ttews Straight Creek victiR.1 of recession

by Sal Ruibal

~ After eight years of publication, the Straight Creek Journal is folding.

Denver 's leading 'alternative' publication will publish its last edition on August 6, a victim of the recession and what publisher Medill Barnes referred to as general "financial problems."

Rumors of the paper's demise have been circulating for years, but the Jour­nal always managed to keep the presses rolling. The seriousness of their recent slump became apparent July 8 when a former employee filed a complaint with the Colorado Labor Department alledging the paper owed her substantial back wages.

According to William Scheick, an investigator for the department, Barnes did not deny the claim, but cited ''cash flow problems" as the reason the em­ployee had not been paid. Barnes is

,._ quoted in the report as saying bluntly, "We just don't have the cash."

Since it was established in 1972, Straight Creek Journal earned its share of praise and scorn. Under ' Editor Ron Wolf, the paper took on such heavii:s as the FBI, RTD and Denver Post publisher Donald Seawell.

Some critics claim that Wolf became obsessed with liis battle against Seawell, turning the paper into a one-track dia­tribe against the publisher and his pet project, the Denver Cc;nter for the Per­forming Arts.

;.-, Despite the negative reactions, Wolf received the Journalist of the Year award from the Colorado Press Association last year. His series on Seawell's attempts to relocate Speer Boulevard onto the Auraria campus received a coveted 'laurel' f~om the prestigious Columbia Journalism Review.

The recession has not only affected small operations such as Straight Creek.

The Denver Post has steadily lost ground to hs morning competitor, the Rocky Mountain News and is up for grabs. The new owner must be willing to purchase what can only be described as a declining publication. Last year the paper made only $900,000 profit on gross revenues of $93 million.

The Post is in dire need of new prin­ting facilities. Such equipmeni.would cost the new owner at least $50 million.

There has been a hiring freeze at the Post since April, with at least thirty positions currently unfilled.

Sentinel Newspapers, a chain of suburban Denver weeklies owned by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, ceased publication of the Southeast Sentinel in June. The chain also has a limited freeze on new editorial employees and laid off most of its staff of photographers earlier this year.

The Star-Tribune also stopped publication of Harper's magazine in July. Harper's is one of the oldest publi­cations in America.

The Boulder.Daily Camera ordered a staff reduction this week, citing the recession and its effects on advertising revenues as the cause.

A recent edition of Colorado Business hinted that two weekly business publications, Rocky Mountain Journal and Colorado Business World, were in bad financial shape and were either going to be sold or discontinued.

Nukes won't meet Monday The Aurarians Against Nukes will

not meet Monday, August 11and18. They will have an organizational

meeting of the Auraria .Nuclear Education Project at 7 p.m., August 25, at 4521. W. 29th Avenue, Denver.

Eventually, Karnes said, a salary compromise agreement was set, with a 30 student base set per course, but averaged throughout an entire academic school.

Although proration salary finally became policy, Howe's handling of the proposal "became the catalyst" for general faculty concern, Karnes said.

In·an open meeting June 19, about 120 MSC faculty members met to discuss

-proration and other concerns directed toward the Mcintyre administration.

During this open meeting (and, in a special session of the Faculty Senate, ac­cording to Update, a publication of the MSC's Colorado Education Association group) faculty voted to support a "statement of concern" over administra­tive actions, asked for an immediate freeze on administrative hiring, and

urged t-Teation of the investigatory task force.

The next day, MSC faculty member Avalon Williams brought the Faculty Senate !lCtion to the attention of the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges at their meeting in Gunnison.

The trustees - MSC's governing board - asked the Faculty Senate to ad­dress their report to the MSC administra­tion, however.

During the summer semester, an in­terim committee of the Faculty Senate

- continued to investigate concerns arising from the June 19 meeting; and, on July 24, the committee issued a "newsletter" to update faculty.

In the newsletter, the committee noted "very productive meetings" with both Mcintyre and Howe on a number of issues.

