"I just sing," says Sykes, a California native who's on the road as much as he's home with his wife and three sons, ages 3, 5 and 8. This is what his life is, he says. He'll be home a week or two, then gone three, home another week, then gone five days.

"Right now. It's kind of what I do," he says. "And I don't stop to think about it." IF YOU'RE GOING What Baritone Jubilant Sykes with the South Dakota Symphony. When: 8 tonight. Where: Sioux Falls Convention Center Ballroom.

Tickets: $28, $19 and $12 for adults; $25, $16 and $10 for senior citizens; $7 for students. He brings his baritone voice back to a Sioux Falls tonight when he joins the South Dakota Symphony in the Convention Center. The biggest change in Sykes' life since he last came to town in October 1994 is a record deal with Sony Classics. He released his first CD this spring. The next recording will include works by Bach, Mendelssohn and Schubert.

Sykes sings spirituals and classical music. The spirituals, unlike gospel songs, were born in the slave days, he says.jGospel grew in the early part of this century. "I love them," he says of songs such as "City Called Heaven" and "Were You There?" "I like the simplicity of the melody line, the straightforward message of why we're here as a culture, as Christians. The text speaks the simple truth. It's like the gospel put in musical Singer Jubilant Sykes says a music career is not for the fainthearted.

Nathan Pawelek returns as principal French horn player. He filled in as principal between Casino ads on KELO up against NFL rule By BOB KEYES Argus Leader Staff KELO-TV accepts casino advertising during its Sunday afternoon football broadcasts that other Sioux Falls stations routinely reject for fear of violating an NFL policy. The commercials from Royal River Casino go up against league rules that prohibit stations from running "any advertising from a casino, or from a hotel, riverboat or other facility that houses or operates commercial gambling, even Broncos on TV. 2B if the content of the advertising does not specifically mention or suggest gambling." The National Football League enacted the policy to distance itself from gambling of any kind, said Joe Ferreira, director of broadcasting for the league. "Any association with gambling would be bad for our sport," he said.

Mark Antonitis, general manager at KELO, a CBS said he believes station is within bounds by airing the ads and he intends to continue running them. If the network tells him to stop, he will, he said. "We are accepting advertising from Indian casinos. That is our normal policy. We want to be within the policy of CBS and the NFL, though, and if we're told differently we'll adjust our policy accordingly," Antonitis said.

A spokesman for the Royal River Casino in Flan-dreau couldn't be reached Friday for comment. The anti-gambling policy was enacted since CBS last had NFL football, so the rules may be new to local affiliates, a league spokesman said. NFL games also air locally on KSFY, an ABC affiliate that has Monday Night Football, and KTTW, which carries Fox network games on Sunday afternoon. "It's been a real weird issue, ever since the day we got the NFL," said KTTW's Ed Hoffman. "A lot of the casinos want to advertise, but it has always been a gray area, so we've stayed away from it." Jack Hansen, KSFY general manager, said ABC sent a memo this week reminding affiliates of the rules.

"The policy is only a couple of years old. There was a time when we had some big casino bucks in it, and then the policy was instituted. We've been memoed twice by the network this year already." Ferreira said the league would leave the policing of the anti-gambling policy to the networks. "The league would inform the network and have the network handle it," he said. The rules are specific, Ferreira said.

"It's a pretty strong policy. Not only do we allow no ads for casinos, we do not allow ads for hotels that house casinos. For instance, a network or affiliate couldn't take an ad for the Las Vegas Hilton even if it didn't mention their casino. Riverboat gambling, Indian casinos -anything like that they're also prohibited." St. Therese starts drive for building By JILLCALUSON Argus Leader Staff St.

Therese Catholic Church is launching a capital campaign aimed at raising a minimum of $850,000 to construct a new building. The campaign has been named "Share the Promise of Home and Hope," says the Rev. Chuck Cimpl, St. Therese's pastor. The Catholic Diocese gave St.

Therese the chance to build its own facilities in 1996. The parish, which now meets at Washington High School and Messiah New Hope Lutheran Church, is committed to having its own building by 2000. The project will be com- RELIGION pleted in multiple phases. The first involves building a gathering area, an area for classrooms and parish offices, and a worship space. Cost is $2.4 million.

The second phase will expand the worship and gathering spaces. St. Therese has $800,000 in its building fund, and the diocese also will help with money, Cimpl says. The campaign will start officially with a celebration on Sunday, Oct. 11.

St. Therese is looking for 80 volunteers to reach all St. Therese parishioners. The members will be asked to contribute to the pledge campaign over and above their regular offerings for the next five years. New sanctuary Peace Lutheran Church and its membership of more than 2,200 will dedicate a new sanctuary and its remodeling project Sunday.

Services will be at 8: 15. 9:30 and 1 1 a.m. The Rev. Jeff Sorenson, assistant to the bishop of the South Dakota Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, will preach. Refreshments will be served between services.

Tours will be available. Peace Lutheran's sanctuary at 5509 W. 41st now seats 550 people. The $2 million project included remodeling the old sanctuary into a fellowship hall and youth room. The church opened in 1965, and its founding pastor, the Rev.

Paul Sanders, served until 1989. The church now is served by the Revs. Dave Johnson and Paul Stjernholm. Seminary program The master of arts in marriage and family therapy program at North American Baptist Seminary has taken a forward step. The program has been granted candidacy status with the Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.

The seminary's master's program offers a theological component and positions students for a variety of mental health career options in religious settings, community agencies, or private practice. The program also serves as preparation for doctoral study. The school has about 300 students. Jill Callison covers religion and relationships for the Argus Leader. Write her at P.O.
