About one thousand fishermen put lines in the water  and caught a total of two thousand dogfish. \"We are really  pleased how well it went over,\" said organizer John Smith.  ' The participation from the village was just tremendous.''  The three top prizes in the event were won by youngsters.  Brad Ellis of Burnaby won the top prize with a dogfish that  weighed in at fifteen pounds eight and a half ounces. Brad  said that he planned to buy himself a boat with his prize money  of $1,000. The winning fish was one of two caught by Brad and  was hooked at three in the afternoon. Second prize went to  David Shirley of Vancouver fishing out of the same boat as the  winner. His fourteen pound fifteen ounce dogfish was the only  fish he hooked.   The first place fish were caught in Tunstall  Bay-  In contrast with the fortunate winners was the luck of local  lads Ralph Henderson and Gary Berdahl who caught fifty-nine  and forty-six fish respectively but failed to win a prize.  Karla Nygren of Gibsons took third place money with a dogfish of fourteen pounds eleven ounces. Karla caught her fish  early and stood in first place for most of the day before Ellis  and Shirley got in from Gambier Island just before closing time.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd X The hidden weight prizes of $50.00 each went to Orval  Shogun, five pounds one ounce; Mr. Beaulieu, twelve pounds  seven ounces; the crew ofthe Crosby one pound seven ounces;  Brian Eldridge, nine pounds five ounces; M. Peterson, two  pounds four ounces; Ralph Jones, eight pounds two ounces;  K. Leroux, four pounds fourteen ounces; Ian Ross, seven  pounds eight ounces; T. Richardson, seven pounds eight  ounces; Gary Maddern, four pounds three ounces.  Booby prize for the biggest salmon caught during the Dogfish  Derby was won by Mr. Arman whose salmon weighed in at  four pounds fifteen ounces.  The success ofthe event makes it a sure fire annual event  and organizers are optimistic about future Dogfish Derbies.

A complaint  in Sechelt  Sechelt Village Council heard  a lengthy complaint from R.A.  Moorcroft of Seaside Village  about debris and other sources of  annoyance in Seaside Village,  Listed by Moorcroft were stump  piles, two halves of a modular  home, a concrete mix truck, and  a concrete batch plant which  litter the Glenmont subdivision.  The matter of the unsightly  conglomeration was initially  brought before the council at a  June meeting and Moorcroft said  that the understanding of the  neighbourhood at that time was  that a start on the clean-up was  to begin at that time. To date,  two months later, nothing has  been done.  Council said that they could  not accede to a request that the  stump piles be trucked away  for burning since it would be  about four or five times more expensive to do so. Further it was  not thought that the burning  could take place until September  because of the current dry conditions. Council learned that  Stan James is out of the. picture  as far as negotiations with Glenmont Holdings is concerned. A  Mr. Krippen is now the person  to contact on matters concerning  that company..  Moorcroft said he had talked  with Krippen and that it was  Krippen's understanding that  council had assumed responsibility for the clearing up.  \"It's been a headache for the  council since the word go,\" said  Alderman Thompson. \"We are  going to make sure that this kind  of thing doesn't happen again.\"  Traffic accidents head police news  The Gibsons Shoppers Bus Jim Mullens has- been the  began operation last Thursday at driver both times, after\\finishing  10:00  ai.m.   from7N<^^ \"       >  a.rn^ ^  ^h\ufffd\ufffd-4stthe* -second  The feeling on the bus was  very pleasant, it gave neighbours  attempt for  this facility in the village; six  years ago it was tried unsuccessfully, the route at that time had  been from Gibsons around Gower  Point and back to Gibsons 30  minutes later.  i turst trip wag fayourfcblv. im-XJiiSie- and a nlace\/ftfr visit and  ssed and was sure that^this turned a shopping excursion into'  presses  time would be a winner. ,X  On route One the bus left  North Road for Langdale r where it  picked 7 up its. first passenger,  Ruby Keller. She was more than  happy as she had had to walk  into Gibsons the day before.  Another eleven people flagged  the bus down between Langdale  and Downtown Gibsons. One  woman had come by boat from  Gambier with her two children.  : The second route was from the  Sunnycrest Mall, down Pratt to  Chaster, along Chaster to Gower,  then followed the shoreline to  the lower village and back to the  mall, eighteen passengers were  an occasion.  Some of the comments from the  passengers were indicative, of  their appreciation. One woman  who had used the bus six years  ago said, \"Hello Jim, nice to see  you back,\" while another said  that she had been thinking about  it all week.  The schedule may need a bit  of streamlining as it allows a bit  too much time between pick up  points, but this is a very minor  criticism and can be easily corrected in time.

The great water debate  For. . .  The controversial question off  the tfe-ln off the Gibsons and  Regional District's water systems  was aired again at the council  meeting held on August loth.  The matter was raised In \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd letter  from Mrs. D. Strom of Shaw  Road in Gibsons. The letter is  quoted below:  ATTENTION:  Mayor and mem-  ben off Gibsons Village Council.  As a village taxpayer I am appalled at the behaviour of some  other taxpayers in this area. They  have taken a firm stand against  the tie-in of Village water with  that of the Regional District  system.  The Dayton & Knight report  clearly states that our present  sources will require supplementing in four or five years. That  will only be a start, and do they  think for one moment that it will  be less costly to the taxpayers in  the Village to take the brunt of it  all? I cannot help but feel that  because they are not suffering  from a shortage of water at the  moment, and because they have  good pressure, they couldn't care  about us, who have to put up with  an inadequate system.  As an example the following  are just a few of the things' I  have to put up with:  1. It takes between 20 minutes  to half an hour to fill a washing  machine.  2. I can't flush the toilet when a  tap is on in the house.  * Please turn to page 7  and against  The other side off the issue is  presented    here   by   long-time  Gibsons resident, Les Peterson:  By L.

The majority \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd but not all - of  the Village councillors are in  favor of disposing of your municipal water system forthwith to  the Sechelt Regional District.  A report prepared for this regional district indicates that the'  Gibsons municipal water system  cannot be made adequate without  a degree of upgrading implied  to be beyond your means.  The . suggestion being put  forward by the regional district  and endorsed by most Gibsons  councillors is that you should  favor handing over your system  because it is inadequate for your  needs.  If you dispose of your municipal  system, you relinquish control of  not only all existing pipes,  springs, reservoirs, wells, and  pumps, but also of all future development of any wells in your  village and district.  You would lose control of all  future distribution of water from  both present and future wells  irretrievably.

This one is located by the Sechelt Elementary School.  Sunshine Kilometres mark highway  A new feature along the Sunshine Coast Highway these days  is the Sunshine Kilometre  markers. At present the markers  mark off every even numbered  kilometre from Langdale the entire length of the Sunshine Coast  and are designed to make it  easier for tourists and local  people alike to locate the various  hospitality units along the coast.  The markets were erected by  the Sunshine Coast chapter of the  B.C. Motel and Trailer Park  Association.   Spokesman for the  association, John Kavanaugh of  the Cedars Inn, observed that  already the kilometres were  proving useful to travellers up  the coast. Kavanaugh said that  donations towards the expense of  the markers were made by all  three of the district's Chamber of  Commerce organizations with  over half being contributed by  local members of the B.C. Motel  and Trailer Park Association.  Permission was granted by  B.C. Hydro for the use of their  poles.   The only gap along the  highway occurs at Redrooffs Road  where the hydro poles leave the  highway. Kavanaugh said that it  is possible, because of the success of the project already, that  additional markers may be placed  to mark the odd numbered kilometres.  The marking of the kilometres  places the enterprise three weeks  ahead of the provincial Department of Highways in the jnatter  of switching from miles to kilometres.  delivered to EVERY address on the Sunshine Coast every Tuesday) Coast News, August 23,1977.,  A CO-OPERATIVELY AND LOCALLY OWNED NEWSPABER  Published at Gibsons, B.

