BOX 411 DUItHAMI, CNT, News Items from Fordwich It is always a step forward for Canadian stars when they appear on a nation-wide tele- vision production in the United States,, particularly so when the show's star is someone as pop,- lar as Ed Sullivan, Dean Mar- tin, or Perry Como. Perry really shot the Canad- ians to the top in his 'tribute to Expo and Canada', seen last week on 'Show of the Week', His show starred jazz pianist Oscar Peterson, a Canadian; French-Canadian singer Mon- ique Leyrac, who is being hail- ed as our country's find of the decade; and members of the Young Canada Singers. Peter- son has played in the U.S. for some years and has made ap- pearances on U.S. television shows devoted to jazz, Miss Leyrac has been playing in some American clubs and this has helped her popularity, but clubs don't exactly turn the trick, as does television seen from the Atlantic to the Pacif- ic. The Young Canada Singers will ring a bell with you as be- ing singers of the famous Bobby Gimby tune "Can-a-da". They are, in real life, his own Great Ontario Adventure Vacations Sainte-Marie among the Hurons, at Midland Champlain Country On a Champlain Country Ad- venture Vacation, you and your family gain firsthand histori- val insights, in a setting of natural splendour. From the Ottawa River to island-sprinkled Georgian Bay, you follow where intrepid Samuel de Champlain explored, more than three centuries ago. Inspect the Officers' Quarters Museum at Penetangui- shene. Browse around Orillia's Leacock Memorial Home. See the awesome Bonnechere Caves. For camping, canoeing, fishing—or making friends with wildlife—you have 3000 square miles of unspoiled wilder. ness in Algonquin Park alone. Among the Muskoka Lakes, Kawarthas and sylvan Haliburton, are dozens of luxurious modern resorts. You'll find a Champlain Country Adventure Vacation richly rewarding for every member of your family.

They won many hearts but their ap- pearances were kept to a mini- mum, probably because school and studies have a way of gum- min' things up when you want to be a star, Now they're back, and "Can-a-da" may make them more famous than they ever were. Separately, they are Ken 13, Tom 11, Tim 8, Philip 5, and Bonnie, the only gal in the group, who is 11. Philip was the little charmer who got all the good lines on Perry's show. This production did not seem to be as well re- hearsed as most of Perry's ef- forts; their Canada dance se- quence lacked spirit and precis- ion. But nothing would upset Perry; he's always at ease, and he can put the most tense view- er at ease as well. 0-0-0 The second biggest variety show of the week (correction, it was even greater than Per's ef- fort) was "Hello, Delhil", the name tag placed on the touring show 'Canada Entertains' that entertained Canadian troops around the world earlier this year. It was seen on Wednes- day evening at 8.30, and a fine hour it was. It reminded one of the Bob Hope Christmas shows for the GIs, and it could well compete with any one of them for its content, its display of talent, and the excellent cam- era work throughout. The production showed high- lights of the tour to Sardinia, Ghana, Tanzania, India, Pakis- tan, Cyprus, and Germany. It was more than merely a show of songs, dances, and laughs; we saw scenes from Ghana, Sar- dinia, India, etc., with fabu- lous pictures taken in the'Afri- can wild country. Entertainers were presented at their best, when they were on stage throwing heart and soul into their performances; and when they felt their worst, while on board plane travelling to the next place, after a tong tiring day at the place before. Tom- my Hunter, Al Cherny, the Rhythm Pals, a French-Canad- ian folk-singing group, Les Cailloux, magician Bob Down- ey, and of course Gordie Tapp, who emceed the shows and gave the commentary in this produc- tion, are many of them, old- timers to this game. The gals were the Lounsbury baton-twirling sisters, the sing- ing Allan Sisters who are capa- ble of singing much more har- mony than they do; Michele Richard, who isn't exactly my type of entertainer, if you can call her that; and Daniele Dor- ice, It wasn't hard to see why she was a show-stopper! She has real charm and a fine tal- ent, and knows how to make an audience enjoy her efforts. Pet- er Kelly was the hand behind production and direction, and he deserves the mention. The whole gang should be congrat- ulated on a great effort; a Cen- tennial project that has made our country much more memor- able in the minds of the boys overseas. " Only ladies use that," said the little girl as she took the powder-puff from her small bro- ther. "Gentlemen wash them- selves." geb activities The regular Cub meeting was held in the gymnasium of Wingham United Church with a great many boys earning badges as follows: Toymaker, Brian Shaunessy, Jimmie Ritter, Earl Thompson, Richard Harcourt and David Reid; Reader, Bobbie and Rickie Williams; Green and Bronze swimmer badges award- ed to Peter Hilbert; Artist, Jim- mie Ritter; team player, Jeff Croskill; Musician, David Reid after he played an accordion solo and Jimmie Ritter after he played several pieces on his electric guitar. The boys were instructed on the rules of Cub Camp to be held at Goderich Summer School on June 2 to 4. Every- one is looking forward to an en- joyable week-end with good weather.
