Jackson hopes
to stay young

LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Pop star Michael Jackson is
buying a hyperbaric oxygen
chamber in hopes it will keep
him young, a spokesman said,
but medical experts warn the
device can be dangerous.

Jackson, 28, is having his
own hyperbaric chamber
made, his personal manager,
Frank Dileo, said Tuesday

Pictures of Jackson in a
chamber appeared this
month in the National En
quirer, but Dileo said he did
not know where the singer
had been photographed.

Calgary clerk sings
way to talent win

By GWEN DAMBROFSKY
WINNIPEG (CP) — Cor
elie Keller has worked at an
agriculture station, as a sec
retary and a sales clerk, but
after winning the national
country music talent contest
she may finally be on the way
to a fulltime career as a
country music singer.

The 22-year-old Calgarian
beat out 11 competitors from
across Canada to win the

“contest, sponsored by the
Academy of Country Music
Entertainment and held as
part of the five-day Country
Music Week convention.

“I really thought I blew it,”
said the excited, slim blonde
after the nearly three-hour
competition was over. “I
didn’t think I was going to
win.

Dressed in a flashy, se
quinned blouse, Keller im

rich, powerful voice and a

polished stage presence in
performing two numbers,
one a country standard and
the other a song written by a
friend of Keller's.

The judges, five people
representing radio stations,
music clubs and booking
agencies, admitted it was a
close contest. Impressive
performances were also
turned in by Winnipeg singer
Lisa Yerex and Regina
singer-guitarist Ray Bras
seur.

Keller's prize includes
$3,000 toward a recording
session in a studio of her
choice and inclusion in a
special concert featuring a
number of entertainers nom.
inated for this year's Country
Music Awards.

In previous years, the con
test has been a significant
springboard in launching the
careers of a few winners.

NEW HOST OF SHOW

Deborah Lauren, the vic.
tor two years ago, parlayed
the experience into a job as
host of Country West, a
nationally televised CBC

country music show. Lauren

also served as host at Wed
nesday night's contest.

Keller, who was born in
Rockgien, Sask., has been
singing professionally since
she was 15. While holding
down a day job as a sales
clerk at a western-wear
clothing store in Calgary,
she has been working at
night as a singer with the
Whiskey River Band in Cal
gary's country bars.

The Country Music Week
talent show is open to pro
fessionals as long as they
have not released a commer
cial recording. Each com
petitor must have won a reg

ional contest before making it
to the finals.

“It was a chance to meet
other people in the recording
business and learn from
them,” Keller said of her
reasons for entering. “The
winners are brought into the
limelight and given a
chance.”

As for her future plans,
Keller said she is trying to
get together her own band.

“I'd like to go solo, but I
haven't really done the
groundwork yet. But I
wanted to record eventually,
and this is really going to
help.”

Wine still off shelves

By CasNews Staff
and News Services
Wine drinkers who have been scouting around for South
African wines will find them hard to find — even in
— after threats that two bottles were
manager of the local Government Liquor

store received a directive last
Thursday to pull its South African wines from the shelves.

A Victoria newspaper and television station had
received letters Thursday that declared: “We poisoned two
bottles of South African wine.”

The letters were signed “Direct Action” — the same
name as @ group that claimed responsibility for the 1982
bombing of a B.C. Hydro substation near Parksville on
Vancouver Island, and the bombing of Litton Systems
Canada Ltd. in Toronto in which 10 people were injured.

Police and the Liquor Distribution Branch were
immediately notified and South African liquor was removed
from liquor store shelves.

Brown says he hasn't received any word as to when the
liquor ean be put back on the shelves. A few empty shelves
bear signs saying the products are temporarily out of stock.

The B.C. government says new South African wines will
likely be back on the shelves within a week.

The local liquor store normally carries about a dozen
different brands of South African liquor, including wine,
sherry and port.

Brown says the move to stop buying South African
wines in opposition to that country's apartheid policies
hasn't affected sales at the Castlegar store — unlike Lower
Mainland outlets where he says there has been more
opposition to apartheid.

Veitch says provincially, sales of South African wines have
imereased by more than 30 per cent.

Government figures show 155,758 litres of red and
white South African wine were sold during the 12 months
ending in June this year. That was a 33-per-cent increase
from 116,294 litres the previous year.

Babaeff, who said he has been trying

NANAIMO (CP) — The international president of the

Jack Munro, president of the Canadian union, has said

About two-thirds of the 30,000 B.C. woodworkers have

“[ean't say Igive it (dissolution) my wholehearted
