questio

What does the Fourth o f Ju ly mean to you? The freedom we have in this country, even though there are a lot of problems. — Ray Plagge Owner, Montpelier Stove & Flag Works

Primarily, the price we’ve paid to live here, and the friends or loved ones who’ve left us. — Joe Johnston Owner, Utopia Sign Company St. Albans Bay

John Brumsted, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Fletcher Allen Health Care, says in your June 20 issue [Weekly Mail] that he regrets your readers were misled by a quotation I cited from Psychiatric News, which he says was “in error,” and was in the process of being corrected with that publication. The fact is that the quotation has been verified by Psychiatric News (the official publication of the American Psychiatric Association), which has a tran script of the interview. It verifies both the quotation and the con text: that while Dr. Brumsted denied a “gag order” prohibiting the psychiatric faculty from speak ing out against the relocation of mental health off of the main hos pital campus, he did also say that someone who spoke out against the hospital’s mission would be considered insubordinate... If anyone is being taken in by the statements from Fletcher Allen denying the constraints on the psychiatric faculty in defend ing the welfare of its patients, and denying that it is actively manipu lating facts to discriminate against consumers of mental health ser-

vices by a relocation which will provide second-class quality of services, then Dr. Brumsteds attempt to use these columns to deny his own quotation is a good place to start learning the truth.

The birthday of my country. I’m particularly attached to the philoso phy of the founders.

Including Hetty [Green] in such prestigious company as President Coolidge and Dorothy Fisher cer tainly adds to the credibility of her contributions. My large audience, which remained through a brief rain, was delightful, their questions engag ing, and several stayed to chat afterwards. I always learn some thing each time I perform as Hetty. Once again, thank you for capturing the essence of our his torical reenactments.

Just Deserts Make a Joyful Noise, but Quietly

During the ninth inning of a baseball game between Kansas City and Cleveland, Michael Orschlin, 22, jumped over the railing in the bleachers at Kauffman Stadium and onto the playing field. When he landed he broke his ankle, requiring that play be stopped for about 15 minutes while he was strapped to a stretcher and carried away. He also faces a $1000 fine for trespassing.

Find One, Get One Free When Seattle police arrived to investigate reports of a suspi cious-looking man checking out cars and houses, the man, in his twenties, jumped into a pickup truck and led officers on a chase through the neighborhood before driving off a boat ramp into Salmon Bay. While recover ing the pickup, police divers found a car in the water that had previously been reported stolen.

Egypt’s Ministry of Religious Endowments announced that noise inspectors have begun monitoring mosques and are cracking down on those that use loudspeakers for more than just calls to prayer. “The loudspeak er is for informing people of the call to prayer. It is not for read ing prayers and the Koran,” ministry spokesperson Adel Megahed said. “The random use of the loudspeaker conflicts with the lives of people and with religion itself.”

Weighty Matters A British court ordered Andrew Baldry, 32, to perform 180 hours of community service for doing a belly flop on Christopher Purvis, a coworker at a pork-processing plant in Beccles. Purvis, who is 5-feet-8 and weighs 140 pounds, said three other workers held him down while the 6-foot-2, 320pound Baldry leaped onto him. • Austria’s interior ministry issued new guidelines entitling police officers to be paid more

Since her Social Security check was sent directly to the Housing Authority to cover her rent, no one noticed that she wasn’t liv ing in her apartment until her

body was found in the Harlem # River. Police identified her body and found Perez living in her residence. They initially charged him with criminal trespassing, so instead of returning to Drakeford’s apartment, he and an accomplice strangled another man in the apartment building and took his apartment. A resi dent who overheard Perez brag ging that he had managed to get an apartment in the complex called police, who arrived to find Perez, the second man and the dismembered body of the second victim.

Chemical Blackmail Although 143 countries agreed to ban chemical weapons, Nikolai Bezborodov, head of Russia’s delegation to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, warned that Russia needs foreign aid to be able to destroy its 40,000 tons of mustard and nerve gas and other poisons as scheduled. Former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev, who has been tour ing Europe seeking money to destroy Russia’s chemical weapons, insisted that unless the cash is forthcoming, the poorly guarded poisons might well wind up in the hands of terror ists and rogue nations.

A zookeeper with him advised removing his white ten nis shoes so the lizard didn’t mistake them for white rats, which make up his zoo diet. When Bronstein obliged, the Indonesian lizard, which has ser rated teeth designed for ripping flesh, clamped down on his foot and began thrashing around. After prying open the reptile’s mouth and escaping through a small feeding hole while the keeper distracted it, Bronstein required surgery to reattach sev ered tendons and rebuild a big toe. • The weekend after Dubravko Rajcevic, 46, was sentenced in Miami to two years in jail for stalking tennis star Martina Hingis, the lead prosecutor in the case, Christopher Calkin, 31, notified his office that he had begun a personal relationship with the 20-year-old Hingis. Rajcevic responded to the news by stating he considers himself the victim of a “dirty plot.” Defense attorney Frank Abrams asked the trial judge to throw out Rajcevic’s conviction and sentence, insisting the romantic development “calls into question the integrity of the entire judicial process.” ®

Charity chosen by DP staff Tracy, Brita & Jesse

am extremely proud to be an American, even though I had nothing to do with being born here, because I have been raised in a country that leads the world in damn near everything. The Fourth of July is my favorite holiday, because we have the freedom to get hammered, play with explo sives, ride personal watercraft and start a fight with an in-law over, say, volleyball or lawn darts. But too often we take these freedoms for granted. Freedom isn’t free, people. Except to Gen-Xers like myself who were born between wars.. Come on, guys, face it. Very few of our generation, other than those who joined the Peace Corps, have had to do a damn thing for the last 20 years except kick back and enjoy one rocking economy. Therefore, on this Fourth of July I would like to reflect not so much on how proud I am to be an American, but on how grateful. And not just because I live in a nation where you can stab your in-law in the thigh with a lawn dart at two in the afternoon and make bail before all the burgers are off the grill, as long as you have the cash for a decent lawyer. I’m going to list a few of the reasons I am grate ful. Please hum “America the Beautiful” as you read on. You could even place your right hand on your left breast and face a flag, if you have one handy. Flere we go: I am grateful that we have the finest health care in the world, provided you can afford it or are will ing to commit insurance fraud. I am grateful that America is the engine that powers the metaphorical car that is the world’s glob al economy, and that I’m sitting in fully air-condi tioned comfort. I understand that we produce most of the exhaust, and that the metaphorical car, a ’76 Lincoln with a rolled-back odometer, is sitting in the garage with the door closed. But that’s okay, because there’s plenty of room between the front bumper and the back wall for the rest of the world. I am grateful that I live in a society committed to civil rights that showers its minorities with cash and adulation — at least the ones that are entertain ing. Through our elegant, trickle-down economy, the less entertaining ones will eventually gain many of the same benefits reaped by those wealthy athletes and rap stars. The only drawback is, they’ll have to steal them. I’m grateful to be protected by the most power ful military the world has ever seen, because herein lies the key to our greatness. For more than half a century, we have been better than any nation on Earth at blowing things to smithereens — most recently in Puerto Rico. This is precisely why we celebrate Independence Day with explosives. Look around. We have no competition whatso ever. This is largely due to the relative incompetence of everyone else, although I guess the Europeans could be good at blowing things up if they would just cooperate and apply themselves. But they’ve got

us to do it for them, and thus have little incentive to learn. The rest of the world consists mainly of fanatics who love to kill people but aren’t any good at it. Let’s take a look at the Middle East — from a safe distance, of course. Fanatic Arabs are the world’s worst fighters and should give it up entirely. Sure, they’re fairly good at killing each other and at wast ing non-combatants. But they can’t take out an

