Those who support the board felt that the district is doing a good job and stressed the importance of providing top quality education for students. \"I have two children in high school,\" said Heather Myhill- Jones. \"I feel I'm getting good value for my money.\" Mary Bland agreed, \"I applaud this board. I have three children in school who are getting the benefit of a good education.\" m% eniors) have ww~ nster of high deficits,\" said Jim Bartley. \"We shouldn't expect the kids to suffer for it.\" Lome Blain objected to the 100 per cent increase in government funding to private schools which he claims is creating an elitist class at the expense of the public school system. \"Most private schools are run by religious groups,\" he said. \"We separated church and state a long time ago. This is a backward step.\" Criticism of the budget tended to focus on the hardship experienced by those on fixed incomes. \"This increase is beyond the inflation rate,\" said Vic Vaughan. \"Pensions have not increased. I'm scared. Too much ruddy money is being spent, and what are we getting for it?\" Replying to criticism of the 18 per cent increase in teachers' salaries, District Superintendent Clifford Smith said, \"Our teachers were low on the salary scale. These increases just bring them into line with the rest of the province. In the next five to 10 years we are headed for a serious teacher shortage. We want to be competitive and to keep our good teachers.\" The $14,834,686 budget represents a 12.4 per cent increase over the current year. The annual cost of educating each student will go from $4704 to $5122, a nine per cent increase. _ With 85 per cent of the total budget related to wages, recent salary negotiations account for an 18 per cent increase at the elementary level and 14.3 per cent increase at the secondary level. Other increases are caused by an estimated three per cent increase in enrollment; more supervision as a result of the collective agreement with teachers; increased custodial costs due to the new Halfmoon Bay school and additional portables at other schools. More money has been allotted for general supplies, libraries and extracurricular travel. Additional costs will be incurred in implementing the new curriculum mandated by the Ministry of Education as a result of the Royal Commission. Cutbacks in the restraint years resulted in considerable deterioration of buildings and grounds. Repair of these facilities has now become urgent. A 65 per cent reduction in government grants for Continu ing Education threatened to scuttle that department, but the board opted to retain the popular program. There have been some decreases. As a result of an external evaluation, increased efficiency will result in a seven per cent decrease in special education costs, and administration costs will drop by 3.8 per cent. Of the total $14,843,686 budget, the fiscal framework (that is, the money the provincial government provides for education in this district) amounts to $12,871,535. This means that $1,972,151 must be Please turn to page 10 The Sunshine Published on the Sunshine Coast per copy on news stands \"A cheap lesson\" Diesel oil fouls t Gibsons Harbour by Penny Fuller Winners in the annual April Fool's Run are: (from left to right) Arne Pettersen, Ken Gruhenberg, Maureen Collins, Mary Bland and overall champion for the second year in a row, Jim Verster. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDEllen Frith photo Off Recreation administration Surprise takeover p by Ellen Frith The decision of the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) to assume administration of the West Howe Sound Recreation Commission from the Town of Gibsons was announced at the commission's April 5 meeting in Gibsons. The announcement of the intended administration switch was the result of an SCRD board decision made at their March 23 meeting. But it came as a complete and, by most accounts, a very unpleasant surprise to those commission members not privy to the SCRD decision before April 5. And, coming as it did, like a 'bombshell', the announcement resulted not only in a lot of hurt feelings, but also the speculation that the decision was politically motivated. \"My perception is that it is clearly a political move,\" said John Reynolds, a former commission member who was sitting in on the April 5 meeting as an Alternate to Gibsons Alderman Ken Collins. \"It has to do with restructuring.\" Reynolds, who is currently also a Gibsons Alderman, brought up the possibility of the administration switch being politically motivated at the April 5 meeting. Afterwards he said, \"It's extremely unfortunate that this happened now while the restructuring issue is being talked about. \"I'm very disappointed. The commission worked as a group for the area and there were no concerns for boundaries. Now, if we're talking politics, it can screw things up. Everybody was shocked and there will be hard feelings.\" Jim Gurney, Area 'E' representative, denies categorically there was anything political in the SCRD's decision. \"It has always been at the back of our minds to take over the administration of the commission when we had the backup staff to do it,\" he said. \"We've had this move in the making for at least a year. It was no big secret and it was\" not politically motivated.\" Please turn to page 4 \"It was a cheap lesson,\" according to Gibsons wharfinger Matt Small i Last week Gibsons Harbour had an oil spill, at most only 4JX) to 500 gallons, but possibly as little as 200 gallons. In attempting to handle it, Small, Gibsons officials, and local boat owners learned a lot about whom to call, what to do and what not to do when a spill occurs. Investigating a complaint last -Tuesday, Small noticed an in- \"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDcreasing density of oil in the -f liiaitoow, area.,;Ha ccmtacjed the . ;\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDo^ftdu|r^ ' .^cw| investigators to \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'jje^seht down. ; Or) Tuesday, a representative fromr the Ministry of the Environment arrived to look things over. He and Small discovered some dolphin wells (where the pilings come up) inches thick with diesel. A quick series of phone calls \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwere made to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans; Federal Ministry of the Environment; the Coast Guard and Public Works Canada. The phone Calls which effected the most immediate action were those made to Shell and Esso, locally. Within minutes, Small told the Coast News a truck from Esso had arrived; Shell arrived moments later. Both companies brought bundles of special absorbing cloths which absorb oil not water, and the cleanup began on a local basis. Small and Jim Lamb, as well as many other helpful volunteers, pumped out the concentrated areas, bailed and blotted with the cloths. The problem was that the spill hadn't been reported right away, allowing wave action and weather to both spread the diesel and thin it. The emergency response team from the Coast Guard arrived on Wednesday with pumps and booms and other cleanup equipment, but the concentrated areas had already been dealt with and the equipment they had wouldn't help. 'Spray Away', a private contracting company who does this sort of thing for the government was contacted and completed the cleanup operation as best as possible. Small says there'll be a residue for a while, but the sunny days will help to speed up the evaporation process which eliminates the last traces of the spill, something he didn't know before last week's incident. \"I learned a lot.\" he said. \"Everybody involved here learned a lot.\" Please turn to page 4 O81 til\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD IflSlCl\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Power of Pulp Press ... .P.2 Pender Lions Park ....

In other words, things in Gibsons are getting back to normal. ; The national strike by CUPE members ended Friday night with 87 percent of the office and profession workers and 79.6 percent of the production staff voting in favour of the settlement offered by CBC. \"On the whole, it was a fairly substantial gain for the union,\" said local Molly's Reach picketer, David Croal. Croal said he was overwhelmed by the support shown the strikers by the local townspeople and everybody in general. \"Somehow this strike showed that a union is not just a nasty word, it's people,\" he said. \"Somebody was always bringing us muffins and coffee and buying us lunch.

