Changes Proposed For Langley Walk The June 18th meeting of the • Langley Recreation Commission will consider several proposed changes for next year's eighth annual Langley Walk. Chairman Bob Harraver reveals that James Whiteside, speaking for elementary schools, says lengthening tiie route to20miles this year appeared to reduce tiie pleasure of the walk, and he suggests cutting it to 15 miles. Another recommendation would, if approved, permit participants to obtain sponsors who would contribute money for each mile walked by contestants. Previously, the walk has been staged for recreational purposes only and no money has been involved. ' School Board Honors Long Time Employees Langley school board has honored a dozen employees with a total of more than 300 years of service. Saying farewell, after close to a quarter century, is superintendent ofschools Harold Stafford, who now leaves en a one year journey to points from Alaska to the North-Western United States in his capacity as a district governor of Rotary International. Three teachers, with a combined total of 136 years have received retirement gifts. They are Dorothy Peacock, Hilda Jude, both of Aldergrove Senior Secondary, and Mrs. Dorothy Moss. Also retiring, after many years of service, are teachers Lorna Schreiber, Mis. Margaret Green, "and Mb. Ethel■^t/eWBtt..-7'-7*<»'- Retiring from the non-teaching staff are custodian James Mc Cain and bus driver Duncan Mc Laren. 20-year certificates have been awarded to teachers Isaac Braun, Mrs. Dave Connolly, and library vandriverKeith Todd. 4 Persons In Hospital After Two Accidents Two single car accidents in the Langley area oyer the weekend sent four persons to hospital. A car driven by Stewart Evans of 3583 Mt. Lehman Road ran off the Fraser Highway near the Old Yale Road as he attempted to pass another car. Evans had his leg broken, and his wife received cuts and bruises in the mishap that saw their car land on its side in the ditch. Earlier the same afternoon, a station wagon driven by 21-year old Gary Gross of 2939 - 208th Street, Langley, received $800 in damage when it landed upside down in a ditch on 66th Avenue. A passenger in the Gross car, Grace Williams, of 20253-72nd Avenue, Langley, was kept in Langley Memorial Hospital for observation. The vehicle went out of control after the driver was stung by a bee. Okay To Sleep On This Job Nineteen-year-old Kevin Wright en Ottawa university student has the softest summer job in Canada.

Phone 856-8303 What They Really Are If we are realistic about our expenditures on national defence — $1,753,500 In 1968 -- we'll consider them unemployment relief under another name. As actual defenders against invasion, our armed forces -- mostly trained for the last war or the one before it -- cannot be taken seriously. Canada's defence in truth has always rested on some oth er nation. For long yean that nation was Britain. Now, insofar as defence in nuclear or germicidal war is possible, it is the United States. Except for small contingents for peacekeeping forces in world trouble spots we have precious little logical use for our armed services as such. In the cold light of reason our only justification for maintaining a defence establishment is fear that if it were disbanded, most of tiiose in uniform plus substantial numbers in ancillary industries would be thrown out of work and need to be supported in some less prestigious and glamorous form of unemployment relief. Surely we need not accept the despairing thesis that our economy would fall into chaos if not propped up by military expenditures. If productive private enterprise could not absorb the Work force released by a phasing out of national defence, then a long list of public projects are crying aloud for attention. A construction program to rescue millions of Canadians from the misery of sub-standard housing, the works required for water pollution abatment, the establishment of a national electrical grid fed by power sources from the tides of Fundy to the glacial rivers of B. C., the ordered development of the Canadian North as the USSR is developing Siberia -- these only begin the list of thtags crying to be done while we tie up the men, materials and^^ney to do them in the uniforms and implements of destruction. -United Church News LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, Regarding your "sane" defence of the recent Rock Festival, I should like to point out that the objectionable features were not confined to the park area. With not enough toilets provided, the "flower children" (well, after all a skunk cabbage is a flower, no?) used tiie bush areas around their parking places. I live near ly a mile from the park, but I cleaned up two nauseating horrible messes of excretia from my hedges. And how much mere undetected filth may be, 1 leave to your imagination. What with cars trying to sneak a parking place on one's lawn and that ear-shattering, sleep-destroying sound called "music"? going on the entire night, we lost tiiree nights' sleep, and no wonder we were short with would be parking seekers. If "sanity" is the word for your stand, Mr. Editor, then I must be insane. If there is another "Rock" affair, you are cordially invited to come along and clean up my hedges and boulevards forme. Yours truly, (Mrs.) Elizabeth Paterson, 27607 Huntingdon Rd., Aldergrove. Don't Turn Us Off Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, Did I do something wrong? I was one of the approximately 27,000 young people who visited Aldergrove Beach Rock Festi val. I didn't go to Aldergrove to smoke pot, drink beer, swim in the nude, or litter the grounds. I went to hear the music, enjoy the country air, and spread a little happiness and peace. Those of us (and I shirk no responsibility; they're my brothers too) who didn't fulfill our part ofthe contract should apologize, But please don't turn us all off. Yours truly, (Miss) Barbara A. Eddy, 1419 Pendrell, Vancouver. NEXT DEFENSIVE DRIVING COURSE July23,30 Aug.6,13 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION TELEPHONE ADULT EDUCATION OFFICE AT 534-3267 at deadline by Rudy Langmann Next week is the Aldergrove All-Nations days, and many long hours have been put into the organizing of this event by community-minded citizens. The weather forecast looks grand, and everything is go. We hope the All Nations week will be even better than the Centennial 1967 Aldergrove Days; certainly more different events have been planned. Arranged for the beginning of summer -- at the time of commencement of school holidays, it's bound to be a success which will be made an annual event in our community. Now is an excellent time for us all to get together and show other Fraser Valley communities that we know how to celebrate. At the same time we'll be practicing for B. C. 