Sitting in attendance at the Horseshoe Stage Theater presentation of Joseph

THE HAWK TALKS

Thanks, Wilson.

I've tried all sorts of search terms for THE AFRO AMERICAN (Baltimore, but
national coverage), Newspaperarchive, and ProQuest Historical Newspapers. If
Down Beat doesn't come through, we'll have to wait for the complete
digitization  of the Chicago Tribune. It's now at 1958, but in the 1960s and 1970s, "The
Hawk"  was probably discussed at least once and readers probably wrote in.
However,  with ProQuest, that could be this year, or next year...

As they came to the door, there was an outburst of jazz music. Outside the
jimmy Walker band was playing Bellson's song, "The Hawk Talks."

COLEMAN HAWKINS: The Hawk Talks (Decca).  The elder statesman of the tenor
saxophone is plagued by strings and steel  guitars throughout most of this disk,
but he manages tgo break through  occasionally with some of his customary
strong, striking statements.

First page, first paragraph:
IN THE SOUTH SIDE OF CHICAGO, in the lobby of a former union hall, there
hangs an old photograph. Striking stockyard workers, blacks and whites, are
huddled together for solidarity, and perhaps for warmth, against the fierce
winter wind that whips off Lake Michigan, an infamous gale known here as "The
Hawk." Across the photograph is emblazoned the slogan, "Negro and White--Unite  to
Fight!"
