Although spring and fall operations were not so profitable, showing a deficit of ove92allthe surplus . of $4,306 oval finished n total expear withen- ditures of $425,317. The financial statements were presented as part of an annual report highlighting the Festival's accomplishments over the past year. Outgoing board president Elizabeth Her- man summarized the activities of the Blyth Centre for the Arts in 1983-84, noting in par- ticular the fond farewell the board bid to Janet Amos, artistic director for the past five years, and welcoming new artistic director Katherine Kaszas. Capital activities included the purchase of a Heintzman grand piano, the installation of new lighting and communications systems, and the purchase of a garage and attached land for 'additional storage, rehearsal and production space. $43,994 was raised over. the 1983-84 year towards capital purposes, leaving $41,735 still to be raised towards cur- rent projects.

Concert series sales fell over the past year, but single ticket sales have risen to partially tompensate for the drop. The Summer Festival enjoyed an especially festive year in 1984 because. of 10th anniversary celebrations. In addition to four premieres of new Canadian works and a remount of a past season's hit, summer -patrons participated in an expanded art gallery program, gala opening ceremonies with guest of honour Mauteen-'Forrester, reunion weekend activities, and an expand - Special 1. i 1 / o % IS months ABCANNUITIES 53 WEST ST.

Cyndi Lauper, the wacky red head who has- brought women's liberation on Friday nights with her "Girls Just Want to Have Fun", also presents a fun, upbeat album. While Lauper is all the rage at present,, she has true singng ability that makes her more than just a fashion. In "When You Were Mine" she hits a note that can shatter a wine glass. Furthermore, her music is well.writ- ten. The lyrics always compliment the song, even when the style changes. In all, She's So Unusual has much to offer everyone - rang- ing from "He's So Unusual (20's style) to the 80ish "She Bop." Rating: 9. John Waite, formerly head singer with the Babys, has found that treasured spotlight with No Brakes. However, unlike Lauper, Waite's album will not be long remembered. Certainly, his ballads are tender songs; but they are sung with an intensely emotional voice. To listen to songs of heartbreak sung in that desperate strain is very depressing. There is one note of interest, though. Waite, like many artists these days, has thrown in an anti -war song. Unfortunately ' other than the title, "Euroshuna", it is highly unoriginal. John Waite has had a big hit with "Miss- ing You." But note that the first line is the _ first line from the Babys 'smash h11 "Everytime I think of You." Tsk, • tsk. Rating: 6.
