By TRICIA FISCHETTI I was Just beginning to drift off to sleep when the shrill ring of the telephone Monday night Jarred me back to full consciousness. When my roommate handed me the receiver, I immediately recognized the long-distance whir that accompanies calls from my boyfriend in Chicago. "Trish? I can't talk long cause I'm in a phone booth. But, I've got some bad news I thought you'd want to know about "John Lennon is dead" MY FIRST reaction was disbelief. I thought I must have heard him wrong. All I could say was "What?". "They just flashed it on the screen during the football game," he continued. "Some nut shot him, and he died in the hospital.'' Still numb, I turned on the radio. When I heard the sobbing voice of a disk Jockey on WWWV mention a senseless, asinine lulling, I knew it must be true. John Lennon was dead. I made some calls to a few people I knew would understand the sense of tragedy and personal loss I felt The radio station began playing uninterrupted Lennon, but I asked my roommate to turn it off. It was too soon. It was too painful. I just couldn't sit there and listen to that familiar voice and to the lyrics that are indelibly carved in my brain. Ai IT WAS A long time before IfeU asleep that night, and like a bad dream, the shooting was the first thing to pop into my head when I awoke. But it wasn't a dream. Pulling on my robe, I went downstairs to the TV lounge to catch the 7:30 morning news. There was his face on the screen in a familiar photograph with the words: John Lennon-—1940-1980. I listened to an updated account of the murder. I heard how some "local screwball" had been watching Lennon and even had gotten him to sign an album earlier that day—only to shoot him when he returned with his wife, Yoko, from a recording session. I saw the fans that had gathered outside Lennon's New York City apartment after the incident Hundreds of people were there, quietly singing Lennon's famous anti-war song "All We Are Saying Is Give Peace A Chance." JOHN LENNON. He gave us all so much. He gave us a new kind of rock 'n' roll when the '50s sound was wearing thin. Then, when a driving beat and happy-go-lucky words weren't enough, he gave us meaningful lyrics—a voice to a generation.
