| Notes | Page 82: "Lincoln [High School] was the only black high school on the Missouri side [circa 1910s-1920s]. And it had a 'post-graduate' program' besides, which allowed students to stay on an extra two or three years to learn a trade. Many musicians stayed on to play with the band as well." |
