There was also a large number of parents on hand to see their sons presented with awards. The meeting opened with the Grand Howl taken by Ake - la Murray Fridenburg. First stars were awarded to Keith Hodgkinson, Billy Kennedy, Steven Maxwell, Richard Lloyd, Paul Bennett and Brian Gordon. Terry Reid and Ron Orien re- ceived Second stars. The boys were congratulated by the leaders Murray Friden- burg, Louise Lloyd and Don Rintoul for their excellent work during the year. The Blue Six was presented with the pennant for the best overall record. Cub Tommy Lee was pre- sented with the Proficiency Shield by David Crothers, of the Wingham Volunteer Fire Department. This Shield is awarded annually to the Cub having attained the best over- all record in Cubbing activi- ties. Cub Doug Mason was pre- sented with a blazer crest by Baloo for being the runner-up. An exercise game was play- ed, in which the Cubs and pa- rents participated. The num- ber two team won but the game was enjoyed by all, even the losers. The trip to Goderich on Saturday, June 26, will include only the winners of the profi- ciency shield, the runner-up and the Blue Six. Cubs in the Blue Six are Doug Mason, Ron Orien, Dean Ewing, Doug Van- derwoude and Charles Bondi. These boys will meet at the Stout House in full uniform on Saturday morning at 9.30 and will take their bathing suits, lunch and a small amount of money. The boys will be re- turning home by suppertime. The Soapbox Derby will be held on Tuesday, June 29, at 2.00 p.m. on Carling Terrace. The Cub camp will be held at Camp Martyn, July 23, 24 and 25. Further information will be forthcoming by Pony Express. The leaders wish to take this opportunity to thank the parents, as well as the citizens of the Town of Wingham for their co-operation in all Cub- bing activities during the past season, A special thanks it ex- tended to the Wingham Ad- vance-Titnes for their excel- lent co-operating in all Scout- ing activities. TUESDAY WAS A BIG night for the members of Cub Pack A, when closing ceremonies were attended by the boys' parents and awards were presented for proficiency throughout the year. The Pack is seen in this photo with three of the leaders at the rear: Asst. Cub Leader Don Rintoul; Asst. Leader Mrs. Don Lloyd and Cub Lead- er Murray Fridenburg. Peter Sellers, lucky joker that he is, is looking better than ever after his big fight and near loss with death last year in Hollywood. He was inter- viewed on last week's "Tele- scope" by host Fletcher Markle's good friend Bernie Braden, a native Canadian now living and working in London. Sellers is a marvellous typically -English comedian; in fact, he was no- minated for an Academy Award this year for his perfor- mance in "Dr. Strangelove" or "How I Learned To Stop Wor- rying and Love The Bomb". He lost out to Rex Harrison, of course, but even a nomination is rare for a comedy actor. Jack Lemmon is about the only American who can give a com- edy performance worthy of Academy recognition. The scenes from Sellers' movies were very entertaining, espe- cially the 'Fred Kite' scene. But then he can make any scene a masterpiece with his perfect comedy timing. He was born in England in 1925, and became a star there, in London's famous Windmill Theatre, at the Palladium, with the Goon Show on radio, and was in demand for Royal Command Performances, He made his film debut in 1955, and has been going strong ever since. 1 -le was in Hollywood for "Kiss Me, Stupid" when his near -fatal heart attack struck last year. He shouldn't worry about having to surrender his role to Ray Walston, though; the picture stunk and could have done real harm to his ca- reer. He and his gorgeous blond wife Britt returned to England in the fall and in January, be- came parents of their first child, a daughter. It will be awhile before they're back in North America; they made no secrets about their dislike for Hollywood. No doubt his work will now be limited to Europ- can -made pictures. 