This of tha macabre shout a girl who is ep'atterei over the highway in a motorcycle accident ends with a i- of her boy friend sharing one last beautiful moment: I stood by lha furnace, Just listening to-you sizzle.1 NATIONAL GENERAL 1 hLATHULJ i call Tf.iATfiS er 537-41 CO 1 8:. i -ft jr i BY DIGBY DIEHL Opening with 'a sensitive, Baroque-tinged rendition of "When I Was Seventeen at Caltech's Beck man Auditorium, Chad and Jeremy completely charmed their capacity concert audience. But the concert progressed and the simplicity of their well-harmonized voices and unamplifled guitars degenerated to an unfunny, jarring Las Ve-' gas night club skit, it became apparent that the British duo was not aware where their musical strength lay. The pair such talent for modern balladry spent an excessive amount of stage time trying to be comedians. peaceful, renaissance quality of "Donna, Donna, Doo" was followed, for example, by a blue-grass parody of Donovan's "Colors" in which the hero's girl has a pirate's dream: a sunken chest." Or the compelling chug of 'Woman In You Bringing Out the Man la Me" preceded a Beatle tune eoml-c a 1 1 reworded, "Hey, YouVe Got to Sign Your Life Away," "Hopped-Up Bach A particularly success-f 1 comic novelty was "Hair," a tune pointing out -that contemporary teenagers are merely participating in a hirsute tradition dating from George Washington and Prince Valiant.

The jangling reverbera-tlons of an electrified harpsichord lent a flavor somewhere between John Cage and honky-tonk piano to pieces such as "Before and After" or "Yesterday's Gone." The hopped-up Bach sound was especi-ally effective in their hard-driving up-tempo hit, Take Me for What I'm Worth," while and bobbed in front of a bandstand draped with Union Jacks. Often well-aimed social, comment redemmed dull comedy for Chad Jeremy as In a mocking observation a the "Progress" of civilization. Ia a tune dedicated to an older man who was rude to them called "Manners Maieth Man," they ask the disapproving adult that all-too-poignant question: "Am I living symbol of your youth that might have been?" Insistent Jabi Their pleasantly counter-pointed voices blended with the insistent jabs of the harpsichord on a new tune called "You Are She," and renditions of "Distant Shores" and "A Summer Day" were the lyrical highlights of the concert. In tunes like this Chad and Jeremy score their freshest and most delightful successes. Very likely, however, the duo will go down in rock history for having discovered at this concert the of the sick "Teen-age Crema- nrrsKWMiAa lpkC.

Race Sequences On hand to discuss their "experiences In making the film "were two of its stars, Eva Saint and James Garner, and Grand "Prix 'driver Bob Bondur-ant, who, like Ginther, alio appears in. the picture.

Explaining how he ahot the movie's many racing sequences was electronics camera operator John Stephens. After more than a year's preparation with producer 'Edward Lewis, director John Frankenheimer, himself an amateur race driver, began filming last I'May la Monte Carlo, the first "of five European racking circuits that appear in the picture. According to sporting whiskers (for his next picture "The -Law. and Tombstone," actual races at Spa, Belgium; a Holland; Brands Hatch, and Monza, Italy, were made part of the film. "Only at uClerraont-Ferrand in did we have to 'stage 4 race especially for our The big challenge facing Frankenheimer and his crew was to get in close to capture the thrills and chills on the track itself.

To this end Stephens fc turned a Ford GT 40 and a Cobra capable of going 200 ro.p.h. into camera cars with seven different mounts for the 50-pound 'camera specially built by -Paaavislon.
