Array Coast residents facing ferry cuts next winter Sunshine Coast residents will have their ferry service substantially reduced next winter under a proposed plan which would leave the Peninsula with only one ferry shuttling between Horseshoe Bay and Langdale. v The plan would also limit daily service hours to two labour shifts, forcing elimination of either early morning or late night sailings. Ferries officials called for public input into how the local schedule should be trimmed. The proposed summer sailing schedule also was made public at a Sunshine Coast transportation committee meeting held April 5 at Earls Cove. Bill Bouchard., assistant traffic manager of the crown corporation, told members of the committee that the "Queen of Tsawwassen' will be taken off the Sunshine Coast in May. During peak summer periods the regular service provided by the 'Queen of New Westminster' will be supplemented by additional sailings of the 'Queen of Nanaimo* and the 'Queen of Burnaby'. The two stretch ferries will continue on to Nanaimo after docking at Horseshoe Bay. Bouchard said next winter's schedule will be restricted, by the turnaround time of slightly over two hours needed by the 'Queen of New Westminster'. If the 5:30 a.m. and 7:40 a.m. sailings are reinstated then there can be no 6:30 a.m. sailing from Langdale, according to the assistant traffic manager. Bouchard also maintained that many people felt that any 6:30 a.m. sailing should be out .of Horseshoe Bay in order to clear the early morning-truck traffic. Bouchard claimed the ferry corporation is willing to listen to what residents have to say about the proposed winter schedule. Gibsons Harbour Business Association president Bill Edney told Bouchard the 11:15 p.m. summer sailing from Horseshoe Bay "is quite a bit better than what we have had." But he said people who went to Vancouver for the evening would still have to leave by 10:30 p.m. in order to . get home that night. Both Edney and Don Pearsell of the Concerned Citizens suggested having one sailing after midnight. Bouchard pointed out that on the Tsawwawwen to Swartz Bay run the latest ferry left the Lower Mainland at 10 p.m. and that it would be hard to justify giving later service to the Sunshine Coast when it was denied to residents of Victoria. Edney replied that Vancouver Island people did not have to depend exclusively on Vancouver for their entertainment. Changes in ferry schedules should be published in advance and a public meeting should be held to discuss the new sailings, Pearsell said. "We won't get a consensus," he told Bouchard, "but there will be feedback." By leaving the public announcement until the schedule is under negotiation with the union workers, Pearsell said "it is a little late for our kick at the can." Throughout the monthly meetings with Bouchard, Edney has been arguing for lower fares during off-travel times of the day. He returned to this theme last week, saying the price hike on the ferries means "loss of weekend residents, summer holiday people and relatives of people who live here are1 just not visiting." Other committee members claimed that the ferries were deterring tourists with large campers from visiting the Peninsula and Powell River because of the 50 per cent overheight penalty placed on their vehicles. Pears-fell said people charged extra were upset when they were given no preferential treatment in loading and were left behind as small cars were allowed onto the ferries. Backing this statement, Edney maintained there were times of day when the ferries were sailing nearly empty. Oversized vehicles should be encouraged to travel during these periods, he said. The committee decided to send a letter to Transport Minister Jack Davis urging the extra tariff be abolished. The only open flare-up between the ferries official and members of the committee came when Bouchard produced figures showing that from January to March this year, the Langdale run carried from 27 per cent to 33 per cent of its vehicle capacity and 12 per cent to 16 per cent of its passenger load. According to the statistics handed out by Bouchard, the local ferries were capable of taking on a total of 53,514 vehicles and 254,463 passengers in March. What was actually carried during this month was 17,771 vehicles and 41,644 passengers. "These figures are telling us a gross lie," Edney said. "If you think I bring statistics here to bull..., we'll stop issuing them," retorted Bouchard who said the figures were an overall average and did not indicate any overloading periods. Endey replied that people looking at these figures would make the "erroneous assumption" that the service is underused. Pearsell added that when the 'Queen of the Islands' was on the Langdale run there were constant lineups for the ferries but that the statistics did not reflect ��� See Page A-3 Proposed ferry sailings Following is the proposed summer sailing schedule for B.C.

If you suspect we have had an unusually mild winter, you're right. Locally available temperature records extend back only until the winter of 1970- 71, but the weather this season has been the mildest recorded since tliat period.

By DENNIS FITZGERALD July promises to be a critical month for the future of recreation programs on the Sunshine Coast. Gibsons officials are scrambling to meet a July 9 federal deadline for beginning the construction phase of the village swimming pool; and Jack Whitaker, chairman of the Sunshine Coast Parks and Recreation Commission,, is; guessing that the regional district-5 recreation referendum will go to voters sometime iri July. Progress on the Gibsons pool received an apparent setback when letters to engineering firms requesting estimates for pool construction produced inadequate responses. Alderman I^orraine Goddard, chair- > man of the village's recreation committee, told the council April 5 that responses to the letter were "apples and oranges," comprising a variety of non-comparable estimates. She said the lack of uniformity among the responses is "probably because of our inexperience" in soliciting such information. Alderman Jim Metzler fumed, "This puts us right back where we started from." But Goddard replied that planning progress has been made through an advisory committee struck by Mayor l*nry labonte. Council approved a motion by Metzler that the village "employ someone with expertise" to facilitate the planning. Goddard also moved that the village send a letter to the regional district stating Gibsons' intention to join the district's recreation function. Joining the function, she said, would allow the village to receive funds to defray the pool's annual operating deficit. Depending on the size of the pool, this deficit may total minimally $25,000 a year, based on figures from other municipalities serving a comparable population, she said. The operating deficit includes those expenses remaining after subracting all revenue produced by use of the pool. Metzler opposed this suggestion. He said that once the village joined the recreation function, it could not withdraw. If the proposed referendum is not approved for submission to voters by Victoria or if voters reject the referendum, Gibsons would then be tied to the function but would have no assurance of receiving needed funds and would be compelled to support financially whatever recreation commitments the district might assume, Metzler said. "Once you're in, you're locked in," he said. "I'm all for the two mill (recreation) referendum. I support that 100 percent But I have some doubts about going in (to the function) because it's an open-ended thing, and you just don't know what might happen." Goddard conceded Metzler's point, but argued that unless the village took the risk and joined the function now, it would likely be frozen out of the district's recreation funding for the five-year period covered by the referendum. Gibsons would than face the prospect of covering the operating deficit out of its own budget or attempting to find grant money from another source. A compromise was reached by Metzler's suggestion that the village investigate the possibility of becoming a party to the recreation referendum without joining the district's recreation., function. Gibsons is the only Sunshine Coast area which is not a member of the recreation function. Goddard also offered council the latest estimates secured by her committee for pool construction and operating deficits. Construction costs for an enclosed pool would be about $400,000 for a 24-foot by 60- foot and $800,000 to $1 million or higher for a 25 meter (89 foot) pool, she said. The critical cost factor, Goddard said, is the total number of square feet in a pool's surface area. Above 1,800 square feet, numerous health and construction requirements become effective which increase the cost of a pool appreciably, she said. Goddard said later that the 24-foot by 60-foot size, which equals 1,440 square feet, was suggested by several experts. She acknowledged that could be expanded to, for instance, 24 by 75 or 30 by 60 without exceeding the 1,800-square-foot figure. She said estimated annual deficits for a fewkWri, "m-p- Wt'Mw ,.^*"w" .�����pr-'" THEY HAD QUITE an Easter at the hoM.stiold of Sven and Helen Soren.sen in Welcome llei.eh.

