revisions to raise sagging ratings.The
lower the ratings go the more outrageous
the plots become. The off-screen con­
niving and manipulative way the cast
carries on their liaisons is hilarious. The
acting will make you smile. The over
acting will make you laugh out loud.
It is rare when a movie can boast of
having three academy award winners.
Sally Field plays Celeste Talbert, the
soaps most popular, yet insecure star.
Celeste goes to the local shopping cen­
ters when she needs an ego recharging.
Celeste takes the soap opera’s writer
and her best friend Rose Schwartz
(Whoopie Goldberg) to “ work” the
crowd. Whoopie reminds us why she
won an academy award with a stellar
supporting role performance as the only
sane person in an insane business. The
comedy is a little slow taking off, but
when Kevin Kline shows up in a sec­
ond-rate dinner theater you’ll be glad
you came to the movie.

The eighth annual Stern wheeler
Days celebration promises to be the
highlight of the Columbia Gorge this
summer.
Sponsored by the Columbia Gorge
Lions Club, with both financial and
man-power assistance for many local
businesses and citizens, as well as the
City and Port of Cascade Locks.
Two and a half days of fun and
entertainment for all. Kids games and
rides; wine, cheese and smoked salmon
tasting; food and craft booths; Stem­
wheeler rides; and the best yet parade
which starts at 11:00 AM on Saturday,
June 22nd.
There will be a raffle drawing for a
sail board outfit. Several local organi­
zations will also be having drawings
for prizes at their booths during the
festival.
Thunder Island will be the week­
end home for the Mountain Men, who
will be dressed in their traditional cos­
tumes. They promise more displays
and entertainment than ever this year.
There will be Sternwheeler Days
hats and T-shirts for sale at the infor­
mation booth on the festival grounds.
Souvenir programs are available from,
many businesses as well as in the infor­
mation booth. We ask that you support
the celebration.
Admission to the festival grounds
are free. This would be a good weekend
to invite your friends or relatives to
visit. Camping facilities are available
in the park. Marine Park looks better
than ever this year. Many improve­
ments can be seen around the visitor
center and the Stemwheeler loading
area.
Come and help us welcome the
Stemwheeler back to Cascade Locks.
Last year’s attendance was over 18,500
persons. We expect more this year.
Pioneer Courthouse Square
It’s big. It’s crunchy. It’s smooth.
It’s the eighth year of Pioneer Court­
house Square’s Peanut Butter and Jam
Sessions. Downtown Portland’s oldest
outdoor music series, sponsored by The
Portland Business Journal and U.S.
Banks, kicks off at noon on Thursday,
June 13th, and continues on Tuesdays
and Thursdays through August 15.
Like your peanut butter crunchy?
Try the rockin’ blues o f the Blubinos,
the roadhouse stomp of The Switch-
masters, the rootsy rock of Mystery
Train, or the chunky reggae backbeat
of Dub Squad.
Smooth more your style ? Noth­
ing’s smoother than Lloyd Jones’soul,
the deft picking of the nationally re-
known Country Gazette, or the slinky
strut of Paulette N Power.
And Peanut Butter and Jam has a
worldwide flavor. Kotoja, a twelve-
piece Afro-beat band and the spicy
eleven-piece salas of Conjunto Allegre
are just two of the treats. W e’re even
serving up some savory downhome
Barbeque (Orchestra) with hot jug jazz.
A special child’s portion is avail­
able on July 30th, when T.& O. Rail­
im a g e
road, Albert Alter and hungry sharks
from OMSI stir up a savory mix of
music, mime and museum mayhem.
With 18 shows to choose from, featur­
ing the best in blues, worldbeat, coun­
try and rock, you’re sure to find some­
thing to your taste.
For your tastebuds, Paradise Bak­
ery is cooking up a record breaking
eight-foot peanut butter and jam
cookie.lt will join the nutty and infec­
tious Crazy Eights at Center stage on
June 13th, our eighth year season opener.
And who says there’s no such
thing as a free lunch? Opening day
features a drawing with prizes from
the food folks at Cascades in Pioneer
Place. Someone will win lunch from
Cascades for every Tuesday concert,
somebody gets lunch on Thursdays,
and one lucky and well-fed individual
wins lunch for every Tuesday and
Thursday of the series.
You don’t have to be president to
win. Just be there opening day, June
13, and throughout the summer. Join
us at noon for lunch and tasty tunes.
It’s going to be a mouthful.

Psychologists say,’’Soap Opera
viewers like to see somebody whose
life is worse than their own” . In
“ Soapdish” , not only are the lives of
‘The Sun Also Sets’ soap opers charac­
ters worse than the viewers’, it turns out
that the stars’ real lives are worse than
the viewers.
“ Soapdish” is a zany, satiric look
