Breakfast vendors compete on the street

By Marina Lakhman | August 13, 1993

In a town as small as Hanover, businesses do everything they can to compete for customers, even if it means going out on to the street. For the last five years, Lou's table of fresh baked goods and coffee outside its store on Main Street has been a common sight for morning and afternoon passersby, but since the opening of Chez Francoise in July behind the Dartmouth Bank, Lou's has had competition. Both bakeries set up tables at 7 a.m.

By Dawn Conner | August 13, 1993

The Hanover Board of Selectmen appointed a Parking Task Force Committe to investigate the possibility of creating an estimated $3 million parking garage to ease overcrowding in the downtown area. The proposed garage would hold an estimated 200 to 250 cars and would be for the use of town patrons, according to College Assistant Director of Business Affairs William Barr, a task force member. The current parking problem in downtown Hanover results from the limited number of public parking spaces -- there are 838 metered spaces and 64 leased spaces.

Set in the Italian countryside in the 16th century, the film appropriately begins with Beatrice, played by Emma Thompson, reading in the fields to a group of women and men about how "men were deceivers ever."

Exhibit inspires discussion

By Jennifer Skoda | July 23, 1993

Fact or fiction. Documentation or art. These dualities are common issues in a discussion of photography because, although the process is a mechanized way to creating images of the physical world, the photographer's subject choices and methods of depiction render the outcome subjective.

By Angela Crossman | July 16, 1993

It's sunny, hot, humid and sticky. You drip with sweat and smell like you've just finished an All-Star basketball game; instead, you're in New England in the midst of a heat wave. As your brow drips with sweat and your body pulsates with excess heat, you dream about swimming. The obvious first choice is the Connecticut River.

Eastwood thrilling 'In the Line of Fire'

By Michael Hauser | July 13, 1993

First of all, skeptics of the world, "In the Line of Fire" is not another JFK conspiracy movie. The many references to the untimely demise of the president are included only for their symbolic value, and for the character development of Horton, played by the revered cinematic veteran Clint Eastwood. In his first production since his Academy Award winning "Unforgiven," Eastwood plays a secret service agent in this movie directed by German Wolfgang Petersen. Horton is known among his colleagues as a "dinosaur," having been in the department long enough to have been assigned to defend President Kennedy on that fateful Dallas afternoon in November 1963. Despite earning a legendary reputation for toughness over the years, Horton's career, confidence and personal life were never quite strong enough to overcome his apparent failure to dive in front of the fatal shots purportedly emanating from the book depository across the street. Enter John Malkovich as the antagonist.

By Dawn Conner | July 9, 1993

It was not too long ago that U2 flooded radio stations and heated the summer with its incredible smash "Achtung Baby" and outdoor concert phenomena "Zoo TV Tour." In an amazingly short time, the Irish band has created a new and different album, just in time for another summer. The new album, which keeps with the "zoo" theme in its title "Zooropa," is definitely not old-style U2.

'Distant Cousin' emerge from Dartmouth family

By Dawn Conner | July 6, 1993

Somehow the cute, elementary drawing of rolling hills, apple trees and stick figures that decorates the cover of Distant Cousins' compact disc does not quite seem to fit with Elvis Presley doing karate. Then again, the group's first album, "Twice Removed," is not exactly what one would call consistent.
