■HM legislative Library Jan 79 Parliament Bldg, Victoria, B.O, Did your taxes go down this year? around in this municipality in government cars collecting petitions. Smart asses. They can bloody well stay on their job next Monday..." Letter from Michael Robson, Dr. Bill Zwamborn, David Melnychuk, David Sands and Vic Pister, which appeared in last week's edition of the Star, has announced the intentions of the group to come before council with a delegation at 2 p.m. on Monday. June 26 "...to outline our dissatisfaction and to demand a rc-cvaluation of equal assessments." Melnychuk and Sands are civic By RUDY LANGMANN LANGLEY — Anybody out there notice that his taxes went down this year? According to Aid. Jock Lindsay this should have happened... somewhere...to someone...since the great Equalizer was rolled in last fall in the shape of the New Assessments. A number of people, not enthused about the way their property taxes have ballooned this year, have promised to stage a march on the Murrayville municipal hall, and the council- men, although reluctant to admit this fact, are waiting in trepidation. They are presently fortifying themselves by looking into mirrors and adopting suitable stern political expressions and forceful patterns of speech while they wait for the onslaught of 'Proposition 13' advocates. They tried it out this week in front of an audience of fascinated news types. Leading off, moderate Aid. Bill Blair pointed out that the old tax assessment system was "pegged to a five percent increase each year by old (W.A.C.) Bennett." And he admitted, before being forced into doing so. "...that when you get used to paying S300 (in annual property taxes) it's a heck of a shock to pay $600." The provincial government's new 15- 25.10 rule (15 percent of assessed value for residential. 25 percent for commercial, and 30 percent for industrial) was to blame, he said. Not local government. Finance expert, Aid. Art Brooks, took up the thread from there. People had been warned, he said, that it was "doubly important to check their assessments this year." Before the deadline of appeal, and now it was too late. People are apathetic, he said. They did not complain when they had the chance. Besides, the municipality actually reduced its millratc (by a miniscule amount), while "the school board jacked theirs up." In any case, "wc have not been ripping the people off." "It is unfortunate that some people's taxes go up," chimed in v Lindsay, "and then they think that everybody's do." In fact, somebody's had gone down. (Lindsay did not present any evidence to back up this statement). "And it isn't very diplomatic to tell them that they've been riding on 'thebus' and now they must pay Ihe fare." reflected Brooks. But there is a rebel in every crowd. In this case Aid. Stan Fraser: "I can show you an assessment where the owner would be very very happy to sell for the assessed value." he claimed. His bete noir remark was suitably ignored by fellow councilors. Building up to the crescendo. Mayor George Dricdiger, who up .■'''':.?<>.bu to this point had remained quiet. ■ now offered his opinion: [.,'■■■■':■■ '*' "The thing that really burns .f mc up." he led off as the '■<[ melodrama approached its climax, "is that two of these guys happen to be civil servants (waving letter from advance troop of Langley 'Proposition 13' batal- lions). They shouldn't be running No need to revolt, says finance minister servants. Fraser said it was expected, early this year that each one mill would bring $104,000 into municipal coffers. Later on the figure was adjusted to SI 10.000, but the actual amount turned out to be $113,000. "We were still fairly close," he said. The municipality assessed a total millrateof 47 for general and debt purposes and will be collecting $112-million through property taxation. The total 1978 millratc of 101.44 includes schools, hospitals, parks, municipal financing, regional district and assessment authority.. ■ QUALICUM — Finance minister Evan Wolfe said today there is no need for a property tax revolt in British Columbia. But there is a need for tax-cutting, which the B.C. government is undertaking. Property taxes average much less in B.C. than in California and the provincial government's program of restraint promises further reductions in levels of taxation over the long term. "For 2'/i years we have been stressing...and practicing...spending restraint," Wolfe said. "We arc cutting the cost of government. "British Columbia should not stand up and say, 'Let's follow California.' They should stand up and say, 'Wcare leading the way'...because we arel" Wolfe said the California initiative is a clear message to all governments to restrain expenditures. The B.C. government, he said, has a lower expenditure growth than any province in Canada, has reduced taxes by $250-million this year, and has given municipalities revenues a- mounting to 20 percent more than Inst year. , He said the California Initiative will hold property taxes at one percent of 1975 market values. Net property taxes on the average home in British Columbia today arc less than one per cent, Wolfe said. • The California property tax for sample properties now ranges between 2.1 and 3.3 percent of market value. B.C. property taxes range between .8 percent and 1.6 percent for property owners under 65 who receive the $280 homeowner grant, and between .2 percent and 1.4 percent for over 65 homeowners with the $480 grant. The finance minister said some have tried to blame overall tax increases this year on the new assessment system. He said this is nonsense. The total assessed value for single- family and duplex properties in B.C. was $4.047-billion in 1977, and $4.068-billion this year under the new system. "What the actual value assessment system did was equalize property values," Wolfe said. "It is the local government budget requirements that increase or decrease taxes overall...not the assessment system. "What our new assessment system did was ensure that all property owners pay a fair share of whatever taxation Is levied."

