Taylor Ousts Murphy Matsqui District Not Interested Big School Referendum Passed The final vote in Matiqui which was not tallyed until about 5:30 Sunday morning, saw challenger Doug'Taylor of Mt, Lehman beat incumbent Matsqui Reeve "Spud" Murphy .with a lead of only 20 votes. Former Councillor Doug Taylor was favored by 1632 voters, while Murphy received 1612 votes of confidence. The District of Matsqui turned down the proposed MSA Community Centre, thus killing the project which had a few hours earlier been approved by the f resident electors of Abbotlford i Village and Sumas Municipality, The $755,000 Community Centre by-law required the acceptance of the voters In all three municipalities in order to receive legal stamp of approval. Leaders Divided on Amalgamation Decoration Contest Close The Langley School Referendum #11 was passed with well over the 60 per cent of the required affirmative vote. The $2,630, 000 by-law was approved by 1406 "yes" votes, while 935 electors were opposed to the expenditure. The carrying of this plebiscite, however, Superintendent Harold Stafford of School District #34 (Langley) points out, does not mean that the $2,630,000 will necessarily be spent by the school district. It only gives the voters approval to the possible borrowing of an amount necessary at any time within the next three years to facilitate school growth, not exceeding this limit, but at any ti me subject to the approval of the Provincial Dept. of Education who pays 75 per cent of the amount. The smaller Kindergarten Referendum #12 was rejected by the voters of Langley District, as it only obtained a 53 per cent of the "yes" vote. 1234 voted for and 1081 against this $200,000 referendum. In other districts on the Lower Mainland similar proposed bylaws were carried. Douglas Taylor new reeve., John "Spud" Murphy close contest Municipal leaders are divided on the issue of amalgamating the municipalities of Matsqui and Sumas with the village of Abbotsford. Sumas Reeve Kenneth Thompson told an all-candidates meeting preceeding the Saturday election that his council is opposed to the merger. Thomson said the newly formed regional district provides the necessary tool for joint municipal ventures. Kenneth shore, re-elected chairman by acclamation of the Abbotsford Village commission, said he favored extention of the village to take in all urban areas in the adjoining districts. He is opposed to a union of the urban and rural areas. Matsqui Reeve J. A. Murphy, defeated by Doug Taylor in a close race in Saturday's election, said he was 100 percent for amalgamation. He stated that by the turn of the next century the Lower Mainland will have a population of almost five million. Murphy anticipated an "impossible mess" if the region was to be administered by the present 28 municipalities and four region al districts. He said amalgamation was essential to avoid this problem, on a step-by-step basis. Douglas Taylor of Mt.Lehman, said he favored amalgamation of the three municipalities, but only if they were divided into electoral seats or on the ward system.

Oester- reich, head of the New Life Benevolent Society, will be told by Langley City Council he will have to provide additional space around buildings being constructed by the society in Langley City to accomodate senior citizens. The change is being made so council may extend mercy if and when any grandparents ever need to care for children left without parental care. The larger size locations will satisfy by-law demands for additional space needed for family life, rather than requirements for pensioners only. More Room forMounties Langley City RCMP may be given more space next year. City Protection Chairman, Alderman Tony Slogar, says sergeant Gerry Griffin (officer in charge of the city detachment) has requested a one-storey, laminated extension, at a cost of approximately 10 thousand dollars. The 90 square foot addition would have a flat roof and a cement floor. City council has referred the matter for consideration as a capital project by the incoming council. Langley Creek Polluted Langley City plumbing Inspector John Strain says the Langley Creek is polluted and residents should be warned of the dangers of poison. Strain says he has seen children drink from the creek and he has seen picknickers wash their dishes in the stream, both apparently laboring under the false impression the water is clean. City council will erect signs saying, "Do Not Touch This Water."

The residents of this area get their domestic water from the Anderson Creek.

Councillor Art Wool- . ley commented that Langley ' municipality has several trailer' courts operating without any trouble. A letter from council will be sent to the pollution Control Board, directing the board's attention to the possibility of pollution of the Anderson Creek, and state council's concern that if the board approves there will be no future problems arising from water and sewage in the area. Reeve Poppy said that problems concerning the narrow winding road could be eliminated by a reduction in speed limit.