Timesphotos 25 meter pool would be $60,000 to $90,000 as compared to $25,000 for the 24-foot by 60- foot size. She stressed that deficits could not be estimated with any certainty since, the figure is entirely dependent on how much use residents choose to make of the pool. Metzler objected to Goddard's failure to supply figures for an open pool. "We knew from day one we didn't have enough ;��� rnon^y |yr a covered pool," he said. "How ' did wfe 'get to this point?" The village's federal Neighbourhood Improvement Programme grant is for $300,000, to which Gibsons is obligated to add $100,000. A portion of that grant will be used to construct a soccer and rugby field at Brothers Memorial Park and to make certain improvements to Dougal Park, including resurfacing of the tennis courts and purchase of playground equipment. Goddard responded to Metzler's statement, saying that public sentiment is being taken into account in the committee's considerations, particularly as regards a larger pool. It has been pointed out in council previously that the operating deficit for a covered pool would be substantially less than that for an open pool because the covered pool could be used year round. Consideration is being given to building an open pool, disigned so that it could later be enclosed.' A relatively inexpensive bubble-type roof has also been proposed as a temporary covering. Goddard said later that building an open pool now and adding a later enclosure would cost an estimated 150 percent more than completing the job in one step. Regarding the Parks and Recreation Commission's referendum, Chairman Whitaker told the Times that he, former commission Chairman Norm Watson and Alderman Goddard went to Victoria Monday, April 4, to discuss the proposal with several provincial government officials. Whitaker noted that the province's recreation facilities fund has l)cen depleted for this year. He said however, that Walter Donald, executive assistant to Recreation Minister Sam Hawlf, told the group he expects new funding legislation, probably in the fall session. Whitaker said the commission's proposals received "a very good reception." He said Donald und oilier provincial officials expressed approval of the thrust of the proposed recreation plan which Includes some 111 projects scattered throughout Uie Peninsula. The officials seemed lo be primarily interested in projects which require physical activity, Whitaker said. "Hut we pointed out the demography of this area, that at least half our people are past the age where they're Interested in skating or swimming or things like that. They want more .sedentary types of recreation. And they (the officials) could .see that." Whitaker said the commission's next step probably will Ih? a series of public meetings beginning in two or three weeks.

Neither occupation, if conscientiously practised, is designed to substantially increase the popularity of the jobholder. In the past six weeks the three Sunshine Coast inspectors have endured the following events: a series of letters, mostly from one irate citizen, complaining about the inspectors' enforcement of the national building code; public statements by Regional Board Chairman Harry Almond accusing the inspection department of pushing people around and acting like a bunch of bureaucrats, and, finally, Almond's decision to create a special committee to give "advice and guidance" to the area directors on interpretation of the code. We find Almond's latter action to ��� be a curiously circuitous way of dealing with the problem, if, indeed, there is a problem. It is not the building code, established to set safety standards in the construction industry, which is being criticised. It is the inspectors. If any of the inspectors is not capable of interpreting the code, he should be discharged and replaced with someone who is. If any of the inspectors is being discourteous or in any way abusive of his authority, he should be' given an opportunity to mend his ways, and, failing that, fired. Almond's committee.is a virtual declaration of non-confidence in the inspection staff. It is not responsive to the complaints, and it is unfair to the inspectors. If the inspectors .are to be continued in the district's employ, they should be supported by the district, not guarded like truant schoolchildren. The building code requires competent and sensible enforcement. It does not require a committee of interpreters. It has also been suggested that if more local builders properly acquainted themselves with the provisions of the code before beginning construction,, intervention by the inspectors would be unnecessary. Dealer's choice If we weren't playing with a- stacked deck, we could almost applaud the latest hand dealt Peninsula residents by the B.C. Ferries Corporation. In a concession to disgruntled local commuters, the government has decided to listen to the people who actually sit in the lineups before finalizing the winter schedule for the Sunshine Coast. That's the good news. The bad news is that what we're being asked to comment on is whether we want our ferry service cut in the morning or in the evening. It's hard to work up much enthusiasm for a choice like that, so you'll pardon us if we're not sufficiently appreciative of this breakthrough into participatory decision-making. By way of justification for the service cut, B.C. Ferries has offered us statistics indicating that the Howe Sound run is carrying only a fraction of the passengers and vehicles it is capable of carrying. You can do a lot of tricks with the right deck of cards. The statistics are arranged to show capacity percentages on a monthly basis only. A more in teresting statistic would be one showing the number of vehicles and passengers on each of the 20-odd daily crossings. But we're really not very keen on engaging on a defensive reshuffling of B.C. Ferries' statistics. There's a slight chance for winning so long as we're playing with their deck. We ought to be about the business of finding ways to improve our ferry system, not negotiating for the least painful deterioration. The apparent agreement last week of the federal government to delcare the B.C. ferry system part of the Trans-Canada Highway network, opening the door to millions of dollars in federal subsidies, might be one avenue to improvement. But we're not overly optimistic considering previous statements of Transport Minister Jack Davis opposing the upgrading of Sunshine Coast service. Amidst all these negative developments, however, we have found a cause for celebration. The members of our local transportation committee continue to challenge the dealer, and if they haven't exactly beat the house yet, no one can fault their effort.

This sad fact recently gained further support when Victoria NDP MLA Cliar.es Harbor provided evidence In the legislature showing that the numl)cr of bankruptcies in British Columbia has risen to a catastrophic level in the past year. A high proportion of these bankruptcies have taken place In one particular type of business: tlio Independently owned (or leased) tjas station. Over the past few years the major oil companies linve taken control of the retail gasoline market. After building company-owned self-service gas stations, these corporations force the Independent station operator out of business. This means that gasoline prices are uo longer dictated by open-market competition but, instead, by the whims of the oil companies themselves. Another negative result of this trend Is that repair facilities are becoming scarce, due to gas station shutdowns. The present government lias continually promised to bring In legislation which would protect the Independent gas retailer. As each week passes without legislative action, more and more gas station operators are being forced out of business.

Editor, The Times: I read with dismay the possibility exists of a mock imitation Spanish villa to be built in lower Gibsons on the main corner! We always worry about Canadian identification because of the U.S.A. influence. Are we to succumb to the Spanish influence as well? The west coast of B.C. has its own special flavour, its own character and its own style of houses and homes. Can one seriously believe that to improve on the liomegrbwn characters of our buildings one has to go-Spanish? Do the Spaniards in their towns feel they can improve the look of the place by,building a mock B.C. west coast house? I'm sure they would laugh at the idea. But here we are in lower Gibsons, one of the unique little fishing villages still relatively unspoilt, so close to the Lower Mainland, thinking we can do better than our forebearers by imitating the designs of an alien culture. Maybe next door we'll have a mock Austrian chalet and next to that a Tahitian grass hut. I do hope we can improve lower Gibsons but by using our own cultural designs and not importing others.

