NORTHWEST HERALD Section B Friday, July 1», IMS Pf * Entertainment PEOPLE TALK Back to school Call him Professor Papp. Broadway producer Joseph Papp will be joining the faculty of Florida State University in tne fall, coaching student actors and directors and lecturing on the theater. Papp was busy in New York, overseeing his production of Shakespeare's "Mea­ sure for Measure," but made an appearance at the Tallahassee news conference by means of videotape. "I've always taken the theater seriously," he said. "It must have a social function. It must serve people -- all people. I think I'd like to pass this on." Papp will get a salary of $60,000 and plans to donate it to the New York Shakespeare Festival, which he runs. "I don't think we can have a better person on our campus representing the whole of theater than Joseph Papp," the school's theater dean, Gil Lazier, said. "He is first and foremost the most successful theatrical producer in the world. He's been called the most important force in American theater and possibly world theater today." 'Psycho' revisited The most famous guest of the Bates Motel returned to the "Psycho" set this week. Janet Leigh, who played Marion Crane in the original "Psycho" 25 years ago, visited the Universal set where Anthony Perkins is making "Psycho IIL" "I didn't fare too well the first time I was here," Leigh said, recalling her character's bloody demise at the hands of Perkins's Norman Bates. Perkins is the director of "Psycho III" as well as its star and is using the same Bates house that was seen in the earlier "Psychos." Love in the soap Wh*t makes soap-opera characters fall in love? Whatever will keep viewers interested. Producers give it a great deal of thought. "Conflict is good in the beginning, but you hope the audience can see through the conflict," and realize the characters are meant for each other, A1 Rabin, supervising producer of "Days of Our Lives," told TV Guide. Tom Palmer, casting director of CBS's "The Young and the Restless," says "physical chemistry" also is important. Palmer said in some cases an actor can have too much sizzle, as evidenced by Ashley Abbott, played by tall, torrid Eileen Davidson. He acknowledged difficulty in casting someone who can play effectively against Abbott. "She tends to eat up her leading men," he said. A lot off lacocca Bantam Books printed the 2 millionth copy of Chrysler Chairman Lee Iacocca's book "lacocca: An Autobiography" Wednesday, just nine months after it hit the bookstores. That makes it the first adult non- reference, non-fiction hardcover to have that many copies in print in 33 years. The only other books to pass the 2 million figure are "Power of Positive Thinking" by Norman Vincent Peale; "Jonathon Livingston Seagull," by Richard Bach and Margaret Mitchell's "Gone With the Wind."

The Rialto Square Theater, 102 N. Chicago St. in Joliet, welcomes country superstars Waylon Jenn­ ings and Jessi Colter for two shows Saturday, July 27, at 3 and 6:30p.m. Tickets for the Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter concerts at the Rialto are $14.50 and $16.50, available at Ticketron or the Rialto Box Office, 102 N. Chicago St., Joliet; 815/726-6600 or 312/242- 7171. Since the early 60s, when he first arrived full force on the country scene, Jennings has never ceased to cut his own unique path across the rather conservative landscape of country music. His musical style, though anchored in his West Texas rockabilly roots, in­ corporates everything from tradi­ tional country to rock, with bits of blues thrown in as well. Over the years, Jennings has had more than 55 chart records.

Koufax - surprisingly - had a losing record, winning only 36 games while losing 40 Nobody would have pred icted Hall of Fame stardom for Koufax at that point . But then, he miraculously turned his career around, and became one of the greatest pitchers of all time, averag ing over 20 wins a season during the rest of his years in the majors, while setting strikeout records and pitching 4 no-hitt­ ers. Ever wonder why the sport of golf is called "golf?" . . Although golf was de­ veloped in Scotland, it was the Dutch who gave the game its name ... The word "golf" is a Dutch word meaning a club with which to hit ball. Surprisingly, there was one season in ba seball when a batter could have 3 strikes - and NOT be out . . . The rules makers decided to experiment in 1887 and that season you needed 4 strikes for a strikeout . . .
