All candidate meeting in Aldergrove Monday Another mishap on Fraser -264 th corner by Gai-y Chambers An all candidates meeting will be held this coming Monday at the Aldergrove Legion hall. The meeting is sponsored by the Aldergrove chamber of commerce, and if it is anything like the all candidates meeting held recently in Murrayville it promises to be a lively evening of entertainment. In the Murrayville meeting the four provincial candidates argued the if's, and's and but's of their campaigns with one another in what one could call a 'verbal gladiators' free for all.' In the Murrayville meeting the crowd was as much a part of the show as were the budding MLAs. Hecklers played havoc with the candidates election promises. Candidates at the Aldergrove meeting will be Bob McClelland (Social Credit), Douglas Taylor (Progressive Conservative), Roy Brown (Liberal), and Charlie Powell (NDP). The moderator of the show will be Alan Garr, the host of an open line show onCKLG-FM radio. Alan is also known for the year in which he served with Channel 8, doing special editorial reports with a fellow radio personality, Chuck Davis. Garr lives in Aldergrove. The meeting will start at 8:00 and everyone is more than welcome. There is no charge to attend. Perish the thought! Following a fatal motor vehicle, accident on the corner of the Fraser Highway and Aldergrove - Bellingham Highway a few months ago, two people died. The death of the second parry triggered a coroner's inquest, resulting in a recommendation by the jury that a traffic light be installed on the intersection. Statistics were compiled by the RCMP, showing the number of traffic accidents and classifying them, but it was felt by someone in high places the figures did not warrant a traffic light installation. The figures show there were no fatals in 1971 at the corner, but that there were eight personal injury accidents resulting in 17 injuries. The inter- An ambulance takes away another victim of the poor le gislative policies toward the Fraser and Bellingham High- Teachers don't care which The teachers in British Columbia, feeling that education is getting a raw deal from the provincial government, have pledged themselves to a program of ousting the Social Credit party from power, by advocating that their members — and the general public as a whole — vote for the local candidate who has the best chance of beating the Social Credit man of each individual riding — regardless of party politics. But in Langley the teachers action committee has not been able to decide on what candidate to throw their support behind. They only urge everyone with a stake in education — teachers, parents and property owner ratepayers not to vote for theSocial Credit party. Arry other party will do, they say. Semi trailer tips on 401 A semi trailer overturned on the 401 freeway two miles east of the 200th Street exit on Monday. Driver Donald Gary McKinnon, of Edmonton was taken to Langley Memorial hospital where at press time he is reported to be in satisfactory condition. Unit B of the RCMP freeway patrol, stationed in Surrey, report property damage to the tractor - trailer rig at about $25,000. section also saw nine other accidents resulting in property damage over $200. In the next year, 1972 - from January to June there was one fatal killing twopeople and two personal injuries. The second personal injury accident occurred this week. The injured parly in the accident this week was Doug Wessel of 53rd Ave. He was admitted yesterday afternoon to Langley Memorial Hospital following a three-vehicle pile- up at the corner. Wessel was proceedingnorth on 264th when he collided with a compact car driven by Alfred Derksen of Aldergrove, who was heading east on the Fraser Hwy. The collision drove a car into the front end of a gravel truck behind it. Police are contemplating charges in connection with the accident, but no charges have been laid as yet. Wessel is reported to be in good condition in Langley Memorial hospital. The Aldergrove chamber of commerce has pressed for a traffic light on the corner for some time, but their attempts have been thwarted each time by the highways department in Victoria. Following the most recent accident on the corner, chamber president Inge Langmann was again asked for a comment on the situation. Mrs. Langmann said she hopes the person elected to represent Langley riding in Victoria is subsequently appointed highways minister. "That seems to be the only way to get road improvements and traffic lights," she said. The chamber president also shrugged and said-how many times she had made identical comments in the past. "One does get the feeling you can talk till you are blue in the face, and get nothing but a sore throat." Social Credit candidate loudly booed by meeting With an all candidates meeting bearing down upon us in Aldergrove, we look to the recent one held in Murrayville for a sample of what is to come. The turnout in MurrayvUle was in excess of 400 people, hall. Social Credit candidate Bob McClelland was the subject of considerable heckling from the audience. The loudest boos came when the Socred hopeful told the crowd the Social Credit government has the finest system of education in all of Canada. In their rebuttals the Liberal and Conservative candidates expressed support for the NDP stand in which candidate Charlie Powell was cheered for stating that an NDP government would restructure school taxes if elected. Candidates Roy Brown and Douglas Taylor told the group their parties would do the same if allowed to form a government. Powell, a teacher by profession, said the NDP would finance school costs through general revenue instead of property taxation. He also said school classroom sizes would be reduced (teacher - student ratio) to provide employment for the 2,000 unemployed teachers in the province. Liberal candidate Brown, a trailer dealer from West Langley told people in attendance that B.C. has "a tremendous obligation" to provide work for the disabled and the able- bodied persons in the province who presently cannot find employment. He said there is also a need to revamp the welfare programs in B.C. McClelland, speaking on the government's controversial bill 33, told the meeting that it ensured "in the public interest that the government will step in." At that a heckler, piped up from the crowd, stating that "Public interest" was always "Bennet's interest." Powell accused the Social Credit government of enacting the. legislation in order to divide labor and put it into the position of a cat fighting a dog which it has cornered. Tory candidate Taylor promised a Conservative government would strive to provide the people of B.C. with "not the good life, but the better life." He went on to say an environmental management team must be established in the province to look after B.C.preservation and growth. Brown, Powell and Taylor all stated their respective parties are committed to setting up a dental care program similar in structure to the medicare program. All four candidates told the meeting that the Moran Dam would never be built. Social Credit candidate McClelland angrily told the crowd, "This is a non-issue in the election, because Premier Bennett has said that it will never be built as long as he is the premier." An all candidates meeting will be held on August 28th (this coming Monday) for people in the Aldergrove area. The meeting will be sponsored hy the Aldergrove and district chamber of commerce, andwill take place in the Aldergrove Legion hall at 8 p.m. B 55 qi E5 M I And still no traffic light! Rabies found in district A local veterinarian has informed The Star that federal vets have come up with a positive diagnosis of rabies in a dead bat found in Fort Langley. While die province of British Columbia has been rabies free for a number of years, rabies in bats is a rather common thing, and B.C.'s only real threat of this dreaded disease. People in the district are hereby informed of this incident to be aware that if they find a sick or dead bat, not to handle it or destroy it but City wonts soy in Langley Pork administration Aid. Ralph Barichello in a special meeting of Langley district council Monday, told members about a proposal by the Greater Vancouver regional district to turn regional parks over to local regional district boards for administration. The proposal would mean Langley district council would no longer have administrative control over regional parks in the municipality. Instead, council would be represented by the regional district board, thus giving a host of other municipalities a major say in the administration of local parks. "We've gone along with die development of this land, now they want to manage it," said Mayor George Preston, "I do not like this power takeover." It was resolved a letter be directed to the Greater Vancouver regional district board, expressing extreme opposition to the plan. get in touch with a local vate- rinarian or the governmental laboratory in Abbotsford. The incubation period for rabies (hydrophobia) can vary from one to six months, sometimes up to a year and tbe disease is therefore difficult to diagnose before the first symptoms appear. During the first stage a dog, if bitten, will run amuck and bite and snap at any living thing it comes across, thus distributing the fatal virus. There is in existence a treatment of rabies in humans, but the treatment has to be carried out in the very first stage in order to save toe person's life, and because this treatment is very painful it is only done in cases of absolute certainty of rabies. Because of the difficulty in diagnosis and the necessity of early treatment in humans, it is important that the source of the infection, as in this case the bat, is preserved for analysis, and any animal bitten by the bat must be destroyed before carrying this fatal disease to human beings. Lacrosse dance The Aldergrove Lacrosse Association wfll be holding a benefit dance this coming Friday night in the Aldergrove Legion hall on Fraser Hwy. The proceeds of the dance will go toward toe local minor lacrosse league. Peter and toe Kotten Tails will be playing it up at toe dance which starts at 9 p.m. and carries on until 1 a.m. The tickets are $4 per couple, available from association members. THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 1972 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Latifundia perdidere Canadam Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, Doug Taylor's reply to my letter surprised me because it is so reasonable. I had ceased to hope for a logical discussion with elected representatives after several disappointing exchanges, one with a former Vancouver mayor who replied to a letter of mine which pointed out the corruption of councilmen in general who use advance knowledge of projected municipal or private development to buy up contiguous land whose value will skyrocket. This well-known figure replied with a letter full of hate and vituperation which led me to believe that I must have cut him to the quick. May I point out to Mr .Taylor that it is hardly likely that a person will be able to come up with solutions to problems by copying what is done in the UJS. or European countries. By copying their legislation we should be bound to end up in the same mess they are in. In fact, our land problem is a matter of law which happens to be rooted in English law, which in turn is rooted in Roman law; so because of a few Roman senators two thousand years ago, we suffer from urban blight, from ribbon development, urban sprawl.pollu- tion, fragmentation and prohibitive price of farm holdings, until as Mr. Taylor points out, few young men can ever hope to become independentfarmers. It is now up to us to lead the way, for most people want something better thanwhatthey have had, - something better than what the UJS. or Europe has. We must opt for justice not expediency, and there is no lack of philosophers who have spoken out in relation to justice and land titles. Even in ancient Rome as the Patricians were grabbing the land of the serving soldiers and the public land around, the voices of the brothers Gracchus were raised in protest. The emperor Justinian later tried to reverse the trend of few people claiming big estates while the masses were landless, but he failed, and historian Pliny ties this fact to the decline and fall of Rome, -'Latifundia perdidere Italiam' - big estates ruined Italy. Closer to our own times, Winston Churchill denounced the evil of property in land. In The People's Rights, he speaks about prosperity caused by effective labor and then says, "Fancy comparing these healthy processes with the enrichment which comes to the landlord who happens to own a plot of land on the outskirts or, at the centre of one of our great cities, who watches the busy population around him making the city larger, richer, more convenient, more famous every day, and all the while sits still and does nothing ...