However, the committee also in­dicated "it cannot accept any explanation of the current difficulties between faculty anq administration which places the blame primarily on the Deans.''

The newsletter went on to clarify proration salaries, positions on state­ments by Mcintyre. Howe, and presi­dential assistant Rhody McCoy concern­ing MSC budgeting, administrative reor­ganization, and the return of former ad­ministrators to faculty assignments.

In addition, a special ad hoc report on affirmative action procedure violations in recent hiring.

However, the report also quoted Bill Moland, MSC's affirmative action of- -fleer, as having advised the administra­tion of exemptions concerning internal

transfers and hiring of "key aides." Mcintyre stated he had no problems

with the faculty newsletter and it con­tents. "We've got a good dialogue going," he said.

Howe was unavailable for comment ;' at press time Tuesday.

Gary Holbrook, MSC speecli professor and interim committee head, said the effects of the faculty concern5 ''has to be seen.''

"This is not the kind of game to be tallied on a scoreboard.''

Holbrook also noted the non­vindictive nature of the concerns. "We're after issues, not individuals," he said.

"We laid all the cards on the table," said Karnes, another interim committee member.

Further confusing the faculty- , administration controversy, -however, is Mcintyre's decision to seek the presiden-cy of Colorado State University.

"I have formally applied for the position of president at _ Colorado State

- University," Mcintyre said July 30. Mcintyre said he "was approached -"

three times-·' concerning a possible run for the top post at the Fort Collins school, but declined on the first two oc­casions.

After the third approach, Mcintyre said, he consulted with his wife, and then "allowed my name to go in nomination." ~

''When an opportunity like this comes up," Mcintyre added, "I owe it to myself as a professional educator.''

News of Mcintyre's application to .CSU comes quickly after the firing of

Chinese to study HMTAatMSC

by S. Peter Duray-Bito

Metropolitan State College is doing its part to open the door to China.

Dr. Michael Howe, vice-president of Academic Affairs at MSC, plans to establish a faculty exchange program with China and give students the oppor­tunity to tour China.

Since 1972, when he was with the University of San Francisco, Howe has led nearly a dozen delegations of students and faculty to China.

"We have three people coming to Metro this fall," said Howe. "They'll be studyi~ the Hospitality, Meeting and Travel Administration program."

Howe also hopes to have faculty come from Shanghai Normal University to study computer technology, chemistry and psychology. They speak fluent English, said Howe, and will also lecture on Chinese culture.

''The Chinese have also invited faculty from MSC to teach in China for one year," said Howe. "The Chinese will pay for travel and housing costs, in­cluding a small monthly wage of around $480."

Howe feels education is one of the most important ways for the U.S. and China to open doors.

"Back in 1949, we helped close the door on their culture and now it's time to

open It again," said Howe. "I also see this program as a way for

our faculty to travel to other parts of the world," continued Howe. "Our nation is smaller than it used to be and one of the problems with our educational system is that we're too American-culture orien­ted.

''China is important in expanding the breadth of our education because they represent a quarter of human population.''

Howe said the Chinese are excited about catching up in areas where they have fallen behind, such as technology and agriculture.

''I think basically the Chinese and Americans get along very well," said Howe. "The two cultures are pragmatic and open; they have a sense of respect for each other. Americans have always been looked at more favorably than other Western countries."

Howe's numerous trips to China have helped him establish strong contacts with Chinese educators. Through these contacts, anyone wishing to learn about China may do so through Metropolitan State College.

Eeature Not all food labels created equal

by Joan Conrow I If you are a discerning shopper and

make a habit of reading the labels of the food you buy, you have probably noticed that not all labels are created equal.

Although all labels must state certain information, other information is provided at the option of the manufac­turer or required only in specific situations.

The only information that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires on a food label is the name of the product, the net contents or weight and the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer or distributor.

