The Canadian people have bought over 2 milliori sets.- The many fineshows that have been produced by the CBC the threeyears television has been in operation in Canada sufficientproof that, Canadian talent can produce programs f highquahtywWch are origihally Canadian: It is intare^ 3 note that 7,000 Canadian artists appeared on CBC T V last ear and that jiuring the past months 2,000 different Canadian erformers have been appearing eäch month on CBC prOgrams. Thanks to the work of these artists and technicians aiid the : B C Canadian T V has shown a development which cannot be xcelled by any other land. It is obvious that private stations would never go to the ost of producing: their own programs when canned entertain- (lent is readily available from the US networks at a fraction f the cost. One of the things that impressed us greatly when we visited 'inland a few yeärs ago was the complete absence of commer-ials on the radio. (TV wasnot available at the time). It certainly dds to listening pleasure when the program is not int^rrupted /ith a Commercial every few minutes in which the imajgined ualities of some product are extoUed. As a matter of fact the US is one of the few countries in the orid in which control of radio and T V is in the hands of private lonopolies. , It is true that the CBC cannot operate on a profit hasis J f is to serve the- national interests of Canada. If it must cater commercialism it will be tied to the dictates of the advertiserS. he Canadian people will have no objections against government r ants amounting to a f e w tens of millions if the CBC continiies developalong the trends it has shown in the past. ; / Television and radio offer great possibilitiCs for the develop-nt of Canadian taleht which in the past has been forced to k opportunities in the US, We have already seen whäLt anadians can do when given the opportunity, One of Canada's ading artists M a W Moore recently declared: "Stop trying to ipy what the Americans do best. In everything we do we must p over the present into the future; If we try to'follow what ? Americans; are doing we shall always be 25 years behind em; if we're really smart we can go over their heads as we id at Stratford and start leading them." He concludes with the ollowing observation: "What matters is not that we are Gan-iians, but that because we are Canadians we have a rare chahce • contribute new ideas, techniques and methods to a World rying for them. We shall betray" ourselve sand humanity if b .aIlow our wagon to get hitched to the glittering European 'ast, the glitteiring American present, or äny other nagthari ar own glittering future." , ,^. , •; In Canada the only»guarantee of achieving this /'glittering iture" is through a pubJiclyowned medium such as the CBC ^hich has adequate funds to offer an outlet for creätive lanadian talent. mmmm Even Cals Are Covered By^ Union Confrads Nevburgh, New Yoilc . The only cats in the-country who have a union contract and union condl^' tion are employed at the Natll Gypsum Co's paper miU here. Papenvorks Local 291 negotiatr • the agreement "It was a question of gettuig a fair day's pay for a fair: day's work," explained I>ocal President Michael Crudele.who led the "cat negotiations." "OuT; Mill was b ^ m i n g plagued with *rats," Crudele Said.' "They .weren't litle ones, either and they were plenty bold, even getting into the lunches of our members." The null's family of cats, Crudele said, "were awfully gaunt and wlth-out the pep to give the rats any competitiqp." They managed to exist by foraging among scraps left over from the workers'- lunch boxes. "This wasn't enough to keep them in proper shape for rat catch-* ing," he added., The Locars health and safety committee took the matter to management as a grievance, and negotiations brought agreement on a guaranteed monthly - allotment' of 56 to feed the felihes. Treasurer of the cat kitty is the chairman of the Locars refreshment committeeV Everyone's pleased vwii'h the set-tlement^ Crudele said, that is, every-one except the rats. "The rafs are gone; the cats are looking sleek and: we've even got: a' bonus out of it. Could becalled a Production or reproduction bonus . . . At any rate, practically every member of the union here has a kitten that was born in the mill." VIGOROUS VITAMINS A patron in. a restaurant hand-ed the waiter tvtro vitamin pills and asked him to