New country singles show strength and imagination Here’s a sampling of songs vying for a spot on country radio play lists across Canada.Joan Kennedy follows her powerful debut single, I’m a Big Girl Now, with an equally strong performance on You’re a Stranger (MBS Records).The song deals with a woman disappointed and hurt when her lover becomes a stranger.But disappointment is not devastation, and Kennedy’s authoritative voice conveys a confident personality in this well-produced, commercial single.The Canadian industry’s winner of the 1983 National Talent Fi- nals has what it takes to become a major artist in country music.Ginny Mitchell sounds a lot more confident on the new Hold Whatcha Got (Music Connection) than she did on her recent single, Burning a Hole in My Heart.She expresses a light-hearted, care-free love on this Jimmy Martin classic about a lover who’s on the road and is coming home.With lines like “Don’t sell the house, Don’t wreck the car,’’ Martin probably intended the song for a man, but Mitchell has command of the lyrics with solid, if not imaginative, production from Mark Schatz.After a couple of mediocre singles, Bruce Golden comes up with his best effort yet on Midnight Ride (Snocan).The song is about a tender one-night stand, and despite Bobby Lalonde’s cliche lyrics ("You’re the one I’ve been dreaming of.An angel from above”), Golden’s studio experience is beginning to show in a much more confident delivery.Producer Terry Carisse gives imaginative support to his artist’s solid baritone.Now if Golden can just find some songs that say something.CKTS/90 • PM Music Chart NO.TITLE ARTIST WEEK ON 1.Let’s Go Crazy Prince 1 8 2.Caribbean Queen Billy Ocean 5 9 3.1 Just Called to Say I Love You Stevie Wonder 10 6 4.Missing You John Waite 2

rekindled feelings on meeting an old flame.The Merceys’ four-part harmonies are smooth and technically excellent, but the group doesn’t seem capable of emotional depth in the delivery.The listener should feel the man’s pain when a chance meeting makes him realize he’s still in love.Instead, we get a nice, pleasant record with no punch.Robert Bouchard shows a marked improvement over pre- Rosie (Comstock).Phrasing is the key and Bouchard does a commendable job on Sonny Throckmorton’s lyrics about the disintegration of a relationship between a travelling sa lesman and the woman who’s left at home.The flip side, We’d Make a Great Country Song, is an interesting story about a couple who see their lives reflected in the lyrics of country songs.Denny Eddy’s current single is the kind of record that should never have been released.This is not mediocre — this is BAD.On Why Can’t I Go Home (Van-harbour), Eddy is obviously singing in too high a key.Sounding old-timey is not the same as sounding slack, and the production slouches along as if the musicians may expire at any moment.On the flip side, Mary Jo, Eddy is more comfortable with the key, but his limited vocal ability does nothing to bring ordinary lyrics to life.£a Hanterne RESTAURANT-BAR r~ L Specialty BEEF RIBS 825 Charcoal Steaks other things to discover H -J 70 rue du Lac, Magog open Thursday to Sunday from 6:00 to

STANDING IN THE LINE OF FIRE (ATTIC) Recently resuscitated by the artistic compassion of “the Boss”, the owner of a couple of lesser legends of the pop scene in the sixties yanks yet another album out of his minor store of talents.Gary U.S.Bonds, of whom Bruce Springsteen has declared: “There’s some guys out there, what they do is forever”, had a pair of chart successes circa 1960-1961 — “New Orleans” and “Quarter To Three”.The latter song be-came one of Springsteen’s concert closing encores, which kept the R&B crossover rocker’s image alive.This album is the third in the recycled Bonds’ career, except Springsteen and Little Steven are not aboard as producers.Gary Anderson (his first single was shipped with the promo angle to get D.J.’s to play a disc that had “Buy U.S.Bonds” on the sleeve, and the name stuck!) cowrote four of the songs on the album.Best traks are “You Are The One”, and the title track, which certainly has Springsteen’s influences in its guitar lines, and “I Wish I Could Dance Like Fred Astaire”.Gary U.S.Bonds is one of the few black per-formerss (Chuck Berry and Richard Pennimann, the two epochal exceptions, of course) to blend traditional rhythm and blues with the rock and roll sound.On his latest album Bonds shows that the scales are tipping even more toward the rock side in his composing and performing.I W.«A^GANÉüi BODY ROCK SOUNDTRACK (EMI-AMERICA-CAPITOL) The current counterparts to the blight of beach-blanket bingo cinema sexploitatives of the Frankie Avalon/Annette Funicello period of drought in the pop music saga seems to be the breakdancing flicks.Latest in this parade of films begun by “Flas-hdanee” and continued by “Footloose” is titled “Body Talk”.The music from the film includes songs from Dwight Twilley, Mar- Kaleidoscope 4 By RICHARD LONEY tin Briley, Laura Branigan, and Ashford & Simpson.Twilley’s “Why You Wanna Break My Heart” appears to be one track that could cut loose from the soundtrack to float into the easy listening category of rock success.Ditto the ballads from Roberta Flack or Ashford & Simpson such as “The Closest To Love” by the popular Motown duo.Phil Ramone has been handed the task of bringing the diversified musical contributors to “Body Talk” into some kind of artistic harmony.Initial impressikons of the male lead, Lorenzo Lamas (a son of Fernando?) point out his similarities to John Travolta both in rugged matinee idol handsomeness and being unburdened with a great deal of acting savvy.Two songs that stand out from the synthesized, dancey tracks here are one from newcomer Baxter Robertson, “Vanishing Point”, and the Martin Briley song, “Deliver”.With the popularity of the soundtracks to “The Big Chill”, and “Diner” in mind, get set for a movement from rock videos on T.V.toward more and more rock fusion between celluloid and pop music.% - » \ T*' Y* ;V 8/ TEACHERS SOUNDTRACK (CAPITOL-EMI) Case in point, the Nick Nolte film which sees plot scavengers turning from the exhaustively mined fields of hospitals and cop-shops to the cafeterias, gymnasiums and staff rooms of high schools.Blame it on Porkys! The soundtrack of “Teachers” manages to incorporate some contribution — of presently hot video performers such as Freddie Mercury of Queen, the bearded sultans of badass rock, Z.Z.Top, Bob Seger and Night Ranger.An energized track by .38 Special gets the album off to a rousing Doraville, Georgia start, followed by a tune by a lesser known entity called Roman Holliday, who are nevertheless produced by the familiar Robert John “Mutt” Lange, which ensures that they are a lively crew.Joe Cocker contributes a track that was written by Bryan Adams, “Edge of A Dream”, who also wrote the movie’s title theme, “Teacher Teacher”, sung by .38 Special.Touted by promo folk as the sleeper album of the back to school fall season, “Teachers” contains all original material not previously released — with the one exception of a live, funky ver- sion of one of Z.Z.Top’s tunes, “Cheap Sunglasses”.Even if the movie continues to draw critical grade sheets of a failing nature, the rock soundtrack looks as if it passes all the tests for extracurricular acceptance.BOOK REVIEW Frost At Christmas by R.D.Wingfield (POCKET): $3.50, 284 PP Some of the most endearing qualities of fictional detective heroes have been their revelation of feet of clay and their human foibles—Sherlock Holmes’ seven per cent solution of a controlled substance, Sam Spade’s almost fatal alliance with Brigid ÔS-haughnessy, Philip Marlowe’ glib pessimism amid the sordid Los Angeles culture he surveys.For R.D.Wingfield’s detective, Jack Frost, the everyday business of being an Inspector in the small English town of Denton is almost too much to bear.Frost is a thoroughly engaging, scruffy personality, loved by his fellow officers, but the thorn in the side of his efficient supervisors.Frost At Christmas is at once a police procedural novel, though less familiar than the North American versions because of the British police’s investigative practices.At the same time it is a narrative which concentrates on revealing the eccentric, curmudgeonly personality of the likeable, authority-defying Jack Frost.To pull off this style of character revelation while a number of quite intriguing crim cases engage the Denton constabulary is no mean feat.Wingfield turns Frost loose on a case of kidnapping in which an eight-year-old girl goes missing when her mother fails to pick her up at the conclusion of her Sunday school lesson.The fact that the girl’s mother is engaged in the world’s oldest profession adds a novel touch to the story, and affords Frost a number of opportunities to lapse into jokes that his young sidekick Clive Barnard finds tasteless but typical.R.D.WINGFIELD 4T- .Af As Frost muddles along on the kidnapping, which has all the possibilities of becoming a child molesting case also, the uncovering of a skeletal corpse with a metal box chained to its arm further complicates the Denton force’s December schedule.Jack Frost struggles with the mountainous sheets of paperwork, being saddled with the Chief Constable’s nephew in the rookie Barnard, his immediate supervisor’s overbearing attitude, and the investigation of the missing girl and exhu- med skeleton, while the quaint British types encountered in the daily rounds keep the reader completely entertained.This novel is R D.Wingfield's initial forray into the quite crowded atmosphere of detective fiction, but Frost At Midnight is a remarkable debut, and introduces a detective whose return will be welcomed, thanks to the very real characterization that has gone into the memorable Inspector Jack

