On Sunday, temperatures will not reach beyond the mid 40s, with a chance of lake-effect snow likely in western New York. Later that night, temperatures will dip into the mid 20s arid low 30s. Monday will bring sunny skies and warmer temperatures, as the mercury climbs into the low 50s. Showers are likely as the week prog- resses.

Courtney Love: stupid games in court AP Photo Playing Gary Oldman: movie maniac AP Photo Forever the MATURING THE STONE: Sharon Stoiit's switch from heir usual man-eating roles to a part as a self-destructive moll in Martin ScorsMft's \Casino\ was prompted by a certain loss of assets. \My rear-end is starting to slide down the back of my legs,\ she told Britain's Ikon mag- azine in its December issue. The 37-year*old star of the sizzling sex thrillers \Basic Instinct\ and \Sliver\ auditioned instead for the violent gangster movie, which stars Robert De Niro as a Vegas operative mar- ried to Stone. It comes out Nov. 22. Her role was exhausting — \It starts like 'Goodfellas' and deteriorates to \Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?'\ — but she's looking forward to working with other highly esteemed directors in serious roles. \I'd rather have more sex at home and keep my clothes on at work,\ she said. \I'm maturing.\ NO LOVE LOST: Courtney Love wanted to play games as her assault trial began. Wearing a black ruffled suit and gold jewelry, the hardbit- ten rock star whispered from the defense table Thursday: \Hey prosecutors. Psssst. Are you the prosecutors? Can I be O.J. and you be Christopher Darden?\ The lawyers turned their heads and didn't answer. Love is charged with slugging several youths standing in front of the stage before a concert in March. She could get two years in prison. Love, lead singer of the band Hole and widow of rocker Kurt Cobain, pleaded guilty in September to assaulting a singer in another band but was spared a jail sentence.

And we couldn't kill any of them,\ she said in Entertainment Weekly's Nov. 10 issue. The .ants' handler \believes in humanity to ants. He wanted us to give them back to him — especi- ally the ones he had defanged.\ Weaver found a way to survive the ordeal: \I cheated. I put two sheets on the bed, one between me and the ants. I didn't want to go home crying.\ SOUL CONTROL: Jamas Brown, accused of beating his wife, says she's the bad guy. \She's mentally abusive to me,\ said the Godfather of Soul. \Any time she needs those drugs, she will do anything to get them. Once when I was com- bing my hair, she slapped me across the face with a razor.\ Earlier this week, Brown was ar- rested at his Beech Island, S.C., home after his wife, 45-year-old Adrienne Brown, called 911 and said he hit her. He was freed on bail. \The 911 system gives her control over me,\ he said. -mr wwpfT\ ™» PEOPLE PICK A ROLL, ANY ROLL: From Shi Vicioui to Dracula to a Piintan.

And flashing a sweet, unearthly smile. That's what won him the role of the oversexed, guilt-ridden Rev. Arthur Dimmesdale in 'The Scarlet Let- ter.\ Producer-director Roland Jaffa's wife, Susie, showed her husband that smile — cap- tured in a single scene of \State of Grace,\ in which Oldman played an edgy, murderous member of New York City's Irish mob. Why did Oldman take the churchman's role opposite Demi Moore? \It meant I didn't have to go in and play another psychopathic killer,\ he said.

McCoo debuts in new dimension By MARY CAMPBELL AP Newsfeotures Writer The Great Square of Pegasus is prominent in the eastern sky at darkfall. The lovely constella- tion Andromeda seems to walk upright along the southeastern horizon in two graceful, diverging lines of stars. Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is on the eastern tip of the asterism Frederick's Glory (three fourth-magnitude stars) bran- ching eastward from Beta An- dromeda toward the constellation of Cassiopeia. Our closest neighboring galaxy, M31, lies 1.5 million light years from Earth. A six-inch telescope or larger is re- quired for resolving any structu- ral detail, but binoculars, as well as naked eye viewing, reveal the core of the galaxy, appearing like a fuzzy star. Venus (magnitude -3.9) ap- pears in the Southwest remain- ing visible for a longer period than earlier in the month. On •Saturday, Venus passes to within four degrees of Antares (magnitude 0.96) in Scorpio. West of Venus Mars (magnitude 1.3) and Jupiter (magnitude -1.8) combine with the precursor stars in Scorpio to produce a cluster of bright objects near, the middle of the Milky Way stream. Compiled by John Lamoureux NEW YORK (AP) - Making her Broadway debut as Julie in \Show Boat\ is especially grati- fying to Marilyn McCoo, who thought Lena Home should have had the role in the 1951 movie version of the musical, instead of Ava Gardner. \I thought it was a shame,\ says McCoo, formerly of the 5th Dimension. \It Would have been a wonderful opportunity for a light-skinned black actress to play a mulatto. But knowing Hollywood at the time ... \That's one of the reasons why doing this role has extra meaning and is such an exciting thing for me.\ . McCoo, who also sings as a duo with her husband, Billy Davis Jr., and hosted the TV show \Solid Gold\ for five years, says it's a role she always thought she could play. \The songs aren't far out of my style,\ she says. \But in theater you can't take as many liberties with the melody as you could if you're doing cabaret, of course. \One of the interesting things about songs in this production, there's more of an acting ap- proach to take. You do a subtext. There are many layers of mean- ing to a song like 'Bill.' '„ \I'm not singing about a man named Bill. Julie is singing about' her relationship with her man AP Photo Marilyn McCoo named Steve. I don't think they wanted to slap the audience in the face with it. They wanted the audience to figure it out for themselves.\ McCoo, who was in. the chorus of \Finian's Rainbow\ in college, hasn't done a lot of theater, but she likes it. \Musical theater is a chance to sing and act,\ she says. \I enjoy doing both so much.\ In 1986 she was in \A ... My Name Is Alice,\ an ensemble piece, at the Burt Reynolds Din- ner Theater in Jupiter, Fla. Then she had the lead in \Anything Goes\ in Miami and was in \Man of La Mancha\ in Los Angeles and in \Into the Woods\ with students at the University of Mississippi. Being in musicals became easier, McCoo says, as she gained experience. She auditioned (un- successfully) for \Sunset Boule- vard\ in Los Angeles and for <? Show Boat\ for Hal Prince in Toronto. \When does one feel one is ready for Broadway?\ she asked herself. \I don't know. You get in there and say 'I'll do my best' and go for it.\ In between shows, she sang in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Reno and a casino on an Indian reser- vation in Connecticut. Most of the time, she sang solo, some- times with her husband, - \Billy is performing, but not as much as I am,\ she says. \Billy has always wanted to have some- thing in the business world going on outside of music. I focus all my time on entertainment, which is all I've ever really wanted to do.\ ••-•',- The 5th Dimension started in 1966 and is still going, with original members Florence LaRue, Ron Townsbn and Lamonte McLemore and replacements for McGoo and Davis who left in 1975 to sing as a duo. Sometimes the o*i£Ltial five reunite for a Special engagement and four years ago they did a three-month reunion tour.