Dead oil soaked wildlife always light quickly and burn for hours under any conditions. Last week regional directors Gurney and McGillivray announced to the West Howe Sound Recreation Commission that the regional board was taking over the administration of the commission. This is not to discuss whether or not the move was merited but rather to point out there was that about the method of doing it that is unfortunately typical of the SCRD at its most high-handed and discourteous, a trait which goes to the root of much of the animosity that traditionally exists among the Coast's governments. Apparently at the end of the March 23 regional board meeting Director Gurney presented the non-agenda item as a 'housekeeping matter' and the rest of the directors took him at his word, passed it, and went home. The function under which the West Howe Sound Recreation Commission functions was acquired in 1980 for the purpose of providing a vehicle under which the SCRD residents of Areas E and F could contribute to the costs of the recreation facilities they use in the Town of Gibsons. It has had its rough-spots over the years but by and large it has been one of the few instances of relatively satisfactory cooperation between the two jurisdictions. When Gurney and McGillivray masterminded the change of administration without first discussing it with members of their commission and without advising the Town of Gibsons of their intent, they acted with the kind of devious discourtesy and arrogance that long-time observers will recognize all too well. The fact is the principal recreational facilities involved, the swimming pool, Brothers Park, and the Dougal Park Tennis Courts are the property of the Gibsons taxpayers. The cited activities of the SCRD parks superintendent surely belong under the SCRD parks function. It is difficult to believe that the rest of the SCRD directors were willing partners in this exercise in arrogant rudeness. Don't punish initiative It is reported that last week's meeting of the town council of Gibsons came to an end with a journalist lecturing them on procedures involving the project of sludge utilization spearheaded by Works Superintendent Skip Reeves. It would be a shame indeed if Mr. Reeves was to be harassed for showing too much initiative. He has accomplished great things during his brief tenure and if sometimes his enthusiasm and appetite for his work take him beyond the aldermen bobbing uninformed in his wake, surely the principal responsibilities there lie with the mayor and the senior administrator, and the aldermen themselves. And generally speaking, it may be time for council to stiffen its collective backbone and tell the Coast's leading exponent of huff and puff journalism that if he wants to run the town he should stand for election. A staff member as dedicated and effective as Mr. Reeves deserves that much protection and support. from th\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD file* oMhe COAST NEWS 5 YEARS AGO The doors of the Sechelt Indian Band Salmon Hatchery in MacLean Bay officially open.

The case took weeks to try and provided the very same newspaper being sued with much copy of a salacious nature, especially when the prostitute took the stand, but eventually Archer was victorious. He exited the courtroom, with his wife by his side, millions of - pounds sterling richer which he - then gave to charity. He sued, * he.said, not for the mdneypMY because he just didn't wanfcfne; newspaper to think it could get away with saying the things about him that it did. The pulp-press, of course, whether in Britain or North America, sells newspapers very simply because it does say the things it does. And for the most part it gets away with it. The public tends to think of even the most outrageous stories printed as naughty but essentially innocent gossip merely meant to titillate since the subjects of these acounts are usually very public figures. Jeffrey Archer was just such a public figure and, really, his reputation did not suffer very much from the innuendos printed about his sex life. But what his trial did do, because it was so well-publicized, was finally focus attention on just what the pulp-press is all about. Various commissionsfollowed and what they found was that in between the stories of the movie stars and such like, were stories in the same ilk of more ordinary folk. It was in these cases that the power of the press, slanted as it was towards unrepentant sensationalism, wreaked considerable damage. Lives had, in many cases, been ruined. The point is the written word can hurt. Well-chosen adjectives on the printed page are slings and arrows to make all but the most thick-skinned take cover. And, when a considerable arsenal of words is combined with the intrinsic influence of the press on the public, even in good, straight and objective reporting, the power is a very real thing. In the case where reporting is definitely slanted towards creating a story rather than merely reporting on one, or where the reporter's chosen words are too often of an emotive or inflammatory nature, the power can be lethal. This is especially true in a small community where those under the pen are usually not professionally public figures in some far off Hollywood, but rather friends, family or the person next door. If the barrage from the local newspaper is too fierce or partisan, or too cruel in a belaboured effort to be amusing, what happens is simple. Many community people who would offer themselves for public service shy away from any limelight at all lest they draw fire, and those already in the public eye, who are in the least bit sensitive, begin to tread so carefully they become ineffectual. When this . happens, the reporter, whose legitimate job,'is to observe and report, or, when he wishes, to editorialize when it is made obvious to the reader that's what is being done, starts calling the shots. It's something to look out for. A magical discovery by Myrtle Winchester It's an unintentionally well- kept secret, the Lions Park in Pender Harbour, somewhat to the puzzlement of the local Lions Club who maintain and quietly promote their award- winning accomplishment. It is a 30 acre forest that gently integrates a variety of recreational facilities into its charm. The result to anyone who visits the site is the feeling that the park is a magical, personal discovery, like a natural meadow high in the hills or a secluded bay that surely no one's ever seen before or it would be inundated by tourists. The Lions Park is a little paradise for naturalists, photographers, and hikers who aren't athletes, and it provides a clean and tranquil setting for one and a quarter miles of trails, three picnic sites with 12 barbecue pits and tables, a covered 'longhouse' baseball diamond, bowling green, children's playgound and more. Perhaps the park seems forgotten because those who use it regularly do so unobtrusively. In addition to being a meeting place for Lions and Lioness Clubs, Masons, and Cubs, the onsite hall and park is used by the Harbour Artists, a\" Pender Harbour group that includes well known painters, Noreen Marshall and Wendy Simmonds. The group paints indoors when the weather is poor, but otherwise they take advantage of the inspirational wilderness landscape. The Pender Harbour and District Wildlife Society, in conjunction with the Fisheries Department, rears salmon in a hatchery on park grounds, part of a very successful salmonid enhancement project. A herd of Roosevelt elk, the result of a project to re-establish the species on the Sunshine Coast from Vancouver Island stock, regularly wanders through the park, as does.just about every other form of wildlife indiginous to the area. Creeks, waterfalls, marshes, and a variety of soil types provide ideal growing conditions for myriad botanical species that seasonally change the whole atmosphere and appearance of the park. In 1967 the Pender Harbour Lions Club obtained several government grants and the talents of some of its large and industrious membership to begin development of a public park on property north of Madeira Park. Although the terrain is mostly level, paths had to be terraced on steeper parts and footbridges had to be built over sections off the two tributaries of Meyers Creek that wind back and forth across the main trail. Government employment creation programs were available for the initial work, and a dozen unemployed young people from the area took advantage of the opportunity to spend a season working outdoors and learning new skills like running a chainsaw. In later years grants were obtained to hire students for summer work to improve and expand on the original features of the park. Morrison Hall is located on the park grounds, a facility with a complete kitchen and room for 50 or so people to have a party or dance, private or otherwise. The hall, dedicated to late president Harry Morrison, and a park caretaker's house was built between 1977 and 1981 by members who were professionals, skilled in construction trades, or who knew which end of an axe to use to split shakes for the roof of the club's con- \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD' tribution to the community. Forty percent of the materials were donated, and cash for the rest came from fundraisers like auctions and pancake breakfasts. The Lions ensure that all the money they raise in Pender Harbour goes back into the community. The Pender Harbour Lions Club won the international achievement award ten years ago for their park, considered the best contribution to a community in the district including British Columbia, Washington and Idaho, a district comprising over 450 Lions Clubs. The Lions Park is an ongoing project of the club, and future plans include completion of an archery range and expansion of the nature trails. In an official ceremony that marked the completion of the park, Jim Shaboit dedicated the park simply, \"To the people of Pender Harbour, forever.\" The Pender Harbour Lions Club endeavours to make sure that the people's park is the best that it can be.

