Michael HoUett Herald editor Bright lights and boiling studios Relax Nash Harry and the rt of video journalism hoi Michail won be moving in on your territory at least for a while yet A few of you who In your search for the correct lime wcither or latest hockey score happen to turn to Cable four week might be surprised to sec my smiling mug staring back at you Last week myself and two other local took part in taping a television allcandidates which idmittedly has not received the huge audience that Sunday night between the parly leaders did With the prompting entile and the local Jayces we spent about an hour and a half taping a question answer period with five of the six Brampton George townnndidales last Thursdiy The show is being broadcast throughout this week since I a thanceto look at it and catch myself in a highly pose I not afraid to admit the event took place Under show format we gentlemen and woman of the press did our best to grill the five candidates with our prob rig questions between he lights and the that last Thurdiy would have been more suited in middle of railer than May ourselves candidates were equally grilled not by the debate but rather by the heat pretending you would jacket the hottest day of the year when you re Inside a roam with fiercely hot lights directed straight at you 1 did it you don notice the rivers of perspiration pouring my face it miracle Fl FY Before debate as 1 ruihed to make sure I hid enough questions lo me through the show the mmule time slot seemed imposing got going aid five count em five politicians had a chance to pontifical and proselytize on pressing political problems the time flew by Out despite the and near fatal work rip conditions of the it was an interesting and revealing experience though I question its primellme Each character in the cast of the five political players hid his own clearly developed personality Incumbent MP Boss Milne he appears to be in a tougher fight than he had probably anticipated this campaign did his best to project himself as the steady responsible incumbent MP He tried to answer and With as many facts as he could muster the questions directed at him by the press Despite this he managed to slip r quips primarily directed at his Conservative J I I tile mud played his role tens si Hi Ins appearances came across as a goo hopef who came to the debate armed with lets and a supply of smiles A few viewers may have been I his youth when viewed e JOKt Jie across as a one joke No mailer what issue was being d or po was rj set until response was Ihc same the parties to spend oil your money while i I jckl The individual and the private sector will lu all of society ills could have saved a lot of turn holding up flash card that he was for a comment I mmunial Jim Bridgcwood was probably i aimer and less wild eyed many would have expected considering his parly affiliation But once he Ins moult his sounding comments mi nopoh til ind the like probably lost a good chunk of Ti J 1m has said before that he has a id temper but he has mistered it I hate to seem like m piekint the fellow but after Thursday 1 d say he still mastering that temper Of ill the candidates was ihe one that not resist heckling laughing and commenting while other candidate spoke was guilty of another fault whieh have criticized htm for before when given the opportunity he rarely gave clearly defined policies 1 was floored when ihe candidates summation period when they were lo Iheir programs chose In Press for the lime saying he would hard in his constituency and most of all urged us all to mailer who for thing tells me he would rather Milne M eectera voters slay home on May rather than v him bull the that will probably have Ihc greatest loeil voters both by word of moulh and personal will be tonight allcandidate meeting at As for me I crawled home from the sweaty studio Thursday slipped Into some shorts and parked myself in front of the Montreal hockey game on TV now thai s And as for television ell I think I slay behind my rather than in front of the TV cameras Letters to the Editor Voters should vote on policies To the editor of The Herald Trudeau As we the federal in our history I am hoping that Canadians will judge political candidates on policies as opposed lo such frivolous Items as why Joe Clark his luggage while on a world tour Pierre became Prime Minister In April Consider the financial record of his administration source Public Acounls Department of Finance percentage figures have been adjusted to take inflation into account l in 1963 the gross federal debt was billion in it was MO billion increase per cent When asked Pierre Trudeau to explain this while he was in Edmonton last year lie typically evaded the in 1978 13 percent of the federal budget was devot soley lo interest payments on debt This would be like every working Carta paying jusl lo cover federal government In since annual federal spending his increase 105 per since 1968 Ihe annual federal deficits have Increased 4 per cent due ravoginf inflation what would have cost in 1968 cost SI in 1970 Increase per Inflation is by a number of factors Ihe most important factor is irresponsible government This is a record of monstrous Incompetence and utter dlsrc for Ihc welfare of the Canadian people We have hail eleven years of financial disaster can we afford five years Sincerely Peter D Alberta supports center proposal The following letter has been sent to Ihe mayor and council of Hill J Dear Mayor and Members of Council Georgetown Little Theatre would like to advise you that It strongly the concept of a combined theatrelibrary exhibition gallery in downtown Georgetown as proposed by Ihc Town professional con As active members of the Arts Plus Committee we ap preciated being first hand by Bob Bailey and Keith Wagland as to their final re commendations prior their being made public ft our opinion the revised concept is an excellent com promise in lhat will not only preserve the Integrity of the former church both out side and inside but will also provide for a virtually com plctcly new library building hereby satisfying critics of the previous addon als and at ihc same time permit the erection of a fully equipped theatre with pcrma raked seating This ex imaginative concept made possible by Council initiative in securing options on three nearby properties will undoubtedly assist greatly In revitalizing the downtown core without overly disturbing the residential nature of Mar kct Street Furthermore In blending the proposed two new structures with the present librarychurch building has arrived at on integrated concept which would appear to fully comply with the Ontario Municipal Board a ruling In giving our unequivocal endorsement to Messrs Bail and a proposals with respect we feel we have to add one caution namely that should Council decide to pro ceed with this proposal it imperative in our view based on the unfortunately often ne gative experiences of other community groups that the architect selected to translate this concept into actuality should at the least be as juuunlcdjuutile ex petfenced in theatre design as The opportunity nave a theatre in which the whole Town of Hills can lake pride must not be marred by final design features inscn si live performers require ments whereas the final result might look good from the perspective of house operationally perhaps because of architectural logs back and below stage it could be i continuing source of frustration to engaged in staging productions would again like to assure Town Council of its continuing support and coop eration in developing the best possible theatre facilities and to that end would request the opportunity for cons a lion with the architect prior to approval of final drawings Finally il would be our hope that council will see its way clear to moving ahead with this imaginative proposal since It holds so much promise or the community as a whole Thank you for the long over due recognition of the needs of the arts In this community Yours sincerely John floe President For your home away from home or rec room
