Frank Sinatra's Cal Neva Lodge Frank Sinatra’s Cal-Neva Lodge by Steve Fischer Bones Renner was an old time gangster from San Francisco who owned the Cal-Neva Lodge at Crystal Bay on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe. But Bones also owed the IRS $800,000 in back taxes. So Bones asked his friend Wingy Grober if he could pass the ownership of the Cal- Neva, who also, as a result of his sud- den and unexplainable ownership of a casino, ended up with his own set of tax problems. With the IRS after him, Wingy Grober put the Cal-Neva Lodge up for sale. Cal-Neva in the 1930’s On July 13, 1960, the day John F. What also didn’t make the news- Cal-Neva, he really was.

  • Sinatra & Basie & Amos & Andy
    e-misférica 5.2: Race and its Others (December 2008) www.hemisferica.org “You Make Me Feel So Young”: Sinatra & Basie & Amos & Andy by Eric Lott | University of Virginia In 1965, Frank Sinatra turned 50. In a Las Vegas engagement early the next year at the Sands Hotel, he made much of this fact, turning the entire performance—captured in the classic recording Sinatra at the Sands (1966)—into a meditation on aging, artistry, and maturity, punctuated by such key songs as “You Make Me Feel So Young,” “The September of My Years,” and “It Was a Very Good Year” (Sinatra 1966). Not only have few commentators noticed this, they also haven’t noticed that Sinatra’s way of negotiating the reality of age depended on a series of masks—blackface mostly, but also street Italianness and other guises. Though the Count Basie band backed him on these dates, Sinatra deployed Amos ‘n’ Andy shtick (lots of it) to vivify his persona; mocking Sammy Davis Jr. even as he adopted the speech patterns and vocal mannerisms of blacking up, he maneuvered around the threat of decrepitude and remasculinized himself in recognizably Rat-Pack ways. Sinatra’s Italian accents depended on an imagined blackness both mocked and ghosted in the exemplary performances of Sinatra at the Sands. Sinatra sings superbly all across the record, rooting his performance in an aura of affection and intimacy from his very first words (“How did all these people get in my room?”). “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Jilly’s West,” he says, playing with a persona (habitué of the famous 52nd Street New York bar Jilly’s Saloon) that by 1965 had nearly run its course.

The Heart of the Matter: Resident Living Well with Profile: Helen Ramsdell By Lori Shutrump Heart Failure Living to be 105 years old is rare – as rare as Helen Ramsdell, who recently celebrated this monumental birthday. Oh, the changes she has seen! When she was born near Middletown, Ohio, the average life expectancy was 47 years of age, her family home did not have electricity or indoor plumbing, and women did not have the right to vote. “I was the oldest of seven children, and we lived on a farm with all kinds of animals,” she says. “We farmed the land, made our own maple syrup, milked the cows by hand, and every Saturday I cleaned and refilled the oil lamps.” She smiles and points to the lamp in her apartment, “That was my aunt’s courting lamp. If it was on, the boys were welcome to come over.” Helen’s keen mind easily retrieves memories from a century ago. “We had a tank outside that collected rain water for cooking and bathing, and we took our baths on “Oh, the changes Saturday night in a metal tub in the kitchen,” she says.
