" ' Graham Clark, assistant administrator at Memorial Hospital, Bowmanville, on Tuesday morning informed the news media that Memorial Memorial Hospital, Bowmanville should be back to full operation operation on Thursday or Friday. With, completion of repairs and clean-up of the dietary department the program at the hospital will be practically practically back to normal. Clark said over the past few days there was a fine example example of . the commitment of the staff in the general cleanup of the hospital due to smoke and water damage. The news media were given a tour of the new maternity ward which over the past thrëe days was transferred to a portion of the surgical wing on the third floor. Accommodation Accommodation for maternity on the third floor takes over q section of the floor that had been closed and will accommodate accommodate ten patients and their babies.

The maternity ward is at point that it can be opened as soon as dietary services return to the hospital expected x nursday or Friday (Continued page 3) AUGUST 23, 1980 by Mark Breen If you like heat, loud music, . crowds, warm beer, stale hamburgers, and driving over potholes, then you should have been at Mosport on Saturday for the Heatwave, concert. I was there, courtesy of the Oronp Times, from 6:15 a.m. to past midnight Saturday, along with 50,000 rock fans from Ontario, Quebec and the U.S.A. To the promoters of the festival, I am sure that this was a much smaller crowd than they had hoped for, but to me it was large enough to mingle in for 18 hours in 80 degree temperatures. temperatures. The first band, Valdimir Roucouf, took to th.e stage at 9:45. Teenage Head was up next. The band had not been advertised as being on the bill as they have gained an unfortunate reputation after playing at the Ontario Place Fofum .earlier this year. The band gave a powerful set, but the audience response was rather unenthusiastic, probably probably more due to the time of dpy than any- other factor. The Rumor then was on Tor a rather uninspired act. The people began to arrive en mass at roughly noon and the audience swelled to about, 50,000 'people. The police are to be commended for their orderly handling of the fans. Bottles were not allowed in and this kept any ugly incidents from arising. The band, Rockpile, played their brand, of snappy love songs and - gardened polite -response. Holly " and the Italians, a new band from Toronto, gave a mercifully short performance. performance. The Pretenders were the first band to really build the crowd up, getting a well deserved encore from the people. The B-52's were able to take advantage of the audience's high energy level, giving a fine show, with the people singing along, or shouting for their favorite songs. The Talking Heads hit the * stale at about 8 o'clock and were the first band to use the elaborate lighting system. Their show was a far cry from their weird arty-crafty records, records, as the music on stage, as the crowd soon found out, was very danceable indeed. The capping of Heatwave was Elvis Costello. From the time he took the stage he played non stop for well over 40 minutes, with barely a •break between songs. He, obviously, had come to play. It took three encores before the people were finally satisfied. satisfied. In the "clean up" position were the Kings and the Start. The logic behind having these lessor known bands play was to prevent a massive stam-' pede to leave at the very end that would have occurred had one of the headline bands finished the show. The two bands were merely loud; the crowd steadily trickled out during their performances. In size the audience fell well short of the hoped for 75,000 people. Apparently, there were reports of poor promotion promotion in the American cities close to the border. There were little security problems at the festival, possibly because because the audience were mostly in their mid twenties, and so, antics like those of the Alice Cooper concert, were absent. The ambulance attendents said that by far the largest number of people needing aid .suffered from heat fatigue, sprained ankles, and other minor injuries. Drug and alcohol problems were there, but they were few in number and-were well handled by the capable medics. While Heatwave was not the "Woodstock of the 80s"' as advertised by radio promotions, promotions, it was well organized organized and a lot of fun. In retrospect three things are worthy of mention. The mature crowd at the Mosport Festival were well behaved, exhibiting none of the senseless senseless violence displayed by rock fans at the C.N.E. earlier, in the week. The Regional Police are to be commended for their kindly, cheerful and courteous concern concern for those attending Heatwave. Finally, the first aid staff did a fine job of helping whenever and wherever they were needed. The maypole is apparentlÿ again was the case at the popular the wopld over and Hungarian Scout and Guide Jamboree last Saturday.
