But they're engaging characters, all of them, and when the slip comes you're almost sorry. The film is rated PG not especially good fare for youngsters.

They like Casey and Harry, Monday, November 5 technical ability. Its a shame Chicagodoesn't utilize his abilities more. I must admit that I was impressed with Peter Cetera. I had always catorized him as more of a SierSy'oSi- His bass work was great driv ing to peaks of soul sound.

Cetera's playing was great, but, his singing was better. His high, aimost scat-singing voice goes well with the Chicago sound. (I still like Terry Kath better.) The rest of the band was great too especially the "brass section." Their playing was technically good and they managed to stay in tune and not overblow, which is a trick that such bands as Chase has never managed to learn. two ty-gripes about Chicago's set the selection of numbers and the fact the set was too short. Lcan't blame Chicago for play- ing a short set with only one encore it was the crowd's fault.

They hasselled Chicago for tuning To me this is unbelievable. After all, Chicago was only trying to present their consumers with the best product possible. Local rock fans beware you're only going to get what you deserve. If you keep showing your stupidity (like harassing a band for tuning up) before long the only bands you'll get to hear are stupid ones like Madura. eVe You can see how he does it in "Harry In Your Pocket" which opened Sunday at the Martin Theatre, It runs through Tuesday ingm.

Harry is James Coburn, an. actor who'd been plying his trade skillfully but with little notice for years until someone labeled him "Our- Man Flint" and gave him sex appeal. His colleague, Casey, is Walter Pidgeon. The debonaire, cocaineesniffing nnember of the team of professional pickpockets serves as the steerer, Jiis job is to spot victims and locate the pbckel in which they keep their wallets, And he's the best in the business. The other two members of the team, called a wire mob in pickpocket slang are Michael Sarra-zin (Ray) and Trish VanDevere (Sandy).

They're young and green, but they 're eager to learn. And Harry and Casey are just the men toteacjh. them. They live well-stay in posh hotels eat in the classiest restaurants, wear the finest clothes and they put in an eight-hour-day on the streets stealing. Ray and Sandy are a pair.

They go together. Harry would really have Sandy alone, but since he can't he'll settle for the two of WSM-TV WLACTV WSIX-TV WDCN-TV Channel 4 Channel 3 Channel 8 Channel 2 555" Dragnet Sesame Street 30 NBC News CBS News News 600 Scene et Six News Beat the dock 30 To Tell the Truth Treasure Hunt Metro School News 700" LotsaUck Gunsmoke The Rookies Newport Jon Festival 30 Diana 800 Movie: Here's Lucy NFL: Washington Times Lost Children 3Q "Yours, Mine and Ours" Caroll O'Connor Special Redskins Nashville Perspective Pittsburgh Steelers The Gorden Show 30 Book Beat A 00 News News I 30 The Tonight Show Sonny and Cher 1.1 00 Comedy Hour News I 30 Movie College Football 73 1 A 00 Tomorrow "Glass Bottom Boat" I 30 1 1 1 Tuesday, November 6 si but they know that someday they'll be on their own.

Produced and directed by Bruce Geller, who is responsible for "Mission Impossible" and "Manix" on television, the film is slick, fast-paced, and entertaining. It's an engrossing look at what -Gellerias Galled the "omni-present phenomenon in the world of crime."

Too often a concert-goer ex--.

pects too much of a rock band. I suppose this is what happened to me Saturday night. Chicago was good, but the seven-man band wasn't as good as it should or could have been. Part of the problem was the difficulty everyone had getting in MTSU's Murphy Center. For example, I didn't get inside until after 8 p.m.

the "posted" starting time of the show. This doesn't sound too bad until you consider the fact that there was lets of people behind me. Really the standing-in-line bit didn't bother me that much, but Madura did. Without a doubt, Madura, is the worst front group I have ever heard at a concert. Thy were so bad that people even rock music lovers were stopping up their ears with cotton, kleenex or anything else they could find.

A "great" feature of the band was its front man who allegedly played a mini-synthesizer. Although the people in attendance at Saturday night's concert would never know it, a synthesizer can be used as an instrument of great musical versitility. Such diverse musicians as Keith Emerson, Stevie Wonder and Pete Totonshed use-electronic-music sources very beautifully. Madura's synthesizer player was an exception to this I could have gotten more enjoyment out of listening to someone ring a doorbell for an hour. '1 vith a tront group like Madura.

the members of Chicago had their -work cut out for'them. After considering all the factors, Chicago performed admirably The band got off to a bad start with their first two numbers, which should have been stuck in middle of their set. Any band, no matter how good they- are, needs to start their show Avhat what the old jazz men used to call a "jump tune." (Part of having a successful concert is getting the audience fired up, long instrumental numbers early in a set-tend to discourage concert-goers.) Another thing I was disappointed in was the fact the band didn't "unleash" lead guitarist Terry Kath more. To me Terry Kath is Chicago! His voice, even though ittias great range, is very down-to-earth (and powerful). Kath's guitar work has tremendous drive due to his great Backpackers YELLOWSTONE PARK, Wyo.

(UPI)- Yellowstone National Park is experiencing a record number of backpackers this year, according to Chief Ranger Harold J. Estey. The park staff estimated in the late 1960s that only about 6,500 people a year ventured away from park roads, but by 1972 the count had soared to more than 55,000 each year. Ten years ago the backpacker had the wilderness pretty much to himself but now restrictions have been imposed.
