...Stan Getz is 38 now, and his audience has grown more appreciative, largely because he never quite learned how to play louder. In a period when the best of his contemporaries are feverishly trying to break the sound barriers of jazz, Tenorman Getz continues to play it cool. He now commands a top fee of $5,000 a performance, and his schedule for the past month was typical. After playing to a collective audience of 100,000 in six sellout concerts in Japan, he touched down at a Skokie, III, shopping center, where 15,000 persons had waited an hour...

These flaphappy contraptions include at least six flyable full-scale models, among...

Most recently, the San Francisco police raided two North Beach nightclubs, the Condor and the Off-Broadway, and dragged both proprietors into court. The Off-Broadway, which offers topless waitresses along with such name performers as Dizzy Gillespie, Stan Kenton and Trini Lopez, was accused of operating "a lewd and obscene exhibition" and of "conduct outraging public decency...

...Bouton will have a good season, but Downing has always been wild and erratic. Although he led the league in strikeouts last year, the southpaw fastballer walked 120 men in 244 innings.