The FDA also requires that most foods have a list of ingredients. The ingredients present in the largest amount, by weight, must always be listed first followed in descending order of weight by the other ingredients. Any additives used must also be listed, but colors and flavors do not have to be listed by name. If the flavors are artificial, this fact must be listed. Butter, ice cream, and cheese are not required to state the presence of artificial color. If additives are used as

preservatives, there must be some in­dication of this on the label.

Many manufacturers list nutritional information on the labels of their produc­ts. This information is generally optional and is only required by the FDA in specific instances. Any time a nutrient is added to a food, or a nutritional claim is made, the nutrition content must be listed on the label.

Another confusing topic for con­sumers concerns the use of the word "imitation" on a label. Under FDA regulations, the word "imitation" must be used on the label when the product is not as nutritional as the product it resem­bles or replaces. If the product is as nutritious as the one it is imitating, then it is usually given a new name. An example is naming egg-substitutes Eggbeaters or Scramblers rather than imitation eggs.

With the advent of prepared meals, the FDA has developed specific requirements for packaged foods that m·ust have the main ingredient added to them. For example, a mix to prepare chicken casserole must state on the label the ingredients needed to complete the

recipe. Use of the word "natural" on a label

is another area that generates both con­fusion and controversy among con­sumers.

"There's no legal definition for the word 'natural,' '' said Kathryn Brunner, consumer affairs officer for the FDA. "Consumers really have to be aware of what they're purchasing."

In a recent consumer survey, the FDA discovered that consumers want more nutritional information on their labels. They also wanted statements of the total amounts of sugar, salt, saturated fats and cholesteral on each product.

The FDA plans to update existing label regulations and develop new ones in response to consumer demands. The FDA is operating in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Federal Trade Commission on this project.

"One of our (FDA) premises is, we can't regulate what you eat, but you as a consumer have a right to know what's in a product," Brunner said.

Buying and eating food is no longer as simple as it was in the "good old days." With the growth of the food industry comes a maze of laws, an increased use of food additives

and the federal government consumer protection agency, the Food and Drug Administration.

In these articles on food additives and labeling laws, reporter Joan Conrow takes a look ­at what is in the food we eat.

~

'J6p1QJf. ~''W

·•

As part of the Food and Drug Administration labeling regulations, artificial flavors must be iden­tified on the label. The Dannon peach yogurt contains only peach flavors because it is labeled as "peach yogurt." The Yonson and King Soopers brand yogurts contain peach and other natural flavors because they re labeled as "peach flavored yogurt." The blueberry yogurt contains artifical flavors, a fact which must be stated plainly on the label.

Consumer demands !

being met In response to consumer requests,

the Food and Drug Administration, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Federal' "" Trade Commission (FTC) is proposing some changes in food labeling regulations. Following are some of the most significant changes.

Currently, colors, spices and flavors do not have to be listed on labels by specific name.

The proposed change would require food labels to carry specific names of all colors and spices, and of flavors that are known to cause health problems, such as allergies.

The FDA does not control claims that foods are "natural" or "organic" ;t

because the terms have not been specifically defined. The USDA does not permit the use of these terms on the labels of meat, egg products and poultry.

However, all three agencies agree that the terms "natural" and "organic" should not be used to mean that a product is inherently safer or nutritionally superior to other foods.

-FDAove1 by Joan Conrow

Because additives are so widely used, the safety of these substances is an impor­tant and often controversial issue:

The 1958 Food Additives Amen­dment and the 1960 Color Additives Amendment specifically regulate the use of food additives. A provision of these laws, the Delaney Clause, prohibits the use of a food additive, in any amount, if ,,. it has been shown to cause cancer in man or animals.

The Food and Drug Administration, the Federal government's primary con­sumer protection agency, regulates food additives solely on the basis of safety. The FDA has no power to limit the num­ber of additives approved, or judge whether a particular additive is really necessary.

To get an additive approved· by the FDA, the manufacturer must prove it is safe. This involves a lengthy and expen-sive process. ,_

The additive must first be subjected to chemical tests to make sure it does what it is intended to do and to determine

· if it can be analyzed and measured in the final product.

