CANADIAN NATIONAL 4G •65 The stomping, cheering and hollering when Liz Taylor was announced as winner of this year's Oscar for Best Actress came from my corner, in ease you didn't know! Sure, so she was born in Britain! But she has been associated with Hollywood and its pictures for so many years that she no longer seems 'foreign' to America. For this reason, it was great to see her win, not to mention the fact that she certainly deserved the honor for the performance she gave in the demanding role of Martha in "Who's Afraid of Vir- ginia Woolf?". She defeated four actresses from other coun- tries - Vanessa and Lynn Red- grave from England; Anouk Ai- mee from France; and Poland's Ida Kaminska, all of whom were in the audience at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. Liz was not there (she is making a movie in France), but her award was accepted by another great performer and former Oscar win- ner, Anne Bancroft. Her partner in the picture, Sandy Dennis, also won as best supporting actress, The men, however, though both nominat- ed, were not as fortunate. Rich- ard Burton lost out in the best actor category to another Eng- lish star, Paul Scofield for his role in "A Man for All Seasons", a top movie which took six awards in all, one of them the honors for "Best Picture of 1966". Scofield's other competitors were Alan Arkin, Michael Caine and one lone American, Steve McQueen. He, like Miss Tay- lor, was not present but his co- :star in the picture, Wendy Hil- ler, accepted the award on his behalf. In the supporting actor Lategory an American (*what o You know about that?) star, Wal- ter Matthau took the honors, which wasn't too much of a sur- prise to anyone; his top role was in "The Fortune Cookie". In the Best Picture class, "Man for All Seasons" edged out "The Sand Pebbles", "Virginia Woolf", "Alfie", and "The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Corn- ing". Five awards went to "Vir- ginia Woolf", among them cos- tuming awards, art direction, and cinematography. Its young genius director Mike Nichols lost to Fred Zinneman of "Man for All Seasons", but Mike got to hold Oscar for a minute when he accepted Sandy Dennis'. Other '66 movies that took hon- ors were "Grand Prix", "Fan- tastic Voyage", and France's "A Man and A Woman". Music awards went to "Born Free", and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum", with the title song from "Born Free" being named best song, and rightly so. It never sounded better, as performed by Roger Williams and The Young Ameri- cans. The other highlight in the song department was pert Mitzi Gaynor's rendition of "Georgy Girl", which deserved the ovation it received. No doubt everyone was glad to see Mitzi and her marvellous talent back! Bob Hope, as M.C., was never funnier, getting in his topical little cracks about the American TV strike, the del- uge of foreigners, and adult movies and the fact that he never wins an Oscar, and de- lighting in the fact that the California Governor, Ronald Reagen was seated in the audi- looks like just a two-team race for playoff trophies. Please fel- lows. n o ties this time. Some of the better games rolled Monday night were: Bill Hotchkiss (alias Headpiny 265; Ted English 287 and a 703 tri- ple; Wayne Brown 254; Ken Saxton Jr. 261, and a 747 tri- ple; Matt Boyd 269 and a 730 triple; Gary Storey 308; Gary Teti-Tiernan 288; Bill Brown 268; Ian Maclaurin 258 and a 747 triple; Joe Desmarais 280, 325 and a sparkling 810 triple; Jim Bain 215; and Mac Ritchie 254 and a 716 triple.

With one week left it Strikes & Spares ence. The gals were dressed to the teeth, in chiffon baby tents, diamond sheaths and brocade ensembles. Julie Christie, last year's winner and a typical non- conformist, came prancing on stage in a mini-mini-dress to present the best actor award. The biggest disappointment to me was the fact that there was no honor for one responsi- ble for many of the finest mo- tion pictures ever made -- Walt Disney, who has passed away since the last Oscarcast. How could they have forgotten to pay tribute to his memory? All that reminded us of him was the small film clip of his award- winning song "When You Wish Upon a Star". Perhaps their negligence here could be forgiven, when you consider that they did in- vite back Patricia Neal, And this was the most moving wel,- come we have ever witnessed - as the audience rose to its feet and gave her an ovation as has never before been heard iTII-Joi- lywood, The steps and the speech still do not come with- out effort, following the series of strokes that two years ago left her without speech,, unable to walk or see, and with a mind that could neither remember or comprehend anything. She isa walking, talking miracle - the living meaning of the word 'courage', and her Hollywood eo-horts paid her tribute for this.
