Another Spring and Summer season is about to open at Lake Huron's most popular resort — Grand Bend. This 1956 season ap- pears to offer a vastly improved resort, and, particularly at Lake- view Casino, which now remains the only summer 'resort ballroom which is open every night until Labor Day: This fact does seem to remain in people's minds, and it just seems so natural that "The Casino" is always where it is-, and taken for granted that it's always open, al- though some thought should be given to the terrific expense "The Old Standby" has to provide, which, in many ways, is a service both to the resort generally, and to the surrounding districts. One can always say, without hesitation, that Lakeview Casino is a nice place to dance—the. pat- ronage has always been the best. The' present owner, Eric Mellroy, has managed this ballroom for 19 years and has carried on a busi- ness which was already well-man- aged and established, by the late George Eccleston, and Mrs;` Eccle- ston, who, indeed, were real pion- eers of Grand Bend. ' Stop for a moment and look back, fathers and mothers, and boys and girls, and even to-day you will see many of your Canad- ian TV stars, who, in almost recent years, have -been part of the enter- tainment at Lakeview Casino: Ho- ward Cable, who wrote many of the Willis Tipping orchestrations; Bab Famon, a top BBC and CBC musical director, was part of the Brian Farnon orchestra; Rudy Toth, pianist and director on CBC was with the Stan, Patton orch- estra; Jimmy Namara, the great- est ,showman ever to appear with his orchestra at the Casino; Bert Niosi spent many seasons at Grand Bend; Gordon Delmont, one of our top musical' teachers; Neil Mackay now has his Master's de- gree in music, and annually is win- ning more honors; Mart Kenny, Art Hallman, Len Hopkins, the Wright Bros. (Don, of Don Wright Chorus—Ernie, Clarke and Bill); really, one could go on and on, but, starting with Guy Lombardo in 1917 and 1918, right up to the present day, there have been so many fine musicians. and person- alities, it would take columns to even -present names, Getting back to the present, one can only judge a business on its past record, and nowhere in this wide Canada will a better record for a resort ballroom be found. Season 1956 is one in which we are presenting a new orchestra, and we mean just that. Few have heard them, but many thousands are going to dance to them in the next few years. Here is a band- leader, Cliff. Scanlon, who reminds us of the now-great Lawrence Welk, who always was great, but TV brought him, continent-wide re- cognition. Scanlon had an idea, and a very definite one, of a sweet, tuneful orchestra, emphasizing the melody, and he is going to present his version of what he thinks by way of a fine group of hand-picked musicians, thus! Leader: Cliff. Scanlon, plays ac- cordion; Piano, Dalt Walpole, was• pianist witliNthe Den Wright Chorus, heard over CBC; Trumpet, Bobby Gardiner, To, mitt?, Stratford and Waterloo Festival winner, CNE Gold Medal- ist in 1949; Trumpet, Dave Bentley, Festival Winner, duets with Bob Gardiner; tap honors in all competitions; plays with Martin Boundy's radio orchestra; Trombone, Gerry Scanlon, cousin of am; Drums, rd.

Sparling (a former Clinton bay), played with Norm, Harris of Toronto, and Leo Roman- elli of Toronto; has, done OPPI, radio and TV work, has also play ed with the Civic Symphony; Sax., Vie, Serratare, played Grand Bend several seasons, ' Bass Piddle—Timothy Wright, newcomer in the business, he iS the son of the farnous, Don Wright; (girls—he's 19 years old, six foot tall, and goad-looking!); Vocalist—Bob /Archer, baritone, sings in Brigilsh and French; Tim- festival Winner in 1050. Our plans, this year are for the opening dance on Saturday, May 19, and dancing every Saturday in May and June until the "Every Night" dancing sign goes up on Friday, June 29. Come to the Bend and hear and dance to our best orchestra in years! Try one night "once in a- while"—don't drift away complet- ely from "a night out"—have fun— try it! If you don't dance, you will enjoy listening to cliff. Scanlon and his orchestra, playing smooth danceable music that doesn't lose the melody or tune. Some Service Club groups have already made arrangements for; their night this summer, under very favorable financial conditions; perhaps your group would like a similar arrangement; contact Eric Mcllroy, 'phone 10 or 155, Grand Bend, adv.
