Children‘s Ballet Classes, sponâ€" sored by the Recreation Comâ€" mission, gave a most interesting demonstration at Senior Public School last Saturday â€" morning. These classes, under the instrucâ€" tion of Miss Betty Rose of the Academy of Ballet, have shown remarkable improvement over the past year. A demonstration was given by each of the three classes, with a combined demonstration of work on the bar by the 9 o‘clock and 11 o‘clock classes. The charmâ€" ing dresses worn by the children were made by the class mothers. Miss Rose thanked the pianist, Miss Betty Rosewarne, for her exâ€" cellent accompaniment during the season. Mrs. R. Smallmanâ€"Tew, chairman of the ballet committee, spoke briefly to the 70 parents and friends in attendance and then introduced the principal of the Academy of Ballet, Miss Bettina Byers, who remarked on the proâ€" gress of the class. Plans have already been made for an early opening of the Ballet Classes in September. Minor Girls‘ Softball League, for girls 13 to 17 years of age, commenced on Tuesday, June 9. Teams were selected and a short practice game held. The regular schedule will start on Thursday, June 11, at 6.30 p.mn., with all games being played at Elm Playâ€" ground. Registration will continue and girls in the above age group are invited to join the league. Model Aeroplane Club â€" held their first meeting on Thursday, June 4, in the Activity Centre of the Recreation Commission, and plans were formulated for the operation of the club, which is under the guidance of Mr. Bill Pursel of Pursel Precision Producâ€" tions. Another meeting is planned for Thursday, June 18, and enâ€" quiries are invited. Junior Tennis Instruction: Al young people interested in learnâ€" ing to play tennis, kindly register at the Recreation Office, 4 Little avenue, between 12.30 and 4.30 p.m. week days. To assist with expenses, a small registration fee will be charged and classes will commence on Thursday, June 11, under the instruction of Cec. Hyde and will be held throughout the summer months on Monday, Tuesâ€" day, Thursday and Friday from 4.00 to 6.00 p.m. Players are reâ€" quested to wear rubber soled shoes and bring along their own racquet, if possible. Anyone having usable tennis racquets, which might be used by the Juniors, kindly call the Recreation Office at CH. 1â€"4561. Delius was the sort of man who would come back from a rose garden and write music about & shy wild violet he had seen there and ignore the cultivated flowers. For the fragile scents and sounds of the English countryside, there is no better description in art than his _ ‘"North Country â€" Sketches" which deal with the wind, soughâ€" ing in the autumn trees, a dance, and sketches of winter and spring. His chief protagonist, Beecham, has made a wonderful recording of _ it, _ coupled _ with _ Delius‘ ‘"Eventyr‘ â€" which means "Once Upon A Time" and deals with the spirit of Norwegian folklove. These two treasures are on Col. MLâ€"4637. Pork will be advancing at retail, | reports The Financial Post. Sharp | price jump reflects a parallel jnmp’ in hog prices in U.S. Jimmy Boyd, with the sandpaper voice that sang "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" has now coupled his taients on a Col. 78 tosing with Rosemary Clooney in "Dennis the Menace." It won‘t wear too well but is an enjoyable @ontemporary hit. Three parts of Mendelssohn‘s "Midsummer Night‘s Dream" Suite, the Overture, Nocturne and Scherzo, and three parts of Schuâ€" bert‘s "Rosamunde", the Overture, B Flat Entracte and Ballet Music in G, are coupled on one dise by Edward van Beinum and the Conâ€" certgebouw Orchestra of Amsterâ€" dam. They are not complete verâ€" sions, and the coupling is not going to meei the needs of every collector, but the performances are as nimble and neat as you are likely to hear, especially . the Mendelssohn Scherzo. London LLâ€" 622. try "Anna Russell Nings2" MLâ€"4594. The question a definitely part of the title she is just mimicing the t%pes of poor singing ov often hear. She has advics loud singers with no bra; deaf singers, and those w mendous artistry, but no enjoyed also her own com; iMustrating the French a man artâ€"songs, folk songs Sibelius â€" First Symphony on Victor with Stokowski and his orchestra has always been my preference, but hearing the London issue done by the London Symâ€" phony and Anthony Collins has been an interesting comparison. Collins has more the manner of a rough diamond which was Sibelius‘ character, â€" but less clarity of eounterpoint and melodic line in some places. My preference is still slightly in Stoky‘s favor, tho‘ he now seems a bit feminine. Recreation Commission News For a laugh in th by > Marold A. Miller, L.R.S.M.