Burden says he realizes certain matters must be left to the discretion of council but urges establishment of a type of code all developers must adhere to when planning any new sub-divisions. Community Planning Discussed ._. ¥ I J WSk _\_\\\; ***& ___ ^**r A special meeting was held by Langley Municipal Council with Vic Parker, executive director of the Lower Mainland Regional Planning Board. Council had previously received a letter from Mr. Parker urging Langley municipality to adopt a community plan. At the meeting Mr, Parker pointed out that the regional plan is a basic concept for the entire region, and the specific planning within the municipalities is the responsibility of the locally e- lected council. - ••■ He went on to say that Langley should look forward to the time when the population of this area could be 240,000, -- and plan and methods of development policies. This requires the services of a qualified planner to advise and assist council when charting out future courses. Reeve Bill Poppy explained that this municipal council had decided not to adopt an overall community plan and zoning for the entire district, but has relied heavily on the Supervision Control By- Law and regularity by-laws concerning the use of land. The Reeve pointed out that this municipality has the 2oning bylaws in effect where urban communities are planned in the regional plan, and that these urban area for industrial development without necessarily adopting the entire land-use policy incorporated in the regional plan. Council members expressed a- greement with this approach to the planning for certain purposes. Mr, Parker reiterated that an overall community plan for the development of the entire municipality would still be a most S&ofiat'Rowkty' ttk&Ckkit&HM 17 Jewel Swiss Watches accordingly. In order to do this council has to give consideration twenty thousand people. __ to the adoption of different types The industrial area in the city of Langley and the adjacent part of the municipality was re- xviewed, and it was pointed out Siat the development in the icily of Langley should be encouraged to spread out into that apart of the municipality. This Cwas generally agreed upon. BMr. Parker warned council a- jMgainst industrial sprawl which gcould be just as bad as residential sprawl, and urged council jjto designate specific areas for ^industrial development and (apian the necessary services. It riwas pointed out to council that fthey could designate a specific useful instrument in determining where these specific areas should be located. He also pointed out that commercial and industrial use of land, when concentrated in certain areas, assist in paying! the basic cost of providing services and utilities, whereas if community plans would accomo- spread out over a large rural date a population of sixteen to a"*. they cannot assist in this $18.50 $25.00 $26.00 $25.00 Popular Pendant Watches $15^ OTTER NEWS by Mrs.H.E.Larson regard. Mr. Parker gave a short outline of the LMRPB planning service. Explaining that there have been more and more requests from municipalities for this service, and in order to provide the necessary staff and work the participating municipalities had to underwrite the cost. The cost for Langley municipality would be $7,000. Some of the members of council questioned this proposal and suggested that it might be a little premature, and perhaps the existing municipal planning service departments could continue to assist municipalities on a contracted basis. Another meeting will be held at a later date to discuss the subject further with Mr. Parker. Your Town and District!

Box __0, Aldergrove Phone 856-8303 EDITORIAL The Chinese Seat Now that the United Nations General Assembly is under way, inevitably the question of Chinese representation will be discussed. It is a hardy annual, and this year once again those nations that want the Peking regime seated will be disappointed. China's case is doomed even before it gets to the floor of the General Assembly for various reasons - - not the least, of course being the present chaos in the country. Even prime Minister Lester Pearson, who in the past has spoken of the importance of resolving the Chinese representation problem, has been mark' edly cool this year, because the Cultural Revolution has thrown the most populous land on earth into such turmoil. But basically this does not alter the very strong case China has in the eyes of international lawyers. Nobody would deny today that Peking has grave internal strife on its hands. Nobody would defend China's Red Guards as a well-meaning group of harmless youngsters. These factors, however, do not alter China's fundamental right to its seat on the Security Council, and to a place in the General Assembly. Both these places are today occupied by the government of Formosa which does not -- by any stretch of the imagination -- represent the people of Mainland China. Despite the political explosions that are rocking China, the Communist regime still has a large measure of control in most provinces. Peking continues to trade with many nations in the world. Peking's diplomats represent China in scores of capitals, Obviously, Peking should have a voice in the United Nations If that body Ls to earn its title as a world organization. Other states that have changed their governments, or that have been beset by political violence, have maintained their seats in New York. African states like the Congo, Nigeria, Ghana, Arab countries such as Algeria and Egypt, several Latin American countries all have had repeated internal strife -- including violent changes of government -- and none have been deprived of its UN seat. China may not be the peaceful, docile land that many might wish It to be. Nevertheless it exists, and must have a greater say in global councils, particularly as China today is