J. Green said the federal government wil oniy continue aid to the Canadian be convineed that financiai. help uranium-mining industry if it can is necessary. A spokesman for Eldorado said th§t in regard to the Port Hope operation, the governinent's an- nouncement is not iikeiy to have any direct effect.* Eldorado, he said, i'ad ehanged it's operations to doing eusfom conversion of material even from U.S. tival Mixture For MoÈýsport Word broke out last.week-end that Mosport Park in Cl'arke :wnpmay aiter ail be the seene of a form of rock festival. Over the week-end and on Tues- day traveilers were looking for Mosport -track in anticipation, of the activities being booked there for 'August 7, 8 and 9th. Although some confusion ap- pears to exist tic event will be held in conjunction with a ser- ies of motorcycie and go-kart races. The- added. entertainment has been reported to include "a carnival of sight and sound" a- long with ferris wheels, candy floss, marchin-g bands, and 'some contemporary entertainiment'. The Metro Toronto Police Pipe Band is reportcd to be a feature on Friday night, aiung with rac'- ers, beauty contest entrants, and other gro1ups. -It is ho ed that 'het-ween 15000 and. 20,000 people wili buy $15.00 tickets to attend the' event. The Toronto Telegram. on Sat- urday in a news story reported that few people in Toronto and Mosport Park areas were aware that it's going to take place and few knew exaetiy, what kind of event it's going to ie. Accordinýg to sources in Toron- to and New York, the event is a earry-over fromn a pop music fes- tival originally scheduled for >Siediac, New Brunswick, which was, disailowed because the New .flruLswiick Government, revoked its license. The advertising for the event has been ambiguons, s0 it is re- ported. The littie advertising that has been, distributed in Ontario emphasizes that it's nothing more than a series 'of. motorcycéle races eallýed the Strawberry Caýp Tro- phy Races, with some 'contem- porary entertainment added'. The bulk of the advertising, is in the Eastern seaboard of the U.S. There, the *emphasis is on, the 'eontemporary, entertainment' announcing that Mosport Park is t ,o be tic site for a giant rock festival. The Teiegram story also states groups such as Erie Burdýon, War that ads proclaiming various and Grand Funk Rialroad were played over radio stations, and printed in Newspapers in Boston and -New York. The story also states that Bill Howard, te$ e ecretery-reasurer for. Les Producions Sportives, tie organization running the event, claims that this U.S. oriented ad- vertising 'is a vast mistake'. Part of a press release distri- buted by Les Productions Spor- tives states that 'our company is inerested in inicreasing the sport of motorcycle raeing.' A spokesman for 'Les, Produc- tions, as reported in the Tele- Moncton, N.B., recently. The tic- Mosport 15 beîng produeed by the same organization that attempted the StrawVberry Fields Festival at kets sold there wili be honoured at Mosport'. gram, said that 'tis, festival at Severai other points are also clear: That John Brower, former mentor behind tie now-defunet iold a peace festival at Mosport Park. e4riler tus year, is acting Karma Productions that'tried to as a consultant; that promotion complications that beset both the New Brunswick effort earlierl last week, and Karma's e.arlier this of the event is aimed at avoiding theatrical attorney, Jerrold H. year: and thiat a New York City Kushnick is doinýg tic bookings..
