Jackson Sisters climb to stardom
The Jackson Sisters do
just about everything but
tumblesault off the stage!
And on very special nighty. if
you’re really lucky, you may
even catch them doing just
that.
Barely 11 is Gennie who
leads the Jackson brigade
front and center, with sister
Rae a 13 year old. the one
with the far away gaze in
her eyes, followed by Pat
who is 14, Lyn 15. and
Jackie, the eldest at 16.
The girls sway dance steps
the Temptations would be
jealous of and sing up a
veritable storm; taking their
simple songs and doing them
up their own way. The girls
had their first hit with the
P rophesy R ecords sin gle
"Why Can't We Be (More
Than Friends)", arranged by
Paul Riser, who shared a
Grammy Award with the
Temptations for arranging
"Pappa Was A R olling
Stone", and their latest Pro­
phesy smash “I Believe in
Miracles”.

Sharing and keeping the
faith with the soon to be
starlett quintet and Papa and
Mama Jackson are their
founders and current man
agers, Oscar Williams and
Elaine Linett.
Explains a
petite Ms. Linett backstage
at a recent sisters concert
revival, "We spotted them at
a Mobil Oil Talent Show and
it was love at first sight.
They did a four part har
mony and they all switched
leads every other song. We
just couldn't resist them.”
Living in Compton (a sub
urb of Los Angeles) amid
volleyball matches and math
tests, the girls were thrown
into showbiz, playing the big
time with the likes of Al
Green, Richard Pryor, Billy
Paul and Johnny Mathis.
Adds Ms. Lintett “The girls
seem unaffected by it all.
T hey've played with the
cream of the crop and seem
unruffled by all the showbiz
glamour. Singing in front of
18,000 at the L.A. Forum is
no mean feat for an 11 year
old."
With “I Relieve in Mir
acles” bubbling in the in­
dustries hot 100, and an up
tempo, dance kicking Jack
son Sisters LP soon to come,
it seems eminent that it
won’t take a miracle' for the
girls to go all the way. "Hard
work and a love for singing"
are the ingredients and like
Jackie says, “ a little bit of
faith can't hurt either."

“is about a boy girl partner
ship that everybody thinks
won't work out. But the girl
in the song believes her love
is going to come back be
cause she believes in mira
cles.
Sure enough in the
end. her prayers are an­
swered. After all. everybody
has to have a little faith,
even characters in songs.”

The play, written in 1855,
is typical of the great old
m elodram as when Gideon
Bloodgood. the play's villian.
steals a sum of money from
Captain Fairweather and uses
it to keep himself from going
under in the financial reces
sion of 1847. Ten years later
the theft is discovered, the
villian forgiven and virtue is
triumphant once again, ac
cording to Asher Wilson, the
play's director and head of
PSU's theater arts depart
ment.
The most popular of Dion
Boucicault’s many molo-
dramas, the play has been
produced by play pirates in
all capitals of the western
world under a variety of
titles, according to Wilson.
T ickets for the final
coaster production are avail­
able at the door.
Arthur Ashe

lions of world wide tennis
fans, has broken the runner
up ice. First, the Richmond

tional Tennis Championships,

vet’s 1973 winnings to $103,
000.
Further, Ashe broke
