City Creator is for those who can't afford
Simcity but want to try their hand at building
city of their own. While it lacks the ability to
bring the city to life. City Creator allows visi
tors to design a city that is complete with
roads, buildings, cars and people. It only
requires a little imagination, a little patience
and a whole lot of time.
City Creators allows users to build two
types of cities: Blankton (a city set in spring,
summer or fall) or Snoland (a city in the win
ter, covered in snow). The task is simple: Draj
and drop the items needed to build the city int

ALEXANDER
Jason Alexander
teaches classes at
Southern California
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Jason
Alexander, best known as the
underachieving George Costanza
on "Seinfeld"' has a new role —
he's a college professor.
Alexander,
who dropped
out of Boston
University in
his junior year
to pursue act
ing, has been
sharing his
smarts this
term with
undergradu
ates at the University of Southern
California as the School of
Theatre's first George Burns
Visiting professor.
Star-struck twentysome-
things enrolled in the acting
class will have the chance to
audition their talent before an
invited audience of agents,
actors and directors later this
semester.
Alexander, who was earning
$600,000 per episode by the
end of "Seinfeld" cautions his
students to work hard and not
to try and copy his success.
"I say, 'Look, if you are look
ing for my career, good luck, I
can't tell you how to get it,"'
Alexander told the Los Angeles
Times. "I stepped in the right
puddle. Nobody thought
'Seinfeld' would be 'Seinfeld'."
Alexander will be starring on
stage soon as Max Bialystock
PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
in the Los Angeles production
of "The Producers."
Fans bid for items
owned by advice
columnist Landers
CHICAGO (AP) — Fans of Ann
Landers can bid for hundreds
of items owned by the late
columnist, including a type
writer, desk, Cadillac and auto
graphed books.
E p p i e
Lederer, r
known as
Ann Landers,
died in June
at the age of
83. Her 11 -
room Lake
Shore Drive
apartment
was filled
with possessions that an Elgin
auction house will put up for
bid Nov. 23-24.
Her electronic IBM typewriter
and the desk it sat on will be on
the block, along with more than
40 owl statues that people gave
Lederer for her wise advice, said
Kevin Bunte, president of Bunte
Auction Services.
Her black 1992 Cadillac
Brougham, with the license
plate AL 55 — for the year she
started her column — may
fetch in the "upper teens,"
Bunte said.
The auction also offers
dozens of books signed by
famous authors and celebri
ties, from Erma Bombeck to
Richard M. Nixon.
