^^'^T ~WP^ Bound For Texasâ€" Clem Shefchif, 19, left, and Bob Heise, 20, take a last look at Milwaukee at they set out on the first leg of out on the 1500-mile horseback trip which they figure will take their journey to King County, Texas. The youths plan to camp about thrM months. WIUTGOES ON IN THE VOfiLD Norman Blair THE UNITED STATES Not long a^o t^t big question r«KardinK tetevision was what, if anything, would be Ht future. To- day the big question is: What is the future of those who look at television, and how will it change their lives and habits? I'rincrton an<l RutRers Universi- ties li.ivf been conducting surveys r«K'ir<Iing these matters, and al- thoui^li they are somewhat limited in scope, some of the conclusions reached are highly interesting. I'AiMILY UNITY: Television has brought the family together in one room as nothing had been able to do in the past. Even after a year or more of use the set in the aver- aye ♦oiisehold is "on" for 3 to S hours a day, and to maintain a deg'-ce of househokl harmony strange €oni_ romises are often essential. Thus the television wife may find herself speaking a casual authority regarding the punching ability of R^cky (jraziano, and father may be wondering if there is no end to the puppet shows that intrigue the younger generation. The kids, of course, look at almost anything. but although the family is brought much more closely together than before, if all members sit in abject silence hour after hour, there may be actually less real family socia- bility than formerly. RADIO LISTENING. There isn't any doubt that radio listening ia being drastically affected by tele- Tision. An overwhelming majority of television owners report that they now listen less to the radio. In the evening when the best tele- vision programs are on, most of their radios are not operated at all. ]n the daytime, when household chores prevent motionless concen- tration in from of the television screen, radio is no, noticeably af- fected. Maw still listens to the "soap operas". But it's increasingly clear that the broadcasfkr who tries U> operate both radio and television is pretty much in competition with himself. READING; While the younger ||«neration seerns able to do home- work and listen to the radio at the sAme time, television docs not allow lor reading a book while watching the screen. But apparently reading Ic one habit which is at first rather •Irongly affected by television .and then gradually tends to return to hf old level. Among those who lead books the decline in reading may run as high as 30 per cent or more during the first six months after u set is bought, but after â-  year or so the decline is hardly soliceaiile. CONVERSATION: Whether the art of conversation is to be killed hy television is a subject of much been debate. One writer says that, with television demanding silent concentration on the part of view- ers, Americans tend to become a "chair-bound, myopic and speech- less race". The lack of speech is Most noticeable during the first days of set ownership, however, •nd experienced viewers report that, •t a later date, conversation may be •tiniulated by video programs. INELUENCE ON CHILDREN: This i« of prime importance be- cause the habits of children may be decisively influenced by the .ilmost- •ontinuouE show coming into^the home. Television introduces svsn the very young to the sort of enter- tainment which, ordinarily, tjiey would not lie seeing until mueh older. On week-ends there have been ra«e» of children looking as much as fi or 9 hours a day â€" al- most half their waking hours; and it if a I are household which, at Opc t OK or olhrr. has not found tele- vision a problem in the matter of completing home lessons. The decision as to the "right" time for supper may also result in a discipline problem, what with video programs for youngsters run- ning uninterruptedly from 5 to 8:30 p.m. For the parent, television if a mixed blessing. It can keep a child occupied if the adult wants relief from youthful noise and energy; but it can also keep the child occupied far too much for his own good. Possibly, for a column of this kind, 1 have commented at too great a length on such a subject. Still, I don't' think so. There is a real possibility that television may prove to have as great an effect as the American â€" an<l, later, the Cana<lian way of life â€" as did the invention of tlit automobile. ISRAEL Jerusalem is gradually reluming to normal. Tank-traps aiul barb- wire are being removed except in a few places and buses are begin- ning to trun again on old routes instead of the roundabout ways occasioned by road-blocks. Many modern shops arc springing up on the rubble of bombed buildings. Most of the requisitioned holy places are being returned, except such as Notre