Magistrate Charles C. Mittle- steadt presided in court at Sechelt. The charge against Joseph Latham, father of the dead lad ffpr failing to bury a dead human body without lawful excuse, still stands remanded until March 31. The body of young Latham was found by 22-year old Mike Euler of Port Mellon who was out picking salal. At the time of the lad's disappearance it was surmised he had drowned as his clothing was found oh the beach nearby. The remains were found partially buried under stones not far from the beach, in Port Mellon area. ; When the ��� case came up in court Tuesday morning a stay of proceedings against the juvenile was asked by the Crown without comment being offered. 4-day school week? , School Trustee W. P. Malcolm of Francis peninsula proposed at Monday night's school board meeting that the school week be limited to four days with an extra hour added per day. His aim he said was to give those attending school a longer weekend: He felt they were tied down too much with a five day week with homework and school activities and that they did not get enough time to enjoy themselves as children. He main tained children were losing their childhood and had no time to catch up at home. He wanted to reduce stresses. Chairman Joseph Horvath reading from the School act said the board could vary school hours according to local ^requirements but in no case must there be more than five hours daily. Superintendent Gordon Johnson favored the five day week. The result was the idea was talked out with no further action taking place. Money���board problem Wharfage hearings planned In view of the general situation regarding wharfage charges along the British Columbia coast the Gibsons wharfinger problem is now held up, it was announced at the last meeting of Gibsons municipal ..'council. In the meantime a review of small boat harbors has been approved by Transport Minister J. W. Pickersgill and he has asked Dr. T. G. How, department ' of transport regional director of air services to conduct hearings. Mr. Pickersgill has asked that Dr. How make himself available to receive briefs and) submissions from those directly interested: and to discuss this subject personally with groups and individuals as well. He has asked"."Dr. How to inquire and'report' upon the administration of public boat harbors, floats and other related facilities on the West Coast in- 'cluding the service provided to the public and the appropriate charges on vessels using the said facilities and to recommend changes to promote a more adequate and acceptable service to the public and a more efficient management and op- ertion of facilities. {Methods of school board financing were outlined at Monday night's meeting when a statement presented the board showed its. position relating to _S^ey;,_^iurementS'4o-thfc. endp of June. The statement showed that to cover payroll and accounts payable 7 $991,000 would be needed. Thie.position at the bank at the erict of February v was that the boat- was $6,000 overdrawn arid that revenue to the end! of June would total $206,000;: This would . leave $385,000 to ibe found by folfffowingr'���'���'������"��� ;This school board like all others depends on municipal councils to collect its taxes. Such taxes are not available uhtilJ July and August. In the meantime municipalities without reserves have to borrow at the bank to supply the school board with funds. Gibsons council in the past has been reluctant to pass oyer to the school board any sums of money before June. There have been indications from council that a payment will be made earlier this year. The board passed last year's financial statement'which showed a surplus of $34,000 and reappointed B. W._M. ,B6tie" as auditor.; ��� ,v -".,. ���r - "v:*^*^ It also learned that" tenders" may be called by the end of May for Gibsons and Elphinstone schools extensions which could be ready by the end of the year if tenders' are accepted. To help keep down breakages at. Langdale-the board decided to install lease lights '���'.on the grounds. 7. Trustee Malcolm, reported that he had been informed of bad language and smoking on buses from Elphinstone school. Plans will be checked to. see what can be done about improvement for the nurse clinic at Madeira Park Elementary school. At present a store room is )being used. The maintenance ���department was requested to keep track of car mileage on trucks used by the department so an estimate of such costs could be made. More rooms required The 7 district school board plans to meet with. representatives of the Sechelt Indian band ?tb ascertain numbers of pupils i involved in school enrollment of the fuititre. This was announc- ed at Monday night's school /board meeting. The situation at the lowest school level, kindergarten, is that there are actually 38 children in the present kindergarten _rom the band and Sechelt homes with the possibility of this figure increasing for next school year's kindergarten. Indian band mothers have responded enthusiastically to sending 20 of their children to grade one of Sechelt Elementary School and 30 to grade two. This has swelled grade one to a total of 50 and grade Jwo to 53. As these children progress into higher grades those grades will also increase. For example if the present grade two passes to grade three, this year's grade three now numbering 27 will be 53 next year plus *or minus pupils moving in or out of the school.. Pre-schoolers in the Indian band at present number 17 aged five, 12 aged four and 13 aged three. Present attendance ait the reserve school ranges from 30 in grade one to 16 in grade seven, iflaking a total of 158 pupils who could eventually foe included in present elementary school classes at Sechelt. The situation facing the Sechelt school will require the addition of two classrooms and in view of the department's tight hold over school construction two Portofab classrooms will be obtained covering a 24 month period at a cost of $290 a month each. This addition will be above three others required on the same terms with two going to Elphinstone school and one to the Elementary school. Trustees discussed briefly the possibility of obtaining further funds from the Indian department to cover the cost of Indian children's education. �� ai_ra_nn��mtt^^ MEMORIAL SERVICE Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. there will be a Memorial Service for Gov.

