Purchase Cattle
In Swan River
Mr. A. W. McKague ofFort
Francis, Ontario, recently pur-
chased cattle in the Swan River
Valley which were shipped by
freight to Sleeman and then
trucked to the McKague farm at
Bergland. The cattle arrived in
good condition and the follow-

ENROUTE EAST
" Mr. A. W. McKague of
Rainy River, Ontario, made a
special trip to the Swan River
Valley last week for the purpose
of acquiring livestock. This
was Mr. McKague's first visit
to the area.
"He arrived Thursday even-
ing at 8:00 p. m. and by 1:00
p. m. the following day the deal
was completed for 25 bred com-
mercial heifers all from the
herd owned by Dave Lumax.
"Included in the deal was
the loading of the animals
which Mr. Lumax carried out
last Monday morning and at
2:30 p.m. they were on their
way east by fast freight to the
farm of Mr. McKague.
" This is understood to be
somewhat of a record and could
be the forerunner of many of the

I wonder if anyone has writ-
ten such beautiful music as
Richard Rodgers. Ed Sullivan's
special tribute to the great cor -
poser, from the magnificent
Carnegie Hall in New York Cit};
was a magical hour of some of
the finest music ever written.
All the great songs he has writ-
ten, and most of his are, would
take hours to play, but Ed chose
some of the most beautiful and
presented fine variety. Chosen
for the honor of presenting the
songs were pop singers Peggy
Lee and Steve Lawrence, opera
star Roberta Peters, Broadway
stars Nancy Douslault, Cesare
Siepi, and the children's chorus
from "Sound of Music", pianist
Peter Nero, Arthur Fiedler and
his Boston Pops Orchestra, and
two performers whose success
has been largely due to Rodgers'
music: Gordon MacKrae from
the movie versions of "Okla-
homa" and "Carousel"; and
Diahann Carroll from his latest
hit "No Strings" now packing
'em in on Broadway.
The highlights of the show
would have to be the gorgeous
opening song "It's a Grand
Night for Singing"; the orches-
tral versions of "Slaughter on
Tenth Avenue" and "Carousel'
Waltz"; MacKrae's rendition of
the title song from "Oklahoma
and the stirring finale, "You'll
Never Walk Alone" from 'Car-
ousel', with Mr. Rodgers him-
self conducting the orchestra.
No one will ever be able to
equal this hour of entertainment;
it was truly 'a grand night for
singing', a great tribute to a
great composer!
After reading the many dis-
paraging remarks about Holly-
wood from stars now calling
Europe their home*: it was nice
to see that the magic is still
there, on Arthur Godfrey's
special tour on Monday even-

corrupt the movie -town may
be, it still has the atmosphere

all over the country hock
everything but their eye-teeth
to try their luck in 'show biz',
I can't help feeling a little
touch of remorse, tho', that so
many movie companies are
packing up sets and moving to
location shooting in Europe,
South America, etc., because
with every plane ticket, they
are crowding Hollywood farther
into the background. The
views of Television City, Holly-
wood-and-Vine,
ollywood-and-Vine, and the breath
taking Hollywood Bowl, are
enough to remind us that it is
still the entertainment centre
of the world and no-one should
forget it. I do have one beef
about it though: WHY are the
people behind the scenes never
mentioned in movies? I mean,
particularly, the voices behind
babies (Jerry Hausner), cartoon
characters (June Forday), and
especially the voices behind
singers, like Loulie Jean Nor-
man. Although I've heard that
lovely voice many times, I've
never heard her name, nor did
I know she even existed. A
well-known actress can com-
pletely captivate an audience
with a voice that isn't even her
own, then be talked about for
years after. I say, let's give
credit where it is due, to the
real talent, whese faces and
names are hidden.
It was a real treat to see
Elaine Grand back in Canada,
even if it was only for one
evening. And she was lovely
to watch, after seeing Donnalu
Wigmore, who looks like she's
smelling flowers most of the
time!
A very successful American
series has now made its debut on
a number of Canadian stations,
including' our local one. (Thurs-
days, 7:00) It is "Candid Cam-
era", and is just what the title
implies, pictures taken by a
hidden camera to catch candid
acts of people who aren't aware
they are being filmed for nation
al television. It has been going
strong for a number of years in
the U.S. and it is not hard to
see why. It is one of the funn-
iest shows on TV, because it
stars our fellow man and we all
love to laugh at him. Its hosts
are Durward Kirby, who is Gar-
ry Moore's right -hand -man, and
Alan Funt, who first contrived
the idea for the show. Female
guests appear from week to
week, such as Dorothy Collins,
Betty Johnson, etc. The first
show last week, was one of
their weakest efforts; watch for
even more hilarious subjects to
be covered before the end of
the season. I am only sorry
that they don't bring their cam-
era up into Canada, so we could
guffaw at our best friends!

