STREET ADDRESS CITY. ++PROVINCE.. Ld CONCERT SERIES, START SOON story," declared the Herald. R WINTER under Chairman Don F. MacRae which organized the series has planned a ticket sale that pro- vides 250 season tickets for stu- dents -at $1. Individual concert tickets for students will be sold at 35 cents. Adult season tickets, with only 250 available, have been scheduled at $4, with individual concert tickets at $1.25. There will be a total of 90 individual tickets available for each concert. Evidence of the interest the concert series has aroused was seen when details of the pro- gram were outlined at the H and S meeting. Requests were made immediately for tickets. Further requests may be made to the H and S Winter Concert series, Box 171, Oakville. Details may be learned by telephoning Col. Mac- Rae at 1152J or Mrs. John Ross at 203R. Indication of the high standard of musical entertainment to be presented in the series is reveal ed by the first concert. The Sol way String Quartette made its Toronto debut in 1948 and went on to win acclaim all across Can- ada as ome of the country's leading chamber music organiz- ations. The group has been des- cribed by all leading critics in terms comparable to that voiced by Saturday Night which said "it has made a most notable contri- bution to music in Canada." Miss Syme is recognized as one of the finest pianists now appear- ing in Canada and the United States. Within the last few weeks she returned from a successful tour of Europe where she appear- ed in concert recitals in England, France, Italy and the Low Coun- tries and also appeared as guest artist with several of the contin- ent's major orchestras. On leav- ing Oakville, she will go to Chic- ago to appear with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and later| will present a recital at New York's Town Hall where she made her American debut a year ago and won the acclaim of the crit- ics in that city. COUNTY COMMENTARY On September 21 the County Farm Forum committee mpt with the Federation of Agriculture dir- ectors in Milton to hear reports and discuss plans for the future. Mr. R. Howard, chairman wel- comed all representatives and em- phasized the importance of co operation between these two or- ganizations. The secretary's minutes and the financial report were given, fol- lowed by the County press re- porter's report. This brought forth quite a lengthy discussion and resulted in the following sug- gestion. That this meeting voice their hearty appreciation to the press for their co-operation in the past and we especially request all County editors to reserve a small space in their papers for the County Farm Forum press report. We also request that local forum secretaries report regularly to the County press reporter rather than to their local papers in or- der to eliminate repetition of re- ports. Mr. R. S. Heatherington gave a brief report of Halton Federation of Agriculture activities and fin- ances. One of the questions now under consideration is the ques- tion of taxation in order to ease the farmer's load, a subject all farmprs are fully aware of. Mr. Cecil Belyea from the On- tario Farm Radio Forum office in Toronto also spoke and empha- sized how rapidly the Farm For- um organization was developing and the part our findings are playing not only' locally, but with the federal and provincial govern- ments. Take for example the broadcast of last series on "Par- ity and Floor Prices." Great in- terest was shown not only by the press but by our members of Par- liament on our findings to those questions. Farm Forum Is the sounding voice not only for our Federation' of Agriculture but al- so for our governments. A suggestion was made by this meeting requesting a questionaire be sent out to Ontario Farm For- ums to discuss the finances of the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture and how they can best be met successfully. The meeting adjourned due to the lateness of the hour with a meeting called for about the mid- dle of October to make plans for the year's series. What A Hope! "Ladies, if you want to fib, this slves you fair warning!" Thus did the Georgetown Herald inform it's readers that assessor Joe Gibbons had been saddled with a new task this year--that of not ing the ages of all residents while taking census. "Joe doesn't antle- ipate any trouble with hims, but with the hers, it's a different Long Haul Happiest angler in town last week was Lloyd Wright, who hooked a 43-inch, 24 pound mus- kie in Georgian Bay, off Honey Harbour. It was a long, weary but successful tussle for Lloyd, who had no gaff hook in his boat and was forced to play his finny adversary patiently while putting in to shore. He finally landed the big fellow from a cottage dock. REGIMENTAL ROUNDUP By Lt. J. W. Wotherspoon Many of the lads from the unit attended a week-end of activities at the School of Infantry in Camp Borden. Due to the deadline of this paper not much information was available but next week we expect a full account of the scheme. The first group that attended the Thursday evening course on shooting did remarkably well. Members of the Oakville-Trafal- gar High School Cadet Corp top- ped the boys of "B" Company by a few points. It Is planned that competitive shoots will get under way very shortly, so = a chal- lenge board may be set A decided increase of Interest has been shown in the company with the influx of recruits. Many more young men are still needed to fill up the vacancies that are available. The personnel are now broken into platoons so that training may be advanced mire rapidly and recruiting may be put on a competitive basis. Ted Card after successful qual itying in the Junior N.C.0.'s course received his corporal strip- es while Homer Stennett has been advanced to Acting Corporal. The unit paraded Tuesday night to the Century theatre, where a display was put on in conjunction with the showing of the epic film, "Battleground." The display was arranged with a view to Inform- ing the Fite as to the activities of B Coy. TEEN TOWN By Don Lovegrove Election smoke has cleared, the debris has been removed, and victory cheers have faded in the distance. To say the election was a huge success would be a false- hood on my part. Less than 100 votes were cast for the top offices on the council, while school reps received very poor support. No form cast more than 20 votes, while one cast less than 5. This is certainly a poor average for a council on which the future of Teen Town rests. The High School swept the election with George Farrow as mayor, John Ford reeve and Wal- ter Allan as Bronte rep. Form reps are not all decided as I write my column, with Penny Cornel and Mike Snider tied in 1st, Ann Osborne and Bill Cudmore in 4th, Phil Crompton won 2nd. form, Charlie Watt, 3rd form and Bey Hills 5th form. Only member of council not attending High School is Ken Brown who is Town rep. and on whose shoulders rests the big job of representing some 100 working members of Teen Town. This group by the way has taken up as its theme song, "It Isn't Fair." Could be their melodious squawks are well founded. We'll be hearing more of this, however, in the next few weeks. A colorful parade, posters and decorations, election speeches, and the music of Bernle Saun- ders and his All-Stars combined to make Friday evening a huge success. Although election results blackened the evening for some, everyone seemed In high spirits as the dance broke up at mid- night and the cleaning crew swung into action. It seems that my position as Teen Town columnist requires my being another Dorothy Dix. One group has already come to me with suggestions and complaints pertaining to Teen Town and I can forsee more in the future. Nothing fis above criticism, so if you have a squawk or suggestion Just let me know and I shall do my utmost to present it through this column. Just a reminder that new mem- bership cards go on sale Friday 80 don't forget that all important B0c. Admission without a mem- bership is 36¢, with a membership 10c. Just think of the money you can save in the months to come. A real investment if you ask me.