many objects from this era.t"- ' * > m, By Louise Léger COATICOOK — Visitors need only to set foot in the Beaulne Museum to get a taste of the past.Not only does the museum offer numerous exhibits dipicting Quebec heritage, but the house itself is a stately reminder of days gone by The museum keeps several permanent exhibits and also has monthly shows to promote local tradition.Thursday, October 17 until November 18 the works of the local Cercles des Fermières will be on display.This farm women's group has branches all over the province and has a long history in Quebec.There is a large variety of items on display ranging from needlepoint and embroidered pieces to wall hangings, crocheted items and quilts.The works are from six cercles, three from Coaticook, and one from each Stanstead, Waterville and St.Edwidge.Pierre Jean, the Beaulne Museum’s curator, says this is the third year such an exhibit is being held.“We want to get people involved and we want to appeal to all kinds of clienteles.This gives people the chance to expose their work, and gives others a chance to enjoy local art.” BUILT IN 1912 The building the museum now occupies was built in 1912 by A.O.Norton, a successful entrepreneur.His invention of the ball bearing lifting jack brought him fame and wealth The Norton family were well-known for their devotion to the Anglican Church and their contribution to arts and education.The Norton Annex at Sherbrooke Hospital and Norton Hall at Bishop’s University were made possible by family gifts.In 1942, Helen Norton, the last to inherit the house which was often known as simply the “château”, gave the house to the Church of England Female Orphan Assylum of Quebec, and it was known as Bishop Mountain Home until 1968 when the house became a lodging for Dixville Home residents.The city of Coaticook bought the building in 1976, and the Beaulne Museum relocated.Presently the Beaulne Museum has three storeys or 5000 square feet for exhibits in the Norton house, but it was not always that way.The Beaulne Museum began in 1963 when Coaticook was celebrating its centennial anniversary and a decision was made to collect antiques for the occasion.At this time Denise Beaulne was approached to donate and collect objects which reflected the heritage of the town.After the centennial celebrations were over she continued for ten years to donate objects she had restored herself.At this time the museum occupied a corner of Coaticook’s town hall.With pressure from the municipal council, the museum was moved to the third floor of the old post office.In 1975 the museum received its charter and moved to Norton House soon after, where it has continued to expand over the years.SHOWCASE OF TRADITION Situated in the residential section of the town and surrounded by a large lot with many trees, the location for this showcase of past tradition couln’t be better.The building itself is huge, with chimneys and pillars outside, and high ceilings and wood trim inside.There are four permanent exhibits: the Victorian room, the dining room, the Norton room and a display of religious costumes.The Victorian room, representing the period from 1885 to 1915, contains antique furniture in mahogany and walnut including a unique fireplace bench, an inlaid chessboard table and an old or- See next page.I his month the works oj several 1

table and antique china and silverware.Complementing the presentation of the Victorian era is a bedroom on display temporarily which is notable for its old-fashioned wash stand its many Roman Catholic artifacts.The display of religious costumes concentrates on traditional nuns’ costumes from various orders in each province over the past 100 years.It is remarkable to learn that there are so many different costumes.Jean says he has 110 costumes and he displays 48 at a time and switches them every few months.Each costume is worn by 61 centimetre tall dolls and is made of the original material.In some cases the outfits may look similar but a closer look will show that the fabrics are different or the color is not quite the same.The Norton Room contains photographs of the building and its interior taken in 1942, along with pictures of the Nortons, the original ball-bearing jack invented by Norton and other memorabilia from the Norton family.ONE-ROOM SCHOOLHOUSES A most interesting and comprehensive exhibit has been on display for the past year, and will remain until November.Located on the third floor of the house, the traditional schoolroom successfully reminds visitors of old-fashioned education.Not only are The Norton Room displays the history of the Norton family including this bust of A.O.Norton.Photos by Perry Beaton there rows of old-fashioned desks and a wood stove, but displays include old notebooks of school children, agenda books of teachers, pictures of local one-room school-houses and several photos of students from the first half of the century.There are even little reminders of old-fashioned discipline with a display of wooden clackers once used to bring the class to attention.Protestant Churches of the Coaticook area, another temporary exhibit, is a sampling of photographs of these structures accompanied by a brief history of each and a video of Anglican churches of Quebec.The presentation gives a good representation of the architecture and the beliefs of the Protestants and covers a wide area of the Towns hips.Particularly notable is the St.James’ the Apostle Anglican Church in Hatley.Built in 1828, it is one of the oldest churches in the Townships.TWO QUEBEC CULTURES The video and historical accounts accompanying the exhibit are offered in English as well as in French, as are the commentaries accompanying the other displays.“We represent the two Quebec cultures here,” Jean says, “so we offer bilingual exhibits.Both En glish and French have a history here.” There are many pieces of contemporary local artwork hanging at the museum, which are switched every few months.“We like to encourage local artists,” Jean says.Jean is enthusiastic about every aspect of the museum.“We offer a lot of interesting exhibits, and we try to cover as much as possible that will interest visitors.Our goal is to spread knowledge of local history and present our heritage.We are a non-profit organization but we have many donors and many volunteers who help out.” “We get about 15,000 visitors a year, ’ he says.“We are open all year round and we are flexible — if groups want to visit we will arrange a convenient

WEEK—FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1984 Heritage Museum displays communication devices By Joan McCoy Ling When you enter the Heritage Museum in Sutton and see that it’s set up as an old-fashioned country store, you might not realize that it is a museum of communications.But as the visitor is guided through the three floors of the museum, it is easy to see how our ancestors did what everybody needs to do — communicate with each other.The first floor is set up like a country store, but in one comer sits a replica of the first telephone office in Sutton, since the first telephone office was in a general store.In years past, Bell Telephone was unheard of.Telephone companies were privately owned and usually incorporated with another business, like a general store offering anything and everything to the consumer.There is also see a cabinet showing the different medicines made and bottled in the area as long as one hundred years ago.For those who wonder what used to be in those strange little bottles you collect, chances are there’s one like it at the museum.The second floor shows an old-fashioned post office, also incorporated into the general store.It also features telegraphic equipment.The first telegraph was a simple machine.It consisted of a piece of wood resembling a hollow log and two wooden sticks.Anyone who has watched jungle films has a good idea how it works.The other telegraphic equipment is more progressive including keyboard styles.One interesting piece is the fire telegraph machine.Heritage Sutton has the oldest fire telegraph machine and also a fire alarm transmitter, a very rare piece as there were only a few made.The basic prin cipal was that when there was a fire, a telegraphed message was sent to the fire alarm transmitter, which, with wheels in motion, would transmit a message to the station closest to the fire sounding the alarm.Also on display are radio an gramophone units.Some of the collection include radios used in the first world war.Edmund Eberdt, Curator for the museum, remarked that most people think that people like Marconi were the first ones to invent broadcast equipment.“Actually,” said Eberdt, “he could only telegraph messages.A man of this area, Reginald Fessenden, was the first to broadcast a (voice) message.” Fessenden was born in Austin in 1866, and eventually lived in the Mansonville area.In 1906 he gave his first radio broadcast.“He was a stubborn man though,” said Eberdt, “he didn’t get along well with people.As a result of that, he spent a lot of his later years in the courts, getting back the patents to his inventions.” One wall in the museum is covered with photos from early telephone offices of the area — Sutton, Knowlton, Mansonville, etc., and the first operators who ran them.Eventually, Bell Canada moved in and bought up all the independent telephone companies.“Sutton has always been a link in international communication” Eberdt says.“In 1836, a stagecoach line between the United States and Canada stopped at Sutton.In 1866 a railroad was built linking Sutton to American cities.” That was the South Eastern Railroad Company, later the CPR.The Heritage Museum opened to the public in September of 1982.Before that, the land had been purchased by the Eberdt Family, the building was renovated, and Eberdt had a private museum of communications equipment that he had collected in his twenty years as a communications engineer.In March of 1983, Heritage Sutton was formed.This non-profit organization was formed to run and maintain the museum.It now has over one hundred members.They maintain the museum, do research on the history of the This complex piece of equipment, the oldest of Us kind around, was used to send telegrams to the nearby fire station when there was a

