The annual Wingham Film and—Nostalgia Festival probably will continue, but there will be some ,changes in format in future years, organizers report. - Nelson Frank, who together with John Schedler has been putting on the festival for the past four years, said things went quite, well this year, although they were a little disappointed at' a drop in attendance. He said he isn't sure whether the hot weather is to blame, or cgmpetition from all the I other events going on. He reported attendance of about 125,:which is the usual 'hard core' of film and nostalgia buffs, but at- tendance lvt, the general public was down from last Year. \- .They are looking at changing the timing to counteract the problem, he saici,Next year they likely will aim. •.for the cooler weather of, and will pick their own' weekend.

He said they also are looking at perhaps going to a one -day rather than a two- day festival. Apart from those changes they will stick pretty much to the same format, he added. Those, who come .seem to enjoy the festival and there --were no criticisms this year. Mr. Frankadmitted he is a little puzzled at the Jilted response to the festival, one of very few of its kind. For instance about 1,000 people showed up to see the regular offerings at the Lyceum cver the weekend, but only 125 paid the same price to see an entire day of vintage films and cartoons. Maybe the interest in nostalgia is being overrated, he commented. MRS.
