Like most television series, Willis has been doing interviews for Sunset, BLake . Edwards's Hollywood period piece in which Tom Mix (Willis) and Wyatt Earp (James Garner) pursue a murder » scandal. In recent times, such interviews have been rare. : “My wife has helped me in dealing with the matter of ~ publicity,” he says. “It just sells more magazines to say I'm the Bad Boy of Hollywood than to say that I'm not doing anything this week, or I'm not throwing any wild parties.” “By and large, the basic principle was that if you put my picture on the cover of a magazine, people were going to buy it. I sell magazines. I had to realize that if you took all those people out of that industry, next week a whole new crowd would come in, because somebody's got to do that job.” sence ARREARS TRS GREWMAN ACRES Castlegar, B.C.

Predicting long-term trends in reader interest is impossible, industry spokes men say. Even making de. cisions on authors and titles for next year's publishing lists comes down to ‘relying on editors’ experience and savvy.

These are the non-spécialized , books aimed at the general market. An estimated $467.5 mill ion worth of books were im. ported, although not all of them were necessarily sold through book stores, Statis ties Canada says. Canadian publishers had their best sales season in a long time last fall when “they probably published more books than they ever have before,” says Judy Brunsek, a spokesman for McClelland and Stewart, one of the country’s best-known pub- lishing houses. But how do you judge what people will want to read a year from now? HARD TO DO “You can try to anticipate readers’ wants, but it’s very hard to do specific market research,” Brunsek said. “We goon past history and experience within publishing. Most Canadian publishers can't afford to do extensive market research. It’s very expensive stuff and Canadian publishers don't make a lot of money. “In a lot of ways, it’s just The Canadian Centre for PUblishing Studies is being set up at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby. Gib- son, a member of the board working on the program, says undergraduate courses will start this September. It’s hoped a full graduate pro- gram can be offered in the fall of 1989. Gibson recently asked members of the Association of Canadian Publishers how many of them thought they knew enough about the peo- | ple who were buying their books, “and only one raised his hand.” A shortage of information on publishing in Canada is part of the reason — some- thing the centre will try to correct.

Members of the West Kootenay Women's Institute hel the Robson branch celebrate the organizations 75th birthday. Women's Institute celebrates 75 years The National anthems of Canada and the United States opened the West Kootenay Women’s Institute fe in Robson Wed: . Ninety women from Nelson, Fruitvale, Salmo, Kaslo, Robson, New Denver, Slocan, Balfour, Edgewood, Castlegar and Cedar Point and Colville in Washington state gathered to help Robson WI celebrate its 75th anniversary and hear of the work of the different branches of the organization. Marion Jenner, president of the Robson group, greeted the guests and expressed her pleasure at the good turn out. Bunny Charters of the Castlegar Heritage Advisory Committee gave the address of welcome and congratu- lated the Robson WI. Ivy Salekin gave the response to Mrs. Charters's welcome. Jessie Grainger, provincial board representative from Edgewood, presented a scroll from the provincial office to Mrs. Jenner in honor of the Robson WI's many years of service. Many of those present wore costumes of the time the Robson group started, 1913. High collars, long sleeves, floor-length gowns, and flower and feather bedecked hats were the order of the day. Several ladies even sported high-buttoned shoes. At the close of the morning’s business Mrs. Grainger spoke of a number of ways the money sent to provincial office by B.C. women's institutes is used. Recently purchased for the Queen Alexandra Solarium in Victoria was a $3,000 Camcorder to be used to make a lasting record of patient treatments and progress. When the child goes home or to some other treatment centre this video recording can go with him and the treatment procedures that have proven to be successful can be continued in the same manner. Purchased for the Vancouver Children's Hospital was an agrometer which measures platelets in the blood. This machine cost $3,900. The Vancouver Children's Hospital has added a new wing for the care of problem children. Since some of these children leave their family home and may roam the streets for days before arriving at the hospital, they are very often in need of clothing. They welcome donations a 7. Many wore costumes of the time of the founding of the Robson WI's. and Mrs. Grainger urged the ladies to collect and send clean used, or new clothing to the hospital. Lunch was catered by the Robson Evening Group. During the break everyone had time to look at the many craft displays, buy/raffle tickets, and view the Robson table of WI artifacts of bygone days collected by the Robson ladies and arranged in amost interesting display. The Audrey Maxwell Dancers then changed everyone’s mindspace to the 1950s when they put on a very enjoyable dance review of that decade. Following lunch, election of new officers for the coming year was conducted and branch reports read. Daphne Angus of Slocan Park was elected president of the West Kootenay District WI; Eva Shock of Slocan Park, vice-president; Ilene Bridge of Fruitvale, secre- tary; while directors were Freda McPhee of Fruitvale, Marion Jenner of Robson and Joan Duck of Slocan. Throughout the day draws were made for prizes donated by local merchants and for 26 pairs of slippers knitted by Emily Scott. Prizes were given for best costume and the chiffon cake wifmers received ribbons, as did the winners of the crafts made from kitchen gadgets. The raffle conducted by Robson for an overnight stay and $50 gift certificate at Ainsworth Hot Springs was won by Phyllis Phipps. Mrs. Phipps also took third in the cake competition. Ethel Ewasiuk of Robson won second in the Robson draw. The cakes were all auctioned off and went for $4 or $5 each. Ann Barcley of Slocan expressed thanks to Robson for hosting the conference and letting everyone share in their celebration. The amount of hard work and organization was evident in all the arrangements that had to be made to have everything run as smoothly as it did.” Each person attending received a “goody bag” of useful items to take home plus a small jar of homemade jam or jelly. Before leaving for home the guests shared a beautifully decorated anniversary cake done in yellow and green — the Women's Institute colors. The next district gathering will be June 15 in Colville for the Hands Across the Border picnic.
