When did Niagara come into the picture? A medical bill. A clothing bill. A car repair bill, They all seemed to come at once, Jack needed money in a hurry. Answer: A Niagara Loan. Jack talked it over with the manager of the nearest Niagara Office. Besides getting the money, he got a lot of good advice on budgeting, With a Niagara Loan, Jack was able to pay all his bills at one time. And repay the loan on easy terms to suit his budget. When you need extra money for any good reason, you can expect the same courteous, quick service at any one of 300 Niagara offices.

Sounds like a promising year, with probably a wider scope of Can- adian entertainment than has ever been seen before. 0--0--0 If you have nothing to do, make tracks to the nearest lib- rary and find a copy of William Shakespeare's "Richard III". Then go home, read it, and hike to Stratford to see it. I ad- vise reading it first, because you may find yourself a bit in the woods if you are not famil- iar with the characters before- hand. It is a fine production by John. Hirsch of the Manitoba Theatre Centre in Winnipeg, English actor Alan Bates, familiar to world audiences for his performances in movies like "A Kind of Loving", "Zorba the Greek", and "Georgy Girl", plays the title role. As Richard, the young prince who cannot make people love him so is de- termined to prove a villain, Bates is believable and excit- ing, : though some of his lines are not easily audible, particu- larly near the beginning of the production. Canadians Leo Ciceri as Buckingham, William Hutt as Clarence, Mervyn Blake as Derby, and Eric Christmas in two roles, who seldom give us anything but their best, are again outstanding. And two younger performers, Christopher Newton as Catesby, and Barry MacGregor as Richmond, the man who finally defeats Rich- ard, give fine performances. Actresses Frances Hyland as King Edward IV's widow, Zoe Caldwell as Lady Anne who be- comes Richard's wife, and Bar- bara Bryne as Richard's mother, the Duchess of York, are ade- Swimming tests held last week On Saturday, swimming ex- aminations were conducted for Junior, Intermediate, and Sen- ior levels with Miss Linda Stev- enson as examiner. Thirty be- ginners were tested Friday by the pool instructors and ldpass- ed. A total of 24 persons pass- ed exams out of the 31 who tried their tests in their respec- tive Red Cross levels. Diane Stainton, Paul Ber- nett, Tom Walker, Doug Van- derwoude, Carol Higgins, Janis Ohm, Lorna Wenger, Cindy Cook, Russ Jones and Mary Shepherd all passed the exam- ination for juniors. Those who qualified for their intermediate crests were Tom McLaughlin, Lois McLaughlin, Steve 'Watson, Roger Tiffin, Mark Tiffin, of Wingham, and Pat Hamilton, Charlene lien- derson and Lorraine Boyle of Lucknow. Christine Kregar, Lynda Paul, Ian Shepherd and Bonnie Feagan of Wingham and Heath- er Johann and Julie Roane from Teeswater excelled in a diffi- cult senior exam, quate in their roles, but my choise was Ann Firbank, a most attractive English performer, who speaks distinctly and lends an air of grandeur to the stage each time she appears. Eng- land's two gifts to Stratford, help to make "Richard III" a success. But our Canadian stars are no slouches in the support- ing department! MEDALS AND TROPHY WON BY THE BAKER SISTERS OF STRATHROY The Strathroy playground swim team attended the Ontario playground swim meet held at the Thames Pool in London last Saturday where Kendra Baker won three medals. She receiv- ed a bronze medal for the back dive; a gold medal for diving and a silver for swimming. On Monday of last week Jayne Baker attended a golf tournament in Sarnia with the Strathroy and London District golf club. She was in first place in the competition and returned home with the trophy and a silver bon bon dish. The girls are the daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Ken Baker of Strathroy, formerly of Wing- ham.
