TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1989-3 New Sun editor, Big Jim, may face quite a battle Last August, this column congratulated Barbara Verity, ace photo-journalist, on taking over editorship of The Townships Sun.Last month, Barbara returned to the dangerous world of the freelance and handed over the reins to our own Big Jim Lawrence.That might be a brief, stormy and interesting mating.Jim will be gentle because he is in the first full flush of lusty middle age while the Sun is sweet sixteen — although she sometimes lies about her age to go out with the grownups.In dog-years, of course, sixteen is a venerable age but in newspaper-years the Sun is a tough old crone because very few newspapers and magazines in the Townships (Estrie Living is the most recent example) have lived as long.The Sun may not be gentle with Jim.SUN MILESTONES OF DETERMINATION The Townships Sun was born in 1973 as a newsletter for the Eastern Townships Social Action Group (ETSAG) which had read the writing on the wall and struggled to help a dwindling English population take its proper place within — but not be assimilated by — a burgeoning French Quebec.This was long before the Townshippers Association, long before Alliance Quebec, even before George Ma-cLaren bought the Record and made it once more a relevant community paper and not just an outpost of Conrad Black’s empire.The Sun attempted to stand up for English-speaking Townshippers when nobody else would.It exposed the dangers of asbestosis at a time when both industry and government were trying to cover up.It took on the Department of Transport with the citizens of Melbourne and succeeded in preventing Route 55 from ruining their picturesque community.The Sun and ETSAG’s successor, the Eastern Townships Citizen’s Association, prepared a brief against Bill 101 at Camille Laurin’s personal invitation and then burned it in a public demonstration outside the National Assembly when Dr.Laurin refused to hear it.Today when the Unity Party’s supporters seem to have just woken up to the dangers of Bill 101, it should be remembered that the Sun was out there all alone back in June 1977.The Sun stood up and spoke out even when controversy affected circulation and advertising revenue.Yet it has been sued for libel only once (over intemperate wording in an article by Merritt Clifton).It lost and was almost crippled by legal fees.Once it was accused of violating human rights (along with the Record, the Campus, Bishop's University and a few others) by a militant feminist who pretended to believe she could have all she wanted in the world if it wasn’t for organized discrimination against radical feminists.The Quebec Human Rights Commission threw out her complaints as totally without foundation.*** NOW WE HAVE A CONUNDRUM But over all those hectic years, the Sun has maintained an antihunting bias while Big Jim Lawrence is the local spokesman for that fraternity.Last fall saw him hammered mercilessly by Record readers who called him ‘dodo’, ‘idiot’, ‘obnoxious’, ‘indecent’, Who’s who- By TADEUSZ LETARTE ‘red-neck’, and even ‘macho pig.’ Jim, who loves a good fight and never gives an inch, was bloodied but unbowed and battled back by calling the hunting controversy “an urban/rural misunderstanding” and anyone who ate meat while decrying the slaughter of wildlife, “a hypocrite”.Such bias on both sides is great fun, of course, but sense as always lies somewhere in between.No thoughtful anti-hunter would want the sport banned because of the enormous revenue it brings to the conservation of all wildlife.Without that funding, the cost of conservation would fall entirely on a reluctant taxpayer and be subject to annual scrutiny come bud-get-slashing time.CHANGE IS SLOWLY COMING And the Ministry of Fun & Games now recognizes its duty to protect all wild things — not just those the hunters fancy.It reflects a change in public attitude toward the environment because our pioneers considered all nature an implacable enemy, “red in tooth and claw.” The forest had to be destroyed before food could be raised for the family.Bears and wolves, foxes and hawks had to be wiped out to preserve pigs and sheep and chickens.Survival was a matter of immediate concern and if any justification were needed that all animals were created for man’s use — or misuse just as he saw fit — the Holy Bible furnished plenty of it.Game laws when they at last Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing is about racism & New York City By Bob Thomas LOS ANGELES (AP) — Filmmaker Spike Lee is looking for the day when he no longer has to sell himself to the movie industry like some new kid on the block.“Each time out is another struggle, another battle, another war,” he said.So far, Lee is winning the war.His second movie, She’s Gotta Have It, won him the Cannes Film Festival prize for best new director.His third, School Daze, was Columbia Pictures’ biggest moneymaker last year, grossing $14.5 million.Lee’s first film was Joe’s Bed Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads in 1982.It was his thesis work at New York University Film School, and won the student Oscar from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.The latest movie is Do the Right Thing, which goes into release June 30 with rave reviews at Cannes where it lost the festival prize to the American film sex, lies and videotape.Do the Right Thing takes place during a sweltering summer in and around Sal’s Famous Pizza, run by an Italian (Danny Aiello) in a lower-middle-class neighborhood in the predominantly black Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn.Tensions of family, race, friendship and love run high.