In a Slaccato discussion

‘'T asked Kitimat cily

LIQUID GOLD
Play well received

By Greg Middleton

A goud crowd turned out to
see the Tamohnous Theatre
production of ‘Liquid Gold‘
on Salurday. The audience
of about 450 quickly warmed
to the touring actors,
although the building itself
stayed noticeably cool,

The play, wrillen by Glen
Thompsen, who was born in
Kitimat, and Bruce Ruddell,
issetina B.C, fishing village
in 1921. The liquid gold is, of
course, the illegal liquor
which made many of the
fortunes of the day,

Liquid Gold, which is
playing in Kitimat lonight is
on tour partly. through the
sponsorship of the Canada
Council. That Canada
Cuuncil fund, by the way, the
one which helps bring this
professional touring group to
eight northern communities
and half a dozen of the more
isulated lower mainland and
Vancouver Island towns as
well as Vancouver and
Nanaimo, is being
tically cul back.

While the play took a
rather obvious political slant
rigtit from the beginning and
the rhetorle got a little heavy
handed fi¢ar the end,’'there
was a great deal of good
entertainment as well.

One of the strongest actors
in the play was Richard

Newman, why portrayed the
buvilegger, Moan Morgan.
While he was a powerful
presence un stage, I had a
little difficulty accepting
‘him as he seemed an un-
cumfortable mixture uf 1Bth
century, British rum runner
and a Yankee muonshiner.
That peculiar blend didn't,
for me at least, seem to go
down quite as smoothly as a
member of the Canadian
club of burder-crossing spiril
merchabts.

Tom Braidwoud, who with
Thompson wrate the lyrics
for the sungs in the play,
came off well as the mer-
merchant, Mort Wheeler.
Through the course of the
‘play, Wheeler gues through a
conversion from the shirt-

sleeved general store owner -

to the three piece suit-style
entrepreneur at the hands of
two American sharpies.
Jackie Crossland, as the
blousey representative of the
local service industry of the
day, was amusing if a little
weak in places. Edward
Astley, however, was
priceless as the Dudley
Doowright portrayal of a
Mountie, complete with a
vision of fully uniformed
redcoals duing turns on their
hurses to music, He called
them the Prancing
Policemen.

It is unfortunate thal the

Bub MeClelland said that the
unit would nul pay taxes
since huspitats did not pay
taxes.

Thornhill Directur Les
Watmough suggested to
council that Premier Ben-
nett should take McCleliand
into a closet and have a long
ialk with him.

Joiliffe trict again by
gaying,"‘this is nu time to
split and divide, we should be
united to get this health anil!"

Thom said that Terrace
should not worry about the
heakh unit any more since

Kitimat would pick up the

entire cost whether ur nol the
government pays laxes,

However, in a final shot
Thom added,‘ BC BC will
pay taxes, everyone knows
that except the Terrace
council’

RCMP policeman's ball was
held at (he same time as the
performance in Terrace su
that none of the Ipcal con-
stabulary saw this spoof of
Canada’s finest.

One vignette =—- which
brought the house duwn was
Larry Lillo and Daryll
Kaufman doing a take off un
the American cuast guard.
The over-officious ensigr
probably got the best laughs
of the evening.

It was perhaps unfurtunate
that many of the
malapropisms, punny
misuse of words, that were
interspersed throughuut
Wheeler's dialogue were
lussed away su quickly. It
might huwever, have slowed
the play down lou much had
he given them sufficient
emphasis and wailed for the
laughs.

While the play did becume
a bit too much of a political
diatribe in the secund act for
my taste, as the authors
wanted to complete their
condemnation of the
capitalist ‘company ‘slore’,
the actors got thal necessary
bit mure confident by then.
It was all in all a good
evening’s enterLainment and
as a trio of youngsters whu
were seeing their first live
theatre commented, il was
better than television.

US. railways working

WASHINGTON (AP) —
Railways across the U.S.
began resuming normal
operations during the
weekend after nearly the
entire rail system was shut
down for four days by
picketing clerks.

The Brotherhood of
Railway and Airline Clerks,
complying with a federal
court order, removed its
pickets, and rail workers
began returning to their jobs
Saturday. Trains began
rolling within hours, but
normal operations on the
country's rail lines were not
expected for several days.

Amtrak, which was able to
provide transportation for
only about half its usual
52,000 daily passengers
during the strike, resumed
its short-distance runs durig
the weekend, and said long-
distance trains would be
returning to service by

today.

Striking clerks began
picketing 73 railroads that
were providing the Norfolk
and Western with financial
assistance under a mutual
ald pact. The railway had
kept up its operations, with
supervisory personnel
operating trains, since the
union went on strike July 10
ina dispute over loss of jobs
to automation and union
representation of super-

visors.