Postage paid in Aldergrove, British Columbia. of those improvements is effected by the labor and at the cost of other people. Many of the most important are effected at the cost of the municipality and of the ratepayers. To not one of these improvements does the land monopolist as a land monopolist contribute, and yet by every one of them the value of his land is sensibly enhanced. He rendersno service to the community, he contributes nothing to the general welfare; he contributes nothing even to the process from which his own enrichment is derived." Churchill proceeds to discuss the effect of the public collection of the publicly created land-value, saying, "That is the second main proposal of the budget with regard to land, and its effect will be, first, to raise an expanding revenue for the needs of the state; secondly, half the proceeds of this tax, as well as the other land taxes, will go to the municipalities and local authorities generally to relieve rates; thirdly, the effect will be, as we believe, to bring land into the market, and thus somewhat cheapen the price at which land is obtainable for every project, public and private, and by so doing we shall liberate new springs of enterprise and industry, we shall stimulate building, relieve overcrowding and promote employment." I would agree with Churchill that it is not just that a person should charge another for the use of land. The earth was provided free of charge for all mankind, but the location of any site confers an advantage great or small that the occupier enjoys. This advantage is shown in a rent that can be charged for exclusive enjoyment. If this rent were collected by the community which is the prime cause of it, there would be no needto tax people's labor as is done by a tax on improvements, an income tax, or a sales tax. The true farmer would not have to pay for the value of clearing, fencing, draining, or any of his buUdings, only a small amount on the bare site, just like his neighbor the plumber, the carpenter, or minister. Everyone would benefit from his improvements being untaxed, but the speculator, having to pay a due on the land equal to that paid on sinular areas put to good use, would be hit hard in the pocket, the only place such people can be hurt. There would be such a rush to sell that as Churchill pointed out, speculatively inflated prices would drop. In Australia and New Zealand municipalities are moving in this general direction, but we have an example nearer home. It is less than a generation ago that New Westminster did not tax improvements. Local revenue came purely from the land value. At that time the city was free of the evils that beset cities today. New Westminster was well laid out, houses were pleasant and in good repair, and the individual owner paid low taxes. Only since then there has been a tax-shift so that home-owners paid taxes on their homes and less on the land the home occupied, rewarding the land speculator with lower taxes. Now look at New Westminster, it is getting more and more sites held idle year after year, more and more old tumbledown houses rented out to poor people — while the owners wait for the land value to increase. Even now, New Westminster is not such a bad example of urban problems, but compare it with Bellingham where there is no charge on site-value for local revenue. There you have a classic example of urban blight. Compare Vancouver with St. Louis. Vancouver collects about one-third of the land value for local purposes, St. Louis none.Predictably St.Louis must suffer from serious urban diseases and so we are not surprised to find that the city sprawls so much that it could accomodate one hundred times the population it now has, with parks, golf courses, yet no overcrowding. Please, Mr. Taylor don't go to the UJS. - we here can teach them something! The solution here outlined is costless, in fact it involves diverting speculatively gained wealth from speculators reclining on the beach at Majorca, or living it up in Bermuda, and restoring it to the people here in the municipality. It is not just, it is not even good business that we should have to pay to buy back what is already our own. The solution works as well for cities as for rural areas because the problems are the same. As regards farming, once a person does not have to pay crippling prices for land young men could easily begin on their own account. The area of farm land would increase, for once the city and foreign speculators can make no profit, the fences around their fragments will comedown and many more viable farms can be assembled from what is now waste and might as well be on the moon for all the good it does the community. If the local authority wanted to enlarge a park (as happened at Matsqui) a neighboring speculator would not be able to hold the community to ransom. In short, private enrichment at public expense would cease, and this is just. Yours sincerely, Ernie A. Bryan, Aldergrove 8. C. for sale? NDP leader Dave Barrett has called for a new land-use philosophy incorporating regional land banks. "Ownership of large tracts of land by outside corporations is a direct threat to the rational and logical development of regional areas," Barrett said. "Once these tracts of land are lost the local people have very little say in the destiny of their community." Barrett said B.C. needs a new land use philosophy "or we could become strangers in our own land." He said he was "deeply concerned" about the vast tracts of forest land acquired in the Nelson area by Darkwoods Forestry Ltd., a German-based firm specializing in private game preserves. "I understand the company has already chained off a number of roads, depriving the local people of enjoying the land they once used freely." "It appears the company plans to set up a private game preserve in B.C." He said the NDP advocates a land-use system in which municipalities could control and develop crown land. Mr. Barrett referred to an advertisement placed by Block Bros., in the San Francisco ■ i. —i..— ■■■in ■ a | Letters to the Editor do not necessarily reflect the view of The Star.

