Original Toronto Star caption: A powerful voice ina tiny frame, that's Melba Moore, who last night opened for two weeks at the Royal York Hotel's Imperial Room. Star staff writer Frank Rasky says her deceptive, shy appearance nowhere matches her energy. Versatility is remarkable and she cradles the crowd in the palm of her hand.
