City-TV's "Free For All" Recently, I discovered a brand new television show called "Free For All" which comes from Toronto. The program originates in City TV's studios on Queen Street, just a stone's throw from City Hall. I was fortunate enough to see the "Free For Ail" show with True Davidson, ex-Mayor of East York, who was filling in for the show's regular host. Admittedly, my first im- pression of the two-hour program was hilarious. It was the funniest show I can remember seeing locally - all Canadian talent. Further, it beat all the comedy extravaganzas I have seen so far, both on the American and Canadian television networks. It made the former Bob Hope Show and Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour look like pretty serious stuff. It would be rather difficult to find another TV show which could match the "Free For Al". style and topics. In two hilarious, free-for-all hours (including commercials) the TV viewer like myself was generously treated with Right Wing outbursts, a singing star who couldn't sing (incidentally, the songwas called 'Impossible'), a self-appointed character analyst who went just a bit further than analyzing your iffy character, and the usual charade of drop-in guests who are allowed to speak up in front of the TV cameras and get things off his (or her) chest. Oh yes, there was also the usual number of irrate tax- payers, angry housewives, disgruntled businessmen, loonies and plain old nuts. I'm told that "Free For Ail" program is the place where everyone can sound-off without getting into a full-grown brawl. This is exactly what happened on June 16 when sone Right Wingers (better known as members of the Western Guard) decided to introduce their own ideas in the show by challanging the good old True Davidson and the audience in a Nazi-style, free-for-all display of SS salutes and swastika armbands. As expected, the police moved in and dispersed the more radical members of the television audience. But, by next morning the whole thing was blown out of proportion. The Toronto Sun's front page headline screamed: "TV blacked out bywhitepowerdemonstrators." Also some radio stations used the Sun's story, but CBC TV (having checked out the story) reported the incident much more cautiously. The Toronto Star, reporting the same demonstration, played down the story. using it on page 2, and The Globe and Mail, as night be expected, was still snoozimg away. Then, the Toronto Sun's story was the only source of information. One paragraph read: "Another reporter at the scene said it reminded hini of "newsreels from Hitler's Germany". First of ail, I'd like to know who that other: reporter was who got carried away. Knowing Sun's staff- reporters, most of them weren't even born when Hitler came to power, let alone being familiar with Hitler's news reels. Simply, this was irresponsible journalisn at its best. In fact, so irresponsible that even CFRB radio station lashed out at the Sun's front-page story. And worst, Sun's own columnist True Davidson begged to differ. Thus, one thing is clear: a better class of journalism is needed, right now.

Avoid Grass-burn Apply Lawn Food How to spread fertilizer to avoid grass-burn is outlined in John Bradshaw's Lawn and Garden Guide. Mr. Bradshaw is one of Canada's outstanding horticul- turists and is well known through his radio and television programs. He prepared the year-round guide for Canadian Industries Limited and it is available free from CIL lawn and garden products dealers. "All CIL lawn foods are guaranteed not to burn 'when used correctly'. But how should you apply lawn food correctly?" Mr. Bradshaw asks in the guide. "Use a good spreader with an accurate flow-setting. '20 lb./1000 sq. ft.' means exactly 20 lb. Not 15 lb. nor 40 lb. For a perfect lawn, you need a good spreader. The 'CIL Cyclone Spreader' is one I can heartily recommend." "Apply in the morning when the dew is off the lawn, but before it gets too hot. Water generously after spread- ing 1g get the plant food working. However, don't water-in 'CIL Lawn Doctor' or 'CIL Weed & Feed' until three full days after treatment." "Fill the spreader off the lawn with the spread shut. Open spreader only when moving along lawn. Shut off when turning corners and before stopping." "Walk steadily at normal walking pace. Otherwise you'll get a 'spotty' lay-down of lawnfood, and a spotty lawn." "Spread criss-cross to -prevent over-laps and 'rnissed' areas. Cut the recommended flow rate in half: for 'Golf- green', 'Lawn Doctor' and 'Winterizer', set spreader at 10* lb./1000 sq. ft. For 'Weed & Feed', set spreader at 4 lb./1000 sq. ft. Criss-cross the lawn. This covers each part of the lawn twice, and each -part thus gets a full feeding." "Brush away spills, and hose down. Don't leave granules of lawn food or pesticides lying about. Hose out spreader after use."