At this time it appears that the one who comes closest to fitting the bill would be Conservative Douglas Taylor. The Matsqui mayor is the one of. the four candidates who seems to be the best choice as a politician. He is sincere, he has (unlike so many others) original ideas, and I don'tthink he'd be afraid of speaking up in Victoria — even as a member of an opposition group. That's what we sorely need, someone to communicate the cause of Langley constituency — and by this I mean every community within this political enclave. Had a brief discussion with Socred candidate Bob McClelland - a most pleasant fellow I've known for years - the other day, and explained to him this feeling of mine. He thought we'd had excellent representation for years. This, I told him, was not exactly my opinion. I like Hunter Vogel, the retiring Socred MLA, he's a nice chap, but I do not think we have had representation. And the many people who have in the past tried to get in touch with the MLA or sent him scores of unanswered letters, I am sure, will bear me out. I think it's time we elect a representative to Victoria who's more than"anicechap." • Next Wednesday's provincial election is an important one, and I urge you to consider it as such. Vote for the man who you think can spout more than the usual partisan platitudes, elect an individual. And you do not necessarily have to agree 100 percent with his party's platform. Even people who are violently anti-socialist agree that our MP in Ottawa, Mark Rose, is doig a terrific job. Do not be scared of electing an MLA who is approachable. * An interesting sidelight ... As a follow-up on lastweek's poll conducted by this paper we telephoned another ten Aldergrove residents selected at random and asked them: "Who would you rather see as British Columbia's nextpre- mier, Dave Barrett, Dave Anderson, Derril Warren or Phil Gaglardi?" The four gentlemen rated support as follows: Barrett four, Warren three, Anderson two, and Gaglardi... one. If this is an indication of the public feeling throughout the province... One of our readers, who doesn't think too much of any of the four candidates contesting this riding in next week's election, has come up with a unique proposal for what he considers a more democratic way of electing officials from prime minister down to district alderman. Anybody who wants to seek public office would be listed with his picture and a short outline of his political philosophy in a sort of 'Who's Who' - and when you and I go to the polls we'd just tick off the name of the guy who appeals to us the most. But now comes the interesting part: If, in a matter of a few weeks or months we find out that our choice has cheated us, by promising us things which he has no intentions of living up to, then we'd scrap him. We'dsimp- ly walk up to the returning officer any day of the week and tell him we want to change our vote. He'd destoy our initial ballot, and we'd pick a new man from the book. And our man in Ottawa, Victoria or Murrayville will be packing. The system, if it was feasible, would certainly bring about greater degrees of democracy, honesty and political integrity, but no doubt an awful lot of people would be coming and going every day of the year in council chambers, the legislature and parliament. It's hard to know whether to disbelieve some small news itemr. or to smite the paper with a mallet. Such was the item from London, England, which quoted Defence Minister Edgar Benson as sayingCanada expects to sign a $40-million contract for 100 tanks. Tanks! Canada needs British tanks like it needs a trans- Atlantic suspension bridge for driving them over here. Has the government learned nothing from the money it wasted on the Bomarc; on the refitting of the Bonaventure; on the Bobcat vehicle which never worked; on the Bras d'Or hydrofoil; on those jet fighters that go directly from the assembly line into mothballs? Mr .Benson also suggested in London that the government may order $600 - to $700- million worth of long-range patrol aircraft to replace the Argus planes now in service. Some of these could watchdog for violations of Canada's antipollution regulations, especially in the Arctic. But those assigned, like the Argus, to anti-submarine patrols are essentially part of the UJS, Cold War establishment. Their purchase and operation would be a waste of tax money andwould not even have the virtue of creating employment for Cana dians. At a time when George Igna- tieff, Canada's Ambassador to the office of the United Nations in Geneva, is pressing for general disarmament at the 25-nation disarmament conference, our government should be cutting back on purchases of these expensive military toys. Together these orders would total nearly $l-billion! The Canadian public should tell Mr .Benson and the government: thanks, but no tanks. Or planes - if they're going to be used to prolong a Cold War which benefits only munitions makers. -United Church News PROVINCE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA PROVINCIAL ELECTIONS ACT NOTICE TO ABSENTEE VOTERS If you are a temporary resident of this area, but are registered as a Provincial voter in another polling division or in another electoral district of the Province, you may vote " absentee " as follows:— Apply on polling-day, at the polling-station established for this area, for a special (absentee) ballot. You will be required to take an affidavit that you are a registered voter, and if you are registered in another electoral district, you must know the name of that district. In your affidavit give the address at which you are registered, but in signing the poll-book give your present permanent address. If you are registered in another polling division of this electoral district, you may vote for the candidates nominated to contest the election in this district, using an ordinary ballot. Your marked ballot will be sealed in an envelope, which will not be opened until your name has been found on the voters list for some polling division of this electoral district; if your name is not found, the envelope will not be opened and your ballot will not be counted. If you are registered in another electoral district, the procedure is the same, except that you will be given a special ballot, on which you must write the name of the candidate* for whom you wish to vote, because there will be no printed ballots at the poll for other electoral districts. You will be given a list of the candidates running in the district in which you claim to be registered; therefore, you must know the name of that district. Before final count, the sealed ballot-envelope will be mailed to the Returning Officer for the district in which you claim to be registered, and if he cannot find your name on the voters list for that district, the envelope will not be opened and your ballot will not be counted. The poll officials will have a list of the polling divisions and local place-names in the Province, and in many cases will be able to locate your electoral district by looking up the polling division or local place-name corresponding to your address. It is not enough to give " Vancouver " or " Victoria " as your electoral district, because there are several electoral districts involved in each city. The poll officials will have a small map of each city showing electoral districts. If you are registered in Vancouver or Victoria but are unsure of your electoral district, locate your address on the map. Therefore, to be sure your absentee ballot will not be wasted, know the proper name of the electoral district in which you are registered as a Provincial voter; registration as a municipal voter has no bearing on the case. CHIEF ELECTORAL OFFICER, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, British Columbia. * In Victoria and in. certain Vancouver electoral districts, two members are elected, and voters registered in these districts may vote for two candidates, and will be so advised at the poll.

