Kane issued in 1971.The red print shift on the Centennial of Confederation issues varies as much as one milimeter to the right or left.The easiest way to discern the shift is through the flagpole.The flagpole is supposed to go through the line between Alaska and the Yukon.However, as can be seen, Canada sometimes lays claim to Alaska.Varieties and errors on stamps have been one of the more interest ing facets of philately almost since the hobby began.It’s quite a thrill to go through stamps and actually find an oddity.There are certain varieties in Canadian stamps that have raised questions.Namely those which suddenly appear imperforate and with as much as two colors missing.The scepticism arises over whether they were actually originally sold over a post office counter.The security of the printing firms is what comes under ques tion.It’s known that in setting up preparatory to a run.there is a certain amount of waste due to adjustments.This waste is supposed to be picked up and burned but, is it all.It has been suspected that a certain amount of imperfect stamps have, in the past, been smuggled out.The stamps are very legitimate but, are they really philatelic.Back in 1971, a gentleman from my area bought a whole pane of the Maple Leaf stamp in the Autumn season with the grey inscription missing.Since that find, anyone having such a variety must have it authenticated due to the many counterfeits that exist.HAIRLINES The varieties that have created the most interest over the years, have been the hairlines in the early issues of Canadian stamps.The one cent and two cent denominations of the Quebec Tercentenary issue certainly have provided collectors with an abundance of hairlines Hairlines are also quite com mon on the Admiral issue.There are three stamps in Canadian philately with varieties that are, to some extent, rather easy to collect.They are, the red print shift on the 1967 Centennial of Confederation issue, the broken door frame on the Cornelius Krieghoff stamp issued in 1972 and thetearin In order to properly collect this variety, you will need a minimum of six stamps.One normal of the tagged and untagged varieties and a print shift to the left and right, tagged and untagged.The tear in the tepee on the Paul Kane stamp is a repeat flaw.It occurs on every stamp in the first vertical row.The challenge to collecting this variety is in the different shades of sky.You will also find a variety of fluorescent grades in this stamp.The broken door frames variety on the Krieghoff stamp is also a repeating flaw.It occurs on every stamp on the fourth vertical row.This stamp also produced the extra logs in the snow varieties.One of each variety of this stamp is not enough I'm afraid.Due to tagging and fluorescent grades, it may take more than a dozen stamps to complete your study of this stamp.Fortunately, it’s not all that expensive.Most can be picked up for just under a dollar each.That’s about average for mint copies.CONTROVERSIAL SERIES On August 29 of 1986, Canada Post released one of the most controversial series of stamps to have hit the market in modern times.I’m speaking about the pink flaw in the Hudson stamp of the Exploration of Canada se-tenet set of four.Canada Post was aware of this error long enough in advance to have announced a postponement in the issue date.Instead, they advertised the error a day or two in advance of the issue date.Well, you can just imagine the clamor at the post offices on the sale day.There was a catch though.In order to be sure that you bought the error, you were almost obliged to buy a whole pane.The post office was instructed to sell the stamps as they came and not just the error.Naturally, there were speculators buying up as many sheets as they could afford.The next day, when the Post Office was completely sold out, the fever for a flaw was still so high that some dealers were selling a se-tenet block for anywhere from six dollars and fifty cents to eight dollars My contention was that, if anyone received such a flaw on a letter in used condition, it would be worth a lot more than a mint copy A CANADIAN GEM The one Canadian gem that has not been covered here is the Seaway invert, the simple reason being the chance of acquiring one is very slim.The second reason is that the story behind the invert is rather special.If I understand right, there’s a book coming out sometime this year by Larry Mcln-nis, giving us the complete story on the Seaway invert.I’m looking for ward to it.FLAWS IN EVERY ERA Just about every era of Canadian stamps has an abundance of varieties, errors or flaws.This was meant to whet your appetite on the subject.I would advise you not to be in a hurry to rid yourself of duplicate stamps, but rather, take a second, third or even a fourth look at what you have.You never know what you'll come up with The Gipsy Kings hit the Cdn.charts with Bamboleo By Larry King NEW YORK (API —There aren’t many bands who have made Charlie Chaplin cry and Brigitte Bardot laugh.But then, they aren’t many bands that sound like the Gipsy Kings.Their music is a fiery blend of flamenco, jazz and Latin sounds driven by a half dozen guitars; their lyrics are sung in Gitane, a mixture of Spanish.French and gypsy.It’s not the usual Top 40 fare, yet the band from the south of France, who are stars in Europe, have broken on to the U S.charts with their catchy Bamboleo.“It’s funny to see in Billboard that we re in different categories each time," said Chico Bouchikhi, speaking through an interpreter.“Nobody knows where to place us.” In Canada, the Gipsy Kings first found an audience in Quebec last summer.Its self-titled album has sold more than 100,000 copies in Canada and has been on the charts more than 80 weeks.The band also made two TV appearances during March — on Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson.PLAYERS RELATED The music isn’t the only thing that’s different about this band; the group’s six guitar players are all related.Brothers Nicolas and Andre Reyes are joined by their brother-in-law Bouchikhi and three cousins.Diego, Paco and Tonino Baliardo.“A family is able to live, work, do music and have fun together,’’ said Bouchikhi.“It’s better to have it that way.” The band has played together for the past 16 years.They started out playing street comers and cafes for change, where they quickly attracted an impressive coterie of fans.One of their first boosters was the legendary comic Charlie Chaplin.They met Chaplin while playing on the streets of Switzerland.“It was a very, very strong moment for the band because he cried as he listened to the music," said Bouchikhi."It was very strong to realize that someone who had made the whole world laugh for so long could cry to our music.” And what about Bardot?SHE’S GODMOTHER “We met by chance about 10 years ago when we received an offer to play for one of her birthday parties.” Bouchikhi said.“It went really well, and everybody was dancing and happy.So we became friends.She was kind of a godmother for the group.” The Gipsy Kings repaid her friendship by recording a song about Bardot titled (in English) Woman.Language has never been a problem for the group as they moved around the world.Bamboleo and its follow-up, Djobi, Djoba.were huge hits.“Emotion and passion do not need language really, and that’s the most important language really,” Bouchikhi said.And despite the growing success, the band doesn’t want to become too successful.KEEP THE JOY “What's important is to keep the idea of a big party, some kind of joy and emotion,” Bouchikhi said.“And if you’re playing to too many in a group, it’s kind of difficult to keep the emotion together.“You have to keep some kind of balance.It’s pretty easy to lose yourself while going up and up and up.” To prevent that, group members rejoin their friends and relatives each year in an 80-trailer caravan in Arles, France, for an annual gypsy festival.It is a time for the band to renew its family ties and relax.“It's very important to have the time to be together again before going out and travelling again.” said Bouchikhi.“So we try to spend a lot of time in France.” The giving begins with you.4 Christian Youth Camp Good clean fun and adventure in a Christian