's next centennial - in 1971. There must be something serious ly wrong with my hearing. This I found out last week when I heard tiiat 38 residents of the Lower Mainland, living from Abbotsford to White Rock, had signed a petition protesting a- mong other things the noise from the Aldergrove Rock Festival. This petition, with copies to Langley and Matsqui councils, local MPs and MLAs, was sent to the regional parks board a few days ago. It also remonstrated against the commercial use of public parks, lack of adequate toilet facilities at Aldergrove Park, drinking and use of drugs, and the excessive policing during the three-day event last month. The noise bit I don't understand. I couldn't myself hear the music at the park entrance. Yet I realize that some people might have an extraordinary sense of hearing. But White Rock? As far as the next two points go Overlooked But -- they go together. It might be unfortunate that a monetary charge should be necessary at publicly owned parks, but acquit ing and improvement to these properties -- lamentable as this might be -- do take money. And the taxpayers never seem too happy when the mill rate is raised. I'm happy that the beautiful Aldergrove Lake has become a regional park, but the fact remains that it'll cost you -- as a family $25 to go swimming there through out the season (75 cents <® day) or $100 if you intend to go camping as well. I am therefore happy to see that the parks board netted $7,056 on the event (25 percent of the . gross take) and will be able to use this money towards further improvements to our park. And as far as tiie beer-drinking goes, I am not too shocked. You go to Stanley park or a game at Pacific Coliseum and you'll see the same (maybe even take part) any old time. Last Sunday I went to Birch Bay -- a short 20 miles away, and here it is quite all right — even en a Sunday -- to down the suds on the beach. And the policing? I've seen more cops at a Grey Cup festival in Vancouver or at the Cloverdale Rodeo. So what else is new? Some people, like Hans Christian Andersen pointed out, understand- how to make a chickenbam out of the down of a baby chick. » * * Somebody told me the other day: "I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but 1 am not sure you real ize that what you heard is not what I meant." « • * My wife claims she just turned . thirty.

Fanciful? No, it is the same arrangement that polices the purity of your rivers, claims Dr. Pat McGeer, provincial Liberal leader. Or can you picture a scientist in" the Arctic discovering lead "faUout" from auto fumes? It has happened, says McGeer. At Resolute Bay lead has increas ed 300 per cent in the last ten years. "These are just a few of the facts that have come before me In this series of articles, B. C. Liberal leader Pat McGeer explains what pollution is, what pollution exists in B. C., and seme of the methods which prevent pollution. Pat McGeer has a Ph. D. in chemistry from Princeton University and an M. D. from tiie UBC Medical School. He was director of the Kinsmen Laboratory of Neurological Research at UBC, doing brain research, until he resigned to become leader of the Liberal Party in B. C. in October, 1968. Hehas been an active MLA sincel962. In his first article he explains water pollution. Later articles deal with air and land pollution. • - as a scientist and as a political leader," McGeer says. "I would like to pass this information on to you in a series of articles since in the final analys is it is individuals who have the power to prevent the pollution of their province. "Various kinds of pollution threat en our health, our economy, our recreation activities and our beautiful land. "Water pollution is presently a danger throughout British Colum bia. Until the ealy 1950's the Coquitlam River supported large spawning concentrations of Pink and Chum salmon in the gravel beds of its lower reaches. But then gravel operators were permitted to harvest the gravel -- and soon a suffocating blanket of silt built up. "There are now no Pink salmon stock; whatever and so few Chum salmon as to be negligible. Salmon are also being killed by dumping of wastes which use up the dissolved oxygen fish need to live. The amount of wastes which take oxygen is measured by the BOD -- Biological Oxygen Demand. "Let me quote from a report by the Fisheries Research Board of Canada at Nanaimo: "The sulph ite pulp mill at Port Alice has continually given problems of low dissolved oxygen in the surface waters. There have been occasional fish kills reported, by the Fisheries Inspection Officer in the area and it is extremely surprising that any salmon can go upstream at all." "The problem is caused by excessive amounts of wood waste being dumped into the inlet, the report says. "The report also singles out mills in the Albemi Inlet and at Crof- ton as having caused pollution. Another Fisheries report states that Northwood Pulp in Prince George exceeded safe limits by two to three times for a period of over two years. .Since then Northwood has improved its performance. "There are two important points to consider: