3ft The VANCOUVER SUN: May 25, 1971 PLAYS VELL IN CHESS MATCH SFU art collection on show in 3 parts Two-day rest perks up Taimanov adjournment in the fourth game. When the two players went home for the evening with Taimanov sealing his 41st move, he held a solid position as black. With pawn strength equal on both wings, Fischer was trying to break through in the centre with a rook and bishop against Taimanov's rook and knight. However, there seemed By BILL RAYNER A doctor's prescription for 48 hours' rest seemed to be just what Soviet Grand Master Mark Taimanov needed in his chess match with U.S. grandmaster Bobby Fischer.

Taimanov, grounded for high blood pressure, was in his best form of the 10-game match Tuesday, achieving good drawing chances at "I used to weigh 300 pounds, but then I was a lot taller!" world champion Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union. The game, postponed from Sunday because of Taimanov's illness, was played before an audience of close to 100 in the Student Union Building theatre at the University of B.C. It was to be continued today. If any adjournment help was needed, Fischer had available the services of U.S. grand master Larry Evans of Reno.

Evans, here officially to cover the match for a U.S. sports magazine, has" acted as Fisher's second in the past. Meanwhile, the seventh game of the match between grand masters Bent Larsen of Denmark and Wolfgang Uhl-mann of East Germany was adjourned on the 42nd move Tuesday. Larsen leads the series, 4-2. little chance he would breech 1 a 's meticulously constructed defences.

The game was played quickly, with adjournment coming after just four hours of play. Taimanov, in a variation of the Sicilian defence, swapped material early, leading to an equal position. Never venturing far afield, he allowed Fischer some spatial advantage while he shored up some weak pawns. Fischer exerted pressure on the centre but adroit reaction by Taimanov denied him the breakthrough he sought to black's seventh and eighth ranks. Fischer, with a 3-0 lead in the 10-game match, did not play as crisply as in the first three games.

He needs but 2'A points in the remaining seven games to advance to the semi-finals of the elimination series to pick a challenger to CHESS TITLE FOR BIYIASIS University of B.C. student CALLBOARD Centennial secondary school's drama club presents, as its centennial production, Noah, by Andre Obey, on May 31, June 1, 2, 7, 8, and 9. Ray Wallis is in the title role and Linda Svendsen is Noah's wife. Also featured are Rick Fox, Rob Morton, Pete Scales, Wendy Dinwoodie, Kathy MacDonald and Karen Blackburn. Place: Centennial High School Theatre.

Tickets may be reserved by phoning 936-7205. But who is Chris Sayers? He is from Calgary, according to the press release, and his monumental corn cob, resting horizontally against an idyllic cloud-dappled sky, is genuine Prairie pop. This observation could be duplicated among the artists from Montreal. Gino Lorcini, in his fabulously elegant four-part prints on plexiglass, whose geometric structures acquire depth through tonal manipulation, belongs to the hard-edge establishment. He is handled by the prestigious Godard Lefort Gallery and was among the artists commissioned to decorate the National Centre for the Performing Arts.

But Yves Rajotte reminds us that the non-cool tradition from which Riopelle stems persists in French Canada. His Hesperides, the mythical garden of the golden apples, has a surface of heavily crusted pigment like wind-swept flames. At the same time the local situation is being monitored. One notes, among other evidence, two major recent works by Shadbolt. Toni Onley is also outstandingly represented by three small pencil drawings and a monochromatic painting, one of the rare occasions when his cur-' rent work in this medium equals his silkscreens.

But one is surprised that advantage was not taken of the retrospectives of drawings and prints by Claude Breeze and Michael Morris to correct some of the imbalance of eight prints by John K. Esler of Calgary. D'Arcy Henderson's drawing-diagram in white chalk on black paper is both fascinating in itself and as a promise of expansion of the collection, for it is a variation on a fibreglass sculpture to be erected on SFU's East Concourse mall. It should be added that in accordance with the university's policy of disseminating art throughout the Campus, some parts of the Canadian collection are in the library. Fred Herzog's 51 color photos of urban icons are in the second floor lounge, and the Centennial Suite of silkscreens by B.C.

artists is in the fourth floor lounge. By JOAN LOWNDES Sun Art Critic The quiet achievement of Simon' Fraser University, which since 1965 has acquired more than 250 works by Canadian and other artists, can be gauged through a series of three summer-long exhibitions. Part on view until June 4, consists of an up-to-date review of the Canadian selections. Part II, from June 8 to July 2, will be devoted to international artists while Part III, from Aug. 3-27, will bring back the ever-popular Eskimo prints.

Although much of this collection has already been seen on the campus, it is the first time it has been presented as an entity. Turning points in its formation were the appointment last year of Jim Felter as curator, with opportunities through attendance at museum conferences to travel and thereby buy works by artists from Montreal, Toronto, Halifax and Calgary. Another important factor has been the Lafarge Centennial Gift, which has provided money for 25 of the paintings and graphics now hanging in the SFU Gallery. And the gallery itself, as opposed to the corridors on either side of the university's theatre, which so long served as a makeshift, is a worthy showcase for a permanent -collection. What then is the character of the Canadian section? It is an unorthodox mixture of artists of national reputation and others who (to me at least) are unknown.

