He was brought-up in the Gulf Islands and as a youth had a great love of the sea and its associations. He was a pioneer on the BC Coast, building up a business in marine towing and salvage, in ^hich he was ably assisted by his wife Ida and family members. Captain Higgs received an honourary lifetime membership in the Canadian Merchant Service Guild and he was also a member of: The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers; The Company of Master Mariners of Canada; The Nautical Institute of London, England and he was active in the Sea Cadet movement in British Columbia. For the past 20 years Captain Higgs devoted his special talents towards the safety of life at sea, in particular to the design of radio distress frequency buoys and survival vehicles. This ceaseless effort improved and is still improving the chances of survival for crews of sinking vessels. He spent much time and respuirces; trying to persuade various governments to adopt better life saving equipment. In 1984 Captain Higgs was presented with the Rear Admiral Halet G. 'Sheppard Award' for achievement in Merchant Marine Safety. This award is administered by the American Bureau of Shipping in New York. Captain Higgs was honoured with a Fellowship from the Nautical Institute of London, England and received special recognition in Germany from the Nautical Association of Seamen. Captain Higgs and Ida took up residence in Gibsons in the 196��'s. Along with his already heavy workload and travel commitments he took on, for 15 years, the coordinating and administering of Mariners' Rest, an Islet four miles north of Gibsons in Thornborough Channel adjacent to Gambier Island which is the only official sea burial marker in the waters of BC sanctioned hy government. The Higgs' home was always the hub of activity, with ongoing projects, correspondence and consultations that were felt world-wide through all aspects of marine safety.

The Sunshine Published on the Sunshine Coast 25s per copy on news stands 'Economic viability' the theme Fish farmers hold fifth annual conference The Sunshine Coast Aquaculture Association (SCAA) will be holding its fifth International Conference and Trade Show in Sechelt this year from September 5 to 8 and will -centre on 'The Economic Viability of Aqualculture in BC BC Minister of Agriculture and ��� Fisheries John Savage will give the opening address. Approximately" 400 delegates from- overseas, the United States and Canada are expected to attend the conference and the trade show will consist of more than 75 exhibitors. Most of the suppliers present will be from yBC although there will be some , representation from Europe and the United States. In addition, the SCAA is organizing various field trips to various finfish arid shellfish operations on the Coast as well as tours to a hatchery. This year's theme for the conference was chosen, the SCAA states, because, "during the past five years the number of aquaculture concerns has increased substantially. "As the industry grows, suc cess is becoming more dependent on the need to improve the marketing of the product and also the much-needed financial assistance." While addressing various topics related to the further increase of farmed products, there will be a session defining the importance of research arid development in aquaculture. It is hoped the conference will provide both a stimulating forum and the opportunity for everyone involved to share ideas pertaining to the aquaculture industry. On its debut in Sechelt in 1984, the conference attracted 80 delegates with half those participating coming from outside BC. In the following years, the SCAA says, this event has improved in both quantity and quality, "making it a major international conference and trade show." "The demand for fish and fish products is rising as the understanding of the importance of fish as a source of protein grows," the SCAA states. "Nutrition experts advocate eating more fish, linking it to beneficial long term health. As a result, fish consumption is increasing rapidly which means fish farming is growing in importance throughout the world. "It is quite clear that the Sunshine Coast has played a major role in the establishment of fish farming in BC." / Y ' ��� Throughout the history of the conference and trade shows put oh by the SCAA, the-government of BC has been'extremely supportive with the Kfliriistry of Agriculture and Fisheries co- hosting the dinner^arid dance, the SCAA says, a&well as supplying speakers/6h pertinent topics. / All delegates registered for the SG$A's conference and trade show will have access to both morning and afternoon lectures by invited speakers followed by panel discussions on selected topics. In addition, for the first time, the SCAA will publish a bound copy^of the proceedings of the conference. September 23rd set Residents of Areas E and F of the Sunshine Coast Regional District will vote September 23 on a long-awaited library referendum. Voters will be asked if they are willing to support Gibsons & District Public Library with a slight tax increase (about $12 per average household, according to the regional district). Area E residents will vote at Cedar Grove School, Area F residents at Langdale School, between 8 am and 8 pm. The referendum was delayed for over one year by bureaucratic snags. During this time, the library board was forced to lay off one of its two paid staff members because of a shortage of funds. The board also considered closing the library temporarily, but donations from the public and a $5000 "grant-in-aid" from the regional district allowed the library to remain open. A "yes" vote in the referendum will allow the library to hire additional staff to cope with a dramatic increase in circulation. A successful referendum would also give the library ah increased book grant from the provincial government, allowing the library to expand its collection. Circulation and membership have tripled in the last decade, putting a strain on the mostly volunteer staff, said board chairman Vern Giesbrecht. Despite chronic under funding by local governments, the library has managed to triple its book and magazine collection in the last decade and to extend its opening hours to 30 hours per week. Even though two of every three library patrons live outside the Town of Gibsons, the town has paid a disproportionate share of library costs, the chair man pointed out. Iri 1987, for example, the town contributed $8000, the regional district $1700. In 1988, the town gave $10,000 but the regional district dropped its grant entirely, in anticipation of the referendum which was promised in 1988 but never took place. "This referendum will give many people who have enjoyed our library service at virtually no cost an opportunity to contribute just a little bit more. A "yes" vote will allow us to keep the doors open and to provide even better service," Giesbrecht said.

The upper part of the pole depicts the Salish legend of "Ya-hola thunderbird eating Sklan-a-mutsan blackfish or killer whale. The winged thunderbird has a Kul-ka-leeth (crazyman) crest on its chest and the killer whale has a prominent fin. The base of the pole features Stomish, (warrior) namesake of the carver, and is detailed with Tsingua (lightening snakes), which are the Salish equivalent of dragons. "So," quips Stomish, "I'm the low man on the totem pole." The 11 and a half foot pole, which sits on a cement base that extends its height to 14 feet, is the largest project that Stomish has ever undertaken, although his dream is to complete a life- sized 20-foot long traditional Salish fishing canoe, complete with canoers, a seal, and detailed equipment such as f dpes-and paddles. Three years ago Madeira Park resident and Credit Union member Jim Warnock suggested the idea of a totem pole in front of the building to then- president Gib Baal, who followed the project through as a member of the building committee. Norm Goundry, owner of Sunsoft Electronics, donated the cedar log that was carved by 39-year-old Stomish and a number of other local business people helped out with the project.

