BOOKCORNEfTH I Mrs. Gladys Coletta | \ 4Kg 1 \Y i # THE GREAT I ? TRAIN ROBBERY [: By Michael Crichton. 1975. ;% Pp.4U. Alfred A. Knopf, !l Inc., Publishers. 5 The Great Train Robbery, by Michael Crichton, is based on Britains actual Great Train Robbery of 1855. It was called “the crime of the century and the most sensational exploit of the modern era”. Occurring as it did when trains were in their infancy and a sign of prestige and progress for En *lf n.d, the robbery shear ed as an insult to yiieen Victoria and Her Majesty’s troops fighting in the Crimea, for whom the gold was destined. Bit by bit and ever so slowly, the author fits the pieces of the plot together, as one would fashion a jigsaw puzzle. Murder is never ruled out, when and wherever i: is needed to promote the action.

NOW: The ~ ~ r =X ~ -% -v. -s. watch preferred by I, ) precision-minded young i Ll'V. \ men is the digital. This '«&' I space-age watch operates. /.

A multitude of incongruous and, on the surface, unrelated things add up to complete the plot. These consist of vicious dog and rat fights (animal baiting), the transportation of a wild leopard, a public hanging, staged fights, a coffin con taining a live body, and even children are used to divert the attention of the authorities from the real action. Only a could manipulate such a thriller of a story. For atmosphere there is the language of the under world, and the English accent of both high and low society. Customs and tradition prevail as we find the British drinking their tea, or going to the pub for a beer. All in all, The Great Train Robbery is an entertaining thriller and an intriguing portrait of Victorian society. Christian Activity ■ Planned Members of Joy Enter prises, while working to gether on the Nicky Cruz Crusade, shared thoughts on how good it was to use the Asheville Civic Center as a come-together location for Christians of all denomina tions. Joy Enterprises de veloped from a discussion about making more use of the facility for Christian enter tainment.

The time slated for all events is 8:00 p.m. Joy Enterprises will con tinue to bring in Christian groups as long as the community will support them.
