Big Sound ... Big Pictures

... and-a dispenser for Coca-Cola!

Big picture — big sound . . . and the big refreshment — Coca-Cola! The /r//>/e-feature
that means big box office and big “lobby” profits.

Movie patrons like to pause — enjoy the deeply satisfying, cold, crisp taste of Coke.
Be really refreshed — with sparkling Coca-Cola.

Install an e-catching, qu'ck, efficient dispenser for Coca-Cola in your theatre
— and start to:

• Increase patronage.

• Prosper on sales of high-profit Coke.

• Profit on sales of popcorn and candy —
“natural” high profit partners with Coke.

For further details, write: Coca-Cola Lid.,

90 Broadview Ave.,
Toronto 8, Ont.

Say "Coke” or "Coca-Cola" — both trademarks identity the
product ot Coca-Cola Ltd. — the world's best-loved sparkling
drink.

Who 's the woman front row centre?

Could be either . . . you can’t tell
for sure. But, mark this: 8 times
out of 10 it’ll be an adult between
15 and 44* . . . not a child as some
people mistakenly assume.

Two more quick facts: 83 out of
every 100 potential customers of
yours will sit in a movie seat at
least once during any given 6-month

period . . . and 100% of these the¬
atre-goers will see and hear your
full-colour theatre-screen advertis¬
ing — because there are no distrac¬
tions competing for attention.

This makes theatre screen advertis¬
ing one of the most powerful sup¬
ports your product can have — with
a cost/M that’s unbelievably low.

In every field of human endeavor,
there is only one standard of
excellence — an effort that
surpasses all previous efforts, a
goal attained that reflects
superior achievement.

This one standard; not two,
nor three — is the ambition of
Associated Screen Industries’
highly skilled creative and
technical minds. With instruments
of almost unbelievable precision
and modern scientific machines,
our experts strive to detect and
correct every flaw in your film, to
delicately balance the vital tone
and clarity of every image and
every spoken word. Without this
one desire incorporated into the
planning of any film — it remains
only half a film — incomplete.

Remember this: in striving for
perfection in your film production;
it does not end with the last
“take”. Perfection demands
completeness!

Thus, when you specify Associated
Screen Industries . . . you
then desire a standard of
excellence, a service complete.

)c pioneer of t!)e Pear:

HASKELL M. MASTERS

“^T’HIS honor and this occasion I’ll

A never forget,” Haskell M. Masters
told guests from all parts of Canada who
filled the Crystal Ballroom of the King
Edward Hotel, Toronto, on Nov. 26, 1959
to see him presented with The Pioneer of
the Year Award by L. W. Brockington,
QC, CMG, for the Canadian Picture Pio¬
neers. This presentation was followed by
one in which John J. Fitzgibbons, CBE,
placed a silver tray in Masters’ hands for
three Warner Bros, colleagues, Charles
Boasberg, Ben Kalmenson and Jack L.
Warner.

The last was the seventh CPP presenta¬
tion in the course of a busy, enjoyable
evening chaired by R. W. Bolstad, CPP
president. Five of these were ancillary
awards and one was the annual branch
award.

Brockington’s speech of presentation,
richly humorous, contributed a great deal
to the pleasure of the evening. “For a
man to have friends he must be a friend,”
he said, quoting Hesketh Amery, “and
Haskell has been a friend to us all.” Of
The Pioneer of the Year Award, symbol¬
ized by a plaque, he told Masters: “It
comes from us with gratitude for what
you have done and affection for what you
are.”

The honored one, noting the dozens of
letters, wires and phone calls of congra¬
tulations, observed that “it just isn’t pos¬
sible, if one has blood in his veins, to
just feel normal about it.” There have
been many changes in the motion picture
business — “from hand-cranked machines
to Ben-Hur” — since he got into it 43
years ago in Boston as an employee in a
theatre operated by Abe Montague, now
Columbia’s vice-president. “I have been

blessed with many friends in the industry
who made my own years pleasant and the
companies I worked for profitable.”

Bolstad, opening the evening spoke of
all those honored since the inception of
the awards as people “who have carried
their share of the responsibility of the in¬
dustry and the nation.”

The first presentation was that of the
branch award for service to the organiza¬
tion and its purposes. This was received
by David Rothstein, vice-president of the
Winnipeg branch, which covers Manitoba
and Saskatchewan, from Frank H. Fisher,
vice-president of the Canadian Picture
Pioneers.

Two ancillary awards were accepted in
person, these by Harold Pfaff from 0. R.
Hanson, and Joshua Leiberman from F.
Gordon Spencer. The first two are from
Toronto and the last two from Saint John,
NB. Owen Bird of Vancouver, who pres¬
ented Bolstad with a $2,000 cheque for the
Trust Fund in behalf of the Vancouver
branch, accepted an award for Frank Gow
of that city, Sam Swartz of Winnipeg one
for P. W. Mahon of Prince Albert, Sask.,
and Ken Leach of Calgary one for his fel¬
low-townsman, W. 0. Kelly.

All were honored for their contributions
to the growth and development of the in¬
dustry in their parts of Canada.

King Vidor, noted Hollywood director,
was a head table guest.

During the course of the evening Lionel
Lester, co-ordinator of the dinner, thanked
his committee heads, among them George
Altman, tickets and setting up of the bro¬
chure; Martin Simpson, aide to Altman;
Len Bishop, entertainment; Ralph Dale
and Archie Laurie, publicity; and Dave
Ongley, head table arrangements.

Our Business

By N. A. TAYLOR

THE YEAR IN REVIEW

TO many in our business the most
startling event of the last 12 months
was the merger of the Columbia-Para¬
mount distribution and sales facilities.
This kind of possibility was predicted here
last year. The cost of distribution in Can¬
ada is comparatively high in relation to
potential grosses and the
largest portion of reve¬
nue accrues from the
more important circuits.
It is not unlikely there¬
fore that this merger
sets a pattern for others
in the future.

For many theatres at¬
tendances were down in
1959, which follows a
trend of recent years.
The dollar loss was offset in some cases
by an increase in admission prices. Un¬
seasonable weather for a good part of the
year and excessive rain in many areas
may be partly to blame. Yet one must
consider economic conditions which have
been poorer than in previous years and
caused greater unemployment. In addition
some potential blockbusters did not find
the anticipated favor with the public.
There has been a further shrinkage in
the number of theatres, particularly in
small situations and in subsequent runs
in larger cities. Early runs continue to
become more valuable and the public
more selective.

In line with the trend in the United
States roadshow attractions on a reserved-
seat basis are growing in number. Not
all are necessarily successful and it is
only in the larger cities that such policy
finds real support.

Notwithstanding the general decline in
attendance, business in the drive-in thea¬
tres seems to hold up comparatively well.
Nevertheless, there has been very little
additional construction, principally be¬
cause most suitable locations have already
been covered. While there were a number
of additional installations of 70 mm. equip¬
ment, it is not likely that this practice
will spread much further. The cost of
importing 70 mm. prints into Canada is
so great that distributors, rather than ex¬
hibitors, are shying away from them.