the first Asian -- and the first have-not -- nation to acquire nuclear and thermonuclear weapons. Your Schools and You IQTestsMisused Recently the Vancouver School Board looked at a motion to discontinue the use of IQ tests in schools, except for diagnostic purposes. The motion was tabled for further study. The counselling psychologist for Langley School District 35, Colin Stewart, agrees with the idea that the use of IQ tests - scholastic aptitude tests - must be reconsidered. Speaking in an interview, Mr. Stewart said, "With respect to IQ tests as they are used now, I would agree that the Vancouver school boards decision is realistic, although it hasn't been the test itself that has been misused as much as it is the interpretation and use of scores of the IQ tests." He said that the original purpose of school IQ tests was to discover the seriously educationally handicapped youngster, and a mental measuring test was introduced to screen out the kind of child who, through serious physical handicaps or through serious environmental handicaps, was not developing Intellectually to a point where he or she could benefit from education in a classroom. Mr. Stewart said it was originally felt that perhaps all students could be graded on the basis of intellectual development. He added," I think if the tests were used for diagnostic purposes, if one looked at the patterns and developed remediation steps to correct weaknesses, then IQ tests could give valuable information. "But what has happened is that the IQ test has become a magic al number, and around it has been built up a variety of expectations: tlie tests have become labelling devices, and if a youngster is labelled as being limited in intelligence then the expectations for this particular youngster may be lowered." In the Langley School district, Mr. Stewart says more and more the scholastic aptitude test is being used as an indicator ofthedevelopment of a student. It is nor used as it was perhaps ten years ago - as a highly Important screening device - but instead it is used, along with reading and language achievement and actual achievement on the job, to evaluate the progress of a student. Mr. Stewart continued, "Research findings have tended to confirm the feeling that the scholastic aptitude test is a measure of environmental advantages, the so-called cultural advantages of a youngster before he starts school, more than It Is a measure of basic intelligence potential," Regarding the future of scholastic aptitude tests, Mr. Stewart said," I think the future of IQ tests will probably be related to the development of a more diagnostic kind of test, with an emphasis on using this from the point of view of look* ing at what is happening now, and thinking about why it happened, rather than using it as a predictor of future development. " He continued,"If it is used in this way - as a diagnostic instrument - so that specific learning deficiencies and excellencies can be noticed, and from there educational programs and teaching techniques built around the specific areas that have been shown in the diagnostic patterns, then I feel lt would be a very useful kind of Instrument." Show me tho way to go home A directive from Attorney General Robert Bonner will receive a prompt objection from Langley City council. The directive states that in future drunk pedestrians are not to be charged. They are to be taken home or put in the hoose- gow overnight and then sent _home. The change for Langley City involves a loss of two thousand dollars a year. Alderman Reg Easlngwood says since the offenders cost the city money for guards and meals there should be some way in which they can be charged and fined. The new ruling, tried in two B. C. municipalities so far, Is to be province-wide. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Wasted Energy Hi! all you armchair statesmen, Wherefore the big debate? You should be in the seats of power Guiding our "Ship of State." Why don't you go to Ottawa and change the B. N. A. act? Forsurelyyou'vemore wisdom Than those we've sent in fact, Such vision! Such profundity! Is wasted every season On us poor goofs In Aldergrove Who don't know rhyme from reason!

No Socialist Mr. Editor, Sir, I would appreciate it If you could find space for a few last words from me to Mr. McNeil: Dear Sir, 1 feel sorry for you because you have fought a gallant fight for your beliefs and apparently no one even cared to come to YOUR assistance. However, I can tell you that although no Conservative, I am no more a Socialist than you, sir. And I wasn't attacking you on left-right political issues either, other than attempting to open your eyes as to the fallacies in your rigorls- tic Monarchy versus Republic statements. To your list of successful democratic republics, please ad Finland, Iceland, Ireland, West Germany, Austria, Italy and Mexico, just to name a few. And just like Japan, I think Germany and Italy are more democratic today than they were when they had a Kaiser and King who didn't (or couldn't) prevent a take-over by extreme right-wing forces. Don't you agree? A merry Christmas to you, sir, and may you, as time goes by learn to become less hasty in passing judgment. Your "liberal-republican" friend, Jacob Mondrath, Chllliwack, Canada doing fine Editor, The Star, It is good to see a Canadian, Jim McNeil, with enough courage to defend our system of government -- the Constitutional Monarchy. Five republicans have tried in your last few editions to convince this area that Canada needs a republic. It took only one Canadian to prove that these republicans are not thinking of the Canadian people but of their own selfish governmental and political interests. Canada is doing fine and any true Canadian is proud to see his nation flourishing under its superior, democratic form of government. Linda Davis. Mr. and Mrs. H. E.

