taller: and wholesalers of as many different trades as possible.

The whole cast carried off the long programme with vim. vig- our and vitallity as surely the 29 previous Minstrel shows had. The long tradition has been car- ried on to 1955 and the show for 1956 has a terrific challenge to

meet.

Colour highlighted lthe show. Not only in the black faces of the four end men. Connie Le Clair, Jaiiies McAleer. Earl Nicholson and James Flanagan but in the yellow labels of the men of the Chorus and the bright blouses and brown dresses of the lovely young ladies. The spotlight en- hanced the production which ran very smoothly from beginning to end. The voices of the chorus were excellent in their group singing and also their refrains with the various artists who sang. Their rendering of the Negro Spirituals was particularly praise- worthy.

The Master of Ceremonies. the Interlocutor was carried off with good taste and humor by Leo Dorion and his delivery of lines with the End Men was excellent.

Mr. Coldweil retorted he was "surprised that a minister for- whom I had a great deal of respect should stoop to the level of smearing."

Mr. Cameron was not in the Commons at the time.

Mr. Coldweil brought up the issue on a question of privilege. saying the press and radio had carried a story of a serious alleg- ation by Mr. Harris.

"In discussing the expulsion of certain Trotskyites from the CCF -may I say that no organization in Canada has been more careful to expel Communists when we dis- covered tbem- he said similar charges could be laid against some federal CCF members," Mr. Cold- well said.

ASKS FOR NAMES

”I am a CCF federal member. I ask the minister to name the federal members to whom he refers."

Mr. Harris said the report from Toronto attributed to him was "a report without any quotation marks around it."

Several new faces appeared in "Merry Melodies" for the first time and were immediate hits. The Music Makers played several old-time favorites. Their youth and enthusiasm won the hearts of the audience. Pretty Catherine Fields sang an enchanting ver- sion of "The Wedding of Jack and Jill".