This week's special viewing
highlights are few but look most
promising: the yearly Danny
Kaye special which I will be re-
viewing next week; and next
Monday's (19th) special "Fest-
ival" production of " The Gon-
doliers" starring Douglas Camp
bell, Ilona Kombrink, andJack
Creley. This Gilbert -and -Sul-
livan hit was filmed this sum-
mer for CBC -TV at the Strat-
ford Shakespearean Festival
where it met withg reat success,
If the first two G & S produc-
tions, "H.M.S. Pinafore" and
"Pirates of Penzance" are any
example, this should be a high-
light of the season, so don't
miss it! And here's a reminder
for the small fry, don't forget
the big Santa Claus Parade,

morning, the 17th, at 9:45 a.m.

Speaker Urges
All Co-operate
The board of directors of Mid -
Western Ontario Development
Association met in the Waterloo
council chambers last Wednes-
day afternoon. In the evening a
dinner meeting of Zones 3 and
4 of M.O. D. A. (Waterloo and
Wellington Counties) was held
in the Waterloo Lutheran Univer-
sity
niversity auditorium.
Greetings from Waterloo were
extended to the association by
Mayor James Bauer, and from
Wellington County by Warden
G. H. Whitelaw. The president
of M.O.D. A. , Ross Savauge, of
Seaforth, outlined the work pro-
gramme for the coming year,
and made a plea for the support
of every municipality in the
area.
The address of the evening
was given by Dr. Ralph Kreuger,
professor of Geography of Water-
loo
aterloo University. His address
featured "Planning or Chaos",
which referred particularly to
the Kitchener, Waterloo,
Guelph area with its rapidly in-
creasing population. Areaplan-
ning, he said, is a vital neces-
sity. He felt that there should
first be an inventory of resour-
ces; then definite plans laid;
then these plans implemented
into action.
He told of a piece of land in
Huron County that was purchas-
ed for $50,00 an acre, and con-
sisted of stumps and swamp land.
The purchaser, a native of Hol-
land, prepared the land for the
growth of certain crops of veget-
ables and the same land is to-
day valued at $1,000 an acre.
The Economic survey and
Feasibility study, now being con
ducted by M.O.D. A. in the
Mid -Western Ontario region
(consisting of Huron, Perth,
Waterloo and Wellington Count-
ies) is laying the groundwork
for a planned future for these
areas. Dr. Krueger was very
critical of municpalities that
did not co-operate with M.O. -
D.A., as he felt they were not
playing their part in the future
development of their own area.
Dr. Kreuger was introduced
by H. C. Goos, of Preston and
thanked by J. D. Oaks of Guelph.
Both are past presidents of M. O.
D. A., and Mr. Oaks has recent-
ly been elected president of
Ontario Regional Development
Council.
All four Huron directors were
present at both meetings, Mr.
Murray Greene of Exeter; Mr.
Robt. Squire of Goderich; Mr.
Leonard Winter of Clinton and
Mr. Ross Savauge, of Seaforth.
Society Seeds
Finish Project
The Bluevale Society Seeds
held their final meeting of the
project, "Dressing up Veget-
ables" , in the basement of the
United Church,
Two labels from canned or
frozen vegetables were turned
in by each member for the roll
call. Home assignments were
given.
It was decided to hold an-
other meeting to complete the
record books. The national
anthem was sung and pie and
ice cream was served for lunch.
