The production was produced by Bob Precht and if that name doesn ;,t ring a bell, and give yoU a clue as to who the master of cere- monies was; let me remind you. Precht is Ed Sullivan's son-in-law and shore 'nuff, the old boy him- self was back, looking younger. than he did when he had his own series, but still finding it nec- essary to read every4vord from a cue -card. ,.i` The awards are:small gold replicas of George M. Cohan, one of the greatest entertainers of all times, and they are. called, of course, Georgies. The awards are given in his honor and are for live work, not filmed television or movie performances. - Not surprisingly, • the Enter- ieclo earw d rix wend' to ubly donor a man I have for years classed as the greatest entertainer of the, cen- tury, and a man so like Cohan himself -• Sammy Davis Jr. No one works as hard as Sammy to entertain an audience; his versa- tility and vitality just completely involve you in every perfor- mance. In his acceptance speech, Sammy said he wanted to 'share' his award, with -'my good 'friend, Bobby Darin'. Bobby, of course, died at the end of the year after heart surgery. The big winner for the ladies was a real lady, Kate Smith, Who amid difficulties of losing her Voice (it actually did disappear a few times.), sang modern tunes and her old' standby, "God Bless America", to receive a deafening ovation. It is difficult to imagine that she has been entertaining since the First World War, Roberta Flack, and •who can think of her without thinking of "Killing Me Softly", was named the female singer of the year and Carol Burnett the comedienne of the year (her fourth time to win). She looked like yesterday's left - by Venni Lee ' • overs and made a rotten accep- tance speech ;. seems to me her head is. getting a -bit too big for her shoulders. But in spite of all and regardless of the fact that her show is getting lousier every week, she 'does work hard to please her audiences. Redd Foxx, star of Sanford and Son, won the male cOmic award; Sonny and Cher were the best duo and Roy Clark won the country- and-western award. And Tanya the Elephant tripped daintily onto the stage to eat peanuts (or whatever it.is that show biz ele- phants eat) and accept her award as Animal Erntertainer of the Year. She didn't give an' accep- tance speech at all and impressed more people than some of the others which only shows to go you that you can often influence more people by keeping your mouth. shut! • •.

Show' and earning"recognition or making thissick old world just a little happier in 1973. 000 Last Sunday's "Country Can- ada" was definitely of interest to residents of Western Ontario as it looked at the founding and early life of Guelph's Ontario Agricul- tural College which this year. is celebrating its 'ibbth birthday. Throughout the ages, men have • fought progress and the OAC was no exception. Many farmers, then, felt that 'farmin' and 'book studyio' just didn't go together. Why did a lad have to go to school to learn to farm? Three years before the college even opened, The Farmer's Advocate fought it by saying that "farmers' sons would learn more in six months from the real practical men of the country then they would in two years in the proposed college". The last century has proved them wrong, of course, as many students have benefitted from the college. It has come a long way from the 30 students it began with; and what an interesting life it has had! Maurice Bolyer, right, who plays the banio on CBC television's Tommy Hunter Show, was the delighted recipient of an RPM Gold Leaf Award to mark the sales success of his Golden Banjo Classics record album and stereo tapers. It's the first time that anyone on the show had achieved a Gold Leaf Award and Tom himself made a formal presentation to Maurice on a recent Tommy Hunter Show. R IN:TEREST Novi Available ( n 1ST.
