Industrial Award: Although not yet established, much interest has been created over the suggestion to last Year's Awards Committee that there be an Industrial Award. Your comments and suggestions on this would be much appreciated. The terms of reference presently usggested are: To be presented annually to the Company in Canada which has made an outstanding contribution to the advance of Food Science and Technology; Nominations for this Award shall be received by the Awards Committee by February 1 of the year in which the award is to be given. Such Nominations shall be accompanied by sufficient supporting information to make it possible for the Committee to judge on the merits of the contribution; The Award shall be a suitable plaque presented to the recipient at the Annual Meeting of the Institute, along with an outline of the achievement. Such an Award is suggested for the following reasons: 1. Many advances in Food Science and Technology in Canada go unnoticed: 2. The Award would focus attention to advances being made in the Food Business in Canada: 3. Hopefully, the attendant publicity would be advantage to the manufacturing company and the Institute. May I have your comments, if any, on the advisability of CIFST adding an Industrial Award to their list of honours. G. W. Andrich, Chairman Nominations and Awards.
News from the Toronto Section Congratulations To: Jack Meyers on his promotion from General Sales Manager to Vice-President, Marketing of Stange Canada Ltd.: and to Dawn Gerrard on her change of marital status from Miss Gerrard to Mrs. Adams. Their Membership Committee is also to be congratulated. Recent enrollments show 5 more Professional Members, 4 more Associate Members, and 8 more Student Members. There are also 3 Transferrees, including our good friend George Liebel, who was a very active Montreal Director and Editor of our former News Letter. Although scarcely new news, I must take the opportunity of congratulating Randy Friesen, a long time friend ,a Past President, and a good Western Product, for taking the "Low Gross" in Toronto's September Golf.
An interesting extra from their October Meeting was the donation by one Company of 100 tons of a nutritious Baby Food to Oxfam, for use in Pakistani Refugee Camps. The material was unwanted excess production that was to have been destroyed. Les Smith's story, at the October Meeting, of his visit to some of these camps resulted in this action. Other Companies should take note of this SiPlendid contribution, should they encounter a similar situation. Left to right:- Mr. Hans Nel, South African Embassy, Ottawa; Mr. J. J. de Knokke, Cooperative Wine Growers Association of South Africa, Toronto; Mr. Art Humphries, Chairman - Ottawa Section. Over 200 members and friends of the Ottawa Section recentl~ attended their Annual Wine and Cheeses Party. This was the hrst meeting of the Season and was held on Sept. 17, in the National Research Council Cafeteria on Sussex Drive. It featured a selection of South African Table Wines and a wide variety of fanadian Cheeses. Prior to the tasting of these delicacies, two Ilms were shown: one provided by the S.A. Embassy on tourist attractions and industrial growth in South Africa and the other provided by the S.A. Co-operative Wine Growers Association on the production of \Vine in South Africa. J. Inst. Can.

Toronto published the work of two of their wits: One, in long amusmg verse, has F. & D. close a1l our Food Plants because of pollution and bad sanitation and the other with equally amusing prose shows how dangerous it is to eat. Thus I am prompted to add the following: So pollution and contamination Will by F. & D. examination Close each and every Food Plant. But the very same abomination Will direct all our consideration That for our good health, eat we cant. So who cares, if by determination F. & D. give wholesale condemnation To plants no longer needed, we shant.
