Dazzling in color. costumes and design, the show was produced by Alexander Baiisch. club profes- sional. and former Austria junior " ' whose L,----'-u in Spanish dance on ice. and in a free skating demonstration won wild applause. The show was a fast moving. well-timed performance. and the brilliant skating exhibitions which featured such stars as Jackie Gougen, Carol Ann Landry. Ruth- ann Milburn. Marilyn Miller. Gall Stultz. Evelyn Edgett. and Gail Clark, undoubtedly won many fans for the art of figure skating. Already considerable interest has been evidenced in Summerside where upwards of 100 young people of varying ages are enrolled classes under the tuition of Mr. Baiisch. a native of Austria. who has won international skating com- petitions and starred in European and American ice shows. Plans are being made for a con- tinuation and expansion of the Summerside club next year. when it is anticipated that Mr. Balisch will again be providing instruction at Moncton and Summerside. THE DOLL SHOP The show on Saturday night at Civic Stadium began when minia- ture drum majorette. Brenda Wal- ker, led her contingent of "wood- en soldiers” through their paces in beginning a skating fantacy en- titled "The Doll Shop". a journey into the imaginary world of dolls. Bonny Miller was seen in a very pert routine to the music of Le- roy Anderson's "Syncopated Clock," followed by four oriental dolls doing the "Chinese Street "HIT THE DECK" MUSICAL CINEMASCOPI CAPITOL SUMMERSIDE A shipload of song-and-dance stars, a cargo of laughs. four rom- ances and Vincent Youmans song hits add up to entertainment in a big way in M-G-M's happ new Cinemascope musical, "Ht the Deck." now on view at the Capi- tol Theatre. i Latest of the gala. no-expense spared color tuners turned out by hit-making producer Joe Paster- nak.

Jackie Gougen skate to the Latin American classic, "Begin the Beguine." GRENADA One of the highlights of the show was the performance by the club instructor Alex Baiisch. who show- ed his audience the meaning of the words poise and assurance, with his masterful interpretation of "Grenada." In Europe the audience witness- lll ed the free style skating competi- tion of the Olympic Games, with Ruth Ann Milburn. and then took a quick jump into Gay Paree to catch Carol Landry. Jackie Gou- gen. Gail Stutz. Gail Clark, and Evelyn Edgett doing the "Can- Can". A riotous journey into sunny Tex- as provided a look at cattle rust- ling. square dancing. and Ruth Ann Milburn shooting up the place with "Pistol Packin Mamma". Mr. Balisch returned again to dazzle his audience with a polish- ed performance in a free skating number entitled "Light Cavalry". Marilyn Miller soled on "Blow.

S'side lions Club Planning Minstrel Show An old time minstrel band. banlo solos. saxphonc solos. real close harmony and plenty of rib- tickling jokes by the end men are Just sample-:; of what is in store for the audience on Tuesday. Wednes- day, and Thursday. nights of this week when the Summerside Lions Club stages their second annual minstrel show in the Baptist Hall. Last year's production is still re- membered as tops in the local mn- strel shows. but the Lions have really outdone themselves this year with a brand new line-up of comedy filled acts. lilting south- ern mclodies, instrumental numb- ers. in fact something doing every minute from the opening curtain to the grand finale. The fine work accomplished by the members of the Lions Club is known to all and the generous sup- port of the piibiic to their annual show will enable them to carry on the projects they have undertaken for the good of the community. An evening spent at the Lions Club minstrel show will make the world seem a lot happier and en- courage this fine group of young men to carry on their good works. Unlike last year's minstrel show produced by the Summerside Lions Club. the show this year will not be presented outside of Summer- side. with the exception of one night when the cast will journey to Charlottetown where they will stage the show at the Provincial Sanatorium for the pleasure and enjoyment of the patients. Minor Playoffs Begin Tonight Ai Civic Stadium of the season takes place at Civic Stadium this evening when the Kensington Juveniles play Sum- merside Juveniles for the right to for the Island Championship. Ken- sisngton looks really strong this year. They've beaten both Char- iottetown and Summerside in ex- hibition games. Only last week they took the Summerside boys by the fairly convincing score of 9-4. it must be said, however. for the that they were minus their first line of "Red" MacLean. Bobby Phillips and Ulric Gallant. With these three boys added to the team, this series with Kensington should be mighty interesting. It is to be hoped that a good crowd of fans turn out for this game. They're virtually assured of a close struggle and a lot of fine hockey, and they will also have the satisfaction of knowing they are contributing towards the success of our minor hockey program. upon which depends the success of our senior teams of the future, Couples under 10 - 1.
