good It is true that the dancer Sandra Wright would have been better with longer and more graceful skirts in her ballet sequence She is an inter national winner of Scottish dan cing ller expertise is unques tioned and she has exceptional ability to seem as light as Scottishthistle But even her Scottish costume could have been richer and perhaps more glamorous Emcee for the evening and dominating the show Hon Coburn kept the night of enter tainment from sagging He is huge Scotsman with an innate sense of shimmanship He has too great deal of charm But when it comes to humor or nonsense he had
