Federal, state leaders react to Reagan speech
WASHINGTON—President Reagan's plan for federal-state swap drew quick applause from Republican leaders and harsh criticism from other key players from another country from other key players to signal a tough fight.
Governors and some congressmen said they wanted to wait for specifies before backing Reagan's plan to transfer $47 billion in federal programs to states.
Vermont Gov. Richard Snelling, chairman of the National Governors Association, said yesterday that governors were unlikely to accept the president's plan unless they were given enough money to support a formula to correct financial "injustices" among various states.
The president's proposed program came under
sharp fire yesterday from the Black Leadership Forum, which is made up of leaders of nearly all black colleges.
Reagan's message "demonstrated a shocking insensitivity to the needs and aspirations of black people, other minorities and the poor," the Rev. Joseph Lowery, president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, said on behalf of the group.
Republican leadership was more optimistic about Reagan's nroposal.
"I think it' worth the gamble," Howard Baker, Senate Republican leader, said on NBC. "I think it's the only way you can make a basic point to Washington."
Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kansas, interviewed on CBS,
was more cautious than other leading
ones, so he ought to wait and look at the
species," he said.
"We don't have the details. We have the concern. It sounds good."
Dole urged federal protection for food stamp recipients because some states "might reduce the program and deny some poor people their food."
Johannes Witewenke, the former president of the International Monetary Fund, called Reagan's State of the Union address a disapointment. But Reagan's plans could prolong the recession by a year.
Democratic and Republican leaders agreed
to ratify the tax increase with yee
wasdead because they said it was not
important.
The White house said public opinion was questioning the governor's favor, with more than 250 responses received.
Wittevene said the president's "refusal to consider any increase in indirect taxes" meant the entire anti-inflation battle would have to be fought by the Federal Reserve.
Former Vice President Walter Mondale, former Vice President on CBS, said he was angry about the attacks on him.
Sen. Russell Long, D-LA., said the president "did not come to grips" with the problems of high unemployment, high interest rates and high budget deficits.
Mondale said the deficit was not decreasing, as Reagan claimed, but was increasing.
Illinois Republican Gov. James Thompson, echoing Snelling's concerns over money, enraged the governor.
"It's time to give us our money back. It is time to give us our power and authority back and it is time to let the governors and the mayors of this state know that the people in their states." Thompson told CBS.
City budget future uncertain
Vice President George Bush was expected enthusiastically about Reagan's proposals.

Desmond Morris, discussing the nature of our ancestral earth dwellers, has this to say about his work on *Queen Victoria* and how he sought to disconnect the misconception that early man was a lumbering brute who was always dragging women off the ground. You study the social life of primitive man from the remains we have, you discover that he could only have succeeded if there was a conspiracy that led to the extinction and love within his group. This sense of assistance, tenderness and friendship contrasted strikingly with the hardened the hunt had to do to survive.

(Capitol) For a砌壁 stretch there, it seemed like Delbert McClinton's alums were being cut by someone who knew him well. In 1981, early this long-time rocker scored his first Top Ten hit a lofted track called "Giving It up for Your Love." from a passable (by some) album. The band was Kind. That hit restored some deeper confidence base, or simply convinced his label to spend more money on the follow-up, Plain From the solitare album in several years.
Side Two is recorded with smaller ensembles, which has a liberating effect on the blueser side of McClinton's musical scope. Also, cut on this side has a dose of McClinton's harmonica playing a proven quantity. Two when it highlighted fellow Texan Jason Chievel's hit 'Hey Baby' HBB.

The first three cuts are just horses d'courues to get the party started. The Muscle Shoal team, who smothered a few of the *Jawful King's* tracks, is thick with multiple horns, but punky ones staccata, sometimes riffing riffs.

Be that as it may, *Hartan* is an excellent showcase for its author's propious prose style. Despite the disad vantage of a rather high and at times reedy voice, Ellison delivers a subtle and amusing read of his material, with a surprisingly dramatic voice. Ellison demonstrates the deference and rhythm of the words and Ellison's rendering soars and carens with a breathtaking precision.
"Repent, Harlequin!" the Sick tockman is, we are informed by the cover blurb, one of the most reprinted stories in the English fan fiction genre. "A cautionary tale — where every late minute in a person's life is subdued from the total life span — makes us almost believe the claim. Almost so," Mr. Morandt wrote. "Shatterday — Repent is a masterful translation from print to grove. Ellison evokes a marvelous array of character and nuance in the tale, the作品 takes on a nearpure form. The tale given in a long familiar touch by its creator. "Shatterday" suffers from a heavylanded haul and does not quite survive the delicate transition in sound, but is, nevertheless, a credit worth mentioning.

THE BLASTERS The Blasters

(Stash) The Blasters are a 100% in-wool traditional rock 'n' roll band who have their early blues, rhythm & blues and rocky licks released. They were released on the Rollin' Rock rock albly label — comes courtesy of the LA park label but that only goes to show how utterly merry it — not out right blind — major labels are to basic energetic American rock 'n' roll them.
The Blasters is fundamentally a groose record, meaning its first object it is to get fingers snappin, toes tapin, and heads bobbin
The material ranges from covers of songs made famous by country singer Jimmy Rodgers (‘Never No More Blues’) and rdbb great Little Wille John (‘Tin Shakin’) to origins that evoke the musical spirit of Professor Lewis, whose features one of two appearances by Lee Allen, the tenor sax man whose solos pop up on all the old Fats Domino and Little Richard hius) and

Chuck Berry (the marvelous *Marie*; *Marie*'s American) music not only inspires but also demonstrates intent but is every bit as powerful an author as the title dictates it should.
The finest single moment comes on "This Is It" where a new Delta blues钥匙车ked with the band. Alen throws in simple tails that are so utterly right they all but stun out of the speaker cross the room and YELL "YEAH" in excitement.
The album comes a cropper on the stone country blues of *Higher ground*<sup>1)</sup>. The Blasters get off that swinging groove the powered the first nine tracks, and the rest does not change the fat that the *Blasters* is an excellent record.

Rinky Randy, lead singer and saxophonist, shares the spotlight with her husband, the guitar player. Randy leads a lead singer for the group, Mary Randy.
(Geffen Records)) put out of the chure, in the outside lane is another new band — Quarterlash. Galloping into them with their first sing-up from their first LP on Genef Records in the top ten "Harden My Heart" is the kind of dirt he has been throwing at by the second chorus. Quarterlash is a glossy, middle-of-the-road pop album. A couple of tracks are dogs, but three or four turns up under unrepaired covers.
They open it with the hook-filled single and keep it rolling from there with an epic-melodied, driving rocker called 'Find Another Fool' "Critical Times" is the next cut and a surprise because it's a ballad sung by Mary. The theme of the song is great but the lyric is boring. She sings like he's trying on a British accent.
In 1980, the band independently recorded 'Harden's My Heart' and had a #1 regional hit with it. Somebody like it was going to Los Angeles to record The Album.
It's Rindy's turn on 'Valerie.' This is a pop song with a twist, the story of one girl being told that she was not quite tasteful to boot. Rindy is in an engaging singer who shirts in and out of her babes with the greatest of ease. She's a good friend.
By the way, the name Quarterflight comes from an old Australian folk saying "a Quarter flash and three quarters a Quarter flash you get a name from cartoon character."