Greater competition for theatres in the
more populated areas is foreshadowed by
the granting of eight second-station TV
licences by the Board of Broadcast Gov¬
ernors, all of which will be on the air in
1961. Because of the competitive factors
one may assume that there will then be
better TV shows in Canada.

Foreign films dubbed into English con¬
tinue to enjoy an increasingly larger per¬
centage of playing time in Canadian thea¬
tres. There is now less public and exhibitor
opposition and as the dubbing improves
there will be greater acceptance. At any.
rate, the public now expects to see films
produced anywhere and everywhere in the
world and does not look solely to Holly¬
wood for its screen entertainment.

Feature film production is still struggl¬
ing to establish itself on even a low pla¬
teau. While there are now ample studio
facilities, experienced crews and suitable
acting talent, it still remains for a Cana¬
dian film to achieve worldwide acceptance
or acclaim, an event which might well
start a stampede towards Canadian pro¬
duction or at least establish it as a per¬
manent business. In the final analysis, how¬
ever, a continuing and prosperous feature
film production industry must be founded
on Government subsidy in some form.

At this time it is premature to make a
positive prediction on the future of Tele¬
meter. The test in Etobicoke has proven
that the public will pay to see in the
home what piques its interest. Many im¬
portant people in our business have pre¬
dicted that some form of pay TV must
eventuate. This test seems to have proven
that success depends on programming. Un¬
doubtedly wider use of Telemeter would
enable greater flexibility and variety in at¬
tractions offered and widen the vista of
potentiality.

The Sixties promise to be most exciting
in our business. Before the end of this
decade we may expect to see changes
which will make our present-day business
unrecognizable in many ways. Mobility and
fast change are now an important factor
and those who want to survive must do
so in this kind of atmosphere. Neverthe¬
less, one bright light continues to shine-
given the right incentives, a good portion
of the public still wants to attend motion
picture theatres.

FACTS ABOUT EXHIBITION

QUEBEC is the only province in Can¬
ada where motion picture theatres are
open on Sunday. It is also the only prov¬
ince in which drive-ins are banned, as
well as the only one in which no person
may enter a licensed movie house who
is under 16. It is hoped that the first
change in government in many years may
lead to the end of the juvenile ban, which
was instituted for safety reasons only
following a tragic fire in 1927.

EFFORTS to have the amusement tax
ended or reduced are being continued by
Canada’s provincial and regional motion
picture theatres’ associations. Reduction
in civic assessments, licence fees and seat
taxes are other aims that have won occa¬
sional recognition.

RADIO and television are getting larger
shares of the theatre advertisers’ dollar.
Theatre operators have been asking news¬
papers to end the old and unfair business
of charging a much higher rate for am¬
usement advertising, a practice which be¬
gan in the days of strolling actors. On
occasion these didn’t pay their printing
and advertising bills.

DIVERSIFICATION of interests, a pol¬
icy among USA theatre operators in the
past few years, has come to Canada. The¬
atre chains are converting profitless the¬
atres into profitable bowling alleys and
building or buying into more. They are
also building motels and entering the TV-
station business.

NEW THEATRES: Since January 1,
1960 four theatres have been built in Can¬
ada, of which one, in Alta., was a drive-
in. Of the three auditorium houses, BC,
Alta, and Sask. each had one. Five stand¬
ard houses and two drive-ins are on the
planning boards. In 1959 eight theatres
opened, six of them drive-ins.

CLOSINGS: From January 1 to Septem¬
ber, 1960 62 standard houses and two
drive-ins closed. In all of 1959 71 four-wall
theatres and 11 drive-ins shuttered. From
January 1 to September, 1960 six theatres

were put out of business by fire, while in
1959 three theatres were destroyed by fire.

AVERAGE admission price in 1958 was
52c, up three cents over that of 1957.
Quebec’s 61c was the highest in Canada
and Prince Edward Island’s 40c the low¬
est. These figures do not include amuse¬
ment taxes. The per capita expenditure in
1958 was $5.21 compared with $5.46 in 1957
and $6.04 in 1956.

FILMS released for theatrical booking
in 1958 included 653 35 mm. features and
178 16 mm. features. French-language

features totalled 130 in 35 mm. and 56 in
16 mm., while 119 35 mm. ones were in
other languages. Of the short subjects 114
cartoons were in 35 mm. and 35 in 16 mm.
The total of all types of films released
theatrically in 1958 was 1,432, with 1,084
being in 35 mm. and 348 in 16 mm.

CAPACITY utilized of theatre seating
was 21 per cent in 1958, the same as for
1957 and one per cent lower than 1956.
The record figure was that of 1946 — 37.6
per cent.

PAYROLL: The collective wages and
salaries of the 6,691 men and 5,085 women
employed in theatres in 1958 (11,776 em¬
ployees compared to 12,668 in 1957 and
13,661 in 1956) was $17,110,735 against
$17,669,425 in 1957 and $17,893,731 in 1956.
Forty-nine film exchanges working from
124 offices paid 546 male employees $2,-
685,591 and 556 female workers $1,419,086.
Exchange payrolls declined in totals, the
drop from 1957 being about $230,000.

THEATRES OPERATING (35 mm.): So
many theatres are closing and reopening
in Canada that it is difficult to determine
how many are operating at a particular
time. However, Canadian Film Weekly
records show that in September, 1960 there
were 1,466 standard theatres (not includ¬
ing two with Cinerama and 10 offering
live drama) and 231 drive-ins. A year ago
CFW figures showed that 1,528 standard
houses and 234 drive-ins were doing busi¬
ness.

Boxoffice Statistics

In 1958, says the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Canadian movie exhibition
rang up a cash figure of $88,848,320, of which $7,455,242 was for provincial
amusement taxes. The non-tax total, $81,393,078, compared with $82,211,488
in 1957, is a decrease of $818,410.

In the table below none of the figures includes Itinerant Operators but
those down to 1956 do include Community Enterprises and this must be borne
in mind when comparisons are made. There were 506 of the latter in operation
in 1956 and they account for about two per cent of the receipts.

The drive-ins' share of the total take was $6,254,410, which does not
include $504,281 in amusement taxes. There were 232 drive-ins operating in
1958, three more than 1957’s 229, and they took in $529,099 more in 1958 than
in 1957. In the table below drive-in figures are included from 1946 on, that
being the year the first one opened.

Therefore, the figures for Canada's "Regular" theatres (cs defined by the
DBS) and drive-ins for receipts, admissions and amusement taxes were:

$88,848,320, 146,483,741 end $7,455,242

♦Denotes that

the DBS for

the first time in

1957

dropped Community

Enterprises, which

usually had

about 2% of the

receipts. Adding 2%, or

$1,644,228, to the

1957 receipts

for purposes of comparison would gito an

approximate total

of $83,855,716.

