Vag 4600 A new tennis court was officially opened at St Joseph School, Kingsbridge Saturday and tennis club members initiated the new sports facility by holding nom by Dave Sykes) a tour- 'Comedy our `Comedy :Players' holdvariety show to raise money dor new tennis club You've heard it said, "they played to a full house". Last Sunday even- ing, a group of local, humor- ous folks "played to a full barn" at "Art's place just north of Kintail by a few fields. The "Kintail Comedy Players", as they call them- selves, held a variety show to raise money for the newly formed Kingsbridge Com- munity School Tennis Club, so all proceeds go for this purpose. ° The Sinnett family of De- troit provided music, lights and sound equipment for the event. They displayed their many talents as they played throughout the evening, providing music for the vari- ous acts. The show was capably emceed by that "Macho Man" himself; Tom Sinnett, assisted by Sheila Nelson. Sheila also directed the show (Why not Robert Redford does both?). Yvonne Sinnett, one of the "Bush Street Swingers", started off the evening with her rendition of "Bottle of Wine", which the crowd reacted to with ,a thunderous applause. The next act was for the ladies who might have missed their soap opera. A slightly different one than most would think, but cand- idly done by the versatile Shawn Dalton, who had really outgrown his tub and rubber ducky, but was aim- ing to please. Mr. Tom then introduced the next act with no offense to Dolly Parton, Betty Lou Dalton sang a Merle Haggert number. At this time in the program, they chose to pro- mote one of the local busi- nesses with "Poster Girl", Bonnie Sinnett displaying the "Ashfield Service Centre Sign". Eileen Wilson was the bothersome old lady and Tony (portrayed by Tom Sin - nett) having to show his pat- ience and as usual satisfied his customer. Tony tells us business has been booming ever since and Eileen and Tom proved to be new and upcoming commercial stars. Jim Sinnett gave a medley of his favourite songs closing with the crowd pleasing "Mamie". Teto Sinnett and Cathy VanDiepen, the "Bush Street Pickers" sang "Gravel Run", which they wrote ana composed them- selves. so Nashville could be seeing a lot of these two.

Sheila - then introduced "Betty Birdaltori" (an un- known) as a prima donna doing Swan Lake to the classic piano playing of Patty Sinnett, and as the ballerina clodded across the stage in various leaps and bounds, she beckoned for her dancing partner, a well known Mike Dalton, and as they careened and swayed, the Ballerina finally leaped from the stage into the waiting arms of the "Roquettes", who were pre- paring to come on for the closing kickline. These beau- ties were made up of "The Blond Fuse" - Art Simpson; "Too Bit of Fresh" - Mike Dalton, - "Rosy Cheeks" - Bill Simpson, "Super Shawn Dalton" and "Macho Man" - Tom Sinnett. The group was led on stage by Poster Girl Bonnie Sinnett. We've heard since that the National Ballet is sending agents to review the "Roquettes". A new car- eer could be in store for them, we'll miss you, boys. The Tennis Club appreci- ates all the good sports who took part in the show and ,to the audience who supported them.
