The Mini- ster reported t.hat in spite of a record number of visitors to the Province during Centennial year the 1956 influx greatly exceeded that of the previous year. increas- ed advertising was credited with bringing about the increase.

Politicians U ncertain l About TV Appearances 1 UITAWA (C?)-For the first time in a federal election. televi- sion klclg lights will take their place on the hustlngs this year. Politicians. still a little uncer- tain about how to make the jump from the election stump to the TV studio. are nevertheless anxious to make the best use possible of this new way to reach the people. The prevailing view was ex pressed by Solon Low. Social Credit leader. in a recent inter view: "At least you can reach a great many more people through TV than you can through weeks of travelling." The pattern of political TV broadcasts in the coming election campaign. before the vote anticl- pated in June. has not yet been set. At the last election in 1053. when TV was still a ltrnlted fac- tor. the CBC was prepared to of- fer free-time election broadcasts to the political parties but they decided against it. Division of CBC free time among the parties this year is ex- pected to be band on a formula to be worked out at a meeting among the parties and the CBC. USE PRIVATE S'l'A'l'l0N3 does not apply to private stations. and political parties are expectedl to make some use of that method of getting their message across. Mr. Low. in the interview. ex- pressed some doubts whether a great deal of political TV would be a good thing. . Ha said that nowadays people don't get out to election meetings as much as they used to. but there should be caution that the stay- at-homes won't be swamped with political TV to the point where they would turn off their sets. 1 However. Gordon Churchill. Pro- gressive Conservative MP and one of party leader John Diefenbak- er's chief aides. indicated he doesn't think that will happen. He said in an interview he doubts whether enough TV time will be. provided. l CLOSELY REGULATED Under broadcasting regulations' applying to all stations. both CBC and privately-owned. there are limits to what can be done on ptr litlcal broadcasts. ln general. the! rules prohibit dramatizatlons of l political appeals. But with the ad-l vent of TV. the rules were relaxed ' 4 Woman's Auxiliary Life Member- ship certificates were presented by His Lordship Right Rev. R.H. Waterman. D.D.

He felt the larger administrative units should first be established and then let the people within it determine for themselves their own needs. Once the unit was set up he wished to see it as independent as Pohslble. He said that the thought of region- al high schools scared the districts because of the immediate large expenditure while on the contrary the establishment of the larger ad- ministrative unit effected immedi- .. ate savings. A On this point Mr. K.A. Parker, Superintendent. of City Schools. said there was a general miscon- ception in thinking the larger schools were the first step.
