BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER
Outstanding.
That one word review of
the Sound of Goderich '83
concert at Knox
Presbyterian Church
Monday evening tells it all.
From the first strains of O.
Canada to the final barn of
The Hallelujah Chorus, it
was a musical smorgasbord
without one single weak link.
The Laketown Band under
the direction of Blake Smith
was in top form. Best effort
in this reviewer's eyes was
Seasons featuring a truly
beautiful piano solo by Irla
Stewart.
The Craigellen Singers
with Ila Worsell as ac-
companist and director
provided a delightful blend
of three -.part harmony,
perfectly balanced. They are
my nomination for best
group of the show. My'
favorite number from their
repertoire was I've Got Joy!
Conductor • Lorne Dot-
terer's birthday was
recognized by The Har-
bouraires before they sang
their program of men's choir
numbers. While one
highlight was Movin' On with
a ,flute solo .competently
provided by Sandy bane, my
choice was Bound For
Jubilee, a rousing a cappella
event that sent shivers up
and down my spine.
The Goderich Teen Tones
though short on years are
long on talent accentuated
by the ability of director Irla
Stewart. Rhythm of Life
brought the audience to its
Leel ui a Standing ovation,
but my pick of an excellent
set was An American Hymn
with a trumpet obbligato by
Julie Meyers. Just lovely.
In the finale with the entire
cast, I Love A Sousa March
stole my heart for the entire
evening. The band was
superb and the singers
brought it to completion with
words.
It was a great evening of
finemusic by the people who
live, work and play in
Goderich. Add Madeleine
Edward's well-mannered
humour and infectious en-
thustasm as . master of.
ceremonies, the $2 ticket
price had to .be the best
entertainment value of the
year for anyone who ap-
preciates everything from a
rock beat to a Bach Chorale.

Huronview were thrilled
when• students of Hulled
Central School staged the

The performance was
splendidly done and each one
portrayed his or her
character very well. ' The

companist Bruce Cookson.,

A special Mother's Day
service was held in the

Scott, Sarah Carter and

duet was sung by Mabel
Scott and Elsie Henderson.

favorites old and new.

dressed. Rotary Club
members Tuesday_ on the
work of the North Huron Big
Brothers Association.
He stated that the local
branch of Big Brothers of
Canada • operates in
Goderich, Clinton and
Bayfield whercr-there are
currently 15 .ongoing mat-
ches between big and little
brothers, with 18 little
brothers waiting.
Men of any age wishing tc
be big brothers can write to
the Big Brothers Association
in care of Jim Mulhern, West
Street, Goderich. They are
sent an application form and
on receipt are evaluated by
the association and then
matched with a little brother
with similar interests.
The association, said Cox,
asks for a commitment of
three or four hours once per
week for a year during which
the "brothers" pursue their
mutual interests in a relaxed
and informal way.
Cox noticed that fatherless
children are six times more
likely to appear in court and
four times more likely to
drop out of school than more
fortunate young people from
an intact home.
Cox was introduced by
(rant Langridge and
thanked by Craig Cass. Marc
Chalut presented him with a
$250 cheque to assist in the
work of the local Big
Brothers Association.