Slo-Pitch title ALDERGROVE — Construction Royals hosted their first B.C. slo-pitch championship this weekend and won their third successive B.C. crown. In what was the most successful B.C. slo-pitch .' tournament ever, the Royals also proved their superiority. The Royals won four straight games: 17 to 4 over Aldergrove O.K. Tire on Saturday morning, 3 to 2 against Dionne Excavating late Saturday afternoon, 19 to 1 over Burnaby Bullets early Sunday afternoon and 6 to 0 versus Occidental Life in the final contest Sunday at 5:00. In their most impressive display ever, the Royals offensively pounded the opposition for 45 runs, while 'superior defense allowed only seven runs against in the four games and a shut-out performance in the final pitched by Brian Albertson. The most valuable player - offense was awarded to the Royal's right-center fielder, Ron Gass, who hit eight for 12 for a .667 baiting average. The MVP - defense went to Occidental's left fielder Rudy Paxion who played errorless ball on the weekend. The MVP - all tournament was presented to Al Sorensen of Aldergrove Construction who also hit .667 (10 for 15) and was sparkling in the field as he robbed several batters of apparent base- hits.

This is the Royals' third trip to the Western finals and Occidental's first. Also, this is the second year in succession that the M.S.A. league has sent MURRAYVILLE - The Langley school board postponed a liaison meeting with Langley Teachers' Association representatives Monday after a heated confrontation at the board's regular meeting in Brookswood involving several school trustees and LTA president Terry Eastman. Eastman, making his first address to the school board after repeated invitations to speak, accused the trustees of engaging in vilification and attack against himself and the LTA. Dr. Fred Cercsney, vice chairman of the board replied by accusing Eastman of bargaining in bad faith in previous disputes with the board, and challenged him to take action for better relations between the trustees and the teachers. School trustee Peter Fassbender accused both sides of fostering a climate of rumor and innuendo in an emotional statement punctuated by applause from a large crowd gathered in the Brookswood junior secondary school cafeteria. The problems began after Fassbender presented a plan to establish a liaison committee involving school trustees, senior administrators, and LTA representatives. The district superintendent, directors of elementary and secondary instruction, and the secretary treasurer of the district would have joined two trustees and two LTA representatives under the provisions of Fassbender's motion. The committee would have met prior to June 30 to determine a timetable and format for further meetings, the first to be held by mid-September. Minutes of the meetings would be signed by all parties present and distributed to the media. Fassbender said the signed minutes would help avoid accusations of biased reporting and bad faith that led to the disbanding of a joint planning committee in January. No sooner had the motion been seconded than school trustee David Bell introduced a tabling motion that passed by a vote of 4 - 2. with Fassbender and school trustee Kaye Armstrong opposed. With the tabling motion passed to a chorus of catcalls and boos from the audience, school board chairman Brian Westwood invited LTA president Terry Eastman to speak. Eastman presented a list of demands adopted by the LTA's annual general meeting Monday afternoon dealing with the transfer of six elementary school principals and several elementary school teachers without their consent last week. He accused the trustees of creating the present impasse in September last year, when the school district bargaining com: mittee refused to consider the question of due process in teacher transfers during contract negotiations. "It seems you have not always respected our dedication to the task at hand," said Eastman. "Some of you have in the past accused our members of misrepresentation, a polite term for dishonesty and worse." He said both trustees and teachers can no longer afford to operate in the present atmosphere. "1 myself have