paragraph: Fred Page

paragraph: Frederick Page (September 29, 1915 – December 22, 1997) was a Canadian ice hockey administrator, referee, and player.

paragraph: He originated from Port Arthur, Ontario playing junior ice hockey, then officiated locally and later at the Memorial Cup and Allan Cup competitions. He was a league and district executive in Port Arthur, then served as president of the Thunder Bay Amateur Hockey Association from 1958 to 1962. He was elected second vice president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA) in 1962, and rose up the ranks to be its president from 1966 to 1968. Page wanted the CAHA to gain more control over its affairs, and become less dependent on the National Hockey League (NHL). Under his leadership, the NHL ended direct sponsorship of junior hockey teams. He was instrumental in negotiating the revised agreement for the NHL Entry Draft in 1967, and later served as co-chairman of the resulting joint player development committee.

paragraph: Page later served as vice-president of the International Ice Hockey Federation from 1968 to 1972, where he helped organize the Ice Hockey World Championships, and served as a director of ice hockey at the Olympic Games. He assisted in negotiating international hockey participation on behalf of Canada, and was one of the four signatories of the agreement to play the 1972 Summit Series between the Canadian and the Soviet Union national teams. He later became a founding member of the Pacific Coast Junior Hockey League and the Canadian Junior A Hockey League, also presided over the British Columbia Junior Hockey League.

paragraph: For his lifetime of service, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, the BC Hockey Hall of Fame, and the BC Sports Hall of Fame, and was made the namesake of the Fred Page Cup.

paragraph: Section::::Thunder Bay district hockey.

paragraph: Page was born on September 29, 1915 in Port Arthur, Ontario. He grew up playing minor ice hockey in the Thunder Bay district, then graduated to junior ice hockey. for the 1934–35 season. He won the Thunder Bay Amateur Hockey Association (TBAHA) championship with the Port Arthur Juniors that season. His finished his playing career in the 1938–39 with the Nipigon Intermediates.

paragraph: Starting 1939, Page transitioned into being an ice hockey referee and a coach in Fort William minor hockey, and with the TBAHA. He was recognized for his refereeing abilities, and was selected to officiate in playoffs for the Memorial Cup and the Allan Cup. During game three of the 1953 Memorial Cup Western Canada final, Leo Konyk scored an overtime game-winning goal for the St. Boniface Canadiens, then grabbed Page who was refereeing, and began dancing with him at center ice. After the incident, Page implied that he did not like dancing. He later officiated in the 1958 Memorial Cup playoffs, and at 1958 Allan Cup tournament.

paragraph: Page became involved in local sports committees as an executive with the Fort William Minor Hockey Association in 1948, and was elected the organization's president in 1951. He service with the TBAHA executive committee started in 1954, culminating as its president from 1958 to 1962. Page also joined the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA) committee in 1958, in his role as the TBAHA president.

paragraph: Page was the CAHA executive who oversaw the 1960 Western Canada junior final, and ordered the final match of the series to be stopped due to on-ice violence, and awarded to the Brandon Wheat Kings. At the 1961 general meeting of the CAHA, Page made a motion to provide greater compensation for the visiting team in senior ice hockey playoffs to cover travel expenses. At the same meeting, he opposed a motion which gave the CAHA president or his representative the power to choose either the two-referee-system without linesmen, or the one-referee-two-linesmen system for CAHA playoffs. Page preferred having one referee and two linesmen. In the winter of 1961–62, he travelled with the local Port Arthur Bearcats team that represented Canada in a European exhibition game tour. Page relocated to British Columbia in the early 1960s, after his term as the TBAHA president concluded.

paragraph: Section::::CAHA vice-president.

paragraph: Page was elected the second vice-president of the CAHA on May 25, 1962, and served in the role under president Art Potter until 1964. Page chaired the Western Canada junior hockey committee that examined the reduced calibre of play in the Memorial Cup, brought on by rapid expansion which included 17 new teams in the British Columbia Amateur Hockey Association (BCAHA) within two years. In December 1962, he negotiated a new draft agreement with the National Hockey League (NHL) to allow the drafting of four 17-year olds, with a payment of $2,000 to the junior club. He also acted as a chaperone for the Soviet Union national ice hockey team on tour in Canada in December 1962.

paragraph: Page was elected the first vice-president of the CAHA on May 23, 1964, and served in the role under president Lionel Fleury until 1966. Page served on the CAHA committee to examine the existing professional amateur draft agreement, and the financial reliance of the CAHA on the NHL. He was also placed in charge of the Lacombe Rockets tour of Europe during December 1964.

