THE REVEALING FILM WHICH EXPOSES

DATE: August 9

theory on how
to become a star is to make
an album, then tour to pro-
mote that album.

The Tennessee River Boys
are doing it the other way
‘around.

For almost three years
they were one of the most
popular attractions at Opry-
land USA, a live variety
show in Nashville, and for the
last couple of years they have
toured constantly, doing 150
one-shot concerts in the last
12 months.

Remarkably, they're only
now putting together their
first record deal.

“We've talked to fans
about putting out a record for
a long time, but now we're
actually talking to some
labels, so at least that’s some
progress,” Matt Davenport,
the group's founder, said in
an interview at the Big Val
ley Jamboree in Craven.

“We were in the studio and
put down some tunes. It’s all
getting a little closer to be-
coming a reality.”

SIX EN BAND

The six-member group
consists of vocalist Daven-
port, a native of North Caro-
lina; pianist Dan Truman of
Utah; fiddler Gene Johnson
from Pennsylvania; drummer
Brian Prout of New York;
guitarist Marty Roe from
Ohio; and lead guitarist Jim
Olander of Michigan.

The band was formed al-
most by accident, when Dav-
enport and former member
Danny Gregg were approach-
ed to do an appearance on a
Nashville television show.
They needed some backup
and pulled together some

players they knew who were
available.

“Five: seconds before we
auditioned we didn't know
what we were going to sing,”
recalled Davenport. “We sort
of put it together on the
spot.”

Their appearance got so
many phone calls from fans
they were called back for
more, and the group became
a fixture on the show.

HAD NO TIME

Davenport said that doing
the Opryland show and the
touring meant a hectic sched-
ule that left little time to
pursue a record contract.

“Basically we weren't real-
ly looking for a record deal,”
he said. “We wanted to wait
until we got the kind of mat-
erial together that we
wanted to put on an album.
We didn't want to throw
something together.”

Roe added it took some
time to go through personnel
changes in the band.

“I think this combination of
people is a lot closer to being
commercial than any other
combination we've had in the
past.”

PURE COUNTRY

Although the band has a
young style — trendy outfits
and long hair — its music is
pure middle-of-the-road coun-
try.

“When we worked at Opry-
land, that was the audience
we played to — everyone
from children to older age
groups,” said Roe. “We had
to form our show to fit that
and it’s carried over into our
original music as well.”

Unlike other large country
groups, there is no front man
for The Tennessee River
Boys.

HITLER FOOTAGE GONE e, oe

Morley wants archives

BANFF, ALTA. (CP) — Peter Morley loves to pose the
question to people, not because he has a malicious sense of
humor but because it's a di ic way to get his rs
across.

Would you like he asks kindly — his upper-crust accent
dripping with British dignity — to see the first televisic
interview with Adolf Hitler's sister?

Well, you can't, It’s been destroyed. Thrown in the
garbage when the film company that was holding it carried
out a routine house-cleaning before moving to new offices.

And that, says Morley, is why it’s so important to
establish television archives.

Morley and several international television representa
tives spent three days discussing the preservation of
archival material during seminars at the recent Banff
Television Festival.

FOR POSTERITY

“Everything we make is of value to posterity,” Morley
said in an interview. “We must think of those who, 500 years
from now, want to study the 20th century. Preserving our
visual heritage is vital.”

Take the case of Morley's 1959 d

“It turned out there was practically no available
footage. There were speeches, of course, but there was no
film of him walking, talking or doing anything as a private
individual.” .

NEED ORGANIZING

In Canada, the problem is not preservation, but

ization.

We're getting there, but we're by no means in perfect
conditior
sound division of the National Archives.

Copies of television programs have ended up in the
hands of the television networks, TV stations and individual
film-makers across the country.

Kula hopes the situation will improve in the future,
thanks to the new National Archives Act, passed in early
June. Copies of all films and television programs now must
be made available to the National Archives, although that's
no guarantee everything will be kept.

Kula said that's why film-makers and broadcasters
should still strive to maintain their own collections.

