<P>Esteemed colleagues:</P>
<P> </P>
<P>I'm sure our problem with benches disappearing is not unique=
to our school. Many years ago Danny Boone, who was at=
Baylor at that time, attached a bench to each piano with a small=
length of chain. It seemed to work for a while, but I=
don't have any recent history on this. Unfortunately also,=
Danny is no longer with us. Does anybody have any=
experience with chaining benches to piano? or does anyone=
have any other ideas on keeping the benches in practice rooms=
and classrooms?</P>
