IN PROTECTIVE CUSTODY St. Augustine, fla. -- Dr. Martin Luther King rides in back seat of police car under the watchful eye of police dog as he is returned to jail in St. Augustine, Fla., Friday after testifying before a grand jury invesitgating racial un- rest in this city. (AP Wire- photo) Auto Ciubmen Urge Testing Twice Yearly OTTAWA (CP)--The need for mandatory inspection of all cars every six months was stressed by the Canadian Automobile As- jsociation at its annual meeting Friday. Representatives of auto clubs from all provinces decided to request their governments for: mandatory imspection of all cars, used and new ones. The board of transport com- missioners and the federal gov- ernment will be asked for leg- islation requiring all locomo- tives to be equipped with a flashing dome light to reduce traffic hazards at railroad crossings. Since, according to the asso- ciation, 'a modem, scientifi- cally-oriented approach to the problem of traffic accidents" is absent, provincial governments will be urged to establish trained accident investigation teams to determine accurately the true causes of traffic acci- dents. The federal government then would be asked to co-ordinate the findings of these teams, so that proper corrective action could be taken, Delegates agreed to proposed studies of car and car-product sales taxes and highway finan- SEE OE OO gan pe eee Bie yagi iy COMING EVENTS Civic Pacorahion ay SUNDAY, JUNE 14f 3 PM.

LESLIE McFARLANE "Hardy Boys Author Honorary Wolf Cub By LYDIA MACDONALD "Read any good books or talked to any interesting peo- ple lately?" This is an old question and the usual answer is "No". But the boys of the 21st "B" Oshawa Cub Pack can answer "Yes!"' because they were priv- ileged recently to visit Leslie McFarlane's home in Whitby and spent an enjoyable and in- formative evening with the Ca- nadian author and his family. What is it like to visit one of Canada's most prolific authors, the man who originated the Hardy Boys years ago, and who now writes television plays shown all around the world? "Just great", say 20 Wolf Cubs. Mr. McFarlane, a man in his early sixties, met us at the door of his home and escorted us into the living room. Their host asked each boy to intro- duce himself and then he began to chat informaily about his life as a Canadian writer. HARDY SERIES Explaining how he had begun writing the Hardy Boys series nearly 40 years ago, Mr. Mc- Farlane told how he had been a struggling freelance writer and had earned a small income |by writing "paperbacks" for the original author of the Rover |Boys, who would provide the plots but was too busy to do the actual writing of the. books. He told how this led to an invita- tion to start a new series about two young boys whose father would be a famous private de- tective, and how he began by writing the first three books of the series, which were pub- lished simultaneously, each. book containing a reference to the other two so that readers of one would be tempted to read the others. He told how he wrote the first three volumes of the Hardy Boys in the summer of 1927 but said that the series did not really begin to "catch on" until the fourth volume when he in- troduced a_ character _ called "Aunt Gertrude" to "add a bit of pepper'. Altogether Mr. McFarlane wrote 19 volumes of the series between 1927 and 1946 under the name of Franklin W. Dixon. He explained that it is a com- mon practice of publishers of such series books to use "house names' for their authors so that should one writer abandon the series another can take over, The volumes Mr. McFarlane WOODBINE ENTRIES MONDAY, June 14 FIRST RACE -- Purse Claiming Maiden Two-year.

Apprentice A wrote for the series have sold more than 12 million copies, Oth- er writers now carry on the ser- ies and the volumes Mr. Mc- Farlane wrote years ago are now being rewritten to modern- ize them and bring them more into line with the world today. NOT TRASH Mr. McFarlane mentioned a recent newspaper controversy when a.member of a. Public School Board referred to such books as trash. He had this to say: "If I had thought they were trash I would not have written them. Books of this kind are meant to entertain and I think they have value in in- teresting boys in the pleasures of reading. Of course, I don't expect boys to continue read- ing them. But once you learn to enjoy books and once you ac- quire a taste for reading you will want more solid books. You'll discover Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, Treasure Is- land, David Copperfield and all the great treasures of litera- ture". Mr. McFarlane decried the theory of some writers and edu- cators that children's books should be written in very sim- ple langauge, and that boys are frightened away from reading when they encounter long words. "This is nonsense," he said. 'J think boys enjoy meeting new words, the longer the bet- ter. They like to learn how to pronounce them and find out what they mean." In spite of the huge sales of the Hardy boys, he said he made very little money from them and earns nothing from them today, but that. they help- ed support his family through the depression. He told the boys that other Canadians who had written some of the greatest successes in publishing _his- tory, such as L. M. Montgom- ery, with "Anne of Green Gables", the famous dog story "Beautiful Joe" and his friend Sir Charles G. D. Roberts' ani- mal stories had brought very little money. to their authors. Asked if he had always want- ed to be a writer Mr. McFarlane answered in the affirmative, adding: "It' is a great advan- tage if you can decide early in life what you want to be and then prepare yourself according- He told the boys how a writer gets ideas for plays and books and stories from many sources, sometimes from newspaper items, and sometimes from talking to people. He keeps his ideas for future plays and stor- jes in a filing cabinet in the room where he does his work. WORK PLANNED A well-organized man, Mr. McFarlane, has his work pro- gram planned for the next two years. He told the boys that he was presently writing a televi- sion serial called: "McGonigle Skates Again' for the CBC, to be followed by two one-hour television plays for the Play- date series and another serial: He announced that he had just that afternoon signed a book contract with McClelland and Stewart, Canadian publishers, for three books to be written Monday, BINGO 8:00 P.M.

Mr. McFarlane explained that he likes to write iin the mornings and that he lean work on only one project jat a time and that he rewrites la great deal, sometimes taking three months to complete a |television play although some jof the Hardy Boys books were written in as little as a week. After the discussion period the boys were joined by Mrs. McFarlane and her daughters Anne and Kathleen, and we all went downstairs to the recre- ation room. The south wall of the room displayed many photo- graphs. Some were scenes from. Mr. McFarlane's forty television. plays and _ others) were from the films he has| written and directeq for the National Film Board. The boys readily recognized many of the famous people with whom Mr. McFarlane has worked, such as Frances Hy- land, Fred Gwynne, Eric House, Bing Crosby, Frank McHugh, Orson Bean, Corinne Conley, Murray Westgate and others. There were gasps and _ sighs and "Gees" and "Gollys".