TOWNSHIPS WEEK-FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1989-3 Canada Post was entertainer of the month and Gorby’s visit to Cuba rallied world media Gorby's visit to Cuba.Major networks sent their top anchormen to cover the excitement and there were hundreds and hundreds of lesser journalists from all over the world.How times have changed.When Tadeusz Letarte visited Cuba thirty years ago, nobody gave a tinker's damn.Those were the glory days right after Castro had taken power and the country was still celebrating.The plane over the crystal Caribbean from Key West (fare $10) had seen better d^ys — there were bullet holes in the cockpit — but the bearded Fidelistas in jungle fatigues guarding the airport were relaxed and friendly beneath the coconut palms.A CERTIFICATED TAXI-DRIVER The taxi driver, in a land where barely a third could read and write, proudly exhibited his new high school registration card and a jubilant population in the beautiful old port of Havana were treating wandering Fidelistas to Hatuey beer and demi-tasse jolts of syrupy espresso that hit like 100-proof vodka.Bleachers were being erected for another of Castro’s marathon harangues and everywhere juke boxes filled the sultry tropical night with Viva Fidel ! Viva Fidel ! Saviour of our land.’ In those days, we were all young, romantic and rebellious.Fidel was barely 33 when he took power.Che Guevara was two years younger.They d spent some 25 months in the Sierra Maestra Mountains living like Robin Hood and his Merry Men — never more than 2,000 strong against Fulgencio Batista’s 40,000.TADEUSZ WANTS TO SOW WILD OATSTO Tadeusz Letarte had been work ing in New York City where there was substantial recruiting of both men and money and he seriously considered volunteering to join Castro's merry band of freedom fighters.He even began learning Spanish.He wanted to live in the mountains, smoke cigars, grow a defiant beard, emerge from the This week’ Here are the week’s Top 10 pop albums and singles in Canada as compiled by the national music trade source, The Record.Bracketed figures indicate position the previous week.ALBUMS 1 (2) Travelling Wilburys Volume 1 — Travelling Wilburys 2(1) Mystery Girl — Roy Orbison 3 (3) The Raw and the Cooked — Fine Young Cannibals 4 (4) Forever Your Girl — Paula Abdul 5 (7) Electric Youth — Debbie Gibson 6 (6) Watermark — Enya 7 (5) Hold Me in Your Arms— Rick jungle once in a while to kiss the girls, shoot up the town and disappear into the hills like a cowboy on a spree.But while he was still making up his mind, Batista captured some American recruits, lined them up against a wall and shot them.That struck Tadeusz as rather a severe criticism for a bit of fun and games and so he donated a little money instead and waited until the revolution was won before visiting Cuba.Castro went to Washington and told Americans: "We are not Communists.The movement is not a Communist movement.Its members are Roman Catholic mostly.” He said.“We have no intention of expropriating U.S.property, and any property we take we’ll pay for.” The following year he nationalized American-owned oil companies and began seizing a billion dollars of U.S.property.“I am a Marxist-Leninist,” he thundered, “and will be one until the day I die.” BUT THE PURGE BEGAN Then the purges began.Thousands had been arrested and jailed and now summary trials began and month after month Cubans were taken out and shot — hundreds and hundreds of them.The killing seemed to go on and on and on as if it would never end.Seven hundred thousand fled the country Another hero bit the dust and Tadeusz was glad he hadn’t joined Fidel in the mountains.He wanted his money back.But his disillusion became part of maturity.Castro hasn’t grown up at all.?* * WHAT’S THIS?Besides carrying the news each day — international, national and local—our favorite paper also fea-tures entertainment, opinions, commentaries, the ‘commercial news’ that pays the bills and, lately, a substantial amount of what can only be called paid propaganda.Last Friday’s edition carried a quarter-page from the Alliance for Who’s who By TADEUSZ LETARTE the Preservation of English in Canada (APEC).This is the same gaggle of Ontario rednecks who see in official bilingualism an insidious secret conspiracy to Frenchify the nation.This is the crowd that endorses Jock Andrew's ‘Bilingual Today, French Tomorrow’ and believes the federal government has built concentration camps in Saskatchewan for imprisoning anglophones who dare oppose the takeover.Now they see a chance to exploit the frustration of anglophone Quebecers over Bill 178 and promote paranoia.“Wake Up Canada,” bellowed their advertisement.“Say No To Quebec’s Sign Law .Now Is The Time Canada.English Speaking Canadians do not have to tolerate this insult." Underneath was a coupon for donating money to APEC — anything from $1,000 to $25 was perfectly acceptable — and a place to petition the Governor General to overturn provincial legislation.One hundred and fifty years ago, Lord Elgin refused to do that over the Rebellion Losses Bill so the country would be responsible for its own actions.That same edition carried a full page ad from Canada Post Corporation (the third that month) extolling four ways to send a letter — Fast, Faster, Fastest and Regular.IT’S SPREADING Last week’s Stanstead Journal sported a five column ad from the same corporation headlined ‘Rural Report Card '’ (thus giving fair warning of more to come) and boasting of increasing postal service in rural areas.Hands up everybody who has noticed increased service in their rural mail.Exactly.The only changes around here are longer lunch hours and junk mail delivered ready s top 10 record chart Astley 8 (-) The Look — Roxette 8 (-) Like a Prayer — Madonna 9 (7) What I Am — Edie Bricked 9 (8) Appetite for Destruction — and the New Bohemians Guns n’ Roses 10 (10) Orinoco Flow — Enya 10 (9) Don’t Be Cruel — Bobby Brown SINGLES 1(1) Straight Up — Paula Abdul 2 (2) You Got It — Roy Orbison 3 (4) Wild Thing — Tone-Loc 4 (6) The Living Years — Mike and the Mechanics 5 (5) Lost in Your Eyes — Debbie Gibson 6 (9) She Drives Me Crazy — Fine Young Cannibals 7 (3) She Wants to Dance with Me— Rick Astley CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY SOCIETE CANADIENNE DU CANCER Y 1 wrapped in its own garbage bag — a customer convenience perhaps but environmentally questionable and economically precarious for those who pay Canada Post to have us actually look at it.REMEMBER WHEN?But that’s typical of the sublime illogic we have come to expect from the corporation we all love to hate Remember when they tried to lower their massive deficit by peddling little piggy banks shaped like street corner mail boxes?On March 20, the Record carried another full page announcing a new name — Mail Poste — and a new symbol — a ragged red arrow looking rather like the tattered wing of a migratory goose.