First, the policing and Closure threats seem to be carried out by the federal Fisheries Department, which is concerned only with damage to fish, not with other provincial implications. Second, measurements are usually done by the company's own technicians. "The Fisheries Department does not have enough staff to police all the pulp mills and other possible pollutors, and the provincial Pollution Control Board is in even worse shape. "An operator can easily provide favorable data by taking samples he knows are not bad. "It is a wonder that any unfavor able figures have appeared at all. But the pulp mills know they are safe from the provincial government. There has never been a prosecution case because of pollution in B. C. even though pulp mills have admitted violating provincial stan dards. "But pulp mills are not the only industrial offenders. Mines have dumped tailings into lakes and rivers and mining industries have caused other problems. In a 1966 report, the executive engineer of the Pollution Control Board said that the fertilizer plant at Kimberley was discharging about 1,100 tons of gypsum each day into Mark Creek which enters the St. Mary River. "He said this was "aesthetically displeasing to many of the local populace, particularly rod and gun fans, since fishing in this 20-mile stretch of the St. Mary River has had to be abandoned." I can imagine that the "populace" was "displeased] ".The gypsum was carried into tiie Kootenay River,x the report continued, where phosphate from it has caused increased algae in Kootenay Lake. "Algae increases in Skaha Lake, blamed on nutrient chemicals from sewage, temporarily threat ened the Okanagan's tourist trade. Moves have been made to correct the Mark Creek problem by Cominco. The most publicized type of water pollution is that caused by sewage. It is unpleasant and dangerous. The pollution Control Board has suggested standards for the lower Fraser River and the Greater Victoria-area, but the problem then becomes one of building sewers and treatment plants. "Let us first look at the sewage conditions and then discuss the building problems. In Victoria some sewer outfalls are above high tide line. As a result a number of beaches have been closed to swimming. --In Van couver, the north arm of tiie Fraser becomes increasingly polluted as it moves past raw sewage outfalls. "Vancouver is unique in tint many of its sewers are also storm drains, so tiiat during rain storms, raw sewage is carried out onto the beaches, through overflow channels and the Iona primary treatment plant is unable to do much with the sewage reaching it. "E-coli is the principal gut bacteria. Its presence as measured by the coliform count indicates the amount of human feces in tiie water. According to American Public Health standards, a s;«is: Lumber Yard With Drive-In Facilities Well-known sign of N. K. MacDonald Lumber yard points to new showroom and warehouse of old established firm on Fraser Highway in Aldergrove. good beach has a coliform count under 50, a doubtful beach a count under 300, a poor beach a count under 1,000 and a very poor beach anything above that. The Goldie report shows that during the summer of 1966, the median coliform counts above New Westminster were 750. This jumped to 4,300 by Lulu Island and 9,300 near the north arm's mouth where it flows past residential areas. And these are only median figures. A high of 110,000 was recorded at one point! "Most salt water beaches around Victoria and Vancouver average 200 to 400 during Slimmer month, but occasional counts can run as high as 10,000. "This is the problem. What is the solution? "Primary treatment plants are expensive to build, but cheap to operate — they are often automated and can be mn on gases, given off by decomposing sewage. But the financial burden of building sewers and treatment plants is placed squarely on the municipalities. "And many municipalities can not sell their bonds, even at 8-1/2 percent interest, because they are not guaranteed by the provincial government, as BC Hydro bonds are. "Municipal leaders recently reported over $80-million in municipal bonds unsold! Much of the money for sewers can come from federal loans, , but some of the money for treatment plants will probably have to come from provincial A large modem showroom and a unique drive-through warehouse now stand where the flames consumed the old McDonald lumber yard during the early morning, hours of December 30th, 1968. Mr. McDonald has now completed the rebuilding of his business and will be celebrating the opening on June 20th ud 21st. Customers, new and old, are invited to view the new showroom which covers an area of 4,000 sq. feet and displays a large varie ty in hardware, paints, panelling and tiles etc. The new warehouse directly behind the showroom is unique in design. For the convenience of patrons their vehicles can be driven right through the 48 feet by 266 feet building. Customers can thus have their cars or trucks loaded as they drive through the warehouse. All materials stored will be clearly priced; this includes cement, panelling, plywood, doors and mouldings etc. Further back on the lot a shed stores all siding, and on the lot there are approximately two acres of framing lumber. McDonald Lumber Co. stores up to one million feet of framing lumber. In addition to the already mentioned showroom and warehouse there is a track repair shopwhere the company's six trucks and two forklifts are serviced and kept in tip top working order. Everyone is welcome to come in this Friday or Saturday to look over the modem, light show rooms and have a cup of coffee and donuts. Many opening specials on plywood, doors and siding are offered during the grand opening days. Heartiest "The alternatives to action are grim. "Consider even one small example -- domestic sewage has already closed down 40 percent of the B. C. oyster industry at a loss of $4-million over the last 10 years. "How unhealthy are our waters?