Short summer, wasn't it? Students of all shapes, sizes and ages should now prepare for registration. The instructions for registration and the first day of attendance are as follows: Any unregistered elementary school students in the Belmont, Simonds, Langley Prairie or Langley Central areas should register at the elementary school closest to their places of residence On Tuesday, September 5th. Registration on that date will be between 9 and 10 a.m. The areas mentioned are areas with large population increases so it is very important students appear on this date. In other areas within Langley school district, elementary students should appear on the 5th if they are new to the school (between 9 and 10 a.m.), and on the 6th if returning to the same school as last year. Kindergarten newcomers should register Tuesday, September 5th between the hours of 9 and 10 a.m. at the region al office in their area. For Aldergrove the regional office is at Parkside elementary school, for the Fort Langley area Fort elementary, and in the Otter region the North Otter school. For secondary students; Aldergrove secondary will register grades eight through twelve from 9 to 10 a.m., Langley secondary will take the morning shift grades 11 and 12 from 9 to 10 a.m., and the afternoon shift, grades 8, 9 and 10 from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. All unregistered students should attend on September 5th and all others should appear on the 6th. In Fort Langley students should appear on the 5th at H.D.Stafford school for registration between 9 and 10 a.m. The official first day of school for everyone is September 6th. Charles Cuthbert at the Langley school board offices, says this year the board projects an increase of about 700 students in the district. The new students, if the figures are near the mark, will bring the student populace to a level of 8,300. Les Peterson in Abbotsford on skyjacking While at Vancouver Airport authorities and airport personnel were playing out the scenes of a sensational skyjacking drama — at Abbotsford Ajrport some unexpected visitors were milling in the crowd waiting to catch flights or buses to their destinations. Among the many diverted passengers who crowded into Abby Airport during the skyjack episode, were MLA Grace McCarthy and Attorney-General Les Peterson. Peterson was at the airport a week prior to the enforced landing (almost to the hour) to open the 1972 Abbotsford International Airshow. At that time he mads some statements to the crowd in attendance regarding air piracy. He said he would like to see a stiffer approach to the problem and reported he would return to Victoria and push for a penally of life in prison for anyone seeking to use B.C. as a sanctuary after the act of a skyjacking. When approached by a Star reporter at Abbotsford Airport Aldergrove may be listed in Mission book Word has been released that Aldergrove and Langley are to be placed in different phone books. Under the terms of a plan B.C. Telephone Co. has worked out for revision of their directory service, Aldergrove would be in a phone book along with Mission and Abbotsford, while Langley numbers would be listed with Surrey and Cloverdale. Areas such as Pitt Meadows and Haney would be in still another book. When informed of the proposal, Langley district council had a hostile reaction to the cause. "With the crummy service," said Aid. Gary Smith, "the least they could do is give us a decent phone book." Aid. Andy Milne, obviously at a loss for words simply termed the proposal as being "crazy." A representative of B.C.Tel will be asked to appear before council this coming Monday to hear council's objections and discuss the matter. on Friday morning, Peterson enlarged on his previous statements. "In the past we have read of skyjackings in the news with interest, feeling the activity to be far from our own city," he said, "Today the seriousness of the situation should bring it closer to home and it evokes the need for a serious approach to the situation." Following the interview Peterson and Mrs.McCarthy left the airport by bus to attend a meeting in Vancouver. Meanwhile, the hijacked United Airlines liner was taking off for Seattle where the 43-year-old airborne Robin Hood, who claimed he was after the ransom to help crippled kids in North and South Vietnam, was later shot and captured by FBI agents posing as air crew members. Resideots moy eoforce own hooting lews Concerned residents on 48th Avenue, in the area of the Vancouver Game Farm, are banding together to stop the hunting of game birds on their properties. Warren L. Shirt, of 48th Ave. has been in touch with the game farm who reportedly stand behind the plan. TheShirt family and the game farm people are now hoping to get other residents in tbe area to join with them to establish a hunting ban in the area. The area is heavily populated with Canada Geese, Mallard ducks, and peacocks. Mrs. Shirt reports it has been known for people to arm themselves with rifles and walkie talkies to shoot the birds from the roadside. Langley district council explains this is highly illegal, but it is a problem having police in the right place at the right time to enforce the law. The area, if all the residents decide to cooperate on the effort, will account for more than 200 acres of land and would thus make a fair sized bird sanctuary.

Emma was a simple woman of paragon virtues. Her skirt hem was generally uneven, and the wart on her nose amused children when it wobbled. She would faithfully fill out her soccer pools every week and send her grown up son off to post it before deadline. She was basically a poor woman of but few worldly possessions, but she was loved and she in turn did love, and this made her equal to airy princess with warts in less conspicuous places. It came to pass one day, Emma found she was the subject of an ailment requiring medical attention. Inquiries were immediately made into the possibility of attaining an appointment with the family doctor, Herbert Smithrite. Smithrite was a devoted medical man, who had the good fortune to be born with a silver spoon in his cakehole. Being a man of humanitarian purpose, Dr. Smithrite took it upon himself to move to the low rent district and serve the poor instead of becoming a famous and extremely expensive society doctor. When Emma paid her visit to the jolly old MJD. the examination was short and the diagnosis straight forward: "You have gout." Emma was enraged. She stomped out of the doctor's infirmary and went straight home with the medicine he'd given her. Upon her arrival home she relayed to her family the story of her misadventure with the medico. She told them what a silly fool the man must be, for he'd diagnosed a rich man's disease toapoor woman. How could she possibly have gout? She did not drink expensive liquors, she did not attend board meetings, she did not overeat, and she'd raised her kids without the help of a nanny. She refused to take the gout medicine, claiming that if she was to have gout, then she should likewise be in a position to enjoy the luxuries that cause it. If you put the story of Emma together with the quote of Dave Barrett, somewhere you might find a moral to the story. But don't ask what it is, if we told you your reaction might be like that of Emma.