dissolve them in- a bowl of clam chowder. After a long intervaU he asked the waiterwhy the chowder hadn't been served yet. Sald'th^waiter: = 7' - - - v •- " Y o u l l get the chowder, sir, as soon as we get the clams to lie down." L \ EYE ON THE DRAMA FESTIVAL Few Suggestions for Amafeur Actors sen '9 jsäkofl^'i Are the young people in yoiu* own interested in dramatics? /ould you like to contribute to the lummer programme being planned h your Finnish Organization? pere is a great deal t o b e leamt ut the art of acting, and in smal-er communities it is considered ather difficult to start Drama plubs because of the lack. of in-tructors. The truth is that if you Ire really interested, a great many Books on the subject may be bor- |owed from your public library, can read these books together, tudy themVahd discuss their con-ent. Perhaps a good start would elocution, ratber than getting Jnfused m trying to handle stag- ^g, lighting, etc. This woultf be a lood time to take into consideration \ox t year's Youth Drama Festival: The reading of a play is very im-kessive, and it presents no staging [roblems. Ifgives an opportunity to nprove on speech and expression. In some libraries / collections of Jggested plays for reading may be |btained in quantity, also there are 5veral one-act Finnish plays avail- Ible from the N a t l Office. Many |f the Finnish plays though old lave eontent that/is relative to the 5fe and problems of today. If yoij |re interested, i t would be well korth y o u r i ^ i l e to drop a line ating what t ^ e of play you would ^ave in^mind^ Here are a few suggestions for |mateur actors extracted: froin a eaflet printed b y . " Kulttuurityö" Finland, (Incidently a great |eal of this' vtroiild be belpful to lose planning to enter the Youth )rama Festival next Easter.) ; "On several occasions it is noted lat the presentation of a play p s not too successfuL Although ppable directors and talented ac- 3rs were involved in the play, there ^'as a tendency to be careless tak-: perhaps >a little tbo nmcb för ^ranted, Every ;actor given^ a role matter how small' or seemingly [inimportant, should s t u d y t t^ Tiaracter of the person they äre play, hjsrelation to the rest the plot, and above ali to £a-liliarize hlmself with the oitire ;>lay SO that he may present: his part: with ease; and nnderstanding this.relatipit: The i o l l o v i n g are few hints to remember when act- 1. The "role" or part should be memorized as soon as possible, so that rehearsals on stage could be carried out without the interference of holding, the role in ones hand, reading from it and forgetting actions. 2. The direction of the play should be left to one person while rehearsing. If the play is a collect-ive effort, one person should still do the actual directing, and then aftenvards discuss and make suggestions, so as not to confuse the actors, and disillusion them, and avoid a bedlam.. (A dozen directors, and no actors.) 3. Rehearsals should be prompt. No , lateness should be tolerated. Each participant should be made aware of their hindering the pro-gress of the rest of the east by being late. Also it breaks the continulty of play having to pause and wait for someone. The time allotted to re-hearsal should be respected as such, and not used for gossip, handiwork etc. 4. Bit parts are equally.as important as main roles, and the actor should feel it his duty to attend any and ali rehearsals of the play. 5^ A promter should be had as soon as roles are set aside, so that the director may direct without having to prompt as welL 6, The director shoöld study the play carefuUybeforegivlng out parts, and understand the contänt of the play the relation of each pait to the plot, and have a clear' picture in*bis owniniind of the.staging.