paragraph: His role as vice-president was occupied by the arbitration committee to resolve disagreements between the provinces and the respective junior leagues. The Manitoba Amateur Hockey Association (MAHA) and the Saskatchewan Amateur Hockey Association (SAHA) were at odds, due to the Flin Flon Bombers and the Brandon Wheat Kings playing in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) instead of in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL). Page and the committee reached a resolution by profit sharing the ticket sales between the leagues and teams. He also admitted a mistake in the Western junior playoffs structure, and agreed to revisit the issue as proposed by Jimmy Dunn and the MJHL.

paragraph: Page was in charge of the Western junior playoffs for the Memorial Cup, and stated it was too late to change the playoffs when the SAHA did not meet its deadline to determine a league winner to face the BCAHA champion. He decided that the SJHL should give financial compensation to the BCAHA team, as per the CAHA regulations. He was later in charge of the contentious 1965 Memorial Cup, which included many penalties between the Edmonton Oil Kings and the Niagara Falls Flyers.

paragraph: Page was re-elected as first vice-president on May 28, 1965. He announced that the CAHA would choose the site of the 1966 Memorial Cup based on recommendations from the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) champion, despite the desire of the OHA to host games in Maple Leaf Gardens for the biggest profit, and that no set rule was in place for determining the location of the games. The games were ultimately played in the Gardens, since the OHA championship was won by the nearby Oshawa Generals.

paragraph: Page also attended exploratory meetings in May 1966, between the CAHA and potential team owners in Western Canada. Discussions included concerns about financial burdens on owners, junior age limits, and a draft proposal with the NHL to end direct team sponsorship. He chaired the CAHA general meeting while Fleury was absent due to a heart condition. Page said that he expected to enter talks with the NHL regarding a new professional-amateur pact being proposed by the CAHA, and that the old agreement would end in June 1967. At the same meeting, the CAHA accepted the Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union as an associate member.

paragraph: Section::::CAHA president.

paragraph: Section::::CAHA president.:First year.

paragraph: Page was elected president of the CAHA on May 28, 1966, and served in the role for two years until 1968. He wanted the CAHA to gain more control over its affairs, become more independent from the NHL, a move away from junior-aged players being bound by contracts to professional teams. He set about to replace the existing system of NHL clubs directly sponsoring junior teams with a universal draft instead. He recognized that a new system might cost more money to operate, but give the CAHA more control over its junior players in the future. He entered into negotiations for a new player development agreement between the CAHA, the NHL, and the Amateur Hockey Association of the United States (AHAUS).

paragraph: Page and NHL president Clarence Campbell announced a new tentative five-year agreement on August 19, 1966, with several proposed changes to the existing system, effective July 1, 1967. The direct sponsorship of junior teams by the NHL was to be phased out in the upcoming year, and no new sponsored players could be registered or be required to sign a contract restricting movement between teams. The agreement eliminated the A, B and C forms, which had angered the parents of amateur players and were the source of legal action threats when the professional team refused to release a player. Page succeeded in getting junior-aged players to be eligible for the NHL Entry Draft once they graduate from junior hockey, or to be signed as a free agent in the year the player reaches his 20th birthday. The NHL agreed to pay development fees to the CAHA for the drafted players, and it allowed the CAHA to distribute the fees. The new agreement came at a time that also leveled the playing field for new NHL clubs in the 1967 NHL expansion.

paragraph: Despite the new agreement, Page faced challenges from teams in Western Canada which wanted the age limit to be 21, and allow the movement of players to team in other provinces. The dissenting teams dropped out of the SJHL, and formed the independent Canadian Major Junior Hockey League (CMJHL) which was not sanctioned by the CAHA. Page suspended those persons involved with the CMJHL, and the CAHA amended its internal rules to revoke the suspensions if the players or the league returned to CAHA jurisdiction. He instructed the Alberta Amateur Hockey Association (AAHA) and SAHA branches to inform of the suspensions from the CAHA, and was forced to call an emergency meeting of the CAHA, when the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association (QAHA) joined the AAHA, and the SAHA in opposition to the suspensions. The meeting resulted in the suspension of CMJHL commissioner Frank Boucher and the teams' governors, in addition to the players. The CAHA invited teams and players to rejoin the SJHL or the Alberta Junior Hockey League to be eligible to compete for the Memorial Cup. The CMJHL proceeded with legal action against Page and the CAHA, with the aim to have the suspension lifted and be eligible for the Memorial Cup.

paragraph: On the international side of the game, the new agreement that Page negotiated with the NHL included provisions for players to be reinstated as amateurs after two years of not playing professional, or by a review board for a quicker decision. Despite those provisions, Page said that the CAHA recognized suspensions handed out by the NHL, and would not permit Carl Brewer to play as an amateur with the Canada men's national ice hockey team unless the reason for the suspension was resolved with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

paragraph: In 1966, Avery Brundage of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) threatened to drop hockey from the Winter Olympic Games due to the increasing professional and commercial nature of the sport. Page did not take the threat seriously, since he believed that profits from hockey actually kept the Olympics going. Page confirmed that the CAHA considered withdrawing from the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) in March 1967, if Canada was not given hosting duties for either the 1969 or 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships. Canada had never hosted the event, and proposed co-hosting with AHAUS at Colorado Springs, Colorado.

