$0 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, April 8, 1954 HEADS DRAMA SCHOOL Sir Kenneth Barnes, head of London's Royal Academy of Dra- matic Art since 1909, is some- thing of a British "institution" in drama circles. He has seen hun- dreds of young Canadian actors come to London since the end of the Second World War seeking a career in English theatre. Many have studied at the academy. (CP Photo) ST. CYR MOVIE BANNED MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP)--The city censor board has banned the RKO picture "The Son of Sinbad" be cause of a dance sequence by statuesque Lili St. Cyr, the Con- treal strip teaser. Lloyd H. Binford the 88-year-old chairman of the board, said, "It was a pretty good gicture but it had one of the vilest nces I ever saw." Dancers from 37 different eoun- tires, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, are being invit: ed to compete in the 7th Interna- tional Festival of Dancing which will be held in the Music Hall, Edinburgh, from July 23 to 31. More than 8,000 competitors took part in last year's Festival, and to cope with the even greater num- ber of entrants expected this year arrangements are being made for several platforms to be in use at one time. The Festival includ 3-D Carpet Setting Texture, which has become a household keyword in the carpet category, is more abundant than ever this spring. Texture makes the interest an personality of a carpet, whose function is to pro- lg a cozy, warm background and also sound conditioning for a room. This season's texture is achieved by the inter-blending of related and contrasting colors for a casual ap- pearance and ease in keeping clean. New methods of curling, twisting and kinking yarns before they are woven have brought about a three-dimension textured effect. For the first time two or ngore pile levels are available in budget- priced rugs and cafpets. Ribbed textures are highly favor- ed and more pronounced this spring |. in all-wool and combinations of wool and carpet rayon. This sturdy ribbed weave \succeeds the solid color twist. It offers special inter- est and character that fulfills it function as a luxurious background without intrusion. A slightly ribbed textured effect ic created by the first tufted mul- tiple level looped pile cotton car-| pets. The ribbing is less distinct | than that of the tightly woven wool | or blend carpets, but it has a double interest brought about by losely tufted loops on two levels. Tufted construction popularized by the introduction of cotton car- pets, is no longer restricted to cot- tons. Several new all-rayon tuft- ed carpets will be available this] spring. This improved rayon | yarn was engineered especially for use in carpeting. To it has been added a new soil retarding process, which follows the trend toward easy care. Turquoise is the biggest color news in soft floor-coverings. Start- ing in the cotton lines, it has be- come important in wools, blends and 100 per cent carpet rayons. All of the space and earth tones, in- cluding terra cotta and nutmeg, vie with greens for highest popularity. Newest greens are in the yellow family, featuring tones of olive, avocado or celadon. Grays have amethyst or violet overtones. An- tique or tarnished golds are fre- quently seen as accent in floral patterned coverings. The most 1 hades of pink and rose the largest Highland Danc!

LONDON LETTER Victorian Hats With Flowers Coming Back LONDON (ENG.) BUREAU OF THOMSON NEWSPAPERS LONDON -- Hat designers aren't to blame if British women's head- gear doesn't get more than one glance in the forthcoming Easter arade. The hat designers are' try- g. For instance, a flower in the hair -- or on the hat -- has always been considered a fine policy but this 38 (Eitieh designers have tr the whole flower gar den. Not since Victorian days have posies been flung around by hat makers with such abandon -- and because to bloom properly a flow- er garden needs considerable space the Britshers this year have also brought back the Victorian boater with its ample brim. Big flowers -- peonigs and roses "~~ on hats, and little flowers fn a smother profusion -- mimosa, lilies of the valley and eornflowers --on little hats are the order of the day. And in case you want one, as an alternative to flowers, the de- signers are offering the veiled treat ment. At a recent show at the fashionable Claridges .Hotel the faces of some of London's most sought-after models were hidden under, not one delicately draped veil, but layers and layers of veil- ing, sometimes with the thickness of a ballet dancer's skirt. But will British women wear these hats? The current Spring shows indicate that Britsh design- ers can match their counterparts anywhere for wacky ideas. They also show, however, that designers here know their public. Included in most exhibitions were a Soodly number of those inconspicuous 'nice little hats' which the average British woman has worn since time immemorial. British Law As Practised Here Protection For Both Old And Young Guest speakers at the April meeting of the North Simcoe Home and School Association were Mr. J. A. Yanch and Mr. Neil Fraser, who were called upon to speak by Mr. R. A. Wallace, citizenship convener, on the topic "Citizen- ship", which Mr. Wallace said is up to knowledge of law and its administration. Mr. Yanch who spoke on "Legal Aid", said that it was indeed grat- ifying to see the marvelous re- sponse to the Hospital campaign; it clearly indicated that all are part of a public - spirited commu- nity in which the people recog- nized, accepted and did some- thing about their responsibility to the welfare of the community as a whole. "It was that same pub- lic spirit and same unselfish de- sire to help those who were less fortunate than ourselves that had led the lawyers of the Province ol Ontario to organize and develop a scheme of free legal assistance," said the speaker. Mr. Yanch said that there was .no hard and fast rule to determine who were or were not eligible; it usually de- pended upon the applicants' in- come and assets. During 1953 there were 23 cases handled by the Panel of Solicitors, all requiring considerable repre- sentation. Mr. Yanch gave ex- amples of serious criminal matters and domestic relations cases to show that the matters handled to date had been worthy and brought to successful conclusions. One of the fundamental princi- pals of British Law was that all persons were entitled to the pro- tection of the law. Accordingly elegible persons whose ceises were taken on; did not pay either the fees or disbursements -- the law- ver received no fees at all, and the disbursements were paid from special fund set up by the Bench- ers of the Law. Society, The Legal Aid Clinics were do- | a resident staff. Its principal rev- enue which came from the daily rate paid by the " municipality, came to a very substantial sum as there were a great many of these children. Other sources of revenue were from a Provincial grant, and a substantial donation from the community chest. Gifts, not neces- | sarily cash, which added to the! comfort and happiness of these children were also given by indi- viduals, The work of the Society was | both protective and preventative in that the workers tried to help chil- dren and parents where there was danger of a broken home and to {prevent more drastic steps having to be taken. The Society looked after 265 illegitimate children last year. There was a Family Court for {the county where Juvenile and do- mestic cases might be heard in private, The policy of the Society was to keep the child in his own home if possible, or to place him for permanent adoption or for tempo- rary: care in a foster home where {he was still a ward of the society.
