Series1: Residential buildings
Series2: Public buildings
Series3: Commercial buildings
Series4: Miscellaneous

This fonds consists of scripts from Senator Heath MacQuarrie's weekly radio program, "The Week-End Review" which ran between 1952 and 1955, perhaps longer. The show was very political in nature and focused largely on world events, particularly Canadian, American, and British politics as well as the Korean and Cold Wars. Many of the scripts are dated and show corrections and additions which were probably made by Heath himself. The scripts are dated 1952 to 1955.
