So.in . Eleven-year-old�Gwill sing in several countries Area lad picked to represent Canada If you were an 11 year-old choir boy and the only Cana- dian choir. boy to make a 16 -day concert and study tour of parts of Europe as a member of a. special 12 -member ensemble of the Americas Boychoir, what would your thoughts be at this time - just five weeks before the tour begins? Jamie Westman, son of Mr.' and Mrs. Eldon Westman of RR 1 St. Marys, was chosen recently to represent Canada as a member of the 12 -member group that will sing in France, Belgium, Ger- many and The Netherlands from March 31 to April 16. The remaining 11 choir boys have been garnered from the U.S.A. and Mexico and along with Jamie, were chosen from hundreds of boys who 'applied through their respec- tive choirmasters. Jamie has in recent years been involved with music in varying aspects but more ex- pressly is a meznber of the St. Mary 'sChildrens'Ghoir under the direction of Eileen_ Baldwin. He has pursued violin and piano studies also. Jamie was discovered on a Hamilton television program by Mildred Duncan of Lon- don, who suggested to the boy's parents that he study voice under the tutelage of a specialist. With this thought in mind, Jamie was taken to' the Western Ontario Conser- vatory of Music of U.W.O., London, to undergo a musical andvocalappraisalby faculty member John F. M. Wood. The boy now travels to Lon- don three times weekly for voice lessons and choir rehearsals as a membrr of Mr. Wood's award-winning boys' choir at St. Michael's Church. It has all paid off when Mr. Wood states that "I really feel that Jamie has to be one of the few fine - boy trebles in Canada." He adds, not only does the young chap have a fine voice, but he has a rather "'uncanny mature musical awareness"we see much too rarely in child performers." In a receht music competi- tion, for example, where Jamie captured two first place awards, the adjudicator in- his summary remarked that it would be presump- tuous for him to criticize such a unique performance. He added? "You sing beyond your years!" One highlight of this tour will be the boys' participation as guest -artists -in residence with the Paris Boys' Choir in France. At that time, the 12 boys will be guests. in the homes of the choir boys of the Paris Choir and will attend GETS GOLD HONOUR AWARD Worshipful Brother Leonard Wilson of Lebanon. Forest Lodge 133, Exeter recently received the Gold Honour award from the York Rite Sovereign College of North America. The Gold Honour award is given only to a Mason who has given long and outstanding service to his lodge, church and com- munity. From the left are Exeter Grand Nobel Bert Kristoferson.

T -A photo Mother told that son faces jail next time The mother of an 18 -year-old Exeter man was advised that one more convic- tion could lead to a jail term for the son she appeared for in Exeter court, Tuesday. Thomas P. Ducharme was charged with having liquor while under the legal age after his vehicle had been stopped by police in Hay Township on January 3. Over the past two years, Ducharme has been con- victed on 11 liquor infractions. Justice of the Peace Douglas Wedlake said the man would probably have received a jail sentence if he appeared with that record in andther court, and advised that a further conviction could lead to that result. Ducharme's mother ap- peared on his behalf to enter a guilty plea as he was working. Mr. Wedlake imposed a line of $200 and granted the accus- ed 30 days in which to. pay. Three drivers who were charged with driving while their licences were under suspension, each received a stiff fine and had his licence suspended for a further six months. Kelvin Edward Masnica, Alonquin Drive, Huron Park, was charged on December 29 after being stopped by police in Stephen Township. He had no previous record and was fined $250 and given 30 days in which to pay. A fine of $500 was levied against Norman F. Peters, Hensall, who was charged on January 11 while driving in Hensall. Ile had been previously convicted of Off same offence. He was given 60 days in which to pay .the fine. • The third driver was Terry William Sicurella, London, who was charged with driving while under suspension on December 30 in Stephen Township, after being stopped by police for speeding. He was fined $300 and given 30 days in'which to pay. 'rhe only dther conviction registererd in Tuesday's court session was against Stephen plans to .reconstruct road Stephen township road superintendent Eric Fink - beiner has been instructed to call tenders for reconstruc- tion of Concession road 2-3 for two miles and a half north of the Crediton road. Fill for road widening in- cluded in the reconstruction work will he obtained from digging for the lines to pro- vide water for the villages of Crediton and Centralia from the present Mains at Khiva.. Due to the extremely warm weather. digging for the water system began Monday morning, much ahead of schedule. The contract is be- ing undertaken by Omega Contractors of I .ondtm. ('ouncil has authorized monthly progress payments to the water system contractor. The reeve and clerk have -been_ authorized to sign an agreement with Canadian Na- tional Railways concerning boring under the railway tracks in Centralia for in- stallation of the water system. Fees for the Mahoney and Anderson road schools at the University of Guelph were paid. Attending this year will be road superintendent Eric Fink-beiner and road depart- ment employee Peter Wuerth. The budget