I like it here in Canada, it's a country where a person can get things off his mind. When John was on his way through the wall he got rid of the cement and chalk scrapings by pocketing them and handing them to Art, I'm not sure whether Art used the stuff for making our heads but he had some way of getting rid of it. There were other ways but Art's way was the safest. Art deserves to be mentioned many times. Without his help we could not have camouflaged our escape so well, if £*>___ Break From the Rock Chapter Four by Frank Morris Copyright 1967 by the Central Fraser Valley Star, Aldergrove, B.C. - Edition Copyright 1967 by Rudy Langmann. All Rights Reserved. The registers are made of a heavier material than you find in homes and they are built intc the wall In such a way that they cannot be removed unless the wall around them Is removed first. If we wanted to make use of the ventilation ducts to escape. the only way would be to work the registers loose first. The duct, which ran behind our cells, was large enough to make a fast get-away possible. We knew that this duct ended up at the roof. The vertical part may pose a problem .however. There could be unknown obstructions such as grates, plumbing pipes or even alarm systems but we would find out. John volunteered to find out. He was the slimmest of the three of us and would have the least trouble getting in and out of his cell, after he managed to get the register loose. He went to work, keeping us up to date on the progress he made and giving us pointers for later. Not having better tools to work with he used ordinary spoons. At times the spoons wore faster than the wall but he made it. Clarence helped him by keeping watch. When John was scraping away at every opportune moment, Clarence would stand at his cell door listening and warning John if a guard got too close for safety. In an emergency John would jump on his bunk and pretend he was sleeping until it was safe to start working again on the register. John and Clarence were not together in one cell but, by the streak of luck, or by the grace of Warden Blackwell, their cells were next to each other. John and Clarence were brothers, not considered too bad. The only reason they ended up in Alcatraz Ls that the pens in Florida and Kansas just weren't able to keep them off the sheet. The LouLsianna and I a few more eastern pens had the same trouble with Frank who was put on the Rock about a year before Clarence arrived. Frank had been on the Rock longer than ihe other two, he knew more about the do's and don'ts. He often annoyed the other two by coming up witli the damnedest details. As time progressed and near- ed zero hour we took Frank more and more seriously, for our own good. It was him who came up with the idea that we would have several extra hours to reach safety if our escape was not noticed until breakfast. We agreed but had no solution to offer. Frank did. It will be necessary to leave certain details of our plan out of my story to protect someone. One detail, however, I cannot omit because it is so important. I also want to pay ttlbute to "Art", short for artist. He helped to make Frank's plan possible. Art stands for artist and artist he was. Frank wanted each of us to have a duplicate of himself, not necessarily the whole body, but we must have an extra head, 3G zero hour was set for June 12th -00.30. We would leave our cells but the checking guard would not miss us when shining his flashlight around at the regular hours. He should not find our bunks empty. The answer was to make heads from any available material, adding a body would be done by rolling up some blankets, make them look like us, put them on our pillows when our own heads were expected to be there. With Art's help (there may have been more than one Art) we came up with replicas that made us feel like very important people. Important enough to have their heads sculptured while alive, John had almost scraped his way through the wall and around the register when his head was ready, he would need it first. As we came closer to zero hour, more inmat es found out about our plan. To make sure ttie squealers would miss the boat we talked about the end of July as the possible time of our escape. Even Art didn't know any better. While Clarence's and my head were under "construction", John's was tested. It worked. The checking guard noticed nothing unusual when the real John was not in his cell but down the duct. An unexpected problem came up. John had no trouble getting through the hole after the register was removed. While in the large duct behind his cell Mrs, Eric Flowerdew shows the Girl Guides the first flag from tlie 1st Oner Troup. The flag was sent from the old country by her uncle, a furrier, who looked up the authentic colors of the Canadian otter, before producing the flag, -Star Plirto- he wanted to put the register back in the opening. This was easily done from inside the cell but proved impossible from the duct. Frank knew the answer. Art was asked to make a cardboard model of the front part of tlie register. Make It look like it. It was not hard to close the opening with the cardboard when John was inside the large duct. There may have been a dozen checks by different guards while John was working for the best way out of the building. As far as they were concerned, he was sound asleep. Art had