CONFIDENTIAL REPORT: I've got a hit show on TV
named after me. It's seen in 60 countries. I'm well paid.
(only have to work two hours a week, | don't even have
to learn my lines or worry about getting fat." So says
John Forsythe of his role {n ‘Charlie's Angels.’ His Is the
well modulated voice of Charlie, who is always heard but
never seen as he orders the everchanging trio of lovelies
to do his bidding. If nothing else, the role leaves him
plenty of time for other lucrative pursuits, including his
weekly TV series, ‘World of Survival,’ his part as a, corrupt
and sadistic judge in a new film '...and Justice For Ail’
and an NBC-TV movie this fall in which he plays the
leader of a group of aliens visiting earth. Unfortunately,
he told me he can't relate any fuicy details about the
lives of the Angels. ‘We never meet," he complains, "We
write each other little notes, but that's it.’

TV TICKER: CBS is sweating blood over its $4 million
miniseries called ‘Flesh and Bicod,’ based on the Pete
Hamill best seller. Director Jud Taylor assembied a top
flight cast and crew for this effort—including ‘Deer
Hunter’ cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond and actors
of the caliber of Tom Berenger, John Cassavetes and
Suzanne Pleshette—who will tackle the very controver-
sial theme of a boxer’s incestuous love for his mother.
The network never knew what it was getting into when
it gave the green light to the project, and be assured
that all concerned think that it is time TV tastefully
tackled such a theme. But after producer Jerry Abrams
delivered the completed film—which the CBS censors
had previously approved, page for page—a t
executive at the network decided it would be necessar:
to make a few “minor revisions" in the final cut. Hamill
was outraged and outspoken in his put-down of what he
terms “Network with no s

supermodel. Meanwhile, Chery! has also asked for a
release from her ABC contract—she does spots on
‘Good Morning, America’ and ‘American Sportsman’—in
order to pursue an anchor-style spot on NBC's ‘Today

One boy's opinion

Cars...

By MIKE FRISBY
610

Ag

Cars are the main source of transportation in the
world today.

Cars have come a long way from old cars that go
about 10-20 miles an hour up to racing cars and
Porsches that go 100-200 miles an hour.

Cars are also number one on the list for killing
people. Cars may leave the world in a few years
because of the rising price of oil.

What I think will take over after cars are gone is a
fantasy vehicle—the hover

The hover-craft is run by solar energy and just
speeds along the ground. In the movie “Star Wars”
there is a vehicle called the land-speeder. The
land-speeder is a machine run by a motor and is not
really moving along, but in a few years they won't
have to be fake.

Now lets get back to the topic. I am 10 now and by-
the time I am 25, there won't be any cars along the
streets of Castlegar. We will either see hover-crafts or
people jugzing, Or, who knows? They might come up
with o car that runs on booze or water or something.

Acar is a great machine and boy I hope I will have
anice car when I get older. Most of us call our cars Old
Betsy and the car deserves it a lot.

Right now all of you should thank your cars by
kissing their tires, They deserve it.

Most of us couldn't have made our trips to
Disneyland without cars. It is also hard on a car to
drive a long way without a rest just as it is for us to
run a long way without a rest. So, let's take off our
hats and give thanks to our cars.

He's a stow
throne’s away

Once upon atime a great
King had a heavy throne. He
alse had a little boat. He liked
to go out in his boat sitting on
his throne.

One day while enjoying
the boat and the water a
sudden breeze sprang up,
rocked the boat, and the
heavy throne slid to one side
of the boat. The little boat
tipped over causing the King
to lose a lot of things not the
least of which was his dig-
nity.

Moral: People with small
boats shouldn't stow thrones.

If you haven't moved

will make it to the top, a
United States business teor-
ist said recently.

“The writing should be
onthe wall by then,” said Dr.
Harry Levinson, of Camb-
ridge, Mass, “And usually,
those who make it do so
because they have a mentor
supporting their progress.”

“The average age of
chief executive officers is
about 47, so competition in

positions has become more
intense in a shorter period.”

One corsolation is that