for 1983 for the Exeter fire area hoard was accepted by council. A resolution from the town of ('Linton was supported. It calls for amendments to the provincial assessment act 'which would allow municipalities to have input into appeals at court of revision. Tax arrears for 1982 in the trrnount of $90,964.64 have been forwarded to the Huron County office in Goderich for 'collection. The amount is slightly less than of those in 1981. Councillor on ,the mend Exeter council's Monday night session included a medical update on ('ouncillor. Tom Humphreys. Ile had a heart bypass operation last week, and while it resulted in a quadru- ply bypass rather than' the double one tie had expected, Humphreys was reported to he feeling well with only a slight amount of pain. The report was brought by Councillor Bill Rose who had. taken his wife to the same London hospital Monday afternoon and had then visited Humphreys. "He looked bright and cheery," Rose indicated, ad- ding that the local man ex- pected to be- home from hospital in about one week. Robert Jack Forrester, HR 2 Dashwood, who pleaded guil- ty to using '1))hent5e plates which had beeWregistered to another vehicle other than the one he • was driving on February 10. Ile was fined $63 and given 60 days in which to pay. Mr. Wedlake disqualified himself from hearing a charge against Jeffrey 'I'. Baines, 505 Jarivs St., Lon- don, who was charged with mpking an unsafe lane change in Exeter on January 15. 'fhe Justice of the Peace was a witness to the incident and agreed with the defence that this could affect the case. The trial was set over to Goderich for March 10. school with them. The ensem- bleis also apparently to sing in Notre Dame Cathedral as well as other churches and Cathedrals in the other three countries they will visit lin- Jamie Westman eluding the famous Cologne Cathedral. In Belgium, the boys will be .the' guests of the, world- famous "Hit Parade Des En- fants" who perform regular- ly on TV. The host choir in Germany will 'be the "Ehrenfelder Kinderchor", a choir 'of girls a boys. It will not be singing on the tour, though, because the boys will be expelled to learn various historical and geographical data so that they can give dissertations to various civic -minded groups and organizations after they have returned home. As the departure date nears, Jamie will be groom- ed by Mr. Wood in all aspects of concertising and general deportment, so .that his task as an ambassador for Canada will be one of ease but one of a challenging dospostion to allow Jamie to give of his talent whilst on tour. In return, Jamie will ' gain musical worth, develop 'sell -- confidence and personal satisfaction - for a job well-done. • Jamie's teacher now points to Jamie in his choir rehear- sals as he says to his own choir boys "now youcansee what 'sluggingly hard work' can do for you. "This tour is only -one aspect of what can happen to young choir boys such as Jamie with fine direc.- lien, talent and plain hard work:" . Authority office Continued from front page and playground. Of those, ice sports, was cited as one of the major deficit areas. In that category, Exeter has only 59 percent of the par- ticipation while Usborne has 16, Stephen 10 and Hay six. The breakdown fo: the -other categories is as follows: outdoor sports - Exeter 64 per- cent, Usborne 10, Stephen 14 and Hay seven: programs - Exeter 60'percent, Usborne 16; Stephen 11 and Hay eight: pool- - Exeter 69 perent, Usborne eight, Stephen six and flay eight; playground - Exeter 93 percent. Usborne nil, Stephen three and Ilay. four. The actual financial con- tributions last year were: Ex- eter $78,000, Usborne $6,000, Stephen $1,200 and Hay $440. Shaw said the report would be "very helpful" to Exeter in negotiating with the townships, while Miss Far- quhar noted that a commit- ment of a lump sum of money from the townships seems to be the hest method of collec- ting funds. "User fees tend to create animosity when collec- ting fees and also creates - more administration for recreation centle staff," she concluded. • The user report, although tabulated into five major categories. shows the actual participation in 33 programs operated through the recrea- tion centre board of management. While the report was re quested primarily to analyze the participation of the con- tributing municipalities. Miss Farquhar said it would be beneficial for other purposes as well and would be updated WANTED Lawnmowers, tractors, chainsaws Beat the rush by 6 weeks before the grass beats you We repair All Makes & Models Pickup and Delivery Service Available Call: MIDDLESEX LAWN it GARDEN 163 Mein SI.

The two recreation officials also tabled their year-end j; report withfcouncil, indicating a number of new programs offered,in 1982, as well as im- proved communication with existing recreation groups. "Our .association with the groups has been good fur the most part and I feel the com- munity is starling to regain its faith and credibility in the recreation department due to the public relations work done by the staff," the report stated. "Probably the most dil- ficult task facing us as a staff and board of management is that of maintaining a high quality of program and ser- vice in times of soaring energy costs and restricted budgets. "We must be strong in our conviction that recreation is an essential service to the community and although its merits often cannot be weigh-' ed as easily as other municipal services, its impor- tance should not be underestimated.