done a fine job. There were no obstacles between our cells and the roof except the vent on top of it. This vent was well built but John inspected it thoroughly after climbing at least 25 feet up a pipe inside the vertical duct. That pipe was a lucky break. John felt it would not be too hard to pry the bars of the vent loose and make an opening large enough to get us on the roof. When all three of us were ready to go we would take something along to help us in getting the bars apart, "Even a stick of wood would do," John said. Our hopes were high. John's head went back to Art's shop to join Frank's and mine. If I ever was to go behind bars again, Alcatraz would be my choice. In spite of the place being impossible to escape from without outside help, It was not a bad place to be, considering. The guards were of a different class than their contemporaries back east. The food was far better than what Maxy and I have had to put up with since I left the Rock. Honestly, the only thing wrong with Alcatraz Is the water around it. Security was slacker than in places where water did not provide natural security. Some inmates wanted to drink Warden Blackwell"s blood. I never did, neither did Clarenct or Frank. He did us a favor by being away from tlie Rock when we took off, so we just couldn't bear any malice towards him. While on the Rock, he and his boys were bastards to us, but I can now see that he was doing his job quite well. He had to cut his fishing trip short on our behalf. He might not have liked that. It made no difference whether he came back or not, I was safe in Gino's sister's house in Oakland, out of reach of his long nose, his you think that Art was an inmate, one of us three or someone else, you are probably right. Maxy feels that Art should be described in this way because he deserves to be recognized. He followed Frank's directions right to the letter. It took John over three weeks to get the register out of tlie wall. Art supplied him with paper to fill in where cement had been taken out. John's register stayed in place until zero hour. Frank and I had nearly five weeks to complete our job. Art made two more cardboard registers, we were ready to go on Sunday morning. June 3rd, ten days ahead of schedule, To be Continued... I wish to thank all the voters who supported me in last Saturday's Election. I hope I will merit your confidence. Ralph Barichello Report from Ottawa Quit Smoking-Drinking THANK YOU For your Trust in mo Complements of the Season HENRY A.B0RG It Is some little time now since" the Finance Minister brought down his Budget message, but so far we still know only part of what Mr. Sharp plans. We know, in detail, as to the boost in income tax, and about the Increased levies on drinks and smokes. We know also that the Carter Commission, with it's proposals, has been given the cold-shoulder and that there is to be no real basic change in our tax policy at the Federal level. But much as we have learned as to the Government's intention to increase it's incomewe have not had spelled out what it proposes to do in that other area of which it has talked so much lately. We do not know in what places the "hundreds of millions" of dollars cuts in spending are going to be. What services, what Pension improvements, what public works are going to be discarded, or at least shelved? We still have not heard. One place where real reduction In Government spending could occur Is that of our Defence expenditures. These now take approximately ninety dollars per year from each man, woman and child in the country. We have spent, since the end of the last war, approximately 25 billion dollars on defence. Had we spent, say, 15 billion instead of 25, would we be any less de- fendable than now? Another point --- While the new 5% surtax on basic income taxes is put forward by Mr. Sharp as a means of controlling inflation in the country, it is quite argueable that, so far from restraining inflation, it may increase it --- by increasing the cost of living of the taxed family we may be adding to their need for increased earnings. perhaps the most significant feature of the government's policy is the apparent ditching of the multi-million dollar Report and Recommendations of the Carter Commission on Taxation ... recommendations which could have plugged loopholes by which tlie government loses at least $200 million in revenues. It seems sure there It to be no capital gains tax - - - one recom mendation by Carter which would bring in millions from an untoucl ed field. Finally --- to my smoking and drinking friends who are complaining about having to pay 2 or 3 cents a pack more for cigarettes and 10 percent more Federal tax on their liquor bottle — I can't say I have much sympathy for them or complaints as to what the government has done. In their case they do not need to pay the increased tax. For instance --- if the pack-a-day smoker will give up just one cigarette a day he will beat Mr. Sharp right out his intended new grab --- save his pocketbook and, Incidentally, improve his health. 24 Hour Towing no job too smalt or too bia EXPERT REPAIR and PARTS SERVICE on all tuakes of Cars and Trucks S. l%inutq,&SoHA Day.856 8721 ALDERGROVE Night 856 2140 nf ' '=J*,orr^<HlBW- -mm 1X>( Soccer Scores The strong Aldergrove Legion team In division 7. lost their first game in weeks, Saturday to Langley.

