The Wingham Advance-Times, 1963-12-12, Page 16Page 8 — Thursday, Dec. 12, Mrs. H. Nethery Guild Hostess BELGRAVE—The Ladies' Guild of Trinity Anglican Church held its Christmas meet, ing at the home of Mrs, Her- man Nethery on Thursday. The meeting opened.with singing "0 Little Town of Bethlehem" and Mrs, Clare VanCamp led in prayer. The Lord's prayer was repeated in unison. Scrip- ture lesson was read by Mary Isobel Nethery. Minutes of the last meeting were read by Mrs. Alex Neth- ery in the absence of Mrs. Proc- ter. The treasurer, Mrs. Coop- er Nethery, reported a profit of $130.00 from catering to the Soil and Crop Improvement banquet. Plans were made for the congregational pot luck sup- per to be held in the Foresters' Hall on December 23. Follow- ing the supper the children will present their concert, under the direction of Mary Isobel Neth- ery and Linda Johnston. It is ^ hoped that following the pro- gram Santa Claus will make an appearance. The roll call was answered with a Christmas verse. Mrs. Robert Procter gave a Christ- mas message. Mrs. Clare Van - Camp read "The Way of An- gels". The dues were collect- ed and the birthday box and apron passed around. Mrs. Van - Camp closed with prayer and grace was sung and lunch serv- ed by the hostess. 'Tis Show BIZ I really do not think that the great singers of Canada need fear that their careers are being threatened by Toby Robins, for although her musical talent was admirable on last week's Festi- val production, "The Slave of Truth", it was not all that start- ling! She played the part of Celimene in the musical based on Moliere's "Le Misanthrope", which was taped last spring in Toronto. The music in the play was written by Toronto's Stan Daniels, who has written a number of English revues, and much of the material in the Canadian revue "Spring Thaw". His compositions were wonder- ful, reminiscent of Gilbert -and - Sullivan material a'. times.And rather than Toby holding my attention with her singing abili- ty, it was the two male lead actors who I thought made ex- cellent debuts in musical roles. Janes Douglas, who played the lead role of Alceste and stars in the recently shown movie," The Drylanders", has an exception- ally fine singing voice, as has Leo Ciceri, who played Philin- te and also has become a well- known actor in Canada. TI'ie other performer whose enormous' talent impressed me was Tom 1 4 Victoria and Grey Trust Company Guaranteed Investment Certificates r)3 f oi z,:w4' 0.

Another top role was taken by Michael Learned, in real life wife of actor Peter Dort - at, but she, much more so than Toby, oughta stick to acting! In plain grammar, she 'sure ain't no songbird! 0--0--0 Speaking of folks who have absolutely no ear for music, Dick Shatto must have been with Michael behind that door when the crooners were being served! He's the Toronto Argo- naut football star who made a guest appearance on Juliette's show last week, and 'tried to' display his musical talent. He's certainly no Frank Sinatra; in fact, beside him, Julie even sounded great! But he's a good sport in more ways than one. He's a tremendous fellow when it comes to helping handicap- ped children and his appearance put a nice finishing touch to Grey Cup Day. 0--0--0 Enough of my complaining. Now I must give credit where it is due -- to Hank Mancini who starred on Parade last week. He is obviously much more at home behind a sheet of music than in front of a camera; he looked very uncomfortable and nervous in conversations with Fred Davis. But he should care! As long as he has a sheet of pa- per and a pen, he's in business! He will be long remembered as one of the greatest composers of jazz (Who can forget his 'Peter Gunn' and 'Mr. Lucky' music?), but he has also writ- ten some of the most beautiful ballads to be heard by this or any generation. All have been movie themes, and written in partnership with Johny Mercer, who penned the lyrics. "Moon River" was from the Audrey Hepburn starter " Breakfast at Tiffany's"; "Days of Wine and Roses" from the picture of the same name, which starred Lee Remick and Jack Lemmon; and his newest is "Charade" from the Hepburn -Cary Grant picture of the same name. The former two won him Academy Awards in the last two years, and I'm betting "Charade" will earn him another, come next April. 0--0--0 Hollywood is bowing its head in sorrow and shame this week, mourning the death of a former star and a promising young ac- tress, and wondering how such a tragedy could occur in the beautiful little town. Sabu, the Indian actor, who rocketed to fame after an adventure movie called "Elephant Boy" when he was but a lad, died last week, victim of a heart attack at the age of 39. He was born in In- dia, and discovered there when a Hollywood producer was mak- ing a picture on location. He has been out of the movie lime- light for some time; lately he has been in the furniture bus- iness in Van Nuys, Cal. His last picture, which he thought may have been the beginning of a comeback, was "Rampage", made last year. 0--0--0 Karyn Kupcinet, 22 -year- old actress, and one of the most promising of the new crop, was found strangled in her Holly- wood apartment on Saturday, Nov. 30th. She was the daugh- ter of a famous Chicago colum- nist and television star, and close friend of Arthur Godfrey, Iry Kupcinct and his wife, a member of a wealthy Chicago family. !ler grandmother had been visiting with her and had just left for home, so Karyn was living alone at the time of lier death. Her body was found by friends, actor Mark Goddard and his wife. Goddard was the young and handsome 'Chris Ballard' of the Robert Taylor TV series "The Detectives". Karyn had been a dinner guest at their home on the Wednes- day previous, and when they could not reach her by phone fur three days, they decided to investigate. No clues have yet been turned up by police, and since the killer had a thrce- day start this may turn out to E. WAWANOSH Council Agrees to Join Planning Bd. Reeve E. R. Snell presided for the East Wawanosh Council meeting when the clerk was authorized to sign the resolu- tion to form a planning board with the townships of Turnberry, Morris, East Wawanosh and Wingham. It was moved by Gow and Pattison that the clerk write to the minister of highways, thank- ing him for the raise in subsidy on road expenditure from 50 to 60 per cent. A motion was passed that the Reeve Snell and Clerk R. H, Thompson sign the agreement with the Department of Agri- culture on regard to the Bel - grave Arena. ROAD CHEQUES C. W.

Karyn was one of this year's Deb Stars, named by studios as young hope- fuls in the entertainment world, and was, by far, the most beau- tiful of the girls chosen. She had appeared on many televis- ion series; her last, which she had just completed, was on a Perry Mason episode which we will be seeing soon.