Garden Notes Bedding Geraniums For Instant Gardening by A. R. Buckley Changes in the popularity of different flowers emerge periodically according to individual tastes, availability of new selec tions, and new trends in landscape design and maintenance. Twenty years ago the geranium or zonale pelargonium was quite commonplace. They were consistently used in park bedding schemes, for window boxes, and in many comers of the garden. As labor costs increased bedding schemes involving the carryover of plants inside through the winters, and tiiose that required more maintenance became impractical, and soon geraniums, which were in this group, were less conspicious in public places and the demand for them from home owners diminished. Nowadays there are a large num ber of newer kinds available in different colors and with tiie popularity of patios and containers, many more places in which to grow them. Furthermore, tiie mass production by specialists of cultured cuttings has greatly reduced disease problems and the necessity of carrying plants through the winter; thus the showy geranium has once more come into its own in public parks and home gardens. If you aren't aware of the diversity of color and form found in the newer types of geraniums, then investigate the possibility of using some in your summer bedding schemes, for they are among the most distinguished and perpetual flowering of all your garden plants. -> Most florists and garden centers carry bedding geraniums. If you have a choice, choose your varieties from the 'First Lady' series Mamie, an excellent red; Eleanor, deep salmon; Bess, begonia rose double, and Jacqueline, signal red double, are the most outstanding. Another series of great beauty is the Irene series, containing about fifteen different kinds. Penny Irene, double rosy- pink, and dark red Irene, bright jeep red flowers, are two of tiie best. Others of merit are Snow ball, white; Cardinal, signal red with large flat florets; Pink Jade, a dew orchid pink;Orange Glow, orange, scarlet, Galaxie, dark crimson and finally the showy Mme. Langguth, with variegated green and white leaves and brick-red single flowers. You can select the color you prefer from the local outlets, for most plants wUl have at least one flower on them when you buy. The cultural requirements of these plants are simple. Older varieties appear to grow better when they are shaded from the mid-day sun or are in part shade most of tiie day; they blossom better in full sun, but their leaves are yellowish and not attractive and the blooms are not as large. The newer varieties mentioned above, however, have been bred with the sunny garden in mind, and most of them will grow better in full, sunlight. In general they require a nice light loamy well-drained soil. If your soil is heavy add peat moss or perlite to make it more friable and to provide improved drainage. Geraniums look well standing in their own glory or associated with annuals to enhance their brilliant coloring. For .example, a bed of pink or red kinds, edged with alyssum can be very effective. Pink geraniums edged with light blue ageratum, or red geraniums edged with dark blue lobelia, are two other attractive color combinations. Patios really clamor for the flamboyant geraniums. Plant them In tubs or decorated pails or in special geometrical beds in the patio floor. Use these plants sparingly in borders as they tend to dominate the whole garden. Whenever they are planted, they require a background of grey or green to present their best appearance. This may be provided if not already existing, by fast-growing foliage annuals such as the castor oil bean (Ricinus), or tiie burning bush (Kochia). All summer the geraniums must be kept well watered and tiie old faded flowers removed. If they become top heavy, pinch them back and they will branch out at the base. If you insist on saving your own plants, take cuttings from the newly formed shoots in September,, before frosts occur, and insert them in sand. Keep these growing in the windows during winter and propagate further in March for tiie summer display. You will probably find that the plants will become leggy dur ing winter and constant vigil is necessary to prevent mildew and decay; however, if you have patience you can bring them through. Failing this, you can be sure that by next May, vigor ous plants will once more be available from the nurseryman and florist at a price which will -more than compensate for the extra trouble you would spend growing the plants all winter. Fort Langley News 21 Fort Cubs On Camping Trips Sunday, May 18th, tiie first group of the six youngest boys ofthe Fort Langley cub pack left around 9.30 a. m. and travelled first to Femdale, Wash, where they visited Bill Nicholson, cub master of pack no. 26. At noon they continued on to catch the ferry to Lummi Island. Lunch was eaten at the beach on the north west coast of the island and the rest of the afternoon, until about 4:30 was spent in learning about the beach, tides, boats, crabs and other little boy interests. Later on the group moved to the southeast comer of the island for supper at a private lake up the mountain. The night was spent in this area, camping in a camper truck. After breakfast the following morning the sea was found again, but a rocky section with star fish, large crabs and a chance to fish. After ahotdog lunch the group returned to the lake and swam here in the afternoon until 3:30 p.m. The return trip to the mainland was made with the 4 p.m. ferry and the party returned home by 5 o'clock On Friday, May 23rd, five boys . were picked up from school and taken across the border, at Aldergrove to Bellingham, Whidbey Island and Coupeville for supper. Then across the inlet with the ferry to port Townsend, and a dessert of pie and milk. The trip continued to port Angeles and Crescent Lake to camp at Fairholm that night. Next morning the party continued to Hoh Rain Forest, and lunch was had after viewing these interesting areas. Then further down to Ruby Beach on the pacific Coast for swimming. In the late afternoon the group came back to near Fairholm and from there 12 miles up to Sol Due Hot Springs. After supper, a sing song and to bed. Sunday morning the boys swam in the hot springs for two hours, after lunch a further swim, and then back to port Townsend for the 4 p.m. ferry. The boys had supper ar Coupeville and were home by 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 28th, the five oldest boys left school at noon and travelled down to .Seattle and Fort Lewis by 3 p. m., having had lunch on the way and changed into uniform. They visited some parts of the camp and then had supper. After a- bout an hour's swim they attended the Court of Honor parade of the local groups 162, 163 and 62. About midway in the program Fort Langley demonstrated the Grand Howl. The night was spent at the Youth Activities Summer Camp on American Lake. Thursday morning, they were shown over and inside tanks and other tracked vehicles.

