Wo at tit dnc FARLEY ASAI hdd DN REVIEW: The Borelians, poor start ,happy ending by Bruce Arnold The triad of one actors presented by the Borelians at Port Perry High 'School "ran from very bad to pretty darn good. A wise scheduler juggled the order in which the plays were seen so that the good came last and left - the audience applauding wildly at the evening's end. It has been suggested that when dealing with those parts of the performance that needed improvement I be as diplomatic as possible. With that in mind let us just say about the first play, The Dear Departed, that it stunk, and leave it at that. The second play, "Early Frost" was much better. In fact, of the five actresses in it only Karen Taylor showed a tendancy to under act. Carol Aird as Aunt Louise and Janice Stark as Alice performed excellently. Kim Middleton gave a convincing performance as demented old Aunt Hannah and Janet Watson was EL 19 Division Street, HANKS EXCAVATING SEWER INSTALLATIONS Call now - Avoid the "Spring Rush" ® Back Hoe Dig Depths up to 181% feet. ® Compressor Rentals Phone 985-2333 Box 489 -- Port Perry, Ont. >OO® by Jim Rankin ® RESIDENTIAL ® COMMERCIAL ® INDUSTRIAL ® Farm Requirements Division of Ron Rankin & Sons CARPENTRY -PLUMBING - ELECTRICITY LOTS of LOTS WANTED We have builders who will pay TOP DOLLARS for lots, serviced, or unserviced.

Director Diane Lackie is to be commended for having gotten the best out of her performers. Most of the actors who suffered through The Dear Departed were back to redeem themselves in the Hundred and First, a hillar- ious farce in which the performers never let down on the excellent calibre of their acting through four fast moving scenes. The play is about an unemployed alcholic charity case (John Rodway) whose ambition is to be included in the hundred neediest charity cases which is published every year by a hearts and flowers fund raising outfit. Despite his sub standard intelligence, his severely neurotic wife, his idiot crippled son and a 13 year old daughter who is, "the favorite sport" in the neighbourhood the best he SPP PEP GOOG 7 Oshawa, Ontario "this can do is to be the hundred and first most needy. The shame of jt all drives him to crime. In addition to crediting John Rodway for the almost professional way he handled leading * role special mention must be made of the fine talent displayed by David Lepp as a, let's say effeminate, store owner and Ross Carter as the stumbling bumbling judge. There were no weak performances in this play, which also featured; Irma Lewis, Helen Jammer, Diane Barr, Kevin Bruce, Jean Kennedy, Stanley LeForte, Gail Glass, Don Foster and Roland Skinner. The Hundred and First, like the evenings other successful play, was direc- ted by Diane Lacke who . obviously knows more than just a littlbe about drama. Your reporter sat on the floor at the back of the auditorium as far away from the stage as I could possibly get. I heard every word. The acting, projection and costumes were all excellent, and the long applause was well deserved. The only problem was that the drama club apparently had so many of its members on stage there was no one left over to change the scenes. the result was an unlikely combination of a living room and a courtroom both on the same stage at the same time. As a newcomer to Port Perry this is the first time I have seen the Borelians perform. If the job they did on The Hundred and First is an indication of the calibre of talent available in this group I am looking forward to their next production with eager- ness.

PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, May 23rd, 1973 -- 11 Cafik supports partial death penalty abolition Norm Cafik told the Commons Monday he will support a further five years partial abolition of the death penalty because 'I person- ally refuse to be the hangman for society." But he called for amend- ments which would toughen the parole laws to make sentencing more appropriate to the crime of murder. Mr. Cafik, who is parlia- mentary secretary to Health and Welfare Minister Marc Lalonde, said he opposes hanging because it is not a deterrent to murder. It is unnecessarily severe, and makes it impossible to correct a wrong judgement. Instead, he suggested strengthening parole laws to make convicted murderers serve at least 15 years of a life sentence before they can: be considered for Under existing law, a convicted murderer sen- tenced to life imprisonment may be considered for parole after 10 years. Criminals who have com- mitted murder while in the process of committing anot- her crime which, would be punishable by life imprison- ment should serve a min- imum of 20 years before they are eligible for parole, he said. He suggested that pro- vision could be broadened to include escaping prisoners who murder a prison guard. Mr. Cafik said he wanted the sentence for premed- parole. "h, itated murder to show "a significant difference" from life sentences imposed for lesser crimes. He cited the 1970 case of the kidnapping and murder of Quebec Justice Pierre Laporte. In that case, he said the kidnapper faced no: greater maximum penalty than if they murdered Mr. Laporte. "Given that example, I think we must take some kind of reasonable action," he said. **"We must look at the maximum penalties and see them in relation to parole." NN !
