He said he believed that Tommy was a fine actor* and auite frankly, a fine young singer* too, who could soon be m the Frank Sinatra class. The predictions oi tbis executive are certainly coming true. Tommy Sands toured Australia and New Zealand recently and broke every attendance record previously set by visiting American artists. In Sydney, alone, 80,000 people Jam* med the Sydney Stadium for six performances. Tbis included teen hundred standees, and, since the houses were full to capacity, another four thousand a day were turned away. It was one of the greatest triumphs any star has ever experienced, and, almost with- out fail, every newspaper critic hailed Sands as a mature, talented performer with few peers. The young singing idol's career has been taking new and exciting turns recently. He has embarked on a night club career, adding one more facet to a career which in- cludes recordings, motion pictures, television, radio, personal appear- ances, song writing and acting. Starting his career at the tender age of eight years, on radio sta- tion KWKH in Shreveport, Louis- iana, Tommy finally was audition- ed by the Kraft Television Thea- tre producers, who were seaching for a young man who would sing, play the guitar and act, in a forth- coming script called ?╟úThe Singing Idol" and, on the fateful night of Jan, 80, 1087, found himself be- fore the cameras, where he was a great success. Tommy Sands has already achiev- ed in a few short years what the California executive predicted, that one day he would become ?╟úone of the greatest stars in show busi- ness." There will be two shows nightly, 9:30 P.M. and 12:15 A.M. Cindy Bobbins, a dazzling blonde, who has been dubbed the ?╟úChampagne Girl" because of the color of her hair which she gashes with the bubbly brew, is in New York to promote ?╟úThis Earth of Mine,?╟Ñ in which she makes her film debut, appearing with Book Hudson, Jean Simmons, Dorothy McGuire and Claude Bains, open- ing in late June at the Roxy Thea - tre .., New Year's Eve tickets for ?╟úDestry Rides Again,?╟Ñ new musical comedy hit co - starring Andy Grif- fith, Dolores Gray and Scott Brady, are how available at the Imperial Theatre box office... .The Luau- 400 Restaurant is distributing in- formation pamphlets on Hawaii to touristg who plan to fly to the fiftieth State for Hawaii^ cele- bration of Kamehameta Day on June II .,r Val Sorvino* the 6*- 3?╟Ñ Italian singer, who enthralls ! audiences with romantic songs, is ] fulfilling a successful engagement in the Golden Thread Room of the Hotel New Yorker, backed by the musical background of the Greene and Res Trio ...
