Special musical performance London, Ontario is becom- ing Canada's own Oberammergau as close to '500 participants combine their energies for the November 28 premiere of R. Murray Schafer's APOCALYPSIS. APOCALN13SIS Is a dramatic representation of the Book of Revelations. and 'is being produced - in the tradition of the medieval religious productions which brought together entire'com- munities to work on a play. In this case, the produc- tion brings 'together the massed choirs of the Faculty of Music of The University of Western Ontario under Deral Johnson, the London - Pro Musica directed by Brian Jackson, members of the Fanshawe Concert Singers under Gerald Fagan, 48 children from the Mon- signor Feeney Children's Choir of St. Mary's -School directed by Hugh Timmons. The Chorus of the Lost will be portrayed by a 50 voice speech choir from UWO's• Drama Workshop, under Mary Neill. Meanwhile, UWO's per- cussion ensemble is busy constructing many of the specially -designed in- struments required, in- cluding the Angel's Wings, the. Chimes of Light, as well as a 21 foot Xylophone. The Choose your roast carefully Choosing roasts for special holiday dinners deserves careful consideration. Meat is usually the most expensive Item of the meal but, as marketing specialists at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food point out, a festive spread need not be a budget -buster. You have a wide choice of Ontario meats: turkey, chicken, goose, duck, pheasant, beef or pork. For a change, select fresh Ontario lamb or rabbit. Don't forget that lower- priced beef and pork cuts can be made tender by proper cooking and are quite versatile, even lending themselves to gourmet dishes. Mien deciding what size you need, follow these simple guidelines: Bone -in roasts usually provide two to three servings per pound and boneless roasts three to four servings per pound. Allow one to 'two servings per pound for turkey. 8. Geoffrey toostrodloss Homes, Renovations, Additions Farm Buildings d Repairs Aluminum Siding a Awnings Zurich 234.4432 D.10m.

The French National Radio Network, BBC Radio and CBC Radio have all broadcast the ' family's Renaissance. music and the CBC TV Network, TV On- tario and BBC Television have featured the Huggett Family on several specials. • The Huggetts have several records, produced by George Martin in London, England and released on the "Ayre" label, and their latest disc, "My Lute Awake", will be available later this year.

This last point seems to be the crux for the conser- vation authority's problems; it is a child of both the municipal level of government and the province. As a result, it is, accountable to neither level. . In the case of the Port Franks situation this seems to be a major bone of contention with the owners of cottages in the area. As stated previously, conservation authorities have done an excellent job in providing water manage- ment services during a time in which the province had very few regional offices. Today, the situation is much different with regional offices of the ministry of natural 'resources located in Wingham, London and other centres. The same also holds true for other government departments such as the ministry of the environment. If the duties presently performed by conservation authorities were taken over the by the ministry of natural resources it would eliminate the "gray" area between two levels of government and facilitiate (at least in theory) the direct accountability to the tax- payer in terms of conservation oriented programs. As it stands now, if a citizen makes a complaint to an Authority and derives no satisfaction he'll in all likelihood be on the road to a government run-around. A vast majority of areas which conservation authorities are responsible for are also matters of provincial jurisdiction and concurrently, municipalities have a say in certain conservation authority spheres of -influence. While this might sound like a typical government response, there appears to be some need for a study on the role which conservation authorities fill in today's world.
