television shows on their videotape recorders aren't likely to be hauled into court for doing it, says a TV ex- ecutive.

Murray Chercover, presi- dent of the CTV network, said he sees little chance that people will be charged,

He was reacting to a ruling by a California appeals court that hinted U.S. viewers could be asking for trouble by using videotape recorders at home to watch a show later at their convenience.

The U.S. ruling said that such use infringes on the copyright held by the owners of the shows being broadcast.

This was the second round in a case by the Disney and Universal movie studios

She was best known for Harvey, a light-hearted com- edy which chronicled the ad- ventures of a man and his companion, an invisible two- metre rabbit. It played in New York for five years to become one of the longest- running shows in Broadway history and won her a Pulitzer in 1945. Actor Jim- my Stewart later starred in a film version.

Born in Denver on Feb. 25, 1906, she dropped out of the University of Denver to join the staff of The Rocky Mountain News, where she met her husband, Robert Chase, a retired associate editor of the paper.

Using music as a link

NEW YORK (AP) — Can Harry Belafonte make the music of Africa as popular as he once did the music of the Caribbean?

He doesn’t predict he'll succeed, but he intends to try.

His new record, Loving You Is Where I Belong, his first in seven years, has a Zulu song on it, sung as a medley with Bob Dylan's Forever Young. If the album succeeds, he'll make another, with more than one song from Africa included.

He wants to popularize the music of Africa to interest Americans in Africa and African culture, to make ‘people think of Africa as a place with links to American and European life.

“African culture isn’t Tar- zan and a constant beating of drums around a ritual of hostility,” he says. “There is a civilized culture.”

Belafonte says: “Many jazz and pop musicians have pro- duced works in Africa and based on African music, but it hasn't gained the level of popularity I had hoped.”

PUT IT OVER

He'd like to be the one to put it over. He says, “I think I showed that it was possible to reflect images of a culture

M that was alien to the United

States, specifically the West Indies. When I sang Mama Look at Bubu and Smart Woman Smarter there was nothing at all that indicated this music would gain an international response.”

Belafonte's career started 30 years ago, in the fall of 1951, when the then-24-year- old singer had a collection of American and adatped West Indies folk songs and a guit- arist. A two-week engage- ment at New York's Village Vanguard was extended, led toan RCA recording contract and record-breaking crowds in personal appearances.

In the 1950s and ‘60s, Belafonte calypso hits were consistently on America’s record players and radios —The Banada Boat Song, Day-O, Jamaica Farwell, Matilda, Come Back, Liza.-

And Belafonte starred in movies, Carmen Jones and Island in the Sun in the mid-i9503s, and Uptown Sat- urday Night in 1974.

Then, his recording dates dried up.

“We woke up one day and everything was rock.”

His movie roles dried up, not because he lost his looks. He says that the civil rights movement opened doors from the late 1950s to the mid-1970s.

“Then the doors of Holly- wood shut on minorities and blacks.”

“I say superstar, super- star, it mean’s nothing to me,” Adams said in an inter- view. “It’s a stupid hype term. I just do what I do. If it’s accepted, great.”

going to do it. I started playing in bands and that was it.”

Eventually, he landed a deal with A and M records. “They didn't expect anything to happen at all and suddenly there they were with this hit song.”

The song, Let Me Take You Dancing, was a disco hit in New York and has since sold about 250,000 copies in the U.S. and Europe, much to Adams’ chagrin. -

He said the song wrongly identified him -as a disco artists but it led to an in- vitation to cut his first album, titled Bryan Adams, in Los Angeles.

While the album. earned praise, it never made it big.

THE BEAL AD.

Now, Adams feels better about his new album, You Want It — You Got It. The consistant rock line through- out the album is the Adams he wants people to know.

Recorded in 17 days last spring in New York, it is packed with guitar-heavy hard rock and a pair of gentle ballads.

He put toegether another band, his fourth in the last year, to take on his current tour which has taken him to Winnipeg.

Besides his reputation as a

singer, he is also developing a talent for song writing.

All of the 85 to 40 songs he has written with Jim Val- lance, former drummer with Prism, have made it to someone's record. _ =

All Adams he wants for his career is 4 Chance to continue it.

“['m really happy just make records,” he said. “If they take off, that’s the pay- off.”

It’s a blow-up

When Canadian actor Al Waxman loses his head, it's a big blow-up.

A climactic sequence in Death Bite, a recently filmed Toronto horror movie, in- volves a special effect that was supposed to be kept under wraps. The gimmick is that Waxman's head, or rather 2 model of it, gets blown off when venom boils his blood.

American makeup speci- alist Dick Smith regards it as

the best he has created, and Smith is an expert on the subject. he masterminded the makeup for The Exorcist, Altered States and The God- father.

But it’s not the first time a Canadian actor lost his head to the movies. Michael Iron- side had his blown off in David Cronenberg’s Scan- ners, a thriller that took in an estimated $16 million in gross revenues earlier this year in the U.S. and Canada.