The additive is then fed in large doses, over an extended period of time, to at least two kinds of animals. These studies determine whether the additive causes cancer, birth defects or other r health problems.

The results of all the tests are then sumbitted to the FDA. If they indicate the additive is safe, the agency establishes ·""" regulations for how it can be used in foods.

A basic rule is that the manufacturer

Additives used to color, enrich, and process foods

I by Joan Conrow ] Additives are present in almost every

food we eat. By definition, a food additive is any

substance that becomes part of a food product when added directly or indirec­tly. This includes anything from artificial flavors and sugar to pesticide and drug residue.

Additives are most frequently used to make food appealing. Coloring agents, natural and synthetic flavors, and flavor enhancers are a few of the additives used to make food look and taste better. Three others - sugar, salt and corn syrup -are the most widely used food additives in this country. However, coloring agents are probably the most controversial. - The approximately 35 colors permit­ted for use in food are controversial because they are used solely to improve the appearance of a product. They con­tribute nothing to nutrition, taste or safety. Synthetic food colorings, usually derived from petroleum, are found in nearly all processed foods.

Additives such as vitamins and minerals are widely used to enrich and fortify many foods. Common nutritional additives include vitamin D in milk, vitamin C in fruit juices, iodine in salt and B vitamins in cereals and bread. Foods are fortified with these vitamins and minerals to help prevent deficiency diseases such as rickets, 'Scurvy and goiter and to replace nutrients that may have been destroyed in processing.

The food industry also relies heavily on additives that help process and prepare foods. These include the emulsifiers, stabilizers and thickeners, leavening agents and humectants. Use of these kinds of additives controls the taste, texture and stability of certain foods and insures uniform results in the finished product.

Probably the most well known of all the food additives are the preservatives. They are used most frequently to keep food fresh. These additives retard spoilage, preserve natural flavors and . colors, keep oils from turning rancid and protect foods from contamination by bacteria .

However, not all the additives found in food were put there intentionally. Minute residues of pesticides, drugs and chemical substances that migrate from packaging materials are some uninten-tional additives. ·

Unintentional additives are allowable in small amounts, according to Kathryn Brunner, consumer affairs of­ficer for the FDA. She said packaging materials are considered le~timate food additives and . must be tested for safety and approved for use with food.

Brunner said levels have been estab­lished for the various unintentional ad­ditives and a product can be removed from the marketplace if these levels have been exceeded.

may use only 1/lOOth the maximum amount of an additive that has been found not to produce any harmful effects

humans or animals who use it, then a test .----------~---------------------­

J.. in test animals. Because the testing of an additive is

the responsibility of the manufacturer, the FDA periodically inspects the resear­ch laboratories and reviews the testing data, said Kathryn Brunner, consumer

... affairs officer for the FDA. Brunner said there have been "only

a few instances where labs weren't doing a really professional job." She said testing an additive's safety costs between $300,000 and $500,000 and may take several years.

A question frequently raised about the legitimacy of an additive's safety con­cerns the large doses of the substance that are fed to the test animals.

Testing an additive's safety costs between

$300,000 and $500,000 and may take several

years.

Dr. Richard Bates', associate director for Carcinogensis Reseai:ch for the National Cancer Institute, said using high doses is the only practical way to deter-

~ mine if a substance will cause cancer in a small proportion of the people who use it.

If a low dose of a chemical might cause cancer in one out of every 100,000

to detect this cancer could take as many as 100,000 animals, Bates said. This is both expensive and time consuming, so a smaller number of animals are tested using a larger dose. He said this method produces quick results that are statistically meaningful at an acceptable cost.

However, two major categories of additives are exempt from the testing and approval process. The first is a group of about _ 700 substances "generally recognized as safe" (the GRAS list). The reason behind the GRAS list was to free the FDA and manufacturers from being required to prove the safety of substances already considered harmless because of past extensive use with no known har-mful-effect. -

"Prior sanctioned substances" are the second group of additives that are exempt from testing because they had beeri approved for use in food by either the FDA or the U.S. Department of Agriculture before 1958.

