Councillor David Fraser commented that it was the first time in his council ex- perience that the township had taken this kind of ac- tion. “Perhaps we should he doing more of it.

Phone 884-2552 ECombatting Bad TV Advertising Not That Simple CBA Discovers Only 8 People At Meeting There is a good taste mouth- wash being advertised these days that’s in bad taste. That was one general opinion' expressed by a panel of area women discussing bad advertisâ€" ing at a Committee for Better Advertising meeting Thursday‘ night of last week in Thornhill. However. the opinion could easily be a minority one as far as the general public is con- cerned, since only eight persons attended the discussions. At one point early in the meeting it looked more like a reporter's convention than a meeting to shaft bad advertis- mg. ad before testing it." Mr. Garrett who said he was representing the Federation for Canadian Advertising and Sales Representatives and Clubs, ex- plained what an ad goes through before being seen on TV. He said the ad would be shown to a sample audience, then placed on a test market. then the pro- duct would be counted on the shelves. then the commercials are shown in one area for six months, and “if the sales are up, the commercial is ready for the general markets." .I. LA __:_‘ Those who did show up, though, learned there is more to fighting bad advertising than just turning thumbs down at a television set. ‘ Keith Garrett, of Ronald- Reynolds and Co. Ltd., a To- During the past six or seven years. an increasing number of landowners have complained about the stripping of scattered immature sugar maple trees in the Goldwater area: northwest of Orillia. ' Originally confined to Tiny Township. the tree stripping is now seen generally throughout the whole of the township and has spread this winter through- out the neighboring townships of Tay and Medonte, and also to some parts of Oro Township. Culprit is the black squirrel. To reach the sweet inner bark which squirrels relish as a food, the outer bark on trees up to six inches in diameter and 40 feet in height is stripped off. If a tree is completely girdled ‘at any one point, it will die. Observers believe that the fondness for this food is passed from the adult squirrel to its offspring. and as the squirrel population increases and travels farther afield into new areas, tree damage becomes more widespread. Normal squirrel food at this time of year is scarce and lately the shortage has become less seasonal. Last season’s crop of beechnuts was at a premium and acorns were in poor condi- tion as many were insect-infect- ed. Under the Game and Fish Act a person may shoot a squirrel in defence or preservation of his own property. There is also a pelbuu Judy ahuuu a. nun“... r .4 in defence or preservation of!

Vaughan Township Council February24: Accepted the tender of Forest Valley Group of 102 Pemberton Road, Richvale, in the amount of $2,514 for removal of approximately 84 trees on township road allowances. This was the lowest of five tenders re- ceived, the highest from 01- sen Land Contractors was for $20,300. The other three ran $3,505, $4,330 and $4,589. Re-appointed J. D.

Briefs rontc based advertising firm, told the gathering “no adverti- 561' is stupid enough to run an ad before testing it." In spite of all this, he said, there are still many objection- able and misleading ads that get on the air. V So. how does one go about fighting the nastiegonflTV. Mr. Garrett said that any complaints about bad ads should be mailed to the Con- sumers Association of Canada, Box 99, Ottawa. “That organization, as I un- derstand, had about eight com- plaints in the last year," he said. Another alternative is to write directly to the companies who are advertising. If you don‘t like Bobby Hull skating around cars. write to Ford’s ad- vertising department and tell them about it. It’s unlikely you’ll get any action in that case as Mr. Gar- rett said. “Fords have been sell- ing very well since that com- mercial was introduced." Mr. Garrett pointed to three choices for canning bad com- mercials. “Get the advertiser to m'thdraw it. the media to re- fuse it or the government to prevent it." Networks are allowed 12 min- utes advertising per hour in Canada. and Mr. Garrett point- ed out that CBC uses much less than that. while CTV is still un- der the maximum amount. “Most advertisers are straight and do a good job.” he said. “The advertising community is concerned with criticism and considerable sums of money have been raised to give better advertising.” Not all ads, he said, are for everyone. Advertisers aim their message at assorted groups. “The average intelligence level in Canada is 14 years old." he said, “but some 14 year olds are pretty smart.” Mr. Garrett concluded. “it’s great that you‘re interested in better advertising. and this has to result in something. It is im- portant to get specifies of an ad. chapter and verse, and not just generalities.” personnel committee to council.