been accused of being a radical," he added, "a troublemaker, and at one point, two of your members attempted to have me fired for insubordination." He suggested the school board team up with the teachers for better education. "There is much that we agree upon," he said. "There is much that we agree upon; the need for instruction in the basics, the necessity of parental involvement, and more. We ask only that you hear us out." Ceresncy, taking umbrage at loud applause for the LTA president, told the meeting he was shocked by Eastman's recent statements in a local newspaper after repeated efforts to arrange a liaison with the school board. "1 couldn't believe my eyes and cars from what I saw and read," said Cercsney. Among the items in the news story Cercsney objected to was a statement by Eastman that "the nature and absurdity of the. charges levelled against us suggest that the board 'Teachers' page 2 all listed in publication By GREG THOMAS The job of high school principal a thankless task, you say? Not exactly. Whatever their hardships, local administrators receive a substantial reward for their troubles, even more than the school district's senior administration in some cases. Tops among Langley principals in wages earned last year was Norm A. Sherritt. vet;ran local teacher and administrator at Aldergrove secondary school. Sherritt made $34,818.98 in 1977, a salary that will be affected by the six percent wage settlement handed to all local educators earlier this year by an arbitration board. Only Sherritt's direct superior, Harry Cullis, director of secondary instruction, made more last year, $35,561.82. The figures were contained in the 1977 public accounts records of the Langley school district, released Monday by school trustee Loren Maluor- no. chairman of the district's finance committee. Contained within are the salaries of every school district employee, and any expenses they claimed in fiscal 1977.

All school trustees were paid the proscribed $2,000 wage in 1977 according to the Public Schools' Act, except for former trustee Dr. H.A. Anderson, who resigned before completing his term of office. Langley city trustee Peter Fassbender boasted the largest expense account among the trustees, $1,461.60. followed by Aldergrove trustee Loren Maluorno ($874.39). Kaye Armstrong ($576.07). Brian Westwood ($504.). Anderson ($381.), former Aldergrove trustee Ed Klassen ($243.06). Marni Robertson ($100.). and Dr. Fred Cercsney ($100.).

WEST LANGLEY FIRE School evacuated in orderly fashion FORT LANGLEY - Students from West Langley elementary school arc taking an early vacation today as a result of the fire that ravaged the entire wood frame structure with the exception of the school gymnasium Monday morning. Dr. Lcn Sampson, district superintendent, says arrangements arc being made to find a home for West Langley classes, as insurance adjusters trample their way through the charred remains of the school building to determine a cause for the blaze. The fire broke out about 9:45 Monday morning in a vacant classroom, once used for kindergarten. It was first noticed by a grade one student, Lori Viani, who told her teacher. The fire alarm was sounded, and 155 students were evacuated from the building without incident. pictures page 8A "The entire staff of West Langley elementary school behaved in magnificent fashion throughout the whole drama," said Sampson. "The school was cleared quickly and without incident largely because of the very efficient and methodical fire drills that have always been undertaken at this school." Students returned to the school site Tuesday to pick up bicycles left behind when the fire started, but no one was permitted to venture onto the school site to retrieve any other property. The school's principal and staff will meet every morning for the remainder of this week to sort out the problems created by the fire. No announcement on a new location for the West Langley school has been made. "The parents, and indeed the entire school community of West Langley have really rallied a- round," said Sampson. "They've been most helpful and accommodating both to the students and staff in this disaster.

