week -end infantry strike
company training which was
conducted on the farm of• the
unit's former regimental setg-
eant major was a most valuable
exercise, All levels of the unit
were most enlightened that
gunners could perform as in-
fantry. Not perfect by any
means, bin for the first time
our under winter conditions it
was moat suecessful. The exer-
cise was only to have been 50
strong, all ranks. We ended
up with 57, which is most grat-
ifying. There'were a few hum-
orous anecdotes, such as some-
one giving the regimental chap»
lain die wrong map reference
for church service. lie ended
up walking a complete conces-
sion at 0600 hours on Sunday,.
in snow up to (at times) his pos-
terior, carrying his,accouter-
ments to give communion to
those young gunners.
There were other people who
felt that as they were on picket
the fire needed more wood and
commenced choping wood at
0100 hours. This shook the
ground like an earthquake.
Certain officers who were arous-
ed out of a deep sleep found
that the call of nature was most
urgent. They got up, into cold
clothes, boots, eta., and dash-,
ed off in a direction which was
not really the correct one. How-
ever, they groped their way '
back and settled in, unaware
they had dropped their snow
laden boots on a fellow officer's
clothing. Their brother officer
was mast annoyed in the mom-
ing.
All in its proper perspective,
it was a valuable week -end to ,
most of the young gunners.
a hey found out that to look af-
ter oneself in the open, under
winter conditions, is quite a
bit more than meets the eye.
„, Other /news. which ,was not
quite so happy for a certain
Regular Force NCO attached to
the unit was news of an impend-
ing posting to Germany in July.
However, this is not definite
yet.
Word has been received from
our rumor net (and it is quite
reliable) that WO "Bunker" Bill
Perry has been promoted to
master warrant officer with the
1st Regiment RCHA in German)t
Congratulations Bill. Hope he
recalls the conversation we had
in die QM Stores one afternoon.
Bill at that time was not too
happy. This should help the
tnedicine go down.

Considered by some to be
the best dramatic series that
CBC Television has. ever pro-
duced, "Wojeck" is back with
us again, on a rerun basis, with
ten episodes of the best of the
original series being presented
this season. It moved in last
week to replace "Quentin Dur -
gens", a series also lauded by
some Canadian critics.
"Wojeck" first made its ent-
rance in 1966 and many, in-
cluding its star John Vernon,
have wondered why • the CBC
ever let such a good thing slip
through its fingers. .Probably
just another of the goofs that
the CBC it so famous for! 'Wo-
jeck' episodes have been sold .
to Great Britain, Holland, Fin-
land, Ireland, Yugoslavia, Bel-
gium, Italy and Sweden, and
its writers, producers and per-
formers have won several awards,
both here in Canada, and in
other countries.
c' • But despite its success, "Wo -
Rh -au k" •
•Ls no more, and again,
the fesult has been that another
Of but fine actors has been
forced to leave his native land
and head to Hollywood 'where
his talent is recogdized and
utilized. Vernon has just com-
pleted a starring role in the
motion picture "Justine" which
was made in Tunis, and is back
at work at Los Angeles where
he now resides. He was the
main reason 'Wojeck' was so
successful, but let CBC try to
bring Wojeck back to life now,
they will no doubt have to look
for a new face. Vernon would
be silly to come back, only to

!Magnificent' must be the
word for the dramatic perfec-
tion of the voice of Joan Suther-
land who provided us with a
private concert last Wednesday
evening on the CBC. The show
was taped at the MacMillan
Theatre at the University of To-
ronto last April. The theatre
holds 800 people but 1000 carne
to share in the magical event,
some having to sit on the stage
behind the performer.
Miss Sutherland was born in
Australia and it was a lucky
break for North America when
she decided to comet� the New
York Met. She is in a class by
herself; even when she goofs,
she does it like a grand lady!
Her piano accompanist for this
show was her husband, Richard
Bonynge, himself. a talented

Jack Jones' special "With a •
Little Help from my Friends"
(Show of the Week,) should
have added "And a Lot of Help
from Debbie Reynolds. " She
is a fine performer, looking
hardly a day'older than the day
she first started in movies when
she was a teenager. Her sing-
ing is getting better as she gets
older, and she has always been
a great dancer and fine actress.
She also is one of Hollywood's
brightest comediennes, although
in places, her car -washing act
was a bit overdone.
Next year she islollowing
the Doris Day -route and break-
ing into television with a new
series, and rumour has it that
she is also° earning an enormous
bundle for it, also like Doris.
I predict if she has good writers,
her series could -be a hit of next
year's season.,
Jones' other guests were com-
edian Godfrey Cambridge and
singers Johnny Cash and hiiwife
June Carter. But mind you,
Jack didn't need a lot of help;
' he is a relaxed host, a finesing-
er, and not exactly the ugliest ,
guy in the world. He has been
surrounded by famous people
all his life; his father was sing-
er Alan Jones and he LS married
to the gorgeous actress Jill St.
John. 'When this Jack and Jill
go up the hill, they bring back
a boodle of money!
