' YAIUS ~ wheres. i " SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 1950 PAGE SEVEN Hundreds of Would-Be Radio Actors > Will Have Chance of CBC Audition By VAL SEARS Press Staff Writer Toronto (CP).--The CBC is set- September to June in CBC studios from coast to coast more than 700 men, women and chil- dren will be given a chance to see what they can do in front of a|ing microphone. If you're a regular CBC listener you will hear about 70 of them. This is what happens in a typical audition in the Toronto studio: The applicant is received by Joan Reany, an attractive University of Toronto graduate, who calms the artist's jitters and sets the stage for the test. If the candidate is interested in drama, Joan provides a supporting actor or actress; if he is a vocal artist she gets an From the auditioning studio the candidate's voice is piped into an- other room where a panel of three judges evaluates his ability by a point system on a scoreboard. The judges--all professional artists--do no see the applicant or know his name. The maximum of possible points under headings such and seore of between 70 and 80 means the applicant is ready for broad- cast work. A mark between 60 and 69 indicates that the candidate applicant is given the opportunity to aydition again in six months. new talent, Miss Reany says, but it must be of professional quality. "CBC does not develop talent by radio arts, but by provid- a paid outlet for top Canadian artists," she says. ucers, how- ever, will groom new talent if the artist shows ability." While hundreds of adult per- formers turn up for auditions with CBC, surprisingly few children apply, she says. John Dunlop, supervisor of chil- dren's programs, needs young art- ists for shows like "Doorway to "Cuckoo Clock House." He says a number of otherwise talented children score low marks in auditions because they orate in- stead of talking and acting before a i Groptione as children normally would. Vancouver is one of CBC's busiest audition centres for announcers. Between 150 and 200 voices are tested each year. . Candidates not only read news, but commercial continuity, light and classical music continuity and drama narration.

Below 60 and he's out. If the applicant has a 70 to 80 rating he is placed on a call list, something like a model agency, and he is told CBC will send for him when he can be fitted into a pro- gram. A 60 to 60 grade means the 0. In addition to the regular audi- tions, CBC's weekly talent contest " ty " gives ama- teur talent a chance in front of the mike. Ninety per cent of the an- nouncers heard on the show have been placed in ctation jobs. "The Rich Softness of Velvet Used For Dramatic Effect in Fall Styles 4 It's stil] a bit early for many holi- daying Canadians to be thinking seriously about autumn, but as far as fashion designers are concerned, they're on velvet. A Canadian Press survey of fall styles showed emphasis on velvet in every section of the Dominion. In all colors and types, velvet and velvet trim are merging on a year- round basis. The tubular line, with softer, more effeminate quality in the style of the 20's and with emphasis on a slim, natural outline uncluttered by distracting detail appears to be dominant. Hemlines have inched upward to mid-calf. Dresses show a richness in fabric y and trimming with a stress on § color for dramatic effect. Strong jewel tones predominate in Van- couver, with the spotlight on deep ruby red, emerald green, purple and the ever popular all-black. Necklines vary from very high to plunging lines ¢' such depth that a fill in is practically a necessity. A wide variety of two-piece out- fits and jumpers is being shown at Edmonton. Corduroy is prevalent in suits, jackets, jumpers and dres- ses. Nylon sweaters are also in evidence in cardigan, pullover and short-sleeved styles. Copper and brighter browns are noted in Winnipeg's early autun.n displays. Department stores report a demand for fur-trimmed frocks and feature small pillbox hats with novelty trimming. Pure silks--metallic taffeta, slip- per satin and hammered satin-- in all colors and types are ex- pected favorites in Toronto. Flan- nels in orange, pink, ivory and charcoal are other early season headliners. Theatre coats, suitable for all-day wear, are a new feature. Montreal displays feature the| shel storm coat, with fur collar, belted, and with bat-wing sleeves. Authen- tic tartans and grey flannels are shown for casual wear. Handbags appear in the satchel, box and pouch style. Hats are small and close-fitting. Paper taffetas and crepes with velvet trim have made their ap- pearance in Halifax, where pre- dominant colors are charcoal grey, tangerine, backdrop blue, autumn leaf, purple, winter navy and black. Elysian wool coats are being shown for the first time in years in Saint John, N.B, where em- Joss satin dresses are also fea- FOR SHINING, CLEAN HAIR According to the hair experts, ™ your shampoo will be twice as ef- = fective if you launder your locks - this way. Tie the shampoo cape over your shoulders and brush your hair thoroughly to remove dust and stimulate scalp circulation. Wet your hair with tepid water. Next, pour about one tablespoon of the shampoo solution into your hand and, with the fingertips, work it through the hair and into your scalp . Rinse and apply it a second time, working the abundant lather through the hair from the scalp out to the ends. Riuse thoroughly with plenty of tepid water and towel-dry. Now look at your hair-- | intery it's as clean and shining as a bright new penny!

But just the same it occurs to us that the smart young woman who does her own housework would have fewer beauty problems if she would remember: To wear loose-fitting, thin rub ber gloves when washing dishes or dusting, and loose-fitting, thin cotton gloves when gardening. That in the absence of gloves, it's a good idea to dig fingernails into a cake of soap before starting to clean a closet or pull weeds out of the lawn. The soap keeps dirt stains nails and is simple to wash out afterward. That nibbling between meals or tasting this and that while prepar- ing dinner will soon add inches to waistline and hip measurements. To relax and bend from the waistline when making beds or dusting the bottom of a chair. As few homemakers have time to do exercises regularly, it's a good idea to make the necessary bending and stretching involved in housework do something for the figure. To stretch waistline muscles when stretching up to dust the top of a window, hang a curtain or wipe off the top shelf of the closet. To have special house shoes -- low-heeled and comfortable and which give adequate support to the arches. (It's a mistake to wear last year's street or dress shoes, which were designed for other oc- casions than morning housework.)
