Town Hall 1873 will be proudly presenting its final subscription series concert featuring Dr. Tom Millar and a host of musically adept youthful performers on Friday, March 22nd, at 8 p.m. Little needs to be said to introduce the colourful Dr. Millar to his local au- diences. He will be per- forming light classical music on the pianoforte, including a segment en- titled "My Favourite Transcriptions' from such a wide-ranging melange of composers as Moussorgsy, Liszt, Gluck and Rachmaninoff.

Robert Dirstein is a rising tenor who has recently been accepted at the prestigious Britten Pears School of Music at Aldeburgh, England. He has sung with the Cana- dian Opera Chorus, the Ontario Youth Choir, and has appeared in The Beg- gar"s Opera, and the musical Cabaret at the St. Lawrence Centre -- a performer to be watch- ed, and one who specializes in some decidedly unusual musical selections. The evening's pro- Nestleton news '(From page 15) The devotional on the '"'Meaning of Easter" was presented by Gwen Malcolm and included the hymn '""When 1 Survey The Wondrous Cross." A brief study on 'Koreans in Canada To- day" concluded the meeting. President Jean Williams expressed ap- preciation to the hostess for lunch and program, and all repeated the Miz- pah Benediction. At 3:00 p.m. the U.C.W. members left to visit shut-ins as planned and delivered the Roll Call- gifts of food. This proved rewarding and we hope to repeat this format later this year.
