Newsletter
on King

By JERRY HARKAVY
BANGOR, ME. (AP) — Some Stephen King fans recall
Castle Rock as the town in which a crippled schoolteacher
discovered his psychic powers in The Dead Zone, while to
others it's where a rapid dog trapped a mother and child in a

car in Cujo.

The fictitious Castle Rock, set in the Bridgton-Norway
area of western Maine, has also been the setting for several

of King’s shorter works.

So it was no surprise that Stephanie Leonard, who has
spent the past six years as King’s secretary, chose Castle
Rock as the title of her monthly publication devoted to news
of the best-selling horror writer.

The name, she says,

“has a lot of identification with

Steve, and besides, I like the sound of it.”

Castle Rock, which made its debut in January, is a
newsletter, six to 12 pages long, crammed with information
about King’s novels, stories, movie adaptations and other

projects.
Written in a breezy, conversational tone — King is
referred to throughout as S.K. — it carries reviews, trivia,

contests, cartoons,

and reader contri

“The NEC hopes that all
citizens of the West Koot-
enay will join us in this cele-
bration,” adds director Luc-

Castlegar Arts Council
annual general meeting

LOS ANGELES (AP) — John Travolta, whostrutted
to stardom with Saturday Night Fever and then took a
tumble with a few movie flops, hopes his interviewing
techniques will pay off with his latest project.

He plays the part of a writer for Rolling Stone
magazine in the movie Perfect. And to prepare for the
role, he did an interview with fellow actor Sylvester
Stallone. He gave it to Aaron Latham, who had written
the script. He told the actor the story was good and to
write some more.

Travolta continued on his new work processor — a
gift from Latham and director James Bridges — with
stories on Latham, Bridges, co-star Jamie Lee Curtis,
Debra Winger, Columbia Pictures president Guy
McIlwaine and others. All were printed last month in
Rolling Stone. Travolta’s story on Jann Wenner, the
magazine's editor and publisher, appeared in Interview
magazine.

“What made jt easier was the fact that for 10 years I
have been the interviewee watching the interviewer,”
Travolta said. “I've seen the highest of ethics to the
lowest, as you would find in any profession.”

Perfect is based on a series of Rolling Stone articles
by Latham about the sweaty world of California's health
clubs. Latham wrote the script with Bridges. The movie,
Travolta said, is not merely about body building.

“It's also about the conflict of a reporter's personal
ideals as opposed to his paper's ethics,” he said. As Adam
Lawrence, Travolta uses his charm to learn secrets about
an aerobics teacher (Curtis) and her friends. He writes a
sharp-edged article, then submits a blander version after
an attack of conscience. Rolling Stone prints its own
tough version without his knowledge.

“I developed a great deal of sympathy for the

interviewer,” the 31-year-old actor said.
“It seems to me the interviewer is faced with a triple
ethic: his own as a journalist; those of his editor and-or
publisher; the attitude of the public. Often those three
are in conflict. Now I have more understanding of the
pressures that an interviewer faces in striving to
maintain his own integrity.”

Travolta in new film

Travolta played both interviewee and interviewer
during a session at the Bel-Air Hotel, where he had come
from his Santa Barbara spread. He is inclined to become
the questioner — as he chides Curtis for doing in the
movie — and has to be returned to answering. “But I'm
really interested,” he protested.

Does he like interviews?

“That depends on how interesting the interviewer
is,” he said.

“If I can get on topies that are new, that makes it
more worthwhile. If we're in areas that I have covered
before, it can be hard. I try to vary my answers so I can
keep up my own interest.”

JOINED WORKSHOP

Travolta was born in Englewood, N.J., the youngest
of six children. He took tap dancing lessons from Frank
Kelly, Gene Kelly's brother, and at 12 joined the Actor's
Studio workshop.

He was the class clown in high school and dropped
out when he was 16 to concentrate on acting. He did TV
commercials and appeared in several off-Broadway
productions. He first came to national attention as the
“sweathog” Vinnie Barbarino in TV's Welcome Back
Kotter.

His first movie was Devil's Rain. But it was Saturday
Night Fever that really launched him as a star. He
starred in Grease and Urban Cowboy and played in such
misses as Moment by Moment and Two of a Kind.

Last month, he took time out from hyping Perfect to
join in a Church of Scientology protest over a $39 million
fraud judgment against the group and its leader. Travolta
has been a member of the organization for 10 years.

He has had a steady romance with Marilu Henner,
who plays one of the health club fanatics in Perfect. Now
for an old reliable interviewer's question: Does he plan to
get married?

I don't know,” he replied thoughtfully. “It really
varies with me. At times I feel tired of not having a
commitment. Of course I do have a commitment in
theory, but marriage is as solid a commitment as you can

get. Maybe I'll do it.”

Christian
band plays
rock 'n’ roll

NASHVILLE, TENN. (AP) — Petra plays high-octane
music with a heavy metal sound using the beat of a
smorgasbord of 23 drums.

Though their concerts, enhanced by electronic gear for
digital sequencing and programming, have the appearance
of a rock 'n’ roll extravaganza, there's also the spirit of a
revival.

Between the raging guitars and driving drums are
tranquil offerings of Christian witness.

The five-member group is a 13-year-old contemporary
Christian rock band, and it's cultivating a loyal following of
teenagers lured by the heavy metal music and the prayerful
promise from “a higher order.”

