I wish 'you'd have added, "And one way to have it checked tree is (o become a blood donor. It's quick and painless and, should you have a disease that shows in your blood sample, you are notified promptly." I donate blood twice a year.

And I feel that I'm getting much more than I give. Blood Donor Dear Donor: God love you. And, readers, if you are between IT and 65, you, too, can become a donor. The only bank in the world that would rather have your blood than your money is the Red Cross Blood Bank! stays' on to be digested. This was the second Grant Park performance of Chavez's score.

He conducted it there in 1964, when the Chicago Symphony Orchestra played two weeks in the bandshell at the request of the mayor's committee for economic and cultural development. The concerts were poorly supported by the public only a few more persons were present then than Wednesday. With the passing years, the conductor's once-definite beat has spread to the point where recognition of the attack point is difficult. The resulting uncertainties were reflected in many of the numerous solo performances. There was no lack of conviction in his interpretation, however.

The bushy black eyebrows gave his occasional glowers an 'unmistakable authority. If everyone in the orchestra did not play well, it had nothing to do with a lack of respect. His lesiher slip-on THE GRANT PARK Symphony Orchestra management asked Cartes Chavez to conduct Latin American concerts in the Petrillo bandshell this week. It may seem a reasonable request to make of a man who has been intensely involved in Mexico's musical life nearly half a century. But of all the composers whose names have surfaced in the America south of our border, Chavei is least likely to be remembered as a musical nationalist.

He has championed new music in his native land, to be sure. The Orquesta Sinfonica de. Mexico, which he conducted until 1943, was known for its wide repertory of music by Mexican and other Latin American composers, and the National Conservatory, which he directed in the 1930s, became the country's major training center for composers as well as performers. It was the developing international style of post World War I Europe which most interested him as composer and conductor, tho. Like Aaron Copland, whose "El Salon Mexico" was programmed Wednesday, he sought ways of bringing his country in tdthe western musical community, not ways of keeping it out.

YOU WILL not find much folk music quoted in his music. He uses native percussion instruments adroitly, but the patterns are abstract and civilized, not pseudo-native. Contrasting his Sinfonia Romantica, a 1953 work, with the driving rhythms of Alberto Ginastera's "Estancia" Suite, also programmed, reveals how little Chavez is interested in the superficialities of mood or local color. The color is there in the symphony, but it's for the most part muted in favor of specifically musical ideas. His idiom lies much closer, in fact, to the Stravinsky of "L'Histoire du Soldat" and the Hindemith of the than to the Argentine Ginastera or the Brazilian Villa-Lobos, whose Second "Bachianas Brasilier-as" opened the concert.

There is a spiritual kinship between Villa-Lobos' naive and perky orchestrations of folk material and Chavez's "romantic" symphony the concerto grosso motive chains which animate the Brandenburg Concertos. But the resemblance stops there. The Brazilian's confectionery quartet is gone almost as soon as it is experienced; the symphony HEfl SDlifc-sufide 'n' le4.t teY tie tn popcoift corfc. -jy 0 5 6 HAWTHORN CENTER LINCOLN MALL OAKBROOK MALL I ft MOTION PICTURE -1st Rue Cklceiejelaiid -MOTION PICTURES --1st Run Chlcaoolaeo)- Bombastic -SCHOOL GUIDE- -SCHOOt riaDDannaDQaDananDDDQErj DEAR ABBY: I have a problem.

As the date drew near, I panicked. For some strange reason, marriage fright-j ened me. I was sure I was in love with my fiance, but I just couldn't go thru with the wedding. I had had some showers and received some beautiful and expensive shower gifts. We decided to postpone our.

wedding. lOur wedding invitations were addressed, but never mailed. Now the marriage appears unlikely, altho my fiance says I he will wait for as long as I want him to. The shower gifts still are in their original boxes, and rit's doubtful the people who sent, them can take them 'back now. Also those I've spoken to said: "Keep it.

I ian't use it." Abby, please tell me what I should do at this late dale about the shower gifts. I may marry him after all and I may not. Undecided Dear Undecided: Return the shower gifts.

The Woods Theater is promoting "Black Franken-pstein" on its marquee as an "all new" motion picture. 'Actually, the film was marie and released in 1972 un- -der the title "Blackenstein." It didn't sell then, and it jLjsn't selling now. The picture will be pulled Thursday a one-week run. Ten mimites have been trimmed from the 1972 ver- r-sion; the film how runs a scant 77 minutes. Enough violence has been inserted to change the rating from "PG" to And whereas "Blacksnstein" originally was released to ride the I capetails of "B'acu'a's" success, the rerelcae is an attemDt to latch onto the publicity surrounding Mel Brooks' comic "Young Frankenstein." As for the film itself, it's a low-budget production all way.

Even the laboratory equipment looks rented." i-The story is set in the present. A limbless Viet Nam falls undei- the care a Dr. Stein, "a Nobel Prize-a Ijwl ff -r DNA research." The doctor's lab assistant is soon hot for the vet's girl friend. He switches some chemicals so that the J.6c unknowingly shoots the vet full of DNA materi-J belonging to a caveman. As a result, the vet begins Vetoing a cannibal-Karloff number.

Director William Le--vey apparently has a shoe fetish; he gives us a half-l dozen cutaways to the monster's patent leather boots. Rating for "Black one-half star. AND THEN there's "Ilsai She Wolf of the This i film represents a new low in Loop movies. It is the most degenerate picture I have seen to play downtown, t' "Ilsa" uses a Nazi concentration camp setting to I 80 minutes of soft-core sado-masochism. The lady doctor in charge of the camp wants to prove that women can withstand more punishment than men.

She "proceeds to' give us scenes of electrocution, castration, "urination, and dismemberment. Woman prisoners have clamps placed on their breasts and genitals, and then are electrocuted and stabbed. The blood runs freely. "Ilsa' Is playing at the Loop Theater on State An assistant theater manager said he was sur--prised he had not received more audience complaints. I'm surprised too and frightened.

"Ilsa" plays like -cr4extbock for rapists and mutilation freaks. Ll The film is doing terrific business, so I'm sure the JlPTople responsible for bringing it to Chicago won't mirid if I mention their names. The visual atrocity is attributed locally thru Teitel Films, owned by Chuck, jjToitel. and the Loop Theater is part of the Brotman A li'Sherman theater chain, which is run by Oscar Brot-J-'man. Neither of those men admits to having seen "Ilsa." Therefore, they- are unaware of the filth they ar trading in.

should see it, because I'm certain they then would remove it. Rating for no stars. 9 5210 Lawrane 'JAWS' WhMt Lm Fnvnr "TOMMY" 3175 war 927 4114 PA frt Park Rtifm litkaii amtttat Manrlay thru WctiBrinDmii Born YESTERDAY DRURY LANE NORTH THEATRE Starring ELKE SOMMER Tues. Wed. Thurs.
