V* PAGE ia NOVEMBER 21. 1985 WESTERN CAROLINIAN Entertainment & Arts Fashion Weekly Update "The Legs Have It!" "Gentlemen Prefer Hanes" is a catchy tune heard in commercials dealing with legwear. Recently, international and national design companies such as Givenchy, Cardin, Klein and Picone, just to name a few, along with accessory manufacturerssuchas Burlmgtonand L'EGGS, have added a new rhythm to that tune. Legwear has undergone a revolution from the dull and simplistic natural, nude and basic white that once dominated the hosiery market, to all the brilliant shades, tints and hues of the color wheel. Today, legwear can be found in every color to meet changing fashion demands. Filling knits made of nylon are nolongertheonly material used in hosiery which is now constructed from stretch lace, mesh fishnets and other fancy knits. Intricate embroidered designs, along with details of bows, ribbon and lace trim, as well as printed dots and other geometric figures have heightened the 1980s leg looks. Seaming on opaque and ultra-sheer hose, seen in the 1940s, has returned to the fashion scene for additional pizazz. Legwear includes tights and socks as well as panty hose. Socks are currently most popular in ankle-lengths, better known as "bobbie socks". They can be played up in conjunction with a dressy outfit or played down with a more casual or sporty ensemble. Socks too can be found in lace and fishnet with intricate added detailing. Legs of today are drawing more and more attention with rising and falling skirt lengths and low or high heel heights. You can update most of your outfits inexpensively with today's newest trends in legwear, keeping in mind that "the legs have it"! Karen Sue Howard/Stephanie Crocitto T.V. STATIC- ODDS AND ENDS by Dan Lorey II This week, I have some odds and ends of news and thoughts about the world of television. First, the news: The Federal Communications Commission has approved the takeover of ABC by Capital Cities Commumcatin, Inc. (CCCI). This is the largest communications takeover in history. Reportedly,CCCI will be paying $3.5 Billion in cash for ABC CCCI has a very conservative management and that may influence ABC programming. The Geneva Summit between President Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Gorbachev will be covered by fifty-one television networks from around the world. From all types of media, over four thousand reporters will be in Geneva for the summit. The House of Seagram's, distillers of alcoholic beverages,is violently attacking the three major networks via magazine ads and commercials on cable television. Seagram's wanted the networks to run a commercial that stated that the alcohol contents of a can of beer, a glass of wine, and a shot of hard liquor were the same. Seagram's called the ad a "public service," stating that twenty-three states have this fact in their driver's manuals, thus it should be broadcast to the public. The networks looked upon the ads as being commercials that promoted consumption of hard liquor by saying that there was no more alcohol in a shot of scotch than in a can of beer. The networks, since they adhere to an unwritten commitment to not showing commercials for hard liquor, refused to air the ads. Seagram's claimed that the real reason for the refusal was the $450 million in advertising from beer and wine companies, and that the Seagram's ads would take away business from the companies, thus the beer and wine companies pressured the networks into refusing the ads. Forfellow Star Trek fans, theten new videotapes of original episodes that I referred to in last week's It m Is 'The Legs Have It!" Battle of the Bands Local Rock History by Gray Erlacher The Battle of the Bands was a success. Last Thursday night, the fourteenth, four local rock bands with an interesting combined history played in Hoey Auditorium, reminding us that even though Cullowhee isa college town without bars, it isn't a town without living room bands. The four groups that played were The Melt, Figure 3, Curious George, and The Generics. Each group has it's own story worth telling, and I will tell the best I can. Long before most of us came to Cullowhee, there was a group called Cullowhee. I heard they were quite talented, and then moved to Atlanta to starve or give up or something. To me, that's prehistory. History begins in 1980 Battle of the Bands was held in the natural amphitheater in front of, Madison. Aboutfive bands played. Four played cover tunes of Lynard Skynard and Marshall Tucker. The fifth band, which I remember as a member, played self-wrought space jazz or something like On Broadway with pyramids. Alan Grant of Upstairs Sound who worked on this year's Battle's sound, did sound then too. That same year, 100's of people collected in a field that I can't find to this day. A few early Cullowhee bands played there on the back of an 18 wheeler flatbed. There we first saw the Bedspins. Former Bedspin Jeff Richards, home tape wiz, was a Generic last Thursday. The Generics have had multiple incarnations in the last