There is no admission charge for this concert, which is open to music-lovers of Oshawa, The band is a permanent- force unit based in Kingston, The concert will include mili- tary marches, popular selec- tions and concertpieces, Cap- tain Charlies Adams,a gradu- ate of the Royal Military School of Music, Kneller Hall, is the conductor, This is the first of a series of musical events spon- eored by the MCVI Music Coun- cil and will include concerts by service bands, school bands and symphony orchestras 35-PIECE BAND The band was originally au thorized as a 35-piece military band in 1052. The establishment of the band was changed in 1953 to allow for a Sé-piece band, to various Canadian States cities. jclude; phon of France, and President Ken- Inedy of the U.S.A, during State visits to Canada, At various times, it has performed before lI} the adult members of the Royal Family AT STATE CEREMONIES During the past four years, the band has been an integral part of all state ceremonies in our capital, providing fanfare trumpeters, string music for military band music as occasion res, and, was called on to provide the fanfares at the Seattle Worlds Fair, During the two years 1060-61 and again in 1963 it also appeared with the Regiment of Canadian Guards for three weeks each summer for the famous guard mounting ceremonies on Parliament Hill, Ottawa, In their home station, the band is called upon to provide military band, concert band, string orchestra, large dance band or small combo music, on demand of the many military units stationed in their area. Their military band pro- grams are noted for the vari- ety of music which they in- everything from sym- Dixieland, These pro- Peterborough area.

Of these three, Norman is the only one who has grappled with a full length production The taste of theatre work he had in "Junior Miss" under the direction of Ernest Winter at QCVI apparently whetted his appetite for more, for while at- tending Queen's University he played the part of Morocco in "The Merchant of Venice" and lead roles in "The Happiest Days of Your Life", "Hamlet", and "French Without Tears" While at The University of To- ronto, Norman had the privilege of working under Robert Gill and later on the University Alumnae group asked him to take part in their production of "The Way of the World" FIRST JOB Tn Oshawa in the fall of 1962 when Norman came to a cast ing mee for "Picnic", Direc- tor A.

The main concern was to see that the light for the locomotive was properly focused when it was time to run down the Villain. But a phone call changed all that. Unless something could be done, there would be no Villain to run down -- their Villain was at that moment in the hos- gave this part the brash touch it needed. Returning 'o the purer and more poetic English | of Christopher Fry, Norman dis- played the command of jan- guage in "The Lady's Not For Burning" that must have won him the part of Hamlet in the past. Tt isn't likely Norman ever dreamt, even in his wildest imaginings, that he would be the wings of a. char- dojhicle he "Dirty Work at the Crossroads" last April. In order to explore the lighting possibilities at the) Library Theatre, he was work- pital. So instead of concentrat- ing on lights, Norman had to become half a man -- the vocal half -- while another supplied the body and the moves. This young man has now taken the important and demanding step of directing a three-act play. Oshawa Little Theatre can count itself very fortunate in- deed to have added to its active members one who is 30 willing to advance into this field of the- atre work. Nor is Norman advancing timidly, for the ve- has chosen for his di- rectorial debut on Jan 28 in McLaughlin Library Theatre is "The Glass Menagerie'.

In the past four years it has pro- vided three instructors for the junior bandsmen training plan at HMCS Maden, two candi- dates for director of music training at the same school as well as a director of music and a band warrant officer for the Black Watch and Canadian Guards Bands, respectively, deer killed by vehicles in the Lake Simcoe District totalled the|*? during the year 1963, ac- cording to figures compiled by Wildlife Management Officer J._S. Dorland at Maple. Mr, Dorland stated that this number is approximately the same as totals in each of the vehicles amounted to $11,568 The largest number of known in following in that order. So far, this year, the number of fatalities is highest in the Town- ships of Pickering and Reach, in Ontario County, Caledon Township in Peel County and Toronto Township in York | The kills have occurred on jhighways running through pri- ivately owned lands where few lif any open deer seasons have been proclaimed in recent jyears, As humans and the ele- ments are almost the only pre- dators of deer in the lower townships in the district, these ifactors are seldom sufficient to jharvest enough animals, lawful- lly or unlawfully, to keep the jnumbers in check | Since 1953 there have been 794 known deer kills on high- jways within this district. 'Sale Plan Is Unique Something new in livestock sales will be tried at the partial dispersal sale of the Roman- dale Holstein herd of S, B. Ro- man at Unionville, This is one of lCanada's leading herds of Black and White cattle. The present herd numbers roughly 200 head. These will all go through the sale ring but 80 of the top animals will be of- fered in i. The successful bidder will then take this choice of the two, the other animal In this way every animal in the herd will be offered for sale but 40 will remain as a nucieus for the future Romandale herd. The sale will take place at the' farm on the May 18 holiday. A great deal of Holstein history has been made in recent years by Romadale Farms. At the Royal Winter Fair, Toronto, Romandale has four times been Premier Breeder and six times Premier Exhibitor and has won both honors for the past three years.