Cercsney said the board had often tried to establish good relations. He cited seven unsuccessful attempts to get together with Eastman. • Early in 1978. the board repeatedly offered to discuss any issue at any of its meetings during delegation period. "Invariably." remarked Cercsney. "Mr. Eastman personally attended these meeting but never spoke." • Early in May. Cercsney wrote to Eastman and arranged a dinner date with the LTA president, Dave McClean, LTA past president; and Walt Hennig. a member of the LTA executive. The meeting was held at La Masia restaurant May 12. "Although 1 had not objected to meeting with all three teacher union members, they objected to my taping the conversation on the grounds that it would inhibit the nature of the talks." said Cercsney. - • On May 29, having heard "nothing from Eastman since the dinner. Cercsney phoned Eastman to set up another meeting. " "He explained that he was all booked up," said Cercsney. "He had no time to meet with me. He resisted any suggestion of a definite future date, and made no offer to meet me in the near future." ■ • On Friday. June 9, Cercsney wrote Eastman a letter suggesting another meeting. The letter was typed at the Langley school board office, where Eastman read it prior lo mailing No reply was forthcoming. - • On June 15, Cercsney questioned Eastman about his remarks in the newspaper story. "He demurred, saying that he didn't remember what he had said," concluded the disgruntled trustee. T "Let's get some action, instead of talk, Terry," yelled Cercsney across the crowded cafeteria to Eastman. ... Fassbender. who objected to the tabling of his original motion, responded to Cercsney's statement with a collection of invective -that stirred more applause from the audience. * "The tabling of my motion demonstrated to me how willing this board is to'see that action takes place," said Fassbender. He suggested taking the meet- ings from local restaurants to the public forum. "It's the only way we're going 10 kill it." said Fassbender.

I ran to do a job, not play politics." ' Bell, who suggested tabling Fassbender's motion, concluded the encounter by proposing it be reconsidered at the next meeting of the school board. Copies of the motion were distributed to trustees just before the meeting rather than four days prior to the meeting, the general practice with most school board business. "Mr. Fassbender is fully aware that that is the principle this board operates on," Bell said. He scorned a statement by Eastman that the trustees and senior administrators can't run the school district without help from rank and file teachers. "Who is running this district anyhow?" he asked. "The trustees and the administrators or the teachers' union? If you want a union running the school system, then go ahead and vote that way in the next election." The LTA voted Monday to make the presidency a full time salaried position as a result of the workload the past year's hostilities have placed on Eastman. The membership also approved a large increase in annual LTA membership dues, from $50 to S70 per annum. Membership in the local association is mandatory for all working teachers. Clifton advocates liappy marriage' between community and developer ALDERGROVE - North County Line Residents' Association director John Clifton charged on Friday that Ainslie Loretto, spokes-person for Gloucester Properties, is "trying to set up the residents of this area." His statement followed the publication of a letter to council from Loretto last week that sought to answer questions raised at the last NCLRA meeting. "Rather than direct her attention to the issues, Mrs. Loretto chose to attack me personally and the residents indirectly. She's trying to lay a case that we're biased against her proposal and that anything we have to say in the future should be discounted. Well, it won't work. We'll consider her project on its merits and that's that," he declared. "Mrs. Loretto has taken a highhanded attitude with us for no good reason. We have not as yet taken any position for or against her project. We have acted responsibly in seeking to gather as much information as possible." he added. Clifton said that he deplored what he termed the 'cut and thrust' style of the Gloucester properties representative. "Mrs. Loretto made a number of statements about me which are simply not true' She claims that I am 'not interested in any additional municipal facilities unless they are for the North County Line area.' This is an outright lie and she knows it. She declared that I expressed a lack of interest in her project's potential benefits. Another lie. On and on she goes." Clifton noted that one statement about his taxes is true, but took issue with Loretto's contention that 'the assessor must have missed him.' "I live in a,fifteen-year-old, 796 square foot home — sure I pay taxes of around $200 net this year, but believe me, I'd be glad to trade tax bills with her if she'd be willing to trade houses at the same time," he said. He also disputed that Loretto had explained the pollution control laws to him. "It's baloney for her to say that she explained the law to me. I doubt seriously if she has any expertise in that area at all. For some reason, she seems to think that the residents of this area should just accept as valid anything she says. That's absurd, and if she takes that attitude with council, they might just cut her Michael Olcnluk gives his pet police horse, Lancer, a special RIOT TRAINED HORSE treat of mid-day snack of grain. The horse Is retired in the Olcniuk's Dve acre pasture. Lancer out to pasture, after years of service ALDERGROVE — There arc a lot of horses in the Aldergrove area but there arc not many that arc riot trained. In fact, we feel pretty safe saying there is probably only one. That one horse is Lancer, a retired Vancouver police horse which is now out to pasture in a five acre field on 256 Street. Michael and Jcanncttc Oleniuk bought Lancer from their next door neighbor, Marjoric White, when the latter was moving away and didn't know what to do with the big old horse. At that time, the couple had a daughter living. at home, and she used to let her friends ride the Anglo-Arab while she rode her own horse. "As far as we know he is about 28 to 31 years old," explains Michael. The horse was originally owned by a Mr. Douglas who lived in the Aldergrove area and was himself a policeman. The Oleniuks feel he may have been the officer who rode Lancer in police service. Douglas sold the horse to Marjorie White and White, as we explained, later sold it to the Oleniuks.