Chairman The STAR, Wed.,June 18,1969 Jubilee Community Club Parliament Adjourn June27 Els-t$ New^Offficers Parliament last week began to clean up a number of legislative items returning from committee study for final debate. It was also decided to sit overtime hours for the next two weeks in order to adjourn on June 27. The next session will probably begin in early October. INCOME TAX AMENDMENT The NDP amendment to provide income tax relief for single people earning less than $2,000 and married couples under $4,000-was supported by the Conservative and Creditiste parties. All Liberals voted against this motion so we'll have to wait until next fall for another try at persuading the government to raise the archaic exemp tions. Did you know that some senior citizens whose only income is derived from old-age security plus the supplement must pay income tax on this pittance? WHAT'S TELESAT? At the cost of $60-70-million, Canada is soon to have a brand new communications satellite. The glamorous space age experiment is intended to blanket the Canadian north with TV and telephone service, areas currently inadequately served by our ■ present micro I wave systems. J.The develop- |:ment-of the | satellite (to j be launched | in the U.S.) I is supposed to j provide stimu- ! lation to Cana \ dian space science and will be built largely by RCA of Montreal (US owned) and Northern Electric (Bell Tele phone). Mr. Kierans has said that the project has to be justified on "social and cultural" grounds rather than economic ones. In view of this, it is difficult to understand why such a powerful and influential medium for shaping public opinion -- beaming information into virtually every Canadian home -- should be left two- thirds in private hands. The ownership structure for Telesat envisions a one-third government share, one-third to the telecommunications companies and the remainder to be sold on the market to the general public. It is my view mat the powerful by Mark Rose, MP telecommunications companies will gobble up most of the public shares too and there will be little left for retired school teachers to buy. This important innovation must be controlled by the public ownership to at least 51 percent. ANY ROOM FOR A HOMELESS ELK? Many people have been unsettled by the Roberts Bank rail route through the lower Fraser Valley, especially those residents of Matsqui, Langley and Surrey along whose properties the coal trains will mn. Last Friday the Commons passed a bill (S-31) which will allow the CPR to build an access line to the coal fields running from Sparwood 34 miles northward through the Elk River Valley. I don't think that people yet fully realize what impact the "Coal rush" is going to have on the environment of British Columbia. The provincial government has for a start leased some' 80 square miles (or 50,000 acres) and when this 80 square miles is strip mined, it will leave a mighty big hole in the winter range of the best big game corner of the province. Also when these properties get. into full operation I wonder how many long unit trains will be rumbling through the valley each day. The Natal area has been depressed for years and most people there welcome the prospect of increased employment opportunities and who can really blame them. In the long run strip mining is bad.-- ask the people in Kentucky or West Virginia -- but if you need a job you don't need it in the long mn, you need it right now 1 So in the name of industrial progress jobs are in, and elk are out. THE PASSPORT PROBLEM Because of all the publicity surrounding this year's difficulties with obtaining overseas passports, some people have become unnecessarily alarmed. Usually I am asked to intervene only when constituents have experienced some problems. While I've had a few "cliff- hangers", no one yet has been left stranded at the airport with out a passport. The Ottawa passport office gives priority to tiiose applicants who plan to travel the soonest, rather than to those who apply earliest. But, if by two or three weeks before your departure date you have heard nothing re your application, write or phone me and my office will track it down. Bon Voyage!

Don't miss the historic O'Keefe Ranch, near Vemon, tiie oldest large scale ranch in the province and still operated by the founder's descendents. Your kids will go nuts wandering through the restored buildings, stepping back into 1867. There is the Kelowna Regatta, one of the continent's major aquatic festivals and getting' bigger and better every year, and tiie Penticton Peach Festival which is continually reaching out for greater attractions in its friendly and continuing rivalry with Kelowna. Lake Okanagan is one of the province's finest boating areas, and it would take a week to explore fully this long body of water which played so important heavy with rich fruits and tiie stands, all painted and spic and span, line the roads of the Valley and up the Similkameen on tiie highway to Manning Park and Vancouver. Bargains, bargains and more bargains, riches beyond count. It is the Valley people who some times talk about better highways, and larger airports, and taller buildings, and progress, progress, progress. But it is the visitor who invariably says: "Oh, no. Keep it the way it is. Just like it is. You don't know what a paradise you have here." And the local chap will say, "Oh, we know. Talking about progress just gets to be a habit sometimes. We like things just the way they are too. And come Beautiful Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys Once upon a time, tiie Okanagan Valley to Canadians east of tiie Rockies meant fruit. , _ Then, in 1955, the Penticton Vees won the world's hockey title from the Russians and Canadians said, "Ah, yes, Penticton in the Okanagan Valley, and the Vee is a type of peach we buy. A very good name." But things have changed a lot in just 15 years, things like roads and autos and tourist facilities and the Okanagan Valley became known better for its lakes ind streams and fishing and hunting and its magnificent - scenery and string of clean busy towns and Cities, bright as the buttons on a Dutchman's vest. Somebody