The court Company Will Slash Prices On New Color TV Models By THE CANADIAN PRESS Peter Munk, president of Clairtone Sound Corp. Ltd. of Toronto, said Thursday the firm will slash prices on some of its 1968 color television models by up to $50. Mr. Munk was commenting in an interview on price reductions d by large factur- ers in the U.S. on new lines, ranging up to $30 on 18-inch models. Clairtone's complete price structure will be announced when the firm unveils its new lines in New York June 26, he said. Sales of color TV sets in Can- ada this year have lagged be- hind forecasts. Last fall, it was predicted that 1967 sales would reach 165,000 . units--an estimate now revised to 140,000. Swimmer Surfaces After 15 Hrs. Under VILLEFRANCHE, France (Reuters)--American swimmer Mary Margaret Revell today abandoned her attempt to live under the sea for 72 hours in a Mediterranean bay, surfacing after slightly more than 15 hours. Miss Revell plunged into the Mediterranean here in a skin- tight rubber suit Thursday in an attempt to stay underwater for three days and become the world's first aquanaut. She was testing man's ability to adapt to a completely dif- ferent environment and also aimed at carrying out biologi- cal research at a special work area about one mile from her living base. The 29 - year - old swimmer from: Shafter, Calif., a onetime polio victim, assembled equip- ment worth $33,000 and a team of underwater experts for the| : experiment. Miss Revell gave up because of cold and fatigue following the| : failure of two parts of the ex- perimental equipment. Her face mask put painful Pressure on her jaw and a specially - designed hot - water bed in which she was to have slept did not keep her warm. RUNS IN THE FAMILY LONDON (CP) -- Tucker told a London court he was quite capable of identifying a man who stole his wallet, even after drinking 40 bottles of Irish stout. The astonished judge said: "Surely you must be dead. It must be your ghost we 'are looking at." Tucker said drinking capacity "runs in the family'. A. E. JOHNSON, 0.D. OPTOMETRIST 14% King St. East 723-2721 George] : C. A. Pollock, chairman of Do- minion Electrohome Industries Ltd. Kitchener, said his com- pany has to remain competitive! but has no plans to follow the' price-slashing trend in t he U.S. "We have to have volume to be properly productive, and the volume of production is being in- hibited .by an additional 27 per cent levied on the manufactur- ers' prices by sales and excise taxes." He said U.S. TV makers can cut prices because they do not have such taxes. RCA Victor Co. Ltd., of Mont- real, declined comment on next year's price structure. RCA's parent company, Radio Cor- poration of America, is one U.S. firm to announce lower prices. After suggesting retail prices of $399.95 on the low end of its 18-inch color line, the company cut its price to $369.95. The price of color TV sets in Canada is about $700 for 19-inch models and $850 for 22 - inch models. Extra large models range as high as $3,000.

Mitchell of the political science department of the University of Calgary said Thursday. In a study of the court's activities since the right of ap- peals to the privy council was abolished, Mr. Mitchell argued that the practice of seven and five - man panels in constitu- tional cases must be regarded as very dubious practice. : The full panel should also hear all capital cases and the court should never act with less than seven. He also recom- mended that any case, in which there is more than one dissent- ing opinion, should be reheard by the full panel, He told the annual meeting of of the Canadian Political Science Association that the predictable voting pattern of the judges could leave the dis- appointed litigant with the feel- ing "that his loss was due more to the luck of the draw than to the merits of his case." Prospects Good For Export Goal OTTAWA (CP)--Trade Minis- ter Winters says it is likely Canada will reach this year's $11,250,000,000 export goal. He told the Commons trade and economic affairs committee Thursday that first-quarter ex- ports of $500,000,000 represent a 17-per-cent increase over trade during the same period last year. The increase came despite "slower economic growth this year in some of our principal export markets, particularly in the United States and the Eu- ropean Economic Community."

He called the firings 'unfair' and suggested "'it should be pos- sible to assess the capabilities and performance of an em- ployee in a month or two." House Leader Leslie Rown- tree accused Mr. Bryden of presenting only one side of the cases' and said it was an NDP failing to champion a cause without checking the facts. "You don't care a damn" about accuracy, Mr. Rowntree said. Mr. Bryden then questioned whether "'the house leader is fit to be in the house." "What do you mean by that?" Mr. Rowntree asked.. He re- ceived no answer. Liberal Leader Robert Nixon said the specifics of the cases should have been brought be- fore the legislature's committee on. government commis- sions where witnesses could be called. JUSTIFIES ACTION But Mr. Bryden was justified in bringing the cases up in the house because the government had denied the opposition an op- portunity to quiz the Civil Serv- ice Commission in committee, he said. Mr. Bryden said a civil serv- ant hired on probation for a year now "has no right to raise a grievance over dismissal." "He can be fired for any rea- son or for no reason and without any reason being given, and he has no redress of any kind whatever." Mr. MacNaughton said griev- ance procedures were worked out with the Civil Service Asso- ciation, After six months an em- ployee on probation is entitled to file a grievance regarding conditions of employment only. The treasurer said an em- ployee would not be fired with- out good reason.
