station The current national tour began the first of May when the troupe left Calgary in their converted schoolbus for what they thought would be six weeks work in Prince Rupert But some of the bookings fell through thats when they began to line up their own jobs We found it was just as easy to book ourselves says Everett And we found there was ready reception for com edyacts But lining up work wasnt easy The comedians would check out local clubs and hotels in the mornings talk owners in to hiring them spend after noons promoting themselves by driving through downtown streets have dinner and then perform in the evening The hours were long often 14 hours day but Everetts convinced their national tour has been worth the effort Now weve established reputation and that makes it lot easier the next time we try it he says TAKE IIANLE Sometimes club owner were reluctant to take chance on comedy act Lucas and Everett were persistent When we ap proach club owner were like dog biting bone we dont let go until he says yes The comedians have been in Ontario for two months play ing small towns like Atikokan and Wawa and larger cities like ttawa where they performed at Andy and Flos the local comedy cabaret Both conic dians agree their best au Aussie band exploits variety By ROB PATTERSON Sure we were bit surprised at how quickly we were ac cepted in the States says Glen Shorrock front man and lead Singer for Australias Little River Band Not that we felt we couldnt do it but usually it takes little longer for group from Australia to get an au dience here In fact Little River Band does seem customdesigned to get the most mileage from some of the best talents from Down Under Shorrock guitarists Graham Goble and Beeb Birtle and drummer Derek Pellicci were all members of wellknown groups in their native land Sharrock credits this for giving us all bit of experience that has been very valuable Thegroup has four different songwriters which means we can offer tremendous varie ty says Shorrock That is what attracted us all to each other in the first place Usually an Aussie act will have to go and make it in England before they maybe go on to make it in America ex

populations between 5000 and work from an agent 10000 This trip has convinced me theres market for com edy in small communities says Everett Everett and Lucas also visited Toronto where Mark Brcslin owner of Yuk Yuks Comedy Cabaret asked them to perform for free The come dians refused But they did stay in Toronto long enough to talk to people at the CBC and CTV US influence attacked OTTAWA CP CBC presilt dent Al Johnson said Thursday pay television should be allowed only if it contributes to more and better domestic programming that would be shown on free channels Johnson told onelay con ference sponsored by the Cana dian Broadcasting League that the number of US channels available to Canadians amounts to national disgrace It is national disgrace that 75 per cent of the television viewing time of Englishlan guage Canadians is spent watching US programs he said The figure for FrenchCa nadians is 40 per cent Johnson said the sole test for new television services such as pay television should be whether they lead to an in crease in viewing of Canadian programming He said that when pay tele vision is introduced it should be on payforprogram basis and not on payforchannel basis Earlier Communications Minister David MacDonald said applications for pay television licences will be considered after the Canadian Hadi0television and lelecommunications Com mission holds
