musicians from the community, the Or-
chestra disbanded during the second World
War and was reorganized officially in 1947
as the London Civic Symphony with Bruce
Sharpe as conductor. Two years later,'Mar-
tin Boundy, took over as conductor and
under his guidance the Orchestra developed
during the next twenty years.
It was under the leader-
ship of Clifford Evens that the London Sym-
phony Orchestra went from a community
orchestra to one of professional stature
when a full-time nucleus of thirty full-time
musicians, called Sinfonia, was formed.

These musicians were augmented with part-
time musicians to create the large or-
chestra. In addition to serving the people of
London, the Orchestra expanded its perfor-
mance activities to include communities
throughout Southwestern Ontario.
In 1981, Maestro Alexis Hauser, who has
been praised for his dynamic style of con-
ducting, became Music Director. It was by
his suggestion that the London Symphony
Orchestra became Orchestra London
Canada in the summer of 1981.
The following summer, Orchestra London
was selected to represent Canada at the
Musicarchetettura Festival in L'Aquila, Ita-
ly. That year was the first that this festival
was devoted entirely to the arts, music and
architecture of a foreign nation.
The second concert in this series will also
be at the G.D.C.I. auditorium on Saturday,
March 1, 1986. It will feature Richard
Hayman, of the Boston Pop Orchestra, con-
ducting Orchestra London in a salute to the
great dance bands of the Swing -era, musih
from the 40s and Glen Miller. This concert
played to a full house at Lord Thompson
Hall in Toronto recently. The Goderich
Rotarians are proud to be able to present
this concert as part of its concert series.
The third and final concert will take place
at North Street United Church on Saturday,
April 5th and will feature Quintessence. This
string quartet with guitar combines ver-
satile musical talents with wit and humor on
stage.
• Anthony Flint and Julian Knight bring
their classical violin and viola -playing skills
together with a bent for the hilarious; Juno
award-winning Lenny Solomon contributes
a musical style that ranges from jazz and
country to classical. Jose Shapero moves
easily from a jazz `walking bass' on his cello
to the classical and romantic repertoire;
Bill Bridges who .provides Quintessence
' with miUClh ,l' its Roost ►Jular material,
demonstrates remarkable virtuosity on ban-
jo, acoustic and electric guitar.
This winter series promises to be a real
winner. With a range of music from
classical to jazz to country. This year series
tickets go on sale Oct. 15th for adults $25.00
and a special student rate of $15.

LOOKING BACK
5 YEARS AGO
What started as a relatively simple job of
replacing 2,000 deteriorating bricks to the
south wall of the GDCI gymnasium, has
turned out to be a $94,000 job required to rec-
tify poor workmanship.
The gymnasium is part of the 1966 addi-
tion to the school built by a Kitchener com-
pany, Snider Huget and Marsh.
In a report made by architects Brian Gar -
rat of Kyles, Kyles and Garrat, the Huron
County Board of Education was informed at
its Oct. 6 meeting that the initial brick work
was halted at the end of July because
workers found that the deteriorating brick
was extensive.
Workwill be done this weekend at Robert-
son School to replace ceiling tiles loaded
with amphibole asbestos discovered in
studies initiated by the Huron County Board
of Education- hired architects Kyles, Kyles
and Garrat.
Certain amounts of asbestos were found in
several other county schools. The asbestos
will also be eliminated in due time. Brian
Garrat reported to the board at its regular
monthly meeting Oct. 6.
Robertson was termed the most serious
case of all of the schools because its corridor
ceiling tiles contain the -most dangerous -
asbestos. particles, called amphibole. Am-
phibole particles are the smallest of all
asbestos fibres. They measure about five
one -thousands of a millimetre in size.
It's time for another garbage contract for
the town of Goderich, but it could be a pro-
blem to supply continuous garbage pickup
until the new contract gets final approval.
The collection of Goderich trash is an
ongoing service the municipality has no
choice but to provide. Still, it was the feeling
of town administrator Larry McCabe at
Monday evening's regular council session,
that while tenders can be prepared, called
and opened by the present council, the bid
can only be accepted conditional upon On-
tario Municipal Board (OMB) approval
since the contract will run beyond the two
year term of couneil.
25 YEARS AGO
The Sudbury Garson Combines proved to
be no match for the classy Goderich
Dodgers as the latter team white -washed
the northerners by a 18-0 score on
Thanksgiving day to take the OASA in-
termediate ladies' softball championships.
Matron of the Huron County Home near
Clinton for the past 33 years, Martha Jacob
tendered her resignation at a special
meeting of the County Home Committee on
Tuesday.
A money by-law will go to a vote of
Goderich ratepayers at the municipal elec-
tions in December for approval or rejection
of the town providing $125,000 towards the
cost of a new addition to Alexandra Marine
and General Hospital. •
Another major paving project is to be
undertaken in Goderich shortly when Huron
Road, often criticized for its roughness will
be given a smooth surface.
40 YEARS AGO
Mr. and Mrs. E.R. Weston received word
that their son, warrant officer Richard Ver-
dun Weston R.C.A.F., was officially killed in
active service.
A tourist imformation booth in Court
I ?ark was officially opened. This was
antral project of the Goderich board of
ti '.eslie Riley, the young war veteran
in charge („ t he booth, was kept busy with
inquiries, mainly for rooming and accom-
modation.
Among those returning from service
overseas were Nursing Sister Agnes Camp-
bell, Sgt. Elmer Fisher, Lieut. Kenneth
Hunter, Sgt. Hector Kingswell, Sgt. Ralph
Kingswell and Liet Cpl Donald Thompson.
75 YEARS AGO
In this season of uncertain weather, the
pastor and congregation of St. Joseph's
Church, Kingsbridge have good reason to
congratulate themselves on the day selected
for the opening of their new church, Sunday
Oct. 15, for the weather was certainly must
favorable, allowing people to attend from
great distances. Father McCormick con-
ducted the serstice.
Pat Farr is opening a new grocery store
on Hamilton Street.
The past few days, large quantities of
earth have been added to the pile on Squaw
Island, the big shovel having kept three
trains on the move all of the time.