Make a note of the date now: April 28. It is wise to exercise some caution when pricking a new conversational bubble with Maryanne West. There's no telling what may pop out. I have known our energetic columnist for only a few months, so her repertoire may not be quite as extensive as my short acquaintance suggests. But there's no doubt that the lady has her finger into a variety of pies. For instance. Although most of you no doubt are aware of her role as a perceptive and articulate CBC critic, some may not know that she is also our official local weather recorder. - Last week I asked her if in her latter capacity she might not be able to dig back through her weather records and either confirm or refute the common belief that we have just experienced an unusually mild Winter. This she did, with her customary speed and thoroughness, and you'll find the result of her research elsewhere in this issue. Unfortunately, she has been our official recorder only since 1970, and her temperature records do not extend back past that year. Obviously dissatisfied with her records, she decided to supplement them with some additional information. Returning Saturday from an Easter egg hunt at the Welcome Beach Community Center, I found a wonderful, but fairly puzzling, list on my desk. It is a 19-year record which includes such items as First Hummingbird Sighting; Cherry Blossom, Same Tree; Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly out from Hibernation, and Garter Snake out from Hibernation. \ I'm impressed by any sort of sustained effort, and positively floored by the idea of someone meticulously recording all these events for almost two decades. But what does it all mean? "Not much of anything," says Maryanne, noting that these random observations were accumulated in a haphazard and most unscientific fashion. May be, but surely such perserverance By Dennis Fitzgerald deserves some attention. Therefore, for those of you who can appreciate such things: The first noted hummingbird at our Gower Point Road Nature Observatory ranges from an early sighting of March 4 in 1964 to as late as AprU 18 in 1958. Most of the sightings are clustered around the last week of March and the first week of April. Her first sighting this year was April 3. (I notice, however, in Mary Tinley's column this week that Irene Carson of West Sechelt has reported a hujnmingbird sighting on March 23 this year. Bird migration patterns, says Maryanne, are linked to the length of daylight hours rather than to weather patterns, but are obviously affected by weather conditions along migration routes. The first cherry blossom on our subject tree appeared as early as March 28 in 1958. The latest blossoming was April 19 in 1959 and 1964. This year's first blossom popped out on April 6. The cherry blossom ought to give us the best indication of previous weather conditions here, she says. But she also notes that the blossom arrived 10 days later in the' mild winter of 1971-72 than it did in last year's fairly cold winter. So tnat idea's out the window too. What about the butterfly? They're simple-minded fellows and easily fooled, tending to take to the wing on warm winter days. Hence, we have a sighting as early as February 6 in 1973. The latest sighting was April 11 in 1971 and this year's date was March 30. Our gartersnakes could be expected to crawl out of the ground when the earth begins to warm a little, but there is no apparent relationship with the cherry blossoms. The earliest gartersnake sighting was March 11 in both 1974 and 1958. The latest sighting was April 21 in 1963. We're still waiting for the rascal this year, so he apparently hasn't got the message. And that, friends is the top of the news for the week of April 13,1977. Don't say you never learned anything from the Peninsula Times. One man's opinion? By Adrian Stott There is a general restlessness about too much government in Canada: The complaints tend to be strongest at the local level, because local government is the most accessible and the most visible. The SCRD has been a frequent target, so since the best indicator of the amount of government is probably taxation, it seems unwise for the regional district to increase its tax requisitions by 41 per cent in it latest budget. The revenue may be needed, but perhaps the regional board should have budgeted more politically. ' ���. The tax increase is in two parts. There is an average rise in the cost of existing services of only 3.4 per cent, with the rest being added to pay for functions new this year. However, it appears that economies for the public could have been made in both areas. The biggest problem is that several regional functions which could be entirely self-supporting, or at least more nearly so, are not achieving this. Perhaps the most obvious is building inspection, where the tax subsidy is rising from $9,500 to $26,0Qjp. The inspection fee revenue just isn't, keeping up witti the eoists of this department. Since building volumes are down, and show signs of reniaining so, perhaps the regional board should have asked the awkward question of whether there is still enough work for three inspectors. If there is some slack, what a shame that the region could not arrange to do the inspections in Gibsons, as it already does in Sechelt. Gibsons director Metzler apparently suggested this when the village recently changed inspectors, but the council were unconvinced about the economies of cooperation and hired their own man. However, costs aside, it is the owners of new buildings who benefit primarily from this service, so it seems rather unfair that the general public should be presented with a large slice of the bill. Maybe a review of permit fees should have been undertaken, even if only to make sure they keep up with inflation. Community planning is another area with a large increase, 20 per cent. This AM* THESE EXPECTANT faces nre what comes beforo they hand out the prizes at nn Easter egg hunt. The kids are nil Seehelt Elementnry students. I department must depend on general taxation for much of its budget because of its community-wide nature. An increase in ttie charges to those developers , whose projects consume a large proportion ot planning's resources could have been considered, though. Again, this seems only fair and might have made a useful contribution. The major new function is the community use of schools, with taxes of $68,000, or 15 per cent of the total requisition. It obviously makes sense to use these expensive facilities more efficiently ��� and the Pender Harbour High School additions are particularly sensible ��� but why is this such an expensive economy for the ordinary taxpayer? It is one of the few items with no budgeted revenue except taxes. Surely the facilities could be rented for recreation use, so those using them would pay at least some of the price of their fun, with the retirement of the capital spread out a little to wait for this revenue. Recreation is becoming a dangerously expensive item for many local governments, so the board needs to be very careful in this area in future years. There is also the question of whether all the region's services are truly necessary. For example, garbage collection costs up 51 per cent toi $60,000, but there seemed to be very little discussion about whether weekly garbage pickup was really needed or had full public support. The halfway measure of picking iip three cans every two weeks, instead of two per week, was not even considered, I believe. Many small economies might have been made, too which put together could have meant a significant saving. Participation in die Union of B.C. Municipalities cost $2,900, yet this is a municipalities club and seldom produces real benefits for regional districts. Street lighting costs are up 12 per cent, but the reduced costs possible through a change of equipment have not been followed up. Also, some areas are lit up like midways, but have there been checks into whether a repositioning of lights might allow the same illumination with less fixtures? Three hundred dollars was paid for SAM, the provincial junk car crusher, even though a Tacoma company was apparently prepared to provide crushing equipment and buy the metal, at a profit to Uie region. This chance for real recycling, and a proper solution to the junk cor problem, was not pursued. The budget Is by no means all bad. General government taxation has fallen 34 per cent, as administration costs have been divided more fairly among the various functions. The cemeteries have become entirely self-supporting, saving $3,900. Anil our excellent water system continues to pay Its way while providing Improved service at a reasonable charge, which should be a real source of pride to the area. However, in balance, it seems too Imd tliat the board wasn't more careful to keep taxes down this year. An increase as large "as tliat presented suggests It doesn't care about the public's feelings. I know this is not tho case In fact, but this sort of budget will only worsen the already bad image of the board, and so reduce its effectiveness. That result should Ih; of concern to everyone, public? and regional director alike.

