got big ratings. The show
made its debut last week.

show due this fall called Car-

long association with Carson
began through

“Dick and I were next-door
heighbors in an apartment
house in Philadelphia,” he
said. “Philadelphia was a big

the show’s longevity and pop-
ularity.”

He does not think he’s in
Carson's shadow.

“They call me a second
banana and I like that,” he
said. “I get to sit next to
Johnny Carson, one of the

world, and I get to go
head-to-head with him.

“Tm a supporting player

Ryan full of memories

NASHVILLE, TENN.
(AP) — Tourists walk the
stage where Hank Williams
performed Your Cheatin’
Heart, where Roy Acuff sang
his immortal Wabash Can-
nonball and where Minnie
Pearl squealed thousands of
times: “Howwww-deel!!”
The Ryan Auditorium, a
rustic red-brick building
bulging with memories, was

once the home of the Grand,

Ole Opry. From 1943 to 1974,
fans sat on wooden pews
listening to such country
music greats as Williams,
Acuff, Pearl, Patsy Cline,
Marty Robbins and Loretta

Lynn.

Today, about 150,000 tour-
ists a year pay $1 to walk
over the sagging wooden
floor of the Ryman to catch a
whiff of a bygone time.

“The Ryman rep

58-year-old country music
radio show, now originates
from the spacious $15-million
auditorium at the Opryland
U.S.A. entertainment park
25 kilometres northeast of

major part of the develop:
ment of country music,” says
Hal Durham, Opry general
manager since 1974. “Most of
the stars of country’ music
when the Opry was in the
Ryman were part of the
Opry. And there definitely is
an association that links
those performers with the
building.”

The Ryman was built in
the early 1890s for $100,000
and seated 3,000. The current
Opry House seats 4,400. The
Ryman was not air-condition-
ed, and resourceful vendors
did a swift business selling
old funeral parlor-type card-
board hand fans for 50 cents
to the crowds of people who
lined up outside waiting to
get in.

During the summer, Opry
officials kept a nurse on duty
to handle faintings, which
sometimes numbered a dozen
on a single Saturday night.
And still scrawled on a wall
in the mens room is: “I:love
Patsy Cline.”

“There are two genera-
tions of people who saw the
Opry at the Ryman,” says
Durham. “A lot of those folks
want to bring their children
back to the Ryman and say to
them: ‘I sat in this bench and
saw Kitty Wells and Hank
Snow way back when.’ ”

USED FOR MOVIES

The Ryman is occasiopially
used for a movie or television
taping. Porter Wagoner,
Shelly West and David Friz-
zell sang at the Ryman dur-
ing scenes from the 1982
Clint Eastwood movie,
Honky Tonk Man.

The auditorium also was

Wizard's
Palace

9 to 48 6 to 10:30

used for scenes in the Sissy
Spacek movie, Coal Miner's
Daughter, which was based
on Lynn's autobiography.

In the mid-1970s, Opry
officials contemplated razing
the historic structure. But
offended Opry stars and
community sentiment pre-
vailed, and the Ryman was
spared.

A part of the landmark
building has added a touch of
nostalgia to the sparkling
new Opry House. A hunk of
oak flooring — two metres in
diameter — was transplanted
from the Ryman stage to the
new home of the stell guitars,
yodels and rhinestone suits.

During the final Opry per-
formance at the Ryman,
Minnie Pearl said: “I had to
leave. It's killing me. I know
it’s time to go, but every time
I think of so many friends
who walked on that stage
who aren't here now — Cow-
boy Copas, Patsy Cline, Hank
Williams, Rod Brasfield — 1
just feel like they're little
ghosts down here.”

“IV's not irrelevant that Big Brother banished history

On Moyers’s journey backwards and forwards, he
uses film, some of it never broadest before, to chronicle
“the only century to ever take moving pictures of itself.”

BECOMES COMMON.

It has become a common sight on television, whether
on CBS or the Public Broadcasting Service, to see Moyers
strolling with common folk, listening to common folk and
learning from common folk. It's a rare gift, indeed, to
move easily among presidents and ordinary people, and
never talk up or down to either.

Later in the series, Moyers will examine historical
figures such as Franklin Roosevelt and Adolf Hitler,
together, in The Democrat and the Dictator. There also
will be documentaries on cars, the weapons of war and
propaganda.

But the journey began, quite unconventionally, with
a more personal piéce. In Marshall, Texas; Moyers
returned to the town in eastern Texas where he lived
until he left for college 30 years ago.

However, this was much more than a biographical
scrapbook. Marshall, in its earlier small-town ways, its
racial segregation and its current face of change, com-
promise and modern convenience, répresents the

ion and social of America in

the 1900s.

“So many of us now live in urban areas, we forget
that at the turn of the century America was a nation of
small towns,” Moyers said. He called the Marshall of the
1980s “a new town perched on the memory of one that's
gone.”

SETS UP CONGRESS

While Moyers was growing up in Marshall, he never
knew James Farmer, the founder of the Congress of
Racial Equality, who was raised at the same time on the
other side of the tracks.

“That's the paradox, growing up well-churched and
well-taught and not knowing the reality of how other
people lived,” Moyers says.

A Walk Through the 20th Century was originally to
run on CBS Cable, but The Democrat and the Dictator
was the only episode shown before the service died
deeply in debt.

To the rescue came Chevron, which had financed
Moyers’s landmark Creativity series. The oil company
provided $2 million to get the 19-part series produced and
on the air.

A Walk Through the 20th Century is an immensely
valuable viewing experience for adults, but perhaps even
more so for children, who have little first-hand
perspective of modern history.

Getting the guided tour from Moyers is about the
best introduction TV can offer.

something that will happen
by itself. All of us who love
the Lord Jesus will have to
work for unity and to pray
for unity. The evil one is an-
xious to keep us apart, but
the Lord Jesus prays that We
might be one (John 17:20-28).

And if our dear Lord longs
for us to be one how can we
do otherwise?

As a result, concerned
Christians all around the
world will be gathering in
special ecumenical services
to pray for Christian unity.

Here in Castlegar we also
care a great deal about
Christian unity. The clergy of
the ministerial agreed to hold
a special service for unity on
Sunday, Feb. 5 at 8 p.m. at
St. David's Anglican Church
(located on Columbia Ave.
beside the Turbo Gas Sta-
tion).

At this service we will not
be having one long sermon
given by one individual. In-
stead three, short five-
minute talks will be given.

Our speakers will be three
local clergymen: Harvey Self
(Presbyterian), Michael Gui-
nan (Roman Catholic) and Ira
Johnson (Church of God).
Hopefully, other clergy and
