I enjoy reading your magazine, but I think that your writers should do their historical research more carefully. In the April issue, it is mentioned that Dorothy Dandridge was the first black woman to win Best Actress at the Oscars. Unfortunately, the award went to the equally talented Grace Kelly. A black woman has never won Best Actress. Hopefully that
will be resolved in the near future.

Dear Tribute,
(Re: Return To Me Contest)
As your magazine is distributed in theaters in Manitoba, and the movie Return to Me opened
nationwide April 7th, would you please explain to me why only certain cities were eligible to enter this contest?
I enjoy reading your magazine and look forward to entering any contests that appear in the magazine.

Editor's note: This particular contest offered tickets to special advanced screenings running only in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa. In this situation, the passes are only good for the residents of those cities.
Tribute and Tribute.ca have many more film
contests that offer "run of engagement" passes valid across Canada. We hope you will continue to enter these contests.
Dear Tribute,
While looking at your April 2000 issue we noticed in the "His Style" section on page 34, you state that the person in the bottom right corner is Seth Green when in actuality we have no idea who this person is. However, we do know that it's not him and we
are curious as to who this fine young gent is!

Editor's note: Oops. The person in the Celeb Style
section with the cutline Seth Green was actually in the photo with Seth Green at an event, and the wrong person got labeled. Unfortunately, we are unaware of Seth's friend's name.
Dear Tribute,
In your March issue, the letters column refers to
"the whole nine yards" and where the term originated.
In the Second World War, American fighter planes had belt feed machine guns in the wings. Planes returning from, or heading into, zones of frequent conflict would always insist that the maintenance/gunnery crews would fully load up their ammo. The belts of bullets would be laid out on the ground to ensure a smooth feeding into/out of the breech and they were nine yards in length.
Hence the expression "the whole nine yards" ....indicative of having recently, or planning to soon "give their all' in a life and death situation.