Chamber contributes  CNA  The Gibsons and District Chamber of  Commerce has only been in existence in  its present incarnation since June but  has marked up some impressive achiev-  ments.   Most prominent perhaps is the  recently  completed  first  ever  Dogfish  Derby.  It was quite simply a marvellous  idea.   Offbeat enough to be interesting  and because of the ease with which the  pest of the coast can be caught it promised a satisfying high success opportunity for the participants.   Ecologically,  too, it caught the attention and won the  approval of the Fisheries and Environment people.   It's a natural winner and  great good fun for all concerned.   From  its initial success it would appear that the  Dogfish Derby will go on to bigger and  better things and all credit to those who  conceived the idea and brought it successfully to life.  The second notable achievement 'is  another idea so right that one wonders  where it had been heretofore.    A less  splashy affair than the Dogfish Derby  but one which would seem to fill a definite lack in the life of the community.  We refer of course to the new shopper's  bus service serving the upper mall and  the lower village areas. One wonders  what took so long. Sechelt has had a  shopper's bus for years and it is a service  which is well-used and much appreciated  by those who do their shopping in the  sister village.  Overdue or otherwise, the fact is that  the bus service has been instituted and  on its initial run was utilized by some  thirty people, all of them grateful for  the service and the Chamber of Commerce deserve much credit for the; implementation of the idea.  In its short existence, then, the Chamber of Commerce has given the village  an annual event of some considerable  class and provided a much-needed service. Congratulations, ladies and gentlemen, and keep those good ideas coming.  The rains came  The rains came back to the Sunshine  Coast last weekend, decently delaying  until the Dogfish Derby had run its  course. And who among us did not welcome the familiar damp grayness and  the cooling precipitation? It's been a  fine, hot summer but too much of a good  thing is too much of a good thing. Only  the most hardened and insensitive sun  worshipper could refuse to welcome the  coolness and the rain and gardeners  everywhere must be breathing a considerable sigh of relief.  ^ . a . ^,.^** ;.L\"  In any given controversy it is expected  that a community newspaper will have an  opinion and will express it, preferably in  readable form and without too much  beating around the bush. We here at  the Coast News endeavour to fill these  requirements. There is no illusion here,  however, of editorial infallibility. An  editor's opinion is but the opinion of one  man and will be limited in value by that  man's knowledge of several diverse  areas of interest and his experience  generally.  We feel that providing a forum for  community debate is one of the most  important aspects of our work and these  pages are available for the expression of  the opinions of the community. A case  in point this week is the two differing  opinions in print on the question of the  Gibsons tie-in with the Regional Board  water system. One from Mrs. Strom  details the problems faced by residents  of the upper village with the present  water service. The other, from long-time  and respected resident Les Peterson  presents a forceful argument against  the tie-in.  We welcome these statements, and we  welcome the letters to the editor. It is  the conviction here that a newspaper  should have many voices and not be  merely the vehicle of any one man's  views. So keep those letters coming. If  you have a gripe or an observation to  make on community affairs pick up a pen  or sit down at a typewriter and let us  have it. Communication, preferably  two-way, is what we are all about.    ;j.  ..from the files of Coast News  5 YEARS AGO  Tagged Monarch butterflies are being  released in Gibsons area by the University of Toronto Monarch butterfly research department. It is hoped that  knowledge will be gained of West Coast  migration routes of these butterflies to  wintering sites in California and Mexico.  Any persons seeing one are asked to  wish it well and let it go on its way.  Do you feel guilty when you slap together peanut butter sandwiches and  milk for you family's lunch? Do you feel  you should spend more time fixing them  something more nourishing? According  to the Consumer's Association of Canada,  five ounces of peanut butter will provide  a 10 year old with his daily allowance of  protein.  10YEARS AGO  RCMP report that with school days  approaching they are going to make a  closer check on dogs and those not  tagged can be removed and shot.  Classified notice: To person or persons who removed steer head from gate  on Sunshine Coast Highway, please  return same and avoid prosecution.   .  15 YEARS AGO  Late   July   saw   completion   of   Port  Mellon's   new  power  supply  and  dis  tribution system.

Letters to the Editor: Years ago small  communities were described as a place  where they take in the sidewalks after  dark. Gibsons can't be accused of such  a nefarious practice because it has none.  This is purely an automobile village,  pedestrians are a forgotten and neglected  breed.  20YEARSAGO  Saturday's 'worst in memory' thunder  storm left thousands of dollars damage  in its wake when it rolled up West Howe  Sound starting fires and crippling communications as it went.

It is said to have been  the worst storm in 43 years.  25 YEARS AGO  A new school building is to be constructed immediately at the Indian  Residential School in Sechelt.

