New TV series hard to swallow LOS ANGELES (CP) — When the past bothers you or doesn't make sense, just dis- miss it as “back story.” That's the approach of Michael Jacobs, producers of the new NBC comedy My Two Dads, about a 12-year old girl living with two men, either of whom could be her father. How could this happen? Well, the “back story” goes like this: During their school years, LEGION BRANCH 170 DANCE SATURDAY WESTERN | FLYERS Guests must be signed in Proper dress after 9 p.m. You saw him at Expo Doors open P.

One year, when they were on a summer break from college, they both fell in love with Marcy Brad- ford. Unbeknownst to each other, they both had sex with Bradford. She loved them both but couldn't decide which one to choose so she told them to go away. Later, Bradford had a daughter. But she didn’t tell the men that one of them had to be the father and biological tests were “indeterminate.” The woman never became ‘omantically involved with anyone else during the next 11 years of raising the child. & Chicken Cordon Bleu * STEAKS * SEAFOOD ‘+ POULTRY * CAESAR SALAD SUNDAY FEATURE Prime Rib/Yorkshire Pudding SPM.

BOOK REVIEW What the book portrays is a real person, not a comic-book hero. ACTS LIKE ‘JERK’ Members of Hansen's road crew describe him as a task- master who was easily ticked off and could behave like a “jerk” when things didn't go his predetermined way. Tensions were high and much of the tour. d for Updated edition slammed LONDON (AP) — Tradi- tionalists are hopping mad over a new edition of The Tale of Peter-Rabbit which replaces Beatrix’ Potter's in- ventive prose with everyday Hansen's own story, while revealing, still has an air of distance. The man who mastered the art of living in a fish- bowl during more than two years on the road talks a folksy, down-home game, but never lets the reader become too intimate. Hansen is acutely aware of his audience and his image. Childhood shenanigans are sanitized and told with a message in mind. Like many teenagers, Hansen thought little of drinking and driving, but in the book he makes.a point of saying it’s a stupid thing to do. An avid hunter, Hansen also feels the need to include some justification for that enthusiasm, explaining how his family hunted for the meat and challenge — not the thrill of the kill. There are some funny moments and some painful ones as Hansen recalls some of the more humiliating experiences he endured as a new paraplegic. Hansen's ingenuity in dealing with his disability is also interesting. ADAPTS TO WORLD Using an all-terrain vehicle to go hunting illustrates one of the many ways Hansen was determined to adapt to the world — or force it to adapt to him. What emerges is a captivating portait of a stubborn young man, sometimes infuriating and volatile, but bright, courageous and sensitive. He eventually accomplishes a lot by channelling his anger. The depth of Hansen's determination is hinted at when Cancer claims Laugh- ENGLEWOOD. Fila. (AP) — Dan Rowan, who teamed with Dick Martin in the ir- reverent 1960s hit TV com. edy Laugh-In, died of cancer Tuesday at age 65. Rowan died at 7:54 a.m. at this home on Manasota Key, Fi with his wife, Joanna, and daughter, Mary, at his bedside, said Valerie Doug- las, a family spokesman. The comedian, also sur- vived by a son, Patrick, had learned nine months ago of his illness. “We knew he had lymphatic cancer but we didn’t expect this so quickly,” Douglas said. The Emmy-winning Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In was one of TV's classics, an over- night .sensation that) made popular such phrases as “Sock it to me” and “You bet In star your sweet bippy” and help- ed create a raft of new stars, including Goldie Hawn and Lily Tomlin. Martin played the vague, inept lecher while Rowan was the straight man. “I'm the authority, settled, steady, sober, reasonable, square, indignant at the life he heads,” Rowan said. FAST PACE After its opening, an- nounced by Gary Owens “from beautiful downtown Burbank,” there were black- outs, sketches and one-liners that gave the show a light- ing-fast é Regular gags included the Flying Fickle Finger of Fate Award; Laugh-In Looks at the News and graffiti written on the body of the bikini- clad Hawn. language and her delicate drawings with photographs of puppets. “Beatrix Potter must be turning in her grave,” said Bill Lathma, administrator of the author's cottage in north- west England, a national toric site. “These new books are per- fectly horrid.” Ladybird Books, a British publisher of children’s books, said it had updated and simplified the 1901 classic to appeal to a wider audience. In the new version, when Peter sneaks into Mr. Mc- Gregor’s garden he just hops — his feet don't go “lip- pity-lippity.” At a climactic moment in the original, Potter, who died in 1943, wrote: “Peter rushed into the toolshed and jumped into a watering can. It would have been a beautiful thing to hide in, if it had not had so much water in it.” BANAL BUNNY The Ladybird version reads: “When he got inside the shed, Peter hid in a watering can. Mr. McGregor couldn't find him anywhere. But the reerine can had water in it . The story has been changed, too. Readers of the new edition will find no men- tion of the tragi¢ demise of Peter’s father, baked in a rabbit pie by Mrs. McGregor. It was because of what happened to his father that Peter had been warned not to go into Mr. McGregor’s gar- den. In both versions, the naughty bunny disobeys his mother and narrowly escapes the clutches of Mr. Mc- Gregor, who chases him with a garden rake. But the Ladybird edition leaves out Peter’s encounters with the lady mouse who couldn't talk because she had a large pea in her mouth and with the white cat who was too busy eyeing’the goldfish to tell him the’ way to the garden gate.
