  • The Rochester Sentinel 1981
    The Rochester Sentinel 1981 Friday, January 2, 1981 Beth A. Bowen Indianapolis (AP) - Funeral services for Beth A. BOWEN, 62, wife of Indiana’s governor, will be Sunday in Bremen. The popular wife of Gov. Otis R. BOWEN had suffered a chronic bone marriw disease since 1977. She died Thursday. Mrs. Bowen had been hospitalized since Oct. 11, but left briefly Dec. 12, to make her last public appearance at a tribute to the Bowens. The governor is completing his second term in office, prohibited by statute from serving a third term. The governor and the Bowen’s four children were at her side when she died. One of her last wishes was granted just recently when she asked about the possibility of seeing her younges son, Rob, 28, sworn in as a Marshall County judge. Bowen researched the matter and found he could legally hold the swearing-in ceremony in his wife’s hospital room. For the past several weeks, the tovernor has been either at his wife’s bedside or at his official duties. “The last nine or 10 months have been heartbreaking,” he said a few days before his wife’s death. “We were together 42 years.” A veteran campaigner for her husband, a country doctor from Bremen, she was there through Otis Ray BOWEN’s 14 years in the Indiana House of Representatives. Often she was in the House gallery, listening and knitting as Bowen, the House speaker, ran things in the chamber below. “Growing up in a small Indiana town where I lived across from the courthouse and knew everyone, and being a doctor’s wife at Bremen were good training for the wife of a politician.

  • Raoul Walshs Film the Roaring Twenties*
    Zur Problematik cler Interpretation poputirer Kultur: Raoul Walshs Film The Roaring Twenties* Thomas Elsaesser/Winfried Fluck ABSTRACT The article wants to contribute to an ongoing debate about how to define the realistic or critical dimension of artefacts belonging to the realm of popular culture, in the present case, the commercial cinema. While discussions of this kind have often tended to separate out 'serious' films in which social problems are explicitly thematized from those where such issues are conspicuously absent or obfus­ cated, the present essay recognizes no such distinction merely on the grounds of sociological or ideolog­ ical transparency, but argues for a complex and differentiated model, which considers the artefact as a text constituted by a number of discourses whose determinants and structures, contrary to traditional aesthetics, do not necessarily reinforce each other to produce a coherent message. The example chosen is The Roaring Twenties (USA, 1939), directed for Warner Brothers by Raoul Walsh and starring Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Priscilla Lane. While the film clearly belongs to a well-established genre, the gangster film, whose themes and strategies it resumes in a ge<ture that self­ consciously closes an epoch, it is characterized by unusually explicit and numerous references to histori­ cal events and social data. However, a closer analysis of their function and place in the fiction shows that these apparently realistic and critical elements are only socially and ideologically significant, inso­ far as they enter into contact and tension with other levers of signification, where ideology is present only in a mediated form, as dramatically, emotionally, stylistically coded patterns of interaction be­ rween spectator and text.

  • The King Sisters
    THE KING SISTERS : A CHAPTER FROM THE HISTORY OF HARMONY By David W. McCain The recent death of Yvonne King of the King Sisters prompted me once again to observe that when you trace “the history of harmony” back to its roots, those roots more often than not end with the names of Martha, Connie and Vet Boswell. Like the Andrews Sisters, the King Sisters admired and were inspired by the Boswells and went on to develop their own particular blend and style which carried them to well-deserved fame and fortune. The rich harmonies of the King Sisters are a delight to experience, and to me they are the most musically interesting female harmony group after the Boswells. A quartette, the King Sisters had a full-bodied blend reminiscent of the Boswells. (The Boswells always sound like more than three voices to me because of the heaviness and depth of both Martha and Connie’s contralto lines). It’s interesting to note that in 1944 Connie (by then she was “Connee”) told John Lucas for a Downbeat cover story that originally the Boswells had wanted to form a quartette, and how they had searched for someone to take the fourth part! Lucas rather understatedly surmised, “Fortunately, I think, they found no one who satisfied their requirements.” Maybe their search for a fourth voice was because they had been raised on the barbershop quartette singing of Mama and Papa Boswell with their Uncle Charlie and Aunt Mattie (two brothers who had married two sisters), so the thought of creating a vocal trio was at first rather foreign to them.
