Battalion Staff
Combining a clean, hard
jnd with a smooth style and
Iwork, Huey Lewis and the
Is managed to steal the show
jrsday night.
he News were opening for
Jett and the Blackhearts,
fifter a surprisingly short in-
rnihsion, got the crowd going,
ut imly alter the News had
pied it from the dead.
■he News, bless their red
orK fought an uphill battle
jt never gave up. The audi-
ice — it really can’t be called a
Bud or a mob — had to be
Med and nudged out of its
lathy, but the News finally illi-
I a response, one that was
ill-earned.
■nev and his band came
Bing gifts Thursday night —
nlfessional ability, a good atti-
Rand a new song. The song,
Ha ng on a Thin Line” was
ilcated to veterans, an
jpnipriate dedication so near
She Memorial Student Center,
tldn’t seem to be appreciated,
laugh.
■An a cappela version of
jnn Gang” followed “Thin
inc and was truly outstanding,
jiai finally brought the audi-
nee to life and the News were
tick to capitalize on the
urge.
■fose on the heels of “Chain
■g” came the MTV hit —
■thing the audience was
jRliarwith — “Do You Believe
n Love.” The smooth sax of
Johnny Cola, the rousing drums
of Bill Gibson, the hard working
lead of Chris Hayes and — prob
ably most of all — the familiar
lyrics brought the audience to its
feet.
The News closed the show
with “Working For A Livin,” fol
lowed by a single encore.
Then came the Blackhearts,
much to the audience’s delight.
Before even the first note,
Jett set the pace for the show.
Much to the dismay of the secur
ity personnel, she invited the au
dience up front, pinning the
Town Hallers behind the stage
barricade. After half-hearted
attempts to make the excited
fans return to their seats, the
guards gave up and concen
trated their energy on making
sure that nobody, but nobody,
touched the barrier.
Jett started the concert off
fast with “Bad Reputation,” fol
lowed closely by “Run Away,”
completely infecting the stu
dents around the stage — mostly
junior high and high schoolers.
It took a while, but the infection
spread.
It surged briefly with “Nag,”
spread further with “Love Is
Pain,” and became irreversibly
malignant with “I Love Rock ’N
Roll.” The high point of the
show was probably “Do You
Wanna Touch Me.” Jett played
the audience masterfully. She
didn’t ask for audience partici
pation — she demanded it.
Her demands were gladly
met.
CS Council to apply
for construction grant
by David Marchand
Battalion Reporter
The College Station City
Council Thursday night voted
to apply for a $1.74 million fed
eral grant that could fund the
construction of 68 housing units
for low and moderate income
families.
This grant for a community
development program, which
was started in 1974 to replace
several federal programs, in
cludes about $31)0,000 for the
improvement of streets and gut
ters. About $700,000 of the
grant would be used for housing
construction.
The council also held a public
hearing on a proposed compre
hensive plan for the city which
includes the extension of Appo-
matox from State Highway 30 to
Emerald Parkway.
Several citizens voiced dis
approval of the extension which
would join the Emerald Forest,
Winwood and Raintree subdivi
sions. Creation of this type of
thoroughfare, they said, would
increase risks to pedestrians and
bycyclists.
Ricky Griffin, 7718 Appoma-
tox, urged the council to enact
part of the plan which calls for
“frequent use of citizens’ advis
ory committees” to help resolve
this question.
H. A. Luther, 614 Welch
Ave., objected to the widening
of that street. He presented a
petition from nearby property
owners who also objected to the
expansion.
Harriet Martin’s complaint
that her property on Park Place
has been under water during
rainstorms over the past 16
years prompted City Manager
North B. Bardell to promise that
the city would investigate.
In other business, the council
rezoned about 13 acres along
University Drive east of Tarrow
Street from a single family re
sidential district to administra
tive-professional and apart
ments low density districts.
