Volume 48 - No. 41

By Friedrich Gomez

We are about to leave our present 2018 world and journey backward in time. Don’t be left behind.

Come with us on our imaginary Time Machine. Now, close your eyes for a moment . . . and then slowly re-open them.

It is suddenly 1950s America again and you are about to re-live historyin-the-making.

a stool, behind a modest desk, with the large letters “AB” on the desk front. Workmen pace about in frenzied movements as three large ABC television cameras swing and reposition themselves as a stage foreman directs them in a run-through rehearsal of sorts. The slender show-host still fidgets with pencil and paper, occasionally looking up from his notes -- this time he sees a program director approaching him from his right side, “Mr. Clark, singer Paul Anka is here.” Dick Clark smiles, flashing a mega-watt set of teeth and acknowledges with a crisp, “Thank you.”

It is August 5, 1957, a particularly warm day outside “Studio B,” which is located in West Philadelphia, on 4548 Market Street. It is an auspicious day -- the debut of a new concept for “live” television viewers called, “American Bandstand.” The new show’s host, Dick Clark, a 27-yearold transplant from Mount Vernon, New York, appears almost too young of age for such an important position – even boyishly youngerlooking than his chronological years reveal. So much so, that his unusual youthfulness and bubbly personality would later earn him a world-renowned nickname:

“America’s Oldest Teenager.”

Unknown to him at the time, in just two short years, in a surprise television tribute to him in 1959 on “This Is Your Life,” host Ralph Edwards would call him, “America’s youngest star-maker.” That’s how meteoric his rise to fame would be.

However, on this summer’s day in 1957, Dick Clark’s thoughts were fully occupied on various concepts on how he would proceed in hosting his first “live” American Bandstand show and its requirements of adlibbing away from printed cue cards. It was only min-

utes away now and it would be “showtime.”

Standing erect, Dick Clark surveyed his dance floor one final time before heading off to welcome American Bandstand’s historic first guest, Paul Anka. Dick Clark’s strengths were that he was a ‘hands-on’ man who knew the desired format for his new brainchild, calculating the dance floor dimensions in his mind one last time, surveying its potential as well as limitations, for a wide television-viewing audience of perhaps millions. Studio B measured exactly 80’ x 42’ x 24’ but appeared much smaller due to the number of props, television cameras, and risers that were going to be used for the show’s premiere. Clark’s brain was firing on all cylinders as he calculated the need to have as much physical space for the teenagers to dance around the floor and yet enough floor space for the three RCA TK10 black-and-white television cameras to roam about and survey the dance-action from different angles.

Previous acts of scandal and notoriety on newscasts had brought Dick Clark here, to where he now stood.

It seemed almost too painful to reflect back on -- the embarrassment it brought upon a nation of people. Just the previous year, on July 9, 1956, Bob Horn, the original host of a format simply known as “Bandstand” was fired after a drunk-driving arrest! What height-

The banker saw his old friend Tom, an eighty-year old rancher, in town.

Tom had lost his wife a year or so before and rumor had it that he was marrying a 'mail order' bride.

Being a good friend, the banker asked Tom if the rumor was true.

Tom assured him that it was. The banker then asked Tom the age of his new bride to be.

Tom proudly said, 'She'll be twenty-one in November.'

Now the banker, being the wise man that he was, could see that the sexual appetite of a young woman could not be satisfied by an eightyyear- old.

Wanting his old friend's remaining years to be happy the banker tactfully suggested that Tom should

ened the spectacle was that Bob Horn’s Philadelphia television station (WFIL-TV Channel 6) along with co-owner, Walter Annenberg, of The Philadelphia Inquirer, had jointly run a series on drunk driving. Adding further insult to injury was that Bandstand host, Bob Horn, was not only arrested as a drunkdriver, but he was allegedly linked to a prostitution ring and, consequently, was brought up on morals charges. The shame of it all was almost too overwhelming.

It all started back in late September of 1952, when a music-format show first premiered locally on Philadelphia television (WFIL-TV Channel 6), under the name “Bandstand.” It was hosted by Bob Horn as part of his radio show of the same name. Bandstand had no dancing, rather it only featured short music videos (a forerunner of popular music-video formats, such as MTV, etc.), with an occasional guest to interview. This format quickly caused Horn to feel restricted, so he changed the concept so that it featured teenagers dancing to records, while on camera. It was not an original idea, but a borrowed one, which Bob Horn parlayed to greater success. The DJ playing the records for Horn is none other than Dick Clark, who sometimes substituted for Horn when he was away on vacation.

Horn’s shocking dethronement from Bandstand positioned Dick Clark as his successor and, subsequently, Dick Clark’s eventual consider getting a young hired hand to help him out on the ranch, knowing nature would take its own course.

Tom thought this was a good idea and said he would look for one that afternoon.

About four months later, the banker ran into Tom in town again.

'How's the new wife?', asked the banker.

Tom proudly said, 'Good - she's pregnant.'

The banker, happy that his sage advice had worked out, continued, 'And how's the hired hand?'

Without hesitating, Tom said, 'She's pregnant also.'

Don't ever underestimate old Guys

I went to the liquor store Tuesday afternoon on my bicycle, bought a bottle of Jack Daniels and put it in the bicycle basket.

As I was about to leave, I thought to myself that if I fell off the bicycle, the bottle would break.

So I drank all the Jack Daniels before I cycled home.

It turned out to be a very good decision, because I fell off my bicycle seven times on the way home.

coronation would see him catapulted to American Bandstand immortality.

He would become the replacement host under this new broadened name.

Dick Clark was well aware of these ugly past events, however he needed to clear his mind and focus on his present duties. In welcoming singer Paul Anka to the set, Dick Clark was upbeat in planning for Anka to lip-synch his new song, “Diana,” which would become a monster hit across the planet.