the world.A federal grant kept the museum staffed and open all summer.At this moment it is open by appointment only, but Eberdt said that the group is expecting another grant which will once again open it everyday.A small fee is normally charged to view the museum and a discount given to some school groups etc.when there is a need.“We have support from our federal government,” said Eberdt, “but what we need is strong support from our provincial government”.An old-fashioned post office is set up on the second floor of the museum.POST'ÜfTit I The Heritage Museum in Sutton not only displays

WEEK—FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1984—7 WOman works to prevent cruelty to animals on sets LOS ANGELES (Reuters) — Actress Carmelita Pope has endless film horror stories to tell — of a horse being blown up by dynamite, dogs being made to attack seals and animals being killed to provide blood for fight scenes.Pope has become Hollywood’s guardian of animals, a bustling member of the American Humane Association who spends her weeks reading scripts and watching films for signs of cruelty.“Hollywood has pretty much cleaned up its act, but we still have problems with films made overseas,” she said.So far this year, her association has declared four films, all made abroad, “unacceptable” because of animal cruelty, and they will be picketed if shown in the United States.In past films, galloping horses and camels have been tripped with wires, dogs forced to swim in icy waters and sheep driven over cliffs.Animals have died on film sets from stress, Pope said.RECALLS HORROR She also recalled a horror story recently told to her by actor James Whitmore about a western film made several years ago."Whitemore said the actors were on their horses every day and became fond of them.A scene at the end of the picture called for the horses to be shot.“When the scene was filmed the actors were horrified to discover the horses really were shot.The actors were told it was just as easy to shoot the horses as to sedate them.” Five field officers of the American Humane Association now go on film sets to ensure animals are not being treated cruelly."The officers, who wear uniforms, have the power to arrest, but we find publicity is a pretty good weapon,” Pope said.WON RIGHTS The association won the right in 1980 to be allowed on all sets of films being made in the United States with trade union members, to be notified of films involving animals and to receive advance scripts.Pope not only reads the scripts but watches films with members of the Classification and Ratings Administration who decide how films should be classified for public viewing.Pope’s association is the only organization given this privilege."There was just so much cruelty in films in 1979 that we went to the Screen Actors’ Guild (the actors’ trade union) and said we can’t let this continue," Pope said.“When we pointed out the abuses that were taking place, the guild was shocked." she said."When the guild next negotiated with film producers on a new labor contract, our provisions to protect animals were included.The producers accepted our provisions whole-heartedly.” Pope said she became involved in animal welfare in films because she has always loved animals."I learned of some of the dreadful problems for animals in this country when I made a tour in 1972 discussing pet care,” she said.“When the American Humane Association invited me to be its director in Hollywood, I did not hesitate before accepting.“Having a show business background has helped me.I understand the egos involved when I talk to producers.” Who’s who By TADEUSZ LETARTE Tadeusz Leiarte's column is not available this week.He called to say he has joined the Ronald Reagan presidential campaign, which seems

Tenor Luciano Pavarotti hopes Chicago opera patrons understand, but he is staying home in Modena, Italy, with his sick daughter instead of performing in Verdi’s Ernani at the Chicago Lyric Opera.The entire seven-performance run of the opera, with Pavarotti in the title role, has been sold out since early summer, said Lyric general manager Ardis Krainik.A replacement will be announced, Krainik