paragraph: Section::::CAHA president.:Second year.

paragraph: The 1967 CAHA general meeting saw Page re-elected as president, and ratification of the new 5-year professional-amateur agreement. NHL teams agreed to pay $3,000 for each of the first 72 players, and $2,000 per any player drafted thereafter or signed as a free agent. Page and the CAHA would then oversee the distribution of draft fees to teams which developed the player. The agreement also set up a joint player development committee to grow the talent pool and skill level, and Page served as its co-chairman. The CAHA constitution was amended at the general meeting to give absolute powers to the executive when needed, which aimed to prevent further court cases. The executive committee also decided on applications by senior teams to play in the Ahearne Cup and the Spengler Cup, and began the process of starting a second Canadian national team based in Ottawa, in addition to the Winnipeg-based national team. Page and the CAHA were also faced with Quebec sovereignty movement sentiments in the QAHA, where some leagues broke away from the English-dominated CAHA. Page and the QAHA intended to use the opportunity to play on the second Canadian national team as a drawing card to stay within the CAHA.

paragraph: Later in 1967, the IIHF awarded Canada hosting duties for the 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships A pool, and gave permission to use minor league professionals and reinstated amateurs at event. Page replied to the Russian protests of professionals by saying that "it was decided upon by a majority vote, and there was little that the Russians could do to change it". Page felt that the Canadian national team was typically restricted by the exclusion of professionals at the Olympics. He felt that professional contracts were more lucrative to Canada's best younger players than the $2,500 scholarship which the CAHA offered to cover tuition and living expenses.

paragraph: The CAHA invited all cities in Canada with arenas of 10,000 seats or more to bid for hosting games in the 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships. Applications were received from Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, and Vancouver. The "Winnipeg Free Press" speculated that Vancouver and the Pacific Coliseum had a good chance of hosting, due to Page residing in the city. He later announced that the first 15 games of the championships were to be played at the Montreal Forum, with the final 15 games at the Winnipeg Arena.

paragraph: The CAHA later approved a proposal for a transatlantic hockey league, including the national teams from Canada, Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, and the United States. The proposal was to be submitted at the upcoming IIHF meeting. Page felt that the success of the proposal depended on Soviet participation. He later stated that suggestions by IIHF president Bunny Ahearne to include the top senior club teams from each country, would not be as appealing to Canadian spectators as opposed to national teams. The league never came to be as Sweden and Czechoslovakia expressed concerns about travel time since players worked other jobs, and no commitment was made by the Soviets.

paragraph: In other CAHA business, Page announced that the Spokane Jets would host the 1968 Allan Cup quarterfinals, which marked the first time that Allan Cup games were played outside of Canada. The CAHA changed a rule to allow games in Spokane, and had the Jets reached the finals, they would have hosted.

paragraph: Section::::Post-CAHA presidency.

paragraph: Page became the past president of the CAHA in May 1968, and was succeeded by Lloyd Pollock as president. As past president, Page remained on the joint CAHA-NHL player development committee. The NHL supported the committee and refused to do business with the Canadian Hockey Association (CHA) or its affiliated Western Canada Hockey League (WCHL). The WCHL had switched allegiance from the CAHA to the CHA in June 1968, in a dispute over the age limits from the new NHL draft agreement Page had negotiated. Page later assisted in negotiations to unify amateur hockey in Quebec. He said that changes would be made to the QAHA constitution to "give a greater voice and representation to all categories", and thereby appease the breakaway Quebec Amateur Hockey Federation. He also approved of the Japan Ice Hockey Federation sponsoring Hiroshi Hori, to play as an imported junior for the Winnipeg Monarchs in the 1968–69 season of the MJHL.

paragraph: On October 22, 1968, Page confirmed the received the resignation of Pollock as president of the CAHA with "deep regret", and that no changes in positions would be made until the executive meeting in January. Page was later put in charge of the western 1969 Allan Cup playoffs, and acted as co-chairman of the 1969 CAHA general meeting at the Palliser Hotel in Calgary, along with Joe Kryczka the AAHA president. Page also served as chairman of the CAHA junior hockey committee which upheld the NHL's junior age limit of 20, but also agreed to ask the NHL for age 21. Page's term as past president expired on May 29, 1971 when succeeded by Earl Dawson. The CAHA then passed a by-law to give life membership to all past presidents. Page continued to attend CAHA meetings as a life member, and was later appointed a director-at-large of the CAHA in September 1971.

