Mr. Showbiz
has new gig

By ROBERT BARR
NEW YORK (AP) — He's
got a new gig. He's hot. He's
happening. He's a nutty kind
of guy, but just a fabulous,
fabulous cat. Mr. Showbiz is

available for interviews.
So what's the deal here?

The only guy who showed
up at the appointed hour was
Paul Shaffer, star-struck key
board man from Thunder
Bay, Ont., earnest and ami
able as he answered ques.
tions.

“I hope you don’t think

Shaffer said. “I've been a
studio musician for a little
while, I've -had to learn how
to cope with all different

these guys.”
“But Fats on record, he

car, even got up on the piano
— carefully.

He's 51 this year.

‘As far as Shaffer is con
cerned, Jerry Lee is still The
Killer.

“The first time I saw him 1
stood about a foot away and
watehed him. Same this
time,” Shaffer said. “He does
some things that are worth
knowing about.”

said, sounding pained by the
thought. “I take that chance,
obviously.

“I pretend to be. I find
most people seem to get it,
but if anybody doesn't get it I
don't really care.”

As the bandleader on Late
Night with David Letterman,
Shaffer has made a virtue of
insincerity as he natters on in
the hip-sleaze dialect of show

Shaffer was in the original
Saturday Night Live band,
played in Gilda Radner's
Broadway show and toured
with John Belushi and Dan
Ackroyd as The Blues
Brothers.

For Late Night, he had a
concept for “a hip late-night
kind of band.”

“I was thinking about a
particular bar in Toronto,
which was really the most
happening kind of jam set-
ting-in scene, and there
weren't too many black
people in Toronto, but they
were there,” Shaffer said.

“This to me, as a Canadian
man, this was funky, you
know?”

Fats Domino, Jerry Lee

miered July 25.

“It was a wonderful ex
perience for me,” said Shaf-
fer, who plays a little Ham
mond Organ behind the
greats.

“Initially, you know, I was
looking to them for ideas —
what are we going to do?
What are we going to play,
guys? And they were looking
to me and saying, ‘What do
you want?

“What do I want? You guys
— The Genius, The Fat Man
and The Killer — you tell
me.”

They chose greatest hits,
ineluding Domino's Blue
berry Hill, Charles’ Hit the
Road, Jack and Lewis’ Great
Balls of Fire, and they play
together. in a session-ending
jam that's something to hear.

New ‘Langham-aid' tape

Local musician Drew Birkett has come up with a
small-scale West Kootenay version of the recent spate of
“aid” concerts to help the financially-strapped Langham
Cultural Centre in Kaslo.

Birkett and other Kootenay musicians have pooled
their talents to produce Save the Langham tapes,
featuring-performances from 10 years worth of Cabaret
Nights at the Langham Theatre.

Along with musician and sound engineer George
McCuaig, Birkett brought together talent such as the
group Swing Shift (Tom and Ruth Tompson and Pat
Feeney) with their upbeat harmonies and sizzling piano
playing
PiGongs such as Billie Holliday’s God Bless the Child and
House of Blue Lights recall the musical eras of the 1990s
and 1940s.

The tapes also feature ballads by comedian, story-
telle and singer/guitarist John Rogers and Charles
Wilton’s composition Born Again Teenager, recorded by
the rock group Batteries Not Included.

McCuaig and Birkett also perform their own musical
compositions.

Pianist Claude Raza plays out one side of the tape
and Wilton's The Langham Ballad completes the second
side for 60 minutes of music.

The recording was made at the Langham Theatre,
Offerman Studios, the Kaslo Legion and the Blackhole.

All proceeds from the sale of the tapes, priced at $10,
will go to the Save the Langham campaign.

The tapes will be I at the
of August at the Langham Centre or at Cornucopia food
store in Kaslo.

The Langham Cultural Centre is trying to raise
money to pay off a $25,000 mortgage on the 93-year-old
heritage building.

The centre's directors say they can reduce the
centre's monthly expenses and keep the centre open by
paying off the mortgage.

More than $20,000 has been raised so far in the
fund-raising campaign.

COSBY BOOK ON
FATHERHOOD A
GLUT OF QUIPS

By KIRK LaPOINTE
Canadian Press

Somewhere between mugging for the television
cameras, slurping Coca-Cola, gobbling Jell-O and hanging
around the house as the doting daddy and hubby we all
know him tobe, Bill Cosby found a few minutes to jot
down some bon mots — probably one Sunday, between 4
a.m. and 5 a.m

Fatherhood (Doubleday, $19.96) isn’t simply another
parenting book with an uncertain market and a so-so
chance of success. From the moment North America’s
favorite TV father put pen to paper, he stood about as
much chance of failure as would Wayne Gretzky on a
breakaway with an empty net.

Translation: Fatherhood could be priced like
platinum and read like rough notes, but there would still
be a lineup when the local book store announced its
arrival

And if the few who don't regularly watch The Cosby
Show believe his program is long on shtick and short on
steak, then his slim book — 178 pages, large type, loads of
blank space — and its chateaubriand cost is further
evidence you can go a long way with little effort when
you're a big TV star.

LOTS OF QUIPS
The book contains a glut of quips, lots of charm, but
little worth-while advice — unless you consider &
recommendation that you shower offspring with love to
be a child-care innovation.

Curiously, neither Cosby's loyal fans nor those
unschooled in his humor are well served by the book.

Cosby devotees have heard much of the book before
on his comedy records, his stand-up routine or his TV
show. Unless your want a transcript of what is often very
physical humor, Fatherhood may not be value for money.

As for newcomers to his work, if you weren't aware
that the put-downs of his children are simply designed to
undermine what he says are their many innocent deceits,
you might come away from the book thinking he hates
kids’ guts.