The song “Diana” was so powerful in its wide-spread popularity that it not only made Paul Anka an “instant super star,” it skyrocketed to #1 on both the Canadian and U. S. music charts and still remains, to this day, one of the best selling singles ever by a Canadian recording artist in history. A street in Ottawa, Canada would eventually be named Paul Anka Drive and Ottawa’s City Council would come to proclaim August 28 as “Paul Anka Day.” Dick Clark’s debut show proves to be an immediate ratings smash.

American Bandstand would also be the 16-year-old Canadian singer’s first national TV exposure, making Paul Anka a global heartthrob in the process. Anka would become famous for other hit songs such as, “Lonely Boy,” and “Put Your Head on My Shoulder,” to name just two more gigantic examples.

Interestingly, Paul Anka would remain a Canadian citizen until September 6, 1990 when he formally became a naturalized citizen of Yesterday my son e-mailed me again, asking why I didn't do something useful with my time.

“Like, me sitting around the pool and drinking Lemonade is not a good thing?” I asked.

My "doing-something-useful" seems to be his favorite topic of conversation.

He was "only thinking of me", he said and suggested that I go down to the Senior Center and join something.

I did this and when I got home last night, I decided to play a prank on him.

I e-mailed him and told him that I had joined a Parachute Club.

He replied, "Mother, are you nuts?

You are 78 years old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?”

I told him that I got a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to him.

He immediately telephoned me and yelled, "Good grief, Mom, where are your glasses?

This is a Membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.”

I calmly replied, "Oh my, I think I'm in real trouble then, because I signed up for five jumps a week!!”

The line went quiet and his friend picked up the phone and said that

the United States.

Though Dick Clark was not a tall man -- standing at an average height of 5’ 9” -- he, nevertheless, towered over the Canadian songbird, Anka, who appeared miniaturized at only 5’ 4.” Subsequent guests made viewers see Dick Clark as tall on some occasions, then of average height in other encounters, and then short again, depending on who he was interviewing at the time on AB (American Bandstand). Alongside such notables as Fats Domino (5’ 4”), James Brown (5’ 6”), Neil Sedaka (5’ 5”), Paul Simon (5’ 3”) and Connie Francis at only 5’ 1” – Clark at times seemed massive on black and white TV consoles across America. Other times he had audiences guessing again when he stood alongside the likes of Smokey Robinson (6’), Chubby Checker (6’), and Chuck Berry at 6’ 2,” all of whom relegated Dick Clark back to diminutive stature.

Despite Dick Clark’s boyish good looks and devastating charm, this congenial exterior belied his true genius, uncanny talents and hidden aggressive ambition. Clark had pitched the new American Bandstand format relentlessly to the television network executives, breaking down barriers nonstop till they finally gave in. Though young in years, and relatively inexperienced, he made up for these discrepancies with a fire-and-brim-

•••• John, who lived in the north of England, decided to go golfing in Scotland with his buddy Shawn, so they loaded up John's minivan and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible downpour so they pulled into a nearby farm and asked the attractive lady who answered the door if they could spend the night.

"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained, "and I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let you stay in my house."

"Don't worry." John said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the barn and if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light."

The lady agreed and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the night. Come morning, the weather had cleared so they got on their way and enjoyed a great weekend of golf.

But about nine months later , John got an unexpected letter from an attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out but he finally deter-

stone passion for his ideas.

Dick Clark was born Richard Augustus Wagstaff “Dick” Clark, Jr. on November 30, 1929, the son of a sales manager for radio stations. During his high school years, his only sibling brother, Bradley, was killed in the Battle of the Bulge during World War II. He rarely spoke of it, but it was a haunting loss which he carried, quietly, throughout his lifetime. He was far from being a star student, attaining average grades in high school, but only because nothing caught his intellect to sufficiently motivate him. Except the media of radio, which caught his fancy even prior to his teen years. The radio waves beckoned him at such an early age as if fate were extending her hand in recognizing a hidden genius. A young Dick Clark, of only 10 years of age, succumbed to its allure, deciding – while still only in prepuberty -- to pursue it as a career.

And he did. Little did the world know at the time that such a seedling was being planted that would someday take root and revolutionize the airwaves of both sight and sound as seldom before seen in the history of broadcasting.

As a teenager he worked in the mailroom of radio station WRUN in 1945. As luck would have it, the station was owned by his uncle and managed by his father, Richard Clark. He was soon promoted to

weatherman and then became news announcer. He was on his way.

He would attend Syracuse University in New York, graduating in 1951 with a degree in advertising and a minor in radio. At one time he went under the name of Dick Clay while employed at television station WKTV in Utica, New York.

His very first television-hosting job was on “Cactus Dick and the Santa Fe Riders,” a country-western music show. It wasn’t until 1952 at radio station WFIL, where he now stood, that he permanently adopted his handle of “Dick Clark.” It was here at WFIL where he would become successor to Bob Horn, after the host of Bandstand was brought down by scandal which, essentially, ended Bob Horn’s promising career. Horn was on the precipice of great success before it slipped from his fingertips. Bob Horn had knocked on the golden door of opportunity, the door opened for him, but it was Dick Clark who walked through it. From that situation of sordid and shameful intrigue, the better man, fortunately, prevailed to change history for the better.

The eventual blossoming of Dick Clark’s American Bandstand would prove to be much more than just a hit television show – it would prove to be nothing less than a cultural phenomenon. American Bandstand succeeded in capturing a slice of Americana and defined who we were as a youthful nation. It showed the world a glimpse of how

an emerging American culture – young teenagers fresh off the streets of Philadelphia, U.S.A -chose to express themselves in a vibrant celebration of both song and dance, the two quintessential elements which unite all humankind since the dawn of human civilization. But this was more than just a dance program, it was a keyhole peek at young American teenagers who were a composite of an emerging new country – they were America’s future generation. They would someday morph into America’s adult population, voting and setting new cultural values – this, indeed, was a slice of Dick Clark’s Americana. It was history-in-themaking.

