CANADA'S ONLY WOMAN DOG CATCHER
—Central Press Canadian
Canada's only woman dog catcher never wears gloves nor
uses a net to capture stray. animals. She 'prefers to pick them
tip in her arms or kneel and comfort them on the spat, as she
is seen doing here with "Susie," A beautiful shepherd dog,
"Susie" was sentenced by the court to be shot for having bitten
a child. The dog was parolled to Mrs. Florence Poole of Chat-
ham, Ont., and is now the pride of the Poole kennels, and a
friend of kiddies., Few dogs make a move to run away from
matronly Mrs. Poole, whose reputation for kindness to pets seems
to have reached the ears of every animal in five municipalities
of Wallaceburg, Harwich, Raleigh, Dover and Chatham, of which
she is official dog catcher. "I guess I'm a character—but I love
the wrirk." she declared.
Have you ever- had the feeling
in the movies that somewhere he-
fore . you, had seen that crystal
chandelier, that, pair of Ming vas-
es, or the gown worn by the West-
ern heroine as she steps from a
stage coach you are certain, you
have seen in another movie? Well,
chances are, it's _the same one.
And the only- difference between
the movies and the theatre is
that you're more apt to see the
same furniture, drapes, mirrors,
musical .instruments, tea trays
and bric-a-brac on the. stage than
on film.
The cost of props is a big item.
in the high cost of stage produc-
tion, When the show is a success
and has run, the expense of pro-
perities is absorbed. They're all
worn out anyway, But when the
play is a flop, ' that is another
matter. A producer finds himself
next to bankruptcy after a week's
run, with thousands. of - dollars
worth of expensive costumes
Which can't be sold',
Some of these stage props can
be converted into cash by selling
them—or renting them—to other
theatres and television stations,
Sometimes they are stored for
future use. Thit is so expensive
that. it is often cheaper to burn
the stuff.
It is, a pity -some of the church
players' and little theatre groups
in Canada are so far from Broad-
ivay props shops. It is getting
harder and harder to borrow old
picture frames from local attics.
It is surprising what great pains
are taken by entertainment people
to make, props appear authentic,
though.
When the film "Mutiny on the
Bounty" was m a d e, Charles
Laughton, who took the part of
Capt. Bligh, went to see Gieves'
of London, the clothiers, to check
on the type of costume worn by
the captain 'during the famous
mutiny.
Gieves' did better than Laugh-
ton expected. They searched back
through their files to 1787 and
found actual unifprm expense
statements, showing Capt, Bligh's
exact sizes.
Words have 'a great' tendency to
fall into misuse over the years,
and a good example of this is the
loose usage which is causing the
current clash between "Theatre"
and "Cinema."
Theatre—or 'theater, as "she is
spoke in the United States"—
comes from the Greek word "thee-
trots," meaning an arena for see-
ing shows. It traditionally refers
to play-acting on a stage by ac-
tors before an audience, and in
England is never confused with
the word "cinema," which geher-
ally means a theatre for the show-
ing of motion pictures, or the
flicks..
Up to ,this point in Canada we
have not had much need to draw
a distinction between the terms,
because we have had no national
THURSDAY, JULY 8, 1956
dramatic theatre. The words have
been used interchangeable with
very little conflict. Whether we
said theatre, or cinema, or even
'gallery," we meant the movies,
But that must all be changed, Not
just because Douglas Campbell, of
Shakespearean Festival fame, says
so; but because Canada is becom-
ing conscious of the dramatic art
and here and there in little com-
munity halls and school auditor-
itiMS all over the country there is
an honest thespian population
growing .up. We have need of a
language .to describe it.
It may be well for us to. start
using the word ...theatre when we
mean a house of live dramatic art,
the cinema when we mean films,
the music hall when we are think-
ing of musicals, and concert hall
wl:en symphony music and virt-
uosity is in our minds.
But .in so doing we- must take
especial care to mark ,the .differ-
ence between the stage and the
hospital operating room, since the
English call their operating rooms
"theatres."
The •plans for a television stat-
ion in the new city of Kitimat in
British Columbia reminds me of
some figures issued recently by
the authority controlling TV in
Canada.' Seventy-five percent of
us, the figures say, now have
television coverage. This cover-
age comes from 28 existing trans-
miffing stations. Eight new ones
are On the way.
Of course, not 75 per cent of
the people have TV in their hom-
es. Mr. A. Davidson Dunten,
chairman of the C.B.C. board of
governors, puts the figure at 40
per cent of all Canadian farldlies.
Canada, nevertheless, has more
TV stations than any other coun-
try in the world, save for the
U.S.; and only two countries have
as many receiving sets. There are
1,500,000 sets in Canada. One in
every 10 Canadians, has TV.
Remember when we crowded
around our first radio, with head-
phones, pressed close in order to
pick the music out from the stat-
ic? Even central heating was a
novelty then. It was a long time
after this before the' gramaphone
with its big horn disappeared from
the parlor.
And' yet, how loudly we com-
plain when there is' a short break
in the image on our television
sets!
