All plays will be presented at Eastdale Collegiate Audit- orium. Tickets or subscript- ions are now on sale for this season and are available by calling 576-6292 in Oshawa, (OLT ticket chairman). The 1974-75 season is a milestone for the Oshawa Little Theatre. This year marks the Silver Anniversary for local performing artists, whose subscription list of over 2,000 is amongst the largest in the country. It's a 'something for everyone' season, with, a musical, a Canadian drama, a classic love story and a comedy. Opening the season will be one of the most memorable musicals of our time. Lerner and Loewe's "CAMELOT", under the di- rection of Marion Dennis, promises to be a spectacle of colour, costume and sound recalling the days of the knights of the round table. The Oshawa Little Theatre was founded in 1928 and the Rotary Hall on Centre Street housed the first productions. Unfortunately, the depression forced the newly created group to close due to a lack of funds. In 1950, Mrs. Gordon Conant (wife of the former Premier of Ontario) and several other influential people in the com- munity, took up the initiative and encouraged a new begin- ning for the "O.L.T." Now, some 24 years later, the group has successfully presented 81 three act plays and some 25 one act plays, during the course of which they have accumulated numerous dramatic awards. Approximately 100 sub- scribers saw the first present- ations at the O'Neill Collegiate and Vocational Institute Aud- itorium. Four years later, the McLaughlin Public Library housed the next 35 perfor- mances which included "St. Joan", "Our Town", "Ghosts", "The Glass Mena- genie" and "The Lark"'. Membership grew steadily and in 1966 the group moved to their resent location at Eastdale Collegiate, where such plays as "The Crucible", "Inherit the Wind" "She Stoops to Conquer" and "Plaza Suite" were staged. During the current Silver Anniversary season some 2,000 theatre-goers will enjoy "Camelot", "0f the Fields Lately", "Abelardtand Helo- ise" and "Cactus Flower". These plays will be staged on the spacious 40 x 20 foot stage which accommodates 20 - 30 actors comfortably. Even though the stage facilities at Eastdale are adequate, OLT lacks storage space for props and costumes. The present inadequate arrangement bas prompted OLT members to plan to build a permanent rehearsal hall and workshop, so the plays may be practised and costumes and properties may be stored all under the same roof. Since June of this year, Bill and Betty Fitches have been sewing costumes of their own design for Camelot. This energetic couple has been operating on an astonishingly low budget of $500, while simultaneously co-ordinating fabric colours with the set. After the performances in November, these costumes, numbering over 100, may be rented or auctioned to raise money for the building fund. These magnificent costumes are currently being displayed at Eaton's, Walkers and Lizanne's at the Oshawa Shopping Centre. The cast for Camelot comprises 44....many from the Oshawa Choral Societv.

Hererare a few recreational calendar - and a safety tips from the Ontario safe one at that. Safety League. 1. Make sure the children have light colored costumes, or put reflective tape on dark costumes and treat bags. Reflective dangle tags that hang from clothing and reflect oncoming car lights are a good idea all winter. These are available from the Ontario Safety League at 25 cents each. Reflective tape is avail- able at auto supply stores, and fluorescent paint at craft and hardware stores. 2. Encour- age make-up on faces instead of masks which may obscure vision. 3. Be sure to check your child's treats before allowing him to eat them. In some instances, parents have found razor blades and other objects in apples and candv bars. 4. Set up Trick or Treat curfews and boundaries for your children. Accompany younger children yourself. Make sure the children travel in groups. 5. Children often forget traffic safety rules in their excitment. When you drive on Halloween, be espec- ially alert for Trick or Treaters. 6. Keep porch and yard lights on to prevent tumbles. 7. Discourage van- dalism by putting away out- door furniture, tools, play- things. 8. Avoid fire! Pump- kins should be lighted by a flashlight - not candles. 9. Don't let children enter homes or apartments. Stay in your own neighborhood and visit only lighted homes. Adults who are intolerant of children are usually known throughout the neighborhood; avoid them. 10. Call on one side of Starting O the street and then the other.
