Many of them are geared to the seasons: spring •cleaning; summer 'flu; the burning of the leaves. get- ting stoned out of your skull on New Year's Eve, One of the most sacred of these, for some of us, is open- ing day of the trout season. Slap of a beaver tail; chuckle of running water; splatter of Wild duck taking off from swamp; feel of the sun on face; mist of green spreading through bare bones of branches; honest stench of worm -guts on hands;; flavor at noon of big, bologna sandwiches with hot mustard; these are the things which quicken the senses, cleanse the body of its winter stupor, re- mind one that God is still in His heaven. And these are some of the reasons I have never missed the trite, whether the mortgage is due, or my wife is having a baby, or I have a date with Sophia Loren. And I hope to do so until the day when they ,have to carry me to a quiet spot on the stream and leave me there in my wheelchair, to watch the black water swirl around the white rock. the yellow sun pick up the golden gravel of the stream bottom. Each year the ritual is the same. And each year it is dif- ferent. There is the year when you fall off a log in the first three minutes, and squish and squelch yourself through the rest of the day, a sodden mess, wet fags, wet matches, soaked sandwiches. And there is the year when you hit the stream at the crack of dawn, fish with all your skill until sunset, and come home with two speckled trout eight inches long. And there is the year when you go out at 7:30 a.m., just to toss a line for old ZURICH.

But this year topped them all. It was complicated, Our high school music director, with incredible lack of foresight, had scheduled an exchange con- cert with a city school, for that very day. Fine. But it turned out we had to have sone of the visiting youngsters for dinner. As my wife is away every Sat- urday, for music lessons with the kids, this meant I was cook. Normally, I'd have welcomed a chance to display my culinary skill, In fact, I had the menu planned. Beef stew simmered in beer, followed by a sour cream souffle, roast chestnuts and peppermint lifesavers as dessert. Then I realized it was opening day. I was aghast. Wanted to be a good host but danged if I was going to miss the rites of spring. Then it struck me.

The one-hour film was made in Dublin, London and Ayot St. Lawrence, where he died at the age of 94. Interspersed are newsreel sequences and still photographs adding authenticity to this portrait of a great writer whose ultimate concern was for the human race.

CLINTON — WALKERTON — SEAFORTH en., a real north country dinner —speckled trout. lovingly fried in butter? They'd never for- get it, With a light heart, I hit for the trout stream on opening day. Everything was perfect. It was fine day, and I knew there were at least 47 big speckles in there, just waiting to hit that butter. Got home at 4:30 p.m. with two six-inch chub and a 14 -inch sucker. Went to the fish mar- ket. They had nothing but some fairly large whitefish, which somehow didn't look like speckled trout. Called all my friends. They had either been skunked like me, or stated flat- ly, "The hell with you, Smiley; we're putting on• a big speckled trout dinner for those visiting musicians; feeding four of them." Bought fwo pounds of hamburg. You know, there are times when my love for my wife is overwhelming. When I arrived at the house at 5:30, she was grilling steaks in the oven. Television Views by William Whiting Television scores another first—the capturing of a want- ed criminal by means of satel lite TV. It happened in Florida when a repairman saw the face of George Lemay on a program. telecast by the Early Bird com- munications satellite. This criminal was wanted in connec- tion with a Montreal bank rob- bery in 1961 which neted him over $500,000. When told that he was the first man captured through the new world-wide communications facilities of the Early Bird, he was incredulous. * * * We had the opportunity of watching a "Veritron" in action at an advertising convention in Toronto last week.

M. Morris was an early pioneer of this new weed -free method of growing corn. "1 treated a neighbour's cornfield that hadn't been cropped for years. It was thick with weeds of every description. 1 said to myselff'this will be a. real test for .Atrazine'—and it surely was. We sprayed when the weeds were about an inch high... the weeds were corning -up by the millions. After ' spraying, the weeds just disappeared. eared. At harvest time the corn was absolutely dean," M.
