aU.s. | institution |

LOS ANGELES (AP) — As national institutions’ go, he is not as old as the Statue of Liberty nor as big as

Mount Rushmore, and he’

steadfastly declares he is not as rich as Fort Knox.

But Bob Hope seeras al- most as durable as those other U.S. landmarks. Dur- ing the last 45 years he has been a regular visitor in North American living rooms, first with his radio show, then with a series of television specials. He has made 65 movies, countless

- shows for the armed forces

and charities, as well as for paying customers. He has starred in every medium of show business in this coun- try.

He has made it all and still he wants to do more, despite the fact he'll be 80 on May 29.

happen? God, it got here so fast! I feel like saying, ‘Stop the world, I want to count.’

He is marking the event in Hope style: with a three-hour NBC television special from the Kennedy Centre in Wash- ington on May 28. His old pal, President Reagan, will take part, plus performers rang- ing from Mikhail Baryshni- kov to Kermit the Frog.

BORN IN ENGLAND

Hope generally prefers talking about the future, but the fourscore birthday called for reminiscence by the man born in England as Leslie Townes Hope. His family emigrated to the United States when he was four years old and settled in Cle- veland, Ohio.

“There have been some good times and some bad times,” he says, “But looking back, the bad times come un- der the heading of experi- ence.”

“The worst time? I guess that was when I was starving in Chicago in 1928. Not really starving, but it was so bad I was thinking of going home

FACED CRITICISM The Hope image came un- der attack for the first time in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when he was viewed

by some asa supporter of the ©

Vietnam War and. the con- servative establishment, “I wasn't controversial; the

war was controversial,” Hope

says. “When I saw the sol- diers laughing in Vietnam, that outweighed the criticism 1,000-to-1. There was no way I could go back on those kids.”

Aside from a physical regi- men of golf, walks and mas- sage, Hope maintains the sound .of laughter in what keeps him going.

“The most fun I have is doing the shows,” he says. “To be around actors and writers, to be singing and joking, ‘tobe hearing the laughter — that's what enjoy- ment is, That's what keeps me healthy.

“Retire? No, not as lose as Tm feeling good.”

After failing as an actor and painter, Atget found his true vocation in photography in 1898 at age 41. From then until his death-in 1927 he photographed every visible aspect of his beloved city, Paris, especially the ancient and historical quarters,

TORONTO (CP) - Exalted One is the name and initiate to the Sun God is my game, or at least it was at the world premiere of the 11-hour, $150-a-ticket musical experi- ence called Ra.

Asteely-eyed hierodule, or assistant to high priest Hier- ophant, summoned each. of us to her in turn to whisper one ‘of the 75 magic names of Ra “as a seal of divine protec- tion” to carry us through the night-long performance. pro-

Contrary to plot, i it was not the dem an , mons! that terrified half as the no-nonsense actors’ cast as hierodules.

They run a tight ship.

It’s a case of speak when you’ ‘re spoken to and do as you're told in the nether- world through which Ra and his audience of 75 must pass between sundown and sunup at the Ontario Science Cen- tre, where 10 performances of the epic are being staged.

As the Ra handbook fore- warned: “The role of initiate isa challenging and reward- ing one.” No smoking or eat- ing — except at the post- midnight feast — no hand- bags, knapsacks or cameras. Practical clothing, preferably a track suit, is the order of the night of indoor-outdoor chanting, incense . burning,

Writers talk money

Canadian authoress Alice Munro, at a recent public reading in Washington, de- scribed 15 years of effort and rejection slips before her first book Dance of the Happy Shades came out in 1968. x All that time, she said, she knew no other writers. Now she knows many, but. still doesn't discuss: writing with

By .near-dawn, in a chilly rain, the great battle be- tween Ra and his most vile enemy, the paper dragon > Apophis, ensued. As a loyal initiate, Exalted One should have, chanted and stomped.

But privately he ‘hoped Apophis would eat Ra and we could-all go home. «