Israeli soldier with a rocket launcher at point-blank range. So I’m going to take a moment to make a sug gestion for which they should be grateful. They badly need to modify the new technique demon strated recently by some guy who rolled a donkey cart full of dynamite towards an Israeli guard shack. The fanatic was shot, of course, and none of the sol diers were injured in the slightest. The fanatics should listen closely to what I am about to say. When I was 10, my friends and I were able to inflict a significant amount of struc tural damage to a vehicle by rolling an abandoned shopping cart filled with snow down the only hill in South Bend, Indiana. It missed the friends we were trying to ambush and went a little further into the parking lot than we had intended, result ing in what must have been a tremendous bill for a new quarterpanel on some doctor’s Jaguar. The obvious lesson is that the shopping carts work much better than donkey carts, though it may be difficult to find enough of them with wheels that don’t stick. These same fanatics would also do well to demand a refund for all the crap they bought from the Soviets during the Cold War, or at least try to trade it in for a little plutonium. Don’t worry; no one is likely to take any advice from me. We should all be grateful that fanatics, while possessing loads of blind courage, lack the necessary education and skills required to engage an enemy that fights back. As for the Israelis, they have become absolutely superb at killing both Arab soldiers and civilians. But let’s be serious. If we ever felt like it, we could take them out with a single, nuclear-tipped cruise missile. Which brings me to what I am most grateful for: that I don’t live in Africa or the Middle East — or even Europe, for that matter. Because we rule. And if you disagree, let’s just shoot it out right here and now. ®

ust a mile out of North Montpelier, you turn right off the paved thoroughfare onto a rutted, twisting, climbing dirt road that winds past a few dairy farms and occasional back-to-theland homesteads with glorious mountain views and stretches of dense forest. No signs are posted to guide the way, so after driving for five rugged miles you’re sur prised by a sudden, seemingly incongruous sight in the East Calais wilderness: a Mecca of cul ture called the Unadilla Theater. In a huge brown barn, the 17-year-old summer enterprise is the product of talent, ambition, perseverance, luck and chutzpah — qualities that might well be attributed to the Unadilla guru, Bill Blachly. At 77, he looks something like a lanky Norman Mailer, but his bailiwick is dram aturgy rather than prose. Along with the willowy Ann O ’Brien, 71, Blachly has operated the community theater since 1983 as something between a hobby and a business, bringing remarkably sophisticated plays and dazzlingly difficult musicals to central Vermont audiences hungry for art. From classics by Aristo phanes, Shakespeare or Chekhov to modern, edgy work by Alan Bennett or Tom Stoppard, the underdog Unadilla casts local actors willing to take a fearless approach to complex material. “That just typifies Bill,” O ’Brien suggests. “For him, nothing is impossible.” The couple lives in a white clapboard house a few yards away from the performance barn on

300 remote acres that Blachly first settled in the mid-1950s. The place was then the last dwelling on East Hill Road. Despite additional development in the intervening half-century, it is still far from so-called civiliza tion and not easy for the uniniti ated to locate. “I was thinking we should make bumper stickers that read, ‘Unadilla: Find It If You Can,”' O ’Brien muses, adding that signs they have put up to mark the route invariably come down due to theft or vandalism. Moreover, Unadilla doesn’t advertise, relying on word-of-mouth, the post office and, nowadays, the Internet. “We have a 10,000name mailing list and a Web site,” Blachly notes, explaining that these methods generally attract enough people for the theater to break even with a budget of $25,000 to $30,000 each year. “It makes a huge dif ference when you have your own place,” he says. “There’s no rent.” The seating capacity is 100 — or 120 if absolutely necessary — but Blachly and O ’Brien pre fer to keep the numbers down to avoid overcrowding. Eschewing the bureaucratic paperwork nec essary for grants and sponsor ships, the endeavor remains strictly shoestring. ‘Although it’s not a subsidized activity, we have been in the fortunate position of doing what we damn well want to do, getting close to wonderful playwrights like Shakespeare and Chekhov and feeling that, maybe, audiences have gotten something out of it all,” Blachly says.

n a muggy Saturday afternoon the first week of the season, everyone is abuzz with antici pation about the evening show, but also laid-back, rural-style. While O ’Brien prepares an early dinner, Blachly ambles next door to fix a problematic toilet in the men’s room. His granddaughter, Sophie Bielenberg, bakes cookies to sell at the Unadilla concession stand during intermission. Blessed with tons of adolescent energy, the 14-year-old puts the dough in the oven, grabs a small timer set to go off in 10 minutes, and heads out to “read lines” with a fellow actress. A baby when she made her stage debut, Sophie appears in both of the current productions, Trial by Jury and Pirates o f Pen zance. In fact, the Gilbert and Sullivan double bill features three maternal generations: Sophie’s younger sister, Heidi Bielenberg, 12; their mother, Ellie Blachly, 38; and grandmother Alice Blachly, long divorced from Bill but still a thespian in his theatri cal troupe. Two O ’Brien grand-daugh ters, ages 8 and 12, soon will be visiting from Massachusetts for a

week that’s sure to involve behind-the-scenes efforts. “We depend heavily on child labor,” Ann O ’Brien quips. Unadilla has always been a family affair — Blachly s son Tom, now 44, frequently partici pated — so show biz is in the Blachly blood. Asked what it’s like to grow up in this smell-ofgreasepaint, roar-of-the-crowd tradition, Sophie smiles. “It’s nice having people applaud for you. You feel like you’ve done some thing important. A lot of kids don’t have anybody applauding for them. It helps me at school — I know how to stand up and speak in public — and it helps me with my memory.” Blachly himself found such inspiration early in life. “I went to a boys’ camp near Wilming ton,” he recalls. “T hat’s where I became interested in Vermont, in agriculture and in theater. We did Gilbert and Sullivan. I was a big theater buff when I was Sophie’s age and living in New York in the late 1930s and 1940s. You could see the Lunts and the Barrymores on Broadway. It was a vibrant time.” After a four-year stint in the

U.S. Navy during World War II, Blachly attended Oberlin College in Ohio. In 1955, he relocated to Calais with the romantic dream of dairy farming — it became a reality five years later when he purchased 10 Jerseys. “In those days, everyone around here farmed with a horse,” he explains. “There were no tractors. We were the first family ever not to use oxen. There was no electricity or tele phone service anywhere in this area. In the winter, we used to take the milk down the road on a horse-drawn sled and leave it in a snow bank for the Cabot Creamery to pick up.” After a decade of cows, Blachly switched to sheep, but also held down a succession of day jobs: He left Vermont for a while, returned to work as assis tant admissions director at Goddard College in nearby Plainfield during the early 1960s, served in the state legislature for a year, became a political stringer for five Vermont newspapers, and taught at a private Marshfield school. Somewhere along the line, the footlights beckoned again, and he followed.

