Issues of Gender in Muscle Beach Party (1964) Joan Ormrod, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by E-space: Manchester Metropolitan University's Research Repository Issues of Gender in Muscle Beach Party (1964) Joan Ormrod, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Muscle Beach Party (1964) is the second in a series of seven films made by American International Pictures (AIP) based around a similar set of characters and set (by and large) on the beach. The Beach Party series, as it came to be known, rode on a wave of surfing fever amongst teenagers in the early 1960s. The films depicted the carefree and affluent lifestyle of a group of middle class, white Californian teenagers on vacation and are described by Granat as, "…California's beautiful people in a setting that attracted moviegoers. The films did not 'hold a mirror up to nature', yet they mirrored the glorification of California taking place in American culture." (Granat, 1999:191) The films were critically condemned. The New York Times critic, for instance, noted, "…almost the entire cast emerges as the dullest bunch of meatballs ever, with the old folks even sillier than the kids..." (McGee, 1984: 150) Despite their dismissal as mere froth, the Beach Party series may enable an identification of issues of concern in the wider American society of the early sixties. The Beach Party films are sequential, beginning with Beach Party (1963) advertised as a "musical comedy of summer, surfing and romance" (Beach Party Press Pack). Beach Party was so successful that AIP wasted no time in producing six further films; Muscle Beach Party (1964), Pajama Party (1964) Bikini Beach (1964), Beach Blanket Bingo (1965) How to Stuff a Wild Bikini (1965) and The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini (1966). -

Road to Oregon Written by Dr
The Road to Oregon Written by Dr. Jim Tompkins, a prominent local historian and the descendant of Oregon Trail immigrants, The Road to Oregon is a good primer on the history of the Oregon Trail. Unit I. The Pioneers: 1800-1840 Who Explored the Oregon Trail? The emigrants of the 1840s were not the first to travel the Oregon Trail. The colorful history of our country makes heroes out of the explorers, mountain men, soldiers, and scientists who opened up the West. In 1540 the Spanish explorer Coronado ventured as far north as present-day Kansas, but the inland routes across the plains remained the sole domain of Native Americans until 1804, when Lewis and Clark skirted the edges on their epic journey of discovery to the Pacific Northwest and Zeb Pike explored the "Great American Desert," as the Great Plains were then known. The Lewis and Clark Expedition had a direct influence on the economy of the West even before the explorers had returned to St. Louis. Private John Colter left the expedition on the way home in 1806 to take up the fur trade business. For the next 20 years the likes of Manuel Lisa, Auguste and Pierre Choteau, William Ashley, James Bridger, Kit Carson, Tom Fitzgerald, and William Sublette roamed the West. These part romantic adventurers, part self-made entrepreneurs, part hermits were called mountain men. By 1829, Jedediah Smith knew more about the West than any other person alive. The Americans became involved in the fur trade in 1810 when John Jacob Astor, at the insistence of his friend Thomas Jefferson, founded the Pacific Fur Company in New York. -

I argue that this cycle of film production was marked by a diversity of musical genres, styles and types. Not only rock ’n’ roll, but rhythm ’n’ blues, folk, rockabilly, swing, West Coast jazz, bebop, Latin music such as the mambo, the rhumba, the cha cha chá, and Caribbean calypsos were all heavily featured in these films. This study is carried out through a focus on the temporal arrange- ments – fads, cycles, trends – that govern serial production and consumption of movies and popular music. Following Philip Ennis’ thesis that rock ’n’ roll is best defined by its ability to ‘crossover’ musi- cal boundaries – to move, for example, across the pop, country, and rhythm ’n’ blues charts – I argue that the film industry chose not to overly limit the music it had on offer and instead provided a var- ied package, some of which, it expected, would crossover and appeal to diverse and capricious teenage tastes.

Copyright © 1982 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Dakota Resources: The Haynes Photograph Collection at the Montana Historical Society DELORES J. MORROW City newspapers and national photographic journals of the late nineteenth century referred to F. Jay Haynes as "the professor," "the Palace Car operator," and the "official photographer of the Northern Pacific Railroad." Today, Haynes is best known for his magnificent photographs of Yellowstone National Park and best remembered as the "official photographer of Yellowstone." He has not yet acquired the national reputation of such contemporar- ies as Carleton Watkins and William Henry Jackson, but his work survives as testimony to his artistry as both a documentary and landscape photographer. Frank Jay Haynes, or, as he preferred to call himself in his business dealings, F. Jay Haynes, was born on 28 October 1853 in Saline, Michigan. His father, Levi Hasbrouck Haynes, operated a mercantile business in which young Haynes received his first work experience. Soon after the financial panic of 1873, the family business failed and F. Jay Haynes had to seek other employment. He worked for a short time as a traveling salesman and then Copyright © 1982 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. 66 South Dakota History secured an apprenticeship with S. C. Graham, a photographer and illustration salesman in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. Haynes learned the basics of photography from Graham before accepting a new position in April 1875 with another Wisconsin photographer, William H. Lockwood. While working for Lockwood, Haynes became convinced that he could procure a living by practicing the "photographic art." He received encouragement from his sister Ella Henderson, the wife of a hardware-store owner in Moorhead, Minnesota, and in Sep- tember 1876, Haynes moved to Moorhead to open his own studio. -

The first step was to perform archaeological test excavations on the Fort Fair Haven site in order to confirm that we had, in fact, located the 1862 historical site of Fort Fair Haven. Once we successfully determined that it was indeed the fort, then the second step was to analyze these findings and use them in conjunction with archival research in order to better understand what kind of actual defensive function it could have provided. -