paragraph: Section::::International hockey.

paragraph: Page served as the first vice-president of the IIHF from 1968 to 1972, and oversaw its North American membership. During this time he helped set up leadership clinics, and was also a director-at-large for the CAHA to keep them informed of international matters. He continued to assist facilitating teams who wished to travel between North America and Europe, helped organize the Ice Hockey World Championships, and served as a director at the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble, and the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo.

paragraph: For the upcoming 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships, Page stated that the deadline to enter was extended by a week, to allow the Soviets to decide whether they will attend due to disagreements on the proposed schedule. He confirmed that if the Soviets did not play, the United States would take their place in Pool A. He also said that Sweden was protesting since Canada withdrew from the annual Ahearne Cup hosted in Sweden, when Canada received poor press coverage in Sweden.

paragraph: In December 1972, Brundage declared that any country playing against professionals from Canada would be ineligible for the 1972 Winter Olympics. Page didn't understand the fuss caused by Brundage's statement, and further stated that Canada had played exhibition games using professionals against other countries without any opposition raised by Brundage. Page attempted to work out a compromise by suggesting that Canada host an exhibition tournament instead of an official World Championship, and attended an emergency meeting of the IIHF to discuss the Olympic eligibility concerns along with Gordon Juckes and Dawson from the CAHA. The IIHF ultimately decided against allowing professionals at the 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships, with Ahearne casting a tie-breaking vote against it. On January 20, 1970, Canada withdrew from international play and resigned hosting duties of the 1970 World Ice Hockey Championships. Page requested a special meeting with the IIHF in February to discuss the issue, attended by Harold Wright of the Canadian Olympic Association, but the meeting did not result in any progress on the matter.

paragraph: In May 1971, Canada began to renegotiate a return to international hockey tournaments. Page said that Europeans had suggested a Christmas tournament with the senior ice hockey champions from Canada and the United States, playing against the Ahearne Cup champions. In February 1972, he stated the possibility of Canada and the Soviet Union playing each other using professionals by May 1972, but admitted there were difficulties in negotiation. He expected talks to continue during the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo. He had begun negotiating with Anatoly Tarasov in 1971, but both sides played the waiting game for a year. Page stated that negotiating hockey agreements in Canada was increasingly difficult, due to the complexity of the CAHA, Hockey Canada, and the NHL.

paragraph: Canada and the Soviet Union agreed to play eight games against each other using their best players available including professionals, which later became known as the 1972 Summit Series. Page was one of the four signatories which approved the agreement on April 18, 1972 at the Hotel International Prague, giving his approval as vice-president of the IIHF. It was also signed by Joe Kryczka as president of the CAHA, Andrey Starovoytov as the general secretary of the Soviet Union Ice Hockey Federation, and Ahearne as the president of the IIHF. Alan Eagleson was the first Canadian to phone the press and take credit for the event, but Page said that Eagleson was never invited to the Canada-Soviet series negotiations.

paragraph: At the 1972 summer congress of the IIHF, Page was nominated to replace Ahearne as president, and was expected by the CAHA to be acclaimed since the president's position had alternated every three years between Europe and North America. Instead of Page being acclaimed, Ahearne declared a vote must take place, and the Europeans disapproved of the nomination. Ahearne was later re-elected in lieu of an acceptable North American candidate.

paragraph: Section::::British Columbia hockey.

paragraph: In 1973, Page assisted in the formation of the Pacific Coast Junior Hockey League (PCJHL), and later became its executive director, and then served as its president from 1975 to 1979. The league operated in competition with the British Columbia Junior Hockey League (BCJHL). In 1976, Page announced that the Chilliwack Bruins were transferring from the BCJHL to the PCJHL.

paragraph: The two leagues agreed to a merger in 1979, under the BCJHL name. Page served as the executive director of the BCJHL from 1979 to 1982, as its president from 1982 to 1983, and as its chairman of the board from 1980 until 1996. He spoke out against the Western Hockey League when its teams began drafting players below age 15, with the rationale that it was necessary to compete with the NHL, which was signing younger players. He also fought for BCJHL teams who had players drafted by NHL teams, but were did not receive compensation payments. Page was in favour of mandatory neck protection at the junior level, in response to a player's death by a skate blade slash in the neck in 1985.

paragraph: Page was one of the BCJHL delegates with attended the founding meeting of the Canadian Junior A Hockey League in November 1993, and was nominated as that league's inaugural chairman of the board. Page retired from his various positions in 1996, after serving 23 years as a hockey executive in British Columbia. He died on December 22, 1997, in Vancouver, and was survived by his wife and two children.

paragraph: Section::::Honours and awards.

