He was 72. “I really can’t believe he’s gone,"’ Frank Shuster, Wayne’s longtime partner and friend said. “Johnny really had a unique comedy mind,”’ said Shuster, 73. “*He had a great sense of what was funny and what wasn’t.”” Shuster described their relationship as ‘‘sort of like a marriage, without kids. Johnny was family.”” Wayne and Shuster’s career as Canada’s best-known cut-ups started with a 1930 Boy Scout/ fundraising show for which they were paid $40. The pair carried on through radio, as a touring act to entertain the troops during the Second World War and then on television. : Their skits — described as an amiable mixture of slapstick, pan- tomime, corn and twists on classic situations — didn’t always win over HEY, KIDS!

The comedy couple always resisted invitations to move to New York or Los Angeles, even after their record 67 appearances on the legendary Ed Sullivan Show. “‘Why should we leave all this to live on airplanes?’’ Wayne once said from his comfortable home in Toron- to’s Forest Hill district. In 1962, television critics in the United States and Canada selected Wayne and Shuster as the top comedy team of the year in a poll. They won the honor the next year as well, beating out Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance. “It was Wayne and Shuster who showed we could do our own comedy,” said Denis Harvey, vice- President of the CBC. ‘‘We didn’t have to go to the United States to be funny.”” Wayne and Shuster were preparing a show looking back at the first 50 years of their comic partnership at the time of Wayne's death, said Leonard Starmer, executive producer of their CBC-TV shows for 20 years. The show will be completed and aired, Starmer said. Born John Louis Weingarten on May 28, 1918, Wayne was one of seven children of a Toronto clothing manufacturer. He teamed with Shuster at Toronto’s Harbord Collegiate where they wrote, sang and acted in an annual revue. But they wéren’t class clowns, said Shuster. “Johnny was very quiet, very docile, ”* he said. They continued their partnership at the University of Toronto and developed a radio program called Wife Preservers which dispensed household hints with a humorous tone. \ * Claude Bissell, then an English lec- turer and later the university’s president, once told Wayne: ‘‘What I like about you is you don’t let studies interfere with your education.” Still, Wayne got his bachelor of arts degree. ; But the Second World War inter- fered with their careers in a way school never did. Both men enlisted in the army. But impressario Jack Arthur arranged to have them transferred to Montreal where they became headliners in the weekly Canadian Army Radio Show. Their success led to a Canadian tour and later performances in England, France, Belgium and Holland. They were the first to enter- tain troops in Normandy after the D- day invasion. “This was a toughening-up process,’’ said Wayne. ‘‘If the men could survive us, they could survive anything.” By 1947 Wayne and Shuster had a regular CBC show with a live audien- ce. Ed Gould, in his book Enter- taining Canadians, says they threatened to quit if they had to play to canned laughter.

Less than 24 hours later, he used a -357 Magnum to end his own life on a country road in rural Alberta. Buterman was a 21-year-old security guard who wanted to be a military police officer. He was en- thralled with Clint Eastwood’s Dirty Harry movies, about a Magnum- toting San Francisco cop who often takes the law into his own hands. Only a month earlier, Buterman had his name legally changed to Kirk Magnum. While some researchers maintain that prolonged exposure to violence desensitizes people, others argue that it is impossible to blame a movie or television program for violent actions in real life. Bill Buterman says in hindsight, there is ‘‘no question’? that his brother was influenced by violence in movies. “It’s difficult to deny something that apparent,’’ says Buterman, 35, as he sits in his Edmonton office, surrounded by pictures of his three children. “*No one changes his name to Kirk Magnum and goes out and gets a nickel-plated .357 Magnum.”" The National Coalition on Television Violence keeps track of research done in Canada or the United States on violence and enter- tainment. It has blasted many of this summer’s movie releases for their predominance of violence. Among these is RoboCop II, about a police officer killed in the line of duty who has been rebuilt into a com- puterized vigilante, and Die Hard II, where an off-duty cop battles inter- national terrorists in a snow-bound airport on Christmas Eve. In Die Hard II alone, there are more than 300 on-screen deaths. David Boyd, public affairs director for the coalition, says research in- dicates that the impact of watching violence occurs in the pre-teen years, but its effects are seen as the child gets older. For that reason, the group is most concerned about the summer )film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, about four pizza-eating crime fighters who live in sewers. “*It has 130 acts of violence an hour and was clearly aimed at children, and that’s clearly a more vulnerable audience,"” Boyd says from the group’s office in Champagne, Ill. A 1989 study suggests’ that television exposure is partly r¢spon- sible for half of all violent acts com- mitted in the United States and »Canada. That study, done at the Univeristy of Washington’s medical school, examined and ruled out firearm accessibility and changes in society as possible reasons for the in- crease. The study tracked homicide rates in Canada and the United States and found they doubled within 15 years of television’s introduction.

