Q THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, January 31, 1963 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN DON'S SHOWMANSHIP IMPROVES, DAD SAYS Don Jackson looked composed -- like the most composed person in the room. He is a trifle shy, but he is friendly, sincere. He knows how to get along with people. He had tried to sleep in his hotel room in the afternoon, but it didn't work out -- the phone kept ringing and when he took the receiver off there was a steady round of would-be visitors at the door, newspapermen, publicity agents and fans with autograph books, His day is a long one. There is usually a stiff one- hour practice session some- time after 10 a.m, This is followed by Press, Radio and Television interviews. He tries to get some sleep in the afternoon. There is always a late meal after the show be- fore retiring. This was late Monday af- ternoon at the Maple Leaf Gardens' special Press re- ception for members of the Shipstads and Johnson "Ice Follies" in which Don is one of the great stars. In three hours Don would be making his Toronto debut with the Follies. If he was nervous he didn't show it. He talked calmly and with deliberation as though there was nothing to be excited acundoactienuiaied about and he was just an- other member of the show instead of the key drawing card, the star. "Pon looks so refreshed. It's a wonder he is here to- night, so many people have been bothering him all day," said a newspaperman. Richard Dwyer, Don's 27-year-old co-star, best summar- ized what the Oshawa skater was going through as he awaited "the big moment." "The pressure has been mounting for Don for the past week and it won't let up until we leave Toronto," said Dwyer, a handsome Californian who has been in the Follies for 13 years. "You have to go through this sort of thing to know per- sonally what it really means," said Dwyer, "When I made my debut with the show before the home folks in Los Angeles and San Francisco I slept but little for weeks. I never held a World's Figure Skating Championship title, as does Don, but I know what the emotional problems of a star can be at such times. He will be out there every night, and at mati- nees, also, giving his best to satisfy the demands of the home folks, who can also be critical if things don't go just right. It's a really tough grind, but Don can handle it. He's a real champ." The Press visitors had broken into small groups inter- viewing the various stars. Don was given little rest as the social round continued. There were scores of questions ("How many hours do you sleep nightly ?" -- "Do you practise every morning ?"'). He tried to answer all with courtesy, thor- oughness, like a star should. There were also many pictures to be taken. Don was accompanied by a bevy of curvaceous Follies lovelies, including glamorous Ina Bauer, three times Figure Skating champion of West Germany who also stars in the show, Don fell in a double-turn close to the board in Monday night's debut, but otherwise his performance pleased most of the hard-boiled critics ("Jackson Shines in Follies," said the Toronto Star headlines). Writer David Cobb said: "Even te a non-skating eye and in a company of skating experts, he has a super-class. Everything he does looks rather better than anyone else, and his control and attack in his solo spot-- the only time he's on view except for the finale -- is for- midable and complete." The crowd was disappointing Mon- day night -- 5,180. Wrote Kay Kritzwizer of The Globe and Mail: 'More than 5,000 customers whistled, cheered, clapped -- and in the case of Oshawa's champion, Donald Jackson --. thumped the boards for the performers with the 27th. edition of Shipstads and Johnson Ice Follies. The 22-year-old stripling in Olympic blue rated his ovation. George Jackson of Oshawa, Don's father, thought his son looked good Monday both on and off the ice, "T think this is the best he has looked since competition," said Mr. Jackson, Sr., who attended Monday night with Don's mother, Pat. "Don really looked fit and ready, more so than at any time in the past,' said Mr. Jackson. 'He has lost that sallow look he had earlier in the tour. He has also acquired a lot of showmanship since he joined the Follies. This is in no small way due to people like Dick Dwyer, who help him in so many ways." Don hasn't missed a Follies performance since the cur- rent tour started last September 1 in Los Angeles, although he had a couple of "'close calls" in Chicago when he was down with the "flu". Several times he got out of a '"'sick"' bed to keep his perfect attendance record intact. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE General-manager George Slocombe of the Oshawa Flying Club is scheduled to return today from Calgary where he has been attending the annual convention of the Royal Cana- dian Flying Clubs Association since last Saturday. He was accompanied by Gordon Colter, Al. Wilson and D'Arcy Bell, executives of the Oshawa Club. . . . Don Jackson was guest star Monday night on two top Toronto television shows, Sports Folio and Front Page Challenge. "COLONEL SAM" IN GOOD HEALTH IN HAWAII Friends of Col. R. S. McLaughlin will be happy to hear that he is in "good health and spirits" in Hawaii where he will remain until the end of February. He will then return to his home in Bermuda until early May when he expects to return to Oshawa. Jack English, Colonel Sam's personal secretary, keeps sending Mr. McLaughlin news clippings of the severe cold spell "back home.'"' The latter was not impressed. He said 'the weather was "too warm" in Hawaii. COUNCIL STUDIES W-G REPORT For those who want speedy implementation of the more important recommendations of the Woods, Gordon Report -- a representative of the W-G firm met with several City Coun- cillors last Thursday night. This was done on the recommendation of Mayor Lyman Gifford to allow members of Council an opportunity to ask pertinent questions and get official interpretations of the Report and its intent, according to the authors. This get-together should help to "clear the air" on some of the more complex W-G recommendations. It would be difficult in a report of this length to spell everything out letter-perfect, hence such seminars should be constructive for there will also be a special Council meeting this week to consider the Report further. .

