Phone 836-2622 Volume 26 Number 27, July 4, 1973. 10c per copy More water wanted At last week's meeting of the Regional District board a petition from residents along Highway 101 from the village to Pratt Road, including Pratt Road, requested the Regional board do what it could to improve fire protection with an adequate water supply. The letter was turned over to Gibsons council as it maintains' the water supply for that area. Those signing the petition were Wally Venechuk, Elsie E. Earles, t D. M. Carruthers, M. Alvaro, Phil Raines (Twin Creek Lumber Co.), T. Connor (Kenmac), L. Coates (Peninsula Plumbing), Patricia Cramer, John Stanway (Peninsula Transport), and Dr. L. Pat.Perry (Coast Animal Clinic).; - v-' Council discusses alarm systems Two types of fire alarm systems were discussed by Gibsons council? last week when Aid.' Kurt Hoehne, chairman of the fire committee ,presei\ted v.,. jtwo^ad^ea?- epTr^^g^^,alaxxn system.. 'V . '. He\" outlined the present system of seven phones,., one at the fire hall, one with the RCMP and five in firemen's homes. Due to sickness, shift work, arid being out of town, the effectiveness of the seven fire phones and the department is lessened, he said. Fourteen men have to be called by phone under this system. Aid. Hoehne desired an increase in the number, of phones . and suggested a Motorola outright purchase to cost more than $9,000. This would be a despatching ' centre with four man coverage on a 24 hour basis. This Mayor Walter Peterson and aldermen argued was too expensive to which Aid: Hoehne agreed. An alternative was to increase the existing seven phones of the B.C. Tel system to 24 on a five year contract which would cost the village $710 annually. Aid. Hoehne also suggested doubling the number of tied- ^in phones which would entail 14 of the 22 men. This he figured would cost about $135 monthly. In commenting on fire department expenses Mayor Pe- ~ terson maintained the fire chief was pushing too hard. Aid. Robinson agreed. The clerk, (Dave Johnston, suggested that perhaps the fire department could find a way to reduce other budget items to \"cover the cost of suggested plans. -> o-- Fif-V1 starting, early Saturday7. morning completely destroyed Elphinstone Secondary School centre block causing a loss es-, timated at more than $1,500,- 000. The cost of replacement will be in the vicinity of $3,- 000,000. J. S. Metzler, secretary-treas urer and Mrs. Agnes Labonte, school board chairman, say the loss is covered by insurance. Two wings of the school on the east and west sides were saved from the ravages of the terrific blaze fanned, by a strong west wind. An investigation by-the provincial fire marshal's office produced the information that there were ho signs of arson and. that the fire started in the basement on the east side of the main entrance. This section was a storage room used. - in part as a classroom. Origin-; of the fire is unknown according to the fire marshal's report. The report also surmises that the fire had' been burning about one hour before it was noticed, and it built itself up to an explosive force. Early iri the fire, Gibsons firemen attempted to get water into the sprinkler system over the gymnasium but owing to lack of pressure the water would not rise. As a result of rocks in the water supply the Roberts Creek pumper was damaged. It can be repaired locally but the \"Num1 imber 'three*i^ck**ot 'Cfi * area department was damaged so badlly it w;as shipped to Vancouver Sunday morning and will be away one week. According to available information the building was vacated at the end1 of the janitorial working day. During the summer vacation period, daytime occupancy by the janitor staff is the rule. The heat of the blaze was so terrific that firemen were unable to get inside the building and luckily _wme records ^gallery in the foyer of group from the princ-pal's v office ^pictures of graduations past, ^^ _ff__ents,* teachers \" and\"' ~Oh %look-rs -with' assistance of -a front end loader worked with determination in spite of heat and advancing flames to remove most of the equipment from the science labs, the shops and salvaging the band instruments, with Bob Rutter, maintenance supervisor, helping.

They came from the Gibsons, Roberts Creek, Sechelt and Port Mellon fire departments. The building was fully insured and board members are awaiting insurance company representatives to assess the fire loss which is expected to be in the region of $1,500,000 more or less. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD; Gibsons RCMP. aided by a detachment from; Sechelt controlled traffic and worked' with the.fire departments, whenever such help was required. ;Placedl>y a similar carving in Jtime for the opening of the re- 'built school. v Principal D.