Recently, questions concerning the safety of some of these untested substan­ces have been raised. In 1971 the FDA began reviewing 450 substances on the GRAS list. Some of these additives may eventually be removed from the market or be required to undergo additional studies.

Despite the use of scientific testing procedures, legislation and the efforts of the FDA, some of the additives used by

Lhe food industry may be health hazards. Ultimately, it is the consumer's respon­sibility to be informed about the various additives and make a personal decision about which ones to use.

Many shoppers avoid processed foods

"When you eat a preservative, you 're preserving your body."

That is the belief of Jody Morris, who was shopping for " unprocessed, more natural, whole foods" at Green Mountain Grainery in Botllder.

Morris said she buys most of her groceries at Boulder heath food stores because- she _does not want the "highly processed and preserved" food sold at supermarkets.

"I just can't believe that eating chemicals is. good for you," Morris said. "I know they. test those things before they put them in •food, but I still think people get cancer from eating preser­vatives."

Another Boulderite, Beth Linden, said she will not eat ''anything with syn­thetic chemicals in it."

"The food industry doesn't care if the stuff they put in food causes health problems," Linden said. "All they care about is making money."

Linden said she does not believe the Food and Drug Administration operates in the best interest of the consumer in regulating food additives.

"They're just government , " she said. " I'm sure they have to play their political games."

Mark Pederson said he buys his food

from "health food stores" because "it tastes better." ·

He said he feels some concern about the use of additives in food and tries to avoid them.

"I'm not a fanatic like some health · food addicts," Pederson said, "But, as a Biology major at CU, I'm not convinced that we really know enough about the long-range, cumulative effects of syn-thetic additives on the body.'' ·

Pederson said he thinks more people would buy "natural" foods if they were less expensive. He said he used to buy all his groceries at Green Mountain Grainery, but as food prices rise he has begun shopping at King Soopers, too.

"I think there are a lot of myths about health food, " Pederson said. "Some people are into whole, . natural foods as a way of life, almost like a religion. That's okay with me, as long a5 they can afford it. 1

'

Pederson said he likes to shop at Green Mountain Grainery because the service is personalized and the food "isn't wrapped in miles of plastic."

"It's a nice place to shop," Peder­son said. "The people are nice and there's a lot of variety. Some of the stuff I get here just isn't available at King Soopers."

8 The Metropolitan August 6, 1980

Pulling the wool over time I by S. Peter Duray-Bito

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN. Starring Kirk Douglas and Martin Sheen. Directed by Don Taylor.

What an amazing indulgence for a movie.

Imagine what a modern, supersonic jet fighter would do to a World War II Japanese Zero fighter that begins to shake when pushed to 400 miles per hour. It is like pitting an 18th century galleon against a battleship or watching the slaughter of a Roman legion before a machine gun nest.

The writers of The Final Countdown enact such a scenario when, to heighten the incredulity, a nuclear powered air­craft carrier gets caught in a bizarre storm and goes back in time ... to Dec. 6, 1941, the day before the Japanese in­vasion of Pearl Harbor.

The officers on board the U.S.S. Nimitz proceed to ponder the question of whether they should take on the entire Japanese invasion fleet and rewrite the last 40 years of history.

They only fleetingly pause to think that destroying the Japanese would jeopardize their own existence.

Aside from stretching the imagination to intolerable limits, The Final Countdown is a well-paced action

movie that alternates between a Navy training film and a gripping tension not unlike, at times, that of The China Syn­drome.

When a captured Japanese airman grabs Katherine Ross as a hostage, the quick, dramatic resolution has some of the fine shot selection and editing of the final scene in The China Syndrome when a SW AT team moves in on Jack Lem­mon.