We were accused last week, because we dared to criticize the pork-barrelling that was taking place in the Cariboo as the government tries to win its first by- election since the last general election, of being socialists. We dared to discern some distance between the premier's lavish handouts for the government candidate and his stern advice to the federal government to quit spending so much of the taxpayers' money. The accusation was an echo of the cold war, British Columbia style. These days with even Mikhail Gorbachev favouring free trade there doesn't seem to be any socialists left. Those who think themselves as such in this province have long since moved to the centre for election puposes or to the far right with the vested interests for their economic benefit. It's getting so that a non-influential little country newspaper might be able to ask for a government of honest men or for some decent priorities in the government's spending programs without being accused of having a hidden agenda. Let us test the water of this possible new freedom by observing that the news of brand new schools already overcrowded as children go back to the classrooms in 1989 is evidence of a serious planning vacuum. Is it also possible, without being labelled dangerous leftists, to make the observation that the continuing crisis in education health care with a shortage of underpaid and overworked nurses staffing our hospitals is also an indication of questionable priorities and short range vision on the part of our present leaders? For too long, criticising the government in this province has been seen as evidence of some form of serious malfunctioning or deep disloyalty.

We serve Mir. Knaus and his Alliance for the Protection of English in Canada fair warning that we may not be able to carry too many more of his letters for they are bordering, in our opinion, on hate literature which was, last time we looked, still against the law in Canada. ��� Mr. Knaus thanks us in advance for our kind cooperation. It has nothing to do with kindness or co-operation^ Mr. Knaus. We.publishcthisJleR ter as we published) nonei'twa weeks ago and as we have published many on the subject, from your pen, of education in the past year out of a determined tolerance for views with which we do not necessarily agree. Such determined tolerance is ( in keeping, we believe, with the spirit of this country. It is also remarkably missing from you or the organization that you are now apparently spokesman for, Mr. Knaus. Two weeks ago on the subject of Bill C-27, Mr. Knaus asserted that 'Bilingualism in the interpretation of Francophones means not English and French- speaking Canadians, it means Francophones'. We submit that this is bigoted nonsense. And nonsense remains nonsense no matter how vehemently urged. In the same letter Mr. Jakob Knaus asserts: "We had vivid examples in recent history of what happens when one minority group usurps the administration and imposes its own rules on the majority." Mr. Knaus then sees fit to make reference to Goebels and the Nazis of the Third Reich. ; Our reading of history tells us that the Nazis gained control of Germany and used a minority as> their whipping boys and scapegoats to consolidate their control'. They preach'ed'fear and hatred; and ^racial -purity, :did they not? ���'���'��� "; -ai �������� i<> ^yoY-/ -Take a look in this context at the letter this week on the issue that exercises Mr. Knaus as a 'matter of public interest' to be dealt with forthwith. Apparently on one of the channels on his television set, Channel 27, Mr. Knaus finds at 10 o'clock at night there is a French newscast. This he declaims as a provocation and a 'contamination' and merits a letter to his MLA. Consider well that word 'contamination'. A newscast on one of many television channels is in one of the languages of the first European settlers who founded the modern state of Canada and Mr. Knaus find this a contamination. We submit that this is the language of the white supremacists and the Klu Klux Klan. This is the language of the same Nazis that Mr. Knaus warns us against. This is the language of hate literature, it is the language of bigotry and fear. Now, lest there are those who see themselves as liberal but who are in fact both lazy and apathetic, and there were lots of those in the early 30's in Germany as the malevolent Nazis strode to power from humble but hate-filled beginnings, and who think we.make too much of alhthis, consider: Y 'Mr. Knaiisjhas been a tireless critic of the ^education 'system,! though - and here I speak as a trained teacher with 15 years classroom experience - there has been no discernible philosophy to his printed utterances other than the fact that he doesn't like teachers. Couple this with the fact that the debate about French Immersion will doubtless continue in this school district and that Mr. Knaus, self-proclaimed title and all, will certainly assure that his organization of elderly bigots will be heard from ad nauseam. The debate that should and will take place is unlikely to be enlightened by the murky pas sions of the contributions from APEC. As an aside\ I note with some sadness that three former aldermen in the Town of Gibsons have lent whatever prestige they have to this organization. Messrs. Maxwell, Mecalfe, and Marshall worked with Larry Labonte, arguably the best mayor that Gibsons ever had. Mr. Labonte uses the English language better than any of these self-styled protectors of English, and does so without feeling any less a French Canadian. I am reminded from one of my days on council of an incident which seemed to me to.be a- glimpse of Canada as it wias:. meant to be. It was a--morning' planning meeting and into they Gibsons Council chambers came a group of French Canadian students of elementary school age. They were part of an exchange program. Then Mayor Labonte greeted them in their own language and their young faces shone with delight as he distributed town pins to them as keepsakes and spoke to them in French. Wherever they now are growing up in Quebec it will be very difficult for those children to imagine that anti-French bigotry is flourishing on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. Let's keep it that way. Racism marks The Sunshine Published by: GLASSFORD PRESS LTD.

