The prizewinners of this year's international film animation contest for young people. The theme of the contest was the Human Habitat, and the winning films from Hungary, France and Britain show in a variety of ways something of the problems of the world today - overcrowding, pollution and routine, while some even attempt to find a solution.

The Annual International Festival Every summer, musicians and fans from all over the world converge on the lakeside town of Montreux for the International Music Festival, one of the biggest events in the jazz calendar. This year, in celebration of its tenth anniversary, it was bigger than ever.
For the first time, the word 'jazz' was left out of the title to take into account other kindred styles of music: folk, gospel, blues and soul, which were included in the 15 days.
Highlights of the festival include performances by Sarah Vaughan, Newport All Stars, Jimmy Witherspoon, Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, Shakti, Stan Getz Quartet, Odetta, Weather Report, Clarke Terry and the New Hampshire Big Band and the Swinging Sextet
There to describe the scene and to talk to some of the artists was the distinguished British trumpet player, Humphrey Lyttelton.
