NV band seeks members

THE NEWLY-FORMED North
Vancouver Alumni Band is looking
for bassoon, oboe and French
horn players to round out this new
local group's orchestral offerings.

Made up mostly from former
members of the North Vancouver
Youth Band, the new group has so
far received rave reviews from
listeners, said Kevin Hamilton, a
trombone player who ‘‘worked
hard’’ to join the local youth band
back in 1972.

“We came back with one goal
— music,’’ Hamilton said of the
recent reunion of North Vancouver
Youth Band members who played
at a Centennial Theatre show.

“These people put their instru-
ments down years ago and didn’t
pick them up until we started
rehearsals for the Centennial
Theatre concert,’’ he added.

Canada Day celebrations July !
on Bowen Island will feature this
alumni band, and the Vancowver
Sea Festival will feature the Freddy

Fud Puckers, a spin-off band that
dresses up in ‘“‘funny costumes’’
and plays various local festivals.

“We're having a lot of fun,’’
said Hamilton, who noted that
players do not have to be former
members of the youth band to per-
form with the alumni band.

Rehearsals are scheduled for
once a week. Any interested musi-
cians should call Ron Smith at
929-3637 or George McKenzie at
925-2443 for more details.

Phene books
delivered

B.C. TEL’S new Metro Vancouver
White Pages telephone directory,
now being delivered throughout
the Lower Mainland, is both big-
ger and smaller than the 1986 edi-
tion.

Listings in the directory have in-
creased by more than 17,500, for a
total of 618,335, but the number
of pages has been reduced to 1,480
from 1,488 and each copy is 35
grams lighter than the 1986 edi-
tion.

This was accomplished by using
space more effectively, rather than
reducing print size.

A total of 1,098,000 copies will
be distributed by the end of June.

The major change in the direc-
tory is the replacement of the
General Tariffs with the Terms of
Service.

The terms, written in simpler
language to be more easily
understood, set out the rules and

. pars cicy regulations governing both the
NEWS photo Stuart Davis | Company and its customers regar-
ding the provision of telephone

service.