‘RACISM GHASTLY CRIME’ The theme for the movie’s title comes from a speech made by the late black activist Malcolm X in 1964: “Racism is a human problem and a crime that is absolutely so ghastly that a person who is fighting racism is well within his rights to fight against it by any means necessary until it is eliminated.” Using his student Oscar as a credential, Lee had tried to make a movie about bicycle messengers but ran into the barriers of financing and distribution.But Lee had a vision and the tenacity to follow it."I knew that Steven Spielberg wasn’t calling me, George Lucas wasn’t calling my house, or any of the studios,” he said.“If I was to become a film-maker, I would have to do it myself.” She’s Gotta Have It grossed $8 million for Island Pictures, impressing David Puttnam, then head of Columbia Pictures.He commissioned School Daze, a musical satire of fraternity life at a black campus.But the $6.5-million movie got caught in the crossfire of corporate politics.Puttnam was ousted as Columbia’s boss and new leadership gave the movie little promotion.CHILLY RECEPTION With a chilly reception from Columbia, he took his third film to Paramount Pictures.The relationship was pleasant until the studio wanted “a more Walt Dis-neyesque type of We-Are-the-World ending,” Lee said.“I would rather had shot my own self first.” Universal gave him a go-ahead.Bom in Atlanta, Lee was raised in Brooklyn by a jazz musician father and a mother who taught art.He attended Morehouse College and then NYU.Like most lovers of the cinema, he’s critical of the quality of Hollywood movies.came along were designed not to protect the environment but to preserve and increase game for hunters.Peole could kill anything at any time in any quantity except specified animals during specified closed seasons.The regulations now forbid killing any animal at any time except specified numbers of specified animals during specified open seasons.QUIRKY LAWS NONETHELESS With a few exceptions.Until March 31st, 1986, at least any hunter could kill anywhere in Quebec any number of house sparrows, red-wing blackbirds, cowbirds, grackles, starlings, ringneck pheasants, wild turkeys and crows.Porcupines and woodchucks could be killed anywhere except far northern zones where they didn’t want to live anyway.Rats, mice, moles and bats could not be killed at all because they went unspecified.With the exception of pheasants, turkeys and woodchucks, none of these make good eating and most are quite harmless so that they are hunted for the sheer pleasure in killing — plinked for target practise with no more thought than plinking beer cans or road signs.Now, according to the Record’s veteran outdoorsman, Real Hebert, it will be illegal to hunt crows from May 1 to October 1, leaving open season only in the winter months when wise crows have gone south.BUT THEY DO SOME GOOD Crows have always had a bad name primarily because of their color.Once they robbed gardens and cornfields (crows are smart enough to know com is planted in rows and proceed methodically in a straight line scratching out every kernel instead of randomly wandering hit-or-miss) but built-up areas and treated seeds leave them only the seeds left by balers and grain spilled from combine harvesters.And they do a very real service cleaning up roadside kills.The Peregrine falcon has recently been removed from the endangered species list, thanks to introduction into cities where it helps controlpigeons.Bald Eagles have been reintroduced into New Hampshire and we may sometime see them back in Coaticook Gorge or flying fromthe Pinnacle at Baldwin Mills.Wild turkeys have drifted into the Townships from réintroduction programs to the south and west.Moose have wandered in from Maine and that state has recently reintroduced the woodland caribou so that, after a hundred years, Townshippers may once again see caribou.A Townships Sun poll (February, 1981) revealed that 83% of its readers had been inconvenienced by hunters and a whopping 94% want hunting regulations changed.The battle lines are clearly drawn.August jacking season is fast approaching and Big Jim Lawrence will not be able to resist.Anyone wanting to see the fireworks is urged to subscribe $112 a year ($9 pensioners) to Box 28,

(Reuter-AP) — Many of top Japanese film-maker Akira Kurosawa’s dreams are finally coming true.Kurosawa’s 28th and latest movie, Dreams, is comprised of nine short stories based on his own dreams — and, perhaps, nightmares.It is scheduled to be released in North America and Europe by the end of the year.Dreams is a departure from his two other works of the past decade, epic films with historical themes — Ran (Rebellion) in 1985 and Kage-musha (The Shadow Warrior) in 1980 which won top honors at the Cannes film festival.“It takes me four or five years between my films mainly because it’s hard getting the financing in Japan,” the 79-year-old Kurosawa told a news conference in the mountain village of Hotaka in central Japan where he was shooting.“The Japanese film industry shuns MAM.»* me.The Japanese industry tends to favor cute animal stories and gangster films, in contrast to the uncompromising intellectual complexity and sombre tone of most of Kurosawa’s films.FOREIGN MONEY Since 1975, when his film Dersu Uzala was produced and financed in the Soviet Union, Kurosawa has financed his movies outside Japan.Amblin Entertainment, headed by director Steven Spielberg who considers Kurosawa one of his mentors, in co-operation with George Lucas’s Industrial Light and Magic-Lucas Co., is supplying approximately $10.7 million US in production costs for Dreams.Warner Bros, will distribute the film.Ken Ralston, whose computer animation in Roger Rabbit surprised the movie world, is producing the special effects for the film, while Martin Scorcese, director of Taxi Driver and other movies, appears as the painter Van Gogh.“ Many of the dreams I have really dreamed," Kurosawa told reporters.“Others, I would have dreamed.