Thursday . past, Marshall Marinakis local concert promoter and club owner (C 'est Bon Entertainment Lounge) received word that he would indeed be able to add the legendary delta bluseman Josh Lee Hooker to the bill of his upcoming Terrace show which is headlining the very popular Charlie Daniels Band, John Lee Hooker was born near Clarksdale, Mississippi in either 1915 or 1917 depending on which of his album liner notes you wish to beleive. At any seems he began to play spirituals about the twelve. This lasted about a year. Then I put that down and just started playing the blues," he remembers. This was the Delta "Blues. The idiom established years earlier by such historical pickers as Robert Johnson, Son House, Bucca White, and Blind Lemon Jefferson., Blind Lemon, who came to see Hooker's step father William Moore when John Lee was nine years old, became one of his main influences. At the age of fourteen, having absorbed much of the styles of James Smith and Coot Harris, Hooker had become an accomplished blues singer and guitar about rapidly. Due largely to his extemporaneous song-writing abilities, many of these tunes originated during live perfromances and recording sessions. With the emergence of the early 60's "Folic Revival", black blues performers were introduced to an entirely new audience. Hooker and his fellow bluesmen were now playing more to college aged whites than to the mostly black ghetto crowds they had drawn before. As this mixed-culture phenomonon has already been the subject of many sociological and psychological papers, it will not be entered into here! Hooker currently spends up to 250. days a year on the road, including annual European and Canadian toursT , The coupling of John Lee Hooker with the Charlie Daniels Band seem on the surface to be another one. of those cross-cultural affairs. However, once one peeks below that surface, black and white quickly, homogonize into "Southern", and that is what this concert will feature in the main Southern music. From the "boogie" to the "breakdown", from the hills of Tennessee to the heart of the Mississippi Delta, from the influences of Jimmie Rodgers and Hank Williams to those of Robert Johnson and Blind, (L. to R.)

In terms of alpine skiing, this can mean contending with throngs of fellow devotees (and rookies) crowding the runs, and an expense including pass and equipment easily into hundreds of dollars. The holy quest is for speed, a rush, that certain sense of flight. For a growing number of sliders, gliders, the pace will be more of their own determining, the vistas limitless, and, while the total cost to equip for cross-crountry can just bump $100, don't be misled there is no selling short appetites for adventure. On the contrary. Jim Miller, Steve Erickson, Bob and Nancy Kassow, professional, Nordic skiers in their-third their-third winter, founders of the White Pine Ski Touring Center, are as hungry' for a thrili,"a chill, a taste of real Utah powder as any alpine hotdog. The way I see it gleams Bob Kassow, a Nordic racer who taught last year from Park City, "It's twice the fun at half the speed. I can be doing 12-15 miles an hour and know I'm radically out of control." Steve Erickson is an alpine skier who ventured into the back country to pursue adventuresome skiing in powder-full natural gulleys when the alpine runs had been skied clean. While touring is for Steve a broadening of skiable terrain, it is for Jim Miller an extension of his back country exploration begun years ago on snow shoes. For twoears, swapping Jim's familiarity with the back woods environment The Day Lodge at White Pine Canyon is a cozy and Steve's proficiency and technique in skiing, the resting, meeting place for day skiers.

Adell is no stranger to the business. In the Los Angeles area, where she lived for "nearly thrity years" after having been born and raised in Mid vale, Utah, she had been involved with several restaurants, and owned two: the Pancake Platter and The Gallion. "For sixteen years I owned and ran the Pancake Platter," Plat-ter," Adell continued, "and then when I sold it the new owner came in and changed everything the menu, you name it. And, do you know, in the past five years it's changed hands no fewer than five times."

The requirements of each big brother or sister are that they spend an average of one to two hours weekly in a friendship-type role with their little brother or sister, attend a one-hour training and discussion session weekly week-ly and attend the monthly party -activity provided for them and their little brother or sister. Hours that are spent in all of these activities are documented and volunteers volun-teers are given credit for performance under a federal ACTION grant, which can be beneficial to their future employment status while giving them the opportunity to gain marketable skills. More volunteers are needed, however, in order to provide big brothers and sisters for all the 7-13 year olds who either need or desire this kind or relationship. It is the desire of the Palefire staff that this opportunity not be limited to only high school students but any person in the community who would like to participate.