“Ideally it should be-a marriage between the
fil ker, tl

featuring interviews with Hitler's sister Paula Wolf and
three aides who were eyewitnesses to his death.

“The program got enormously high ratings,”
recalled.

“Tabloid newspapers that day ran headlines that read,
‘Hitler's sister speaks tonight on ITV.’ It was a sensation.”

But it was not so much the content of the show — she
talked mostly about her brother's childhood — as the fact it
was a television first that gave it historical value, Morley
said.

A loss of more demonstrable significance came out of
the political upheaval in Greece during the late 1960s and
early 1970s.

Sam Jula, a director of the National Archives of Canada,
said massive amounts of Greek television footage were
destroyed.

“The people in charge of broadcasting decided that all of
the news film and documentary film show during the time of
the colonels was suspect, was lies,” he said.

“It was Propaganda, they decided, so they simply
destroyed it al

Respect for archival material varies from country to
country.

“In the United States, for instance, there are statutory
powers where one copy of every film or television program
has to be deposited in the Library of Congress,” said Morley.

Gyorgy Balo of Hungarian TV said the situation in
socialist countries is generally deplorable.

“When (Soviet leader) Yuri Andropov died, Soviet
television was trying to put together a film about him,” Balo
said.

he broad and the government,” he said.
PLOUFFES LOST

The greatest losses, of course, were in the early days of
television. For example, most episodes of Les Plouffes, the
popular 1950s drama series that ran in both French and
English versions on the CBC, were destroyed.

“Ironically, most of the losses that occurred in the early
days happened when kinescope recordings were transferred
to videotape,” said Kula.

“Somebody determined there was no repeat value with
some of these shows, so they wiped out the tapes.”

Kula was reluctant to give other examples. Years ago
he reported that This Hour Has Seven Days, the landmark
CBC public affairs series, had been destroyed — only to have
someone show up with a pirated copy.

“It never fails,” he said with a laugh. “As soon as I say a
program's disappeared, a copy shows up. That's good, of
course, but it’s also embarrassing.”

HOLD FIVE YEARS

The International Federation of TV Archives has
recommended a policy of keeping a copy of all broadcasts for
a minimum of five years.

“That gives you some kind of historical perspective
before making selections on what's to be kept for a long
time,” said Kula.

Morley admitted it would be unrealistic to expect
film-makers. and television networks to keep absolutely
everything.

“Our message is just to have them sharpen their
senses,” he said. “We want them to be aware that if they've
got something they think may be of some importance, they
should do something about it.”

Skelton hates to swear

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Red Skelton, America’s classic
clown for five decades, leaned forward so his message could
be heard above the clatter of dishes at the swank cafe.

“Today's comics use four-letter words as a shortcut to
thinking,” Skelton said. “They're shooting for that big laugh
and it becomes a panic thing, using four-letter words to
shock people.

“You'll laugh, but when you leave and your dignity
returns, you say ‘Why?’ I know more dirty jokes than any
guy who ever lived. But I don't do them on stage. I have too
much respect for my audience.

“It's quite rewarding to hear laughter without the use of
four-letter words. I'd rather have people say I'm hokey than
have them say a year from now, ‘That was the comic who did
all those dirty jokes.’

Skelton became a national institution on radio in the
1930s and ran a record 20 consecutive years on television
until 1971. Today, at 73, he still tickles America's funny bone
with 75 concert dates a year plus videos and TV reruns of his
old shows.

At a recent performance at Caesars Palace, Skelton
received a standing ovation before he had even delivered his
first line — something very rare in Las Vegas showrooms.

MESMERIZES AUDIENCE

Skelton mesmerized his audience during the one-man,
two-hour show. He kept asking them if they were tired,
always drawing a chorus of “Nos.”

Later, during an interview, Skelton joked about his
warm recpetion.

“The first three rows are wired. We hit the switch and
everyone jumps up. Besides, the show runs so long that
people want to get up and stretch their legs.”

Skelton admits Tuesday nights — when his show ran —
are tough on him, after decades as a staple in America’s
home entertainment menu.