The “live” television show would prove to be so powerful in its impact on a nationwide viewing audience that it would launch Dick Clark’s popularity to stratospheric heights, making him a media mogul, as well as one of the most recognizable icons in television’s long and storied history,

The timing for television’s American Bandstand was immaculate. After all, America had created rock ‘n’ roll music, so it seemed only appropriate that America should showcase it for the world to see. But not just showcase the music, but afford a peek through the lenses of television of an uninhibited new love-affair of American kids celebrating out on the dance floor and embracing their own kind

of music -- exclusively American in origin – which they referred to as: “Rock ‘n’ Roll.”

But it wasn’t all a bed of roses for this new, revolutionary music.

There was a tremendous hatemovement from the established generation of adults. Not all, but pervasive enough to make its presence known. In our cultural review mirror, American Bandstand had an uphill fight along its eventual path to great success. During the show’s lifetime, it showcased over 10,000 live rock ‘n’ roll performances by musicians and singers who, otherwise, were generally not welcomed on TV at the time. This movement against rock ‘n’ roll became known, simply, as “anti-rock.”

In an exclusive 1990 Rolling Stone magazine interview with Dick Clark, interviewer, Henry Schipper, pointed out that Dick Clark’s American Bandstand performances were shocking to the general audiences in the early beginning stages.

As Clark, himself, conceded “I was roundly criticized for being in and around rock and roll music at its inception. It was the devil’s music; it would make your teeth fall out and your hair turn blue, whatever the hell. You get through that.”

It was no secret that the era was full of adults who openly hated rock ‘n’ roll music, including politicians, ministers, even older songwriters

On October 4, at 7:30 a.m., a City of Carlsbad Police Officer attempted to stop the driver of a rented, 2016 Nissan Sentra, at Poinsettia Lane near Interstate 5 for driving in the median.

The driver failed to yield and the officer pursued the driver.

The driver fled onto northbound Interstate 5.

The driver exited the freeway at Oceanside Boulevard and the Oceanside Police Department was notified about the pursuit.

The driver traveled westbound on Oceanside Boulevard and proceeded north on Coast Highway.

The two additional occupants, 30 and 41-year-old females, were detained and taken to the police station.

The 23-year-old female driver of the sideswiped vehicle was not injured and no additional injuries occurred.

The investigation into the totality of the incident and the associated crimes is ongoing.

Vista Sailor Maintains Undersea Rescue Mission Readiness

A 2006 Rancho Buena Vista High School graduate and Vista, California, native is serving aboard the U. S. Navy’s only capable Undersea Rescue Command at Submarine Squadron 11.

At 7:37 a.m., the driver sideswiped an occupied car on Coast Highway at Mission Avenue and collided with a building located at the northwest corner of the intersection.

Officers detained the driver and two additional vehicle occupants.

After an initial investigation, officers arrested the driver of the vehicle, 26year-old Sonya Labastida of San Diego, for driving under the influence of drugs, for being in possession of stolen property found inside the vehicle and for failing to yield to the officer. Labastida was transported to a local hospital for a complaint of pain.

Proposition ( Yes on 6) is huge and thousands of dollars have already been spent in radio and TV ads and mailed flyers. Those ads are lying to you.

Proposition 6 repeals the gas and car tax signed into law by Governor Brown known as SB 1. It includes language stating any future gas tax increases must be approved by a vote of the people and funds must be spent for specific purposes, not redirected into the General Fund to fund other programs.

Man About Town

I don’t like being lied to.

I don’t think you do either.

That’s why I get very upset when I see the big money corporations and the politicians in Sacramento try and tell you and me that we should vote against Proposition 6.

To put it bluntly, that’s a lot of BS!

Proposition 6, simply stated, is the gas tax repeal initiative. The politicians don’t want to see all that money go away. They don’t want to see you and me save $779 or more per year by opposing the gas and car tax. That $779 plus per year is OUR money!

Not theirs!

We all want Proposition 6 (the gas tax repeal initiative) to pass. The title and heading of this initiative on the ballot is very misleading. Opposition to this

The passage of Proposition 6 will help keep control of our tax dollars with we, the people, rather than the politicians and vested interests of Sacramento.

If you want to keep the politicians hands out of your pockets . . . please vote to Pass Proposition 6!

They’ve earned a rest - though, knowing them, they won’t be spending much time on a rocking chair. They’ll find another business, or start one, and they’ll do well with it, just as they have with The Computer Factory.

Paul has a couple of surgeries to contend with (knee replacements) but once they’re done he’ll be ready to run full steam ahead.

Nome will be anxious for him to get the surgeries over and done with so he can hurry up and heal so the two of them can, once again, go out and conquer this big old world. Good people.

and musicians who viewed the new music as a threat to their own mainstream music sales, which in fact dropped dramatically in some instances. Frank Sinatra openly called Elvis Presley a “rancidsmelling aphrodisiac.” Dick Clark, himself, was verbally attacked as the ring-leader and human sparkplug driving this evil machinery that was corrupting our young American children.

As with many success stories, it was a rocky road strewn with shards of glass along the pathway for the exponents of this new genre of music. It was a different world during the 1950s with a set of opposing values not conducive to this gyrating beat that seemed to have colored folks as pioneers, such as Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Fats Domino, and a galaxy of other rock ‘n’ legends at its core. 1950s America had emerged from the Korean conflict and was now in the midst of a Cold War which attributed to creating a conservative climate in the country. As social historians point out, “The 1950s in the United States are generally considered both socially conservative and highly materialistic in nature.” It was certainly not a time for dramatic change in music -- music which seemed to encourage uninhibited sexual dance movements. As social pundits phrased it, “The 1950s are noted in United States history as a time of compliance, conformity and

He dropped in on his friend Shawn and asked, "Shawn, do you remember that good looking widow on the farm we stayed at on our golf holiday in Scotland about 9 months ago?”

