YOU CAN FIX -IT By Gene Von LOOSE DOOR HINGES Sometimes the hinges on doors become so worn that the screws won't hold any longer. There are several remedies for this. You can try using, longer . screws. Or you can plug the screw .holes with wooden dowels dipped hi glue (as in the illustration), and reset your q►e, in-thl ya n fill the ‘holea^ with sowire ' a�der and reset your screws in this. Or, in- stead of using solder, you can stuff the enlarged screw holes with bits of steel wool. More than 100 studies .have• been or are being conducted re- garding environmental and so- cial effects of pipeline, construc- tion in the Mackenzie Valley are and the northern Yukon. BARRY W. REID (HAVERED ACCOUNTANT 218 Josephine Street Wia9Mnuw 357-1522 Bill Smiley l'm hooked! On newspapers Reading newspapers is an addiction with some people. If the paper -boy is late, they start to fret and grow owly. If, for some reason, he doesn't show up at all, they are like a tiger with a sore tooth. This applies to readers of weeklies as well as dailies. Weekly newspaper readers are a mild and gentle lot, on the sur- face. But when their paper doesn't arrive on time, they turn into roaring lions or lionesses, as the case may be. Any weekly edi- tor will back me up on this. When 1 was a weekly editor, I regularly received ferocious let- ters from dear old ladies stating flatly that the paper wasn't worth three cents a week but since they had paid for a year, I'd darn well better see that it was delivered on time. I know ho' ' they feel. I'm one of those addicts mentioned in my opening paragraph. I take two daily papers .and half a dozen weeklies. If even one -Of them doesn't arrive on time, I'm not fit to live with. The on time I can get along without m apers is when I'm camping in tb wilds. Even then, the first morning or two, I'm greatly tempted to leap into the car and drive thirty miles to buy a paper. It takes me a couple of days to "dry out". It's not that there is anything particularly important in the paper. The front page of the dai- lies is junk and can be scanned in three minutes. Then I jump to the editorial page, which is only about 90 per cent junk. Then I read a couple of columns, leap to the entertain-. ment critics, scan the sports page and it's all over. I ignore the fi- nancial section and the women's pages, which I think are an insult to women. In half:an hour, I've skimmed several thousand 'words, and am no better off or happier than when I began. Stupid, isn't it? But you might as well try to tell an alcoholic that drinking is stu- pid. He'll ,agree, and as soon as your back is turned, have a couple of stiff ones to steady his nerves A readoholic, too, • will agree that he doesn't need that moaning pick-me-up,y And, the.. moment -your back is turned, he's peering out of the window for the paper- boy, twitching in every nerve. Or he's got his head in the garbage pail, absorbed in a story in the" newspaper the garbage is :wrap- ped in. I've tried to get the monkey off my back. First step was to shut my eyes while brushing my teeth. This meant. I would not be reading the directions on the toothpaste tube, in French and English:. during the operation. I lasted two days before I was sneaking peeks. Last summer, in England, .I thought I might kick the habit. After all, I wasn't interested in. Britain's disasters and divorces and football pools, which took up most of the space. I wouldn't read a single paper. First morning, having break- fast in bed, I felt as helpless and ' frustrated as a marl who has just lost both arms. Second morning, and thereafter, I sneaked down to the lobby before breakfast ar- rived, bought an armful of papers, went back to the room and lay there reading piggily, happy as a boozer'in a barrel 'of bingo. Reading weeklieS is a different matter. You not only read the front page more "slowly, but with greater interest. There are names of old friends, their chil- dren's marriages, deaths that shock. There's also a pretty good running account of what's hap- pening in the old home town. No sensationalism. Happy little sto- ries. People helping people. Inside the paper, the classifieds make good reading.

Though it was primarily a song with a message shared by only two people, Connors and his' bride, many people liked the song; more and more, young couples are turning to modern and contemporary music to, be played and sung at their wed- dings. The Toronto studio began, almost immediately, to receive requests for the song. It is now available on a record- ing, by Caulfield, and backed by another song written by Connors, "Christmas. Angel". Though there is no word on whether or not Connors himself has recorccd the wedding song, I wouldn't doubt it, because he did have a recording of "Christmas Angel". If you wopld like to order it at your favorite record shop, it is oil the Boot label.

The award is no great honor, but then, the people who receive it couldn't give a darn about publicity and would nog doubt like all the ptess to take a long walk off a short pier! Anyway, two years ago, after Jane Fonda spouted off her mouth ,about the war in' Viet Nam, picketed in Washington and got involved in the. civil rights movement, she was awarded the Sour Apple, though many( mem- bers of the Club could not agree. After all, the kid was only living •her beliefs. But .last year, the award was dropped because of dissension within the Club and ' the Sour Apple, I guess, went into applesauce. The past year, however, too Many people have been getting Hollywood into hot water, so the award was given in December. Winner was writer Norman Mailer who wrote "Marilyn", a life story about Marilyn Monroe. Mailer pulled out all stops and dug up some dirt that would 'have been better left covered since many of the people involved are no longer around to defend themselves. The Women of the Press Club cited his work as "cruelly unauthentic" and ac- cused Mailer of '`cashing in on the tragedy of a great star". Ruhner-up for the award was, wouldn't you know, Marlon Brando, probably for a number of things but most specifically, for his abominable behavior at the Academy Awards presentations last spring. No doubt, though he refused the Oscar, he would have been happy to accept the Sour Apple, just to show how thrilled he is to be irritating people! 0 0 0 A stormy January night is the perfect time to enjoy a good movie: and if you happen to be close to a theatre, ,you may be fortunate enough to see a top-flight one. The list to' be shown at the Lyceum in Wing - ham, looks interesting and some hear mentioning. Tatum O'Neal 'made the world sit up and notice her when she made her movie debut opposite her famous dad, Ryan, in "Paper Moon" showing the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th. From the 16th to the 19th, Academy Award winner Liza.Minnelli will delight you in the musical "Cab- aret"; and beginning January 30, will be "Walking Tall", hailed as one of the finest movies of the year. feathers. This demonstration of affection was accompanied by a very earnest request that he con- tinue his journey, making tracks with the heels toward Stirling or a still greater display of feeling would be manifested by ,all pres- ent. "Mr. Bundock could hardly claim to be taken by surprise as he had been warned of what might happen to him and in fact on Friday evening of last week some little attempt was made to carryout this same program, but the generous use of firearms pre- vented the affair being pulled off. "Mr. Bundock has been in Stir- ling for a . couple of years and claimed to be a faith healer." Now, there is the kind of style, 'elegant but incisive, that you'll never find in a daily paper.
