 Original Dixieland Jass Band
In early 1916 a promoter from Chicago aproached clarinetist Alcide Nunez and drummer Johnny Stein about bringing a New Orleans style band to Chicago, where a similar band led by trombonist Tom Brown was already enjoying success.
LaRocca and Nunez had personality conflicts, and on October 30 Tom Brown's Band and the ODJB mutually agreed to switch clarinetists, bringing Larry Shields into the Original Dixieland Jass Band.
Trumpeter Nick LaRocca convinced himself, in his old age, that this was literally true, but there is no evidence from the interviews and writings of the other O.D.J.B. members that the rest of the band ever considered it anything more than a snappy advertising slogan.

Perhaps the most dismal aspect of the whole sordid affair is Tosches' failure to review Nunez's actual testimony during the original case discussed in Tosches' book; it has as much metaphoric power as Whitcomb's florid creations.
Such an arrogant dismissal makes it seem that Tosches, ever eager to disguise himself as an authoritative researcher (albeit one who routinely relies on hired hands), blithely tried to fib his way out of the charge.
(Nunez spoke of "hashing up the real power blues.") Then again, as Pietsch wrote, "Tosches' original research, thoughts and interpretation are clearly demonstrated in Where Dead Voices Gather.

 The Clarinet In Jazz Since 1945: Pee Wee Russell
After several false musical starts (he tried piano, drums, and violin with no extended interest), at age 12 he heard and was inspired by the clarinetist Alcide "Yellow" Nunez and his band the Louisiana Five.
Nunez had once been a member of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, and he played more in the style of a lead trumpeter than a clarinetist, in that he preferred to play the melody rather than embellish it.
Pee Wee Russell was born in St. Louis, Missouri and grew up in Muskogee, Oklahoma.

De Gasperi placed great hopes not only in the ECSC but also in the EDC, the draft for the European Defence Community, which was another French idea for overcoming European nationalism, but which came to naught in August 1954 when the French Assembly voted against the project.
De Gasperi took part not only in its design but all the following phases and in May 1953 was elected President of the Assembly of the European Coal and Steel Community.
The idea was limited to creating a common coal and steel market between the six founding States (France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy) but it immediately proved to be a peace initiative by succeeding in bringing together the vanquished and the victors of the Second World War.
