Specht Makes Most of Talent
AS Male Star of Ice Copudes

IL is no surprise that Bobby
Specht, the featured male per-
former of the Ice Capades show
opening Monday at Uline Arena,
is such q talented ice skating
star.
It was almost inevitable that
Bobby should find his career In
show Of this kind. His father
was prominent in college ath-
letics and his mother was an
actress. and it was expected from
Bobby's early days that he would
lean toward a career either In
sports or in the theater. The
Ice Capades combines features
of both sports and the theater,
and Specht's talents along both
lines are utilized fully
While still q youngster on
skates. Specht won district, State
and national junior titles, and
in 1912 he won the United States
national championship. He
turned pro after that, and il
one of the familiar favorites who
have made many previous ap-
pearances with the Ice Capades
| in Washington.
Donna Atwood. the feminine
star Of the show, is another
familiar fayorite, along with
such others as Orrin Markhus
and Irma Thomas, who will be
back with their Old Smoothies
routine; Larry jackson and
Bernie Lyman, q pair Of come
