Clapton
comes
back
by George Bacso
Associate Features Editor
After years of inactivity, Eric Clapton's
return to the concert stage last year was
greeted with wild enthusiasm. But Clapton's
comeback tour had its rough spots and weak
moments. Less than a year after his famous
return to the concert stage, Clapton is back
again on an international tour which took
him to the Greensboro Coliseum last
Saturday.
Clapton fanatics were disappointed last
year when their guitar idol insisted upon
playing down his famous hits of the past in
favor of the more laid-back, reggae
influenced music which has made up his last
two studio efforts. Many preferred to stay
behind and wear down the grooves in their
old Cream and Blind Faith and Derek and
the Dominoes albums while Clapton went
off into another new direction.
But "Slowhand" immediately proved to a
less than capacity crowd at Greensboro that
he has not forgotten his illustrious past,
tearing into his biggest hit "Layla," as soon
as he set foot on stage. The song set the pace
for the evening, as Clapton and his band
played a sterling set of greatest hits.
"Knockin on Heaven's Door," Clapton's
new cover of the Dylan classic, was received
warmly. Clapton shied away from the music
found on his last two LP's however,
performing only three cuts from them.
"Further Down the Road." which can be
found on the just-released live LP, E.C. Was
Here, found the band in fine form,
displaying a tightness which was evident
throughout the evening.

Eric Clapton
But not only is Clapton's back-up group
now a solid unit together, seperately they
also shine. Dick Sims' keyboards, with
greater emphasis on synthesizer than in the
past, to embellish the basic beat laid down by
the Carl Radle (bass) Jamie Oldaker
(drums) rythym section.
And Yvonne Elliman, whose second solo
album is now in the stores, proved she c an do
far more than sing back-up.
After introducing her, Clapton handed
Elliman his guitar and walked offstage.
Elliman then launched into a stunning
version of Stevie Windwood's "Can'l Find
My Way Home," matching her soaring vocal
reaches with searing guitar licks.

Second guitarist George Tarry also was
given a short solo spot in mid-song and
responded with a very Claptonesque six
string excursion.
The performance touched on all musical
bases, with Clapton returning home to his
blues roots. "Key to the Highway," a Freddie
King song, was given a face-lifting and
extended to allow the guitarist plenty of
room to maneuver.
A greatly-lengthened version of "Badge"
also highlighted the performance, with
Clapton loose, happy and rockin and rollin.
But Clapton's best solo of the night came
during"Little Wing," the Jtmi Hendrix tune.
Clapton turned the number into a
testimonial to Hendrix and reverently
imitated and expanded upon the late
axeman's licks perfectly.
Clapton closed his scheduled set for the
night with a somewhat different but
improved "1 Shot the Sheriff," which was
transformed from a mere pop tune by the
band's excellent musicianship.
After more than five minutes of steady
applause, Clapton responded to the
audience's encore demands by returning to
play a blistering ten-minute version of "Let it
Rain." After almost two hours of solid blues,
rock, reggae, and ballads, Clapton left the
Greensboro stage smiling and waving.

from the wires of United Press International
TELAVIV (UPI) An Israeli army force
speared deep into Lebanon Thursday,
battling Palestinian guerrillas on the
outskirts of the port city of Sidon, about 35
miles north of the Israeli-Lebanese border,
the Israeli military command reported.
A Palestinian spokesperson in Beirut said
the assault was carried out by seaborne
forces, and that it was repelled. It was the
third consecutive day of Israeli attacks
against Palestinian targets in Lebanon.
The raid came as Egyptian and Israeli
delegations in Geneva signed the new interim
peace agreement and the Palestine
Liberation Organization (PLO) called for
joint Arab efforts to destroy the accord
negotiated by Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger.
"It is the national responsibility of all
revolutionary regimes and forces in the
region to work jointly to defeat the U.S.
solution," a PLO spokesperson said in
Beirut.
United States promises
three billion in Mideast aid
WASHINGTON (UPl)-The United
States promised not only to supply 200
civilian monitors in the Sinai but furnish
close to S3 billion in aid in the first year of the
new interim agreement in the Mideast,
Secretary of State Henry Kissinger told
congressional leaders Thursday.
After a private briefing at the White
House, congressional leaders said Kissinger
assured them he made no secret agreements
and that Egypt had agreed to cut its
remaining ties with the Soviet Union.
House Republican Leader John H.
Rhodes said after the hour-and-a-half
briefing that the amount of aid for Israel ran
between $2.1 billion and $2.3 billion with
$1.5 billion of it in military assistance.
Others said promised aid for Egypt is
between $650 and $800 million, but
administration sources said $650 million is
the top figure.

