"Show of The Week', which will have al- re.:c begun by the time you :ead this, sounds to the as though it may be the Canadian - produced highlight of the year. It will he a variety series, con- sisting of 14 one-hour dramas, which will he much like last year's 'Playdate' series; four Wayne and Shuster specials; six programs entitled "Wayne and Shuster Take An Affection- ate Look at " with film biographies of the lives of the world's finest comedians (W.

It was taped in Toronto last June, There will also be three Perry Como spe- cials which will originate with an American network, so it will be nice to have old Per back again, even if it is for only three shows a year. Next week's production (Cctober5th) will be the first dramatic of- fering of the season. Entitled "I Ran Into This Zulu", it is a two -character play written by a 36 -year-old playwright from New York, Malcolm Marmor- stein, and it is expected to reach Broadway eventually. It is the story of a successful Ne- gro actor, and a famous Am- erican dramatist who has been commissioned to write a play for him. It stars American dra- matist who has been commis- sioned to write a play for him. It stars American actor Billy Dee Williams as the actor, and our own Jack Creley as the playwright. Its Broadway cast has not yet been chosen. The first "Instant TV" show from Europe will be seen on October 12th, starring France's Juliette Greco and Germany's Kessler Twins (Remember them from the Red Skelton Show?) in a production fileted in Munich. They will be followed on the 19th, by the first Wayne and Shuster Hour, starring the top Canadian comics, and special guests. This, I believe, is go- ing to he a fabulous series, and one which will really place Ca- nada at the top of the variety - producing networks in North America. Eight p.rn. is the show's tithe. 1)--4)--1) Following this variety hour at nine on Monday evenings, will be an English suspense ser- ies entitled "Danger Man". This series is no stranger to us; we saw it three seasons ago, but in its thirty -minute format, It is now an hour in length and its star, security agent John Drake, dr. a 4010 BUILDING TAKING SHAPE — Construction of the wash- rooms at the Riverside Park is well &ono.

This means his job now demands more responsibility and more dedication, as he travels throughout the world in the cause of world peace. Patrick McGoohan is again the star, with many guest stars to support him throughout the coming weeks. 0--0--0 Tuesday evening is an eve- ning of laughs, to be supplied by two greats in their class, Jack Benny and Danny Kaye„ Both in CBS -Television City - originated shows, they have now moved into Canada, after many successful seasons in the U.S. Jack Benny has been with us before, but it's always nice to have him back. His first show, with guest Lucille Ball, was definitely not the best that these two can do, though. Ordinarily, he's rated right up there at the top with his great friends, George Burns, Bob Hope and George Jessel. His regu- lars include singer Dennis Day, Eddie Anderson who plays Ro- chester, and of course, Don Wilson, who has been with him since he began in radio. 0--0--0 Danny Kaye's only intro- duction to us via television, has been an odd special here and there, so it's marvellous to have him with us every week. (Tuesdays, at 8:30). He is truly one of the most versatile and funniest guys in Hollywood. Last week's show, with guest Gwen Verdon was extremely en- tertaining. He shines in every- thing he does, but is really a standout in comedy skits, as in the one about 'Jerome' who meets a blind date for the first time. And the more Gwen Verdon appears on variety shows, the more talented she becomes. "Front Page Chal- lenge" has also returned, with a different producer, but the same format. 0--0--0 Specials this week include VISITORS AT McClure Motors opening last Friday were invited to fill out tickets for free door prizes.

Wednesday, September 30th's production of "The Fantasticks'; a one-hour TV version of the hit off-Broadway play, starring Ricardo Montalban, Bert Lahr, and Stanley Holloway. It's at 9:30. But the real highlight will be live coverage of the Queen's visit to Canada - on Monday, October 5th at 4:30 p.m. (her arrival at Summer - side R. C. A.F. Station, P. E. I.)

Dreyer, Iiespeler, made enquiry. Pro- vided sufficient support is re- ceived, he stated in a letter, "it is our purpose to declare a three-day open season." Council's agricultural com- mittee reported against the pro- posal, It was felt by the committee that the deer population is not great and it would be better if the county did not have an open season this year. '64 Deer Season Looks Brighter The 1963 deer season was a disappointing one to many hun- ters. Except for the western region and Manitoulin Island, which produced very goodhunt- ing, success rates in most areas dropped in 1963. Very unseasonable weather was largely responsible for the decline in success last year. Southern Ontario had rain al- most every day during the sea- son; in Central Ontario mid- summer temperatures coupled rival of the Royal Yacht at Charlottetown and the opening of the Father's of Confederation Building); and 10:00 p.m. (a repeat of that); Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. when she meets Charlottetown school children; and Saturday, the 10th at 10:15 a.m. for her arrival at Quebec City. with drought reduced the hun- ter's chances considerably. On the brighter side, pros- pects for a much better season in 1964 are excellent. Little snow fell across the eastern deer range last winter and the "livid was easy" for deer, Well nour- ished does should produce a healthy fawn crop, and the deer which eluded the hunter last year should be awaiting him this corning fall. In Wes - tern Ontario, deer should still he :abundant; all in all, hunters r can be optimistic. Let us hope that slightly more suitable weather for deer hunting pre- vails!
