FAT CHANCE HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) Oh, it was a corker of an idea, all right. Al Levenson thought he'd announce the opening of his new apartment house by hav- ing an elephant stroll into the lobby, toting a pretty girl and a brace of suitcases. Levenson dreamed up some promotional lines like: 'The only reason women will leave their homes in the jungle is to live at my apartment build- Or, "'No small pets allowed, but you may bring your ele- phants." Levenson brought a three- year-old pachyderm, Lulu, and her owner, Scott Larkin, to the apartments Wednesday loading Lulu with Suitcases, frying pans, a bag of golf clubs and circus aerialist Kathy Lindsay. Lulu endured this through the frying pans and then, with a sniff, a twist, and a saucy | little kick, off she went down | the street, trumpeting her in- dignation and playing hob with the neighbors' flowers halfway down the block. ~ Levenson and Miss Lindsay lured Lulu with carrots back to the grand opening, and after the carrots Lulu rum- maged through Levenson's planter boxes for salad. % OSHAWA: Centrol, McLaughlin, O'Neill and Donevan No Money Down -- OSHAWA SHOPPING CENTRE OPEN TO 9 THURS. & FRI. end Henry Street High School ote Authentic Crested SCHOOL JACKETS CARDIGANS WHITBY: Anderson High School 9 OFF agriculture is in difficulty not because of the programs of ag- riculture but because of con- flicting programs of other de- partments of government For instance, it asked whether it is not possible that | the community planning branch of the municipal affairs depart- ment isn't inclined to regard farms as vacant land lying be- tween two cities. Also was there not a tendency for the municipal affairs branch to grant authority to permit taxing farmers into submission? Running down the list of vari- ous departments in the govern- ment, the brief told the high- ways department we may 'have lost sight of the fact that 10 acres of land taken away from a farmer may, in fact, be more than 10 acres of land. It may, in fact, mean the destruc- tion of an economic unit of pro- duction." iNickel Belt, Nipissing, Port Marie, Thunder Bay. |Haldimand, Carleton, Dufferin- OTTAWA (CP) -- A Liberal introduce this bill, along sith member of Parili from Teronte is planning te seek par- liamentary approval for an overhaul of Canada's divorce and birth control laws. Ian G. Wahn (L--Toronto St. Paul's) has prepared a bill which, if approved, would greatly broaden grounds for divorce provided "there is no reasonable expectation of a normal marriage relationship." Mr. Wahn says he plans to the birth control bill, at this The divorce bill would extend the grounds to cover desertion, cruelty, habitual drunkenness, excessive use of drugs, ex- tended imprisonment, insanity and extended separation.

In Canada at present, the only ground for divorce is adult- ery, except in Nova Scotia where divorces can also be granted for cruelty. There are no livorce courts in Quebec or Newfoundland and their cases come before the fed- eral divorce commissioner in Ottawa. Mr. Wahn's bill would extend the jurisdiction of existing courts, With a few specific ex- ceptions, provincial divorce courts now may hear cases only when the husband lives in that province. The bill would also allow the courts to hear cases from coupies who lived in the province prior to the ac- tion, and cases: involving hus- bands who deserted their wives in a particular province. Mr. Wahn's proposed birth- control bill would legalize the termination of pregnancy pro- vided it was done to preserve the physical or mental health of the woman. The operation would have to be supervised by a medical doctor after being ap- proved by the abortion commit- tee of a hospital. The pregnancy of an unmar- ried girl under 18 could be term- inated with the 'consent of one of her parents. The bill would also legalize the sale of contraceptives, and birth - control instruction, This now is illegal under the Crim- inal Code, Robert Prittie aby-Richmond) also has a birth- control bill to be introduced but it is confined to lifting the ban on sale of contraceptives.

The report for the year ended March 31, 1965, said the board has been dealing with li- cence applications for CATV systems on the basis of a re- quest from Transport Minister Pickersgill, but without any leg- islative authority. "Hopefully, some legislattive action will have been taken be- fore the time comes for the next annual report by this board," the report said. The board examined 59 ap- plications for CATV licences in the year ended March 31, 1965, and found that 46 of them would not make existing TV sta- tion operators uneconomical or inhibit the provision of alter- nate service in areas served by only one TV broadcasting sta- tion.
