Chiles survived on a voting coalition of blacks, retirees and the moderate middle-class throughout his career, even in the ascendancy of Republicans. When it appeared his 1994 reelection effort was doomed with weeks left in the campaign, Chiles reached back to his roots and dubbed himself the "he-coon." The Southern reference to the oldest, wisest raccoon in the pack played off Bush's status as a political novice with a plastic image. Chiles repeatedly capitalized on populist sentiment with his length-of-the-state walk in 1970, his self-imposed $100 limit on campaign contributions in the 1990 governor's race and an early attack on the breadth of government agencies and their regulations.

As a little-known state legislator from Polk County, Chiles became "Walkin' Lawton" by walking more than 1,000 miles from the Panhandle to south Florida in three months.

Police dispatched an officer who checked out the scene Thursday night and spoke with the boy. "He told the boy that because the gingerbread man doesn't breathe and doesn't bleed there was no need to call 911," Police Chief Robert Jacola said.

Whether "The Gershwins' Fascinating Rhythm" is wonderful and marvelous will be hotly contested by the audiences at this latest Arizona Theatre Company presentation.

Director Mark Lamos and arranger Mel Marvin have plunged more than two dozen songs by George and Ira Gershwin into a fervid, hot-crotched revue about sex in the '90s. Purists hoping for a reverent, quaint revue about love in the '30s may be livid by the end of the show. Or, after 90 minutes of grappling with this intensely hip production, they may recognize that these songs transcend their own era and will FUNERAL NOTICES Arizona Theatre Company presents "The Gershwins' Fascinating Rhythm" today at 2 and 7 p.m. and at various times Tuesday-Dec. 20 and Dec.

But shades of meaning don't count for much these days, so the show is truly a product of our times. A few of the musical choices misfire. In "Fascinating Rhythm," the sharp syncopations are smoothed over and there's no rhythm left to fascinate. "Embraceable You" reeks of the 1980s cocktail lounge. But other provocative choices come off splendidly.

There's a dangerous edge to the staging of "Slap That Bass," in which "Cabaret" meets "A Clockwork Orange." And "Isn't It a Pity" takes la fine new twist as a same-sex love song. I The cast of dancing singers and singing dancers is uniformly fine. Standouts include Ramirez, who delivers "The Man I Love" with dusk in her voice and brings expertly comic physicality to "Just Another Elder, with his engaging tap-dance turn in "I Got and Kena Tangi Dorsey, who transforms herself from girl geek "Cousin in Milwaukee" to sultry torch singer ifi "Nice Work If You Can Get It." The most affecting moments, though, are the quiet ensemble numbers. A quintet version 6f "Someone To Watch Over Me" universalizes rather than depersonalizes the song's longing. And near the end the company, wearing ordinary white clothing and discreet AIDS-memorial ribbons, makes "They Can't Take That Away from Me" an unpretentious, moving tribute to lost loved ones.

Michael Yeargan's fluid scenic design, Paid Tazewell's naughty costumes, Peggy Eisenhauer's evocative lighting and a crack 12-piece pit band under Cynthia Kortman contribute mightily to the production. Who could ask for anything more? PARKER, Genevieve Tallmadge, 95, of Tucson, died December 2, 1998.

3015 N. Oracle Rd. always keep time with Americas throbbing hearts and groins. Evolution is in the very nature of the Gershwin brothers' songs. By the 1950s, Ella Fitzgerald, a definitive Gershwin stylist, had adapted the material to her own purposes, and was certainly not mimicking the performance practices of the 1920s and '30s.

So the issue isn't whether updating Gershwin material is moral, but whether it works. In this production, it works most of the time, when Lamos and choreographer David Marques explore the songs' contemporary shades of meaning rather than their shock value. The contrast is unnerving at the very beginning, as a scratchy '20s recording of "Fascinating Rhythm" by what sounds like Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards (the voice of Jiminy Cricket) segues into a jazz-dance number that smacks of glitzy Vegas rather than urbane New York. Next, as Sara Ramirez sings a steamy "I've Got a Crush on You," David Elder, the object of her desire, pulls off his shirt and gets ready to grope. The problem here isn't that the show is tarting up an innocent little '30s song; Ira's lyrics often traded in euphemism, pun and double entendre.

But by the time we get to the more explicitly lascivious "Sweet and Low Down," there's no way '1 I V' I. rv nz I 1 Ruffled feathers mark Crowes concert By Gene Armstrong The Arizona Daily Star Here's a guaranteed recipe for combustion a la Tucson: PIERCE JOSEPH WALSH 76, passed away December 10, 1998 after a year long battle with pancreatic cancer.

During the next song, "Twice as Hard," Robinson was struck in the chest by what appeared to be a beer bottle thrown from the audience. See related story, Page 2B.

Concert over. As the band exited, lead guitarist Rich Robinson, Chris' brother, challenged the spineless bottler-tosser to come forward and settle the matter mano a mano. No takers, naturally. Then other crowd members briefly threw bottles toward the area from which the original flew. One fellow went home with a bloody gash in his head.

"Twice as Hard" probably would have been the concert's finale anyway, but the incident left some of us feeling ashamed to be part of such an audience. And it's likely to be a long time before the Black Crowes play again in these parts.

The eight-piece band, including two female backup singer walked out to the recorded accompaniment of Curtis Mayfield's '70s funk classic "Pusherman," setting a mood for the evening. Already jostling for position, the audience swelled forward with a sense of anticipation, incense and the smell of marijuana mingling in the air. Through such familiar ban burners "Remedy," "Hotel Illness," "Sting Me," "Thorn in My Pride," "Jealous Again" and "High Head Blues," the band maintained a walloping energy, for which much credit is due to drummer Steve Gorman.

He pummeled his kit with authoritative power but also employed a concise, snapping-wrist style reminiscent of Charlie Watts'. Only slightly more restrained were the country-tinged "Wiser Time" and the gentle "By Yoiir Side." Rich Robinson traded solos with second guitarist Audley Freed throughout the evening. Robinson's biting slide-guitar eloquence contrasted dramatically with Freed's speedy agility. Eddie Harsch played electric piano and B3 organ, always supplying the appropriate mood barrelhouse blues, honky-tonk, thick James Brown-influenced soul and antebellum melancholy; Chris Robinson strutted rooster-like, almost a caricature of Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart But he had the goods, howling powerful blues with steely conviction.

During the bittersweet ballad "She Talks to Angels," lead singer Chris Robinson twice defended himself with his microphone stand when apparently drunken concertgoers lurched onto the stage and toward the band. That song one of the Crowes' best, by the way ended prematurely.

Robinson apologized to the audience, explaining how threatening such an action appears to a performer.