He also said he found the school's false ceilings a haz ard plus the fact there did not appear to be any fire walls. It appeared to him and other firemen that the fire doors were not in a closed position. ^ The chief complained about rocks and pebbles blocking hose nozzles. This was supported by Chief Glen. Krause of Roberts Creek who said his men had to uncouple nozzles to remove'rocks that blocked nozzle mouths. Damage occurred to one of the Roberts Creek trucks but it is expected it can be repaired locally. -* \" \"T6\"~help out the- wateV Supply\" trucks 'with tanks' made continuous' journeys to Marine Drive at the former taxi office location to fill from a hydrant which supplied more water without putting too much strain on the hose lines supplied from the mains on the highway. Chief Krause complimented Chief Ranniger for the fine job he did directing the operation, maintaining he did the right things at the right time. In view, of the fact the fire departments had not combined before Chief Krause found working with the other departments a real experience. He;, said the interchange of equipment proved a big help. Two end sections of the building which suffered, serious smoke damage and the upheaval of removing equipment contained at the west end, the wood, metal and electrical shops and at the east end four science laboratories, the commercial class and the band room.

Don't blame the firemen! The tragic side of the Elphinstone school fire was revealed when volunteer firemen, armed with hose, stood at the door of the school waiting for water to spurt from the nozzles but none came. They were victims of the lack of municipal council action on demands for an improved hydrant system,-specifically at the school. Actually there was plenty of water. Fire Chief Dick Ranniger has continually asked for better hydrant service. So did Bill Scott, former fire chief who retired three years ago. At the council meeting of June 26, Aid. Kurt Hoehne, chairman of council's fire committee, presented a report dealing with the fire department during which he stated the firemen, and he as chairman, felt a lack of interest on the part of council. To this the mayor replied the firemen were being too pushy. He was supported by Aid. Winston Robinson, acting mayor. Last February a report was presented to council on the effectiveness of fire hydrants and standpipes. Aid. Hoehne and Aid. Robinson checked the system along with firemen and found as follows: A two inch standpipe in front of Fire Hall to combat a fire in the Imperial Bulk Plant. Result: Insufficient water to keep a pressure of 55 pounds of the discharge hose. No. 2 hydrant at Elphinstone High School provided two 2% /inch supply lines and the friction loss was responsible, for the drop in discharge pressure to 45 pounds. A No. 1 hydrant would increase the supply line to 4.V& inches and less friction would increase the effectiveness of keeping the required, pressure for maximum protection. We are protecting a community value of approximately $1,600,000. Although general additions to our high school have been added over the years, the fire protec- . tion has not been increased to the extent necessary. Corner Pratt Road, Highway' 101: 2^_ inch stand- pipe out of a 6 inch mainline. Test showed insufficient water supply for pump trucks. Tank trucks for this area are a must for combating fire. Abbs Road: 2% inch standpipes out of a 2 inch main, water supply insufficient, fire protection very minimal. , Wyngaert Road: Same condition as Abbs Road area. 1 Hydrant near pool hall: Water pressure and supply sufficient and acceptable, for maximum effectiveness. Recommendation: A detailed study should be made with the assistance of our Fire Department on the effectiveness of our fire protection concerning areas of priorities, water supply, equipment and cost. For the immediate assistance to the Fire Department a print of our water mains should be made available as requested previously. Fire Chief Dick Ranniger when'asked to present a list of hydrant priorities produced the following on Feb. 18: i Elphinstone High School, replace with No. 1 hydrant. Apartment Blocks on School Road: No. 2 hydrant. Wyngaert Rd. near apartment blocks: No. 2 hydrant. Imperial Marine Bulk Plant (Hendrickson's): No. 2 hydrant. Sunnycrest Shopping Centre: No. 1 hydrant. Highway 101 at Pine Rd.: No. 1 hydrant. | Highway 101 at Pratt Rd.: No. 1 hydrant. Highway 101 between School Rd. and Wyngaert Rd.: No. 2 hydrant. Also, areas covered by standpipes of low flow pressure. At the May 15 council meeting Aid. Hoehne also noted the fire hydrants mentioned in the previous report needed prompt attention. , There might be a good reason for this lack of interest on part of council in its attitude towards the needs of fire safety, but spending money on a fire department then neglecting good water accessibility does not make sense. There may be an explanation. By STEVEN LEE ' Four months ago the northern most of the green South Pacific isles rose from the sek before by eyes. Since that first day life has been good and New Zealand and her people have treated me well. . My adventures in New Zealand began with my arrival in the first week of February. The national anniversary celebrations were an excellent beginning to New Zealand. The navy and the governor-general, Sir Denis Blundell played major roles in the festivities \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD my first indication of the importance of defence (ibothi military and. economic) in New- Zealand; also my first observation of the importance of the British tie between these far flung islands and the centre of the empire. In the subsequent months since the Waitangi celebrations I have followed closely the activities of the governor-general tried to evaluate his role in New Zealand's life, and kept close watch on the rapidly changing relations between this nation under its new Labor government and the Mother Country (for Britain has virtually cast off this still dependent colonial left-over in ordfer to gain entry into the \"New Europe.\") Relations between Great Britain and New Zealand will require careful study, and are changing rapidly. A future column will be devoted in total to these ties and changes, it will suffice to say at present, that the British colonial history of this nation, the Westminster system of government, and small details such as the ever conspicuous Union Jack and 'God Save the Queen' at television sign-off have helped make this Canadian far more at home here than I have ever been whilst visit- \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD iriig cities in the United States.

