THCATRE MVSIC FILM • BY D. COHN
• Ephrairh Kishon, Israel's leading humorist,, has written eight major plays, a successful film, fifteen books and thoysands of newspaper columns; all at the age of 40. However, he does not consider hunself "a terribly talented person".
The Hungarian Israeli author has one of his works, Sallah, playing now on Broadway.
"I'm stubborn, that's all," says the boyish — looking Kishon. "I'm cursed with heing an ardent perfectionist, and I keep rewriting and rewriting until it comes out somehow. But .1 can't say that I'm very satisfied with most of what I've done."
Kishon's dissatisfaction could stem from his perfectionism or, as a Hungarian wit noted, "a Hungarian is never happy unless he's miserable."
Mr. Kishon's latest play is a satire on modern art, Pull Out The Plug, the Water is Boiling. It revplves

. Regarding the jilay, the playwright points out that he is not opposed to all modern art, only against certain flagrant abuses. And he objects to those who help such "junk" gain acceptance as art and to the gullibility of thfe public.
"Every crazy man has the right to do what he wants, but when the director of a national museum accepts such work as art, this makes me mad,"" he told the Jerusalem Post reporter.
' Mr. Kishon speaks of sculpture with authority. He is a graduate of the High School of Plastic Arts in Budapest, holds two dip-
lomas in metal sculpture, one of them certifying him a master craftsman. Before he migrated to Israel in 1950, be worked for a time as a metal sculptor in Budapest; he still dbes much work at home as a hobby.
# It wasn't easy for Zero iviostel, lately of. Fiddler on the Roof, to be talked into doing a TV variety show. Ho^wever, being co-starred with Carol Buijiett did the trick.

The Canada Pension Plan
Here is what
the Canada Pension Plan
will do for people like Esther Meyer,
a 50-year-old owner of a small store
who makes $5,800 a year.
If Esther continues to earn this amouht frort) her business until age 65, she a-nd her husband, who is disabled and cannot work, can look forward to a retirement : income of S104.17 from the Plan and $75 from Old Age Security— a total of $179.17 a month. When her husband receives Old Age Security, their income will be $254.17 a month.
Should Esther die anytime after 1967, having contributed until her death, her husband will receive a disabled widower's pension of S64.06 a month until he reaches age 65. At that time, or if he is already 65 when Esther dies, his pension under the Plan will be $62.50 a month plus $75 a month Old Age Security. On the death of his wife, Mr. Meyer will also be entitled to a lumpsum payment of $500.
AH benefits under the Plan will maintain their yalue. The actual benefits payable will probably.be higher than those
given here since.benefits will ^ be adjusted to meet changes in living costs and in wage levels before they are paid and changes in living-costs after they become payable.
What will the Plan cost you?
If, like Esther, you have self-employed earnings of $5,800 a year, you will pay $158.40 a year which is 3.6% of $4,400, the maximum amount upon which ' contributions arc payable. Payment will be in instalments in the same way yoii pay your incorne tax.
This advertisement is one of a scries which relates some of the important benefits of tha Canada Pension Plan to individual circumstances.
Issued by f authority of the Minister of National Health and Welfare, Canada,
The Honourable Judy LaMarsb.