Deris Edwardson 883-2308 that there is only 9.7 miles of construction, $1.5 million per mile to build it, and $10 million would cover it. But my guess is we won't get any action until another election, then maybe they will fight over it. The Peninsula Times Page A-3 Wednesday, April 13,1977 MORE ABOUT, ..'.; ���Recreation plans ���From Page A-l and then to Victoria for approval probably will take about three months, Early July would be the soonest the referndum might be held, he said. Current plans call for seeking a two mill recreation tax levy, the maximum allowable, Excluding Gibsons, which is not now a member of the recreation function, this would produce an estimated annual revenue of $146,000 a year, based on an assessment of $73 million. If Gibsons joins the plan, it would pay in an additional estimated $14,000 a year., based on an assessment of $7 million for the village. > In a related recreation matter, Shirley Vader,- president of a Pender Harbour committee seeking a swimming pool for that area, said she hopes to have some indication in "two or three weeks" about possible Ministry of Education funding for construction of that pool. A meeting to discuss the project is being arranged between representatives of the ministry, the local school district and the Pender Harbour committee, she said.

WATiRS cliamJ' At a meeting April 3 at the Welcome Beach Hall, the Fire Committee gave an ^ encouraging report to residents regarding progress in setting up a volunteer fire department and held out hopes of having it in operation by September. Chairman Patrick Murphy said how fortunate the committee has been in finding men; with the specialized knowledge and experience necessary for such a task. He paid tribute to George Murray who is in charge of Uie building of the fire hall and Bob Paulhus, an employee of B.C. Hydro who is in Charge of volunteers. He asked for a special vote of thanks to Roy Hill, a former fire captain of Vancouver ^and Gerry Harrington, assistant to the West Vancouver Fire Marshall, who drew up specifications for equipment. They made an intensive study of what is needed on the fire truck and this entailed a great deal of time and patience. The committee, he said, had decided against the mini-pumper in favour of a truck only slightly larger, but approved by the insurance people. This, he said, would mean an insurance break for all property owners in the district. The purchase was approved by the Regional Board and the order has been placed for delivery in four to five months. The company supplying the truck submitted the lowest bid and has the extra advantage of being a local firm based in Abbotsford, which the committee considered to be a definite asset. It has.not yet been possible to finalize arrangements for a lot for the firehall. The property at Halfmoon Bay near the junction of the Redrooffs Road and the highway, which seems most desirable from the point of accessibility, is still tied up in litigation, but the Regional Board has requested the advantage of being precisely in the middle of the district, which covers the area from Wood Bay to Bayview. As an alternative, MacMillan Bloedel has been approached regarding a lot on their subdivision near the end of the Redroofs Road. George Murray has been in negotiation with Manpower regarding the labour for building the firehall. The present plan is to use unemployed men whose wages would be subsidized under a Canada Works Programme. The committee has received verbal assurance of a grant to cover this work, but under the terms of the grant, the project must be started by August 4. For reasons of economy it has been agreed to build the* fire hall of frame construction. Mr. Murray is still looking for volunteer electricians and plumbers, SUNSHINE COAST REGIONAL DISTRICT Notice of Public Hearing Amendment to Land Use Regulation By-law 96 Pursuant to Section 703 of the Municipal Act, a public hearing will be held to consider Bylaw 96.16, a bylaw to amend Sunshine Coast Regional District Land Use Regulation Bylaw No. 96, 1974. All persons who deem, their interest in property affected by the proposed bylaw shall be afforded an opportunity to be heard on matters contained in the bylaw. Bylaw 96.16 would place a portion of D.L. 3956, Lot V, Plan 2909, in Kleindale, in an Industrial 1 zone to accommodate a small light industrial park. The hearing will be held in the Community Hall, Madeira Park, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 26, 1977. The above is a synopsis of Bylaw 96.16 and is not deemed to be an interpretation of the bylaw. The bylaw may be inspected at the Regional District Offices, 1248 Wharf Street, Sechelt, during office hours, namely Monday to Wednesday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Thursday and Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. Sunshine Coast Regional District Box 800, Sechelt, B.C. VON 3A0 885-2261 (Mrs.) A.G. Pressley Sec reta ry-Trea su rer not so much to do the work as to supervise and advise. It will also be necessary to hire a project manager to head the building program. Bob Paulhus has compiled a list of 33 volunteer fire fighters, with an average age of 35. The chairman suggested that initially it will probably be possible to have only two satellite stations at the extreme ends of the district, but that the long term plan is for satellite Stations at several other spots such as Secret Cove, Brooks Bay and Welcome Woods. He advised that MacMillan Bloedel had offered the committee the use of their trailer tank which can be towed to the scene of a fire. It holds 300 gallons of water and carries 400 feet of snakeskin hose, of a lightweight,synthetic material. Joan Clarkson reminded the committee that first aid is a vital part of a firefighter's training and offered her services as instructor. Joan and Ken Clarkson also advised that the ambulance will be transferred to Sechelt May 1 and WM�� m** Date Pad Apr. 13 ��� Wilson Creek & Davis Bay Teenagers ��� Ideas needed for spring activities.

Among long term plans discussed were home inspection and the instruction of residents in the operation of fire extinguishers. It was considered that it might be advisable to buy fire extinguishers in large quantities for resale to residents. Alex Ellis, who expressed the feeling of the meeting that the project was in very good hands, moved a vote of thanks to the committee for all the hard work which has gone into it. A vote of thanks was also given to the Clarksons for their generous and helpful cooperation. Perform a death-defying act. Have your blood pressure checked.

The men's club bonspiel saw the Brian Gilchrist rink take top honors in the A event defeating Dennis Suveges. In theB event it was Dave Gant over Ron Baba, and the C event went to Art Crace when he defeated the John Rezansoff rink.

The Tuesday night men's league was won by the Art Craze rink, and Wednesday's mixed went to John Kirstiuk and company. Thursday and Friday night mixed leagues were taken by the Nicholas rink and the Michaud rink respectively. The over-all league winners were the Gilchrist rink in the mixed league, Pajak in the men's league, Walt Nygren in the senior division, and Nora Solinsky took two honors in the ladies division. The club would like to thank Bernice Chamberlin and Dierdre Pearson for co- chairing the refreshment committee during the season. It is a big task to undertake and these gals, along with countless volunteers, did ,a tremendous job. Our thanks also to Art Craze for the many hours he put into organizing the draws for the club men's and mixed bonspiels. The well-organized ladies' league has alreuayrtfcMed il> oldtti ol "officers for next season. Marlene Doran is the new president, Judy Frampton is vice- president, and Gladys Elson takes over as secretary-treasurer. May 4 has been set as the date of the annual general meeting.