even tried to promote the Valley as "The California of Canada" but it didn't take; the Okanagan Valley was, by then, more than able to stand on its own merits. In those faraway days of apples and hockey, although there still are millions of apples grown, visitors came in July and August and then went away to dream of next year's vacation. Not so now. The Okanagan Valley is a year round area, from April fishing in its scores of lakes, and then the blossom sea son with every road bordered by beauty for every taste, and then the usual summer season. As autumn frosts turn the hillsides to gold and orange, and the last fruit pickers pack and go home, there is the late fishing and hundreds of families, who can take vacation then, enjoy the open highways, the uncrowded pleasure spots, and the extra special service in the Valley's fine hotels and motels and restaurants which is the mark of a slower and more relaxed pace. And then winter. Yes, the sunny Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys do have winter, but it is the best kind -- enough snow to make hiking crunchy underfoot, and just cold enough to keep the air brisk, and almost continuous sunny skies and clearest nights. There are many who love the Okanagan best at this time of year. And there is still a lot of hockey played too, but just for fun. Only a few years ago, there was very little skiing, and facilities were crude. Now, from the United States, over the Rogers Pass from Alberta and from by Barry Broadfoot everywhere in British Columbia, the skiers pour In to Apex Alpine at Penticton, Silver Star at the 6,300-foot level at Vemon, Big White at 7,600 feet in truly magnificent alpine meadows near Kelowna, Last Mountain at Westbank. These are areas that are becoming more famous each year. Then, around into April again and while they still ski on the high slopes, the apricots begin blooming, and then the cherries peaches, pears and, finally, apples, turning the Valley into bursting beauty. Vernon, Kelowna, Okanagan Mission, Westbank, Peachland, Naramata, Summerland, Okanagan Falls, Penticton, Oliver, Osoyoos -- these are just names on a map to the first-time visitor. And yet-each is a fascinating and complicated piece of the whole jigsaw of the Valley. Take my advice. Don't swoosh through on the eight-capitals-in nine-days European type of tour. Select 'one or two areas, and see them thoroughly, stop In at the local tourist information % centre and pick up a detailed map. You'll be amazed. On the map you'll see the town marked and tiie lake it's on. And that's about all. But on the detailed map, which the townsfolks have gone to infinite pains to prepare, a whole new world is laid out before you, along the shore, back in the hills, down the valleys and beyond the ridges. It's all there for you to discover --"the small hidden lakes with their excellent fishing, the well-maintained provincial camp sites beside streams and lakes, the picnic sites, the places to launch a boat, or find the safest warmest swimming, or the private fishing camps, and the hiking trails into abandoned ranches and ghost towns, and where one can find the best specimens if you're a rockhound, and the local picto- graphs if you dig Indian lore, and tiie local forestry lookout, and the nearby mountains a novice can climb. And shame-if you don't visit the local museum And if you show keen and sincere interest, the local people will tell you of places that are not even on tiie map --the secret lake over the old jeep trail where the fishing is even better, and the crumbled cliff where the rock specimens are finer, and the picnic spot by the water fall where you can pitch a tent and believe you are a million miles from it all. This is the way to see the Okanagan -- a little at a time. It's the only way to go. But if you want the go-go life, the cities of the Okanagan offer more than enough. I have found in each of these small but industrious cities at least three or four restaurants which can match anything any major city can offer, and the excellence of the hotels and motels could change back anytime. You're always welcome, and there's always a part in the area's transportation room for a few more." in the early days.

SPORTS by Dennis Ross, Sports Editor Another National Record For Debbie Competing in the B. C. High School Track meet at Swangard Stadium Saturday, Debbie Brill won her first B. C. Senior High School gold medal with a 5'-7 3/4" performance. As an exciting finale to the meet - - at least for the Brill supporters, came the surprising announcement that Debbie Brill and Stephanie Berto of North Vancouver were chosen co-win- After an hour's competition, when ners as "most outstanding fe- tiie last competitor but herself had been eliminated, Miss Brill requested that the bar be placed at 5'-8" to try for a new Canadian mark. She cleared the height only to find that it had not been measured correctly tiie first time. She has to share the Canadian junior mark set in '65 by Susan Nigh of Toronto, Debbie does have sole claim, however, to the juvenile record as that is her age class. Her tries at 5'-91/2" which would have constituted a 16-year-old's world --and Canadian open best proved close, but unsuccess ful. "Maybe next week in Victoria, " mused her dad, hopefully. We hope so too! Interestingly the t. v. commentator who covered die event was none other than Debbie's friend and club mate, Marilyn Mascoe, now a student at Simon Fraser University who won the same championship last year. male athlete in B.

Kin Sports Day Kin Day -- the Langley Elemen tary School Sports Day is now history and anyone who was interested in the outcome has found it out by now. But one lasting impression persists after Otter's debatable 66-64 win over second place Glenwood -- that the time has come for the gathering meet to grow up to be a real track meet. "Actually, " said Kinsman Uurie King, "It's a good thing that the hassle developed -- now we're going to have to adopt rules rather than rely on good sense." Mrs. White of Aldergrove Elementary agreed — and has voic ed a willingness to get copies of B. C. track and field rules for all interested parties.