The nuclear squabble raised the question in authoritative quarters here today whether re- visions will have to be made in the joint Canada-U.S. air de- fence system. A U.S, authority said the situ- ation is fluid, The U.S. still is willing to renew negotiations with Canada, providing the Ot- tawa government shows readi- hess to reach a_ concrete custody-and - control agreement under which U.S. warheads could be stored in Canada for use by Canadian missile and jet forces. If no such agreement emerges U.S. authorities would take an- other look at the established North American air defence system commanded by an American with a Canadian as his deputy. The possibility loomed that the Canadian posi- tion would be downgraded or save alf 14 crewmen aboard. --AP Wirephoto via radio from Tokyo WASHINGTON (CP) -- The United States is seeking to im- prove its North American bomb alert system on the assumption that the main Soviet missile and bomber threat still comes from the Arctic, Defence Secretary) Robert McNamara says. | McNamara told a_ congres- sional armed services commit- tee Wednesday he doubts the Russians would attempt a sneak antarctic missile attack because this would reduce the missiles' atomic payload and accuracy. come, the main thrust would be} across the frozen arctic wastes, sweeping down on Canada and the U.S. on a route along which iles 2 huge ballistic warning system that would provide an "adequate" 15-minutes' warn-| ing time before the missiles) reached their targets. Arctic radar surveillance is to be continued and strength- ened and the bomb alert sys-| tem is to be improved so that the North American air de- fence system centred on Color- ado Springs, Colo., would know automatically where the eremy warhead landed and the yield and height of the burst. This would provide more information about the possible radiation spread.

The U.S. -will seek to establish a similar kind of semi-automatic 'back-up for NORAD interceptor command and control. Dealing with other continental land North Atlantic defence de- velopments, McNamara made these other points: 1, Bomare anti-aircraft mis- siles--which cost the U.S, about $2,000,000,000--have only a lim- ited life. These weapons suffer the same "defects" as manned The Pentagon therefore con-linterceptors -- vulnerability to cludes that if an attack shculd/pallistic missile attack. But be- cause the U.S. has already paid for its eight Bomarc sites, the Bomarc system will be contin- ued for "several years." Can- ada has two Bomare squadrons, but no nuclear warheads for them. 2. The U.S. likely will make a decision next year whether to build a mew and more advanced manned interceptor. General John Gerhart, NORAD com- mander, has asked for a new plane that can fly at least 2;000 miles an hour, with a range of some 1,500 miles. SEEKS DIVORCE NASHVILLE, Tenn.

Canada has two Bomarc-B squadrons, A-Arms Split Contended In Cabinet OTTAWA (CP)--Paul Martin (L--Essex East) contended in the Commons Wednesday--for the third straight day -- that there is a division within the cabinet on the nuclear weapons issue, He brought up the matter this time by asking Defence Minis- iter Harkness to table the min- ister's statement of Monday which, Mr. Martin says, contra- dicts the government's defence policy as outlined last Friday by Prime Minister Diefeabaker. Mr. Harkness said Mr. Martin has seen the statement but that he would be glad to send him a copy if he wanted another. Mr. Martin said privileges of the Commons were involved in one of the most important mat- ters facing the. government. Mr. Harkness had not participated in the Commons defence debate but had issued a press state- ment afterwards to interpret Mr. Diefenbaker's speech. Mr.' Martin added that Mr |Harkness' statement was of INTERPRETING THE NEWS Pressure Need For Test-Ban By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer Canada and other smaller powers may have to exert intensified pressure and persua- sion if they expect Russia and the United States to end their differences and sign a nuclear test-ban treaty. Amid various public expres- sions of optimism about the future of these private negotia- tions, a well-informed Western diplomatic source suggests cau- tion in predicting the outcome of the Washington and New York talks.