“If you ask me what it’s about, the film is probably about what I think of the world right now.But I don’t carry placards announcing what my theme is.” SOME TERRIFY One dream-story takes place in a forgotten village somewhere in modem Japan that relies on huge watermills for power.A young wanderer meets a village centenarian who tells him there’s nothing good in such modem things as electricity and tractors.Another story is about an accident at a nuclear plant near Mount Fuji, the symbol of Japan, which causes the volcano to melt as people try to flee.A third depicts ghosts of dead Japanese soldiers from the Second World War, while another shows a young aspiring artist physically entering a Van Gogh painting.Kurosawa, who brushed aside questions from reporters about his autocratic reputation with the comment “You guys made that story up about me,” wrote the script for Dreams, planned the logistics and advised the composer about the musical score.He also edits films as they are shot, showing them to his staff only after the first cuts.By Norm Foster Directed by Gregory Tuck JUt)IE 2£-JULY 15 A hilarious new comedy of errors about the theatre world from the author of The Melville Boys.Starring: John Dolan Andrew

the film Broadcast News, a television reporter’s success is gauged by the on-camera reaction of the network anchorman.The moment of trath lies in that instant when the filmed report concludes, and the camera cuts back to the main studio.A thoughtful pause by the anchor, before he goes on to the next story, signifies the importance of the item.The network anchor has become larger than life.He or she is a trusted source of information who enters millions of homes every evening.A poll once suggested that Walter Cronkite, then anchor of CBS network news, was the most trusted man in the United States.Peter Johansen, associate professor of journalism at Carleton University, says the anchor’s personality is the key.“The person who comes across as most trustworthy is important to the audience.It’s not enough to be trustworthy.You also have to have a sense of warmth and humanity about you.” With trust comes influence.AFFECT STORY “All Knowlton Nash or Peter Mansbridge would have to do at the end of a story .is just raise an eyebrow to punctuate it,” says Charles Ungerleider, a University of British Columbia professor and the author of a book about media watching, Television and Society: An Investigative Approach.CBC anchor Mansbridge, sitting with loosened tie and rolled up sleeves in his newsroom office in downtown Toronto, says “there’s no doubt that the potential is there for an anchor to throw extra weight behind something or to remove him or herself from a role of neutrality in a story.“So, in that sense, there is some potential danger there.You’ve got to be careful.“But there are some stories where you just can’t help it, and they’re usually the ones that are more of an emotional nature.” GIVE BALANCE Mansbridge’s CTV counterpart, Lloyd Robertson, says: “After you’ve been doing the job for a while.you become imbued with a sense of what you have to be.“When we talk about treating people fairly, when we try to give balance to stories, it’s really the anchor’s job more than anyone else to represent that,” says blue-suited Robertson, who pauses to give an autograph at lunch in a downtown restaurant.“So I’m very conscious of how I treat things, how I respond to stories on the air, and I always try to do it in a measured way, because I think the anchor has to bring a broader dimension to the role.“I think the anchor is the personal witness to history and is seen as such by the audience.” MAY BE INVOLVED Witnessing history isn’t always a cold, objective experience.Mansbridge cites the example of the recent confrontation of the military and students in China.“When you’re reading an intro about the government shooting on its own people and using brutal force, you can sometimes tend to get quite wrapped up in the way you deliver those sentences.” Robertson recalls his voice cracking during his coverage of Terry Fox’s funeral Anchoring a network newscast is more than reading the news.It often involves behind-the-scenes work, on-air exchanges with field reporters and live coverage of events.Mansbridge likens his job to that of a commercial airline pilot.Most of the time it may be routine, but when the unexpected arises, expertise is crucial.“When big stories break you’ve got to be able to adapt,” he says.AT THE SCENE A trend in today’s newscasts is to more on-location coverage — not just sending reporters, but anchoring the news at the scene.Canadian networks may broadcast from Ottawa on the night of a budget or election, for example.American networks have been sending their anchors to exotic locales like Brussels and Beijing.Canadians may follow suit.“The technology is so easy now,” says Mansbridge, explaining the trend.It’s also a boost for the studio-bound news staff: “After a while sitting in a studio, especially when a big story hits, you want to get there.” “I think we’re going to be seeing more and more of that,” says Robertson.“It’s to add a sense of importance to an event.” Anything involving the TV anchor tends to add significance.That’s part of the controversy surrounding CBC's decision to air a report by Mansbridge during the last federal election campaign on Liberal officials discussing the resignation of party leader John Turner.It was a call Mansbridge still pondes ¦^psJr^^P^r=^r=^r==Jr=Jn=Jr=ir=iJr==Jr==-»r=ir=3f=j ff 1 2637 King W.Sherbrooke CAFE INC The King of

