Carolyn's Critique By Carolyn Williams "The Guardian"- Starring: Martin Sheen and Lou Gosset Jr. Rated R. Picture a building in New York City. Crimes are occurring at an alarming rate, until finally a man is murdered. What do you do? Well, the tenants of this build- ing hire a security guard. He is a retired army officer who says he likes the challenge of cleaning up crime. He installs many security devices and takes control of the building. Some of the tenants resent the intrusion in their lives. Each of their complaints is met with a crime that the guard stops and tenants begin to think of him as a hero. But not all do. One man, Martin Sheen, believes that the guard is setting up the crimes to make himself indispensable. Is this true or not? You'll have to see the movie to find out. This movie is a good example of suspense and drama without the normally required slice and dice scenes. It moves along at a pretty good pace and stays true to the theme of the movie, the lesser of two evils. One interesting note: over half of the cast are Canadian actors. a I give this move a 5-1/2. "Lambada"- Starring J. Eddie Peck, Melora Hardin. Rated PG. A high school teacher, Peck, from Beverly Hills, goes down- town to a poor area to a dance club each night. He uses his dance ability to persuade the kids to go to a school (Galaxy High), that he has set up in the back of the club. His cover is blown when one of the Beverly Hills students sees him. She misinterprets. because she only sees him dancing. She thinks he is wild and tries to seduce him even though he is married. Many more misunderstandings occur between most of the people in the film and finally a fight breaks out between the Beverly Hills students and the students of Galaxy High. Peck is fired, but the Beverly Classifieds 25 words or less 1 week...$3.50 2 weeks...$6.00 4 weeks...$10.00 AVON Do you like meeting new people? Earning extra income?

There is a contest between the two schools to prove whether he real- ly did teach them or not. Who wins? I think you can probably guess that one already. The ending has two groups of kids hugging and shaking hands and then everyone dances togeth- er. This movie makes for enter- tainment when their is absolutely nothing on T.V. The ending is too Hollywood cutesy-pie. Believe me, this is not real life. It might be good though if you were trying to teach your kids about the importance of a good education. Don't let the title fool you though. There is definitely noth- ing in the movie about the Lambada, except for a couple dance numbers at the club. I give this movie a 2-1/2, maybe a 3 if you go for the edu- cational level. Confederation College Survey Confederation College in Thunder Bay recently conducted a community survey to help resi- dents get a better understanding of themselves and their communi- ty. From May 7- 10th, a random survey of 441 Thunder Bay adults, aged 18 and over, was conducted by phone. Based on the size of the sample, results the results may be considered accu- rate within 4.7 percentage points, 19 times out of 20. Thunder Bay adults participat- ing in the survey were asked to identify what, in their opinion, was the greatest problem current- ly facing the country. Government, national unity, and the economy emerged as issues of greatest concern. Eighty percent of those inter- viewed felt that a blue box recy- cling program should be imple- mented in Thunder Bay. Twelve percent disagreed and 7 even per- cent were undecided. The community seems to be split on its support for Sunday shopping. Fifty-one percent of those interviewed agreed with Sunday shopping, 42 percent dis- agreed and eight percent remain undecided. Almost three quarters (74 per- cent) of those interviewed were After being out of print for more than 10 years, noted ship- wrecks expert Julius F. Wolff Jr.'s Lake Superior Shipwrecks has been reissued. Long considered the definitive work on Lake Superior's hundreds of ship- wrecks, the work has been expanded to nearly 300 pages and contains more than 200 historic photos of ships and shipwrecks. Four years in the works. the new Lake Superior Shipwrecks con- tains references to more than 1,700 ships involved in accidents and maritime incidents on Lake Superior. Lake Superior Shipwrecks documents all the disasters and accidents occurring since com- mercial shipping began on this greatest of Great Lakes. The nar- rative is complete through the end of the 1980's and includes refer- ences from the earliest records of lake traffic to the loss of the Coast Guard cutter Mesquite in December 1989. It also includes the complete story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Lake Superior's most famous shipwreck. opposed to the proposed Goods and Services Tax. Thirteen per- cent supported it, while thirteen percent remain undecided. Perhaps the least understood of all issues included in the sur- vey was no-fault automobile insurance. This is reflected by the relatively high number of par- ticipants who were undecided (30 percent). Forty five percent were opposed to the proposed legisla- , tion. Twenty-sic percent were in favor. From a regional perspective, unemployment was identified as the greatest problem facing Northwestern Ontario. The econ- |, omy, isolation, and the perceived |: lack of government concern were | : also frequently named. _This project is an initiative of |! Division of. the Business Confederation College. Approximately 220,000 words comprise the detailed text of the volume, which also includes an index to ships listed, footnoted chapters and a detailed bibliogra- phy. A glossary of terms also accompanies the text. Numerous illustrations and charts are includ- ed to help locate the wrecks of the lake. Dr. Julius F. Wolff Jr. began his 30-year study of shipwrecks quite by accident, while doing research for his doctorate with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. The Department of History at the University of Minnesota, Duluth needed a fac- ulty member to lecture on ship- . ping problems along the wild and forested north shore. Dr. Wolff was asked to handle the assign- ment. Soon after, the Graduate School, discovering that ship accidents on Lake Superior had never been explored by the Minnesota faculty, designated him to conduct research on a part- time basis. That has led to his momentous career and expertise in the field of shipwrecks. After more than four years of additional research, rewriting, expansion and reorganization, this new work is being published as a joint effort of Lake Superior Magazine and the Lake Superior Marine Museum Association. This is an important addition to the body of work surrounding Lake Superior. The publication has already drawn much attention around the United States from diving interests, historians and the general public. "Anybody who lives by the lake, travels the shore or cruises on its water will relish having this book, because it brings the past alive wherever you go," Says Donn Larson, a boater and adver- tising executive from Duluth.
