Eddie Eastman wants image that will stick HALIFAX (CP) — Eddie Eastman has two Juno Awards, three albums and a television show under the large silver buckle of his belt, but this country singer wants more. He said in an interview it isn't enough to have people across the country see you in clubs night after night: an entertainer needs a profile and he's working on one. Eastman is in Halifax to do a show without his back-up band, Terra Nova Express, and will sing original songs with a local band The singer said his own band is in a transitional per iod “in terms of members, size and instrumentation. “I found myself being lim ited to a dance band,” said the 35-year-old singer who moved to Toronto from New Artist to foundland in 1977. “It wasn’t Eddie Eastman, recording artist; it was how good the band was and Eddie Eastman happened to be the front man. The plan to launch Eddie Eastman as singer, recording artist and entertainer in. cludes a new 12-week CBC television program, The Ed die Eastman Show. It will be televised during prime time this fall and winter in New foundland and Labrador. “I think with the TV show, it'll give me more visibility and credibility with the gen eral public,” said Eastman. The path to public accep. tance, though, lies in cutting records and making hit songs, and Eastman, who was born Eddie Roswell in Terra Nova, Nfid., has been busy doing both. His first duet with Carroll Baker, Too Hot to Sleep To. night, released in Canada and the United States, has been followed by a second, re corded in Nashville, Tenn., How Close Am I to Losing You Baker and Eastman now are discussing a possible Canadian concert tour. In October, Eastman will finish recording his fourth al bum, Undercover Lovers, with singles to be released before the end of the year. While in Nashville to finish the album, Eastman and Gil les Godard, a songwriter from Ontario, will put to gether a television special for the Nashville network about a Canadian trying to make it in that country music capital. ‘More often than not, ugly reality overcomes illusion a8 soon as the novice restaurateur sinks his first $50,000 to $100,000 into the venture and discovers how difficult it is to keep the doors open in a risky and competitive “A lot of people have this bizarre fantasy of having a ” Tore critic Joanne Kates. “They think because they're gregarious and their wife can bake a pie, they can open a restaurant. “Yet the economics are lousy and the profits in a family-run operation are marginal.” Hight out of 16 new restaurants fail in their first three years of business, says David Harris of the Cana- dian Restaurant and Food Services Association.

The central bank says the change in process was made earlier this year to $1 bills. “The face of the one and two-dollar notes continues to be printed using the intaglio steel engraved process com- bined with. lithography and letter press, but the back of these notes is now printed using only lithographie pro- cesses.” The bank said the change, made to reduce printing costs, will not affect the ap- pearance of the bills “in any appreciable way.” A bank spokesman said he did not know exactly how much money the change would save.

For example, she suggests checking the possibility of opening a personal line of credit rather than opting for a loan because the interest rates may be lower. David Willock, a spokesman for the Bank of Montreal, says that the cheapest car loan costs 14.25 per cent at the bank, but a personal line of credit can be obtained at 13.25 per cent. WILL SAVE MONEY 14.25 per cent but a loan whose interest rate is variable can be had for 13.25 per cent.

If you borrowed $10,000 over four years, the lower rate would save you a total of $240. At other institutions, a personal line of credit may cost a little more than the minimum loan rate; at others it may not be offered at all. So it's worth shopping around to see what's available. For example, the Bank of Nova Scotia has a minimum car loan rate of 14.25 per cent but a line of credit costs 15 per cent. ~_ NELSON 352-2518 Reno, 7 days, Sands Hotel NOV.3 Reno, 7 Days, Sundowner Reno, 7 Days, Sundowner *On dates marked with an asterisk you can choose to stay at the Ponderosa Hotel at o cost of $259 per “person on 7 days, $269 on 8 days from Nelson Castlegor or Trail to Reno and return aboard a STITT Monday, Oct. | fo Fri.

He began an operation in volving illegal passports which helped hundreds of Jews escape the Nazis — a feat that has earned him the title of “Canadian Wallen berg.” (Swedish diplomat Ra oul Wallenberg is credited with saving thousands of Jewish lives.) Grant was later arrested and spent time in several Borrowers should be aware that a line of credit will generally be subject to interest rate changes. The system for calculating how much a personal line of credit should be varies.
