When they return- ed from Chichester in April, they immediately went into re- hearsals for the plays at Strat- ford, where the first play open- ed on June 15th. During these past 16 weeks, the .company, which included great perform- ers like William Hutt, John Colicos, Frances Hyland, Douglas Rain, Diana Maddox, Eric House, Martha Henry, and so many others, has presented 38 performances of "Richard II", with Hutt in the title role, 43 performances of "King Lear" starring John Colicos, 29 of "The Bourgeois Gentlemen" with Douglas Rain, and 19 of "The Country Wife" which starred Helen Burns. An excel- lent average attendance of 86% was reported. Also during the season, 58 performances of two operas, "Yeomen of The Guard" and "The Marriage of Figaro" were presented in the newly -renovated Avon Theatre. The starring players are de- finitely not idle, though, now that Stratford has closed its theatre doors. John Colicos is the only one taking off on a short vacation, which he cer- tainly deserves. Then he goes to New York to begin rehearsal for a new play "All Honourable Men" which is scheduled to open in December. Frances Hyland, Douglas Rain, Martha Henry, William Needles, and Len Cariou, all go to Winnipeg for a production at the Mani- toba Theatre Centre. Also in some of the theatre's produc- tions, andstarring in its tour- ing group, will be Suzanne Grossman, Al Kozlik, Heath Lamberts, and more of the younger members of the com- pany. Leo Ciceri, Diana Maddox, and Eric Christmas are giving Shakespeare read- ings at a New York college, af- ter which Mr, Ciceri will co- star in a production of "Julius Caesar" in San Francisco. Hel- en Burns and William E-lutt will be filling television engage- ments, the first for Mr. Hutt being on the Wayne and Shuster Hour on "Show of The Week", October 19th. Seven players will also be parts of touring groups in Canada, Tony Van Bridge, Amelia Hall, Max Ilclpmann, and Mervyn Blake for a production of "Passion and Destiny", and Hugh Webster, !Eric !louse, and Bruno Gerussi for "All About tis" which opens in Winnipeg on October 28th. 0--0--0 T'he i9(1 season is just nice- ly over, and already plaits arc being made for the 1965 season, again to be 16 weeks in length.

COMMERCIAL LEAGUE It looks as if Old Man Winter has been busy spreading a few Flu bugs around, as several of our members were sick this week. We thank Jim Deneau, Jack Walker, Ed and Joan Yeo- man, Vicki Wild and Shirley Hanula for coming to the res- cue. The Lions are still roaring, but the Wildcats are spitting as they start their fight for first place. Lott's Lions 15; Wal- den's Wildcats 12; Storey's Seals 10; Templeman's Tigers 7; Cameron's Cougars 5; Bairis Beavers 2. Ladies; high single went to Grace Walden with 271; Grace also went all out for victory by getting another point for her team with a high triple of 601. However, this honor was shared with Joan Yeoman who also got a triple of 601. Don Cameron wasn't so generous. He took the men's high single with 289 and the high triple with 692, Nice bowling, Don. WED. NIGHT MIXED LEAGUE The Wednesday night mix- ed league got under way last week with the election of of- ficers as follows: President, Ken Saxton; secretary, Barry Gibson; treasurer, Betty Lee and press reporter, Fred Lee. The 1964-65 bowling got off to a good start with Keith Broome taking the men's high single, 263. Ken Saxton came up with three good frames to take the high triple with 646. Marion Maclntyre had the high scores for the ladies, with a single of 232 and a triple of 628. Keep up the good work Marriage of Figaro", which was so successful this year, will be repeated at Stratford in 1965 with a second opera to be chosen later. 0--0--0 It is not really hard to see why "The Fantasticks" has been such a hit in New York for all these five years. It was writ- ten by Tont Jones (not the one in the tnovie!) and I Iarvey Schmidt, who might well be your next-door neighbours if those neighbours have talent, that is, and it has been playing to pleased audicttct:s for five years at the Sullivan St. Play- house, just off Broadway. It is typical boy-meets-girl, buy - loses -girl, boy - and - girl -ma lie - up story that is so familiar, hut it has just enough fantasy to stake it tttnclt more entertain- ing than the usual rtut-of-thc- uti1l tttitsieal comedy.

They bagged two moose, one with an antler spread of 54 inches and the oth- er, 51 inches. A small boy watched his older brother leap out of his car, run around to the other side, and open the door for his girl friend. The youngster turned sadly to his buddy. "Jack always has to do that, " he said, "She's pretty, but she's not very strong."
