It Is rather unfortunate that
CPC has placed one of the
greatest series they have ever
shown, on the summer sched
ole only and in an 8 p.rn, slot,
a time when few people are
closed indoors looking at the
TV set, "The Great War",
which refers to the 1914-1918
First World War, is a I3I3C-TV
series, comprising 26 episodes.
It is seen now on Tuesday and
Friday evenings and beginning
in August, will also he seen
on Saturdays at 7 p.m. It is a
revelation in the making of a
TV series, not only because of
the fact that it contains much
material that has never before
been seen publicly, but also
because of the line quality of
the films shown. Films of that
period, if shown as they are
actually shot, are rapid and
jerky. But with much time and
labor spent stretching and fil-
tering this film, it has been
marvellously brought up to mo-
dern television standards. What
a magnificent job they have
done!
No series has been research-
ed as thoroughly as has this
one. More than 30 writers, re-

searchers, editors, and military
experts worked at London's
I3I3C studios, while nine more
researchers travelled around
the world seeking wartime vet-
erans, films and photographs.
The CI3C and the Australian
Broadcasting Commission also
loaned personnel to assist with
production.

Wouldn't you know it? Gor-
don Sinclair would have to
choose the summer to be mild,
meek, docile, lovable, and
everything else that he is not
during the fall -spring television
season when we have to toler-
ate him. Ile admitted to El-
wood Glover on the latter's in-
terview luncheon show last
Tuesday, that he is worried
about the image he has created,
and hurt and bothered when
someone verbally attacks him
in public. Well, he certainly
has no one to blame but him-
self! It was a nice change,
though, to see him chatting
with his friend, Elwood, rather
than arguing, hanging the table
with his fist, and fighting for
his own way.

Pee Wees Capture
Two from Luckn w
On Thursday the Wingham
Pee Wees beat Lucknow 15 to
12 with more than half of the
team being last minute fill-ins.
Only four Pee Wees on the reg-
ular team were on hand by the
time we were ready to go, so
many Squirts were taken from
their practice to answer the
call of duty and aid the short-
handed Pee Wee team.
The coaches would like to
make one point clear to those
who play ball for our minor
teams and that is: If you cannot
attend a ball game because of
sickness, vacations, or you have
to go to camp, contact your
coach and give him time to
Michelle Finney
Leaves Canada
For Hollywood
Teenage TV star Michele
Finney bids farewell to Canada
this summer. Michele and her
parents leave in mid-August
for California where she will
try her luck in Hollywood.
Known to thousands of Can-
adian children as the hostess of
Razzle Dazzle until early this
year, and as co -host of Time
of Your Life each Sunday for
the past season, Michele, at
15, has been in showbusiness
nearly eight years.
She began her career as a
five-year-old model, later mo-
ved into television and after a
formidable list of TV and radio
dramas and interview shows,
she was chosen, at eleven, 'as
Razzle Dazzle hostess. A job
that would have exhausted a
veteran, Razzle Dazzle appear-
ed live five days a week and
Michele was in there pitching
every day, as well as keeping
up school work and doing the
occasional drama. Personal
appearances took up still more
time and her fan mail, total-
ling some 300 letters a week,
required attention and often
personal replies.
During the past season on
Time of Your Life, Michele
was seen singing, dancing, act-
ing and hammingit up, with a
versatility that will stand her
in good stead in Hollywood.
Now ready to enter Grade ll
Michele will return to school
in Hollywood. She expects to
combine school and career for
several years to come.
She leaves behind her a
large group of friends plus
thousands of pen pal fans who
are already bombarding her
with requests for her Hollywood
address so that correspondence
can continue. The family will
take an apartment and one of
Michele's first tasks will be to
write to her Canadian pen pals
and let them know what Amer-
ica's showbusiness capital is
really like.
find a capable substitute as
they cannot be expected to run
around at game time looking
for replacements.
We are again disappointed
in the amount of transportation
that is showing up at the ball
park. At six o'clock when we
were about to leave Mrs. Marks
pulled up and saved us from
having to take 15 in one car
and we are very thankful to
Mrs. Marks, one of our few sup-
porters and near regulars at the
ball games.
Lennie Johnston was the top
hitter for Wingharn as he slam-
med out a triple, a double,
two singles and drove in three
runs. The Squirts (five of them)
who filled in did an excellent
job as they had eight of the
fourteen Wingham hits. Donnie
Murray, Bobby La Rose and Nel-
son
elson Gower had two hits apiece
for the winners.
The local boys took a three
to nothing after the first and
held onto their three run lead
to edge the hosts.
Tom Irwin and Lennie John-
ston held Lucknow to only four
hits but because of numerous
fielding errors they were unable
to hold the score down.
Elmer Ackert was Lucknow's
top hitter with a triple.

On Saturday the local boys
were the hosts, and squeezed
by Lucknow to win 10 to 9.
Wingham took control of the
game from the start but in the
fourth inning Lucknow came to
life and struck for two runs.
They added three runs in each
of the fifth and sixth innings
and finished up with one more
in the seventh. Wingham came
through with three runs in their
half of the sixth to stay within
reach of a flying Lucknow team
and the three runs in the bot-
tom of the seventh with no-
body out were all they needed
to win the game.
Barry Gardner led Wingham
with three singles. Lennie
Johnston and Joe Kerr each con-
tributed a double and single to
the Pee Wee win.
Kerr allowed eight hits,
walked three and struck six in
pitching the full seven innings.
It is his first win of the year
against one loss. Bill Kilpatrick
and Jim MacDonald hit home
runs for Lucknow.

Bill Hotchkiss threw a no-
hitter as Wingharn Goodyears
clobbered Clinton town 14 to 0
last Thursday. His no-hitter
during which he struck out 20
opposing batters was only an
error and a walk shy of a per-
fect game. The first batter of
the game reached first on an
error and he walked one in the
second. After yielding the base -
on -balls he retired the next 22
batters in order.
Ken Saxton led the offense
with a two run homer in the
fifth and followed up with a
double in the seventh. Hotch-
kiss won his own game with a
three -run blast in the first.Jim
Bain collected two doubles and
Bruce Lott and Cookie Foxton
collected three hits each for
the winners.