From the upcoming book 'Unmarked Doorways' to be published by Harbour Publishing in 1989 Coast News, April 10,1989 Editor's Note: A copy of the following was received for publication. Harold Long Social Credit Caucus Parliament Buildings Victoria, B.C. I am a grade 6 student at Langdale Elementary School and our 'Challenge Group' is studying ecology. I am quite concerned about the contaminated sludge being dumped in Thornborough Channel. I would like for you to ask B.C. Environment Minister Bruce Strachan to pressure Environment Canada to stop allowing polluted materials to be dumped in Howe Sound. While I respect the efforts by the Socred government with regards to environmental concerns, I believe the Environment Minister must clean up our area before it is too late. I would also like to point out that neither Howe Sound nor Port Mellon was mentioned in the environment section of your report to the constituency of Mackenzie. I don't know if you realize that fishermen of Howe Sound are losing money because of this pollution and the government is not taking steps immediately to eliminate the dioxins in Howe Sound. As our local MLA, I think that you should pressure the government to stop this needless pollution. I have read in the papers that in the throne speech, it was mentioned that the government is going to be tough on polluters. Because I was not present when the throne speech Village benefits Editor: The more havoc a society wreaks only indicates how upset the people are. In other words, as mechanization, automation, specialization, computerization, industrialization and governmental compartmentalization increases we are only fooling ourselves in thinking that things are getting easier and better. When modernization gets to the point of where it is now in the western world, one could say that things are in quite a mess. Increased size of municipalities is not the answer. The village attitude is and always will be the only sane approach. Materialism does not and cannot increase in direct proportion to population, lest each and every one of us is given a mansion to live in. That is pretty doubtful. Society had better start socializing more, rather than performing communion with technology and advanced science. Western man is no longer successful, only excessive. For every dollar in our pocket, there is industrial waste. For every modern convenience, there is destruction of the environment. Over 1000 automobiles drive into Gibsons each day just so one person in each car can pick up their mail. Think of the waste in that small statistic alone. There ought to be at least six distinct villages between Langdale and Davis Bay, each with its own town council and each with its own administration, residential, commercial and industrial zones. Anyone disagreeing with a larger Gibsons municipality should seriously consider the benefits of a village of their own and in their own area. Keith Receveur Ex-mayor objects Editor: Press reports indicate that the Gibsons council may outdo itself again this year by granting $11,000 in largesse to the Gibsons and District Chamber of Commerce. I would like to hear justification for a grant of, roughly, $4 for each townsperson to the Chamber. The purpose of the Chamber is to promote their members' commercial interests. Why should I, as a taxpayer, support a self-interest group? The Chamber, generally speaking, consists of persons who support the 'user pays philosophy', but don't hesitate to beg and accept public monies to defray 59.46 percent of the Chamber's operating expenses. The Chamber may argue that they are helping the community by encouraging tourism. The only persons benefitting from that promotion are tourism operators and the few that might be employed at minimum wage or slightly better. It does absolutely nothing for senior citizens or someone working at Port Mellon, for example. On principle, council has no business making donations on my behalf. That should be my perogative. I, especially object to a forced donation to self- interest groups. Lome B. Blain Where's Nikki? Editor: I would appreciate if any of the readers could help me locate someone who writes by the name of Nikki Lee and who had a poem called 'Balloon' published in the 1985 Sparks from the Forge anthology. The editor of Anthology of Chinese Canadian Writers would like to get in touch with Nikki whom we have been unable to locate. I would be glad to pass on the information contained in the letter and can be reached evenings at 885-2418. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

And there needs to be a coordinated response organized- on a local level, as well as senior government levels. Small now has a better idea whom to call should such an incident occur again, but he hopes that next time it won't take so long to find out about the spill. \"Everybody makes mistakes,\" he said. \"It could hap pen to anybody.\" But if the person responsible for the spill had contacted the wharfinger or the Coast Guard immediately, clean up would have been a minor procedure. The person responsible for the spill would then be 'more like a hero', for reporting it and the clean up costs would be minimal. \"We always find out who did it,\" Small said. That person is liable for the costs incurred for cleaning up. Both environmentally and economically, it makes a lot more sense for anyone who accidentally leaks oil into the water to report it immediately.

I can't understand why they'd want to do this kind of damage.\" Alexander suggested that residents 'keep an eye out' for vandals and let either him or the RCMP know about anyone deliberately damaging public parks property. WEST HOWE SOUND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT GIBSONS FIRE DEPARTMENT PUBLIC NOTICE OUTDOOR BURNING WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF SAID DISTRICT Under the provisions of the Forest Act and with co-operation of the Forestry Service, the West Howe Sound Fire Protection District, and serviced by the Gibsons Fire Department, will issue Burning Permits in the following manner: FROM APRIL 1 TO OCTOBER 31,1989 Step No. 1 -An application form obtainable at the Gibsons Municipal Hall, South Fletcher Rd., Gibsons, will be filled out by applicant and deposited there. Step No. 2 -Twice a week or as required a duly appointed Fire Prevention Officer will take these application forms, personally inspect the proposed burning site, and if approved will upon the receipt of $5.00 issue a burning permit. NOTE: No permit is required for a screen covered incinerator. MEL BUCKMASTER, FIRE CHIEF surprise takeover Continued from page 1 Brett McGillivray, SCRD Director, said the present system, with Gibsons administrating the commission, just created confusion. \"Steve Alexander, Parks Superintendent for the SCRD, does all the work,\" McGillivray said. \"The SCRD collects the taxes, gives the money to Gibsons and then they give it back to us to pay our staff. This tinie last year we said 'how can we keep doing things this way!' \" He admits, though, that the SCRD handled the announcement of their decision badly. ' 'More warning would certainly have helped,\" he said. The SCRD, through Letters Patent, were able to set up the West Howe Sound Recreational Commission in 1980 under sec- don 699 of the Municipal Act. The functions of the commission include: financial assistance to the Gibsons Aquatic Centre, up to 75 percent of funds collected; development, improvement and maintenance of parks in Areas *E\ *F' and Gibsons; identification of future recreational needs in the community. The administration of the commission fell to Gibsons in 1980 because they had the facilities and staff to do the job. \"Gibsons' part of the commission has always been voluntary,\" Gurney said. Lorraine Goddard, Clerk Administrator for the Town of Gibsons, and, in that capacity, a participant in the commission, was instrumental in the creation of the commission in the first place. She was mayor of Gibsons at the time. Her job on the commission will now be taken over by a staff member of the SCRD. Gurney said that one reason for the delay in notifying commission members of the SCRD decision was to allow time to tell Goddard first. \"What we wanted was for Lorraine Goddard to be the first to know,\" Gurney said. \"The commission was one of her pet projects. She has served re Inn, Pender Harbour Aquatic and Fitness Centre instructors held a workshop on Thursday, April 6. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDLinda Nichols photo Halfmoon Bay Happenings Spring caution by Ruth Forrester, 885-2418 If you have spring cleaning in mind, be cautious with the handling and storage of paints, thinners, household cleaners, yard chemicals and tools involved.

