WiIilby Free Press RADIO IN DURHAM An exhibition of ceramics by .ormer Brooklin artista Theo and Susan Harlandor bas begun at The Station Gallery.

But whother it's The Edge _or Magie 94.9 FM, the Oshawa radio station will ho playing the samo mugic as always, the beet of the '70s, '80s and '909, according to vice-prosident and general manager Lee Sterzy. "It's3 the same great radio station, just a new name," says Sterry. "f you listened to us before, you'll still love us." The station decided to, change its name after Toronto radio station CFNY began calling itself Thoe Edge, ho says, which caused some confusion. The situation worsened when a Buffalo station adopted the name, says Sterry, and research showed people tended ta, think of cutting edge, new wave or alternative music when they heard the name. "We could certainly fight to maintain exclusivity of the name because wo had it flrst but wo were told it would probably cost us $50,000 to $70,000 to, fight it," says Sterry. "Considering that the name might not accurately reflect the format anyway, wo thought we'd rather take that money, change the namo and put it inta, promotion - which is what w. did." Rai Blackadar, general manager of 102.1 The Edge, says thero's no question over whÈo owns the namo. "Wo happen to own the copyright - the trademark -- for The Edge in Canada for radio broadcasting...

Blackadar believes his station firet began using the name in tho early 1990e but adds "it really doesn't matter whether they (Power) daim te have used it flrst. 'You have te apply in Canada ta, copyright use of it... 1 forget tho date that they claimed use cf it but as I recail, it was after our use."

As ceramista, they worked on pieces as a team, each drawing on their individual strengths. Once the works were thrown and leather-hard, Theo- covered the exteriors using a process known as engobe or dlay slip (non- colour dlay mixture poured over the work and left to dry). When the coaing was sufficiently set, Susan would incise a design into the engobe that revealed the dlay body's colour - a process of Italian origin called sgraffito, meaning to scratch. Without sketches or guides, Susan free-formed every design, inspired by the shape before ber. After agraffito, she enhanced the decorative surface by brushing or rubbing on various oxides, producing splendid cplours. The work was then ready for a bisque flring in an electric kiln. The final procese was the" application of an overair* transparent matte glaze before the work entered the kiln for a final glaze firing. The Harlanders were commissioned to croate several sculptures and tile works for various public and private collections. They closed their Brooklin studio in 1987. Susan now writes poetry and paints.