five years, intermingling with King Spontaine and the Montanas (now defunct), and former members Roger Cowens and Errol Stewert, who later played with A.K.A., Mantra Factory, and a drummer from Cullo-nam. But Thursday night's Generic line-up was John "Hutch" Hutchinson - guitar, Jeff Richards - guitar, Gary Mitchell - bass, and the inimitable David "Blood Knuckles" Oder on drums. Despite nice renditions of "Land of 1000 Dances", and "Brown Eyed Girl", the Generics were unable to practice "at all" recently (David lives in Charlotte), they had some technical problems that all the bands experienced, and they didn't take home a cash prize. No local History of Rock and Roll is complete without mention of the only nightclub (swill-hole) ever to exist in Cullowhee the legendary Thirsty's, founded by Ben Hale and Brad Bunch. The PHOTOS NEXT PAGE Generics/Bedspins/Montanas were a major part of the rock to go down there, but the record for consecutive and cummulative performances has to go to Curious George, the third place winners in Thursday's show. I bet tney played every Friday and Saturday nightfor a cold year, with a few Thursdays thrown in. Lead singer Phil Buchanon risked electrocution religiously in ankle deep beer, paying the dues that all great rockers must pay. The style that comes natural to C.G. is popular these days. I would like to see them become famous. Robbie Hensley on guitar, Steve Hensley on bass, Bill Wolf on drums, Eric Wilson on guitar, and Phillip Buchanon on vocals. A newer group, which unfortunately I know less about, is Figure 3. Their prominent leader, James Sardone, plays guitar,- sings, writes some (all?) of the tunes, and hosts the New Music Show Monday nights. I first heard them practice in the Sylva dance studio almost three years ago, when they were assembling Cars songs under the name The CONTINUED NEXT PAGE THANK YOU FOR NOT SMOKING ON NOV. Join the Great American Smokeout Thursday, November 21. Quit for one day and you might quit for good. AMERICAN CANCER # SOCIETY column are scheduled to be released on November 20. Also,the movie Star Trek IV is currently scheduled fora Christmas 1986 release. Reportedly, Leonard Nimoy will direct the picture. And finally, on the network news front, CBS News reporters, led by primary news anchorman Dan Rather, are looking at the possibility of buying the CBS News Division in the event of another takeover bid by a certain group who is seeking to fix CBS' "liberal bias." At NBC, a new theme song for NBC News, by noted composer John Williams, and a new opening graphics sequence of the Statue of Liberty do not seem to be having any effect on news viewership. NBC was hoping that the new song and sequence would project a more appealing image but the NBC Nightly News remains in last place in the ratings. And at ABC, veteran news reporter and 20/20 corrrespondant Giraldo Rivera is planning on leaving the network, proclaiming that he was a "square peg in a round hole." Now, some random thoughts: Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories continues to have sickenly-sweet,stories with happy endings and tends to have teen-age major characters. This past week, Amazing Stories had a story about aliens coming to Earth. To make a long story very short, the aliens had been picking up TV signals from Earth, and the aliens worshipped twenty-year- old comedies, such as I Love Lucy. So the aliens came to Earth to see from stars. They did, were happy, and left. Now, let's contrast this to a classic episode of alien visitation from the original Twilight Zone. Aliens came to Earth and gave mankind incredible technological advances, social improvements, and a book in the aliens' native tongue. Human translators determined that the book's title was To Serve Man, and everyone thought it was a book on helping mankind, and everyone trusted the aliens. As the first shipload of humans left Earth on a visit to the alien home planet, the book was finally translated — To Serve Man was a cook book. Quite a difference between the two stories, isn't there? The two hour Dynasty/Dynasty II: The Colbys premiere aired the other night. Between the two Dynasty programs are twenty-five major characters. The characters will be appearing on each show, in regular or guest roles. Just for information, the set of Dynasty II is said to be the most expensive set in television history. And finally, some short reviews of new shows: The Golden Girls(NBC): A show about four retired women in Miami, it's a comedy if you.enjoy four old women spending half an hour insulting one another. 227(NBC): A show about a black tenement in Washington, it's a comedy if you enjoy watching lower-middle- class people insulting one another. The Insiders(ABC): An obvious Miami Vice ripoff, it's got the music but not the style. Macgyver(ABC): A show about an intelligent secret agent, it's rather good. Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow. CASINO NIGHT! Casino Night is an event here at Western that is held twice a year. It is sponsored by Last Minute Productions.