There will be several other young performers taking part in this very special show which allows healthy young people the opportunity to help their peers who are not so fortunate. This has become an annual event in aid of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and it would be nice to see a packed house for this one. These kids are great and their enthusiasm is quite contagious. Even if you can't manage to go to the show it would be nice to support this cause, so when tickets become available, please buy a couple. FOR JOHN CHARLETON Friends of John Charleton of Halfmoon Bay were saddened to learn of his death on March 26. John and his wife Brucie settled in the area in 1952 where for two years they lived on Thormanby Island with their four children. At that time things were pretty primitive and water had to be packed, no easy task with a family. John commuted to Halfmoon Bay where he worked at logging, road construction and with the Forestry Department. He was an active member of the Welcome Beach Community Association where he was very popular, particularly among the shuffleboard group. He is survived by his loving wife Brucie, four children and four grandchildren, to whom our sympathy goes out at this sad time. COUNTRY FAIR This year's Halfmoon Bay Country Fair will be on July 7, 8 and 9 and plans are already underway for this popular event. A public meeting will be held on Friday, April 14 at Coopers Green Hall. All those who have been, or would care to be active in the planning are urged to attend.

Here's something for your head and your heart Religion is more than an affair of the heart. Some of the greatest advances in human history have come about when one or another of the great religions touched both the minds and the hearts of millions of people. That is happening again today. Baha'ullih, the Messenger of God for our age and Founder of the Baha'i Faith said that the time has come for the human race to take the next big step in its collective life: the establishment of unity among all the peoples and nations of the earth. Baha'i's around the world are putting into practice the plan Baha'u'lldh brought for uniting mankind, and in doing so we're finding that true religion is an affair of both mind and heart. h : 886-9294 NOTICE For the Information of Residents of the Egmont Area The B.C.

Coast News, April 10,1989 rive underwa Pender Harbour and District Wildlife Society volunteer Billy Griffith off Egmont transfers Chum salmon fry from their hatchery location at Lions Park to their release site at Anderson Creek. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDMyrtle Winchester photo To Anderson Creek Salmon fry transported by Myrtle Winchester Last week volunteers from the Pender Harbour and District Wildlife Society transported dogfish (Chum salmon) fry daily from the Lions Park hatchery to Anderson Creek for the second on a three-week hatching period that peaked on April 4. Of the approximately 250 thousand eggs that were fertilized last November, about 225 thousand fry hatched, an 85 percent survival rate and a tremendous increase from the 3 percent to 10 percent rate existing for eggs in the wild. \"This is why we're doing it,\" said Wildlife Society volunteer Billy Griffith, \"so we can get ten times the production. We could get 98 percent if we were lucky.\" - The fry were taken in plastic buckets by truck from the hatchery and released at their spawning ground, where male and female salmon were collected last fall so that fertilized eggs could be obtained for the hatchery. \"This is a public involvement program,\" said Griffith. \"The Lions provided a free site and storage building, and all of the labour is volunteer.\" The automated feeding system at the site is checked daily by local volunteers, as is the development of fry and progress of fertilized eggs in incubation trays. Eggs are identified as successfully fertilized and probable for hatching after they reach the 'eyed' stage, where a distinct eye is visible. \" The Chum fry's release time is determined by the water temperature and calculated by the number of heat units accumulated after the eyed stage is reached, a system that records and adds the daily temperature of the water circulating through the trays. Coho fry will be kept at the hatchery until late June, a time that gives them the optimal survival chance. The fry are hatched in water from a tributary of Anderson Creek that is pumped through the incubation trays by a gravity system. Eggs can be handled for only a maximum of five minutes after fertilization, and in this time they must be quickly placed in incubation boxes, where they stay until the egg sac separates and the tiny salmon is free-swimming. This project, carried out in cooperation with the federally and provincially funded Salmonid Enhancement Program, was initiated to increase the wild populations of Coho and Chum salmon and trout in Anderson Creek, Sakinaw Lake and, most recently, Waugh Creek. The Department of Fisheries provides most of the funding for equipment and fish food, although Wildlife Society volunteerrs have constructed some parts of the facility themselves, including a backups water supply system installed by Billy Griffith. A donation from the Area 'A' Property Owners Association helped build the hatchery in 1984 at the Lions Park north of Madeira Park. Wilson says ferry change misses the boat Reacting to the 1989 budget tabled by the Minister of Finance and Corporate Relations on March 30, 1989, B.C. Liberal leader, Gordon Wilson, said that the approach to solving the problems of the B.C. Ferries will not assist many small coastal communities because the British Columbia government has once again failed to recognize that the B.C. Ferries are a natural extension of our coastal highway system. Wilson, who will be attending the meetings of the Provincial Task Force, 'Freedom to Move' in Powell River on Monday, April 10, 1989 at 2:30 pm at the Beach Gardens Resort, also said that he will be presenting his concerns regarding the deplorable state of Highway 101 and the lack of a circle route to enhance coastal tourism between Vancouver Island, Powell River and the Sunshine Coast. \"Highway 101, the only service route for the residents and businesses of the Sunshine Coast and Powell River, is for two thirds of its route little more than a goat trail when compared to other highways in British Columbia. It is unacceptable that this government, who can increase expenditures in the Ministry of Transportation and Highways by 349.6 million dollars to a total of 1.16 billion dollars in the 1989/90 fiscal year, still does not have in its list of priorities for this budget year highway projects such as the Gibsons bypass, highway improvement from the Jolly Roger to Earl's Cove and needed highway improvement from Saltery Bay to Powell River. \"At best, the government will only provide piecemeal project work rather than an improvement of the overall system.\" Wilson further stated that if the government is truly committed to the enhancement of the economy of coastal communities it would be seeking ways to reduce ferry fares and to absorb the 72.7 million dollar debt currently owed by the B.C. Ferry Corporation into the highways and transportation function. by Myrtle Winchester A Pender Harbour and Egmont Chamber of Commerce membership drive is now underway, an attempt to re-establish the organization which suspended operations in 1984 when less- than-quorum attendance at most meetings made doing regular business impossible. Joyce Clay chaired a meeting at the Pender Harbour Senior Secondary School last Wednesday of 19 local businessmen, property owners, and residents to discuss the feasibility of reestablishing the chamber. Clay stressed that membership in the chamber is open to any resident of the area, regardless of occupation. \"Years ago,\" she said, \"the chamber used to be called the 'Board of Trade', and that's where the confusion is coming from. The Chamber of Commerce today is not a business organization. It is non-partisan, non-sectarian, and non- political.\" About 50 area residents recently signed their names on sheets supporting the chamber's ressurectibn, and the underlying idea that an organized lobby group is necessary to effectively approach senior government offices for funding. The restructuring of Pender Harbour and Egmont may be on the agenda of a future chamber meeting. Other projects of the chamber may include tourism promotion including operation of the Madeira Park Info Center (now run by the Community Club), upgrading of community directory signs, beautification of public property, and a welcome wagon. Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) Area 'A' Representative, Gordon Wilson, who attended the meeting, wholly supports the efforts to re-establish the Pender Harbour and Egmont Chamber of Commerce and offered any assistance he could give. Anyone interested in the activities of the chamber is invited to the next planning meeting on April -IShat- 7j30 pm. The/place of meeting will be announced. aw _r\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDs' i*r &El1l IPPER BOYS Trail Bay Centre Mali, Sechelt are tracking the KRICKET'S Congo Collection 885-5255 School District No. 46 (Sunshine Coast) Clerical Employment Typing Tests Persons interested in obtaining clerical positions with this School District are reminded that their applications will not be considered unless they have obtained the established standard in typing and clerical aptitude tests.