From classics by Aristophanes, Shakespeare or Chekhov to modern, edgy work by Alan Bennett or Tom Stoppard, the underdog Unadilla casts local actors willing to take a fearless approach to complex material.

STAGE HANDY Bill Blachly and Ann O’Brien “I had this notion of doing repertory,” Blachly says. “I start ed directing five shows a summer at the Plainfield Town Hall, which was tricky because it didn’t really meet fire codes. In iL98‘2 jsf we used Spaulding High School in Montpelier, but that was not a good space. I had put a stage in the barn for rehearsals, and at the end of the season I suggested that’s where we could do our per formances. The actors were very dubious; they thought nobody would come all the way up here.” As a test, they put on a September production of Anton Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya in the barn. That night, the cast scanned the road for headlights. “First came one, then another, then another, and pretty soon we had a packed house,” Blachly remembers. “When one character says, ‘It’s already September. How are we going to survive the win ter?’ the audience went wild.” Thereafter, it was a done deal. Sophie’s father, Carl Bielenberg, constructed long wooden bench es padded with fabric-covered foam rubber. A 24-by-30-foot stage is on the lower level, and a catacomb of dressing rooms inhabits the former hayloft of a second floor. The ceiling has a rounded shape that looks part Quonset hut, part cathedral. The entrance is a metal arch, with a concession booth on one side and the box office on the other. They just called it “the the ater” until Blachly appropriated the name of an upstate New York manufacturer, the Unadilla Silo Company, that was stenciled on the rafters. W hen it came to crea ture comforts, he was content to

tell theatergoers, “Ladies 100 acres to the left, gents 100 acres to the right,” but state officials saw it differently. “They closed us down until we agreed to put in . Port-o-lets,” he says. “Later, we ' had to provide toilets with plumbing. Two years ago, they didn’t like our wiring, so we had to spend $6000 to upgrade that.”

efore the start o f the first full season in East Calais, Blachly met O ’Brien at “some Polish movie” at the Savoy Theater. “He asked me to go with him to the Shaw Festival in Niagara,” she says of her first hint that Blachly was a man with theatrical and romantic intentions. O ’Brien is a mother of four, including John, the filmmaker behind the popu lar M an W ith a Plan —- which starred Blachly as the nefarious politician running against a goofy but heroic Fred Tuttle. Ann O ’Brien played his wife. A Brooklyn native, O ’Brien also had raised a family in Vermont since the mid-1950s. She and her late husband Bob “were sort of the hippies of the time,” she says. They borrowed $600 to buy an abandoned Tunbridge farm, where John, now 38, still lives and tends sheep. Together Blachly and O ’Brien, a non-actor who prefers to be “the girl Friday,” embarked on a whirlwind o f stagecraft that transformed their quiet rural hamlet into a slighdy less-quiet rural hamlet for two months each summer. In the beginning, some neighbors had qualms. “At our Act 250 permit hearing, one

woman said she prayed a lot and was afraid the increased traffic would interfere,” Blachly recalls. “Another person was worried the lead from the car exhaust would settle on her vegetables and her , children would turn out feeble minded.” Those concerns aside, things were going so well that by 1986 Unadilla became an Equity * venue, recruiting professional performers from New York City. “In our naivete, we thought we might get better actors with more time for rehearsal,” Blachly says. “One of the'problems with com munity theater is that people in the cast have jobs.” The arrangement had many benefits. For one thing, Blachly was able to recruit black actors — hard to find in Vermont — for a run of dramas by South African playwright Athol Fugard. The downside was that Equity members must be paid $100 per week, plus room and board. Unadilla had to hire a cook to feed them all, build small cot tages to give them shelter and loan them vehicles to get around. “One of the actors rolled my car over,” Blachly says. “But the worst part was that they only have to give you 72 hours notice if they find better offers. So, one year we had three who took off at the same time, leaving us in the lurch.” The best thing to emerge from the Equity experiment was Paula Plum, an actress Blachly auditioned in Boston. The versa tile comedienne returned year after year, often adding her onewoman shows to the Unadilla repertoire; between 1995 and

1998, for example, she presented Plum Pudding, Plum Crazy, A Plum Potpourri and Plum Delight. In 1997, Blachly and O ’Brien were feeling confident enough to spread their wings. In addition to a full season of five plays — including Macbeth and The Cherry Orchard— in East Calais, they mounted four big musicals, such as Guys and Dolls, at the Barre Opera House. “It was sen sational,” he insists, as O ’Brien and Sophie nod in agreement. “We had a 30-piece orchestra. The only problem was that it was sweltering, and the opera house had no air conditioning then.” This already mind-boggling workload was further complicat ed by the fact that, from the late 1980s until just three years ago, Unadilla operated a restaurant for theater patrons in a converted garage at their home, with an institutional kitchen in the next room. “I was the cook,” Blachly says. “We had no menu, just one dish a night. It was a way to accommodate people who came considerable distances when there was no other place to eat any where around us.” “It was completely insane,” O ’Brien acknowledges. “I never knew where I was.” Anyone feeling too sorry for them might consider that Blachly and O ’Brien lead a fairly charmed existence. “For 25 years, I’ve owned a 30-foot catamaran,” he says. “We used to take people sailing in the Bahamas all winter, which would leave us a nice nest egg in the spring. We no longer do that as a business, just for fun.”