This argues an independent taste, unafraid to support those who have not yet received the seals of approval of artscanada, the National Gallery, the VAG, and the like. For example, one recognizes with joy Gordon Rayner'S dazzling litho made at the print workshop of the Nova Scotia College of Art and reproduced in a special color fold-out by artscanada.

Stop dreaming joining' ROCK FESTIVAL ANNOUNCED SEATTLE (AP) A group called Sunrise 71 unveiled plans Tuesday for a three-day rock festival next month in Grant County, and possibly a second event later in the year. Ron Bozarth, a spokesman for the group, said a lease-purchase agreement was signed Jan. 11 for 1,800 acres of pastureland between Odessa and Ephrata along Washington Highway 28. He said backers will comply with all local and county ordinances, including obtaining a $2,500 permit.

The festival is planned for June 18-20, and Bozarth said a second festival might be held later in the year if the June event is successful. Organizers said 25 local rock bands have been signed to play, and eight to 10 "name" groups are expected to take part. SHOW TIMES TONIGHT MUSIC 8:30, Terry Fullerton, organ recital.

He said in an interview Tuesday that he never intended that the sewage should go into the river, and has ordered consulting engineers studying disposal methods for his department to withdraw their application for a Pollution Control Board permit for this type of disposal. Kiernan acknowledged that since the permit application was published in the B.C. Gazette two weeks ago he has received protests from persons in the area which would be affected. The application was to dump up to 28,000 gallons of effluent a day into the river from the lodge operation, after primary and secondary treatment of the waste. When asked about the application on May 12, he said only that he would insist that the effluent receive 100 per cent treatment before discharge.

Tuesday, the minister said that consulting engineers ordered to propose sewage disposal systems as part of revamping and expanding the lodge facilities had applied for the permit without his knowledge, even though they were required to do so by provincial law. "Had the matter come to my attention before the permit was applied for I would have ordered them to come up with some alternative disposal system," Kiernan said.

In some provinces too the telephone companies are itching to get in on the cable action. "We've taken the position not to grant licences to common carriers. In the Act of Parliament which created Bell, it was established they should not get into broadcasting.

We have applied the same philosophy. "Besides, they weren't interested 15 years ago when the little guys risked their money and energy in a new concept. It's an ethical problem. These people have done a job. Now that it works we can't turn around and transfer it to the big companies.

That's the philosophy of the commission." as reflections of the atmosphere of the country. If our goals are too ambitious and the revenues are down, this will certainly affect quality. We have relaxed the rulings now because revenues are down, and we should propose adjustments each year. It's still a proposal, subject to public hearing, but yes, that's the reason," Juneau doesn't like to think that nationalizing the cable systems would be an answer. "There will be a tendency fof larger groups to form, but whether that will lead to a Crown corporation will depend on cable's effectiveness, if a worthwhile job is being done.

If the job is done effectively, if the competition with U.S. channels problem is solved, this kind of talk will disappear.

Call now, don't delay, will fill fast during the summer months. 777 Hornby Street Vancouver, B.C., Canada Name Address Still at breakfast with Pierre Juneau, chairman of the Canadian Radio Television Commission: Recently the Department of Communications authorized approval in principle for 20-channel cable systems, and now it's up to the CRTC to license such systems. "We'll consider it when we receive application Juneau said. "We must see first if the cable systems apply fof them. I don't think we'll push for it, or create any obstacles either.

Certainly in regions like Montreal, where everything has to be doubled, there aren't enough cable channels. And if the provinces use cable for education, if they need multiple channels for elementary, secondary and university levels of education, it will be necessary very soon to have a cable system with a larger capacity." Juneau also agrees that the commission cannot get away with banning U.S. channels in Canada. "The facts of life indicate that we must find ways to solve that problem other than banning U.S. stations.

The problem is one of threshold. The audiences reached in Canada through U.S. stations really interest advertisers. After all, 75 per cent of the ads come from multi-national organizations who could decide to advertise with the U.S. outlets and pick up Canadian buyers that way." There is concern too about Canadian advertising money going directly to U.S.

stations like KVOS in Bellingham. "We could recommend a change in the tax laws, but we're not sure it would be an effective enough deterrent. And it's not within our authority to change the tax laws directly." Juneau isn't happy either with the system the CRTC has used to determine Canadian content on television. "We have given a lot of thought to developing a mathematical formula for a point system, but it gets involved in quality judgment of programs, and that's a very difficult thing for us to do. We have too much work to do and we always have to watch for the dangers of getting bogged down in one thing, and maybe in future years things will improve.

At the moment we have to rely on a crude system and do things merely to establish objectives. Let's face it, to say 50 per cent Canadian content, is a crude system, and we can only hope the figure is not too high. Or else all we'll get is a lot of cheap programs.
