Cricket song.
now in French
By ELIZABETH TOUCHETTE
Bobby Gdmhy tells me that his
Cricket Song" has ;lust been
recorded In France "Le Chan
eon du Cricket," said .Dobby,
s'I'nt 'dying to hear it.'
The song, which he wrote with
Johnny Wayne, has been record-
ed, several times and made the
hit parade charts here and in
l✓ngdand a couple of years ago.
"It's still selling. teo." says
Dobby, "nothing spectacular but
I get a royalty cheque every
three months. It looks as if it's
going to become a standard.•'
'Re laughed. "'At the moment,
Johnny and I call it the sub-
standard.''
• Although electronic devices
were used to produce the cricket
:Found on other records, Bobby
slid the chirping on his own ver-
sion. "When I was a youngster
ice Cabri, Sask., I used to listen
to nature sounds and try to
mimic • them.' he said over
coffee at the ('B(' cafeteria
"When I mastered the .cricket's
ehirp I decided that when I grew
up 1 d use the sound somehow,"
Bobby has written several
ether songs and he ang one for
use that I'm sure could hot the
top. It's a Christmas novelty/
tune called "When Bessie the
Cow Helped Santa," and is the
cutest thing I've heard since
they first shined Rudolph's nose
Perhaps the song will be record-
ed this year. If it is 1'll let you
know.
Speaking of records, Pa.ut
Anka just cut eight sides in New
.York, and the other flay he
signed a 28 -week contract at
are en the move, ,lust about
$10.000 a week for another
,European tour.
Bob G4ulet tells me that he
has heard rumours that sus show
will fold at the end of the sea-
son. "Of course, at this time of
year those rumours always
Ant." he added. Bob plans to
go. to Rew York this summer
MIy agents there feel it's time
I made the break," he said
"They hope to get me some suns
neer spots. and if anyone will
take a chance on an unknown
like bile. it will be ,Broadway
next year"."
• I asked Bob how his dramatic
role in Thunder Rock at the
Crest Theatre bad fared. "Just
fabulous, wonderful," he said.
"The critics panned it, the
audiences stayed away in droves
and it was a big flop," he
laughed. "hut what an experi-
ence. Wonderful,"
Now that spring is on the way
( and. thatis known as The power
of positive thinking) the stars
;everyone has personal appear
lances mapped out. Bob has a
Peterboro date in a couple of

And JIM SWEITZER
• Although "A" Scout Troop is
a thriving organization, it could
never earry on without fine
leadership which comes in the
persons of Scout Master Ralph
Sweitzer and his assistant Hal
Hooke.
These two men have carried
on the troop for over a year
alone, They have worked very
hard and all the scouts appreci-
ate their fine efforts. W°ben the
troop was re-formed after the
Scout house had been built,
Scouter Hal Rooke took over as
SM.
The following year Terry Lawn
enee became SM because Scouter
Ha1's work in the Ausable River
Conservation Authority took a
large amount of his time. The
next year Terry went to the
rescue of the Centralia troop and
this, left Scouter Ralph our new
SM.
Scouter Ralph has his Gitwell
wood badge, a hard-earned badge
for leaders, and Scouter Ilal is
%working hard on his and should
soon be clone.
Our leaders work hard all the
time. During the year they super-
vise our fair booth, cutting and
selling Christmas trees, all
camps (they require a great deal
of organization), • and preparing
our displays which were seen in
Exeter shop Windows recently.
And during the peck they spend
hours planning regular troop
meetings. conducting the court of
honor and passing tests.
However all 'the credit doesn't
go to Scouters Ha] and Ralph
for they both have wives and
children who deserve the atten-
tion that goes to us, the Scouts.
Instead of insisting their hus—
bands
bands stay home they 'allow the
Scouters to spend time. with us
and a sincere thankyou from all
the boys is extended to Ralph
and '.Hal and their families.
Jeff Pearson is moving lo
•Gim'li, Manitoba, Jeff is well on
his way to Second Class and he
has attended summer camp with
us. Be is a member of the Stag
Patrol and we are sure everyone
in the troop will miss hint.
