At the recent Champaign County Retired Teachers Association meeting, members learned of the changes in 200 years to the music of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Janet Ebert, who has studied the National Anthem for over 50 years, played examples for the group. Pictured are Ebert at the piano with Champaign County Retired Teachers Association President-Elect Karen Headlee.
