JOS BY THERE'S NO DOUBT about it, - Oshawa is growing up culturally, particularly in its aspect of the theatre. Wheth- er it is because Oshawa Lit- tle Theatre has graduated from a high school auditor- jum and McLaughlin Library to a real theatre and thereby absorbed a professional feel- ing, or whether the greatly increased -membership __ re- flects the present permissive society, I don't know, but it was a highly sophisticated audicnce that enjoyed itself to the hilt at the opening per- formance of a definitely ris- que comedy at Eastdale Col- legiate on Wednesday night. An audience laughs for many reasons and one of them is to cover embarrassment. There was none of that kind of smothered mirth and not a single 'Tut-tut" when mini- frocked Cyrenne, a proper trol- lop, proceded to disrobe for the benefit of Percy the Gorm- less. Congratulations to Marion Dennis, the director, who brought realism and at times, pathos, to what could have been a tatty bit of tawdry and to Maureen and Ray Lang- ridge, the warmest praise for their courage in tackling such difficult roles and the aplomb with which they carried them off. "Rattle of a Simple Man" depended on them and they upheld it. They were heard; their movements were moti- vated and they were centain- ly seen. As a rule, exposure is unkind to amateur actors and this is where Maureen scored. From the moment she stepped on to the stage, she was no longer Mrs. Lang- ridge, but a common little kind - hearted tart. Ray had 'Percy' well in hand, keeping the complex character within the bounds of credibility when he could so easily have overplayed and lost the poignancy. His store of mixed emotions never ran out. Rex Williams provided just the right sober note and base to the heady triangle; a hil- arious beginning for a prom- ising season. One' last word: the program notes made interesting read- ing before curtain time and the inclusion of the Cultural Calendar showed a nice spirit of co-operation with other performing and creative groups in the city. MRS. B. R. WARD of Brooklin tells me that she is looking for knitters. There is a home knitting project being launched from coast to coast to make blankets, helmets, shawls and vests in dark col- ors (for camouflage purposes) for the Vietnamese babies who are the innocent victims of warfare. Prominent in support of this kind of campaign is the Board ov Evangelism and Social Ser- vice of the United Church of Canada. Originally set up to provide medical aid for Viet- nam civilian war victims, the Prepare Kitchen Utensils Now Avoid Panic In By ELEANOR ROSS by the Oshawa choral Society about two years ago. nice night fi JOURNAL JO ALDW!NCKLE Women's Editor of The Times Vancouver: committee has extended its efforts to include provision of knitted garments, mainly for children. The extent to which this has caught on can be seen from the fact that there are now nearly 1,000 volunteer knitters from. B.C. to New- foundland taking part. Six shipments sent since July last year contained 3,263 wool- len garments and bed covers. Patterns and_ instructions are sent on request to VOW Knitting Project, 577 Jarvis Street, Toronto 5. Mrs. Ward is eager to supply any fur- ther information. A news item in the 'United Church Observer" to this ef- fect brought 165 requests for instructions, followed even- tually by parcels containing the finished products in the form of clothing and quilts. This activity is not restricted to women. Men, too, can get into the act, There is a real therapeutic value to plain knitting and, a hint to over- weights, it's better to knit than nibble, while watching you-know-what. WHAT DOES all this add up to in the kind of world we live in? Compared with the vast need, the gigantic forces on the other side, they may seem to add up to noth- ing more than the puny effort of a handful of starry - eyed idealists. If the same tiny handful were holding out against a military enemy in some be- Jeaguered fortress, they'd be hailed as heroes, Are they any Tess heroic because they're just ordinary people scattered all over this coun- try doing something against tremendous odds, to help oth- 7 ordinary people somewhere else? THOSE who were lucky enough to be at Expo when the Oshawa Choral Society was giving its performances there brought back glowing reports of the reception ac- corded the choir. There will be an opportunity next Sat- urday night to hear the choir sing much of the program it gave at Expo, at Fastdale Collegiate. For added measure, Larry Marshall will be the guest soloist. Larry is at present at the University of Toronto Conservatory of Music, fur- thering his musical education. He has had a number of of- fers to continue his training in Europe but, so far, has not accepted. Hugh Martin, the choir di- rector and other knowledge- able people consider that Larry will one day be one of Canada's top tenors. He sings tenor solos for Bloor Street United Church choir and mus- ic - lovers will remember him in the leading role of Gilbert and Sullivan's "Yeo- man of the Guard" presented November 25, 8:15 p.m. -@ inging. | wl Se For Ideas More "Do not open until Christ- mas."

SURVEY THE SITUATION Take a good look at kitchen! equipment even now--even be-| fore picking tentative party dates and making up guest lists. Chances are that you can not only eliminate makeshifa cook-| ing situations, but open the door to new ways of entertaining. A good starting point is that traditional holiday event--the family reunion. With the right equipment, it can be made into} a delightful buffet with more} fun and less work for everyone Cook-and-serve casseroles and portable aluminum electric ap- pliances are ideal buffet aids, especially those coated witty non-stick finishes. Essentials for holiday entertaining should in-| clude at least two casseroles, a large electric skillet or griddle and a party-size automatic) coffee-maker. A warming tray is fine for hot hors d'oeuvres or for a freshly baked pie. The alu- minum electric corn popper fa- vored by the teen crowd can also be used for heating soups, sauces or puddings.

"The American public only buys fashion," said the mana- ger. "Make Montreal the Paris of the New World." If it seems difficult, another store executive noted that London has succeeded. It had become a focal buying centre, not by copying Paris but by creating distinctly British clothing The comments are included in an article by Wiley Mill- yard, Canadian consul and | trade commissioner in Phila delphia. He wrote the article for Foreign Trade, the Cana- dian trade department maga- zine, after a survey was taken in the city In an effort to discover sow to sel] Canadian-made gar- ments in the United States, two officers from the consu- late' and two representatives of Quebec's department of in dustry. and commerce met senior merchandise managers of four main department | stores and a leading ladies' | specialty store in Philadelp- hia | The city was chosen, Mr. | Millvard explains, because it | is the fourth largest in the ative one."
