By DONALD PHILLIPSON TORONTO (CP)--Canada's hothouse for budding musi- cians, the National Youth Or- chestra, has set up shop on the University of Toronto campus. More than 100 performers, aged 14 to 24, are undergoing weeks of rehearsals be- fore their series of 10 con- certs It is seven years since Wal- ter Susskind, then conductor | of the Toronto Symphony, or- ganized the NYO to train mu- sicians of the future. Janet | McAdam of Toronto, a bass | cello player, is the only mem- ber of the orchestra to have played in 1960 and every year since then. About 30 gradu- ates of the NYO have moved on to careers in professional orchestras. This year's orchestra is made up of more than 80 newcomers and a few veter- ans of two to six seasons' ex- perience. Two of the oldsters are married and the majority | 2% | are still at high school or uni- versity. | HAS LITTLE ENGLISH There are several young French-Canadians and_ one, 17-year-old violinist Denise Noreau of La Tuque, Que., can hardly speak a word of English. She shares a_bed- room in Victoria College, the NYO's temporary dormitory, with Sylvia Novak, 17, of Dor- chester, Ont., a freshman next fall at the University of Western Ontario's music col- lege. Sylvia's French is the high-school variety John Barnum, 20, of Guelph, Ont., showed up for rehearsals on time barely 10 days after having his appen- dix out. He, like Denise, is under special care of the chaperon staff and "Miss B" --Barbara Barrow. Miss Barrow is one of the institutions of Upper Canada College, the boys' private boarding school in Toronto, where she has been school nurse for 30 years. She was asked to join the National Youth Orchestra's tour three years ago and has travelled with them ever since, to Eastern and Western Canada and Europe. Miss B. says the young mu- sicians are so self-possessed- and healthy that her main task is seeing that they do not overwork.

Bassoonist Rene Bernard, 20, of St. Jean, Que., talked about organizing a jazz combo but thought it would be difficult to get the right in- struments, such as saxo- phones. He didn't know then that the NYO's harpist, Car- roll McLaughlin of New West- minster, B.C., started on the saxophone at four.

Another contest-winner in the orchestra is the "Wonder Girl," 17-year-old Kathy Wun- der of Toronto, who won the CBC's Talent Festival this year for her violin-playing, against competitors aged up to 30.

This Rock N' Roll combination, number- ing five members, scored a solid hit at the Hideaway last spring. It is conceivable that their stay will be extended considerably if they duplicate past performances. The Hideaway offers a cool atmosphere these nights for those who would beat the hot, humid weather and The Noblemen seem to be the right prescription, musically- speaking. GEORGIAN MOTOR HOTEL General-Manager Street of the posh Vintage Room of the Georgian Motor Hotel the largest cocktail lounge enter- tainment room in the city announced this week that the Dick Valleau quintet will continue on for the remainder of the month. And little wonder. Valleau's group knows how to please the large dance crowds that turn out nightly at the Georgian; this is especially so of Bob Hill, the romantic vocalist who should soon carve out a place for himself in the world of show business This is the fifth consecutive week for the group and it is conceivable that they will surpass Tish Goode's record for the room. Valleau is espe- cially good with his jazz ren- ditions on the piano which al- ways leave the customers asking for more The Georgian is reaping a "beautiful harvest with its all dance sessions featuring the Valleau quintet and General manager Street intends to continue this policy. HOTEL LANCASTER The Jack Kingston Trio will close out tonight at the Blue Horse Lounge of the Hotel Lancaster. The incoming attraction, starting on Monday night, night, will be one of the best Country and Western troupes in the country -- the New Arkansas Travellers, widely known as superb entertainers around the cocktail lounge Rodeo and] circuit. They have, been prime favorites in past months at entertainment places in. the Catskill Mountains and in New Jersey and New York city and come here with good credentials Two of the better stars in the troupe are Bobbie and Reid Northrup, both of whom are likely to make a solid impact on the Blue Horse lounge patrons. There will also be Dick Hemsley whose musical versatility is unique. He performs on the mando- lin, banjo-mandolin, the auto harp and 12-string guitar. Reid Northrup is also a superb comic with an hilar- ious line of his own which helps keep the show moving at a fast pace General - manager Charles Lancaster has booked a solid act in The Arkansas Travel- lers. THE CADILLAC HOTEL The Coronet Room of the Hotel Cadillac on Simcoe St. S. will feature the Eddy Wood Duo next week starting on Monday night Wood is a talented perform- er who holds the centre of the stage from the moment of his entry to the final fade- out. He can sing with gusto and charm and his range is impressive. He goes all the way from Rock N' Roll to special supper club numbers. Wally Boyko helps him with the entertainment and plays the cordovax -- he also sings close harmony with Wood. Miss Darlene Dean adds the right feminine touch to the act with her colorful dancing which usually gets rounds of applause The zroup has been play- ing with much success at the Fischer Hotel in Guelph and at other first-rate stops along the cocktail lounge circuit. SPRUCE VILLA HOTEL Danny Caughlin and His Young Canadians are up to their old tricks at the Spruce Villa Hotel in Whitby. They again prove to be great crowd - pleasers especially Heather O'Hart, the exotie dancer who formerly appear+ ed in such places as Phila- delphia and Washington. Caughlin is a whole. show in himself with his variety act and superb! renditions of musical numbers. THE WHITBY HOTEL The Stage Door Lounge of the. Whitby Hotel will hold over the Ray\Belmonte Duo for a second week starting Monday night. They feature popular songs and use accor- dion and drums for back- ground musical effect. '