paragraph: Page was made a life member of the Fort William Minor Hockey Association in 1954, and was later made a life member of the CAHA on May 25, 1973. He was inducted into the Northwestern Ontario Sports Hall of Fame in 1986.

paragraph: Page was honoured for a lifetime of dedication to hockey with induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1993, in the builder category. In British Columbia he was inducted as a builder into two halls of fame, first the BC Hockey Hall of Fame in 1995, and then posthumously into the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 2001.

paragraph: He is the namesake of two different Fred Page Cups, one in British Columbia, the other in Eastern Canada. The British Columbia Hockey League awards a Fred Page Cup for its annual playoffs championship. The Canadian Junior Hockey League awards a different Fred Page Cup which began in 1995, to the Eastern Canada Junior A champion, who then moves onto the national RBC Cup competition.

paragraph: Lazar Ličenoski

paragraph: Lazar Ličenoski (Macedonian: Лазар Личеноски; Galicnik, 26 March 1901 – Skopje, 10 April 1964). He was one of the first Slavic expressionist painters and one of the most authentic Macedonian painters of landscape, in which he imported folk elements as well. He painted still nature, portraits and mosaics.

paragraph: Section::::Education and career.

paragraph: Ličenoski graduated in 1927 from an art school in Belgrade, where he had studied under Milan Milovanović (1876–1946), Ljubomir Ivanovic (1882–1945) and Petar Dobrovic (1890–1942). Upon graduation, he organized his first exhibition in Skopje and specialized in wall painting at the School of Applied Arts in Paris. There he attended the École nationale supérieure d'arts et métiers (1927–29) and frequented the studio of Andre Lhote. In 1929 he returned to Belgrade and became a member of the group Oblik. In the 1930s he gradually abandoned portraiture and social issues as subject-matter in favour of painting the Macedonian landscape, which he rendered with somewhat crude brushwork and thick layers of intense colour. During that decade he decorated ecclesiastical and other buildings and worked on the monument Albanian Golgotha (1940) for the Serbian soldiers' cemetery on the island of Vido (Greece). He moved to Skopje in 1945 and became a professor at the newly established School of Applied Arts. Licenoski exhibited at several one-man and group shows at home and abroad.

paragraph: Section::::Painting style.

paragraph: His style had developed in the context of the Ecole de Paris, which contrasted with the narrative models he had inherited from the Post-Byzantine tradition. In his mature work he introduced the idiom of Expressionism into modern Macedonian art. From 1928 up to 1941, his art featured full color expressionism with a high presence of Macedonian motives on his canvases. He was also able to express himself perfectly well through fresco paintings and mosaics.

paragraph: Section::::Accomplishments.

paragraph: He founded the Office of Cultural and Historic Monuments, an art gallery and an art school where he taught until his death. He was a member of the Association of the Painting Artists of Macedonia (DLUM) and its first President, serving for one term.

paragraph: Dexter Gordon

paragraph: Dexter Gordon (February 27, 1923 – April 25, 1990) was an American jazz tenor saxophonist. He was one of the first players of the instrument in the bebop idiom of musicians such as Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Bud Powell. Gordon's height was , so he was also known as "Long Tall Dexter" and "Sophisticated Giant". His studio and performance career spanned over 40 years.

paragraph: Gordon's sound was commonly characterized as being "large" and spacious and he had a tendency to play behind the beat. He was known for humorously inserting musical quotes into his solos, with sources as diverse as popular tunes, "Happy Birthday", and the operas of Wagner. This is not unusual in common-practice jazz improvisation, but Gordon did it frequently enough to make it a hallmark of his style. One of his major influences was Lester Young. Gordon, in turn, was an early influence on John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins. Rollins and Coltrane then influenced Gordon's playing as he explored hard bop and modal playing during the 1960s.

paragraph: Gordon was known for his genial and humorous stage presence. He was an advocate of playing to communicate with the audience. One of his idiosyncratic rituals was to recite lyrics from each ballad before playing it.

paragraph: A photograph by Herman Leonard of Gordon taking a smoke break at the Royal Roost in 1948 is one of the iconic images in jazz photography. Cigarettes were a recurring theme on covers of Gordon's albums.

paragraph: Gordon was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his performance in the Bertrand Tavernier film "Round Midnight" (Warner Bros, 1986), and he won a Grammy for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Soloist, for the soundtrack album "The Other Side of Round Midnight" (Blue Note Records, 1986). He also had a cameo role in the 1990 film "Awakenings". In 2019, Gordon's album "Go" (Blue Note, 1962) was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Early life.

