Alphonse Ouimet poured oil on the troubled waters of the corporation Wednesday night and averted a possible walkout by television producers follow- ing the dismissal of the hosts of This Hour Has Seven Days. In a telegram to Tom Koch, president of the Toronto Pro- ducers' Association, Mr. Ouimet agreed to meet producers in tration, and Robert McGall, as- sistant general manager for the English network. The Commons standing com- mittee on broadcasting will start hearings in Ottawa today on the situation in the Crown corporation. Mr. Ouimet's telegram to Mr. Koch averted a threatened walkout by the 70 members of the producers' association and by producers in Ottawa, Winni- English-language public affairs, would meet with directors there Friday. The storm originally blew up last Friday after it was learned Patrick Watson and Laurier La- Pierre, co-hosts of Seven Days, a controversial public affairs program, were being dismissed. What upset the producers was that the pair apparently had been dired by top management without consulting Mr, Haggan Mr. Ouimet has said the pro- gram will return under the same name in the fall but with- out Mr. Watson and Mr. La- Pierre. The CBC president's telegram to Mr. Koch said the CBC board "is actively considering the whole question and is studying your objections. .. ." The Toronto Producers' Asso- ciation will hold a general meet- ing tonight. The telegram said: "We request a complete re- view by senior CBC manage- ment of (A) the management's decision to change hosts on the Program without prior consul- tation with the producer, (B) similar or related incidents pyvhen programs or the content have been changed without proper communication with the deterioration in achieving the avowed aims of the corporation ... aims to which we are com- pletely, loyal--namely to pro vide a national broadcasting system, programs to further a Canadian identity and develop Canadian talent. "Unless management give a firm indication to consider these items and to work toward neces- sary remedial action we will Toronto next week. Mr. Koch and other association executive members will also meet in Ot- tawa today with Guy Coderyre, CBC vice-president of adminis- LU Me peg and Vancouver who sup- port the Torszto group. In a further development, a CBC spokesman in Halifax said Reeves Haggan, supervisor of SUMS UT LTR UL LaMarsh Urges Caution OTTAWA (CP)--State Secre- tary Judy LaMarsh today urged CBC management and produc- ers to exercise restraint in the Seven Days controversy to ini- prove chances of a settlement. Miss LaMarsh, first witness before the Commons broadcast- ing committee investigation of the problem, expressed hope it will be possible to resolve a 'basic conflict" between man- agement's responsibility to man- age and the "freedom for cre- ative minds to create." The minister, who reports to Parliament on broadcasting, said perhaps internal troubles are inevitable within a publicly- operated broadcasting system but to attempt to "paper over the cracks" in the organization|: would be folly. The committee is investigat- ing the firing of the co-hosts of the popular public affairs pro- gram, This Hour Has. Seven Days. : The hosts, Patrick Watson and Laurier LaPierre, were at the hearing and were to testify after MPs completed their qués- tioning of Miss LaMarsh. MPs passed a resolution to invite Douglas Leiterman, the program's executive producer, to appear as well. Miss LaMarsh suggested that MPs confine their investigation to the Seven Days controversy and related troubles in the CBC, and leave a wider study of broadcasting until the govern- ment produces its white paper on broadcasting policy. Miss LaMarsh read from the Fowler committee report which said _ producers' resentment about management is like a slow fire that eventually bursts into a "blaze of resentment" re- Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, arrive to perform the cere- monial state opening of Par- liament in London today -- Her Majesty's 40th birth- day.

The installation was situated in jungle - covered mountains about 190 miles west of Hanoi and only a- few miles from the Laos border. One of the pilots who took part in the raid said the whole area was on fire after U.S. Air Force Thunderchiefs hit it with bombs and rockets. 'The.raid was seen by observ- ers here as a continuation the stepped - up pressure on North Viet Nam by American planes which started nine days ago. In those nine days, U.S. air- craft have attacked to within a few miles of the two main cities of North Viet Nam, Hanoi and Haiphong, hitting missile sites and the country's principal power plant. U.S. air force jets renewed their assaults on the approach to North Viet Nam's strategic Mu Gia Pass after thousands of Vietnamese workers reopened the landslide-clogged funnel to the Ho Chi Minh Trail, a U.S. spokesman said. Only eight days ago U.S. B-52s dropped 700 tons of bombs on the winding mountain route on the Laotian frontier 230 miles south of Hanoi.

(APP Wirephoto by calbe from Sydney) SYDNEY (Reuters) -- About 1,300 troops of the new Aus- tralian force for Viet Nam marched through Sydney today in the biggest army parade seen here: since the Korean war. A tight security screen was placed around the New South Wales governor, Sir Roden Cut- ler, after a reported threat to assassinate him. Detectives shadowed him from Government House to the city's town hall where he took the salute from the troops. But there were no incidents. Slightly more than 100 mem- bers of the force left Tuesday by air for Viet Nam as an advance party. The others will go by sea and air during the next few weeks. HAD TO SERVE More than 450 of-the march- ers were national servicemen-- 20-year-old youths called up for two years army service under the Compulsary Selective Con- scription Act introduced last year. Senting conscripts to Viet Nam has been bifterly criticized by some sections of the com- munity and police feared dem- onstrations would occur during today's parade. TORONTO (CP)--The Ontario Pharmacists Association will ask its membership to endorse a prepaid, prescription drug scheme to be offered to the pro- vincial government as part of its medical care program, Har- old Smith, secretary-manager jof the association, said today.

The bodies of Mrs. Ann Sla- zenger, 45, night manager, and Edmund Thompson, 48, a por- ter, were found Wednesday morning at the Verdi Bar on the edge of a deteriorating section near downtown Detroit. owner Philip Laudicina, 45; Mrs. Ruth Dukes, 34, and porter Philip Hood, 67, were found in the Miami Bar, eight blocks north of Verdi's. Police said Mrs. Slazenger, Thompson, Laudicina, Hood and Mrs. Dukes all had been shot through the head. Homicide Inspector Robert Grindle called Wednesday's slaying an execution and said he was "pretty much convinced New Proposal Would Be In Medical Care Program cD ch more children, should be admin- istered by the government as part of OMSIP--Ontario Medi- cal Services Insurance Plan. Mr. Smith said that under the plan each prescription would cost the patient 35 cents. He said acceptance of the plan by the association's 1,600 mem- bers and the provincial govern- ment would make Ontario the first province to have medical care covering prescription drugs. Mr. Smith said the association has not yet approached the pro- vincial government on the plan and added: '"'We have nothing --_ to present to the govern~ ment," Last Feb. 23, the bodies of bar|- that the same men were respon-|= it eme 20 Watch ASK ENDORSEMENT He said the pharmacists' con- vention in Hamilton June 5-8 to endorse the presentation of the pharmacists' position to the gov- ernment. This is, he said, that a medi- cal care plan is not comprehen- sive and complete without cov- erage for prescribed drugs. "We feel that the Green Shield plan which has been proven in Windsor for about eight years, is a good guide." S Mr. Smith said the rates would not cover appliances, injections where oral drugs could be used, patent drugs and some types of vitamins. He said the premiums have been calculated to pay druggists an average of $1.30 for each prescription. This, with the 35 cents for each prescription paid directly by patients, would give the druggest an average $1.65 a prescription.
