In his re- port the director said Mrs. Gib- son of Listowel was present to give instruction at last week's • puppetry classes which gave the program considerable im- petus. 0--0--0 On Monday evening the Filth Council met in the li- brary. The recreation director, was invited to sit in on the meeting, the first to be held in almost a year. This re -organi- zation meeting was attended by Lloyd Casemore, president; Mrs. A. Harcourt, Mrs. R. Wormworth, the recreation dir- } ector and Robert Taylor, repre- sentative of the National Film Board. Mrs. Wormworth was appointed secretary -treasurer.

In Wingham these are available through the library for $3,00 per evening for films, screen and projector. A yearly mem- bership of $10.00 makes these facilities available at anytime. Church groups, schools and or- ganizations benefit particularly from this service of educational and entertaining films, al- though individual families can also derive enjoyment of an evening's films at home for very little cost. It is felt that more people would make use of the facili- ties if they were aware they are available. , Little mention has been made of the service in the past couple of years. 0--0--0 Arena management regrets interruptions in the skating pro- gram during the last week or ten days. Due to a faulty cir- cuit breaker in the main elec- trical panel the compressor did not cut out and the brine froze. Refrigeration equipment had to be shut down for three days and it was felt the entire system should be checked while the engineer was here. The need for other repairs was found which necessitated further shut- down.

Isn't that right, Lois? Or perhaps it was that good old Mountain Dew! Sorry to hear that Anne Ged- des won't be with us until the New Year, and are pleased to know that we can rely on Jan- ette Scott to fill in for Anne during that time. Thanks to Fred Pepper, Bill Johnston, Bruce Machan, Hartley Watson and Vicki Wild for helping us out tonight. Dorothy Bain, who is prob- ably tired of being outdone by Wee Jamie, came up with the high single of 278 and a very nice high triple of 768. Atta girl, Dot. Gary Storey came up with the men's high single of 308 and Norman Cameron had the high triple of 684. Nice bowling, boys. Team standings: Stampeders 57; Rough Riders 35; Argonauts 34; Blue Bombers 29; Alouettes 23; Ti -Cats 23. And last, but not least, al- though George Cameron was un- able to bowl with us tonight due to that old debbil flu, (and in- cidentally, disappointed both Hilda and Ruth who were all ready to sing to him) a very happy birthday from the Lea- guers. 0--0--0 WEDNESDAY NIGHT MIXED LEAGUE Bob Angus bowled a 311 for the men's high single last Wed- nesday, and also picked up the high triple with 744. For the women, Betty Lee was right in form again, taking the high single with 261 and Joyce Gaunt got the triple with 587. The Corvairs and Comets are still tied in first place with 41; T -Birds 36; Pontiacs 34; Buicks 33 and Fiats 25.