White House obtains consent
to release Nixon documents
WASHINGTON (UPI) The While
House said Thursday it has obtained former
President Richard M. Nixon's consent to
release some impounded Nixon docurm nts
to the Senate intelligence committee, with
Nixon's lawyers to select the materials.
Spokespersons announced the
compromise agreement as the intelligence
panel met to review its still-incomplete
report on alleged plots by U.S. intelligence to
kill foreign leaders.
There were indications the report could
become a hot potato, with committee
members disagreeing on what conclusions
should be endorsed.
Committee members have said the
documents are vital to their investigation of
possible CIA intervention in Chilean politics
during the administration of the late
President Salvador Allende, a Marxist hot
to death during a 1973 coup.
The White House last week declined to
provide the materials on grounds they had
been impounded by a federal court order
pending settlement of Nixon's lawsuit to
retain custody of them.
Portuguese navy proclaims
support for Goncalves
L1BSON, Portugal (UPI) Portugal's
navy proclaimed full support for pro
Communist former prime minister Vasco
Goncalves Thursday in his battle to remain
the nation's commander-in-chief but the
Communist party indicated for the first time
it might be prepared to drop Goncalves.
The navy announced its support at the end
of a seven-hour meeting. The air force
immediately opened a similar meeting at
Sintra air base near Libson.
The army came out overwhelmingly
against Goncalves Tuesday and supported a
demand that he be fired.
As the armed forces meetings continued,
the Portuguese Communist party said
negotiations and compromise are the only
way out of the crisis the first sign the party

Butz states grain sales
to Russia to be delayed
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Agriculture
Secretary Earl L. Butz, while defending
massive grain sales to Russia as being in the
national interest, Thursday said further sales
will be delayed until U.S. maritime unions
aeree to handle the shipments.
"Sen. Henry Bellmon, R-Okla., denounced
this stance as a "gutless policy" of
kowtowing to AFL-CIO President George
Meany. Sen. George S. McGovern, D-S.D.,
charged that Meany "has taken on the
character of a dictator" who "exercises a
blackmail role" in American foreign policy.
But, testifying before the Senate
Agriculture Committee on the impact of the
grain sales, defended the 10 million tons
already sold and said he expects the United
States will be able to make "substantial
further sales to the Soviet Union wi'.hout
harming the U.S. supply position."
Transcribers
Continued from Page 1
transcriptions would not be helpful."
Earlc Wallace, professor and associate
chairperson of the Political Science
Department, said the transcriptions would
inhibit his style of lecturing, as well as cut
down on attendance. "There may be some
advantages when a student has to miss
class," he said. "But I think the student learns
more from a live class."
But sociology professor Henry A.
Landsberger said a negative reaction to the
transcriber service is premature."! think one
doesn't know yet," Landsberger said. "We
have no examples to go by, so my own
reaction is to see what happens."
He said his students would be w ell-advised
to come to class despite the transcripts. "A
student can detect the highlights from the
lecture and use the transcript for details."
Landsberger said. "In this way, they would
be supplementing each other."
Transcriber Service president Joyner,
once a college professor at the University of
Arkansas said the transcripts will not affect
class attendance. "I've been a student, and
I've taught at a college, and I've found that
students will cut class if they want to."
Chancellor Taylor said he has told the
faculty that the decision is up to each
professor. Taylor also said that he has no
way of knowing how the transcripts will
affect class attendance. -