Many of the establishment scenes of the aircraft carrier show sailors running from the left side of the screen to the right, then from right to left, scrambling up and down ladders, pulling bomb carts and missles around, loading those weapons under fighters and helping pilots get into their aircraft. Despite a pretty good score by John Scott, the heavy metal thrashings of the present Navy commercial rings inside your head during these scenes.

Kirk Douglas looks and acts like an aging Roy Scheider; his gestures and facial expressions are strongly akin to Scheider's. Martin Sheen is a civilian "systems analyst" and as the story un­winds, Sheen takes on an observer's status and is drawn through the events much as he was in Apocalypse Now (though his persona is not nearly as in­timate with the viewer). Charles Durning

and Katherine Ross put in decent per­formances when their yacht is shot up by the Japanese.

With the strength and quality of our armed forces in question these days, a movie like The Final Countdown is out to make the U.S. forces look good. The screen rumbles as fighters are catapulted off the carrier - afterburners tracing patterns in the sky and sophisticated elec-

-4 tronics running the show. With each shot of military hardware in action, the cash registers in the Defense Department are ringing in the dollars.

But the concept is a hollowed shell of pure fantasy. Turning all this firepower against vintage technology will hardly get .-. any of us excited about U.S. military capability.

Caddyshack and Used Cars A sampling of funny films for this

summer reveals Caddyshack and Used Cars to be fine stimulators of the brain's laugh center.

Caddyshack is about havoc at a golf course and features funny stuff by Chevy Chase, Ted Knight, Rodney Dangerfield and Bill Murray. Chase is a golf pro_ whose occasional flare-ups are about what we've come to expect of him. Knight and Dangerfield are at odds; Knight is the proper and conservative owner of the golf course that nouveau riche Dangerfield wants to buy out. They have it out over a game of golf.

Bill Murray is isolated in the funpiest role of the movie: a greenskeeper charged with hunting down pesky gophers that tear up the golf course. We find Murray behind a bunker of turf sod as he loads a rifle with a large flashlight attached to it

and, with twisted lips, he murmurs ob­scenities at the ugly varmints. Tliis ex­Marine spoof on AjJocalypse Now con­tinues when Murray shapes plastic ex­plosives into little gophers, squirrels and ! other small animals, and blows the golf course sky high.

Used Cars begins with more promise than it ends. Kurt Russell and Jack War­den turn in fine performances as battling car lot owners. Their antics to attract customers culminate when Russell plugs '

· into a presidential address and runs his TV ad. Jimmy Carter comes back on seemingly agreeing with the illegal ad.

The laughs thin a bit as the plot thickens. The clean, gonzo elements of the first half of the film are undermined ._ by the HollY\\'.ood practice of trying to make a story.

Still worth seeing, though.

Another Blondie in the wings· -f bys. Peter Duray-Bito

NERVUSREX ~haun Brighton - lead vocals, guitar; · Lauren Agnelli - guitars, keyboards,

vocals; Diane Athey - bass; Jonathan Lee Gildersleeve - drums. Produced by Mike Chapman.

* * * * Mike Chapman may very well have (..another Blondie on his hands.

Nervus Rex has that open dance hall sound similar to Blondie: classic har­monies forcefully played by a strong rhythm section and inspired by clear, lilting vocals.

With the sex complement split .equally down the middle, there is no

single Deborah Harry-type stand-out in this band.

Instead, the two men and two ·women of Nervus Rex divide their musical talents equally and successfully.

Gildersleeve is a strong, effortless ..._drummer given the same prominent mix

- Chapman gave Clem Bur!ce of Blondie. Brighton and Agnelli share vocal

duties superbly. Their ,style is late '60s teen songs mixed with new wave tone and syncopation.

There is less Motown influence here -.,than with Blondie and the overall feel of

the album is capped off by a stirring ren­dition of "Venus," the 1968 hit by Shocking Blue.

A highly listenable album.

lNEWRE

-" NO FRIGHT

Live Wire Mike Edwards - vocals, guitars; Simon Boswell - guitar, keyboards, vocals; Jeremy Meek - ba,ss, vocals; German

..-A&M SP-4814 • **Yi

What do you do when you have the new wave sound down really well and you just don't have talent?

