A community health clinic for Capital Ward would serve the people in the Glebe and Ottawa South and possibly Ottawa East (25,000 people).

Half way around the world in small villages in India fabrics are being loomed, dyed and printed in beautiful, traditional, intricate patterns for Sarah Clothes. The natural dyes come from pomegranates,saffron, and indigo. The wood blocks are cut by hand and some of the traditional designs incorporated may go back several hundred years. Sarah Pouliot, with her incredible energy, perseverance and insatiable appetite for creativity and work has "created a unique look which has be- come a classic". She was the first to incorporate the popular primitive pleating with western-style designs. Sarah doesn't follow trends - she's a trend setter. "There's no pointin being a follower. When it's in the media, it's in the last stage. I,just go where it takes me, making women look more attrac- tive, graceful, lovely, feminine---more like themselves." Sarah sees herself as an artist. She has studied art but does not have any formal design training. By following her own intuition, innate crea- tivity and many long hours of hard work, Sarah has found success.

A Housewife Enters the Business World o There are three stores in Canada--the original location on Elgin Street which Sarah calls "small but mighty", a second in Toronto's posh Yorkville - 'Full circle, dreaming, creating and and now a third one in the Glebe at 775 Bank St. In addition there's a retailing." wholesale business.

At the public meeting, I proposed a motion, seconded by Michael Wolfson, President of the Ottawa South Com- munity Association, that policy issues should only be decided after consultations with elected officials and community groups. The resolution was adopted on a virtually unanimous basis. The meeting endorsed the concept of Lans- downe being developed as a community park, in other words making it a place for people again. This has the approval of the Glebe Development Plan and of the GCA on the Lansdowne Park Ad- visory Conuittee, where we are ably represent- ed by Don Ray and Bob Mona?han. My sense of the public meeting was that for the immediate by Howard Smith future the City should stop blocking funds and instead invest monies in the Park's recreation facilities.

The Mayor appreciated the GCA's actions and sent us the following letter.

Unlike some authors whose books have been reviewed in these pages, longtime Glebe resident Wilfred Eggleston is already well known as a writer. He is, however, better known for his nonfiction work on various Canadian historical themes (for example, THE QUEEN'S CHOICE, A story of Canada's Capital; THE FRONTIER AND CANADIAN LETTERS, and CANADA'S NUCLEAR STORY) than he is for his novels or his one book of poetry, PRAIRIE MOONLIGHT AND OTHER LYRICS. PRAIRIE SYMPir.ONY is one of Eggleston's novels. Set in Alberta during the period leading into the Depression, it tells the story of Christopher Niles, a buciding young prairie poet. Like many ambitious young men raised on the prairies during the time, Christopher not only finds himself isolated from individuals who share his love of literature: he also struggles against almost insurmountable obstacles in order to complete his education and to support himself, devoting all of his spare time to the perfection of his impecunious craft. Under such circumstances other loves would seem to be out of the question. As the Depression closes in around him, Christopher continues to deny his longstanding love for a woman while doggedly pursuing his dream of achieving creative greatness in his poetry. Eventually he is compelled to choose between ambition and love, and the young poet's tortured analysis of his own creative abilities becomes the means by Photo by Jinny Slyfield makes his which he decision. PRAIRIE SYMPHONY has been a labour of love for its author, on whose youthful experiences it is based. Composed during World War II, the original manuscript was unsold and more or less forgotten until after Eggleston's retirement when it was discovered in a box of Christmas wrappings. With the encouragement of his daughter, who had long been curious about it, PRAIRIE SYMPHONY was rewritten and subsequently published by Borealis Press. It is a novel steeped in the imagery and the history of its Western Canadian origins. Eggleston's descriptive prose assumes a poetic quality at times and it is this, in particular, which makes PRAIRIE SYMPHONY a pleasure to read. Wilfred Eggleston and his wife Magdalena, who is also an author, have lived in the Glebe off and on since 1929. Their daughter, Anne Elisabeth lives with them in their home on Clemow, where she maintains a music studio. Mr. Eggleston was on the first staff of Carleton College, where he taught English literature. When the School of Journalism was founded, he began to teach there, becoming its head in 1947 and retiring in 1966. His first novel, THE HIGH PLAINS, was published in 1938. He has also written an autobiography - WHILE I STILL REMEMBER. Ottawa readers will be particularly interested in a forthcoming book, LITERARY FRIENDS, a collection of reminiscences much of which is set against an Ottawa background. Wilfred Eggleston's books can be found at the Book Bazaar or at Prospero Books.