First stop in this film is Nova Scotia, and port Royal, where the first apple trees were planted in 1610. Viewers will also see a modem apple-growing operation owned by HilllsShaw. Quebec, where Canadian agriculture first began, is the next stop. Film shows the farm of Louis He'bert, the first European to make his living from farming In Canada, Hubert's farm site is now the heart of Old Quebec City. His land grant ran nine miles In from the St. Lawrence River and a part of the original parcel is still farmed today. Near Montreal, the program visits the modem dairy farm of Rene1 Dubuc and his sons, and then on to lie d'Orle'ans, where little has changed over the generations. Their Roots Are Deep also takes viewers to MacDonald College near Montreal, where today's farmers are keeping abreast of new techniques, even tothe extent of using computers. Other examples of progress are a hog farm at Brantford, Ont., where the farmer feeds his stock like a gas jockey pumping fuel into cars; and a hog marketing operation in which farmers offer and sell hogs through an electronic centre In Toronto to potential buyers. The film tells about the Pennsylvania Germans (Mennonites), who were the iron in the backbone of early agricultural Ontario, olden times in the Marl- times, the United Empire Loyalists, and family and farming traditions.

On the Prairies, the program shows a modern poultry farm at steinbach, Manitoba; early methods of irrigation in the eastern irrigation district of Alberta; the Copithorne Ranch near Calgary; and visits Morley, Alberta, where the Canadian beef industry had its beginnings. In British Columbia, viewers will meet the Parke family of the famous Bonaparte Ranch near Cache Creek in the Cariboo. Since 1861, when the ranch was started by a 20-year-old Irish lad named Phillipe Parke, the Bonaparte brand has been put on thousands of cattle and successive generations of parkes have made their mark. Irrom B.C,, the program swings on up to the Peace River Country for a visit with John Doel, his wife and five children. The Doels are modern-day pioneers who left their cosy Saskatoon home a few years ago and took up fanning in the Blueberry River area near lort St John. Their Roots Are Deep wasmade with the cooperation of the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon, Heritage Park and the Gienbow Foundation in Calgary, Black Creek Pioneer Village, Toronto. Ont, Port Royal Historic National Park in Nova Scotia, and the National Museum in Ottawa, as well as a great many people across Canada who were part of the film itself. The special was photographed by Bob Reid and edited by fred Engel. Original music composed and conducted by Bobby Hales. Park Attendance Sets All Time High The private Centennial project of a lot of people this year must have been a visit to one or more of British Columbia's far-flung provincial parks. More than six million visits were recorded which represented an 18 percent increase over I9G6, the previous record year. Good weather in the spring, a generally warm, dry summer and late fall coupled with many travellers passing through British Columbia on their way to Expo and those vacationers who wanted a chance to spend some time in natural surroundings all contributed to tlie tremendous number of visits. The increase was spread quite evenly throughout the province Thank You Owner-Electors It is with happy appreciation that our thanks are extended to all owner-electors who cast "Yes" votes for Referendum 11 and Referendum 12. It is regrettable that the voice of the majority of ratepayers has been ineffective in making provision for kindergartens for all children in the school district. Special words of appreciation are extended to all people and organizations that worked to explain the two referenda and to help voters to the polls. Commendation is given to the parent-Teacher Association, the Junior Chamber of Commerce, CJJC, the Langley Advance and the Central Fraser Valley Star. Board of School Trustees School District No. 35 (Ungley) SARATOGA MOLDED SALAD Saratoga Salad - Serve it molded or not It's Not Funny ! Children and young people are wilfully destroying school property. Destruction of glass and its replacement has cost hundreds of dollars this year. This destruction has to be paid for by the ratepayers in Langley. Every cent so expended is a waste of public funds. It should be the duty of every citizen who witnesses any incident of destruction of school property to report it immediately to the police or school authorities. $100.00 is being offered by the School Board for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any one who destroys or damages school property. Board of School Trustees School District No. 35 (Ungley) Recipes are funny things. They can take so many different paths from the same beginning, they are rather like children in the same family who "branch out" from the family tree in many varied directions. Here is a recipe which, in the finished product, becomes two quite different kinds of salad. Both are good. But each is different. Basically, each salad contains grated carrots, diced apples and raisins. But one is placed in a mousse-like meld of orangi flavored gelatin and salad dressing while the other is a pleasant tossed salad. We've christened this salad, both versions of it, "Saratoga Salad", in honor of the race course by the same namewhere we understand, unexpected happenings sometimes too, occur. NDP Meet ing Nordin Wins Wife's Prize December 1st was the date of the Aldergrove NDP Clubs gathering at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. Nordin, when