Plan to attend by phoning Olive Marshall so that she may plan the catering of the lunch. To further elaborate on the regional council, the provincial body is composed of over 100 branches which in turn are broken down into small regions of three or more branches which are, of course, determined geographically. The chairman of each regional council becomes a member of the provincial board, reporting the activities of his or her particular region. Meetings of each regional council are held semi-annually. It would be nice to have a good turn-out on April 12. Why don't you plan on attending? PAINTING GROUP Because of the above meeting our Wednesday afternoon painting group has relinquished its scheduled get-together in our favour. And, while on the sub-, ject of these artists, you should drop in to the hall some Wednesday afternoon and have a look at what these people are doing (some of them after only a few short months of participation). Their talents will amaze you! PLANT SALE This will be the last reminder to our members for the prepara tion of plants for our semiannual plant sale to be held in our hall starting at 11 am, April 15. All donations of plants will be thankfully received. And to our potential customers, your best selections can be had as soon as the doors open at 11 am. Usually a very good selection is available.

Bailey was speaking to the Economic Development Commission (EDC) last week in an attempt to secure funding for the next few years which would enable Travel Sunshine Coast to do tourism promotion off the Sunshine Coast. In her presentation to the commission, Bailey acknowledged a severe decline- in memberships but pointed out that, without long term security in funding, it was unrealistic to begin a major membership drive. She said there is a need to educate realtors and merchants on the value of tourism to this area, and a need for coordina tion between TSC and the chambers of commerce who run tourist information booths on the Coast. Bill Moore, economic - development officer, expressed concern at the funding formula reflected in the TSC budget which called for four times as much money from government sources as from private memberships. \"It seems a little out of whack,\" he said. \"With the loss of the Partners in Enterprise funding, we've been unable to fund the chambers. It seems that if we're going to look at this it would be unfair not to be funding the chamber information booths.\" Area E Director Jim Gurney suggested that for a long term money commitment the group needs a long term strategy. \"We started with a shotgun approach:, just getting the image out and known. We funded the chambers, to gather information. That's all been done. Now we haVe to put it together in a long term plan.\" Maurice Egan, chairman of the EDC added, \"You can't plan strategy until you have your organization together. Right now everyone is operating separately.'',; Art Giroux voiced support for Bailey's proposal and sympathy for TSC's situation, saying that the commission has taken a bandaid approach to funding them; in the past and, \"...it's time to put a little more into that industry.\" The commission agreed to compromise with Jim Gurney's suggestion that the $7500 requested to be broken down to fund specific projects for the time being. He urged Bailey to reactivate the task force and bring the tourist industry together with a long term strategy for developing that industry on the Sunshine Coast. With a strategy in place, and with the next set of elections establishing a regional board of directors for three years, Gurney said that it would be possible to look at a longer term funding commitment. Restructuring addendum by Ellen Frith Gibsons council voted to accept several additions to the Restructuring Committee's final report at their council meeting April 4. The additions were put forth by Alderman John Reynolds. Alderman Reynolds moved: That the Town of Gibsons apply formally to the Minister of Municipal Affairs requesting that the referendum ballots be counted separately inside and outside the town; That the Town of Gibsons strike a committee to continue discussionns on restructuring, initiate negotiations with the various ministries and prepare a public information program including all available facts and concerns; That the board and senior staff of the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) be in vited to meet with the senior staff and council of the Town of Gibsons to discuss the Moore Report titled, 'A Report on Local Government for the West Howe Sound Community'; That the voters list for the Town of Gibsons be updated prior to the referendum. Council discussed the prohibitive cost of updating a voters list and less expensive ways to the same end. It was suggested perhaps the provincial government, which requires an enumeration of voters within three years of a provincial election, might come to the rescue. Alderman .Gerry Dixon said that the Gibsons Volunteer Fire Department were worried about their ability to service a larger municipal area safely. When the time came, Mayor Strom said, all those issues would be carefully considered.

