. 210 were on parade for high
school annual cadet inspection
The Wingham District High
School Cadet Corps No. 543
the reviewing officer's congrat-
ulations as did the directingof-
fiCer at the school.
He said there are two main
reasons for having cadets, the
first being that the training
gives young men an opportunity
to become accustomed to disci-
pline which is important in lat-
er years, as all must be able to
work under the direction of oth-
ers. Lt. Col. Hetherington
said the second reason is surviv-
al in the case of war, He said
the young men are not trained
so much to wage warfare as they
are to survive in case of emer-
gency.
While the nasty weather of
Monday kept officers wondering
if the inspection would have to
be moved to the arena, rain
held off and the inspection took
place outside at the school
grounds.
After the color party and in-
specting party had arrived Cdt.
Lt. Col. P. Tiffin led his troops
in a general salute, which was
followed by the inspection of
the ranks by the officers, a
march past in column of route,
advance in review order, gen-
eral salute, the march off of
the flags and another general
salute.
The cadets put on several
demonstrations. Highlight was
a demonstration of fieldcraft
and camouflage. A number of
cadets had been hiding around
the edge of the field, and on
command started to fire blanks
from their rifles. They had to
be told to stand up before most
of them could be located by the
audience which was on hand for
the inspection. This was fol-
lowed by a weapons demonstra-
tion which included bren guns,
submachine guns, rocket launch-
ers and hand grenades.
Other highlights were the
demonstration by the precision
drill squad and musical numbers
by the bugle band.
Lt. M. D. Maher, inspect-
ing officer from district head-
quarters, London, presented
Strathcona Trust efficiency
crests to the following cadets:
Capt. Michael Forsyth, Capt.
Kevin Fisher, Maj. Douglas El-
liott, Lt. Peter Callan, Maj.
Douglas Wheeler, Maj. Brian

Capt. Newton Richardson, Maj.

Callan, Capt. Jamie Douglas,
drew acclaim from Lt„ Col.
R. S. Hetherington, the review-
ing officer, at the annual in-
spection on Monday evening.
He said the corps gets better and
larger each year. The dress
was excellent and the demon-
strations were well done. All
officers in the corps received

Entertainment stars made
news across the border. In Cal-
ifornia actor Frank Overton,
who has had so many roles in
movies and on television, pass-
ed away at his home. And ac-
tor Tom Conway, who gained
fame as Inspector Mark Sabre
of "The Falcon" movie and TV
series, passed away in hospital
at the age of 63. The star of
nearly 300 movies and a num-
ber of radio and television
shows, he was the brother of
actor George Sanders.

And news that ten years ago
would have caused more uproar
than the blowup of the entire
world, was greeted calmly last
week. Rock and roll star and
now top movie star, in every
sense of the word, Elvis Presley
married Priscilla Beaulieu in
Las Vegas, Nevada. Few knew
about it until it was over, which
is the way Elvis would want it.
He has always been very secre-
tive about his private life,
which could make him the most
successful and happiest person
in Hollywood. He met his
bride when he was in the army
eight years ago in Germany.
She was an army officer's
daughter, and a mere 13. He
was a teen-age idol and he au-
tographed her arm, like he did
hundreds of other gals. I sup-
pose she can wash her arm now;
she no longer needs the auto-
graph, she has Elvis! This is
the first marriage for both; and
we all wish Elvis the best. Real-
ly, I think that lad could suc-
ceed at anything!

he can do an equally fine show-
ing of American political fig-
ures. And he received a great
deal of applause for his efforts.
This guy is about the greatest
impressionist ever to come
along; and I'm not just saying
that because he's Canadian --
although that fact should sure
do something for our Canadian
ego!
I said 'two' top acts at the
beginning because it would have
taken some doing to beat Mel-
ina Mercouri. She is simply
great in her role in "Ilya Dar-
ling", the musical that is based
on her starring "Never on Sun-
day" movie of a few years ago.
It is now lighting Broadway; not
that the play is that great but
she is fabulous. She learned to
sing and dance for this produc-
tion and really throws heart and
soul into it. She was nominat-
ed for an Oscar for her role in
'Sunday'; watch for her to take
the Broadway Tony next year!
If she was great on Sunday
evening, another Broadway star,
Zero Mostel, was a little less
than that on Monday's "Show of
the Week". He has a fine
enough voice if he would sing
seriously, and will do anything
for a laugh. But his material
on this show was weak, the
play-audience and Jimmy Dur-
ante sketches particularly. He
was great in "Fiddler on the
Roof", and his closing act, show
.ing scenes from that play and
singing the songs from it, was
definitely the highlight. But
personally, one hour of Zero is
just too much!

It should have made us Can-
adians feel very proud indeed to
know that one of the two top
acts on Ed Sullivan's hour on
Sunday evening, the 30th, was
our own native son Rich Little.
Our Ottawa-born boy did a tre-
mendous job of every imitation
he attempted. He can jump
from one to another as though
he were 500 persons in one and
every one is nothing short of
great.
When he is on Canadian tel-
evision, his impressions are of
Canadian people -- particular-
ly the political figures. When
he moves south of the border,
Capt. Paul Guest, Capt. John
Haasnoot, W 01 Allan Leggatt,
Maj. Tom Miller, WO2 John
Perrott, Sgt. Mac Ross.
The award for best officer,
presented by Col. Hetherington,
went to Cdt. WO1 Allan Leg-
gatt. Best dressed cadet on par-
ade was Cdt. Neil Hemming-
way who received his award
from Mayor DeWitt Miller.The
99th Battery trophy for the best
shot in the corps was presented
to Cdt. Tom Black by OC of
the Battery, Major J. L. B.
Melanson.
Mayor Miller also addressed
the cadets briefly and said the
community was proud of the
corps and that it has played an
important part in the school.
He said he hopes the cadet
corps will continue for many
years.
The inspecting party was
comprised of reviewing officer
Hetherington, inspecting offi-
cer Lt. M. D. Maher of Lon-
don, Mayor Miller, R. S. Mac-
Rae, board chairman of the
school, Major Melanson, F. E.
Madill, school principal and

structor.