"Yes, I do." said Shawn.

"Did you, er, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?"

"Well, um, yes." Shawn said, a little embarrassed about being found out, "I have to admit that I did."

"And did you happen to give her my name and address instead of telling her your name?"

Shawn's face turned beet red and he said, "Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy I'm afraid I did. Why do you ask?"

"She just died and left me everything."

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly

also, to some extent, creating a backlash of rebellion.”

Rock ‘n’ roll music was a rebellion of sorts, and so was Dick Clark. He was not satisfied with the status quo, namely its stance on segregation. He knew he would have to enter the lion’s den to dangerously challenge mainstream views on segregation, but he also knew that doing the right thing often meant traveling down the most difficult of roads. Young in years, he was nonetheless determined to rectify what he viewed as unjust and intolerable. He was on a crusade, and he would change the lives and views of countless millions who watched and grew up with American Bandstand.

Racial views in 1950s America were deeply trenched in warfare terms: you were either for or against, there was no middle ground. With American Bandstand originally located in Philadelphia, segregation permeated concentrated areas of the city. Bandstand’s flagship station, WFIL, sought a middle ground: to resolve tension they drew on Philadelphia’s interracial music to create an illusion of integration, and having black artists on the show, while still refusing to allow the city’s black teenagers into the studio audience for fear of alienating television viewers and the advertisers who, virtually, underwrote the show’s expenses. But a still-young Dick Clark cannot move mountains, as hard as he might try.

However, in time, he would eventually succeed in his quest. As social

pundits of the time put it, “History goes back and forth with the timing and motives of the integration, but nevertheless, American Bandstand socially impacted teenagers’ opinions regarding race.” There is no question to the legacy he left in his wake. Episodes he hosted were among the first where blacks and whites performed on the same stage and among the first where the live studio audience sat, together for all the world to see – without racial segregation.

But it was only the first year of Dick Clark’s American Bandstand show and he had more immediate projects in his cross-hairs. He had just made a bona fide splash with Paul Anka and television viewers clamored for more! Within six months of going nationwide, AB is picked up by 101 stations with over twenty million viewers glued to their TV-sets.

It is another work day in 1957 when a happy Dick Clark shows up at Studio B and walks gingerly towards a section of his television station he rarely visits. His walk is brisk, reflecting his excitement.

Could the news be true? His footsteps stopped at the station mailroom. Clark’s eyes would behold a beautiful sight and his ears would hear resounding news from the overly-excited mail clerks, all of which sounds like music to him: American Bandstand viewers were speaking to Dick Clark in the form of fan letters, and they were cascading out of huge mail bags! A trend was emerging and like a mighty

woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?'

She again replied, 'Why yes, I do.

I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'

The defense attorney nearly died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said, 'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.'

Months later, on November 1, 1957, Dick Clark would see a changing world around him in the newspapers he read over his morning coffee before work or on the evening news. Some news events seemed to hit very close to home, within the microcosm of his own American Bandstand show. For example, it bothered him over the news regarding President Dwight Eisenhower’s embarrassing apologies the previous month, to the finance minister of Ghana, named Komia Agbeli Gbdemah, after the minister was refused service in a segregated restaurant in Dover, Delaware.

Clark had his own private agenda regarding such flagrant expressions

owed, and have less than you've ever had.

The simple instructions enclosed aren't.

She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'

The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'

groundswell, Dick Clark could clearly see that a momentum was building. He could almost feel and hear the gentle rolling sound of faroff thunder. It was the unmistakable sound of the public’s collective voice, like a broad deep undulation of the ocean, talking, endearing themselves, and reaching out to physically embrace Dick Clark’s new brainchild, American Bandstand! Public reaction was unstoppable, soon mushrooming at an astounding 20,000-to-45,000 fan letters each and every week! Clark had his hand on the pulse of a nation; he had just glimpsed his future, and his adoring fan base gave him pause to reflect: Yes, he now knew – he was on the right course!

The father invited the fiancé to his study for a talk.

"So, what are your plans?" the father asked the young man.

"I am a biblical scholar," he replied.

"A biblical scholar, hmmm?" the father said. "Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in?"

"I will study," the young man replied, "and God will provide for us."

"And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she deserves?" asked the father.

of racial prejudice in his own back yard that he would later rectify once he gained a stronger position from which to negotiate. As a private person, and native New Yorker, he was also horrified over the sports news of his cherished Brooklyn Dodgers announcing their move to Los Angeles. But, on this day in 1957, there was another newsworthy item which catches his attention. He first hears a song called “Do the Bop,” by a young group of Philadelphia kids who call themselves the “Juvenairs” and who sing at street corners, right here in Philly.

Clark would make suggestions to the group but, for the moment, he had bigger fish to fry and left his suggestions as such. This incident would become a historic ‘anklebiter’ that would return to gnaw at Clark in a most unpredictable way.

On December 2, 1957, disaster had struck and Dick Clark was frantic at the studios! The singing group, “Little Anthony & The Imperials,” who had been scheduled to appear that day on his Bandstand show, had suddenly cancelled and Clark was beyond desperate in trying to find a last-minute replacement for his now top-rated network show! A call went out to the local Philadelphia group, the Juvenairs, who were now known as “Danny and the Juniors,” per Clark’s earlier suggestion to them. Their anthem song, “Do the Bop,” had also changed as Clark suggested, to “At the Hop.” The latter suggestion was because Bandstand was a national version of a “sock hop” dance and “At the Hop” seemed a better fit for his show. The emergency fill-in group proves to be a stroke of utter genius! By December 9, 1957, only one week after appearing on American Bandstand, “At the Hop,”

by Danny and the Juniors, hits the Billboard pop charts, and within a month it becomes the No. 1 record in America! Overnight, a small scrawny bunch of school kids who started singing at ages 14 and 15, were suddenly mega-giants worldwide! Other hits would follow such as the ever-popular, “Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay,” “Sometimes,” and “School Boy Romance,” in 1958.