2001

Fun and obsession go hand in hand with the couple’s passion for theater from the end of June until Labor Day. The 2000 and 2001 seasons were scaled back — three shows that alternate throughout the summer, instead of the usual five — to allow for some renovations. Unadilla has an aura of enchantment that draws enthusi astic audiences. “It’s quaint, rus tic and homey,” observes Alice Cruess, who’s been making a reg ular half-hour trek to East Calais for about five years with her equally theater-mad husband Bill. “If it’s live, we’re there,” says Bill, assistant headmaster at St. Johnsbury Academy. Every Wednesday, the school sends two vanloads of visiting teachers from all over the world to see whichev er show is on tap. Beth and Paul Wade of Shirley, Massachusetts, have been Unadilla fans for almost 10 years. It’s a short hop from their camp in Cabot, where they spend get away weekends. “We’ve seen some really great plays here,” Beth vows. “I like the more off beat ones, the unpredictable stuff. Not usually the musicals.” Nonetheless, mid-way through an exuberant perform ance of the century-old Trial by Jury, she leans over to whisper: , “Two thumbs up!” “W ith a cast o f thousands,” jokes Paul Wade. T hat’s barely an exaggeration. ~ The tiny stage is brimming with singers — 43 o f them, to be exact — belting out the witty

Surrounded by mini mal sets and dressed in colorful period costumes, they are aglow in the mastery of their art. Since dispensing with the out-of-town professionals, except Paula Plum, a few years ago, Blachly has put faith in the teachers, lawyers, social workers, state government employees, appliance salesmen, farmers, computer consultants and artists who continue to comprise the Unadilla talent pool. “We find plays that fit the available actors,” he explains. In this instance, the company fits the program beautifully. When the curtain goes up on Pirates o f Penzance, Ellie Blachly is mesmerizing in the lead female

Culture ,A Sweeney Tod i t . victim” makes the cut By Alexia Brue cting can be murder. O r so I discovered in the Lost Nation production of Sweeney Todd, a.k.a. the “demon barber” of Fleet Street. I was an “extra” -— as in disposable corpse, a walk-on-slide-off opportunity. Backstage on death row, suffering from pre-cameo jitters, I rushed over to Kim Bent, co-director of Lost Nation Theater, and whis pered, “W hat’s my cue again?” He replied, indulgently, “The person who gets killed before you

will exit stage left and then you go on.” “Right, got it, thanks.” “And remember, keep your hands in your lap, don’t sit up and don’t bend your knees,” he reminded me. “You’ll be great.” I noticed that he didn’t say “break a leg,” this reserved for people about to perform arias or balcony love scenes, not people about to risk life and limb with complicated and dangerous stunts. And you don’t say “break a leg” to someone who has only just signed a waiver stating: “I

“immediately obvious.” My maroon bow tie might get caught in the chair, thereby strangling me on my way down. The stage hands might be off having a ciga rette and forget to catch me. Maybe Sweeney Todd misplaced his dull stage blade and had sub stituted an X-acto knife at the last minute. Tim Tavcar, director of the LNT production of Sweeney Todd, dreamt up the guest-victim cameo concept as both a fundraising idea and as a way to let wannabe thespians rub shoul ders with theater professionals. Fifty dollars buys you, or some one you want to roast, an appear ance in Stephen Sondheims dark musical comedy, which runs through July 15 at the M ont pelier City Hall Arts Center. This gory morality tale is the story of a “naive barber and his virtuous wife” destroyed by a wicked judge who covets the wife and so exiles the barber to Australia on trumped-up charges. Sixteen years later the barber, who renames himself Sweeney Todd, returns to London to reunite his family and to get his revenge on the judge. The reunion is impossible for various reasons, and Sweeney focuses all his energies on vigilante justice, unleashing his barbers blade on the guilty and innocent alike. The guest victim is one of the many innocents, and that’s how I intended to play it. During my rehearsal, I had

repeated Bent’s mantra on trap door etiquette: Keep your hands in your lap, don’t sit up and don’t bend your knees. I had practiced falling through a trapdoor and down an eight-foot slide into the arms of three stagehands. I had “passed” my stunt class, but that

slid the blade across the unsus pecting customers throat, spun the barber chair around and unceremoniously pulled a lever on the chair. Victim #1 fell through a trap door like yester day’s garbage. Now, mind you, Victim #1 is

and whoever else makes the mis take of visiting Sweeney Todd for a shave. The cannibalistic plot is hatched during the best song of the show, a duet called “A Little Priest.” Mrs. Lovett sings, “The trouble with poet is how do you

The first victim passed stage left and gave me my cue. You’re it.” he whispered. “ Have fun.” didn’t mean I wasn’t terrified each time. Bent told me to feel free to ham it up as I assumed my seat on the barber’s sacrificial altar. I hadn’t acted since second grade, when I was an extra in the Andy Williams Christmas Special. “Acting” is something I only know how to do in real life. I returned to stage left and peered through a crack in the black curtains as the entire cast sang a boisterous ensemble piece called “God That’s Good!” The raucous banquet scene — in which the cast clamors for more of Mrs. Lovett’s newly delicious pies — ushers in Sweeney’s throat-slitting spree. Because, you see, the secret ingredient of Mrs. Lovett’s pies is not, as she claims, “a spot of coriander,” but rather tender morsels of priest and poet

a professional actor and a mem ber of the ensemble cast. As a professional, he made it look easy. Fun, even. I stopped think ing about non-obvious risks; I couldn’t wait to get on stage. The first victim passed stage left and gave me my cue. “You’re it,” he whispered. “Have fun.” I sauntered onstage affecting a casual gait and climbed the stairs that curve up to Sweeney’s second-story barber shop. Whoops, I forgot to ring the bell like Victim #1.1 touched my cheeks and fingered the mustache painted on in brown eyeliner. I soon realized that any attempt to act like a man weighing his tonsorial options was futile. Being onstage wasn’t like walking into a room where you take in your surroundings, notice

know it’s deceased? Try the priest.” Sweeney Todd, in a rare good mood, says, “I prefer general.” “With or without his pri vates? With is extra,” replies Mrs. Lovett. Death and dismemberment have never rhymed so well or been so witty. From my hiding space, I watched the flawless performance of Victim #1. He rang the shop’s bell, bounded up the stairs like he didn’t have a care in the world, and reclined in Sweeney’s high-backed barber-cum-cxecutioner chair. Sweeney absentmindedly tied a bib around his neck and began to shave the poor sod while singing a mournful song about his long-lost daughter Johanna. Then, whoosh, Sweeney

where the furniture is and who else is present. I was aware o f my own heart beating and my desire hot to trip on the stairs. I was aware of huge floodlights blind ing me and casting a curtain of darkness over the audience. Did I look as terrified as I felt? I sat in the chair and stared out into the blackness of the audience. I felt like one of those ill-at-ease ama teurs you sometimes see on TV, the ones who don’t know where to look. Sweeney was all around me, wrapping a bib around my neck and singing something about his ~ daughter. I could see his ocingeand-brown stage makeup punc tuated by beads of perspiration, and I could hear his sonorous voice right in my ear, though I had no idea what he was saying. It was delightful, as if he were singing me my own personal lull aby. I wished I didn’t have to die. After what couldn’t have been more than 20 seconds, the barber tilted my head back and grazed my neck with a stage knife. Now was the time for real acting. I slumped down and let my body go limp in some approximation of a sudden, violent death. During rehearsal, the gentle and patient Michael Kreutz, who plays Sweeney Todd, would ask before pulling the lever, “Are you ready? Okay, here we go.” But now he was Sweeney Todd, and

