Jackson hopes to stay young

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Pop star Michael Jackson is buying a hyperbaric oxygen chamber in hopes it will keep him young, a spokesman said, but medical experts warn the device can be dangerous.

Jackson, 28, is having his own hyperbaric chamber made, his personal manager, Frank Dileo, said Tuesday

Pictures of Jackson in a chamber appeared this month in the National En quirer, but Dileo said he did not know where the singer had been photographed.

Calgary clerk sings way to talent win

By GWEN DAMBROFSKY WINNIPEG (CP) — Cor elie Keller has worked at an agriculture station, as a sec retary and a sales clerk, but after winning the national country music talent contest she may finally be on the way to a fulltime career as a country music singer.

The 22-year-old Calgarian beat out 11 competitors from across Canada to win the

“contest, sponsored by the Academy of Country Music Entertainment and held as part of the five-day Country Music Week convention.

“I really thought I blew it,” said the excited, slim blonde after the nearly three-hour competition was over. “I didn’t think I was going to win.

polished stage presence in performing two numbers, one a country standard and the other a song written by a friend of Keller's.

The judges, five people representing radio stations, music clubs and booking agencies, admitted it was a close contest. Impressive performances were also turned in by Winnipeg singer Lisa Yerex and Regina singer-guitarist Ray Bras seur.

Keller's prize includes $3,000 toward a recording session in a studio of her choice and inclusion in a special concert featuring a number of entertainers nom. inated for this year's Country Music Awards.

In previous years, the con test has been a significant springboard in launching the careers of a few winners.

NEW HOST OF SHOW

Deborah Lauren, the vic. tor two years ago, parlayed the experience into a job as host of Country West, a nationally televised CBC

country music show. Lauren

also served as host at Wed nesday night's contest.

Keller, who was born in Rockgien, Sask., has been singing professionally since she was 15. While holding down a day job as a sales clerk at a western-wear clothing store in Calgary, she has been working at night as a singer with the Whiskey River Band in Cal gary's country bars.

The Country Music Week talent show is open to pro fessionals as long as they have not released a commer cial recording. Each com petitor must have won a reg

ional contest before making it to the finals.

“It was a chance to meet other people in the recording business and learn from them,” Keller said of her reasons for entering. “The winners are brought into the limelight and given a chance.”

As for her future plans, Keller said she is trying to get together her own band.

“I'd like to go solo, but I haven't really done the groundwork yet. But I wanted to record eventually, and this is really going to help.”

Wine still off shelves

By CasNews Staff and News Services Wine drinkers who have been scouting around for South African wines will find them hard to find — even in — after threats that two bottles were manager of the local Government Liquor

store received a directive last Thursday to pull its South African wines from the shelves.

A Victoria newspaper and television station had received letters Thursday that declared: “We poisoned two bottles of South African wine.”

The letters were signed “Direct Action” — the same name as @ group that claimed responsibility for the 1982 bombing of a B.C. Hydro substation near Parksville on Vancouver Island, and the bombing of Litton Systems Canada Ltd. in Toronto in which 10 people were injured.

Police and the Liquor Distribution Branch were immediately notified and South African liquor was removed from liquor store shelves.

Brown says he hasn't received any word as to when the liquor ean be put back on the shelves. A few empty shelves bear signs saying the products are temporarily out of stock.

The B.C. government says new South African wines will likely be back on the shelves within a week.

The local liquor store normally carries about a dozen different brands of South African liquor, including wine, sherry and port.

Brown says the move to stop buying South African wines in opposition to that country's apartheid policies hasn't affected sales at the Castlegar store — unlike Lower Mainland outlets where he says there has been more opposition to apartheid.

Veitch says provincially, sales of South African wines have imereased by more than 30 per cent.

Government figures show 155,758 litres of red and white South African wine were sold during the 12 months ending in June this year. That was a 33-per-cent increase from 116,294 litres the previous year.

“My personal reaction is I don't know if that’s possible,” Mike Babaeff said. “I don't know how the heck it would work.”

Delegates at the IWA convention in Nanaimo voted earlier this week to approach British Columbia's two pulp unions — the PPWC and the Canadian Paperworkers Union —to discuss merging into a single forest industry union.

Babaeff, who said he has been trying to contact his union's national head quarters to find out exactly what the status of the proposal is, said he will remain open-minded about a possible merger.

“I would have to wait and see what's offered,” he said. “It (a single union) would definitely have the benefit of being a larger body.”

Discussion of the resolution reflected delegates’ concern about employer strength in contract negotiations and

NANAIMO (CP) — The international president of the International Woodworkers of American said Tuesday he is reluctantly resigned to the almost certain split in the North American union.

About two-thirds of the 30,000 B.C. woodworkers have been on strike since late July.

“[ean't say Igive it (dissolution) my wholehearted support,” Johnson said in a speech to the 170 delegates. “There are some weaknesses and some strengths.”

But he conceded preparations for the separation were being done “in a climate of understanding.”

Earlier, Opposition Leader Bob Skelly told wood- workers an NDP government would introduce legislation to guarantee job security for workers.
