The second of two programmes reporting on an adventurous scheme for dealing with America's teenage offenders. The Trail Blazers
Narrated by Michael Dean
Can Adventure Training rehabilitate young criminals? Inspired by the British ' Outward Bound ' movement, the American Vision-Quest team now confront their unruly youngsters with a series of tough challenges in the wilderness on New Mexico's Gila mountains. The Wagon Train programme has proved so successful that today, three ' trains' are on the road at the same time. Producer Bob Saunders talks to some of the youngsters who were given their ' last chance' on the Wagon Train three years ago, to find out why the scheme appears to work.

St Urbain Street and Beyond Mordecai Richler 's Montrael
' I was born in Montreal, but couldn't get out quickly enough. At the age of 19 I quit college and lit out for Europe.'
In 20 years of self-imposed exile MORDECAI RICHLER wrote about Jewish Montreal - St Urbain's Horsemen, The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz and Joshua Now and Then. Ten years ago he returned to a changed city: the Jew. ish families of St Urbain Street had resettled in more comfortable suburbs, supplanted by Greeks, Portuguese and Poles; and tension has increased between French and English-speaking Quebecers. Richler believes the struggle is unlikely to boil over, since both communities expend more emotional energies on their common support for ' the greatest hockey team in the League ', the Montreal Canadiens, than they do on their political differences.

Maestro Andres Segovia was chairman of the jury of the International Guitar Competition held in his honour last autumn in the beautiful setting of Leeds Castle in Kent. Thirty-four young guitarists from all over the world were selected to play before him.
