entesJaigment Radio personalities honored CHICAGO (AP) — Actor Don Amechc, disc jockey Casey Kasem and country music's Grand Old Opry have joined broadcasting’s '^TTnest Tn the Radio tfaTOFarnc:~ They were among the five in ductees Sunday. The others,werc ABC Radio pioneer Leonard Goldenson and Detroit morning radio personality J.P. McCarthy. Ameche, star of movies includ ing “Cocoon,” co-starred years ago in the radio program “The Bickersons.” ____,__ Kasem hosts “Casey’s fop 40" and “Casey’sCountdown,” two syn dicated popular music shows. ABC Radio’s Paul Harvey was host of the ceremony Sunday at the Museum of Broadcast Communi cations. __ Crew Continued from Page 9 Crew. The choice must have been difficult, because songs like“S & M,” “Do Wab Diddy” and “One and One” from the second album as well as selections from the third album are considered classic by some 2 Live Crew fans. From the most recent album, “Sports Weekend (As Nasty As They Wanna Be Part II),” comes “Some Hot Head” and two other titles. Al though good songs, these tracks don’t bring the nostalgia of the previous ones. Of the new tracks, only “We Like to Chill” shouldn’t have been in eluded. “The Splack Shop” is a type of sequel to an earlier 2 Live Crew tune with lots of sex rhymes. “Boyz With Da Bass” is a surpris ingly good non-sex track. Fresh Kid Ice says, “That’s right y’all, you heard it ‘cause we said it/ and if they can read, in the magazines you read it/Aboul who?/You know the crew/first out the pack/and the first to put the bass on the 24 track.” “The 2 LivcCrew’s Greatest Hits” is a very good sample of the group’s style from their origin to the present day. For fans of the group, this should be a sure buy. — Greg Schick I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Every Tuesday I 1 9 p m.

Kepfield Staff Reporter___ Sooner or later, any science fiction writer worth his salt attempts to craft a large image of “future history” by creating worlds, institutions and characters that appear in more than one work. Robert Heinlcin had his “future -history” cot lectetfTn "The Past Through Tomorrow” in 1975. Isaac Asimov had his Foundation era, tying it in with his robots stories. And Larry Niven created “Known Space.” Add Mike Resnick to the list. “Oracle” is the sequel to last year ’s “Soothsayer,” and Resnick hints in the prologue and the ending that there will be a third book. Resnick’s universe began in “Birth right: The Book of Man” in 1982, continued in his critically acclaimed “Santiago” in 1986 and has showed up in several other stories and novels. His vision of the future is part John Ford western, part Raymond Chan dler novel, populated with bounty hunters, cold-blooded killers who go by pseudonyms, super-secret govern ment operatives and a host of shady characters. It is a thoroughly enjoy able mix. “Oracle” details the hunt, by three men, for Penelope Bailey. Fourteen ~years~S2fItefr$he escaped from the clutches of government and bounty hunters alikeand later single-handedly fended off a star fleet. What makes her worth all this trouble is her gift of precognition, being able to see different futures and alter the outcome of events by choos ing which line the future will take. She is holed up on the planet Ha des, and the government has sent one man to extract her, another to kill her. There’s one catch, though. She’s being held prisoner, sonnchow, by the Lorhn, or the Blue Devils. The question is, does she want to escape? Better yet, ought she be al lowed to, considering her powers? “Oracle” is a choice addition to any science fiction library.