paragraph: Dexter Keith Gordon was born on February 27, 1923 in Los Angeles, California. His father, Dr. Frank Gordon, was one of the first African American doctors in Los Angeles who arrived in 1918 after graduating from Howard Medical School in Washington, D.C. Among his patients were Duke Ellington and Lionel Hampton. Dexter's mother, Gwendolyn Baker, was the daughter of Captain Edward Baker, one of the five African American Medal of Honor recipients in the Spanish–American War. Gordon played clarinet from the age of 13, before switching to saxophone (initially alto, then tenor) at 15. While still at school, he played in bands with such contemporaries as Chico Hamilton and Buddy Collette.

paragraph: Between December 1940 and 1943, Gordon was a member of Lionel Hampton's band, playing in a saxophone section alongside Illinois Jacquet and Marshal Royal. During 1944 he was featured in the Fletcher Henderson band, followed by the Louis Armstrong band, before joining Billy Eckstine. The 1942–44 musicians' strike curtailed the recording of the Hampton, Henderson, and Armstrong bands; however, they were recorded on V-Discs produced by the Army for broadcast and distribution among overseas troops. In 1943 he was featured, alongside Harry "Sweets" Edison, in recordings under Nat Cole for a small label not affected by the strike.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Bebop era recordings.

paragraph: By late 1944, Gordon was resident in New York, a regular at bebop jam sessions, and a featured soloist in the Billy Eckstine big band ("If That's The Way You Feel, I Want To Talk About You, Blowin' the Blues Away, Opus X, I'll Wait And Pray, The Real Thing Happened To Me, Lonesome Lover Blues, I Love the Rhythm in a Riff"). During early 1945 he was featured on recordings by Dizzy Gillespie ("Blue 'n' Boogie", Groovin' High) and Sir Charles Thompson ("Takin' Off, If I Had You, 20th Century Blues, The Street Beat"). In late 1945 he was recording under his own name for the Savoy label. His Savoy recordings during 1945-46 included "Blow Mr. Dexter, Dexter's Deck, Dexter's Minor Mad, Long Tall Dexter, Dexter Rides Again, I Can't Escape From You, "and" Dexter Digs In". He returned to Los Angeles in late 1946 and in 1947 was leading sessions for Ross Russell's Dial label ("Mischievous Lady, Lullaby in Rhythm, The Chase, Iridescence, It's the Talk of the Town, Bikini, A Ghost of a Chance, Sweet and Lovely"). After his return to Los Angeles, he became known for his saxophone duels with fellow tenorman Wardell Gray, which were a popular concert attraction documented in recordings made between 1947 and 1952 ("The Hunt, Move, The Chase, The Steeplechase"). "The Hunt" gained literary fame from its mention in Jack Kerouac's "On The Road", which also contains descriptions of wild tenormen jamming in Los Angeles. "Cherokee, Byas a Drink, "and" Disorder at the Border" are other live recordings of the Gray/Gordon duo from the same concert as "The Hunt". In December 1947, Gordon recorded again with the Savoy label ("Settin' the Pace, So Easy, Dexter's Riff, Dextrose, Dexter's Mood, Index, Dextivity, Wee Dot, Lion Roars"). Through the mid-to-late 1940s he continued to work as a sideman on sessions led by Russell Jacquet, Benny Carter, Ben Webster, Ralph Burns, Jimmy Rushing, Helen Humes, Gerry Mulligan, Wynonie Harris, Leo Parker, and Tadd Dameron.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:The 1950s.

paragraph: During the 1950s, Gordon's recorded output and live appearances declined as heroin addiction and legal troubles took their toll. Gordon made a concert appearance with Wardell Gray in February 1952 ("The Chase, The Steeplechase, Take the A Train, Robbins Nest, Stardust") and appeared as a sideman in a session led by Gray in June 1952 ("The Rubiyat, Jungle Jungle Jump, Citizen's Bop, My Kinda Love"). After an incarceration at Chino Prison during 1953-55, he recorded the albums "Daddy Plays the Horn" and "Dexter Blows Hot and Cool" in 1955 and played as a sideman on the Stan Levey album, "This Time the Drum's on Me." The latter part of the decade saw him in and out of prison until his final release from Folsom Prison in 1959. He was one of the initial sax players for the Onzy Matthews big band in 1959, along with Curtis Amy. Gordon continued to champion Matthews' band after he left Los Angeles for New York, but left for Europe before getting a chance to record with that band. He recorded "The Resurgence of Dexter Gordon" in 1960. His recordings from the mid-1950s onward document a meander into a smooth West Coast style that lacked the impact of his bebop era recordings or his subsequent Blue Note recordings.

paragraph: The decade saw Gordon's first entry into the world of drama. He appeared as a member (uncredited) of Art Hazzard's band in the 1950 film "Young Man with a Horn". He appeared in an uncredited and overdubbed role as a member of a prison band in the movie "Unchained", filmed inside Chino. Gordon was a saxophonist performing Freddie Redd's music for the Los Angeles production of Jack Gelber's play "The Connection" in 1960, replacing Jackie McLean. He contributed two compositions, "Ernie's Tune" and "I Want More" to the score and later recorded them for his album "Dexter Calling".

