Home My WebLink AboutThe Goderich Signal-Star, 1987-10-14, Page 9ommunit , News GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1987—PAGE 9 Knights of Columbus A homeowned by Ray Young, of Goderich, was moved Friday mor- ning from its previous location on Bayfield Road (near the Bedford Arms Hotel) to its new location on MacDonald Street across from the Goderich Arena. The move, assisted by the GoderichfiPUC and town police, was to originally have been a simple jaunt from Bayfield Road, down Blake Street and up MacDonald Street, however the house was loaded to high on the trailer for the wires that crossed the roads so an alternate route was taken. The new route consisted of travelling down Bayfield Road, turning right on Suncoast Drive, right on South Street to Blake Street and up Mac- Donald. PUC workers rode on top of the house to lift wires over the roof and chimney. The move took most of the day to complete. ( photo by Lou -Ann DeBruyn ) True Canadian hero, Murray McLauchlan, to entertain in Goderich this weekend By Rob Bundy Murray Mclauchlan is one of a rare breed. Like Gordon Lightfoot or Anne Mur- ray, McLauchlan is a true Canadian hero and there just aren't that many of them. McLauchlan is an adventurer, a dreamer, a talented songwriter and a superb showman. You need only see one of his concerts to discover that this soft - spoken performer really does have something to say about our great country and that he says it with unique style. "Canadian music is alive and well" said McLauchlan in a recent phone interview from his Toilonto home, "but sometimes you just have to look for it in the right places.'' The right place this week is at the Livery Theatre in Goderich as McLauchlan br- ings his show to town. The show, which will ' feature McI auchlan backed by two other Canadian kik artists, Kitt Johnston and Danny Greenspot, goes Sunday, October 18 at 8 p.m. Tickets for the concert are still available from Campbell's, -The Enter- tainer, Sam's and the Recreation Office. Since his first album, 'Song From .the Street', released in 1971, to his latest offer- ing, `Midnight Break', McLauchlan has consistantly provided his ever growing au- dience with songs from the heart. Over the years, he has been honored with seven "Juno Awards. "My music is best described as kids songs for adults," says McLauchlan. "I'd like to think the music points out modes of human behavior in a natural state. Rock has'whistles and bells, but folk music plugs along naturally. It's something everyone can relate to. At least, I hope it is." Besides touring' Canada from coast to coast almost every year, McLauchlan also produces his own albums and takes a month or two between tours to write his songs. Two years ago his TV special "Floating Over Canada" was featured on CBC and following its great success, he has plans to try a similar project again...if time allows. "I really enjoyed working on `Floating'," says McLauchlan, "and was happy to see it was so well received. As for new projects, I have a few things in the fire right now but they're just ideas at this point. I'm a songwriter first and that's what I really want to do." While "Floating Over Canada" was a success in this'country, it was also a sur- prise success in the Far East. CBC sold the program to China and it was just as big a hit there. "I've never sold a record in China," muses McLauchlan, "but 200 million Chinese have seen me floating over Canada." His list of hit songs is as long as his coun -try--is--wide:- He-w'on--the-Composer=of--the- Year award in 1973 for `Farmer's Song', he touched hearts with `Whispering Rain' in 1979 and in 1981, his song `If The Wind Could Blow My Troubles Away' was chosen by the International Year of Disabled Persons as their worldwide theme song. While writing and producing records takes much of his time, McLauchlan says he loves performing in front of an audience best. "I'll never get tired of touring," he says. "It's important for any artist to get feed- back and the belt watto do that is get out and -sing -;for` p!eI Besides` t11e1' of ost :'t9hterwill see McLauchlan p 'y Har'r'iston on the 16th and Blyth on , e 17th before taking in Goderich on S day, he will soon embark on a tour whicljwill take the show to Alber- ta and the Ndrthwest Territories. From there it's off to Australia where McLauchlan is realizing a growing popularity. As a great Canadian songwriter, Murray McLauchlan 1}as what it takes and shows no signs of letting up. He has a new album in the works and his intimate perfor- mances lend themselves perfectly to creating the type of audience he thrives on...real folks. "I'm not trying to bring about world peace with my shows but you can bet it's good value fdr your entertainment buck." Don't miss Murray McLauchlan this weekend. It's not often we get to see .a real live Canadian folk hero. Steps planned to alleviate water problems Goderich town council will take steps to alleviate some of the water problems in the town's Industrial Park by establishing a reserve fund to be used for storm sewer construction. Council passed bylaw 104 Oct. 5, enabl- ing the town to establish a fund that will commit 50 per cent of the sale price of in- dustrial land to an account to be used for constructions of sewers at a later date. In a repfort to council, administrator Larry McCabe said the' matter was brought to council's attention in 1978 via a report which indicated that expenditures would have to be undertaken to alleviate a water problem in the industrial park. He said the present-day value of the work re- quired would be in excess of $2 million. The bylaw means council has establish- ed two reserves, one for future storm sewer work and another for land develop- ment costs as in the case of the construc- tion of MacEwan Street. The town has completed some necessary ditching work ill the area to alleviate some water problems, but eventually hopes to At Saltford Valley Hall SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17th 8:00 p.m. - 1 a.m. Proceeds to Arthritis Society Music by The Swing Masters Octoberfest Meal 7:00 p®m 8:00 p.m. $10. per person Meal Included.

Councillor Bill Clifford said the reserve is neccessary to complete' the project ad- ding that "it would not hinder industrial growth." Councillor Jim Searls suggested the in- terest from the Pollution Control Fund reserve should be used. McCabe said the money from the surcharge, used to com- plete sewage plant improvements, has since been used to complete sidewalk and sewer work. Looking for something to do this winter? Think ..
