IDB adds
extra man
London branch of Industrial
Development Bank has added
W.J. Reynolds to its team of
two representatives in Huron
County, and in the northern
portion of Middlesex and Lamb -
ton Counties, following the
transfer of J, D. Brinklow, well
known to businessmen in Huron
County, to the Bank's Sudbury
office.
Mr. Reynolds, a professional
engineer, who has been with
the Bank for many years, will
make frequent visits to Goderich
Exeter, Wingham, Seaforth and
other communities to meet with
businessmen and farmers who are
interested in IDB financing.
Also assigned to the same area
is N. G.W. Peever.
Industrial Development Bank
was formed by Parliament in
1944. Its office at 197 York
Street, London, makes term
loans to manufacturing plants,
farms, retail outlets, profession-
al practices, etc., provided the
proposal is sound and provided
reasonable financing is not else-
where available.
People in Huron County who
are interested in IDB financing,
pamphlets on management prob-
lems, or speakers for service
clubs, etc. should contact Mr.
Peever or Mr. Reynolds at
Industrial Development Banc,
197 York Street, London. Alter-
nately, during the next week,
they may obtain the same inf-
ormation by visiting the Bank's
booth at the Western Fair.

Frorn my window
Do you have any teenagers in
your household? Do you have
any kids who are now able to
drive the car and go to drive-in
movies? Do you have any disc-
ussions with your kids about the
films they see there?
Our oldest son drives the fam-
ily car this summer. He also
has taken a keen interest in
drive-in theatres this year for
the first time. I have my ideas
as to why drive-ins hold such
extreme fascination for our son
but let's just say he's going to
the drive-in because it is a way
of life in our North American
society of 1973.
Every once in a while, I'll
ask him, " flow was the movie?"
A few times he's replied, " I
was disappointed, " Once he said,
I didn't like it at all. " Sometime
he replies, " It was akay I guess.'
Definately not the ravings of
a youth completely sold on the
programs available at the
neighborhood drive-ins. I'd say.
And I'm not surprised. Have you

. BY SHIRLEY J, !CELLE.6,
taken a good look at the fare
which is being served up these
days at a good many of the
local drive-ins?
Take a look at the next drive-
in calendar that comes into
your home. There's usually three
or four "skin flicks" as the kids
call them; some violent non -
talent things; a couple of no -
account science -fiction thrillers;
and one or two half -decent
pictures per month.
Yet the kids are there --by the
carload. Why? Likely because
it is a place to park without
anyone caring. You pay your
money and there's no questions
asked. If the entertainment is
good, you get an added bonus
which is almost unexpected
these days.
An expensive place to park,
you say? i guess it depends upon
the way you look at it. Society
accepts kids 'parking' in the
drive-in theatres, It doesn't
condone 'parking' in the streets
or 'loitering' in the parks or on
the street corners, Where else
does a fellow take his girl these
days, especially with the family
parlor more like Grand Central
Station than a quiet zone?
But what about those movies
which are being served up in
the nations outdoor theatres?
What about those sexy sadistic
films which are being sold as
art?
I'm willing to wager that
for the most part, the kids aren't
even remotely interested. You
see one, you see them all, I'll
bet. Whether or not such movies
are "turning on" the youth of
our country, I'd have no idea
although I'd suspect the percent-
age is extremely low. Although
I've not seen many of these
low -budget creations, I've been
told they're so badly done they
don't even have the capacity to
arouse.
And what about violence on
the screen? Well, to the warped
sick mind, violence may be
exhilerating... and that kind of
a mind is going to be fed by
something somewhere no matter
what. To the average teenager
in a theatre under the stars,
though, there's a slim chance
they'll leave the premises to
maim and to kill. They'll prob-
ably look at the movie from a
kind of far-off position with the
immediate action in the car
taking the greatest part of their
attention.
So, if like me you are conv-
inced that sex and violence do
not attract normal thinking
people, then why not offer some
thing else at the drive-in
theatres? Why not better movies
which draw not only the youth -
