Going to the Dogs ...

We aren't sure that we should be admitting
this, but the two gents in the ears are
instructors in our Commercial Music
program—specifically Tom Hazlitt and Rene
Worst, who will be playing at the Lankmark
Jazz Bar Oct. 31 to Nov. 1 in ''The Doghouse
Convention''. If you want to go in a doggie
costume, you can get in for half price on
Halloween. Graham Boyle will be on doggie
vibes, John Sereda on doggie keyboards,
and Dr. Jim will provide veterinarian
services and drum accompaniment. Although
Hazlitt and Worst are from Cap, Carol
McQuarrie was heard to mutter ''The real
dog has more sense—he works elsewhere.'"!

Marble sculpture completed

David Marshall's sculpture is finished.
The piece, which was carved from 11 tons
of marble, is sitting in the grounds of
Klee Wyck, where Dave worked on It. And
West Vancouver mayor Derek Humphries even
cut a ribbon to celebrate the completion
of this sculpture, which took a year of
work. The marble was quarried near Nootka
Sound on the west coast of Vancouver
Island, and the sculpture is shaped to
harmonize with the patterns and colour of
the block. Klee Wyck, by the way, is at
200 Keith Road in West Vancouver (access
from Taylor Way.)
