"Before Midland had a radio station of its own,' she says, "I used to do a half- hour Midland Melodies show for CFOR, Orillia." Except for a _ short workshop on_ cable television, that's the extent of her broad- casting experience. Her job as hostess on Community Talk seems a natural extension of her own community interests. Vancouver born, Scotty Attridge came to Ontario for post-graduate work in biology at U. of T. She earned her doctrate, and married a young dentist, W.L. Attridge. They moved to Midland in the 40's, and almost im- mediately, Scotty became involved in community affairs She was a founding member of the Midland Cancer Society, and worked with the local Community Concert Association and the Canadian Club. She also worked as an off-season guide at Ste, Marie, a job which she found "really fascinating" Now widowed, she continues her interest in the Hospital Auxiliary, the Cancer Society and the Huronia Museum. As well, she's a member of Huronia_ Historic Development Council.

"I will never run short of material. Leads? Well, one show seems to grow out of another. A session with John Gammel and the Keegos led to feature on the Kiwanis Club." "Tread the local papers thoroughly for ideas," she says, "and I'm a great clipper!" Each Community Talk show begins with an in- formal session at Scotty's home. "I map things out a bit" she says. "I en- courage people to tell me what questions they would like to be asked. After all, they have more expertise in their par- ticular area than I have."
