MUSICAL FAMILY
HELP POLITICAL CAMPAIGN ONE-MAN NON-NAZI PARTY Mr John O’Carroll, candidate for West Sydney, will close his barber’s shop at Balmain and concentrate on his campaign, says a Sydney paper. He will put the following sign on the door: “Closed until September 23. If not at Canberra on that day I shall re-open the shop for business.” Mr O’Carroll, who is standing as leader of the one-man Non-Nazi Party, said that his wife and nine children will give him musical support. “They are all musicians,” he said “We have a harp, a violin, a ’cello and a flute in our family orchestra. “They will provide a musical atmosphere at my speeches, playing an accompaniment to suit the speeches. The theme song will be, ‘There’ll Always be an O’Carroll,’ to the tune of ‘There’ll Always be an England.’ We mean to have a cheerful campaign.”
Two of the O’Carrolls, a violinist and a harpist, appeared in Hamilton with Danny Malone, the Irish tenor, and since have been playing at Auckland and Wellington restaurants.
