Monday to Friday you can hear his up-to-the- minute excerpts from the sporting world at 8.10 an. and- 6.26 p.m. fol- lowing the news. Thirteen years in broadcasting have made his "Good- Bye, Now" as familiar to radio fans, as his by-line on sports reviews in Canadian and American periodicals. ee Food and Peace The world cannot hope for a secure peace as long as great numbers of its peoples border on starvation and who are becoming increasingly alvare of their. poverty. in relation to our plenty. This statement was made at the annual meeting of the Canadian Fed- eration of Agriculture by the Prime Minister' of Canada who suggested that Canadians can help. to alleviate the world hunger by producing more through improved farm practices and sharing what they have with the hungry. No one can dispute the Prime Min- ister's argument. As long as people have insufficient food, they will re- gard those who have sufficient with suspicion and hostility. It is difficult to talk a person into being a friend when the shadow of starvation is lurking behind him. Some Canadians think we are pro- ducing as much as we can and that most of the arable land in the country is now in use. But increased produec- tion does not necessarily require more soil. It may be achieved by getting more out of the existing farm acreage. An announcement by the National Fertilizer Association . verifies this. The Association said that if grasslands in the United States were fertilized as recommended by the nation's agricul- tral colleges, the additional fertilizer 'would have made possible the produc- tion of almost 3,000,000 extra tons of beef. Moreover, if adequate amounts of fertilizer had been applied to land devoted to field crops, U.S. farmers could have increased their corn out- put by 22 per cent, wheat by 13 per cent. and cotton by 28 per cent. If this could be done across the bor- der, the same should be possible in Canada where facilities to produce fertilizers and other essential agri- cultural chemicals have kept pace with increased demands in recent years. One of the patriarchs of Canadian radio is E. V. Young 6f Vancouver, whose smooth, deep voice is heard Thursday nights at 10.30 on the CBC Trans-Canada: - network in the pro- gram_ "Eventide." For nearly. nine years he Has brought comfort 'and in- spiration" to listeners with his read- ings from the rich heritage of Chris- tian literature. He also reads extracts from religious works on the "Vesper Hour", broadcast in Western Canada In memoriams, cards of thanks, announcements, a minimum chg. | of 60c. | on Sunday nights. He is frequently heard in CBC drama programs and lis an active member of a Vancouver Little Theatre group. Airy hn dn lh.

' Charlie Brignall took home the $25 special Bingo Prize. His friends kid- ded him about buying an admission card so late in the evening after so many free games had been missed; but it, surely paid off. The Lions started this series of Bingos in a sincere effort to raise funds for the Community Hospital. It was anticipated that attendance would be much greater for this worthy cause than it has been to date, however, in the hope that greater support will be forthcoming, another evening is planned for Wednesday, February 20th, at 8.30 at the "Del" anit Hall. re ---- Music Festival Port Perry will be represented at this annual event by Norma Levinson, piano solo, under 14; Donna Samells, piano solo under 12; and Port Perry United Church Choir, open only to choirs in centres of population less than 25,000. Mrs. Elsie Dobson is the leader of this choir. This competition will run from Feb. 18th to March 1st. . Evening performances will 'be held nightly in Eaton Auditorium where the days' winners again are judged one against the other. At thie conclusion of the festival, say Kiwanis officials, two grand final concerts will be held in Massey Hall. Swimming in warm water ig of real benefit to the victims of polio- myelitis. The buoyancy of the water helps support the weight of the body and the warmth relaxes the taut muscles so that greater freedom of movemnet is possible. The Lakeshore Swimming Club under the direction of Mr. Gus Ryder conducts a special class in heated water for handicapped people. In many cases, this is the only sport they are able to partic- ipate in at all and it is a source of much pleasure and real encour- agement to them. Meet Mr. Gus with three-year-old Jimmy Ness who is now able to swim the width of the pool. The Canadian Found- ation for Poliomyelitis is proud to promote this very worthwhile pro- ject. Donations to the Canadian March of Dimes, 410 Bloor Street, Fast, Toronto, will help to sup- port this and other projects in the Ontario Centtes.
