They have been featured at three world in in 1967, travelling to parts of Sask this July. The trip includes a concert perfor mance which will be the choir’s con. tribution to festivities marking 90 years since the arrival of the Doukhobors in Canada. The anniversary theme will be the main feature of the program at this year’s Heritage Day in Veregin, Sask., an annual event sponsored by the National Doukhobor Heritage Village. En route to Veregin, the choir will make a day’s stopover in Regina, where it will be hosted by the Poltava Dancers — a well-known performing group of the Association of the United Ukrainian- Canadians. While in the provincial capital,’ the Youth Choir will be featured at a special evening concert on July 7. The choir will make its major ap- pearance at the Veregin Heritage Day on July 9, and will make a brief stopover in Saskatoon the following day for a visit with that city’s Doukhobors. The return journey will also include a stopover in Edmonton Doukhobor choirs are world famous for their unique style of a cap- pella harmony, singing without stage direction, musical notation, or in- strumental accompaniment Doukhobor choirs have performed for Spokane in 1974, and, most recently at Expo 86 in Vancouver. Those are just some of the highlights in the 20-year career of this talented group, which is made up of young people in their teens and early 20s — with an average annual turnover of 10 to 15 new members, a news release says. The choir is kept up to professional standards by the talented efforts of Paul G. Samsonoff, recognized .as the foremost Doukhobor choral director, with an illustrious career spanning half a cen. tury, the release says. In addition to tours and concerts, the Kootenay Youth Choir has per formed at numerous charity events and is an active component in the ongoing cultural activity of the Doukhobor Community, and especially its largest organization, the USCC. Most recen. tly the choir featured prominently in the 42nd annual USCC Union of Youth Festival at Castlegar For the youthful members of the choir, this prairie tour marks another memorable milestone in their con- tinued cultural activity, the centerpiece of which is their love of singing and their sincere desire for friendship and peace among all peoples of the world, the release says.

His third, School Daze, was Columbia Picture’s biggest money-maker last year, grossing $14.5 million Lee’s first film was Joe’s Bed-Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads in 1982. It was his thesis work at New York University Film School, and won the student Oscar from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The latest movie is Do the Right Thing, which goes into release today with rave reviews from Cannes where it lost the festival prize to the American film sex, lies and videotape. Do the Right Thing takes place during a sweltering summer in and around Sal’s Famous Pizza, run by an Italian (Danny*Aiello) in a lower-middle-class neigh: borhood in the predominantly black Bedford Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. Tensions of family, race, friendship and love run high RACISM GHASTLY CRIME The theme for the movie's title comes from a speech made by the late black activist Malcolm X in 1964: ‘*Racism is a human problem and a crime that is absolutely so ghastly that a person who is fighting racism is well within his rights to fight against it by any means necessary until it is eliminated."’ Using his student Oscar as a credential, Lee had tried to make a movie about bicycle messengers but ran into the barriers of financing and distribution. But Lee hada vision and the tenacity to follow it musical satire of fraternity life at a black campus. But the $6.5-million. movie got caught in the crossfire of corporate politics. Puttnam was ousted as Columbia's boss and new leadership gave the movie lit- tle promotion. CHILLY RECEPTION With a chilly reception from Columbia, he took his third film to P Pictures. The reli hip was pleasant until the studio wanted ‘‘a more Walt Disneyesque typé of We-Are-the-World ending,"’ Lee said. ‘1 would rather had shot my own self first.”” Universal gave him a go-ahead. Born in Atlanta, Lee was raised in Brooklyn by a jazz musician father and a mother who taught art. He attended Morehouse College and then NYU. Like most lovers of the cinema, he’s critical of the quality of Hollywood movies. \ “It’s the same old, tired, Hollywood formulaic school of film-making,"’ he said. ‘‘They have no respect for the audience's intelligence. In the first 10 minutes you can always tell where the film is going, every step of the way, I just don’t understand it, **In my film, there are no heroes. We don’t put any white hats or black hats On anybody.We’re always two steps of the audience, so they can’t anticipate what’s going to happen.”’ Lee’s movies have centred on aspects of black culture, but he sees himself making many kinds of films. “*The first two were predominately black films because that’s where they took place. Do the Right Thing is about racism and New York City. Because of the many ethnic groups that live there, it could not be only a black cast.”” Lee has appeared in his three theatrical films, but not necessarily because of of his own choosing. “1 knew that Steven Spielberg wasn’t calling me, George Lucas wasn’t calling my house, or any of the “If | was to become a film-maker, I studios,"’ he said would have to do it myself."” She’s Gotta Have It grossed $8 million for Island Pictures, impressing David tnam, then head of Columbia Pictures. He commissioned School Daze, a about? +] really do not enjoy acting,” he said. ‘I do not consider myself an actor. By being in my films, it makes it easier to get them made. When I negotiate with a studio, there are three things they ask: “What does it cost?’ and ‘Spike, are you init?” “Lf I’m notin it, | would not be able to play hard in the game of negotiation.”” “What's it Towne Squere Regular Blackout +100 Kiwanis Lic. 1656 Tuesday, July 11, 1989 Bonanza Blackout +1000 © Advance Tickets Not Required * Warm Up Games at 5:50 p.m. FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL 364-0933 or 364-5650 WE ARE A FULL SERVICE TRAVEL AGENCY SPOKANE SHOWS Sept. 9/'89 “ANYTHING GOES” Starring: Mitzi Gaynor Oct. 3/'89 “ME & MY GIRL” Overnight Spokane SHERATON SENIORS DISCOUNT RENO TOURS * Oct. 1-14 AT THE HILTON * Oct. 28-Nov. 4 AT THE SANDS REGENCY * Nov. 4-11 AT THE RIVERBOAT DIRECT FLIGHTS SPOKANE RENO NOW AVAILABLE!