Ron Umont, Cal Hough andAl Early Ute - LARA, Don Fletcher Keller commemorated the of Surrey. Super Stock - BCTRA, George Cook of Vancouver. B. Modified - BCTRA CalHaugi of Cloverdale. A. Modified - Skagit's Gordon Stewart from Washington. The main events were four in number and each outstanding in its own way. The Early Ute first main was scheduled for 22 cars and 20 laps. 19 completed the route with no real accidents and LARA picked up all three payoff positions, first Dennis Corfe of Berry Road in #37 - - a punished purple Packard. Second, Bill Dunn, and third Doug Blow. Both are from ' Haney and both drive Chevs. LARA made a clean sweep a- gain in the tsp Early Ute main. First, John Kowaliuk, Richmond with Surreyites Al Tourand and Ken Marwood second and third. Again there were no pileUps -- but there were some excellent fireworks provided when wheels parted company with cars and bare metal made contact on blacktop at high speeds. The dynamite blew up in the Super Stock main. 15 cars started and a full six piled up in first lap. A dozen survived -.- includ ing #26 Rick Goodwin who shattered the existing World mark at wheel changing before tiie event was re-started. Before it was over top gladiators John Rothwell, George Cook and Mac Morrison fell by tiie wayside and #33 Cord Hemrick in a "57 Chev ruled all. Second was Dennis Lester and third Ken Sayers -- all CORA mem- evening with an inspired 90 mph prong. The A winner was Linwood Washington's Gord Stewart and Cal Hough brought his battle wagon through the violence to carry off the B section. Cal's car, incidentally, is for sale. Next fixtures at the Speedway are Wednesday, June 18th (night) -- tiie Auto Daredevils' Spectacular; and Saturday, June 21st, night racing. Aldergrove Red Wings Undefeated So Far On June 10th Ravens over Orioles; Robins over Eagles, Cards over Hawks. - June 13th - Robins over Gulls; Red Wings over Hawks; Blue Jays over Ravens; Orioles over Cards. Top tiiree teams are: Red Wings (of Aldergrove) won 9 games out of 9 played. Orioles, played 9, won 6, lost tiiree. Robins, played 9, won 6, lost 3. There are tiiree games remaining and it is veiy likely that the Red Wings of Aldergrove baseball have duplicated the undefeated year of the Aldergrove Navy soccer team. It is not very likely that anyone will be able to shoot tiie Redwings down now. In Major League June 9th play, Panthers dealt Cougars their second loss of the season as Tigers edged Lions. On June 11th-- panthers over Lions, and Cougars over Tigers. Cougars and Panthers are tied on points with 18 each, but Cougars have two games in hand. In Senior play, June 9th it was Red over Green; Blue over Black. June Uth Green over Blue and Red over Black. Red has the league title sewed up with 25 points but a showdown is coming between Blue and Green for second. Blue has 18 and Green 15 with two games each remaining. Green, incidentally has a good chance of winning the two. In Miniminors to date* Reds won 5, lost 0. Blue won 4, lost 1. Black won 1. lost 4. Green won 0, lost 5. Major playoffs begin July 19th at White Rock with twelve teams entered. Walt Mynett reports tiiat Langley's first opponent will be Bumaby. .Senior playoffs begin the same weekend in Bumaby with 10 teams entered but it is not yet known who Langley will face first. Aldergrove students at the kinsmen's Sports Day held last Monday in Douglas Park. Otter Re- gion took the trophy. Studies of summer heat sickness have shown that as little as five percent loss of salt from the body produces weariness. Heat fatigue follows in three stages: loss of will to work, dizziness, cramps and fainting. It is extremely difficult for anyone in good health to get a dangerous excess of salt. For most people, seasoning with salt, in amounts to suit the taste, results in what may be called a normal intake of salt. ' MORBERG CONTRACTING BACKHOEj WORK SPECIALTY' Phono: 856.86301 Cricketers Defeat Vancouver B.C.C. Ungley Cricket dub scored an impressive victory against the Vancouver B Cricket Club last Saturday at Brockton Point, Vancouver. Ungley batted first and Scored 174 for eight declared. The highlight of Langley's attack was the brilliant batting performance of Keith Gardiner as he established a new Ungley record of 16 year's competition by scoring 106 runs not out. The previous record was held by Wayne Borwick - - who scored 100 even last season. Other home town scorers were Alan Legg - 21. Walter Brick- ley 13 not out.

Game time is 2:00 p.m. On Sunday the local 11 will travel to chilliwack fa an exhibition game against a team which hopes to enter the B. C. mainland league in the near future. John Bryan conects my statistics of last week. Langley now has six wins and two losses to its credit --in a tie for second spot. Girl's Softball Scores are few and far between in girls' softball. In senior play June 9th it was West Lang 9 - Milner 10; Petersen 26 - Murrayville 11.

