TRANSPORT LTD. HEAD OFFICE WINGHAM Phone 357-2050 Fishes of Ontario WALLEYE The name walleye has re- ference to the glassy appear- ance of the eye. The body of the walleye is elongate, the head long and conical, and the mouth large. The jaws contain large canine or tearing teeth, The two dor- sal fins are well separated; the first is spinous and the second soft -rayed, The membranes between the last two or three spines of the dorsal fin are inky black. When the side of the fish is stroked from the back to the front, it feels rough to the touch. This is owing to pat- ches of spinelike prickles (ctenii) on the -xposed portions of the scales, Which have been aptly named ct noid scales. Coloration if; olive -brown or dark brown with brassy yellow mottlings (never bluish) sprink- led over the body and head. A careful observer will note that the lower lobe of the tail fin has a very distinct creamy or white margin. The walleye is found through- out Ontario and is particularly common in the Great Lakes basin. in Northern Ontario it Juniors Hold Bali Game The Junior Conservation Club held a ball game at the club grounds on Thursday eve- ning. After the game they en- joyed a wiener barbecue. Nineteen boys attended and the instructors in charge were Albert Rintoul and Ross Worm - worth. is incredibly abundant, It thrives in clear, cold lakes and rivers, especially where there are extensive for- age and spawning areas; a wide range of several miles is desir- able. The walleye may attain a length of three feet and a weight of 25 pounds. The av- erage weight of specimens taken by angling is three pounds, but fish weighing five pounds or more are not un- common. During May and June, and again in October and Novem- ber, it provides more sport to the average angler than many gamier fish. APPROVE SUMMER PROGRAM PeeWee Baseball House league is Now Playing It was reported at a meeting of the Recreation Committee on Tuesday evening of last week, that the pee wee base- ball house league is now oper- ating. Half the group plays on Tuesday evenings and the re- mainder on Saturday mornings. The junior girls' softball team has not been formed, because of lack of interest, The Committee feels that the fence at the park could be repaired or replaced and will 'Tis Show Biz Review Week June 19-26 We said good-bye to Jo Staf- ford last week when she present- ed her final show of the season on the 'Playdate' series. And it was the best show of the series too, though mind you, she con- tributed nothing! Her show was designed to tell viewers about the greatest vaudeville theatre in existence today, The Palla- dium in London, and was of course, filmed in the English capital (as were all her shows) and in the Palladium itself. Her guide was one of the finest Brit- ish actors, Robert Morley, and together they relived about , some of the great talents that • S'°:MABEL, BLACK LABEIY Try Black Label... and you'll know why it's Canada's best-selling beer • By Venni Lee have performed at the Pallad- ium; Will Fyfe, Sir Harry Lau- der, Gracie Fields, and so many more could be added, Their guest that evening was Stanley Holloway, who almost seems out of place to us, if he isn't singing a song from "My Fair Lady". Obviously though, he is a credit to anyone's music for he certainly supplied excellent entertainment. I feel badly that these vaudeville theatres have died out so completely in North America. I think it's the finest kind of stage entertain- ment there is, and I commend the Palladium for keeping it alive. It's to be hoped that this great old theatre doesn't meet the same fate as so many others—that of being converted into a television studio. Some- how, though, I can't picture people buying tickets for an entire evening of Jo Stafford, unless they want to take an expensive nap 0--0--0 "Flashback" was another series that signed off last week, and despite rumours to the con- trary, it looks as though it may be back with us next year, too. That was a strange show. Be- fore it began, it was hailed as the best new show of the season; a few weeks after it went on the air, it was panned badly and there was even talk of axing it in mid-season; now, at the close of its first season, it has gained in popularity and is returning for a second spin. It hasn't really been spectacular but, thinking back over the year, it has provided a glimpse into some interesting lives and has brought back many charming stars of yester-years to captiv- ate Canadian audiences. For instance, do you remember the night that the original boop- boop-a-doop girl, Helen Kane, appeared? or Jane Withers? or Joan Caulfield? Mary Pickford and her husband, Buddy Rogers, came back to her home town; Barbara Ann Scott and Marilyn Bell relived their successful accomplishments; Bert Pearl and his Happy Gang members sent tears of nostalgia streaming down Maggie Morris' face. Then there was Henry Aldrich, Tarzan, Helen Trent, Sabu, and so many others that we came to know from the early days of movies and radio. And The Shadow and Zasu Pitts . both of whom have passed away since their appearances. The days of the 'Our Gang' comedies and 'Keystone Cops' were relived, as well as mems oriel of the Chautauqua, barn- storming, prohibition, and the bicycle -built -for -two. And they could not have found a grander couple than Mt. and Mrs. Gene Raymond to say good- bye to their audience. They Were charming and it was not contact the town council in this regard. The Lions Club has requested permission to use the park the last three days of August, for Frontier Days. The Committee also decid- ed to send a letter to the River- side Parks Commission, request- ing that a better grade of sand be used at the swimming area. Two local girls, Jane Cruik- shank and Marilyn Riley, are attending the Lake Huron Zone instructors' course being held this week at Goderich, and will then assist with the summer program here. The summer in- struction program and pool schedule drawn up by the super- visor, Bob McIntyre, were ap- proved. In future each member of the Committee will receive a copy of the Ontario Recreation Association booklet. Represent- atives epresentatives of the Film Council, Figure Skating Club, Lions, Kinsmen and Town Council were present at the meeting. hard to see why Jeanette Mac- Donald was the big star she was, with her lovely singing voice to add to her beauty and person- ality plus. Yes, the more you thin't of it, the more you real- ize that "Flashback" wasn't such a dud after all, I'm look- ing forward to seeing it return in the fall, How 'bout you? 0--0--0 Just between you and me, isn't it nice to hear a feminine voice (particularly that of Mag- gie Morris) giving the CBC - Television breaks, for a change% Ed Sullivan has celebrated his fifteenth year in show bus- iness, only five years to the magic number of twenty. And when you think of that, the ob- vious question can be stolen from comedians—" Why is he such a hit? He doesn't DO any- thing!" But you can't argue with TV ratings, and a hit for fifteen years he has been, and he deserves a good slap on the back because he has brought more great entertainment to the country than anyone else. His anniversary show last week was made up of acts that he has featured since he first went on the air in 1948, and was a mem- orial to the late Gertrude Law- rence, Oscar Hammerstein II, Gary Cooper, Clark Gable, Charles Laughton, and the mem- bers of the Wallenda circus act who lost their lives in a high - wire mishap last year. And it's funny but, although pros like Helen Hayes and the late Charles Laughton always pro- vide stirring drama, the star that really shone in his minute, was Jimmy Durante, about whom you could say the same as Ed—What has made him the great and everlasting star that he is? Jackie Gleason and Red Skelton were the comedy stars that made the largest impact, the Lerner -and -Loewe comp- ositions from "Camelot" and the "Grand Night for Singing" tribute to Richard Rodgers, was music at its best. And did you notice? Most of the stars that appeared with Ed, many in their debuts, are today among the biggest stars in the world. I guess that's why he's so suc- cessful. The young wife on her first fishing trip was working busily over her line. Finally her hus- band asked her what she was doing. "I'm changing corks, dear," she answered sweetly. " This one keeps sinking." CAN YOU CONTROL YOUR CAR? To be a safe driver, you need a safe car. Your auto burns up wheel alignment four times faster than spark plugs!