But there are more hazards in the average home than you may think. Some of these can be deadly unless parents or babysitters take precautions to guard against them.\" So begins one of the brochures in a kit offered by Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada as part of the second annual National Child Safety Week held this year between April 16 and 22. This year's theme is Child Safety: A Shared Responsibility, and the week is co-sponsored by Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada and the Canadian Juvenile Product Associations. \"Last year, almost 3000 children under five years of age were treated in the emergency rooms of the six hospitals that participate in our department's accident injury reporting program,\" said Bernard Valcourt, Minister, Consumer and Corporate Affairs, Canada. \"Obviously this is only a small pro portion of all the children seeking treatment in doctors' offices and emergency rooms following accidents.\" Many accidents are caused by burns, poisonings, or falls that need never happen. Parents can prevent such accidents by careful supervision of children and their surroundings and by. knowing what safety features to look for whenever they buy baby products, toys or equipment. Although government safety regulations on a wide range of children's furniture, toys and equipment have been in force for a number of years, many parents buy items second hand or come in possession of them as hand-me-downs. These items often do not meet with present government regulations and extra care should be taken in using them. Along with the more general information of making a child's environment safer, Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada is issuing two warning bulletins. They are asking parents to be alert to the choking hazards of broken toys, and to the dangers School taxes debated of some accordion-style baby gates. The department's Product Safety Branch warned that children under the age of three have a tendency to put all types of objects into their mouths. Recently, a 22-month-old boy died after a cone-shaped piece of broken finger crayon lodged in his throat. Most crayons are intended for use by children aged three and older. However, certain types, specifically finger crayons, are used by children under the age of three. These children should be supervised when they are playing with crayons and any broken pieces should be disposed of immediately. A warning concerning some accordion-style baby gates follows the recent death of a 21-month-old Ontario toddler. The child died after her neck became wedged in one of the top Vs of the gate and was the second such death to be reported in Canada. Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada develops and enforces regulations and promotes voluntary standards concerning the safety of consumer products. But, around children, even the safest product can be harmful if not used or maintained properly or if it is used in an unsafe manner or in dangerous circumstances. Through awareness campaigns such as National Child Safety Week, government hopes to promote understanding between consumers and business of important product safety issues. tulft shop THRIFTY'S AND HELP THE GIBSONS 886-2488 or Box 598 Tues-Sat 10-4 \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD>\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD->\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD - - \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD]* - - m. . - \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'-._ \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD . . \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD i_ \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD my^mJmf-ek,'me - a. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD..' m,eei+^eM%&hm\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDi;m, \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD mi'm.

COWER POINT ROAD, CIBSONS LANDING Continued from page 1 raised through local taxes, an increase of $669,000 over last year. This will create a 10 per cent tax increase between now and 1990. For a $100,000 house this will be a jump from the past $9.10 per $1000 assessment to $9.50 in 1989 and $10 in 1990. In other words, the owner of such a house would be paying about $300 more a year in taxes, or less than $3 a day. In some cases, increased homeowner grants will partially offset this. Several people pointed out that the real problem is the change in government funding policies for education which shifted the tax burden from commercial to residential property. \"We're pinning the tail on the wrong donkey,\" said Lome Blain. \"What can we do about it?\" asked Vic Vaughan. \"You can write your MLA,\" said Maureen Clayton, \"or run for school board!\" WESTWOOD- A home you can afford because you can build it yourself We facnirV'hiiki the components fnrni only the finest materials, lim assemble them. or have them assembled!

Nancy Baker, the Volunteer Action Centre's referral coor- e ot vo dinator, says that the centre acts as a referral service between those persons who volunteer their services in community work and the groups who need volunteers. \"We are not a placement service,\" she said, \"but with 600 volunteers and 71 agencies registered with us we are well able to assist both volunteer and agency. \"Most agencies recruit their own volunteers and we only assist in any way we can when they request it of us. \"We have aided teenagers who request experience in community projects,\" said Nancy, \"and to give only a few examples of the volunteer services we are associated with there are those who teach English as a second language, St. Mary's hospital auxiliary, Big Brother as it sets out to form a group on the Coast, the Sunshine Coast Handicapped Association and the newly opened Kirkland Centre. \"Many agencies in community work only function with the aid of volunteers.

Book Week by Pam Feichtner On behalf of the Gibsons Public Library, Mayor Diane Strom has proclaimed April 15 to 21 as National Book Week. Particular emphasis is given to Canadian books and authors during this week. On Saturday, April 15, there is to be a book sale in the Marine Room, under the library from 10 am to 4 pm. There is an excellent selection of books to choose from this year, many of them almost new. Recently an enthusiastic group of concerned citizens met to work towards forming a 'Friends of the Library Group' to assist the Gibsons Public Library stay alive and well. The first official meeting will be on April 19 at 7:30 in the Marine Room. We encourage everyone interested in the future of the library to attend this meeting. The Town of Gibsons has kindly donated the use of the Marine Room for this occasion, as their tribute to National Book Week. The focus of the group is to help the referendum pass, raise funds and contribute to community awareness. National Book Week will also be a Tine Free Week' and we ask that all overdue books be returned, so others may enjoy them. Check under the beds, on top of the fridge, the trunk of the car, all places likely and unlikely and bring them back, no questions asked. A library is a^vital part of any community and National Book Week is an excellent time to make a visit to the library. Show your support and enjoy the wonderful world of books. Film slides On Friday, April 14 at 8 pm at the Arts Centre in Sechelt, Carol and Brett McGillivray will share slides of the trip that the McGillivray family took to the Far East last summer with their children Jake, age 13, and Megan, age 9.

Earlier in the day I had purchased several packages of instant food - this being my holiday too. However, toujours domestic, I couldn't resist trying out the camper's new stove. The muffins, we decided, were really good but then came the piece de resistance - dessert. We had decided on lemon pudding. It cooked itself beautifully, was ready in perfect time, but it was kind of difficult to wrench your teeth away from it. Still...it kept them amused and that's not always easy when you're camping! Here's the real, from scatch, version: LEMON PUDDING 1 cup milk 1 tablespoon butter 1 cup sugar 3 tablespoons flour V* teaspoon baking powder 1 lemon 2 eggs, separated 1. Scald the milk. 2. Grate the lemon rind, and squeeze out juice. 3. Cream the butter and sugar. 4. Beat the lemon rind and egg yolks into the butter. 5. Add the flour and baking powder. 6. Blend in the milk. 7. Beat the egg whites until standing in stiff peaks and folk into mixture. 8. Pour into an oven-proof dish. Place this in a tin containing hot water one-third up the sides of dish. 9.

The Wilson gang's first assault on a federal target is planned with even more meticulous care than usual. For days, Herb and the others study the route of the armoured mail truck as it makes its way along First Street from the railway station. At the junction of Alameda and First, the truck crosses the Southern Pacific tracks. The intersection is guarded by gates, controlled by a watchman in a tower. Harry Davis, the watchman, is an elderly and rather naive fellow. He becomes a pivotal figure in Herb's plan of attack. One evening, Harry Davis receives an unexpected visitor. He is a big man in a dark suit with the cocksure look of a racktrack wisenheimer. But the credentials he proffers certify him to be a federal officer, a member of the dry squad, charged with enforcing the Volstead Act. Davis, who prides himself on being a scrupulously law-abiding citizen, is suitably impressed. \"We'd like to enlist your cooperation on a liquor smuggling case,\" declares the agent crisply. \"We have information that certain bootleggers are using an armoured government mail truck to transport their hooch. \"You probably know the vehicle I mean. Well, tomorrow night, we plan to ambush these criminals. What we want you to do, Mr. Davis, is drop the gate when they show up so that we can effect the arrest.\" Y \"Well, I'll be jiggered,\" says Davis, goggle-eyed with excitement. \"I know the truck you mean. Never would have taken those fellers for gangsters. But sure, officer, I'll do just like you say. Those rascals deserve to be behind bars.\" Back at Joe Bertsche's apartment on Alexandria Street, Cox almost doubles over with mirth, as he recounts the incident to Herb and the others, a couple of hours later. \"You should have seen that silly old guy's face. He really thought I was a fed. He fell for it hook, line and sinker,\" gasps Cox. \"By God, Cox,\" laughs Lou, \"if you get much better at this acting business, they'll be signing you up for the flickers.'\" Even reserved Herb allows himself a polite chuckle. \"Excellent work indeed,\" he says. \"Well, gentlemen, I would venture to say that things are all set for our little operation.\" It is March 3, 1921...zero hour. At approximately 7:30 that evening, the five gang members gather again at the Alexandria, run over the details a final time and make their way to First and Alameda. Herb waits in the car to watch for the truck. Bertsche, Cox and Stahl position themselves on the street near the gates. Cox climbs the tower to make sure Harry Davis gets his signals straight. The old watchman, blissfully oblivious that he is about to expedite a highjacking, greets Cox like an old friend. \"Tonight's really the night, eh?\" he asks excitedly. \"Yes siree,\" says Cox. \"My men are stationed and everything's ready to go. Soon as I get the high sign, you drop the gates and we'll have those rumrunners dead to rights.\" Davis grins like a kid on Christmas morning. \"Gosh, I never thought I'd actually be helping the G men,\" he says happily.

