nicely and continually courts
personal disaster with awe-in-
spring zest and flair. She leaves
the customers gasping, which
makes 1t definitely and literally
a breathtaking performance.
Among the others, Sandy
Culbertson displays both talent
and a sparkling personality
and Bobby Specht skillfully
demonstrates again the mas
terry that has made him a long
time favorite. Alan Konrad adds
some more dazzling skating and
the Old Smoothies return for
their customary huzzahs.
Comedy in any Ice Capades
show is elemental and as un-
sophisticated as everything else
about it. 1t leans heavily on
slapstick, and jovially threatens
rinksiders with bodily harm,
Much of it is very funny and
almost all of it seemed to de-
light at least the younger ele-
ment in last nights audience,
Head man among the funsters
on skates seems to be Freddie
Trenkler, back after a two
year absence and clearly the
object of many an Ice Capades
fans affection. Mr.. Trenkler is
an expert at diving over the
railing into the audience with
out really manning a single
customer.
Eric Waite brings off some
first rate comedy in this spe-
cial Ice Capades manner, too,
impersonating the most improb-
able Sleeping Beauty you ever
saw, on or off skates. John La
brecque is another of the
troupe's able clowns.
Ice Capades will be on view
at the coliseum through Feb
ruary 7. If you are partial to
this sort of thing, you'll find it
an abundantly entertaining and
lavish spectacle. If. on the other
hand, you feel that when you've
seen one ice show you've seen
them all, welcome to the club.

imagination on dreaming UP
characters not nearly so ap-
pealing to the small fry as
those Disney already has
dreamed UP. It also saves the
expense Of hiring a composer
to do a musical score that
wouldn't top Tchaikowsky's
Fifth Symphony. the Sleeping
Beauty" ballet, Liszt's Hun
garian Rhapsody" and an as
sortment Of Lerner-Loewe hits.
This, Of course. may be what
allows Producer John H. Harris
to spend all that money on
costumes and If it is he is
ON the right track. He has
come up with another Ice Ca
pades extravaganza that falls
beguilingly on eye and ear.
- #a*
Its most exciting star prob
ably is Cathy Machado, though
If you favor somebody else in
the populous cast, you're en-
titled. Miss Machado, at any
rate, is a figure skater of spec
tacular accomplishment, who
manages some obviously diff
cult maneuvers with ease and
grace. Even an ice show Scrooge
has to warm to her demon
stration of what a high art
skating can be.
Some further excitement is
contributed by Cathy Steele and
Phil Romayne, who may very
easily be the greatest adagio
performers on anybody's ice
right now. He does some things
on skates that any number of
dancers wouldn't try on dry
land and handily shows off his
partners style and technique.
Miss Steele compliments him

Were you thankful for your
turkey
For your mince or pumpkin
pie,
And all your bounteous blessings
That heaped your table high?
Were you thankful for your
country
This land so great and fair,
And for your chance to do your
part
For people everywhere?
We're you thankful for the
little things
That make each day so bright
For fun and friends and fellow
ship
And things that turn out
right?
Then, while you're telling
happy
And at peace with all, by
chance,
Come out and join the happy
folk
At our THANKSGIVING Dance"