Ruth Forrester reports that she was feeding a hummingbird some days before April 2 and Irene Carson of West Sechelt, who keeps meticulous records of the arrival and departure of migratory birds, reports the arrival of a male Rufous on March 23 followed by a number of females a few days later. She already has five feeders in use and at the peak of the season, may be feeding as many as 200 birds. Mrs. Carson reports that she has been feeding four or five greyish coloured, purple throated hummingbirds all winter and, in fact, one of them has been a regular customer at her feeders for six years. She has discovered that the birds are very partial to slaked lime, but she suggests that it should be put on raised boards and not on the ground where the birds would become an easy prey to cats. High score winners of the whist drive at the Welcome Beach Hall on April 2 were Mary Tinkley and George Murray. There will be no whist drive in May because of the plant sale planned for the afternoon of May 7. Back at Redrooffs with a becoming tan is Don Ross who has been spending the winter at Waikiki Beach. Those of our readers who are planning to entertain visitors from far-away places this summer and who intend to show them the beauty spots of the Sunshine Coast, might be interested to know some of the history behind the romantic place names of our coast. So, as there is not much local news this week, and following a suggestion from Bill Dolmage who supplied some interesting data on the subject, here is a little of the history behind some Sunshine Coast names In 1791, the British government sent Captain George Vancouver to make an accurate survey of the North Pacific coast and to seek a waterway from the Pacific to the Atlantic. He spent three years on the coast, circumventing Vancouver Island and exploring the inlets of the mainland. Meanwhile, Europe was in a state of turmoil, with the outbreak of the French revolution, the execution of the French king, Louis XVI, and the declaration of war by France on England and Holland. In 1794, the British Navy, under the command of First Lord of the Admiralty, Earl Richard Howe, inflicted a crushing defeat on the French in a battle off Brest, in which six of the French ships were taken. The battle, as far as we have been able to trace, has no name, but is referred to in all records as the "Glorious First of June." One can imagine Captain Van- Page A-6 The Peninsula Times Wednesday. April 13, 1977 Pasley and HMS Britannia gave its name to Britannia Beach. At the northern end of the Sechelt Peninsula, Lord Nelson is commemorated by Nelson Island and nearby Hardy Island is named for Sir Thomas Hardy in whose arms Nelson died during the battle of Trafalgar. There is a Victory Mountain close by, named for Nelson's ship. It was in a lighter vein that Captain Richards and his survey crew named surveying the B.C. coast in" HM Survey many of the places around Halfmoon Bay. Ship Plumper, and it was he who gave to HM Survey Ship Plumper was anchored in our local islands and waterways names a pleasant bay when a supply ship reached ���by Maty Tinkta* couver exploring the grandeur of ouri lovely waterways, perhaps on one of these unforgettable days when the water sparkles in the sunshine and the snow-clad mountains are backed by a cloudless blue sky. He would want for such a waterway the proudest and grandest name, so he named it Howe Sound. In 1859, Captain George Richards was which are now household words to us. He named Coal Harbour in Vancouver when a seam of coal was found at the foot of Bute Street. When he was surveying Howe Sound, he continued the tradition started by Captain Vancouver and named the islands, channels and points after the famous naval men who had taken part in the "Glorious First of June" battle. Bowen Island was named after Admiral James Bowen, master of the flagship in that historic encounter, and Admiral Bowen's ship gave its name to Queen Charlotte Channel. Two of the points on Bowen Island, Point Hood and Cape Roger Curtis, are named after.Admiral Lord Hood and Admiral Sir Roger Curtis, flag captain to Lord Howe. Gambier Island took its name from Admiral Lord James Gambier and Collingwood Channel from Lord Cuthbert Collingwood who not only took part in the '"Glorious First of June" but was second in command to Lord Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar. Bowyer Island and Barfleur Passage commemorate the names of Admiral Sir George Bowyer and his flagship, HMS Barfleur. Another Howe Sound island was named after Sir Richard Keats, lieutenant in HMS Ramillies under Captain James Montagu, which explains the naming of Ramillies and Montague Channels, Pasley Island was named after Admiral Sir Thomas her with a batch of mail from home. The mail contained news of the results of the , Derby, one of England's most popular horse races held at Epsom race course in June each year. The race had been won by a horse called Thormanby, with Buccaneer as runner-up. It was indeed welcome news, for many of the crew had money on Thormanby, so they promptly gave the name to the island where they were anchored. The bay, with its sandy beaches and .sheltered anchorage they named Buccanner Bay. They named the small island on the far side of Halfmoon Bay "Merry Island" after the owner of Thormanby. Because they had received such welcome news there, they named the narrow pass between Thormany Island and the mainland "Welcome Pass". Other points named, Epsom Point, Derby Point, Oaks Point and Tattenham Ledge, are all names associated with English race courses. Halfmoon Bay as a place name came into use much later. The first post office in the bay was named "Welcome Pass." They bay was surveyed in 1910 and the name "Half-moon Bay" first appeared on Admiralty Chart No. 2078 published in 1912. The spelling was changed during the , next few years and the name of the post office was officiary changed to "Halfmoon Bay Post Office" in January 1915.

Easier eggs. . . ,. , The hunt was held April 9 at the Welcome Beach Hall with 36 children age 12 and under participating. Five and unders got first crack at egg finding, followed by the older children. Then the real hunt was on with a free-for- all as each group was allowed only one nest first time around. While the unters enjoyed hot dogs and cold drinks, the judges were busy choosing the winners of the decorated egg contest. Judges were Kay Dombroski, the local school board representative, Al Markle, a visiting grandfather from Manitoba, and George Murray, president of the Welcome Beach Community Assn. They found it quite a challenge to pick the winners from all the entries. The egg beaters were, in the young group: funniest, Deanna Nygard; decorative, Lorraine North; most original, Stephan Hawes. The middle group winners: funniest, Kirby North; decorative, Erin Kelly; most original, Sonja Sorensen. The oldest group: funniest, Margaret Connor; decorative, Susan Perry; most original, Hannah Anthony. Two extra awards for runners up were given, one to Kenny Sorensen for original and Billy Trousdell for decorative. Teenage helpers were Mary Connor, Garnet Kieselbach and Kitn Tnber. They bid the eggs, which were made up in .saran wrap bundles, great forsiglit by convenors Mnriu Paulhus and .lerry-Ixm Wickwire. The teenagers lined up the eggs for Judging, assisted Kay Dombroskl as she presented the prizes, entertained the tots and were a big help all around.