But it was “At the Hop,” the lastminute throw-in song that shocked the music world, selling well over two million copies around the globe in less than 21 days. Almost sixty years after the fact, “At the Hop” remains a quintessential song emblematic of 1950s America and according to Billboard Magazine, today, it remains ranked as the 23rd greatest rock ‘n’ roll song of alltime.

As in the sudden replacement act of Danny and the Juniors, lightning would strike twice in the same place. When scheduled guests, Hank Ballard and the Midnighters, fail to show up to perform their hit song, “The Twist,” on August 6, 1960, Dick Clark’s improvisation goes into over-drive. Clark gets his friend, 19-year-old Chubby Checker (real name, Ernest Evans), to comply with a quick-fix plan.

DC rushes Checker into the studio

and quickly produces a soundtrack of Chubby Checker singing his own version of the twist, along with Checker’s own demonstration of the dance. The visual and audio impact would prove monumental, giving birth to the Twist dance craze and plunging Checker into the world limelight! Checker’s version of the Twist quickly hits the number one mark on Billboard’s Hot 100 on September 19, 1960, where it stayed for one week and set another record as being the only song to reach the number one spot in two different pop charts at the time. Dick Clark had utilized a loophole to legally use the song, via his friend, Chubby Checker. King Records had the licensing rights for the song and Chubby Checker – a client of King Records – had King Records’ permission to sing the song, and he did! Chubby Checker recalls that momentous occasion: “I was only 16 years old when I first met Dick. It was about two years before we did ‘The Twist’ on his American Bandstand show.”

Countless rock ‘n’ roll acts would make their very first national television appearances on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand show. On November 22, 1957 an act by the name of “Tom & Jerry” performed their song, “Hey! Little Schoolgirl.” They would later change their names to “Simon & Garfunkel.”

Like a caravan of legendary giants, glittering stars-to-be would first parade before a national television audience on American Bandstand: Dion and the Belmonts, Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Sonny & Cher, and Neil Diamond as a solo act sings “Solitary Man,” as well as The 5th Dimension singing “Up, Up and Away,” lyrics that would reflect Dick Clark’s meteoric rise to fame.

From Prince to the Beach Boys to Aerosmith, over two-thirds of the artists who would be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, all had their television debuts on Bandstand! A most amazing legacy.

The ‘Midas touch’ seemed to belong to Dick Clark: whatever he chose to touch seemed to turn to pure gold. As a consequence, there began a ‘gold rush’ of sorts from advertisers who wanted a ‘piece of the action’ because on November 10, 1958 American Bandstand becomes the hottest merchandising opportunity on television. Even the sales of Beechnut chewing gum doubles when the company begins buying television advertising space riding on the coattails of Dick Clark’s AB, which has stunned the world in its level of power and phenomenal success.

It would become customary for all of American Bandstand singers to lip-synch their recorded hit songs, the only exception being Jerry Lee

I-15 Traffic Relief

Anyone who regularly drives I-15 in Riverside or northern San Diego County knows bumper-to-bumper traffic can be the norm, especially during rush hour.

The City of Temecula has organized task force meetings called `Move I-15 Through Temecula Valley’ to bring together stakeholders from planning groups and government agencies, including my office. We are happy to be involved and bring whatever state resources we can to the projects.

Highway improvements to reduce congestion are underway or planned all along I-15 in Riverside County. These include the I-15/SR-79 Interchange in Temecula, along with new ramp metering and auxiliary/acceleration lane projects. Lead agencies include Caltrans, Temecula, Corona, Riverside County, and the Riverside County Transportation Commission.

Last year I supported the City of Temecula’s application for a U.S. Department of Transportation Infrastructure & Rebuilding America (INFRA) grant, in support of the improvement project for the French Valley Parkway/Interstate 15 interchange. I have also sponsored legislation mandating that highway funding be committed in the regular budgeting process and not an added tax, and that

Your story is so very special and touches my heart. As a teenager I had severe progressive myopia and wore increasingly thick glasses that looked like the bottom of Coca Cola bottles. I was called "legally blind." As a young married woman, hard contact lenses were available and made a huge difference for me...then soft lenses came out...Hurray! Then I got so old that cataracts formed and thanks be to God and modern science, I have had amazing vision without glasses for years following surgery. Yes, it does seem like a miracle.

Your story suggests that through your blindness, you found yourself and found a way to help others face some of life's problems. I hope someone will read this to you because as a grandmother, great-grandmother of 17 and also a great-great-grandmother I want you to know how much I admire you (as the old saying goes...) for making lemonade out of lemons. I am so proud of you. Please know that this article was incredibly touching, so rewarding, so helpful...and on and on...

Recently I attended a meeting with San Diego County Tribal governments and SANDAG (SD Assoc. of Governments) and have been receiving complaints from many constituents and local tribal governments about congestion along I-15 in north San Diego County. With thousands of new homes planned, that congestion will soon get much worse. I will be forwarding all complaints to the San Diego Association of Governments for consideration when SANDAG’s Regional Plan is updated next year. If you would like to comment, please contact me at: Assemblymember.waldron@assembly.ca.gov Our quality of life and our economic well-being depend on I-15. As our main north/south transportation artery, I-15 must be upgraded to keep pace with our growing population.

Friedrich Loves the Police!

Early one evening, a few weeks ago, there was an Escondido Police car parked in my apartment complex investigating an incident and interviewing a few residents. At the time I was carrying my laundry to the laundry room and (being the nosey sort that I am) kept looking at the black-andwhite vehicle nearby as I made my way to do my weekly wash. One of the officers approached me and said, "If you have a few minutes, I'd like to talk to you."

Regarding his request to talk to me I said "Sure, let me put my laundry basket on top of the machines and we can talk."