Similarly, in 1958 i

it would add $1,627,860 to

make the total $83,020,938.

NOTE: Just prior to our going to press the DBS

issued estimated statistics

for 1959 based on

returns from

75 per cent of regular

theatres. These would

seem to indicate

that receipts

will drop by 10.3

per

cent to $67,425,925,

admissions decrease by 12.7 per

cent to 119,064,660

and

1 amusement taxes fall

by 13.9 per cent to $5,983,442. The DBS warns, however.

that these preliminary

figures should serve only as indicators and not as

an

exact account of the

year's operations.)

NEWFOUNDLAND

A provincial entertainment tax of 5c on every
adult admission, called the Cancer Control Tax,
went into effect July I, 1953. The receipts from
this tax will be used to finance cancer research
or treatment.

Under Section 73 of the Local Government
Act, 1956, councils may impose a tax upon every
person attending a place of entertainment, but
this tax does not apply to any entertainment
where the proceeds are to be used for chari¬
table, educational or religious purposes. The
owner acts as agent of the council and is re¬
quired to collect the tax by means of tickets or
otherwise and is responsible for the payment to
the council of any money collected in respect
of the tax. The rate of Entertainment Tax may
be fixed by the council and may be varied as
between resident and non-resident performers and
as between different kinds of entertainments.

RECEIPTS

XPENDITURES on motion picture
theatre entertainment continued to
drop in 1958, the year’s total (including
taxes) falling two per cent to $88,848,000
from $90,547,000 in the preceding year and
by more than one-quarter from the 1953
alltime peak of $120,198,000. The per cap¬
ita figure dropped to $5.21 from $5.48 in
1957 and the record $8.30 in 1953.

37

The drop in expenditures was accom¬
panied by an even larger fall in the num¬
ber of paid admissions, which, at 146,-
484,000, reached the lowest level since the
1930’s. Admissions were down 6.5 per cent
from 156,701,000 in 1957 and more than
two-fifths below the 1952 record of 256,-
112,000. The next lowest attendance, which
included patrons of community enterpris¬
es, not covered since 1956, was 137,899,000
in 1939.

Number of regular motion picture the¬
atres declined in 1958 to 1,622 from 1,716
in the preceding year, receipts from ad¬
missions to $75,139,000 from $76,486,000,
amusement taxes to $6,951,000 from $7,-
815,000, and number of paid admissions to
136,335,000 from 146,756,000. Record for
admissions was 247,733,000 in 1952.

Except for 1954 when a peak of $6,317,-
000 was reached, receipts of drive-in the¬
atres at $6,254,000 in 1958 were the highest
on record. In 1957 the total was $5,725,000.
Amusement taxes were $504,000 in 1958,
$520,000 in 1957 and $722,000 in 1954. The
number of paid admissions increased to
10,149,000 in 1958 from 9,946,000 in 1957 and
compared with a peak total of 12,380,000
in 1954. Number of drive-in theatres in
1958 was 232 versus 229 in 1957.

Revenue from sources other than sales
of admission tickets to regular motion
picture theatres in 1958 amounted to $11,-
954,000 ($12,097,000 in 1957), and included
$11,121,000 from sales of candy, drinks,
cigarettes, etc. ($11,315,000), $377,000 from
the rental of concessions and vending ma¬
chines ($367,000), $76,600 from exhibiting
commercial films ($73,600), and $380,000
from other sources ($342,000). Similar re¬
ceipts for drive-in theatres in 1958 total¬
led $2,784,000 ($2,498,000 in 1957), of which
$2,640,000 was derived from sales of can¬
dy, drinks, cigarettes, etc. ($2,496,000 in
1957).

SEATING

IN 1959 Canada had 818,217 seats in its
1,524 35 mm. auditorium theatres, com¬
pared to 844,439 seats in 1,568 theatres in
1958, a decrease of 26,222 seats and 44
theatres, according to a Canadian Film
Weekly survey. Drive-ins also lost ground
in 1959, the 231 drive-ins with accommoda¬
tion for 89,132 cars showing a drop of nine
situations and 3,291 car spaces from 240
and 92,423 of 1958. To get a picture of the
effect of television on Canadian theatres
a rough comparison can be made between
1953, when TV first made itself felt in this

country, and the present by using the fig¬
ures issued on March 31, 1953 by the Can¬
adian Motion Picture Distributors Asso¬
ciation. At that date the CMPDA listed
1,924 35 mm. standard houses with 963,914
seats — greater than the Dec. 31, 1959
count by 400 theatres and 145,697 seats.

Using these figures indoor cinema seat¬
ing declined by a little over 15 per cent
in the seven years since Canada began its
own TV production, while the number of
theatres was reduced by 20 per cent. The
discrepancy in the percentages is account¬
ed for by the fact that the majority of
theatres eliminated were small ones with
only a couple of hundred seats. The larg¬
er theatres, with the greater capacity,
weren’t hit as hard. Before 1953 the aver¬
age seating capacity was figured at about
450 per theatre. Today it is about 540.

Not included in the figures above are
Canada’s legitimate houses and special
auditoriums that occasionally play films.
Of the former there were 10 with 13,592
seats, located in Toronto, Montreal, Otta¬
wa and London, and three of the latter
with 6,825 seats.

In order to get a clear view of the over¬
all effect on seating of the coming of TV
to Canada it is necessary to include drive-
in accommodation. In 1953, the CMPDA
states there were 104 drive-ins with a car
capacity of 48,337 and 1,056 walk-in seats.
For purposes of comparison, drive-in oper¬
ators and some Provincial governments
consider one car space equivalent to 2 V2
seats. Using this formula the 1953 drive-
ins had seats for 111,898. At the end of
1959 there were 231 drive-ins with 89,132
car spaces and 1,592 walk-in seats, for the
equivalent of 224,422 seats. This consti¬
tutes a gain of 112,524. When this last
figure is subtracted from the loss of seats
in auditorium theatres — 145,697 — it
makes the net loss 33,173.

Of the 1,524 hardtops with 818,217 seats
in Canada at the end of 1959, Ontario had
383 houses with 270,197 seats, Quebec 394
with 219,826, BC 125 with 76,960, Alta. 172
with 70,427, Sask. 184 with 58,919, Man.
116 with 50,335, NS 60 with 33,837, NB 53
with 24,902, Nfld. 22 with 8,501 and PEI
16 with 4,313.

Canada’s 231 drive-ins and their car
capacity of 89,312 were made up of Ont¬
ario’s 90 with 40,696 car spaces, Alta.’s 37
with 13,204, BC’s 31 with 10,073, Sask.’s
36 with 10,039, Man.’s 13 with 5,484, NB’s
13 with 5,070, NS’ eight with 3,316 and
PEI’s three with 1,250. Que. bans drive-
ins and Nfld. has none.