And yet, as we are being asked to remember the power, the confusion, the raging patriotism and the pain of those years, in small-town Richmond, BC, a synagogue is being defaced with swastikas and it is spray-painted with anti-Semitic slogans which cause an old Jewish woman, a survivor of the World War II death camps, to weep in fear of another holacaust. The lessons of 50 years ago were supposed to have been well learned, burned into our collective memories so something like the slaughter of Jews, and of Russians, of Gypsies and of Germans, of prisoners of wars, and of all the others, soldiers and civilians alike, could never happen again./ And yet, apparently, it is happening again, in small pockets of Canada and in miniature scale but even one person's insane scribblings of 7 'six million is not enough', should cause us all to rejx>nt- emplate the horror of the world 50years ago. ���������'*-,' Around 1965, when the hippie trend had not yet swung, full force toward peace and love but which was being signalled, nevertheless, by the' beginnings of some sort of rebellion among teenagers, iron crosses and swastikas became fashionable for a while. ^ In small town Windsor Mills, Quebec, people frowned when they saw these symbols hanging as jewellery around the necks of those who were obviously much too young to have been 'in the war' - the war that was still much too fresh to be relegated to 'remember when'stories. Many people in the town, as in elsewhere, wore their scars of that war upfront, forbidding anyone to forget how these wounds were acquired. Mr. Robinson, for example, tall and very stooped, shuffled as he walked because he had been captured by the Japanese in Hong Kong and had been placed, as a prisoner, in a small anniversary box for over a year. There were several men who had been blinded and there was yet another whose face had been split by a bullet. Repaired, his cheeks were pulled into a perpetual grin even when he cried. And there was Mrs. Beekers. She was young and pretty and she had a tattoo of a series of numbers on her upper arm and, like the old Jewish woman in Richmond, she cried when she saw a swastika. She had never been a soldier and was a child of 11 when she was shipped from her home in the Ukraine to a concentration camp. No child in Windsor Mills, safe and petted, who ever bothered to ask her where the numbers came from or why she so often cried, ever failed to understand or to forget the true horrors of war. Mrs. Beekers' story began when she left her home in her village one morning to attend the local school for the day. At noon the German troops moved in and she was rounded up and on a freight train headed for a concentration camp by evening. It was all very efficiently done, she remembers, and She never saw her family again i In among the times of intense pain, humiliation and terror of her years in the camps and as a victim of medical experiments, Mrs. Beekers chooses to remember, instead, the kindness of the people who, in their own misery, risked their lives to save her's. And there were many, she says, Jews and Germans alike. Mrs. Beekers' personal memory of the war wreaked havoc in her life many years after the fact but she always was and she remains the town's kindest and most generous person. She pre-judges no one. Her lesson as a victim of racism and bigotry and of war, as well as those of other's who experienced World War II, is': one we should never forget and her example of rising above the dregs of human behaviour is one we should attempt (to emulate even 50 years after the fact and so far from any obvious battlefields. _����___ Your community's AWARD-WINNING newspaper m^-si.: *-< ,.^;-~,.v-.- Coast News, September^ 1989 3.

MLA for Mackenzie Social Credit Caucus Parliament/.Building, Victoria Dear Harold: French News on Channel 27 We wish to draw your attention to the following fact and ask you to make representation on our behalf with the responsible authorities in Victoria. We have noticed that during prime newstime at 22:00 hour on Channel 27, CBC newschan- nel, the news is read in French with English sub-titles displayed on the screen. In our opinion this is sheer provocation of Enghsh speaking Canadians in British Columbia. We have learned that the French Quebecois have refused a French 24 hour CBC newschannel, the reason being that it is far too expensive for the mere six million French speaking Canadians. For the French Canadians in British Columbia there is a separate =French Channel, in our area channel 26. Therefore, we fail to see that our English newschannel 27 has to be contaminated with this French provocation. We were not asked whether we wanted CBC newschannel 27, we are simply being billed monthly for it, regardless whether we view it or not. Therefore, if we have to pay for it, we have a right not to be pro- yoked every day when we view it by this French 'presentation'.

(Victoria Times-Colonist, 03/05/89) The specialty wood industry accounts for only 15 per cent of the province's finished wood production according to a 1988 federal-provincial study. Under this Industrial De-. velopment. Subsidiary Agreement it was noted the BC lumber industry could add more than $1.7 billion to its revenues by producing more specialty wood products. MacMillan Bloedel's net earnings for the first six months of 1989 were $135.2 million, $178.8 million the year before. Is this money staying in BC to prevent 'economic chaos' Mr. Parker? Mac-Bio's multi-national parent, Noranda Forest of Canada recently tried to build a $1 billion pulp mill in Tasmania. On July 11, Mac-Bio announced it will build a $74 million US parallel strand plant in Minnesota. They are already building a second plant in Georgia. Like all multi-national resource companies, their raison d'etre is to maximize profit. They are investing their BC profits' elsewhere and when our old growth has been logged out by the year 2000, don't expect any handouts from these corporate citizens. Jim Pine Victoria Pioneer royalty Editor: If pioneers were royalty, the Higgs family would be dominant on the list and one, William York Higgs, would star in the night sky. This world traveler truly mixed business with pleasure as he covered marine survey inspections at various global points and was first to establish a ferry between Nanaimo and Gabriola Island a long, long time ago. The closest he came to royalty is in his name William York Higgs which he was given by his parent in memory of the Duke of York's visit to Victoria at the turn of the century. Dick Kennett Ms Collins vs. Mr. McDowell Editor: Mr. McDowell was false when he quoted Mrs. Collins (The Press, August 29). A slight inaccuracy in quotation would be rectified by changing 'live outside the town' to 'work off the Coast'. Perhaps people who earn wages off the Coast but spend them on the Coast and have an interest in the area in which they live might be ;more willing to run for public office if they knew they didn't have to 'run the gauntlet' for the 'right' to have minutes of meetings (approximately two pages in length) faxed to them (a cost of approximately $2 per phone call), none of which would be a cost to the taxpayer. Alderman Collins (Ken) has asked that the town fax him collect, at his own expense. This policy of nob allowing government representatives access to information upon which they will be required to make intelligent decisions and vote on behalf of the townspeople is not only discriminatory but unwise^ ., It is j . fpolhardy.i i*to_ ? not welcome or at least listen ;to input from Alderman Collins who not only acts in an r administrative capacity fprva corporation larger than the Town of Gibsons, but who is also in touch with a fully viable council in Valdez, Alaska, whose travel budget alone (for six aldermen and one mayor) is $60,000. In a council of four aldermen and one mayor, each person should be given opportunity to speak whether absent or present; communications being such nowadays that policy can be. set" democratically within seconds-;^linkingY points all aroundrthe world'. -��� ���} Gibsons does not need to be blind to this technology but to use it j. especially when they don't have to pay for it. Arline Collins Westlake of fers rebuttal Editor: David Winter's letter regarding abortion published August 21 in the Coast News sounded slick but presented the public with bad ethics, tired rhetoric and plain misinformation. The circumstances surrounding abortion are always unfortunate, not 'sometimes'. This, however, is no support for his statement that, "...no restricting law can be imposed over a woman's personal choice respecting abortion." Of course one can. We once had such a law; it worked to restrict, the number of abortions and we can have one again. We have laws because we want to uphold certain values in our society. We have laws to protect the innocent. Mr. Winter fails even once to mention what is being aborted: an innocent living human being. Mr. Winter does not know that statistically we now have far more complications due to abortion than ever occurred before abortion was legalized. The maternal death rate from abortion dropped sharply in the 1940s and 1950s due to the introduction of antibiotics, not due to legalization. Doctors, not back street amateurs, always did most of the abortions, legal or not. As the number of abortions increased over the past 25 years to one in six Canadian babies conceived, the number of women experiencing the short and long term complications of having an abortion also increased. Even under controlled clinical conditions induced abortion entails immediate risk of uterine perforation, infection, hemorrhage, embolism and death. Late complications include infertility, ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, placenta previa and prematurity. Abortion is only a 'medical' procedure in so far as doctors are the technicians who do them. Any legitimate medical procedure should have clear indications for which it may be done and adequate proof that the procedure is truly therapeutic or beneficial to the patient. With abortion the medical community has satisfied neither of these criteria. The proper scientific studies have not been done and women having abortions today are guinea pigs, sub- jecte4 to an unproven therapy. Why should abortion be exempt from'our scientific scrutiny? Is abortion a, "...medically required service...", as Shirley Carr claims? Not when the 'disease' is predictably self limited, lasting only nine months, give or take a few weeks. Abortions done for reasons of: true threat to the mother's life,������ plus severe fetal abnormalities, plus pregnancy due to rape or incest total less than 1 per cent of all abortions. The other 99 per cent are done for so-called psychiatric indications. Are 65,000 women per year in Canada so seriously mentally ill, as well as pregnant? If so, one would have to question the wisdom of allowing us to vote, let alone to, make a chpice involving life or death. In fact, women seeking abortion were given the pseudo- psychiatric label of 'reactive depression' by their abortionists as a sop to the therapeutic abortion committees once in existence, who could then rubber stamp the application. If one looks at these cases individually one sees dilemmas and heartache, as well as perfectly normal first trimester ambivalence about being pregnant, flavoured by morning sickness and fatigue. The reasons women choose abortion are social and/or economic, not medical.������'���There are no good medical reasons for abortion except ectopic pregnancy and invasive cancer of the reproductive organs. Physicians can do open heart surgeiy on pregnant women and save both patients, the mother and her baby. With abortion one of our patients, the unborn child, always dies and that is bad medicine. There are no psychiatric indications for abortion. The more severe the psychiatric illness the greater the likelihood that having an abortion will worsen the condition. When a woman comes to me with an unexpected pregnancy I can offer her help to proceed to one of two positive conclusions: a baby to care for, or a baby to share with others. Those recommending abortion can only offer her a dead baby.