We both walked outside the laundromat into the crisp night air. I could see his cruiser parked about 80' away. He turned to face me and asked, "So your Friedrich Gomez? Well, I'm a great fan of yours. I love your articles! And I just love the way you write!"

I was completely thunderstruck and for a moment, completely at a loss for words! Still stunned, I managed to say, "Well, thank you very much. That means a lot to me!"

I was completely unaware that copies of The Paper are dropped off each week at the Escondido Police Department.

I never knew that.

Lewis on March 18, 1958 who brought the house down with three rousing “live” renditions of “Great Balls Of Fire,” “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On,” and “Breathless.” He would remain the lone exception to the lip-synch rule.

All others would have to abide by this rule and some did not like it.

When Pink Floyd lead singer, Syd Barrett, appeared on American Bandstand on October 24, 1967, high on drugs, he refuses to lip-sync the band’s hit song “Arnold Layne,” live on AB. Instead, at one point, he defiantly stares into the camera lens.

America’s unabashed favorite show host, Dick Clark, is not amused.

The resulting negative public backlash forces the group to cancel its first U. S. tour. It happens again, on May 3, 1980, when the group “Public Image, Ltd.,” appears on AB. Against his will, lead singer, John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols), refuses to fully comply with the lip-synch rule by ridiculing and lip-synching as badly as possible and even leading much of the audience members onto the stage. Again, such ordeals would take its toll and chip away at the band’s potential, eventually eroding their public appeal and sending them into relative obscurity.

They could have been much more without their foolish pranks on America’s most beloved show.

Dick Clark had his favorites and such performers found their way back on several occasions. Freddy “Boom Boom” Cannon holds the record for the most appearances on American Bandstand establishing an unbelievable record of 110 appearances. No one even remotely comes close to this unprecedented mark, there is not even a close second -- nothing on the radar even blips a close contender.

Freddy Cannon, born Frederick Anthony Picariello, Jr. on December 4, 1936 became an international hit with such songs as “Palisades Park,” “Tallahassee Lassie,” and “Way Down Yonder In New Orleans,” to give just a few examples. Cannon always made Dick Clark laugh on and off camera with his true-life episodes which always knocked one out of the ball park. The singer often spoke of his run-in with Elvis Presley at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. “He almost killed me!” Cannon would relate.

Wanting to impress his friends with his karate skills, Elvis grabbed Cannon and flipped him like a coin, landing him flat on his back! “I swear, he almost broke my back!”

Cannon recalls. In his only way of clumsy retaliation, Cannon says, “I grabbed his pants when falling again and I ripped them! He had on a pair of really expensive suede pants.” After pausing a bit as if exhausted by retelling the story, Cannon says softly, as if lost in deep thought: “I still have that fabric somewhere in the house that I ripped right off him. It’s probably worth something.”

One of features of the show was a

segment called “Rate-a-Record” during which audience members gave their opinions of songs that were played. It was an extremely popular part of the show which popularized the phrase across America: “It’s got a good beat and you can’t dance to it!”

Dick Clark would go on to become prominent in other television ventures through his Dick Clark Productions Company, but he will forever be enshrined in the public’s mind as host of American Bandstand, the crown jewel of his achievements. On April 18, 2012, at age 82, Dick Clark passed away from a heart attack. His cremated ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean, perhaps a fitting repository for the man who set a nation of people into perpetual motion and dancing to the rhythmic sounds called rock ‘n’ roll. The ocean will forever move and flow as long as there is a good Earth that abides with it.

Likewise, Dick Clarks’ remains will forever be part of the deep blue, wherein he will move with the restless waves, as if in rhythm to the eternal music he helped promote.

Following his death, U. S. President Barack Obama said, “With American Bandstand, he introduced decades’ worth of viewers to the music of our times. He reshaped the television landscape forever as a creative and innovative producer.

And, of course, for 40 years, we welcomed him into our homes to ring in the New Year.” Motown founder, Berry Gordy spoke of Clark’s biggest impact not just on music, but in the quality of life itself: “Dick was always there for me and Motown, even before there was a Motown. He was an entrepreneur, a visionary and a major force in changing pop culture and ultimately influencing integration.”

Paul Anka, who was the first-ever performer on American Bandstand, reflected back on what it all meant: “This was a time when there was no youth culture – he created it.” Los Angeles Times writer, Geoff Boucher, states: “With the possible exception of Elvis Presley, Dick Clark was considered by many to be the person most responsible for the bonfire spread of rock ‘n’ roll across the country in the late 1950s, making him a household name.”

Dick Clark always deflected compliments. He once summed up his remarkable genius and pioneering work down to the simplest of terms: “I played records, the kids danced, and America watched.”

But if I could inscribe an open letter to him, it would read thusly: “Dear Mr. Clark, you were far, far more than that. With all due respects, sir, you were a family member to all of us and you came into our homes – some poor, some modest, and some opulent – and much of America grew up with you. We danced in our living rooms, and sang out loud with you on your precious American Bandstand show. No, sir. You were

Historically Speaking

by Tom Morrow

The Man Who Nearly Won The War Singlehandedly

He was a hero of World War II, but no one knew about him until years after the fighting stopped. He was the leading codebreaker at Britain’s highly secret Bletchley Park.

William Gordon Welchman’s crypticbusting actions during the 1940s cut short the War by at least two years, yet his contributions remained a secret until well into the so-called “Cold War” of the ‘50s through the ‘80s.

Welchman, who was born June 15, 1906, in England, was a mathematician, university professor, and author, but today he is remembered as the key codebreaker at Bletchley Park.

After the war Welchman moved to the U.S., and later took American citizenship. He studied mathematics as a scholar at Trinity College, Cambridge, from 1925 to 1928. In 1929, he became a Research Fellow in Mathematics at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, a Fellow in 1932 and later Dean of the College.

