Guelph University are ending nine months in Jana studying cooperative education The trip is sponsored by the Canadian International Development Association CIDA They will be returning home within the next two weeks Mr Okuyemi an engineer supervises cooperative engineering piogiaiii at his university There may be need to introduce more co operative programs he said but not all subject areas lend themselves to the approach One thing essential to any co operative program is the need for the student to be paid he said Paying student will enable his employer to fire him if he does not work out he explained While in Canada Mr Okuyemi spent most of his time working at Memorial Univer sityinStIohnstd He is also visiting several universities and colleges using the cooperative approach which is why

being held in the Army Navy and Air Force Club on George Street draw 1300 to two Sunday concerts ByJOIIN WROE Examiner Staff Reporter Murray McLauchlan likes to sing about the working people and people of the street guess its more interesting to sing about exploited people than it is to sing about ex ploiters he said after his two concerts Sunday night at Geor gian College His songs reflect his sense of humor which he descirbes as cynical Like when made joke its not Yuk yuk joke Its more like hear the money goes to the banks in Switz erland Har Sense of humor content or whatever McLauchlan was ap preciated by 1300 fans That figure is about the triple the at tendance of year and half ago when he played to less than full house at Georgian Sun dayhe filledthchousetwice McLauchlan now 28 gained fame for Farmers Song but most of his music deals with people living on the underside of Canadas larger cities notably Toronto Shoeshinc Song though not overly popular Sunday night was hit and portrays this street people idea More to the point and bet ter song is Honky Red MEMORY OF WINO This is in memory of wino who froze to death in truck behind the Harborfront Mis sion and consequently had to be buried in an Lshaped cof fin McLauchlan introduced 11 It is brutal and harsh as it tells of the life of backstreet wino whose main ambition is to be drunk when he dies He is sweet as can be when panhandl ing But when get ahead full of llocky Red dont give good Gooddainn In this writers view it was the best song of the evening An interesting number was Train Song It doesnt have lot to say and has less harsh presentation than others but stirs some interesting thoughts What is train Is it the huge thing that turns childrens pen nies into pancakes or is it something which carries the high and mighty in unap proachable splendor Think about it Trains are many faceted they give begrudging rides to hobos and delay hur ried commuters It just de pends on how you look at them McLauchlan used to be described as folk singer but he says that really isnt ac curate His roots are folksy but he doesnt consider his pre sent music any greate depar ture from his past MORE FLEXIBILITY For the past year he has been backed up by the Silver Tractors highpowered band that joined him for his present Canadian tour The band gives him more flexibility and he is now able to create fuller heavier music Lyrics have declined in im portance guess he said Now we start out with music and rhythm to get the audience attuned to the song then lay the lyrics on this bed of music Its sympiotic relationship where once built the music around the lyrics they now share equal importance The method is as effective as he planned Listening to live performance you feel the music and rhythm build then the message kind of floats across the top The Silver Tractors are fourmember group They lay mandolin electric guitar bass drums and violin Ben Mink who has been with McLauchan MURRAY MCLAUCHLAN quite while uses the violin to add haunting quality to the tight guitar work of Gene Mar tynec and Dennis Pendrith and drums of John Anderson With this behind him McLauchlan cannot help but be effective while swapping acoustic for electric guitar then moving to the piano Mixed in all this is his everpresent mouth organ The concert was tight and professional and with two full houses
