and singer from Texas whose song was a hit in 1959. The two men
were born 10 months apart --
McADOREY in 1935, Holly in 1936
and actually met in the mid-1950s when Mr.
McADOREY was a
disc jockey in Guelph, Ontario, and the singer was on a tour
of Canada.
"His job was to introduce Buddy Holly at a concert at Kitchener.
When he went on stage, the crowd went wild, and Bob though 'Gee,
I didn't know I was this popular,' " remembered his sister Pat
RUSSELL. "Of course, they thought he was Buddy Holly."
For decades, Mr.
McADOREY was the entertainment commentator on
Global Television; he retired less than five years ago. But in
an earlier era, he was a household name in Southern Ontario.
In 1960, just a few months after Buddy Holly died in a plane
crash in 1959, his look-alike joined Toronto's
CHUM.
Almost overnight,
Bob McADOREY became the top disc jockey at
CHUM, the No. 1 rock
station in the country. He was astonished when the station paid
him what he was asking for -- $7,200 a year (about $50,000 in
today's money, according to the Bank of Canada's inflation calculator).
"Bob McADOREY, whose face is as well known in Toronto as Mayor
Givens, has the most power to dictate what pop music Ontario
teens listen to," wrote the Toronto Telegram in 1966.
Not only was he the on-air man in the key 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. slot,
he was also the music director. He chose the records the other
six disc jockeys played. He and the other disc jockeys decided
on CHUM's
Top 10, which sent kids to record stores to buy records
with a big hole in the middle and a song on each side. They spun
at 45 revolutions a minute and were called 45s.
"He alone commands what goes on the hit parade in Canada," wrote
The
Globe's
Blake
KIRBY in 1968. "Middle-aged squares who run
record stores use the
CHUM chart, the weekly list of what
McADOREY
is playing and plugging as a buying guide."
Along the way, he shared the footlights with such big-name visitors
as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
The CHUM hit parade made records such as The Unicorn by the Irish
Rovers. Mr.
McADOREY, a sentimental Irish-Canadian, pushed the
record, which sold 140,000 copies in Canada and a million in
the United States. But he didn't like everything on the
CHUM
chart. It was a business, after all.
"We're playing records here which I just can't bear to listen
to, but I wouldn't let that influence what goes on the air,"
Mr. McADOREY once told The Globe and Mail. His sister said that
when he went home after work, he was so sick of rock 'n' roll
that he put earphones on and listened to classical music.
Like many successful big-city disc jockeys, Mr.
McADOREY also
ran dances on the weekends -- events with such names as Bob McAdorey's
Canadian Bandstand or Canadian Hopville. He and a couple of other
disc jockeys owned a company called Teen Scene Ltd., which put
on dances in towns all over Southern Ontario.
After a long spell on
CHUM,
Bob
McADOREY either was too old --
he was well into his 30s -- or too tired, and so he suddenly
found himself fired. Unlike the regular corporate world, where
people resign, in radio they are just plain sacked. Disc jockeys
almost wear it as a badge of honour.
"There are no hard feelings," he told an entertainment writer
in 1972 after he had been sacked from
CFTR following a stint
at CFGM. "I was told that it was either the station's new music-and-contests
format or me." Within days, he had rejoined radio station
CFGM.
A few years later, he morphed into television. No one told him
that radio types, from the hot side of the Marshall McLuhan equation,
are not supposed to be able to make the switch to the cool world
of television. He perched on his stool in 1973 and performed
for about 27 years.
Bob McADOREY was born within earshot of the Niagara Falls. His
father worked as a machinist on the railway and the whole family
lived near both the tracks and the roundhouse at Niagara Falls,
Ontario
For the rest of his life, Mr.
McADOREY maintained a love
affair with trains and rode them at every opportunity.
He went to high school at Stamford Collegiate. An Irish Catholic,
he was one of two non-Protestants in the class. The other was
Barbara FRUM, later the host of The Journal and
As It Happens
on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The two would spend the
religious class in another room, enjoying their time off.
In Grade 12, Mr.
McADOREY started work at the local radio station,
doing a program in the early morning before class. "One day,
the station manager told me to go on air and do the play-by-play
of a local baseball game," he told the Toronto Star in 2000.
"I didn't know the players' names and I didn't know much about
baseball, so I sat in the bleachers and interviewed the spectators
and it seemed to work."
After that, he was hooked. For a time, he worked all over --
including radio station
CJDC in remote Dawson's Creek, British
Columbia
Even then, he was fairly outrageous. "
CJDC had access
to Canadian Broadcasting Corporation feeds," he said in 2000.
"But nobody monitored us, so we sold everything -- the one o'clock
time signal to a jewellery store, the Queen's Christmas Message
brought to you by Sammy's Bar and Grill."
But it was soon after he had moved to Guelph, Ontario, that things
really began to happen and he hit the big time at the age of
24 by working for
CHUM.
Though he may have been at the top of the pop game in the Toronto
of the sixties, he also became a national figure at Global as
it expanded from a base in Southern Ontario to become the country's
third network. He never applied for a job in television, it was
just chance.
Bill CUNNINGHAM, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation foreign
correspondent brought in to run Global News, hired him after
he saw him speak during a tour of the new television station.
At the time, Mr.
McADOREY was working for Alan
SLAIGHT, a prescient
broadcaster who had run
CHUM, bought
CFGM and was one of the
early owners of Global. Mr.
CUNNINGHAM's plan was to lighten
up the newscast and hire a kind of humourist-commentator. Thus,
Mr. McADOREY covered entertainment and did light pieces for the
newscast, heading out with a cameraman to find what he could.
Once, during an Air Canada strike, he drifted out to Toronto's
Pearson International Airport and happened to find Terminal 2
entirely deserted. The scene made irresistible camera fodder.
The pair had time to erect an impromptu bowling alley and roll
a few balls before the party was broken up by patrolling policemen.
The show was an enduring success. It helped that Mr.
McADOREY
was good-looking, possessed a great voice and was totally unaffected
and unpretentious. Behind the scenes, though, Global was in turmoil
and not just financially.
The network kept trying to reinvent itself. One idea was to bring
in an untried newsreader, Suzanne
PERRY, who was one of Pierre
TRUDEAU's press aides and whose son, Matthew
PERRY, went on to
fame in the sitcom Friends. Sadly, Ms.
PERRY was put on air before
she was ready and that experiment failed.
A short while afterward, the network tried something called News
at Noon, with Bob
McADOREY doing entertainment, Mike
ANSCOMBE
the sports, and John
DAWE, business. The three of them joked,
made fun of each other, and did and said things you weren't supposed
to see on television. All of a sudden, they had a huge audience,
unheard of at that time of day.
"We broke new ground with 300,000 viewers at noon," said business
reporter John
DAWE. "
Then it expanded and we did the 5: 30 news
as well. We worked together for 14 years."
As he matured, Mr.
McADOREY lost his Buddy Holly looks. Instead,
he was often mistaken for another famous person with glasses
and a mass of curly hair -- Ken
TAILOR/TAYLOR, the Canadian ambassador
to Iran who sheltered American colleagues during the 1979-80
hostage crisis.
At Global, the news department kept trying new things and new
people, though the on-air staff remained pretty much the same.
One producer didn't like the jocular format. And Mr.
McADOREY
didn't like him. He rebelled by being provocative on air.
"It's Friday, and I didn't really feel much like working today.
The boss is out of town so I took it easy this afternoon, stretching
out in my office, reading and daydreaming," he began his part
of the 6 p.m. newscast on April 8, 1983. It got him fired.
"Unprofessional and insulting to the viewers," read the note
from his pompous producer. The viewers thought otherwise. Phone
lines buzzed and letters landed on all the right desks. Two weeks
later, the producer was fired and Bob
McADOREY was rehired.
As host of Entertainment Desk from 1991 to 1997, he guided it
through many lively segments. Among the most memorable was the
appearance of comedienne Judy Tenuta. "[She] pretty well took
over the show, which bothered some viewers but not me," he once
said. "Her wild style made for bizarre television. Most of the
interview was done with Judy sitting on my lap making semi-lewd
comments."
For all that, he never did like producers. At the time of his
retirement in July, 2000, Andrew
RYAN of The Globe and Mail asked
him what advice he would give to aspiring young entertainment
journalists. "Producers are dorks, actors are jerks," Mr.
McADOREY
answered. "The only ones worth talking to are directors."
Having been asked to retire, he said he had no expectations of
a gold watch. Rather, "how about a gold boot up the butt? Retirement
was not my idea. I always thought I had a few more good years
left."
Instead, he chose to retire quietly at his home in Niagara-On-The-Lake,
Ontario His main hobby was reading and he was something of an
authority on James Joyce. An Irish nationalist, he had a lifelong
obsession with the great Dublin writer.
Robert Joseph
McADOREY was born in Niagara Falls, Ontario, on
July 24, 1935. He died on February 5 at St. Catharines, Ontario
He was 70 and had suffered prolonged illness. He is survived
by daughter Colleen, sister Pat and brother Terry. He was predeceased
by his wife and by two of three children.

