Rob Crosby said that they were looking for that ever elusive record contract with a large label, and although there were no concrete offers yet, he still had hope.

The Corbett-Urquia Band, a very tight yet relatively new group on the Columbia scene, showed its stuff in an excellent performance. Probably the best progressive (not new wave) rock band to come out of the area, they attribute their unique sound to the lack of Southern and country-rock influences which characterize many other southern bands. An original band (they now have thirty-five original tunes), they have been leaving favorable impressions wherever they've played. Consisting of Jim Corbett lead guitar, Susan Urquiaguitar and keyboards, Steve Klinck-drums, Chip Cannonkeyboards, Robert Kirklandbass, and Scott Moyer on the mixing board, CorbettUrquia impresses audiences with their technical finesse and musical expertise.

She also says that she wants to write her music with a sense of awareness of the world situation, hopefully conveying her message to the band's audiences. They also left with a warning to be ready for Halloween night at Greenstreets, where they will present the rock opera "A Night With Count Rockula" complete with costumes and original sones. guaranteed to be an evening of perverted fun. FOR THOSE who attended, the First Annual Neutron Blast went well, but the poor turnout downplayed the magnitude of the event. The two main reasons cited for the low turnout were the lack of publicity and the scheduling for a Monday night. Unfortunately for G.R.O.W. and the USC chapter of the Palmetto Alliance, the event was not as successful as planned. As Brett Bursey stated, however, the purpose for the event (and the organizations) is "to _ it cnauenge young people to stop and think about whom they've living their lives for ? which is something you don't learn at Carolina unless you try."

Dim lights and beautiful paintings enhance the relaxing atmosphere. My partner and I started the evening out with a superb salad topped with rich Bleu Cheese dressing. Hot rolls and butter were also served. For dinner I had Coquilles Saint-Jacques au Chateau ? scallops sauteed in dry white wine and butter with parsley, thyme and fresh mushrooms dusted with bread crumbs and cheese then broiled. With this, I was also given potatoes and broccoli. The Coquilles Saint-Jacques au Chateau was $13.95 and the most expensive item on the menu. The scallops were excellent and melted in my mouth. MY PARTNER tried Caneton Citron ? duckling roasted with oranges and lemons until crisp and served with a tantalizing lemon glaze. His entree was also served with potatoes and broccoli. He commented several times that his duckling vor? 0 "* J tender and extremely good. The price? Only $10.95.
