North Syracuse Bat Maker Supplies Props for Big League
North Syracuse craftsman Tom Mattimore known as The Batsmith created seven decorative bats and a display rack for the film Little Big League produced by Independent Studio Services. The bats bearing American League West team names hang in a Syracuse baseball clubhouse scene though later division changes made them appear out of date. Mattimore earned 650 dollars for the work and saw his bats on screen during previews.

Quartet Improvises Intense Jazz With Sanders and Kiermyer
The Franklin Kiermyer Quartet featuring Pharoah Sanders experiments in modal tooled pieces. Sanders drives with sheets of sound while Esposito and Gross stretch the ensemble through pieces like If I Die Before I Wake Peace On Earth and Birds of the Nile. This is serious, intense jazz for devoted listeners rather than casual fans.
