Here’s the Meut Way
to Get Ahead...

in defence of
ex-Beatle

By MARK BASTIEN
Canadian Press

TORONTO — John Lennon finally has a chance
to defend himself.

Just a few months after a controversial book
was released depicting the slain ex-Beatle as an
anorexic, drug-made bisexual, the pop singer tells his
own story in a new movie, Imagine: John Lennon.

The documentary, which opened across North
America this week, was put together from some 200
hours of footage given to the film-makers by
Lennon's wife, Yoko Ono.

\-It-includes recording session footage and songs
never seen or heard publicly before?”

In the film, Lennon, through cleverly chosen
sound clips, narrates his life story — from his
childhood to a few days before he was gunned down
at age 40 outside his New York apartment by Mark
David Chapman on Dec. 8, 1980.

Some people have said the singer was a
misunderstood musical prophet for peace, while
others — like Albert Goldman, who wrote the
scathing The Lives of John Lennon — maintain he
was an opportunistic fraud who craved attention.

But although Lennon led one of the best-docu
mented lives of our time, he remains an enigma.

Was he a narcissistic drug-user who became too
big for the Beatles, the music phenomenon of the

century? Or was he a dreamy poet stuck in a
literal-minded world?

Or was he an ordinary man with extraordinary
talent who betame too famous too quickly and then
felt he had to live up to his outrageous image?

SHOW CONTRASTS

The 100-minute film has no clear answers.

Instead, producer David Wolper and writer-dir
ector Andrew Solt. depict Lennon as a moody,
passionate man who seemed different to eveyrone
who knew him.

Aunt Mimi, who raised Lennon, describes him as
a sweet, serious boy who “sang himself to sleep
every night.” But his first wife, Cynthia, says when
she met him he was “rough, ready and not my type at
all.”

Lennon himself seems baffled by his image.

He remembers the Beatles as cocky upstarts —
“We haven't really got an act, we just do what we
do,” he tells a British reporter in 1963 — who were at
first amused by their fame, then frightened by it.

The film uses seldom-seen footage of the Fab
Four's early club dates in Hamburg, West Germany,
its first visit to the United States and its tour
of Japan to show how uncontrollable the group's
surge to stardom became.

And it has some surprises, including an
interview with a Ku Klux Klan member from
Memphis, Tenn., made after Lennon's famous,
widely denounced claim the Beatles had become
“more popular than Jesus.”

Although the film-makers scrutinize Ono's hold
on Lennon — and his complete adoration of her —
they still blame the group's split.on Paul McCartney.
Little is said about George Harrison and Ringo
Starr.

The film will probably help people remember
Lennon as a talented, complex man rather than the
monster some people claim he became.

SEEKS NOMINATION

Campbell resigns

VANCOUVER (CP) — Kim Campbell, a dissident
Social Credit backbencher, is quitting provincial politics
after just two years to seek the (Progressive Con.
servative nomination in the federal riding of Vancouver
Centre.

But the 41-year-old lawyer denied Tuesday that
dissatisfaction with her role in the Socia) Credit
government and the leadership of Premier Bill Vander
Zalm is behind her jump to federal politics.

“T'm not running in this election because of my
feelings about the provincial scene,” Campbell said in an
interview after she was given a rousing welcome at the
Vi i ters Tuesday

V Centre
afternoon.

“That's a very stupid thing to do. You don’t run for
one (political) arena because you're unhappy with
another.”

Earlier in the day, Vander Zalm had broken the
news of Campbell’s move before she had a chance to
make her own announcement.

Campbell said she was annoyed that the premier
“couldn't bring himself to say no,” when he was talking
to reporters. She said there was several people she had
wanted to advise personally of her decision.
Vancouver Centre has been held by Treasury

Board President Pat Carny since 1980 when she ended
an 18-year Liberal hold on the seat.
CARNEY PULLS OUT

Carney announced just before the election was
called for Nov. 21 that she would not run again because
of severe arthritis. The Tories have been searching
since then for a candidate.

No date has been set for the nomination meeting.

Campbell, who represents Vancouver Point Grey
for the Socreds, said one of the reasons she decided to
try federal plitics in the “campaign by the Liberals and
the NDP based on fear and misinformation that I think
ultimately will be to the detriment of British Columbia.”

“T'd like to be part of the campaign that refutes
that.”

RIDING RIVALS

The Liberals are to nominate their candidate
tonight. The NDP has alrady nominated party president
Johanna den Hertog, who lost to Carney in 1984.

NDP provincial organizer Ron Johnson said
Campbell's decision to run is inconsequential.

“I don't have any doubt that Johanna will be
elected in Vancouver Centre,” said Johnson, who is also
den Hertog’s husband.

King, Then and Now,” Edwards
said in an interview at his home in
Mobile.

King is 64, Edwards, a great
grandfather of four, will be 65
in November. Neither plans to retire
soon.

“He stays polished,” Edwards said.

Edwards, now the singer's road
manager, began as his valet.

“I was driving a taxi cab for a
studio. This guy that owned the cab
line owned a couple of recording
companies. He had me go to the hotel

vand take King to his lawyer's office to
sign the papers to start recording.”

Edwards parked his cab that day
and left with King.

“From that date to this one, I've
been with him.”

“That was from the '50s until the
early part of the '60s,” Edwards said.
“King’s fortunes changed when he
guest-starred with Eric Clapton,
Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin at
Fillmore West (in San Francisco).
When he made the record, The Thrill

“The crowd now is 75 to 80 per

more black,” Edwards said.

Edwards moved to Mobile 25 years

PLAYED EVERY NIGHT

around the

trade organization has launched a
satirical new assault on the Con-
servative government's trade deal
with the United States.

A 24-page color cartoon booklet
published by the Pro-Canada Net.
work — an organization of gropus
hoping to stop free trade — appeared
in 16 newspapers Tuesday. It|is to
appear in 11 others in the next two
weeks.

It features the bizarre and biting
drawings of Aislin — editorial car.
toonist Terry Mosher.

There's a green-faced Prime Min.
ister Brian Mulroney dripping with
acid rain. Former and current in-
ternational trade ministers are. also
lampooned — Pat Carney as a Kate
Smith look-alike belting out God
Bless America, and a baronial John
Crosbie selling free trade with a
cattle prod.

The Pro-Canada Network says the
booklet, written in the form of a con-
versation between two Canadians
talking about the deal, will reach
more than 2.2 million households.

“It's designed to promote kitchen-
table conversation,” said Tony
Clarke of the Pro-Canada Network.

He said the organization hopes the
booklet will encourage Canadians to
demand a televised debate on free
trade during the federal election
campaign.

Clarke said the Network also
wants to persuade Canadians to yote

against the Progressive Conserva-
tives on Nov. 21.

Clarke was joined at a news con-
ference by Mosher, TV personality
Adrienne Clarkson, writer Rick
Salutin — who produced the text of
the booklet — and Marjorie Cohen of
the National Action Committee on
the Status of Women.

WE NEED YOUR
VOTE.

On Oct.

Clarkson said she helped raise the
booklet’s $600,000-plus in production
and distribution costs “because this
is not just an issue decided in this
election — it will decide the future of
what Canada will become.”