W hy Not Pastels? — Burlington Police Chief Alana Ennis (yes,

she’s still here and keeping a very low profile), gave Seven Days her “final answer” Monday on whether or not Burlington’s Finest will continue to drive all-white squad cars or revert to the old days of black-and-white cruisers. Chief Ennis’ final answer? Back to the future! The Chieftess of Burlap said she’s decided to go with a tradi tional black-and-white paint job with large “Burlington Police” let tering on the side doors. The new cop car colors will be phased in as the department replace" its fleet. Chief Ennis told Seven Days her old department in North Carolina had black-and-white cruisers. She said she finds it “aes thetically pleasing.” Excuse me? As goes North Carolina, so goes Vermont? The People’s Republic of Burlington is a colorful, cuttingedge town of the 21st century. Just look at our buses. There’s no reason why our cops should drive around in old-fashioned LAPD style, a throwback to the macho cop TV shows of the 1960s. If that’s the desired look, why not add a machine gun turret (rubber bullets only)? If “aesthetics” is truly a consid eration, then we suggest City Arts be consulted. That’s what they’re there for. Time for out-of-the-box thinking, folks. How about an artist competition to pick the win ning color scheme for cop cars of the future? How about pink, lime green or orange? Stripes, polka dots, rainbows? Original art? There’s no end to the possibilities. C’mon police commission, time to step up to the palette! One-Adam-12, roger! W ar on Drugs Update — Good

news for local backers of the War on Drugs this week as pro-mari juana activist and UVM research scientist, Dr. Bob M elam ede, told Seven Days he’s blowing town next month lor a new gig in the Rocky Mountains. Dr. Bob is known to many through his Cannabis Cable Network program on public access TV. But don’t mistake Melamede for some stoned-out old hippie. He’s moving west to become the new chairman oi the biology department at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs. Melamede is a molecular immunologist of dis tinction, and he’s as serious about America’s flawed drug policy as he is about science. Back in 1994, Melamede ran for the U.S. Senate. The incum bent, then-Republican Jim Jeffords, won. Melamede recalled Tuesday that during that cam paign, Jeezum Jim “came out in favor of both medical marijuana and hemp production.” He said he’s glad Jeezum finally became an Independent. “The Democrats and Repub licans are whores,” said Dr. Bob. Melamede said he hopes to continue his public-access pro gram via an Internet connection. Until America’s crazy drug policy changes, the message will continue to be heard, he said. “All the things people say mar-

Correction — The new guy beef

ing up the distinguished editorial board of The Burlington Free Press is not a Duke alumnus, as we incorrectly reported here last week. Managing editor Geoff uevalt got his college diploma at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. Our apologies. Didn’t realize what a big deal it was until we were locking up our bicycle on College Street Monday as the paper’s distinguished food and kitty-cat columnist, Debbie Salom on, strolled by. Over the years, it’s been rare to get more than a meow out of the Debster, but Monday she unexpectedly strode over and leaned close. “I went to Duke,” informed Solomon with purring pride. Enough said. We got the impression Sir Geoff was decided ly lower on the academic food chain for having attended Chapel Hill. Speaking of Editorials — Last week we noted the addition of editorial wrier Nancy Bazilchuk and Mr. Gevalt to the editorial board. And we remarked favorably on the first batch of edits to merge from this new cabal. But the topper so far was last Thursday’s. It was written in what was later called an “allegorical” style. The editorial was posed as an e-mail to Tom WatSOn Jr., the man who led IBM into the com puter age. The edit urged Watson to personally step in and settle the ongoing turf battle between the Town of Essex and the Village of Essex Junction. The paper sug gested Mr. Watson publicly threaten to incorporate his 8000strong IBM facility in Essex Junction as a separate municipali ty! Surely that would get the feud ing parties to wake up. Cute. Unfortunately, the local daily has not and will not get a response from the scion of Big Blue. Why not? Tom Watson Jr. died on New Year’s Eve 1993. He was 79. Oops! The following day, in the small type of a page 2 correction, the Freeps acknowledged Mr. Watson’s passing. The editorial, it stated, “should have made clear that Watson died in 1993.” Hey, people die every day. It’s hard to keep up. M edia Notes — There are a cou ple of new faces on the everchanging local TV news scene. The new reporter at ABC22 is Jenny R izzo, a Buffalo, New York native and recent graduate of Ithaca College where she majored in broadcast journalism. WPTZ Ch. 3 News has added some local talent. Katrina Irwin grew up in Peru, New York. She studied broadcast journalism at Syracuse. And the “Headline of the Month” prize goes to the Freeps for its Sunday front page. “Monitor implanted in Cheney,” read the big type at the top of the page. Cool. Can Civil War buffs assume the Merrimack was implanted in Bush? @

I HOP, YOU HOP... Where I grew up, IH O P meant the International House of Pancakes. But in Burlington, it stands for a monthly hip-hop party at Club Metronome, hosted by the inimitable Fattie B. This Thursday, DJs Hedfonz and Craig Mitchell serve up breakbeats and house, respectively. Oh, and the recently released compilations Hop 3 and 4 will be available. Fattie, a.k.a. Kyle Thompson, is now accepting tracks for number 5. Don’t be shy. Speaking of Mitchell: He didn’t return phone calls to confirm this, but rumor has it the former Burlington singer and deejay got a gig doing a voice-over for Yankees short stop Derek Jeter for MTV. Specifically, for the network’s “Celebrity Deathmatch” feature. Nice work if you can get it.

more things to more people. “We re trying to open this place up to more of the community,” explains events manager Allison Davis. Toward that end, she says, there will be a monthly coffeehouse — Aaron Flinn unplugs this Sunday — as well as a monthly poetry slam, and the walls are avail able for local artists to show their two-dimensional wares. First up in the latter category is photographer Matthew Thorsen. If interested in performing or hanging, call Davis at 863-2343. Meanwhile, the award-winning stand-up comedian Emmy Gay — as seen on TV! — returns from New York to 135 Pearl this Saturday. From Harlem’s Apollo Theater to an inter national women’s conference in Beijing, Gay proves herself a damn funny feminist in any time zone.