FATHERHOOD TOUR

Cosby loosely guides the reader through the travails
of fatherhood from the time children enter the home to

BILL COSBY
clever and breezy

“Poets have said the reason to have children is to
give yourself immortality; and I must admit I did ask God
to give me a son because I wanted someone to carry on
the family name,” Cosy writes.

“Well, God did just that and I now confess that there
have been times when Ive just told my son not to reveal
who he is.”

An underlying theme is that parents and children
grow together and learn from one another.

“The seven of us will always stumble and bumble
from time to time, but we do have the kind of mutual
trust that I wish the United Nations had. And, with
breaks for a little hollering, we smile a lot.”

NOTHING WRONG

It's not that there is anything wrong with
Fatherhood; it’s that there isn't much right with it as
there could be

Much of the writing is clever and breezy, but it
coasts and floats and rarely expresses itself directly. You
get the impression that it was assembled in bits and
pieces while Cosby was waiting in airports or on hold on
the telephone.

Still, if you're willing to accept that the literate, most
popular comedian of our time is merely a casual observer,
not a social scientist or philosopher, you will find the few
hours it takes to absorb Fatherhood more fulfilling than a

Serial killers
can be fitted
into profiles

TORONTO (CP) — The increasing number of human
predators who make a career of stalking and killing
vietims oun eres he Personality profiles and hunted
down, a U.S. special agent told a convention of North
\American prosecutors Tuesday. "

Serial killers “ean be gregarious, friendly and out-
going,” said John Douglas of the Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation. “There is no specific look to a serial killer.”
Douglas and his colleagues developed profiles based
‘on scores of interviews with some of the most brutal
killers, including the notorious U.S. multiple murderers
‘Theodore Bundy and David Berkowitz, also known as Son

of Sam.
; “The method and manner in which a crime is carried
‘out relates directly to the personality type of the
suspect,” the agent told the conference, which has drawn
about 1,200 Canadian and U.S. prosecutors.
Douglas said his unit can also tell whether the career
of a killer is early or advanced and whether he operates
on a “home turf.”
They share a need to keep a serapbook or diary of
their murders and they are nearly always police buffs, he
said. “They can't be cops, so they go for the next best
thing.”

RETURNS TO LOOK

He described a Michigan case in which clues from the
body and murder scene revealed a killer would have felt
compelled to return to check for the body — but not
alone.
“He would have gone on a ruse with his girlfriend
and done something like stopped the car to urinate and
check on the state of the victim.”
Agents came up with a suspect, and — after inter-
viewing his girlfriend who confirmed that's exactly what
happened — arrested the man in Tampa, Fla.
In another case, Douglas developed a profile of a
killer who had used a 20-kilogram rock to crush the head
of a young cheerleader. Local police said they had given a
[20 fob ieee oh redeemaree adalah

had passed. When they interrogated the man again, with
ithe rock used to kill the girl placed on a neat by desk, the
man broke out in a sweat and confessed.
Profiles and other methods can be applied to other
serious criminals, Douglas said.

‘CATCH THEM

“Rather than sitting baek and reacting after each
rape or ing, we can develop techni: to go out and
catch them.
“If a killer wants you, I don't care what you do — he
will get you,” said Douglas, who showed gruesome slides
of dismembered and mutilated women at the scene of
their deaths.
“He's a predator. He will look around a room like this
‘and see one particular victim to focus on. Like a lion,
when he decides to go after one weak animal, he will focus
on it and do anything to get that animal.” J
Natural victims are hitchhikers, women who are too
friendly or go out alone to secluded places and children
who think they are streetwise.
“We have to realize there are just some bad people in
this world,” said Douglas. “No matter what therapies you
give them, you can throw the book away.”

Chernoff
passes
away

Jacob William (Jack) Cher-
noff of Robson passed away
today at age 73. Mr. Chernoff
was born on July 29, 1913 at
Verigin, Sask., and came to
British Columbia in the
1930s, settling in the Okana-

in.

He married Florence Gret-
chen at Nelson on April 12,
1935. They came to the
Kootenays in 1951, living for
a short time at Thrums
before moving to Robson in
1955.

Mr. Chernoff worked as a
carpenter all his life. He
worked on the Brilliant Dam
as well as several other dams
in B.C.

He was a member of the
United Brotherhood of Car-
penters and Joiners.

Mr. Chernoff was a past
member of the Vernon

Choir. He enjoyed painting.

He is survived by his wife
Florence of Robson;, four
sons, Jack, Harry and
Lawrence, all of Castlegar,
and Dave of Cranbrook; and
five grandchildren.

Funeral services begin 7
p-m. Thursday at the Castle-
gar Funeral Chapel and con-
tinue Friday from 10 a.m. — 1
p.m. Cremation will follow.

Should friends desire, con-
tributions may be made to
either the Cancer Fund, Box
3292, Castlegar, or to the
Canadian Diabetic Associ-
ation, Box 184, Trail.

Funeral arrangements are
under the direction of the
Castlegar Funeral Chapel.

Police are also investi-
gating the possibility that the
killer may have stalked Ali-
son at two major track and
field events in June in
Toronto and Oshawa.

“Maybe 1,000 people saw

jack him, but they don’t know it,”

why police need infor-
mation.”

Marks said 60 police offi-
cers, including three homi-
cide teams, have been as-
signed to follow up scores of
tips phoned in to two 24-hour
hotlines set up by police.

“We got some pretty good
information,” Marks said,
adding the case is getting top
priority.

A search force which num.
bered 400 at its peak Monday
has been unable to find any
sign of her despite using dogs

ment. Police divers have
made fruitless searches of
nearby lakes.

“We're hoping to find a

said.

Hillier's parents have re-

throughout the search and
often go into the bush them-

The girl's great-grand-