Clayton Collection and Elphinstone Pioneer Museum.  L. R. Peterson  Musings  John Burnside  I was sitting in a sleazy little  apartment on the second floor of  a three storey house full of such  apartments on the corner of At-''  water and St. Catherine Street  on a summer night in 1956.    It  was an aimless youthful Saturday  night with little money and girls  and dates and dances still lay  ahead of me like a vast and unexplored continent of experience. -  The apartment belonged to my .  little wizened friend of weight-  lifting days, Hughie Mark; and  the show we were watching was a  summer replacement for Jackie  Gleason and Art Carney whose  Honeymooners was then  in its  first go round as the hit of the  television year.  The summer replacement was a low-key, bland  hood and the glimpses of his  latter years, roaming his palatial  estate in increasingly dangerous'  derangement are pitiful indeed.  Those glimpses of a fat neurotic  terrified of the inevitable aging  and the long series of pathetically  bad movies do much to obscure  already a millionaire singer. But  there was little about him as a  human being to admire.  The brown three storey house  has long gone. On its site now  stands the Atwater terminal of  the Montreal subway system and  Saturday nights hockey fans pour  Slings & Arrows  George Matthews  the tremendous impact the man  out of there and into the Mon-  had in those far away years.  Elvis was a terrible actor and  he made terrible movies. Even  died-in-the-wool Elvis fans stopped going to see them and went  when they did only to see him  sing. He was not a creative  talent. If he ever wrote any  songs they have been mercifully  forgotten. But Elvis could sing.  No one before or since did what  he did best any better than he  variety:. show hosted by; Tommyj^did it. ^ That exuberant driving  and Jimmy Dorsey withjh_ttle^^j?rhythm fueled my \"first dancing  recommend. it unless you were  young and poor in the city summertime.  The   fifties   were   still   pretty  formless and the show, itself was  out of time hearkening back as it  did to the big band era of the  forties.    I think it was Tommy  Dorsey who did the introductions  and I remember idly noticing as  he stepped up to introduce an  act halfway through the  bland  hour that he had the smirk of a  man who had something up his  sleeve.   I cannot now remember '.  what was said but suddenly there  he was like a personification of  sullen,    vital   arrogance,    Elvis '.  : Presley. He sang two songs. The ;  first  was   \"You   Ain't  Nothing.;  But a Hound Dog\" and if memory .  serves me well the second was  \"Heartbreak Hotel\"  and  hard-  driving rhythm and blues had got  out of the ghettoes and into the  living   rooms   of   white   North  America.   It is simply true that .  one was immediately aware that \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  here    was    something    special. .  Everybody knew it.    Something ;  definitive was happening.   Rock  and   roll  was   being  born  and  awaited only its name.  More than twenty years later  it is easy to overlook or belittle '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  the  impact of his  appearance.  In two decades of leaping, posturing sensuality in front of rock ,  groups   has   become   almost   a'  cliche.  Elvis was the first.   Who  remembers that that frosty old  bore, Ed Sullivan, who somehow  lasted twenty consecutive years  on prime time television refused  to have Elvis the Pelvis on his;  show  because  his  performance'  was obscene and when the man's  huge popularity made it necessary for Sullivan to compormise  be treated us to the absurdity of  a singer who could only be photographed from  the waist up  to  protect our morals.  From that first appearance on  the Tommy Dorsey show Elvis  Presley dominated the popular  music field as no one has since.  His records were one, two and  three at the top of the popular  music hit parade; the same  records were one, two and three  at the top of the country and  western hit parade.    The man  defied  classification  and  dominated everything.  They packaged him, of course.  A man called Col. Tom Parker  became his manager and Elvis  Presley became not much more  than a puppet, an overgrown and  perpetual adolescent.   He never j  did make the transition to adult-''  ' parties   and   coloured   the   con-  : sciousness of a generation.  Elvis was the King of rock and  roll. Pretenders to the throne  came and went but .when he  turned it on he was untouchable  and neither the terrible movies  nor the pathos of his end should  be allowed to obscure the man's  colossal stature as an entertainment figure. Success has  been aptly called the bitch goddess and nowhere in the world is  that more true than it is in North  America and no one more aptly  demonstrates that truth than did  the one time truck driver from  Tennessee.  Elvis didn't grow. There is  little incentive to grow if you are  making millions of dollars for  doing very little. It could be said  that his first appearance was at  the very pinnacle of his achievement. He dominated' his field  from the very beginning but  little of substance was added to  his repertoire from the beginning.  He cared enough for his music  to take voice lessons when he was  treal Forum on the other side of  - Atwater Street. There is no  reason to regret its going. It  was remarkable in my life only  because it coincided with the first  breathtaking appearance of a new  music and the man who remained  its foremost practitioner. Since  that summer night I have danced  thousands of miles, dreamed and  drank and tried to grow.  It is a kindness to refuse to  remember his end, fat, tired and  absurd; it is a kindness to forget  the dreadful woodenness of his  acting. The way I will remember  him was the way he appeared for  the first time on that humdrum  television show swaggering, uninhibited and alive. What Tommy  Dorsey introduced that night was  the death knell of Tommy Dor-  sey's kind of music, smoothly  orchestrated and irretrievably  bland. Elvis swept it away virtually single handedly.  I am not a man prone to hero  worship yet the death in Tennessee last week moved me strangely. It was indeed the end of an  era in the entertainment field  and marked with the finality of  death the end of my youth. I  did not admire the man but he  was associated with that youth,  with carefree, hopeful days. The  news of his death made me feel  a little older and a little lonelier  in some strange way and 1 would  have it said now without sentimentality and without shame that  I was an Elvis Presley fan. \"Men  are we and must greive\/ When  even the shade of that which once  was great\/ Has passed away.\"  from The Prophet  by Kahlil Gibran  And a woman who held a babe against  her bosom said, Speak to us of Children.  And he said:  Your children are not your children.  They are the sons and daughters of Life's  longing for itself.  They come through you but not from  you,  And though they are with you yet they  belong not to you.  You may give them love but not  your thoughts,  For they have their own thoughts.  You may house their bodies but not  their souls,  For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,  which you cannot visit, not even in  your dreams.  Your may strive to be like them, but seek  not to make them like you.  For life goes not backward nor tarries  with yesterday.  You are the bows from which your children  as living arrows are sent forth:  The archer sees the mark upon the path  ofthe infinite, and He bends you with His  might that His arrows may go swift and far.  Let your bending in the archer's hand  be for gladness;  For even as He loves the arrow that flies,  so He loves also the bow that is stable.  A small item in the Vancouver  Son last week and the impending  arrival of September has got me  thinking  about  teaching  school  again.    As far as vacation time  is concerned teachers are pretty  well off but if most teachers are  like   me   they   spend   the   first  month of the summer vacation  trying to unwind and becoming  human again and the last month  getting all wound up again for  the new year.    Just how far a  fellow   can   get   unwound   was  graphically shown last week when  Mr. Crane generously pointed out  a    most   flagrant    grammatical  '   error in my column.  Here was 1,  (or is.it me?) the tireless guardian  of the English language caught  out, in a  moment of linguistic  laziness, allowing my  unwound  brain to permit the most fundamental of grammatical faux pas.  The   Yukon    school    system    is  surely  fortunate  to   have   been  able to acquire Mr. Crane. Thank  you Alan.  In   any   case,   the   time   has  come to get wound up again and  right on schedule a number of  random   pedagogical   considerations have been creeping into my  thinking.     The  Vancouver  Sun  item I referred to earlier reported  an incident in the B. C. Legislature in which the young pages,  high school students who carry  messages,    water,    documents,  etc. for our hard pressed MLA's  in the legislative assembly, asked  permission of the government to  be allowed to doff their heavy  jackets during periods of extreme  heat.      The   Socred   members,  through   the   Speaker   of   the  House,   the   quick   witted   Mr.  Smith, refused to honour the request on the grounds that  removing the jackets would seriously threaten the decorum of the  Assembly.   It occurred to me as  I read the item that the attitude  of the government members reflected in many ways the whole  attitude the Social Credit mentality   has  towards  children   in  general.   No teacher that I know  of would permit such crass treatment of children in  their own  classroom.    They  may allow a  great deal of mental discomfort  from   time   to  time,   education  being in part a process designed  to help people overcome mental  discomfort,   but   physical    discomfort,   allowing   children   to  work in extreme heat or extreme  cold for example, is simply not  tolerated.    The whole thrust of  the  Socred  education policy  is  that children should be seen and  not heard, they don't know what's  good for them, they are somehow  imperfect adults who must have  things \"done\" to them whether  they like it or not.  Some other summer random  thinking has led me to suspect,  not for the first time, that \"education\" or the acquisition of  knowledge is not really what the  modern school is all about.  Consider for a moment, (as you  can see, my summer random  thoughts are pretty vague) that  knowledge, at any point in time,  is a finite thing. That it is a  certain body of thinking which  could be cataloged and identified  as being separately definable,  despite being abstract. If a  teacher were to take some part  of this definable knowledge and  share it with one other person  who is seeking to acquire it,  that person, given the natural  inefficiencies of transmitting  knowledge or the condition of the  knowledge of the teacher (always  less than perfect), will be able to  acquire some considerable part  of the learning.  On the other hand, take that  finite segment of knowledge and  try to spread it thinly over twenty  .or thirty people who vary v in  attitude from interest to downright hostility to the acquisition  of knowledge and the results  will be something far short of  satisfactory. To acquire knowledge there must first of all be a  recognition that such a think  exists. Secondly, there must be  an intense and passionate desire  to acquire it. If this desire exists,  teachers, as we know them, are  unnecessary. The person seeking  knowledge will find his teachers  where he can and certainly not  necessarily in a school.  If education is in fact the  acquisition of knowledge then  our schools' do not necessarily  have much to do with education.  Certainly the schools teach children to read, write and count but  knowledge is something else;  knowledge is \"knowing\" and  while people can, if they really  want to, learn to \"know\" you can  not teach people to know. In  fact, there are very few people  in the world who are interested  in knowledge but for some reason, actually many diverse reasons, we insist on sending every  child to school. The school  helps separate the conformists  from the non-conformists, it imposes ' some acceptable social  patterns on its graduates and,  with greater or lesser success,  prepares children for the world  of work and living.  School itself provides many  useful social functions. It provides some desperately needed  relief for housebound' mothers,  it provides a sphere of competitive activity for child-proud  fathers and it provides a dependable child-minding service for  working families. It also, of  course, provides a convenient  scrapegoat for the unsuccessful  child. The best thing school  does however, and the reason  I'll show up again this year, is  to teach all the participants  something about the treatment of  people. The treatment of people  is, after all, what education is.  Every minute of every school  day students and teachers alike  are treating people in different  ways and if we can create an  atmosphere of kindness, respect,  understanding, tolerance and  yes, even love, then school is  worth every dollar and every  minute we invest in it. Take my  word for it, when the heat of the  September classrooms becomes  unbearable, the kids in my classroom and those of my colleagues  won't have to ask permission to  take off their jackets.

(Special)\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  An amazing new \"super-charged\"  vitamin E-Pill has recently been  developed that reportedly \"quickly  increases and rejuvenates sexual  drives and potency for both men  and women of all ages. It also  makes them feel healthier and  more youthful\". It is now available to the American public.  The new high potency E-Pill  not only seems to increase sexual  ability of both sexes but also \"actually perks up sexual interest and  stimulates a persons desires,\" according to a spokesman for the  manufacturer.  ALSO IMPROVES GENERAL HEALTH  This new, easy-to-take E-Pill  contains newly formulated, highly  concentrated vitamin E. It tends  to quickly build up and strengthen  the natural physiological processes  of the body that are believed to  be basically responsible for its  potency, youthfulness, health and  long life.  HELPS 4 OUT OF 5 PEOPLE  Indications are that the new  E-Pill gives quick arid effective  results to as high as 4 out of 5  people (80% ) who have used it.  Some people report no great  change but feel the high potency  of vitamin E in the pill does  quickly make them feel better  from a general health standpoint.  Other reports also show it tends  to \"lessen daily tension and give  a more relaxed, happier outlook  on life.\"  NOW AVAILABLE  The use of these high potency  (one-a-day) E-Pills is perfectly  safe and are now available without prescription from the manufacturer by mail order only.

I apologise  sincerely for the behaviour  of some of the residents of  Grantham's Landing, most of  whom are my elders. The Board  members gave up their Saturday  night to talk to us. They really  didn't get to do much talking.  I admire their patience, tact,  and self-control. I know what I  would have done had I been  called a liar several times.  Mr. Mulligan has no reason to lie  to us. The Gibsons Volunteer  Fire Department and the Garibaldi Health Unit have no reason  to lie to us...we are not that  important. All these groups can  survive quite nicely without us.  Some of us tried to listen to our  trustees and the Board, we asked  intelligent and pertinent quest-  ' ions when it was quiet enough to  be heard. Some other interrupted, hurled accusations  (\"You're trying to steal our  water!\"), and made personal  remarks at other attending the  meeting. Because the Board  came to talk to us they were  accused of \"trying to talk us into  it\". Were those disrupters afraid  that the other people might hear  what was said and make their own  decision?  The Committee for Grantham's  Water requested a special meeting - \"so we could all hear what  negotiations were going on  between our trustees and the  Regional    Board\". Certain  factions at that meeting made it  almost impossible for the speakers to be heard. Miss West is  quoted by this newspaper as  saying,' 'We are not here to listen  to any guests\".  Someone there did not even  appreciate that water runs downhill. They couldn't see how increased sewage 'from uphill could  affect our water supply at. the  bottom ofthe hill.  We are having a referendum  on September 10, 1977, much to  the chagrin of the summer resident who will not be allowed an  absentee vote. It didn't seem  to matter that permanent residents might be away on holiday  in August. I would like all of you  who have a vote to think abut all  the five year olds who look forward to 65 more years of drinking  water, but do not have Ihe right to  vote. .  Your  paper  stated  that  our*  water was of good quality. There  was a written statement from  the Health Unit read at that  meeting which stated that our  water was \"unsatisfactory\".  I feel you should investigate  this and either retract that statement or explain that letter.  Lynda Olsen,  Granthams Landing.  Editor:  Commenting on your editorial  and front page diatribe in the  Coast News of August 16,1977.  I would like to point out to  you that the August 13 meeting  at Granthams Landing was1 requested by- - a number \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd of concerned residents for the purpose  of discussing the disposal of the  assets of Granthams Landing  Improvement District. Our biggest asset being, of course, our  Water System.  WHY did the Trustees invite  guest speakers to this meeting?  The Trustees should have called  a Special Meeting for this purpose approximately a year ago.  At that time they were approached by the Regional Board to  abandon (not \"tie-in\") our water  system and go Regional. OR did  the Trustees make the first  move? This is unclear. The community deserves to know. THAT  was the time to have the Regional  proposal explained to us, NOT at  this late date. THAT was the  time for Special guest speakers.  Yes, I was rude at the August  13 meeting - INTENTIONALLY  SO! The shock treatment did  succeed in having the meeting  vote almost unanimously to resolve the future of Grantham's  water by REFERENDUM.  Whichever way the referendum  vote goes, DEMOCRACY has  won out. UP WTTH DEMOCRACY!  Edna West  Disorderly  Editor:  Anyone who attended the  meeting-at the Grantham's Landing Community Hall on August  13, will agree that it was rude,  disputatious and disorderly.  These facts were amply recorded  on page one of your paper. But  why use your editorial columns  for the very same purpose? It  seems to me your editorial page  of August 16, should consider the  equities of the old versus the new  water supply, ventilate and illuminate the problem and try to  preate an atmosphere in which a  meaningful referendum can be  conducted.  This your editorial did not do.  What it did was scold Grantham's  Landing residents for being so  rude as to oppose. When a paper  begins name calling it has moved  into the propaganda field. It  no longer serves it's community.  May I suggest that when you go.  to press again that you drop your  condescending tone. People, who  oppose are net red-necks, irrationals - they are people who have  a meaningful stake in their community and want to be heard.  Let's hear them and let's hear  them in the editorial columns of  a co-operatively and locally  owned newspaper.

