He looked suprised. Talking about winter, it is not surprising that John Graham, President of the Ottawa Ski Club, thought the time was right lo toss a luncheon for more Ihan 110 hardworking volunteers who help to make Camp I'ortune the great ski-area that it is. The event, catered by Jack Smith, with mounds of smoked -meal, salad and fresh rye bread, was a opportunity, for Graham, to say "thank you to the people who give so much of themselves lo Camp l-'ortune programs." Although there was nary a nip in the air. the ski enthusiasts eyed the foothiils ith a look of longing.

Among the guests were club members Pat and Heather Gillan; Michael and Kayla Bavlin; Shaver; Jack and Tennier; Fred Morris; Richard Fisher; Denis Ross; John Aline and Alice and Jane Murray. There were, as well, representatives from both the Cuban and Vietnamese embassies. Friday night Rideau Hall was transposed from its sweetly stuffy selling, which harbors mostly subdued and exclusive 'dos', into a unique and animated party welcoming more than ISO delegates of the multicultural conference being held in Ottawa. The prime minister arrived on the scene just after (i p.m. and was mobbed by enlhusiastie well-wishers.

"The last time I saw him was in 'i7," one lady beaming, "and he looks younger 1 "I just want to get a good look at him," said elbow ing her way through the crush, but nobody close to him would budge. Nevertheless, Minister of Multiculturalism Norman Cafik made a splendid effort lo get people close enough to feel the old Trudeau charisma, but he was beaten back by sheer numbers. Cafikmanaged to stay cool as a cucumber sandwich as the crowd surged through the doors to the hallway anticipating the prime minister's departure. A 1 men wunu-n rir candidatures lm IV 1 I jv mm ii David Orr and Gary Warren Vic Arduini of Kamloops, B.C. stepped forward quick as a flash and started up a conversation inapid fire Italian.

The prime minister seemed to get the gist of it and managed a quick reply. Yes, it's hard to say cheerio, but finally an earnest young man whose job it obviously was to'. steer the prime minister out was successful. "Sorry Norm I have another meeting to lo go," he told Cafik. The fans went back to the ballr where the lively-party continued.

Guitta Caiserman-Rolh's friends flocked to Wal-lack's Gallery Last Saturday for the opening of her new 'show and the gallery buzzed with the sound of lively conversation. They drove from Montreal especially lor Ihe opening and stayed on for the party given by- fellow artist Jennifer Dickson. Professor Morrie Rorhlick waxed enthusiastic about Caiserman-Rolh's skills; a arl historian, connoisseur and long lime friend of the artist. While Carmen Robinson stood eyeing a pen and ink sketch and trying to make up her mind about buying it. Dixie Lambert plunked down a cheque for it.

Connie Reisman bought two. They sold like hot cakes, but they are all still hanging at Wallacks. Diamond importer Ronald Farro and his svelte and swanky wife Rosario were guests of honor at a buffet dinner Saturday night given by Guatemalan Ambassador and Mrs. Rivera. The Riveras has just bought a Utile nest in Uock-clilfe, or rather a large, nest, and were tickled pink to have the Farros as guests for the weekend.

"I met my wife in Belgium tin- same night as 1 met the Riveras," said the very personable diamond.dealer from Toronto. Some of the r0 guests only slaved for cocktails it was one of those busy Saturday nights in the capital CAN YOU TYPE?

Pulling together the food and the table at the Japanese embassy means making a collage of tiny morsels of food and a kaleidoscope of plates for the utmost in visual delight. F.nlertaining, of course, is a essential part of the Sumas' diplomatic life, but dinner parties are occasions that the Japanese ambassador and his wile enjoy orchestrating. I.asl week we were treated to nine courses and a variety of tastes although the basic ingredient for several of the dishes was raw fish.

After dinner all 10 of us toured the enormous mansion and looked at part of the Suma art collection. Only part, because most of (he huge collection is still in Japan. "I'm working to pay the death duties." said the ambassador ith tw inkling eyes. The ambassador is a skater, at the moment he is jogging miles every day. but he wondered how far one can go in Addidas-coverod feet snow.

It was a drizzly rainy day last Thursday when Austrian Ambassador August Tarter received over 150 guests at his residence for a coupe de vhampatwe in honor of his country's national day. The receiving line moved slowly but some lucky ones were treated to champagne while wailing in lite hallway. For those of us who were not so fortunate Dr. Harold Fireman had this to say: "Maybe they handed it out lo those who looked as if they needed it most." Once inside the decibel count was high Ihrow a crowd of men together and you'll never hear a lull in Ihe conversation.

the crowd had cleared out and headed biick lo the office. hat nicer way to spend a Don't think that-squash players are only interested in swooping down on a small rubber ball and hitting it in flight. No. They also go in hir quite a bit of socialising. So says David Cobb co-owner with Garry Vlarren of Green way Glen Squash Club.

Thai's what Czechoslovak Ambassador Stafan Murin served at the coupe de champagne on the occasion of the With anniversary of the. founding of his country's federation.

It's good bubbly too. Fx- Miss World and now High Commissioner for Grenada Jennifer Hosten-Craig. made a big splash at Ihe lunchtime champagne party. Although she is awn-man who combines- beauty and brains, she doesn't seem, lo stir any jealousy among other woman. Ambassador Murin gallantly kissed her hand and he just as warmly welcomed more 111.

in L'OO guests most of whom were men. Men more receptive to birth control pill By Marlene Orion of the Canadian Press Men are beginning lo realize that il lakes two to tango in the birth control game, says an Ottawa gynecologist. It's partly because men have become willing to participate in preventing unwanted pregnancies that research for the ideal male contraceptive has surged ahead in recent years, says Dr. Norman Barwin, associate professor of gynecology and obstetrics at University of "One big problem with male contraception has been the lack of irio-tivation by men," says Dr. Barwin.

who is also on staff at the Ottawa Hospital's fertility clinic. "Anything for men up to now has been the use of the condom, which requires immediate motivation. Hul for a male to lake a pill every day, for Example, as women do, requires longer-term motivation." Because the number of men who choose vasectomies, or surgical sterilization, is increasing, men apparently have shown they are willing to take some responsibility. Dr. Barwin says.

"Development of a contraceptive for men has been very slow compared with Ihe strides achieved for women," he-wrole in a recent Canadian Medical Journal article. Bill the medical evolution of safer and potentially successful drugs for men is encouraging. Dr. Barwin said in an interview. "The major drawback to the development of a chemical contraceptive for men is Ihe fear of impotence and of genetic damage." Still some danger Karly-drugs.

As in all medication, (here is the balance between the risks and benefits, and the risks were just loo high." But scientists now are looking to hormones as a safe, effective, reversible method that will not reduce sex drive. Dr. Barwin savs. Current experiments involve the use of so-called blocking agents which suppress the pituitary gonadotropins or master hormones governing the production of sperm.

Such blocking agents include a male hormone, lesleslerone. which "has long been known lo be capable lo suppressing sperm prnduvliuujn men when given in appropriate doses." Still, he says, "concentrated efforts in this ever-expanding area of research are urgently needed lo develop an acceptable means of contraception in men." Journal Want Ads THE BEST can 563-371 1.
