I have long enjoyed their folk singing and it was hard to imagine that they could excel in anything else. But they also are brilliant per- formers when they lay down their guitars and start making with the jokes. Although the script was rather weak and ri- diculous, it did show their flair for comedy particularly that of Torn, the blonde mem- ber of the duo. He's the fun- ny man in the folk singing rout- ines too, and this show, about an amateur spy, was centered around him, with brother Dick only there to provide the straight lines. I would have preferred a half-hour of folk - music, as only the Smothers can sing it, but this proved they do have other capabilities, and maybe the network will take the hint and cast them in something really worthwhile. Their supporting players in the comedy were Sharon Acker, Carol Starkman who is looking younger and tauter every day, and Al Bertram, real-life hus- band of Shirley Harmer.

CLIP THIS FOR REFERENCE By Vonni Lee Speaking of Shirley, she and French-Canadian star Jacques Normand, in their roles as hostess and host of the third "Show From Two Cities", were charming replacements for Ed Sullivan on Sunday evening. This series, the brainchild of the late Don Hudson, began last autumn. The first produc- tion was by Hudson himself; after his tragic death in that Christmas plane crash near Montreal, production on the second was taken over by CBS - Montreal. This month's show was produced by Bob Jarvis in Toronto and was much better than the last presentation. My only complaint is that the stars are not properly introduced, unless of course, you happen to be bilingual and know what everyone is talking about, As far as I'm concerned, every French name, noun, verb, and preposition sounds like the one before, and since most of us are not familiar with these stars who work out of Montreal, the faces pass on unnoticed, and unidentified. The songs used in this show were novel and catchy, and the spoof on the NHL was terrific and much too brief. To me, the standout segment, was the comedy skit about the Montrealer (Olivier Guimond) in Toronto, and the clever interspersing of celebri- ties (Bill Walker as doorman, Gordon Sinclair as oellhop, Fred Davis as desk clerk, Juliette as chambermaid, and Earl Camer- on as policeman), added inter- est and excitement. 0--0--0 Wingham should be proud of its Harmony Men. They put on a fine show on the locally - produced "10;30 Show"on_Mon- lay everting. 'would like tohave heard more specialty numbers with quartets, etc; and I must be truthful and state that some z.ould have spread more sun - thine and not looked quite so )ored, but all in all, the 30 minutes were entertaining, Nothing, not even the Beatles, can compete with the good - old fashioned close harmony! 0--0--0 And while we're on the loc- al scene, I must ask Crawford Douglas what is so special about that 'wet rain' that was falling on parts of Canada last weekend. I may be dense, but I don't know of any otherkindl 0--0--0 While all of North America was following with interest, a trial in Dallas this month, show business folk have been follow'. ing another in Los Angeles. That was the trial of the three men accused of kidnapping Frank Sinatra Jr. from the Lake Tahoe,,, Nevada club where he was entertaining last December, Counsel for the defense first charged that the entire plot had been a stunt staged by Sinatra for publicity. But the Sinatra family needs publicity like an- other head, so everyone, in- cluding the members of the jury, ruled out that idea. When the trial ended they found the two younger defendants, Barry Keenan and Joseph Amsler, both 23, guilty of the crime and they were sentenced to no less than life imprisonment. J. Irwin, 42, considered to be the brains behind the plot, is still awaiting sentence. Keenan and Amsler are now undergoing psychiatric examination, and if proven to be of sound mind, an appeal will probably be the next step taken by their law' yers. Seems to me, the boys are getting a raw deal all a- round; what with all the more serious crimes being commit- ted in Hollywood every day, rP Wingham, Advance - Times, Thursday, April 2, 1964- Page 7 Please save your Waste Paper for the BOY SCOUTS All-Star Game Won By Southern Group The WOAA Intermediate All -Stars played before a crowd of almost 600 in the Hanover Coliseum last Wednesday,. and the Southern group came out on the long end of a 5-4 score. The game was very well played — and the crowd was kept quite interested from the opening face-off right through to the dying seconds of the game wher the Northern All-Star 8oalie was pulled, in an unsuccessful bid to tie the score. At the conclusion of the game, Junior Beaumont of 'Ac- ton and Sparky Weiler of Walk- erton, the two coaches, select- ed two stars of the game. The) were B. Dobbie of Fergus, who scored three of the south team's goals; and Ced Cowie of Han- over, who scored one goal in a losing cause. These two play- ers were presented with a hat, courtesy Bill Gardhouse of Owen Sound, by A.J. Lock - ridge, business manager of the WOAA.