finally restored Bv Claudia Villpmair*» ~ tr „ .i T L .1.By Claudia Villemaire ULVERTON — The Moulin Blanchette is almost back in operation.After nearly a quarter century of quiet decay in this three-storey nineteenth-century building on the bank of the Black River here, the dream of once again spinning and weaving pure wool into garments and blankets could become a reality within five years.I can barely remember it in operation.Back in the ’50’s it seemed a mysterious spot to me.The magic and aura of history still clung to the shabby-shingled building and I often stopped to rest a while on the frequent day-long horseback rides that filled those carefree days.And, as the sun disappeared behind the hill on summer evenings, I admit urging my steed into a faster pace.Stopping was out of the question after dark as a hint of ghostly shadows played inside on the walls, now sagging and cracking, and a playful moon cast an eerie gleam on the river as it gurgled out the tunnel where the turbine sat rusting.Today that’s all changed.Once again standing straight and tall on its four-foot-thick foundation walls, the floors repaired, beams renewed and fresh paint everywhere, Moulin Blanchette, originally owned by the Dunkerelys and the Hepworths, where Joseph Blanchette and his family stayed for nearly 34 years turning out blankets and such that can still be found in homes all over the Eastern Townships, houses some of the oldest machinery in the world still in working condition.This week, and every week until Labor Day, two hostesses.Josée and Chantal, show folks around.They explain the intricacies of these old machines which in some cases date to before 1890.Josée must have been studying about wool carding and spinning machinery because without hesitation she flipped switches and manipulated long handles and wheels, setting in motion the only operational wool spinner (called a mule) in Canada.It made a horrendous racket, running back and forth on steel tracks — wheels and arms and long-armed wool eyes flashing up and down, twisting wool plys (strands) onto bobbins.“We are working towards a very definite goal,” said Marcel Poirier, general manager of the operational museum.“Within five years, we want to be producing woolen blankets and garments such as shawls, mitts and socks, as they did so many years ago.We have everything we need now.The only thing we’ll change is the dyeing methods which will be done with natural dyes instead of the commercial type they used here,” he added.The mill also houses quite a collection of related artifacts.Tools used by pioneers at home on their homestead are on display, showing visitors how fleece was prepared and spun back on the farm.Some of the original single employees lived at the mill, so there’s a corner showing what type of accomodation they could expect at the time.“They hired children between 8 and 11 years old at the turn of the century,” Josée explained.“These youngsters worked in the lower levels cleaning and untangling the fleece.The air was dank and noise was awful.Their day started at 7 and finished at 6 p.m.and pay for one day was 35 cents.” Josée added that working conditions were considered fairly good at the time but their main concern seemed to be keeping the children from injury in the heavy machinery.“These little kids had to run up to a moving machine when a strand broke, tie the knot and get out of the way before this spinner moved back down its track again.There were many casualties and not much help for it back then,” she said.But the mill is a cheerful place.2# ¦ /i , , , , -, .muiO/O AUUIA VILLEMAIRf.Josee Jutros explains the steps and machinery used to turn a sheep’s fleece into a cosy blanket At times there were up to six entire families living in company houses and working at the mill.There were parties and dances in various homes and many oldtimers in the area can remember the good times they had with the folks at the old mill.Renovations began about five years ago.A driving force in the project, Bertrand Roy, formerly on the Ulverton municipal council and the first chief administrator at the mill, Roy stirred up local and political interest.“Because of the original Route 55 project, the mill was taken over by the Minister of Transport.When we began to look at the possibility of restoration, we had to deal with them while seeking funding from other arms of the governments.” It was a long and demanding struggle according to Roy, but finally subsidies began to come their way.Restoration began slowly, until finally, the entire structure and surrounding area was completely restored.“The turbine still functions,” Poirier said.“But one of the reasons production stopped in 1945 was insufficient power to meet the market demand for the mill’s goods.” We were sitting on a lower level where fieldstone support walls had to be completely re-done.The area now is a pleasant airy space which can accomodate about 70 people at a sit-down meal.Facilities are complete with kitchen and bar and the Mill hall is available for hire.“We are looking for ways to finance putting the mill into operation," Poirier said.“There's a small admission for touring and government programs do pay for some parts of the project as well as the guides and five or six other maintenance people.But we do need quite a bit of money before we can actually operate as a wollen mill,” Poirier said.Moulin Blanchette is located on Porter Road.To find it one must be patient and watch for signs along all main highways near the area.On Route 55, exits are clearly marked, but one must still travel a dozen or so kilometres on country roads.So a prospective visitor must be very alert “We are quite isolated here,” Josée explained.“One of the projects is more funding to improve the information and publicity available.We need better guideposts on the major arteries, perhaps some si-gnalization in nearby towns too.Last year we had 7,000 Visitors.I’m sure twice that number would come out if they only knew how to get here.” One simple method is heading for the old Richmond-Drummondville highway, watching for Mooney Road near the outskirts of Ulverton village and following the signs from there.Whatever the outcome, it’s a trip along the St Francis river well worth driving, offering the lost Mill visitor some of the most scenic highway in the Eastern Townships with, if he or she is lucky, a visit to a rare and interesting mill where past and present have found common ground.They have a phone at the Mill and speak both languages too.For info, dial 819-826-3157. 