It was only a few years back that this city’s yearly “Port Day” and “ear- nival” fizzled out.

But we must prepare now to give our city something it can promote on a yearly basis to coincide with this po- ing more prominent tential tourist influx. With this in mind we cannot and must not sit stagnant. There should be some big event that will not only be an attraction to our residents and the many people that we now hope to have visiting our city but one that will cdso act as a magnetic force, bring- ing In even more tourists.

CANADIAN POLITICAL ROUNDUP Election campaigns will be confined By ARCH MacKENZIE OTTAWA (4) -— The April 8 election campaign may he more regionalized than in 1962, partly strategists say. In other words, things may be shid in one part of Canada that won't be repeated else- where, By contrast. all four parties in 1962 tended to lay down a firm platform nationally in the early stages of the campaign for last June's election. The situation arises in part from the results of 1962 when the Progressive Conservatives survived as a minority govern- ment on rural support and Li- beral gains were made mainly in the cities. Thus. it was probably no ac- cident that Prime Minister Diefenbaker’s Toronto speech Tuesday laid heavy emphasis on Conservative promises for urban development and = reo- development iussistanhe, Liberal purly sources agree that the prospect of a region- alized campsign is one reason for attempting to ensure more flexibility this time in itiner- aries and other plans. The Social Credit and New Democratic parties have simi- lar problem. Social Credit won 30 seats in 1962 but 26 were in Quebec and most were rural. Of the NDP’s 19 seals, 10 were won in British Columbia and six in Ontario—most of an ur- ban-industrial nature. CRITICIZE DISSIDENTS? It is reported the Conserva- tive party anticipates present- ing a line of argument jin some Prairie constituencies and in rural Ontario that will be crit- ical of Toronto dissidents who questioned Mr. Diefenbaker’s leadership, This argument, which can hardly be used in seeking to regain party strength in Tor- onto or other urban areas, may cultivate voling support among Prairie and other rural voters who have a traditional suspi- cion of Eastern industrial circles. Nationa] policy of the Social Credit and Liberal parties on nuclear weapons is expected to be at odds with a substant- in] body of opinion in Quebec. Social Credit Leader Thomp- son favors a decision by a non- partisan parliamentary com- mittee. Deputy Leader Real Caouette, head of the party's Quehec wing, has opposed nu- lear arms at home or abroad.

What is the procedure for playing the ‘po” in four- handed Cribbage? L.G. A.

In Draw Poker, how many cards may a player discard in the draw? W.C. A. Any or all of his five cards. However, sometimes players set a limit on the num- ber of cards thaat may be drawn because with many players there are not enough cards to po around. ee oe After 15 years, I had the oc- casion to revisit the plant of a smal) but very prosperous manufacturing company = at which I used to be a regular and familiar visitor.

To my astonishment, the men who had been obviously next in line for top promotions were still in line, and a couple of them had left long ago. The general manager is now one of the lads I least expected ta see rise to the top—a pleas- ant enough personality, but rather backward in what we usually consider to be the praces that make success. The man whom I expected to find in a top position was one of these who had left the firm 10 years apo. “Oh, he was a good man," said the one in line whom I took to lunch. “He had real drive. He kept a strict eye on the major expenses, but paid no attention to the small ex- penses—the little piddling de- tail of business, the extra phones, the additional clerks, the spare switchboard | girl, the extra typewriter, the petty eash, ‘so to speak. That’s where an awful lot of money gots down the drain, in business.