DIFFERENT STROKES Burlington’s 135 Pearl is looking to diversify its entertainment portfolio. Long a pop ular dance club and H Q for several illustrious drag acts, it wants to be

ROCK BY ANY NAME Things are looking up at Waterbury’s Thirsty Turtle. In the kitchen, that is. The club has been improving its cuisine over the last year or so, and now,

under the influence of new co-owner and executive chef Mike Dulac, has gone Italian all the way. A former chef in Montpelier at Sarducci’s and J. Morgan’s, Dulac specializes in “from scratch” authentic dishes, from Seafood Festa to homemade pizza. W ith the help of chef Gino Barnes — and the addition of an outdoor deck — the Turtle is in danger of los ing its roadhouse reputation. In fact, even the name has changed: to Downtown Bistro at Thirsty Turtle Nightclub. Chances are, the place will still shake, rattle and roll after the diners go home, though. Case in point: Mirage this Friday and Saturday nights. DO GOOD DEPT. By the time you read this, the show will be sold out, as Phish-related events always are. (In fact it sold out in 40 minutes.) But for the record it should be noted that a special Fourth of July concert at Higher Ground with Trey Anastasio and his band — Tony Markellis, Russ Lawton, Dave Grippo, Jennifer Hartswick, Andy Moroz, Russell Remington and Ray Paczkowski — is a benefit. Sad to say, the show aims to shore up the South Burlington High School music program, which Grippo directs. Due to budget con straints, SBHS, like many a school these days, is in danger of getting the ax. Therefore, Trey is serving up some rock ’n’ roll to save the day. O f course, one concert can’t shim up the whole school, so chances are there will be more events like this, not to mention bake sales. Just keep it in

mind, boys and girls, when you are parents some day and spelling is the closest thing to culture your kids’ school offers. SINGLE TRACKS In case you didn’t recognize the name Brendan Devitt under Thursday’s listings, he’s a for mer Ninja Custodian and is perform ing at Radio Bean with fellow N C guitarist “magOO.” It’s more melodic, promises Devi t t . . . Turkey Bouillon Mafia have been packing Valencia lately, and are playing their last one for the summer there this Thursday. The groovers have also earned them selves an opening slot for Grippo Funk Band Friday at Higher Ground . . . Vermont’s number-one Latin DJ Hector Cobeo, a.k.a. El Salsero, takes to the waters this Friday, for a threehour cruise aboard the Spirit o f Ethan Allen II. Cha-cha-cha! . . . Congratulations are in order for: Former Club Toast co-owner and cur rent Rock It Science studio owner Justin Wygmans and his new bride Susan Weeks (now Wygmans); and Currently Nameless drummer Daemmon Hughes and Alison Signorino for the birth of their son, Maxwell Pepper Hughes, last month . . . O n the heels of a C D N O W ad campaign last m onth that used James Kochalka’s Monkey vs. Robot, the Burlington musician/cartoonist gets more ink in the Summer Music Special issue of Fader magazine, as well as a huge story in Sweden’s B ild & Bubba.

BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO, DOWN HOME LIVE! (Tomorrow Recordings, CD) — If you heard that a four-time Grammy nominee was playing locally, would you attend? W hat if you were told that he was known to perform with the likes o f U2, Eric Clapton, Stevie Wonder, Neil Young, Jimmy Buffett, Litde Richard and Robert Plant, and had appeared on Letterman, MTV and even in President Clinton’s inaugural cele brations? It’s hard to believe that such an artist would deign to play a club in little old Stowe, Vermont, but Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural, Jr. isn’t in this business for the fan fare. This master of zydeco — a Creole music born in southwest Louisiana — is undoubtedly the best-known individual in the genre. And while he hasn’t yet done for zydeco what Bob Marley did for reggae, he’s been converting the world one dance floor at a time. Listen to a single song and you’ll hear that he does it for the joy. Ostensibly, Buckwheat Zydeco are a band, but real istically they comprise Dural and a merry flock of rev elers. Buckwheat has been playing professionally since 1971, but it wasn’t until 1987 that his band hit the big time with Island Records. Decades and many labels later, Buckwheat Zydeco have finally released their first live album, appropriately tided Down Home Live! Recorded at El Sid O ’s club in Lafayette, Louisiana, it’s a recording that truly captures the energy and soul of zydeco music. Buckwheat leads the way on accordion, the Hammond B-3 organ and vocals. He is supported by a 1 0 -man ensemble on drums, guitar, bass guitar, rubboard, trumpet and saxophone. You’ll recognize covers like Fats Domino’s “Walking to New Orleans” and The Rolling Stones’ “Beast of Burden,” but the best stuff is in the originals. “Put It in the Pocket” is the best of the lot — a tight, rollicking party in a bottle. “Trouble” shows a lyrical kinship with the blues, but with a bit more bounce. “O ut On the Town” may inspire you to book reservations for Mardi Gras next spring. Curious to know whether my own bootie shaking was a learned or genetic trait, I played this disc for a 2 year-old and a 6 -year-old, neither of whom had heard that kind of music before. When they began to do the two-step around the kitchen, I could only conclude that zydeco is part o f our primeval makeup. Shake your own stuff this Saturday, as Buckwheat Zydeco play the Rusty Nail in Stowe. —

Nearly all these cuts qualify as indie-rock, a loose genre characterized by angst, hearts on sleeves, jangly and/or dirty guitars and melody. And where feel and^J personal expression take precedence over virtuosity and commercial viability. There really aren’t any out-andout duds on this record, but the tracks that most caught my hook-hungry ears include the Dinosaur Jr.esque “Carry,” a ’95 recording by the departed Huffy; the cleaned-up ’92 Guppyboy classic, “Fall,” the oldest track here; and the propulsive “Resignation Letter,” by Searles’ current outfit, The Also Rans. Other picks are the candy-floss Hover reunion track, “Yellow Clothes,” the slightly sluggish but hooky “Keep Away,” from Hover offspring Lucretia Crumb and ex-Guppyboy Mike Barrett’s track, “Sunday Comes” — a late-night pop nugget backed by an indie supergroup. And let’s not forget Colin Clary, the uncommon denominator who appears on five tracks here as well as three on Danger. He fronts the short-, lived Four Color Manual on the strong ’98 cut, “All the Factors Are In,” and contributes the wistful acoustic closer, “Five Record Players and a Projector” under his Part Time Losers moniker. Bringing things foil circle, this last one was recorded at Danger Studios. Kudos to music lovers Zacharis and Searles for issu ing these worthy but obscure recordings, and for keep ing the faith. There is and has been quire a bit of talent in this small pond. Do your part to keep it that way: Buy these discs and support local music. —

MY LIFE OR SOME DREAM? (Club Fub, compilation CD), and THE DANGER SESSIONS (Dangerfive Records, compilation CD) — Nationwide, venues dwindle and cut back on live music, radio playlists get shorter as formats become increasingly fragmented. Burlington is no exception to this trend, as local indie rockers and quirky singer-songwriters find it harder to reach an audience. Fortunately, an antidote is available. Two newly minted compilation CDs showcase a cou ple of overlapping slabs of the local scene, studded with diamonds in the rough (mixes). Both discs include new and vintage tracks, dating to the distant ’90s. David Zacharis is the man responsible for The Danger Sessions, a collection of tunes mosdy recorded at his migrant home studio over the last five or six years. This disc is a bit of a mixed bag, with song quality ranging from gem-like to nearly unlistenable, and sound quality from bad to OK. (Liner notes helpfully state: “The hiss means the song has started.”) But production is not really an issue here. Zacharis does a fine job showcasing the songs and personalities in clever, fun, lo-fi ways. The two Colin Clary cuts here are among the best. O n “360°” he croons, “Three hundred and sixty degrees on a road I couldn’t see, and the snow was in the trees” to a melodic synth-anddrum-machine track. On the much heavier, My Bloody Valentine-flavored “Space as Opposed to Light,” he sings, “It comes down to this, you don’t want my kiss/I can’t get you on the phone, you don’t exist.” Snappy stuff. Other memorable tracks include perennial goofball James Kochalka Superstar’s “Wood Glue,” which asks, “Would you wood glue me?”; the engaging instrumen tal “Theme from a Sunday Afternoon,” which sounds like a Beach Boys track sans vocals; and “Frisbee” — pumpin’ indie-rock from The Lucksmiths. Also worth mentioning: “Fire,” ambitious a cappella soul from Sue Norton, and the sleepy, Yo La Tengo-ish “???” by My First Days on Junk. M y Life or Some Dreamf Is the brainchild of Club Fub honcho Brad Searles. A former linchpin of the local scene who now lives in Boston, Searles has been releasing music and throwing parties under the Club Fub imprint for years. He also drums on six of the 15 tracks here. Generally better produced and more rock ing than Danger, M y Life brings to light classic, new and previously unheard tracks by former and current Burlington scenesters. It generally holds together quite well.

