Large segments of the audiences listening to Dixieland and blues, as well as the more jazzrock and soul, were composed of people 25 years old and younger. So, this year tea and jazz are swinging together. The tea industry of this country is sponsoring a national talent search to find and recognize young unknown musicians and singers. National winners of the talent search (two groups and a vocalist) will perform alongside established jazz greats in the 1973 Newport Jazz Festival to be held in New York in The Department of the Interiors Fish and Wildlife Service intends to move as rapidly as possible towards a conversion from lead shot to iron shot or any other suitable nontoxic ammunition to eliminate lead poisoning as a waterfowl mortality factor. The use of iron shot will be expanded to the degree permitted by available supplies of ammunition for the 1973-7- 4 hunting season. Mandatory use of the iron shot in one flyway will be the aim of the program for the 1974-7- 5 season.