COME TO THE FABULOUS A Planning Study by Robert Williams and Associates of Vancouver We cannot, on the (basis of the investigations made so far, advise on the question of boundary extension. This would require a more detailed study of the villages resources and the costs and benefits of extension. The related questions of servicing and planning for a broader area would also have to be considered. If the village should be interested in .extending its boundaries and possibly re-organizing as a higher level municipality, a special study should be made. This would involve a report of a similar scale to the present one. REPLOTTING Outmoded and incomplete subdivision layouts threaten to impair development of several areas in the village. Some of these problems, including awkward and oversize lots, and lack of access and street continuity were indicated. In order to encourage more compact and efficient growth, we recommend that the three areas be replotted. While these areas are mostly vacant, some development properties would be affected. However, we do not believe that it would be necessary to move or demolish any existing houses in re-subdividing the areas. In view of the other planning TRAILER &.

Sunnycrest Shopping Centre ��� Ph. 8S&9689 and development needs of the village, replotting of these areas would not appear to be priority measures. However, the existing owners should be encouraged to re-subdivide on their own if they are interested in doing so. For the time being, we recommend that these areas be zoned for one and two family dwellings. After re-subdivision parts of areas should be re- zoned for multiple dwellings. WATERFRONT RENEWAL The development along the waterfront, particularly the section from School Road to Prowse Road, is unsightly and generally substandard in terms of structures and the accommodation provided. The main reasons for the poor conditions in this area would appear to lie more in the nature of the foreshore than in the area itself. The shallow and exposed character of the harbor has prevented the adjacent properties from being developed and redeveloped to 'a level and standard appropriate to their central location in Gibsons Landing. The foreshore while probably very adequate for the original cottage development must now, with the growth of commercial and industrial marine activities around the harbor, be considered a blighting influence. At the casual level, the - solution to the problem of substandard > development around the harbor lies/in improving the fereshore. This would mean deepening and protecting the harbor. We recommend that the Village seek the approval of the Province and apply to Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation for assistance under Section 23 of the National Housing Act for the. preparation of an Urban Renewal Scheme covering^ the waterfront area. This scheme would have to be carried out in conjunction with a harbor improvement program worked out with the Department of Public Works. The two would probably overlap both in term's of areas and type of works. We do not believe that it would be advisable for an urban renewal study under Section 33 of the National Housing Act to be carried out prior to preparing a scheme. The small size of the village and the generally good quality of development make this step unnecessary. The work involved in preparing this report and the new zoning 7 bylaw, ' plus 7 a simple property condition survey of the whole village should provide an adequate planning background for a scheme. At this stag^e we see the following general considerations being a part of an urban renewal scheme for the waterfront area:. 1. Rehabilitation measures, especially public improvements, rather than acquisition and clearance of .properties .would be the main action required. We believe thatv the" possibility of acquiring . only vthe riparian rights to the foreshore pf some properties should be investigated. ���;''������ 2. The village should try to use urban renewal assistance to create new commercial sites through land reclamation using the fill available from harbor dredging.operations. ..;.....:-77 ��� 3. Scheme proposals and operation should be closely integrated with the harbors improvements that may be carried' out by the Federal Government. These preliminary considerations have been drawn up with a view.towards keeping the financial outlay of the village to a minimum. We Would also point out that many routine improvements in the area would' qualify for 75% Federal-Provincial cost.; sharing under an urban renewal scheme. A more detailed discussion of this aspect of renewal is given in Appendix "A", "Provisions of Senior Government Assistance for Urban Renewal." On the basis of our firm's previous work in renewal elsewhere in the Province we would estimate that the cost of preparing a scheme for the waterfront area would be in the vicinity of $3000.00, of which the village would be responsible for 25% or about $750.00. Should Council wish to pursue the question of waterfront renewal we would be pleased to submit a detailed cost estimate for preparing a scheme.

