James director Country nounced Tuesday that New York actor Rex Stallings has been signed for the production Parlor, Bedroom and Bath. Mr. Stallings, who ap peared in the original ‘Oh Calcutta’ production in London, portrays a timid husband who tries to live up to his wife’s image of him as a “ladies man”. Mr. Stallings (a familiar face in Canada through his London Life TV ad) appeared at the Murphy, artistic for the Huron Playhouse, an- Playhouse in 1975 in ‘Barefoot in the Park’. His most recent engagements were with the recent Brooklyn Academy of Music season where he appeared in the provocative production of ‘Macbeth’ starring Richard Dreyfuss. Ann de Villiers returns to the Playhouse for a third season to play Stallings’ wife. The production also stars Judy Savoy, CFPL television personality, who plays a gossip columist and discovers, besides a lot of fun and confusion, the truth about the would-be ladies man. Parlor,Bedroom and Bath is a 1917 Broadway relic, co authored by Charles Bell, a prominent Canadian lawyer from Hamilton. The show, after its initial decade of popularity both on the stage and on the silent screen, fell into obscurity. The Huron Country Playhouse production will give the play its first showing in nearly 50 years. - and - IN THE MATTER OF an application by The Corpora tion of the Village of Grand Bend for approval of its Restricted Area By-Law 316 of 1976 APPOINTMENT FOR HEARING THE ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD hereby appoints Tuesday, the 20th day of June, 1978 at the hour of one o'clock (local time) in the afternoon at the Legion, in the Village of Grand Bend, for the hear ing of all parties interested in supporting or op posing this application.
