Assante in new film By BOB THOMAS LOS ANGELES (AP) — Actor Armand Assante thinks there’s “a glut of that don't like ” and for that reason he becomes involved in small, meaningful films instead of the big-buck spectaculars. With his brooding eyes and classic profile — he's half. Italian, half-Irish — Assante made strong impressions in such films as: Private Ben. jamin, as Goldie Hawn's French lover; Unfaithfully Yours, as a romantic violinist — Mon. - and I The Jury as tough guy Mike Hammer Instead of aiming for a career as a leading man, Assante has chosen to return to the stage or appear in specialized films such as the current Belizaire the Cajun. The release from Skouras Pictures, written and directed by Glen Pitre, concerns the persecution of the Cajun population of Louisiana more than a cen tury ago. Assante plays an intinerant faith healer who becomes involved in the cross firm between the French settlers and their Anglo Saxon neighbors. “It’s hard for an actor to find scripts that deal with human relations,” said Assante. “Sure, it would be easy to pick up the heavy money new learning how to speak Cajun, which he describes as a com bination of, “French, south ern American, with some Santo Domingan; there is a heavy Caribbean influence.” He and the other actors proved to be too authentic The entire soundtrack had to be redubbed to make it more intelligible for the general American audience. Armand Assante isn't totally altruistic as an actor. He has starred in such tele vision potboilers as, Rage of Angels and the upcoming Stranger in My Bed. “I also started out in soap op@s, How to Survive a Marriage and The Doctors,” he confessed. “Soap operas are valuable for learning how to relax in front of the camera. As a means to an end, soaps are fine. To survive you must become mannered. a parody of what acting really is.” Next Yisjl Assante plans to return to the theatre in “Td rather do a challenging play than the films and tele vision material that is offered to me,” the actor said. “Most of them are completely un original, formulas that have been done and done to death. RUBBER STAMPS Made to Order France apologizes to Lange WELLINGTON (Reuter) — Prime Minister David Lange said today that an apology from France over the sinking of the Greenpeace protest ship Rainbow War- rior was a victory for New Zealand. As two French secret ser- vice agents jailed for taking part in the sabotage oper. ation were flown to a Pacific atoll administered by Paris, Lange said France's expres- sion of regret was unpre- cedented in modern inter- national relations. “I got a letter of apology from the French Prime Mini- ster — that is a win,” he told reporters. The apology was delivered to the New Sealand Embassy in Paris soon after the two agents, Maj. Alain Mafart and Capt. Dominique Prieur, left by plane from Auckland. Signed by French Premier Jacques Chirac, the three paragraph note said in part: “I wish to convey to you today the apology of the government of the French Republic for the events which took place in Auckland on July 10, 1985.” THEY'RE OFF . . You loungsters popular Church picnic Sunday ot enjoy wheelbarrow race during Castlegar Evangelical Free Park. Syringa Creek Provincial River floods farms By The Canadian Press A swollen North Sask- atchewan River sounded like Niagara Falls as it swamped Saskatchewan farmland Tuesday, said farmer Jack Responding to suggestions Link from reporters that the apol- ogy was less than fulsome, Lange said: “I don't know of a more grovelling apology. An apology is an apology. If you tart it up you diminish it.” The New Zealand leader said relations between Well ington and Paris should now be “normalized” but he noted his country has continuing objections to France's nuc lear testing program in the South Pacific. SANK SHIP French agents, acting on orders from Paris, mined and sank the Greenpeace ship, killing a staff photographer on that date to stop a planned anti-nuclear protest at France's Mururoa Atoll test site. In Paris, the Defence Min- istry said the two agents, who spent more than a year in New Zealand prisons, had arrived at the small French territory of Wallis and had then taken off for Hao atoll in French Polynesia. Heavy rains in Alberta that caused severe flooding there sent the river rushing eastward into north-central Saskatchewan where hun- dreds of hectares of farmland disappeared under the mur- ky deluge. “It was like Niagara Falls,” said Link, who said he could hear the water roaring 500 metres away. “You could hear the water roar .. . like a lion.” Link estimated damage to his farm, 30 kilometres north west of Saskatoon, at $55,00, but he still felt for- tunate. “It could be worse,” he said. “At least there are no lives lost.” “It's just one of those things you can't do anything about,” said farmhand Edgar Harder as he hurried to move cattle and machinery to higher ground near North Battleford, about 140 kilo, metres northwest of Saska- toon. Residents do well at Two Castlegar residents played well at the recent Kootenay Gold Rush See tional bridge competition at the Uplander Hotel in Ros sland. Ron Perrier teamed up with Gerry Marshall of Cal gary to win the Masters bridge Perrier also teamed with three other competitors to tie for second in the Swiss Teams category. Don Ellison of Rossland, Wayne Weaver of Genelle and Don Richards of Ros- sland were on the winning team. Almost 200 people, in “The crop is lost this year.” North Battleford was the first major Saskatchewan centre to feel the river's fury earlier this week. About 25 of 181 patients at the Battle- fords Regional Care Centre were evacuated after a flood alert was issued. But the water never came close enough to threaten the building and the danger seems to have passed, RCMP said. Just east of the commun- ity, Pat Shabbitz and her husband John built dikes almost three metres high to protect their crop of pota- toes, corn and cucumbers. “It's not worth our while to go any higher,” she said. “If it comes up more than 12 feet, we can't keep the water out.” Damage will be written off as a loss because flood in- surance isn't available, she added. In Alberta, residents in Barrhead County also con- tinued their battle against rising waters. One of the hardest hit areas was along the Pembina and Paddle Rivers, which flow into the North Sask- atchewan just north of Barr- “We've got an 11-foot wall of water coming down the Saskatchewan emergency option as two river ferries were closed. Dirt and sandbag dikes «were being built around the city, 140 kilometres north- east of Saskatoon, in antici- pation of a peaking river sometime today. The Saskatchewan Water Corp. said about 30 homes in what is known as the East and West Flats of Prince Albert are in jeopardy, while another 1,500 could be flood- ed if water goes over the dike. Cocaine seized OTTAWA (CP) — Canada Customs believe they have broken the delivery system of a major drug trafficking organization by seizing an estimated $200,000 worth of high-quality cocaine at the St. Lawrence River com- munity of Rockport, Ont. Although the half kilo con- fiscated Monday night is a relatively small amount Bill McKissock, narcoties chief at Canada Customs headquar- ters, said Tuesday the bust is significant because those in- volved have ties to major drug-trafficking organi zations in Canada. The cocaine was seized about 6:30 p.m. after a man docked a 16-foot rented cruise boat at Rockport, about 25 kilometres west of Brockville. SAFEWAY OPEN SUNDAYS 10 A.M.-5 P.M.