three newcomers to the district were welcomed. Minutes of October were read followed by the financial report. Both were approved and passed. Mrs. Nordin gave a short resume of the meeting of the executive held in Coquitlam the evening previous. New officers had been chosen and were ready to take over work at the beginning of the new year. X-mas donations were taken care of, and a gift acknowledged. The draw of the evening was won by Mr. Nordin, the lucky winner of a prize donated by his wife. Everything remained in the family. Lunch was served at the close of the evening. Chief Executive Officer School District no.35 (Langley) Old patterns for administration give way to new in school operation as they do in the business world. However, from time to time inquiries are made about a particular leadership position in the school district. It seems desirable that those people not acquainted with a position which has been filled for a number of years be given some details of this office, AU District Superintendents in British Columbia are employed solely by the Government for the province in the Department of Education, Their general and specific duties are clearly set out in the public Schools Act and the Regulations of the Council of Public Instruction. In general it is noted that the District Superintendent shall: advance and endeavour to maintain standards of tuition and instruction within the public schools by advising and instructing teachers and principals in all that may tend to promote the efficiency and effectiveness of their school; and shall: exercise supervisory authority In all matters relating to school organization, instruction, counselling services and discipline and shall encourage the raising of the level of pupil achievement and advancement of public education. Each District superintendent of Schools is responsible for the supervision of the instructional programmes within his super- intendency and is responsible to the Superintendent of Education for the attainment of the standard of public education required by the Superintendent of Education. In all school districts In British Columbia the District superintendent is an executive officer of the school board, and assigned duties by the school board. In return for this professional service the school board pays the Department of Education an annual administrative allowance as approved by the Lieutenant-Governor in Council. The scale of allowances is based upon the number of pupils attending school in the school district. All school districts have a number of senior employees engaged in executive capacities with respect to education, business, school maintenance, bus operation, etc. Schooling and instruction is the purpose for which the school district was set up by the Department of Education, It is to this end that trustees are elected, that buildings are constructed, equipped and maintained, and that many people are employed. Responsibility for the co-ordination and general management of the day to day operation of the affairs of many school boards have been placed on the senior professional teacher and administrator in the school district. In Ungley this function has been assigned by the school board to the District Superintendent of Schools as its Chief Executive Officer and his duties are set forth as follows: In die administration of affairs of the School District, within the jurisdiction of the Board of School Trustees, the Chief Executive Officer shall be directly responsible to the Board of School Trustees and shall 1) attend, if it is feasible to do so, all meetings of standing or special committees of the Board of School Trustees. 2) carry out the policies and regulations of the Board of School Trustees. 3) be responsible to the Board of School Trustees for the organization, direction, and efficient operation of all services and departments needed in the conduct of Board affairs, 4) recommend to the Board of School Trustees all appointments, promotions, suspensions, dismissals and retirements of Board employees. 5) appoint the necessary temporary staff for the operation of the Departments of the Board, and the required substitute or temporary teaching staff for the schools In the School District. Board of School Trustees School District No. 35, (Ungley) Centre for four areas with day use showing the most pronounced upward trend. Day visits were up by 750,000, an increase of over 21 percent from 1966. Campers on the other hand increased by only 15 percent over 1966, The extreme forest fire hazard in the late summer which made restrictions on camping necessary in some parks is considered partly responsible for the somewhat lower increase of overnight visitors. The establishment of several new parks this year and the continued programme of campground and general park development has helped provide more and better recreational facilities for the ever-Increasing numbers of park visitors. Langley City parks Chairman, Alderman John McDougall,has made four recommendations to council for consideration in 1968. He says the parks Board will need an extra $2,350 next year, bringing the budget to $14, 000. McDougall also says his committee would like to have a sinking fund established with the city, setting aside $10. 000 annually for expansion. The committee further recommends Ungley Municipality, Cloverdale and Clayton, be asked to join the city in planning and constructing a community centre that could be used by residents of all four areas. Finally, the parks chairman advocated a regional parks district to Include the city and district of Ungley and the eastern part of Surrey.