^Hie must be prepared to explain to each actor the character, the part and his movements and why they must J>e SO, also to be prepared to consider any. sound suggestions the actor himself may have. J n the case of a: coUeciive effort the vsame applies, only the others nmst also study the play and critize' the direc-tor's pian. It must be remember fhat the director is the only person in the end who is responsible for the success or failure of the. play, his postien should be -respected as such. i f actors feel the methpd of directing is imsatlsfactory the matter should be. discussed after the rehearsal where criticisms may be made. If the criticisms are just, then the methods can be corrected. At no time during a rehearsal should there be interruptions and criticisms made, as this will only confuse the less experienced actors." . - In many cases there are" people around whö wouId -Uke^^^^^t^ around the stage, but not-on it, These people can. be recruited to study staging, ^to look after the costuming, others may find make-up extremely interesting^ others may want to study lighting. A l i these help to improve a production. Ifot to be forgotten, is the interest Ito write~ plays or pantomines, and translate plays from Finnish to English or vice versa. So there we have it,:an enormous field to cultivate, and wefhaven't so mucb as scratched the surface yet. What say we get to wörk study-ing and I^ming ali nrecan about äramatics; and next spring at the Drama Festival really give the old" folks a joit! — AH. Colonial Y o u t h Can Be A s s i s t e d in M a n y W a ys Last summer at the 5th World Youth 'Festival there were many Xriendly meetings held, one such meeting was held between the Yöutta Df Finland and the Youth of Senegal. J t was really some-thing to remember seeing the stoic Finn not being able to speakany-thing but Finnish trying to converse with the African who did^ speäk some English. You might wonder why the negrtf^from Senegal chose to meet with the Finn from- Scan-, dinavia. It ali started this way: In colonial countries young people barely get enough to eat, much less- to even dream »f slich trips as the World Youth Festival; In 1954 the International Solidarity Fund was launched by the World Federation, of Demöcratic Youth; Direct re-lations of solidarity were establish-ed betvveen many coutries, for in-stance Finland and Senegal; The youth of Finland collected money to aid the Youth of Senegal, through this help it was possible for theni to attend the Festival. Although it has only been in ex-istance .for two years already^ two distributions have benefited raore than 50 countries. Cultural .and sports equipment. were given by WFDY member organizations siich as filmprojectionapparatus, different musical instruments, baskct-balls, School equipment,etc. In the recent period: the WFDY has made contributions to disaster victims in countries such as: India, Pakistan, Lebanon and the Barbados. Its aim is to help the young people of colr onial and under-developed countries or of countries recently, liberated from colonialism but who sUU suf-fer the consequences of the colonial regime, to satisfy their urgentneeds in life and in culture, sport and education: to aid youilg victims of disaster stricken areas arid through The SadFaleOf Freddie the Trout One day, my cousin George (he lived up by Owen Sound in Ontario), coming home from a fisiiing trip, noticed that one of the trout He. had caught was still alive. Just for fun, he dropped it into an old rain-barrel that stood at the back of his höuse. Weil, you know how mosquito larvae.grow.in rainbarrels^ danged if this fish didn't recover and start feeding on those larvae. When he noticed it was still alive, .George began to feed the trout/worms and bugs. Pretty soon it got tame and took tiie-iood right out of his hand You know, after avvhile, it got '^so that George could'pick the trout out of the .water and hold it in his ,hand. He named it Freddie. They were real buddies. George kept picking that trout up and holding it out of the water a little longer evöry day. When it raiiied, he could keep it out of the barrel for an hour or so. Then it only had to' be foggy. Then a little dew on the grass was good enough. Soon that fish didn't need any water-at ali. It was one of the strangest sights you ever saw. George walking a-round: his backyard, and thö trout fifi»-flopping after him, just like altame little puppy-dog. bne day, George waswatking up the path, towards a field on the other side of'the brook. As usual^ Fneddiewasflip-floping after him. As he crossed the bridge, George didn' tnotice the one; of the planks was missing. But Freddie wasn't quite: so lucky. He flipped>, then nopj>ed, right thourgh the missing plank, ker-splash into water J>e)ow. George lealized immediately what must have happened. - He. dashed down to the side; of the. stream, But he was too late. Freddie had drowned. tiie^e actions, to strengthen the friendship and solidarity between young people throughout the vorld.

