...bulk of Canada's 20 million people are clustered within an hour's drive or two of the U.S. border. Many of the nation's cities are within reach of wilderness where Indians still hunt deer. Canada remains one of the world's last frontiers, but it is subduing nature with the tools of modern technology rather than oxcarts and covered wagons...
Ginter is fairly typical. In a 250-mile radius of Prince George, miners are digging for mercury and steel-hardening molybdenum, copper and zinc. At least 125 mining-company whirlybirds are chopping the mountain air in the hunt for minerals. In the past three months alone, 130 mining companies have been formed, mostly to mine the craze for penny dreadfuls on the frantic Vancouver Stock Exchange, where, since trading opens at 6 a.m. to be on schedule with Toronto and New York, it is not uncommon to see tuxedoed partygoers stagger in for a fling of late action...
...Hunt. A burgeoning new school of camera-wise Spaniards enters a sturdy claim for recognition in this spare, gruesome drama about a quartet of upper-crust Spanish hunters-three middle-aged malcontents and a wealthy young sprout-who slaughter rabbits for sport.

Boozing and broiling in the sun, the men try to buy, sell and slander one another. The hair triggers of anxiety touch off frustrations over...

Object of the hunt was Harry Maurice Roberts, 30, who is wanted "for questioning" in connection with the slaying of three London policemen on Aug. 12.

Roberts' mug shot has appeared on the front page of nearly every edition of nearly every newspaper in the land, together with police warnings that he is armed...
...most promising comedies, on paper anyway, will be black, British or both. One, by Peter Shaffer (The Royal Hunt of the Sun), is actually called Black Comedy. Noel Coward will play in Suite in Three Keys, a triple bill of his own works, and Sir Ralph Richardson will be seen either in Shaw's You Never Can Tell, Sheridan's The Rivals, or both. Additional foreign works include the 1966 London critics' prize-winning The Killing of Sister George, the tale of a disturbed soap-opera star with an unsavory private life; The Loves of Cass McGuire...