For this reason,7 7 we 7 ibelieye there is some urgency to the' proposals for strengthening the commercial area and for securing an 'alternative highway routing. Regardless of the timing or exact location of the bypass we recommend that the Village request the Province to designate the waterfront drive route through to Gower Point and a new section connecting to the main highway. two miles west of Gibsons Landing as an alternate route for Highway 101. An alternate, scenic route through the village would lessen the adverse effects1 of a bypass, . particularly in respect to tourism. .The suggestion that the waterfront drive be renamed Marine Drive over its entire route is a good idea and could serve as anrappropriate address for; new development along the harbor. Some thought should be given to the alternate's route beyond Gibsons Landing. Scenic qualities -and the opening up of developable land are two considerations. It may be practical to develop a route at or near the waterfront .as far west as Wilson Creek. wmm ���V in trills tiiitii iiiililili SsMM John Barnes See me for your NEW and USED VOLKSWAGENS ���/ at ' .

I'm a teenaged "girl constantly plagued with acne on my forehead. I've been told this is due v to the bangs I wear oyer my forehead. True? J:. A. Could oe- The health of one's complexion is largely dependent. on the health and condition of one's hair and scalp. To control the oil and dirt m your bangs, wash them daily with pure castile baby soap with built-in hexalchlprophene, and use the same 7-ba'_ty^ 'soap on your/face to build up a protective^ bacteria barrier on the skin/rAnd when your skin needs 'protection from Chapping, or for a makeup base, use baby lotion with hexachlorophene. Q.7My cheeks, as a result of a recent siege of illness, are unusually thin and hollow. How can :I, make up to offset or counteract: this appearance? A. By applying a lighter shade of foundation in the hollows of your cheeks than on the rest of your face, you'll highlight them into greater prominence. Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q. Would it be all right for-, me to wear an evening gown to a dance even though my. date will be wearing a business suit? ������ A. Oftentimes the women in a \, -party will wear evening7 gowns to such affairs where the 7 men are dressed informally. However, no one girl should, do ���this on her own without first checking with ; the Kother .girls. Q. I'd like to wear an emerald instead of the traditional dia- i mond engagement ring, but ��� havebeen told this is not proper. What do you say? 7 A. I say you may wear any kind of ring you wish. In fact, ��� reveh if you wore no ring at all, you would be just as properly engaged. Q. Is one supposed to leave the spoon in the sherbet glass after one has finished eating this dessert? ������ A. No; place the spoon in the saucer under the sherbet glass. , .-''���' -7 . Q. If a girl is being married in church wearing only an afternoon dress and Shaving only one attendant, is she then supposed to invite only a very, few friends arid relatives to this type of wedding?

What comments do you have on the care and treatment of hair that is almost baby-fine in texture? A. This type of hair is not necessarily dry hair (even though it looks it), but it is hard to manage and often will not hold a good setting. To help, at least temporarily, use castile shampoos or sulphonat- ed shampoos, which add body and manageability by depositing a residue on the hair. For this kind of hair, a permanent is a must. And also, hair-dyeing, has a way of adding body. Q. When one is on a-reducing diet, does it make any difference at all how the daily intake of calories is divided among _ the three ' meals? A. No. Just be sure to hold your daily calorie allowance to not more than that prescribed by your doctor as a safe reduction schedule for you. Q. How can I quickly dull an unusual shine on my nose? A. You can usually blot this up in short order with a piece of cotton that has been squeezed out in cold water.

In about 75. years the ; size of Canada has shrunk enormous-- ly, and with it the relative cost of transport. It has become far easier. to move goods, people ideas and information between parts of Canadla. Despite this, an .Economic Council of Canada staff study, Interregional Disparities in Inr come, by S7 E. Chernick, shows that the differences in averaige per capita incomes .between the regions; have scarcely! changed. To illustrate this point the council requested the geographic branch of the department ^of mines and technical surveys to prepare these maps, scaled- to the reduction in transcontinental travel time. In 1893, it took 115 hours for a train fueled by wood and coal to travel from Montrearto Vancouver. By 1935 trains burning coal only had reduced the elapsed time to 93 hours.