VAISEY in 1961 and Lawrence
GENSER in 1997

CORNE, and their
children (Marion's great-grandchildren) Yale and Serena

Ariel, Liav and Neeve
SLAMA, and Ira
CORNE; and by her step-son
Steven GENSER.
Marion was born to Florence and Dolph
BERRYHILL
in Winnipeg on April 3, 1929. She graduated with a B.Sc. from
the University of Manitoba in Home Economics in 1949 and
an M.Sc.
in Nutrition from McGill University in 1951. She went on to teach
in Halifax, Corvallis and Guelph before joining the University
of Manitoba's Home Economics Faculty (now Human Ecology) in 1965
where she taught and did research using sensory methods to evaluate
foods such as canola oil. She joined the administration of the
University in 1980 as Associate Dean of Graduate Studies and
served as the Associate Vice President, Research from 1983-91.
She published many papers and received a number of awards throughout
her career. After her retirement in 1993, she was honoured with
Senior Scholar and Professor Emeritus status. Elegant and erudite,
sharp witted and well spoken, successful professionally and charming
personally, Marion was an inspiration. She worked gladly to further
causes as diverse as women in the sciences and Canadian food
products. She served on national science committees and even
appeared on Korean television to promote flax seeds for her beloved
prairie provinces. She loved her family, playing cards, and ending
the day with a nice bowl of vanilla ice cream with chocolate
sauce or - joy! - raspberries from the garden. We will all miss
her terribly. A memorial service will be held in Winnipeg at
1: 00 p.m. on Saturday, October 29th at Saint John's College Chapel,
92 Dysart Rd. A reception is to follow in the Cross Common Room.
Parking is available across the street. In lieu of flowers, and