19, 1984 WHAT’S ON Music Well we have an abundance of some rather special events coming up this week although I’m sure they'll not be to everybody’s taste — but variety is the spice, they say First of all, the Orchestre National de Lille, under the direction of Jean-Claude Casadesus, is in the middle of its first-ever North American tour and has decided to pay a visit to Sherbrooke while they’re at it.They’ll be tuning up for a concert this Tuesday night at the Salle Maurice O’Bready at the University of Sherbrooke which begins at 8:30.The program for this concert consists of two pieces by Lille native Edouard Lalo — Le Roid’Ys and Symphonie Espagnol featuring violinist Pierre Amoyal The program concludes with Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky — Ravel.Now this is a relatively young orchestra — having been founded by Casadesus in 1976 — but in its short career it has succeeded in bringing a wide variety of music to audiences throughout Northern France.Still in the classical mode, Histiop's aimbrrBitp's Centennial Theatre plays host this week to some insiders Tom Gordon and Mary O’Keefe, a husband and wife piano duo who will be performing a program of French and German compositions for keyboard ensemble.Gordon, who is now the Chairman of the Bishop's music department and O’Keefe who has taught at Champlain, Bishop’s and U of T besides giving private instruction, have been performing as a team for some ten years now and have entertained throughout Quebec and Ontario.The concert is on Wednesday evening at 8 p.m.and includes Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto no.6 and the Hindemith Sonato for Piano, four-hands.On the French side, to lighten upon all that Teutonic intensity the two will tackle Emmanual Chabrier’s Souvenirs de Munich and François Poulenc's Sonata for Four Hands.Tickets, on sale at the Centennial Box Office are only $3 ($2 for students and seniors) — a real bargain.Lightening things up even more this week is another show at the Salle Maurice O’Bready with the 100-plus company of Up With People.This is your old-fashioned rosy cheeked, wholesome-as-buttermilk-but-not-as-hard-to-swallow kind of entertainment that provides music, dance and oodles and oodles of energy just to make all us geezers feel bad.It’s a power-packed show, however, and is guaranteed to be able to entertain the whole family without offending anybody (except the above-mentioned geezers).The company is performing two shows, Wednesday and Thursday, October 24-25 at 8 p.m Tickets range from $8 to $11 but you can save $2 if you buy them in advance.Lightening things up even further, there’s something rather interesting going on this weekend at the Salle Bur-rough’s Falls down to Ayer' s Cliff.David Scott, whom many may remember as the lead in the 1980 film This is Elvis’ Story, is performing along with The Tuxedo Band tonight, Saturday and Sunday.Scott will be giving us his renditions of old rock and roll favorites as well as some country tunes and if he didn’t hate Elvis Presley so much, Mikey might just be interested in checking this show out.There are two shows per night — at 10 and at 00:30 (half-past midnight) for tonight and tomorrow, and at 4:30 and 9:30on Sunday.Tickets are $3 on Friday and Sunday and $4 on Sunday.For more info call (819) 838-4834.Calvin’s brought back an old favorite we haven’t seen in a while this weekend in the form of The Jimmy James Band a hard-rockin' very enjoyable outfit that seems to blend right in with the FL Hideaway’s select clientele.The upstairs bar at the Manoir Waterville and its new management welcome Big Foot back to one of their old haunts this Saturday night, providing the kind of get-into-it country-rock that made this band a perennial favorite in that establishment not that many years ago.1 understand the band will be there Saturdays at least until New Year’s which is good news.What is also good news is a planned Hallowe’en Party next Saturday.Go for it, fellas.In Ayer’s Cliff at the Shady Crest, the ever-popular Concordes are back again for the complete weekend and will be churning out the C and W there for the rest of October At the Del Monty down at the border in Rock Island, the rock band Walker livens things up this weekend right until Saturday night.At The Maples in Stanstead (not to be confused with the Pointe Claire den of iniquity, inquietude, and insobriety of the same name) continues with Ramblin Fever this weekend and until the end of October.The Bretagne on route 143 has its all-time favorite Carrousels Country Riders back and I wouldn’t be surprised if old Gordie nails them to the floor to keep ’em there.Well like the man said, if it works don’t fix it.Station 88 way out thar in South Stukely continues this month with its Friday and Saturday presentations of Syndicate Revival.These guys will also be staying put for a while.At the Auberge Glen Sutton tonight and Saturday, the unusual, volatile, but extremely talented keyboardist Alan Gerber takes to the stage to bring us his version of the By MICHAEL McDEVITT Muse.Gerber once terrorized the Quebec music scene when teamed up with the notorious Jim Zeller back in the olden days and has since been carrying on a rather hectic solo career.It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Gerber, but if he still cavorts with as much energy as he used to, then I want some of that baby food too.Admission is $3 and the music starts somewhere around 9 p.m.On Saturday night at the Salle Jean-Paul in Bury, Brian Lowry and The Country Kings take to the platform to provide some country tunes out that way.Admission is $5 a couple and $3 a head.Fall in love and save a buck.At The Hut in Lennoxville this Saturday, the veterans are celebrating a Clan Gathering featuring the lovely sounds of the Black Watch Veterans Pipeband.This should be a wild one as I have heard that dedicated Scotsmen are sometimes capable of having a reasonably good time.Rod Bray and the Countrymen will also be on hand for when the pipers are wetting their whistles.At the infamous Island Brook Fish and Game Club this (what’s an island brook fish?) Saturday, the folks who are game for fish are having an oyster supper at the Hotel Crête in beautiful downtown Sawyerville starting at 5:30.Providing the tunes for this gastronomical anomaly (I know it don’t make sense but say it three times fast) will be the rebuilt Bourbon and Lace with their country music.Tickets are $10 a head but it’ll be worth it.Adolescent prank of the week: Put a raw oyster in your mouth and go give your granny a big wet kiss to the mouth.Make sure you’re still in the will first.Finally, at La Rive Gauche in Sherbrooke they’re still presenting live blues jams every Monday night.I hear that things can get hopping pretty good down there.The musicians bring the tunes you bring the mood.Music starts around 10.Exhibitions/events At the Bishop’s — Champlain Art Gallery a rather imaginative exhibit has been arranged which is called Conservation : To Care for Art.The purpose of the show is to educate people in the proper care and storage of artwork so that time and the elements don’t get the chance to damage them.Four graduates of the Corcordia University Master’s program in Canadian Art History have assembled a highly-informative package which will help the amateur collector preserve porcelaine and glass, photography, and paintings.Information on the proper hanging and display of artwork is also offered.The show continues until October 26, and the gallery, located in Marjorie Donald House on the Bishop’s campus, is open weekdays from 11a.m.until 3 p.m.La Galerie Canard de Bois is presenting the paintings of Monique Harvey, an imaginative Montreal artist.Her work will be on display from Saturday, October 20 until October 27.At HORACE on King west in Sherbrooke the exhibitions by Christa Kotiesen and Philippe Boissonnet and Ariane Théxé remain until October 28.Since I first saw Kotiesen’s work I’ve been trying to find the right words to describe it, and I really can’t.Her paintings are deceptively simple at first glance but evoke a mysterious even gloomy sense of loneliness and isolation —almost Kafkaesque, actually.They’re quite intriguing.Boissonnet and Thézé have each assembled a separate show devoted the problems of capturing the human body in art.Their approaches are modernistic and a little graphic but the consisyency of the theme tends to bind them together.Thought-provoking stuff, this, but a little beyond Mikey’s personal taste.The gallery is open from noon to 5 p.m.from Tuesdays to Fridays and from 1 to 5 on weekends.She’s closed on Mondays.Joyce Shweitzer-Cochrane has the floor all to herself with her A City Girl Adopts the Country exhibit at the Caisse Populaire de poerpetuel Secours on the corner of Ontario and Prospect streets in Sherbrooke.This showe is all recent work and the title pretty well explains the theme of thew show.Cochrane is one of Mikey’s favorites and there’s nothing in her paintings not to like as far as I can tell, but then again, what do I know.Anyhoo, the exhibit lasts until the 26th and can be viewed during regular banking hours.The Sherbrooke Trust Collection en Arts series continues this month with a showing of work by Weedon artist Jean-nine Bourret.Bourret is a painter and engraver of particular talent and has exhibited all over Quebec as well as in Toronto and New york.She has also done some illustration for children’s book covers.The exhibit can be seen at the trust branch at Carrefour de l’Estrie.At the Point de Vue gallery at the College de Sherbrooke on Parc Street, Yvan Tremblay is exhibiting some 15 of his most recent acrylic and oil paintings.The Point de Vue is open from 8:15 a m.to 9 p.m.from Monday through Thursday and from 8:15 to 5 on Friday.She’s closed weekends.At the Caisse Populaire de Sherbrooke-est on the King-Bowen comer in Sherbrooke Richard Sylvestre is exhibiting his paintings until November 2.Sylvestre has an interesting and colorful approach to his art and his portraits demonstrate a rather novel line perspective and his work is generally quite pleasant.The exhinbiton can be seen during the caisse’s rather complicated ‘normal’ business day, which is from 10 to 3 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays,from 10to5:45 on Wednesdays and from lOtoSon Fridays.Got that?At the Léon Marcotte Exhibition Centre on Frontenac Street, an exhibit of the Natural Science Collection of the Quebec Ministry of Cultural Affairs begins on Sunday.This collection, now permanently housed in the Séminaire de Sherbrooke Museum, features examples of many of the province’s species of birds and insects.The folks down there have been saving this one for us for quite a while now, and thisa show offers an outstanding opportunity to get a quick look at the diversity of our airborne wildlife.The show continues until November 18.At the Laurier Museum in Arthabaska the exhibition of works by Sherbrooke-bom painter Paule Genest, an artist who has exhibited worldwide to enthusiastic response This show continues until October 28.In the evnts department, the Centre Notre-Dame de l’Enfant is holding as fund-raising Spaghetti Supper this Sunday for the benefit of its many social programs.The supper is being held at the Centre at 1621 Prospect in Sherbrooke from 4:30 to 8.For further information call Philippe Sharpe at (819) 567-8471 — and don’t eat too much.Finally, in celebration of the 75th anniversary of St-Vincent de Paul hospital here in Sherbrooke, the good folks there are having a wine and cheese dégustation (tasting) bash this Saturday evening at the Belvedere Street Armory bewginning at 7:30 Tickets for this evening of fine inges-tibles cost $18 but you can be sure it will be worth it.Also the hospital has set up several information kiosks at the Carrefour de l’Estrie for this week which will serve to enlighten us on all aspects of the hospital’s work.It is a thorough and extensive display series that will be taking up a good deal of space in the Carrefour’s centre and in the Eaton store.Theatre/Dance Just two items here, beginning with the performances at Centennial Theatre of Alligator Pie, the adaptation of David Lee’s children’s poetry by the Theatre Passe-Muraille.The show brings to life the exuberant poetry found in Lee's classics like Garbage Delight (I’ve eaten there), Nicholas Knock and Alligator Pie (that’s what I had.) There are five performances of this inspired kiddie show but I am informed that the first four are all sold out.The final show, Tuesday, October 23 at 7 p.m.is not sold out yet though and that may be a good thing.As usual, Centennial’s manager Jill ‘call me Jane’ Gyorgy has worked out suitable relations with local school boards to render her excellent season of children’s performances accessible to the kids.However, during a fit of incomprehensible clear-headedness, La Gyorgy realized that in this area of the Kaybec, an awful lot of English kids are attending French schools and thus will not be brought to the shows by their schools.In response to this situation, an early evening performance for the pan-cultural younger set.Good thinking.In any event, there are tickets available for this final show, so if you’ve got kids in the French school system, and don’t want them to miss out on this very special show, you have been accommodated.Tickets are an exceptionally reasonable $5 a head.Also at Bishop’s University is Line, a play presented by TOWNSHIPS WKKK~FKIDAY.OCTOBER 19, 1984- 9 WHAT’S ON the university’s drama department this weekend.Showtime is 8:00 Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.And for all you dance fans out there, hop in the car and scoot over to West Brome either tomorrow or Sunday to catch the show by 14 members of Les Grands Ballets Canadiens at the Old Brick Church.The company will be performing excerpts from their repertoire including snippets from The Nutcracker, Quest, Capriccio, Giselle and Seascape.The performances take place Saturday at 8 p.m.and Sunday at 3 p.m.and — may wonders never cease — there is no admission fee, cover charge, bribe or donation requested.I dunno how they do it, but do it they do.Movies Still nothing happening down at the Capitol but when there is I promise you’ll be among the first couple of hundred to know.At the Cinémas Carrefour this week the Teachers have been held after school for at least one more week.After my comments of last week, I was informed by my favorite death instructor (who shall remain nameless) that it is actually pretty good.Graham Moodie (who shall also remain nameless) agreed wholeheartedly.So what can I tell you.It’s still the only one in town.Out in Cowansville, the Cinéma Princesse has decided to investigate serious cinematic efforts this week with two all-time classics Bachelor Party and Revenge of the Nerds.There is so much one can say about such efforts and so few people fool enopugh to publish it, that Mikey will refrain from undue comment and move on.Moving on, we end up somehow in Newport, Vt, U.S.A.where the Merrill’s Showplace Cinemas are featuring one new film this week and it’s called The Wild Life the new product from the folks who brought us Phoebe Cates in Fast Times at Ridgemount High.In the other two showplaces Revenge of the Nerds is back again as is Ninja 3.The Pifcop’a Wmbtrsit?fibn frocirty is featuring only one film this week, the wild but wonderful Diner.This is one of those rare films that jumps above the level of its genre and actually provides some pretty good chuckles.The film will be screened on Sunday at 7 p.m.at Centennial Theatre.Tickets are $2 for Bish students, $2.50 for other students (with card) and $3 for people.And that is all she wrote.Television Vermont ETV satires American WASPish typicality tonight at 9 with