SERVING THE ERASER VAUEY 6 THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 1972 Is this it? On August 1st, 1952, nine men and one woman, the majority of them barely yet on a second name basis, filed in cabinet order behind newly elected Premier William Andrew Cecil Bennett to form a British Columbia government that would endure far longer than any of the twenty-five administrations preceding it. Of the original ten, only Wesley D. Black and The Reverend Philip A. Gaglardi go to the polls in 1972 as Social Credit bids for its twenty-first year in office. Age, death, disinclination, jail, ambition and due democratic process have taken their toll. Black alone remains in his 1952 post as Provincial Secretary, having shed Municipal Affairs and assumed the Highways portfolio peeled from Gaglardi as that Pentecostal Minister of Public Works spiralled his way through public acrimony to the lowest precedence portfolio of Rehabilitation and Social Improvement. Above them all: Bennett. In twenty years of unbroken government he has already outlasted Sir Richard McBride — the only other double-figure premier — by seven and a half years, and has totalled as many years in office as the stewardships of McCreights, DeCosmos, Walken, Elliott, Beaven, Davis (twice), Semlin, Martin, Dunsmuir, Prior, Bowser, Brewster, MacLean and the Johnsoncoalitioncombined. Even reaching back into the immediate past, Bennett's spell thus far equals the three coalition governments plus the eight year Patullo term and the final year of Simon Fraser Tolmie's administration. Incredible combioation Few in 1952 might have guessed that the Tory turncoat hardware dealer from Kelowna, scoffed at by the province's intelligentsia for his swift affiliation with Social Credit and its by then-discredited A plus B religio - economic theories would retain firm political control of British Columbia as it entered an unprecedented phase of physical and, to a somewhat lesser extent, social expansion. Few too might have seen in the man roundly castigated by marry of his earlier political associates and adversaries the incredible combination of energy, hucksterism, daring, paternalism, insight and guile that would make him far and away the most resourceful, portentous and epochal premier in British Columbia's history. On the heels of a collapsing coalition government that had aroused public apathy and indignation by its inter-party squabbling, indecision onPGE railway policy, a chaotically managed hospital insurance scheme and province-wide labor strife, Bennett's Socreds assumed minority power with 30 percent of the popular vote. A hastily introduced and almost impossibly complex transferr- able ballot aimed at keeping the CCF from government benches had enabled the Socreds, with 4 percent less public support than toe CCF, to squeak in. And there, with routine pauses to establish and maintain what the premier has always called his 'mandate from the people,' they have been ever since. What he did, how he did it, and why will doubtless absorb a generation of political historians, for 'Cece' Bennett's impact upon the entire province of British Columbia continues to be profound and, wherever possible, apparent. A shrewd and successful sales man of consumer durable goods he has never shirked from pitching his legislative products, drumming home the merits of serviceability above style, pasting his own label on whatever competing lines he sensed the public wanted ... and would be willing to pay for. From a governmental store front marked 'Free Enterprise' Bennett has consistently and with almost child-like ease sold, wholesale or retail, a wide variety of goods to roll 'em in through the doors. Shattering his competition with clear-out sales of their own branded merchansise, Bennett has erased and repainted traditional political boundaries whenever a product looked good enough to move. Hot shot salesman One by one or three at a time, the other parties brought in hot-shot salesmen who held up Bennett merchandise that was too costly, too cheap, too big, too small, out of style or just plain shoddy. And every time he drowned them with ridicule, hard-to-resist sale offerings, easier credit and the threat to buyers that shopping over the street would void his guarantee. With every ounce of a ceaseless, high-pressure campaign behind it, the 'Good Life' became less a catechism of Social Credit doings, and more a quasi mystic, proprietary definition of British Columbia in the whole — an overall statement of being from which Social Credit - and particularly Cece Bennett — could not, and must not be removed. The government that began with prophetic and more than moderately fundamentalist leanings became, to all intents and purposes, a theocracy with the tremendous added advantage of a star salesman in the front seat. Bennett, eleven years seasoned as a back bench MLA, took over government with a well researched plan for future development in his pocket. A member of the Post War Rehabilitation Council, he used that body's long-set-aside report — its identification of needed highways, hydro electric development, and pulp mill locations — as a chart for what many would later call government by bulldozer. Shifting the apparent seat of power away from incestuous Vancouver - Victoria constraints, Bennett presented Brit ish Columbians with the one promise that would attract them time and time again ... future greatness. The coalition had offered (but not always provided) expertise and efficiency, the CCF brotherhood and justice. But this unpredictable, renegade Tory from the hinterland promised destiny at hand. Utopia. The great leap forward. From this promise, he has developed a unique political personality, one that ranges from statesmanship to expediency, from sensitivity to arrogance, and that in due course of time has come to overshadow the flavor of this province more than any other. But time, like some of the other unreplenishable resources his energy has helped tap, is running out. Today, two decades after his emergence as the leader of government in British Columbia, the provincial boundaries are as they were then. Today, with the statistical likelihood of six and a half years of life remaining, much of what he set out to do has been done and, in turn, created the need to do much more. Today, after roundly crushing his opponents one after the other at the polls, he has named no clear successor. 'When are they going to have one over in Canada...?" He is Sociel Credit One way or the other, Mr. Bennett's unprecedented term of superintendence will end, perhaps within days, perhaps years. With his going, Social Credit, like the symbolic flaming arrow he launched to ostensibly free this province of debt, may fall short of the mark and be rapidly snuffed out. For Bennett, salesman supreme and politician extraordinary, i s Social Credit. Unimpeachable in scandal, un assailable in resolve, unfathomable in political direction, Bennett has maintained his party in office by confounding others, by adroitly maneuvering them into positions of reaction, and by creating his own comparisons. When he goes, an extraordinary phase in British Columbian self expression must inevitably go with him, and a critical time of self evaluation will almost certainly begin. Even the emergence and evaluation of a new Social Credit leader would, of necessity, create a fundamentally different focus of government as social forces.longheldincheck by Bennett's astonishing will, pressed for a change of balance, a resetting of priorities. That he has achieved many of the things he set out to do is manifestly evident. That he did so by effectively riding over previously established conventions is not only remarkable in itself but a direct contradiction of Social Credit's current electoral stance.

Corporate government in B.C. Continued from page 6 Opposing parties, naturally enough, claim that change and the injection of an entirely new government are desirable and, in fact, necessary. Mr. Bennett, by achieving it, has proved the value of the claim far more eloquently than could any other group by aspiring to it. And now, the most noteworthy of all his achievements, the creation of an astonishingly forceful political entity out of some thing as tenuous and mystic as the promise for future greatness, comes back to haunt him and to confront his physical accomplishments. The government of these two last decades has been es en- tially corporate in nature. Its aims, its thrusts, its whole accounting of itself have been in terms of output, in terms of tangible objectives realized, in terms of earnings retained. It has taken a classically corporate stance in respect to the political heft of labor, baited it, besieged it, enticed it to foolishly fight back on the same terms, thus proving government "right" and labor "wrong." And in this it can be properly criticized as government in remove, willingly and wilfully set aside from . a part of the population that, however contrary to the governmental stance, is still composed of citizens dependent upon the good offices of government. To future administrations, it appear, will fall the arduous role of reconciliation, not so much with those particular labor leaders that have formed a polarized and possibly equally removed stance, but with the rank and file, the governed. But it has failed to spot, and to follow, a major shift in direction mat modern corporations have taken. It has reneged on the powerful human needs that gave it its original mandate. The great sadness of this administration that has achieved so much in other areas is that in purely human mat. ters, in those changing values and needs which it appears to understand far less perfectly than it does rivers and railways, highways and forests, it has chosen to denounce what it cannot understand. From the traditional Social Credit shibboleth of "godless socialists" has grown a curious, pugnacious attitude toward those who disagree with it on any tern- whatsoever - political, economic, humanitarian, moral. It has made the dangerous error of concentrating the body politic into the body, singular, and in this it has faulted even its own corporate stance. For even the redoubtable capabilities and energies of Cece Bennett are not enough to comprehend and adjust to the vast, prismatic THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 1972 A? social movements of a sizeable, industrial community today. By maintaining a close to absolute control of his government's doings, and by thus far failing to name or even indicate a successor, Mr. Bennett has shown - protestations to the contrary — that his view of these last two decades is temporal, not dynastic. Such a top executive attitude in any large commercial corporation with an eye to future markets would be absurd. The shareholders wouldn't stand for it. -Affairs B.G.