Photos by Jinny Glebe Report July page 12 Co-op Housing Growth Stunted G Brian Eaton N Co-operative housing is an idea that seems to be catching on all over North America. But here in the Glebe, it is having its problems. Co-op housing is a form of housing that is a cross between home G ownership and renting. Property is acquired by co-operative societies, either public or privately-owned, and is made available to co-op mem- bers on a non-profit basis. Members pay rent, or "housing charges", by Annie Woodbridge just as tenants would, but since they are members of the organization With the summer program or Camp Chimo and which administers the housing, they are in effect their own landlords, adult classes well underway, GNAG is ready to and have a say in the collective decision-making proces,.

"It's a wonderful place for an artist since it has been declared a national monument. No main structure can be changed, so the cobblestone streets and the facades of old buildings remain frozen in time." His sketchbooks are filled with rapid pencil drawings and watercolours which capture the people and the atmosphere of the little town. He found that the colours in pastels teemed to best compliment the mood but he experiments with mixing media for different effects. "The sense of light and colour is very different from here". Back in Ottawa, his paintings reflect a desire to abstract the academic style of the Mexican sketches. He uses glazes of oils to achieve a rich depth of colour and feeling. Gordon is a professional designer, portrait artist and art teacher. He is an By Jinny Slyfield instructor at the Ottawa School of Art where he teaches drawing and portrait classes.

Gordon also finds the structure of the Mexican Indian head interesting because of the strong planes and forms. "The majority of the people are a mix of Indian, Spanish and European. They are a handsome race with striking faces and features and I find them stimulating to draw."

Glebe Report July page 15 SPORTS South Ottawa Soccer news By Jack MacRae On Sunday, June 22, the South Ottawa Rovers Bantam 1 Majors, and the South Ottawa Atom I held a combined parctice at Walkely Road. This was great for both teams, as the younger boys had the benefit of a soccer clinic conducted on a low instructor to student ratio, and the older boys gained a bit of coaching experience. This first division bantam team coached by Jim Hamrouni is one of the best in the Ottawa Carleton Soccer League. During the first week of August Jim and his team are travelling to Long Island, New York to attend an international tournament. I am sure the club will be well represented. Another international game was played by our club Thurs. July 3 at Walkley Road when a combined team of South Ottawa Bantam 1 minors and South Ottawa Juniors met Boldklub of Nykobing, Denmark. Gens Viggo Nielsen, Micheal Bzorch, and Henrik-Sten Nielsen gave Boldklub a 3-0 victory. Claus Madson got the shutout. These tournaments and international exhibition games provide soccer playing youth a great opportunity to meet their counter parts from other na ions. r,hallod tb include a complete set of league standings in this month's column. However they are not available for publication due to a few clubs using unregistered players. Hopefully they should be available by next month. As stated in an earlier column the tremendous growth in the number of soccer players in the seventies has led to a great shortage of playing fields in Ottawa. Our club alone fields 21 competitive and recreational temas, plus 16 houseleague temas for a total of around sic hundred members. There are 43 other clubs in the OCSL John Savone returns a lob. this year with varying numbers of teams. Needless to say our club supports the use of Lansdowne Park for recreation purposes, and a regulation size soccer field should be a St. James Tennis Club number one priority.
