Cran- field, of the Adult Services Department, McLaughlin Pub- lic Library. With Spring in the offing, | the minds of many people turn} to summer travel, and in par- ticular boating. The three book reviews wnat follow relate in some manner to travel by boat. The first is one to pass the time away, until boating begins, a travel book by Adrian Hayter. The second a book of boat cruises titled Over the Horizon, and the third a book on practi- cal piloting and seamanship. Business in Great Waters is the story of the author's single- handed voyage from England, via the Panama Canal, to his home in New Zealand in a 25- foot yacht with small diesel en- gine. This voyage completed the author's sail around the world. His earlier trip which took six years to complete, is describ- ed in Sheila in the Wind, also by Adrian Hayter. Adrian Hayter appears to 'be rather a melancholy, lonesome man. Much of his book is de- voted to his quest for peace. Several paragraphs are devoted to his mental attitude, in his search for heaven on earth. The book is laced with much quite sound philosophy. This search- ing of the author's mind some- what breaks the flow of the story. : It is fascinating, however, to travel with Hayter, from his carefree selection of a yacht, through the outfitting, but the wisdom of which becomes evi- dent as the rigors of the journey develop. His skill and courage as a seaman stamp him as a re- markable person. His ability to rig the sails in a manner that they would steer the ship under certain wind conditions, allow- | "Bill" Robinson shares with the ing him freedom from the tiller for badly needed sleep gained him many days during his trip. Nobody will finish this book without having thoroughly en- joyed the adventure of a sea cruise with Hayter. In Over The Horizon, author reader 14 of his most memorab!2 cruises. Mr. Robinson, a grad- uate of Princeton University, lives at Sea Bright, N.J., and has enjoyed a lifetime of plea- sure cruising. Currently Vice- President and Exxecutive Editor of Yachting Magazine, he has written many books on the sub- ject. Most of the cruises described were taken in company with his wife Jane, and included on oc- casion their three teen-age chil- dren, or at times another couple. Their boat (an auxiliary sloop 24 foot long, 20 feet at water line, with a keel enclosing a centre board) is an adaptable boat for their way of cruising. It's size and design permits it to be trailered behind their car, saving much time getting to the crusing area, and ex- tending greatly the field of their travel. For auxiliary power they use a small 5.5 h.p. outboard motor. Their after-cabin top is a canvas hood on aluminum rod framing, which permits full standing head room, and is re- movable when desired. While most of the cruises des cribed were taken in this sloop, various other boats ranging from fiberglass outboards to a 32 foot Express Cruiser power- ed by twin 250 h.p. inboards were chartered when the cruis- ing ahead was just too far from home.

His cruises range from fresh water sailing in the areas of Picton and King- ston, in Lake Ontario, to the Indians Were By CYNTHIA LOWRY NEW YORK (AP) -- NBC's Projected 20 Thursday night used its characteristic story- telling technique to show once again how the noble Indian of America's fertile Great Plains was shoved aside by the whites, their buffalo herds decimated, the good lands expropriated. The familiar story was hardly helped by the technique--purp- lish prose of the nattaion on top of archives material includ- ing old pictures. At the outset, these pictures of Indian faces--fierce, gentle, sad, angry, handsome, ugly, painted, and scarred--plus film of the landscape, were interest- ing. But an hour was too much of the same thing. Three of the brightest talents of Broadway musicals--writers Betty Comden and Adolph Green plus composer Jule Styne-- slapped together a musical fan- tasy which was Thursday night's offering on ABC's Stage 67. Called I'm Getting Married, it was the story of a young couple on the verge of matri- mony when true love is detoured by the boy's sudden promotion. Anne Bancroft -- an offbeat choice for comedy, song and dance--played the girl who is frightened into nightmarish fan- NBC Show Tells How | Use Marijuana, LSD? ANNE MARIE O'NEILL paying for it.

I wouldn't like to try it. I'm not even curi- ous because I know what it can do to people. It brings out the worst in people. I don't even think it should be experimented with on ani- mals."

His bock is well il- lustrated with photographs tak-| en on each of these cruises. An interesting book, especially if the lure of cruising is in your blood. Boating in Canada. The author} Garth Griffiths, a professional} engineer, graduate of the Uni- versity of British Columbia, a boater by hobby, and a charter member and Rear Commander of Training Systems of the Can- adian Power Squadron is well- qualified in this field. The book is a complete text- book dealing with all phases of boating, and closcly parallels the course taught by the Cana dian Power Squadron. The author proceeds from an exxplanation of the fundamental vocabulary used in boating through the maze of technical knowledge which can make the difference between the safe op: eration of your boat and serious blundering. The subjects covered vary from knot tying, rope splicing, the recognition of various types of boats beth power .and sail, boat handling, power and sail, piloting and navigation, to a study of weather, first ald and lifesaving information, '"'rules of the road" written and unwrit- ten, courtesies in common prac- tice and many other items of pracitcal value to the boater, be he a novice, or Captain of a Yacht. The book is well-indexed and contains many photographs. It can be highly recommended to increase one's knowledge of this highly popular sport of boating.

Communities such as Inuvik in the Northwest Territories are holding weekly film shows to full auditoriums. With a pop- ulation of almost 2000, Inuvik is one of the larger centres in the program.

But Boone has recently teamed up with, of all people, England's famed Beat- les. Boone has arranged for his publishing company to repro- duce oil portraits of the group done by Dutch artist Leo Jan- sen, major Canadian city from Vancouver to Montreal. The group hopped aboard a jet in February, accompanied by about $30,000 worth of equipment, pulled off their Swinging - set boots, ruffled their mod - mod hair, and headed for London on what was to be a nine - month European tour.

He plays gui- tar and harmonica, also writes half the music performed by the aggregation. Garry Peterson, c,nsidered one of the finest rock 'n' roll drummers in the country, is a show business veteran who came to Guess Who by way of radio and the stage. Bass player Jim Kale does some of the lead singing and composes the odd song. Burton Cummings, latest member to join the group, plays piano and organ and does most of the lead singing. Originally known as Al and the Silvertones, a five - man combo that included three of the present group, they started in 1961 and moved through the pop music scene with another two name changes. Then they changed the name to The Guess Who and, they say, this must have been a lucky turning point because things started to happen. Their recordings now are distributed in 43 countries and they were voted Canada's top vocal - instrumental group in 1965. They drew 38,000 enthusi- astic teeny-boppers at an ap- pearance in the Pacific Na- tional Exhibition last year at Vancouver.