“A sign of the improvements we’ve made," it said.And those improvements were touted in another full page ad on March 13: “We’re The First To Admit We’re Not Perfect” (Oh, yeah?) “But We re Beginning To Turn Things Around.” Independent auditors, it crowed, had reported that letters were ‘‘delivered within major cities in two days or less 92% of the time, be tween major cities within a province in three days or less 93% of the time, and between major cities in different provinces in four days or less 95%’ of the time." The same mail that brought this ad delivered a letter mailed in Len noxville seven days earlier 35 miles in a week, 5 miles a day.one mile every five hours.That, of course, is not between major cities but makes one suspicious of the increased service in rural areas.Even the Letters column is re cruited in the propaganda blitz Atomic Energy of Canada used it often — and unsuccessfully — in combating the citizens out to stop CHU’s nuclear reactor.Our March 7th edition carried a volley from a ‘Media Relations Officer’ at Canada Post in its unending and entertaining battle with its unions.It’s a funny old world.IIMM Sat., Sun.: 12:45 - 2:55 - 5:05 - 7:15 - 9:25 p.m.Week days: 7:15 - 9:25 p.m.30SO boul.POflTL AND _______‘i LUjH Sot., Sun.: 12:30 - 2:45 - 5:00 - 7:15 - 9:30 p.m.565 0366/ Week days: 7:15 • 9:30 p.m.L305Q boul POOTl AND IFAMOUS PLAYERS thtfA à ttowtful conspiracy lit the heiftland of Amelia, |Bi One cep has become ^Carrefour rESTR|E wwm ( ^Carrefour rEsTR,E 4—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1989 A delicious dilemna - Sunday’s international buffet By Sharon McCully COWANSVILLE-There was a resounding cry for a third, after the second annual international buffet in Cowansille proved to be as successful as the first “It seems to get better every year,” commented one diner with a plateful of delica cies from all twenty countries represented.To enhance the international flavor of the noon-time buffet,maestros Stolartz and Kinsella toured tables playing traditional tunes from several countries.Brome-Mississquoi MP Gabriel-le Bertrand was among the two hundred guests who enjoyed sam- pling the foods of the international community at Sunday’s event.Participating countries were identified along the buffet table by artifacts and posters depicting their country of origin, and servers were dressed in the traditional costumes of their homeland.The line moved slowly as curious diners quizzed chefs about ingredients, recipes, and customs.The main question ( in multiple languages) heard at the international smorgasborg was, “What is it?” Organizers of the event are already discussing recommendations for next year’s event.ABOUTTHE ONLY THING A VOIVO 240 DLWAGON DOESN’T CARRY IS A HEAVY PRICE.You can fit a lot into the hack of a Volvo 240 DL wagon.But at just $21,200*, paying for it won’t be a burden.$21,200 safety, durability and longevity.Which means that along with carrying just about anything you want to put in it, the 240 DL And for this low pnce, you’ll wagon is also capable of carry-get all the features Volvos are ing you well into VOIA/O famous for.A reputation for the future.A car you can believe m.SEE YOUR DEALER TO BUY OR LEASE A VOLVO 2HO DL WAGON TODAY.Raymond Auto Centre 4367 Bourque Blvd., P.O.Box 2945 ROCK FOREST, QC JIN 1G3 Tel: (819) 564-1600 •Mamilacuirer's suggested retail price on base model shown.Excluding faxes, options, dealer prep, destination charges and registration fees.iyay Fund liaising Campaign + Back something you believe in.Give generously to the Red Cross ! v Star-studded AIDS fund raiser MIAMI (AP) — Actress Melanie Griffith and her mother, Tippi Hedren, were tapped to emcee a star-studded fund-raiser Saturday to benefit the University of Miami's AIDS research unit.Also scheduled to take part in the two-hour revue were Leslie Caron,Cliff Robertson, Patricia Neal and Dick Van Dyke The money will go to the university's AIDS research unit in Jackson Memorial Hospital.The county hospital plans to tear down the facility to expand its trauma centre.SEATTLE (AP) — Actress Meryl Streep, who has criticized the use of the farm chemical Alar, declined an invitation to visit an apple processing plant to watch how the fruit is tested.The Natural Resources Defence Council said Friday the actress was invited to tour Tree Top Inc.'s plant in Selah, Wash.Streep has served as a spokesman for the private environmental group’s report warning that Alar-treated apples create an increased risk of cancer in children.Jane Bloom of the NRDC told Tree Top that Streep would be unable to tour the plant because she PIERRE PETEL PSC Pastel Society of Canada HORSE SHOW IN AYER'S CLIFF OF LANDS AND PEOPLE PASTELS From April 2nd to 23rd incl.1 p.m.-4 p.m.Wednesday to Sunday MUSEE BEAULNE AT CHATEAU NORTON, 96 Union, Coaticook Groups are welcome.For arrangements call (819) 849-6560 starts filming a new movie on Sunday.COPENHAGEN (AP) — The Danish parliament voted to boost state support to the film industry the day after Danish director Bille August's Pelle the Conqueror was awarded an Oscar for best foreign language film.Pelle the Conqueror, the story of a boy and his father who move to the harsh conditions of a 19th-century Danish farm, won the Academy Award on Wednesday.Babette’s Feast, by Danish director Gabriel Axel, received an Oscar last year.Culture Minister Ole Vig Jensen praised August’s achievement, saying the Oscar and Golden Palm awards for Pelle had put Denmark “on the map of world film history.' Despite their success abroad, Danish feature films often get bad reviews and play to small audiences at home.LOS ANGELES (Reuter) — MGM-UA Communications Co., the entertainment company that distributed this year’s Oscar-winning film Rain Man, said Friday that Australia’s Qintex Group would buy it for over $1 billion US.As a second step in the complex transaction, a company controlled by financier Kirk Kerkorian, who owns 82 per cent of MGM-UA, will buy back some of the assets, including the MGM name and famous lion logo from Qintex, for $250 million.That will leave the Australian media and entertainment conglomerate with the United Artists studio and a large store of movie and home video titles.Analysts had speculated that if Kerkorian did not sell UA soon, he would liquidate the venerable studio which was founded by Charlie Chaplin, D.W.Griffith, Mary Pick-ford and Douglas Fairbanks. TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1989—5 Kay Kinsmen: the talented artist tells her story By Claudia Villemaire LENNOXVILLE — “Come in -quickly,” she said.I had barely knocked before the door opened a wee bit and I was told to scurry through.Kay Kinsmen was restraining Tackaberry - a long-haired feline whose emerald eyes gazed with longing at the opening door.