The sparkling musical comedy and opera star, Patrice
Munsel, will be seen as La Mome Pistache in the lively
and colorful musical, “Can-Can,” when it is on stage at
the Music Hall in Dallas for fourteen performances,
July 8 to 20. Her earlier appearances for the Dallas Sum-
mer Musicals in^ “South Pacific," “The Merry Widow”
and "Kiss Me Kate” foretell an exciting performance,
both in the well-known Cole Porter songs but also as the
leader of the spectacular “can-can” dance. Co-starring
with Miss Munsel will he Robert Goss, also ail operatic
and musical comedy singer, with Suzanne Rogers, David
Rae Smith, William L. Massena, Stan Zareff, Ted Furlow,
Charles Herrick and Tony l)e Vicchi also in the cast.
In the past, these children
were considered! mentally re-
tarded. But their IQs may be
average or above; a preceptual
handicap or minimal brain
damage simply blocks their
learning processes.
Focusing on these children is
the 231000-member Association
for Children with Learning
Disabilities which will have its
international conference in Fort
Worth March 6-8.
Films, workshops, lectures
and clinics will cover the mod-
ern teaching methods that
break learning into a step-by-
step process and enable a child
to use ail of his senses. For
example, during a spelling les-
son. the child may “feel” the';*'
word written in sandpaper and
"walk out" each letter in giant
steps.
Physicians will report oru
brain wave tests and the mod-
ern drugs that calm a hyper-
active child and, thus, lengthen
ids attention span.
With proper education and
treatment, children with learn-
ing disabilities may become pro-
ductive adults, such as the
ACLD officer who had dyslexia
but now holds her Ph D.

in tribute to his magical words

as “My Heart Belongs to Dad-

“Night and Day,” “Wunderbar,”
"In the Still of the Night,” and
hundreds more. From “Can-
