     The short story he read was 
     
     called "An Easter Garol." 
     
     It was an interesting st- 
     
    
   
   
    
     ' cry and was well recei—

     'anddidtheback—upvo— 
     
    
   
   
    
     cals while John ('Itex) 
     
     tthillan did the lead vo-

     masterful rendition of Kris 
     
     Kristofferscn's "Silver 
     
     'Itngued Devil". 
     
    
   
   
    
     Next there was another 
     
     reading by Austin Clarke, 
     
     this time frcm his book 
     
     'Ihe Prime Minister. Af- 
     
     ter tin—is entertaining rea- 
     
     ding Mr. Clarke stayed and 
     
     listened to sane of the 
     
     music. 
     
    
   
   
    
     'lhe next perforner was 
     
     Mike Doyle, who sang and 
     
     accompanied himself on the 
     
     guitar. A couple of the 
     
     songs he did were "Annie's

     "Feeling All Right" and 
     
     "Are You Ready For the 
     
     Cbmtry". By ,this time 
     
     it was late and the aud-_ 
     
     ience was thin, but those 
     
     who stayed were generous 
     
     in their expression of ap— 
     
     " preciation for "the group. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Right now while I'm