on Vermont ETV Bette Davis and Mary Astor star in the The Great Lie.When a man is lost in a plane crash in the jungles of South America, his wife and pregnant ex-lover must come to terms with their relationships with him and each other.Astor won an Oscar for her performance.te».Ian Flatow returns to host a new season of Newton’s Apple Sunday October 21 at 7:30 pm on Vermont ETV.On Saturday rock music fans have a lot to look forward to, beginning at 8 with a concert by Elton John on Radio-Québec.In the meantime Channel 12 is also offering a rock concert at 8, this one by The Stray Cats recorded in Toronto.Personally, Mikey dislikes this band and its 1950s style rock and roll simply because there is no point to it.The stuff these guys are copying was a lot better than they are, and I figure you don’t do something over again unless it’s to improve it.This band would probably be alright at a high school dance, but on record they don’t quite make it.At 9, Vermont ETV takes the spotlight again with The Devil and Daniel Webster, an absolutely superb fanatasy about a New England man who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for wealth.When the time comes for him to fulfill his part of the bargain, he turns to the legendary lawyer Daniel Webster for help.On Sunday at 8 Vermont ETV’s Nature series presents Fragments of Eden a look at the wide variety of wildlife that

presents a pre-election special called The Paterson Project a look at how the past four years of Ronald Reagan’s policies have affected a New Jersey city and four of its families.At midnight, channel 12 presents Scan Connery and Audrey Hepburn in a thoroughly charming tale Robin and Marian.Twenty years after their glory days, Robin Hood and Maid Marian—now the Mother Superior of a religious order about to be imprisoned — meet again and Robin, middle-aged and tired, attempts one last heroic rescue.This is great fun this film, and both Connery and Hepburn shine.On Tuesday at 8 on CBC, The Fifth Estate looks at the case of Fred Elgart, a British Columbia father appalled by the availability of drugs who decided to take the law in his own hands and murdered to Quebec men suspected of being dealers.Elgart originally received a one-year sentence, but that was increased by an Appeal Court judge with a little better sense of perspective.At 8.30, Radio-Québec continues its presentation of spectacular films with La Guerre du Feu (Quest for Fire) a look at prehistoric man.At 9, Vermont ETV’s excellent Frontline offers a look at women in American politics with Just One of the

