What made:.; the 'great days' great?. , It Might have .been 'the competition; you .fought hard to be !first' if you weite ' a `nev s- paperman' and you' fought , hard- est if you were on the staff of The ° Toronto Star. Mostly, though, it was the .dedication` and drive of these men that made the days, and The Star, great. " An hour-long special "Great Days on ling Street", attempted to show us some of the frazzle dazzle' journalism that went into the pages. of The Star and some of the men that madeit great. These were not *just reporters; these were men looking. for adventure and willing to risk their necks for their job, And ,where, do you see that: ki d4J^iif icatierf*y, i,'a ,�: MtiR Y ! �' YIIt iO 1, '.R'. .� Letis ace t,. `eseguysweren't, .. in it for the money; not, in those days.But they, were giants, men like Ernest Hemingway, Gregory • Clark, Fred Griffin, yes, and even Gordon Sinclair, the same Gordon Sinclair who brags about , the money he has, the money he earned, don't forget, from being a great reporter, Sinclair's only fault was that he spent too , nuch time being bitter about the ,in- ' justices and 'hardship he ex- perienced instead of trying to im- prove •conditions. • Yes, as Pierre Berton said in narration, "Those were tli e days!" Those were the days when the newspaper . was all things to all people, no TV to bring adven- tures into your living room; they had to be put on paper; . nothing but the newspaper to take youto the other side of the world. And The. Toronto Star did it, though many times not easily. Copy was. delivered in every conceivable way, by dog §led, airplane, spe- cial train and model T, but it made the deadlines: Newspapers like that, and men like those reporters,are part of an era, and era that has been pushed into the backgroundAjr television. The CBC, in trying to By Vonni L-ee bring back these days, only shows us what we're missing, It was sad to hear of John Ban- ner's death in Europe last week- end. He eek-end..He was the fabulous Sgt. Schultz of "Hogan's Heroes", the bumbling German officer of the P.O.W. camp. He was 63 years of age. - All was not bad news in the en- tertainment world, though. Jane Fonda; the little gal with the big mouth, finally divorced French producer Roger Vadim and mar= Add Tom Hayden, a man she met when both were actively involved in the anti -war movement. This was a bit :of a surprise since many expected her to wed Don Suther- land, , another ..peace lover... and forl»er 012,45 4 `§I if ' W. 1 daugi ter !of -tORu „Isonmy.:,,boft changeable. as the lovely Miss Fonda is, we could be reporting, that story next week! She is the daughter of actor Henry, part of a tremendously talented fam- ily; though her big mouth almost got her into a heap of trouble, Hollywood closed its ears and awarded her the Oscar last year, for her performance in "Klute 0 0 0' This weekend, Sunday, the 18th, at 9, Wayne and Shuster will be back with their third of four specials this season. They delve into the world of organized crime in their main sketch; also take a look at the toy industry, Chinese restaurants and inflatable furni- ture. There is always soqmething to make most of us.laugh\in one of their hours. In a special next Tuesday eve- ning at 10, you can. see why you're working yourself to death in the hopes of spending your retire- ment years in Hawaii. Hopes' may be all you have! "That Won- derful Day When I Reach 65" takes a look at the Canada Pen- sion Plan and private pension plans that may or may not be ef- fective. Sounds interesting... and certainly affects most of us. Stompin' Tom Connors on Torn Hunter Show, That miracle star of 'Canadian show business, , Stompin' Tom Connors, is special guest on CBC tele sion's Tommy Hunter Show, Fri y, Feb. 16 at 9 p.m. y is he called miraculous? first of all, it's a miracle , that Torn Connors ever survived. Born 'a fatherless son 36 years ago, he never knew his mother until he saw her many years later on a St. John, N.B., street corner. He drifted around, jobless most' of the time, carrying his guitar, wanting , to become a country singer. He made it, with a nasal twang and a knack for stomping his foot in rhythm with his tunes. He's worn out more than ' one stage floor in his time. Actually, his career began in earnest at the Maple Leaf Hotel in Timmins, Ont., where he sang for the price of a beer, stayed 14 months ana wound up earning $105 a week. Such is the incred- ible 6 -foot 2 -inch Stompin' Tom Connors, a man who has become a sought-after star and a centen- nial ambassador for his adopted province, Prince Edward Island. 200 foot limit for ice fishing Ice fishermen this year have had some -of their mechanized mobility restricted by new On- tario fishing regulations. Although still allowed two lines, one more than summer - season anglers, the. ice angler must this season be within 200 feet of any line he is tending. He must also have a clear and unob- structed view of both lines. Ther;urlationswere intro. duuod to curtail • such activities as tithing one line in I lake And zooming away by snowmobile to tend . another line a mile or so away. The unobstructed view legisla- tion is to discourage anglers who cut ice -fishing holes in the lake near their cottage, set out tip -ups and then retire inside to warmth and comfort. With their snowmo- bile at the ready, thdy glance out the door every quarter-hour or so to see if the flag is showing. Tieing only a "minute away" by snowmobile is no longer 'tending your line wording • to the new laws. r e foHowkng r grams, listed OS 1::O0 Late Date 13 1:40 Coneern 13 "SATMyRRAY,FEB. 17 1:53 Concern 113 /'O0 'Jude Bobby Show 13 8:00 Canadian Cartoons 13 8:30 Atalgrichon et Gra 10 Arts 1.00 13 0;00 ' .Littlest Hobo 10 , Tree House 13 0:30 Hilarious House of Frankenstein Canadian 10;001 Maj 10:30 T'ILURE AY,.
