His Entrance in the play As the gentle Burgo master will never leave me. I shall always remember the quiet resignation of the Man As he left to face the firing squad. These arc two thanksgiving memories. But there Are others. This column makes no Bones about regarding Garbo As one of the greatest actresses of the Century. Her Camilla seen in revival recently is an acting Miracle that i have witnessed More than 10 times. It has never seemed less than a perfect wondrous thing. Nor shall i forget As Long As i live Pierre Fresnoy in Monsieur Vincent. This in its quiet Way had the stuff of greatness. It was one of those occasions in which an actor has been Able to so sub merge himself in a part that no thing is left but the very essence character he is portray of the ing. This being thanksgiving when people Are traditionally supposed to count their bless Ings might be a Good time for a aged burgomaster in the Maeterlinck play the burgomaster of play too a play in which a personal tragedy of world War on critic to sit Down and reflect exemplified the whole horror of some of.

I far country Ricochet sitting Down today and jotting i a a town Silver chalice football Down As they came to my mind some of the things that have made my Job Happy. The first goes Back Many years when the Walker theatre was open 39 weeks of the year and where i steeped myself in the Good things of the theatre. Sir John Martin Harvey used to pay frequent visits interspersing such old War horses As the Way the Lyons mail and the cigarette maker s Romance with Shakespeare and the i greek classics. Thus it was that sir John came one year with an elaborate production of oedipus Rex. As staged by Max Steinhardt. To a very Young and impressionable mind the purging unbearably tragic Force of that play left me Limp and f shall never forget the Ity and the. Beauty of sir John As oedipus As one by one the facts led up to the terrible Realiza Tion that he was the one who had brought plague on his land. The final scene in sightless he made his Way up the aisle of the Walker theatre will never leave sir John Shmuls out. Loo valour elephant walk Cru sin Down tie liver.

Maureen was caught by a photographer at Plymouth England relaxing Between rehearsals. Who will forget the Entrance of Monsieur Vincent later to become St. Vincent de Paul in the streets of the plague Ridden town with stones hurled at his feet who will forget either the growth of the character to old age and the last Beautiful moments entirely different but just As inspiring was Shirley. Booth in come Back Little Sheba. Miss Booth who started her career As a distinguished comedienne found in the role of Lola the part that no other actress could play As Well. The Sloppy warm hearted House wife trying to live with an alcoholic is one of the great roles of the screen. The late Laurette Taylor in the Glass menagerie goes Down in my Book of thanksgiving As the greatest stage performance i be witnessed. Miss Taylor s performance Wil be remembered wherever actors Are gathered together to talk Over performances. It will be remembered too by All theatregoers Lucky enough to have seen it. I As for concerts my Back to Chicago 18 years ago when i heard the late or. Fred Erick Stock conduct the Chicago symphony orchestra in a performance of Strauss death and transfiguration. The great con Ductor had one of those inspired afternoons in which he was Able i to communicate to his players the electricity of Genius. Finally Margot Fonteyn s dancing in Swan Lake two years ago sent me from the theatre with the sense that i had witnessed a Miracle and that this As Long As i lived would be my idea of How great Ballet can be. There Are other memories too but these will suffice to show that life for a reviewer can have moments when the heart and mind Are touched beyond words dentist Dies funeral today Rishi Farmer repeats world blowing championship win Uppsala Sweden son Howard his Mother mrs. 0r Al Bloom 47, of 207 Scotia Street a Winnipeg died.
