| PAGE TEN THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Major Prizes Captured By Canadians Chicago, Nov. 30. --- (CP)--Cana- dian. exhibitors in livestock classes at the International Livestock Ex- position and grain and Hay Show today set out to add to champion- ships already captured. Met Opening Successful New York, Nov. 30.--(AP)-- The crowd turned out at the 66-year-old Metropolitan Opera Huse Monday night to hear opera and, perhaps, to observe a gala tradition. They heard--and they saw. A couple of hundred others at- tended the opening of the New York opera season, too. They came to be seen--and it scarcely seemed worth by an oversize scarf--almost a stole --of white fox. The crowd cheered and applaud- ed as the president's daughter en- tered. Mrs. Betty Henderson, elderly stormy petrel who last year enliven- ed bar proceedings by being photo- graphed with her leg ona table, was greeted wildly. *She had a fan- tastic headdress which included Mme. Mompadour curls, but con- ducted herself with considerable de- corum during her three-act occu- panéy of a table in the bar. The one social casualty was re- vealed by Mrs. Spencer Auguste, who was accompanied by film and stagé actor John Loder. She an- nounced that she'd lost a ring which she said was insured for $22,000. The gala opening represented a triumph in the face of adversity. Several months ago it looked as though financial difficulties would keep the old cpera house closed tight. Director Jonnson, who comes from Guelph, Ont. was therefore in a particularly happy mood. With him in his box were George Drew, leader of Canada's Progressive Con- servative party and Mrs. Drew. Mrs. Drew is Johnson's daughter. Consensus was that, from the standpoint of good music, good style-show and good deportment, it was the best opening in years, CAPTURE SUSPECTS Toronto, Nov, 30.--(CP)--A dozen police cars converged Monday on the west-end Bathurst and Bloor inter- section to capture four men--one of them from Windsor--suspected of stealing radios. Police said the four are wanted in suburban Mimico where they are alleged to have en- tered radio shops and, while one member tngaged the owner in con- versation, walked out th small mantel radios. JACKSON (Junior) all the effort. The new season marked an im- portant milestone in music, too, for television carried the annual page- ant to a living-room and tavern audience estimated at 2,000,000-- most 0. whom never glimpsed the color-filled stage from a house seat. Tt vas a highly-jewelled and ex- cited audience which flocked to see Verdi's "Othello," a sombre tale of murder and suicide. Some veteran opera-goers said the choice of the heavier opera Was de- liberate--to discourage between- the-acts bar shenanigans which had stolen headlines in past years. Ear- lier director Edward Johnson had appealed to the press to ignore publicity -seeking exhibitions. Whatever the reason, it was an opening almost totally without in- cident, other than the arrival of ce- lebrities in the glare of television floodlights and the flash of photo- graphers' bulbs. First-night regulars-- society peo- ple, stage and opera personalities-- started to arrive shortly before 8 p.m.. But the climax was reached for the bystanders when Margaret Truman made her appearance 10 or 15 minutes after the opera had arted. hr was smiling and pretty in a full, draped dress of white silk, whose modest decollete was broken | NOTICE A 1450-pound cherry - and - red dappled Canadiay Shorthorn bull-- Scotsdale Bombadier--was placed first ahead of a hard of American- bred animals to take the grand championship of his class Monday. The grand championship won by the herd sire of S. G. Bennett of Georgetown, Ont., brings four ma- jor titles to Canada so far in the eight-day show. Although the barley crown was taken back to the United States by J. P. Westein of Joliet, Mont., vir- tually all other prize-winners in the class were Canadians. Elmo Patterson of Coshocton, O., was crowned rye king. The title, although won by L. L. Anderson of Fargo, N.D. last year, went to W. S. Simpson of Dawson Creek, B.C. | in 1946 When Judge Enrique Santamar- ina, one of Argentina's leading Shortmorn breeders, placed the Ca- nadian bull at the head of the line, a mantle of roses, ferns and carna- tions was thrown around Scotsdale Bombardier's neck. Santamarina, who indicated the champion with two quick slaps on his heavy rump, described him as "harmonious." " ,.. It stands well, is of deep structure ,and) has a certain style. This animal is a great walker; it's not unco-ordinated, It's level across the backline." Traditionally the - corn-growing crows went to Americans--this year to a father and son. Newton Hal- termon of Rushville, Ind., in the rich corn belt, was named king and his 12-year-old son, Lair, Prince.
