Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Christopher Hampton's adap- tation of Choderlos de Laclos’ novel, continues at the Am- bassadors, with Eleanor Da- vid and Jonathan Hyde in the leading roles. Les Meserables, the pop opera inspired by the Victor Hugo novel, remains, after Phantom, London's hottest musical ticket. And still going strong is Me and My Girl at the Adelphi. Other favorites include two Lloyd webber mainstays, Cats (New London) and Star- light Express (Apollo Vic- toria); the Tim Rice-ABBA Chess (Prince Edward), due on Broadway next year; and New York's own glitzy trans- plant, 42nd Street (Drury Lane). Several newer New York imports — Rupert Holmes’ The Mystery of Edwin Drood (Savoy) and Nunsense (For. tune) — opened to scathing reviews, but are selling tic- kets through the summer.

The popularity of Star Trek, created by Gene Rod- denberry, has increased en. ormously since it made its debut in 1966. Besides the original TV series, there have been four Star Trek movies, with a fifth in the planning stage, a Saturday morning cartoon series, many books and enough toys and gadgets to please the most avid Trekkie. “Gene's vision of the future is the closest to mine I have seen,” Burton says. “It was the first time I saw myself in the future. It was the first time I saw minor. ities in the future. It said we had settled our differences and made it.” Star Trek: The Next Gen- eration apparently will not stray far from the concept of the original show. 25 SHOWS The series will have 24 one-hour shows after a two- hour kickoff the weekend of Oct. 3-4. It will have a cast of earthlings plus a sprinkling of off-world types. Visit the Scenic Slocan Valley! Homestyle Cooking LOIS’ SOUP AND SANDWICH SHOP inthe SLOCAN MOTEL in downtown Slocan rn R CONDITIONED Easy Access, No Stoirs The stories will be the little morality plays that the original fans found so ap- pealing. The concept of the future continues to be one in which greed, prejudice and aggression have been sub- dued. In the new show, set in the 24th century, 85 years after the end of the first show, even the Klingons have join- ed the World Federation of Planets. “We have the interaction of the cast, the ship and the philosophical questions — who are we, where are we going?” says Burton. “We have different char- acters and intense person- alities. Our great plus is that the technique of science fic- tion special effects has im- proved so much in the past 20 years.” New toys include an eye- popping new Enterprise light years ahead of the first in computer technology, state- of-the-art special effects from Lucasfilm's Industrial Light Magic, and a multilevel plan- et surface set that can be transformed to look like any number of worlds. Burton plays Lt. (j.g.) Geordi La Forge, who is blind but sees by means of a pros- thetic device worn over his eyes. “I see the whole spectrum, x-rays, sound waves, light waves, but I can mentally adjust to see only what I want,” he explains. “Wearing the device causes me pain, so it’s a trade-off. He's closest to Lt. Cmdr. Data, an android play- ed by Brent Spiner. His brain and my eyes form a rela- tionship.” British actor Patrick Ste- wart plays the captain and Jonathan Frakes is the ex. ecutive officer. $30 Early Bird $25 Special PLEASED Hanks cuts loose in Dragnet film LOS ANGELES (AP) — Tom Hanks says Dragnet gave him a chance to “ab- solutely cut loose” after two films in which he had to compete with lowbrow gags and special effects. “It was going back to working on my comic chops, which I haven't been able to do for a long, long time,” said Hanks, who stars with Dan Aykroyd in the hit movie based on the TV series. “Bachelor Party was noth- ing more than a rock 'n’ roll sex comedy,” Hanks said re- cently. The Money Pit was essentially a special-effects, wogga-wogga kind of movie. “So when this came along, it was like, ‘Look, Dan's going to be doing this thing, so that means I'm really going to be able to make up this guy and absolutely cut loose.’ ” Cable 10 TV SHAW CABLE TV 10 July 16,17 and 19 5:30 p.m. (Thurs) 9 a.m. (Fri) 1 p.m. (Sun) — Robin Hood —.~ The children of Woodland Park school in Castlegar present their ver- sion of Robin Hood. 6:45 p.m. (Thurs) 10:15 a.m. (Fri) 2:15 p.m. (Sun) — Star Wars — This program talks about the American Star Wars Defence System.