Coast News, September 4,1989 For restructuring by Ellen Frith The latest word from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs on the issue of the proposed restructuring of the Town of Gibsons with Areas E and F, is: "There continues to be ongoing discussion so October 7 as a referendum date is slipped." The issue was on the provincial cabinet's August 30 agenda, a fact the executive assistant to Minister of Municipal Affairs Rita Johnston, told the Coast News was not supposed to have been made public. It was the executive assistant who said the referendum date was "slipped" and she added that there "will not be any movement" on the issue until further discussions take place. The minister, herself, was not in Victoria on Friday and was unavailable for comment. The anxiously awaited decision from Victoria not only included whether or not the Oc tober 7 date was suitable for a referendum on restructuring, but also if the vote could be tabulated separately. The town also wants confirmation of the grant monies promised for the restructuring study etc., some of which has already been spent. At the August 26 Restructuring Advisory Committee (RAC) meeting, Gibsons Clerk Administrator Lorraine Goddard told those present the issue was to be on the cabinet agenda on August 30 and that only if the town received an immediate response (before September 1) could the voting procedures for an October 7 referendum be put into motion. Town Planner Rob Buchan, who was filling in for Goddard this week while 'she went oh" noliday, told the Coast News on Friday that the town was in hourly contact with Victoria hoping to hear what the decision from the minister was.

The minister's office told the Coast News a letter had been sent to Mayor Diane Strom dated August 23 and that it had informed her of possible delays; That letter has.not yet come before council as it was late in arriving in Gibsons but it will be presented at this Tuesday's council meeting, Alderman John Reynolds told the Coast News and he stressed the contents of the letter could not be made public before then. "Nothing is going to happen before Tuesday," he said. RAC Chairman Malcolm Fraser felt the possible change , from an October 7 voting date to one later in the year would most inconvenience the people who lived off the Coast but who owned property here and were eligible to vote. "I don't know what games are being played if they are, in fact, games," he told the Coast News. "It seems it always takes three months for Victoria to make a decision on anything which is another good reason not to have things done through Victoria." ��� Fraser is a proponent of local control which he stressed is the most positive aspect of restructuring. The RAC will continue with its Saturday meetings and with its information table between 11 am and 4 pm at Sunnycrest Mall until further notice.

"Yes, we leave with mixed feelings," said the Reids," and one of these is sadness. Not since either of us was a child have we lived in one place for more than four years. Now after over eight years here on the Coast, we leave so many friends. But we take warm and rich memories with us." "Because of our children and their families, a daughter in Victoria and a son in Burnaby, we chose to come west at that time to live. Consequently we came here to this pastoral charge on the Sunshine Coast. "When this coming year in Burnaby is completed, it will be time for me, after 49 years, to retire from the ministry. Victoria looks like a good place to retire to." Molly Whitelaw Reid, who has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick, and who has studied with Lawren Harris, Jr., and REV. ALEX REID the noted Alex Colville, will be greatly missed by her students here on the Coast; students who have flourished chiefly in water; colours, under her tutelage. Alex Reid graduated, a Bachelor of Arts, in 1947, a year before Molly gained her degree, and in the same university. In 1950 he graduated in Theology in Pine Hill Hall in Halifax. While in the Canadian Forces, Alex continued studies from time to time in such diverse fields as Instructional Techniques and Senior Management. In theology he undertook training in narrative preaching and studies in Christian ethics, particularly bioethics which delves into ethical problems ^Cl/ldl/lJ?