6—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1989 Son Cochrane rides to fame CAMBRIDGE, Ont.(CP) — It isn’t easy being the mother of a rock star, but Violet Cochrane wouldn’t have it any other way.Groupies phone at 3 a m.and kids show up at the front door asking for concert tickets and autographs, but she’s proud of son Tom Cochrane.With his group Red Rider, Cochrane has been awarded eight gold albums (sales over 50,000), a platinum album (over 100,000) and a double platinum album.Sitting in a large, rustic kitchen with warm pine accents and sun filtering through several windows, Violet says Tom, 34, has never forgotten his roots.He was bom in Lynn Lake, a small mining community in northern Manitoba, where his father was a bush pilot.Although the family moved to Toronto when Tom was seven, Violet says, “being out in the bush influenced him and his music.It was a very free and colorful life — one that Tom has never forgotten.” The family home was always filled with music — or what was intended to be music, Violet said.Tom played the trombone, sister Decie the clarinet and other sister Leslie-Ann the violin.The Kidney Foundation Of Canada ‘DOG HOWLING’ “What a racket that was,” says Tom’s father.“All of them practising in various parts of the house, and the dog howling away.” “We had a lot of headaches in those days,” adds Violet, recalling the time Tom purchased his first guitar by selling his dad’s train set.“It was worth a mint (around $1,500) and the guitar was worth $40,” says Tom senior.With six months of guitar lessons, Tom started writing music and playing by ear.At age 16 he began writing sheet music for a record company for “pin money” and in the last few years of high school formed a band called Chesterfield which played at school coffee houses.His rise to success took more than twelve years,“ with lots of ups and downs,” Violet said.But through all the smoky bar rooms and criss-crossing of the country her son never lost his optimism.NO DOCTOR, LAWYER 7/8‘‘Every mother and dad wants their son to be a doctor or lawyer but when he decided to be a musician we were willing to have him carry on,” she says.“My husband pursued his own career and was happy at it, and we instilled in Tom to do something he was happy doing.” They didn’t think, however, that he’d end up a rock star.His mother is also proud of the fact Tom writes his own lyrics and music.“Tom’s very deep and his material always tells a story.If he was just a rock singer I wouldn’t be as proud of him.” Since joining Red Rider in 1980, success has come in leaps and bounds.The group recently completed a Canadian tour, has plans for a U.S.tour, received a Juno award for group of the year in 1988 and appeared on David Letter-man this spring.COMPOSER OF YEAR At this year’s Juno Canadian music awards, Tom was named composer of the year.Success has changed her son, who now lives in Toronto, “a little bit,” says his mother.“He enjoys people asking for autographs but he still really enjoys his family privacy.He’s married and has two lovely girls.” Although his parents don’t see Tom as much as they’d like, the family spends Christmas and Easter together and talks on the phone frequently.“When he has parties — barbecues and poolside stuff — he always invites us.We see colored hair, people of all types.Quite frankly I find them quite interesting,” Violet said.“As parents, all we can say is Tom brings a lot of color into our lives.” Concerts Presented By: Lyndon Area Sports Association Featuring: Ronnie

TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, JULY 7, 19f»-7 Walker Percy’s Lancelot— good summer fare MMil A modem knight-errarrt on a quest after evil Convincing and chiing The New York Times Book Review Lancelot by Walker Percy (IVY-BALLANTINE): $5.50, 240 pp.Summer, in addition to being the time that book publishers make their plans for the big push of marketing the fall releases, is also a time for the publication of reprints of books that will fill vacationers’ bookbags.Loaded in with the sun-tan lotion, Walkman and maps will be some of the summer season’s many bestsellers and the odd reprint of a book like Walker Percy’s Lancelot.First published in 1977, Percy’s novel is one of those rare finds that readers may have missed on its initial release.More celebrated for novels such as The Moviegoer (National Book Award, 1961) or The Thanatos Syndrome, Percy is a southern novelist who chooses the settings of his native Louisiana for his works.In Lancelot, Percy creates a truly memorable character in Lancelot Andrewes Lamar, former liberal lawyer who reveals to the reader the reasons for his being incar-cerated in what he calls a “nuthouse”, which appears to be the psychiatric unit of a prison.As the book’s narrator, Lancelot reveals the way in which his life was changed so dramatically when he came upon a random fact about his youngest daughter’s birth that had never occurred to him before.THE PLOT UNFOLDS As he sat at his desk, he informs us, in the novel’s chatty familiar tone created by Lancelot’s confession to an old friend who is a psychiatrist-priest, he chanced upon a detail about his daughter’s blood-type.Learning that her blood type could not possibly have been created by a union between Lancelot and his wife Margot, the crusading lawyer — who has many ironic parallels with Lancelot of King Arthur’s Camelot—begins a series of investigations into his wife’s whereabouts during the only time when the child could have been conceived.Finding old income tax receipt records and motel records dating back to the summer of 1968, Lancelot refreshes his memory about the activities of he and his wife for that period, only to find that she was attending Robert Merhn’s