A persistent salesman refus-
ed to leave when the secretary
told him her boss was out, An
hour passed then two. Finally,
weary of being a prisoner in his
own office, the boss admitted
the salesman.
"My secretary told you I was
out," exclaimed the puzssled
boss, "How'd you know I was
in?"
"Easy, " explained the sales-,
man, "she was working."

It will remain as ageless as
time itself, in a Glass with such
everlasting favourites as "Peter
Pan", "Cinderella", "Sleeping
Beauty" and so many others. It
is "The Wizard of Oz" and it is
returned to television screens
each year, in the motion pic-
ture form in which it originally
appeared. We saw it on Sun-
day evening of last week, re-
placing, for that evening,
"Hank", ''Flashback'', and The
Ed Sullivan Show. Old friend
Danny Kaye was the show's host.
'The Wizard of Oz" was the
movie that rocketed a young
girl by the name of Judy Gar-
land, to stardom. She plays the
role of Dorothy, a young Kan-
sas farm girl who wants to go to
a land where there is 'no trou-
ble'. When a tornado strikes
Kansas, Dorothy is whisked off
to the wonderful magical fan-
tasyland of Oz. But Dorothy
learns that no place is without
trouble, and discovers that her
own backyard is the best place
to be after all.
The movie was made in
1939, and in addition to intro-
ducing a new star, it also
brought to the public's atten-
tion a song called, "Over The
Rainbow", which came to be
identified with the star and
went on to win that year's Os-
car and become one of the most
beautiful standards of all time.
The entire musical score, in
fact, won awards for composers
Harold Arlen and E. Y. Her-
burg. Songs like "We're Off to
See the Wizard", " If Only Had
a Heart", "The Merry Old Land
of Oz", and "Follow the Yel-
low Brick Road", are kept alive
with the annual return of the
production.
Other performers who made
the movie a pleasure were Ray
Bolger, as The Scarecrow, the
lovable Bert Lahr as The Cow-
ardly Lion, Jack Haley as The
Tin Woodman, Margaret Ham-
ilton as The Wicked Witch,
Billie Burke as The Good Witch,
Frank Morgan as The Wizard of
Oz, and The Singing Midgets,
as the residents of the magical
land. And what a pity that
Judy Garland could not have re-
mained as sweet -- and pretty-
-- and as talented -- as she was
then!

From the pleasant land of
Oz and its delightful little peo-

about "Second Car"

Should both cars carry
the same insurance? Is
the cost the same for
both cars? Will teen-

of the questions that

great movie monsters, In real
life, of course, they were such
friendly folks as Bela Lugosi,
Boris Karloff, and Lon Chaney
Jr,
The Germans began by make
ing some of the best horror
movies, and are still turning
out some fine ones. 1931 was
the beginning for Hollywood's
biggest seaters. And despite
what Johny and Frank said about
monsters being lovable, they
still do a mighty good job of
scaring the wits out of the pub-
lic. Crazy as they were, they
'were entertaining, and a fel-
low was always sure his gal
would end up in his arms if he
took her to see one of their
pictures! Movie producers have
long since passed them by; tele-
vision is the real villain re-
sponsible for making a laugh-
ing-stock of the frightening
vampires, with the arrival of
"The Munsters", "The Addams
Family", etc.

His name is Bill Raisch and
he is a star, seen every week
on a popular television series.
Never heard of him, huh? No
wonder! He never says a word
on his series, but he's there,
regular as clockwork. He's the
familiar, snarling 'one-armed
man' that Richard Kimble is
seeking for the murder of Kim-
ble's wife. Kimble himself is
"The Fugitive" on the series of
the same name, the man whom
many people think to be guilty.
On last week's episode, Kimble,
with the help of a female re-
porter, found his one-armed
man, only to have him slip
through his fingers again, hence
leaving both of them still 'on
the run' at the show's end.
Though Kimble is still con-
vinced that he is the murderer,
and he himself confessed to the
killing in last week's episode,
Bill, in real life, is non-com-
mital when asked about it. In
fact, he even implies that both
he and Kimble are innocent --
which could be a new topic for
a coming show. If neither of
them killed her, then who did?
Bill has been in show busi-
ness much of his life. He was
once a dancer, but after he lost
his arm in a fire at sea during
the Second World War, he turn-
ed to acting. He went to Hol-
lywood in the late '40s and be-
came stand-in for actor Burt
Lancaster, a job he still holds.
He is now working with him in
"The Professionals", being film-
ed on location in Nevada and
Eastern California. Since the
beginning of "The Fugitive",
Bill has received many fan let-
ters. "Most of them", he says
"are sympathetic".
What do you think? Is the
one-armed man really guilty?
l Or is the tall, dark and hand-
1 some Dr. Kimble not as inno-
cent as he pretends to be?

I A regular meeting of the 1st
Wingham Scout Troop was held
January 12, with 25 Scouts and
three leaders in attendance.
A.S.M. Russell took the open-
ing exercises and A.P.L. Lee
Grove broke the flag. Inspec-
tion was taken by the leaders.
After inspection Scouter Rus-
sell read a report on a hike
which took place Saturday,
January 8th to find a campsite
for the troop.
A,P.L, Grove led a short
game of "Indian Leg Wrestling"
t followed by a 20-minute study
period, during which the boys
were allowed to pass tests.
After a brief troop discussion
and closing ceremonies the
troop was dismissed.
A Court of Honour followed
the meeting.
In the world as a whole,

age one every 15 seconds.
INTERMEDIATES
John Phillips was top bowler
of the week, rolling 301 single
and 4'78 double as his Oaks beat
the Birches 3 to 2, Greg Car-
ter aided the Oaks' attack with
226 single and 396 double. The
Pines put together a balance at-
tack to take all five points from
the Poplars. Jim Henderson led
his Walnuts with 220 single and
3'75 double as they blanked the
Maples. Patsy Walker was top
for the girls with 194 single and
342 double.
JUNIORS
Ian Shepherd had the ball
under fine control and the pins
flying as he rolled 225 single
and 361 double to lead the
league. Ian's lines plus Dave
Balser's 204 single proved too
much for the Habs with the fin-
al result, Leafs 5, Habs O. Top
bowler for the Habs was Paul
Forsyth with 330 double. Doug
Finley rolled a fine 215 single
and 315 double as the Rangers
took 5 points from the Wings.
Gail Irvine of the Wings
continued to top the girls with
high double of 292 while the
girls' high single went to Jean-
ette Riley with 158 single. On
alleys 5 and 6 a real battle of
the pins took place between
the Bruins and Hawks. The
Bruins took the first game by
6 pins and lost the second
PACK A
The regular meeting of
Pack 'A' Cubs was held at the
Scout House with three leaders
and 28 boys present.
Baloo opened the meeting
and Blue Second Doug Vander-
woude led the Grand Howl. Two
Sixers, Doug Mason and Mur-
ray Leggett were presented with
their second stars in a very im-
pressive ceremony. These boys
have worked diligently through-
out their Cubbing days and are
most deserving of their 2nd star,
In Cubs, we say that they now
have "both eyes open". Con-
gratulations boys!
A vigorous 'exercise' game
was then played. This was fol-
lowed by two action songs and
after all this activity the boys
were happy to sit and learn
some more about Cubbing.
All tenderpad Cubs present
passed their various require-
' menus for exercising. The sec-
ond star boys are learning
Morse code under the leader-
ship of Bagheera.
An acting game was played
and thoroughly enjoyed. The
meeting ended with the Grand
Howl, Cub prayer and the sing-
ing of Taps.
It takes a six-inch layer of
moist snow or a 30-inch layer
of dry snow to equal the water
