Commercials on videos By The Canadian Press Some advertisers see the video boom as a new opportunity to spread commercial messages, although they available free at cassette rental stores. The firm, Video Information Netowrk, receives money from the advertisers. “You have to be interested in the product already,” know they'll have to outsmart the behavior” of VCR owners. - Stephen Rosenblum, a vice-president with Young and Rubicam Ltd., told a recent seminar in Toronto that about 60 per cent of VCR owners are in the desirable “mid-upscale” consumer groups. But these people also tend to be “elusive, lighter-than- normal viewers of traditional broadcast television . . . in an era where traditionally fix: di isi I are incompatible with increasingly complex and hurried business and personal lifestyles.” A simple example of video advertising is the inclusion of a cola ad at the beginning of the hit movie Top Gun. But Rosenblum said special-interest programs, like workout tapes, can include commercials for related products, such as a home exercise unit. And the special-interest ‘tapes tend to be viewed many times and often passed along to others. Another tactic is a contest linked to clues in the commercial. And beyond this, there is the utterly blurred format of an “info-mercial.” Rosenblum cited a tape on starting your own business in which a telephone company placed a message about telemarketing. By using entrepreneurs in the info-mercial, the commercial message “seemed like it was part of the actual program.” While this type of on-tape ad is what Rosenblum calls a “Trojan horse,” a Calgary-based firm has even taken to mounting ad space on the plastic containers that protect rented tapes. Richard Melchin, president of Adcorp Ltd., told the Toronto Star that with tape rental rates as low as 99 cents, video dealers are hungry for new ways to bring in revenue. ALL ADS Carrying video ads to the extreme, a company in Seattle is making videos that consist entirely of advertising. USA Today says the plan is for the videos to be ATT EDUCATION FOR THE admits company president Dan Haggart. But the price is right and, as one video store owner put it: “For nothing, the consumer might go for it.” SUPER VHS A new video format is joining about eight others: Super VHS, to be on sale in the United States later this year. D ped by the i of VHS, the format has about 430 lines of resolution, compared with 230 on current VHS — an increase that proponents say will maximize the resolution capability of TVs and offer a picture comparable in quality to laser discs. The new tapes, however, are only partially compatible with current VHS decks. Old tapes can go both ways — in current or Super decks — but Super tapes play only in Super decks. In Beta, meanwhile, a parallel product being developed is called Extended Definition Beta, which has the same limitations on tape playing. The Toronto Star, in a report on a recent major trade show in Chicago, said few dealers seemed interested in the Beta equipment. The Sony-developed format has only about five per cent of the North American market while VHS has about 50 per cent, the newspaper said. BIBLE ON VIDEO A group headed by British filmmaker John Heyman has undertaken a 25-year project ot convert the Bible to video, so far spending about $27 million of an estimated $250 million to produce the books of Genesis and Luke. The eight separate cassettes available so far sell for about $60 each and are meant to make a profit But the venture also involves more than 200 scholars to ensure the production is accurate, and a Toronto Globe and Mail review say sthe productions releases so far have a “wonderfully naturalistic tone” with “solid and unhistrionic” acting and a “refreshing simplicity.” Promotional material for the project promotes it as the “first major transformation of the Bible in more than 500 years, destined to be the most popular video series on the market.” New RV park opens By RON NORMAN Editer Castlegar’s first recrea- tional vehicle park is open for business.” The park, located at the south end of the Community Complex, was constructed jointly by the Castlegar Kiw- anis Club, the City of Castle- gar and the Castlegar and District Development Board. Kiwanis club president Brian Brown said the park, which features 13 sites, is a prime example of the kind of cooperation that can take place between service clubs and local government. The Kiwanians adopted the RV park as a club project a few years ago and had worked on clearing brush and pouring some cement picnic tables and pads. However, they never quite managed to complete the work. Then this year the Castle- gar and District Develop- ment Board received a fed- eral grant to hire six workers to help finish the job. The workers began May 25 by clearing the underbrush, Reith memorial service Thursday Mary Doris Reith of Pen- ticton died Monday, June 15 following a lengthy illness. Miss Reith was born in New Denver in 1906 and moved to Vancouver with her parents as a child. She was a resident of Castlegar from 1940-44 and again from 1953-1975, where she was employed by the Castlegar Savings Credit Union as manager until 1968. She moved to Penticton in 1975. She is survived by a neph- ew, John Gordon Reith of Cranbrook, two nieces, Wen- dy Bouliane of Columbia Gardens, Linda Brommeland of Castlegar, and sister- in-law Margaret Reith. Miss Reith was pre deceased by her brother William Gordon Reith in 1962. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at St. David's Anglican Church, Castlegar at 7 p.m. Thursday.

Brown ‘also said the city crews have been a great help. “The city has shown so much enthusiasm it's out of this world.” Next on the agenda is to plant lawn seed throughout the park, but that will have to wait until after a water supply has been installed. Brown said the Kiwanis Club has agreed to put up $1,000 for the materials to supply water and the city has agreed to provide the crew and equipment. However, there are no plans to install electricity. In the long run the Kiwanis Club hopes to plant grass be- tween the park and 6th Avenue, says Brown. to pay $4,000 A former Castlegar man has been ordered to pay $2,000 to each of two teen- age girls for sexual harass- ment.

The hearing had heard separate complaints from two girls against Hunter. Hunter denied he harassed the two girls and accused them of lying and conspiring against him.