10—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1984 Travel —____9*31 reconi South Africa’s Garden has many holiday attractions CAPE TOWN — A drive South Africans urge visitors to take is along the Garden Route - A scenery-packed stretch of countryside embracing natural forest, lush valleys, long white beaches and sparkling lagoons.Although the Route proper encompasses only the 234 km (145 miles) from Mossel Bay to Storms River, a more practical definition places it over the 815 km (506 miles) stretch between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth.The drive includes a turn off to Oudtshoom, the center of South Africa’s ostrich-farming industry and site of the Cango Caves, deservedly rated among the most fascinating cavern complexes in the world.The Garden Route penetrates some of the most beautiful scenery on earth, separating mountains and sea (the Indian Ocean) in a region that doesn’t appear to have changed in the last million years or so.In spring (autumn in the Northern Hemisphere) between Cape Town and Worcester the visitor is overwhelmed by the stretches of brightly colored vygies (mesem-bryanthemums) found in the Karoo Garden on the descent from the heights of the Du Toil’s Kloof Pass to Worcester on the plain.Also a treat for flower lovers is Caledon with its lovely wildflo-wer gardens.It is there that the Dutch and English were lured some 200 years ago by the mineral springs and the relief they gave from such complaints as malaria, rheumatism and even asthma.In Victorian days a hotel was built at the site of the seven thermal springs, six hot and one strangely cool.The hotel was gutted by fire in 1946 and was never rebuilt, but there are three good one-star family hotels to welcome today’s tourists.The town is best known, however, for its flower sanctuary at Venster Rock just outside the town limits.Here heaths, proteas and gladioli blossom around a miniature lake while bluebells and orange chincherinchees provide a mass of color on the hillside.The traveller should plan to spend a bit more time in Swellen-dam than in most other places for South Africa’s first republic was established there.In 1745 the inhabitants of Swellendam rebelled against the Dutch East India Company and declared their independence.But a few months later, when the English took the Cape the rebels agreed to settle.The most famous building in Swellendam is the Drostdy (magistrate’s residence) which was built in 1745 by Johannes Rhe-nius, the first landdrost (magistrate).It was from there in 1795 that the landdrost of that day was deposed and Hermanns Steyn took over to rule as president of the Swellendam Republic.The superb scenery surrounding the town is highlighted by four peaks of the Langeberg range which were used by early farmers as natural sundials.Today they are still called the Ten « The white beaches and lush forests of South Africa make for some fine sightseeing.O’Clock, Eleven O’Clock, Twelve O’clock and One O’Clock Peaks.Beyond Swellendam, just off the national highway, is the Bon-tebok National Park, sanctuary of the rare chocolate brown and black antelope.In 1931 the last 34 of these animals, once widespread, were removed from poor grazing near Bredasdorp and today the herd numbers more than Japan prepares huge fairground TSUKUBA, Japan (Reuter) — Surrounded by a patchwork of paddy-fields to the north of Tokyo, thousands of workers are putting the final touches to an extensive fairground of science that will open to visitors next spring.They are completing the site of Expo 85, the latest in a long line of international science and industry exhibitions that stretches back into 19th-century Europe.Gaudy futuristic pavilions are emerging from a tangle of steel tubing and muddy ground, the future homes for robot theatres, computer halls, adventure rides and planétariums expected to draw 200,000 people a day.“It will introduce advanced aspects of world technology to the Japanese and overseas visitors just as we are approaching the 21st century,” said Akira Sugama, one of the organizers.The science jamboree will cost $2.3 billion and run for six months beginning March 16, 1985."It’s costing a lot of money, but we think it will have a good impact in making many Japa nese, especially young people, aware of current developments in science,” Sugama said.The idea of a science exhibi tion on a grand scale — the whole park covers about 100 hectares (250 acres) — came from Japanese industrialists in the late 1970s as a way to counter accusations that Japan’s scientists are less creative than those abroad.Most of the country’s big high-# technology companies, such as Sony, Toshiba, Mitsubishi and Matsushita Electric, maker of Panasonic equipment, will have large buildings on the site.About 40 exhibition halls will be occupied by foreign countries.TAKE THREE DAYS Sugama said it will take visitors three days to see everything, from old swordmaking skills to the latest thinking computer that talks with a similar computer in the United States Japanese government scientists will display a tomato plant — but no ordinary one.Their 10-metre-high plant will sit in a tank of water fed by the rays of the sun through optical glass fibres.At the height of the festival, it should be sporting 10,000 tomatoes.In the robot theatre, robots will stage plays, tinkle out tunes on a piano and even clear the stage after performances.In another theatre, audiences will watch video shows on the surface of a waterfall.The U S.pavilion will concentrate on artificial intelligence, the search for ways to make the computer think like a human being.The Soviet Union is expected to concentrate on its achievements in space.The exhibition will be home to what the organizers say will be the biggest ferris wheel in the world and the biggest television set, made by Sony.Standing outdoors, the Jum-botron TV will have a screen about as big as four tennis courts.The makers say the picture quality will be better than any home set.There will be cable cars ro ride on, high-speed trains powered by magnets, reproductions of some of the world’s ancient ruins and explanations of nuclear fission.And in an attempt to let their potential customers peer at the shape of things to come, Japan’s electronic companies will show some of the consumer products they may market in the next century.On show will be high-definition television sets with twice as many scanning lines as conventional sets, three-dimensional televisions, household robots and translating machines.200.The park, which covers 18 square kilometers (seven square miles), is open throughout the year.Mossel Bay, the beginning of the Garden Route proper, has everything to offer those who want a carefree holiday in the sunshine.It’s the center of big game fishing and possesses fine beaches.The town was named by a passing Dutch sea captain in 1595 intrigued by the abundance of mussels to be found there.About 443 km (275 miles) from Cape Town lies the town of George in the heart of the timber industry of the southwestern districts, and not far from George lies the Wilderness with its famous beachd, wide lagoon, entrancing scenery and excellent boating facilities.Today the Wilderness is one of the most popular Holiday resorts in South Africa.Its attractiveness is accentuated by the series of lakes along the national highway which runs between the lakes and the ocean.Each lake, it is said, is haunted, and Bushman paintings in which women are shown with tails like mermaids are to be found in a nearby cave.Eastern Transvaal offers magnificent terrain JOHANNESBURG — Even the most chauvinistic lover of the Cape will admit that the Eastern Transvaal is a region of magnificent terrain and undisputed beauty.The varying shades of blue enveloping the heights of the mountain ranges contrast vividly wuth the greenery below, the abundant plant life including kaffir trees, flamboyants and bougainvilleas.The big sight of the region is the Blyde River Canyon which American visitors to South Africa frequently compare to the Grand Canyon in Arizona although it is not as large or as deep.There are roads to the Eastern Transvaal that tourists should follow to obtain a glimpse into the fascinating history of the area as well as its rich flora and fauna.Along some of the roads you find traces of the early gold rush.Quaint names stir the imagination and are descriptive of the hardbitten, hard-drinking characters of those bygone days -French Bob, Yankee Dan, Spanish Joe, Charlie the Reefer, and place names such as Whisky Creek, Duke’s Hill, Baker’s Bliss, Bourke’s Luck, Pilgrim’s Creek and Sheba.For some inexplicable reason the early miners and prospectors called themselves pilgrims and Pilgrim’s Rest stands as a picturesque monument to their ambitions, quarrels and achievements.Memories of those times are also kept alive by descendants who like to recount tales concerning the exploits of the tough men who built and breathed life into the town.Today the Eastern Transvaal, which also encompasses one of the world’s great wildlife sanctuaries, Kruger National Park, is rightfully described as a vacationer’s paradise, and although it is exceptionally hot in summer (winter in the Northern Hemisphere) it stays relatively mild and warm in winter.Places that are especially recommended as being worth visiting, in addition to Kruger Park and Blyde River Canyon, include the beautiful Devil’s Kloof, Pilgrim’s Rest, Barberton, Sabie, White River, Nels-pruit and Loskop Dam.

summer season, representing a 17-per- 700 rooms are available in the Whistler Village.cent increase over the same period in 1982.And as the first snowflakes start falling high up the barren slopes of Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains, there is optimism that better times are ahead.“I think Whistler is maturing as a resort,” says Charles Ku, sales director for the 161-room Delta Mountain Inn, largest in the four-year-old village.“It’s becoming very competitive and recognized as a year-round resort.” The hotel closed for two months last fall because of slow business.But things have been different this year, with occupancy levels reaching 82 per cent in August.Terry Redmond, general manager of the Whistler Resort Association, laughs at this year’s marketing experience, which included $100,000 worth of advertising in Seattle and Vancouver area newspapers.The first ads invited readers to “get loose on a tight budget” at Whistler.LINES JAMMED The toll-free telephone lines soon were busy with prospective visitors — but there was a problem.“We assumed everybody knew where Whistler was.People said ‘You’ve got a great package.Where are you?”’ Subsequent ads detailed how to get to Whistler and included a small map.The resort is about two hours by car north from downtown Vancouver.Association occupancy rates are based on 700 rooms available in the village and another 1,000 in the

DALLAS (Reuter) — Dallas is a city of two faces and mighty proud of both of them.Home to millionaires with limousines and cowboys in pick-up trucks, to Cabernet sip-pers and beer drinkers, to quiche connoisseurs and chili eaters, Dallas proudly hawks itself as one of, if not, the greatest city in the United States.At a time when many major cities fret over their urban sprawl, this sun-scorched

tears to the eyes of the world with a bullet through the head of President John Kennedy Nov.22, 1963.There is a small square in town with a monument commemorating the dead president.But most residents appear to have put the past behind them.EVERYONE SMILES Everywhere there are smiles, big smiles, and a standard greeting: “Howdy.Where are you from?How do like Dallas?” They are not just asking.They really want to know.They do not always get the answer they naire is the fulfilment of a long-held dream: to help others and make money while doing it.DELIVER PETS “My company will pick up and deliver

on-call network.She contracts out the work to established firms, such as limousine services, resorts, restaurants and hotels.She said there is no flat fee for the services as each need is unique.“I heard from an elderly woman who wanted to move to Ladysmith on Vancouver Island.She didn’t have much money for such a long-distance move, so I managed through my contacts to get her and her possessions there for much less than was originally estimated.” Callighen’s credentials includes acting as press and promotions director for Edmonton millionaire Peter Poc-klington in his bid last year for the federal Conservative leadership.She has also worked as theatre publicity director, government administrator and public relations consultant."I wss born with an entreprenurial spirit,” she said.“I truly believe that when someone wants to do something, they can.” NO FREE LUNCH The only daughter of a Bell Canada foreman, Callighen and her brother Brett, a former Edmonton Oiler hockey player, were encouraged by their parents to achieve.“They taught us that there is no free lunch, that if you want to get ahead you have to work — and work hard.” Callighen plans to advertise her service in foreign magazines and develop a network to introduce individuals into the financial, media or entertainment communities in Canada.“The company allows me to do everything I want,” she said.“There is nothing I won’t do.” However, she draws the line at providing escort services for visiting businessmen.“That’s not the type of service I want to be part of.” TRANS-OCEAN TRAVEL INC.66