Reid made the announcement at the association's April 6 meeting at the Dogwood Cafe. He said that under the terms of their charter the group was responsible for. "Encouraging and promoting commercial enterprises in the harbour area" through special events and group advertising. Reid also advised the village merchants to re-elect their executive, a move that will be taken at their meeting on April 20. - Also to be discussed at next week's meeting is a proposal for a community study of the harbour area. Bob Fidelman, a partner in Integrated Design Services, told the meeting Gibsons council had been approached with the idea and had referred the concept to its planning committee; "There's never been any determination of what people want the village to be," Fidelman explained, saying such a study "would determine the character of the village for the future." Some members of the association expressed reservations toward the idea if it meant spending a great deal of money. The association has still to decide on the winner of its recent logo design contest. Twenty-one were submitted and merchants are to be canvassed this week as to a final choice. Association President Bill Edney, noting that a chamber of commerce had been restarted in Gibsons, said he hoped the two organizations could work together ( Maintaining there had been some doujbt;- about the initial survival of the GHBA Edney said, "We have taken it easy, taken it slow, taken the time to get to know each other. In my estimation this grpup has come as far or farther than any business association in this community." The Langdale Queen, which served the Sunshine Coast until last September, is soon to become a unique part of downtown Vancouver. Earlier this month the provincial government announced it had sold the 74- year-old ferry for $50,000 to Granson Yacht Charters Ltd. Company President Vern Granberg says $250,000 will be spent to restore the boat to is "original form". After the refit is complete the Langdale Queen will be anchored just west of the Air West harbour terminal. There it will provide a variety of . facilities for city residents, including locker rooms and a machine shop for use on a non-profit basis by pensioners and retired mariners. Their work, according to Granberg, will be such maritime orientated jobs as repainting hulls and overhauling engines. Each worker would be able to supplement his pension by up to $120 a month and there are plans to set up an apprenticeship program for students who could learn a trade from the retired workers. "The pensioners' programs arose," Granberg said, "because there are a lot of retired gentlemen out there with a lot of valuable skills. This way they'll have a place to come to and practice skills they've used all their lives. And they'll be able to pass them onto the kids who apprentice with them." Granberg said the innovative program was one of the reasons his bid for the vessel was accepted, even though it was the second highest. A large conference room capable of accommodating 120 people will also be part of the hew Langdale Queen. Maritime organizations will be given first pick of available dates and the room will be provided to non-profit groups at no charge. The remaining 10,000 square feet will be used either as commercial space or a restaurant, Granberg said. After announcement of the sale, Ken Stratford, traffic manager for B.C. Ferries, revealed the acceptance of the highest bid would have meant the Langdale Queen being turned into scrap. "But we didn't want to see her turned into scrap because of ,her maritime history andGranberg's ideas were so good we just decided to give it to him,'' Stratford said. We have a good choice of excellent quality brass items for the collectors, come in and browse anytime. ���Miss Bee's Sechelt.

Hi, square dancers. We'd been in Honolulu about ten days enjoying the beautiful balmy air and lovely warm waters 72 degrees, when we thought we'd try to find out where we could square dance, s& enquired at thtj Chamber of Commerce and they gave us a pamphlet which listed no less than nine square dance clubs and four round dance clubs scattered all over the island, as well as some on the outer islands. One of the joys of square dancing is that you can find enjoyment and friends wherever you go in the world. Anyway we chose the one that seemed nearest us, The Diamond Heads'n Sides and found everyone there nice and friendly, the calling good. So we went there every Friday. The bus ride there is very scenic and like all bus rides in Honolulu cost 25 cents. The caller, Jim Jenkins, a nice young fellow, keeps up with the new calls and really keeps things going at a good clip. The club .is small but very enthusiastic and their numbers are swelled each week by visiting tourists coming irom far and wide, places like Alaska, Florida and even Japan where they are taught all the calls in English but they can't speak a word of it. Try and figure that one out. The Kahala Recreation Center where these dances are held is full on dance nights, but is open air so dancing is pleasant even in Hawaii's summer climate. We found there was round dancing at the same hall every Sunday so we attended these classes too. The teacher, Mary Jane Falk, formerly from Palm Springs, California, is toj>s and also keeps . things going, is very friendly and patient. These are qualities much needed for this type of recreation. By the way, Mary Jane has composed a very good round dance, Little Wahine, both the name and routine of which is fitting to the Islands. A good percentage of the members of her classes were Oriental, all very good dancers, both No matter what shape you're in, you s^l >*% can be in shape. PdRTICIPDCTIOM The Canadian movement kw personal fitness Fitness. In vour heart you know ifs right. BY MAURICE HEMSTREET round and ballroom, also very keen to learn and easy to teach and all very, very nice to us; We attended three days of Hawaii's 13th Annual square dance convention in Honolulu in the gigantic Blaisdell Center. There were round dance clinics with Anita and Leroy Stark from Tucson, Arizona, and workshops with Bill Peters and Ray Bohn, both top notch callers from the United Stat.es. They called for two nights of the festival with local callers Bud Garrett M.C. (also an excellent caller) and a panel of local callers for the trail in and final nights. They were all great callers. There was a display of round dancing done by a precision team, all Orientals who were perfection all thru. We attended the after party on the Saturday night which was extra special, first a delicious supper and then Hawaiian entertainment put on by a group of teenagers 15 to 18 years of age, The Makaha singers and dancers all natives. Imagine, two and half hours of dancing with many changes and types of Polynesian dancing and singing. This group has travelled over much Of the U.S. and are a credit to the Island, full of the vigour of youth and just a joy to. watch. This group as well as so many other ^activities are sponsored by The Honolulu Recreation Association. The square dance and round dancing continued till 3 a.m. and the next afternoon most of the dancers were on deck again for the work shops and evening dancing so the enthusiasm for square and round dancing is very much alive in Hawaii oh the outer islands as well as Oahu and as we have experienced, visitors are made so-o-o-o welcome and we thank you all. Well, Mary, the moral of the story is that if you belong to square dancing you will have friends all over the world and I thank you.Mary and Jim Wardrop for bringing this picture of a fantastic trip home to us. The Sunshine Coast Country Stars and many other square dancers appreciate your everlasting efforts. Again, thank you. Last Friday night our guest was none other than Cathy Berry from Vancouver who gets up here once in a while to show us how to square dance. Come again soon. By the time you have read this column we will have been to Powell River to help with a graduation class so be nice to me, buy a Pen Times and find out how we made out first hand, have a good day and happy square dancing. See next week's Peninsula Times for the news of our square dancing trip to Powell River. The way to become a hero in Gibsons, according to l^year-old James Stew, is to knock over a stop sign- Such valour, however, cost Stew his driver's license and resulted in a stern lecture from Judge Ian Walker in provincial court last week. Stew was charged with, mischief and wilfuldamage after the RCMP discovered a stop sign at the corner of Reed and North roads has been overturned by a vehicle just after midnight on February 19. The tire treads on the youth's Valiant matched the tracks at the scene and the car bore traces of both wood and paint, according to the police. Asked at the time why he had done the damage Stew reportedly replied: "I knew it was wrong, but I felFif I did it'i would be a hero." On Wednesday Judge Walker was told by Stew that he had knocked over the post to impress his friends and when stopped by the police was about to return and repair the sign. Walker, after delivering his views on such "pranks", gave Stew a six month conditional discharge. He was ordered hot to drive a motor vehicle during this period, to perform 20 hours of unpaid community servile and to pay restitution of $25.50 to the Department of Highways for the sign. A second person, charged jointly with Stew, had his case dismissed by the court for lack of evidence. A Madeira Park man was convicted of impaired driving last week ih what his lawyer described as an "unusual" case. Harold Clay, 24, was charged on March 5 after he was stopped in Pender Harbour by the RCMP and given a breathalyzer test Which resulted in readings of .22 and .23. . Crown counsel Robert Gourlay told the court Clay had been warned by a police at the Pender Harbour Hotel to have a friend give him a lift home, but at 1:45 a.m. the accused was seen driving to his House. Clay complained to the police when booked that "I think it's unfair. I drive to Gibsons every day; I drive 100 feet and I get arrested." Robert Reid, Clay's defence lawyer, said the accused had been drinking at a Roberts Creek Auxiliary lists dates to remember On the lovely spring evening of Wednesday, April 6, the Roberts Creek Hospital Auxiliary held its usual monthly meeting. President Wilma Rodgers asked everyone to take note of dates for coming special events. One event which will be particularly enjoyed the annual Friendship Tea, this year given April 21, by the Sechelt Hospital Auxiliary, at which all six hospital auxiliaries have the opportunity to pause a while and enjoy the friendship of their fellow auxilians. The group also received a warm invitation from Nick Vucurevich, hospital administrator, on behalf of all his staff to a "Thank You" Tea in June, at which time auxiliary members of 10 years standing will be honoured. It is a pleasure once in a while to have the opportunity to min.gle with the hospital staff and get to know each other a little better. The annual Provincial Convention will be held in May, but it was agreed that the Roberts Creek Auxiliary should not be represented this year. Miss Chris Ward, President of the Coordinating Council, will be the voting delegate for the local auxiliaries and it was felt the report, she will subsequently present to each auxiliary will be more than adequate. Two donations were received for our Memorial Fund in memory of Mrs. Mary Jonvick. Members agreed that this fund should be used to provide a new book and magazine rack for the first floor lounge. The auxiliary recently purchased two small electric ice crushers and Mrs. Rodgers brought one along, so that we could see how it worked. They should prove a comfort to post-operative patients. The auxiliary has been asked to cater to a dinner May 7 and members quickly volunteered their services. In-hospital volunteers have been active during the past month in the gift shop, physiotherapy department and library, whilst, as always, the Thrift Shop workers continue to do a grand job, helping the hospital and public aUke. An opportunity is coming for the public to show appreciation to medical staffs. The Red Cross in conjunction with the hopistal volunteers will be be holding a Blood Donor Clinic at the hospital April 28 between 2 and 7 p.m. Please read the posters for further information. At St. Mary's more blood is used than is donated here, so let's see what we can do about this. The meeting concluded With the presentation of an Auxiliary spoon to Mrs. Dolly Koehler, who will be shortly leaving the area. Dolly has been an active member and with her sunny disposition she will be missed by us all. A social half hour followed with delicious refreshments party and had then gone to the hotel where a case of beer he purchased was confiscated by police as Clay's wife was under age. ���>��� Clay was then given a lift to the Royal Bank in Madeira Park where he picked up his own car. Reid stated it was less than 100 yards to Clay's home from the bank. "The accused had good intent when he had a friend drive him in his car, " claimed Reid. In sentencing Clay, the judge agreed that he was driving "in a sense^by a fluke" but noted his blood alcohol reading was nearly three times the allowable limit. Clay was finnd $150 and had his licence suspended for three months. In the second drinking and driving charge to come before the court on April 6, Thomas Ritchie was found guilty of driving with a blood alcohol reading of over 0.8. Sechelt RCMP charged the 53-year-old millworker after his car went through the flashing red light in the village at 1:25 a.m. on March 30. A breathalyzer demand brought readings of .16 and .17. Ritchie, who said he thought he was " fairly sober at the time'', informed Judge Walker he had drunk six bottles of beer at the Legion earlier that evening. He admitted to a previous over 0.8 conviction in 1972. Before sentencing Ritchie, the judge read out the section of the criminal code dealing with second offences for drinking and driving which includes provisions for jailing the offender. "These heavy sen tences," Ritchie was told, "should make you realize how seriously parliament regards these offences." Ritchie was then fined $500 and had his license suspended for three months. He was warned by the judge that his drinking was "no joking matter" and a further conviction would probably send him to jail. A transient from Ontario was given six months' unsupervised probation in the first shoplifting charge ever brought by the owners of Big Mac's Sujjerett in Sechelt. Nancy Anne St. Louis, 27, was convicted of stealing items from the store on March 6 of this year.