There would be the two. greatest performers in the world, putting heart and soul into what they do best - entertaining their audience. Ah, well, it's nice to dream!' If you can't have the best two, next best thing is one of them and another of the world's great est. And we did come in on that on last Monday's "Show of the Week", in a live show pre- sented at the O'Keefe. It star- red Belafonte in a rare televis- ion appearance in a show video- taped before an audience of 4, 000 earlier this year at the O'Keefe Centre. With him , were folk -blues singers Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, the Belafonte Singers, and an in- strumental group under the dir- ection of Howard Roberts. His special guest was a young Greek girl whom he introduced, Nana Mouskouri. Producer -director Paddy Sampson who worked with Bela fonte on this produc- tion, described him as 'one of , the most pleasurable artists I've ever worked with'. The show was done in two halves. Much of the non -sing- ing portion was filmed after he had just finished an evening per- formance; his opening number was sung as he strolled through the O'Keefe halls and into the auditorium, which earlier had been filled to capacity with cheering fans. As he sat in the darkness, reliving the evening's performance, each number was flashed to the screen as it had been performed earlier. Every- thing he does is great, of course, but no one can sing "Jamaica Farewell" and the beautiful "Shenandoah" like Belafonte. Harry Belafonte was born March 1, 1927, in New York City. Soon after, though, his West India'. parents returned to their Caribbean home and it was there that he first develop- ed his love for the music and dance of the islands. He be- By Vonni Lee gan his career in the theatre, first as a member of the stage crew, than as an actor. But thinking the acting business didn't promise a Negro much of a future, he wrote a song and began accepting singing en- gagements. His singing has always been for theatre audiences. Very few shows have been done for tele- vision, which made this pro- duction an even greater ac- complishment. What few shows have been presented on TV have won him an Emmy Award, two Emmy nominations, a Syl- vania Award, and TV critics' awards. He has appeared in five movies, proving his talent as a dramatic actor. He has often sponsored new acts com- ing to America, and is active in the campaign for civil rights. In 1961, he was named to the Peace Corps by the late Presi- dent Kennedy, a position he still holds in the U.S. Last winter Belafonte intro- duced a brilliant new perform- er to North America, and since that time she has become one of the most talked -about, one of the greatest entertainers in the world. Born in Athens, Nana Mouskouri began as an opera singer, later became in- terested in jazz and folk music. She made her first public ap- pearance in 1958. Now only27, she is known all over the world for her ability to sing, without an accent, in the native tongue of almost every country. She has a beautiful voice with rich vibrant quality, a tremendous range, and sweetness like the tinkle of a bell. She has toured with Bela fonte, and they have just recorded a duet album. 0--0--0 It was both shocking and sad to hear of the death of newspa- per columnist and television panelist Dorothy Kilgallen at her home in New York. Miss Kilgallen, who was 52 years of age, was found dead in bed last week, just the morning after she had appeared on CBS -TV's "What's My Line?". Cause of Junior Leagues Active The local lanes are just jumping with activity each Sat- urday morning. In the Bantam League, Lar- ry Simmons with high single 160 and high double 247 led the Greens to a clean sweep over the Blues. Julia Foxton aided the Greens'cause by bowl- ing girl's high single 134 and high double 201. Brad Simmons rolled 119 game and Jay Mac - Lauren 103 single in a losing cause for the Blues. The Whites swept both games from the Reds paced by David Tiffin with 179 double and Dale Walden's 92 single and Lois McLaughin's 98 single. 0--0--0• In the Junior League, Barry Gardner rolled a fine 245 sin- gle in a losing cause as the Leafs bowed to the Hawks 3 to 2, Mike Walden paced the Hawks with a 189 single. The Bruins jumped to the top of the league by shutting out the Wings 5 to 0 paced by Lloyd Fridenburg with games of 153 and 184 and Bill Brown with games of 157 and 139. Gail Ir- win rolled a fine single of 157 in a losing cause. The Can- adians and Rangers had a real battle with Canadians emerg- ing the Victors 3 to 2. Paul For- syth led the Canadians with games of 145 and 136. Doug Thompson led the Rangers' at- tack with a 158 single. In the Intermediate League Jim Henderson sure had the pins flying with games of 287 and 188 as his Walnuts downed the Pines 3 to 2. Ricky Gard- ner also helped in the victory, bowling games of 180 and 172. The Oaks edged the Poplars 3 to 2 paced by Robert Arm- strong's 207. Donald Collar had two good games both 205 for the Poplars -- (good steady bowling, Don). After two games the Maples and Birches ended with identical pinfall. Barb Dauphin led the Maples with the girls' high double of 336 while Patti King rolled the girls' high single of 193 for the Birches.

Dorothy Kilgallen wrote a syndicated column in U.S. newspapers. probably one of the most widely -read columns in the country, 'The Voice of Broadway', There were many people who did not call her friend, mainly because she printed what she believed and she wrote what she knew to be true, and often, truth hurts. No doubt, it was this quality that won her not only a few ene- mies, but also a large number of friends and the respect of everyone who admired her in- tegrity and drive. She was the daughter of an equally well- known and fine newspaper writer, Jimmy Kilgallen, and is also survived by her husband, producer Dick Kollmar, two sons, and one daughter. 0--0--0 It finally happened in Las Vegas.

The 28 -year-old Herron has been her travelling companion for sometime now. Last year, on a trip around the world, he announced that they had wed in Hong Kong. She later de- nied it, mainly because she still had a husband (Sid Luft) back home. This is his first merger; she has been married three times before. Let's hope he can straighten out the much - confused gal. Bridge Club The Howell system was used last week. Winners were, first, Mrs. R. H. Lloyd and C. Ilodgins; second, Mrs. H. Fisher and A. R.
