VOL. 33, NO. 20 TUESDAY, MAY 17, 1994 3 SECTIONS, 32 PAGES 50 CENTS Goss earns another term in U.S. House Sanibel's own Porter Goss earned a fourth term in the U.S. House of Representatives Friday, May 13, when no other candidates stepped forward to chal- lenge him for the seat. Friday was the official filing deadline for candi- dates and when the clock chimed noon, no others had filed the necessary paperwork to run for the office. Candidates had from May 9-13 to declare their inten- tions and file the appropriate documents. Goss, a Republican who is a former Sanibel City Councilman and mayor who also held a seat on the Lee County Commission - and served as the chair- man of that board, will continue to serve the 14th Congressional District, which encompasses Lee, Collier and Charlotte counties. The only way Goss can lose the seat is if a candi- date wins election in a write-in campaign.To date, no one has indicated they would challenge the incum- bent in such a manner. One opponent, Eugene Roberts, a Democrat,had declared his intentions to run but he- failed to com- plete the qualifying process. According to acquain- Pljato by Kathleen Blase tances on Pine Island, Roberts simply decided not to Framed run for the office.

The gifted black performers at the Bon Soir G. Wood had been so impressed with the way Joan Coburn and I had worked together in "Show Boat," he volunteered to write an act for us. He said he would select the music, make the vocal arrangements and be our accompanist. He felt strongly that he could get us an engagement at the Bon Soir, a popular night- club in Greenwich Village where he and Alice Ghostley had performed. What an experience it turned out to be. The rehearsal period was long and gru- elling. G's arrangements had complicated har- monies and he had the ears of a perfectionist. Notes came easily to Joan as she was primari- ly a singer. As Senor Wences would say, "Easy for you, difficult for me." My forte was dance; vocal harmonies were not swiftly learned and locked in. But once I knew them, I was solid.