Just before the Second World War, Welchman was invited by Commander Alastair Denniston to join the Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park. He was one of four early recruits (the others being Alan Turing, Hugh Alexander and Stuart Milner-Barry), all of whom made significant contributions at Bletchley and who became known as "the wicked uncles.”

They also were the four signatories to an influential letter, delivered to Winston Churchill in October 1941, asking for more resources for the codebreaking work at Bletchley Park.

Bletchley’s staff was in desperate need of equipment and supplies. Churchill responded with one of his famed "Action This Day" orders.

As stated in his book, most of Welchman’s work at Bletchley was

centered on what was known as "traffic analysis" of encrypted German communications being sent over the infamous “Enigma” machine. He is credited with innovating the approach.

This led to data analysis techniques that today we describe as metadata analysis. It’s fair to say that Welchman was the first computer “hacker.”

Welchman devised an enhancement to Alan Turing's improved code-breaking design for breaking the secret Enigma code used by the Germans.

Welchman’s device was called a “Diagonal Board” because such a piece of wire is diagonally across the matrix of connections. The Diagonal Board cut decipher times down from days to mere hours when attacking ciphers generated by the German Enigma machine. The ciphers changed every day, so coming up with a key to read the Nazi transmissions was an almost impossible feat.

Welchman was head of Hut Six, the section at Bletchley Park responsible for breaking German Army and Air Force Enigma ciphers. After the War, Welchman moved to the United States in 1948, where he taught the first computer course at MIT. He then went to work for Remington Rand and Ferranti. Welchman became a U.S. citizen in 1962. In that year, he joined the Mitre Corporation, working on a secure communications systems for the US military. In 1971, he retired, but was retained as a consultant.

In 1982 his book “The Hut Six Story,” was published, which had intelligence agencies in the U.S. and Britain scurrying. While the U.S. National Security Agency disapproved, the book was not banned, but Welchman lost his security clearance (and therefore his MIT consultancy). He was forbidden to discuss either the book or his wartime work. The withdrawal of his security clearance by the NSA after the publishing of his “Hut Six Story” was described as "devastating.”

Welchman died in 1985, but he got the last word in. His final conclusions and corrections to the story of wartime codebreaking were published posthumously in 1986 in his paper "From Polish Bomba to British Bombe: the birth of Ultra.”

Gordon Welchman was the subject of a BBC documentary broadcast on Britain’s BBC in 2015. The program was entitled “Bletchley Park: Codebreaking's Forgotten Genius,” The program was aired here in the U.S. on the Smithsonian Channel titled: “The Codebreaker Who Hacked Hitler.”

The TV documentary is important because it notes that traffic analysis is now known as "network analysis" and "metadata" analysis and gives as an example the location of Osama bin Laden by the use of network analysis.

In September 2016, a plaque was unveiled by Welchman’s daughter, Susanna Griffiths, at St Mary's Church, Fishponds, in Bristol.

Historians have now acknowledged the harsh treatment of Welchman and have paid tribute to his "immense contribution" as a "giant of his era” and a key figure in defeating the Nazis during World War II. Tom Morrow's books are available at Amazon.com in soft-cover or via Kindle E-mail.

so stunned and so unexpectedly caught-off-guard that I never caught his name. I think (but not sure) his last name on his badge started with a letter "V." Anyway, my mind wasn't working on all cylinders at the moment and you could have knocked me over with a feather.

I do recall telling him to be safe and that we, the community, greatly are in debt to our police officers who protect and serve us at great risk.

Lyle, I just had to share this with you.

It may not seem like such a big deal, but to me, that police officer cared enough to make time to let me know of his true thoughts and feelings. His words meant the world to me. Police officers never truly know if they will survive their various shifts to make it back home to rejoin their respective families. That's a most sobering thought.

Republican Club of Ocean Hills to Welcome Diane Harkey, Republican Candidate for 49th Congressional District - Join the Republican Club of Ocean Hills (RCOH) on Wednesday, October 17th, to welcome Diane Harkey, Republican candidate for the 49th Congressional District in California. Ms. Harkey is running to replace Darrell Issa for this key congressional seat. The 49th is the top target of Democrats who are trying to “flip the 49th” in November! Harkey will discuss her congressional campaign and winning election strategy. As Chair of the State Board of Equalization, Diane Harkey is the highest ranking Republican elected official in the State of California.

Prior to becoming an elected official, she had a 30-year career in banking and finance. At 50, Harkey retired and chose to run for City Council in the City of Dana Point, where she also served as Mayor before becoming elected to the CA State Assembly in 2006. She served three terms in the Assembly before being elected to the State Board of Equalization in 2012.

Harkey’s key national issues include taxes,

case of an emergency. I think you should write, “An ambulance.”

The older you get the tougher it is to lose weight because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.

Did you ever notice that when you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together it spells "Theirs?"

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way and a lot of the roads were not paved.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Ah! Being young is beautiful but being old is comfortable.

Tarot Cards

A woman visited a psychic of some local repute. In a dark and gloomy room, gazing at the Tarot cards laid out before her, the Tarot reader

delivered the bad news: "There is no easy way to say this so I'll just be blunt: Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent death this year."

Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the psychic's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know.

She met the Tarot reader's gaze, steadied her voice and asked, "Will I get away with it?"

Ole and Lars were working for the city public works department in Wisconsin. Ole would dig a hole and Lars would follow behind and fill the hole in. They worked up one side of the street, then down the other, then moved on to the next street, working furiously all day without rest, one digging a hole, the other filling it in again.

An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand what they were doing. So he asked Ole, 'I'm impressed by the effort you two are putting in to your work, but I don't get it -- why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind and fill it up again?'

Ole, the hole digger, wiped his brow and sighed, "Vell, I suppose it probably looks odd because ve're normally a three-person team. But today Sven, who plants da trees,

Should children witness childbirth?

Good question.

Here's your answer.

