## Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This flaccid tear-jerker scarcely fulfils the promise implicit in the rousing version of "Let the Good Times Roll" which accompanies the credits. In the face of the gimcrack script, Paul Henreid's anonymous direction can do little to disguise the banality of theme, characters and situations. Unconvincing settings and backgrounds ... uneasy handling of crowd scenes and extras, and some self-conscious small-part playing add to the air of disjointed aimlessness, and most of the lively moments come from Ray Charles and his band. ... Charles has an undeniable authority and panache and gives a striking demonstration of the art of revitalising clichés, only occasionally sinking into his most lachrymose vein."
Kine Weekly wrote: "Ray Charles ... surely deserves more intelligent treatment from his scriptwriter than he gets here. If the story had been merely a functional peg on which fo hang the star's musical expertise it would not have mattered, but the saccharine tale of little blind David is given considerable prominence, and the child aotor, Piers Bishop, has been coached to tearjerking extremes. ...There is, however, a pretty good ration of Ray Charles, his orchestra, the Raelets and some typical songs, of which "Unchain My Heart" is a real toetapper. Ray Charles may be no great shakes as an actor, but he certainly shows his talent in his own field."

# Dave Coyne

David Coyne (born 31 March 1958) is a British racing driver.
Coyne was a rising star in Formula Ford, finishing 5th in the Formula Ford Festival in 1980 at age 22. In 1981 he moved up to the British Formula Three Championship and finished 20th while competing in only three races.

In 1987 he won the revived European Formula Three Championship which consisted of four races. He also returned to the Formula Ford Festival for the first time since 1984. Coyne bounced around various F3 series until 1990 when he finished 4th in the British Formula Renault Championship and won the Formula Ford Festival at the age of 32 (the race is usually won by much younger drivers). The win re-sparked his career a bit as he competed full-time in British Formula 3000 in 1991, finishing 5th. His professional career ended in 1993 after he finished 9th in British Formula Renault. He had been set to drive in the last five races of the 1993 Formula One season for Pacific but the team's decision to defer entry until 1994 ended the deal.
Coyne returned to racing in 2005 racing a MTec built Superstox on the short oval tracks. His first win in the class came at the 2005 Spedeweekend.

# Neil Fraser (civil servant)

Neil Fraser (born c. 1934) is a Canadian former civil servant who came to prominence for his crusade against the Metric system of weights and measures in the early 1980s, which resulted in him being fired from his post in the Department of National Revenue on February 23, 1982.

## Legal battle

Fraser fought his dismissal with the Public Service Staff Relations Board in April 1982, but the board ruled that his dismissal was justified. He appealed the board's decision to the Federal Court of Appeal, who dismissed his appeal in November 1982. Fraser then appealed this decision to the Supreme Court of Canada. The Court dismissed Fraser's appeal, agreeing that while public servants are allowed to express some degree of government criticism, it is possible to go so far as to impair the ability to do the job properly. The Court stated that Fraser's criticisms took on a "vitriolic tone, even to the point of being vicious" and he refused to stop.

## Candidate for 1983 Progressive Conservative leadership

To promote his campaign against the Metric system, he ran as a candidate for the leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada at the 1983 leadership convention.
Fraser's campaign had no visible followers. Granted the same nationally televised 25 minutes as the other candidates for his convention address, Fraser engaged in a bizarre speech that likened Confederation to a blood transfusion to Quebec. Lise Bissonnette commented that if the speech had been heard on Radio-Canada, it would have set the Tories' Quebec efforts back 10 years. He finished last, with five votes.

# Albert Southworth

Albert Sands Southworth (1811–1894) operated Southworth & Hawes daguerreotype studio with Josiah Johnson Hawes (1808–1901) from 1843 to 1863.

## Biography

Southworth was a student of Samuel F.B. Morse, who, in addition to his other more famous pursuits, was an avid daguerreotypist. The partnership's studio, located on the top floor of a Boston building, had enormous skylights to allow in copious amounts of light necessary for relatively "short" exposures of portraits of their subjects. While they worked in formats ranging from the more common locket-sized daguerreotype, up to a stereoscopic image (also gaining in popularity at the time), they specialized in "whole plate" images, an expensive size which measured 6+1⁄2 by 8+1⁄2 inches (17 cm × 22 cm)—rather large for a daguerreotype. Lawmaker Daniel Webster, author Harriet Beecher Stowe, and reformer Dorothea Dix were among the duo's more prominent clients, but they also photographed local businessmen, society ladies, and other Boston-area citizens.
Southworth & Hawes were not alone: Masury & Silsby, and also John Adams Whipple were prominent Boston daguerreotypists. Whipple's and Southworth & Hawes's operations were the largest in Boston, and were outshone in America (after 1853) only by the New York studios of Mathew Brady and M.M. Lawrence.
In what could perhaps be called the ancestor of the View-master, Southworth & Hawes invented a "grand parlor stereoscope", which allowed viewers to be presented with new daguerreotype views with the turn of a crank. Southworth & Hawes had one of these devices in the reception room of their gallery for the entertainment of their customers.
After wet-process plate printing came into vogue, Southworth also invented a device in 1855 that allowed up to eight exposures of the same sitter to be made in just two sequential exposures: by exposing half of a whole plate with a special four-lensed set of tubes, then moving the other half of the plate into place, the other half of the plate was then exposed.

# District Council of Laura

The District Council of Laura was a local government area in South Australia. It was created on 1 May 1932 with the amalgamation of the Corporate Town of Laura and the District Council of Booyoolie. It reunited the whole cadastral Hundred of Booyoolie within the same district council, as had previously been the case when the Booyoolie council was first proclaimed in 1876. The Laura merger had occurred after a much broader 1931 merger proposal, which would have seen the Corporate Town of Laura, District Council of Gladstone, Corporate Town of Gladstone and District Council of Caltowie merge into a drastically enlarged District Council of Booyoolie, was abandoned after meeting strong opposition from both the Laura and Gladstone communities.
The council chambers were initially located in the Laura Town Hall, which had formerly been the Laura Institute. It was divided into six wards, each electing one councillor: East Laura, North Laura and West Laura Wards in Laura itself, and South (later Pine Creek), Stone Hut and Whyte Cliff Wards in the rural areas. The council area had a total population of 1,062 persons in 1936. The earlier town hall was replaced by a new Civic Centre in 1968. Amongst the council's later projects was a 1980s-era collaboration with the South Australian Housing Trust to build a number of pensioner cottages in the town. The council ceased to exist on 1 May 1988 when it merged with the District Council of Georgetown and the District Council of Gladstone to form the short-lived District Council of Rocky River.
