The Most Miserable Meal Ever Served at a Family Gathering’ was a Thanksgiving dinner which I hosted last, year. Without benefit of glasses, I thought 1.50 was the weight and not the price of the turkey per pound and cooked a 17-pound turkey in, a 325-degrée oven for 25 minutes, then served it toa mother-in-law who observed, “You're not pretty enough to cook this rotten.” The Worst Idea for Traveling With a Dog Who is Trained to a White Shag Carpet goes to my husband, who devised a plastic arrangement of a bush, a couple of daisies _ and a few fake leaves. The dog ate the arrangement and wet on my husband's foot. é Back to Mr. Pile, he listed the Least Accurately Labeled Museum Exhibit ever. It was a Roman sestertius coin, minted between A.D. 195 and A.D. 138. It was impressive until a nine-year-old kid pointed out it was really a plastic token given away by a soft drink firm. . I feel better already. Forest fertilization talk has tentative audience Anyone who professes to -have a proven formula for growing merchantable sized timber 80 years before rain and sunlight can is bound to have a captive audience. Bruce Devitt, chief for- ester of Pacific Logging of Vancouver Island, found at- tentive listeners at the April Castlegar Silviculture for the Interior of B.C. Conference where he reported fertilizers can add 30 to 40 cubic feet of wood per acre of forest. That's the growth in- crease, up to 35 per cent, his company expects for its 300,000 acre forestry oper- ation following two appli- cations of Forest Urea, a 46 per cent nitrogen-based fer- tilizer. “Our objective,” says Devitt, “is to produce a 14-inch diameter tree in 50 years. The key is knowing our land, our trees and to ex- ecute the job well to meet our objective.” . The cost of the treat- ment limits the number of applications and the target trees to those 15 to 20 years or to thinned stands 25 to 30 years old with low density stands over 35 last on the priority list. Pacific Logging began fertilizing 17 years ago. Ambrosia does a ‘One Eighty’ One Eighty, Ambrosia’s second offering on Warner Bros. Records is as distinct a musical change in direction as its title suggests. A group renowned for its lush, layered pop Burlei; vocals; guitars, toned a lean, economical and motivating new sound that at once encompasses and trans- cends their former musical persona. “One Eighty is exactly that’ enthuses David Pack, “a new day for Ambrosia. a one hundred-and-eighty de- gree shift.” “We also finished the album in January, 1980,"" interjects Burleigh Orummond, reveal- ing yet another meaning to this intriguing LP's title. A group who originally joined forces in and around Los Angeles’ South Bay in 1970, Ambrosia came to the attention of classical music engineer Gordon Parry a scant three months after their formation. It was Perry who introduced the band to then-conductor_of the L.A. Philharmonic, Zubin Mehta. Mehta was so impressed with Ambrosia‘s creative potential that he featured the fledgling group in his 1971 All Amer- ican Dream Concert. Shortly afterwards, the band separated for a short time as each member under- took individual projects, further developing the broad- based eclecticism that was later to become an Ambrosia producer Freddie Piro who promptly signed them to 20th Century Records. Their self- titled debut LP yielded two hit singles: ‘Holdin’ On To Yester- day’ and ‘Nice, Nice, Very Nice,’ the latter lyrically co-written with author Kurt Vonnegut Jr. from a passage in his landmark novel, Cat's One Eighty is a breathtak- ing step into a new decade for both Ambrosia and fans of well-conceived, passionately performed music. From the blistering hard edge of ‘Rock ‘N’ A Hard Place,’ ‘No Big Only Woman’ to the synth- rock power of ‘Ready’ and the evocative sweep of ‘Big- gest Part Of Me’ (one of the album's two ballads) Ambro- sia has laid undisputed claim to the musical attention of a whole new generation of listeners. p.m. i Among the exhibitors are Olwen MacGregor, post graduate student, who has citing warps on the looms at as other works, she is show- ing her fetching poncho which was woven on the 60” - 8 harness loom, with weft of her own’ homespun white wool.
