HA5 ARRIVED HE'S IN SUEROUNPEP THE GARAGE NOW! mm THE STEPPENWOLF MONSTER DUNHILL DS50066) Santa Claus, a favorite American figure, will be rolling through Moline Thursday; and on Friday, five more famous figures of "young" America will bring good tidings of "musical joy to Wharton Field House. The Steppenwolf will be in town Friday night and probably will perform some numbers from their latest Dunhill release, "Monster." "Move Over," their latest single, is featured on this work, along with eight other tracks. "Fag" is an instrumental that features Goldy doing his bit on the piano. Nick can be heard doing some heavy bass patterns. Larry Byron, new to the group, also is showing his talent as lead guitarist.

Truth is being emphasized heavily in lyrics these days. Steppenwolf was instrumental in the cause, and won't settle for being the last. "Monster" tells the sad story of America. 'Suicide" follows, naturally, and an urgent plea is made in the track called "America." "Draft Resister" tells of a man who takes shelter in Sweden after being too heavily influenced by the ways and means of the armed forces. "Power Play," also an early Steppenwolf, is my favorite.

It is well done musically, and, like the rest before it, carries a message which turns out to be all too true. Dink Lorance CREDENCE CLE'ARWATER REVIVAL WILLY AND THE POORBOYS (FANTASY 8397) John Fogerty and the rest of the boys have come on with their fourth great album, and it is amazing to see how much better they get with each work. Their music is very danceable and it also strikes at the earthy, down home feeling in people. It's that simple to explain. Creedence Clearwater's music makes you want to get up and clap your hands! "Down On The Corner" and "Fortunate Son," their latest double hit single, is featured with a barrage of new "Creedence" material.

Two oldies, "Midnight Special" and "Cotton Fields," are redone in their own inimitable style. "Don't Look Now (It Ain't You Or Me)" is in the flavor of a spiritual. A real down home song! "Side 0 The Road" is the "cookin' song. An instrumental that everybody seems to do their "bit" on! "It Came Out of the Sky" is an old style rock and roller that carries a line about Moline; and, it also has one about our vice president, Spiro Agnew. "Effigy" is the favorite of the album.

The feeling that Fogerty suggests really flows through on that one! No one who really enjoys "music" could afford to miss this album. So don't! THE MASKED MARAUDERS-DEITY-REPRISE 6378) Towards the end of last week I was wondering what could be happening in pop music next, and, well, it is just unbelievable. I received a new album, "The Masked Marauders." John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Mick Jagger and Bob Dylan are all supposedly on the album and, believe me, I can't really tell! Listening, it is undoubtedly true; and to top it all off, Al Kooper produced it. Since there haven't been any statements backing it, no one can be sure. The whole thing is satirical, and all I received was one of a two record set.

Mick does an original, and Dylan does an excellent vocal on "Season of the Witch," with Jagger and the rest of the boys providing excellent background. Lennon gets on with a funny called "I Am the Japanese Sandman." It was done in fun, but it could well become the most fabulous session album to be released.

Edison Album by Lawrence A. Frost put out by Superior Publishing Co. It retails at $12.95 and is beautifully bound and illustrated, a real addition to any library. "Incident at 125th Street" could have happened yesterday in any large city in this country. Published by Doubleday it is a book you will not put down till you reach the last chilling page.

Author J. E. Brown, a 48 -year old advertising director of Ziff Davis Inner Circle magazines, in his first attempt at a novel, has come up with a real winner. He recounts an incident which takes place on a dimly lighted railroad platform. A middle aged executive, waiting for his train to Connecticut, interferes with three long haired punks mugging an elderly man.

In the scuffle one of the boys is plunged over the platform railing and eventually dies of i injuries. The incident is examined from many angles by a newspaper editor, who admits to the publisher that he "blew this one," a hard bitten cop, the boy's bitter father and a reluctant witness. It's really a today story, complete with today's headlines woven through it. But it for yourself. The price is $4.95.

By DOROTHY BURESH Dispatch Writer If you stumble blindly into the bookstore on Christmas Eve and expect to finish your Christmas shopping, we have a few suggestions which might save you and your time. For your brother in law there's "Fired Again: A Guide to Survival in the Corporate Foothills" by Dwight Skelton at a mere $4.95 published by Funk Wagnalls. It will tell him how to hang on to a job and get him out of your spare bedroom. For the intellectual old maid aunt or the really interested young person on your list a new one is Funk Wapalls' "America's Role In Asia," which at least explores the problem. The auftior is D.

F. Fleming and the price $5.95. "Puppet on a Chain" by Alstair MacLean, author of "The Guns of Navarone," is a thriller that brings an international agent to Holland on the trail of a vicious narcotics ring, full of suspense and explosive action, it is just right for the person on your list who appreciates mystery and intrigue and violence. It is $5.95. If you are looking for last minute stocking fillers for a mere 75 cents, ycu might pick up "Three Tickets to Adventure" by Gerald Durrell or "A Zoo in My Luggage" by the same author, who writes about animals with style and verve.

"Which finesse will succeed?" I ask "Clubs or diamonds?" And I urge members of the class to vote for the finesse that they prefer. They get what voters usually get cynical. South should not choose a finesse until he sees what happens at flie first trick. Declarer plays dummy's queen of spades and awaits developments.

As the cards lie, the queen of spades wins the first trick. Now South is safe if West wins a later trick because South's king of spades will win a trick if West leads spades. East is the dangerous opponent since the king of spades will not win a trick if East leads a spade. Declarer must therefore try the club finesse. He is satisfied even though the finesse loses.

West cannot make a damaging return, and South is sure to win one spade, three hearts, two diamonds and three clubs. If the cards were just slightly different, East might be able to win the first trick with the ace of spades. For example, the seven and ace of spades might be exchanged. East will return a spade, and South refuses the second trick. South wins the third spade and must now keep West out of the lead.

South therefore tries the diamond finesse. The finesse loses, but East is out of spades. East cannot make a damaging return, and South makes his game with one spade, three hearts, four diamonds and one club. The hand is an exercise in recognizing which opponent is dangerous and in developing tricks in such a way as to keep the dangerous opponent out of the lead. Daily Question Partner opens with one club, you respond one spade, and partner bids one notrump.

It is once more up to you, holding: S- A 9 3 2 H- 9 6 2 D- 7 2 C- 8 4. What do you say? ANSWER: Pass. You have only 8 points, and partner's bidding shows a minimum opening bid. Game is out of me question, and you should pass at any convenient part score coontract, such as one notrump. More esoonsibili your horoscope by )eane jAixon 1 wancY FOR TUESDAY, DEC.
