Reporter the search for bodies was overshadowed today by the discovery of four large pieces of wreckage. Officials said they were sure the pieces were from the plane. The survey vessel measured one object as being about 30 feet long and 15 feet wide. Depending on what they are, it could be the first breakthrough in the hunt for the vital black boxes.

A. , as well as physical descriptions for identification. A special lab is staffed by indonesian Forensic Experts to conduct the tests, even as they work the quest to apportion blame is getting into gear.

But i could see the pain in his eyes. And i knew it hurt. I think bobby told me once, he said, if the only thing i o had to do was play football, it would be easy. But all of this racial stuff is just very hard to deal with. Axelrod, of course, that was nfl alltime great jim brown. Our james brown joins us now. J. B. , let me ask you about Bobby Mitchell. I would imagine there would be some bitterness there. Is he a bitter guy . He is not. One would not fault him if he were to be bitter. Hes endured an awful lot, but quite frankly, every challenge that hes met hes overcome. Its just not in his d. N. A. To be a bitter man.

Hes got an idea how to get more American Students hooked on music and in the process teach them some history. Never mind what you are hearing. This is not music class. Yes, professional drummer Jerome Jennings is in charge, but its more of a history lesson. Jazz music is exactly the same as a democracy. Its very important for the cultural jazz to be passed on to people who are young.

They need to see this. Axelrod the curriculum called let freedom swing aims to connect the dots between music and chapters of american history, like the civil rights movement. I really liked it. They did a very wonderful performance in the school and i love them coming. Axelrod its the brain child of jazz legend Wynton Marsalis. Do you think the kids you reach are being educated in a way that, if this program didnt exist, they wouldnt be getting it . They definitely wouldnt get it. You go to kindergarten, first grade, kids still singing, drawing, writing stories. Now go to seventh grade. What happened to all that singing . Axelrod marsalis and his musicians figure if they grab the kids by their ears, their hearts and minds will follow. The performance i just saw was incredibly spectacular awesome. Axelrod what youre giving these kids is an understanding that jazz is intricately and intimately linked to all part of our history. All parts of our history, our ways of being, the skill of improvisation helps you through your life, the ability to communicate with other people. Swinging teaches you to get along with others and recognize their creativity. And the blues helps you to come to grips with the inevitable tragedy that is the part of life. Axelrod Wynton Marsalis hopes to make this Program Available for every urban School District in the country within five years. And thats the cbs evening news for tonight. Later on cbs, 48 hours.