He recently set a new re cord at Toronto's O'Keefe Centre with nine sell-out performances in one week. Cosby will star in his own show on tiie CBC TV network this fall. Young Adventure InWestern Canada 'I don't know if youngsters look for jobs as chainmen or roadmen any more, but these jobs were much sought after forholi- day workj' writes John Clare, "because there was something exciting about working on a big construction job. The work was outdoors and the characters were fascinating, providing the basis for many stories, some of them true, when you returned to school in the fall with a good tan and all the money you had saved because there had been little opportunity to spend it." Out of these, his own experienc es as a boy working on a survey crew, John Clare has written a tale of suspense and high adventure, Trouble at Bronco Butte. A summer job on a survey party can help turn any bey into a man, and the hero of this exciting new novel is no exception. A new highway is being forged through Canada's semi-arid southern prairie country, and Roy Clark soon discovers that the drama continues long after the last stake has been driven for the day. Roy has taken the job at his father's Urging, to gain 'experience'. Although his ambition is to become a writer, he agrees that a stint as a chain man might teach him some valuable lessons about life. One of the first things he must learn is that the rough-and-ready life of the road-gang can often be fraught with danger. His arrival in Bronco Butte, how ever, betrays little of the perils to come; "This could have been any prairie small town, baking in the shimmering July heat. The high, white false store fronts with their peeling signs were identical, except for the names, with those of a hundred other western towns." Writer, editor and part-time journalism instructor, John Gare is the author of one previous novel and numerous short stories and articles. (Trouble at Bronco Butte - Ryer- son, $4.75).

I Wonder by Eric Flowerdew I would love to see tiie senior - citizens have a 'sit-down' in front of every federal government building. We would have quite a job walking, but we all have good bottoms to sit on. We could write tiie P. M. and suggest that the older foil- would like a raise in take-home pay. Thousands of senior citizens are finding their monthly cheque worth less and less each month. 25 Years Ago D. Day took place 25 years ago, when the Allied Forces invaded the shores of France. Thousands of young men in their prime of life, suddenly lost it. Other thousands of men suffered the nerve breaking experience. We here in Canada read the news of the wonderful attempt of invasion in Europe. Our lives at home went on just the same, we went to our jobs -- maybe we cursed the weather. In our horrible society we found that the Hitler idea had to be destroyed, and thousands of our youngmen and the German men as well had to die a bloody death. Thousands of mothers and fathers — British, American or German lost their loved ones. No one has ever won a war -- especially not those who died. War makes people strange. One who is bom in one place must go out and kill another person just because he happened to be bom in another place. Yet, no one has ever asked to be bom. War makes us enemies today - - but tomorrow we might again be the best of friends. Watching The Lost Peace CBC has a program en Sundays. — the story of "The Lost Peace" — how it was claimed that tiie Allies won-the first war. How the soldiers coming home found themselves without jobs. Thousands, nay millions out of work. Great Britain was the worst off. Uter on the trouble arose in Canada and U. S. A. as well. We all lost the war --so we had to prepare the second great war. The bomb perhaps is useful in one respect -- that of holding off the next war. Yes .Some Still Live The non-fighting minister of Veterans' Affairs was asked a question in the House of Commons. How many veteran pensioners die each month? He stated, just over 400 a month. But the government of our 'Just Society' wouldn't dream of raising the pensions. That's one way of saving money. The long er they put off any talks of increase in the payments the more money they'll save. They don't pay you any pension after you're dead <■- only to the few widows who manage to stay alive en the pittances they receive. We Veterans Have Lost Yes, years ago I thought different. We veterans did not have the courage to tell the general public the truth about wars. How horrible they are. And tiie fact that if the billions and billions of dollars expended cm wars were used in the right way we would have no more wars at all. I wonder where we got the courage and wisdom to think diffe rentiy? , . The STAR, Wed.,June 18,1969 IS (W 91 B.C.Students Will Par. oap Bus ticipate In Youth Travel I&ftEJ COTTON'S SPRING ELEGANCE -- Don Breitinger of Harold U- vine designs an ensemble tiiat is the very essence of 1969 fashions with its clean, uncluttered lines interpreted in cotton brocade printed in an impressionistic red, pink and brown floral pattern. The long jacket which is belted high converts the dress with its date decolletage and tiny bodice into a daytime outfit. Four hundred and eight students from 91 British Columbia secondary schools will participate in this year's inter-provincial youth travel programme, says the Hon. Donald L. Brothers, provincial minister of education. The travel plan is called the Young Voyageurs Programme. It is the second year in which the Centennial Youth Travel Programme, which was carried out from 1964 to 1967, has been continued under its new name. The programme is sponsored by the government of Canada, which pays the travel costs, and co-ordinated by the various provincial governments. "This is a wonderful programme which I hope will continue," says Brothers. "The fact that young people from all parts of Canada get to know the problems and aspirations of other parts is a great force for real Canadian unity." Philip J. Kitley, co-ordinator of teacher recruitment for the department of education, has been in charge of the programme in British Columbia since its incep tion. "Next to participating in the programme myself," says Kitley, "I can think of no greater satisfaction than 1 get < THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY Tenders Requested Sealed tenders marked "Clearing 204 Street" will be received by the undersigned up to 1*00 p.m. Monday, June 23, 1969.
