Goodbye Bloom County

NEW YORK (AP) — Say bye-bye to

and swapped brains with Donald

Bloom County are soon to be history,

exhibit
work

Fhe students of the Marrit Kor-
tegaard Oil Painting Studio will exhibit
their recent work at the Nelson
Museum from May 8 to 31. This will be
the final exhibition of the studio, due
to the retirement of Kortegaard, effec-
tive this spring.

However, the graduates have
decided to form an art club for the fall,
to encourage each other to continue
working on their painting skills and to
continue the association which they
have developed throughout their
student classes.

Those artists whose work will be
exhibited-at-the-Museum~ include
Zillah Blunt, Bea McKinnon, Marjorie
Watson, Jill Cowan, Connie Walton,
Gertrude Littlewood, Kay Powell,
Kathleen McAdams, Laura Coventry,
Edna Mierau, Doris Bradshaw, Gladys
Frocklage and Caroll Waters.

The exhibition will be open from 1
p.m. 6 p.m. daily except holidays;—
and a small admission fee is charged to
those who are not members.

“A good comic strip is'no more

truth is that in most cases, comics age

Bloom County is retiring before the
stretch marks show,” Breathed said in
explaining his decision.

Readers of nearly 800 newspapers in
Canada and the United States now will
learn to live without big-beaked
penguin Opus, his buddy Milo and
motley party animal Bill The Cat; no
longer will their lives intersect those of

Kirkpatrick, Trump or Lee lacocéa -
three public figures frequently
skewered by Breathed.

Others in the business say they un-
derstand his decision; penning a daily
strip is anything but a million laughs
for its creator.

rotating blade, knowing that if you

Cantata
opens
May 13

The 1989 B.C. tour of the Cantata

|, Centroamericana is the first oppor-

tunity for Canadian audiences to see a
work which has already played major
festivals in Holland, Spain and South
America.

Performed by the Ensemble of the
Municipality of San Jose, Costa Rica,
this theatre event will be in Kaslo at the
Langham Theatre May 13 at 8 p.m.

Conceived as a popular history of
the region, the Cantata is a crowd-
pleasing mixture of music and theatre
performed by two singer/actors and a
four-piece band, a Langham Cultural
Society news release says. It tells the
tumultuous history of Central
America (Guatemala, El Salvador,
Honduras, Nicaragua and Costa Rica)
with a fast-moving mix of music-hall
comedy, puppets, masks, and 16 songs
ranging in style from the mournful
ranchero (Latin American country
music) to rhythmic calypso and salsa,
the release says.

The Cantata follows the fortunes of

two native Central Americans from the

mythical past of the Quiche people un-
til the present day. The powerful sym-
bolism of the resplendent Quetzal bird,
beloved in the region because it
chooses death rather than endure cap-
tivity, is reflected in the recurring use
of flight as a metaphor for liberty, the
release says. The script, prepared
especially for this tour, is performed in
English and Spanish, accompanied by
projected translations of the lyrics.
Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for
children.

Gallery shows
art by: Hodges

The Gallery of the Kootenays in
Nelson is currently showing an
exhibition of art by John Hodges.

The artist himself will demonstrate
his watercolor technique in the Gallery
May 19 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The
public is invited.

Orderly yet spontaneous, controlled
yet passionate, the paintings of
Hodges reflect the dual nature of the
man himself, a Gallery news release

Support Your Lung Association

says. ‘‘His fine balance between logic
and emotion, between the architect's
eye and the artist’s hand, has shown it-
self in a personal and artistic
progression from concrete realism to a
more interpretive expression of life,”’
the release says.

A journey through central B.C. and
the West Coast from Prince Rupert
south through the inside passage, has
generated the images of Hodges’
newest exhibit. The landscape of the
rolling cattle country of Quesnel, the
pulp forests of Willaims Lake and
Prince George, the pastoral Bulkley
Valley, the waterways of Skeena River,
and the isolated coastal settlements all
tell visual stories of man’s presence and
dreams, the release says.

- Seniors entertained

The Senior Citizens Association
members were entertained by Debra
Tompkins’ class of dancers at their
April sovial

After the singing.of Oh Canada, the
Tompkin twins, Jodi and Ashley,
played, several fiddle tunes on, their
violins accompanied by Edith Berg on
the piano — Debra joined them for a
few numbers.

The class then chose partners and

danced the Virginia Reel. Two mothers
and the teacher filled in fot members
who were absent due to illness. All
seemed to have a good time. This was
followed by two members in costume
who danced The Irish Washerwomen
with zest and excellence

The Highland Fling was danced by
the class, which includes some

Sword Dance and three dancers dan
ced with great care and precision. The
Sailors Hornpipe was performed in
costume by-two excellent dancers. The
class d§nged the Heel and Toe Polka as
its finaMiumber

The Seniors always enjoy these
