Harold Taylor's team, Doro- thy Bain, Grace Walden, Carrie Cruickshank, Don Cameron and Joe Schneider won the trophy in the play-off series. Individual trophies went to Shirley Storey with the high average of 188, high single of 313 and high triple of '729; Jim Bain with a high average of 202; Harold Wild with a high single of 345 and to Ernie Walker with a high triple of 781. Eric Walden stated at the start of the season that he would give a trophy to the bowler with the most improved average and this was won by Carl Lott. After the election and pre- sentations, the balance of the evening was spent dancing to the music of Garnet Farrier's orchestra. Sorry that George and Doro- thy Cameron, and Jack and Edith Walker were unable to be present. They were missed. May everyone have an enjoy- able summer and come back in September ready to set new bowling records. SS 9 EUCHRE WHITECHURCH--The final euchre of the winter season was held in S.S. No. 9, E.

The ceremony, which took place in the Civic Auditorium at Santa Monica, California, was telecast live on American television, and although it was made available to CBC facili- ties, the federal election crowded it off Canadian tele- vision screens completely. This year, for the first time, Frank Sinatra replaced Bob N E W S COMMERCIAL LEAGUE Congratulations to the Cana - diens who came through with the playoff Championship. It didn't come easy to them, as the rest of us fought them all the way. This draws out 1962- 63 bowling season to a close. The final standings are: Canadiens 12893; Hawks 12300; Leafs 12189; Rangers 12129; Wings 11816; Bruins 11783. On behalf of the league, thanks to the executives for a happy fun -filled year. Special thanks to the Advance -Times, which has put up with my weekly report and ofttimes nonsense. Hope you all have a wonderful summer, and see you all in September. Dorothy Cameron ST. HELENS Easter visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Webb were Mr. and Mrs. Ken Grewar, Nancy and Bradley of Sudbury; Mr. and Mrs. Dan Rose and David of Newmarket; Mr. and Mrs. David Gilmour and Jeffrey of Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. Charles Pearce of Brantford; Mrs. Charles Hodgins, Wingham and Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Webb of Goderich. Week -end visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Woods were Mr. and Mrs. Mel Brown and Mrs. Mabel Murdie of Kitchen- er. Douglas Miller is spending a few days with his grandfather, Mr. Richard Elliott and Mr. and Mrs. Ellwood Elliott at Holyrood. Mrs. Ross Errington is spend- ing a few days with her mother, Mrs. James Little, who is a pa- tient in Victoria Hospital, London. Mr. and Mts. Gordon Mc- Intyre and Don of Richmond Hill were Easter visitors with Mr. and Mrs, W. I. Miller and Isobel. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Miller and Larry of London visited there and with Mr. and Mrs. Chester Taylor, Don and Larry are visiting here for the week. One secretary to another: "You'll love it here—once you accept the fact that there's ab- soloutely no chance for ad- vancement, raises or marriage;' By Vonni Ler Hope as host. He approached the podium with the strains of "Young at Heart" being played in the background, by the orchestra conducted by Alfred Newman, Unlike Hope, who kept the audience laughing, Sinatra's writers attempted very little funny work. What few jokes he did deliver, fell flat on their faces, and he got his biggest laughs with the ad-libs he interjected here and there. Occasionally, it seemed he didn't know the show's format and didn't have a clue what was coming next. Once, while introducing a filmed segment, he turned offstage and said, "Is that right?" But despite his little slips, he was a gracious and charming host, perfectly at ease, and will no doubt be invited back as host for years to come. 0--0--0 The movie everyone was talking about as they left the auditorium, was "Lawrence of Arabia"; out of the ten nomina- tions it received, it walked away with seven Oscars, in- cluding awards for sound, music score, art direction, and cin- ematography. It also claimed two of the top awards when its director, David Lean (he was interviewed by Joyce Davidson the night previous, on 'Close- up') won over four other direc- tors; and the picture itself won for the 'best picture of the year', defeating " The Longest Day", " The Music Man", "Mutiny on The Bounty", and "To Kill a Mockingbird". "Mockingbird" was the pic- ture that came second to "Law- rence" in winnings, when it won for best art direction (black and white), best screen writing, and its star Gregory Peck, as Atticus, won the best actor honours, defeating Peter O'Toole ("Lawrence"), Jack Lemmon ("Days of Wine and Roses"), Marcello Mastroi- anni ("Divorce -- Italian Style"), and Burt Lancaster ("Birdman of Alcatrez"). He wasn't my choice, (I was root- ing for Lemmon) but I was ob- viously alone, for the applause was deafening when his name was announced, the biggest ovation of the evening, in fact. Speaking of 'Mockingbird', don't miss it when it conies to Western Ontario. Even if it didn't win for 'best picture', it will be talked about for years, as an outstanding production. 0--0--0 Best actress was Anne Ban- croft for her role in " The Miracle Worker". Her award was accepted by Joan Craw- ford; Miss Bancroft is in New York appearing in a stage play. She won over Bette Davis ("Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?"), Katherine Hep- burn (" Long Day's Journey into Night"), Geraldine Page ("Sweet Bird of Youth"), and Lee Remick ("Wine and Roses"), and apparently Holly'd got the surprise of its life, Everyone expected either Davis or Page to take the statue, It was no surprise to me; if she hadn't won, my entire faith in the honesty of the show would have been destroyed! This same pic- ture ieture also took another major award, when 16 -year-old Patty Duke raced up the aisle to accept her Oscar for her magnificent performance as Helen Keller, This is the first time an acting award has been given to a juvenile; they have received special awards before. Patty retained her composure very well, until she began her acceptance speech. Then the tears could no longer be con- trolled and all she could man- age was a faint 'thank -you'. 0--0--0 Best supporting actor was Ed Begley for his performance in "Sweet Bird of Youth". And the best song of the year, with hardly any cornpetition, was "Days of Wine and Roses" — words by Hank Mancini, music by Johny Mercer, the same team whose "Moon River" won last year. It defeated "Follow Me" from "Mutiny on the Bounty", "Second Chance" from "Two For The Seesaw", and the title songs from "Ten- der Is the Night" and "Walk on the Wild Side". All these tunes were sung in a medley by Rob Goulet, in one of the three musical numbers of the show. The other singing stars were Ethel Merman, who sang an Irving Berlin medley and Eddie Fisher, who did a medley of former Oscar songs. He also took the honours as receiving the second largest ovation of the evening. For the first time this year, all presentations were made by former Oscar winners, includ- ing Ginger Rogers, Audrey Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Bette Davis, Sophia Loren, Max Schell, and many others. 0--0--0 Special news for TV this week, is a 2-1/4 hour pro- duction of Verdi's opera"Oth- ello" on Monday (22nd) at 8:30; and on Saturday, after saying good-bye to NHL Hock- ey, 'Great Movies' will re- turn for the summer.