Petra is drawing concert crowds of about 4,500
teenagers this year. The programs also bring in a few
parents, who are fearful that some rock ‘n’ roll acts are
influencing their children “to wear leather and put on
chains,” said lead guit: Bob Hartman

And it's alright that Christian messages are sent by way
of rock because music was created for God's pleasure, said
lead singer Greg X. Volz. “God's not nervous over how loud
he said in an interview

Petra plays a rock ‘n’ roll beat that some fundamental.
ists have branded “devil music.” In fact, Hartman said, in the
band’s early years “some churches prayed against us.”

However, Volz, a father of four, said: “It's not the style
of music that is good or evil. It is the message and spirit.”

The Nashville-based Petra plays songs such as For
Annie, about preventing teenage suicide, and Hollow Eyes,
about world hunger.

At 105 decibels, their loud music is actually about 10
decibels softer than most rock ‘n’ roll concerts.

“The emphasis is on the clarity of the lyrics,” said Volz

“Music for this generation is the No. 1 thing that
motivates them. We're trying to take the music the Lord has
given and put a positive impact on the kids.”

Callaghan —
little big man

TORONTO (CP) — The 'g oak door that is opened in
greeting by Morley Callaghan — little old man and
literary giant — somehow makes him seem even smaller.

There is a slight shuffle as he leads the way into a
big. airy, well-worn living room for a talk about his new
book, his life as viewed in his 83rd year, and why it is that
he “never hit the jackpot.”

He's thrilled, and mystified, that the Russians love
his work and keep on publishing it, charmed that the
Chinese call him “a bunch of flowers,” and he chuckles
over an exchange with author Pierre Burton who told
him, “Morley, you are the most successful failure in
Canada.”

Although he still writes, he doesn’t read much any
more, A lifelong passion for reading in bed —
them all, you see, Balzac, Dickens, Tolstoy . ,
him with a pain in the neck.

“Instead, I watch television a lot,” he says, pointing
to a dark, high-ceilinged den across the broad hallway,
filled with framed pictures and momentoes of a
glamorous life. It also includes a fireplace, a high-backed
leather chair and a TV. It seems a poor reward for a
lifetime devoted to literature but, as with most
everything these days, he's philosophical.

TV LIKE VALIUM

“Luse TV the way some people use Valium,” he says.
“It puts me to sleep, you see. I nap a lot in my chair.”

Aside from this neck business the wit is sharp, the
voice resonant and the recall total as he reminisces about

, his early days as the “boy with the golden spoon.”

Callaghan is a living contradiction of the Canadian
cliche that to become famous at home one must first
become famous abroad. He did just that but still was
often taken for granted at home while hailed abroad, even
being nominated for a Nobel prize in literature.

“I guess I'm probably famous enough here now,” he
says philosophically. “That's the way life is. I don’t know
why it was the way it was.”

He already had something of a name as a writer,
having published his first novel by the time he graduated
from law school in 1928, when he got married and headed
straight for Paris. Those were exciting, tangy days
mixing with the likes of macho Ernest Hemingway, the
handsome, alcoholic F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce and
many others.

WERE MILLSTONES

“In a sense, to tell you the truth, Hemingway and
Fitzgerald became like a millstone around my neck. The
academics sort of pinned us together, you see, but I
became almost like a peripheral being.”

Even the dustjacket of his latest novel, OUr Lady of
the Snows published’ by Macmillan, mentions his friend
ship with the two American literary figures. They were
fast friends and learned from each other, Callaghan says,
hone he sometimes was embarrassed by Fitzgerald's

and ions with ingway cooled after
Callaghan floored him in a boxing match, an event that
became something of a sensation among gossips of the
day

As stated on the cover, the new novel was suggested
by an earlier Callaghan story, The Enchanted Pimp, and
there has been some critical carping that it is simply a
reworking of an old story. But it's such a good story,
peopled by those bright, crisp enchanting Callaghan
characters, that it is hard to imagine anyone would feel
cheated by this new incarnation.

It concerns an elegant, blonde goddess, a Hungarian
who is a whore.

WORKS FROM HOTEL

She operates out of a Toronto hotel that is divided so
that its lounges cater to crooks and gangsters but also
judges and Rosedale socialities.

Callaghan still lives in exclusive Rosedale, alone in a
big. three-storey house now distinguished from its
well-manicured neighbors by the cracked walkway and
the thrusting dandelions taking over the ill-kept lawn.

The new book is a Toronto story that couldn't be set
in Halifax or Rome or anywhere else, he says. He made
up the hotel by combining features of several places he
knows. “I was very cagey about that. I didn't want
anyone to be able to identify it

“I sort of like the notion that it becomes my hotel,
sort of Morley’s Place. I can bring in all kinds of people —
criminals, whores, whatever. It's a great device for my
purposes.”

Callaghan thinks he had two great attributes as a
writer. First, he always believed what he was writing
was good and would stand the test of time — a faith
sustained by the fact he is still widely republished and
translated. And second, his ability to mix with all people,
to know them and to get inside the characters he creates,
be they priests or callgirls.

“A really good book is a mystery story and my idea
of a mystery story is my own book,” he says with a
chuckle. “The worst ones are the stories that are still a
mystery when the book is finished. They call that

ambiguity, you see. It's become very fashionable. It
leaves the reader to figure it out; the author obviously
didn’t know.”