GAIHERCOIF, 086-2705, Seniors trim events for summer By ROBERT FOXALL Two important items came out of the Senior Citizens Association Executive meeting April 4. The last session of carpet bowling was scheduled for April 11, and the last session of dancing until after the summer recess was set for Wednesday, April 13. Elizabeth Derby reported that all convenors had been appointed for the aSpring Tea and Plant Sale on April 23 and that arrangements were well in hand. It will be possible to get into the hall on the evening of April 22 and also the morning of the 23 to bring in materials with the opening to be 2 p.m. The executive decided to revert to the old practice of holding their meetings on the morning of the first Monday in the month, so the next regular executive meeting will be held at 10 a.m. May 2. Elizabeth Derby reported for the New Horizons Committee that the sewing machine had been received as had material for tablecloths. Now what is required is volunteers to do the necessary sewing. Undoubtedly "these will be forthcoming as soon as the need is known. Jim Derby also reported that work on fitting up the craft room was well in hand, but again volunteers are needed, to' do some painting. Here again I expect to find that these have been found. If not, we will' soon find them at the monthly meeting April 21. Dave Hay ward advised he had not been able to settle a date for the proposed trip to Mission for the Daffodil Fields but expected to have information for our monthly meeting April 21. We have an invitation to visit Port Moody May 26 for a return of the visit a busload made here last year. Be sure and attend the April meeting to get your name down for this trip. You will also get further details about the Portland trip which will be taken care of by Mr. and Mrs. Bill Scott while Dave and Eva are away on a trip to England. Dave will also announce the establishment of a photography contest to take place after the summer recess, with June 1 being the starting date. The big event of the week, of course, was the celebration of their Golden Wedding Anniversary by Jim and Elisabeth Derby. A great number of our members attended the reception to wish them much future happiness. YOUNG ISAM WALJI is alive today because of the efforts of volunteer blood donors. Parents Dean and Nigar Walji of Burnaby are finding it pleasurably difficult to keep up with their active youngster since his heart surgery last spring. A blood donor clinic will be held at St. Mary's Hospital in Sechelt Thursday, April 28, from 2 to 7 p.m. Volunteer donors are encouraged to attend.

