Culture Minister Susan Fish, in • making the an- nouncement, said that Ontario's ,financial support of the performing arts has been the 'lowest of any province. More than three million dollars will be added to funds already going to the five largest arts organizations in the province, bringing the total for these groups to more than five million. Included in this select group are Western Ontario's own Stratford Festival, the Shaw Festival at Niagara, the Canadian Opera Company, the 'National .Ballet of Canada and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. The three -million -dollar grant will be • a permanent fund channeled through the Ontario Arts Council which will determine how the money will be allocated. Explaining the ministry's actions, Ms. Fish stated that the increased funding represents- not only an ap- preciation of the excellence of these groups but also recognizes their value in providing employment, aiding the tourist industry and helping the economy of the province. Ontario presently finances anis organizations -to the tune of 86 million dollars a yen'', including art galleries, cultural agencies, ballet and theatre schools and funds from Wintario. 0-0-0 This coming weekend all eyes will be focused on Ottawa where the Liberal Leadership Convention will be held., CBC Television received many accolades on its presentation of the proceedings of last year's Progressive Conservative Leadership Convention, much of it aimed at the excellence of anchorman Peter Mansbridge. They aim to match those fine reviews and perhaps exceed them with this year's coverage. The special telecasts begin with a pre -convention news special on Wednesday evening at 7:30, then gets down to business with a two- hour special testimonial for Prime Minister Trudeau who has been the party's leader since 1968 and Prime Minister for most of that time. Friday, June 15, will feature the candidates' speeches, their last effort to win last-minute un- committed delegates. That will be a three-hour special beginning at 7 p.m. All Saturday afternoon will be devoted to the Voting for the new leader, beginning at 2 and proceeding until the new prime minister is chosen. On Sunday morning, CBC has left some time open at 11 for a possible press conference by the new prime minister and Sunday evening at 7:30 CBC will present a convention wrap-up news special.

Bill Smiley Junk mail ismimmiiwirovi• Becau$e I write a syndi- cated column, I've been put on the hit list of some public relations outfit in New York. As a result, I receive a stream of garbage mail con- taining fascinating material about some product or other that is being pushed by the PR firm. Usually, I spot it right away and toss it in the round filing cabinet without even opening it. Today came one of these missives an , distracted by somethin:, se, I had opened the thing and ead para- graph or o . fore I -al- ized it was j • - I the • ece of puffery. It was headed NEWS FROM: The Hamburg Group. For Release: Imme- diately. All press releases say the latter. Anyway, I thought it would be a pitch for McDonald's or a string quartet. It wasn't. It was a series of little articles about Hamburg and Germany, touting that city's great vari- ety of attractions. Such junk has about as much place in this column as an account of the origins of beekeeping in Basutoland. 'And I'm supposed to print it. free. What dummies these PR people are. However, I'd already read enough to hook me on the first article, entitled Brew- ery'.s Waste Energy To Heat Hospital. It didn't make sense at first. Why should breweries, waste energy to heat a hospital, unless they're trying to make amends of all the people who wind up in hospital with cir- rhosis of the liver from drinking their poison? I took another look at the heading, 1-s1;sbtted the apos- trophe•;.rh,id now it made sense. A brewery will deliver heat and hot water to a hos- pital. As part of its brewing process, the brewery used to end up with a lot of excess heat that must be cooled be- foreit is. released into the air. Now, instead` of being wasted, that heat 'will be channeled into the hospital where it will, be put to good use. Cost of the deal, equipment and stuff; is about 400,000 marks, to be assumed by the city. The debt will be liquid- ated through the savings on energy that would otherwise have to be purchased. Are you listening,, Labatts, Molsons • et al? Instead of pouring money into sports and all these phoney ads. about as subtle as a kick in the ribs. indicating that beer .drinking will make your life macho, full of fun and beau- tiful girls in skimpy swim suits, why don't you channel your heat into hospitals? Think of the free publicity! Ain't 'them- Germans something, though? If they didn't start a war every so often and get clobbered, they'd own half the world, with their resourcefulness and hard work. Last time 1 saw Hamburg was in 1944, and it was liter- ally hamburg. The RAF had firebombed it by night and the USAAF had pounded it by day until ii was a heap of rubble. 1 was a prisoner of war and saw it from a train window on my way to an in- terrogation centre in Frank- furt. Forty -odd years later, it has risen from the ruins like a phoenix, and is a booming city, visited by over a million travellers in 1981. .But Hamburg-Schmam- burg. I'm not going to urge my readers to go there. it was the article on heating that caught my eye. Aside from the breweries in Canada, this country has another industry that could produce enough heat so that. if it were properly channel- ed, we could thumb our col- lective noses at the Arabs. I'm talking about politics. Town and city councils produce enough hot air to heat at least one hospital within their limits. Provincial legislatives produce enough hot air to re- place half the oil used in their provinces. And from that vast deposit natural gas known as °t- issues daily enough hot air `i heat Montreal's Olyixi• pic Stadium. even though it has no roof And that's only touching the bases, without going to the outfield or the infield. Think of all the hot air pro- duced by teachers and preachers, union leaders, abortionists and anti -abor- tionists, public relations people, medical associa- tions, school boards. And there's lots more where that comes from. The. squeals of those caught with a mortgage to be renewed, the moans of farmers who are losing their shirts, the bellows of angry small busi- nessmen: all these are wast- ing energy blowing hot air into our rather frigid cli- mate, there to be dispersed into nothing. Add to this all the hot air that is poured into our tele- phone lines, that. is batted back and forth over business luncheons and at parties and over the breakfast table. It's perfectly simple. All we need is a means of bottl- ing the stuff somehow, and distributing it to the right places. If our scientists can send a missile to Mars, sure- ly they can find a method of storing and channeling, the incredible quantities of hot air that rise in clouds over our country. Peter Lougheed might have to cap some of his oil wells, but if somebody came up with the solution, we could not only tell the Arabs what to do with their oil. We could probably buy Saudi Arabia. Maybe I'll drop a line to the Mayor of Hamburg, see what he suggests. 024 for pickpocket The average purse snatcher get $98 per grab, while the average pick- pocket gets $124.
