CBC Canceled
“When It bleeds it leads“ You can't get ahead on a bus.
I got the word today that our story would be put off for a while on the CBC. The producer called me and said “I don't know if you heard about this story put a guy got his head cut off on a Greyhound bus”. I knew right then that our story would be bumped. Well that's the way the head rolls. This set us back a bit because I was looking forward to talking to a national audience about our National Video-A-Veteran Contest”. We will get together for another shot at our story when I get to Toronto, I hope.
When I made it to the Veterans wing at the Ridge wood Hospital all the staff knew what our mission was all about. The head nurse took me to a room off to the side of the front deck to do the interviews. I interviewed three people at the residence. All three were good interviews, I was done in about an hour. I headed back to the Legion to get ready for the nights activities. I was invited to a dance as the guest of honor. We had a great time but I was sleepy and I made an early night of It.
