RCMP Showband, an honor to hear by Peggy Gibb "Pomp and Cir- cumstance" may have been missing - but the program offered by the RCMP Show Band, was just what the name im- plies - an excellent "show". The 12 -man group under the leadership of Sgt. C. J. "Charlie" Hendricks had no trouble captivating the audience in the Blyth. Centre for the Arts on Sunday af- ternoon, November 30. The rafters of the old Memorial Hall fairly reverberated as wind, percussion and piano -produced a series of popular tunes. Many of the arrangements had been written by the band members themselves. There was a refreshing emphasis on Canadian music as in the tribute to Gordon Lightfoot, the Anne Murray medley and most certainly in a rousing and appealing salute to Newfoundland. To single out the per- formance of any one of the 12 men would be inappropriate, since each projected his own art of show manship. The Blyth Theatre is to be commended for bringing to this area, for the first time, a band which reflects credit not only upon. themselves, but also on our national police force whom they represent. The band played at no charge and the proceeds from the show will go to the building fund of Memorial Hall. The 12 members of the Shaw Band are Director and Master of Ceremonies Sgt. C. J. Hendricks, Andre -Frechette, Rash Ledger, - Don Bishop, Ken Iles, John Harrison, Monty Arm . R an d y Demmon, Michel Des Marchais, Denis Ouellet, Gino Scaffidi, and Max Ferguson. Hawkeye, Malak, -Chappa-r a n -d -Rus supervised a game of soccer while Tic Tic and Bubbles assisted the Beavers in crafting happy faces. Action sing- songs of Swimming Swimming, and Father Abraham lead byRusty brought the happy meeting to a close. COLONY B - The theme for Tuesday Might was also happy and sad. Hawkeye preformed the opening ceremony, then lead the Beavers in a game of "Sad Sacks and Happy Harrys." Sugarcube then divided the Beavers into lodges to design : their own happy faces with the use of magazine's and paper plates. Rainbow read the story of Donkey, Donkey before Riverbanks was -called- and- the.- meeting closed. CUBS - The Cubs had a game of dodge ball before dividing into groups to work. --,;on star work.
