HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1967-10-05, Page 17Sep activities The great days of vaudeville were brought back to life with the first Bob Hope Special of the year. They were truly the 'good old days' I Many of to- day's finest performers got their first big break in vaudeville, and their popularity will con- tinue much longer than that of today's so-called stars. Bob was his ever-funny self during his monologue and num- bers with his guests. Phyllis Diller shines better in comedy sketches than alone, but she is good anywhere. Jack Jones and Jimmy Durante were in fine voice, and with the star, they provided a few moments of great vaudeville entertainment. To me, the most fabulous act there, even outshining the guests, was the comedy team of Dan Rowan and Dick Martin who gave an old favourite 'charades' routine. Their split-second timing and great teamwork, are the success of their act, and they have never been funnier than they were on Bob's show. I've said it before and I'll say it again, 'Would it ever be great to bring back the days of vaude- ville". Red Star, Blue Star, Green Star, Black Star ard Tat; ,y Star, Keith deserves a great o.al of credit as he worked hard dun the summer to accomplish this goal, This is an example to the other boys; a great deal can be done on your own. The more you put into the organiza- tipn the more you gain. We are happy to welcome seven new leaders, Mr. and Mo.'

Two men were seated in a bus. One of them noticed that his friend had his eyes closed. "What's the matter, Bill?" he asked. "Feeling ill?" "No, I'm all right," answered Bill. "It's just that I hate to see all these ladies standing." e•P•144•41,P0•••••••••Ne4,1•04.4.4••••Y••••••"•••ted, BROWNIE'S DRIVE-IN THEATRE — CLINTON Box Office Opens at 8:00 •5•11•••71/4Z C•1•111••••••• FRIDAY & SATURDAY OCTOBER 6 and 7 — DOUBLE FEATURE — "MADAME X" Showing at 8.30 Only Lana Turner-John Forsythe In Color — Plus "BLINDFOLD" Showing at 10.15 Only Rock Hudson - Claudia Cardinale — In Color Cartoon ▪ AMIN, Sunday hildniite OCTOBER 8 — DOUBLE FEATURE — "DRACULA PRINCE OF DARKNESS" (Adult Entertainment) CHRISTOPHER LEE In Color Plus "Plague Of The Zonibies" (Adult Entertainment) Andra Morelli Color Cartoon Coming Next.

A medical bill. A clothing bill. A car repair bill. They all seemed to come at once. Jack needed money in a hurry. Answer: A Niagara Loan. Jack talked it over with the manager of the nearest Niagara Office. Besides getting the money, he got a lot of good advice on budgeting. With a Niagara Loan, Jack was able to pay all his bills at one time. And repay the loan on easy terms to suit his budget. When you need extra money for any good reason, you can expect the same courteous, quick service at any one of 300 Niagara offices.

There were only five games over 250. Bill Johnston, who didn't have to wait in line at Expo, came up with both the high single and triple coming through with a 318 and 761. Bill Hotchkiss 264, Duane Fen- wick 262, Bob Hurnbey 260, Ian MacLaurin 255. There were two white wash- ings this week and the remain- ing tussle wound up 5-2. Standings after four weeks: Bruins 22, Canadiens 20, Maple Leafs 14, Rangers 13, Black Hawks 9, Red Wings 6. This is just a preview of the National Hockey League standings around Christmas. On Wednesday of last week eight new boys from Cubs were welcomed into Scouts at the annual Coming-Up -ceremony. A. S.M. Ken Henry led a dis- cussion on ducks, with samples of wings and pamphlets to illus- trate his topic. Basketball was enjoyed. A.S.M. Don Rintoul led a sing-song with his guitar. Following the sing-song the boys were told about an over- night campout which was held on Friday, September 29th. The nine boys attending depart- ed from Wingham Public School accompanied by three leaders. Camp was set up on a farm north of Wingham which has been donated for scouting pur- poses. After a strenuous eve- ning of preparation, the fellows enjoyed a singsong around the campfire. Hot chocolate and , some of Mrs. Ken Foxton's , homemade cookies were enjoy- ed by all before hitting the sack (sleeping bags) for the night. The boys rose at seven Sat- urday morning (the leaders rose shortly thereafter). Everyone enjoyed breakfast cooked on an open fire: porridge, fried bolo- gna and eggs, toast and milk -- just like home. During the morning, wood was collected and stored in the farm house basement for future outings. Lunch of grilled cheese sand- wiches cooked on the open fire along with hot chocolate and oranges was a welcome sight at noon. After dinner a clean-up operation was the main activity. Tired but happy boys arrived home late Saturday afternoon. Cold weather didn't seem to dampen their spirits during the week-end. welcomed The first Cub meeting of the year was held on Wednesday in the gymnasium of the public school, in conjunction with the Boy Scouts. This was a Flying- Up ceremony in which the fol- lowing boys were welcomed in- to the Scout Troop: Paul Ben- nett, Randy Elliott, Ricky Hod- gins, Keith Hodgkinson, Brian Pollock, Kerry Sallows, Doug Vanderwoude, Ken Robinson and Bobby Shepperd. Akela presented Doug Van- derwoude with his Red Star and Keith Hodgkinson was awarded all five stars in the Cub course, Another past era of popular- ity was brought back on Mon- day evening when "Show of the Week" presented the Hollywood Musical. This, too, is a thing of the past which is too bad, Rock Hudson was the host of this show, and although he may never make the Metropolitan Opera, he has a better-than- average voice. Connie Stevens is cute as a button and getting more talented every year. No wonder she is packing 'em in every night on Broadway. Bobby Van, who often starred in the old musicals, was back looking very different but certainly dancing as well as ever. An un- known, Michele Lee, was the fourth guest - a gal who can really belt a song and if given the chance, could probably be a fine comedienne, The Hudson-Stevens takeoff on Nelson Eddy and Jeanette. Mc- Donald was an outstanding piece of timing; and although the dancing was weak in much of the show, the opening number was fabulous, and Bobby Van's medley a masterpiece. 0-0-0 On October 10th, the great- est, Barbra Streisand, will star in her own special entitled "Belle of 14th Street". It will be one hour in length, and will recall, again, the days of Am- erican vaudeville, going back to the turn-of-the-century era and all the glamour and humour of that time. Her guest will be Jason Robards, star of Broadway and the movies, and real-life husband of Lauren 13acall, Dane- er John Bubbles will also be a featured performer. On October 25th, we will be taken to Rome, this time to meet a great lady of the movies Sophia Loren, who will star in her own hour-long special "With Love Sophia". That show has been filmed on loca- tion at Miss Loren's home in suburban Rome.. She will take us on a tour of the mansion, and sing some songs. Her guests will be Marcella Iviastroianni, Peter Sellers, and Jonathan Win,- tens.