The WFDY has already sent 1,000 Indian rupees (Equlvalent to about 225 American; DoUars) the sum pror posed by.-this Committee;: for each family. AU contributions no matter how modest are of use and can be sent to the Committee through the WFDY.

How many of us simplyenjoy "getting ducked" and having a good 8wim, or feel contented in thinking "we can make shore" if the boat should tip. Once a eertain point of ability is reached, the tendency is to leave it at that. That 8wim w i l l b e more pleasant, and that shore more: at-tainable If you strive for and reach perf action. Anyone who has not yet leamed the fundamentals of swimming ought to do so before another 6wimmless summer has passed. Who knows? It you begin right away you may be i n shape for the swim' ming competitions; a new feature of this year'8 Ontario Youth Festival. A beginner should give himselX confidence by discovering how simpleit is to f l o a t L e am to float easily, face down and with your eyes open beneath the water. Confidence and a relaxed, feeling are great assets in 8wimming.' The crawl is considered the best stroke for pleasure or racing. Push of f into the water from a standing position wlth one hand in front,-the other beside the thigh.

The kicking is done straight from the hip—> an action like a man walking stifflegged.

Sce ^ou at the ecstivalt By BOB WARD , .This fellow toldranother fcllow who told, our bakcr who told us that he's mighty peevcd at C. D. Howe. , . ' .'--o The way the story was told tö ua by our bakcrwho got it from.thoso other fellows was that this foUow wa8 reading ali of the news,about Howe forking out 80 millioh.dol-lars to those gasbags.from Texasf So this giiy figured that it C D . Howe was-loäning out that kind of money ho'd likc'to get in on it too. f Weil ho ups and drops a wire to CD. Our bakcr said it was a pretty nicc wire.' The way he rccalled it; it went sbm^thing like this: • Dear C D . — We feee where you'ro looning money to those Texan gas-' men - ? $80 jnillion dollars to bulld a Canadian pipcline. stop. Being a 1()0 preccnt red-blooded Canadian I thought you'd lend me some money, too. stop. If you put up the dough r u build a pipellno that'11 knock your eye out. stop. I notko you'ro a man of action vhcn it comes to b&nding our monäy^ to thäm forclgners from Texas so fig-ure you'll act oven more quickly for a good Canadian, stop; Please send the money by return .mail. ^ * The way the story wcnt this fcl-low wait^d and waltcd and waitcd. The longer he waited the maddcr he got. Weil, a week or so went by and no money from Howe. So he up and rips off another wlre: Dear C D. What'8 the holdup on the dough for the pipeline I told you I'd build., stop. You don't have to give good Canadian dough to those Yanks. stop. And I do meän, slbp. Send the dotigli to mc. Then camc more waiting. Matter of fact the fellow is sttU wäitlng^: according to our bakcr,' who knows the feUow who knows him, And he'8 sizzling mad. Hopping! Talking to everybody who'll listeh to him, our bakcr says. Matter of fact he even taiks to folk who won'tlisten, What he's saylng is that things have come to a pretty pas8when taxpaycrs' money.cart be forked out to forgeignera by I{owc and company. But the ,itame Howc won't even reply to a Canadian who fig-ures he could build that pipeline easy as pumpkln pie. Particuiany^ our oaker told u», with the government putting up ali of the money, A lot of people are upset about the gasline deal, our baker tells us. They're as hot as Brown'8 Serve rolls hot out of the oven, he told us. And that, he said, is pretty; hot. " L i o k at it this way," he said, "here's us poor. citizens getting taxed from here to matcmity and beyond. Then characters like this C. D. Howe'takes our money and forks it over to those. Texan gas barons, How about us though?" he asked. "Why, Howe and his gang wouldn't give the taxpapers a kind Word," Our baker can't figure out why Texas milllonaires should get money out of the Canadian government; Those Texas millionaires," he stated, "have got more money already than our fruit loaf has got fruit. And thafs really fruity," he went on." This friend of the friend öf öii? baker has got a new angle now, we were told. The idea, our bakcr told «is, is that he'8 going to write to Howe again. But this time he's going to wrilc from Buffalo. The baker explainedit to us this way. "The fellow figures that Howe wouIdn't give the right,time tO a Canadian. So by appearing to be from U.S.A. Howe's almost bound to snap the proposition up. So that^s the story as it was told to us. Thcro must be goöd^jhdr| somewhcrö.

