Coming in to town tomorrow
are two of Hollywood's hottest
properties, Double 007 star, Sean
Connery, and the enigmatic Roy
Scheider. They‘Il be here to star in
the movie thriller, Russia House.
Some of the location sites for that
movie are rumored to be on the
North Shore...

Tickling those ivories to a

sell-out crowd at the Cen-

tennial Theatre recently

Ze was music man Frank
Mills.

Pianoman Frank Mills was sim-
ply delighted with the sold-out
house at North Van’s Centennial
Theatre last week. He's been on a
16-city tour and was feeling a bit
tired, but the audience response
was all he needed to put on an
excellent evening of entertain-
ment.

He’s made his home in the
Bahamas for a few years now, and
he also has a farm in Vermont, but
he does like to get back to Canada
at least once a year. And he loves
our West Coast, especially the
rainy days because, as he said,
“They're so refreshing!’ Oh!

August. She plans on being back
in front of the cameras by January.

Cecelia was emcee for the lun-
cheon and fashion show that was
arranged by UNICEF's Shirley
Briggs of the North Shore, and the
fabulous fashions were from
Marilyn Diligenti’s Champagne
Taste in West Van. The red-head-
ed Marilyn looked as good as her
fashions, in a cream-colored
maternity pant suit.

She's the wife of Carlos Dili-
genti, one of the famous Argenti-
nian quintuplets, and they have
five sons of their own. ranging in
age from 11 to 20.

Marilyn’s delighted to be preg-

well. She’s had all the tests, the
new baby’s fine, and, according to
the doctors, the item is that this
time, it’s a girl!...