Following1 his ordination in 1950, Alex served pastoral charges in New Brunswick until 1955 during which time he was also chaplain to two militia units. . In the regular forces he has served as chaplain to the PPCLI (The Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry), the Canadian Guards, Air Command and with NATO in Germany. And there was a year, 1962-63, in the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in the Congo. One of his decorations is the Canadian Forces Decoration (CD) for continued exemplary service. He continued his Canadian Legion association here as padre to Branch 109, Gibsons. "We'll miss him," said Larry Boyd, the branch president, "but we expect him back for the Remembrance Day Service this fall." "One of my cherished mementos of Gibsons," Alex said, "is a gift of a book from the ilate Fred Cruice's library, given me by his wife Dorothy. It's a history of the famous unit, the PPCLI. "I was a member of Air Cadets in 1942-43, and when I came to Gibsons I served gladly as their padre." Jean Mainil said, "We are grateful for Molly for the logo she designed for the letterhead for our two churches. The stained glass window in St. John's is her work, and in Gibsons she designed the altar cloth and the cover of the historic roll." At the farewell the cake was inscribed with her logo - the mountains, sea, eagle and salmon.

Halfnioon Bay Happenings em' Bus a loss by Ruth Forrester, 885-2418 A group of senior citizens who regularly use the shoppers' bus every Thursday are most upset to learn that the service is being withdrawn. George Hopkins has served the Redrooffs community well for several years and the shoppers' bus has become a way of life for many who do not drive and who depend on the Thursday bus. George is removing the service in order that the Paratransit bus may be supported on its Redrooffs runs. The Paratransit bus schedule is on Mondays and Wednesdays, but it is on Thursdays that the people like to make the Sechelt trip, the main reason being that Thursday is seniors discount day at several stores and hairdressing establishments. Another reason for the protest is that the time which must be spent in Sechelt is too long for most passengers. Pickup time is 9 am from Redrooffs and the return time is 3 pm from Sechelt, which makes for a six hour trip, two^burs hiote than the present schedule. It has beiT 8&g0L4;$&; solution to the problem lies with Paratransit who could change the schedule to suit the residents' needs. I understand that at this time there are meetings underway, so , the problem might well be solved soon. Let's hope so. BRIDGE ANYONE? The Welcome Beach Community Association on Redrooffs Road are hoping to have good response to its latest community effort, which is afternoons of bridge at the hall. Starting date will be Friday September 22, and if response is sufficient will continue on the first and third Fridays of each month throughout the winter months. Everyone will be made welcome and tea and coffee will be served. Also worthy of note is the fact that the hall is accessible for wheelchairs at the rear of the building. If you would like to express your interest or get further information call Barbara at 885-9860 or Marry Ann at 885-3496.

"During their last visit, business - proposals under discussion for the Sechelt area, include a mobile coffee service, a commercial greenhouse and a salal export operation," said Mackenzie MLA Harold Long. "The overall aim of these visits is regional development: to create new jobs by encouraging the start of new businesses or the expansion of existing ones." Regional Development Minister Elwood Veitch, who is also Minister of State for the Mainland/Southwest region, said information from the counsellors about government assistance for businesses includes the Ministry's Regional Seed Capital Loan Guarantee Program which encourages banks, credit unions and trust companies to make higher risk loans to small businesses and entrepreneurs.

TIME CORRECTION A wee gremlin somehow got into the works last week in the item about the Halfmoon Bay Branch of the Hospital Auxiliary's first meeting of the season. The place is at Welcome Beach Hall, but the time is 10 am, not 10:30 as stated. Sorry ladies. The date is Monday, September 11. ARTS GROUP If you like to sketch or paint, or even if you have never tried your hand at art work there is a good opportunity to get together with a group who do this for the joy of it. Starting Monday September 25 the group will gather at Welcome Beach Hall from 1:30 until 4 pm each Monday. You can be assured of a warm welcome and sharing of knowledge and technique. Revising British Columbia's Assessment and Property Taxation system and a call for the establishment of designated sites for the disposal and storage of toxic wastes and hazardous material will highlight discussion at the 86th Union of Brjtish Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) Convention. Close to 1700 delegates, including mayors and municipal and regional district representatives from virtually every British Columbia municipality are expected at the. four-day event at the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre, September 19 to September 22. The convention theme centres around the issues of 'Financing Local Government' and 'the Environment' with 132 resolutions up for delegate consideration and debate. As well, eight selected workshops have been Y.set; . /.. '.'^l Topics will range from the RCMP contract to recycling, environmental law and the forest inquiry. ��� Among other resolutions to be discussed are those calling Yfar the reclamation of halogens and CFCs, municipal election campaign disclosure and a call for legislation to increase the legal drinking age to 21. An emergency resolution on the new federal sales tax is also expected. The annual UBCM Convention is also seen as a working opportunity for local government representatives, as provincial and federal government departments and agencies establish temporary offices around the convention site and schedule meetings with municipal officials. This year 16 separate departments will be in attendance. The Union of BC Municipalities represents all municipalities within British Columbia. The UBCM is an advocate for provincial municipalities and regional districts in dealing with various provincial government departments. ANCE LESSONS?

Verity's plant magic When I was 'doing time' in San Quentin Prison I spent 18 months among the condemned boys and men... I acted as secretary, social companion and, if you will, father confessor. Herbert Emerson Wilson, Vancouver Sun, January 15, 1953 Herb Wilson settles into his new quarters with feelings that can only be described as mixed. He is heartily relieved to be off the prison's main line andfisafe from the clutches of his ill- wishers, but he is bound to admit that these precincts of the doomed are singularly op- presiyg.^.,.,,^,,,,.^.,.,... He cannot Kelp but wonder about the previous tenants of the gloomy cell to which he has been assigned. What desperate thoughts did they have on those last grey dawns before the chaplain came, the warden and his death squad close behind? Herb will brood over these unpleasant conjectures many times in months to come. ' SdP* ^ Verity Purdy has been an artist all her life - a classical dancer, an interior designer, an actress, painter and teacher of quitation. Her talents know no boundaries. Now Verity focuses on an old love...'Bringing the Outside In'. She creates wonderful wild plant and flower arrangements and will be teaching a two-day course on the fine points of her art at Rockwood Centre this month. She attributes her talent to her mother who constantly produced beautiful plant arrangements with raw materials picked from the 'wilderness' or, in a sense, out of nothing. Nothing was bought, nothing was cultivated. The only limitation was imagination. Verity works in both grand and delicate scales, tailoring her creations to specific occasions and seasons. Versatility is essential if one is to make the most of what nature happens to be offering that particular month. The classes will be. heldly^ By emphasizing the use of Rockwood Centre on SeptenP . wUd: an imiigeM^ rt flowers, foliage and grasses, , U2:3apm^d-wU-cost-$5&- Verity has truly refined her art. ��� One of her many secrets.ris contained in the visiiM approach to the arrangement ."One must visualize the creation in an abstract and graphic manner, using the wild plants in masses or clumps, ' For those of you who wish to acquire the full fruit of Verity's talent and skill, you may enroll in her two-day program being offered at the Rockwood Centre this September.

