'Tonight Show' Veteran Scores With New Recording, 'Miss M'
By JOE ZANATTA
Korean Reviews Editor
THE DIVINE MISS M—BETTE MIDLER
(ATLANTIC)
Every now and then an album comes along that takes you by surprise. "The Wrong Side of a Song"
Bette Midler has appeared on the "Tonight Show" a number of times, performing a variety of material from the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s. Her costumes, attitude and musical selections created an image of a half-claown cled.
But Miss M's recording debut tops anything she ever did for late night television audiences. The gold oldies are on the album but no songs that show she has just as much talent as the bigger-name performers.
"Chapel of Love," "Leader of the Pack" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" are three of the oldies that appear on the album. Miss M's versions are as good as the originals, if not better. "Daytime Hustler" is a rhythm song that show yet another musical side.
"Superstar", "Do You Wanna Dance" and "Friends" are the best songs. They feature a beautiful, melody voice, full of emotion, interesting switch from her other flashy songs.
"The Divine Miss M' offers something to please everybody, whether you like soft ballads, the big band sound, gutsy rhythm and blues or motorcycle tunes.

Grade Schoolers to Study Adult Life Through Games
By PAT BREITENSTEIN Kansan Staff Writer
East Heights Elementary school will be the scene of a new technique in learning, according to Richard Schusler, associate professor of education.
Preparations for simulation games are already under way. The program will take place during six weeks in February and March of the spring school term.
Schusler said this project would involve all grade levels at the school as well as students from KU, parents, teachers and community people.
Although teaching through simulation games is not new, Schusler and his coworker, Richard Cohen, assistant instructor in education, explained that this was the first such application of simulation games on such a large scale.
The objective of the games is to teach
the children about shopping and use of money in shopping for food.
Schulser said the experiment would operate by establishing a small community bank where students will take a half day each week to play the roles of the people in that community. The community will include a post office, store, bank and possibly a hardware store.
The students will assume all the responsibility for running the community, Schusler said. They will function both as salesmen and consumers. Each student will be issued $80 in money each week to dispose of as he wishes.
Schusler said that during the week the simulation would be augmented by discussions with community people in the school. They also would supplement their teachers also would supplement the simulation experience with discussions of such things as nutrition in relation to

Books teach facts. "The use of facts is what simulation teaches." said Schusler.
"Fresh" is the second album from the Raspberries. It's a talented presentation of good material. There's not more you can ask from a band.

Simulation teaches the concept of skill and decision making. Schuler said. Books on this topic are available.
The Rasberries sound like the Beaches at
converse, but their music is never a carbon
composition.
“If You Change Your Mind,” *I Reach for the Light!* and “Nobody Knows,” are among the better cuts on the album. They feature a number of other tracks, a sound-alike for Paul McCartney.
Ten KU students are involved in the project this semester, Schusler said. They are involved as part of a School of Education individual study course. Schusler hopes to have at least 15 KU participants next semester.
East Heights elementary was selected for its location, Schusler said. He said that it was a good site because of the diverse population of the students involved and the cooperation expressed on the part of the teachers there.
It's a mood or feeling that's hard to pinpoint, but is present in both groups.

"Let's Pretend," "Goin' Nowhere Tonight" and "I Wanna Be With you," their single release, are also good cuts and feature the same Beatle sound.
Much of the Beatle song in "Fresh" comes from rich vocal harmonies and the singing of Carmen. Instrumentally, the only song we hear is "Windy," a simple style as their English counterparts. The only old song on the album is "Drivin' Around," which sounds as if it were a dance song.
"Fresh" is an all album well worth an examination. If you like the Beatles but are tired of playing the same old albums, they may be just what you're looking for.
FOR THE ROSES-JONI MITCHELL (ASYLUM)
"For the Roses" is another album of images and thoughts by Joni Mitchell. It's twelve new tunes from the talented performer-sonwriter.
"You Turn Me On I'm a Radio" is probably destined for the most radio play. It has a trace of country music and a dash of Graham Nash's harmonica. "Blond in the album's better songs," is ballad that moves into rock about half-way through the song.
"Woman of Heart and Mind" and "Cold in Steel" between offerings from amnii, Mitchell.

Matthew Braun's BLACK FOX (Gold Medal, 95 cents) is about an ex-slave who is a frontier scout in Civil War days, when 700 Comanches and Kiwas joined forces to raid a county and drive out the whites. The hero, Black Fox, makes expeditions into the Indian country despite the fact that it is not safe territory.
Isaac Asimov's THE NAKED SUN
"It's a story of the Steel." It is about a police detective and his
southern cousin.
--partner who are assigned to investigate a murder on the planet Solaria, where there are 10,000 robots to every human being. Asimov is one of the best practitioners of science fiction around, and here he writes a detective story to boot.
A big besteller of the last year or so on the paper back stands this month. It is John Updike's RABBIT REDUX (Cric, $1.50), which is a sequel to the famous "Rabbit," going against it with one big thing is mighty hard to like. And here he's 10 years older and seemingly 10 years dumber. His wife leaves him for another man, he becomes involved with an 18-year-old, he tries drugs, gets to know a young black woman, gets himself awaken to a better understanding of himself. But with Rabbit you never know.
Much less significant but more fun is Robert Vaughan and Monroe Lynch's BRANDYWINE'S WAR (Crest, $9 cents), which is based on the authors' own experiences southeast Asia. The cast of characters is as disreputable as that bunch in the war, and the authors are making some funny jokes in harsh commentary on the military mind.
Another detective on hand is CIA troubleshooter Sam Durell, solving his 34th case in Edward S. Aarons' ASSIGNMENT — when he was a student at institutions). Durrell has the job of finding what happened to Dickinson McFee, his superior in CIA, when McFee turns up missing.
A nonfictional volume of the month is
Christopher Ellis's FLEECING THE LAMBIS (Crest, $1.25) is this an expose of how the New York Stock Exchange defends the public. Deliberately, says Ellas, another one is Charles A. Eastman's INDIAN BOYHOOD (Premier, 95 cents). Eastman, a full-blooded Sloux, spent the first 15 years of his life with his tribe, and he describes here what that life was like. And there's a new Pennets You've GOT A FRIEND, CHARLIE CUSON (Crest, 95 cents). Fun as usual.
