There will be prizes to be won and gifts to be given, and ex- hibits that move, and flash of colors and talk of the wonders that make up this complex Canada of ours. TRAVEL -- One of the new features this year is the Travel and Tourism Building--the for- mer Governments' Building recognizes the increasing im. portance of travel in our afflu- ent society. One out of every « five persons travelling outside North America is a Canadian, Not only do Canadians travel more they spend more on travel than -any- other -group in the world--$35.20 per capita, which is four times the figure for United States tourists, Something to attract almost every travel taste will be in- cluded in the displays in the new Travel and Tourism Building. INTERNATIONAL--Displays' in the International Building by foreign government this year include Poland, the Federal Re- public of Germany, the Swedish Trade Commission Hungary, Czechoslovakia. Canada will be represented by the Federal De- partment of Forestry and the Department of Justice. BETTER LIVING CENTRE-- In the Better Living Centre where products of Canada's manufacturers: are proudly dis- played there will be two un- usual exhibits this year. Ontario Hydro celebrating its 60th anniversary as a public utility in the province has com- pletely renovated its 10,000 square feet of display space. In a building mainly devoted to the display of manufactured goods for the consumer, Hydro has arranged a "fun display" without one piece of hardware. INDIANS--In the same area and occupying more than 4,000 feet of space is the Indian Hall of Fame. Introduced last year the Hall depicts the Indian To- |" day and Yesterday. Under the joint sponsorship of the Federal Indian Affairs Branch, the Federal Exhibition Commission, the National Centennial Com- mission and the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition, the Hall is in- tended to give due recognition and honor to outstanding In. dian people who have contri- buted to, and are contributing to the development of Canada. Portraits of 10 outstanding Indians were included in the dis- play last year and eight to 10 more portraits of outstanding men and women are being added this year. GRANDSTAND-- Four head- line acts will be featured on the CNE Grandstand this year as Impressario Jack Arthur takes a look at the Swinging Sixties. The show will depict the brand new sounds and bright faces of the era, with four gigantic pro- duction numbers for which the CNE is justly famous, There will be Midge Arthur's Canadettes, the world's longest precision dance line; the excit- ing Rogge Sisters from Italy with their acrobatic act on roll- ing globes, the five Medinis and | four Boginos, acrobats Alan Michaels and Company, Helen and Howard Novelty Comedy Dance team, Canada's own Billy Van, as well as the Taylor Twins. ORCHESTRA--Howard Cable, whose 60 piece orchestra has backed some of the greatest names in show business at the CNE will be back again with | his ensemble of Canada's finest musicians lending support to the bright array of talent that has been assembled for this year's mammoth production.
