We heard them all, and feel that Mr. Allan is to be congratulated for his simple yet informative treat- ment of this sensitive subject, No listener ‘could help but realize that he was merely skimming the surface of a brave new world of mental medical knowledge, new at| least to the average listener. And no one could help but realize that some day soon we shall all be as familiar with mental illness, its causes and—itstreatments, as we are with the common diseases of to-day, Let that suffice as an intro- duction to the fact that Mr- Allan has written the first two stories in a new series_on mental health that will start next Tuesday ev- ening on CJBC. Called “In Search - of Mental Health,” and designed to provide in’ drama form a pic- ture of the common mental illnes- ses and their treatments, it will be heard at eight o'clock. Mar- jorie McEnaney, who is well-known for her direction of “In Search of Ourselves,” will be supervising this new series. The opening broadcast will deal with the case of a young married woman who enters the hospital in a state of nervous dep- ression. Easter Efforts . . .

Ever twist the .dial vigorously in the later hours of the evening look- ing for something more substant- ial than music? We do it frequent- ly, and locate very little. For sev- eral Friday nights though we've stumbled on “Vancouver Theatre” on CBL at 11:30, and found it to our liking. The acting doesn’t have the professional polish of “Stage 50° and “Ford Theatre,” but the production is usually excellent and sometimes the plots are very unu- sual. -If interested, to-morrow night’s drama will be “The Life and Death of King Conor Mac- Nessa,” a story for Good Friday by Martin Maloney. Earlier the same evening Ford Theatre’s Good Friday airing will be a turbulent, adventur- ous, blood-stained Biblical story called “The Robbers.” It’s the work of Canadian writer Bert- ram Brook, whose earlier nov- el, “Think of the Earth,” re- ceived the Governor General's Award. At 7:45, St. Simon’s Choir of Toronto will sing “The Seven Last Words,” a Lenten cantata by the German composer Heinrich Scheutz Soloists will be Gordon Wry, Ernest Adams, and Bruce jerican folk Hugh Sayrs trophy for the best performance in the Central’ On- tario Drama Festival, adjudicator Maxwell Wray had very good things to say about Oakville’s first entry, “The Damask Cheek.” Following the performance on Saturday afternoon, Mr. Wray deemed the group's choice as a “pleasant, amusing, commercial so- ciety play." He went on to say that the cast was extremely well suited to the production. In prais- ing Norah Morgan, who played the teading female role, Mr. Wray said she showed charm, repose and a lovely sense of comedy: The adjudicator'’s chief critic- Webb.

But they ran into a bit of red tape. John Braid told prospective members that he. had been given the red light by R. S. Heathering- ton, Sectetary of the Halton Coun- ty Federation of Agriculture. In a letter Mr. Heatherington said that the Trafalgar group could not Laisa or nominate officers until the County Association meets next week.
