LEWISTON, NG¥. (CP) —-: While executives of ‘Canadian’ performing and ' visual arts organizations fret about rising. prices, tight” ' budgets and huge deficits, a booming arts centre in this town, just across the Ca- nadian border near, Niagara Falls, seems to feel’no pinc at all. . ' It has a 2,400-seat opera house and concert hall and a © 200-acre' park devoted to painting, sculpture and Kindred arts that draw _ Pcrowds from June -to Sep- tember totalling half a mil- ion people. - They are- family crowds, al who -pay.cnly $1.50 to park JAMES GRAY‘ their car — no‘ matter how many are in the vehicle — and, if they want to go into the theatre, no more than $6 , a seat.

When it opened | seven years ago, there were [fers that it could cut into He took r By ALISON HARE The Canadian Press Michael Carin risked life and limb on the Atlantic Ocean to write his first novel, Five Hundred Keys. He and two others battled fierce gales and gut- Wwerenching waves aboard a. . Newfoundland long-liner. He wrestled with the wheel. through seemingly endless shifts, watched the water supply dwindle and waited in vain for land to appear-on the horizon ‘— all the while Shaw's: business and draw | heavily on Canadian tratfle. At ‘first; Artpark politely . avoided”.making a direct pitch ~ for Canadian audiences. But now it has - publicity people In Toronto and is Canadian media, assuring . the Shaw Festival it is not in direct competition with it. Artpark’s theatre presents musicals, operas, ballet, the popular and classical con- certs, but no plays. The $7.2- million opera house and _ concert hall has magnificent: acoustics for musical shows _, but is not suitable for plays. “Whey should, we even try” to compete. with the Shaw spokesman said. . The concept at Artpark is that it is a recreation area where families can come and taste the arts in their various forms, or simply have a picnic, go fishing, or sun themselves on the lawn. David Midland, former general manager of the © Brooklyn Academy of Music who has been executive director of Artpark since it opened, says’the box office pays only about 25 per cent of the cost of running the place. This is a far ery from Canadian arts organizations ‘which, as a rule of thumb, wishing he were anywhere but adrift on the ocean, Carin, now 29, has written the adventure of five years ago into his novel, replacing himself with a character named Richard Kaplyn. Carin and Kaplyn are, for all intents and purposes, one. and the same, the author said in an interview, and the - adventure is authentic in every delail except perhaps - one, Kaplyn was helping to smuggle hashish, 500 kilos of advertising .In — are expected to earn about - half their operating expenses at the box office, In fact, the © _ well-established big summer operations like the Shaw and, Stratford Festivals bringin a good deal more than that. Midland, ‘briefing -Canadian reporters at- tending the recent. dpening of the Shaw Festival, said the New York State recreation. office's idea in sponsoring Artpark is that it should be accessible to all. Ticket prices should be kept comparable with what people pay for other kinds of recreation. He noted that only a couple { f L * of miles away there is a state Festival, ‘which ‘has a far”” pi better theatre for plays?” a park and public swimming - pool. which charges 50 cents: admission. But for every person using that pool, the state pays another §1 towards the cost of its upkeep, Midland says that ratio between public price and state subsidy prevails through most of. North America’s facilities. So why shouldn't it apply to the arts? For a minimum $3 and a maximum - $6, visitors to Artpark can see performances by both rising young stars and ‘the big established companies, for which one would pay $50 a seat in New York, The the precious brand known as Zero-Zero. - ; ’ Carin won't say whether he was. But there is more to the story than the ocean ad- venture. It is a reflection on student activism and the drug scene in the late 1960s, an analysis of how drugs dulled the students’ rebel- liousness and eventually put it to sleep.

(CP) — Dolls discarded in the _ local dump don’t stay there : long — not if Leonie O'Hara has anything to do with it. _ Mrs. O'Hara, 83, who lives with her daughter and son- _ inlaw Mr, and Mrs. Howard : LaRock, takes the discarded ‘dolls LaRock finds in the i dump, repairs their broken limbs and dresses them. Some she gives away, others are sold at auctions ‘and- about 60 share , her bedroom. Much of the fabrics and lace she uses to dress the dolls also come from the dump. It takes her two or three hours to sew clothes for a large dolland more time for a little one, ‘because they are fussier.” - The finished product. is complete with underciothes, dresses, crocheted booties, nighties, hats, ribbons and jewelry. _ One of her three bride dolls is. dressed in fabric fram an Baa SS or = Bo f ay Lenda hand... 8 BA, toclean — & 4 f. our land : Keep Canadas a ; e i 4 : Beautiful™"* 4b bb 0,0 ,0.8 0001.00 0 Ee bn ttt, te" e'e°e’ rater ee a MT seeeehahseleteaioy stale aac ol nana aries ce tole alnSeastel ssepeaeaetiete es a as ‘ArtEl, a _ recreation | he popularity and wealth =} Bélshoi ballet performed | ‘there’ ast year’cand ,the..

Kathryn - Brown, ° Aiko Suzuki, who works in fibres, * Sean O'Huigin, in words, and Ann Southam, in sound — are taking over ArtEl for the last week of June to present an unusual manifestation of art combining their forms. - Midland says the main appeal of Artpark is that it is oriented towards family activity. [t is cheaper to take children to Artpark than to leave them at home and hire a baby-sitter. That is one way of over- coming the barriers .to getting people interested in the arts. isks to write book dark blue skullcap atop his — blazing red hair, is the im- passioned leader who incites - the students of McGill University to rebellion. - But when the rebellion founders ito lethargy, David begins meticulously plotting ‘the drug operation. He abhors the very thought of smoking, ‘fails to un- derstand the drug scene but sees the operation as a way of raising a war chest for his political cause. Phil, who lives as far as - - possible by his own rules; Xenog Lazar, a schemer in his own right; Teresa, part- nobility, part-gypsy, and Stefan, a strange figure whose love is carpentry and - whose business is. dope dealing, are other charac- ters in the novel. ; Once Kaplyn joins the crew the element of ad- venture overwhelms all else. For a time Kaplyn, even "forgets about the §2million cargo which,. Carin says, illustrates that “the voyage itself is a testimony to the spirit and temerity of the times."'- Carin himself says he was vitalized by the experience. He embarked on it knowing he needed the adventure to build a book around. _ Kaplyn, a would-be writer, did the same, although he ‘had for a time believed he could write by intellect alone. . “Am I supposed to make commitments with my nervous system or my digestive systemi?” he had asked. .
