He recorded flute solos with Benny Carter and with Spike Hughes in 1933, and played and recorded with the Chick Webb band for several years, soloing on flute on tracks such as "Sweet Sue", "Down Home Rag" and "I Got Rhythm". Flutes of many kinds have been used in jazz music. The modern Boehm system transverse concert flute is commonly used in jazz playing; other members of the same family are also heard.

Smallest-circle problem Smallest-circle problem The smallest-circle problem or minimum covering circle problem is a mathematical problem of computing the smallest circle that contains all of a given set of points in the Euclidean plane. The corresponding problem in "n"-dimensional space, the smallest bounding-sphere problem, is to compute the smallest "n"-sphere that contains all of a given set of points. The smallest-circle problem was initially proposed by the English mathematician James Joseph Sylvester in 1857. The smallest-circle problem in the plane is an example of a facility location problem (the 1-center problem) in which the location of a new facility must be chosen
