p
aul Anka did two
things very few highly-
paid superstar en-
tertainers will do
nowadays.
He held an after-affair ses-
sion in which couples were
lined up to take photographs
with him . . . and wrote a
song for the organization, per-
mitting them to use the
music of his great "My Way?'
It was Michigan Cancer
Foundation's 50th anniver-
sary dinner at the Westin .. .
as a crowd of almost 1,200
came up with the evening's
record amount that hit over
$600,000.
MCF knows how to put on
an affair with dignity and
could give classes on having
a successful and enjoyable
fund-raising evening.
As befitting a golden an-
niversary, the outer foyer was
filled with gold-colored
balloons and touches of gold
were strewn about.
Inside, though, gold decor
was at a simplicity minimum
. . . Black tablecloths were
sprinkled with some gold
chips and gold stems came
out of the white and green
centerpieces.
The performance of Paul
Anka was solid gold . . . He
seems to be better today than
ever . . . and that $600,000
raised will help a lot of people,
plus do much in the excellent
MCF research workings that
have made such great strides
in the fight against cancer.
The organization's educa-
tion and patient care pro-
grams with free medical sup-
plies, etc., are known the na-
tion over . . . and of major im-
portance is the fact that al-
most all children with cancer
in the tri-county region who
need help at home receive it
through MCFs Home Care
Program, the first of its kind
in the country . . . This in
itself is worth the price of ad-
mission . . . helping these kid-
dies means an awful lot.
Many people look forward
to affairs put on by Michigan
Cancer Foundation . . . They
veritably ooze with class
elegance.
Each year, this fine group
grows even more in stature
. . . which is why it never
lacks for new faces at the
many tables.
Among the reasons it is
held at the Westin could be
because there are not too
many places that hold so
many people . . . The food and
service are par, but the
ballroom is big and beautiful
with a large outer foyer for
cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.
If the old Raleigh House
were still in existence, it pro-
bably would be well in the
running for this prestigious
event.
The pearls of wisdom and
jocular laugh-getters that
Leonard Simons is known to
evoke among audiences never
got a chance . . . he was one
of the honorees introduced
from the floor and given
special 50th anniversary com-
memorative awards for their
longtime MCF support . . .
Among other things, Leonard
was its first chairman of the
MCF's annual
dinner raised
$600,000.
board . . . On this evening he
joined Helen Zuckerman,
Lloyd Smith and Anna and
Harry Korman in receiving
the first-time-ever "MCF
Oscars."
One side of Olga Dworkin's
face will for a long time have
an invisible glow . . . That's
where Paul Anka kissed her
. . . Hubby Iry Dworkin, for
the time being at least, is
kissing Olga on the other
cheek.
No gents had the guts to
wear a gold tuxedo at the
black tie event and there were
a scant few lassies with gold
dresses, skirts or tops . . . Don
Canvasser attracted attention
with his conversation-piece
bow tie and bummberbund
Howard Camden wore a
white bow tie and black shirt
. . . So many people were in
black.
"My Way" by Paul Anka
was written for Frank
Sinatra, but the first time I
heard it was by Lennie Shick
at Angel's Hour Glass on W.
McNichols, west of
Southfield.
This was Michigan Cancer
Foundation's 50th anniver-
sary dinner and also its 11th
annual dinner . . . The first
one raised $40,000 . . . quite
a difference from $600,000.
Back in 1943, the Detroit
Institute of Cancer Research
began cancer-related ex-
periments in a basement
laboratory on the campus of
Wayne State University.
lbday, 1993, it celebrates 50
years of dedicated and
devoted service that has made
it one of the world leaders in
cancer research and a pioneer
in service and education
programs.
Michigan Cancer Founda-
tion has made us very proud.
THE MICHIGAN Delica-
tessen Association that
almost was, years back, may
get another chance by one of
the previous organizers, Al
Winkler of Pickle Barrel at
Evergreen Plaza on 12 and
Evergreen.
Al has never given up on
the fine idea that fell because
of so many individual desires
. . . however, the time now is
more ripe than ever before .. .
and formation would un-
doubtedly be very beneficial
. . . Group health insurance,
huge buying power, coopera-
tive advertising, etc . . . There
is always strength in
numbers and hopefully this
could be the year of that very
good idea, Michigan
Delicatessen Association .. .

IT'S TIME FOR the
Zipometer again . . . Fourth
annual clothing drive for the
homeless by Sheri Levenson
Stay, Lois Levenson and Julie
Feldman of Guys n' Gals in
Orchard Mall on Orchard
Lake Road . . . That big zipper
will be outside its store to
track the number of jeans col-
lected June 18 from 10 a.m. to
9 p.m. . . . Customers can
trade in old jeans (clean with
holes) for a new pair at half
the retail price . . . Clothing,
bedding, small furniture, etc.,
will again be accepted for
customer tax deduction
donations . . . Last year, the
homeless of Oakland County
received over 500 pairs of
jeans, plus hundreds of other
clothing items, thanks to
Guys n' Gals.
JAZZ NIGHT begins every
Monday evening, from 7:30
p.m. to 11:30 p.m. at Ex-
calibur on Franklin off Nor-
thwestern . . . It starts this
Monday with a weekly lineup
that features George "Star-
dust" Green on vocals and
drums, with his traditional
jazz quartet of Charlie
Gabriel, tenor sax and
clarinet, Johnny Griffith on
