On a late-night version of
"This Land of Ou>; last week-
end, the CBC -TV department
of agriculture -and resources vis-
ited our Western Ontario town
of Goderich, for a look at the
harbour and the salt mines Un-
fortunately, shdwn at the hour
it was, not too many would
have the opportunity to see the
half-hour production.
The production crew came
to Goderich early this. spring to
capture, on film, the arrivals
of the first ships breaking the
ice in the harbour, and to in-
troduce viewers to interesting
people who make Lake Huron
their "home away from home".
Producer John Lackie also show-
ed the salt mines, where salt
was discovered 106 years ago
and where production now ex -
ceeds a million tons a year.
Quite a• story about quite a town
' which we in 'home` territory'
take too much for granted.

The new Saturday night var-
iety show is for the yo ung
which won't do much to ensure
its success, I fear. Let's face it;
the young are not sittingwith
heads in the boob toob on Sat-
urday night's! It is called "One
More Time", originates in
Montreal, and stars Gilbert
Price and the new group, 3's A
Crowd, with guest performers.
It is presented BY the young,
too, with Price an enthusiastic
26 -year-old and his singing
group ranging •in age from 19
to 25.
Price is a native New Yorker
who has played "yin off-Broadway
shows and 'the summer] stock
theatre circuit; toiiired with
Harry Belafonte and' the Leon-
ard De Paur Chorus, and won
an award for his Broadway role

most all of the awards. I t s
nominations this year include
ones for outstanding variety
series, outstanding variety pro-
gram, and honours for the show's
performers and writers.
"Mission Impossible" receiv-

been a strong winner other years

ers Show also received some
nominations, as did other can-
celled shows.
The Emmy Awards will ori-
ginate live with the CBS net-
work in the U.S. , with live
coverage of winners making ac-
ceptance speeches in' New York

THE KINSMEN INITIATION held last Tuesday night left
three new members of the club wondering whether it was
all worth the trouble. Alex Strong, Left, Bill Johnston and
Dan Marsdin were painted, herded onto a truck, driven
around town and generally harassed by club members for
about an hour. The ceremony was part of the initiation
ritual.—A-T Photo.

Q.:: What's this garbage:I
hear about having two .separate
means of attachment on my
tractor when I am towing a
wagon, etc.
A.: The answer to that is
covered under Section 45HtA.
which states, "No motor, ve-
hicle, other than 'a motor ve-
hicle in which there is a person
licensed to operate a motor ve-
hicle on a highway, trailer or
other object or device shall be
drawn by a motor vehicle or
farm tractor on a highway un-
less there are two separate 4+
means of attachment so con -
structed and attached - that the
failure of one such means will
not permit the motor vehicle,
trailer, object or device being
drawn to become attached; but
this subsection does not apply
to a trailer so designed and used
that part of its own weight and
of its own load rests upon or is
carried by another vehicle or
to a trailer or other object or
device when drawn directly
across a highway by a farm trac-
tor.
"Every person who contra-
venes
any of the provisions of
this section is: liable, for the
firstoffence to a fine of not less
than $5 and not more than $50;
for the second offence to a fine
of not less than $10 and n o t
more than $100; and in addition

quent offence to a fine' of not
less than $20 and not more than
$200, and in addition his per-
mit may be suspended for a
period of not more than six
months. "
Q.: My hobby is fixing and
making radios, and now.I hope
to branch into television.. I
have a good 'radio in my car,
and I was wondering if I could
install a 9" TV in my dash?
' A.: ` The answer to that is
covered under Section 44 (1)
(a) (b) and (2) which states, "No
person shall drive on a highway
a motor vehicle that is equipped
with a television receiving set,
(a) any part of which is located