Due to a power outage, only one paramedic responded to the call.

The house was very dark so the paramedic asked Kathleen, a 3-yr old girl to hold a flashlight high over her mommy so he could See while he helped deliver the baby...

Very diligently, Kathleen did as she was asked. Heidi pushed And pushed and after a little while, Connor was born.

The paramedic lifted him by his little feet and spanked him on his bottom. Connor began to cry.

The paramedic then thanked Kathleen for her help and asked the wide-eyed 3-yr old what she thought about what she had just witnessed..

Kathleen quickly responded, 'He shouldn't have crawled in there in the first place.....smack his butt again!'

The Pastor Says . . .

Because it’s good for us. We feel good when we serve. And Jesus asked us to love our neighbors as ourselves.

And it’s good for the community.

People serving people is the backbone of every healthy city.

Rowan is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society.

She’s a 9 year old, 50 pound, female, Golden Retriever mix.

Her previous owners tell us that Rowan is a very well behaved lady in her home. She likes hanging out and sunning herself in her yard. She gets along well with most dogs, but would also be okay as the queen of her house.

The $75 adoption fee for Rowan includes medical exams, vaccinations, spay, and registered microchip.

Legend is a handsome boy looking for his next adventure buddy. This 3-year-old German Shepherd mix was surrendered by his previous owner because he could no longer keep him in his apartment, so Legend is looking for a new family to love.

Legend is very friendly and has fun, playful energy. He would benefit from daily exercise. If you think Legend could be the right match for you, come meet him at our Escondido Campus! His adoption fee includes his neuter, permanent microchip identification, current vaccinations, 30 days worry free insurance from Trupanion Insurance and a certificate for a free veterinary exam!

Pastor Hal Seed New Song Community Church, Oceanside

Churches Do Unseen Things

Last Saturday morning the church I pastor cleaned every Oceanside beach, from the Harbor all the way to the Carlsbad Power Plant. We also served meals at Bread of Life, helped at Brother Bennos, played with children at Solutions for Change, prayed with recruits at Edson Range, and volunteered at several other places around our city.

Call almost any local church and what you’ll find might surprise you: churches are an unseen force for good in our communities.

Why?

Halloween Fest

On Halloween, we want to serve our community in a not-sounseen way. That night (from 4 p.m. to 7p.m.) we’ll be hosting the biggest parties we’ve ever had for children. A growing number of parents are looking for a safe place for their children to have fun and glean candy on Halloween, so we’ll be providing two of those places.

We’ll pack our church parking lots (both of them: 3985 Mission Avenue in Oceanside and 3780 Pio Pico Drive in Carlsbad) with carloads of candy, games, inflatables, and music. That way, families can feel safe and be safe while enjoying their evening together.

I hope you’ll join us Halloween evening!

San Marcos • Mayor Jim Desmond

Are you prepared for wildfire? Defensibl e space inspectio ns help keep homeown ers safe in San Marcos

The City of San Marcos believes that public education is the key to community safety, especially when it comes to preparing for a wildfire. It is critical for property owners to create defensible space—a buffer around a house that is clear of vegetation that can easily catch fire. This defensible space should be at least 100 feet for homes built before 2005, and 150 feet for homes built after 2005.

To help homeowners achieve that, the San Marcos Fire Department is happy to provide free property inspections. Since January, the department has inspected

more than 300 properties asking owners to remove dead and overgrown vegetation.

As part of the free service, inspectors provide homeowners with a report that includes recommendations on how to improve or maintain defensible space using a checklist and photos based on the property inspection. Inspectors can assess defensible space requirements from the street or an adjacent property— homeowners do not have to be present. If a homeowner is not home or cannot participate, a copy of the report is mailed.

For more information about this service, contact (760) 744- 1050, ext. 3409.

Vista • Mayor Judy Ritter Open House at Fire Station #5

We are in the middle of this Fire year’s Prevention Week and now is a great time to remind residents to check the dates on their smoke alarms.

Our Vista Fire Department educates the public to replace smoke alarms every ten years. Many residents don’t know how old their smoke alarms are, or how often they need to be replaced.

To find out how old a smoke alarm is, look at the date of manufacture on the back of the alarm; the alarm should be

replaced 10 years from that date.

Do you still have questions about smoke alarms or other fire preventive tips?

The public is invited to an Open House at Fire Station #5, located at 2009 S. Melrose Drive on Saturday, October 13. Meet firefighters, tour the station, kids can meet Fire Mascot Sparky, and adults can learn hands-on how to use a fire extinguisher. The open house is from 1-4 PM and is a fun, free, family event.

We’re Still Here

Now we understand why so many stores “go out of business” several times before they actually do it.

The level of interest created by our announcement that we plan to get out of the computer business on Dec.31st brought in friends we hadn’t seen in years. Business is brisk as regular home and business customers make sure they are “stocked up” on our kind of service and computers before we skedaddle. There is no rush though, we still have every hope that someone will step in and take over this business and do an even better job of serving our customers than we have.

“Social engineering exploits” are the source of most computer infections that we see on a day to day basis. They are fairly easy to avoid if you simply implement the mind-set that everyone on the Internet or telephone who wants to help you is a crook or a politician. There’s little difference in the effectiveness of anti-virus programs, free or paid and it can help you avoid some dangerous sites and down loads but it won’t protect you when you innocently invite an attractive looking “Trojan horse” into your PC. Podcaster and radio Guru Leo LaPorte boasts that he hasn’t had an anti-virus on any of his computers for many years. “They simply slow you down.”

Leo is a lot better at avoiding the treachery of the Internet bad guys than the rest of us. We would not dream of surfing naked on the WWW. We consider whatever protection we get from our antivirus worth the inconvenience.

We also run pop-up/adware/spyware blockers to avoid annoying ads even though some interesting sites require us to temporarily disable them to view their content.

These too are worth the inconvenience.