Isn't that nice. Just what you needed, right? This quote was taken from the article 'Crystal Lightlink 1989' in the spring edition of the Canadian Holistic Healing Association newsletter. The crystal light link, by the by, is coordinated with energy shifts and influxes. This one being on Sunday, April 16. For those who are having trouble keeping track, let's just do a quick review. There was the first World Peace Meditation on December 31, 1986. That's become an annual, worldwide event hitting on December 30, actually, in this part of the world, so that it's coordinated with people all over the world who are meditating on peace. There was the Harmonic Convergence on August 16 and 17, 1987. This was a time when there was a shift, an energy intensification, directed toward the earth and its inhabitants, to begin a purification process which was to last five years. The end point appears to be a kind of mass transformation into more evolved beings. (I'll vote for that). In some way connected to, and aiding the process, there are supposed to have been kind of 'mini harmonic convergences' starting on February 15, 1988 and reoccurring every three months on the 15th day. Now the Crystal Lightlink 1989 may be nothing. There is a lot of'hype'going.on these days and, as Doonesbury said, this might just be one more excuse for a craft fair. On the other hand, none of these 'events' cost anything if you simply use them as a time to do a little extra meditation, contemplation or prayer. According to the aforementioned article, on April 16, there will be a massive activation and reprogramming of all crystals and crystalline structures on the earth. That includes everything from your favourite pet rock to Second Mariner's Fair The Gibsons Yacht Club invites everyone to their second annual Mariner's Fair to be held Saturday, May 13 at the Gibsons Marina, starting at noon \"until 5 pm. Now is the time to start rounding up all your equipment that you would like to sell, swap or even to look for something to buy. Please reserve your table early by phoning Carol at 886-2666 'or Eric at 886-7120. The cost per table is $10 and may be, shared. Anyone wanting to' volunteer for the food and beer garden phone Eric. your body. There have been 13 focal points for this energy named, one of them being Vancouver Island. My personal suspicion is that the focal point is here on the Sunshine Coast, they just think we're part of the island. Bearing that in mind, there may be some ways to use this time to help you make the changes in your life that you've been wanting. Take out all your crystals, pet rocks and personal jewelry and clean them, finishing up with a rinse in cold flowing water. (A running tap is just fine.) Then keep them in your hands as you pray or meditate on April 16. Secondly, on a more personal basis, this would seem to be the ideal time for resolutions. I would suggest that you take some time, especially around dawn but anytime during the day will do, and visualize the kind of person you want to be. Imagine any old habits, patterns or programming that you want to eliminate, being washed out of you by a white light, coming through the top of your head. Then picture yourself acting in healthier, happier ways in possible future situations. My source warns that, besides an additional confusion in daily living you may experience physical sensations such as tingling, twitches and ringing in the ears following this time, as your body adjusts to the cellular changes. As always, I have no personal knowledge that this date will have special significance. But as long as it doesn't cost you anything, extra time spent in meditation and prayer, doing positive visualization can't hurt. It just might help you, as an individual, and the world in general. So why not try it? Gardening notes by Marguerite There's a special day not fixed on any calendar when spring comes to the gardener. There's something in the air which appeals to the heart of the good gardener and beginner, and the warm, sunny mornings reawaken us. It's a good idea to start the many spring gardening jobs with caution, in order to climatize our bodies to exertion, and not have sore, aching backs and necks, etc. Work in small time limits, rest, have a break, then continue again. Do a little each day. It's most encouraging and very good exercise. Everyone agrees that mixing growing plant and growing children is a good way to help make the world better. If the young child's natural world is a world of play, let the gardening be playful. Have a family mystery box of old seed packets and see what happens, or, schools could have an experiment station to show how plants grow. It might result in a career in horticulture. The Gibsons Garden Club are doing its bit by allotting a bursary at Elphinstone school for any who may qualify for further studies. We are also sponsoring another 'largest sunflower' contest for kids. Get your 'Russian Giants' or 'Pacific Giants' or 'Gigahteous' or 'Manchurian* seeds now. They are a hardy annual, and should be planted the latter part of April. Coast News, April 10,1989 13.

It has been a wonderful and exciting past three weeks, filling each day with something new and watching a bond form with one another that will last a lifetime.

I would particularly like to thank: Marie Connor, Carol Skytte and John, Tovia, Hannah, Willie and friend for the great afternoon of curling; the Toynbee's for being so kind; the host families that helped with carpooling; Sylvia Blackwell for her beautiful cakes; Ken and Mike Eidet for all the 'extras' they did for the students; the students and teacher of Chatelech cooking class for providing the students with a lunch; and Gibsons Travel and Terry and Vicky from Westcoast Explorers Club for making our day trips in their new bus so enjoyable.

Two of us in the office were absolutely starving to death and felt we'd like something really tasty for lunch. What to have? My friend came up with a stroke of sheer genius - \"Let's get some fish and chips from the Sechelt Fish Market - there's such a delicious aroma when you jpass it.\" Not content with just the fish and chip order, she decided on the Sechelt Special, ample for us to share. It was indeed special. There was one beautifully cooked piece of cod, two deep fried oysters and two deep fried prawns, together with a generous portion of scrumptious chips. The price for all this was only $6.55! The food here does not consist of frozen strips of fish zapped in a microwave - it is fresh fish deep fried while you wait, and on nice sunny days one can sit outside to eat and watch the world go by in downtown Sechelt. Although the Sechelt Fish Market specializes in fish and chips, they also provide a variety of sandwiches including shrimp salad, shrimp and avocado, smoked salmon, lox and bagel, tea, coffee, juice and pop. This is not a \"Quick Take-out\" place - be prepared to watch and wait while your meal is freshly cooked. It doesn't take long and is well worth waiting for. In keeping with tradition, you get your fish and chips wrapped in newspapers to keep them nice and hot till you're ready to eat. The Sechelt Fish Market is open from 10 am to 6 pm Monday to Saturday and is closed Sundays.