Elford Nundal. is a low-handed and unwarranted attack upon politicians on the low rung of the ladder. "I would like him (Bennett) to tell us where we have any say," Nundal said, adding that since "...assessments now arc out of our hands" it is really the provincial government's ball game. Nundal said he didn't much like the idea of "us sitting here as whipping boys" for the senior government. He suggested a municipal newsletter and a scries of public meetings which could "direct people to the assessment authorities," the real culprits according to the alderman. The provincial assessment department "with local offices in Clearbrook determines the value of real property, and working from the total sum of these figures within a community the local municipal council and school board set the mill rates. The two set of figures, one set by the provincial authority and the other by civic government, between them determine the amount of taxes to be paid by everyone. have him and he docs nothing," says Michael. Lancer no longer takes the kids for rides as he did when he was younger, as his age has earned him the right to a peaceful retirement. Inspite of his years, however, Lancer retains a fine (if greying) coat and seems to be in good health. He shares his pasture with a lone cow and her young calf, and has a large barn entirely to himself in the evenings. He does allow the family dog to keep him company through the night, however. "A woman drove up here one time and she stopped and she called him and he went up to her. I asked her if she knew this horse and she said '1 rode him in the PNE for three years'; this is just what we get from people that know the horse," Michael reveals. Lancer certainly has some police horse habits that have stayed with him through the years. To begin with he has a habit of stepping sideways out of people's way, rather than trampling them, and he also is very placid with children and other animals around his feet. The calf in his pasture often lays down at his feet, and Lancer never steps on the young animal. Once, a dog even bit his leg, and all the horse did was evade the bothersome creature with some Stanley Park, city-slicker footwork. In short there isn't a violent bone in his body. Mounted police constable J. Fcnimore of the Stanley Park squad told The Star Tuesday that Lancer would probably have been in service in the late Forties or early Fifties. He said the docile manner of the horse is probably part of his natural temperament, as not all police horses are that easy going. It depends, according to Fcnimore. on the spirit of the animal. Horses have been in service in the Vancouver police department since 1912. Today there are nine horses in service in Stoniey Park. off at the knees." Clifton said that he wasn't personally 'pro' or 'con' on the development. He stated that he had reserved judgment on the issue as have many of the residents. "If the residents of this area make up their minds to support her plan, she'll have my support as well. I don't care what she says about me personally or about the people of this area. I want what's best for Langley and if her plan has merit, let's get on with it," he declared. Clifton noted ' that he had received a letter from Loretto • asking him to plarify his remarks on two specific points in his letter to council. "When I mentioned 'residential park' I was referring to the likes of Aldergrove Park and when I said that we had learned that she had planned a 'shopping complex', as opposed to a shopping centre, I was referring to a small number of retail businesses. If she has no such plan, then I stand corrected," he said. Aid. Art Brooks and council deserve praise according to Clifton for their involvement to date. "They have cooperated with the NCLRA from the beginning and, last week, when the possible pollution of West Creek became an issue, Brooks took quick action. You couldn't ask for more from council." Clifton concluded his comments with a little advice for Loretto. "Stick to the issues and avoid personalities. If your project has all the advantages you claim, it would be a shame to sec it go down the drain in a scries of confrontations with residents. We need development in Langley that will enhance the tax base, as you have pointed out. Maybe we can make it a happy marriage," he said. Ainslie Loretto, contacted at her home Tuesday night refused to make further remarks to Clifton's charges. "I consider it to be unworthy