They preserved their language and culture, and through the enterprise of such men as Peter Buck (who put themselves 7 through university and law school) gained full legal rights' . and guaranteed seats in Parliament before the dawn of the 20th Century. New Zealand prides itself on its race relations and it has much to be proud of.

But Waitangi was more than an initial glance at New Zealand history. The, celebrations and my stay at Paihia in the spectacular Bay of Island- gave me my' first impressions of New Zealand today: And re markable impressions they were. There are the obvious physical impressions that one makes of New Zealand at first glance. I had moved from mid)-winter (remember January) to midsummer, one of the hottest and driest in the nation's history \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD in one easy sweep across the Pacific. Not only is the climate of Auckland and Northland subtropical and thus .very different from anywhere in Canada \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD but the very seasons are reversed.. My first days in New Zealand were hot ones\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD; and very dry.' And the land itself is very different than any I have known. Northland's topography consists of low rolling hills and a few scattered lumpy mountains, carpeted in thick forests of leafy tree ferns and giant kauri trees. And everywhere there are sheep and greeny green, paddocks. The; thing that impressed me first about the land was its tidyness. Whether field or forest, nothing was out of place; the mountains never too high, the valleys never too wide \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD it was neat, green and spectacular \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD not in the grandiose way of the Rockies or the sweeping Prairies \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD but in its own perfectness. The land has been tamed but not spoiled; the sky is blue, the beaches; sparkling white and untouched, and cows and sheep graze undisturbed by encroaching urban sprawl or ugly freeways. The land itself was the first thing that impressed me in this South Pacific Nation. N. Richard McKibbin A PERSONAL, INSU11ANCE J5ERVICE NOW AT NEW LOCATION, MARINE DRIVE GIBSONS, B.C.

TAURUS - April 21 to May 21 You are slowly entering a period of a \"new life.\" This might seem harsh at first, but in the long run it will enable you to achieve all the things you have always wanted. GEMINI - May. 22 to June 21 This should work out to be a very good' week for Gremini especially in social affairs. Short journeys are favored, and there will be many friends around you to help you enjoy yourself. CANCER - June 22 to July 22 A \"new start\" is life is most definitely indicated. A heavy load will undoubtedly be lifted highlighted. LEO - July 23 to August 23 If you don't \"buck the tide\" in human relationships, you should . do very well indeed this week. By flaring up at some trivial incident you could spoil all the good that is coming to you. VIRGO - Aug. 24 to Sept. 22 Look beyond the work that you are now engaged in. A lot of creative ability is waiting to be \"opened-up\" Domestic affairs are most important right now. Be kind, and it will benefit you greatly, LIBRA - Sept. 23 to Oct. 23 The doors of opportunity are opening in your favor.; This will be a long slow process, but it's1 coming. No \"overnight miracles\" will change this. You may find something that you never dreamed possible. SCORPIO - Oct. 24 to Nov. 22 Someone \"behind the scenes\" is probably going \"all-out\" for your benefit. Profit by this knowledge, and bide your time Dont try to push things too fast or you may end up by losing. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 23 Dec. 21 Family matters are most important at this time, and can do much to help you. While \"luck\" may not seem to be off your shoulders. Romance and social life are strongly with you, you can be sure that \"puiblic relations\" are very much so. CAPRICORN - Dec. 22-Jan. 20 Take some time out to evaluate just what exactly your ambitions, in life really are. You'll gain much from this self-evaluation, and you may come up with an entirely new concept of life. AQUARIUS - Jan. 21 -Feb. 18 \"Study\" at the present time is most favored for Aquarius. It is quite possible that sometime this week you will come up with an idea that could \"set you up\" for a long time, to come. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD PISCES - Feb. 19 - March 20 You should enjoy a most harmonious week with associates and close relatives. You could enjoy a good holiday with friends and loved ones but toe extra careful on the highway and around, water.