The delay at the beginning of  the meeting occurred because the  Chairman would not let me make  the referendum motion till forced  to.

THE PARODY PURVEYORS  My first exposure to the world  of satire came at an early age.  1 was about eight when my brother and I were taken to visit our  great-aunt Christie, a diminutive  maiden lady of advanced years  who lived alone in a small rock-  gardened house in the town of  Tygate, Berkshire. My chief  reason for remembering this  obscure event lay in Aunt Christie's library where she kept,  bound in red-leather, a complete  set of the English satirical magazine Punch, dating back to the  1830's. I spent almost the entire  visit browsing randomly through  endless pages of tiny print and  incomprehensible political cartoons roasting half-forgotten  ministers and long-dead issues.  Despite 'my inability to understand exactly what was being  parodied, it was obviously some  form of humour. Over the years,  it would become my favourite  form.  Magazine satire has come a  long way since those hoary issues  of Punch. There are some who  would say that it has gone entirely  too far. * Punch itself, still alive  and kicking after almost a century  and a half, has metamorphosed  into a slick, witty, topical journal  that seeks its targets in many  areas far removed from the political arena. Some of its material  would curl the hair of the staid  Victorians who made up its original audience. Those same Victorians would' expire from apoplexy were they to peruse another  English satirical publication called Private Eye. This magazine  draws the line almost nowhere  when it comes to spoofing the  contemporary scene and has col- -  lected several law-suits for its  trenchant iconoclasm.  My first real appreciation of  the lampoonist's art however,  came about in the early Fifties,  when I stumbled across my first  issues of the trailblazing Mad.  Fpr its first two dozen numbers,  Mad was an ordinary-sized, four-  colour comic-book but its resemblance to any other comic ended  with the superficial similarities.  First of its kind in the often-bland  world of comic-magazines, Mad  purveyed flatout satire of a wildly  original nature. Nothing remotely like it had ever been attempted  before and it commandeered an  Pages from a Li\ufffd\ufffde-Log  Peter Trower  almost-immediate   following   of  avidly-enthusiastic fans.  The original Mad was almost  entirely the brainchild of an offbeat genius named Harvey Kurtz-  man. -A cartoonist himself with  a jerky, eccentric style, Kurtzman  created Mad for William Gaines'  innovative E.C. comics line. E.C.  had revolutionized the comicbook industry by eschewing the  usual stereotypes for adult plotting and realistic character-development in their several titles.  Man however, was to be their  greatest and most-lasting contribution to the fields of both  comics and satire.  The first few issues of Mad  were a bit ambiguous as through  Kurtzman had not decided in  which direction he should take  the book but by the sixth number,  a definite plan of attack had begun to emerge. With three of  the best cartoonists in the business - Jack Davis, Bill Elder and  Wally Wood - illuminating his  truly-inspired layouts and scripts,  Kurtzman began to present  parodies that were funnier and  more outrageous than anything  seen previously. One of the chief  objects of Kurtzman's attention  in the salad-days of Mad was the  other comics themselves. He burlesqued them brilliantly in such  classic satires as Mickey Rodent,  St archie, ManduckThe Magician,  Prince Violent and others, too  numerous to mention. These insane takeoffs, generally done by  Bill Elder or Wally Wood in styles  often indistinguishable from  those of the original artists, remain uproarious today. But  Kurtzman did not confine himself to the comics. He turned the  searchlight of his acerbic wit on  everything from the MacCarthy  witch-hunt hearings to tabloid  newspapers and Alice in Wonderland. The technique was eminently successful and Mad's circulation soared.  Satire was suddenly big business and E.C.'s rivals were quick  to take note of the fact. A host  of copycat publications with  names like Nuts, Bughouse and  Flip, sprang into being overnight  and sank just as \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd rapidly into;  limbo again.

Entitled Panic, it  employed the same artists but it  lacked Kurtzman at the helm and  inevitably went under too. Mad  however, continued to prosper.  With its 24th issue, it was expanded to the black and white,  magazine-size format, it retains  to this day. Kurtzman however,  was soon to part company with  the magazine. Several issues  into the new incarnation of Mad,  he quit over a policy-dispute with  Gaines and his place was .taken  by Al Feldstein who had edited  Panic.  Without Kurtzman, Mad might  well have been expected to  flounder but it had captured its  audience and they were not about  to leave. Also Al Feldstein was  nobody's fool. He hired new  artists and writers and vastly  expanded the scope of the book.  It continued to attract new  readers and for many years, rewarded them with high-quality  satire. Eventually, however, it  lost its bite and slipped into a  sort of middle-of-the-road rut  where it remains to this day.  Kurtzman went into several  other endeavours after leaving  the magazine he had almost  singlehandedly created. Initially,  he was engaged by Hugh Hefner  at Playboy to produce a slick,  big-budget satire book called  Trump. Kurtzman had brought  Bill Elder and Jack Davis with  him from E.C. and they turned  out two memorable issues. Then  Hefner's bankers talked him out  of the endeavour as not being  economically feasible and the  magazine was cancelled. Kurtzman and his cohorts then formed  their own company and produced  another parody book called Humbug. This was also a noble endeavour but it suffered crippling  circulation and financial problems  from the start and died with the  eleventh number. From here  Kurtzman, still in company with  Davis and Elder, went to Warren  Publishing to front yet another  milestone of parody called Help.  This book was more successful  than the others and lasted about  two years. Finally, Kurtzman and  Elder- returned.to Playboy to  create the continuing satirical  strip called Little Annie Fanny.  They produce the strip still and  were for awhile, assisted by Jack  Davis before he graduated to  doing movie-ads, T.V. commercials and covers for T.V. Guide  and Time magazine.  In 1970, the satirical forces  set in motion by Kurtzman and  the others culminated in what is  probably the most successful  and certainly the most utterly-  uninhibited parody magazine of  all time. Actually, the National  Lampoon is an almost direct  spinoff, pf the venerable Harvard  Lampoon which has been turning-  out college-based satire for over  a century. For some years prior  to this, the Harvard Lampoon  editors had been producing for  general   distribution,   elaborate  parodies of such magazines as  Time, Life and Cosmopolitan.  The growing commercial success  of these ventures and the burgeoning popularity of satire in  general, led to the creation of  the National Lampoon.  To adequately describe this  publication would- take more  time, space and freedom of  speech than I am allowed in this  particular forum. Suffice to say  that in the Lampoon, all that has  come before reaches its apex  and goes beyond. It is not advisable to read this magazine  'if one is easily shocked or of a  prudish bent for all the barriers  are down. It is hardcore satire  and it is strong meat.  I have not bothered to mention  the second-string parody magazines such as Cracked or Crazy.  Everything pales beside the sheer  audacity of the National Lampoon  which once did a withering spoof  on Mad, its ailing predecessor.  Satire lives and the Victorians  spin in their graves.  Gentle fun  by Joan Warn  Hundreds of Lord Byng High  School students remember Lyman  Meadows as their principal arid  especially for the humour and the  cartoons with which he enlivened  French classes over a long career  of teaching. His cartoon illuminated with wit Vancouver news in  the long-defunct New Herald and  later in the Vancouver Sun and  Province. Not too many of his  neighbours during his many years  of holidaying and retirement at  Gower Point ever saw these cartoons nor the oil seascapes of  Georgia Strait which he did in  latter years of more leisure. Lyman Meadows enjoyed the changing moods of sea and sky from  the vantage point of a beautiful  cabin on the Gower Point waterfront. He trained himself with  the help of books to paint these  with conviction and appreciation.  Beginning on August 15 as  the summer evenings bring many  to the Esplanade to enjoy sunsets,  the family \"of \"Lem\" Meadows is  lending a collection of his paintings, sketches and cartoons to  show at The Estuary, once the  old Chaster grocery store at  Gower Point and now. a little  seaside gallery. Local residents  and visitors may have opportunity  to see the scrapbooks of his  newspaper drawings and the intact family collection of some  thirty yearly Christmas cartoons.  With these Lyman Meadows  poked a little gentle fun at his  family while sending warm greetings to friends. When, in November '76 our local newspapers  announced the news of his death,  Mr. Meadows had already prepared this year's Christmas card  and it was with this that the  family courageously announced  his passing.  wwwwwwwwww  CLASSIFIED NOTE  Drop   off   your   Coast   News  Classifieds at Campbell's Family  Shoes & Leather Goods in downtown Sechelt.