of comments," she stated. Supply centre opens business days ALDERGROVE — Canadian Mainland Office Supplies, a relatively new business in the Aldergrove area, fills a retail gap which was costly to local business people. The store, located in the Watt and Butcher building on the east side, is stocked to fill the office supply needs of local merchants and office workers. For a short while in Aldergrove the ever expanding business community was without an office supply outlet, meaning the nearest place one could go to buy a new typewriter or ledger book was Langley city or Abbotsford. The opening of Canadian Mainland Office Supplies returned the convenience and economy of local shopping to the office supply market. The storefront carries a number of highly serviceable product lines, including Papermate, Peerless and Apsco. Items net in stock can usually be ordered for speedy delivery or pick up at the store. One of the most innovative features of Canadian Mainland's trade, however, is its opening hours. Most business offices operate Monday through Friday while local stores arc generally open Tuesday through Saturday. By tailoring their hours to the office worker, Canadian Mainland is able to deliver supply services to both the administrator and the retailer.

The Langley detachment of the RCMP also reports three other fires last week in the area of the new Dominion Shopping Complex In Langley.

The district chief also looks after general traffic patrols for the entire detachment. He will be directly responsible to the inspector of the detachment who will be appointed soon. The present inspector, John Gal- braith, will be leaving the detachment in the very near future. Janzen has been on the force for 18 and a half years, starting his career in Haney. He is married with three children. His first posting was Haney where he spent six and a half years, then four years in Dawson Creek followed by another four years lecturing in the RCMP training centre at Regina. His next stint was in Fort St. James and finally his posting into ALDERGROVE ■ The first annual Aldergrove Days celebration, a weekend of fun and frivolity, was very well accepted by local residents this weekend as hundreds came out to participate in and watch a variety of events. Friday kicked the celebration off with beer gardens opening at two locations serving unlimited quantities of American foam. Square dancers drew a large crowd in the Aldergrove Centre Mall. Saturday morning brought hundreds out to witness a parade through the centre of town. Over thirty entries were counted in the parade with winners presented in four categories. Best local floats were Langley City. A-l Glass Shop and the Aldergrove Thrift Store. Best Commercial Entries included the Royal Bank, Aldergrove Pholo House and the Aldergrove Library while in the bands both the St. Mary's Residential School Band and Burnaby Girls Pipe Band took honors. Best Equine entries were Millie Mclvanicc, 1WA Credit Union and a mule team driven by Art Shannon. Other events capping off the weekend included a slo-pitch tournament in the Aldergrove Ball Park and a "Comon Ride" around the borders of Aldergrove. The common ride is a tradition set in Britain in the olde days, when landowners would ride around their property with their employees to let the public see where the borders of their estates were. Merchants along the main street placed displays on the sidewalk during the weekend and a steak dinner and dance at CFS Aldergrove was attended by over 400 people. Barbecue was a tittle slow in getting ready, however nobody seemed to suffer, they were very ably entertained by the very versatile show band The "Sunburst", who kept everybody going till the wee hours of the morning. At the Roundhouse Saturday night a crowd of people preferred to swing to the Bavarian Band and enjoy the Shueplattcrn taking place there while they all played "Eins. Zwei, G'zupa. Ideas arc already floating a- round amongst the organizers of this years celebrations, as to how next year's Aldergrove Days might be beefed up even more. Don't call ^councilors say ALDERGROVE — It will be absolutely useless for organizers of the West Point Grey cycling club lo apply to municipal officials for pcrnii.ssion to stage a bicycle race in the North County Line area, or in any other community within Langley district for that matter, in 1979. Municipal councilors will not have it. The pedalling cyclists were described as "a