If I don’t exude the ent- . husiasm and excitement that generally accompanies descrip­tions of the international exhib-' ition at Montreal, it is not be­ cause I don’t think it Is pretty good. I do. But I am old enough and square enough that I don’t get ecstatic over abstract concoc. tions in luminous brilliance, pictures that jump around on moving screens and discordant sounds blaring from stereo loud* speakers. I prefer the more conven­ tional and old fashioned art forms and in case you have come to the conclusion that Expo is just for the jet set, let me , set your heart at rest, Nearly every time you turn around there is a band shell with a fancy-coated band belt­ ing out old familiar marches and popular tunes while minia­ ture amphitheatres serve up canned music sweet and low as you munch a hamburg on the benches provided. It is perhaps in the field of architecture that Expo has wrought the most spectacular synthesis between the swingers and the squares. Out of an assortment of surrealist sha­ pes, weird enough to satisfy the most radical modernist, comes an overall picture pleas­ ing to the eye of the traditiona- list as well. It is not only that one can find elaborate Burmese pagodas and Ethiopian temples in fami­ liar shapes and colors; it is the impression that the whole affair has been designed for people to enjoy, either by strolling, casually looking, or by getting deeply involved in the activity as well. I guess it is really the “people aspect” of it that makes it P f R S 0 N A L S THEATRE —r CLINTON Box Office Opens at 8:00 Mr. and Mrs. Harold W. Lobb.

Expo has made history in Canada in var­ ious ways, but none of them more important than in the way it has handled people and the way people have handled it. First of course was the shock on the pessimistic Canadian mentality to find that people really wanted to come to Expo. They came by the millions, pouring through gates so fast that even the computers couldn’t keep up with them. Officials were a little embarrassed when -they were not able to identify the millionth visitor, but by the time they were looking for the 20 millionth the embarrassment ■ was forgotten. The other, and more fascina­ ting, aspect of the people phase is the relaxed and congenial atmosphere as they mill about or stand patiently in long lines waiting to jet into the pavilions. You can draw your own con. elusions from the response to Expo and if you get there you can make your own assessment. Personally I choose to take it as an indication that Canada has the latent ability to do just about any thing it wants to tackle, Espo was a great thing to tackle. I’m anxious to see what is next. I hope it is something imaginative in the field of in. ternational development.