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:New York renaissance.

paragraph: Gordon signed to Blue Note Records in 1961. He initially commuted from Los Angeles to New York to record, but took up residence when he regained the cabaret card that allowed him to perform where alcohol was served. The Jazz Gallery hosted his first New York performance in twelve years. The Blue Note association was to produce a steady flow of albums for several years, some of which gained iconic status. His New York renaissance was marked by "Doin' Allright", "Dexter Calling...", "Go!", and "A Swingin' Affair". The first two were recorded over three days in May 1961 with Freddie Hubbard, Horace Parlan, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, George Tucker, Al Harewood, and Philly Joe Jones. The last two were recorded in August 1962, with a rhythm section that featured Blue Note regulars Sonny Clark, Butch Warren and Billy Higgins. Of the two "Go!" was an expressed favorite. The albums showed his assimilation of the hard bop and modal styles that had developed during his years on the west coast, and the influence of John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins, whom he had influenced before. The stay in New York turned out to be short lived, as Gordon got offers for engagements in England, then Europe, that resulted in a fourteen-year stay. Soon after recording "A Swingin' Affair", he was gone.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Years in Europe.

paragraph: Over the next 14 years in Europe, living mainly in Paris and Copenhagen, Gordon played regularly with fellow expatriates or visiting players, such as Bud Powell, Ben Webster, Freddie Hubbard, Bobby Hutcherson, Kenny Drew, Horace Parlan and Billy Higgins. Blue Note's German-born Francis Wolff supervised Gordon's later sessions for the label on his visits to Europe. The pairing of Gordon with Drew turned out to be one of the classic matchups between a horn player and a pianist, much like Miles Davis with Red Garland or John Coltrane with McCoy Tyner.

paragraph: From this period come "Our Man in Paris", "One Flight Up", "Gettin' Around", and "Clubhouse". "Our Man in Paris" was a Blue Note session recorded in Paris in 1963 with backup consisting of pianist Powell, drummer Kenny Clarke, and French bassist Pierre Michelot. "One Flight Up", recorded in Paris in 1964 with trumpeter Donald Byrd, pianist Kenny Drew, drummer Art Taylor, and Danish bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, features an extended solo by Gordon on the track "Tanya".

paragraph: Gordon also visited the US occasionally for further recording dates. "Gettin' Around" was recorded for Blue Note during a visit in May 1965, as was the album "Clubhouse" which remained unreleased until 1979.

paragraph: Gordon found Europe in the 1960s a much easier place to live, saying that he experienced less racism and greater respect for jazz musicians. He also stated that on his visits to the US in the late 1960s and early 1970s, he found the political and social strife disturbing. While in Copenhagen, Gordon and Drew's trio appeared onscreen in Ole Ege's theatrically released hardcore pornographic film "Pornografi" (1971), for which they composed and performed the score.

paragraph: He switched from Blue Note to Prestige Records (1965–73) but stayed very much in the hard-bop idiom, making classic bop albums like "The Tower of Power!" and "More Power!" (1969) with James Moody, Barry Harris, Buster Williams, and Albert "Tootie" Heath; "The Panther!" (1970) with Tommy Flanagan, Larry Ridley, and Alan Dawson; "The Jumpin' Blues" (1970) with Wynton Kelly, Sam Jones, and Roy Brooks; "The Chase!" (1970) with Gene Ammons, Jodie Christian, John Young, Cleveland Eaton, Rufus Reid, Wilbur Campbell, Steve McCall, and Vi Redd; and "Tangerine" (1972) with Thad Jones, Freddie Hubbard, and Hank Jones. Some of the Prestige albums were recorded during visits back to North America while he was still living in Europe; others were made in Europe, including live sets from the Montreux Jazz Festival.

paragraph: In addition to the recordings Gordon did under his major label contracts, live recordings by European labels and live video from his European period are available. The Danish label SteepleChase released live dates from his mid-1960s tenure at the Montmartre Jazzhus. The video was released under the "Jazz Icons" series.

paragraph: Less well known than the Blue Note albums, but of similar quality, are the albums he recorded during the 1970s for SteepleChase ("Something Different", "Bouncin' With Dex", "Biting the Apple", "The Apartment", "Stable Mable", "The Shadow of Your Smile" and others). They again feature American sidemen, but also such Europeans as Spanish pianist Tete Montoliu and Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Homecoming.