Live Wire covers all ends: a tight, percussive drummer, a funky, lick-rich bassist and enough twanging, tinker-toy rhythm guitars to fill up the entire sound

· field. Musically, Live Wire is closest to The Police, and the whole band playing the lead section in unison, broken up by quick bass, guitar or drum fills.

Mike Edwards slips between the usual American rock drawl and a Jamaican reggae accent. But he doesn't have enough variety in tone or emotion to keep himself kicking all the way through.

· The rest of the band plays very well and some of the harmonies sound pretty good. Ultimately,. though, the narrowness of their sound belies a bar circuit background.

. At today's album· prices, pass this one.

GIVE ME THE NIGHT George Benson Benson - vocals, guitar; Lee Ritenour ·­guitar; Louis Johnson - bass; John Robinson - drums; Claire Fischer, Herbie Hancock, Michael Boddicker - keyboar­ds; Patti Austin - vocals. Produced by Quincy Jones. Warner HS 3453

* * * Yi George Benson has made the tran-sition from guitarist to vocalist.

What little guitar he does play on Give Me The Night is hopelessly lost in the orchestration.

The album still comes off quite well, largely due to Quincy Jones' impeccable production and the Sounstream digital master tape.

Benson doesn't sing . too badly,

either. His voice holds up well throughout the album and, in addition to his mellow vocal style and guitar­accompanied scat singing, Benson tries an old James Moody and Eddie Jefferson number, "Moody's Mood," in Jeffer­son's own distinct vocal style.

Jones provides Benson with a fine back-up, including guitarist Lee Ritenour on nearly every track. In fact, on Love Dance, Benson forgets his guitar and Ritenour plays an acoustic accom­paniment.

L15uis Johnson is maturing into a fine, careful bass player with a sassy touch of funk that makes him sound like no one else. And jazz educator Claire Fischer makes a guest appearance on his old siandard, the Fender Rhodes, as well as playing some of the new Yamaha keyboard instruments.

There is nothing really new or unusual here . - just a finely conceived album throughout.

Even if Benson never did get that TV show ...

CHICAGO Peter Cetera - bass; Laudir deOliveira -percussion; Robert Lamm - keyboards; Lee Loughanne - trumpet; James Pankow - trombone; Walter Parazaider -woodwinds; Danny Seraphine - drums.

* *

Some bands never change. Recently, Chicago's trombonist,

James Pankow, announced the band's new approach in response to the new wave sound.

But from the very first track, Chicago's traditional vocal flavor and in­strumental style permeates the entire album. True, there are some "heavier" arrangements than Chicago's recent disco binge, but the essence is still Chicago.

And that essence is rather shallow, as Chicago all too readily sways to the latest trend in music.

This practice has also kept them alive for over a decade.

If you don't know anything about Chicago, but would like to, find the original Chicago Transit Authority double album, Columbia PG-8.

We know what it's like to go to school and have to work at the same time. Spend half the day en route between work and school. Or having to give up an important class because of fixed work hours.

Time-Life, Inc. has the answer. Our office is located less than two blocks from campus. So you can park your car in an all-day lot and get some exercise.. And with our flexible hours you can schedule your work around class - · instead of class around work.

But that's not the best part of working at Time-Life, Inc. We can seriously give you the opportunity to earn full-time ·pay from part-time work. As a nation­al firm, we can offer the best base pay, bonuses and benefits in the industry.

THREE POINTS TO REMEMBER. ABOUT TIME-LIFE, INC.:

1. Hours. If you have alternating morn· ing and afternoon classes, you can come in and work during your free time.

TI

3. Pay. Our base pay is $3.25 an. hour ($3.40 after 6 weeks) plus commissions and bonuses. It's not unrealistic to · t assume you can earn over $100 in a 20 hour work week. 7_