B.C. homemakers are discovering that turkey segments are not only thrifty but filled with possibilities for everyday mealtime use. It takes only a short time to cut a whole turkey into drumsticks, thighs, breasts and other pieces - perfect for barbecues and casseroles. Turkey is ideal for fondue cooking, too - simply cube and dip in light batter. And that's only a beginning.

Shelford, Minister THE STAB, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 1972 ____m %<lf Newspapers in Japan An untapped merked for Lord Roy Thompson? Form booklet reedy now The concentration of newspapers into a small number of chains has raised concern in Canada, and in many other parts of the world. However, in Japan, the problem does not exist. In fact, not only are there five major national papers competing throughout the country, but also a powerful provincial daily press competing in each prefecture. No monopoly of the printed word can be found. The existence of national dailies in Japan is something not really found in Canada. In Britain, several morning papers have a considerable readership throughout the country, and the Federal Republic of Germany also has similar dailies. Yet there are very few newspapers of quality which command a nationwide circulation of as many as five or six million copies, as is the case with Japan's national dailies. One newspaper, for example, has five publishing offices in key areas of Japan to issue 30 different editions of the paper, plus as many as 109 local editions consisting of two to four pages each throughout the country. It is thus printing and publishing a combination of many dailies of different contents for almost 15 hours on end. This large newspaper enterprise has a total of 10,000 persons in its employ, including as many as 2,300 editorial staff members. It has 30 correspondents stationed abroad plus 13 airplanes of its own. Both these five major dailies and the provincial papers are of an exceptionally high quality - unlike the "popular" newspapers that appear in other nations. The fact that such dailies of generally high quality are issued throughout Japan is believed to have a considerable influence on the formation of public opinion and the functioning of a democratic government. The intense competition between the provincial and national papers has resulted in a continuing improvement in the provincial press. Generally, one provincial daily is published in each of Japan's 44 prefectures, excluding Tokyo and Osaka. Production techniques are complicated in Japan by the fact that instead of using a Roman-type alphabet, Japanese printers must constantly use as many as 3,000 Chinese and Japanese characters. However, technical innovations have been taking place. In 1959 the Asahi Shimbun, a major daily paper, adopted a microwave facsimile transmission system that enabled it to publish simultaneously identical papers in Tokyo and Hokkaido. That same year, the provincial newspapers adopted a system for automatically setting type with a teletype tape, thus streamlining the production system. Over the years, the innovations have continued. The latest is the system adopted by a major economic journal in which toe composing and laying out of each page of the newspaper is done with toe aid of a computer. Besides this, the entire subsequent printing process is automated. What lies in the future? Possibly a newspaper printed in the home via a facsimile process, doing away with troublesome delivery problems, as well as the cost of big presses to print the present newspapers. The big three national dailies — Asahi, Mainichi and Yomiuri, are developing a new system. It is now possible, via cable television or another type of electronic signal to print both sides of a newspaper sheet, and thus to transmit the news paper to each room. What remains to be solved is the cost of the receiving apparatus and paper. However, it is possible that the system may be used within the next 10 years. -Japan Reports Party leaders invited to appear AU provincial party leaders have been invited to address a public mass rally in the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, called by the Federation of Independent School Associations in its campaign to achieve legal recognition and financial support for the 150 independent schools in British Columbia. The rally has been slated for tomorrow night, August 24. The Sough Saskatchewan River Project became a reality almost 10 years ago. Today toe project is nearing its potential of 200,000 irrigated acres. While irrigated land in the province is not likely to increase significantly, there is a big demand for information on managing a variety of irrigation operations on toe prairies. This need is largely being met by work at the Agriculture Canada Swift Current, Sask., research station. The Central Fraser Valley regional district will shortly make available, in booklet form copies of a regional farmland study. The detailed study will cover marry aspects of farm land use and economics asso- Directors feel building controls not needed Municipal officials in B.C. have been advised that the provincial government plans to introduce legislation to control building in areas considered to be flood prone. Under the new legislation buildings planned for suspected areas would have to be approved by the water resources department. This led to the observation at Monday night's Central Fraser Valley regional district meeting, that by controlling flood problems, such control of building would be redundant. Mayor George Ferguson of Sumas suggested, and directors agreed, that a single diking and flood control authority should be set up in B.C. with the federal and provincial governments shouldering the cost by themselves. Director Harry De Jong of Matsqui council observed that the success in Matsqui in forcing the provincial government to backtrack on the contentious" ditching program in that municipality, shows that concerted action can bring results. The support of other regional districts will be sought. ciated with farming in toe Fraser Valley. It is the result of a study group under the chairmanship of Roy Eccott. One fact in the brochure is that farmers find it cheaper to import hay and grain from outside toe area because of increasing land prices. It also tells that although farm overhead is increasing rapidly, tod returns from farming in the Valley are increasing faster.

This is absolutely ridiculous, Powell says. Powell continues, "To the contrary I think the people of B.C. are now faced with the choice between continued arrogant mismanagement of provincial affairs by the Socreds, or a complete change in attitude toward problems by an NDP government - a government which wUl have the needs of the people as its number one priority." Powell says that several thousand low-rental housing units could be built for less money than the $11 million which the B.C. government plans to spend on a government skyscraper for Vancouver.

The meeting was held to try to find a solution to the problem that has arisen out of the farmers' attitude to ditching programs in Matsqui. The farmers claimed the present ditching program is causing damage to dikes and will not solve the seepageproblems anyway. After two hours of deliberation with the farmers and the municipal officials in attendance, Kiernan agreed to go back to the cabinet and recommend the halting of the ditch program. He made this decision inspite of advice from provincial engineers that ditching was the most effective way of solving the seepage problem as it now stands. Before returning to Victoria with his findings, Kiernan told the meeting he feels a change in plans at this point would add considerably to the present $2.8-million dike improvement program. Also considered at the meeting were possible improvements to the pumping system and an examination of the drainage problems in higher areas.

