Fraser is currently receiving criti- cal acclaim for her newest book My Father's House, a story of incest and healing, which is said to be auto- biographical. Fraser waited until the death of her father before publishing this work, which has earned notice from a number of women's groups across Canada. Perhaps best known for her novel of childhood awakenings, Pandora, Fraser has been experimenting with the novel form in recent years. A former writer for Chatelaine mag. azine, she has published a layered novel of society called The Candy Factory (1975), a modern fairy tale entitled The Casual Affair (1978), an historical novel called The Emporer's Virgin (1980), and a period novel about two youths during the Third Reich called Berlin Solstice (1986). Fraser appears as part of the Canadian Writers’ Series which is sponsored by the Canada Council and Selkirk College. The public is invited and there is no admission charge. Sitcom writer angry NEW YORK (AP) The creator and writer of CBS's sitcom Designing Women is steamed up about a super- market tabloid report that she told one of the show's stars, Delta Burke, to lose weight or take a hike. “The only reason I concern myself with it ... (is) we got a number of negative letters about it,” Linda Bloodworth-Thomason said in a re- cent telephone interview. Burke, one of the series’ four female stars, plays Suzanne Sugar. baker, a primping, wise-cracking for. mer beauty queen. Bloodworth-Thomason said Burke did gain weight during the summer and was the one who was concerned about it. NEW FACES . . . CBC’s Daybreak program returns with some new faes (back row) Cam sythe.

(AP) — Vanna White says although her fledgling acting career may be on the line with her lead role in a new television movie, she'll take good ratings over good reviews. White, the hostess and letter. turner on the popular Wheel of Fortune game show, said in TV Guide she is taking a risk with her role as themythical Venus in NBC's Goddess of Love. “It's like my life is on the line, certainly my acting career,” she said. “If I do an OK job, I might get another job.

Co-hosts Forsythe and Martin have worked together before. They co-hosted Northwest Morning in 1986 and 1987, a show that originated from Prince Rupert. As well, Forsythe hosted Almanac from CBC Vancouver last summer when the regular host took holidays and filled in occasionally from Sharples last season in the old Day: break program that broadcast from Vancouver. Martin hosted Prince Rupert's afternoon show, North Country Fare, in 1985 before teaming up with Forsythe on Northwest Morning.

One looks to events just past, the other to the immediate future. The first letter is from Kari Hartman, a Castlegar Rotary exchange student to Mexico and son of Sandy and Jaakko Hartman of Castlegar. Kari left Castlegar for Cozumel in southern Mexico in mid-August for a year's study in that country and to act as one of Rotary International's young ambassadors for peace and world understand. ing. He was anticipating adventure but not in the almost immediate and enormous proportions that he got it. He writes to the Castlegar Rotary Club as follows: “The most exciting thing that has happened to me since arriving in Cozumel is, of course, Hurricane Gilbert. We were planning to go to Merida, (capital of the state of Quintana Roo, if the hurricane was really coming to Cozumel. Merida is located on the other side of the Yucatan peninsula and is a safer place to be in a hurricane. Actually, as we saw later, some damage was done in Merida as well, but not nearly as much as in Cozumel. Anyway, we didn’t get the news in time to fly out on a private plane as had been planned, so we had a look at the ferry. However, it was overloaded and the waves were really high, so we went to stay at the home of a friend. It had fewer windows. “The hurricane was really exciting, and very frightening at the same time. As you know, I was in Cozumel when the hurricane hit. By the time it hit us it was so big it couldn't miss us and the eye of the hurricane was something like 40 km across. Huge. Anyway, the eye passed over Cozumel and we thought that it was gone since there had been constant winds for the previous six or seven hours. Three-quarters of an hour later the winds started up again really strongly, so we knew we had been in the eye — not very encouraging! In the two hours prior to and following the eye, the walls of the house we were staying in were shaken by the wind and water was coming in through the shutters. The windows don't have glass, only shutters and insect nets but it was still very surprising that water came in because the shutters seal tightly enough so that, normally, neither wind nor rain can come through. The winds continued for eight hours after the eye, which had lasted from about 6:15 -7 a.m., stopped for two hours and started again, though the winds never got quite as strong as they did when the eye went over us. “The winds finally stopped for good around midnight, though light winds continued for days after the hurricane. At one point, during the storm we had to put closet doors against some of the glass windows in the house (two sliding doors leading to the backyard from the bedrooms) because the wind had torn off the boards we had nailed on the outside. “After the hurricane, Isaac (owner of the house we stayed in) and I walked across town to get his Jeep. It had a flat tire, but Isaac had a foot pump so we pumped it up. Then we went to his van to get some gas. We went around town looking for food in the stores (some wouldn't sell anything), and taking pictures of the town. We found the town destroyed along the waterfront in many places but it was repairable and not everything was ruined. We then drove up the coast for some distance to an area that had several restaurants and diving shops. Here, we found that all the buildings severely damaged, and there was no sign that some of the shops had ever existed. In many places, the shoreline was changed by the storm. Some beaches were swept away (making hotel owners unhappy) while in other places, beaches were created. Throughout the town, many huge trees were uprooted by the storm and I don't think there is a straight lamp post in the “For the next couple of days I helped out where I could and then went to Merida. We returned to Cozumel on Oct. 2. The city is now in much better shape and most of the stores and houses have been repaired. Things are slowly getting back to normal, “Today (Oct. 5) there was a cruise ship in the harbour, so there were lots of American tourists in the centre square again. That's where the souvenir shops are. The hotels are also open, although some are having to make repairs on many of their rooms — but that should be finished in another couple of . weeks. Most of the phones still don't work, however. The phone company is known for its slow service so it doesn’t look like we'll have phone service anytime soon. “I should say that the house where I am living (the Ponces') suffered only minor damage — one broken window — unfortunately, a new stained glass one. Most well-built houses suffered little damage, but the poorer houses are in bad shape. “I'm getting along fairly well with learning Spanish, but it’s still a challenge because many people speak very quickly. I keep saying “despacio por favor” (slowly please). John Charters Reflections and recollections “When we were on the Yucatan peninsula in September (before the hurricane) I was able to visit the Mayan ruins at UX-MAL. The size of the buildings is truly incredible.” During this first part of his stay in Mexico, Lari’s Rotary parents have been Rafael and Maruca Ponce. It was probably not quite the welcome his good host had planned for him. The second letter is from John Munday, former Castlegar teacher, missionary and outstanding ian who has an orphanage and shelter for abandoned children over the past 25 years in Quiot, Ecuador. Three stories of his adventures appear in my book Over My Shoulder. John, who has almost as many trials as Job, has severe heart problems which were thought to be irreversible and is going both blind and deaf.
