a 4 There's Cold| _ In Forgotten - Film Vaults HOLLYWOOD (AP) -- Some- what belatedly, the movie in- dustry discovered the gold mine in film vaults, and efforts now are being made to protect that valuable lode. During the first four decades of film history, little was done to preserve the movies pouring out of Hollywood. After a fea- ture had exhausted its money- making potential, the negative was shoved into a vault and forgotten. Except for a rare classic that might warrant an- other release there was no rea- son to be concerned about pre- serving old films. Television changed that. By selling their old movies for use on the home screen, studios maintained a financial equilib- rium during the theatre de- pression of the 1950s. Then they became vitally interested in protecting their archives. "In some cases it was too late," explains a film veteran. "The early films were put on paper film, which became moldy and bug-ridden with age.|; Sometimes you'd open a can of old film and find nothing but dust OSHAWA BAND OF 1906 POSES ON GROUNDS OF PROSPECT PARK - -.

That is why Bobby Bouchard and The Enchant- ers are doing such big busi- ness there. Bobby's two top vocal hits are He and the setimental number known as Crying. Little wonder that The En- chanters are heading for a three-week stint at Expo '67 this summer. The act has other strong assets in Grant Wilson on piano, Paul Lawson on steel guitar, Jimmy Leach on bass guitar, and the effer- vescent Ken Coons on drums. They are a thoroughly profes- sional musical quartet.