DISTRIBUTION

THE decline in motion picture rentals
has dictated economies of a sort that
were long predicted but were only intro¬
duced in 1960. There was a hint of this
last year, when some companies assigned
their physical distribution in Quebec to
Associated Screen Industries of Montreal.
A few gave up their 16 mm. section and
assigned their small-gauge distribution to
others.

In April, 1960, Rank Film Distributors
of Canada Ltd., the exchange wing of the
J. Arthur Rank Organization of Canada
Ltd., officially dropped out of distribution
and closed its branch offices. At that
time 20th Century-Fox Corp. Ltd. under¬
took the sale and distribution of the Rank
films.

In 1943 J. Arthur Rank established
Eagle-Lion Distributors, Limited for the
international distribution of his films. Ear¬
ly in 1945 Eagle-Lion Distributors was
opened in Canada as a separate sales
structure within Empire-Universal Films,
which was headed by Paul L. Nathanson,
who had sold Rank half of Odeon The¬
atres of Canada Ltd. in Nov. 1944. In June,

1945 Rank and Nathanson became part¬
ners in Eagle-Lion Distributors, opening
branches.

Early in 1946 Rank acquired Nathan-
son’s interest in Odeon and Eagle-Lion
Distributors. The company was renamed
the J. Arthur Rank Film Distributors
(Canada) Ltd. in April, 1951, and in
March, 1957 this was changed to Rank
Film Distributors of Canada Ltd.

On Oct. 1 Columbia Pictures of Can¬
ada, Ltd. and Paramount Film Service
Ltd. undertook the operation of a distrib¬
ution company that represents a consol¬
idation of their sales and distribution
operations under the title Affiliated Pic¬
tures Corp. Ltd.

The Columbia name came into Canada
in Nov., 1926, replacing Independent Films
Ltd., an Allen company which held the
franchise in this country. In 1954 Colum¬
bia bought 50 per cent of the Canadian
company and in 1959 acquired the rest.
Paramount opened exchanges in Canada
in 1920 as Famous-Lasky Film Service and
became Paramount Film Service not long
after.

Film Rentals

FILM rentals from all sources in Can¬
ada decreased narrowly in 1958 by
slightly more than one per cent compared
with 1957, or $407,082, the total being $33,-
746,765. In the 1958 summary the Domin¬
ion Bureau of Statistics, for the fourth
time, gave the part of the total yielded by
television, the return being $6,336,346,
which compares with $5,575,414 in 1957. An
additional statistic related to the whole
revealed that $393,966 was the amount
from the renting of films for other non¬
theatrical use.

Rental from 35 mm. theatrical films
yielded $25,310,194 or 69.5 per cent of the
overall total. In 1957 the rental amounted
to $26,379,668, making the 1958 figure a
drop of $1,069,474 in revenue. This repre¬
sents a decrease of four per cent, while
at the same time, the DBS reports, box-
office receipts declined by 1.2 per cent and
theatre admissions dropped by 6.4 per
cent.

During 1958 16 mm. films for theatrical
use drew revenue of $1,706,259, compared
with $1,805,867 the previous year. This
figure, to which is added the revenue from
16 mm. films for TV and other use, brings
the small-gauge rentals total to $8,436,571,
an increase of 8.5 per cent when com¬
pared with the 1957 figure, $7,774,159. The
gain in 16 mm. revenue due to television
helped limit the overall decline to a little
over one per cent.

During 1958 there were 49 film distrib¬
ution companies operating out of 124 ex¬
change offices, compared with the same
number of companies and 130 branches in
1957. The year 1955 saw the great spurt
in distribution of films to TV and the open¬
ing of 16 new companies. The 49 firms
employed 1,102 persons and paid out $4,-
104,677 in salaries and wages during 1958.

The following table of annual rentals, in
which each figure represents the com¬
bined 16 and 35 mm. yield from every
source, shows the progressive increase in
every year except 1955, 1956 and 1958:

(•The 1959 total is given in this table, although
the rest of this article deals with 1958. The DBS
has released that figure but as yet not those
for the elements that make it up. such as the yield
from theatres, 16 mm. exhilbition and TV.)

The figures from the years previous to
1940 include receipts from advertising and
other sources. The totals from 1946 on are
presumed to be from every type of exhi¬
bition, including receipts from rentals to
drive-ins. Canadian Film Weekly figures
show that at the end of 1958 there were
1,586 standard 35 mm. theatres and 236
drive-infc. The DBS figure for 1958 regular
(non-drive-in) theatres, 1,623, which is 93
smaller than that of the previous year, is
made up of both 35 mm. and 16 mm. situ¬
ations. The count for 1958 drive-ins is 232.

As a guide to the amount of rentals for
35 mm. only the following 16 mm. rentals
table will help:

* (Television came to Canada in September, 1952
but only accounted for a minor share of the 16
mm. rentals until 1955. For the three years marked
with an asterisk above (1952-3-4) the DBS included
the TV income in the totals but in the following
years these were given separately and amounted
to:

During 1958 1,432 new 35 mm. films were
released for theatrical use on a commer¬
cial basis, compared to 1,213 in 1957.

Not for love nor money. . .

ALWAYS shoot in color —
Eastman Color Film . . .
Spectrum of the sixties.

There are times when no re-take is possible — the once-in-a-life-
time photographic opportunities that can come up any time, any¬
where . . . and so often do! That’s why photographers appreciate
the security of Eastman Film, black-and-white or color — appre¬
ciate, too, the advice and co-operation of Kodak’s technical staff.

Revised.

Gross revenue of private production and
printing firms in 1959 was $8,704,410, an in¬
crease of $1,034,707. There were 514 films made
of five-minute length or over by private industry.
Adaptation or language versions of original films
in the 514 totalled 40 for television and 15 for
other non-theatrical use, with I I of these made
for other than Canadian sponsors. Adaptations
or language versions of five minutes and over
reported by government agencies were 20 for
theatres, 10 for television and 61 for non-theatri¬
cal use, with one of these made for other than

Canadian sponsors.

Private industry and government agencies
printed 47,978,205 feet of 16 mm. film, 307,694
more than in 1958, and 21,200,275 feet of 35
mm. film, which is 3,227,335 less. Since 35
mm. film is used in theatres the decline is a
reflection of the reduced number of features
being made. Another factor might be the closing
of theatres, making fewer prints necessary. Some
7,802,333 feet of the 16 mm. films was printed
in color. The foregoing figures were compiled
by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics.

THE increase in production and lab in¬
come is probably due to the making
of two 39-part TV series, R.C.M.P., made
by Crawley-McConnell in the Gatineau
Hills, and Hudson’s Bay, produced by a
New York group at Toronto International
Film Studios, whereas but one series,
Cannonball, had been produced the year
before.

The figures issued by the DBS for pri¬
vate production include that of seven
provincial government agencies. To ap¬
proach a figure representing the total for
production of every kind, those of the
National Film Board and the Canadian
Broadcasting Corp. would have to be
added to the $5,186,685 for the private
producers.

