ZURICH CITIZENS Mews THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1965 Television Views by William Whiting Every year about this time television critics take a swipe at re -runs during the summer month s, Condemnation i s heaped on the industry, t he stars, the producers and so on. We come to their defence. Reruns offer those who missed certain shows during the reg- ular season, an opportunity to see top shows. Few individuals can remain home seven nights per week without interruption; even when this is achieved, very often two shows you wish to see are scheduled at the same time on different chan- nels. During the re -run period only the very top shows are seen during the summer, usually 12 to 15 out of a season of 35 to 40 programs, Let's .look at a couple of ex- amples. Last week there was an opportunity to see an excel- lent "Mr. Novak" drama which was presented last January, "From the Brow of Zeus" was a heart-warming and humorous story about a 10 -year-old prod- igy entering high school with students four to six years his senior. It was a well written and well produced program and we enjoyed it for the second time. It was that good. Jack Pear is the second ex- ample. True, he said goodbye for ever but there are summer re -runs. This week they're showing the videotaped show of Zsa Zsa. Gabor, Liberace and many other fine guests. Re- member that one? If you missed it last fall, here's your chance. Repeats are essential inmost industries. What a .holler there would be if transportation serv- ices ran one bus, or one train, or one plane to larger centres instead of the usual three or four or six or seven per day. Motion picture houses are in the repeat business. If you fail to see a picture in your town or city, it'll be showing 15 or 20 miles away a few days later and you can go. Children love repeat rides at the midways when the circus or carnival comes to town. We like it when the TV stars take a holiday. Repeats are great. 1 LAGE of ZURICH The Reeve, Members of Council and Ratepayers, The Corporation of the Village of Zurich, Zurich, Ontario Gentlemen: a RI I have audited the accounts and records of the Village of Zurildh for the year ended December 31, 1964, and have prepared therefrom the statments listed in the index accompanying this report.