Murderer's Row, in common with the. rest of San Quentin, has a surfeit of tenants. The unit contains 10 cells and 16 prisoners - more than have been-confined there at any one time before in the prison's: long history. Several men have forced to double up with Herb but, to his relief, has no cellmate at present. Only rarely are the condemned men, under heavy guard, allowed to leave their prison- within-a-piison to attend certain sporting events. The rest of the time they are quarantined here. jThere is much Facing, constant, talk of unlikely reprieves.rand, in the face of the unthinkable, occasional bitter laughter. Herb continues with his self- improvement program, devouring one book after another. In the grim environment of Murderer's Row he beginfrto set his thoughts and observations down on paper. His writing will become an ongoing activity down the long years to freedom and will result in a formidable body of work. Unfortunately, this vast output will be marred from start to finish by a verbose pomposity he will never manage to overcome. '���"*'' -'H The trusty who sejrvices Murderer's Row, delivering the meals and picking up empty trays and full slop buckets, is a curious individual named Jim McNamara. Twenty Jyears before he had been convicted of planting a bomb at the Los Angeles Times offices, the resultant explosion of which had killed almost two dozen people.

(See story below). ���Ellen Frith photo Kuerti move hi by Ellen Frith World renowned concert pianist Anton Kuerti made a flying visit to Gibsons last Thursday to bring his piano to town. He'll be returning September 27 to begin the Sun- Yshine Coast Arts Council's sixth 'annual series of Countryside ^Concerts and, with piano set up ��������� and newly tuned in the Twilight YTheatre, will, no doubt, en- jlchant a local audience as he has /ildone with others throughout the liworld^ ""'" -^Kiierti; directing and helping a group of local "piano . fr^py^^J<>n; \tW intricacies of -plugging- his $40,000 Steinwav -concert grand from the back of "^his van through the narrow back, door of the theatre, dispeue4, forever the popular image of the concert pianist as a y "sb>terribly precious" person. It wasfeasy to forget, as he strained and lifted with the best of them, that he had any particular talent at all until, with the piano finally on stage, he threw back the cover and played "a few bars". Suddenly, the piano, a heavy awkward shaped thing, was transformed into a thing of grace and the little theatre brightened. Kuerti, in his grub- i! by dress and with disheveled :" hair, performed magic in those few seconds. It is conceivable, Arts Coun- :X jcil Director Allan Crane told the YCoast News that the piano, j made; iri Hamburg, Germany, ;may be bought by the com- Yjmunity and placed in a specially 'renovated room at the back of the Twilight Theatre for use in concerts, for practice by advance/students or those taking music exams and in the teaching ofirriaster-level classes.

Where could we go where we could escape for an hour? One of the 'girls', the only guy in the group, suggested the 'Mediterranean'. Ha Ha! Hey, that's not a bad idea. Let's go to the Omega Restaurant. Once inside we all jockeyed for a window seat overlooking the marina. Next problem...how do you satisfy five different, appetites...large and small? v The pleasant service began by the waitress going out of heir- way to set up the extra settings and chairs. Our waitress, Carol* listened to our chattering while we were choosing our selections. ��� ' ,. Let's see, nachos with mozzarella cheese and salsa sauce;, tzanziki with pita bread; kalamari (squid) with tzanziki; homus with pita bread; Greek Special - a pizza with mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, onions, mushrooms and tomato sauce, and to top it off two caesar salads. Were we going too, fast for her? Yes...she was still writing down k-a-1-a-m-a-r-i... There was .such a bounty of selections to choose from, it was hard not to get carried away. Would seven selections satisfy five people? > While waiting for our food to arrive we all enjoyed the view and conversation triggered by^our surroundings.:; ; >{ Before we knew it our food arrived and arrived, putting an end to our conversation and yes, seven selections would be enough! The kalamari, which this .writer had never tasted before, ;. was a delightful new experience and I was in total agreement with the rest of the party who had partaken of the delicacy before. The tzanziki, and the homus served with warmed pita bread made an excellent companion to the lightly battered kalamari. The nachos smothered with mozzarella cheese, served with salsa sauce and sour cream on the side was a welcome surprise. .:. Our Greek pizza consisting of mozzarella cheese, fresh tomatoes, onions, mushrooms and tomato sauce brought raves from everyone, including the non-pizza eater. Last but not least, the caesar salads, (for caesar salad :? lovers), will be one not to forget. We were reluctant to leave and our short visit to the Omega Restaurant made the rest of the day more palatable. It was worth coming for the view alone but that coupled with the interesting food left a lasting impression. Andy's Restaiiriinf-Every Wednes- : day night is Prime Rib Night.

