Young Frank was snatched, at gun- point, from the Lake Tahoe, Nevada club "Harrah's", just as he was ready to go on stage with Sam Donohue's Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, with whom he has been regular vocalist for a num- ber of months. He was held hos- tage for more than two days, not in the Nevada mountains as everyone thought, but back in Los Angeles. The FBI and the Sinatra family, Frank in Reno, his first wife Nancy and two daughters Nancy 23, and Tina 16, in Beverly Hills, were more than alarmed and feared great- ly what these imbeciles might do to Frankie. On Wednesday morning he was released after his father paid a ransom of $240,000. to his kidnappers. He had not been harmed, was only exhausted, and was resting at his mother's home in Cali- fornia, His father was also there, getting ready to -cele- brate his birthday on the follow- ing day. "This," he said hap- pily, "is the best present Icould possibly get!" 0--0--0 Last week's production was the beginning of a new story in the "Bonanza" series, It was, you will recall, the story of a young widow Laura Dayton, played by Kathie Browne, who was afraid to tell her young daugh- ter Peggy that her father was dead. Adam Cartwright was cast as the new-found friend of the Daytons, and as weeks go by the relationship between Laura and Adam will ripen in- to love and culminate in mar- riage. Originally it was plan- ned to forget about Adam after he took the plunge, as Adam, (Pernell Roberts in real life) wanted to be free of his com- mitments. However, that ap- parently has changed now and Adam will still be a frequent face at the Ponderosa, though probably not as home -loving as he has been. 0--0--0 The man who has brought more laughter to the world than anyone else, and who has spent more Christmases away from home in order to do so, will he spending Christmas with his family this year, though througl no wishes of his. Comedian I3ob Ilopc has been forced to cancel his trip to the islands of The Mediterranean Sea, and in fact, even had to bow out of his television show this month. Ile has checked into hospital once again for treatment of an cyc ailument, the same trouble which plagued him a few years ago. "It hinders my form on the golf course", he said jok- ingly, when he checked in. Actually, though, it is no jok- ing matter; thc cataract which cost hits partial sight of his one cyc earlier, is much more ser- ious than Bobwill admit. llut we could expect nothing else. By Vonni Lee Bob will continue to serve oth- ers with his enormous talent un- til the final curtain falls, and he'll be the last one to com- plain about his problems. The service boys will be even lone- lier this Christmas, not only for their families back home, but also for Bob Hope, a great guy who carries Christmas with him all year 'round! 0--0--0 Canada and its entertain- ment world suffered another tragedy within the last month, with the Montreal plane crash which claimed 118 lives, among them, that of Don Hud- son, CBC's best producer of variety entertainment. His first "Show From Two Cities" was shown in November and he was working on the second, commuting from Toronto and Montreal, the two cities invol- ved. These productions would have been the variety high- lights of the year; now it is doubtful that they ever will be shown. No one could possibly substitute the 'Hudson' touch of perfection. 0--0--0 Some excellent motion pic- tures are to be shown on both Wingham's CKNX-Television and Kitchener's TV 13 within the next few weeks before and after Christmas. Some of Wing - ham's standout productions are a top musical, "On ,onlight Bay" with Doris Day and Gordon MacRae (Dec. 21st, 11:30 p.m.);, an excellent western "Drango" (18th, 1 p.m.) starring Joanne Dru and the late Jeff Chandler; "Wintertime" (26t1,, 1 p.m.) for some great skating by Sonja Hcnie; Christmas Day Starlight Theatre, "Come To The Stable" with Loretta Young and Celeste Holm (11:30 p.m.); and "The Easy Way", thc movie story of the 'Room For One More' Rose family, starring Cary Grant and Betsy Drake (27th. 11:30 p.m.). Up-to-date movies which CKCO -TV 13 will be showing include "The White Cliffs of Dover" (21st, 11:40 p.m.) starring Irene Dunne and Peter Lawford; "The Unforgivcn" with I3urt Lan- caster and Audrey Ilepburn (26th, 11:40); and a wealth of fine motion pictures on Christ- mas Day — a cartoon feature "Gulliver's Travels" for the kids at 10:30 a.m.; for the adults; "The Bells of St. Marys" at 12:45 p.m.; "A Christmas Carol" at 4:30; "Good S;un" starring the late Gary Cooper at 7:30; and "God Is My Partner" with Walter Brennan at 11:15 p.m. (same one on CKNX on the 22nd). So if you and your fainily arc staying near home this Holiday Season, why not resolve to include some of Wes- tern Ontario's fine television entertainment in your mei ri- mein? And may I take this op- portunity to wish all readers of this column a joyous and peace- ful Christmas.

Brother Escapes Tragic Air Crash Donald King, an employee of Hostess Food Products of Pres- ton who had spent a week in Halifax on company business, was returning home on Novem- ber 29th and in Montreal found he had a choice of two flights. He took the earlier one. Mr. King was anxious to get home as early as possible, He planned to attend the ordination service in Bishop Cronyn Mem- orial Church, London, on Sat- urday when his brother, Rev. John R. King of Lucknow would be ordained into the Anglican priesthood. The flight two hours later carried 118 persons to sudden death in the Lauren- tian foothills, about 20 miles from Montreal. Rev. King had been in re- treat along with other clergy- 1 1 men and did not hear nor read any news. It was Saturday mor- ning when he heard of the tra- gic accident and he feared that his brother was on that flight and that he was not being told until after the ceremony. It was with relief and joy that he saw his mother and brother at the communion service.
