"This resource, however, de- pends upon forests and water," said Mr. Berg. "For- ests themselves are natural re- sources which are required for many uses in our economy. "The old idea that we. must preserve our forests for recre- ational uses is misleading -- no forest will last forever. "There is no such thing as the forest primeval because our forests have been logged or burned," he said. Forests that we now see are not original but are regrets) ever the years. "What we now see are sec- ond and even third growth for- ests and even these, with im- proved forest fire prevention and protection methods are not enough," said Mr. Berg. "Forest fires have been a nat- ural occurrence long before the @ppearance of man." Mr. Berg says that natural resource management must re- gard parklands as multiple-use areas for both recreation and| forestry. "With careful planning, this can be accomplished," said Mr. Berg. "In some of the larger north- ern forests, we have. controlled logging and their is recogni- tion for park facilities. "In some provincial parks, hunting is allowed -- chiefly waterfowl," he said.

The provincial park system has been developed to meet the need of an ever increasing influx of campers and outdoor lovers, "The need is southern Ontario, of the land is privately owned," said Mr. Berg.

The speaker was John Engel, a' teacher of remedial reading at Donevan Collegiate. By EVELYN RICHARDS Little Theatre Member Two firsts occurred in Oshawa, Thursday night when The Osh- awa Little Theatre presented its first production of the season and the auditorium of Eastdale Collegiate and Vocational In- stitute hosted its first theatri- cal production, The play was F. Hugh: Her- bert's 'The Moon Is Blue," sophisticated in story line, dar- ing in dialogue, With so much depending on the dialogue, and where so much was of profes- sional standard, it is regret- table that some of the crisp dialogue was missed because of inaudibility. Happily, this did not prevent the tangy flavor of a good play from coming through delightfully. Director Janet Stevenson's educated comprehension of the play was evident in the mood and tempo maintained by the four members of the cast and their well rounded characterizu>; tions. Susan Clark gave us a Pattie O'Neill that was warmly believable and refreshing in her forthrightness and innocent worldliness. The scenes between experi- enced actors D'Arcy Smyth and Rex Williams, playing Donald Gresham and David Slater, were full of evidences of their good sense of timing in speech and movement. Pat Patterson, in a smaller supporting role, maintained the high quality of the acting. Even some repeti- tious and only partly~motivated hand movements failed to rob one of the sense of a constant building toward a stormy cli- max. It was really a tour de force jon the part both of theatre | group and the auditorium's equipment to stage such an ex- cellent first performance since the stage still lacks the installa- tion and completion of several features that will make it a model of stage facilities for | Of the students he had test- ed, he said, reading ability fell between grade three and -- 11. levels. He added that because 90 per cent of the course beyond] grade seven is book oriented, | students with reading difficul-| ties become frustrated, bored) and often a disciplinary prob-| lem, English, he went on, is al speaking language not a pic-| _ language. He quoted lack| reading at home, poor) speech habits, poor eyesight or hearing, shyness, speaking an-| other language and uninspired) material as some of the rea- @j\sons for poor reading ability, | To combat the problem he recommended checking pre- | schoolers for sight and speech| defects.

Last on his list was a fre-| quent and thorough testing pro-) gram throughout the child' s school life. "Too few schools," he said, "confine themselves with reme-| jdial reading. It must be start- led early and followed through." Little Theatre Play Presented At Eastdale Harry Chapman as set de- signer, ably assisted by Eric} Lloyd and Des Bailey on set, construction, displayed his usu- al stage expertise in overcom- ing obstacles. As a result the mise en scene was eye-catch- ing. Avi Rosen's costumes and the properties assembled by) Laurie Williams and Dorothy Birchall added immeasurably to the visual presentation.