The private producers are examined
according to calendar year, whereas the
NFB and the CBC end their on March 31
of the next year. This leaves nine months
of parallel operation with the private
producers by these government agencies.
The 12-month fiscal year’s production of
the NFB cost $3,599,207, of which nine
months might come to about $2,700,000.
Added to the private producers’ figure it

brings the dollar volume to $7,900,000.
The CBC says it spends about $2,700,000
on outside film production. Taking nine
months of this and the fact that private
producers contest the figure, we can add
$1 ,100,000 for the CBC and the grand total
for the year would be roughly $9,000,000.

The grandest production scheme of the
year, that of Trans-Video Productions,
which was housed at the Canadian Film
Industries’ plant, came to nothing and cost
its backers about $400,000. The company
was to make National Velvet as a TV
series, turn out commercials and engage
in other production. It just didn’t get
going, though the structure was there.

In 1959 two features were produced. One,
Wings of Chance, was made in the West,
and the other, Hired Gun, in Toronto (see
Credits). In 1960 so far Arthur J. Kelly’s
Turkell Enterprises of Brantford, producer
of This Most Gallant Affair, the documen¬
tary feature of the Dieppe Raid, has
completed The Abbey On Monte Cassino.
Taylor-Roffman Productions of Toronto
will begin making a feature, The Well, in
October and another, Execution, is to fol¬
low. Both are from Canadian books.

TELEVISION

LATE in 1959 the Board of Broadcast
Governors, created in 1958 as an in¬
dependent regulatory body in TV by the
Government, began its hearings for pri¬
vate station licences. The BBG, created
in 1958 following the recommendations of
the Royal Commission headed by R. M.
Fowler of Montreal, assumed the power
formerly vested in the Canadian Broad¬
casting Corp., which was put in the same
position as the private stations it used to
regulate in relation to the BBG.

The ruling of the BBG that 55 per cent
of the content of our TV stations must be
of Canadian character was hailed gener¬
ally and pleased Canadian film producers,
who saw it as a business booster. In most
places there was vigorous bidding for the
second-station licence and the choices of
the BBG were accepted without contro¬
versy. In Toronto, however, the choice
was followed by some dissatisfaction.

The financial interest of motion picture
industry people in Canadian TV grew as
the result of the coming of private sta¬
tions. Among the film industry companies
and personalities participating financially
in the new stations are Paul Nathanson,
Nat Taylor, David Griesdorf, Joseph De-
Seve, Spence Caldwell and Art Jones.

That aspect of Canadian TV drawing
the most interest internationally is Tele¬
meter, the Paramount-Famous Players
coinbox pay-as-you-see system that was
opened in Etobicoke, a Toronto suburb,
in Feb., 1959.

Up to August, 1960, the cost of Tele¬
meter reached $1,500,000 and it had 4,400
subscribers at a $5 installation charge. As
to whether Telemeter, which offered cur¬
rent films and some sporting events, was
considered successful, was for its officers
to say. They say it will take about a year
of operation to make such a determina¬
tion. Much of TM’s technical cost is due
to its being a pilot operation.

The pay-TV controversy continued to
rage in the USA and Britain. In Britain
the J. Arthur Rank interests combined
with Rediffusion Ltd. to explore the field
and in the USA Phonevision, the Zenith
Electric Co. system, will be tried in Hart¬
ford with the permission of the Federal
Communications Commission. There is a
division of opinion among motion picture
exhibitors as to whether government res¬
traint on pay-TV should be sought. Some

associations are seeking it; others have
no official position.

This year, 1960, will see the release of
post-’48 motion pictures to TV by leading
distributors.

The objectives of the CRTPB, which has 20
sponsors, are to formulate sound engineering
principles and to organize technical facts which
will assist in the development of the Canadian
radio industry and radio services of the nation
in accordance with the public interest. The activi¬
ties of the Board are restricted to engineering
considerations and all sponsors must be non¬
profit associations, bodies or societies which have
an important interest in radio and allied fields.

One of the objectives of the Board is to advise
government, industry and the people of its find¬
ings and recommendations. In actual practice the
Board has acted in an advisory capacity to the
Canadian Government in the matter of frequency
allocations.

The organization of the Planning Board includes
the Main Board, made up of the contributing
sponsor delegates and the chairmen of the Plan¬
ning Board's six Main Committees (Standards and
Allocations Committee; Television Committee;
Broadcast Committee; Committee on Radio Com¬
munications including point to point, portable,
mobile and emergency services; Committee on
Aeronautical Radio and Radio Aids to Naviga¬
tion; and Committee on Industrial, Scientific and

Telecasting

THE Canadian Broadcasting Corp., no
longer able to call the turns in Can¬
adian TV, went through a regrouping of
departments, operating divisions and of
its executive structure. It competed suc¬
cessfully with private applicants before
the Board of Broadcast Governors for a
station.

In December, 1959, Ernest L. Bushnell,
CBC vice-president who was with the gov¬
ernment agency almost since its inception,
resigned and was successful in 1960 in his
bid for an Ottawa station licence. He was
acting president during the six-month ab¬
sence through illness of J. Alphonse Oui-
met, CBC president.

The CBC undergoes an annual examina¬
tion by the Special Committee on Broad¬
casting created by the House of Commons.

Total operating expenses of the CBC in
the 1959-60 fiscal year ended March 31 was
$90,864,218. It got $54,404,000 as a 1959-60
parliamentary grant and $38,162,337 in
commercial income, enabling it to end
the year with a $6,103,722 margin after
$3,000,000 off for depreciation.

Commercial income, which provided 42
per cent of its funds, was up again over
the previous year but Ouimet warned in
his report that this might be reversed by
the coming of competition through the new
private stations.

Production and distribution of non-com¬
mercial programs cost the CBC $48,387-

If Shopsy’s turn up at the refreshment counter at the Bolshoi Theatre
next season it's only because our diplomatic friends know a good plan
when they see one. Maybe you too would like to know about Shopsy's Plan X,
for increasing sales at your refreshments counter. For a summit
meeting with a Shopsy representative, all you have to do is call

CHerry 4-5586, Toronto. Incidentally — add this to your file on Shopsy's:
More Shopsy's are consumed in theatres throughout Ontario than all other brands.

THE PIONEER OF THE YEAR AWARD
In 1952 the CPP marked The Golden Anniversary
of the Silver Screen in Canada, dating it from the
establishment of the first successful motion picture
theatre — the Electra of John Schuberg on Cor-

144

do va Street, Vancouver, which he opened in the
Fall of 1902. At the celebration banquet, held in
the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, Schuberg, Jule
Allen of Toronto, George Ganetakos of Montreal,
A. J. Mason of Springhill, NS, L. Ernest Ouimet
of Montreal and Fred G. Spencer of Saint John,
NB were honored as pre-1910 pioneers who had
done the most to advance the motion picture as
a popular form of entertainment in its early days.
Spencer passed on shortly before the banquet and
Schuberg and Ganetakos have died since.

