Concert Season Busy These Days
Concert season is a busy
time, no matter which way we
listen! And I have been
listening in several directions
lately. Took a trip over to
Athens last week and enjoyed
the Christmas Concert by the
musical organizations of the
University of Georgia. Came
back and enjoyed the music of
the Red Peppers at Lanier
Village Shopping Center
heralding Santa’s arrival, and
ushering in the the Christmas
season. That was one of two
engagements for them last
Saturday, the other being at
the benefit show for the
Volunteer Fire Department.
And they will be playing this
Would DeMille Shim Hollywood Graffiti Stuff?
HOLLYWOOD - Charles
Higham, the Australian
movie buff and poet who
wrote the new DeMille biog
raphy “Cecil B. DeMille,”
says if DeMille were a young
man today he doesn’t think he
would work in Hollywood at
all.
Because movies aren’t what
they used to be.
“DeMille believed in a very
traditional story line,”
Higham points out, “a very
powerful story line. He was
such a 19th Century type.”
In other words, “American
Graffiti” would not have been
his dish.
Higham has been a DeMille
fan almost all of his life.
“When I was a little boy,”
he remembers, “my parents
would offer to take me to a
Disney film as a holiday treat,
and I’d shock them by saying,
‘No. I want to see DeMille.’
The first picture I ever saw
was his ‘Northwest Mounted
Police,’ and I loved it. He had
such a feeling for pageantry.”
Higham has a notion movie
making has gone mostly
downhill since his idol, C. 8.,
left the business.
“Pornographic films are
made by people who hate
sex,” he thinks. “In so many
of the DeMille films, relation
ships were absolutely charged
with sex; though it wasn’t ex
plicit. Now sex is used on the
screen for crude, commercial
exploitation.”
While many writers have
taken a crack at the DeMille
story, Higham’s the first to
have worked inside the
DeMille estate.
If you are keen about the
movies’ Golden Era, you’ll
like his book. It’s short enough
to read quickly and interest
ing enough to remember.

Their family doctor is en

Everett to have another baby,

maybe we’ll have news in that

It’s not peaches and cream
with Sonny and Cher. For one
thing, she hasn’t been feeling
well. I do wish, though, that
the duo’s representatives
would get their stories
straight. While one spokes
man for the team was telling

It’s His Story
The Bible is one book, one
story. His story. .When you
look carefully through it, you
find one great purpose. “It is
this, God is redeeming a
sinful world.” Don’t suppose
reading little scraps of this
great revelation of God will
ever give you an idea of the
wonders of the Word.
“I supposed I knew my Bible,
Beading piecemeal, hit or
miss
Now a bit of John or Matthew,
Now a snatch of Genesis;
Certain chapters of Isaiah,
Certain Psalms (the twenty
third)
Twelfth of Romans, First of
Proverbs,
Yes, I thought I knew the
Word!
But I found that thorough
reading
week as Governor Carter
comes to town.
Incidentally, the Peppers
are in the process of getting
new uniforms, and each time
we see them, they’ve added
another part! Hopefully, soon
they will have completely new
outfits, and we won’t have
“something old—something
new”! The uniforms are
courtesy of the donations
various organizations here at
home and other places have
given for the Peppers’ per
formances this year.
We missed the big white
bass Saturday, and the
grinning face of Ernie
tal suffering from anemia, a
family pal was telling a pal of
mine that Sonny was in Palm
Springs while Cher was in Los
Angeles shopping for a Hal
loween costume for Chastity.
Finally, the Bono publicist
told me that the two were at
home together chuckling over
the silly rumors that they’d
been fighting. Whatever the
truth may be, Sonny and Cher
have postponed indefinitely
their next appearance at Lake
Tahoe. The date will be filled
by Jim Nabors.

says— Jim Brolin will make
his producing debut in Febru
ary when “Peterbilt” begins
to roll. ... Jackie Coogan and
Efrem Zimbalist Jr., eating
breakfast together, were
complaining that, if they’d
just kept some of the automo
biles they sold years ago,
they’d be zillionaires today.
“J used to be a Rolls dealer,”
Coogan exclaimed. “When I
think about those custom cars
I sold to Connie Bennett.
Wow! What they’d bring on
today’s classic car market!”
... Dena Dietrich, who plays
“Mother Nature” in the tele
vision commercials and a sec
retary on “Adam’s Rib,” has
been signed for a role in Play
boy production’s “Vrooder’s
Hooch.” Honest, that’s the
name of the flick. In the same
movie, 81-year-old George
Marshall, who’s been a direc
tor for the past 59 years, will
return to acting. Marshall got
his Hollywood start in 1913 at
Universal playing an extra
but soon shifted to directing
silent westerns. In “Vrooder’s
Hooch” (gee, I hate that
name) he plays a wheel-chair
confined vet of World War I.

Just before you kneel,

And yawn through a hurried

You who treat the Crown of

As you treat no other book
Just a paragraph disjointed,
Just a crude, inpatient look
Try a worthier procedure,
Try a broad and steady view;

One group of F.O.C.
members went to Gainesville
Saturday to audition for Jr.
Allstate Band. This
organization is comprised of
students from all over the
state, who audition in each
district. Those who pass
district auditions go to the
statewide auditions in
January, and, if they pass,
are members of the elite
Allstate Band. We hope to
have some good news for you

T. is encouraged that so many
of the younger members are
interested in furthering their
musical experience and
trying out for some of the
extra advantages offered
outside the F.O.C. Just the
fact that they are auditioning
is good; it enables them to be
heard and judged by various
musicians and teachers, and
pinpoints the problems they
are having and helps them to
work on those trouble spots. It
also gives them a certain
amount of confidence that the
younger members need.

Mr. T. are working daily
toward the Christmas Concert
December 18th.
As many of you know, we
always have a special name
for our F.O.C. presentations,
and this year’s Christmas
offering will be called
“Christmas Treasure”. As we
explore this season and its
music, we think you will enjoy
the treasure we discover, and
we want you and your family,
neighbors, and friends to join •
us. We know how much you
have to do before Christmas,
how busy and rushed you are,
how tired you will be by the
18th. All the more reason why
we want you to take one
show. In fact, she went on for

evening, just a little while, to
come out and join us.
I don’t believe anyone who
has come has ever regretted
the time spent with these
young people and their music.
In fact, I have heard a lot of
people say that they lost their
tiredness, forgot the petty
hassles and gripes of the
Christmas rush, and
rediscovered the Christmas
spirit that we all too often lose
sight of these days.
So, if you’ve never been, or
if you’ve always been, join us
on the evening of December
18th, in the gym, at 8 p.m. and
let’s open our “Christmas
Treasure” together.