The odd dichotomy  between appearance versus  reality, the four on the floor and  an automatic stick shift, the  actual as opposed to the potential,  the    dionysian    vitality    versus  apollonian form; all these subtle  nuances must be taken into  account. Lord knows it's not  easy. The place is full of demented crazies, the domestic wine  comes in plastic cubes, there are  mice in the cupboard because  the hostess is reticent about  mammalian bloodshed, a captain  with a toe he broke on an anchor  is conversing with a poet who  possibly sleeps in that white cap  he wears, and meanwhile, the  musicians have arrived, talking  about a holiday from imagined  madness. \"Paradise is where  you find it\" says the captain.  Just don't stub your toe on the  anchor.  \"I used to know this editor  from McClelland & Stewart\"  says the local, too young to know  better, somewhat decadent book  reviewer, \"he used to sleep in  the dining room.\" One pictures  him there, recumbent amongst  the detritus of turkey bones,  the passing feast. His mind,  perhaps, wandering, as editors  minds are wont to do. There is  something, perhaps as yet un-  revealed, out there. Lurking in  the literary underbrush, waiting  for the inevitable detection, to  be exposed in the broad light of  print. Ah yes. But what? Ostensibly these columns are supposed  to be about something. A book,  a notice from the ministry of  tourism, life at the dump. But  on the road?  Well, let's be blunt. It's too  late at night to be anything else,  and besides it's so satisfying.  \"The click of the pool balls,  neon buzzin', telephone ringing,  it's your second cousin...'' What  do you say to'your cousin? One  suspects that it shouldn't get too  philosophical, metaphysical,  astrological or too deeply into  the intricacies of one-worldism,  technocracy or limited immigration policies. Social intoxicants  were in evidence. A piano and  a guitar were being played.  Someone is singing \"Stormy  Monday.\" It was that kind of  night. Outside the arbutus trees  were all wearing trenchcoats,  smoking cigarettes, and talking  out ofthe corners of their mouths.  For all it matters, raccoons, red  squirrels, mice and people on  Canada Council grants may be  out dancing on the lawn. The  moon is not out. Still, it is a  night out on the town. This is  Saltspring Island, after all. And,  let's admit it, we've come here  for a Poetry Reading.  The poetry reading, already  reviewed in these pages when it  played at the Queen E., was of its  usual   excellent   self.       Dunn,  bathed in the sanguinity of the  backstage spots, plucked his  expected back alley riffs. Dalgleish wandered amiably across  the piano, and Trower growled  his always surprising, startling  lyrics. The prophet is always  without honour in his home town.  The taxi cab company knows him,  but even their deliveries aren't  prompt. Is this a way to wage a  successful battle against poverty,  ignonimy, and the creeping meatball of contemporary life? ' Who  knows?' Is \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd there anything left  in that bottle?  I had two rides today. I own  a vehicle, but it's often nice to  hitchhike. It gives you that air  of vulnerability. Supplication.  Anyway, the first ride was with  a retired army type from Ontario.  . He had the air of a man with  a reasonable pension, and a  Japanese import car. The seat-  belts buzzed if you didn't fasten  them. I'm trying not to extrapolate. I'd like not to think of  modern society as an over fed  consumer haring down the road  in a Japanese station wagon. I  don't have anything against the  Japanese. There're still hunting  whales. The ones I've met are  very nice. Nevertheless, modern  society just drove by. The windows were rolled up tight you can  bet. Chrome all shiny. The only  rust spots were on the passengers. If you've got a good pension, or a nice government job,  things are perhaps in a more  ordered perspective. If your  old pick-up has troubled ignition  systems, well, it's another story.  To make a long story short, I  rode to Vesuvius. There is one  store in Vesuvius, and a motel,  and a public access to the beach.  You can still dig clams there, but  I had a popsicle instead. The  arbutus trees are huge, and  looked like old willows from the  deep south. I thought of the  original people who came to  settle this place. They were black  people, escaping north from  slavery, coming here to live out  whole, free lives. We should all  have an island to go to, where  the chains get broken, where  there are still fields broad enough  for striding.  A review of the road. Last  minute plot summary. It's still  there, impersonal as ever. Our  peers, locked in tight in their  hermetically sealed, and sanitized for your protection automobiles, are speeding by in the  night. Bits of poetry, islands  that set them free, stick out their  thumbs. Lost music, echoing in  the dark, calls us home. Words  won't do it. The weather has  been fine. Wish you were here.  FOOTNOTE: by the local too  young to know better book reviewer.  Considering Faustmann as a  book, what sort of book would he  be? Leaves sewed together  bound between cloth and board,  newly wrapped?   No.   Old, well-  thumbed and spineless? The  image is irresistible. Give us  time and we shall become the  Fred Allen and Jack Benny of  book reviewing: geriatric comedians, more likely to meet in a  bunker than a clubhouse.  The poetic circus arrived on  this health spa isle some days -  was it only days - ago, dropping  from a big bird out of the sky,  thence to appear on my doorstep, more people than have  appeared there before at any one  time. We quickly vacuumed my  entire liquor supply, and hardly  made dents in theirs. Charles  immediately drew attention to  the one foot gap between the  pipes above my airtight. He considered it a sign of poor housekeeping, whereas I think of it  as sculpture. The mushrooms  that grew beside the toilet I  considered poor housekeeping.  Much weather later: The poet  has come to Ganges, Faustmann  went to  Vesuvius.     The   mild-'  eyed, melancholy lotus-eaters  conquered. I'm leaving for  Toronto - I keep saying - like the  hero in the comedy Support  Your Local Sherrif who says  'I'm just on my way to Australia*  over and over again, and never  leaves.  Consider the evidence, then.  Just before 1 fell asleep on the  floor (to the sounds of mice) the  pianist asked: \"Tell me Faustmann, have you ever read Nietzsche's The Birth of Tragedy and  the Geneology of Morals?\"  When I woke, it was the footnoted  Watters who said: I fellasleep on  a cushion upstairs. 1 got up and  all of my money was lying around  my head.  I would like to think there's  a lesson to be learnt from all  this. But it may only be an interim report from (change of  authors - muse move) Saltspring  Island, inside the moat, on some  planner's map for a causeway.  (True. There are many plans.)

The 7%  Solution is the name of the adventure and it deals with a struggle between Holmes, his habits,  and his old enemy Moriarty.  An all-star cast, some in mere bit  parts, bring the adventure to  life in entertaining fashion. As  directed by Herbert Ross the  drama has equal ingredients of  comedy and action. The star of  the film is Nicol Williamson who  offers an offbeat performance as  the brilliant but greatly troubled  detective; Robert Du vail is the  kindly but stiff Dr. Watson; Alan  Arkin mixes humour and wisdom  in his role of Dr. Sigmund Freud.  Brilliant in small roles are Laurence Olivier as Moriarty; Samantha Eggar, Joel Grey, Vanessa  Redgrave, Georgia Brown, and  Anne Quayle. The move was  filmed in lush Technicolour on  locations in Vienna and England.  Ping-pong  with Jutras  The C.B.C.'s Molly's Reach  was host to a heated table tennis  tournament between renowned  Quebec film director Claude  Jutras (Mon Oncle Antoine,  Kamouraska...) and Coast News  bookkeeper M. Laplante. It is  to be noted that even though the  contestants were evenly matched,  Ms. Laplante won with a score  of 14 to 12.  Mr. Jutras has been working  with The Beachcombers crew on  the upcoming episode \"The  Patriarch\" also starring Quebec-  ker guest actor Ovila Legare in  the role of Nick Adonidas'  father visiting his son from  Greece.  The second film of the week is  a madcap farce entitled The Ritz  based on a comedy hit play which  ran on Broadway for a year.  Director Richard Lester who most  recently brought The Three  ' Musketeers to life has gathered  together the cream of comedians;  Jack Weston, Rita Moreno, Jerry  Stiller, and Kaye Ballard and  turned them loose.  The farce focuses on Cleveland  sanitation owner, played by  Weston, who in escaping a murderous brother-in-law (Stiller)  finds himself in bathhouse bedlam with his wife, played by  Kaye Ballard, trying to track him  down. Rita Moreno mistakes him  for a Broadway producer and  that's when the comical insanity  begins.  The 7% Solution will be shown  Wednesday through Saturday,  August 24 - 27 and The Ritz  Sunday through Tuesday, August  28 - 30. Both films will be shown  at the regular time of 8:00 p.m.  'Stoic  Sluttciues;  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Antiques  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Curios  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd * Boutique  Clothing  & Custom Sewing  Open 11.00 - 5:30  Tues. - Sat.  886-2316  On    Hwy. 101    overlooking  Gibsons Harbour  Warning: Coarse & suggestive  language.

