Show Park Record Thursday, July 2, 1987 Page B3 Main Street Deli Neal Palumbo It's time again to roll your dice on the table as Park City Performances once again hosts another Casino Royale fundraiser, on July 18, from 7 p.m. to midnight. PCP to host casino fundraiser If you view life as a bit of a crap-shoot crap-shoot you're going to love this year's Park City Performances fundraiser. Chaired by Joanne Krajeski those thespians will roll the dice, spin the wheel and deal the cards for an evening of fun labeled Casino Royale.

And for those who wish to just gamble on having the top bid, famed auctioneer Mike Scott will offer items from a weekend for two at the luxurious Boulders resort in Arizona to a 14-karat gold and gemstone from Family Jewels. Business manager, David Fleisher looks forward another What editors 'like to see' by JOHN KINCH Record staff writer For a writer finding the magical formula of "what editors like to see" is like a prospector discovering the lost city of El Dorado. At a WRITERS AT WORK seminar last Thursday, a panel of editors told the audience "what they like to see" in fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. What they like to see is not as simple as a key that unlocks a treasure trove of published manuscripts. Instead they like writing that "doesn't bore" them, has "saleable ideas," "readibility," ! "full-of-life voice" and a self-addressed self-addressed stamped envelope attached. attach-ed. All of these are hardly avenues to becoming a one-minute manager of words. But, nevertheless, they offer a glimpse into a world, hidden from most writers. Shannon Ravenel, editor for Algonquin Books, said she reads so many manuscripts each day that the writing has to grab her attention early or she will not finish it. Leslie Wells, editor for E.P. Dutton, agreed with Ravenel and added that even something as seemingly insignificant insignifi-cant as a spelling error in the first paragraph might be a road block to an editor. Jeanne McCulloch, editor for Paris Review, gave specific advice, saying address manuscripts to her. Sending a manuscript to just Paris Review might mean she never gets to see it and it likely will never see the light of day. McCulloch said her magazine prides itself on publishing a wide range of writing from new and established authors, varying styles, and wide content. It publishes 12-15 stories a year. Esquire, on the other hand,' publishes fewer stories a year, and a good chunk of them are from established writers. Rust Hills, fiction fic-tion editor, said he often gets letters requesting Esquires's guidelines for fiction. Hills called those "idiotic," saying the magazine has no guidelines; if they like something, they like it. As a footnote, Hills added that he takes the stamp off the SASE of guideline-requests letter and throws it in a drawer for later use. If an editor likes a manuscript, heshe then tries to convince other editors to read it, then tries to convince con-vince the sales department the book has money-making potential, then works out what kind of advance the writer would get based on number of books on first printing, and then 18 months later the book gets published. publish-ed. Write well about what you know about was, perhaps, the only consensus consen-sus of the panel. Although all the editors on the panel were genuinely interested and passionate about their work, anxious to help new authors, kind with rejection rejec-tion letters, their advice about what editors like to see was at the same time sobering and not real tangible tangi-ble in fact, as elusive as a cache of gold.

For his efforts, ef-forts, he won a sandwich from the Main Street Deli. Dave knew that Barry Nelson was the first actor to play James Bond (in a live television production produc-tion of "Casino Royale" in 1954); that a piebald horse is black and white; and that Hell's Kitchen was a tough neighborhood in Manhattan.

What movie executive did F. Scott Fitzgerald base his unfinished un-finished novel "The Last Tycoon" Ty-coon" on? 3. What was Joe Friday's badge number in "Dragnet"? REO attracts young crowd A young but controlled crowd of people gathered on the slopes of ParkWest Friday evening to hear the sounds of REO Speedwagon, part of United Concert's summer series at the ski resort. Lead singer Kevin Cronin told the audience, "I thought Park City looked look-ed good with snow on it, but it looks pretty good green!" adding, "You all don't look like you're hurting people; peo-ple; you look pretty good too." With that the band embarked on some songs not all too familiar to the casual listener of the rock group, such as "I Don't Want to Know," before performing one of its most popular tunes, "Tough Guys," to which the crowd cheered. As the concert progressed the group dabbled between its hits and its own favorites, playing "One Too Many Girlfriends," "Keep Pushing," "Take it on the Run, Baby," and "Find a New Way to Love." Concert-goers enjoyed good weather at the June 26 concert, and even the crowd-controllers seemed to have an organized evening. By the time darkness set in, the audience was swaying back and forth to "I Can't Fight the Feeling" and "Back on the Road Again." But after an hour's worth of performing, per-forming, the stage went dark, and was quiet for several minutes. There were grumblings that the concert was too short. But the tones from a grand piano on the stage rang out through the darkness, to the melody of REO love song "Keep on Loving You." The audience, once in the band's grip again, put on their collective dancing shoes to "Keep on Running." Runn-ing." Not to be missed during the evening was one of REO's earliest hits, written in 1973 to tell people to keep together and be unified: "Riding the Storm Out." Following that old favorite was "Don't Let Her Go," "Shaking it Loose Tonight," "In My Dreams," and "I Believe It's Time for Me to Fly." United Concerts officials reported that about 6,600 people attended the show, saying it went "great," and was one of the best concerts of the season.
