Award presentations are al-
most over for the season, with
the Emmy Awards' Show on
NBC-TV. These awards are
given each year for outstanding
performances on television
within the past year. Here are
some of the winners that are of
interest to CBC viewers.
My prediction came true
when Kin Stanley was named
'best actress of the year' for her
performance as the drug addict
in the Ben Casey segment "A
Cardinal Act of Mercy".
Among those she defeated was
Sylvia Sydney, whom we saw
as the mother in last October's
"Madman" episode on 'The
Defenders'. Don Gordon, who
played the title role in this pro-
duction, was a nominee for
'best actor' award, but lost out
to Trevor Howard, who had the
title role in "The Invincible
Mr. Disraeli" on Hallmark
Hall of Fame. The "Madman"
show, though, did win Emmys
for its writers.
Named 'best actress in a
series' was the star of "Hazel" ,
Shirley Booth, last year's win-
ner, defeating Lucille Ball,
Irene Ryan who plays Granny
on "Beverly Hillbillies", Shirl
Conway of "The Nurses", and
Mary Tyler Moore (The Dick
Van Dyke Show). 'Best series
actor' was also last year's win-
ner, E.G. Marshall, the Law-
rence Preston of "The Defen-
ders" . This show also won for
the 'best dramatic series' and
for 'best direction'.
'The supporting players'
awards went to Glenda Farrell,
from "A Cardinal Act of Mercy'
and Don Knotts, the comedian
from "The Andy Griffith Show".
And Carol Burnett (It wouldn't
be Award Night if she didn't
get one!) was praised as giving
an outstanding performance in
variety, defeating such greats
as Edie Adams, Mery Griffin,
Danny Kaye, and Andy Wil-
liams. Oddly enough, though,
her "Carol and Company" show
took a back seat when "The
Andy Williams Show" came out
on top for 'best variety show'.
His defeated the Garry Moore,
Red Skelton, and Edie Adams
Shows, in addition to Carol's
effort.
Named the 'best comedy
show' was "The Dick Van Dyke
Show" on a U.S. network. It
won over another U.S. S. show,
"McHale's Navy", plus two
that we see, the yearly "Danny
Kaye Show" and "Beverly Hill-
billies". The latter is the top-
rated production in the U, S, ;
strange it couldn't make it to
the top of the Emmy list. The
top musical show was "Julie
(Andrews) and Carol (Burnett)
at Carnegie Hall" and among
those it shut out, were the" Bell
Telephone Hour" and Judy Gar-
land's Show.
Canada had two fingers in
the pie, both of which came
out minus a plum. Kate Reid
was a nominee for 'best sup-
porting actress' for her role as
Queen Victoria in "The Invinc-
ible Mr, Disraeli" and Festival's
production of "The Offshore Is-
land"was a nominee in the
'best foreign production'. This
award went to an English pre-
sentation. NBC's documentary
on Berlin, "The Tunnel" was
named the 'program of the
year'. It defeated two produc-
tions that we saw, "The Danny
Kaye Show", with Lucille Ball,
and The Defenders' "Madman"
segment.

It was in February of this
year, that a CBC team, work-
ing in northern Canada, died
while filming a forthcoming
"Camera Canada" production.
Last week, the production was
presented, as planned, a mem-
orial to the three men respon-
sible. And a truly haunting
memorial it was, too. In every
photographer's well-planned
shot, you could almost feel the
desire for adventure, the res-
pect and love that these men
felt for this land that had drawn
them into its midst and would,
eventually, claim their lives,
"Wilderness" was a study of the
remote areas of British Colum-
bia, Alberta, and The Yukon,
and the camera work was sup-
erb. The show, in fact, must
have made many people want
to trade this maddening, fright-
ening pace amid speeding cars,
blaring television sets, and
push-button appliances that
don't work half the time, for
the peaceful, friendly simpli-
city of nature as it was meant
to be. I know I'm safe in say-
ing that this is the finest sight
to have crossed the airwaves in
some time, and a beautiful tri -
DON'T MISS THIS ONE!
WESTERN ONTARIO'S BIGGEST, BEST, MOST SUCCUL ENT
BUILDING YOUR
OWN HOUSE
Under what circumstances
should you build a house in-
stead of buying?
There are several answers.
You may have difficulty in
finding a ready -built house that
meets your particular needs. It
may be better to build if you
hold strong opinions on what
special features a house should
have. Location of available
houses for sale might not be sat-
isfactory to you.
Whatever the reasons, the
ideal way to go about building
is to engage an architect. His
experience will enable you to
get the house you want at the
price you're willing to pay.
And the architect takes over all
the worries that go with build-
ing. His fee is well worth the
time and trouble that you save.
Another way is to buy stock
plans and have a contractor
build from them. But be sure
that you have a suitable loca-
tion and that the design you
choose is adaptable to the site.

Ed Sullivan's comforting
message, "We're rooting for
you, Arlene", as he closed his
show last week, was directed
to Arlene Francis who was, at
that moment, lying in a Man-
hattan hospital after a two -
car collision on Long Island.
The 51 -year-old actress and
panelist was on her way to New
York to appear on television's
"What's My Line?" , when her
car skidded on wet pavement
and went out of control, crash-
ing into another car and killing
one of its passengers. She suf-
fered a brain concussion, bro-
ken collarbone, and multiple
bruises and scratches. At last
report, she was in fair condition,
but will be away from her tele-
vision duties for quite a long
period of time.

Pictures of Mission Band Were
Taken for Scrapbook
The regular meeting of the
Mission Band of St, Andrew's
Presbyterian Church, opened
with a greeting to the children
by Mrs, Ken McKague.
"Birthday Prayer" was sung,
as those celebrating their birth-
days put their pennies in the
birthday cake.
A description of the M. G,
Abey Memorial Home in India
was given by Mrs. McKague,
and the children discussed what
some of the needs of this home
for orphans would be.
The roll calls were taken by
Mrs. John Currie and Mrs. Or-
vil Hastings. Offering was re-
ceived by Ricky Smith, Davila
Fish, Grace Corrin and Ronnie
McGee.
An introduction to the film-
strip, "A New Language for
Kim Po", was given. This was
the story of how the church in
Canada helped Kim Po's Kor-
ean family in time of flood,
sickness, and war.
The following children con-
ducted a quiz on the filmstrip:
Douglas Leitch, Sandra Lee,
Janet McGee, Stephen Cruick-
shank, Ronnie Perrott, Janice
MacTavish and John Stephens.