; SO is emphasized; by the f act th^t T V is now available to 12
•lillion Canadians through 38-stations in operation or beihg
uilt. The Canadian people have bought over 2 milliori sets.-
The many fineshows that have been produced by the CBC
the threeyears television has been in operation in Canada
sufficientproof that, Canadian talent can produce programs
f highquahtywWch are origihally Canadian: It is intare^
3 note that 7,000 Canadian artists appeared on CBC T V last
ear and that jiuring the past months 2,000 different Canadian
erformers have been appearing eäch month on CBC prOgrams.
Thanks to the work of these artists and technicians aiid the
: B C Canadian T V has shown a development which cannot be
xcelled by any other land.
It is obvious that private stations would never go to the
ost of producing: their own programs when canned entertain-
(lent is readily available from the US networks at a fraction
f the cost.
One of the things that impressed us greatly when we visited
'inland a few yeärs ago was the complete absence of commer-ials
on the radio. (TV wasnot available at the time). It certainly
dds to listening pleasure when the program is not int^rrupted
/ith a Commercial every few minutes in which the imajgined
ualities of some product are extoUed.
As a matter of fact the US is one of the few countries in the
orid in which control of radio and T V is in the hands of private
lonopolies. ,
It is true that the CBC cannot operate on a profit hasis J f
is to serve the- national interests of Canada. If it must cater
commercialism it will be tied to the dictates of the advertiserS.
he Canadian people will have no objections against government
r ants amounting to a f e w tens of millions if the CBC continiies
developalong the trends it has shown in the past. ; /
Television and radio offer great possibilitiCs for the develop-nt
of Canadian taleht which in the past has been forced to
k opportunities in the US, We have already seen whäLt
anadians can do when given the opportunity, One of Canada's
ading artists M a W Moore recently declared: "Stop trying to
ipy what the Americans do best. In everything we do we must
p over the present into the future; If we try to'follow what
? Americans; are doing we shall always be 25 years behind
em; if we're really smart we can go over their heads as we
id at Stratford and start leading them." He concludes with the
ollowing observation: "What matters is not that we are Gan-iians,
but that because we are Canadians we have a rare chahce
• contribute new ideas, techniques and methods to a World
rying for them. We shall betray" ourselve sand humanity if
b .aIlow our wagon to get hitched to the glittering European
'ast, the glitteiring American present, or äny other nagthari
ar own glittering future." , ,^. , •;
In Canada the only»guarantee of achieving this /'glittering
iture" is through a pubJiclyowned medium such as the CBC
^hich has adequate funds to offer an outlet for creätive
lanadian talent.

President Michael Crudele.who led
the "cat negotiations."
"OuT; Mill was b ^ m i n g plagued
with *rats," Crudele Said.' "They
.weren't litle ones, either and they
were plenty bold, even getting into
the lunches of our members."
The null's family of cats, Crudele
said, "were awfully gaunt and wlth-out
the pep to give the rats any
competitiqp." They managed to
exist by foraging among scraps left
over from the workers'- lunch
boxes. "This wasn't enough to keep
them in proper shape for rat catch-*

The Locars health and safety
committee took the matter to management
as a grievance, and negotiations
brought agreement on a

\ox t year's Youth Drama Festival:
The reading of a play is very im-kessive,
and it presents no staging
[roblems. Ifgives an opportunity to
nprove on speech and expression.
In some libraries / collections of
Jggested plays for reading may be

5veral one-act Finnish plays avail-

Here are a few suggestions for

eaflet printed b y . " Kulttuurityö"