ago: a grass strip was laid along a beach, a plane brought in movie stars, and about as fast as you could say Errol Flynn, a resort was under way.Primitive hotels went up to house the Hollywood arrivals until they could build their own pleasure villas on hilltops.Stars included Johnny Weissmuller, John Wayne, Dolores del Ricardo Montalban, Merle Oberon — and Errol Flynn.In the 1950s the first modern hotels went up.Compared with the huge palaces that were later built to the east, these hotels in Old Acapulco are small but they have a Spanish colonial atmosphere.Old Acapulco is where the local people work, live and shop.They give the area a distinctive character and Mexican flavor the new resort area lacks.It doesn’t have the biggest beaches but it can be a cheaper area to holiday.SET MONEY ASIDE In 1983, after years of neglect in which some of the old hotels had become run-down and a little seedy, the city, national and state governments decided to set aside money to lend hoteliers for renovation and to clean up the streets, fix street lighting and preserve older buildings.New water purification and sewage systems and beach cleanups also helped to spruce up old Acapulco.A shining case of restoration is the Caleta Hotel Once an exclusive enclave for stars, tycoons and the late U.S.president Dwight Eisenhower, it was rundown and eventually closed for a year.Today, it blooms with new gardens and redecorated restau- rants, rooms and bars emphasizing its Spanish heritage.Art indoors and sculpture outdoors as well as an art gallery add to the pleasure of the new Caleta.El Mirador retains its polish and charm and is one inn that guests from the palatial hotels to the east visit as it’s a stop on some sightseeing tours.Groups sit with a drink in one of its restaurants and watch the famous cliff divers plunge more than 40 metres into the foaming surf.ON HILLS Between the small places with 20 or 40 rooms and the bigger hotels, there are 5,000 guest-rooms in old Acapulco.Most are on the tops of hills or cliffs with views of the bay, sail-boats and the Pacific.Not all are on beaches but most have swimming pools.The town square is the heart of the old district and its focus is a strange cathedral that looks like a mosque with its blue, white and gold domes.Six impressive banks flank it and ancient trees shade the square and the gingerbread bandshell, fountain and book stalls.Across the road are the town monuments and along the shore the fishing club, the yacht club and docks.There is a town hall, bullring, stores, jai alai centre, sidewalk cafes and a market where residents shop for their daily necessities and tourists look for bargains.The artisan centre nearby is a huge showplace stocked with 50,000 different things made in Mexico and sold without the usual 15-per-cent tax.There is so much to see — leather and onyx table-tops, silver, shoes, hand-blown glass, copper, brass, jewelry and paintings — that the centre de- serves more than an hour’s visit.PESO DEVALUED Because of the devalued peso, there are wonderful bargains — even for those with Canadian dollars.Acapulco goes back more than 450 years to when Hernando Cortez chose it for a port.Later it became important in the shipment of gold and silver from Peru and Chile and oriental pearls, silks, spices and jewels from Manila.They would go by mule across Mexico to Veracruz and across the Atlantic to Barcelona.After Mexico gained independence from Spain early in the 19th century, Acapulco declined into a drowsy fishing village until a road came through from Mexico City in 1927 and the first car chugged into town.Mexicans came for a seaside holiday and the rest is history.Guide-book advises how to be robbed and stay happy RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuter) — Brazil’s latest guide-book, on How to be Robbed and Stay Happy, may not be a favorite with the tourist agencies, but it is certainly raising wry smiles among those who share similar experiences with the author.Brazilian journalist Roberto Schneider says he was inspired to write O Guia do Assal-tado(The Mugging Victim's Guide) after he was robbed 138 times in 1976.Muggings in Brazil have climbed as the growing economic crisis and increasing unemployment have taken hold.Special anti mugging police sqauds patrol Rio’s famed beaches but still the muggers have a field day.The first chapter in the book of more than 100 questions and answers asks if one really needs to be robbed in the first place.The answer is an emphatic yes.Schneider asks one to look at someone who has not been robbed, his flaccid muscles, dull eyes, his lack of motivation Compare this with the agile deportment of a victim, eyes bright and alert, flicking constantly left and right, a rapid walk, erect hearing, toned muscles and prepared adrenalin level.TURN INTO PRO A professional victim may die from a my nad of reasons, but ne ver from a heart attack, says Schneider.It is into this professio- nal that the guide aims to turn the most timid victim.The first step is to buy an executive briefcase to carry the basic equipment of the modern mugging victim: a block of tickets issued to the unemployed, two packets of biscuits, earplugs, counterfeit money, a Bible and a live hedgehog.Thus prepared, if you have to drive through an area frequented by armed robbers and a thief points a gun through your car window, burst into tears, embrace him, offer biscuits from your kit, show your unemployed tickets.Most Rio thieves have hearts of gold and many are unemployed journalists, engineers and economists, Schneider writes.For the pedestrian, the author says it is stu pid to think of avoiding a hold up.One should be prepared psychologically for the inevitable.When it comes, co operate — lack of co-operation makes thieves nervous and they can do all sorts of stupid things.The really professional victim walks the streets of Rio with his hands permanently in the air so he can never be surprised by a gunman, says Schneider But the drawback is that one may be considered mad RUN LIKE MAD On dark, deserted streets, the author suggests one runs like mad, looking constan- tly over one’s shoulder.If there is a thief along the way, he will probably protect you because he thinks someone is trying to invade his patch.The author advises against pursuing the thief should a police car fortuitously arrive.Under Brazil’s benign legal system, the thief will probably soon be released and, knowing your face after the identification in the police station, will feel obliged as a matter of honor to rob you again.For the dippers into handbags on crowded buses and trains, use your pet hedgehog.The wriggling of the beast in such a confined space will deter most thieves, he argues.Joggers require different advice.Schnei- der says he has found the most effective system to be the wearing of earplugs.Thieves are usually not fit and, after 500 metres of running and shouting to try to convince the intended victim they are serious about their intentions, they usually give up, Schneider says.USE BIBLE TRICK For the sophisticated, there is always the Bible trick.When an armed thief demands money, smile, raise the Bible in one hand and declaim: “John, you are the vision I have been expecting, the one I have been told to give half my worldly goods to.” Press into the hand of the amazed thief half your money, exclaiming in brotherly fas- hion, “How fortunate, how lucky.” Better to lose half than all, the author argues.Schneider advises taxi drivers who are particularly prone to armed robbery to keep a quantity of false money.When held up they should say: “Take everything but leave the rent money which is in the glove compartment.” The result is a temporarily happy thief and continuing happiness for the taxi driver.Domestic robbery requires a different stratagem.Schneider favors the contagious disease approach.When thieves break in, smile, get the rest of the family to cough violently, and say, “Welcome.You are the first visitors we’ve had since the doctor diagnosed contagious Gobbleyitis and put us in quarantine.” Exit thieves rapidly.With 350 armed robberies in Rio a week according to the police, no wonder the book is selling well.As author Schneider says, it is his only chance of getting his money back and at $5.25 U.S.a copy, it’s a steal.warning .signs arthritis ^ persistent pain and stittness on arising ^ pain, tenderness or swelling in one or more joints.''ê' recurrence of these symptoms, especially when they involve more than