The Beachcombers arrive By KERRA LOCKHART How can you tell when the Beachcombers are back in town? Strange events suddenly start occuring on the Gibsons wharf. We missed the historic meeting recently of the King of Kensington ��� and the Celebrity Chef, but one warm, soft evening last week we were invited- to a media event. When we arrived, anxiously twiddling with our camera light meter in the rapidly fading sunlight, it was to find a suspicious number of preteens strolling around, the dock taking great interest in the fishing trawlers at the precise moment they should have been home with their peanut butter sandwiches parked in front of Mary Hartman, Twice. From Roberts Creek to Langdale they had been summoned by the school grapevine: "Hey, is there really a cougar arriving tonight?" And so they came to find out and they weren't disappointed. Because there wasn't just one cougar; two of the graceful animals were landed at the wharf, returned from a day's filming on Ragged Island, around back of Keats. They had been part of the conventional West Coast script. Two girls trapped on an island are stalked by a cougar until, retreating to the water's edge, they are rescued at the last moment by a well- timed boat. But while the kids on the wK3rf were not particularly interested in what the. cougars do for national prime timve TV they were fascinated by the quiet animals in their cages. Sitting on surrounding pilings, they watched with excitement and slight awe as one of the cats and a potential scene stealer, a charming racoon, were removed from the boat and placed into the back of a parked pickup truck. Then they tensed and drew together as Peter, a three-year-old cougar, was released from his captivity, After a quick circling pace the cat stretched along the planks, reacting only when chunks of raw meat were thrown to him by a trainer. . The children jumped onto the boat behind the animal, posing for three photographers, but the cougar, disturbed by the movement and the cameras became restless, growled lightly and was comforted by his handler, a man protective of the cat; a little defensive towards the crowd of sightseers. . Peter was returned to his cage, the 20 minute show was over, but the children hung around just, a little longer. It was, they decided, worth missing supper for. As for myself, I discovered something that until now I had taken as part of the- folklore of the CBC. But it's really true. No matter how far you venture from the red gothic pile of Toronto's Jarvis Street, you can always find one crew member in a Pierre Cardin suit: Focus on Fitness The backbone of America is crumbling. Today North Americans are streaming into chiropractic offices frying to relieve the nagging pain of backaches. Back injuries are becoming more prevalent in the 70's than in the past. The frightening thing is that it is not restricted to older people. There are numerous causes for injuries to the spine, but two of the more frequent are lack of knowledge on how to properly lift heavy objects and inadequate strength and flexibility in the lower back and abdominal muscles. Both are preventable with a little care and respect for the spine. The spinal column is an amazing piece of machinery. It is extremely flexible, allowing us to bend in all directions, even spirally. Its main function i�� to provide housing for the spinal cord, the meeting place of thousands of nerves. If the vital housing is broken or disturbed in any way one can imagine the pain of pinching the vulnerable nerves underneath. Pride has played a part in many back injuries. Lifting a weight by oneself that should be lifted by three persons is not common sense but self destruction. When lifting any object use your legs for the strength, keeping your back straight. Never turn abruptly when carrying heavy objects. No object of any weight can be lifted it the muscles are not there to support it. Today with all our convenience appliances for in and out of doors our bodies often do not develop a working strength. The abdominal and lower back muscles form a base for the spinal column. When a house has a good foundation it can stand up to most wear and tear. The same is true of the spine. Try doing 15 sit-ups by hooking your feet under a couch, or having a friend hold them for you. If you can do it without much strain, then your body is likely to be able to meet most demands you put on it. If you cannot do 15 then it's time to start working on yourself. You may feel perfectly capably of functioning in your present physical condition, but it's the exception that injures so many backs. Carrying that extra suitcase so you only have to make one trip. Lifting the boat instead pf wating for a friend to help. Rearranging the living room furniture before your husband gets home. People under 40 are the most vulnerable. Because they are younger, they feel able to accomplish more. But if the muscles are not developed, the age makes no difference. Try the sit-up test and see how you do. Give yourself a chance.

The Battle of Midway occurred in June 1942, six months after the catastrophic blow to the U.S. Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor, when it appeared that nothing could stop the Japanese Navy's expansion in the Pacific. Admiral Isordku Yamamoto, the brilliant Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Combined Fleet, designed the attack on Midway to precipitate a .showdown battle with the weakened U.S. Pacific Fleet. The American high command was informed of the plan when the U.S. Navy's Combat Intelligence Unit at Pearl Harbor, under Cdr. Jospehy Rochefort, monitored and decoded Japanese secret messages nbout Objective 'AF".

In the process it has been cultured and hybridized so that how there are dozens of varieties with differing qualities of appeal. But no matter what the type, all tomato plants demand the same kind of basic treatment, and the chief ingredient is warmth ��� sunshine warmth, preferably. So if tomatoes are in your plans this summer, first be sure you have a warm, sunny spot. Since warmth is a special requirement, there is no point whatever in setting out plants before the soil has warmed up and the nights will not cool off. In this part of the world this is often not until the third week of May. Starting tomatoes from seed indoors is quite possible but the possibility must be fadfed that there will not be enough time for them to mature before the change in the season stops all growth. Established plants can of course be started under glass much earlier.but the hardening off process must of necessity be very carefully done before setting them out. Tomato plants come in two shapes, the bush and the single stem that require staking. Generally the bush type bears more fruit but it is smaller in size. Recommended varieties of bush growing plants are Early Chatham and Victor, both time tested for reliability and all round satisfaction. They take about 60 days to mature. Of the staking type, which is probably the most popular for the garden since it takes up less room, Sutton's Best- Of-All and Stokesdale are two that get the expert's nod. They need 70 days to,, fulfill their mission in life. Bush varieties need to be set about three feet apart and the staked kind about 18 inches. The growing medium must be as good as you can make it, kept moist and loamy in texture. But, and it's a very big but, top watering is or can be disastrous. So the best plan is to provide overhead shelter such as a roof overhand that does not shut out the sun. One very successful gardener growing staked tomatoes used a movable plastic "roof that was* raised as the plants grew taller. Don't use lime. Tomatoes, like potatoes to which they are related, do not appreciate an alkaline soil. They should be set deep, down to the first leaf as they root freely from the stem buried in the soil. When they have produced five trusses (the branches from the main stem) pinch off the tops to force the maturing development. And most important of all, carry out continuous pruning while the plants are growing by pinching out the little leafy growths that appear Ipetween the main stem and the fruit trusses. If this is not done you will find yourself with,a huge tomato tree and very little fruit. At blossom time a fruit setting hormone spray will ensure the minimum of falling blossom and so the maximum of fruit. Vine ripined tomatoes make the most luscious eating, particularly if eaten like an apple straight from the tree and soaked right through with the warmth of the sunshine, but the period when this can be enjoyed is often limited and the fall weather is upon us while the fruit is still green, When you are sure that it has gone as far as it can go on the vine, pick it and take it indoors where the ripening will continue with little attention needed. Some people like to wrap each tomatoe in newspaper and set it in a dark cupboard, .some like to line them up on window sills.

Emily had won an invitation to Bob Pye's CKWX Easter Hat parade luncheon at the Panorama Room of the Hotel Vancouver. Participation included bringing a friend. She took Lenore Nygren, each wearing their own hat creations. Emily fixed a straw bonnet purchased in San Francisco. Lenore's was a gorgeous pink, paper flower creation. They didn't win any awards, but the TV camera picked them out for that evening's news, so that could be classed as honorable mention. One of the winning bonnets was made out of bread dough in the shape of a basket with eggs. Another very simply done one was a straw hat with two live ducklings sitting on top with a veil overall. Phyl and Elsie Nicholson with Heather and Jimmy took advantage of the spring break for a trip to San Francisco to visit their friends Bonnie and Eric Paetkau.
