mit murder in the recent beat- nor and the public "not to hold Canadian Theater Booming By Richard L. Cne Washington Post ATIAGARA-ON-T E-LAKE, i ONTARIO. CANADA -Tins is such a lovely town that it's a pity to toll a living soul shout it. But sinco it is the home of Canada's Shaw Festival, publicity is inevitable. The Shaw Festival, in its eleventh season, is one more feather in Canada's theatrical cap.

The productions are skilled and. with the century's most, internationally popular playwright as the root of its material, can hardly go wrong. There's one main street in the town. Flowers are nurtured, trees respected, picket fences gleam with fresh paint. Apolhecary shops, taverns and n-grocers inhabit unostentatiously restored old quarters.

There's a golf and boating dub and what New England villages would call "the green" are the sprucely kept cemeteries of the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches. There may be 4.000 residents in a 10-mile area. Why, then, the Shaw Festival? Well, on the main street is a 125-year-old courthouse and in the surrounding houses are souls who have the theater hug. riiHERE ARE less than 4 an I seats in the courthouse theater, and actors must duck through an improvised alley on one side of the auditorium In get to the stage. Since there's so little crime here-a 11 1 the court hasn't needed all that, space for years and only occasionally does anyone wind up in the one-room jail on the ground floor.

The founder of the theater. Brian Doherty. is a lawyer who once wrote a highly successful play called '-Father Malachy's Miracle." Diverted by World War 11 into liaison work with the Air Force, Doherty returned to Canada and enlisted John Gielgud. Michael Redgrave. Flora Robson and Michael icliammnir for Canadian tours.

He visited for an overnight stay in 1055 and has hardly left since, using what he dubs poor health as an excuse to escape the hustle of Toronto for the pleasures of village living. Since theater everywhere requires subsidies private or governmental nature, the Shaw festival has done well enough to inspire grants from Ontario and Canadian government councils. One scheme for a ticket-selling lottery brought in and now over is pledged for the theater's total cost of three million. This time next year the company will be in a new building. The festival's artistic director.

Paxton Whitehead, first began as an actor in Canada's regional theaters. He became ar'i-'tic director of the Shaw g-oiip in 1987 and last year took on the same job with the Pacific Coast's Vancouver riyhonse. making him one of be few actors ever to head two theaters simultaneously. ACTPESS Suzanne if Grossman, he adapted i'(n 'cvriean "The f'hrinmv Circle." presented at stage Washington, two seasons ago, and "There's One in Every Marriage." which failed on Proad-wav last, season. cnampionsnip maicn wnen Fischer refused to appear, stay Fischer re used to aonear.

stav- ing in his hotel suite, because he objected to three moving picture cameras in the hall. Thus Spassky, who won the first game, was 2-0 in the 24-game series. He needs 10 more points to retain the title. A victory counts one point and a draw half a point. Fischer said that if the forfeit rolimr riivm'Kprt anrt all U'urn rrmiVnH no i would go ahead with the match.

However, an Associated Press survey of supermarket chains across the country indicated the boycott thus far is having little effect. "When we plan a boycott, we plan for a couple of years." said Marshall Ganz. director of the farm workers international boycott program. "The success of the boycott depends on reaching many, a Americans and convincing them not to eat lettuce" that doesn't bear the UFW label.

Ganz added. "Something like this is tremendously helpful." he continued, referring to Kennedy's salute. Kennedy, who introduced Senator George McGovern when he made his acceptance speech at the convention early Friday, echoed sentiments expressed by members of numerous state delegations, including California, New York, Illinois. Iowa, Tennessee, Rhode Island and Oregon. McGovern also has come out in support of the boycott.

"We're very pleased with it," said Ganz. of the delegations and many of the Democratic state conventions endorsed the boycott and urged people not to buy lettuce. "The Democratic Party is the largest political organization in the United States." he added, "and having that kind of support and the fact that it's endorsed right in the platform is very helpful. We're waiting to see what the Republicans are going to do." The boycott extends to all lettuce which does not carry the L'FW's stamp, Ganz said. About 15 per cent of the total lettuce crop in California and Arizona is harvested by growers which have contracts with the UFW.

he added. However, many other growers have contracts with the Teamsters, which has led to a jurisdictional dispute between the two unions. Ganz said the current cam-: paign is directed primarily at the general public, asking people to sign a pledge not to buy non-UFW lettuce. Each I pledge that is signed, he added, costs a grower about $15 a year in lost stiles. Robert Antic, president of Bud Antle, one of the nation's two largest growers of lettuce, said in Salinas, that the firm's field workers have been represented by the Teamsters for 11 years and a wagss and benefits "equivalent to if not greater than like benefits paid in many industrial organizations."

Mrs. Wallace Thorsness of Shenandoah, wrote a letter to the governor in March questioning the harshness of the sentence. Thorsness had been sentenced to five years in prison last December by District Court Judge Harold Martin 1 Hamburg. Ray expressed concern about the seeming severity of the sentence and asked parole officials to study the case. Jack Bedell of Spirit Lake, a parole board member, said the board met with Thorsness two ago and decided he would make a good parole risk as soon as the staff at the Iowa Men's Reformatory here all needed counseling had been completed.

Bedell said the parole vote came on recommendation of the staff that he was ready for release. "All I can say is that I am very, very happy." said Thorsness' mother in a telephone interview.

Thorarinsson said that if the match was stopped by Fischer's disqualification, the organizers would not pay the loser's share.
