Recently a Toronto television
columnist commented about the
CBC placing the P. G. Wode-.
house series at 6 p.m. on Wed
nesdays. “What adult in his
right mind watches TV at
6:00? he wrote. In a subsequent
column he blasted away at the
CBC again . . . ‘‘but have sche
duled1,ft at,.this rotten hour,—,
the cocktail .hour in civilized
homes’’.
Pipbably the Toronto col
umnist was being humorous
when he said people have cock
tails at 6 p.m. He can’t be
serious, In a city with over one
million papulation (it's almost
two million) I doubt if you*
could find 2,000 households sip
ping cocktails nightly between
6 and 7 p.m.
I reside in an area with a
population of aver 100,000
people and I’m certain that it
would be difficult to find 100
households 'mdulging every
evening at the hour of six.

The columnist, Dennis Braith
waite of the Globe & Mail,
writes a brilliant column,
ing 'the readers well informed
about the. broadcasting industry
and making suggestions to the
various networks, the Board off
Broadcast Governors 'and the
government.
But hold it! There was an
other recent column which sur
prised me. It was the review
oRthe “Festival” appearance of
GlOnn Gould and Yehudi Men
uhin. Pte began this column by
reviewing what he had .written
(all* good) about Gould months
before and then apologized for
saying it. He wrote “ . , . the
program was really terrible”.
Among the remarks' about
Gould- u ; to .flop his mouth
open and shut like a beached
based. /' ■ •
And to me, it was the end
when he wrote about their aje
pare! which went like this . ? .
“letting bath Gould and Men
uhin appear on camera not in
tails or even tpxes, but wear-,
ing drab, unpressed business
suits . . ✓
I saw .the program. The
music 'was superbly performed.
It wasn’t a fashion show, but
who cares?
