These two Engâ€" lishmen, known as the ‘Tune Smiths‘, are presently appearing in the Sportsman‘s Inn of the Constellation Hote® on Dixon Road. Although both men were born and raised in England, where they each played in many pubs, they met here in Toronto. While they were both working in the Engineering Department of Orâ€" enda Engines in Malton, they discovered their mutual desire to become professional enterâ€" tainers. Denny gathered up his drums and Al sat at the piano and they began to work out a touâ€" tine. After a few months they went to the Billy O‘Connor Agâ€" ency where Doug Rogers, an agâ€" ent, saw that the duo had potenâ€" tlal.

"People like to singâ€"along and participate, not just sit and listen," remarked Denny Calyâ€" The Tune Smiths find that suburbanites are more friendly than downtown audiences. Feelâ€" ing that everyone in the room is their personal friend, they mingle with the audience during their breaks, to discuss music, business and anything else that happens to come up. During their conversations, they have found that many people would like to have song sheets. Howâ€" ever, Al and Denny must tell them that the Liquor Control Board will allow people to sing, but will not allow them to have song sheets. Al says, "people want to know why." A Scout Leader and also a director of the Malton. Recreatâ€" ion Association, Al finds that his spare time is very limited. At present, he is involved with the problems of obtaining a complete recreation centre for the Malton area.
