Newspaper Page TextHoliday On Ice Opens In Macon on Jan. 22nd The 29th edition of Holiday on Ice opens on Wednesday, January 22, at the Macon Coliseum in Macon for a five-day engagement, ac claimed as “Holiday on Ice at its best.” Ever-new and ever-old, the show’s theme in 1975 is a “Spectrum of the 70’s”, offering a panoramic view of the contemporary skillfully intertwined with nostalgic reminders of the past, and even a glimpse or two of the future. There will be comedy, romance, beauty, thrills, and the wonderful music that has always been part of the magnificent pageantry. It’s over two hours of the finest in family entertainment. Six major production num bers, brilliant soloists and pairs, and the funniest clowns on ice will be featured in the all-new show. As the show opens, the precision Glamour-leers are spot-lighted in a fast-paced number titled “Sounds of the 70’s”, also featuring Rulona Rolland, Brigitte Voit, and Marc Leßel, skating to, a blend of contemporary sounds. They are followed by the “Double Daring” of anew pair team, Olympic star Doug Berndt and the lithe and lovely Patrice Leary. Next comes the sophisti cated ballroom dancing of “The Continentals,” Brigitte Wagner and Otto Hoke, who have a surprise in mind. Off to “Lake Ha-Ho”, where a merry band of Gorillas make mischief and Jackson Girls Continue Victory Skein After placing second in the Christmas tournament in Lamar County to end 1974, the Devilettes started 1975 with two more wins last week. Every player on the team contributed her share and gained a little more valuable experience and strength. Tuesday we met Lamar County and easily defeated them 57-18. Then on Friday we faced Mary Persons and found them to be a weak foe also, soundly whipping them 91-31. In this game Vickie Clark came within three points of breaking the J.H.S. individual scoring record for a single game. The Mary Persons game was one of the few strong starts the Devilettes have had this year, preferring to play strong second half basketball. However, in this game, our girls showed their superiority from beginning to end. Interestingly enough our Devilettes’ defense held both Lamar County and Mary FOR SALE CORN FED STEERS Ready For The Home Freezer These steers have been on com for six months.

Providing a thrill-a-second is Geary Baxter, leaping over barrels and through flaming hoops in a daring exhibition of acrobatics. Memories of the late A1 Jolson will sharpen as Patrick McKilligan recalls his greatness to the strains of “Mammy”. Sixteen adorable “Poodles de Paree” dance and prance to the clipped commands of master Gerald Soules, assis ted by Steve Schumacher. Carol and Clive Phipson, masters of the adagio and one of the most romantic couples in show skating, present their elegant inter pretation of “Speak Softly, My l,ove”. “Impressions” by Little Lito, a true master of the art of comedy, will have audien ces delightedly recognizing famous comics of bygone days. Closing the first half is “Make Your Own Kind of Music”, featuring a galaxy of stars, both on the ice and overhead in special lighting effects. Doug Berndt, Patrice Leary, and the Second Edition are featured against a background of music from the past thirty years. No one will want to miss a minute of the second-half opener, “The Happy Factory Caper”, a number for children of all ages. It’s a trip to a make-believe land of storybook characters and derring-do, featuring Barney Google’s famous nag, Spark plug, and his little friend Persons to only four points in the first quarter and four points in the second quarter, forcing each team to end the first half with only eight points. Showing even more strength in the third quarter, Lamar Cos. was granted a mere two points. We travel to Baldwin County this Friday night for our tenth win of the season. See you there ....

Sparkplug is portrayed by Michel Bagneris and Dennis Boyle. Then it’s an enchanting visit to “The World of Marc Leßel”, with the handsome star surrounded by four glamorous “Dream Girls” in breathtakingly beautiful cos tumes. Patrice Leary skated light and lively to the music from the stage and film hit, “Cabaret”. “Sounds In Motion” blends movement in music and on ice into futuristic counter point, with a stark black and white setting to set off the myriad talents of Rulona Rolland, Brigitte Voit, and Patrick McKilligan, suppor ted by the Glamour-leers. A stunning “Pas De Deux” presented by the Phipsons is simple poetry in motion. Little I-ito reappears for a “Sunday Afternoon in the Park”, with sidekicks Bri gitte Wagner and Michel Bagneris, just for fun. Music ranging from rock to country western and back again sets the stage for a rousing rendition of “Satur day Night, U.S.A.”, with a barn-dance setting showing off the precision movements of the famed Glamour-leers. The Swing Waltz couples “raise the roof” in a whirling display of the best dancing on ice, then are joined by the entire company for a finale that will have audiences whistling a tune and sorry to see the end of a wonderful evening.