OCTOBER 19, 1984—1H the i____gyj uccora openhagen in fall offers sightseeing, lots of bargains There is plenty to do in Copenhagen whether you like checking out museums, shopping or sightseeing.COPENHAGEN — Copenhagen in the summer conjurs up activities such as trips to Tivoli and visits to the Little Mermaid but the summer is a busy time in the Danish capital and visitors who travel in the fall, find that not only is the city lesc crowded, but hotel prices are lower because right now, Denmark is “offseason”.Tivoli, of course, is closed (it shuts in mid-September) but the Little Mermaid can be visited at any time of year and despite the fact that opening hours of museums and attractions are limited, there’s still plenty to do — whether you’re a shopper, sightseer or culture vulture.The royal Danish Ballet, for example, opens its doors at the beginning of October.One of the wotld’s leading companies, the Ballet has spawned such brilliant dancers as Toronto-based Erik | Bruhn (now Artistic Director of | the National Ballet of Canada) ; and their innovative repertoires ! range from classic to ultra-I modern.The Royal Ballet’s home base, l the Old Stage at the Royal i Theatre, is temporarily closed for renovations and this season the company is performing at the Concert Hall in Tivoli Gardens, even although the park itself is i closed.The New Stage, however, j which is also part of the Royal ! Theatre, is still open and here visitors can watch theatrical performances and the Royal Danish Opera.As for sightseeing, the Little Mermaid is a must.This beautiful statue was inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale of the same name and without dozens of camera clicking tourists, she looks lost but lovely, perched prettily on her rock in the harbour.The bronze statue was given to Copenhagen by Carlsberg Breweries, a now familiar name to Canadian beer drinkers, and it’s interesting to see how and where the original brew is made.The breweries are open Monday to Friday and guided tours are given at 9 a m., 11 a.m.and 2:30 p.m.To familiarize yourself with the city, it’s a good idea to take one of the guided bus tours because they take in such highlights as the Stock Exchange, the Gefion Fountain and Amalienborg Palace, residence of the Royal family, where the guard changes daily at noon.The tours give a good overview of Copenhagen but you can walk to many places as well because the centre core is small — only four square kilometres.Several attractions can be found in and around Raadhus-pladsen, a handsome square dominated by the turn-of-the-century Town Hall (tour buses also leave from here).From the square it’s a 10-minute stroll to Slotsholmen, a small island connected to Copenhagen by bridges and this area has been the political and administrative heart of the country for over five hundred years.Focal point of Slotsholmen is the stately Christiansborg Castle and here you find the Museum of Royal Stables and Coaches, Folketinget (the parliament) and the Royal Reception Chambers where Queen Margrethe receives foreign dignitaries.Christiansborg is named after Christian IV, Denmark’s “designer king”, who not only planned the magnificent Stock Exchange, but also the baroque Rosenborg Palace, which houses the Crown Jewels.Also within walking distance of Slotsholmen is “Stroget”, a l.'A-kilometre pedestrian walkway which connects Raadhuspladsen with Kongens Nytorv, Copenhagen’s other main square.Stroget, which is the collective name for a number of streets — Frederiks-berggade, Nygade, Vimmelskaf-tet, Amagertorv and Ostergade — as a haven for shoppers and the lovely throughfare is lined with fascinating stores selling anything from pipes to porcelain.Finely crafted dishes by Bing & Grondahl are a good buy, as is Georg Jensen silverware, and look out for the magic word “TIL-BUD”, which means sale.The sidewalk cafes that are characteristic of the summer are gone now, but Copenhagen has any number of restaurants which cater to all kinds of tastes.“Dan Menu”, a fixed-price meal deal, gives you a two-course dinner or lunch for only 60 kroner (C$ 7.50 at the current rate of exchange) and to find out which restaurants par- ticipate, look for the symbol of a chef’s hat.Establishments which subscribe to this program include such diverse eateries as Baker Street, a British-style pub complete with English draught beer and Vin & olgod, a barn with live entertainment, which holds over 400 people.The restaurant at the Central Railway Station also offers Dan Menu and they serve surprisingly good food — basic Danish fare such as smor-rebrod (open face sandwiches) and bikscmad (chopped and fried meat, onions and potatoes).Accommodation off-season is easy to find and some hotels drop their rates.Copenhagen abounds in low-priced “pensions" where you can rent a double room for as little as C$30-35 per night Danish town within a day of England RIBE, Denmark— People travelling to the south of England would do well to consider a side-trip to Ribe, a fascinating 1000-year-old Danish town, which is less than a day away by ferry.Ribe, a historic and picturesque place, was once a capital of Denmark and during the Viking era, it was a thriving seaport, famous throughout Europe (some streets are still called “slips” from the time when boats were hauled up and down to the Ribe A, the river on which it stands).Christianity came in 860 A.D.when Ansgar, “the apostle from the north” arrived to convert the heathens and although the city managed to hold on to her position of power for several centuries, by the time the 1600’s rolled around, Ribe had lost its former prominence, because trade routes shifted elsewhere.Today the suburbs have grown beyond recognition, but the old part of the city - the centre core, which follows the Ribe A - Remains much the same as it was in the Middle Ages, with Cobbled streets, narrow alleyways and timbered halfframe houses.An active historical society ensures that the houses are kept in tip-top condition and thanks to their efforts, Ribe is one of the most perfectly preserved towns in Scandinavia.Over one hundred buildings are on the protected list but these are no musty museums, because locals live in them and many professional people have bought these renovated homes.The past is part of the present and one of Ribe’s most lasting customs is that of the “vektor” or night watchman, a tradition which dates back to the 13th century.The Vektor’s job was to guard the citizens at night and he would wander around the city, mace in one hand, a lantern in the other, warding off intruders and singing out the time of day.The last full-time vektor retired in 1904, but a couple of years ago, Ribe reinstated the tradition.Today’s "vektor” is a volunteer, but he dresses in traditional style with a navy blue uniform, peaked cap and a chain of office around his neck.During the summer months, he leaves on his rounds at 10 p.m.every night from “Torvet”, the market square, which is in the heart of the old city and this is a good starting point for visitors too, because the streets fan out until they reach the river, and the centre is so small, that you can walk to the major attractions.The most distinctive landmark is the 12th century Cathedral of Our lady, a handsome church which is one of the largest in Denmark.Across from the cathedral is Hans Tavsens House, a former bishop’s palace which is now an archeological museum and a five-minute walk away is the Ribe Cat' edral school, founded in 1146.The small museum in the Town Hall, a 1528 manor house, houses some old trade signs which give visitors a feel for what the city was like in its commercial heyday and as you walk towards Skibbroen (the harbor) you pass Fiskergade (Fisherman’s Street), a lane lined with merchants’ collages, which has been in existence since the early 1400’s.Sometimes walkers are lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Ribe’s nesting storks, once as big an attraction as the historic city itself.Thousands used to migrate here from the Middle East but thanks to insecticides and urban sprawl, these beleaguered birds are a dying breed and they are fast becoming extinct.For the last couple of summers, only one forlorn pair has showed up in the spring, and in a strange way, these birds too, form a precious link with the past.Because the city is so small, visitors can alsmo “do” Ribe in a couple of hours and then sail back on the ferry, but Ribe is much too interesting to see in a rush and it’s a good idea to spend at least a couple of days here.The Dagmar, a historic hostelry built in 1581, is one of the best hotels in town.Its beamed ceilings, antique furniture and hand-painted walls give it the air of a bygone era and it’s the perfect pied à terre from which to explore this ancient and fascinating city.Le Marais is being restored Paris-style PARIS (CP)— The rise and fall and rise again of Le Marais is a classic story of urban development.Once home to royalty, this area about one kilometre northeast of Notre Dame in Paris, lost much of its glory in the 1800s when heavy industry took over.Today, however, many of the buildings in Le Marais are restored and open to the public.And though it is a quarter of the city many tourists are unfamiliar with, it boasts intriguing architecture, unusual museums and a wealth of history.As late as the 14th century, Le Marais — French for “the marsh” — was mostly fields owned by the Roman Catholic Church.The land was less suitable for building on than the Left Bank and Ile de la Cite.But after Charles V decided to move from his palace on the He de la Cite to what is now Le Marais, it became the "in” place to be.And when the lively Henri IV took up residence there, he began building Place Royale in 1605.COURT FOLLOWED The Pavillon du Roi was one of the first buildings constructed.Many elegant private houses were then built by courtiers anxious to be near the king.Place Royale continued to be a fashio- nable place to live even after Henri’s assassination in 1610.In 1800, its name was changed to Place des Vosges in honor of the first region of France to pay its taxes to the Consulate of Napoleon Anything “royale” was out of favor then.But Le Marais began to decline.It was on the edge of town and none too safe after dark.The rich and fashionable began to move west, toward Faubourg St.Honore.And heavy industry moved into the beautiful mansions of Place des Vosges.It wasn't until after the Second World War that the area began its long, slow climb back toward some of its former glory Today, evidence of that renewal is everywhere.You can see untouched as well as faithfully restored parts of the arcades.In some cases, the residents themselves have done the work.Many apartments have been converted to expensive condominiums.Many of the buildings have staircases considered of historic significance and are not to be tampered with While some buildings are out of bounds to the public — look for signs — visitors are welcome in others. 14—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1984 N This week's TV Listings for this week's television programs as supplied by