Dame, which is on the front line and will probably be the last to regain its complete sanctity. In the old walled city life goes on in the same ancient Oriental fashion that has not changed over the centuries. There is little water and no electricity. At many points along the Jeru- salem-Palestine border there is the problem of "illegal" immigration. Arabs are trying to come in at any cost. They had established a black market and smuggling operations which would have reached large proportions except for Israeli vigil- ance. The only thing which stopped such maneuvers were clashes over prices or deliberate murder. Some- limes bodies with contraband goods Itill intact were in evidence. Cigarettes were one of the main items of this Illicit commerce. Where they cost 75 cents a package la Israel, they can be bought in the old city for 27 cents. There was also smuggling of human beings. That wholesale "illegal" immigra- tion has now been stopped. Arabs DO longer try to infiltrate in any large numbers as it means death- or long prison terms; and the Jews arc not eager about it for the same reason. Now it seems to be a mat- t«r of ordinary police action to maintain the status quo of present population distribution. mm tot the fbst time in Lol these many years a traveller through Ontario finds the people in the small towns and villages actually taking an interest in â€" of all things â€" the doings of the Toronto Bate- ball Club * * • This is somewhat surprising as â€" wit'h the exception, of course, of the hockey Leafs â€" Toronto teams and anything connected with the Queen City are not particularly popular throughout the balance of our fair Province. * * * But the team which Joe ZiegUi' and Del Bissonette got together seems to have caught the fancy of one and all. It didn't do so well at the start due largely to an inexperi- enced catching staff. But the com- ing of Mr. Wagner to do the re- ceiving made all the difference, and the Leafs recently performed the rare feat of coming out of the depths and climbing right to the top of 'the heap, largely while per- forming on foreign fields. * • • It's only the game fish, tlie say- ing goes, which swims against the currept â€" although the truth of this, like that of a lot of other hoary adages is open to question, as we ssem to recall seeing several vari- eties of fish battling upstream that were never classed as particularly game. * » * But there's no doubt that it takes a ball team with plenty of viscera to play better on alien soil than they had been doing right on their own home pastures. So it would not be surprising to see, before the season is over crowds flocking Tor- ontowards not because the races art on at beautiful Woodbine or gorge- ous Dufferin, but to see some base- ball of better than fair calibre. * - • * It can happen again, just as it used to happen back in the days when the Maple Leafs were win- ning pennants â€" something they have done just eight times out of sixty-four starts. But lest you think this is a pretty feeble percentage of wins, we might add that only Rochester with ten, and Baltimore with nine have topped the Toronto mark. * ♦ ♦ We don't imagine very many of our readers will recall the first time the n^me of Toronto â€" like that of Abu Ben Adhem who used to bore us so much in Public School â€" led all the rest to the payoff station. For that was way back in 1887 â€" gee, we can hardly remember it ourself â€" and the club that year was managed by Charlie Cushman. All wf can tell you about that team, aside from |thc manager's name, was that a gent named Slattery stole 112 bases that season, which leads to the thought |that eithef pitchers didn't pay much attention to the base-runners in those day.8, "or else that it was a good job the saliva test had not yet been invent- ed. » * ♦ Burleigh Grimes' winning of the pennant in 1943 is too recent to re- quire comment â€" although it doesn't seem too icarfiilly recent for Maple Leaf Stadium regulars who have sat and suffered ever wnce. And as it looks as if space is fast running out on us, we'll only add that al- though Del Bissonette's 1949 ath- letes may not bring Toronto its ninth pennant, right now they look like an outfit that will be fighting right down to the wire. Great Remover An exchange says that alcohol" will remove grass stains from sum- mer clothes. The exchange is right. It will also remove the summer clothes, spring clothes, autumn and winter clothes, not only from the one who drinks it but also from hit wife and family. It will also re- move the furniture from the house, the eatables from the pantry, the smilsi from the face of hit wife and the happineti from the home. As a rtmover of things, alcohol hit faw squalt. â€" Moravia, N.Y., Re- publican-Register, September 16, 1898.
