Town Hall 1873 concert sub- scribers. The teachers? The most compatible and incomparable siblings ever - Garth, Mary and Franc, the Genes who last Sat- urday taught just what Mos-Baugh was all about. Garbed in black, grey and scarlet, these dynamic trained musicians made the Hall happily rock and swing to their talent and piano, voice and guitar. From an eclectic, often original, always un- usual repertorie, the trio drew two hours of unforgettable pop jazz arrangements which left the cabaret crowd on their feet demanding more at the show's finale. The unusual Mos- Bach opener was follow- ed by Garth "Happily free" on piano as he made mike magic with mimicry of actual instruments such as the trumpet. Mary then took the lead as the three supplied a silky cool Simon and Gar- funkel medley of such - classics as Scarborough Fair and Hello Dark- ness. Franc introduced an unique musical adventure, courtesy NDP meeting Durham North- umberland New Democrats will select a candidate for the next federal election at a nomination meeting Sun- day, April 15. The meeting will be held at the Bowmanville Public Library, 62 Temperance St., beginn- ing at 2 p.m. Guest speaker for the meeting will be John Brewin, former presi- dent of the British Col- umbia NDP and the par- ty's candidate in Vic- toria, B.C. Brewin is the son of the late Andrew Brewin, long-time NDP Member of Parliament for the former Toronto riding of Greenwood and a pioneer in the democratic socialist movement in Canada. Although no one has yet to announce publicly of their intention to seek the NDP nomination in the riding, at least one and possibly more can- didacies will be for- thcoming shortly. In addition to choosing a candidate, riding members will also elect an executive to run the business of the riding during the next 12 months. The public is invited to attend the meeting, but only NDP members in" good standing many vote during the candidate and executive elections.

Durham graduates get jobs Durham College 1983 graduates have fared well in the marketplace despite a still unsettled economy. Over 88 per cent of the graduates available for employ- ment obtained jobs. This compares to 76 per cent placement last year at this time. Les Lear, Durham Col- lege's Placement Of- ficer, attributes the in- crease in the number of graduates working to two factors. One is the upturn in the economy which has made employers less hesitant to hire entry-level per- sonnel. The other factor is the extra effort made by both the graduates and the College's Place- ment staff. Breaking down job placement by Division: Applied Arts achieved 89 per cent, Business Divi- sion 85 per cent, Technology Division 91 per cent, and Health Sciences Division 92 per cent. Mr. Lear is optimistic about job opportunities for the 1984 graduating class. He believes that the quality of college in- struction and the career orientation of the courses augur well for a con- tinued success in job placement.

Franc then offered something special in the form of a powerful original ballad to his wife, 'We are the One'. More patter, more 'scat soloes and blends, more virtuosity was to come. Garth tried to show how he wanted to '"'Be a Star", monologue and all. (Let's face it, student exchange pro- grams with local prisons are an unusual concept). Mary soloed to the "moon and stars"' above in her soaring, controlled soprano. The trio sang about groovin' dancer 'Tickle Toe", then swung into a fab- ulous madrigal-swing number extolling "Blue Miami Sky" - and that patter).