Pentland-Smith was reluctant to talk about individual Chinese friends for fear of putting them in jeopardy. "If anyone came to visit me in my room they had to sign in with the man at the door, say why they were there and give their times of arriving and leaving. I knew there were one or two who were afraid to visit at all because they did not want it known that they were friendly with a foreigner." Yet she found that people were remarkably friendly. Many times people she spoke to in the streets took her home to /lunch, "where they always took ^abpur200pictures." . '"'"Public 'displays bfr affection . were commonplace. It was not unusual to see men, even soldiers, walking hand in hand, and women would unaffectedly walk with their arms around each other. She found there was a general tone of hopelessness and depression among the intellectuals in China. "We have lots of problems here," she said, "and some people have terrible things happen to them. But you always think something can be done about it. "There the problems are so great - the poverty, the crowding, the corruption, the lack of freedom. You just know there is nothing - especially as a foreigner - nothing you can do about it. "They all want to get away but they can't. And they have very little hope of changing anything. It leads to this feeling of helplessness for so many of them." Pentland-Smith became ill and had to leave before her year was over. A week after she got back, the Beijing massacre happened. "I knew there were going to be demonstrations," she said, "but the violence was so unexpected. It's appalling. I was devastated. It's put everything back so far." Asked if she would go back she said, "I don't think I could, The trust would be gone. I always felt safe before. I don't think I could. It will be interesting to see what happens. "But I didn't come back on China Airlines. It cost me money because I had a return ticket. I came back with Canadian Pacific Airlines," by Ed Hill The curling rink in Gibsons has four sheets of ice. It accommodates 32 curlers at a time.' An eight end game takes two hours to play and usually two draws are scheduled in one evening. The first draw usually takes place at 7 pm and the second draw starts at 9 pm. After their game, curlers can take a break and watch the next scheduled games from the lounge upstairs. Teams often take this tiirie to socialize and celebrate their win or commiserate over their loss. Many curlers play the other teams games from the safety of the lounge. It is safe to say that a rock has never been, played wrong by the spectators iri the lounge. . Yl The length of a sheet;from backboard to backboard is 146 feet or 44.5 metres. The width of a sheet is 14 feet two inches or 4.418 metres. At each end of the sheet there is a back line, a tee line which goes through the centre of the circles and a hog line. A rock must cross the hog line before it comes into play. A rock which does not cross the hog line is removed from play. Although the length of a curling sheet seems a, long way, even kids in Grade 5 or 6 at trie elementary school are able to throw the rock from one end of the sheet to the other end. Both the junior leagues and the Friday night fun league have kids of this age enjoying the game. If you feel you would like to enroll your kids in the junior program you could contact Carol Skytte at 886-7801. I am sure she would love to enroll your child in the juniors program. She is a very good coach with some very good helpers and she has an excellent program going. The kids really enjoy it.

In the interim, council has retained the services of Ozzie Gjerdalen, a retired public works supervisor from North Vancouver. Staff at Gibsons town hall became aware of Gjerdalen when he began helping out a friend, who owns property on the Bluff, lay in a sewer extension on his property. Gjerdalen will be working two days a week until Wilbert. Fair arrives. Alderman Lilian Kunstler was part of the interview committee and stated, "I feel that Mr. Fair will fit in very well."

This year, the new school will house students through to Grade 7. So far 98 students are expected. Linda Smith, Suzanne Bolivar and Karin Tigert are added to the teaching staff, with Tigert splitting her time between Halfmoon Bay and Sechelt. Both Madeira Park and Sechelt Elementary Schools are also seeing a big increase in population with Madeira Park up 21 and Sechelt up 26 over last year's September totals of 186 and 357 respectively. Deborah Allain, Julie Bishop and Joe Chell will be joining the staff at Sechelt this year, and Johanne Taschereva will be handling the program cadre. West Sechelt is the only school in the district to start the school year with less registrants than last year, with 189 students registered as opposed to last year's 191. New members of the staff at West Sechelt will include Denis Newton, Margaret Scott'^ and Janice Branson, who willy^ share her time with Roberts^ Creek Elementary. Roberts Creek school is stay; 3 ing steady, with an increase of only one student expected on "\ the first day.

YY \ Tourist Centre An informal poll conducted by the Sechelt Travel InfoCentre shows that the "most average" visitor to the Sunshine Coast drove here in their private car with the intention of relaxing and touring. During their stay (three nights in a motel or with friends), they did some hiking, salt-water fishing or boating, these being the most popular outdoor activities with visitors. Also, the Sunshine Coast was the main destination for most visitors, many of whom were returning for another visit. Visitors to the Coast said they liked the friendliness of the residents best, followed by the service offered by the Travel InfoCentres. Although the sampling was small, this survey does give some indication of the type of visitor attracted to our beautiful Coast and what they like to do when they get here. t 2 s *4 i ^"DEPENDABLE So its back to school^ for Gregory Neilson* but, before he can enter the Grade 2 classroom he must carrjrwith him every item on This is no easy feat because he , ���Kent Sheridan photo y&jin/A. his mothers' back-to-school listo; probably heeds two of everythii |; &:< "%��yii MISC SERVICES MISC SERVICES 5032 CHESTER STREET VANCOUVER, B.C.

Upon arrival it was discovered that the RCMP had extinguished the fire and a crew and pumper remained to wash off the road.; y August 12, 7:36 pm, trucks responded to a call for medical aid in the Gower Point area. f August 20, 1:08 pm, members attended a fire on a boat at the Government Wharf in Gibsons. The fire had been extinguished when the crew arrived and Gibsons firefighters assisted in the cleanup. August 22, 12:34 am, one of the most frightening scenarios for the Gibsons firefighters is a fire at one of the marinas in Gibsons. Because of the large volumes of fuel stored near the gas" floats, a fire could be devastating. A quick response was given to a call to a fire on a. boat tied to the Alibi Wahoo at Hyak Marina. One firefighter was injural anci'"taken* to Hospital fighting the stubborn blaze which destroyed one boat and caused some damage to another. -p. Cause of the fire is under in: vestigation. Because of the rain during the last week, the ban on outdoor (burning has been lifted for the 'time being.

He was instrumental in converting the Gibsons Bus from regular leaded gasoline to propane and was able to do much of the needed work on the vehicle himself.. "I really studied the advantages and disadvantages," he said, and his conclusion was: "Propane is much better." The basic change-over from regular gasoline to propane, Hauka says, involves a new carburetor and regulator, as well as the installation of a vacuum shut-off valve and other safety features. "There are quite a few safety devices on the bus," he says, "and so the propane is very safe. It's safer than gasoline." As for the availability of propane: "It is very available on the Coast," Hauka says, "but they've only just started pushing it now." The price varies, but on average* the Gibsons bus pays approximately 26 V_ cents a litre for propane and Hauka says he has paid as low as 18 cents a litre. YThe actual money saved in fuel costs was a factor in converting one of their two buses to propane, Giannakos says, but that wasn't the only reason. "Let me put it this way," he said. "If we could have saved half the money by using aerosol, for example, we wouldn't have done it!" As soon as funds are available, Giannakos and Hauka hope to be able to convert the other 24-seat bus to propane. Hauka suggested the provincial government should be encouraged to help private business such as theirs towards full conversion to environmentally safe fuels. "All we need is a little subsidy," he said. Frank Biggar, one of the drivers of the propane fuelled Gibsons Bus, awaits the 12:25 pm ferry at Langdale terminal to take on off loading passengers.