nuisance, damn messy, and with no concern for local residents", by Mayor George Dricdiger this week. Following last Sunday's race at County Line, Dricdiger described "the whole thing a public nuisance." He said one of the conditions set down by council when permission was given this year, was that portable washrooms be set up along the route. It wasn't done, he said, and consequently bicycle riders knocked on the doors of residents along the route asking for permission to use their facilities. Dricdiger also complained a- bout the event which he said was "sponsored by the big bike companies in Vancouver," and claimed that parking in the area would have blocked fire fighting equipment from access if it had been needed. Aid. Stan Fraser said he preferred "...frankly a little stronger" measures be taken than just deciding that there would be no repeat performances. "We should tell them: Don't even bother applying next year." he said. It was ruled accordingly. Langley. interuptcd only for a brief eight-month period at Vancouver International Airport. At Regina he lectured mainly in criminal law. with a few other subjects thrown in. Langley is the largest detachment is has so far served in, in terms of manpower, with the exception of the Regina training centre. By IAN CAMERON MURRAYVILLE — There were lots of giggles and badly surpassed mirth at municipal council this week as mayor and aldermen reviewed the case of a missing building permit. Tony West, of 2913 - 267B Street, councilmen were told, had failed to take out a building permit before he began the construction of his new carport. Councilmen snickered and offered suggestions as to how to get back at the bylaw transgressor. West, as it happens, is the provincial health inspector in the area. In this position, it is West's responsibility to see that health regulations arc strictly adhered to and part of his job is to look after the issuance of and compliance with septic refusal system permits. And that's where he and Langley district councilors often have been at odds. More often than not they have accused him and his department of being too strict. "Are you telling us he has built a carport without securing a permit?" Aid. Elford Nundal questioned in mock concern and with undisguised delight. "We'll tell him what to do to correct the situation and then we'll turn him down and tell him what else to do and then we'll turn him down again." offered Aid. Jock Lindsay, mentally rubbing his hands. "Oh, I'm sure this was merely an oversight on the part of Mr. West." said Mayor George Dricdiger, equally delighted. In the end. however, councilors decided to have mercy upon West and grant him his permit and dispensation from a 25-foot setback rule. The West carport was reported by building inspector Pete Jarvis to be only 17 feet nine inches from the flanking street. Explaining the case to council. Jarvis said that the house originally was built without a carport or garage and "...was poorly located on the lot in such a manner as to leave insufficient room...for this necessary addition." Jarvis said the reduced setback did not create a nuisance to neighbors and no restricted traffic vision at the corner of 29 Avenue and 267B Street. He also reported that a proposed zoning bylaw would reduce the required front yard ruling from 25 to 15 feet, and recommended acceptance of the carport as it now stands. West had applied for council's belated approval in order to enable re-mortgaging of the property.

John Murchie, the owner of 74 acres near the Canada-U.S. boundary, returned to council this week to push for one of his two proposals: that government either take over the property for a park, or allow him to subdivide into five-acre lots. The Murchie property is a well- known gathering spot for young people of the area and has on a number of occasions seen clashes between teenagers and the local RCMP. A man-made lake on the property is what attracts the youngsters. Murchie told council this week that he is willing to "accept anything", but wants council to act before there are any drownings reported in the lake. He also told councilmen that according to three solicitors he has retained; he possesses enough material to take his case before the supreme court if council doesn't come through with a solution as to what he can do with his land. He expressed some concern that council's tabling of the question for one week could result in it "going on from meeting to meeting."

