WITH BOBBIES, bands, big- wigs, bowlers and buses, the British are coming with a bang-bang. In fact, they have alreads arrived in Toronto where red double-deckers are shuttling across Metro and the Peelers in their hard helmets (once worn by Toronto's Finest) are on duty as ambas- sadors of goodwill. Something of swinging Brit- ain will sweep into Oshawa on Thursday when the Old Coun- try Club presents David Whit- field, and a star variety show at the Civic Auditorium. Royalty will be arriving in Toronto on Monday in the per- son of Her Royal Highness Princess Alexandra and her husband the Honorable Angus Ogilvy following on the heels of Danny Kaye who is coming to give his personal patronage to UNICEF. There'll barely be time to empty the ashtrays in the VIP lounge at Malton before the Prime Minister of North- ern Ireland, Captain the Hon- orable Terence O'Neill MP and Mrs, O'Neill arrive at Toronto International Airport on Tuesday and, to maintain the merry jig, the Lord Mayor on London, Sir Robert Bel- linger and his Lady Mayoress will bow in on Thursday, THE MAYOR of Hastings, Alderman Vera M. Jones JP flew in on Tuesday for the un- veiling of the Hastings Em- broidery. This beautiful, mod- ern work inspired by the famous Bayeux tapestry, de- picts the history of Britain in a series of twenty panels, each nine feet long. Produced to commemorate the 900th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings in 1066, the embroi- dery is the work of the Royal School Of Needlework and measures 243 feet in length. That kept the class in stitches. Other royalty and luminar- fes include George Hitchin, the "Pearly King" Alfie How- ard, the town crier and Tom Barrett, England's Darts Champ. All these visitors are not just names. They carry with them the tradition of centuries. The best remembered Lord Mayor of London is one Richard Whittington. Sir Rob- ert Bellinger, the current Lord Mayor is the 639th elected holder of the office which dates back to 1192. Whoever presumes to the office must face three elections, plus the final scrutiny of his peers, the Court of Aldermen. The reign- ing sovereign's approval is needed to verify election both as sheriff and Lord Mayor. Within the City of London the Mayor has precedence over every other subject and ranks second only to Queen Eliza- beth IT or Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. The annual Lord Mayor's Show is a mon- ster parade of bands and floats in which the new Lord Mayor is "shown" to the people. His job is not all fun, he carries a heavy load of administration. At one time every London borough had its own Pearly monarch. Many still have and George Hitchin's brother, Fred, is Pearly King of West- minster. THE "PEARLIES" trace their origin to the late 16th century and are the descen- dants of street vendors or costermongers, derived from costard mongers, sellers of a special type of apple. They formed clans to protect their pitches and the leader and his wife were the King and Queen. Mr. Hitchin's pearly suit weighs half a hundred- weight and every one of its thousands of buttons has been stitched into its complicated designs by the family, an ex- tensive one, as the City's "King" has ten children and 24 grandchildren and each has his or her own pearly cos- tume. These costumes are traditionally handed down from one generation to the next as the titles of King and Queen are hereditary, while children of Kings and Queens are given the title of Pearly Princes and Princesses. In the 37 years that George Hitchin has been Pearly King of the City of London, he has collected over $90,000 for charity by singing in the "pub" of the City of London and those around the docks on Sunday mornings. Resplendent in his scarlet and gold 18th century suit and tricorne hat, Alfie cHow- ard was the champion' town crier of England 1959-60. He comes by his talent naturally.

A survivor of Dunkirk where he won the Military Medal, Alfie suffered shellshock and pulled himself together by his native wit. A MODERN William Tell, Tom Barrett who lives near London Airport, has been playing darts seriously for more than 30 years and has won every major British championship. In 1964 he visited Australia and won a $1,500 silver and gold trophy for Britain. Apart from his phenomenal! skill (he can play equally as well when the board is covered with paper) he can throw six-inch nails with the same dexterity.

Your advice was perfect. I wish every mother in the world could read it. My mother made my life miserable because she disliked the boy I was going with. I was 17, no longer a child, and I resented her bossiness. Natural- ly, the more she talked against Joe the more determined I was to keep going with him. After a few months I realized he really wasn't much, and the main rea- son I kept seeing him was because my mother hated him Dear Ann Landers: I would] displayed ANN LANDERS Teenage Girl Shov'a Dress In Private That did it.

Dear Ann Landers; I have read many letters in your col- umn from people who are fed up on money showe}'s and othe poorly disguised gitmmicks for getting cash out of friends and relatives, I attended a pre-shiower party yesterday which vwas the last straw. It was held tat the home of the bride-to-be. Mer mother and aunt co-hosted' the party. On the dining room table were several appliances, (toaster, electric ~percolator, can opener, blendirt: machine, {steam iron, stacks of bed Unen, a place setting of china and jseveral pieces of silver. The iprices were all in evidence. The bride's aunt announced, "These lovely things have not been purchased--only borrowed from the stores. We would like you people to write down what you'd like to give the bride as a wedding gift. We will phone you and let you know if someone 'has already spoken for that particular gift. In this way we will avoid duplicates." Am I wrong to feel this is just about the bottom of the barrel? What would you do under the circumstances?--In-. sulted Dear Insulted: I'd ignore all hints, guides and suggestions and buy the bride something that was not being touted.

The bottoms of old beer barrels supplanted the tree trunks, bringing the game into its now "natural"' en- vironment of public houses.