0--0--0 Lyon Messer's new little star, Catherine McKinnon and her sister Patricia, who guested on last week's "Jubilee", must —Advance -Times Photo. Tis Show Biz By Vonni Leo only know one song. I realize that they had received requests to sing "Dominique" and they do it well, but I'd like to hear them sing something different for a change. Cathy is 21, she likes the Beatles, crazy clothes, and zany sunglasses, among other things. Pat is 16, she sang on "Singalong Jubilee" last sum- mer, and found herself starring on the CBC teen show "Music Hop" when it originates in Halifax. Actually, their duet - singing career began here in Ontario, in London, where they lived while their father, who was a sergeant in the Canadian Army Medical Corps, was in Korea. They sang "Sisters" on The Lloyd Wright Show on tele- vision, when Cathy was only 12. Last fall, she became a regular with Don Messer, and since then has recorded an al- bum and a single. This summer she will be back on "Singalong Jubilee" as a regular and be a part of her first summer tour with Don and the gang. You heard from the "Country Hoe- down" gang where their summer tour will take them; perhaps you are interested about the Messer gang. On June 26th, they embark on a 26 -day tour of cities and towns in Mani- toba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia, They will make two stops in Ontario, in Fort William on June 26 and at Kenora on July 23. They will do one show a day, except for three Sundays which will be free. The group will include Don and the band, Charlie Chamberlain, Marg Osborne, Catherine McKinnon, The Buchta Dancers with Gunther Buchta and wife Irma, and dancer Joe Wallin, 0--0--0 Radio and television high- lights this week -end will be coverage of the Queen Mother's visit in Canada, On Saturday (26th) on CBC -TV, she will present new colors to the Tor- onto Scottish Regiment and the Queen's guineas to the owner of the winner of the Queen's Plate, Wingham Advance-Tiines, Thursday, June 24, 1905 -page 7 BELL LINES by K, R. Witherden your Telephone manager Birds - Cigarettes - Fire An interesting speculation as to the cause of a recent fire in Cowansville, Quebec, has been passed along to me by a telephone man on the scene during and after the blaze, which gutted a 150 -year-old home formerly known as a 'halfway house" on the way from Montreal to the US, border, Starlings are suspected of carrying a lighted cigarette butt to their nest in the wooden shed at the rear of the house. This cannot be proven in this particular case, of course, because the nests were destroyed as well. in other in- stances, however, cigarette butts HAVE BEEN FOUND in with the nesting materials collected by these birds, and it is ,highly possible that a still -smouldering cigarette could be picked up as well. Though starlings are perhaps not so prevalent in Ca- nada as south of the border, local :r ire Chief James Carr says that the birds (black with yellow beaks—they took like small crows) do represent a hazard, and should be prevented from nesting in roof jets (eaves) or cavities, He also adds that this is another good reason why smokers should always be very careful to tthoroughly crush out their cigarettes no matter where they are, before disposing of them. s s r Making a Long Distance Short A friend of mine, returning from a family vacation out West this spring, is totally convinced of the wisdom of phoning ahead for reservations along the route. He says the longest distance they travelled was not along the highway at all—it was the frustrating distance from motel to hotel to motel looking for a place to stay the first night out. The shortest distance was after 'he called to the next stop -over city for reservations, and knew that comfortable quarters were waiting for them, For Drivers and Young Scholars It's that time of year again to remind Winghem drivers that energetic youngsters will soon be out of school and playing wherever their fancy takes them. Of course we can and do tell them over and over to watch out for cars and not to play Where it's dangerous. But we'd all feel better if we knew that drivers were making a special point to watch out for them, too. Incidentally, the Bell practice of making a "circle of safety" around a parked vehicle before starting up not only serves to ferret out imprudent youngsters or pets from be- neath a car or truck --it is also an ideal way for a driver to constantly remind himself of his continuing responsi- bility for safety. And what better time to be reminded than just before getting Into the car? Schools for Sale THE FOLLOWING SCHOOLS WILL BE SOLD ON Saturday, July 3rd, 1965 STARTING AT 1 O'CLOCK, A.S.T.
