T-A photo Summertime fashions flair at Spring into Summer showing 3 Cheers For LOWER FOOD PRICES On April 8, the 47th annual Academy Awards were broad- cast. Millions of people, in- cluding me, were glued to our tv sets for two-and-one-half hours. Most, of us hoped to catch a glimpse of our favourite stars. Some of us tested our ability to select the top actor and actress and the best motion picture of 1974, Of the five nominees for best picture, I saw only one, "Towering Inferno," so I had a good excuse for picking a loser. This year's Oscar presen- tations was the best I've seen in several years. The pace seemed faster than in previous programs. Of course, we heard the usual eloquent acceptance speeches and the long lists of thank yous. One winner stated a political view, which the Academy promptly disclaimed. Director Brands Ford Coppola became the most familiar face in the crowd. He made several trips on stage to receive awards for his contribution to "The Godfather Part II." In spite of the impressive setting in the Los Angeles Music Centre, the show emphasized people - stars of the past and the present. The four emcees and the celebrity presenters maintained a quick tempo. The musical numbers and the purely en- tertaining segments were tastefully inserted into the program. Cameras scanned the star- studded audience, and tv viewers saw more celebrities than ever before - almost 200. We noticed the customary low-cut gowns and the tuxedos and bowties. Detectives prevented a repeat performance by last year's streaker. Film clips from old Oscar shows paid tribute to former Winners, Some of the scenes were sentimental; they brought back memories of fine actors and actresses of the past. Other scenes were humourous; they recalled the confusion and the mistakes that occurred from time to time. Finally, tidbits from the five films, nominated for the best motion picture of 1974, were reviewed. The presentations climaxed with the announcement of the winner, which was "The Godfather Part II." This film reflects the hold that corruption has on modern America, Another candidate for the top picture award was "China town," which also portrays corruptive influences in public and personal life. One of 1974's comedieS was "The Longest Yard." Convicts were converted to heroes by way of a football game, I thought football couldn't turn me on, but this game did. In this fantasy, the establishment, which was represented by the prison guards, took a beating. The audience loved it. Some moralists, who resent blood and violence, didn't understand how this movie could be classed as a comedy. Besides crime and corruption, catastrophe was a popular movie theme in 1974. Two of the most successful disaster films were "Towering Inferno" and "Earthquake." The latter received acclaim for its special effects. With the innovation of "sensurround," movie-goers not only watched a simulated ear- thquake but also felt its tremours. Recently I checked an en- tertainment page in a daily newspaper. Of the eighteen films listed, seven were restricted, and a a a o" "Spring into Summer" was the theme of the Wednesday fashion show when over 200 ladies from the area gathered at the Pine Ridge Chalet to view the spring and summer fashions. The show was sponsored by the Huron Country Playhouse Guild. Fashions were from Boyle's Ladies' Wear of Exeter. Mrs. William Schlegel of Grand Bend did the commentary. Modelling the fashions were Connie Johnston of Exeter, Helen Kleinstiver, Dashwood, Dorothy O'Connor, Grand Bend, Jo Anne Dinney, Exeter, Elaine Bogart, Exeter, Beth Jean, Grand Bend, Rose Marie Martens, London, Cathy Day, Exeter and Nancy Wright, Hensall. The clothing was displayed in a setting of gingham blossoms in nine were adult entertainment, "One manager warned that the film playing in his theatre con- tainedlanguage which might be offensive to some people. No wonder few families attend movie theatres. Some films tastefully handle sensitive subjects; others capitalize on the public's lust for sex and brutality. Many box office smashes of recent years consist of violence corruption and or disaster. If this is what we call entertainment, we don't have to pay to see it. We can stay home and watch the news. A proven way to make your home look better is to price the new ones.