The next year The Pioneer of the Year Award
was inaugurated. Those who have received it to
date are — 1953: John J. Fitzgibbons, Sr., CBE;
1954: Jack Arthur, MBE; 1955: Louis Rosenfeld;

CUSTOMS, TARIFF, ETC.

16 MM. FILMS FROM USA

Exposed motion picture film is subject to a duty
of I ,/2 cents per linear foot ad valorem, which
is not to exceed 20 per cent of the invoice value,
plus a sales tax of I I per cent. The duty is to be
computed on the prevailing rate of exchange on
date of shipment. If the USA dollar is at a pre¬
mium in Canada the invoice value is increased to
compensate for the difference in exchange. If,
however, the USA dollar is at a discount in
Canada the invoice value is reduced. Here is how
the tariff is worked out on a 5,000-foot film, in¬
voiced at $400, when the Canadian dollar is at

a premium of 2 per cent:

Invoice value . $400.00

Less prevailing rate of

exchange (2%) . 8.00

392.00

Duty on 5,000 feet at M/2C a foot 75.00

(As the Duty does not exceed 20%
of the invoice value, in this case
$78.40, the $75 is taken in full.)

Amount subject to sales Tax ..... . 467.00

Sales Tax 11% . . 51.37

Amount payable (duty and sales tax) 126.37

16 MM. USA EDUCATIONAL
OR RELIGIOUS FILMS

(Covered by Tariff Item No. 696)

Free of duty and sales tax, provided a certifi¬
cate is attached at time of clearing and signed
by user. Information as to the type of declara¬
tion required may be obtained from the Customs
Department.

16 MM. FILMS FROM GREAT BRITAIN

Exposed motion picture film is free of duty but
subject to a sales tax of eleven per cent on the
invoice value.

16 MM. EDUCATIONAL OR RELIGIOUS
FILMS FROM GREAT BRITAIN

(Covered by Tariff Item 696)

Free of duty and sales tax, provided a certifi¬
cate is attached at time of clearing and signed
by user. Information as to the type of declara¬
tion required may be obtained from the Customs
Department.

35 MM. FILMS FROM USA

Exposed motion picture film has a minimum
value of eight cents per foot for duty purposes.
(An appraisal valuation of eight cents a foot is set
by the Government, but if the invoice value is
higher then the greater figure is used.) The duty
Is one and one-half cents per foot and this is
added to the appraisal value. A sales tax of eleven
per cent is worked out against the total. The
figures are the same for color or black-and-white.
The appraisal value takes care of the fluctuation
in exchange. Here is how the tariff is worked out:

1,000 feet at minimum value of 8c per

foot . $80.00

Duty of M/2C per foot ........ 15.00

Amount dutiable 95.00

Sales tax 11% on $95 . 10.45

Amount payable (duty and sales tax) 25.45

35 MM. USA EDUCATIONAL
OR RELIGIOUS FILMS

(Covered by Tariff Item 696A)

Free of duty and sales tax, provided that a
certificate from the Office of Educational Ex¬
change, Washington, is submitted to and approved
by the Deputy Minister of Customs, Ottawa.

35 MM. FILMS FROM GREAT BRITAIN

Exposed motion picture film is subject to the
same duty and sales tax as USA shipments.

35 MM. EDUCATIONAL OR RELIGIOUS
FILMS FROM GREAT BRITAIN
(Covered by Tariff Item 696A)

Free of duty and sales tax provided that a
certificate from the Ministry of Education, Lon¬
don, is submitted to and approved by the Deputy
Minister of Customs, Ottawa.

OTHER ITEMS

"Cinematograph and motion picture cameras for
use by professional motion picture producers hav¬
ing studios in Canada equipped for motion picture
production" and "parts for the foregoing" are free
of duty under the British Preferential and Most
Favored Nation Tariffs and 15% under the General
Tariff; on and after July I, 1961 the Most Favored
Nation rate will be 9%.

Item 915 "Cellulose nitrate cinematograph and
moving picture films, negatives, n.o.p.," sets the
rate under British Preferential and Most Favoured
Nation tariffs at ten per cent, with no discount
when duty is less than 15 per cent.

Item 658, which was free under British Preferen¬
tial tariff, Most Favoured Nation tariff and three
cents per foot under General tariff, is listed at
the same rates. Item 658 reads:

"Motion picture film, of 16 millimetre width
and over, when imported by recognized proces¬
sors of motion picture film having duly equipped
laboratories for processing motion picture film in
Canada, for the sole purpose of having reproduc¬
tions made therefrom, and provided that the
original is re-exported within six months from the
date of importation, under such regulations as
the Minister may prescribe."

Item 696 affords duty-free entry to a very
broad range of articles and equipment imported

147

into Canada for the use and by order of any
society or institution incorporated or established
solely for religious, philosophical, educational,
scientific or literary purposes, or for the encour¬
agement of the fine arts, or for the use and by
order of any public hospital, college, academy,
school or seminary of learning in Canada, and
not for sale or rental. The articles referred to
above include sound and silent films, separate
sound film tracks, positive and negative slides
and filmstrips. The relation of this tariff item to
certain articles of equipment is noted further on.

Unexposed sensitized negative film of standard
commercial width, viz., 35 mm., is rated for duty
under Item 187b at 10 per cent ad valorem,
Most Favoured Nation tariff. Unexposed sensitized
negative film of lesser width, e.g., 8 mm. or 16
mm., is classified for duty purposes under Item
187 at 20 per cent ad valorem under the afore¬
said Tariff and is admitted free under British
Preferential tariff.

Exposed 35 mm. films pay a duty of 1.5 Cana¬
dian cents per foot. This tariff also applies to
British films. As mentioned above, films for the
use and by order of institutions or societies quali¬
fied for the entry benefits are exempt from duty.

Film cameras, for use with films of 8 mm., 16
mm. or 35 mm. silent type, are considered to be
admissible free of duty under the provision in
Item 696 relating to "mechanical equipment of a
class or kind not made in Canada," when for the
use and by order of institutions or societies quali¬
fied for the entry benefits of this Item and not
for sale or rental.

Sound projectors for 16 mm. films are held to
be articles of a class or kind not made in Canada

PROVINCIAL

THE most comprehensive survey of
the motion picture in action ever
made and recorded is that which Was
issued by UNESCO in 1950, “Press/ Film/1
Radio,” which is one of the “Reports On
the Facilities of Mass Communications”
embracing the world. Pages 292 to 305
are devoted to Canada, a flattering
amount of space indicative of its high
standing in the film world.

One of the most interesting sections of
Unesco’s Canadian survey was called
“Legislation,” which contained informa¬
tion surprising in its nature and quantity.

It is reprinted here with revisions to
bring it up to date.

