day at the Memorial arena Great improvement was shown by many individual skaters Hie overall production was ragged- It was not up to last years standards This was due in part to the fact that more than skaters were appearing in a caralval for the first For the majority of that number this season marked their at tempt at skating They could not be expected to give the almost professional performance turned in by many of the clubs veter ans Considering the hours of vol unteer labor only the instruc tor is paid that went into the production one hesitates to criticize the carnival But at least on Friday night music was so loud that it bombarded ones eardrums main criticism of the show concerned its length The arena is too cold a place to sit for more than three hours were the next Underbill of the Hamilton Figure Skating club did not draw the laughs that Jack Cox had won by his performance last year On Ice was the theme for the babies of the club As in past shows the little ones cap tivated the audience with their independent interpretations of their routines Baby dolls one of whom cried mama when she sat down rather teddy bears toy soldiers jack-in-the- boxes and monkeys appeared in the junior group as did six older girls who were moving sentry boxes Tom was the toymaker The small boys who portrayed monkeys stayed in character with some impromptu monkey shines The concluding item before intermission was the Sandpaper ballet Tyrolean capers featured six boys and six ponies The pony costumes had realistically con structed pony heads complete with The Autumn Leaves ballet and Institute r The Blind For Annua The Newmarket Era and Flans for the annual campaign for funds by the Canadian Na tional Institute for the Blind were made at a meeting of the

services Mrs McCaffrey said is the opening of the world of literature to blind people It is a great aid in blind people she added In recent years Talking Books have been used more ex tensively than Braille to accom plish this aim- These books con sist of records A mans voice reading full length novels is re corded The records are sent by mail to the homes of blind peo ple This service enables a blind person to have a reader by his side a reader who never and whose voice never grows tired A successful cam paign for funds will the Institute to prepare and dis tribute more of these Talking

extensively It was suc cessful in this years Merry Wi dow routine providing greater variety in choreography and cos tume The raiser was called appropriately enough Curtain Time In it a dozen of the clubs more experienced skaters ap peared in attractive turquoise costumes The costumes added great beauty to the entire carni val and won much praise for their designer Charles Kiel who combined the duties of club in structor with choreographer Wardrobe mistresses were Mrs R Hutchinson and Mrs Herman The costume commit tee consisted of Mrs Hutchinson Mrs Robert King Mrs Roll ings Mrs Bruce Hunter Mrs Arthur Field and Mrs Clifford Bell These women contributed hours of work to the carnival as did many other volunteers Soloists in this years carnival were Judy Morton Torn Moor- by Colleen Cain Bob Hunter Betsy Bell Karen Peat and Guy Without exception they showed greater poise and grace as they executed more difficult routines than they had in past carnivals The high spot of the carnival was the acrobatic skating of Helen White and Ron Tennont It was outstanding Guy de serves a special mention for his mastery of some intricate leaps twirls and spins Jean and Smith in a special pairs routine gave a smooth grateful performance The imported comedian Jack group routines by young girls of the club Karen Peat was the ballerina with the first group Three numbers by the teen agers of the club followed They were Highland Swing Study in Brown with two pairs Janet and Guy Revell and Lynn and Bob Hun ter and Gras A solo by the clubs instructor preceded the finale Mr Kiel performed in the car nival despite the fact that he was suffering from influenza This spirit of the veteran trouper who stays with his show regard- less of his dizzy head and chills characterizes Mr Kiels work with

dissatisfaction with regard to the interference of channel three and the proposed change of chan nel nine to channel six Newmarket town council should be at least congratulated Furthermore East residents should assist in at tempting to eliminate the dicta torial attitude of the CBC If we are a democratic country lets request the government to inter pret the meaning of democracy Is it government by the people and for the people or has our present government such a ma jority that they treat the voter with contempt It certainly ap pears so and for the benefit of those who read this if we allow this outrageous display to con tinue life behind the iron curtain would bo as well if not better I am a veteran Three and a half years was spent in defending democracy Or was it democracy