Jamboree isn't a dog show, nosirree. It’s an old-fashioned community hoo-ha with lots of music — including The Seth Yacovone Band, above — barbecue, raffle, flea market and all-ages fun. A good time and a good deed, too: Proceeds go to the Lamoille Family Center. At the Lamoille County Field Days this Sunday.

very gallery has a different identity, and it appears the one at Church and Maple will be a great addition to Burlington’s impressive list of visual art venues. It’s a spacious show room for finely crafted glass made right downstairs, and will also be producing monthly exhibitions by other visual artists of every medium. This month’s show, entitled “In Quarry; An Exhibition of Form and Intrigue,” features col lage and assemblage work by Anna Fugaro and several stone sculptures by Andy Arp and Timothy Waite, who also makes wood furniture. It’s a strong group show, and the airy room gives the sculpture room to breathe while accommo dating a substantial body of Fugaro’s small wall pieces in a nicely uncluttered way. The latter portion of the show comprises 20 framed works and another 14 unframed. While Fugaro’s iconography consists of fairly standard collage-assemblage fare — religious references, images borrowed from Renaissance art, 19thcentury tin types — her pieces are finely craft ed and for mally chal lenging. She creates unusual nar ratives that include

Arp’s p ie ce s are more totem ic, with a style that seem s related to Africaninspired European sculptural work of the early 20 th century.

statements about a range of issues as complex as her tightly knit compo sitions. “Upstairs, Downstairs” is an assemblage shal low in depth, like a shadowbox, featuring a farmhouse in the woods. The windows reveal tin type portraits of women imprisoned behind wire mesh. There’s a patriar chal fellow in the doorway, and beneath the house is a dark, tangled cavern of twisted roots, vines, bones and skulls. All this seems to indicate quite a dysfunctional household. A ladder leads from the house into the underworld, and the cavern is tinted in browns and greens. “War” is one of several Fugaro pieces dealing with societal rather than domestic violence. In a dark-

ened room, a young red-haired woman turns away from a broken window in which a World War II-era B-17 bomber seems to be plunging toward the earth. “Potato Baby” has a series of strange potatoes encircling the tinted portrait of a 19th-century child in cushy, gold-threaded sur roundings. It may be a statement about poverty, power and class referencing the potato famine. But regardless of its meaning, this is certainly an arresting juxtaposition of images. Another enigmatic icon-like piece is “Santos.” Fugaro has engineered a Dadaist portrait of a crowned saint by giving it a huge eye at the cen ter of its profile. Dimensionality is achieved by modeling the crown with subtle variations of value, and by giving the figure a Madonna’s paleblue dress surrounded by a crackled background of peach and pale orange. Arp and Waite each present three stone sculptures on pedestals — ele gantly graceful, polished marble and granite pieces — and their works are complementary. Waite’s “Journey,” chiseled from West Rutland marble, is a horizontal piece that captures wavy movement in the green grain of the stone, lending it the organic feel of an undulating form. Two strategically placed areas of negative space also seem to impel the work forward, from left to right, when viewed frontally. “Big Step” also has the illusion of being kinet ic. It is an abstraction based on the movement o f hips in full stride. Arp’s pieces are more totemic, with a style that seems related to Africaninspired European sculptural work of the early 20 th cen tury. “Woman” and “Progeny” are gently curved vertical pieces o f black marble that contrast areas o f rough ly hewn stone and sleek, polished surfaces. A par ticularly interesting curve is echoed in both pieces, giv ing them similar sil houettes along one side. “In Quarry” is Church & Maple’s first month-long show. The quality of this work sug gests the gallery has a bright future in the constellation of local visual art venues. 0

I suspect. So why isn’t anyone talking about Ridley Scott? Why the media isn’t is mystify ing. Why Spielberg isn’t is less so. With Blade Runner, Scott didn’t just do it first. He did it better. Not that Haley Joel Osment isn’t truly something as Spiel berg’s android boy programmed to love a human mother, who doesn’t have it in her to love him back. And not that there aren’t a hundred dazzling moments in his quest for her affection. The odyssey toward humanity takes him from his adoptive home to a forest haunted by aban doned robots and a Flesh Fair where “Mecca’-hating humans turn the destruction of outdat ed androids into a spectator sport and, finally, to Manhattan, submerged beneath an ocean swollen by the melting ice cap. And not that Jude Law isn’t entertaining as hell in the role of Gigolo Joe, a boy-toy who clicks TOY BOYS Law and Osment go looking for love in Spielberg’s his heels and cracks futuristic fairy tale. wise like a wind-up Gene Kelley in leather. It’s just that this whole machine-yearns-to-be-human thing has A.I.: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE*** been done to death already. It made for glitzy-butMuch is being made of the collaboration sappy silliness in the epically tedious Bicentennial between the late, great Stanley Kubrick and Steven Spielberg, who ultimately wrote and direct Man, and it makes for a story that seldom rises much above that level here.

green scene rench novelist Marcel Proust was not likely referring to the Middlebury Festival on the Green when he observed, “Only though art can we get outside ourselves.” But like anyone who appreciates an out-of-the-ordinary aesthetic, he would probably appreciate the opportunity to see art outside— period. With at least two shows per day, the week-long extravaganza turns Middlebury’s picturesque village green into performing arts central. On Sunday, the festival opens with Mountain Singing Camp, a troupe of teen-aged girls who first got together in 1997 at a summer session in Lincoln. Now they’re right at home delving into Appalachian, Sephardic, African and gospel tunes. Immediately following is Rumbafrica, a Boston-based dance band led by Tshibangu Kadima of Congo in authentic costumes from Africa. They play classic Congolese rumba and modern, uptempo souko'us. Monday features the family-friendly No Strings Marionette Company cooking up a “Green Peppers Brown Bag Special” with puppeteers Dan Baginski and Barbara Paulson. The evening also brings out new vaudevilleans Waldo and Woodhead, masters of juggling,

jokes and physical comedy. The closing act is Vermont singer-songwriter Louise Taylor offer ing a moody blend of Celtic blues. A Mummenschanz veteran makes an appearance on Tuesday — jest in case you need something to do at lunchtime. Later on, the Dick Forman Jazz Band comes forth later with mainstream, standards, swing, ballads and be-bop tunes. Look for Unknown Bluesman Paul Asbell on guitar. Then stick around for Brenga Astur — a nine-member ensemble that hails from the Asturias region of Spain but specializes in original Celtic numbers in the style of music from Scotland, Ireland, Brittany and Galicia. The music keeps on coming — catch the Austin Lounge Lizards, Laura Love Duo and Groovelily next week. M iddlebury Festival on the Green: Sunday through Saturday, July 8 to 14.

