Description

January 19 Toronto Robin Farr, a representative of the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Recreation's Halfback program, in which Canadian books and magazines could be purchased with credits from used Wintario Lottery tickets, sent a letter to the Body Politic confirming that the newspaper had been dropped from the program. The Body Politic had been accepted into the program on December 14, 1977, but was dropped after obscenity charges were brought against it on January 5, 1978; the newspaper appealed the decision.
