Original Toronto Star caption: Lloyd Robertson is that nice-looking man who read the CBC-TV national news during Stanley Burke's vacation. That's his 3-year-old daughter, Lynda. The CBC has bigger plans for Lloyd Robertson-on-the-air editorial work that'll make him more than a talking head, As Robertson puts it, Just being a pleasant face is a bland sort of experience. He's on the move.

Yea. To Principal John Plumpton of Jane Junior High School in North York for trying to get more students to read books. Twice a week staff and students are given 50 minutes of the day just to read - anything they like. Some of them may discover that reading is a joy, even though it's a little more work than watching a TV scree. It's a nice idea.
