Show -biz
People are still talking about
the NBC color coverage of the
NHL hockey playoffs. Three or
four questions have been com-
monplace and, if I may, I'll try
to answer them for you,
Why did the NBC announcer
handle the game in such a ju-
venile way?
Win Eliott, the play-by-play
man, was instructed by this NBC
producers to make his coverage
of the play as clear as possible.
(Remember that millions of
people watching had never seen
a hockey game before.) As a
matter of fact, I'm told that
Win's superiors wanted him to
explain more of the game than
he actually did, I, for one, got
a big kick out of his constant
reference to "a lateral pass".
Why was the NBC coverage
a few minutes behind the play
on Canadian stations?
Here in Canada, during the
game itself, most commercials
run about 10 seconds, So, the
Canadian producers can stay
with the game during a break
in play and still get the com-
mercial on the air. However,

NBC was faced with full one -

the game. So, each period was
started "live" and carried "live"
until the first commercial break
came along. Then, they broad-
cast the commercial and started
to tape the game as it started
up again. After the minute
commercial they rolled the de-

Legislation approving the Ontario Medical Services Insurance Plan-OMSIP for
short -was passed in the Ontario Legislature on Feb. 18th of this year. Coverage
commenced April lst for social assistance recipients. Coverage will begin July 1st
for those who have already enrolled, or who enroll now before May 16th.
OMSIP PROVIDES COVERAGE
REGARDLESS OF AGE, INCOME
Everyone who has lived.
in Ontario for the past 3
months is eligible to join,
except those who are enti-
tled to physicians' services
under another Act.
Members are free to
choose their own doctor. If
a member travels outside
the Province, and requires
care, OMSIP will still pay
the doctors' bills up . to
OMSIP established rates.
People who find they can-
not continue to pay for all
or part of their OMSIP con-
tract because of unemploy-
ment, illness or disability,
may apply for temporary
assistance in paying their
fees.
OR HEALTH
OMSIP has been estab-
lished to provide adequate
insurance coverage for the
payment of doctors' bills,
and to make this coverage
available to all Ontario resi-
dents regardless of their age,
income or state of health.
Enrollment in OMSIP is
voluntary.
The Plan is intended for
individuals and their fam-
ilies and does not provide
group coverage. (Group cov-
erage is where a number of
individuals collectively pur-
chase insurance through
their place of employment,
union, etc.)
Many qualify for full or
partial assistance
Since the aim of OMSIP Ieg- •
islation is to provide adequate
medical insurance for Ontario •
residents, full or partial pre-
mium assistance is available•
for those who require it.
Automatic fully -paid -
coverage
Many residents and their
dependants have automatic-
ally received fully paid cover-
age under OMSIP. These are
people who are already re-
ceiving benefits under the fol-
lowing Acts:
• The Blind. Persons'
Allowances Act
The Disabled Persons'
Allowances Act
The General Welfare
Assistance Act
• The Mothers' Allowances
Act
The Old Age Assistance Act
,•
• The Rehabilitation
Serviees Act
Automatic fully -paid cover-
age is also provided for old
age security pensioners and
their dependants declared eli-
gible for coverage by the
Ontario Department of Public
Welfare.

Huron County
Crop Report
Despite the cold weather, a
substantial acreage of corn and
spring grains have been sown
in Huron County. Growth of
all crops has been very slow.
Frost may have injured forages,
particularly legume seedlings.
Warmer weather is badly
needed to ensure normal plant
growth.
Ordinarily, many farmers
would have turned livestock to
grass by now; however, because
of the unseasonable weather
practically all cattle are still
in winter quarters.

Pasture Dairy Ration
Despite the fact dairy cattle were fed well all winter
they could lose weight if fed only lush, green pasture.
Pastures are high in protein but low in carbohydrates
and energy.
SHUR-GAIN PASTURE DAIRY RATION is high in
carbohydrates and thus provides the energy lacking'