March 24 to April 1. Teams from Canada, the U.S. and Finland participated. I had the opportunity of attending the tournament and interviewing some players as well as the coach and manager of the Finnish team. Upon entering the arena at Port Coquitlam I was impressed by the organizers' efforts for the event. I was greeted with cordiality and enthusiasm. The foyer was filled with inspired players, hopeful parents and cheering fans, relatives and friends and an aura of intense excitement filled the air. A group of intent hockey players from Grand Forks were discussing the Finnish/Edmonton game after the second period when I approached them. Kelly Soobotin introduced himself as the captain and a defenceman on the Grand Forks team. He commented favourably on the hospitality the team had experienced while at the tournament but his only concern was apprehension at the prospect of playing against teams from larger centres. Soobotin said that coming from a rather small town like Grand Forks it was a bit \"scary\" to compete against teams from Vancouver, Edmonton or Port Coquitlam. But, up to this point, they had won all four games they had played. I also had the occasion of conversing with a 10 year 'veteran' referee, Cary Blackburn from Maple Ridge. He stated that the hockey players in this particular tournament were skilled players but added the body contact was not as visible as during the regular season. He felt the Finnish team did not appear to be as physical as their Canadian and American counter-parts. Blackburn was also impressed by the respect <\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD shown the referees by the community and the participating teams in general. After the Finnish/Edmonton game I met with the Finnish head coach Kari Andersson to discuss his view on hockey. The Finnish team the Karhu- Kissat, Team 73 from Helsinki was honoured to be playing in Canada, or as Mr. Andersson said, \"the mother country of hockey.\" The Finnish team consisted of 22 players and 17 other people including the coach, assistant coaches, trainers and parents. The total cost of the trip was $60,000 (Canadian) which was raised from sponsors, parents and various miscellaneous hockey fund- raising functions such as bottle drives, etc. Each hockey player contributed $1400 while the parents donated $1600. On this particular trip they played in Calgary (North Central) and won by an impressive score of 25 to 2, March 20. The second game was against the Edmonton Athletics, March 23, which the Finns won 10 to 6. Other games won by the Finnish team included North Vancouver Blues 7 to 0, March 25; Port Coquitlam Vikings 6 to 3, March 26; and on March 28 they beat the Edmonton Canadians 4 to 3. However, in their final game of the tournament against South .Edmonton, the Finns succumbed to a 4 to 2 ' S.C Golf'& Country Club Spring opener by Frank Nanson r Ladies are reminded once again that the spring \"or season opener luncheon is on this Tuesday! April 11. For those who will be golfing there will be pairs of mixed 9-hole and 18-hole chosen to play as teams in a fun contest which will open with a ^shot-gun' start at 8:30. You must get there early to be organized into teams, so 8 am may be a good arrival time. The 18-hole ladies were in a playoff on Tuesday qualifying for the 2-ball tournament which is to be played at the Newlands Course. Qualifiers were the team of Marion Reeves and Isabel Rendleman with a net 78 and next to them were Ruby Head and Pat Scarr with a net 79. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'''/{\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDThe winners in the general play were as follows: Connie Grant with a net 71, first flight; Joe Emerson with a net 69, se cond flight; and Marg Hunter net 72, third flight. -The 9-hole ladies played using irons only in a low gross tournament on Tuesday. This makes it more difficult for the 'big hitters' using their number one wood, and sometimes results.in the 'iron lovers' taking the prize. The winners of the first flight was Margo Matthews and of second flight was Shirley Gurr. The senior men had a turnout of 76 on Thursday, who paid no attention to the weather reports of the oncoming monsoon. Luck would have it that the storm hit after the 9 holes had been played. Vic Vaughan took the honours with the low gross. Low net winners were Glynn Davies, first; Jim Smythe, second; and Larry Farr, third. Norm 'dead-eye' Constantine was closest to the pin on the drive to the 8th hole. 1+1 Revenue Canada Taxation Revenu Canada Impot Tax questions? We've got the answers!

In Finland there are seven divisions in hockey starting with 6/7 year olds 'G' Division; 8/9 'F Divison; 10/11 'E' Divison; 12/13 'D' Divison; 14/15 'C Division; 16/17 \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDB' Division; 'A' equivalent to the Canadian Junior 'A' status, 18/20 year olds. Body contact commences in the 'D' Division, 12/13 year olds. From the age of 15 years and older the hockey players are involved in body building at a gym as well as developing 'on ice- skills. To enroll a hockey player in the 'C Divison (Bantam) the cost is approximately $600 to $700 per season, while the cost for an aspiring hockey player in the 'G' Division (6/7) is $250 to $300 per year. The cost of a pair of skates for a six year old is $200 to $300 while equipment costs $500 per player. The cost of a hockey stick is approximately $20. However, the cost of a pair of skates at the Bantam level is $700 to $800. After the age of eight years up, the hockey players are permitted to play in hockey tournaments, while under that age they play in one tournament per season. As in Canada the parents drive or carpool their children to the various hockey centres where games are played. When the players have attained hockey status they can compete for a position with the Suomen Meisters League, the Finnish National League, which includes the 19/20 year old age group. This is the equivalent to our National Hockey League and players are paid up to $125,000 per season. The Finns also have a Recreational League where the ice ren tal is $75 per hour. Mr. Andersson said a great deal of emphasis in Finland is placed on stick handling, skating and body contact. He added blatantly, that they were here in Canada for one reason, and that is to win. He stated that they 'hate to lose'. I interjected at this point and asked Mr. Andersson if this was the most important aspect of the tournament to him as opposed to the social aspect and he very emphatically stated \"yes\". However, upon interviewing Jani Ahonen (16), he seemed to enjoy the social interaction commenting that the highlight of the trip to him was skiing at Whistler. Jiri Bertula, very timidly added the best part were the \"girls\". Mr. Andersson gave credit \"for a job well done\" by the organizers of the Port Coquitlam Bantam Hockey Tournament. He was impressed by the billeting arrangements and, also, the cordial reception given to them by the organizers and the fans. He said that a New Year's Tournament will be held in Helsinki, Finland December 28, 1989/January 1, 1990, and he asked that I extend his personal invitation to all Bantam teams considering entering this tournament. Regardless of the Finnish philosophy that to win is of paramount importance, the young players on the Finnish team appeared to enjoy themselves in not only competing against the Canadian and American teams but also in cultivating new friendships and being introduced to a different lifestyle. There were unforgettable memories they will be bringing back to Finland that will last a lifetime.
