The “tackle” wasn’t enough to stop Fowler from winning its district championship with a 12-0 victory. “A fullout, hardass, patent leather rock and roll band” de scribes Jo Jo Gunne in the words of a totally impartial judge, namely their very own record company.

Jay Ferguson was the author of Spirit’s “Fresh Garbage,” “Mr. Skin,” “Uncle Jack,” “Street Norm” and some other strangles. When he departed, he kept both the bass player, Mark An des, and his odd musical inclina- ations. Along with Mark’s broth er, Matt, and drummer Curley Smith, he put together the bunch known as Jo Jo Gunne. Furgeson is the big man in the group. His loud, masculine vo cals are the guiding force of their debut album, “Jo Jo Gunne.” His influence is detectable in everything from the recurring minor key harmonies to the song titles (“Shake That Fat,” “Bar- stow Blue Eyes”). “Run, Run, Run” is the best track on the record. It, along with “Fat,” have been released as singles. “Run” is plenty en thusiastic, with precision remi niscent of the old Spirit I. Actually, half the Jo Jo Gunne album could pass for Spirit I, it sounds so familiar. Gunne’s music is more straight forward than Ferguson’s past efforts, but the lyrics sound too much like Robert Crumb to make much sense. Still, Jo Jo Gunne is by far the better of the two Spirit splinters, even if they may not live up to the Chuck Berry rocking image they’re billed as. I just read where Ed Cassady has left the “new Spirit” he was heading up. His departure will probably finish the group off, as he was about all their first and only album, “Feedback,” had go ing for it. In case anyone is still wonder ing what is so interesting about the three men who dubbed in for the singing Munchkins in “The Wizard of Oz,” nothing except that 30 years later the same three voices were used for Elvis Presley’s brothers in his flick “Love Me Tender.” Speaking of interesting facts, everyone knows that Three Dog Night was not the first group to record the tune “Mama Told Me Not To Come.” But, the original version wasn’t by Randy New man, who wrote, it either. The first recording was made in late 1967 by Eric Burdon and the Animals, back when Three Dog Night was just a cold eve ning in Australia. AUSTIN, Tex. <A>>—The Texas Legislature petitioned Congress Tuesday to call a constitutional convention to prohibit busing to achieve racial balance in public schools. The Senate approved the reso lution by voice vote after sus pending the rules to take it up. The House voted for it 106-21 Monday. The key Senate vote was on suspension of the rules. Two- thirds of those present and vot ing were needed, and that’s pre cisely what supporters of the measure got—18-9. Voting to suspend—and there fore for the constitutional con vention — were A i k i n, Bates, Beckworth, Blanchard, Bridges, Connally, Creighton, Hall, Har ris, Herring, Hightower, Koth- mann, Patman, Tippen, Sherman, Snelson, Watson and Word. Voting against were Bernal, Brooks, Harrington, Jordan, Ken- nard, Mauzy, McKool, Schwartz and Wallace. Sen. A. R. Schwartz of Galves ton offered an amendment that called upon Congress to pass a uniform law on busing for the entire nation and not call a con stitutional convention. order that the rules prohibited action on any bill in the last 24 hours of a legislative session ex cept conference committee re ports and correction of errors. It was that rule that Sen. Wayne Connally of Floresville successfully moved to suspend on the 18-9 vote. Miss Jordan argued that bus ing ought not to be in the U. S. Constitution.
