the acton free press acton ontario i thursday january ttth tfw behind the mike mot of our readers and we suspect many who are not our readers know the situation back of getting the editor to do the neighbo news broadcast last sunday many of our friends both in and out of town iave told us or thefr enjoy ment of the broadcast and been most kind in their comments of the experience in a new field we ourselves had not only a new experience but gained a first hand knowledge of the task of the other fellow in this case it was don fair- baims ob like all understanding it has been good for us and we certainly hope don enoyed the opportunity of one sunday free from his regular duties let us tell you all that the fifteen minute pro- giam involved a lot more time than most listeners realize and since don has never taken the trouble to tell his listeners of the hours involved perhaps we can relate the time we spent and then a de duclton of half could be made for our inejtper tence and listeners can understand what don s ob takes in and editors can realize they are not the only ones on the grind r week cbl studios two weeks ago before don fairhaun left for the west we went to toronto to meet the staff and see the auartersm which purworkvyguld be done reid forsee is director of programs for cbl and we had a most interesting visit seeing the back shop m the broadcasting business when we refer lo we in this case it is the editor and his son and associate jim we were to have the assistance of miss ring who painstakingly goes over the 200 and more papers that come in each week and clips all the items logical for the broadcasts she ferrets out ell tbose little items and over 90 birthdays many times buried in tittle rwo or three line items in the correspondence miss dobson types out the script for the broadcast and knows to within a few lines of the amount of copy required office desk space was arranged in two separate build ings one for friday and at cbl on saturday 200 papers and all we started before noon on friday and left jim on the ob friday afternoon while the- editor presided at a meeting of the executive committee of the canadian weekly newspapers association morepapers carnetn duringttlctayiiflefnoonaocl saturday morning we were at work in cbl offices until time for lunch this was eaten in the cafe tena of the building about two o clock our script started to take shape from all the piles of clippings some were duplicates and from the sorting emerged the senpts that were lo make the broadcast shortly after four oclock miss dobson had all the copy end before five oclock she assured us it was suf ficient then the trip to the broadcasting booth a trial reading of the script under a stop watch to see that it came within the required lime it s been many years since we worked or ran with someone holding a stop watch on us theres always the tendency to spee3 up and do as much as possible m a given time and it s difficult to overcome that feeling but there is always that guidance of stretching out of the hands from the director to let you know how time is running along finally you get the down beat and the broad cast is on to read aloud for even five minutes mith no interruptions seems a very long time if you dont believe us just try it sorne time you haven t an audience at least you think you haven t but you know right well its likely the biggest audience you ever addressed that s all the timing was right the bb was done and all that remains is for you to listen rfo your own voice when broadcast time comes be cause its like newspaper sork t isn t all vw tten oi produced on the day of publication munrtpafrtte5 an watching voh merest for the legislation forecast in the da ly press which will give relief to municipalities tn the raising cf taxes its to be hoped realization w 11 be made that toronto is not the only oppressed muoci pality by the tax burdens whats in a nairn since the broadcast of neighborly news las sunday folks al home have given us quite a rib bing about the george part of ouf name locally vie are known by our other name it all came about thts way when we met folks in the news paper arid other fields away from home we had quiwa lime explaining and spelling the name arlof it took lime and we found folks didn t use il and had difficulty with it fortunately we had two given names so we ust started to give our name as george whie was quite an ordinary name and easily remembered so outside of local fields we have become known as george and of coursewhen wo were broad casting to places outside of acton and milton we never gave the name a thought and became george and a perfect stranger lo those who know us intimately in milton and acton we answer to both names to all who know us so ust lakp your choice and use the one with which you are most familiar my fathers name vas george and a lillle grave in fairview come tery here bears ihe name of george macphorson dills there aren t any other living georges in the family now so there is no confusion and pei haps a liltle sentiment and recollection when we are called george dills other members of fammy have easilyjeinemberiidoiiuiijsjjcu pavo4ind jim yet to come while our part of ihe exchange of duties with a broadcaster are complete readers have the week to look forward to when don fairbairn writ es these editorial columns he and his staff made our part very pleasant and we know our readers and staff will do their best to make his task a pleasant one he will bring a new viewpoint lo our readers and we know a most interesting one we cannot tell you the date because that has not been settled upon but some monday we wont be writing these columns and we ii catch up on the saturday we lost 7

of carving sometimes a flaw would appear either m the stone or the chiselling unscrupulous men carefully hid the flaw with wax without the advantages of the modern better business bureau the buyer
