I didn t hear that one. If the rest of the more than 2,000 people attending noticed, they Review didn’t care. Ferguson and his 13-man orchestra got ovation after ovation, several with the audience standing. Naturally, Ferguson’s hit “Gonna Fly Now,” used in the movie “Rocky,” got a good part of the applause. Ferguson will he 50 years old this year, but you’d never guess that from his stage antics. Time after time after his solos he bounced back from the microphone and waved his arms wildly in a request for applause. He got it.

He blew notes that seemed to last for minutes, notes so high they faded into whis tles, and notes that followed such a rapid succession of other notes that it seemed impossible he was playing them live. The unfortunate thing about a group with one large name is that other members of it tend to be ig nored. Ferguson was ably sup ported. Although playing in the trumpet section in Maynard Ferguson’s or chestra must be as enviable a job as being a second-string running hack with O. J. Simpson on the first- string, the group had an excellent crew of back-ups.

The audience was most impressed by Bob Militello’s flute solo in one of the final numbers from the opera Pagliacci. Militello sang as much as he played the flute, and did both at the same time.

Poisoned lake remodeled; sailing may be land-bound By DANA GAKDINA The renovation of the Bryan Municipal Lake, located at the corner of College Avenue and Villa Maria, will force tin* Texas A&M University Sailing Club to find an alternate lake for sailing. The lake is being remodeled be cause arsenic tainted water seeped into it from Penmvalt Co. waste re tention ponds, leaving contaminated sediments. The two alternate* lakes being considered by the sailing club are Lake Summerville and the Bryan Utility Lake on Sandy Point Road outside of Bry an. Jerry Mainord, adviser for the sailing club, said there will he no place in the local community to teach sailing lessons for the two y ears Bry an Municipal Lake is being remodeled. The club teaches about 250 members a year to sail, he said. The Bryan Municipal Lake is about 1.5 miles from Texas AixM, while Lake- Sominerv ille is approx imately 25 miles, and the Bryan Utility Lake* about 13 miles. “The big problem is the ex pense, Mainord said. At the Bryan Utility Lake it costs S2 per car each day to get into the park, or S25 per ear annually . The lake has no facilities to store boats. Therefore, the club is faced with the expense of gas, and wear and tear on hauling their equipment to and from the lake. Lake Summerville has slips (dock ing spots) for the sailing club's 22 boats, hut the club can t afford to rent slips for that many boats. He said renting a slip costs Slo to S20. At the Bry an Municipal Lake the sailing club built its own boathouse. The sailing club lias to move the boathouse because its location is going to he razed. The sailing chib hasn t found a place to put the boathouse. Tlie sailing club plans to start using an alternate lake around March 15. “But teaching sailing will con tinue,’ Mainord said, “even if it goes dry . Greg Schertz; racing team cup- tain, said that the Bryan Miinki| Lake w as perfect for the sailing "because lots of people just n their bikes to Municipal Lake." The club couldn’t keep going! doesn t teach lessons, saidScW] Mainord said that the Bn; Municipal Lake will he sale much nicer after the renovation “Right now the water issM and unusable, Mainord said, "ft whole problem is where will we for two wars to teach lessons?"