works- Kaleidoscope By RICHARD LONEY zebel and Frankie Goes To Hollywood), the only thing left is for this rare ensemble to find an audience — their debut should open a few doors.hop at the famous Dallas-Arlington Playhouse for the entire month of July — the only time biologically possible for his daughter’s conception.Filled with dread, but also driven by the kind of inquisitiveness that he shares with his favourite detective, Phillip Marlowe, Lancelot becomes obsessed with learning about his wife’s supposed infidelity.The reader too, is driven by curiosity about what Lancelot must have done in reaction to his wife’s infidelity that has landed him in this “nuthouse”.AND A SERMON OR TOO Along the way Lancelot delivers introspective sermons about the state of religion in contemporary life, the role of marriage and love, and on a personal basis, traces his feverish romance with his wife Margot.Margot’s moviemaking cohorts come in for a lot of barbed criticism, and Lancelot takes delight in analyzing the oddities of the Louisiana social fabric.All in all, Lancelot does what every good novel should do: it engages our minds and our hearts, interests us in the lives of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances, and illuminates a particular region and its people.RECORD REVIEWS Pilgrim Souls Is This All Of Us?(COLUMBIA) Thanks to College Radio and bands like R.E.M., newcomers like Pilgrim Souls have an easier time in getting their material heard and played.Led by impressive writer/singer/guitarist Danny Yetnikoff, the Pilgrim Souls combine the best aspects of Dylan— gritty vocals & an eclectic vision of our contemporary world joined in rock poetry — with the eighties sound of the boys from Athens, Georgia.Yetnikoff’s songwriting has taken some careful shaping, but thanks to his collaboration with the other three members of Pilgrim Souls, their sound comes out as refined and uncluttered.Marc Jacoby plays slide and regular guitars, Michael Duff McClung is the bassist who handles occasional keyboards.and a Philly drummer named Andrew Mandel fills out this quartet which features three backing vocalists behind Yetnikoff’s assault-weapon of a voice.The lyrics to the songs from Pilgrim Souls are as up-to-date as the big rock sound — “Gimme Back My Home” takes a wry look at the environment and everything else going down the tubes in our doomed world: “Let’s go on chewing our gum, waiting for the river to recede .If the papers could spell, they might have said ‘catastrophe’/ People chuckling at the suburbs, but in two months that’s where they’ll be”.On the track “Redemption Day” Jacoby’s guitars slash and swagger on this bitterly iconoclastic ditty; on “Train’s Gotta RoU On”, the Pilgrim Souls play like the early Stones did when they were totally infused with the spirit of American R&B music; and on “5:38 To Alcatraz” the band benefits from the guest appearance of bluegrass/ country fiddler Byron Berline whose bowing runs through Yetnikoff’s quirky lyrics like a Mozart accompaniment to an exhibition of Hieronymus Bosch pictures.Having found a producer whose credits are as diverse as Pilgrim Souls are off-centre, (Alvin Clark has worked with X, Gene Loves Je- (,V THi$ W l Of- uq Wagoneers Good Fortune (A&M) Listeners would not have to tax their imaginations very much to imagine that this new record by the Wagoneers carries a great many reminders of one of Elvis’s gospel albums.Produced by Emory Gor-dy, Jr., the sessions utilize the talents of Sleepy LaFeef, a guitarist who is reported to have played with the King, and Glen D.Hardin, who definitely was the keyboard fixture with Elvis’s last band that also featured guitarist James Burton and Ronnie Tutt on drums.The featured artists, though, are the four fellows known as the Wagoneers, whose first album Stout And High brought them high profile country attention.Writer Monte Warden handles the lead vocals and on a tune like “Take Me”, with backup by vocalists Ed Enoch, Larry Strickland, Guy Pen-rod and Tony King, fits in perfectly with the white Gospel, Nashvilli-zed version of doo-wop.Hardin’s keyboard fills add richly to the Wagoneer s sound, and LaBeef kicks in with the kind of rockabilly guitar that he used when playing with Carl Perkins and (he claims) with Elvis.But it is Gordy’s ear for the Nashville ambience that renders this album, finally, a powerful example of the crossover potential that the special July 4th concert This Country’s Rockin’ plumbed so successfully.The Wagoneers believe strongly in their commitment to country music; says Monte Warden: “If we can help get young people to just listen to country music, I believe they would find it to be the music of their lives”.If they listen to Good Fortune they may not know how much it resembles earlier Elvis sessions, but they will undoubtedly be impressed with the sound created on this record.VIDEO SCREENINGS Everybody's All-American (WARNER BROS.HOME VIDEO) Although the current rage appears to be baseball movies, none of which has been done with either convincing realism or much success, Taylor Hackford’s attempt to trace the life of a typical All-American football hero has much to recommend its treatment of the second-greatest American pastime.Hackford chooses for his directorial focus the life of Gavin Grey, the "Grey Ghost", whose exploits in college football and in the ranks of the N F L.bring him everything he always wanted in Hfe — or do they?Grey's life in football forms the backdrop to this story, but it is the life off the gridiron that allows this picture to develop the intensity it does.Jessica Lange plays Babs, Gavin’s long-suffering Magnolia Queen, whose family orientation and parade of children seem far removed from the exploits on the turf of her husband the “Grey Ghost".Supporting Dennis Quaid’s convincing portrait of the taciturn, moody jock, are John Goodman who plays the big and