Hodgson said that generally he agrees with or.

Many citizens May be listed As members of the club but the work Falls on the shoulders of a very Small group sometimes centring primarily on one Man.

The Community clubs receive if it did t have Community clubs it would have to run rinks at the same locations. So it counts the Cost of the clubs at each. Below Vancouver the rate he said.

Mass appear to seen lowering us standards by Michael Best free press staff writer a leading British poet and critic says that selection of to pro Grams on the basis of their mass Appeal is leading to lower and Power debasement of standards in and from what he heard to standards in the . Are even the comment comes from sir Herbert read who arrived in Winnipeg sunday to take part in the University of Manitoba festival of arts. He has t seen any amount of Canadian to yet but from what i be heard it somewhat better than in the he declared. In Britain there Are two to systems the state-owned1 bbl and an Independent system. The scramble a e tween them for viewers was leading to a quantitative criterion of program selection instead of a qualitative one. Lower debasement the bbl sir Herbert said was being forced to lower its standards constantly and the result for Bri Tish viewers was a lower and lower one result of the situation was that television would have nothing to contribute towards a Renais Sance in poetry. Sir Herbert is pessimistic about the future of the Art which has Long been in decline but if there a Renaissance on the Way it could begin in the skiffle and by skiffle groups he Means obscure groups of musicians play ing in off beat spots often for their own enjoyment and improvising their own music and lyrics. I Don t mean they re the sole he declared but we must look in places where there is vitality and creativeness and that where you he. Said he had once held High Lopes for what radio would do for poetry at the creative level but he Hopes weren t fulfilled and be expected even less from to. He linked the decline of the Art with modern education and its emphasis on scientific and materialistic philosophies. There was no fundamental opposition Between science and the arts As far As he could see in act science itself could be taught y artistic Means but current education drives a wedge be Ween them and each the same emphasis on science and materialism might make Man find race space Ravel a race to destruction sir Herbert warned. Huge sums were being spent in efforts to reach the Moon but what Good will it do he asked. There was no Cor responding development of Man moral and aesthetic Side great potentials you re putting into the hands of human beings great potentials for destruction and Power without any sense of.

Of votes will John Tanchak separate Liberal arid conservative sense to use these new Powers to help humanity we re going to destroy he saw in the scientific advances a Challenge to the human mind to find other applications for then that would produce human betterment. The Root of the dilemma was the education system which during the past 100 years had put in acquisition of knowledge accumulation of facts while entirely ignoring the fact that the human personality is duplex made up partly of conscious and partly unconscious conscious faculties if we concentrate All education on conscious faculties and neg Lect the instinctive impulses that Are controlled by the unconscious that will Lead to he said. Sir Herbert believes that modern Art and sculpture Are an expression of that part of the human personality that being neglected by our education and if Many people find the expressions difficult to understand it because they be been victims of the one sided education. Artists were not wilful and arbitrary expressing themselves in abstract forms but.

Frank Casper when the counting is finished around 10 . Thurs Day. As Good a Way As any of pick ing a Winner is to put both names in a hat and draw one out. You be got a 50 per cent Chance of being right that Way and1 although i feel or. Tanchak should hold the seat in the Liberal column i d say my chances of being right Are roughly 51 per cent. Calls it like this chief reason for or Tanchak a slim Edge is a negative one the conservatives face a mighty difficult task in winning a. Seat in which they Haven t run a candidate for 25 years despite an apparent trend against the government the conservatives should come out of the West end of the Riding with a healthy Lead. The town of Emerson will Likely give or. Cas per 70 per cent or More of their ballots. Dominion the other Large poll in the extreme West end should also go for or. Cas per but not by As big a major Ity. In the East end of the Riding around Sprague South Junction and Piney the liberals will pro Bably end up with a slim margin. This area is traditionally straight Liberal and in the 1953 election when or. Casper was the official government candidate he polled 501 votes in the three towns mentioned against 74 for Independent Liberal John Solomon whose appointment to the Bench necessitates the by election local issues this year or. Casper can hardly expect to get a majority of these votes but on the other hand or. Tanchak will not get the same overwhelming support accorded to the official Liberal candidate in 1953. Local issues and resentment against powerful Liberal Assoc a i Tion Bosses in the area Are cer Tain to Cut heavily into the huge government vote of 1953. Therefore taking the West and East end of the Riding together it would appear that or. Casper will probable have a majority of the votes cast. This leaves the Central area the District where the huge about 42 per cent of the total ukrainian vote is concentrated. The big vote this ukrainian vote which is traditionally Liberal will undoubtedly Settle the by election. Conservatives say that if they can take 20 per cent of the bal lots., in this. Can win. Liberals living in the area Coji need that the. Conservatives will probably wind up with about 20 per cent. I believe they Are both wrong. To. Have a Hope of winning the conservatives will have to get at least 30 per cent of this vote. And i believe that just about what they la receive. That is How close the race looks Little More than 60. Hours from the polls open. To provide some idea of just How hard it is to pick a Winner in this by election Here Are some of the More important questions that require an answer before its possible to predict with any cer Tarity what will happen the questions will happen to the ukrainian vote 2. How Many votes will anger against the Liberal Bosses in various areas of the Riding the government 3. How Many of the votes or Casper received last election were cast for him personally and How Many did he receive because he was the official Liberal candid ate 4. Will the vote for John Solo Mon remain in the Liberal column 5. Will the Federal Victory of the conservatives affect the by election vote 6.1 what will be the effect of or. Casper switch to. The conservative 7. Will the withdrawal of the ukrainian conservative candidate persuade ukrainians to vote against the tories those Are the questions Here As far As i can size up the. Situa action Are the 1. Or. Tanchak who is considered or. Solomon Succes Sor will probably poll around 70 per cent of the ukrainian vote. In the last election Solomon received about 84-per cent of this undoubtedly lose the government some votes. 3. Or. Casper at a guess should be Able to hold on to Well Over half of the votes he received last election despite the fact he is now running As a conservative. 4. Possibly 15 per cent of the ballots cast for in the 1953 election will move Over to or. Casper and the conserva Tives. 5. The conservatives Victory in the Federal Field seems to have relatively Little effect on the voters in Emerson. 6. Perhaps surprisingly there seems to be Little reaction to or. Casper switch. It. Will lose the conservatives very few votes. 7. The conservatives May drop a few votes because of the withdrawal of their ukrainian candidate but not As Many As they might have feared.