President Carter stepped
into the dispute Thursday
and ordered the clerks back
to work as the movement of
manufactured goods, raw
materials and agricultural

products ground to a halt.

However, the clerks
stayed out until Jate Friday
when U.S. District Judge
Aubrey Robinson issued a
temporary injunction
against the walkout. The in-
junction also included
protection from reprisals for
strikers and workers who
refused to cross picket lines.

Using the 1926 Railway
Labor Act, Carter ordered

the 4,600 railway clerks back
to work and set up an
emergency board to study
thedispute. After 60 days the
workers could resume the
strike if no settlement is
reached.

Robinson’s injunction
expires in 10 days and he
scheduled a hearing for Oct,
10 on whether the order
should be extended through
the end of the 60-day cooling-
off period.

Better chess played

BAGUIO, Philippines
(Reuter) — Viktor Korchnoi
won the 28th game Sunday in
his world title match against
champion Anatoly Karpov
by playing some of the best
chess of the 11-week battle.

When the game was ad-
journed Saturday night the
47-year-old challenger, a
Soviet defector; held . the
advantage and he main-
tained the pressure Sunday
until Karpov resigned 19
moves later, ‘

Karpov's delegation chief
Viktor Balurinsky said later
that overnight analysis
convinced Karpov there was
no way of salvaging a draw.

A jubilant Korchnoi said
he thought Karpov had
played too fast and
overlooked chances thal
could have gained him a
draw.

The 28th game starled with
Korchnoi having — the
theorelical disadvantage of
the black pieces, giving the
champion first move.

WEATHER

Today will be mainly
cloudy with a few showers
and some sunny periods this
afternoon. The temperature
should reach a high near 15
degrees Celsius sometime
this aflernoun, wilh Lhe
mercury dipping down lo 8
degrees Celsius tonight.
Another weak weather
system approaching the
coast will bring cloudy skies
and showers lo the Terrace-

Kitimat area for most of the
day tomurrow.

Though this inclemant
weather may put a damper
on vuldoor activities for the
lime being, with a little luck
the weather may improve
somewhat later on this week,
week, and hopefully some of
that ‘Indian summer’ may
show itself befure winter sets
in.

Karpov’s playing history
shows he has almost never
lost with white.

Korchinoi went into a
turbulent variation of the
Ruy Lopez opening that has
landed him in trouble
several times previously in
the match. Bul this time he
gained a slight initiative and
spurned an implied offer of a
draw by the champion
through repetition of moves.

When they resumed
Sunday he.made no mistake
in pressing home his ad-
vantage in a double ruvk and
pawn ending.

The 2th game _ is
scheduled for Tuesday,
putting the championship
match into its 12th week.

Beer
causes
dispute

NEW YORK (AP) —
Lowenbrau beer, a
popular brand in Canada
and the United States, has
become a centre of con-
troversy here,

It has been brewed
since 1383 in Munich,
West Germany, still the
sole suurce of ils import
into Canada, It is nol
bottled in Canada but the
Liquor Control Board of
Ontario, which carries 30
imported brands, says it
is one uf its best-selling
imporls. .

But ask Miller Brewing
Cy. here and it will say
the Lowenbrau sold in the
U.S. comes from Miller
breweries in Texas,
Wisconsin, New York and
California. .

Ask brewery .
representative Jacques
Bobbe of Orlando, Fia.,
and he'll say Lowenbrau
comes from Zurich,
Switzerland.

Who's right? Both, and
that further confuses the
issue of what's in lhe
name Lowenbrau—“Lion
Brew" in English.

One facet of the issue is
befure Ihe Federal Trade
Commission, which is
investigating a charge by
Anheuser-Busch Ine.,
largest brewer in the
U.S., that Miller, the
secund largesl, led
cunsumers to believe ils
Lowenbrauy came from
Germany rather than the
US.

Miller, a division of
Philip Morris Inc., has
denied the allegation.
saying it is confident that
“all our advertising is
truthful, accurate and in
full compliance with the
law."

But the question of
what's behind the beer
label also is being raised
by Swiss Lowenbrau,
gradually making its
appearance on store
shelves, The Swiss beer
sells for $4.50 to $5 for a
six-pack compared wilh
$2.79 for the Miller brand.

Asked how Miller feels
aboul the uther Lowen-
bran, spokesman Guy
Smith said the company
“is aware" of the Swiss
beer. “It's no surprise to
anybody.”

The . Lowenbrau
brewery in Switzerland
bought the rights early
this century to sell its
beer anywhere in the
world, and the beer has:
been available here in
small quantities for 25
vears.