They all fought as if their lives depended on the out- come. Our ladies' high single went to Shirley Storey with260 and also the high triple with 629. Joe Schneider took the men's high single with 323 and Mery Templeman the high tri- ple with 684. Our spares were Vicki Wild, Helen Casemore, Gord Rapson and Walter Brown.

His extraordin- ary talent will be missed in the theatre, and lack of his private life escapades will make the world much drearier. Mystery movie -watching will not be the same without meek, and mild, squeaky -voiced and pie -eyed Peter Lorre, who died in Hollywood last week, after suffering a stroke. The 59 -year old Hungarian actor was probably the most identif- iable star in Jiollywood, his name always associated with murder and suspense. At the time of his death, he was sep- arated from his third wife whom he married in 1953. Their ten-year -old daughter also survives. the players was presented with a trophy in honour of his being selected as an all-star. These trophies donated by the Carl- ing Brewing Company, were presented by Sparky Weiler. The Anstett Trophy, for the leading goalie in the Northern Division, was shared by the two Walkerton Goalies, Terry Faul• kner (last year's winner) and Bob Collingham. Bob Marsh- all, convener of the southern group, presented this trophy. The Molson trophy, for the leading scorer in the Northern Division was won by Gary Jun- iper of the Walkerton Capitals, and presented by WOAA pres- ident John Crewson. 1ST PERIOD Goals: 1.

TedWormworth Is Trophy Winner • Ted Wormworth stripped his rink of co-workers at Mutual Life in Kitchener to victory on Saturday at the Glenbriar Curl- ing Club, with three wins and 40 3/4 points. The event was for the Club's Men's Championship and a to- tal of 56 rinks competed. Each member of the winning rink received a set of TV tables and they will hold the troph until next season's competition. MEM geoafbig activities PACK "A" On Tuesday of last week the regular meeting of Pack "A" was held at the Scout House, with leaders, Akala M.Friden- burg and A.C.M. Don Rintoul, and thirty Cubs in attendance. A.C.M. Louise Lloyd was still in the SUNNY SOUTH. The meeting opened in the usual manner. A neatness inspection followed with the woggle for the neatest and most improved Cub going to Cub Billy Fuller. The task of selecting becomes increasingly difficult, due to the improvement in the appear ance of all the boys. A series of games followed, under the direction of A.C.M. Don Rintoul, while several boys were instructed on Tender pad Tests. Examiner Bill Conron tested four boys for Semophore Code. They were Brian Brooks, David Lloyd, Randy Hafermehl and Norman Gorrie. Akala congra- tulated the boy!;, as they all passed the test. This test was also the final one for Cub Brian Brooks, and he has now com- pleted all his tests for his Sec- ond Star, which will be pre- sented to him at the Father and Son Banquet, Tuesday, April 7th, 0--0--0 1ST WINGHAM TROOP The weekly meeting was held in the Scout House on Wednesday with about 25 boys present, along with the regular leaders Crawford Douglas and Ross Hastings. A new leader, Mr. Wilson, a member of the Ontario Provincial Police for this district, talked to the Scouts on bicycle safety. Best Scout of the evening was Ted Ahara of the Buffalo patrol, who won five points for his patrol. As usual, Dave Langridge led the Scouts in an exercise. The Stag patrol, duty patrol for the night, turned the meeting over to Crawford Douglas for dismissal. About 40 per cent of all cat- tle in West Germany were af- fected by tuberculosis in 1952. An eradication program started then has rendered these cattle 99.9 per cent free of the dis- ease.
