SHORT SHOTS by Evelyn Kennedy If more people would devote an equal amount of time and effort they use in making a success of their business or profession. to their personal relationships. there would be more happy families and fewer marriage break-ups. geo9eao The debate between the leaden in the election campaign was held. The debate seemed more an attack on each other with two party leaders joining together to give Prime Minister Turner a difficult time. it is doubtful if it gave those who will cast their votes on Sept. 4 a clear picture of which would be the better man and party to cope with the difficult problems Canada and Canadians have to deal with. Why do so many young people flock to beaches? Some of course to swim or tie on the beach. covered with oily lotion. to get a fashionable suntan. Those young ladies in wispy bathing suits. young men in the swim trunks or shorts frolicking in the water or on the sand. giggling laughing, chasing to and fro, why are they there other than having fun? One can make an educated guess that it is the attraction of the opposite sex, the ladies with all their alluring young charms, the men displaying their attractive well developed bodies. Who can blame them? We were all 1 young once. On second thought, our tigures were never so well revealed when we were voung. motto* The Summer Olympic Games are being well covered by the t.v. networks and will bring us the most exciting events. Many Canadians will be watching events in which Canadians are competing. This is the largest (485 athletes) and strongest team Canada has ever sent to the Olympics. The association president has said it is a superbly prepared team with'a high level of morale. There are great expectations of a breakthrough in several events that should give our athletes medals. 0000eoa The most ridiculous note that has been struck in this election campaign is one that has been sounded repeatedly by two of the candidates, has been inflated out of all reason by the media, even voiced by some women's groups. it is the habitual derriere -patting of ladies by the Prime Minister, What has that got to do with his ability to fulfil whatever duties he maybe called upon to do? it is quite noticeably an unconscious• if unfortunate habit objectionable to other ladies; that he probably began as. a friendly pat on his wife and daughter. it is the silliest Personal jab to be used in an election campaign.