big-hearted lineman Lawrence, and Timothy Hutton who is Gavin’s cousin Don-ny “Cake”.Director Hackford begins with Grey’s college exploits, traces his career through the Sugar Bowl and into the N.F.L.with the Redskins, and culminates with the Grey Ghost’s coming out of retirement for a stint with the Denver Broncos.The downside of the N.F.L.superstar’s slow decline in popularity is documented very carefully, and it is this milking of nostalgia that forms the most poignant portions of the film.They Grey Ghost in his dotage is reduced to touting the wonders of a new miracle carpet, attending the opening of restaurants, and accompanying star-struck business types on golfing tours.His repetitious accounts of the thrilling plays of yesteryear soon grow very old and the pressure of Gavin’s dissatisfaction with his life of dissipation soon begins to tell on his marriage.Lange’s role in the film and in her role as Gavin’s wife begins to take on more importance as the Grey Ghost’s legend begins to fade.Hutton's portrayal of a mild-mannered, scholarly writer of history texts (his life of the ol’ RebJeb Stuart forming a symbolic parallel to Gavin Grey’s southern heroics with the pigskin) only becomes believable when the baby-faced star of Ordinary People develops some facial hair and turns off his trademark smile.The mere fact that there are several character portrayals that vie with Quaid’s portrayal of the rollercoaster ride into American football as religion, is a mark that this is a film that gets out of the locker-room and into the minds and hearts of the participants in the sport.Taylor Hackford manages to lift Quaid and Lange out of their usual star-turns to have them pull off better-than-expected performances in this saga about the life of an American football hero.(VIDEO AVAILABLE AT LE CLUB VIDEO, QUEEN STREET, LENNOXVILLE; AND AT TREI-ZIEME AVENUE, SHERBROOKE.) t3 >.[- Ti ii; Kidney Foundation Or Canada 8—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1989 WHAT’S ON

over.But yes, here came the stewardess, looking fresh as a daisy, telling me it was 7:15 and breakfast was on the way.That was the first radical change on this trip — an expense paid press junket bringing together over 100 travel press and agency people from across the world — which had landed in my lap like the winning number on a 649 loto.The invitation from the Moroccan Tourist Bureau gave us an opportunity to visit the country in a special celebration of Moroccan folklore.KING’S BIRTHDAY The National Folklore Festival is an annual event but this year was earmarked as the special celebration of the King’s 60th birthday and would present events representing 12 centuries of traditional song and dance.One may have the tendency to say ‘oh humdrum’.But on closer inspection the simple statement gives rise to a million questions.The King’s birthday?Twelve centuries?Morocco, only slightly larger than France with about the same population as Canada, is a constitutional monarchy where royalty is held in the highest esteem.Daily newspapers grace their front page almost every day with wishes, blessings and prayers for their King Hassan II.And their fealty is well-placed.Morocco has opened its doors to the world during Hassan’s reign.Although still described as a deve-loping-country, giant strides have been made in modernising both physically and mentally a country that, until the early 60’s, was still much the same as it had been for centuries — almost closed to westerners, the Muslim religion frowning on opening traditional customs and festivals for tourists.Although trade with other parts of the world — especially in phosphate, olives, fruit, spices and sardines and other sea food — had been going on for centuries, actual visitors to Morocco dwindled to a trickle after the second World War.FINDING MONEY Realizing perhaps that the future development of his country would depend on foreign dollar investment, the king and his well-travelled Minister of Tourism began the prodigious task of finding money and expertise to develop a healthy tourist industry.Today, their efforts are beginning to pay off.Forty percent of the country ’s economy is based on tourism.With natural phosphate the only major export, tourism is beginning to fill the gaps in Morocco’s gross national product.Hydro projects and improved communications have helped lure the traveller away from the seaside which has hundreds of miles of black sandy beaches — always a priority requirement in the tourist industry.Public and private transport has mushroomed as well and hotel accomodations are increa- sing at a rate of just less than 10,000 beds per year.The Atlas mountains are gradually being developed as some of the most thrilling sites in the world.There’s a new ski-resort about 100 miles from Marakesh now, one of many planned for the spectacular moutain range where peaks seem to rise from the desert plains and snow stays on the peaks year-round.Schools, colleges and special courses in tourism are flourishing and government sponsored and trained experts can be found in remote areas as well as the ever-popular Agadir and Casa Blanca.And then, of course, there’s the money situation.It’s still cheap once you land on Moroccan soil.A Canadian dollar gets you about 7.40 Moroccan Dirhams, enough for a small meal, or a tour guide for a day or a couple of bottles of excellent Moroccan wine.SILVER BRACELET You could pick up a silver bracelet, hand made, for about $3 or $4 Cdn — 20 to 30 Dirhams.Or, if you add on a couple of Dirhams, a pair of soft slippers.In other words, if a person is not too picky, a hundred Canadian dollars could support a person fairly well for up to a month.But there’s one thing a tourist must learn very quickly.In Morocco, first of all, no one is in a hurry, nor can they be hurried.Secondly, bartering is a way of life — almost a spiritual exercise.Any Moroccan worth his salt—and