Sie: 10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, Februery 10, 1965 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- A PLEA FOR DOWNTRODDEN ALDERMEN QUOTATION-OF-THE-WEEK DEPT.: "As a city alderman, I am truly grateful to be here to- night to say a few words to you on behalf of His Worship Mayor Lyman Gifford and the City on such an important oc- casion. Perhaps you gentlemen haven't noticed it, but the average city councillor doesn't have as much opportunity these days to speak publicly as he did in bygone days, not with all those women on City Council. They seem to take over completely." ALDERMAN GORDON ATTERSLEY at the annual: Past- Presidents' Banquet of the Oshawa Kinsmen Club. A HAPPY FAREWELL TO ELDON KERR It will seem strange around City Hall without W. Eldon Kerr, who resigned recently after 35 years of service with the Assessment department. To say that his departure will sever a link with the past is to make the understatement of the year. There was only one-sixteenth of the taxable assessment in 1929 that there is today ($253,548,000). He remembers when a new homeowner could live in a house for one year before any assessment was put on it for tax purposes. He also re- members when the City collected an 'income tax" from resi- dents. It was a fitting tribute to Mr. Kerr last Friday when more than 200 turned out for his testimonial dinner. There were also out-of-town greetings sent by people like Evelyn Bateman (the city's first woman alderman) from St. Peters- burg, Florida, and Alderman R. Cecil Bint, chairman of the Board of Works committee who is still on holiday in Florida; REUNITED AFTER 36 YEARS Life.can sometimes produce the unexpected with an emo- tional wallop that literally leaves us hanging on the ropes. Ask Mrs. Gordon Attersley, wife of the City alderman. She received a phone call from Toronto one night last week which emphasized the point, admirably (which she won't forget quickly). "Hello, Nell, is this you," asked a male voice. Remember me." She didn't remember at first, neither could she place the sound of the voice. Then he repeated the question: "This is Al. Anderson from Los Angeles. Don't you re- member me from the good old days out west when we were youngsters. Come on up and see me, I'm your brother and I'm leaving for California in the morning." Mrs. Attersley was visiting with her brother Al, 90 min- utes later -- it was their first reunion in 36 years, since that day in Carnduff, Saskatchewan, when he kissed her good- bye and started off to make his fortune in California How did it feel to meet him again? "It was one of the saddest and happiest moments of my life. He was, and is a good, dear brother. We reminisced mostly about the old days, but we only had four hours together and that's not enough," she said. Don Anderson visited Toronto also to see his mother, Mrs. Ellen Anderson, 89, of Regina, Saskatchewan, who recently concluded a five-week visit with the Attersleys in Oshawa. OH, FOR THE LIFE OF A PARLIAMENTARION ! Talk about the busy life of a member of Parliament. Michael Starr turned up as a head-table guest Thursday might. at the Kinsmen's annual Past Presidents' banquet. Then he left early Friday morning for Malton airport to board a plane for Ottawa and the all-important PC executive caucus, He was back in Oshawa in time for the Eldon Kerr testi- monial dinner starting at 6:30 p.m., but he bowed out before it was over to return home hurriedly and don a tuxedo and tails for the annual Rotary Club at home for the members' wives, SHOW BUSINESS CAN BE FRUSTRATING It happens every year.

They cheer the magnificence of his unique, professional performance that leaves many breathless, yet the majority come away with a grumble, and with reason. is Jackson is only on for about 3% minutes in a pro- duction that extends for about two hours, 15 minutes. There may be. valid rea- sons for such brevity, his routine is exhaustive, ex- tremely hazardous, but this isn't nearly long enough (especially for Jackson buffs whose numbers are legion from coast to coast). Isn't it about time the Follies management realized the point? It doesn't help any to be reassured that other Canadian greats like Michael Kirby and Stewart Reburn were similarly restricted when they once appeared with the temperamental Miss Sonja Heine. DON JACKSON Jackson's appearance is brief, yet he quickly dominates the program with his superb showmanship, skill and daring, with his dynamic spins that never appear to end, and double Lutzes. This-is an achievement because the current Follies is something to write home about, a dazzling, talent-loaded show. It must be frustrating for Don to be criticized unfairly for the brievity of his appearance, which is controlled by management, yet he is a true champion, and never complains. Oshawa patrons still had plenty to cheer about with this year's show; in addition to Don, young Hugh Smith of this city played a prominent part in the production. He was co- starred early with a male partner in a slick and intricate precision number that drew heavy applause. He later appear- ed in a sophisticated Jazz routine with a male quartet in sup- port of the beautiful and talented Jill Shipstad. Smith appears destined for big things with the show.
