an excellent and final opportunity to view

The town will provide crew members
with lunch vouchers and the captain and
regular crew members will be hosted at an
informal luncheon by, municipal officials.
While only two ships, the Norfolk Rebel
and Sheilia Yeates, had originally agreed
to make the trip to Goderich, the prospect
of a chance to do some sailing on Lake
Huron lured the other captains to Goderich
Harbour.

Musical predictions
By Janet Tench '
Often one reads novels that attempt to
predict the future. Books depicting world
history are easily _found, but seldom do you
find any writing that epitomizes society to
day. At last, there is not one, but two Cana-
dian albums that deal with this criteria.
The first is a most interesting effort by the
Pukka Orchestra ( pronounced Pucka) . This
band, with their self -tilled debut album,
sound much like the Payolas, especially
with these initial release. Listen to the
Radio, co -written -'by' Peter Gabriel. With
Cherry Beach, Express, their second
release, there was trouble. The song attacks
the 52nd Division of Toronto's police force..
"Your ribs are broken and your face is a
mess and we strongly suggest you confess."
The Toronto police were so upset that they
tried to' get airways to stop playing it and
concert promoters not to book them.
Basically, the album in fun. It takes a
satirical look at Disrupted love ( Might As
Well Be On Mars), guilt ( Your Secret is Safe
with Mel,. and love (Rubber Girl) and com-
ments on these adult problems with a Satur-
day Night Live lightness. Furthermore, the
Pukka Orchestra has 20 different people
playing instruments The debut of this
Toronto-based band is a must for fun lovers.
Rating.9.
There is no greater satisfaction than
breaking a code that has been elusive. Such
was the case with Red Rider's, Breaking
Curfew. While less 'eerie than Neruda, this
critically acclaimed album reveals that
although instrumentally adept, their .skill
lies in lyrics. Their music is not raw rock,
with style. Their lyrics would blow you
away. Breaking Curfew, the song en-
courages rebellion against -a Big Brother,
WWIII - type scenario. Along the same line -
Among the Ruins - deals with survival after
the nuclear war. Then along comes "the
shake monster" to restore detente. At
times, Breaking Curfew seems morose, 'but
it has an optimistic touch: "I know you'll
rise up... again just like the Phoenix from
the dust." Bradbury all the way! Rating 9.
So there it is: society depicted as falling
apart 1 Pukka Orchestra) and Red Rider
saying, "We'll be here." Where will you be?