To talk to such is an inspiration, and such folk truly possess that broadâ€" minded opinion that goes with men or women whose vision lies beyond the town limits, “ After church and lunch on Sunâ€" ‘dny the family is off, let‘s say to | Hiâ€"Potâ€"Low Park at Rockwood. |The Smarts, from Pa and Ma down !tn 2 year old Orion have a glorious |timeâ€"not only travelling out and ‘kback but of exploring this fascinatâ€" \ing spot. Sure! You can sit in an easy chair and see the walled city of Quebec via the world‘s best teleâ€" vision set but is that the same as seing such with yopr own eyesâ€" right on the spot? | _A new life well nigh opens up | to the Smarts on their return home, Gone is that crabby feeling and [that one track mind! Medicine. \television or sitting around is uot |the panacea for monotony! A ‘minor trip or tour will work wonâ€" dersâ€"try such and probably you‘ll |agree Tâ€"N is not "so daffy" after all. Johnny Jones and his family have a late model car, It is used for odd trips to the city and at weekâ€"ends it «is garaged. Mrs. Jones tries to persuade her hubby to take the family out for a picnic on Sunday p.m., but no, he‘s "a stick at home." Tâ€"N pities this type of family. But let‘s see what goes on with the "Smart" family. Yes! They have an oldish car which is kept in tip top shape. ‘ Why not try the following two day trip this summer, Let us saily ?forth to Orangeville and turn off \No. 10 at Shelburne onto No. 24. | We pull into the D.H.0. Campsite |at the Devil‘s Glen, high overlookâ€" |ing the Georgian Bay, We are 1700 [feet high, here in a 12 acre park. |Spring water is piped in, fire | places, picnic tables, toilet facilities iarc available. _ The scenery is |superb. The cost for an overnight | stay here is nil! Bert Smart forgets about that defective adding machine that gave trouble at his office desk. Annie, his wife, effaced the memory of that broken clothes line and Junior his squabble with sister Orion. To take the family â€" even of thl'(‘l"â€"‘(!n a week or more tour entails quite an expense, that is if one eats at restaurants and stays overnight at upâ€"toâ€"date motels etc. But there is a growing army of camping enthusiasts â€" folks who not dnly take a pressure stove in the car but a tent or even an extra for the youngsters. Its fun, its an experience, the cost is little and there is that nice feeling of indeâ€" pendence too, |_The following day we dip down ‘to Collingwood along the side of i(;onrgian Bay, â€" noting â€" another D.H.O. Campsite 6 miles west, and ‘so onto Thornbury, Meaford and |\Owen Sound. Let‘s lunch there, | _ We can return home via Dunâ€" \dalk, etc., to Orangeville or, better travel due south through Mt. }F(n-est, Arthur, Fergus to Guelph land home by No. 7 or even No,. 5. Tâ€"N has used the same tent for 14 years, and it has repaid him plenty. He uses it for about 20 days annually. Multiply such by three dollars for an average cabin or hotel room. His tiptop tent cost him $30. Frankly his investment has saved him over 800 dollars! _ If, on the other hand, you abhor \this sort of carefree life Tâ€"N sugâ€" \gests you forget this holiday |advice. Maybe the crowded Lake ;Simcoe resorts, Wasaga Beach or |even Sunnyside would appeal to | you more! But this columnist enâ€" \joys the Gypsy type of life on his |travels and so do many others, | apparently, CN Expr('ssman Saves Life Of "HMuman Torch" His fast action in saving the life of a woman, whose flaming clothes had turned her into a "human torch," has earned for William J. Brennan, Canadian National Exâ€" press _ driver, _ Montreal, _ wideâ€" spread praise and $15 from an anonymous person. The money was sent by mail a few days after the incident occurred. Brennan was delivering a parcel in midâ€"town Montreal when the victim, her clothes on fire, ran screaming from her house next door. He ran to her aid, wrapping his overcoat about her to smother the flames, and then summoned police and an ambulance. With their arâ€" rival, _ Brennan _ moved _ quietly through the crowd of bystanders to his truck and continued on his run before police could get his name. It was the next day before the "unidentified . man" credited . by hospital and police authorities with saving . the woman‘s life, was identified as Brennan. 12845 . Appointment _ of _ Progressive Conservative Leader George Drew to the Queen‘s Privy Coauncil for Canada on the eve of his deâ€" parture for Britain with Canada‘s official Coronation party was reâ€" ceived _ in _ political circles _ in Ottawa as a gracious tribute to his distinguished record of public service.
