Whereas the be -bop era, the West Coast school and Miles Davis' cool school were previous topics of prime discussion and derision, the "new thing" movement on the East Coast, is the current favorite topic under critical scrutiny. Avant -garde music is the minorist of the minority groups in jazz. Its high priest is John Coltrane, who disposessed Omette Coleman as the most talked about player. While other forms of jazz have reached a level of sanity, the avant -garde players constantly seek recognition. Their works are represented on Blue Note, Atlantic and Impulse, but Coltrane is probably the only one in the lot whose records mean anything to dealers. The avant -gardists have even formed their own organization, the Jazz Composers Guild, with the intention of recording their own works and selling them through subscriptions and selected jazz stores.

Lyons, like many other bulk operators, has found that many service station owners don't want another piece of equipment which must be moved inside the service area to be locked up at night- While many appreciate the fact that their own employ- ees and customers enjoy peanut, ball gum and confection treats, they are simply unwilling to put up with the extra labor involved. When this attitude confronted Lyons repeatedly, he went to a hardware store and bought sev- eral lengths of heavy chain. Aft- er that, when a service station operator opposed wheeling bulk - vending machines in at closing time, Lyons offered instead to chain the machines to some per- manent point where they could remain 24 hours a day. This proposal, Lyons dis- covered, was immediately ac- cepted by 9 out of 10 service sta- tion operators. Many admitted that they missed the usual hand- ful of peanuts during the day, and would gladly provide the lo- cation if no more handling prob- lems were involved.
