Dr. Robert Cole, a professor of
pop culture, has heard them all,
or at least a good many stores* in
which the late, great rock 'n' roll
singer played a dominant role.
Alive, of course.
According to Cole, Elvis has
been spotted at Burger Kings,
shopping malls and grocery
stores everywhere from Mon-
Uy^ to Texas to Hinsdale, N.H.
T^nd he should know — he
keeps track of Elvis sightings as
part of his research.
Cole, an expert in Americn
history and music of the 1960s,
said he thinks the Elvis sightings
stem from a lack of inspiration in
modern-day American society
from leaders, musicians and
other powerful figures.

"Energy, imagination, boyish
enthusiasm for life. Thafs just*
some of what Elvis represents.
People are attempting to recover
that in some way," said Cole, a
professor at Ripon College in
Wisconsin.
"We can all see'Elvis in our
mind's eye, but only the crazies
see him in a shopping mall and
talk to him/"
. Cole said he finds Elvis fun to
study and says the King is
"significant to American
culture."
"I think primarily ifs this
latent desire for what Elvis
represents in his music and his
lifestyle," Cole said.
Cole said the Elvis is Alive
phenomenon is just "wish
fulfillment"
He said that until society can
find another figure as inspira¬
tional as Elvis, sightings and
books about the sightings will
continue.
"W^are so much on the edge
of this type of thing," Cole said.
The breakup of communism
might inspire it ... Until then,
we're left with visions of Elvis."