Apart from the National Film Act governing the
operation of the National Film Board of Canada,
which will be dealt with later on, no special
film legislation has been issued by the Canadian
Government, this being the domain of the pro¬
vincial governments. Each of these has enacted
such legislation, mainly dealing with licensing and
censorship as follows:

British Columbia: Moving Pictures Act 1924 as
amended by the Moving Pictures Act Amend¬
ment Act 1948 and the Regulations under it
(Regulations respecting Moving Picture Films
and Film Exchanges, lastly amended by Order
in Council No. 272 of 16 February 1950). The
censor board, which has an "Adult Entertain¬
ment" classification, recently introduced "Re¬
stricted," which bans all under 18 from films

and are therefore admissible under Item 696,
when for the use and by order of institutions quali¬
fied for the entry privileges of this Item and not
for sale or rental.

Sound projectors for 16 mm. films, designed for
portable use and having incandescent lamp light
source, have been ruled as made in Canada and
are not entitled to entry under Item 696.

Slide or filmstrip still-picture projectors, when
valued at not less than $25 each retail in Canada,
may be admitted free of duty under Item 696,
when for the use and by order of institutions
qualifed for the entry privileges of this Item and
not for sale or rental.

Articles entitled to entry under Tariff Item 696
are exempt from the consumption or sales tax;
otherwise this impost of eleven per cent levied on
the duty-paid value is applicable.

INCOME TAX INFORMATION

No changes were made in the Canada-United
States Reciprocal Tax Convention during the past
year, according to the Department of National
Revenue. The effect of the Convention, as stated
by the Legal Branch at the Taxation Division, is:

"Under the Treaty Agreement between the
United States and Canada, a credit for income
tax deducted at source by one country will be
allowed on the return filed by a taxpayer of the
other country. Canadians earning income in the
United States may claim credits in their Cana¬
dian returns for income tax withheld at a United
States source, and Americans earning income in
Canada may claim credit4 in their American re¬
turns for income tax withheld at a Canadian
source.

first passed in 1911. Under the new act the
minimum age under which children may attend
movies unaccompanied is lowered from 16 to 14.
The term "theatre" is redefined to apply only
to those showing 35 mm. films. The exhibition
of 16 mm. films in halls becomes the respon¬
sibility of local officials. The previous men-per-
booth law is withdrawn. Films classified as
"Adult Entertainment" must be so advertised
in the papers and identified outside the theatre.
Under the category called "Restricted" certain
films are allowed exhibition for patrons over 18,
each engagement requiring approval.

Prince Edward Island: There is no Board of Cen¬
sors. Pictures shown must be approved by the
New Brunswick Board of Censors.

Quebec: Act respecting Exhibitions of Moving Pic¬
tures 1925 and the regulations under it (Regula¬
tions respecting the censorship of films, lastly
revised by Order in Council No. 342 of 31
March 1949).

Saskatchewan: The Theatres and Cinematographs
Act 1940 and the Regulations under the Theatres

148

and Cinematographs Act, lastly amended by

Order in Council No. 48 of 1948.

Finally, in the North West Territories which do
not constitute a province, there is the Ordinance
respecting Motion Pictures, lastly amended on 17
March 1948, dealing mainly with theatre licensing
and safety conditions. As there are only four
licensed cinemas in the North West Territories
which obtain films through provincial distribution,
and as such films have been censored by the
provincial authorities, it has not been considered
necessary to carry out further censorship.

In Newfoundland, there is an "Act regarding
the Censoring of Moving Pictures," but no regu¬
lations have been laid down thereunder. At one
time a Board of Censorship existed but it was
dissolved some years ago.

All provincial acts contain regulations concern¬
ing the licensing of cinemas with h view to public
safety and compliance with censorship rules. Gen¬
erally the licensing includes permanent cinemas
as well as mobile cinemas and drive-in theatres
both for 35mm and 16mm. In the Province of
Quebec, film performances in the open air, and
consequently drive-in theatres, are prohibited.

Most of the provinces require by law that pro¬
jectionists must pass an examination and obtain
a certificate.

Film exchanges (distributing companies and their
local agents) must also be licensed, generally to
ensure the safe storage of films. In different prov¬
inces, such as the provinces of Alberta, Nova
Scotia and Ontario, the law contains a clause
according to which the authority in charge may
prescribe the terms and conditions under which
films may be sold, leased or exchanged.

In addition the Lieutenant-Governor in Council
of the province of Ontario may require that a
proportion of the films available for distribution

* Mezzo Plate made directly from unretouched photo

to exhibitors and the films exhibited in each
theatre be of British manufacture and origin, and
he may fix such proportions on a monthly or
yearly basis.

The Nova Scotia Theatres, Cinematographs and
Amusement Act lays down that no cinema may
be deprived of the number of films necessary
for its operation and also that no cinema may
contract for more films than are reasonably
required.

A special rule of the British Columbia Moving
Pictures Act provides for the establishment of
a B r;+i s h Columbia Patriotic and Educational Pic¬
ture Service under the Department of the Attorney-
General. The task of this service is to produce
and acquire films and slides of a patriotic, edu¬
cational or entertaining nature (especially con¬
cerning the Province or the Dominion) and to
furnish them without charge for public exhibition
in the cinemas. The Director of the Service may
issue directions to the cinemas as to the times and
manner of the exhibition of the films and slides.

Finally different provincial acts deal with enter¬
tainment taxes and all of them contain
censorship rules. The general pattern is that cen¬
sorship is exercised in each province by a Censor¬
ship Board and appeals against the decisions of
these Boards can be made to the provincial
Appeals Boards. Furthermore, films are usually
censored under two categories: Adult and Suit¬
able for Family Entertainment (or General). The
age under which children may not visit cinemas
unless films especially approved for them are
shown, varies from 14 to 16 years. However, in
the Province of Quebec children under 16 are not
admitted at all.

(For censorship fees and exchange licences see
Censorship section.)

ADVERTISING RULES

Regulations for the use of Academy Award
symbols and references to the Oscar-winning plays
and players for advertising and exploitation pur¬
poses are:

No film or achievement which has not won an
Academy Award may be advertised or exploited
in a manner which will mislead the public and
imply by design, layout or wording of copy, that
the film or achievement has won the Academy
Award.

Pictures nominated for specific Awards may be
so advertised providing: that no reproduction of
an Awards symbol is used; that the word "nomi¬
nations" or the words "nominated for" appear in
the same size, style and color of type as the
words "Academy Award"; that the achievement
for which the nomination has been voted is in¬
cluded in the advertising.

Honorary Awards which are conferred only by
vote of the Academy Board of Governors must
be clearly defined in all advertising as Honorary
Awards and must specify the accomplishments for
which the recognition was accorded. Honorary
Awards shall not be so advertised or exploited
that the public will confuse an Honorary Award
with an Award voted by the Academy member¬
ship.