Employment in the private 4 sector could grow by 12 per cent between 1981 and 1996 if technical innovation is prop- erly managed, the report says. However, the report adds, business employment will grow by only three per cent in that period if domestic firms continue to fall behind their internaitonal competi- tors in innovation. LAG BEHIND Among medium and large manufacturers, for instance, Canada “lags at least three years behind Japan in the factory use of microelectronic equipment,” Maxwell noted.

In the more than two weeks since Wilson presented his plans for reforms of the income tax system there has only been scattered criticism and most of it has focused not on the first parcel of income tax cuts that have been announced but on previous Tory tax increases and future possible sales tax increases, especially on food. Yet, those criticisms, despite opposition efforts, have failed so far to ignite any wide or apparently sustainable wave of tax reform criticism. And unless the opposition can muster come support this summer, it appears that Wilson will be able, with minimal political pain, to have his initial parcel of income tax reforms in place for next year. CUTS TAXES It will be difficult for critics to stir up public opposition to a $2-billion-a-year cut in personal income taxes — even if it is a cut from tax increases that would have occurred rather than a real cut in income taxes that are being paid this year — or a $470-million-a-year increase in corporate income taxes. And the political damage to the government of previous tax increases, which have boosted the take from personal income taxes by two thirds and from sales taxes by more than 100 per cent, has already been done. That, however, leaves the still-ticking political time JUNK MAIL IMPORTANT VEHICLE MONTREAL (CP) — What many Canadians consider to be junk mail is actually a minute sample of one of the most important advertising vehicles in the country. In fact, a detailed market study by Sue Skully, vice-president of McLeod Young Weir, suggests that more money will be spent in direct marketing this year than in advertising in either daily newspapers or television. Advertisers will spend $1.74 billion on print-based direct marketing such as the flyers, catalogues and coupons Canadians get in their mail boxes, says Skully. That would place direct marketing slightly ahead of daily newspapers, which she expects will take in $1.65 billion in advertising revenue, and ahead of television, which she estimates will get $1.19 billion. “Direct marketing is the fastest growing segment of advertising,” Skully said. “It’s taking market share away from both television and newspapers.” TAKES MANY FORMS Direct marketing can take many forms, using telephone, print or broadcast media, and experts say this diversity makes it hard to measure. The common element is that the consumer is required to make a specific response, such as presenting a coupon to a retailer, mailing a card for more information or dialing a toll-free number. Scully says four billion coupons were distributed in Canada last year, up 25 per cent over 1983. Arnold Acton, research manager for the Canadian Daily bomb of sales tax changes but the earlier of the opposition that the government would delay its planned expansion of the sales tax until after the next election now appears well founded. And that delay also raises the suspicion that the government may push up its election timetable, possible to this fall. DUCKS QUESTIONS At present, and at least until the end of this year, the government can duck questions on its sales tax reform plans, saying it is still studying the three proposals which were vaguely outlined in the June 18 tax reform package. Eventually the government will have to let Canadians know exactly which of those three proposals will be implemented. These proposals are a federal-pro- vincial national sales tax, an all-encompassing federal goods and services sales tax or a more limited tax on some but not all goods and services. And that is when the government could run into widespread opposition from business — the group that so far appears to have accepted the first phase of tax reform. DOWNTOWN SPOKANE SUNTREE 8 INN $29.90 $34.90 AT PAR FREE JACUZZI S. 123 Post (509) 838-8504 disputes the view that newspapers have been displaced as the leading medium, saying there is no reliable way to estimate the impact of direct marketing. “The data is so diverse that they're just guessing at a lot of it,” he said. ‘We know that direct mail is certainly coming up, there's no doubt about that. But we don't think it’s anywhere near beating dailies,” said Acton. The growth of direct marketing will continue because of improvement in computer techniques, said Elizabeth Highstead. research and development in Canada, they also use more advanced technology. “Canadian managers are alarmingly complacent and Wnt Managers blamed for poor innovation record old-fashioned about technol- ogy.” Maxwell said. LESS TRAINING In addition, Maxwell said, Canada “is on the slow track”! when it comes to managing people. For example, Cana- dian workers were given an average of two hours a year for in-plant training in the mid-1980s, while their Jap- anes counterparts received between 100 and 200 hours.
