Layton Born to a mine millwright in 1899, Alvin Layton spent most of his childhood in Denver, Colorado. He began playing violin at a young age, participating in, and occasionally wining, amateur vaudeville nights in San Francisco and Denver. At the age 15 he began his first professional music career, accompanying silent movies at the Curran Theater, Boulder, Colorado, and playing in a group at the Boulderado Hotel. Around the age of 18, he was already conducting, coordinating performances of, and selecting music for the Curran Theater Orchestra; this responsibility led to his collection of silent film music. In the early to mid twenties he also performed for traveling vaudeville chains in Pueblo, Fort Collins, and Denver, Colorado, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Cheyenne, Wyoming. In the late twenties Layton’s musical career was nearly put on hiatus due to the advent of sound in movies. He continued to play in Laramie, Wyoming, however, as an accompanist for one of the last vaudeville theatres until 1932. Also during this time he taught private lessons to supplement his income. His father became ill in 1934, and Layton moved to Henderson, Colorado, to be near his family. While in Henderson, Layton created a music program in the rural school district, organized adult community orchestras, and started a dance orchestra that played at grange halls. In November 1942 Layton was drafted by the Air Force to serve in World War II. Due to his friendship with Glenn Miller, which had flourished during his Boulder performance days while Miller was a University student, 1922-23, Miller designated Layton leader of the Post Orchestra. He was discharged in 1944. Upon his return to Colorado, he resumed teaching for the Public School System. Changes in the structure of the music program, however, persuaded him to retire in 1948, whereupon he did mission work in Alabama for a year, and then built a house in Brighton, Colorado, and became a dairy farmer. Around his second year of farming Layton hurt his left hand and was never able to play the violin to the level of proficiency that he demanded of himself. He spent the rest of his life farming (until his retirement in 1974) and traveling the world. Alvin Layton died in December, 1987. - Page 3 - The Alvin G.

Perhaps the most important influences on my early thinking about this topic came from Paweł Frelik and Larry McCaffery, with whom I shared a rousing desert hike in the foothills of Borrego Springs. After an evening of food, drink, and lively exchange, I had the long-overdue epiphany to channel my training in musical performance more directly into my academic pursuits. The early support, friendship, and collegiality of these two had a tremendously positive effect on the arc of my scholarship; knowing they believed in the project helped me pencil its first sketchy contours—and ultimately see it through to the end.

  • China Naval Modernization: Implications for U.S
    China Naval Modernization: Implications for U.S. Navy Capabilities—Background and Issues for Congress (name redacted) Specialist in Naval Affairs April 25, 2018 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL33153 China Naval Modernization: Implications for U.S. Navy Capabilities Summary The question of how the United States should respond to China’s military modernization effort, including its naval modernization effort, is a key issue in U.S. defense planning and budgeting. China has been steadily building a modern and powerful navy since the early to mid-1990s. China’s navy has become a formidable military force within China’s near-seas region, and it is conducting a growing number of operations in more-distant waters, including the broader waters of the Western Pacific, the Indian Ocean, and waters around Europe. Observers view China’s improving naval capabilities as posing a challenge in the Western Pacific to the U.S. Navy’s ability to achieve and maintain control of blue-water ocean areas in wartime— the first such challenge the U.S. Navy has faced since the end of the Cold War. More broadly, these observers view China’s naval capabilities as a key element of a broader Chinese military challenge to the long-standing status of the United States as the leading military power in the Western Pacific. China’s naval modernization effort encompasses a wide array of platform and weapon acquisition programs, including anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs), anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs), submarines, surface ships, aircraft, unmanned vehicles (UVs), and supporting C4ISR (command and control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) systems.
