The film will also be shown free to the public at the University of Utah's Orson Spencer Hall Monday at 9 p m Utah-Slavi- New concerts had reportedly sold out within less than 24 hours. Question of Profit The question of profit as well as charity arose last weekend when the tour appeared to previously sold-ou- t run into economic trouble in Jacksonville, Fla., where the $30 tickets did not go like hotcakes. Until then, all in Kansas City and Dallas concerts had sold out days ahead of time. Chuck Sullivan, the New York-basepromoter hired by the Jack-son- s nationto handle the wide tour, said that the Jacksonville performances did finally sell out. Victory publicist Howard Bloom had predicted that the tour would rebound in New York, where tickets went on sale Monday at 8 a.m. and were gone by 5:30 p.m. He blamed the smaller population of northern Florida for the sluggish ticket sales there. Smaller Metm Area "The Jacksonville metroplex, with a population of 700,000 to 800,000, is the size of New York less than City, Bloom said. We sold 128,000 tickets in Jacksonville bringing the total sold for the tour so far to more than 400,000. Most groups dont sell 400,000 tickets on an entire tour. Bloom also said a change in how tickets are sold accounted for part of the problem in Jacksonville.

Jackson announced July 5, before the tour opened in Kansas City, Mo., that all the money I make would be donated to charity. Three National Charities Two tour sources said this week that an announcement on the charities Michael Jackson has selected should be made soon possibly as soon as Sunday when the Victory Tour is performing in the New York-NeJersey area. Three national charities are reportedly under consideration, but Jackson is still working out details on exactly how the charities will use the Victory money, whether for health services or . . a. d five-mon- th w scholarships, etc., according to sources. Ticket sales alone for the Jackson Brothers tour had already reached $12 million as of last weekend, promoters said. Last Sunday, a total of 150,000 tickets to five a The supporters of 84 include the Utah Arts Council, Anheuser-Busch Inc and the Utah Folk-lif- e who drafted local musiCenter, cians to perform Slovene accordion and tamburitza music. Mr Miller, who himself is of ic descent, said the festival offers all a glimpse of the rich culture of Yugoslavia "The Slavics are very warm people, the festival is more intimate than other festivals of its kind," said Mr. Miller "The people, the dancing, the music it's fantastic a '84 runs Friday 7pm to 12 30 am, Saturday 10 a m to 2 a m , with a dance workshop review and recovery session held Sunday (Aug 5) beginning at 1 30 p m There will be a $10 charge for the Saturday night dinner, performance and dance party.

According to publicist Bloom, State of Shock and "Torture" will be introduced in one of the New York-are- a concerts.

While charities may see no money until after the tour is over, they have received their share of free tickets. Promoter Sullivan has been giving away at least 500 tickets per concert to the poor or infirm. In Dallas, 2,100 tickets were distributed to the handicapped and terminally ill. In Jacksonville, Mayor Jake Godbold distributed 2,100 tickets to handicapped and disadvantaged youth, according to his press secretary, Martha Barrett. In Kansas City, tickets were distributed through Mayor Dick Berkleys office to something like 55 agencies, through the United Way, according to Russ Cline, a local publicist who handled the Kansas City opening of the tour. There were very critically ill people. People who had only a very short time to live. In fact, we had people of just about every disability or disadvantage. sas City and Dallas, tickets had to be ordered by mail, but that method was scrapped when fans complained about the minimum purchase (blocks of four for $120) and their lack of conand trol in seat selection. Front-roseats cost the same. A computer in New York randomly selected who got the best and worst seats. In Jacksonville, tickets were sold directly from the box office or ticket agencies, which complicated matters. The ticket agency computer went down, so we had to 25,000 tickets to Gainesville and Tallahassee, Bloom said.