“I don’t know what’s the matter with him,” Kinsmen said.“He’s gone completely nuts lately, even leaps on my shoulders when I’m not expecting him and scares me half to death,” she wondered aloud, ushering me into a comfortable chair and rushing off to fix a drink for both of us.Kay Kinsmen is an enigma.Fast approaching four score years, this woman whose intense interest in art and all things cultural has never wavered, is perhaps most famous locally for her work with watercolors.“I think my paintings are warm.At least, that’s the way I try to make them,” she said, showing off several displayed in the living-room.Although we never tried to link her background with the warmth her paintings definitely show, Kinsmen spent many years growing up where the climate is tropical.“I was born in California, but I suppose my early recollections are rather foggy as we moved when I was five weeks old," she laughingly admitted.“Most of my early years were spent in Cuba and Mexico where my grandmother tried to ibring me up in a genteel fashion, fitting my station I suppose.” ‘7/ wouldn’t do to flunk my paper if they’re giving me an honorary doctorate now would it,” she said.Apparently Kinsmen found time rather long and Grandmother, in her search for ways to keep the precocious four-year old occupied, sent her off to the local convent.“They were the Sisters of the Precious Blood of Jesus.Wonderful people, but I was still bored.And I did a terrible thing.This was my very first drawing and the devil was in my blood I guess - for I drew a picture of the parish priest, complete with the flat-brimmed cleric’s hat.But that wasn’t the worst.I sketched him sitting on the you-know-what!.” “Well!”, the intrepid artist continued.“Of course, I was caught.One of the sisters spied me diligently working at this masterpiece, demanded that I show her what I was doing and slipped it away from my trembling hands.” “She was aghast.Her eyes flew open and such an expression of dis- gust I haven’t seen since.Her anger was terrifying and my worst fears were confirmed.I must take it home and show this shameful drawing to my genteel grandmother who would, undoubtedly, know exactly what to do with her errant grandhchild.” Kinsmen recalled the feeling of doom she had, trudging home clutching the incriminating drawing, desperately searching for a scheme that would exonerate her.“Finally, I arrived, tear-stained and worried, and reluctantly handed the paper to my grandmother.She looked long and seriously at both the drawing and at me.Then, a twinkle began to sparkle in her eyes, she began to chuckle and finally she laughed and laughed while I gazed at her in amazement.That was my first drawing.” Kinsmen never looked back.“When I was eighteen, I saw an ad telling about the Parsons School of American Art in Paris.My future looked rather bleak at the time as I was about to bo shipped to an aunt in New York who was very puritan in the strictest sense where young ladies, and especially her niece were concerned.I had inherited a bit of money at the time, so taking the bull by the horns, I applied at Parsons.” Kinsmen was accepted and her funds were suffcient to pay the cost of getfing there and attending Parsons.“Tuition for a semester was $300.That was a great deal of money in 1930.We were quartered in the old Medici palace, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world I think, and board was $32 per month.I had to watch my cash supply very carefully and always looked longingly at the people we called ‘the idle rich’ when they could afford to spend $75 on a grand dinner for two or more at the most grandiose clubs in Paris.” But life was good to the budding artist.Kinsmen fell in love and married while there and the newlyweds moved to Geneva, London and finally Montreal.“When my husband died, I was very lonely.Most of my family had settled in Britain so I moved back tobecloser to them.I've been back now since 1981 and found Lennox-ville suited my desire for a quiet life in an area where culture is alive and well and the cost of living is within my budget.” Kinsmen is dapper, keen and aware.Her work is sought by people across the world.A call from Arizona confirmed a request for an edition of one book she wrote and illustrated.Montreal Sketches.There is no artificiality about this person whose work, painted as she travels around the world, depicts a warmth and energy that represents the person herself.Kinsmen pastels leap at the viewer with dynamic color.“This one,” she said pointing to a view of a Spanish village, “I did when 1 was feeling lonely and quite sad.A huge dog came to me as I sat under a large shady tree and the companionship I felt from this friendly animal cast my view of the village in a totally different light.” One would never imagine a sad artist portraying the warmth of summer sun and security this painting symbolizes.We talked of her family and the joy she finds doing portraits of her grandchildren, sometimes using their image in other work.“You see my puppets hanging in the window.Tackaberry ate the foot off one in this Spring fever fit he’s having," she laughs, "but the jolly faces are my grandhchildren,” she adds."Life is a wonderful time for me." Kinsmen says.“I’ve been tak ing courses at Bishop’s this year and I have to get a paper done and typed by Thursday this week.Apparently they are giving me a Honorary Doctorate this Spring and it wouldn't do to flunk my course now would it,” she said, laughing at the impudence of such an idea.Kinsmen watercolors are presently part of an exhibition involving several watercolor artists at the Uplands Museum in Lennox-ville.:Jp> r 6—TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1989 Bishop’s and Concordia University Singers team up By Claudia Villemaire LENNOXVILLE — Bishop’s University Singers will present a special treat to local audiences this weekend at Centennial Theatre.To celebrate the arrival of spring several loeal and very talented people have put their heads together to write and arrange a concert which will feature both the University Singers and Concordia University Singers performing under Nancy Rahn and Christopher Jackson.The program will get off to a rousing start with the Concordia Singers under Christopher Jackson.Then the piece de résistance.The world premiere of The Birth of Spring, composed by Bishop’s University’s composer in residence Andrew MacDonald and performed by the joint choirs.Andrew MacDonald, has an im posing list of qualifications and accomplishments behind him.is one of the region's and probably Canada’s most up and coming young composers Barely into his •ids.he is already well established as a writer of contemporary, serious music that is earning him fame across the land.SPECIAL But the Birth of Spring is very special.Not only has MacDonald written the music, but he had the unique privilege of building this work on the word pictures found in six of famed poet Ralph Gustaf- son’s works to music."As composer-in-residence, it is expected that I will write a certain amount of music in a given time slot.Little did I know this work would be the unique piece it is.The idea was brought up last June as we talked of famous talent found in the area and it caught on immediately,” MacDonald said this week."This is a great piece of music," Rahn said, commenting on her role as director of the choir.