(Review week Feb. 26 -Mar. 4) Have you ever wondered what has happened to Vaughn Meader? I must admit that af- ter hearing of President Ken- nedy's death last November, among my first thoughts was, "What happens to VaughnMead- er now?" He was the young man from Massachusetts who not only sounded like the late. President, but also even looked enough like the Kennedys to be a part of the family. He made his debut on a nation-wide tele- vision talent show in the sum- mer of 1962 and did an imita- tion of the then -President. He was a big hit, and that's put- ting it mildly. Next, a record which dealt with life in the White House from a comed- ian's point of view, was re- leased. It was called, as you no doubt recall, "First Family", and sold close to one million copies in a few weeks, and eventually sold more than three million. Vaughn Meader was riding at the top of the success bandwagon. Naturally, though, after the death of their belov- ed President, the American people no longer wanted to hear imitations, especially his kind, and he was left without a career. His records were tak- en off the shelves, and night- clubs where he had beensched- uled to appear, immediately cancelled his bookings. It seemed for awhile that the tal- ented young comedian was doomed, and this would have WI SHOWPLACEZirentIMI NGHAM OF PHONE 357-1630 THUR.-FRI: SAT.

It's a well made, at- tention getting film, with great production, unusual settings, startling colour and cos- tumes, Ser it for sure. Due to the length of this picture there will b only one showing each night starting at 8:00 p.m. been an unfortunate incident which could happen to any number of performers who identify themselves too strongly with imitations of only one or two famous people. However, in early January, Meader, de- termined never to give up, bounced back and made his sec- ond debut, this time as a folk singer and general comedian. His response was tremendous, perhaps not as excited as his first time around, but never- theless promising, and proof that he wouldn't have to col- lect garbage to earn a living. He is trying to build another career now, and succeeding, mainly because this time he is going to mace it on Vaughn Meader's talent alone, not someone else's. I'm glad to see him back in the running and I hope we have a chance to see his new act soon. Midst a squall of snow, an audience dripping in mink and diamonds, and thousands of nec,es craning to see Elizabeth Taylor, the long-awaited "Hamlet" opened in Toronto's O'Keefe Centre last week. This is the play that has stirred Tor- onto more than any other in the O'Kcefe's history, because it brought Richard Burton and his fair, Miss Taylor, to Can- ada. Burton plays the title role in the Shakespearean tragedy, but I'm not sure Shakespeare would recognize it for it is done in modern-day apparel and uses present-day language. The play is under the direction of Sir John Gielguel, and also stars Eilleen tierlie and Hume Cronyn. Thouth I do not doubt Burton's talent, it is hard to imagine Shakespeare's fine dialogue being smothered in to- day's 'lingo', and I can't quite picture Ilamlrt in a turtleneck sweater and blue denims, Critics who saw the opening performance were divided in their opinions of the star. One said he was 'magnificent', and gave a performance second only "to that ill Sir Laurence Olivier in 'Becket" a few years ago, or Sir Alec Guinness in 'Dylan' last ball". Two others also praised his performance, but old standht Nathan Cohen who can alwav> be counted on for a bad review, carne through with more than a few unkind words. I lain let, 13urton, and 'Taylor head for New York af- ter four we'.' s Isere, and the play opens on Broadway on April 2nd. It has been said that a play must have 100% critical acclaimed if it is to break through the tough line of Broad- way critics, but I have no doubts that Cohen's review will be ignored, and Burton will have a hit on his hands. 0--0--0 Each one of us should have felt proud when Ed Sullivan in- troduced the Lounsbury Sisters to his audience on last Sunday evening's show. The baton - twirling sisters, Barbara and Joan, are from Si. Catharines, Ontario, and they seem like old friends to many of us, since both have made personal ap- pearances in Wingham, though not together. Barbara, the old- er of the two, was married and semi -retired when a few years ago they decided, just for laughs, to try a night-club routine. Their work up to that time had been leading parades, training majorettes, and the like. They made the night- club debut with their new act and were such a smash that they've hardly had tin to even think of retirement since. They have made tours throughout the world, played clubs all over North•America, and now they are breaking into television. No arguing the fact that they are talented, beautiful, and loaded with personality; they could go a long way. So cheer up, all you majorettes; your strutting may someday get you onto the Ed Sullivan Show! Rec. Association Euchre Party BLUEVALE--Eleven tables were in play in the community hall when the Bluevale Recre- ational Association sponsored their fortnightly party on Thurs- day evening. Prize winners were high lady, Mrs. Mel Craig; high man, Jack Brewer; low score, Mrs. Kenny McNaughton and Keith Moffatt; specials, R. J. Mc- Murray, playing as a lady and Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Thomas, the date being nearest to their wedding anniversary. The committee in charge was Nit, and Mrs. harry Elliott, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Brewer, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Moffatt. A visitor to New Mexico was talking to a sun -browned native, i tit • lack and commented on c c,, of a d ra in. "Doesn't it ever rain here?"" he asked. The nativc thought a mo- ment and said, "Mister. do you remember the story of Noah and the Ark, and how it rained 4u days and .Jn nights;" "Sure I do," said the tourist. "Well," drawled the native, "we got a half-inch that time." SKATING CARNIVAL Wingham Arena - Sat. Night Auspices Wingham Figure Skating Club Bridge Results N. & S.: 1. Mrs, J. R.

"Well, sir, since the Scots found out every cloud has a silver lining, we just can't keep them out."
