OLD WORLD TRADITION | | Newfoundland Gets Funds For Church Resto¥ation By DON McLEOD ST. JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP)--Use of one piece of Newfoundland history to assure the preserva- tion of another has succeeded in raising $1,400 for restoration of Christ Church at Quidi Vidi, a monument to an early ill-fat- ed ecumenical movement. Mrs. Norman Gooderich, pub- licity. chairman of the . New- foundland Historic Trust, said Thursday night the showing of the movie The Viking Sept. 8 has netted enough to assure payment for heavy structural work on the 133-year-old church. About $1,200 was realized from the showing of the movie --Canada's first feature sound film--in Memorial University's Little Theatre. Another $200 has come in since then as dona- ltions, possibly resulting from two subsequent television screenings of the movie here jJast month, The money brought cash returns from all drives to $5,- 400. About $1,500-$2,000 in mate- rials has been amassed and vol- for some 30 to 50 per cent of the reconstruction task. BUILT IN 1824 An Anglican place of worship since 1843, the church was built nine years before that, ostensi- bly to serve Anglicans, Method- ists and. Congregationalists in Quidi Vidi village, a tradition- steeped fishing enclave now encircled by St. John's, Some say the early -church- union movement failed over the distribution of rum tots to workmen building the struc- ture, a practice to which the tee-talling Methodists teok exception. Eventually the church fell into such disrepair that Angli- can authorities at St. John's said it would be cheaper to build a new one than it would to-restore it and, in any event, Quidi Vidi residents could eas- ily attend other churches in St. John's. They de-consecrated it and it was to be torn down when the historic trust was formed, pri- marily to save the church. The problem was money and donations the thing that put the first phase of work over the top and assured contractors their bills would be paid was the decision to show The Viking for the first time in Newfoundland, where it was made. SHOT IN CHURCH Scenes in the story, a por- trayal of the life of sealers ashore, were. shot in the church itself by cameramen working' for New York director Varick Frissell in 1930. unteer labor has been assuredidespite a fund drive and other Progressive Oshawa needs Progressive Conservative AB WALKER To continue his good work For the City of Oshawa as a member of the JOHN ROBARTS GOVERNMENT OF ONTARIO ""Ab.Walker has my full support as the Conservative candidate in Oshawa Riding, and Ab. Walker's municipal experience, plus his experience as a trade union member, has made him a very valuable asset to our government." "| have been very much impressed with the represen- tation that we have had in Toronto through Albert Walker. As our member, he impressed me with his keen interest in the problems of the people he rep- resents. He has made a good member of the govern- ment of Ontario and | am strongly supporting him." ERNEST MARKS -- Mayor of "| nominated Ab. Walker. | am voting for Ab Walker on October 17th, because he is a down to earth man. He says what he thinks. He is hard work- ing and by virtue of his record-as a member of the Provincial Government, he is the best member Osh- awa Riding has ever had. RE--ELECT ALBERT WALKER He hired the sealer Viking, along with its captain, for trips to the ice to shoot scenes of storms on the ice which many say have never been equalled. His newly-formed Newfound- land-Labrador Film Co.. made of Hollywood to distribute the film, but there was a require- ment it include a love story. Frissel worked this in, setting up a climatic re-union of seal- er-hero Luke and his girl, Mary Jo, in Christ Church. Hollywood wanted better shots of icebergs and Frissel tried) to oblige, sailing again on the Viking with a cargo of dynamite he was going to use to turn an iceberg" over--an tacle--and film the event.
