Shirley Storey took both the high single for the ladies as well as the high triple with 304 and 676. That's a nice start, Shirley, but you sure are mak- ing it difficult for the rest of us. As for the men, Jim Bain took the "lion's share" with a high single of 323 and high triple of 777, The noisiest teams were on alleys 3 and 4, with two Dots being involved, They must be in a hurry to get the ball rolling.

MEN'S TOWN LEAGUE Walter Brown would like to thank members of the Men's Town League for the gift they presented to him and as Walter says "A most appropriate card." Due to Walter's accident and long convalescence the bowling news has not appeared in the column, so we will give a brief rundown of what took place.

'Tis Show BIZ "...The best musical enter- tainment on TV, ever" One of the best I have ever seen put on by a local station... too good to be confined to New York"... Those were the words of New York television critics Atra Baer and Ben Gross after they watched "The Swinging World of Sammy Davis" on pri- vate station WABC-TV in New York City in February. Turned out everyone else agreed and the show did not remain con- fined to New York. It was dis- tributed to all ABC owned tele- vision stations in the U.S., and last week was seen on our own CBC's "Show of The Week", presenting to our country one of the finest hours of entertain- ment ever shown. He is 'the greatest', without a doubt, and though he has shown more versatility than he did on this particular produc- tion, he was like a ray of sun- shine after a month-long rain! He is still packing 'ern in every night on Broadway in "Golden Boy", and two of his guests were co-stars from the show. Billy Daniels will always be a top performer; Lola Falana is promising but should stick to dancing, where she shines brighter than in the voice de- partment. Here again, though I could not have enjoyed this hour more, is the reason why our Canadian stars are leaving for greener pastures. Upcoming 'Shows of the Week'? - Steve Lawrence, Harry Belafonte, Hank Snow, Perry Como - all great stars but where are the native sons of our Canadian -produced series? They could be great, if they were given half a chance. 0--0--0 We are privileged to have the Bob Hope Chrysler Theatre joining us this year. 0--0--0 Speaking of Canadians mak- ing good, which I was last col- umn, Stratford has now closed and its stars are moving on. One of our top actresses, Kate Reid, is really stepping up the ladder, heading for Hollywood and a starring role in the movie ver- sion of Tennessee Williams' hit By Vonni Lee play "This Property Is Con- demned". She will play the part of Natalie Wood's mother in the picture, which also stars Broadway star Robert Redford. Filming will last for ten weeks, after which she returns to New York for roles in two other Wil- liams plays, "The Glass Men- agerie" and "Streetcar Named Desire". In London, England, Toby Robins is winning recognition after opening in a West End play produced by her husband, Bill Freedman. Her reviews were comparably promising, which could mean that her de- sire to be recognized as an ac- tress may be realized. We hope so; she's a nice kid and too talented to be called just a 'pretty face'. Also sticking close to Strat- ford, its director for ten years Michael Langham, is now in San Diego where he is consult- ant on a new theatre project be- ing undertaken, expected to be completed by 1968. He will also be the first director to stage a play there. He is the man responsible for much of Stratford's success in past years. Before we leave Stratford it might be nice to mention the Festival's new publicity direc- tor, John Patterson, and to pay tribute to Jack Karr, who now takes a similar job at the O'- Keefe Centre. As Frances Hy- land so aptly put it on the night he left, "We're going to miss him." And in addition to the many friends he left behind, his willing assistance, efficien- cy and promptness will also be hard to equal, May he have nothing but the best of luck in his new .undertaking!
