In our last exciting episode, Celeste Under
wood, presidential candidate, stumbled home
drunk from a Eiectb; with some very under ee
octcntl&l voters. llzilsy Davidson and Otis P.
navenport, Celeste's faithful housemates, began
to guspect she needed to clean up her act
-Well, Celeste, have you got your speech ready?"
Harley Davidson asked his portly, fortyish house
, mate. "The Students for Unusual Political Action
Meeting starts in half an hour."
"I know, I know," Celeste muttered. "I've still got to

purple silk, anyway?
gotten the Ladies Auxiliary of the Peacekeeper
Society a little more drunk, I would have had a firm
commitment! Unfortunately.they all had to go home
and knit booties for those cute little MX missiles. It
gets cold out there in western Nebraska, you know.
Well, where is this fabled manager? Bring him on.
WeH test his spirit. Otis! Where the devil is that
champagne!"
As if on cue, the doorbell rang. Otis, the acting
butler for the week, opened the door. A tall, slender
youth, with flowing curls and a green carnation in
his buttonhole, wafted in.
"Good day,everyone," he said languidly. "I'm Addi
son Steele, professional campaign manager and
literary figure. Perhaps youVe heard of me?"
Otb gulped. Harley stared. Celeste broke into rau
cous laughter. Not at all perturbed, Addison lit a
gold-tipped cigarette and gazed around the room.
"What a rustic dwelling," he remarked. "Perhaps a
few Impressionist paintings might improve it some
what. Miss or is it Madame? Underwood," he
said, bending over Celeste's hand. "Your suit does
not become you, especially as you are attending a
meeting of university students. I think a dress of
sequined purple silk would work much better."

' "YouVe got to remember, Celeste, that university
students are a notoriously conservative lot. They
also tend to be heavily insulated from what's popu
larly known as 'reality.' Brilliant colors make them
skittish."
That's not how I recall my college days," Celeste
replied. "Not the early years, anyway. Look, Harley,
I'm parched. Can't I have just one margarita?"
"Absolutely not! Remember what happened dur
ing your last speech? The American Federation of
Gun Fanatics was up in arms for a week!"
"So I told 'em they were a bunch of crazies. So
what? I'm telling you something, baby, this presiden
tial candidate doesn't mess around with fancy cam
paign promises and soft words. I call 'em as I see 'em,
and if they don't like it, they can leave."
Harley sighed. "Celeste, I didn't want to break this
to you now, but I see I'm going to have to. Wd Otis
and I have decided that you need a trainer."
"A what?"
"Er a campaign manager. WeVe already picked
one. We think youll really like him."
Celeste dropped the iron, narrowly missing her
toe. "A campaign manager!" she shouted. "Are you
implying, Harley Davidson, that I am incapable of
managing my own campaign?"
"No, I'm telling you straight out," Harley said.
"Look, Celeste, a campaign manager can help you
smooth off any rough edges in your well, attire
and delivery. He can also help you get to places on
time, put posters up, take potential voters to
bars "
"Nowyou're talking!" Celeste exclaimed. "If I'djust

One of the lower-quality every sense, and the very
videos from this genre is positive crowd reaction
"Roll With the Changes" sums it up well. Perhaps
from REO Speedwagon. the video does draw upon
The band turns in a tiring the natural beauty of this
performance, and the fans particular arena, but

led, either. As for film
making expertise, there
is none here. Shots of the
band are unvaried and of
poor quality. Amazement
at such a lackluster per
formance (in front of the
cameras, yet) is the only
feeling that comes across
in this video.
And at the other end of
the stage enters the Irish
band U2. Their concert
video performance of "Sun
day, Bloody Sunday" was
taped at Red Rocks, just
outside of Denver. (MTV
vee-jay J.J. Jackson was
heard this past Monday
afternoon remarking how
beautiful the outdoor Red
Rocks arena in California
really is. Yes, Virginia,
there really is a Midwest.)
At any rate, the four
man band delivers a tire
less performance in what
appears to be stifling cold

He was young, free,
and eligible, Real eligible.
When his girl friend left him, he
tried his best to meet all kinds
of women: lawyers, teachers,
secretaries... any women. But he
just wasn't succeeding.
He was still lonely.
So lonely he wrote a book about it,
and then things began to change.
He became successful and famous.
Larry was an overnight sensation.
But he was still a lonely guy.
And just when he thought he'd never
find the girl of his dreams... She found him.
And that's when bis troubles really started!
