Survival For Black Women
Pop guitar wizard Earl Klugh makat hi* Portland dabut at Lawis b
Clark'a Pamplin Cantar on Tuasday. April 19 for ona performance
only at 9 p.m.
Earl Guitar Klugh
A master of the acoustic guitar, Klugh is both a songwriter and producer
as well as a versatile musician. His music is an unusual combination of pop,
jazz and rhythm and blues songs distinguished by his distinctive finger
picking style, which developed during his early association with such a di
verse group of musicians as Chick Corea. Yusef l.ateef, Laurindo Almeida,
(ieorge Benson and Ray Parker. Jr.
Klugh has been interested in music all of his life. At the age of three, he
picked out his first notes to Eddie Heywood's "Canadian Sunset" and by
the age of six, was teaching himself to play bv mimicking the melodies and
chords he heard on his collection of Chet Atkins albums.
A fter "apprenticing" with l.ateef. Benson and Corea as a teenager,
Klugh recorded his first album, Earl Klugh, in I976. Although Living Inside
Your Love, Linger Painting and Magic In Your Eyes followed shortly there
after, Klugh's career gained momentum in I979 with Heartstring and his
successful first collaboration with Bob James One on One. I9 8 0 ' s Dream
Come True solidified his prominent position among pop guitarists and Late
Night Guitar, an easy listening l.P comprised of such American standards
as "Tenderly" and "M ona Lisa," increased his popularity.
Klugh has since recorded Crazy Eor You, an album containing two of
his most popular songs, “ Twinkle." and “ Calypso Getaway.” His latest re
lease is his second equally successful collaboration with Bob James, Two o f
a Kind.
Tickets for “ An Evening with Earl Klugh," presented by Northwest Enter
tainment Consultants, are available at Meier & Erank. G .l. Joe’s and
Everybody's Records.
N ew Record Company
BEND, O R — Kn Oregon record company. C .I.S. Northwest Inc., has re
ceived national recognition within the highly competitive music recording
industry. This week's announcement of the new label's first nationally
charted hit record, "Reason to Believe,” by Portland's Wray Brothers
Band, will establish national credibility for the fledgling Northwest record
ing industry and for Northwest musicians, according to company president
Mike Connolly.
The Bend. Oregon based firm records and promotes only musicians from
the Northwest talent pool, which, says Connolly, has been largely ignored
by the major record labels. He feels that this week's breakthrough will cre
ate the opportunity to further expand what he termed "a completely new
clean industry" in the region.
In cooperation with the Portland Community College Afro-American
Cultural A ffairs Committee, the Black Women's Network o f Portland is
sponsoring a workshop entitled "H e a lth and Survival Skills for Black
W o m e n ." W orkshop registration is from 9 to 9:30 a m ., at the PCC
Cascade Campus, 703 N. Killingsworth, in the Cafeteria. The workshop
courses will begin promptly at 9:30 a m. Supervised child care will be pro
vided for children beginning at 3 years.
The workshop is being sponsored in tribute to Trina Deanne Hunter. The
17-year-old’s body was found in a marsh in Battleground, Washington, on
December 29, 1983.
Black Women's Network president Stephanie Michael says the workshop
is designed to meet the needs of black women of all ages in the community.
She said. "There are probably several young black teenage girls in the com
munity who have been frightened by the tragic death of Trina. The Network
is having this workshop to let all black women and men know that we can
not and should not tolerate such occurance to happen to our children. This
is not the first case of a young woman being caught up in a situation asking
for help and not receiving total support. Frankly, people in this community
arc tired of the open season policy toward our young women and children.
We plan for this workshop to be the first to address self-help solutions and
the reviving of respect in our community.
She added. " T h e workshop will address the perception o f how black
women sec themselves and what their role should be in the '80s in the recap
turing and enhancement of black cultural traditions. Too often in a con
tinued struggle simply for survival, it is easy to lose sight o f goals if you
have negative forces hitting you all at once. For instance, some black people
they can assimilate by simply wearing their hair a certain way, dressing a
certain way or simply by association with the "rig h t" people What usually
ends up happening is they begin to not like themselves as a person or a
group of ethnic people, because they are using a standard they can by no
means fit into. In essence they are committing what I term mental geno
cide.”
W orkshop courses to be offered are designed for the following age
groups: 6-8 year, 9-12 years, 13-19 years, and adults. Speakers featured in
clude: Gloria Flukcr, a psychiatric social worker at the Center for Commu
nity Mental Health/Conquest Center; Pearl Spears-Gray, Affirmative Ac
tion Director at Oregon State University; Freddye Pellet, executive director
for the Urban League of Portland; Mariah Taylor, R .N ., C .P .N .P .; Bar

Prevention Detail; Sandra Parker, educator and training consultant; Lisa
McConnell, a physical education and nutrition counselor; Avel Mayfield,
executive director for the Northeast Youth Service Center; and Joy and

During the noon hour Janice Barrett, a Multnom ah County Juvenile
Court counselor and co-ordinator for the options program will give some
remarks in tribute to Trina Hunter. Also. Sherriam Haggar Warren will re