After 18 months of  singing Cole Porter in nightclubs, furious when patrons were  too busy talking to listen, and a  stint doing routines and jingles  for gun commercials, she took  her friends' advice and enrolled  in the Mannes Music School,  New York. Four years later she  was a co-finalist in the Met's  competition and for the next three  years sang secondary roles there.  In 1972 Rolf Lieberman, director  of the Paris Opera came to audition singers for the role of Cheru-  bino in the Marriage of Figaro  and Fred, as she was known  backstage, got the job. Since  that time she has been an international, star much in demand.  On July 31st she had a concert  in Ottawa with the National  Arts Centre orchestra which was  recorded and will be presented  Sunday on Special Occasion at  5:05 p.m. The programme includes a mini-documentary about  the singer and she is heard in  conversation with Bill Hawes.

She went  for a drink of water and was a bit  alarmed to find the underside  of a pick-up truck blocking the  view from her kitchen window.  The vehicle was empty. Once  the police and fire departments  arrived,  they  figured  that  the  pick-up had probably come down  Bals Lane the wrong way, gone  out of control and went over the  bank and rolled through her  fence, knocking over a small hut  and stopping sideways against  the building.  A neighbour thought he saw  three people running away. The  fire truck had to water down the  garden to try to get rid of the  gas. There was still plenty in'  the garden the next day.  %$>  YOStU'S  RESTAURANT  Sunnycrest Shopping Plaza  Gibsons 886-8015  Featuring the finest in  Cantonese and Western Cuisine  SPECIAL GROUP DINNERS  OF CHINESE FOOD  Open 4:30 -10:00 p.m.  Closed Wednesday  DINE   IN    OR   TAKE   OUT  Marina questionnaire  The results of the recent  marina questionnaire have now  been tabulated and were presented to the Gibsons Council  by Alderman Metzler at the  meeting held on August 16th.  The tabulated returns are to be  used to expand the report submission made, to the federal  government.  The proposed marina would be  a fifty-fifty sharing with the  federal government, Metzler told  the Coast News this week. In  discussing the need for additional  berthing space Metzler said,  \"We are losing a lot of business  because of inadequate berthing  right now. The word is out in  Vancouver that Gibsons is just  not a place to come by boat because there is no place to tie up.\"  The proposal is to bridge the  rocks which appear at low tide by  the beacon in Gibsons harbour  and it is thought that two hundred and eighty-eight additional  berths could be provided.  Alderman Metzler stressed  that it was intended that the proposed berthages would be low-  profile and strictly mooring  places. When asked about the  effects on the harbour Metzler  said that engineering studies  had indicated that the flushing  action of the tides in the bay area  would be considerably improved  by the proposed marina.  Week commencing August 23rd.  General Outlook: Thursday,  August 25th is astrologically  important because Neptune  becomes 'stationary\", indicating  a brief period of confusion,  deception, and fuzzy thinking for  the uninformed. Hence, any  really important personal matters  should be put aside temporarily  on that day. On the world scene,  gas leaks, oil spills, and sea-  related events often make the  headlines during this phenomenon.  The weekend improves rapidly  with a Full Moon in Pisces  beautifully aspected by Jupiter  and Uranus. Consequently,  strong feelings of sympathy,  helpfulness, and bonhomie  ', should bring about many pleasant  social occasions. Brave lovers  exchanging marital vows will be  glad they did.  Babies arriving at this time are  likely to show the above-mentioned characteristics and may be  attracted to nursing, veterinary  science, and honorable, public  service \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  ARIES (March 21-April 19)  Strong spiritual or philosophical feelings may impel you to  ' withdraw for a while and cont-  ' emplate your inner most beliefs.

Peace  of mind and strength of purpose  return at the weekend.  LEO (July 23-Aug. 23)  Exotic social activities and  intriguing love affairs will be  tempting.

LIBRA (Sept. 23- Oct. 23)  Short journeys, correspondence, and phone calls are sources  of frustration. Health conditions  and dietary habits are reassessed.  A personal sacrifice is warmly  appreciated.  SCORPIO (Oct. 24- Nov. 22)  A wild weekend lies ahead for  the socially aggressive. For  quieter folks, an excellent period  for pursuing creative endeavours.  Finance and possessions are this  week's problematic areas.

Fire afloat  The forestry boat was called  out early last Thursday morning  when a float house was reported  on fire at the head of Carlson  Creek in Sechelt Inlet.  The float and building belonged to Dennis Tyson of  Sechelt. The RCMP reported  that at least one building was  completely gutted, and that Anne  (\"Bergy\") Solberg had heard a  boat in the area shortly before  she spotted the smoke, so arson  has not yet been ruled out as  a possiblity.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd*  t  FEDERAL  BUSINESS  DEVELOPMENT BANK  145 West 15th Street,  North Vancouver, B.

In a short passage in last week's  paper I asked for information  on sightings on a pheasant  type bird that had been spotted  around Davis Bay. The response  was better than I expected.  Mike Wilson, who was back  home on holiday from the University of Calgary, told me about  Lady Amhurst Pheasants which  had been seen in the area.  The bird in question was very  likely a female. He also spotted  an owl on Redroofs Road in  daytime. The owl had found  a snake on the highway, which  would account for it being around  in bright sunshine. Mike watched  it for a considerable time so  as to make positive identification. The reason he took such  great care over identification  is because there are no recorded  sightings of that particular  owl from this area. Would  anyone else having seen it get  in touch with me and I will contact Mike.  Stan Wiseman on North Road  went out to feed his pigs last  week and found two unusual  visitors in his chicken coop -  two male peacocks. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd He gave  me a call and I went down for  a look and found one of them  sitting on a post and the other  walking around with the chickens.  Stan had heard at the feed store  that someone was missing a  couple of birds but he didn't  have a name. I took a couple  of pictures and figured that  if I put it in the paper the owner  would identify the birds.  Lindy, the typesetter was  setting up the classifieds and  she saw one asking for information on the whereabouts of a  .couple of peacocks which- had  flown the coop - as it turned  out, only to land in another.  The author of the ad, Sandy  Dorn from Chamberlin Road  was contacted on Sunday and  the birds are safely home again.  On a more sombre note, a  long-time resident of Davis Bay,  Chief Cauldwell died last week.  He will be remembered, amongst  other things for his aviary.

The' essence of the proposal  is local voluntary neighbourhood  action commencing now.  People are asked to wash the  material they bring down, flatten  all cans, and keep glass either  unbroken, or separated as to  colour: green, brown or clear.  Newspapers should be bundle'd.  + Crafts & Hobbies  886-2811  ir Hobby Supply  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdfr Games & Toys  it WINE ART Supplies,  S&ti  FLORON  AGENCIES LTD  REAL ESTATE  *  INSURANCE  Box 238  1589 Marine Drive  Gibsons,  96  RON McSAVANEY  AGENT  885-3339  OFFICE: 886-2248  JOHN BLACK  886-7316  DRVCLEnnmc  seruke  WHARF ROAD  SECHELT  885-9554  & Laundry  ALTERATIONS & REPAIRS  1521 GOWER PT.