“The music is dynamic, modern in concept and very accessible -singable that is.We even find ourselves humming it as we go about our work outside the practice schedule,” Rahn added.Another surprise is soloist soprano Eleanor Gang.To my surprise, Ms.Gang was the lady who met me at the MacDonald door and it wasn't long before I realised the Gang-MacDonald duo were famed performers in their own right, Eleanor singing soprano and husband Andrew, accomplished classical guitarist, known across North America as a performing duo.Their history tells the story of performances, radio work and recording long before we knew of their prowess in their present field.OLD MASTERS "I suppose early on, my composing reflected some characteristics of the old masters.Now, though, I think the music I write is distinctly my expression.It’s not dissonant THE EXPERTS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.FENEÂPERT b£5S Doors and Windows : Trademark register user Bergeron Desmarais Inc.4340 Fontaine, P.0.Box M, Rock Forest, OC UN IA6 Tel: (81?) 546-0294 like some modern compositions.I think it’s more like ‘art’ music, painting a picture of happenings and moods much as Gustafson’s poetry does,” MacDonald said.“I call his music typically Canadian,” Nancy Rahn added.“The words and score complement each other as they combine to paint a picture of winter ending and of spring with her swift and changeable moods bursting into bud.From a director's point of view, it's a wonderful dynamic work that challenges every performer and.in the end, brings out the best in all of us.” The choirs will be accompanied by a string ensemble made up, among others, of several students also from Bishop's music department.The concert will move to Montreal for another world premier performance on May 16 at Concordia University.This week’s concert is at Centen- nial Theatre.Sunday, April 9 at 1:30.Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for children and seniors.Aside from completion of Birth of Spring.MacDonald is presently finishing the orchestration of an opera he has written which will be premiered in Toronto May 16.The Unbelievable Glory of Mr Sharp, presented by the Canadian Opera Company Ensemble at the Texaco Opera Theatre, is another of MacDonald’s recent works.N msm X'i W ,y Andrew MacDonald, composer - Eleanor Gang Mac- Bishop’s University Singers and a tiny impromptu dona Id, soprano soloist - Nancy Rahn, director of listen to

brothers and sisters, trudging off to piano and art lessons with the sisters at Mount St.Patrick.But she's the only one in that group who turned out to be a professional artist.“My Dad always said I’d be the best to follow in his footsteps and become a lawyer like him.Well, all the others did.and, obviously, my first love was art - painting and eventually, sculpture,” she said, recalling her father's hope for her.I met Savoie this week at University of Sherbrooke ‘Petite Salle’.where a select grouping of her recent works are on exhibition.Working with wood, a type of acrylic cement, figures moulded and glazed with nickel, Savoie creates a dramatic atmosphere of human struggle through time.Claire Savoie IMAGERY Her montages are a combination using the imagery of water represented in the spaces and life’s obstacles using branches of trees that form barricades surrounding the tiny, wraked figures.The artist leaves open spaces which may represent time, infinity and perhaps, ) "Think about cleaning out your septic tank" Industrial and Residential the reward of rest after extreme struggling through life’s barricades.Illumination and background set the mood of the pieces which are carefully spotlighted, perhaps depicting the love and encouragement of a superior being.Savoie is a successful artist, educated in Richmond, Sherbrooke and Montreal.“I began by drawing pictures as I guess most people do,” she said.“The work you see here is what I like best, but doing artwork commercially such as scene painting has enabled me to remain in the field.” Savoie has many credits involving her work as commissioned artist for scene and prop design and painting for films and theatre.Her work in several mediums has been on display both solo and in group showings across

69th O.Henry Awards prize stories PRIZE STORIES I 9 8 9 THEO.HENRY AWARDS t 0 I I I o AND WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY WILLIAM ABRAHAMS "One of fhe mo»l welcome ligni of Ihe literary ipting it the appearance o< the annual 0.Henry Awards collection." — lai Angeles limes Prize Stories 1989: The 0.Henry Awards edited by William Abrahams (ANCHOR — DOUBLE DAY): $11.95, 387pp.Weather conditions in our region to the contrary, it is always at least a sign of the literacy spring when the annual anthology of stories published by Doubleday is released.Edited by William Abrahams, the O.Henry Awards celebrate the sixty-ninth year that this memorial series has been heralding springtime by gathring together the best stories which have appeared in American magazines between the summer of 1987 and the summer of 1988.The prize winners this year are Ernest J.Finney’s story “Peacocks”, first: "House Hunters”, by Joyce Carol Oates, second: and Harriet Doerr's “Edie : A Life”, which won the third prize.In addition to these three very fine stories there are seventeen assorted stories from authors such as Charles Dickinson, Susan Minot, Rick Bass and T.Coraghes-san Boyle.FINNEY S PEACOCKS Finney’s moving story “Peacocks” concerns a young man who is living in an orchard in California and caring for his aging, but mentally active grandfather, who has a number of peacocks that stay close by their farmhouse.Elmo has a brother James, whose treatment of his wife Greta is cruel and brutal, and while Greta cares for the old man and her brother-in-law, bringing them food and helping with the peacocks, there is a strange tension created between these family members.Author Finney's story is so well crafted that it takes on the dimensions of a novel, inviting us into these simple lives and moving us with the poignancy of their living and dying.When the grandfather dies at the end of the story Elmo will not release his body until he has made elaborate preparations and conducts some unfinished business with the peacocks.This story has such narrative power to draw the reader into it, that it appears much longer than the length of 35 pages that Finney was able to confine his tale to.HOUSE HUNTING BY OATES Joyce Carol Oates’s story “House Hunting" is a bizarre study Kaleidoscope By RICHARD LONEY in dislocation and grief about a West Coast couple named Joel and Kim who have lost an infant and seek to move to the East to begin life anew.Joel undertakes the house hunting of the title, and finds himself at the mercy of a real estate agent, Mrs.Brody, who shows him through the stately suburban