Singers visit Exeter to aid African poor A new service for the blind of Canada, never available before, has just been established at The Canadian National Institute for the Blind. It is a training program in the use of the Optaccn, a recently invented instrument which transfers the printed page into raised touch type. When a small camera is tracked across the Printed line, the letters actually rise in pinpoint formations against the finger of the blind reader. The program was made possible by a grant of $15,000 from IBM Canada Ltd. The grant provided two instruments and enabled CNIB to send Bruce Gough, sighted mobility in- structor and former teacher, to a special training program at Stanford University, Palo Alto, California. There he learned how to teach the Optacon to blind persons. Rejean Proulx, a second year Western University students, was his first pupil. Rejean graduated from a 10 day course with a speed of 20 words a minute on the Optacon. "I will use the Optacon to read the print-outs and the punch cards as soon as they come out of the computer," said Rejean Proulx. "Braille and volunteer readers are wonderful assets but in a computer course like mine you really need to read the material straight off the com- puter. Without the Optacon, the University would have been reluctant to enroll me in the course." Blind all his life, Rejean Proulx hails from Hearst, Ont, Born in 1952 he attended the Ontario School for the Blind for Grades 1- 12 and took his Grade 13 in the regular high school in Hearst. The Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services provided the assessment and special training for Mr. Proulx and his own Optacon for use in the university residence.

At the request of the Canadian Association of Broadcasters, the choir made radio tapes of their Easter and Christmas music. They also had the honor to tour and perform in England as the first Canadians ever invited to take part in the American Festival held in England. The tour was so successful that they are making plans to go back again next spring, The success of the singing group is due not only to their obvious love of music but to the fantastic dedication and comradeship that exists among the members and the rapport they have with their leader. Every Monday night they come to Woodstock, some from as far away as Fort Erie, Toronto and Hamilton, for the weekly two hour rehearsal. They come from all walks of life, with musical experience that starts at next to nothing and goes up from there. Many have given up other interests to organize their lives around singing for the Choralaires. Besides the weekly rehearsals and the various concerts, each member is ex- pected to practice at home, memorizing words and learning his or her part. Some, who do not have pianos at home to practice with, tape record the rehearsals and sing "When you sing something, say something!" Dr. N.E. Burt- Gerrans, leader of the Woodstock Choralaires said earnestly. Such is the philosophy behind the popular choir and its dynamic leader. And say something, they do! Dr. Burt-Gerrans is a man of such intense enthusiasm and energy that anyone watching him lead his "family" of 50 singers is bound to get caught up in it. It's that contagious feeling, projected by every dedicated member of the mixed group that is the secret of their success. Listening to them singing, you are hit with one unmistakable fact - they are singing their hearts out and enjoying every minute of it. Exeter will have the op- portunity to hear this versatile and polished group present their variety of music on Saturday night in the United Church. Part of the proceeds from this event will go for aid in West Africa. Since the group's beginning in 1966 at the home of Dr. Burt- Gerrans in Woodstock, the Choralaires have sung to full houses in Kingston, London, Toronto, Detroit and all points in between. Their concerts have raised money for church groups, service clubs and just en- tertained. As well as producing two albums, the group has performed with the Brantford and London Symphony Orchestras, appeared along with the tape during the week. Rehearsals are even attended by people who, for one reason or another are no longer able to sing with the Choralaires. They just like to drop in and listen. Besides the 50 or so singers, there are many behind-the- scenes people. Choralaire en- thusiasts who may not sing but instead manage the business affairs, music library, public relations and look after make-up and wardrobe for the choir. And at the head of it all is Dr. Bur t-Gerrans, the man who started it all, the man who demands the best from his choir every time they open their mouths to sing. Although he had some lessons in singing and on the organ as a child, most of his vast musical knowledge comes from his mother. "It may sound like boasting but she was the most wonderful musician I've ever known," he said in a T-A interview recently. His mother also taught him that the worth of a piece of music could be judged by its message. "A piece of music lasts because it has something to say." he said. "In the Choralaires we try to express moods in the words of the songs," "The people in the audience have to be able to picture what you're singing." he continued. "You have to sell what's in the music." "If you can't get that across, you might as well forget it." he stated emphatically. To the doctor, the ultimate in choral music is performed by the Glasglow Orpheus Choir. And it is this ideal he is aiming for with the Choralaires. Despite the hard work and time involved; Dr. Burt-Gerrans arranges all the music and knows all four harmonies by heart, he still enjoys what he's doing. "If it got to the point where it was work, I'd quit," he said. It is this enjoyment which is so readily communicated to the audience through the singing of the Choralaires.