When an Honorary Award has been conferred
for a technique or for a series of motion pictures,
the Award symbol granted for that Honorary
Award may be used in advertising such technique
or series providing: that the year and accomplish¬
ment for which the Honorary Award was given is
included in the advertising; that only the symbol
presented for the technique or series is used, and
not the statuette unless the statuette was the
symbol so presented.

Academy Award symbols (statuette or plaque)
may be used without special written permission
only (a) To advertise the specific achievement
for which the Award was given; (b) To refer to
the presentation of the annual Academy Awards
as an event; and (c) In connection with stories
and articles referring to the Academy as an
organization. Permission to use the Academy
Award symbols for any other purposes whatsoever
must be obtained in writing from the Academy.

CAPAC is an association of composers, authors and
music publishers which was organized in 1925 to collect fees
for public performances of copyright music. Like all similar
organizations in other countries, CAPAC can make no profits
for itself, pays no dividends and charges its members no
agency commission, no entrance fees or subscriptions. All
fees collected are distributed among the composers, authors
and publishers concerned, in proportion to the relative use of
their music. No expenses are deducted from the fees beyond
the bare cost of administration, which is less than fifteen
percent of the gross amount collected.

CAPAC is necessary not only to composers, authors
and publishers, but also to those concerned with the public
performance of music. In the report of the 1935 Copyright
Commission this was officially recognized: —

“It (CAPAC) is a central bureau ... for the convenience
of the copyright owners . . . and the music users . . . such
bureau is necessary to protect the performing rights of au¬
thors, composers and publishers, and is also a convenience
to the users of music . . .”

Most of the music in motion picture films is within the
administration of CAPAC and before such music may be law¬
fully performed in theatres the CAPAC license must be ob¬
tained. The rental of a film does not give exhibitors the right
to perform CAPAC copyright music in their theatres.

The annual license fees CAPAC may lawfully collect, on
behalf of the composers, authors and publishers it represents,
are approved each year by a Government Board and are pub¬
lished in the “Canada Gazette”.

CENSORSHIP

NINE of the 10 Canadian provinces
have film censorship boards, the ex¬
ception being Newfoundland. Censorship
was outlawed across the border by the
United States Supreme Court as a viola¬
tion of the freedom of the press guaran¬
teed by the Constitution. Efforts by states
and cities to reintroduce film censorship
have been declared illegal in several re¬
cent court cases.

In the recent past film censorship in
Canada has come to the attention of the
general public through controversies over
Room at the Top, Elmer Gantry and other
pictures. The freedom that came to USA
producers with the end of censorship has
brought broader treatment of sex and
other matters.

Film censorship in Canada is considered
a provincial matter, whereas television is
a federal one. Thus films censored to keep
the young from seeing what censors con¬
sider questionable content enter the home
freely. And not only during the time the¬
atres are open but at other hours and on
Sunday, when they are closed in every
province but Quebec. Thus film censor¬
ship is carried on in a climate of ab¬
surdity.

Perhaps the provincial governments
don’t like to give up film censorship be¬
cause of the censorship fees, which run
into many thousands annually. The Cana¬
dian Motion Picture Distributors Associa¬
tion has asked for reductions in these fees
for years with little success.

16 MILLIMETRE

A CONTINUING decrease in 16 mm.

theatrical income is indicated by
a marked decline in the number of the¬
atres which operated in 1958. A picture of
any aspect of 16 mm. theatrical operation
other than total rentals earned is no long¬
er available from the Dominion Bureau of
Statistics, which stopped gathering infor¬
mation on Itinerant Operators and Com¬
munity Enterprises in 1957. Requests for
figures were so consistently ignored that
the DBS called a halt.

In 1956, the DBS showed that there were
488 16 mm. exhibitors who took in $1,588,-
587 from 4,286,768 admissions and paid out
$2,205,101 in rentals. Comparisons with
earlier statistics can be found in previous
Year Books.

The number of small-gauge theatres
which operated in 1958 is 110, of which
five were drive-ins. This is 38 fewer than
in 1957, when there were also five drive-
ins. Some 16 mm. distributors expressed
doubt that the figure had fallen that low.
In any case, there was even fewer in 1959
but DBS figures are not available yet. In
1956 there were 206 theatres.

The leader in the 16 mm. theatre field
in 1958 was Newfoundland, with 36, an in¬
crease of three — which is no doubt why
one company, 20th Century-Fox, opened a
branch in the capital, St. John’s. There is
one theatre in Labrador. The other com¬
panies service these from their Maritime
headquarters in St. John, NB. Ontario had
19 theatres, Sask. 16, Quebec, Alberta and
Manitoba 8 each, and BC 6. BC’s theatres
included two drive-ins and Alberta’s one,
while NS had two drive-ins but no stand¬
ard situations.

Besides Community Theatres, which are
operated by local bodies presumably as
non-profit enterprises, and Itinerant Oper¬
ators, 16 mm. distributors also get in¬
come from institutions.

Income from theatrical use of 16 mm.
in 1958 was $1,706,259, a drop of $99,608
from 1957’s $1,805,867 and it is estimated
that it will not be much lower in 1959,
even though there are fewer outlets. High¬
er prices are a factor in keeping rentals
in a profitable area.

Distribution of 16 mm. is a changing
picture. Allied Artists and International
Film Distributors dropped their small-
gauge departments in favor of represen¬

tation by 20th-Fox, which created its own
department several years ago. Columbia
has also resumed distribution of its 16
mm. product.

In the following 10-year table of 16 mm.
rentals, returns from TV are separated
from 1955 on, as explained below, and the
first rentals figures are the totals, in each
case, of the combined theatrical and non¬
theatrical yield. This last-named is the
revenue from rentals to the Red Cross, the
armed services, institutions, home users,
etc., where no admissions are charged,
and in 1957 this totalled $392,878 and in
1958 $393,966.

* (Television came to Canada in September, 1952
but only accounted for a minor share of the 16
mm. rentals until 1955. For the three years marked
with an asterisk above (1952-3-4) the DBS included
the TV income in the totals but in the following
years these were given separately and amounted
to:

TELEVISION RENTALS

1955 . . . . . . $3,072,992

1956 . 4,550,178

1957 5,575,414

1958 . 6,336,346)

(This report is drawn from the official
DBS report for 1958, the 1959 report not
having been issued yet. But an August,
1960 figure shows that 16 mm. situations
increased by four, and that drive-ins had
remained at six.)

16 Mm. Theatres

(In 1957 the Dominion Bureau of Statistics stopped gathering information about
Community Enterprises and 16 mm. places of exhibition serviced by Itinerant Operators
because of truancy and lateness by exhibitors in providing information. Community
Enterprises are those operated by local non-profit organizations and Itinerant Operators
are purely commercial exhibitors who move from location to location during the week.
In September, 1957, there were 77 Community Enterprises and 123 Itinerant Operators.
The DBS now limits itself to gathering information about 16 mm. theatres. A 16 mm.
theatre to the DBS is a place of exhibition outside those defined above.)