The Bundesbank, West Germany’s central bank, raised two key interest rates by half a percentage point in that country’s ongoing preoccupation with inflation. Several other European countries followed suit soon after. The Toronto Stock Exchange com- posite 300 index fell 23.11 points to close at 3,743.46 in moderate trading. In New York the damage was even worse. The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials plunged 46.47 points — its biggest point loss in three months — to close at 2,458.27. “It was a combination of several factors,” said Joe Ismail of Moss Lawson.

Boomers blasted in new play MONTREAL (CP) — You've met the Thirtysomethings, with their con- dominiums, self-absorption and Woodstock souvenir scrapbooks. Now meet the younger generation: the Twentynothings. No jobs. No identity. No future That’s how 26-year-old playwright Albert Nerenberg sums up his generation in his new rock comedy, Boomers! The musical features a hard-luck cast of characters in their teens and 20s who congregate inthe local welfare of- fice. There’s a pregnant teenager, a person with AIDS, some skinheads and assorted unemployed. But don’t blame unstable market forces, evil industrialists or — worse — the youth themselves for apathy.

Congratulations and Lotsa Lovel From Jack Katherine, Sis villains, the ones who have today’s kids bound in shackles and chains. ““Boomers,”” Nerenberg says with a shudder. At first glance, those nostalgia- loving, former establishment-bashing hippies may not seem an oppressive bunch. But look again. Through sheer numbers and finan- cial clout, Nerenberg argues, they have clogged the workforce and the air- waves, leaving only crumbs for today’s youth. Tie-dyed clothing, ‘‘elassic rock’? radio, Motown and jingles and scented record albums — 1980s culture often seems like a rehash of the Flower Power years, minus the social con- sciousness. GRIMMER PORTRAIT In Boomers! Nerenberg sends up yuppie nostalgia and contrasts it to a grimmer portrait of his’ own generation. A cast of self-centred yuppies — in- cluding a radio deejay specializing in hits from the 1960s and 1970s and a workaholic weather lady — manipulate the kids with bribes of jobs. The approach is humorous, but Nerenberg swears he’s quite seriousd. “We've decided to stop blaming our- selves for the fact that we don’t have a generation,”’ he says.
