There’s plenty to dispute that view. First, there are many shows today that run at least an hour: CIlC’s Wednes­ day Night, the Ford Theatre, or almost any disc-jockey effort you care to name. Second, even the short five-minute capsules offer some of the most informa­ tive and entertaining listening- on the air. A few of the CKNX shows that help strengthen my view on this are: Dr. Bell’s Farm Bulletin (7:55 a.m.); Wo­ men in the News (9:45 a.m.); The Peggy Brooks Show (11:30 a.m.); Ogilvie Reminder Time (3:40 p.m.); and, one Sunday, Speaking of Sports (3:40 p.m.). Frequently any one of these quickies will get more across in five minutes than another pro­ gram accomplishes in multiples of that length. * * radio’s or Of r y of Lucan Personals Robert and Hugh Thompson, small children of Mi’, and Mrs, Clinton Thompson of Iroquois are spending a few week’s with their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Eli Thompson.—^incidentally thei little lads are also grandsons of Katie Aikens, of radio fame.

Chase, vocalist, and Russ Wat­ ers, pianist, provide songs of the era while Gord Smith discusses antique autos on Motor Mem­ ories. Smith, incidentally, has been driven out of house and home by his attraction to auto­ mobile antiques. He owns no less than 15 ancient horseless buggies. To accommodate all this machinery he bought a farm near Huntsville. It’s not unusual to see him clattering between his farm-changed-auto-museum and his radio station in Orillia. The program, is recorded on tape and shuttled among five radio stations that participate in the exchange. The show is heard Sundays at 2 o'clock on CKNX.
