Kinsmen Variety Show "A Smash Hit" Last Night

"Doing What Comes Naturally" was the title of one of the songs in the Kinsmen Varieties of '55 last night and it appeared to be a case of just doing what came naturally for the entire cast as they gave a brilliant opening night performance before a cap- acity crowd at the Prince of Wales College auditorium.

The show ran for more than two hours and a half but the variety and quality of the enter- tainment were of such a high calibre that practically every moment was filled with die It- most pleasure.

The large crowd loved the show K

as they demonstrated by their air plause and their comments as they left the hall. They liked the novelty of the forms of entertain- ment and they liked the manner in which each entertainenperform: ed in his or her capacity.

The show gave evidence of long weeks of preparation and although each member appeared to be doing what came naturally it was easily known that the success of the show was due 10 ability. hard work and careful planning. '

The entertainers kicked off with the chorus singing four songs after which there were six different scenes which included practically everything in the way of enter- tainment. I

The first scene showed the cast gathered around the old camp fire and singing western songs. The very capable husband and wife team of Kay and Elmer Gal- lant sang two songs during the

It showed the four and their parties entering the tavern and it also showed them staggering out to the accompaniment of a torrent of abuse from the inside As each of the four came out he sang a song in keeping with his occupa- tion. At the end they formed a quartet and kept the audience amused with their singing pnd ac- companying antics. 4

Peggy Dalziel and her dancing girls were outstanding in a dan- cing routine. Peggy was accom- panied by ten girls and they gave as smart a dancing review as has been seen here for some time.

This was followed by a violin playing demonstration by Dennis Dowllng whose hometown was listed as somewhere in Lower Slobovia. Earlier in the show Den- nis had appeared in a step dan- cing role.

In the' final scene the master of ceremonies Walter LePage brought the cast down to the Ole South for a show on the river boat. Loman MacAulay as captain of the boat and he had crew mem- bers Earl "ennessey. Kay Gallant. Helen Roach. Ivan Doherty and Ivan Weatherbie sing. He joined the Four Tons of Harmony and Helen Roach to sing a negro spir- itual and had Elmer Gallant give his impressions on how a poker game should be played.

Walter LePage very capably acted as MC. He did splendid work on a hard job and kept the show rolling along. Waltei filled in between scenes to keep the audience entertained and perhaps the highlight of his efforts was the scene with George MacDonald on

Give:Views On Punishment

OTTAWA ICP) S Maj.-Gen. R. B. Gibson. Canada's commission- of penitentiaries, said Tues- day corporal punishment should not be ordered by judges as part of a sentence for a crime.

He said the deterrent effect of a long pcnitcntiary term is as effective as a shorter term ac- companied by corporal punish- merit.

The lash was not a deterrent to crime because of the consid- erable period between the time it was ordered by the courts and the time it was applied. The de- lay was due to appeals.
