New Officers For
The Harboraires
In order to lighten the burden
of duties on their leader, George
Buchanan, the Goderich Harbor-
aires Male Chorus held an organiz-
ational meeting at .Sky Harbor
Sunday evening:
The new executive is as follows:
president, GeorgeParsons; first
vice-president, Robert Irwin; sec-
ond vice-president and publicity
agent, Eric Smith; secretary, Har-
old Bettger;• treasurer, Bruce Clif-
ford.
Since the group felt that it
would be impossible for them to
function without the aid of Mr.
Buchanan arid Mr. Stiles, these two
men Were appointed choir leader
and pianist, respectively but are
not on the executive. Mr. Buchan-
an has been in charge of all
aspects of the organization up until
now, and with the increased en-
thusiasm shown toward the Har-
-boraires, it was felt Mr. Buchanan
should be allowed to devote more
of his time .to training and leading,
the choir.
The next engagement for the
choir Will be in Clinton, March 9,
when they. will appear with the
Dominion Life Choir, of Kitchener,
la a concert. They willalsotake