“Our show was never out of the Top 15 on radio or TV,”
Skelton said. “When CBS cancelled us they said we weren't

reaching the buying public, the college age. They said we
were reaching children and the elderly, but not the buying
power. They forgot the little kids were going to grow into
buying power. They're the ones coming to see me now.”

Still, he wouldn't like to return to television on
a permanent basis: “I couldn't put up with these young
people trying to tell me what to do; trying to tell me what
was funny.”

Skelton was born July 18, 1913, two months after his
father died. His mother raised four boys, working as a
cleaning woman and elevator operator in an Indianapolis
office building. She taught him an appreciation for art and
she sparked his interest in comedy by providing tickets to
vaudeville shows.

MEDICINE SHOW

At the age of 10 Skelton joined a medicine show
travelling through the South and Midwest.

He paid his professional dues in tent shows, minstrels,
circuses, burlesque, showboats and vaudeville before
moving into radio, television and motion pictures.

Two years after his show was cancelled he started
playing at college campuses throughout the United States.
He often donates the money he makes to student projects.

Skelton stays active on the club circuit with
engagements at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Caesars Tahoe
in South Lake Tahoe, Atlantic City, Evansville, Ind.,
Owensville and Paducah, Ky., and Chicago.

In mid-July, he celebrates his birthday in Honolulu,
which will bring together art connoisseurs who have paid
$25,000 to $81,000 for his, original oil paintings.

Skelton began his art career at the age of five by
painting faces on old round-topped clothes pins. Today, he
estimates the sale of his lithograph reproductions annually
tops $2.5 million

He has written numerous motion pictures and starred in
dozens more. He has written an estimated 5,000 musical
selections, including 64 symphonies, and more than 4,000
short stories.

What has he enjoyed most in 64 years as America’s
resident clown?

“The people, I think. Yes . . . the people.”

In recent weeks I've been asked to take in four very
needy young people, although to date none has been
confirmed so none has arrived. The youngest, a
five-year-old “street boy” ended up in hospital in the far
end of Cuito. The social worker there phoned me this
week to see if we had room. Before that, the juvenile
court brought out a 13-year-old boy whose exceedingly
poor and simple parents cannot control him. A traffic
accident some years ago left him with the mentality of a
six-year-old. C he needs super-
vision, but other than that seems harmless enough.

Ennio is a 16-year-old boy whose father moved here
for Chile to marry an attractive Ecuadorian lady. He left
her with two small children and his own son by another
woman (Ennio) to start up still another home with his
legal wife's best friend. Ennio is a sensitive, insecure
young man, small for his age, and worn out from weeping
because of a situation that is too big for him to bear.

The fourth boy is from nearby San Antonio and is a
student at the primary school whére so many of my own
children study. The directress virtually pleaded that I
take him in. I believe he is another 13-year-old. His

It’s just past the half-way
point in summer. If you're
like my family, you may well
be looking for something for
your children to do. Our son
is enrolled in swimming
classes and, like so many
adults, we do so for a variety
of reason:

e he needs to be “drown.
proofed;”

@ he needs to be less afraid
of water

he should also be devel-
oping a healthy respect for
water, and so on.

All of this is a part of his
growth and development.
However, ask him or any of
the other children at swim-
ming, and none of this will

terms.) As in past summers,
a number of churches in town
are offering one week Vac-
ation Bible schools. Some
have already been held:
others, like the one that my
congregation is holding, will
be very soon. Why bother,
you may ask?

Vacation Bible school is an
enjoyable way to introduce
children to Jesus Christ as
the Lord and Savior of our
lives. It is a wonderful way to
help children see that people
of God's Creation and that
God's love is for us all. As
parents, we are all concerned
with our children’s growth
and development. I'd like to
urge you not to overlook
their spiritual growth and

mean hii
the part about ‘growth and
development. Learning to
swim is fun and they enjoy it.
All the rest is incidental.
Learning and growth seem
never to stop. I'd’ like to
suggest yet another area of
learning and growth. This
summer, why not look into
some fun and enjoyable reli-
gious instruction for your
children? (Believe me, having
