Honorary Members PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE 1959 - Jesse Crawford From now until the February issue, there will be some confusion throughout 1960 - Famy Wurlitzer the magazine with references to both ATOE and ATOS. Articles already written 196 l - Mel Doner and set in type will not be changed, nor need they be. Although our name is 1962 - Leonard MacClain changed to American Theatre Organ Society , we will remain as enthusiastic as 1963 - Eddie Dunstedter 1964 - Reginald Foort ever . or more so. We expect, in the normal course of correspondence, to use 1965 - Dan Barton up the old letterheads in one way or another and only the most official will demand 1966-W. "Tiny" James the new name. 1967 - Erwin A. Young, Jr . You will find in this issue the addresses of three people who are interested 1968 - Richard C. Simonton in forming new chapters. In future issues, there will be more. There are new 1969 - Judd Walton independent theatre organ clubs; we will print news from them also. We must EDITORIAL STAFF concentrate on theatre pipe organ until all known pipes left have friends near Editor - George Thompson them. There is a lot of action going on, but you must write us about it as we Associate Editors - Ray Brubacher can't print a thing until an article and pictures (if any) are submitted. Lloyd Klos New logos are being designed by our members for our magazine and st~tionery. Peg Nielsen New sets of by-laws are waiting only for the official name change to become Editor-Emeritus - W. "Stu" Green Publications Director - Don Lockwood effective. Next year should show greater impetus for the theatre pipe organ than Advertising Manager - Dewey Cagle ever before with more organs playing and talent more abundant.

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.