V8V Three-way trade touted TORONTO (CP) — ada must join the U.S.-Mexico trade. talks to protect its hard-won access to- the American market, says Simon Reisman. In his first public statement on the issue, Ottawa's chief negotiator of the Canada-U.S. free trade agreement suggested that Canada cannot afford to sit on the sidelines as the U.S. and Mexico begin talks on a bilateral free” trade pact. **We should be at the table not only to make sure our access to the U.S. market is not undermined by a U. Mexican agreement, but to take ad- vantage of the longer-term oppor- tunities which. an_ increasingly prosperous 80-million-consumer market has to offer,”’ Reisman, now an Ottawa trade consultant, told a Toronto audience. He said a North American trade block, with more than 350° million consumers, would be large enough to rival the 12 nations of the European Community, which are set to remove barriers to the flow of goods, services and people by the end of 1992. Last month U.S. President George Bush and President Carlos Salinas de Gortari of Mexico agreed to begin preliminary discussions on a bilateral trade agreement that Bush suggested could Canada. Hubble trouble blurry By NICOLE BAER Ottawa Citizen OTTAWA (CP) — Canadian astronomers, stunned by news of the Hubble telescope’s troubles, may have to shuffle their research plans as the U.S. space agency NASA looks for ways to fix its crippled instrument. Some projects may simply be can- But, like the images sent'to earth by the ultra-sophisticated space telescope, the picture is hazy. “Things are changing rapidly,” said James Hesser, a Canadian researcher involved with the Hubble Space Telescope project. Hesser, director of the National Research Council’s astrophysics laboratory in Victoria, said the situation ‘“‘may not be as bleak as it was originally presented. “*For our team right now, we're not quite clear where we stand."” Hesser is one of about 20 Canadians who were promised viewing time on the colossal American project. The telescope held the promise of unravelling countless secrets about the heavens. In late June, two months after its often delayed launch, Hubble was diagnosed with a severe case of blurred vision. Scientists are still scrambling to identify the problem and correct it. Computer wizards are trying to en- hance the first batch of test pictures transmitted by Hubble, to squeeze the most possible data from them. Meanwhile, expert committees are trying to decide how best to shuffle the hundreds of complex scientific projects that had been planned for the $2.5-billion U.S. mission. Cheryl Gundy, a Hubble spokesman at Baltimore’s Space Telescope Institute, said experts believe about half the current batch of Projects could go ahead. But no one will predict how successful they would be. Canadian astronomers are disap- pointed. “I felt like a child in a candy shop the last couple of years, knowing that it was finally going to be happening,”’ Hesser said. ‘‘A lot of us now are ex- tremely disappointed by the post- Ponement of a lot of very exciting science. Those instruments, two spectrographs and a photometer, measure light in the visible and ultra-violet ranges. But hardest hit. are two cameras that were to use their position 600 km above the Earth to deliver high- resolution shots of deepest space. Three teams headed by Canadians — Hesser, Anthony Moffat of the Uni ity of , and William to wait the three years NASA predicts it will take Harris of McMaster University in Ont. — were awarded time to fix the "Ss pi The trouble with Hubble stems from a calculating error introduced in the manufacture of one of the telescope’s two mirrors. The mirror’s curvature is out by a few times the breadth of a human hair, enough to blur all but the brightest items when the scope feeds images into one of five complex in- struments on the observation plat- form. Hesser said scientists are- amazed the sophisticated project was jinxed by something as low-tech as an un- focused mirror. “*It’s just incredibly frustrating that they made all these other frontier and high-tech things work, and they to pursue specific projects during Hubble’s first year. Moffat said he will have to defer his search for Wolf-Rayet stars in nearby galaxies. Such stars, found in crowded gaseous regions, are in their last phase of evolution before ex- ploding as supernovas. He’s hoping he can instead use the ultra-violet spectrograph to collect in- formation on the winds that blow from these stars. Two other Canadians have been awarded ‘‘guaranteed time’’ on Hub- ble’s facilities. John Caldwell, an astronomer at York University’s Institute for Space and Terrestrial Science in Toronto, and John F a scientist for missed out on this very thing.”” For three instruments, the impact is relatively small, forcing observers to collect data over longer periods. the National Research Council in Vic- toria, were promised about 40 hours in-return for their involvement in the project since its inception in 1977.