paragraph: Gordon finally returned to the United States for good in 1976. He appeared with Woody Shaw, Ronnie Mathews, Stafford James, and Louis Hayes, for a gig at the Village Vanguard in New York that was dubbed his "homecoming." It was recorded and released by Columbia Records under that title. He noted: "There was "so" much love and elation; sometimes it was a little "eerie" at the Vanguard. After the last set they'd turn on the lights and "nobody" would move." In addition to the "Homecoming" album, a series of live albums was released by Blue Note from his stands at Keystone Corner in San Francisco during 1978 and 1979. They featured Gordon, George Cables, Rufus Reid, and Eddie Gladden. He recorded the studio albums "Sophisticated Giant" with an eleven piece big band in 1977 and "Manhattan Symphonie" with the "Live at Keystone Corner" crew in 1978. The sensation of Gordon's return, renewed promotion of the classic jazz catalogs of the Savoy and Blue Note record labels, and the continued efforts of Art Blakey through 1970s and early 1980s, have been credited with reviving interest in swinging, melodic, acoustically-based classic jazz sounds after the Fusion jazz era that saw an emphasis on electronic sounds and contemporary pop influences.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Musician Emeritus.

paragraph: In 1978 and 1980, Gordon was the "DownBeat" Musician of the Year and in 1980 he was inducted into the Jazz Hall of Fame. The US Government honored him with a Congressional Commendation, a Dexter Gordon Day in Washington DC, and a National Endowment for the Arts award for Lifetime Achievement. In 1986, he was named a member and officer of the French Order of Arts and Letters by the Ministry of Culture in France.

paragraph: During the 1980s, Gordon was weakened by emphysema. He remained a popular attraction at concerts and festivals, although his live appearances and recording dates would soon become infrequent.

paragraph: Gordon's most memorable works from the decade were not in music but in film. He starred in the 1986 movie "Round Midnight" as "Dale Turner", an expatriate jazz musician in Paris during the late 1950s based loosely on Lester Young and Bud Powell. That portrayal earned him a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Actor. In addition, he had a non-speaking role in the 1990 film "Awakenings", which was posthumously released. Before that last film was released he made a guest appearance on the Michael Mann series "Crime Story".

paragraph: Soundtrack performances from Round Midnight were released as the albums "Round Midnight" and "The Other Side of Round Midnight", featuring original music by Herbie Hancock as well as playing by Gordon. The latter was the last recording released under Gordon's name. He was a sideman on Tony Bennett's 1987 album, "Berlin".

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.:Death and postmortem.

paragraph: Gordon died of kidney failure and cancer of the larynx in Philadelphia, on April 25, 1990, at the age of 67.

paragraph: On June 25, 2019, "The New York Times Magazine" listed Dexter Gordon among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the 2008 Universal fire.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: Gordon's maternal grandfather was Captain Edward L. Baker, who received the Medal of Honor during the Spanish–American War, while serving with the 10th Cavalry Regiment (also known as the Buffalo Soldiers).

paragraph: Gordon's father, Dr. Frank Gordon, M.D., was one of the first prominent African-American physicians and a graduate of Howard University.

paragraph: Dexter Gordon had a total of six children, from the oldest to the youngest: Robin Gordon (Los Angeles), California, James Canales (Los Angeles), Deidre (Dee Dee) Gordon (Los Angeles), Mikael Gordon-Solfors (Stockholm), Morten Gordon (Copenhagen) and Benjamin Dexter Gordon (Copenhagen), and seven grandchildren, Raina Moore Trider (Brooklyn), Jared Johnson (Los Angeles), and Matthew Johnson (Los Angeles), Maya Canales (San Francisco) and Jared Canales (San Francisco), Dexter Gordon Bogs (Copenhagen), Dexter Minou Flipper Gordon-Marberger (Stockholm).

paragraph: When he lived in Denmark, Gordon became friends with the family of the future Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich, and subsequently became Lars's godfather.

paragraph: Gordon was also survived by his widow Maxine Gordon and her son Woody Louis Armstrong Shaw III.

paragraph: Section::::Instruments.

paragraph: The earliest photographs of Gordon as a player show him with a Conn 30M "Connqueror" and an Otto Link mouthpiece. In a 1962 interview with the British journalist Les Tomkins, he did not refer to the specific model of mouthpiece but stated that it was made for him personally. He stated that it was stolen around 1952. The famous smoke break photo from 1948 shows him with a Conn 10M and a Dukoff mouthpiece, which he played until 1965. In the Tomkins interview he referred to his mouthpiece as a medium-chambered piece with a #5* (.080" under the Dukoff system) tip opening. He bought a Selmer Mark VI from Ben Webster after his 10M went missing in transit. In a "Down Beat" magazine interview from 1977, he referred to his current mouthpiece as an Otto Link with a #8 (.110" under the Otto Link system) tip opening.