Tests in Canada showed steelhead trout reared in hatcheries learn to swim better after five days of forced exercising. The exercising tests are timed for 15 minutes a day for five days followed by 15 minutes .;a day for the next ten days. These tests involve the increase of water velocity iv raceways by reducing depth. Before exercising it was found only five young steelhead in 36 were good swimmers. After vigorous forced swini lessons every day for five days, it was found that 30 fish out of 36 were good/ swimmers.

Liberal women to debate policy A policy conference of Liberal women will be held in Vancouver July 12 and 13, just ahead of the Liberal Party's western policy conference, which is scheduled, for July 13 to 15.

The women's conference, which is being organized by the British Columbia Women's Liberal Association, is expected to attract more than 100 delegates from the four western provinces. JUVENILE CRIME STUDY Solicitor General Warren All mand launched a national study on the prevention of crime among youth. Six researchers will document what services now exist to divert young people from crime. (By a Practicing Lawyer Copyright) Numerous husbands have written in wanting to know if they can prevent their wives running up bills in the husband's name, by advertising in a local newspaper. In theory the desired end could be accomplished in th4s manner but certain practical difficulties arise. It would be necessary to prove that the store received1 such a notice. In a large city, it would be impractical to give every store a notice cutting off a wife's credit. This could be done by advertising in a circular subscribed to by most retailers and published by a credit investigating company, but again the problem of proof arises. It is a husband's responsibility to support his wife for the necessities of life. This means a reasonable quantity of food, clothing, shelter, etc. according to his standard of living. She may pledge his credit for necessities which fail within the domestic department usually confided to the care and management of the wife. A tradesman could not generally sue a husband for lux- . uries or extravagant items bought by the wife. The tradesman would be left with the unsatisfactory remedy of suing the wife only. The husband escapes liability also if he can prove that his wife was already supplied with necessities or with an allowance to purchase them or that he expressly forbad her to pledge his credit. These principles of law apply also to the relationship of a man and woman living together though unmarried!: Each case is, however, decided on its merits and a lawyer should be consulted for specific problems. Recreational grants outlined Guidelines for processing applications for grants under the Community Recreational Facilities Fund Act and the naming of an advisory committee to review the applications are announced by the Hon. Jack Radford, minister of recreation and conservation. Purpose of the act^ passed at the spring session of the legislature, is to establish a fund, set at $10 million in the current fiscal year, to allow grants, not exceeding one-third of a million dollars each, of one-third of the cost of community recreational facilities sponsored by a municipality or a non-profit cultural, ethnic or religious group. The nine-point guidelines put an emphasis on local participation in planning, administration and use of recreational facilities receiving assistance under the act. . Mr. Radford said there would be four deadlines each year for applications \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD on the first days of October, January, April and July. Announcement of grant requests will be made one month after each deadline, he said. Announcements of the first grants will be made August 1.

Homemakers look for help The interest of the Sunshine COast in establishing a Home- maker's Service was discussed at a meeting in the Health Unit on Thursday, June 28. A recent survey revealed a solid need! for Homemakers.

Therefore, interested persons are encouraged to contact one of the following before July 13: Judy Friesen or Ernie Wong at 885-9422. Nina Davediuk or Pat Bawtinheimer at 886-2228; or Connie Westell at 886-2554.

Also a very special THANKS to all our volunteer firemen from Port Mellon, Gibsons, Roberts Creek and Sechelt. 1^ From Gibsons Mayor & Aldermfh for all those who worked so hard and were so wonderful in helping us save what we could of our Secondary School and the surrounding buildings. This was indeed a disaster and a blow to the whole community. There was certainly no lack of did from all the surrounding fire departments and we wholeheartedly thank them and all those wha participated. Sechelt Village has offered any aid thai they can give and Gibsons offers the use of our former village office for temporary quarters or\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD aid in whatever other manner we can give. I know it will be a hardship this winter for parents and students but I feel sure with us all working together that we can come up with something, whether it be swing shift, portable units or whatever may be necessary. The first thing I think we must do is to order new desks for the students so that we will have seats for them this fall. I am sure, we will find some place to put them. ._>.'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD l"@en .