float worthy Vermonters may not “go down to the sea in ships,” to bor row an old biblical phrase, but they do enjoy heading over to the lake in canoes, kayaks and sailboats. The annual Small Boat Show exposes the facts behind the flotation, with boat-building demon strations, test cruises, races and a Duct Tape Regatta for kids. You can hear noted racing-yacht designer Olin Stephens spin a few yarns while he signs copies of his autobiography, All This and Sailing, Too. Or catch seafaring songs from local bands Wood’s Tea Company and Atlantic Crossing.

It’s the one day of the year that ferrets, rats, iguanas and even boa constrictors get the same respect as cats and dogs. “Wild and Wooly: Annual Pet Show” is a contest for critters of all stripes — if they are owned by children younger than 15, that is. Categories in the Fletcher Free Library event include cutest, strangest and smallest. To qualify, pets must be alive, possibly kicking, and neither human nor insect. That rules out Daddy and the tarantula, but otherwise beasts that meow, bark, bray, peep, squeak, oink or click are welcome. Pet Show: Tuesday, July 10. Battery Park, Burlington, 6 -8 p.m.* Free. Info, 865-7216.

way baaack when In 1840, the world’s first dental school opened in Baltimore, the moon was photographed by a pio neering astronomer, the word “OK” was coined and Vermont had 1.5 million sheep. Addison County, in fact, had more sheep than any other county in the nation. About 2000 of them lived at Rokeby, a prosperous Ferrisburgh farm that is now a museum. The annual Rokeby Wool Festival is a way of honoring that 19th-century “Golden Age” legacy, with sheep shearing, wool spinning and border collie demonstrations — but no tooth pulling or moon gazing. OK?

flying south If you’ve ever wondered about the Danaus plexipus, author Sue Halpern could be the go-to gal on the subject. Her book, Four Wings and a Prayer: Caught in the Mystery o f the Monarch Butterfly, chroni cles how these beautiful insects migrate from the Northeast to a just few specific sites in Mexico. Halpern, whose husband is fellow scribe Bill McKibben, also chats with an oddball assortment of experts, including a “cowboy entomologist” and a fellow resembling “Father Christmas” who snacks on bee pollen. A resident I of the Adirondacks, she crosses, the pond to read and r sign her non-fictional fusion of science, memoir and travel writing.

What’s your problem with cults, Ken? Why, just this spring, while writing a check, I said to myself, this money is going to fund religious zealots bent on subverting everything I hold dear. But I mailed in my income tax anyway. In any case, I don’t know that we want to call Richard James’ coreligionists a cult. Details about the group are scanty, and it’s possible they were just an exceptionally enthusiastic bunch of Episcopalians. Besides, it’s been more than 40 years since any Slinky money found its way into the organization’s coffers. During the 1950s, however, quite a bit did. Here’s as much of the story as I could piece together, based on conversations with Richard’s ex-wife, Betty, a remarkable woman who saved the Slinky company after her husband bailed. It all started in 1943, when Richard, an engineer at a Navy shipyard in Philadelphia, noticed a torsion spring fall off a table and wiggle when it hit the floor. In the metallurgical equivalent of Newton’s apple, Richard recognized a toy waiting to be born. Having succeeded in finding steel with the right combination of lightness and springiness — no small feat in wartime — he was ready to take his product to market by late 1945. Realizing that the key to selling the Slinky was showing it in action, he fabricated a display in which the toy walked down steps and persuaded the Philadelphia branch of Gimbel’s department store to let him give demonstra tions. Shoppers went nuts, and in 90 minutes Richard’s entire stock of 400 Slinkys had sold out. The thing was a hit at a toy fair the follow ing spring and soon had become a national phe nomenon. By the 1950s Richard was pretty flush. He and Betty lived with their growing family on a 1 2-acre estate near the suburb of Bryn Mawr on Philadelphia’s affluent Main Line. But he wasn’t content, and at some point got religion. Previous accounts have been vague on how this came about, and Betty herself doesn’t have a lot of specifics. She doesn’t know what religious organization Richard got hooked up with, only that it was an evangelical Christian sect that she termed a cult. Richard began consorting with what Betty considered dubious characters, made

sizable financial contributions, and testified at revival meetings. She attended one and found it mortifying. I asked Betty what had gotten into her husband. She said Slinky sales were slumping in the mid-’50s and that Richard, a charismatic man who had gotten used to being a big shot, liked the attention he got while confessing his sins. Wondering what kind of sins we were talking about, I asked: “Did Richard have, ah, personal issues that led to his religious conversions Yes, Betty said. He’d been a philanderer. She’d found out about it, they’d had discussions of the sort that usually ensue, but she’d stayed with him for the sake of their six children. Finally, in February 1960, Richard announced to Betty and their two eldest children that he was moving to Bolivia to work for his religious group. They could either sell the business or run it themselves; he was cutting all ties. By July he was gone. What exactly he did in Bolivia, Betty doesn’t know, although there’s no reason to think it was anything along the lines of Jim Jones in Guyana — more like a mission, from the sound of it. At one point she heard he was printing religious tracts, but she never saw him again. To provide for her family, Betty decided to keep the Slinky business going, but it was on the verge of bankruptcy. Richard had diverted the company’s resources to his religious interests and left millions of dollars in unpaid bills. Betty begged her creditors to be patient, and miraculously they all agreed. She wrangled a TV advertising deal, moved the Slinky plant to her hometown of Hollidaysburg in central Pennsylvania, and slowly put the compa ny back on its feet. Every so often she got accusatory letters from Richard urging her to repent. At one point he asked that she leave the children and join him in Bolivia. She never replied. In 1974 she heard that he had died of a heart attack, and that was that. Betty ran James Industries, as the Slinky company was official ly known, for nearly four decades. In 1998, with close to 300 million Slinkys sold, she sold out for a boatload of money to a Michigan company that promised to keep the Slinky plant and its 120-some jobs in Hollidaysburg. Your Slinky buck may have sup ported some dubious ventures prior to 1960, but it’s been well spent ever since. — CECIL ADAMS