Responses indicated almostun- animous agreement on questions 7 and 10, with aU but one of the replies favorable to each. Questions 4 and 5 drew the most negative and uncommitted responses,afactthat the environmental councU attributes to a general lack of public understanding of the significance of these issues. In spite of the campaign rush many of the candidates tookthe trouble to write thoughtful comments, whether or not they agreed with the policies. BCEC president Mrs. Lois Boyce commended them for their awareness "of the importance and urgency of environmental issues in this campaign." The Langley candidates rated as follows: Brown (Lib.) no answer, Powell (NDP) - 9, Taylor (proCon) - 1, and McClelland (Socred) - no answer. Planner Eugene Lee of the Central Fraser Valley regional district told other directors Monday night that planners in the lower mainland and through out the Fraser Valley met recently to consider the impact of planned pipelines and power lines through the area. Already in the planning stage is a solids pipeline planned by Shelpac, which would carry coal in slurry form from south eastern B.C. to Roberts Bank. Lee says that within twenty years three or four more such pipelines can be expected, a- long with one or two more hydro power lines. Planners have recommended that a corridor along the UJ3. border be set aside to accomodate such future pipelines and power lines. The Shelpac line is planned for the present B.C. Hydro Civil defence school Directors of the Central Fraser Valley regional district have been invited to send a representative to a Civil Defence sehool next month at Arnprior, Ontario. Directors could not agree who should attend the school. Director Len Saxbee of the Abbotsford council said he had attended one in the past and found it to be of little use, as things like this should be attended on a more regular basis. Director Ralph Barichello, of the Langley district council agreed, and said a course he attended some years ago was worthwhile, bui ho has now forgotten everything he learned there. The course was offered at the expense of the Civil Defence department.

To date, the strand of hair found at the scene of the crime has helped catch and convict more fictional, detective story villains than real ones. Identification by means of hair samples just hasn't been positive enough to stand up under meticulous courtroom scrutiny. Forensic scientists would dearly love to unlock the secrets of hair because of the frequency with which it turns up in the course of criminal investigation. People lose, on the average, 100 hairs a day, according to Dr. Brian Pate of Simon Fraser's Chemistry Department. "Because of this," he says, "hairs are very common in evidence. They are often involved in criminal investigation, particularly crimes of voilence." Thus far, examination of hair in the forensic laboratory has relied mainly on the microscope. At best such analysis has allowed the examiner to say only that a particular hair might belong to a particular person.

See CENTRAL THE-jSaff 5TO .VALLEY .FRASER HI WAY. ALDERGROVE PUBLISHERS PRINTERS PHOTOGRAPHERS to "fingerprint" hair - establish a characteristic profile by determing the concentration of individual elements present in it. This procedure, called trace element analysis, is basically a simple one and can be up to 10,000 times more sensitive than mere chemical analysis. Hair contains 18 known elements, including gold, zinc and chromium, in varyingamounts. Different people generally are believed to have different and unique amounts of most of these elements in their hair. This uniqueness would make it possible to say a piece of hair is from a particular person. That's the theory. However, its acceptability either in a courtroom or laboratory is somewhat in dispute. Pate admits: "Some groups say it is impossible to fingerprint people by the hair. But I am mildly optimistic." "There is a chance of picking two people with the same hair content of one element, but the probability of doing this by accident with nine elements is, maybe, one in one million ... there is very Utile chance." Trace element analysis or "fingerprinting'' can be used to identify much more than human hair. It can also be applied to such diverse things as oil, paint, glass or bullet lead. The ability to fingerprint oil will provide vital ammunition in the war against pollution. Such technology won't clean up any oil spills, but it will go a long way toward preventing them. The source of an oil spill is not always evident, according to Pate. Often the ship responsible for discharging oil is miles away by the time a slick has been discovered. In other cases, the investigation of a spill is frustrated by multiple suspects - several ships or oil storage tanks near a stricken area. Says Pate: "If you have a pretty good idea what outlet is involved you can say to them, 'Clean up' and they can say 'But it's not our oil'." "Present technological methods are just not sufficient enough to pinpoint the source for a court of law. But if you go to a company and say 'We know it's your oil and we can prove it in 24 hours' the very existence of such technology is a powerful deterrent to sloppy practices." A $6,000 Opportunities for Youth grant is helping to finance four students working with Fate during a summer- long research program into oil-fingerprinting. The four student-researchers, Jyoti Thakore, Harsh Thakore, Susan Easier and Yvonne Adi- winata, are undergraduate science students. The effectiveness of future international pollution control laws will depend largely on technology such as oil-fingerprinting. Dr. Pate Says: "The Stockholm Conference, which we are hearing so much about right now, has shown the need for international pollution laws. But before you can set up laws, you have to have the scientific back-up. You must have the technology to say the oil came from a specific source."

''fingerprinting'' hair, involves measurement of the amounts of various elements present in it. The concentration of elements will differ not only from refinery to refinery, but in the same refinery from time to time. Pate says even the oil industry is interested and co-operating in Simon Fraser's research. Besides being pollution conscious, he claims, refineries forsee industrial applications for the technique of "fingerprinting.". For example, the appearance of small oil slick in waters near a refinery often serves first notice of a leaking storage tank. Discovering which tank is defective becomes a simple matter of fingerprinting. Trace element analysis in itself is not unique to Simon Fraser. As a technique it is internationally known and used. Its application for forensic science, however, is somewhat special. Pate estimates only three groups inCan- ada are working in this area. A total of eight people have done, or are now doing, forensic research under Pate's direction. Besides the four working in oil, a French PhD student, Daniel Maes, is studying hair on a Canada Council Fellowship, while lastyear another student, Robert Guy wrote his thesis on bullets. Two technicians, James Gislason and Patti Card are also working in this field. Simon Fraser's total forensic research program is now funded through a $16,400 grant- courtesy of the federal Solicitor-General's office. Pate terms the grant a milestone for the University, since it is the first of its kind ever awarded. Most research grants, including those for Fate's research into nuclear fission and radioactivity, come from the National Research Council. And while ■ PhD-level research continues, careful consideration is being given to establishing a complete forensic science program at Simon Fraser with undergraduate, masters and doctorate work available. The content of such a program is, as yet, undecided. Information gained at two forensic science conferences in Scotland this fall should help Dr. Pate plan in this area. Further program planning and the need for eventual Senate approval means that introduction of a forensic science program is still some distance in the future. "I don't see a forensic science program any earlier than a year tMscomingSeptem- ber," says Brian Pate. "We don't want to rush into a program half-baked." Should it become reality, a forensic science program at Simon Fraser would be only the third in Canada, following the University of Toronto and University of Ottawa. -SFU Comment BLUEPRINTING AND HOUSE PL/WS Custom drawn to your require ments.

