Fred’s mind was traveling ahead
of the Lincoln labs volunteer study
recording to his future, searching
for the tracks to take and the tracks
to cross, finding his mind to be
most comfortable in all the places
with no tracks.
Fred hung up the phone, and
the phone rang. It was Edlin. He
wanted to know where Fred was.
Fred wanted to say something clever
that would provide for him a sense
of place but apologized instead for
being late.
“I’m on my way over,” Fred said.

Cold rain fell and ran down the
street in front of the Rue de la
Grind, toward restaurants neither
Jill nor Linden could afford: the
Upper Cut, Guplos and Way Sea
foods. Linden and Jill drank coffee
by the window inside the Rue de la
Grind.
“You just don’t think about the
same things I do,” Linden said.
“That’s true,” Jill said.
“We’re in different worlds,” Lin
den said.
“And we think differently,” Jill
said smiling. Jill threw her coffee
soaked napkin at Linden.
Linden smiled. “I’m being con
frontational. Sorry,” Linden said.
“No problem. Relax, Linden. Take
a deep breath,” Jill said.

“A deep breath,” Linden said,
taking a aeep breath. “I’m a little
overwhelmed by Sylvia. Not her
personality, though that’s a little
overwhelming, but her constant
politics, all that talk about capital
ism.”
“I think you like it,” Jill said.
“Well, her points are poignant,”
Linden said.
“Oh Linden, remember Friday?"
Jill asked.
"Definitely,"Linden said. “1 want
to get some of my post-punk rec
ords back."
“OK. Give me a few days though.

Women’s music finds place
on Sunday radio program
By Yvonne A. Sabatka

The studio is quiet and small,
filled with the sound of faint music
— a fitting home for “The Wim
min’s Show,” which airs Sundays
from noon to 3 p.m. on KZUM.
A short hallway leads to a bright
room with walls covered by rec
ords, tapes and compact disks. To
the left is another bright room, the
air studio where the programmer
delivers her message to the snowy
city.

the first half of “The Wimmin’s
