Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - December 27, 1971, Winnipeg, Manitoba Youth scene by Andy Mellen Christmas May be dead for Many people but its spirit lingers on for a great majority of canadians. In keeping with this spirit of friendliness and Good will i think that it s Only fitting that i refrain from Chas timing criticizing and just Plain calling Down radio stations promoters people in the Field of education and any one else who i might have levelled a blast at during the past few months. Next week things will be to Normal. For the rest of the year though i m going to make things easy for everyone. Short stuff As it came to pass that there was a birth on Christmas Day unless you went into seclusion Over the weekend you be probably heard that Santa Glaus had an extra Little Surprise for or. And mrs. Tru Deau a baby boy. It would appear that it was an Amaz ing bit of timing on the part of the pm. Dianne Heatherington and the merry go round who be added a fair selection of original material to their repertoire lately will make an appearance on Kenny Rogers and the first edition s Rollin on the River pro probably sometime late in january. Gayle Mccormick one time Lead Singer for Smith and now working As a Solo has been added to the three dog night show at the Arena feb.5. Miss Mccormick had a Fine 45 out recently it s a crying shame and providing that she arrives with a decent up band should get things off to a Good Start. Uncle Bruce played Santa on saturday but instead of passing out presents he spent the evening supplying free food to All of the patrons at the fireplace. If you missed it this time around Well there s always next year. The newest face in crw s lineup is Bob Gibbons not Don As i mistakenly reported last week. Bob s handling the 9 to 12 . Shift for the big 1470. Sorry about that Don or Bob. Who s next Why it s none other than next whose first album for Warner Brothers records will be unveiled tomorrow at a special reception in the rec room. Judg ing from the songs i be heard the group perform in recent months it should prove rather interesting. As someone who at one time depended greatly on hitching rides to get from place to place it distresses me to see How the once great Art of hitchhiking has been abused. Stories pop up occasionally describing in gory de Tail How some kind hearted soul picks up a hiker and is then either robbed or beaten for his efforts. Such incidents As isolated As they might be still leave a bad impression on everyone who tries to thumb rides. The result of course is that hitchhiking is now illegal in Many parts of the United states and Canada punish Able in most instances by stiff fines.