More and more it is becoming evident that working is only a means to an end and not an end in itself. We want shorter working hours and more machinery to facilitate our work - we want to have more time and energy to expend on our leisure hours - and we don't want to have to spend our weekends and evenings cutting lawns or gardening or repairing the leaky gutters or pot-holed driveway. But we don't want living in hi-rise apartments and paying for something that will never be ours. Ashwell Town Houses Ltd. think they have the answer — the Countryhouse Way of Life. They've built 42 countryhouses in West Chilliwack and collectively called them Beautiful Centennial Gardens. These Beautiful Centennial Gardens' Countryhouses come in 2 or 3 bedroom sizes and have full basements — that's a total area of close to 2,000 square feet in the 3 bedroom size. The basement is deliberately left unfinished so that the owner can create whatever he desires - be it a rec room, workshop, sewing room ... whatever! The only defined section of toe basement is the laundry room which already has toe necessary hook-ups for washer and dryer plus a built- in laundry tub. The bedrooms of the Beautiful Centennial Gardens' country houses are wall-to-wall broad- loomed. Outstanding are toe large closets which extend the entire length of one wall. The master bedroom has a private entrance to the large bathroom. Inflatable beach toys should not be used as life preservers. They can suddenly deflate and leave your child groping for vital air. They can lure weak swimmers out into deep water. So remember, stay alive with Red Croww water safety all summer long. There's also another half-bathroom on the mainfloor. The living room, also carpeted, has large, sliding doors opening on to a private patio — from where toe mountain view is magnificent! There's another cedar-enclosed patio off the dining area — here, there's a view of the main concourse of Beautiful Centennial Gardens with its gorgeous landscaping. The kitchen comes in either corridor or dead-end design and all have the stove-refrigerator-sink triangle design that every well-planned kitchen should. The basic countryhouse does not come equipped with stove and refrigerator, but can be arranged if desired. To avoid color clashes, all walls of the Beautiful Centennial Gardens countryhouses are a natural color. The display home, a fantastic blend of golds, oranges and browns, gives.one example of what can be done. Underground facilities bring all utilities into individual units so there are no unsightly wires or poles to interfere with the landscaping. All roads and pathways are paved and there is ample and decorative lighting. Parking is no problem with each unit allocated at least one space. A joy for toe children is toe playground with teeter totters, swings, climbers and even a wading pool. The upkeep of all these outside facilities would be devastating for the average home owner, but at Beautiful Centennial Gardens, for a nominal fee of about $15 per month, all exterior maintenance of private homes and common areas is taken care of - this includes exterior painting, gardening, snow shovelling, roof repairs, driveway and pathway repairs. The total price of these Beautiful Centennial Gardens' countryhouses is less than $20,000 with less than $1,000 down, and owners are eligible for the home owners grant.

Open 6.30 a.m. in store An Aldergrove man who visited a Langley music store Monday afternoon shortly before 5:30 was locked in toe store by the owner. The shopper walked into the store and began browsing a- round looking at all the expensive tape decks and record albums. After some considerable wait to see a shop attendant he began walking around the store in search of the storekeeper. Much to his surprise he did not find one. A further investigation of the situation brought the shopper to realize the front door was locked from the outside and thus he found he was trapped in the shop. Just then the keeper of a neighboring store happened by in the hallway which joins all of the stores in the rear. She told the man to look at the rear door, where he found a way out. Our honest-minded Aldergrove resident left for home empty handed wondering what the proprietor would do when he was informed he had locked a customer in his store.

This is being done during the exhibition games to get the team better prepared to meet somewhat less outstanding opposition from neighboring teams. The Don's are presently scouting for new members, so if you are a soccer enthusiast, you can reach the team through their sponsor, Don Charlton of Don's Auto Body in Aldergrove. If you prefer to admire the game from the sidelines, pop round to the Aldergrove Navy base this Sunday at about noon to catch some fine local soccer action. Bring the kids, everyone else does. Always swim with a buddy. That way if you get in trouble in the water someone will be there to help. Remember, stay alive withRedCross water safety all summer long. The Aldergrove Dons played another exhibition game last weekend against a team presently in a league higher than the Aldergrove lads. The Dons are matching themselves against the toughest teams they can find during the exhibition games, in the hope that the experience they gain during this period will help them handle the teams in their own league when the actual season starts. The game last weekend saw the Dons Soccer Association matched against the Germania Soccer Club of Vancouver. Germania being a league team, put the Dons down in 10 to one style. The Dons* defence was in poor form for the game as team member Sid Anderson pointed out to The Star when approached Monday. He said that he personally "knew before yesterday's game that we would get slaughtered." He went on to say he hoped the experience the Dons are getting in games like that one wUl give the 'Grove team an edge against tough people like the / ALDER - INN HOTEL YOUR HOST JOHN NUNUCK LADIES 856- 2916 MEN 8 56-2917 Hi-Vay Salvage WE BUY BEER BOTTLES - COPPER - BRASS - ALUMINUM - LEAD - RADIATORS - BATTERIES - And all types of STEEL & CAST.- WE PAY HIGHEST PRICES AND WE PICK UP, JUST PHONE .856-8308 29092 Fraser Highway Aldergrove 3 Aldergrove Salvage AUTO WRECKING & TOWING We buy all metal, beer bottles We pick-up - Clean basements and yards.

Their ball handling, passing and scoring shots aU show a little more co-ordination than last year's. The team is still in the process of signing players for the season. There is some speculation they may pick up some from the Langley city teams, and there have been at least two players the team has met in exhibition play with Vancouver teams, who are now thinking of signing. It always takes a season or two for a team to build itself into something to reckon with. If the Dons keep up their present style of play they may surprise a few of the opposition teams when they get into league play. Matching themselves against one Vancouver A league team after another, they cannot help but gain something from the experience. There is another exhibition game scheduled for this Sunday at the Aldergrove Navy Base. Game is usually under way by one o'clock. 5 est. 1961 Aldergrove Hardware Ltd.

(3) Hardshell (rowboats,etc.) (4) 1 and 2 man cane and kayak. (5) Novelty (bathtubs, inner tubes, etc.) Trophies will be awarded to winners in all classes.

Since its introduction in 1957, the Home-owner Grant has increased steadily— from $28 that first year to a current level of $185 annually. For home-owners aged 65 years and over, it now amounts to $235, thanks to the $50 senior citizens supplement added this year. This is substantial tax relief by any standards... and it's only possible because this Government has consistently practiced sound financial management; the sort of management that provides benefits of every kind to all the people of British Columbia. On August 30th, show you support the Home-owner Grant by voting for the Government headed by Premier Bennett. Be sure... vote for your Social Credit Government candidate SPONSORED BY THE SOCIAL CREDIT CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE
