THE OSHAWA LITTLE Theatre has some ambitious plans for the 1966-67 season. Its not all because of Can- ada's Centennial anniversary-- the OLT will make its debut in a new home sometime next Oct. : The spacious and_ ultra- modern new. Eastdale_ Col- legiate auditorium will be its focal point of operation. THE OLT's prime concern at this time is to bolster its sub- scription and -- membership lists -- such will be the purpose of a campaign to be held in the week following Labor Day. Harry Chapman, one of the three. OLT members with the longest service record, said this week that detailed plans for the campaign will be announced soon. He is currently compiling data for a history of the little theatre in Oshawa. He said that the Oshawa Drama League-- forerunner of the OLT -- was organized in 1893. The original OLT was organized in the early 1920's, but disbanded in the mid - 1930's. Mr. Chapman, D'Arcy Smyth and Evalyn Richards were largely instru- mental in re-organizing the OLT in 1951. It has had a _ suc- cessful career since. Mr. Chapman, _incidentially will be 'taking a one-week course for Little Theatre direc- tors at McMaster University, 'Mariposa' Folk Festival Attracts Top Musicians TORONTO (CP)--It is three} years since the Mariposa Folk Festival was: "booted out," as the promoters put it, of Orillia, the model for Stephen Leacock's imaginary little Ontario town. Rowdyism and the fear of rowdyism forced it to move again the following year. But now it has come to rest at In- nis Lake, a 100-acre privately- owned resort 40 miles northwest of Toronto. Tighter control, including 50 private security guards as well as provincial police, has kept away young idlers just looking for a riot or an orgy, and the summer and winter weekends now are what was originally planned--festivals of folk mu- sic. There are two indications of the success of the enterprise and its public and artistic res- pectability. Don Jackson Back On Ice Oshawa's professional world skating champion, Donald Jack- son, is back on the ice for an- Other season. About three and a half months of rehearsals for the Ice Follies world premier in Los Angeles began June 15 and will continue to Sept. 7. Mr. Jackson is com- pleting the fifth year of his six- year contract with the Follies. "Don and Joanne spent their honeymoon on ice last Decem- ber because of a show engage- ment but they spent -a_ three week holiday in Hawaii this June," said his mother Mrs. aa Jackson, 110 Park Rd. Joanne is also rehearsing for the Ice Follies. Mr. Jackson will be inter- viewed in an hour-long show of the Ice Folies, Nov.2, to be televised across Canada and the U.S. Master of cermonies will be television personality, Don Adam, "Don will: always skate. He will become one of the great teachers of ice skating when he no longer skates for the public," said Mrs. Jackson. One is that it won the exclu- sive right to the name of Mari- posa, over Orillia's protests, and the other is that top-rank- ing musicians of the folk world, such as Pete Seeger and Buffy Sainte-Marie, forgo night-club engagements to sing at Mari- posa concerts for union min- imum rates. THOUSANDS GATHER This summer's festival is Aug. 5 to 7 at the Innis Lake estate and the headliners in- clude Pete Seeger, fan: Tyson and Gordon Lightfoot. The last two are Canadians with an in- ternational reputation in folk music. There are concerts with about eight acts or individuals on each bill on each of the three days, and nine study workshops on Sunday.

SHE'S BOUND FOR EMERALD ISLE Oshawa Miss Enters A pretty, young Oshawa Miss will be representing Can- ada in the famous Rose of Tralee Festival to be held in County Kerry, Ireland, later this month. Twenty-one-year-old Miss Col- lette O'Sullivan, of 213 Mont- rave Ave.. leaves Oshawa on August 25 to compete in the Festival. The event will be a double occasion for the Oshawa girl who works as a teletypist with Generai Motors. She will be able to see her father and mother again. Miss . O'Sullivan left Emerald Isle three years to settle in Canada. Since that time she has not been back to see her parents, PASSAGE BOQKED This year she intended to make the trip for sure. She had even booked her passage to Ireland. Then, quite out of the blue, she won the Canadian elimina- tor competition held in Toronto two weeks ago. Her prize as well as a chance to compete in the Rose of Tralee Festival is a month's all expenses paid trip to her homeland. "As right back and told him to booking. I told him ing for nothing." If she wins the festival will win a wardrobe of clothes and a European trip. Irish girls from all over the world will be competing in the Festival. "Competition will be tough; but I would like to win," said Miss O'Sullivan. "The greatest thing about the whole trip will be seeing my parents again. It has been a long time. They live in Coun- ty Kerry too, so I won't have to travel too far." the ago went agent my 20- won I travel cancel I was as I to the £o0n She " Rose of Tralee Festival . MISS COLLETTE O'SULLIVAN Venerable Hollywood Device Ties - In' Dissimilar Projects HOLLYWOOD (AP) -- Mil- onaire Conrad Hilton broke Zround one recent evening for an addition to his Beverly Hil- ton Hotel. Lending glamor to the scene, as cameras clicked, were screen stars Merle Oberon and Red Taylor. Why: had they been invited to participate? The title of the movie they are making his Hotel, This is.a venerable Hollywood device, the "tie-in" or "tie-up." Two dissimilar projects team up for mutual benefit. Tie-ins have many variations and challenge originators' ingenuity. 'The 1946 movie, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, was about a dreamer, A studio 'aide per- suaded Los Angeles city offi- Cials te stenci! on the pavement at' 3,600 intersections: 'Don't be a Mitty when crossing the street." Beneficiaries were the box office and traffic safety. A common tie-in is the far- away premiere where the story originated or was filmed. Local authorities co-operate in bally- hooing not only the picture but their community as a tourist attraction. The Music Man wau screened first in composer Meredith Will- son's home town, Mason City, Iowa. Stagecoach was unveiled in Denver. -MGM_ premiered Gone with the' Wind in Atlanta twice--in 1936 and upon reissu- ing it in 1961. Armed services tie in. when they can benefit and the theme is. appropriate. Most wartime airmen wanted to be_ pilots. WORK HARD FOR RICE | In Southeast Asia it takes seven hours of labor to produce 20 kilograms of rice, against seven minutes in highly mech- anized countries.