homes near Philadelphia.At first the hunting for a new home replaces Joel’s grief, but then the endless traipsng through homes begins to act as a depressant, and Joel finds himself thinking about his wife Kim and their dead infant.Oates creates a gloomy mood in her story, and despite the trap pings of everyday activity at the visited homes, Joel finds himslef hearing odd voices of children in the attic of one particular property.The story ends on a note of perplexity, as Joel rips Mrs.Brody’s business card into pieces and appears to be contemplating the vast empty reaches of his life: "So close to extinction, to move an inch was to move a thousand miles ’.EDIE - A SPECIAL NANNY Third prize story, by Harriet Doerr, recalls a moment in America’s history when the First World War had come to its long, agonizing close, and a California family found itself with a British nannie named Edie who had to become even more than a mother to them.The five children delight in the memories Edie has of her native land, and hardly notice that she drops her “H’s” and has a pronounced Cockney accent.As Doerr’s story of Edie unfolds it becomes apparent that the father, widower Thomas Ransom, intends to re-marry.He does-three times-bringing to the household three remarkably different young ladies.The only bond that holds the family together is Edie, whose ruling hand and calming influence ensure that the Ransom children grow up under watchful eyes, despite the flighty nature of Mr.Ransom's string of wives.Doerr's story weaves in the biographical details of Edie's unfortunate life through the interspersed tales about her mother country that she uses to quiet the children.She may have been jilted by a young man named Alfred Trotter, who fell under the charms of a curly red-haired bar-maid at the Rose and Plough pub in Dorset, but the Ransom children only learn to pull these details together from Edie’s reflections on her homeland.Doerr's placid approach to old-fashioned story-telling is a wel-come change from the ex perimental styles that usually garner more attention If all of the fictional foolery and narrative perspectives were as freshly inventive as those of T.Coraghessan Boyle’s delightful story “Sinking House ", all would be well Boyle once again delivers the kind of story insight that has him compared often to writers such as Raymond Carver, the late Amer ican master of the short story who is being touted as the successor of Hemingway, Cheever and O’Connor.Boyle’s odd story is just one other unheralded — by prize, at least — story that makes the 0.Henry Awards such a welcome spring tonic.through, from the repetitive, appealing hook, to the simple but jaunty lead guitar riff that seals the song perfectly.The latter tune assaults the carnage on the earth ordered "From pure white mouse to number 10/Taking lives with a smoking pen”, while "The Mayor of Simpleton", the chosen video vehi cle, makes the case that Partridge may be simple-minded but his devotion knows no bounds Colin Moulding has but three tracks of his composing here, compared to the dozen from Partridge, and his are marked by a muddier, jazzier muse than his more pop-oriented partner’s.His bass playing, however, is a standout feature of this driving, surging serving of power pop — Oranges & Lemons RECORD REVIEWS XTC Oranges & Lemons ( VIRGIN — A&M) While it may be that XTC have arrived at their ninth album release, the career analogies are closer to the Beatles they ob v iously emulate than to LudwigVan.Ifthis enigmatic band could have their work placed on a Beatles continuum then Oranges & Lemons is obviously equivalent to their Revolver album — it’s bursting with experimental hijinks, soaring melodies, jazz riffs, and some of the most cerebral rock music being played today.Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding, with Dave Gregory rounding out XTC’s current trio, are aided by producer Paul Fox (whose credits ranges from Yes to Boy George, toelectically point out the reason that this band might engage him!), with Pat Mastelottoof Mr.Mister on “traps and buttons”.The fifteen selections on this two-record, extended cassette release showcase XTC's amazing agility in being able to jump from a song like “The Loving”, a lilting, harmony-packed tune, to the political broad side that is “Here Comes President Kill Again”.In the former all of Andy Par tridge’s pop abilities come shining checkout “Merely A Man”, with its Beach Boys meet the Brandenburg Concerto french horns playing a counterpoint to the pulsing bottom end supplied by Moulding.If 1987’s Skylarking served up a controversial song with "Dear God”, then Oranges & Lemons counters with the whimsical, witty and absurdly risque salute to onanism that is Andy Partridge’s wicked “Pink Thing” — the lyrics of which repay close consideration with lots of double entendre and typical British wordplay.All of the songs on Oranges & Lemons will stand up to the close scrutiny that XTC’s fans will be giving them: indeed, the fifteen tracks here swell out to seem like at least twice that number.Such is their richness and complexity.One caution, however: XTC’s albums take a great deal of mastication before they become as easily digestible as Top 40 pablum.VIDEO SCREENINGS Crocodile Dundee II (PARAMOUNT VIDEO) When we last viewed our droll hero from down under, the Croc, as played by the beer-guzzling Paul Hogan, had ventured from the out- back into the bleak urban land scape of New York City, with the attendant out-of-his-element sight gags.The Croc shocked small-time muggers with his bigger than Bowie knife rib-tickler, withstood the verbal assaults of eager prostitutes and found that the Big Apple was a long way from his familiar turf in Australia The sequel to this tremendously popular film, written by Hogan and his son, does a real turnabout on the original premise, which will be no surprise to those of us who grew up with the string of Tarzan movies The Croc is still idling in the Big Apple, but through a plot detail involving his girlfriend (Lin da Kozlowski) and her ex, and the de rigeur drug scam, he crosses some mean cocaine baron whose ugly arm reaches all the way from the Columbian mountains to the inner cities of the U S A With a sneering Latino in hot pursuit, the Croc returns to the out back, as the big city boys have to make do with the wilds of Australia in this reversal of the original Dun dee epic.Crocodile rocks his pur suers with an array of tricks and jungle lore that would have made Johnny Weismuller proud, and the action of this flick takes over where the broad laughs of the first Dundee left off.Paul Hogan can get by on his Clint Eastwood taciturnity — in deed, is even mistaken for ’ol Stoneface by a couple of camera-wielding Japanese tourists during a subway scene — and the direction of John Cornell is solid if unspectacular, so that Crocodile Dundee II is a pleasant surprise as a cash-in type of sequel.Whether Hogan’s family team and the original cast, including the gorgeous ly photogenic Kozlowski, wish to continue the string with a third episode featuring the zany Aussie remains to be seen.(VIDEO AVAIL-ABLE AT LE CLUB VIDEO, QUEEN STREET, LENNOX-VILLE; AND AT TREIZIEME AVENUE.SHERBROOKE.)

