Page 4/September 11,1961—Dally Collegian Bucket .... Continued from page 3 sandwiches, popcorn and home¬ made burrttos. The Bucket is open Mondays through Fridays, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. 'Some of the students come in here and stay for hours,' said Buddie. 'We've tried to get away from the pizza-type _* atmosphere, and have tried to create a more relaxed environ¬ ment so that students will feel comfortable to stay here for long periods of time." Some of the changes that Buddie has made in The Bucket's decor include hanging a full-sized mural on the back wall depicting a forest scene, painting the yellow walls in a soft, subdued green, and adding dark brown cork board with mirrored in¬ lays along the side walls. "I really like the atmosphere in here," said 22-year-old Mark Scott. *l come in here often to study or watch TV. The people are nice and they've got the best burritos in town." 'I think the best part 'These are just other students like you' about having a bar on cam¬ pus is that you can meet your fellow students, * said CSUF student Ann Roberts. "Sometimes I am apprehensive to talk to people in bars in the Fresno area because you never know if the per¬ son is a weirdo. But here, these are just other students like you so it' s easy to make friends." Dahlgren said The Bucket draws its crowds primarily from the CSUF student and faculty population. Very few individuals come into The Bucket that are not enrol led at CSUF, he said. "Even the band members are associated with Fresno State," Dahlgren said. 'The members of Brass Ackwards are students here, and The Shooz was put together by one of the guys that works here, who also plays in the band." Buddie said that Thursday and Friday nights are the Friends sometimes question your taste in movies. But they'll see them with you anyway. most popular nights at The Bucket due to the live music. The bands play top-40 hits along with some original material from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. "It got so crowded in here when the bands played, we found it necessary to open the cafeteria," Dahlgren said. "Now the band sets up in the cafeteria, we mark off a dance floor, have two wai¬ tresses working both rooms, and it's great!" "The first time I came into The Bucket was to hear one of the bands,' said Louise Toschi. "I ended up dancing until The Bucket closed." Buddie said she anticipates the crowds to continue grow¬ ing. "We may move the location of The Bucket in the future so that we can enlarge its size," Buddie said, "but noth¬ ing definite has been planned at this point." Dally Collegian-September 11,1981 /Page 5 JOSTEN'Sr Musk \Pretenders top Benatar&Co. By Bret Kofford ...Andnow, the combatants in 1981 's battle for the female version of the rock and roll championship. In this corner at 4'11", weighing 95 pounds, from Long Island, New York, in the black danskins.. .Pat Benatar. And in this corner weighing approxi¬ mately 105 pounds, from Akron, Ohio, now singing Out of London, England, wearing the black spandex pants and a constant sneer, from the Pretenders... Chrissie Hynde. Until just a few years ago, rock and roll was dominated by swaggering males. But with the impetus of the new wave movement and the subsequent smashing of stale institutions, many women found their way to the spotlight. Women like former folkle Robin Lane and her band The Chartbusters, Martha Davis of The Motels, Carolyne Mas, Ellen Foley and most recently Deborah lyall of Romeo Void, Holly Vincent of Holly and The Italians and an all girl group, The Go-Go's, who have become the darlings of the Los Angeles music scene. There have always been a few women in the forefront of rocktGrace Slick prob¬ ably stands out above the rest) but never has the influx of women been so thick as in the last few years. ■, Unfortunately the genre of hard rock (a.k.a. heavy metal) has not recently pro¬ duced any significant female-led group, (although Heart drearily hangs on). About the closest thing to a feminine fronted heavy metal band is Spider, a group sometimes categorized as New Wave, and co-fronted by a man. Out of all of these women, three cap¬ tured most of the country's attention. Pat Benatar, Chrissie Hynde and Deb¬ orah Harry of Blondie. Harry has re¬ cently gone to explore dance music with a record produced by Nil I Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of Chic and is there¬ fore temporarily disqualified from the championship. Both Benatar and Hynde and her Pretenders released albums this sum¬ mer. Both records have sold briskly and served to propel these ladies even further toward the never-never land of . superstardom. Artistically, Benatar's Precious Time does not rate with Pretendets II. It's terribly predictable, sounding too much like her first two LP's. Almost every song is set at the same upbeat pace and songwriter-guitarist Neil Ceraldo, Benatar's boyfriend, feels obligated to indulge in a predictable solo on six of nine songs. Still, Precious Time is not a bad record. The lyrics sometimes border on intelligence, 'Hard To Believe' Yesterday's a by-line Words upon a page Tomorrow is a deadline Sudden, and It strange. 'Evil Genius' has some fine moments and 'Promises In The Dark,* 'Fire and Ice,' 'Just Like Me* and 'Take It Anyway You Want It" have all been FM hits. And Benatar's octave voice and oversinging style are still in fine form. What many don't realize is that this really isn't Benatar's group. Nell Geraldo is the driving force behind the Benatar records. Although Benatar co-writes three songs on Precious Time, she is basically just the face, body and voice Ceraldo needs to promote his work. But Chrissie Hynde is the unquestion¬ able leader of Trie Pretenders. It's her band. She writes the songs, she sings the songs and I'm sure she makes most of the decisions.

It is not as accessible a record as the first one and the songs simply aren't as good. Chrissie Hynde still plays the growling tough girl on Pretenders II in songs like the obnoxious 'Bad Boys Cet Spanked' and 'Pack It Up.* This act, if it is one, may soon wear thin.

'Body Heat' is an erotic, sizzling thriller that works from beginning to end. Although the idea itself is not original (remember T944's 'Double Indemnity* with Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray?), the film still works because of a finely constructed screen¬ play and superb performances. The story revolves around Racine (played by William Hurt), a small-time, two-bit lawyer in a sleepy Florida town. A likeable young guy with a penchant for women, his life is changed forever one night when he meets Matty Walker. It's lust at first sight. Matty (played by Kathleen Turner) is the wife of a big and powerful business¬ man, Edmond Walker, who is away from home most of the time. Seemingly lonely and frustrated, she allows Ned into her life, and they immediately be¬ come lovers.

A divorce, though, would leave Matty penniless, and she is not about to live a life of poverty, not even for the man she loves. Ned and Matty decide to kill Edmond. 'We're going to kill him,' Ned says. "You knew it was coming. It's the only way we can have what we want." 'And, if we're not careful,* he says, 'it's going to be the last real thing we do.* Edmond is a dead man. That much the audience instinctively knows, but from there, 'Body Heat* sryty takes a myriad of twists and turns, which leave the audi¬ ence mesmerized. What is most surprising about this film is Its creative source. It was writ¬ ten and directed by Lawrence Kasdan, who wrote the screenplay for this year's biggest smash so far, 'Raiders of the Lost Ark.' With 'Body Heat,' Kasdan not only displays his writing ability, but his talent for creating effective visual images as well. From the film's open¬ ing shot, the story permeates with heat. Even the early morning fog looks more like steam from a sauna than fog. Characters sweat and languish under a Florida heatwave. Talk is trite and tempers are short. As Ned's detective friend, Oscar, says, 'Pretty soon people start to break the rules 'cause it's.emergency time.* Kasdan confidently directs the story at a near-perfect pace. At first, the two lovers are casual and physical, with FILM continued on page 8 CORRECTION The Judy Judy Judy's ad of Sept. 10 should have been for the Judy Junior Burger.
