Crossroads lV Telegulde,May 1, 1 985 -Page 87 That's Show Biz! By Vonnie Lee - In an entertainment woad quickly being taken over by video popularity, it was inevitable that there would be a National Academy of Video Arts and Sciences, presenting awards for the best in their field. In a special television show, taped for showing later, the best videos were honored in Hollywood for the third consecutive year. c, Again, the keynote was excitement, as kooky bombshell Cyndi Lauper took most of the major awards, including best pop video, top female per- formance, best direction and best editing for her video, "Time After Time". Another Lauper video, "She Bop", claimed awards for best choreography and best costume design. In her categories, Lauper was competing with Tina Turner, Sheila E., Chaim Khan and Patty Smyth. In the male video category, Weird Al Yankovic's "Eat It" defeated ..performers like Bruce Springsteen, Don Henley and George Michael. Huey Lewis and The News was named the best video group performers; "When Doves Cry" by prince was the best soul video; and Moe Bandy and Joe Stampley had the best country video, "Where's The Dress". 0'0-0 The death of Foster Hewitt last week, as National Hockey League teams were' fighting to the Stanley Cup finish, brought back many fond memories of happy times spent beside the radio or in front of the television set, watching and listening to Canada's favorite sport. He brought the play to life when radio was the only form of entertainment in the homes of Canadians; and he made fans feel they were right there in the Gardens with him. When Hewitt began his announcing career in the Gardens gondola, the only way to his little corner was a precarious catwalk high above the ice level. He was so nervousthe first few times, he crawled on his hands and knees. From his little perch, he- made the Gardens his domain, com- menting on play in every corner of the ice, not missing a trick. What made Hewitt so. successful was his obvious love of the game. When it became more than he could handle, we looked forward to hearing his son Bill call the plays. But illness a few years ago forced Bill to relinquish the job and the Hewitt name had to bow out of Hockey Night in Canada. Hewitt was in his early 80s and had suffered for some time from the degenerative brain disease, Alzheimer's, which came between him and everything and everyone he loved in his earthly life. . Scarecrow and Mrs.King to Europe this season She can't remember the password and follow her in- stincts instead of standard operating . procedure.

Together they've survived kidnapping, ticking bombs, shoot-outs, and her mother's undying curiosity about Amanda's sudden , disap- pearances. But, if Scarecrow still isn't convinced she's full-fledged agent material, he knows in his heart that Mrs. King's a force to be reckoned with. `Scarecrow and Mrs. King' stars Kate Jackson and Bruce Boxleitner in the title roles.

Bruce loved the stage experience and received his first break at the Ivanhoe. Theatre in a local hit play, "Status Quo Vadis". "I got the lead part," Bruce re- called, "when the actor play- ing therole began giving the company a bit of trouble, and a week later I was play- ing the role.