part: with ease; and nnderstanding
this.relatipit: The i o l l o v i n g are
few hints to remember when act-
1. The "role" or part should be
memorized as soon as possible, so
that rehearsals on stage could be
carried out without the interference
of holding, the role in ones hand,
reading from it and forgetting
actions.
2. The direction of the play
should be left to one person while
rehearsing. If the play is a collect-ive
effort, one person should still
do the actual directing, and then
aftenvards discuss and make suggestions,
so as not to confuse the
actors, and disillusion them, and
avoid a bedlam.. (A dozen directors,
and no actors.)
3. Rehearsals should be prompt.
No , lateness should be tolerated.
Each participant should be made
aware of their hindering the pro-gress
of the rest of the east by being
late. Also it breaks the continulty of
play having to pause and wait for
someone. The time allotted to re-hearsal
should be respected as such,
and not used for gossip, handiwork
etc.
4. Bit parts are equally.as important
as main roles, and the actor
should feel it his duty to attend any
and ali rehearsals of the play.
5^ A promter should be had as
soon as roles are set aside, so that
the director may direct without
having to prompt as welL
6, The director shoöld study the
play carefuUybeforegivlng out
parts, and understand the contänt of
the play the relation of each pait
to the plot, and have a clear' picture
in*bis owniniind of the.staging.^Hie
must be prepared to explain to
each actor the character, the part
and his movements and why they
must J>e SO, also to be prepared
to consider any. sound suggestions
the actor himself may have. J n the
case of a: coUeciive effort the vsame
applies, only the others nmst also
study the play and critize' the direc-tor's
pian. It must be remember
fhat the director is the only person
in the end who is responsible for
the success or failure of the. play,
his postien should be -respected as
such. i f actors feel the methpd of
directing is imsatlsfactory the matter
should be. discussed after the
rehearsal where criticisms may be
made. If the criticisms are just,
then the methods can be corrected.
At no time during a rehearsal
should there be interruptions and
criticisms made, as this will only
confuse the less experienced actors."
. -
In many cases there are" people
around whö wouId -Uke^^^^^t^
around the stage, but not-on it,
These people can. be recruited to
study staging, ^to look after the
costuming, others may find make-up
extremely interesting^ others
may want to study lighting. A l i
these help to improve a production.
Ifot to be forgotten, is the interest
Ito write~ plays or pantomines, and
translate plays from Finnish to
English or vice versa.
So there we have it,:an enormous
field to cultivate, and wefhaven't
so mucb as scratched the surface
yet. What say we get to wörk study-ing

Colonial Y o u t h Can Be

Last summer at the 5th World
Youth 'Festival there were many
Xriendly meetings held, one such
meeting was held between the
Yöutta Df Finland and the Youth
of Senegal. J t was really some-thing
to remember seeing the stoic
Finn not being able to speakany-thing
but Finnish trying to converse
with the African who did^ speäk
some English. You might wonder
why the negrtf^from Senegal chose
to meet with the Finn from- Scan-,
dinavia.
It ali started this way: In colonial
countries young people barely get
enough to eat, much less- to even
dream »f slich trips as the World
Youth Festival; In 1954 the International
Solidarity Fund was
launched by the World Federation,
of Demöcratic Youth; Direct re-lations
of solidarity were establish-ed
betvveen many coutries, for in-stance
Finland and Senegal; The
youth of Finland collected money
to aid the Youth of Senegal,
through this help it was possible
for theni to attend the Festival.

The SadFaleOf
Freddie the Trout
One day, my cousin George (he
lived up by Owen Sound in Ontario),
coming home from a fisiiing
trip, noticed that one of the trout
He. had caught was still alive. Just
for fun, he dropped it into an old
rain-barrel that stood at the back
of his höuse.
Weil, you know how mosquito
larvae.grow.in rainbarrels^ danged
if this fish didn't recover and start
feeding on those larvae. When he
noticed it was still alive, .George
began to feed the trout/worms and
bugs. Pretty soon it got tame and
took tiie-iood right out of his hand
You know, after avvhile, it got
'^so that George could'pick the trout
out of the .water and hold it in his
,hand. He named it Freddie. They
were real buddies.
George kept picking that trout up
and holding it out of the water a
little longer evöry day. When it
raiiied, he could keep it out of
the barrel for an hour or so. Then
it only had to' be foggy. Then a
little dew on the grass was good
enough. Soon that fish didn't need
any water-at ali.
It was one of the strangest sights
you ever saw. George walking a-round:
his backyard, and thö trout
