Photograph article dated February 27, 1961 partially reads, "A branch of one of the state's oldest professional organizations continues to function quietly but actively in the West San Fernando Valley. It is the West Valley Branch of the Music Teachers Association of California, an organization consisting of private and public school music teachers. 'Our goal,' said Mrs. Robert Strohl, vice president of the West Valley Branch, 'is to constantly study and improve ourselves so we can, in turn, pass this knowledge on to our students.' Mrs. Strobl, 8612 Balcom Ave., Northridge, said the group follows the modern teacher's creed that 'teaching cannot be stagnant, it must constantly grow and move towards higher goals.' The parent organization was incorporated in 1897, Mrs. Strobl said." Teacher Margaret Strobl works with young pupil, Virginia Daily, 6, of 17803 Raymer St., Northridge.