they barter with that too — is highly insulted if you accept his first price.He wants to be told off for gyping you, and if you heap a few invectives on him, curse his prices, make him a ridiculous — and I mean ridiculous — offer, chances are he’ll accept, offer you a glass of hot mint tea and declare his friendship forever.It takes some getting used to.The Moroccans are a warm and friendly people.They like to shake your hand, give you a hug and very often, they kiss you on both cheeks before introductions are over.They are great touchers, always gently plucking at your sleeve or resting a hand on your arm, eventually getting your attention.APPARENT CONFUSION Although it may take six waiters at varying levels of importance to tend to your needs in a restaurant, the final result is usually excellent.But a tourist, unused to this shifting authority often loses patience in the apparent confusion and gives up to try elsewhere.And forever, you must negotiate.The taxi driver, the little guide who offers tours through the labarynth called the Souks and Medina, boys who want payment to keep your guide honest, someone to guard your vehicle, three others to guard VZflZTn'peTkTstuhTTc^^^^

and beautiful land p®- '.*» the guard — everyone wants a tourist’s money and will do some of the most outlandish jobs for it.For example, we stopped at a stand where freshly squeezed orange juice was sold for about 2 Dirhams.If you slipped the squeezer another coin, you got a bigger glass with extra oranges squeezed.But the vendor only sold one size.It all can appear completely silly but the system provides a meager income for hundreds of thousands of small-time entrepreneurs.Morocco is an astonishing place.New Mercedes taxis vie with tiny jackasses and burros for travelling space on Marakesh’s main streets and thoroughfares.Thousands of mopeds and scooters sputter along with crowds of pedestrians and cyclists.Vehicles dating back to the 40s belch smoke and rumble cautiously along, missing gigantic pi-ieups by the hair on a donkey’s tail.SNAIL’S PACE I think they have a pretty high accident rate although serious injuries are not usual.Traffic necessarily moves at a snail’s pace with as many as three policemen directing traffic at some intersections where up to six or seven streets converge.Pandemonium rules in most cases and travelling in the city takes nerves of steel and an uncanny sense of direction.The country is as full of contrasts as the streets of Marakesh.Ara-baic and French are the most common languages but Spanish and Ber Ber — the unwritten dialect of the desert people — run close competition.e rocco.This country is indeed the land of velvet nights, filled with stars that shine like diamonds.It is a land of mystery and mysticism where there are still places a westerner is not allowed., RIDING A DONKEY 5 Two hops and a skip from the ho-otel where I stayed took me into ?country where a blade of grass was g a rare and much-loved topic of conversation, where a small dust cloud meant someone was passing by, miles away, riding a donkey or a camel or perhaps an arabian horse, the purpose or destination a mystery.A full 180 degree visual sweep of the landscape revealed perhaps a dozen palm trees and an expanse of sand that shifted and shimmered in the noonday sun — and everyday the thermometer hovered around 115 degrees Fahrenheit.An envi ronmental shocker to a confirmed Eastern Townshipper used to the green and wooded hills of home.Next week we ll talk about Moroccan folklore, their favorite foods and an event called a Fantasia that brings to mind countless stories of camels, caravans, and mounted, armed Ber Bers, riding their fiery steeds into battle in the ancient shiekdoms.^ * A wizened member of a troup wears the scarlet costume of the Berber, complete with copper poot-like decorations and a broad-brimmed hat, also decorated with silver, pewter and copper.The market place where generations of families have owned a tiny comer where they traditionally ply their trade in goods or crafts is within the old city walls — a confusing maze of shops and craft boutiques surrounded by walls and ramparts dating back to 500 A.D.Women, in the traditional Moslem religion still wear veils.But recently they have begun to assert their independence and many have taken that first step — appearing in public in western dress sans veil.But Moslem men still pay particular attention to a lady who does not keep her eyes cast down, a direct gaze implying more than just casual conversation.For the women in my group, this proved to be a rather major roadblock from a journalist’s point of view.Few western reporters or writers remembered in those first few days that we’d get more than the facts if we didn’t watch our eyes.EDGE OF SAHARA Marakesh is nearly on the edge of the Sahara.The city’s raison d’être is a giant oasis which supplies this sprawling metropolis with precious water.There are gardens here and olive tree plantations.Date palms soar skyward and flowers the size of dinner plates are everywhere.Part of the Tourist Bureau’s most enjoyable task is showing tourists the lush growth and profitable cultivation of market crops on the edge of the dryest region in the world.,*5 Everything is tinged with pink, the soil, rocks, buildings, even the * ornate mosaics and tiling that de-rTM corate favorite tourist stops such as the tombs of three Moroccan ’r kings or the unbelievably intricate ¦ ;i design one finds on old palace doors and gateways.The delicate profusion of mosaics which adorn the tombs of three Icings still blazes with color after nearly 1000 years under the Moroccan sun.Buildings and surrounding walls — up to three feet thick — are constructed from materials at hand so they too have the same pink tinge.Asa matter of fact, Marakesh is called the pink city of Mo- ckts am THIS WEEK# TITLE LAST WEEK # 1- GOOD THING Fine Young Cannibals 5 2- BUFFALO