The property includes a 4500 foot fenced outdoor storage compound, landscape park and spawning creek for Coho salmon and trout. Coho fry have already been found in the creek by the fisheries officer and trees will be planted over it so that fallen leaves will provide nutrients for the young salmon and trout. When work is complete on the park area, it will include picnic tables and a cedar-roofed billboard kiosk displaying general information and maps, and the upper, banked area will be seeded with wallflowers and clover. Other areas will be planted naturally with aider and salmonberries. Although Larry Curtiss has suggested the area be called "Madeira Park Park," an official name hasn't yet been chosen. The Legion has already started landscaping its property adjacent to the fisheries complex, and Chamber of Commerce representatives will at tend the next Area Planning Committee meeting in Madeira Park to inquire about stree'tlights and; sidewalks promised for the'area last spring.^ Mrs. Ray Kraft, Jane^Reid; and Malcolm Duncan promoted the idea, of getting the complex located in Madeira Park. "They really sparkplugged things and were in_tfumehtal in getting the complex here."

Coast News, September 4,1989 Y by Ellen Frith Guess Where ��.<_���%*.' In spite of the nation's attention being firmly focused last week on the handling and storage of controversial PCB waste in Quebec, an application to the provincial Waste Management Branch by Construction Aggregates for permission to move and then store old electrical capacitors containing PCB fluid from a site near Port Mellon to storage facilities in Colwood near Victoria, did not go unnoticed. Colwood doesn't want the stuff, local news stories cried. According to Steve Roik, Manager of Development for Construction Aggregates, it's all "a tempest in a teapot." The liquid in electrical capacitors in question contain less than a kilogram of PCBs, he told the Coast News, and the strictest provincial and federal The usual prize of $5 will be awarded the first correct entry drawn which locates the above. Send your entries to reach the Coast News, Box 460, Gibsons by Saturday of this week. As there were no correct entries received for last week's Guess Where it will be repeated in the near future with a $10 prize. At Kiwanis Care Home More nursing problems The nursing staff at Kiwanis Village Care Home in Gibsons do not anticipate strike action at this time although a strike vote was taken on August 25 was affirmative, a spokesperson for the BC Nurses' Union told the Coast News. "We are still negotiating," she said. A press release from the BCNU on August 28 states: "Their employers' stonewalling at the bargaining table has brought 46 members of the BC Nurses' Union to the brink of strike action at five long term care facilities across the province." At issue locally are first col lective agreements with the 10 nurses working at the Kiwanis Village Care Home. The major common stumbling block, the BCNU feels, is bringing nurses' wages and benefits up to prevailing standards for BC long-term care facilities. The employers either reject the concept outright or want to delay its implementation," the BCNU said. The 46 nurses returned an average 98 per cent strike mandate in votes conducted August 25 under Industrial Relations Council (IRQ supervision. The BC Federation of Labour had granted exemptions from its IRC boycott for these votes. BCNU will consult with its members before serving strike notice at any location and if job action occurs, the union will assure the provision of essential nursing services. , Starting rates at the five facilities involved average $13.02 an hour with a high salary of $13.87 being at the Gibsons Kiwanis Village Care Home.

Coast Cadets are flourishing by Captain Ron Biggs In the spring of 1988, a group of concerned parents and citizens formed an association to assist the 2963 Sunshine Coast Army Cadets (Seaforth) through financial, and other means. The name of the association is the Support Association to Sunshine Coast Army Cadets, or SASCAC for short. Many cadet corps look for financial and other means of support beyond the means of the sponsor, in this case, Branch 140, Royal Canadian Legion, Sechelt. The sponsors provide basic support for the cadets but there are other needs which they are unable to supply for various reasons. The ultimate goal of the three groups, sponsor, officers and association, is to help our youth to grow into fine, honest and patriotic citizens of our country. This association is now registered under the British Columbia Societies Act and a charter of incorporation was granted on August 17, 1988. The most important achievement since incorporation was to obtain from the provincial government, some 20 acres of Crown Land near the Sechelt airport. Y This acreage will be used for parades, exercises, search and rescue operations, outdoor camping, etc. Upon final approval being received, this land will- be- for cadet use for 30 yearsat $l*a ������-* year, nominal fee. The support received from the District of Sechelt, Sunshine Coast Regional District and Ministry of Lands has been very encouraging in our long deliberation. y The association presently has a membership of 35 and an elected board of directions as follows: Doreen Pihichyn, President; Major Bud MacLeod, Vice President; Mary Marcroft, Secretary; Grace Shearsmith, Treasurer; and Peter Pihichyn, Member-at-large.

Gibsons Council has set aside $125,000 to upgrade Shaw Road. Planner Rob Buchan stated last week major upgrading was obviously necessary but the undertaking has been upgraded since the advent of the Ocean- mount subdivision which* he suggests, will become "Y.the number one subdivision oh the Sunshine Coast." Following close on Oceari- mouht's heels, the developer^ are beginning the initial work1 on its exclusive sister 'Georgia Mirage'. Both subdivisions contain high value units and residents will be using Shaw Road. It had been anticipated that money from the developers, added to funds budgeted by the town, would pay for the repaving. However, the calculations were done in 1988 and subsequent changes in the economic situation on the Sunshine Coast may have contributed to the unexpected high costs cited in the bids. BA Blacktop offered to do the job for $382,695 and Capilano Highways bid $342,630. Buchan said the bids have been referred to the town's engineers, Dayton and KnigJht who will go over themi and make a recommendation to council at this week's meeting. guidelines are being followed for their transportation and storage. "Most of the electrical equipment over 10 to 12 years old probably contains these liquids," he said. According to Roik, the "out- of-use electrical equipment" is being moved out of Construction Aggregates' former Hillside site because the land there has recently been sold. As soon as the company has received approval of storage in Colwood, he said, the capacitors wilf be bundled in plastic, then in 45 gallon steel drums with absorbant material surrounding them and then the whole thing will be placed within yet another steel container. Chem-Security, hazardous waster movers, who are the "most experienced", Roik said, will take charge of the operation and the capacitors will be shipped to Vancouver Island on a special "hazardous goods ferry", Y "The law requires|we store the capacitors indefinitely," Roik said, "until the;province can come to grips with hazardous waste." This "minute quantity" of PCBs, Roik said, will be moved in full compliance with federal regulations and guidelines and stored as specified by the province.
