THERE WERE so many
charity events held last
week, each trying to outdo
the other.

Certainly the swinging soiree
held last Friday evening probably
attracted the cream of the
busiress, social and financial
crop, including the world famous
heart surgeoa, Dr. Christian Bar-
nard. This was the ultra-
glamorous Face the World dinner
party fundraiser, hosted by the ir-
repressible Jacqui Cohen at her
Point Grey waterfront palace.

This was Jacqui’s second annual
Face the World fundraiser and
was graced with twice as many
VIP guests, so many, in fact, that
Jacqui had to build a platform
over her pool to accommodate
them and the crew from Umber-
to’s, who, under Chef Gianni,
created some of the tastiest lamb
and pasta dishes.

Cynthia Woodward in tailored
biack and white, Carol Lee in
seafoam green, Darcia Doman in
a short Theodora-dress a la the
Pepsi Uh-Huh girls, and Jacqui
who was gowned in a Bob Mackie
black chiffon, glittering with black
and silver bugle beads, greeted the
guests as they arrived.

Dr. Barnard was there as a
guest of the Properties’ Susie and
Harry Moll. He'd been in town
for business and pleasure, one of
which was a flying fishing trip to
the Queen Charlottes to Sonora
Lodge. He is quiet, obviously in-
telligent and very charming, ac-
cording to my spies.

Susie was in a white silk shan-
tung with a red geometric pattern
and covered with sparking se-
quins, her bubbly personality as

effervescent as the sparklers on
her fingers. Her finun-
cier-husband Harry had just cele-
brated his 50th birthday on a
three-hour cruise up Indian Arm
with some of his best pals like PR
man Jack Lee, banker Nick
Masse, Derek van Laare, Paddy
McCleery, Pat Claridge, Baron
Lee, Wally Dezura, Frank Ander-
son and Keith Anderson.

it was some party.

Beverley Hauff wore a full-
length, form-fitting strapless —-
but who noticed the dress? ft was
Beverley’s 115-carat cabuchon
emerald neckpiece tha! got
everyone's attention!

The Brinkhaus girls were there,
Gisella sporting a gorgeous black
opal necklace, Kim (ex-model
Kim Bonsall) flew in from Calgary
and Dale took time from her busy
Taffeta business to be there. They
were all beautifully bejewelled in
the latest Brinkhaus creations.

Their handsome-shared escort
was the cleft chinned George
Shmerholtz, the brilliant sculptor,
whose life-sized Killer Whale is
the focal point of the Canadian
Pavilion at Expo 92 in Seville,
Spain,

Soe and Dee Capozzi were on
hand with their son, Patrick, and
daughter-in-law, Robyn. Dee was
attired in a three-piece white crepe
de chine edged in silver while
Robyn dazzled in an em-
pire-waisted dress of black velvet.

Robyn and Patrick are antici-
pating a visit from the stork in
early August and Joe and Dee
have just moved from Vancouver
to a beachfront home in Point
Roberts.

Mayor Gordon Campbell and
his Nancy officially opened the
charity event. Nancy was gowned

,in a short-fitted green sequinned
dress with a backless back.

John and Rebecca MacKay en-
joyed the party. Rebecca, ina
black tulle evening gown by
Chanel, praised the designer’s
gown as the best fashion invest-
ment she has ever made.

Peter Thomas, who knew just
the right buttons to push, was the
evening's energetic auctioneer.

North Van’s Joanne and Arthur
Griffiths were there along with the
award-winning coach Pat Quinn
and several of his Canuck players.

The event was a fundraiser, in
large part, for the worthy Canuck
Place, the only freestanding
hospice for children in North
America.

Out-of-towners included dap-

per New York bachelor Keith
Lippert, Mark Zigner and Nicole
MacLaren. Nicole, daughter of
Sherrill and Woody MacLaren, is
a veterinarian opthamologist, who
is about to open her practice in
this area.

Mark Zigner, her beau, is in the
gem business and is buying an-
tque and estate jewelry here and
in Victoria. He likes our town so
much that he’s looking for a loca-
tion to build an L.A.-style restau-
rant.

Last guest to arrive just before
midnight was Super Mac, the head
of McDonald’s Canada, George
Cohon, who Mew in from Toron-
to. George gave a new meaning to
the phrase *‘fashionably late!”’

While all of the cheques aren't
in as yet, Jacqui’s Face the World
Foundation managed to raise ap-
proximately $135,000 for this
province’s needy projects...

My trip to Alaska last week
aboard the sleck and luxurious
Regal Princess couldn’t have been
better. And Alaska is breathtaking
in its quaint heritage, the hospi-
tality and friendliness of its peo-
ple, and its spectacular and rugged
pristine wilderness.

A number of North Shore resi-
dents joined me including North
Vai’s Bob and Ruby Thomas who
were celebrating their 42nd wed-
ding anniversary. There was also
Belvista's bridge player extraor-
dinaire, golfer par excellence and
a good friend, Winnie Wilkinson.
We had a ball!

My thanks to Capt. Cesare
Ditel and to West Van's Michael
Dreyer of Cruise Ship Centres.

And to all those important
gentiemen, a very happy Father’s
Day ... Cheers!