Coast News, August 23,1977.  The Roberts Creek fastball  team won their district finals  in  The Roberts Creek men's  fastball team won their regional  finals in Squamish last weekend. The local men won four  ofthe five matches they played.  They got off on a winning  note by taking their first game  before dropping the second.  This necessitated the team  winning all three of their remaining games in order to  make, the finals, which they  did, starting play at 12.30 p.m.  and playing through till 8.15 p.m.  The Provincial Finals will be  held in Sidney on the Labour  Day weekend. This marks  the second consecutive year  that the Koberts Creek men's  fastball team has won its way  througn to the Provincial Finals.  fO  wjfiBf  Continued from Page 1  gained.  The regional district is not a  board, set up to control water  as our hospital board and school  board is each established to take  care of the one function assigned  to it. The regional district is a  political entity whicb has gained  control of not only sewage and  water but also planning and land  development.  Therefore, the regional district  to whom you are being asked to  virtually donate your water system today would in the process  be given control over the right of  any present or prospective resi-  ent to build a home or establish  a business anywhere within what  is now your water district. The  control of water is the most  powerful force in the decision of  which properties can be developed and which can not.  The Joss of control of your  water sytem would mean the loss  of your right to determine the  future development of the area it  covers.  In preparation for your decision  regarding an impending referendum on this matter, here are a  few points to ponder.  The Dayton and Knight 1965  report estimated the potential of  the artesian water at Gibsons  sufficient to serve a population of  8500  persons.      Existing  wells  now help serve some 2500 users.  By means of simple arithmetic  it becomes obvious that the clear,  cold water being constantly renewed under impervious hardpan  at Gibsons would supply an  additional 6000 population.  Although the majority of councillors favor relinquishment of  your system, they have passed a  motion to implement extension of  the existing system by construction of a tank reservoir at the  700-foot level, supplied by water  from a well in Dougal Park, to  service areas now without water  and to increase pressure in existing mains. As in the case of  all previous expansions back to  1929, this one will be successfully  amortized.  The Sechelt Regional District  wishes all citizens to believe that  it is concerned for the well-being  of the water users (pun intentional) of Gibsons, Granthams,  Soames Point, and Hopkins.  (Anyone who questions the expression \"Sechelt\" Regional  District is invited to investigate  how much of the regional district's salary and honorarium expenses reached Gibsons.) If  the regional district insists on  being concerned for somebody,  why isn't it concerned for the  citizens along Highway 101 between Wilson Creek and Gibsons  who are not on regional water?  The first passenger to board the shoppers'bus, Ruby Keller of Langdale, was very grateful to do so.   She walked all the way into Gibsons the previous day - a strong argument  in itself for the need for the bus.  how could the firemen fight the  which  water  Continued from Page 1   ...  3.

All these things happen when  I have two taps on simultaneously, but if someone else on our line  is using water, then it is a complete waste of time trying to get  any.  We have been denied adequate  fire protection because of weak  pressure, and we live in fear of a  bush fire in this area, as well as  the fact that if a home caught fire  COAST  FURNISHINGS  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd TEAK  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd WATER BEDS  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd CARPETS-LINO  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd DRAPERIES  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd KITCHEN CABINETS  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd FREE ESTIMATES  Gibsons,  B.C.

After the total destruction vof  the Secondary School, you would  think that all taxpayers in this  district would use common sense  and back the Dayton & Knight  report, to see that something  like that didn't happen again.  How about having to get a new  school with today's rate of inflation? Do they not realize that  we as taxpayers have had to take  the brunt of those inflated costs.  Yet, when we can get an adequate  water system to protect our  buildings, as well as a better  system for our homes, they have  to fight it. A few years from now  it will be far more costly, but  then, they being selfish, and  thinking only of themselves  couldn't care less.  The Dayton & Knight report  also clearly states that the Regional District system is the only  one to be relied upon to supply  Gibsons with water.  Our taxes have gone into upgrading the Fire Department,  and we should be justly proud of  them. However, what good is  having a well-run fire department when they haven't an adequate water system to fight  those fires with in some areas of  Gibsons?  I urge you to keep trying to  get through the thick craniums of  some of these taxpayers so that  hopefully,   they   may   see   the  validity of it all.  Editor's note:  .

COAST HOMES  Across from  Sechelt Legion  Dave: 885-3859  evenings  Bill: 885-2084  evenings  Included in this area within,  the regional district but denied  Chapman Creek water are properties along Blower Road, Tyson  Road, Hanbury Road, Lockyer  Road, Marlene Road, Crowe  Road, Orange Road, Joe Road,  Oldershaw Road, Gale Road,  -Conrad Road, Leek Road, and  Pine Road. Of course existing  jesidents have water. So did  residents along Lower Road,  some of whom now find that they  receive no water from the regional district's Chapman Creek  system, at one time they had  their own systems.  Obviously, according to regional district thinking, the ten  miles on either side of Highway  101 are better served with no  community system than Gibsons  users are with their municipal  system.  This territory between Wilson  Creek and Gibsons, through  which roads have long since been  established, has been ignored  while the regional district has  hastened to supply water to new  subdivisions as far west as Halfmoon Bay. The reason of course  was that while the Halfmoon Bay-  Redrooffs area had community  systems that may have been successfully expanded independently, the Wilson Creek-Pine Road  area can offer no such threat of  formation of its own water distribution system.  Any level of government has  a right to discuss matters of  common interest with any other  level on an equal footing. But  no government has the right to  propagandize the citizens of  another duly organized government with seductive information  in order to aggrandize its own  power in the manner that the  regional district is doing to the  residents of Gibsons, Granthams,  Soames Point, and Hopkins. All  ofthe citizenry of these communities are being treated as if they  are lesser beings without the  law, incapable mentally or economically of providing themselves with water for drinking  and bathing.  These citizens are being told  . that, while their springs and wells  are limited and unsatisfactory,  the potential of Chapman Creek  is unlimited. This rainless  summer, following a snowless  winter, has produced eloquent  evidence of the effectiveness of  our springs and wells in contrast  to the Chapman Creek system's  vulnerability.  No member of the Gibsons  municipal council was elected on  a platform pr with a mandate to  give away the heritage of the  community's water resources to  a political body which has never  until now professed any love for  us. Relinquishing your water  resources to this regional district  would be like entrusting your  precious flock of chickens to the  care of a gang of foxes.  The ironic feature of this sorry  business is that the village councillors who were elected to protect your resources have by and  large taken sides with the regional district to the point that press  releases from council meetings  echo almost without exception the  rationale not of the chickens but  of the foxes. The result is that  the referendum voter is being  fed nothing but malformed arguments favoring the irretrievable  loss of your water, lock, stock,  and barrel.  Residents of the Sunshine  Coast pleased with the regional  district during the past few years  to use its good offices to protect  the watershed of the Chapman  Creek basin. With their gaze  firmly fixed on the springs and  artesian water of West Howe  Sound communities, the district  directors scorned this request.

By Gibsons turning over  its complete system and dis-  tributin system to the district;  B. By Gibsons turning over  its supply system to the district  and retaining its own distribution  system and utility;  C. By installation of two-way  meters at the connection point  of the joint system.  Let it not be said that Gibsons  water users nurture a dog-in-the-  manger attitude. The two systems already meet at Veterans  Road. By all means let some of  our surplus water flow to users  beyond our boundaries where  regional district facilities are  proving inadequate. But by all  means let us also retain control  of our water so that in future  years no other level of government can send our most precious  natural resource through pipes  we have already paid for to let  areas far away from us be developed while our community  withers on the vine because  home-seekers are told that there  is no water to be had at Gibsons.

