FLATT ing and local projects, Several suggestions were given from the chair, which, if carried out would help considerably in the net result of each practice. Lateness, our big problem, is mostly a bad habit and can be licked. (Don't stay home to avoid being late.) 0--0--0 This week we salute the "Lead" section. (that's Leed, not Led). These boys are the most important singers in any group. They could put on a concert by themselves whereas the other three parts, singly or together, could not. The Lead part is the melody line of a song and therefore the only part that is easily remembered. There are times when this part is changed to make use of a chord normally not included in the song. When this happens, the Leads have to work a little harder as they are not used to singing notes that seem to make no sense. It is not neces- sary to read music in Barber - shopping but you must have a sharp memory and work at it, We are fortunate, in our group, to have a strong Lead section, and we should soon be hearing some of them quartette -wise. How about it fellows? Don't forget that your part is the one that the listeners hum on the way home. 0--0--0 WOODSHED ECHOES ---For those not tuned to the term, Woodshedding is an informal, impromptu Sing -Ding, with or without direction. Any number may attend and the place must be chosen with care so as our music will not fall on unsympa- thetic ears. Bill Connell is cur- rently engaged in this work(af- ter practice) and it won't he long till we'll be hearing the results of his hobby. This is a very good way to promote quar- tettes, octettes and what have you, and should provide some entertainment at our meetings. Woodshedding provides a chance to tackle numbers that the chorus hasn't tried, but when the time conies the Wood - shedders have a working know- ledge of same. After practice this week 1 heard some strains of "Sweet Roses of Morn" and I wouldn't be surprised if it was on the program next week, 0--0-0 A Reminder ---The first prac- tice each month is held at CKNX, in the rehearsal studio. See you there, 8.00 sharp, All singers CHORD -sally welcome, Practice No. 3-64 was held Tuesday of last week in the town hall where 20 enthusi- asts of four part harmony gath- ered for their weekly Sing -out. Three guests were introduced and welcomed ---Tom Pettit and Phillip Stewart of the Luck - now area and Ian Hamilton of Kincardine. Vice President Russ Zurbrigg occupied the chair in the absence of Presi- dent George Cousins. After a period of gang singing, normal practice was begun with much hard work on the "Oldies". (All of our songs are old and I refer to the numbers we have been doing which need more work.) During the business session several motions were carried. They included; For the present, "Chartering" be put aside so as to organize locally and strong- ly; Yearly dues set at $10.00, payable monthly or yearly, the money to be used for costum- YOUR OLD BUS Giving You Trouble?
