The Owen . _ Brothers _ â€"flamenco guitarists to perform at UW Harry Owen began his study of flamenco guitar at the age of twenty. Basically selfâ€"taught, he accompanied a local dance group in Vancouver for a few years. In 1971 Harry was invited to accompany Jose Molinas‘® master dance classes. He spent the next few years learning to accompany Flamenco singers. Harry has travelled to Spain twice, and has studied intensively: in London, England ‘with Guilâ€" lermo Basilisco (Paco Pena‘s 2nd guitarist). Imâ€" mediately following his stay in London, he went to France and studied urder Manola Sanlucar at the International Guitar Festival in Arles, France. David Owen, Harry‘s younger brother began to play flamenco guitar four years ago. He has also studied with Guillermo Basilisco. in London, and has spent several months in Andalucia, Spain where he studied flamenco guitar with El Rubia. Harry and David Owen, two young Canadian brothers from Vancouver are certainly not the first Canadians to be turned on by the romance of Spain. But these two young guitarists have gone deeper than most, and possess a unique knowledge of flamenco and an intense feeling for the strict and demanding rhythms required by this music. They will be performing at the Theatre of the Arts, University of Waterloo on Saturday, January 14 and Sunday, January 15 at 8 p.m. and are sure to create some warmth and excitement for a cold January Harry and David Owen Conserver‘s Corner Grades two and three students at Keatsway Public School entertained fellow students and their teachers by performing "The Nativity".

How to keep the heat in The first thing to do is to turn down your thermostat to 68 degrees F (a comfortable temperature) during the time that people are awake and in the house, and 63 degrees F, when everyone is out or asleep. This step alone can save 15% of the annual fuel bill. An oil furnace produces heat by mixing a spray of oil droplets with air and igniting it to get a flame. The fuel ought to be burning completely to give the most heat. There should be a minimum amount of air in the airâ€"oil mixture so that a "clean" flame is proâ€" duced. If there is smoke at the tip of the flame, it creâ€" ates soot and therefore wastes heat. The flame warms) the metal surfaces of the heat exchanger which then transfers the heat to the air or water that circulates around the house. Oil furnace and burner should be checked twice a year. An oil furnace check and minor cleaning costs about $17.00. An annual overhaul should take about 2 hours. You can check for soot, leaks or cracks yourself to see if an overhaul is necessary. You can help to save our dwindling supply of energy without losing heat this winter by following the steps outlined below. Keeping a clean and efficient furnace saves another 10%. Have a furnace machanic to come in to do an annual overhaul. Different kinds of furnaces demand different types of cleaning and servicing, so know what you have. In a gas heated system, natural gas is supplied to a meter and from there it goes directly to the heating unit. Inside the unit is an automatic valve controlled by the thermostat, The valve also contains the reguâ€" lator that controls the pressure of the gas. This is where the gas mixes with air and flows to the burner where it is ignited by the pilot light and produces an even blue flame. As in the oil heated system. heat from the flame warms up the metal surfaces of the heat exchanger which then transfers the heat to cirâ€" culate as hot air or water throughout the home. A gas furnace check and minor clean costs $15.00. An annual overhaul would take about 45 minutes. With both types of furnaces, the air registers should "‘THE NATIVITY*" Waterioo Chranicle, Wednesday,; December 28, 1977 â€" Page 13 Show a fittle style. be kept clean and clear of any obstructions, and the air filters should be kept clean. With a water heated system, radiators should not be "builtâ€"in ‘, they should not be covered by any sort of shelf or material. By insulating the ceiling and basement walls, your fuel bill can be cut by another 20% . or even more. Warm air always tries to go outside, so insulation is needed to keep it in. There are basically four types of insulation, each with various "R" values (insulation‘s resistance to heat transfer): 1) Batt & blanket in insuâ€" lation is made from fibres of glass, rock or slag and has an R value of 7â€"20, depending on the thickness; 2) Looseâ€"fill insulation is sold by the bag in pellet, fibrous or granular forms. It is made from glass, rock, slag, pulverized paper or expanded mica and has an R value of 2. 8â€"4 depending on the type; 3) Rigid foam Plastic insulation is sold in panels of rigid polyureâ€" thane and polystyrene and has an R value of 3.4§â€"6: 4) Foamedâ€"inâ€"place plastic insulation is foamed right into the wall cavity and comes in several forms (polyâ€" urethane, ureaâ€"formaldehyde) and has an R value of 46. The suggested minimum R value for ceiling inâ€" sulation is 20; for wall and basement walls, 12; and for floors over an unheated basement, 7â€"8. Electrically heated homes have a central heating system in which an electric element supplies the heat. Little maintenance is necessary here, but a serviceâ€" man can tell you if your system is running efficiently. Another 10% of the annual fuel bill can be cut by using storm windows. insulating the door and by apâ€" plying weatherstripping or caulking to sources of drafts. Two panes of glass will keep you warmer than one. and consider using triple panes on northâ€"facing windows. This can save you 15â€"35¢ a day. To find the source of household drafts. you can make a simple draft guage by attaching a tissue or thin plastic bag to the bottom of a hangar with two clothespins. Hold it under windows and doors and located the draft. Then caulk or weatherstrip. Use caulking if you know they won t be opened _ Give us your news by Monica Neitzert
