The high school students had
the opportunity of viewing a
first rate film last Friday. It is a
film which was presented
recently to Waterloo and
Western University students and
is entitled "The War Game".
Although the situation
presented is hypothetical, it is a
shockingly realistic documentary
on the probable holocaust of a
Third World War.
It is a movie which, in my
opinion, should be shown to
young people of all countries
since, as the narrator warns,

"Mickey One" featured fear and
immorality; "And God Created
Woman" — more sex and
immorality.
What really angers me is the
fact that on two of those nights
the films shown at 11:40 p.m.
were comedies that the little
ones would have enjoyed.
I telephoned Mr. Armstrong,
Programming Director for
CFPL-TV, and he said the
current trend to adult movies at
9 p.m. Friday will continue
because it is "prime time and has
a vast viewing audience which
demands "good" movies."
He is probably right about
"prime time" and "vast viewing
audience" but I am willing to
bet the "audience" is made up
mainly of children and their
baby-sitters.
I cannot afford to take a
private "Public Opinion Poll" . .
so would you ask those
responsible parents in the
Channel 10 viewing area to
telephone Mr. Armstrong at
CFPL-TV, 434-2115 or write to
him and give him their views on
these questions:
.1.-What do you-think of•the
movies shown on CFPL-TV at 9
p.m. Friday?
2. Who watches them most,
you or your children?
3. Would you prefer to watch
Adult movies at a later hour on
Friday if your children could
watch something more suitable
for them at the earlier hour?
A small sample of public
opinion — having spoken to
members of four local women's
groups I find they are in
agreement with me. In fact, it
was pointed out that more and
more people do their shopping
on Friday night and don't
bother with TV until after 10
p .m .”
If any reader is in agreement
with the above letter please lend
me your support by writing to
Mr. Armstrong, CFPL-TV,
London Ont., protesting that
station's Friday night
programming.
to ask for your aid in this matter
which, I believe, is important to
all of our children.
"As mother of a large family,
I am quite concerned about the
current crop of Very Adult
movies being shown on
CFPL-TV, Channel 10, London,
on Friday evenings at 9 p.m.
Our younger children are
allowed to stay up later on
Friday nights to watch TV, as is
the casP in most families.
In our area we get only two
channels and for three weeks in
a row we could not allow our
children to watch Channel 10
because of the type of movie
being shown. ("Ship of Fools"