Antigua — The Caribbean, the great natural playground for North Americans, particularly Canadians and the people of the northern half of the U.S., is a fun region caressed by soft breezes in an almost unchanging climate.In Antigua, the hub of the eastern Caribbean, the temperature in the afternoons ranges on average from around 20 to 25 Celsius the year round and the average mid-dle-of-the-night temperature around 21 to 25.The trade winds that blow constantly throughout the year have a wonderfully cooling and refreshing effect.Many of the island’s hotels have tennis courts where non-guests can play if they are accompanied by a guest of such a hotel.In addition the Temo Sporting Complex at English Harbor offers tennis to the public for around $10 an hour.Boating has always been a big activity in Antigua, which has been known as the sailor’s island ever since the days of Admiral Nelson when the great admiral was stationed here as a young captain with the British Navy.Nicholson’s Yacht Charters at English Harbor is the granddaddy of Caribbean yacht chartering firms and from them you can rent a boat of almost any kind or size.Prices, of course, vary widely, from $420 a day for a 42-foot sailing yacht, for example, to $60 per person per day fora minimum 35 people in a 73-foot sailboat.Another chartering organization is Sun Yacht Charters at Parham near the island’s northeast coast.For deep-see fishing, expect to pay around $135 for a half-day outing during which you may catch any combination of the following: snapper, grouper, yellowtail, marlin, sailfish.wahoo.dolphin, king-fish, tuna and barracuda.If you like to do your own driving, a rental car will cost you $40 to $45 a day or $225 a week.There is no mileage charge but you’ll need a local driver’s licence, cost $12 and good for 90 days, which the car rental firm will arrange.For anyone unfamiliar with the island, it is best, however, to arrange tours by taxi.On average the cost for an island tour (from 10:30 a m.to 3 p.m.) is $25 per person, minimum $50.Lunchtime presents a good opportunity to sample one of Antigua's growing list of surprisingly good restaurants.An average lunch will cost $10 to $12 per person, and an average dinner $25 to $30.Add $10 for a bottle of wine.Antigua is one of the best of Caribbean islands for shopping.In fact, with the recent creation of two major shopping complexes in the heart of St.John’s, the capital, it can now be said to rival two longtime favorites — St.Thomas in the U.S.Virgins and the half-Dutch/ half-French island of Sint Maarten/St.Martin.The latest addition to shopping facilities is Heritage Quay, a complex of duty-free shops that was officially opened last November and which is easily accessible to cruise ships.Neighboring Redclif-fe Quay, which opened earlier is a complex of boutiques and restaurants housed in restored old buildings that date back to the days of slavery on the island.It used to be that you could exhaust St.John’s shopping opportunities in half a day; now two days is not too much.The best buys are probably in gold and silver jewellery, English f Thomas Cook^ avel AT EATON Ravelling to BRITAIN S EUROPE this

One of the real fun events in the island is the Wednesday afternoon cruise from Jolly Beach aboard the Jolly Roger, the last wooden vessel built for the Swedish Navy.She’s a 108-foot (33-meter) two-masted schooner outfitted to look like a pirate ship.For $40 she will take you on a five-hour sailing up the coast.Included in the price are all the drinks you want, a generous steak or lobster lunch, island music and dancing, rope-swinging and walking the plank into the Caribbean Sea, and wreck-snorkelling.Hotel desks will make reservations or you can call the Jolly Roger office on the island at 462-2604.The operators also offer cocktail cruises on Thursdays, and parties featuring barbecue, rum punches and dancing on Saturday nights.For holidayers who would rather fly than sail.AB Helicopter Services offers three sightseeing trips ranging in price from $150 to $450 for up to four passengers.You can get details and make reservations by calling them on the island at 463-1343.Horseback riding is an activity that has always been popular with visitors to Antigua and it has been growing in recent years.Both the Galley Bay Hotel and the waters-port are at Halcyon Cove Hotel offer this at a cost of $15 an hour.Scuba-diving enthusiasts can get advance information from several hotels — St.James’ Club.Royal Antiguan, Galleon Beach Club, Runaway Beach Hotel, Halcyon Cove Hotel and Jolly Beach Hotel.Average price for a single-tank dive is around $45 and for a two-tank dive $65.i If you’re a golfer, a round of golf i at the 18-hole Cedar Valley Golf Club will cost $16.Clubs can be rented for $5 a day.china, French and Italian perfumes, Swiss watches, Irish linens, cameras, crystal, cashmere sweaters, liquor, and locally made arts and crafts (batiks, silk screening, paintings, ceramics, wood carvings, turtle shell work).The big sightseeing attraction is Nelson’s Dockyard, where young Horatio Nelson was stationed as a British naval captain from the time he arrived on the island at the age of 26 until he left, three years later, in 1787, married to a widow from the neighboring island of Nevis who was to become embittered when Nelson had his much-talked-about affair with Lady Hamilton.The Dockyard, thanks largely to the efforts of the British, Canadian and American Friends of English Harbor, has been restored and is one of the leading attractions of the Caribbean.Many visitors put it at the top of the list.Other sights to take in include Shirley Heights with its ruins of British army buildings high above the Dockyard, the ruins (a few restored) of windmills from the