Action Needed Immediately To Save Sugar Beet Industry In Ontario "Whatever is done, must be done in a hurry." That was the comment of Lloyd Lovell, Exeter, who re- turned from Ottawa recently after being involved in discus- sions regarding the closing of the Chatham plant of the Can- ada and Dominion Sugar Re- finery. Mr. Lovell is vice-president of the Ontario Sugar Beet Mar- keting Board and sat in on dis- cussions with other board mem- bers along with federal agri- culture minister J. J. Greene, Ontario agriculture minister W. A. Stewart, Sid Williams of the Stabilization Board and C & D Sugar Co. representatives. At the meeting the company announced they would not change their decision to close the Chatham plant. Several alternative sugges- tions were presented to the meeting and it was recommend- ed that the Ontario govern- ment put the refinery under trusteeship and •operate it, This proposal is presently be- fore the Ontario government, but no decislon has been reach- er as yet. Mr. Lovell pointed out time is running out on negotiations as farmers will have to know within two weeks—or three at the most—whether they will be able to grow sugar beets this year.

The attractive profile of Mrs. Emma Peel has appeared for the last time in The Avengers. Diaana Rigg is leaving the high- ly -successful series, and she's being replaced by an equally - stunning girl . . 20 -year-old Linda Thorson. Miss Thorson, a brunette with an occasional liking for a blonde wig, will play the role of Tara King, Steed's youthful assistant. Producer Brian Clemens tried not to over -expose Miss Thor- son in her initial appearance, although there is no doubting that this talented young acrtess has plenty to show. Miss Thorson has a tough as- signment ahead of her in filling the vacuum created by Ernma's departure. Mrs. Peel was no mediocre Ieading lady --in every corner of the globe, she's•iden- tified as that cool classy bird, who was a paradox of natures— at times, as tough as nails; on occasion, as gentle as a lamb. Fortunately, the character of Tara King is in complete con- trast to that of Mrs. Peel. Linda Thorson is brand new and her surroundings will be new.