Fisheries Officer Ray Kraft  provided technical advice regarding development at the head of  Pender Harbour at the Pender  Plan Committee meeting August  17. The Department of the Environment and Fisheries will  take over full authority for the  estuary east of the Gunboat Bay  Narrows as of September 1. The  area has been designated as an  Aquatic Rearing Area for salmon,  shellfish, seabirds and crab.  \"Our department would frown  very highly on development in  Gunboat Bay and Oyster Bay,\"  said Kraft. \"Marinas have been  objected to because the area is  too sensitive ecologically. The  area is probably more sensitive  than Porpoise Bay,\" added  Kraft. '' Housing, provided there  is adequate drainage and it is  not too dense is acceptable. High  density would cause pollution  seepage during high rainfall,\"  continued Kraft.  _ The Pollutio(ii^^>ntrol Board^  and the Health Department are  presently doing a pollution survey. Fisheries will begin diving  studies of the crab nursery in  Gunboat Bay on September 1.  Questioned by Paul Moritz,  Assistant Regional Planner, regarding an industrial dock and  barge off-loading facility in the  south head, Kraft replied that  contour changes of the bottom  or shore by filling or dredging  are not allowed in aquatic rearing areas.' Since the area is only  accessible at high tide, Kraft  .doubted if it would be economically feasible. Kraft also pointed  put the spillover effect of development in the south head for  Gunboat Bay.  Jim Causey, Chairman of the  Pender Plan Committee, asked  \"Has the pollution situation improved since the 1974 survey?\"  \"Probably not,\" replied Kraft.  \"There is no reason. The same  polluters are still dumping  sewage straight into, the harbour. If the present survey  identifies them, perhaps we can  embarrass them into cleaning up  the situation.\"  Canoe Pass  A number of people attending  the meeting left quite upset because they had expected the  Canoe Pass Development to be  discussed. Apparently they had  confused this meeting with the  Technical Planning Committee  which advises regional director  Jack' Paterson on specific development proposals.1  A large number of Ratepayers  are irate about the proposed development of townhouse condominiums at Canoe Pass. The  regional board has given the proposal second reading, which is  \"approval in principle.\"  Regional director Jack Paterson stated that he had voted for  approval in principle to provide  due process. \"The proposal will  go to the Technical Planning  Committee and there will be a  public hearing in late September.\" Paterson added that he  had first heard of the Craig property development in March and  \"that Mrs. Aritilla, whose property  is immediately adjacent, was informed because an access easement was necessary.  Although not directly involved  in this proposed development,  the Pender Plan Committee has  discussed multiple dwelling units  in its Settlement Plan. Section  5.4.2.2 has been amended to  state: \"Multiple dwelling units  should be allowed in the residential core immediately bordering the commercial centre in  Madeira Park. Second storey  residential use in the commercial  area should be allowed.  In order  Sound Construction  N \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd. X   .  Car pen ter- Con trac tor  \\    .x.  Interior Finishing  \\     -v  House v Framing  Concrete Form Work  \\      V  Gary Wallinder    886-2316  Box 920  Gibsons  SUNDECK  PROBLEMS?  I  to facilitate an economic sewer  system,.such high-intensity residential use must be concentrated  in the core area.\"  The Canoe Pass development  clearly does not conform to the  proposed Settlement Plan. The  regional board approval in principle is not consistent with the  Settlement Plan if section 5.4.2.2  accurately reflects community  opinion.  Other Matters  Committee member John MacFarlane reported that Forestry  says there is no economically  feasible timber on Mount Cecil  Crown Lands. There is a small  area near Paq Lake but it has  been disallowed.  Regarding public accesses to  the beach, the committee voted  to endorse the identification of  perhaps a dozen public accesses  which have adequate parking  space. Development of one  access in each area of the harbour will proceed in consultation  with the neighbourhood residents. The regional board will  be asked to allocate recreational'  funds for garbage collection and  toilet facilities.  During the public question  period the following questions  and points of information were  raised:  1. A private float does not require a lease from the Lands  Department because it is considered temporary.  2. Large contained boathouses  legally require a water lease.  3. Foreshore leases must be  within extensions of existing  property lines, they must not  block the view or access of  others, and they are' subject to  annual rental fees and taxes.  4. Should the lakes designated  for specific uses be named in  the plan?  5. Who will pay the cost of  plan proposals?    What are the  costs?  6. Aside from buring to control  vermin, has the committee considered alternate ways of dealing  with the garbage dump? It was  pointed out that smoke pollution  and\"water pollution during winter  rains may be health problems.  7. Recycling and landfill were  suggested.  8. Will the new 600-foot wide  Hydro right-of-way to Vancouver  Island go through Pender Harbour?  9. Will the committee seek  technical advice on the herring  situation in view of the local  shortage?  Summary  The Ratepayers' Publicity  Committee endorses the concept  of an informed electorate. We  are gratified by the positive response to our column.

I'm the guy who took his  glass bottles to the Regional  Board a few weeks ago, and now  I'm hanging out at the little park  on the highway in Sechelt, waiting for some of yours, as well as  your excess tin cans and newspapers. Please spread the word.  I'd like to make up a load to take  into the recycling depot in West  Vancouver by Thursday or Friday.  I also have a recycling proposal which is probably printed  elsewhere in this newspaper. Its  basis is very simple: We assume  responsibility for our own lives,  and stop complaining. We begin  to do what we must do, always  with fullest possible regard for  the thoughts and feelings of  others. We can't postpone acting  impeccably, expecting or demanding changes in others before  we begin living the way we feel  we should.  And so we recycle our excess  \"garbage\". Neighbourhoods get  together. We've started in mine,  Storm Bay and vicinity: Four  drums on the dock, a trip or two  to Vancouver a year? Simple.  Part of the flow of our lives.  I have few illusions about my  actions. Mainly I'm getting some  ofthe stuff I can't use to someone  who can. The tin and glass that  my personal eco-system can't  handle. And I have room for  some others' stuff, too: My  neighbours'. And this particular  run is being used to remind some  other folks who must really know  already in their heart of hearts.  that it's possible for them to do  it, too. To give you a nudge, and  perhaps to raise a few deeper  related questions.  Come on down and let's begin  to work out any details while  I'm here. I have copies of the  full proposal available.  A word about my choice of  location. I needed a spot that  was central and quite visible so  that I could present my proposal  simply, quickly and effectively,  and more or less be done with it  before I return home. I will try  to approach the cenotaph and the  rest of the area with respect. I  hope that I don't offend anyone.  If I do, please come down and  see me about it, as we can try to  come to an accord.

Do  you have any suggestions?  Answer: Homemade popsicles  are your answer. They are easy  to make, contribute vitamins  and minerals, and can be low in  sugar. Try freezing.a variety of  juices, or mix equal parts of  apple, orange, and cranberry  juice and freeze in molds, or in  paper cups with wooden sticks.  Or insert sticks into chunks of  melon, pineapple, strawberries,  watermelon, or banana halves  to make fruit popsicles. Combine  2 cups plain yogurt and a dash  of honey with 1 cup of blended  fruits, or with a 6V4 ounce tin of  concentrated fruit juice, and  freeze to make yogurt popsicles.  The children love them, and they  make nutrient-plus snacks.  Question: My family loves  watermelon, what nutritional  value does it offer?  nawer: A slice of watermelon,  8<\/4\" diameter and 1\" thick,  provides enough vitamin C to  meet the daily recommended  level. It also provides some iron  and about half ofthe recommended daily level of vitamin A,  all for only 115 calories.  I  water  Editor:  I just cannot sit by without  comment any longer. Just where  does the Regional Board expect  to get the water it has promised  Gibsons and surrounding areas?  We connected to the regional  water line last year and at the  moment not a drop of water will  come out of our taps, it is the  same every evening and early  morning. If they have so much  water why not let those who  already pay have some? Where  will the firemen get water to  fight a fire in my home? In the  Community Hall? And the Masonic Hall? Have you thought of  that gentlemen of the Regional  Board? You should have, the  firemen have put the question to  you often enough.  We    are    very    disappointed  taxpayers.

Send your entries  to the Coast News, Box 460, Gibsons, B.C. Last, week's winner was Rick DeHart, Box  281 Sechelt, B.C. who correctly identified the old jailhouse across the road from the Wakefield Inn in West Sechelt.  Letters from the Guess  ere mailbag  Dear Sir:  I attach clipping from your  paper dated today.  1 believe that this old cabin  is the one on the upper side  of highway 101 West Sechelt  almost directly opposite the  Wakefield    Inn    Beer    Parlour.  You are to be commended for  running such an interesting  competition. People need something to shake them up and  make them think and recall.  Better    still   to   be    observant.  Yours sincerely,Wm.York Higgs  P.S. The picture of Tom Brazil  and his deer was very fine.  We knew Tom well and visited  him each summer from about  1919 onwards. The bear story  was going then. Likewise he  used to show ahildren whom  he suspected would molest  his deer a pile of sheep bones  in the bush and say \"That's  what happened to a fellow  that I caught throwing stones  and arrows at my deer years  ago.\"  Dear Sir:  This is the little old building  north of Highway 101 near Wakefield Inn. Being a recent arrival  on the Sunshine Coast I am  interested in the history of  the place. It looks as if it might  Have been a roadside concession  or ticket booth.  Mrs.    Ruth   Ronniftg,    R.R.    1,  Sechelt, B.C.  Editor's note:  We'll try to write a short history of the building for Mrs.  Ronning for next week.  Dear Ann:  Is it fair to any one to have  false hair and this and that?  I feel cheated if my voluptuous  brunette turns out to be a flat-  chested brunette. What do you  think?  Burned up  Dear Burned:  We usually are attracted to  the person by the visual but are  held to the person by the spirit  and personality. If the visual  is so important, do plenty of  sluething before you commit  yourself. Honesty is the best  policy. Among younger women  you don't find so much use of  wiles, but getting older and  desperate there are no holds  barred, so beware!  Come Cry  By Ann Napier  Dear Ann:  If a man dated a women that  was a transvestite could he tell  that there was a change? Is it  anyone else's responsiblity to  inform him? Wondering  Dear Wonderng:  As more people are changing  sex today I'm sure this question  will come up more often. I don't  know physically if there are  noticeable differences. A girl,I  know when meeting one heard  the difference in the voice and  asked her, \"did you used to be  a man?\" She replied yes.  Since we are responsible for  our own actions I can't see why  it is anyone else's responsibility  to go around informing everyone  she dates.  Dear Ann:  Is dating a married man still  a big no no in this day and age of  sexual freedom? Falling in love  is something I didn't mean to  happen, but it did. Sunk  Dear Sunk:  There are many circumstances  that I don't know. But often  after many years have passed  there is little excitement or romance left in marriage. It gets  to be more of a business, paying  bills, caring for the children's  needs, hence when the children  leave home you often see people  separate quite painlessly. No  one owns anyone. To be together  out of obligation is to say the  least unfulfilling. So you decide  of these are the circumstances.  siesMe***********^'  fWfye       \"^  i2  AUGUST 31st  Leave Sechelt  JIM NABORS  P.N.E.