days when sugar was the economic king (nearly 300 years ago), the beautiful Fig Tree drive (fig is the Antiguan name for banana), the Anti gua and Barbuda Museum housed in the old Court House in St.John’s, St.John’s Cathedral with its pitch-pine interior; St.Peter’s Church in the village of Parham that was once described as the finest church in the British West Indies, and St.George’s Church on the other side of Parham.And, if you have the time, think about spending a day on Antigua's sister island of Barbuda 45 kilometers to the north which accounts for more than a third of the total land mass of Antigua and Barbuda, but less than two percent of the population.Barbuda’s major attractions are its thousands of frigate birds and the unbelievable, white, postcard-like beaches that stretch, uninhabited, for miles.Like practically all of the Caribbean, the high season in Antigua, when hotel rates are at their highest, is from around mid December to mid-April.During the off-season (mid-April to mid-December), rates are not only lower, but some hotels offer special packages for golfers, tennis players, SCUBA-divers, honeymoon couples, and gamblers (Antigua has five casinos).Both Air Canada and BWIA International service the island regularly on non-stop flights out of Toronto.Travel agents can provide details on the hotel accommodation that is available.For more general information, contact the Canadian office of the Antigua Department of Tourism, 60 St.Clair Avenue East (#205), Toronto M4T INS, telephone (416) 961-3085. TOWNSHIPS WEEK—FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1989-1! After years of T.V.Italians go back to the theatre By Dennis Redmont ROME (AP) — After years of TV addiction, Italians are finding their way out of the house and rediscovering the pleasures of theatre-going.Internationally known actors are turning down movie scripts in favor of the stage, and spectators are responding by forming ticket lines at dawn to get into the hottest shows.Marcello Mastroianni has tackled Russian drama.Swedish film star Ingrid Thulin — the sensuous woman in Ingmar Bergman’s classic 1957 film Wild Strawberries — plays a domineering mother in a tragedy by the Spanish playwright Federico Garcia Lorca.Actress Monica Vitti gives a hilarious performance as a brash reporter in Ben Hecht’s The Front Page.“After more than a decade-long love affair with television, Italians are once more thirsty for their roots of great comedy and tragedy,’’ says University of Rome sociology professor Alberto Abruz-zese.“They want to be moved by real life sounds and be tickled by the comedians they saw on the screen.” THEATRES OPEN Last year, movie attendance in Italy dropped by 18 per cent.While movie houses have been closing throughout the country, new theatres have opened in Naples, Florence and smaller cities to bring the national total to 1,700.Thulin, one of Bergman’s favorite actresses, has returned to the stage after a 20-year absence in The House of Bernarda Alba which has been touring Italy.Bergman himself is due in Italy this year to direct an Italian version of Eugene O'Neill’s Long Day’s Journey Into Night.Mastroianni’s performance in Mechanical Pianola produced a nightly traffic jam in Rome's central Piazza Argentina.They play is adapted from a short story by Chekhov.Mastroianni told interviewers he hadn’t felt so thrilled since he won an Oscar nomination for his role in Dark Eyes three years ago.Comedian Ugo Tognazzi riled a few government ministers and triggered controversy by improvising lines about corruption in high places during his stage version of Moliere’s classic The Miser.TICKETS UP Italians spent the equivalent of $140 million Cdn on theatre tickets in 1987 — a 23-per-cent increase from 1986, and 1988 figures point to another 20-per-cent jump.During that period, the average price of an orchestra seat increased only about 16 per cent to the equivalent of $25 Cdn.Government statistics show that one out of five Italians attended some sort of theatre performance in 1988.Just as in Roman times, when the government organized theatre * 4 m r * 'w* % * *m* * * wmm, .m, $ » wt - BCS tillers make a lot

translations of Broadway hits to Greek tragedy to Italian classics.Post avant-garde performances and experimental groups at 500 private theatres and four drama schools also get a share of the amount equivalent to $50 million Cdn that the government annually allocates to encourage the theatre industry.ROOTS ANCIENT Italy’s ancient theatre tradition has its roots in the classics of Greek theatre — tragedy, comedy and satire.In medieval times, religious themes were popular.During the Renaissance a new form based on classic theatre was shaped by Machiavelli and others It gave way to the commedia de-U'arte which dominated Italy and most of Europe until the end of the 1700s, Luigi Pirandello, master of Italy’s 20th-century theatre, focused on the condition of the modern man.While the classics are still popular, they have competition from Broadway-style productions.Vitti.who starred in an allwoman version of Neil Simon’s Odd Couple last year, has been touring Italy in The Front Page "The success has been incredi ble.” she said."Spectators have stood on line all night in Turin and Lucca.Police have had to intervene to stop punchups over tickets.” A scuffle erupted New Year’s Eve in Milan over the presentation of Trojan Women in ancient Greek Fifty spectators fought over the re maining four tickets on sale at a theatre.Other serious dramas, including works by Shakespeare and Piran dello, are playing to sold out crowds.ekts am 1- LOST IN YOUR EYES Debbie Gibson 1 2- SHE DRIVES ME CRAZY Fine Young Cannibals 3 3- ETERNAL FLAME Bangles 6 4- LIKE A PRAYER Madonna 9 5- YOU GOT
