Michael Frostick covers the motoring story of the week.

For more than six years now the Ladies' Prize in international rallies has been won - more often than not - by Rosemary Smith, a Dublin girl who gave up a career as a model to drive in the 1962 Monte Carlo Rally in a Sunbeam Rapier, and she shares with Pat Moss the distinction of being the only woman to win an international rally outright - the Dutch Tulip Event in 1965. Now at the peak of her professional career - both as a dress designer and a driver - Rosemary Smith was invited by the German Porsche team to drive their most successful car last week in Europe's toughest rally, the Coupe des Alpes.

Television's new Ice Show
Introduced by Ray Alan
featuring The Silvos, George Miller, Reg Park, Michel and Carol, Sally Ross, Janet Mahoney
The Ice Cabaret Dancers, The Fred Tomlinson Singers
Programme presented in association with Tom Arnold and Gerald Palmer
(The Silvos appear by arrangement with Churchill's Club, London)

When the first-ever TV ice show was produced long ago from Alexandra Palace the strength of the studio lights on the ice all day reduced it to water. One producer, remembering this incident, forecast the same catastrophe for the new series. Now, after three weeks, happily the ice still hasn't melted.
