More Canadian plays for future University of _ Waterloo English â€" professor and a specialist in Canadian draâ€" ina, is warmly enthusiastic. *‘ ""Given some solution to our _ constitutional | crisis, the next decade couldâ€"see some remarkable developâ€" ments,"" she predrets. "You couldn‘t call it a renaisâ€" sance because we‘ve never been there before. It could be a ‘"naissance." _ What she anticipates is: more Canadian playâ€" wrights writing more new plays to be ‘performed in more theatres with increasâ€" ing aud to coast. This â€" naissance _ would surely have an impact, she feels, on organizations such as the Stratford and Niâ€" agal:;;n-â€"ti;é;Lake" festivals which until. now have ofâ€" What‘s ahead for drama in Pornography crackdown {(Continued from page 1} they handle the situation "I can support your intent but I cannot put all the blame on the vendors." said Mr. MacDonald. Waterloo trustee, Lynne Woolstencroft was not in favour of supporting the motion without more reâ€" search and debate on the subject. She said that Mr. Reimer â€" had â€" overlooked one aspect in his motions and that was Dr. Bargen‘s reference to violence on television and in publicaâ€" tions. She said that in many ways violence is more damâ€" aging to young minds than pornography. She suggestâ€" ed that the whole topic of violence and the availability of pornography come under a full dressed discussion. Mrs. _ Woolstencroft _ was one of many trustees who tried to table the motion for further study but were turned down. DR. ROTA LISTER Woolwich trustee, Paul Haney. agreed with the jntent of Mr. Reimer‘s moâ€" tions but felt that sending letters to MPs and MPPs was unnecessary and would be misdirected ‘""We already have laws against â€" obscene â€" publicaâ€" tions." said Mr. Haney ‘"We are conterned with the enforcement of the laws. audiences from coast The trustee suggested that fered only token Canadian productions â€" one per season and sometimes not even that. ‘‘More and more, Canaâ€" dian audiences are demandâ€" ing Canadian themes, Caâ€" nadian locales and Canadian performers," _ she â€" says. ‘‘These are becoming box offite." She feels developments in the traditional theatre will be boistered by substantialâ€" ly increased Canadianism in the electronic â€" media (TV and radio) and a much more vigorous Canadian film industry. . Dr. Lister points out that A.W. Johnson, president of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, â€" recently . isâ€" sued a report calling for a substantially _ enlarged talent basis for CBC drama programming and increasâ€" ed funding for script develâ€" opment, pilgting, producâ€" tion training and the develâ€" opment of young writers and performers. All this, Dr. Lister feels, will mean new career opâ€" portunities for. increasing numbers of people. Dr.â€" Lister® has been teaching both undergraduâ€" ate and graduate courses in Canadian drama at UW. She also initiated the jourâ€" nal â€" "Canadian â€" Drama‘ and remains its editor. The journal, published at UW, doubled its subscripâ€" tion list in the past year. Subscribers â€" include â€" uniâ€" versities, colleges, libraries and theatres in Canada and universities and libraries in the U.S. and Europe. letters to the Attorney General and Chief of Poâ€" lice might be more effecâ€" tive. Mr. Reimer agreed to add this recommendation to his motions. Separate school represenâ€" tative Herb Altman said that praise should be given to those vendors who have already removed this maâ€" terial from their stores or displayed it out of the reach of children. He suggested that the Board make it their business to find out to what degree the availabiliâ€" ty of pornography is a probâ€" lem in this area. _ Board Chairman, Harry Janke. said he would welâ€" come â€" further _ discussion on the matter and would schedule it for the agenda of a Committee of the Whole meeting. He would like more information on what other bodies in the community have done in this area. Trustee Norm Hill of Wilâ€" mot said the Board should ‘clean up its own house first."" He said they should look into the type of literaâ€" ture being solid in the board‘s book mobiles. He asked if the trustees or teachers had ever read any of the material or were aware of the content. He has received numerous comâ€" plaints about the material in these books RAIN dampened participants and booths, but Cheese festival, Saturday.