The Aldergrove Star 4A WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 1978 California, here we come By RUDY LANGMANN There Is no need for a property tax revolt in B.C., finance minister Evan Wolfe told a group of people In Qualicum last week. Well, really, what else would you have expected for Mr. Wolfe to say? Stunned by the success of the Jarvis-Gann amendment In California, Mr. Wolfe only took six days to recover his wits and shoot back with assurances that what Proposition 13 stands for he and his government have been working for for the past two and a half years. Completely without coaxing "we are cutting the cost of government," he claims. We should all walk forth and sing hosannahs to the great Socred genius of finance, he claims, spreading palm leaves along the way while we chant that we as British Columbians "are leading the way...because we are." That, we think, is a somewhat ambigious statement; definitely one subject to scrutiny. We have become so accustomed to the panegyrics of Mr. Wolfe and his cabinet colleagues that we almost become believers. That is, until a Jarvis-Gann shakes us out of our lethargic state. And then we start searching for the real truth. Did the Social Credit government in fact practise the restraint they have been preaching for the past two and a half years? Like Ihe old Social Credit government (1952 to 1972) they have this thing about 'balanced budgets', which Is fine. Nobody; no housewife, no small business or no corporation can survive for long without balancing their budgets. We are all in favor of that. The difference between these and the government, • however, is in the approach. If a homemaker could not make ends meet on husband's and own incomes but had access to some bottomless charge account (where she did not have to worry about repayment...uncle Charlie would take care of that) we feel reasonably sure that she and her family could have an absolutely grand time and still balance the books. The same goes for any business enterprise. Unfortunately, however, this method of debit financing is limited strictly to governments, and our present Social Credit one has made widespread use of this principle. If you do not have enough finances available, why then there are two options available. One is to print more money (limited to the feds) more commonly known as borrowing (widely used by the provincials) or two, to introduce more open or hidden taxation. At this they are absolutely unsurpassed. Has Mr. Wolfe and his colleagues indeed practised what they have been preaching as far as spending restraint Is concerned? We do not think so. One of their greatest criticisms of the Dave Barrett NDP government (1972 to 1975) was the number of new civil servants hired during this period. Since 1975, however, the bureaucracy has swelled enormously under the Social Credits. They do not like to talk about this, but the figures are there to prove the point. What else has the Bill Bennett government been doing? : Cutting services and raising taxes is what. But granted, apart from the occasional little departmental budget overrun, they have been balancing the books. Mr. Wolfe also tries to convince us that we are better off than our brother and sister taxpayers in the Golden State. Neither does this statement bear any semblance to the facts. Let us analyze: Our provincial finance minister says California property taxes now range between 2.1 and 3.3 percent of market values. The majority, indeed, Is within this category as surveys show taxes there have in some cases doubled within the past couple of years. Under Jarvis-Gann they will be limited to 1 percent of actual value. In contrast, Mr. Wolfe claims, B.C. property taxes range between .8 and 1.6 percent for property owners under 65 and between .2 percent and 1.4 percent for those over retirement age. Mr. Wolfe, the book keeper, is used to juggling figures, and must have applied his skill in this case. We have yet to meet anyone in Langley, Matsqui or indeed the entire lower mainland whose 1978 taxes fall below the Jarvis-Gann maximum limit. They are indeed much higher and approaching the levels which finally drove the silent majority in California to call a continent-wide and trend-setting revolt. The average taxpayer's bill here in the Fraser Valley will cost him about $1,000. The average newer type home of 1,000 lo 1,200 square feel costs the consumer in the neighborhood ol $50,000 and in many cases resells for less. One thousand dollars, according to elementary highschool math, equals 2 percent of $50,000. In spite ol Mr. Wolfe's assurances, we feel there is room for a Jarvis-Gann movement in British Columbia. Politicians shudder, as well they should Proposition 13 in Langley? We might not see a proposal on any referendum ballot to have property taxes rolled back to 1975 levels, despite recent activities in California. But il was delightful last week to see municipal, state and provincial politicians from Newfoundland to Arizona shudder al the implications of the California taxpayers revolt. Since the Jarvis Proposition passed in a landslide referendum vote the eyes of all North Americans have been on the Golden Stale. And no wonder. It was as if the final straw had been reached not only by beleagured California home owners but by property owners everywhere. The politicians should be brought to heel with the knowledge they are approaching the bottom of the taxpayer's pocket with their escalating property taxes. Granted, California leads the continent In property taxation, but politicians In the lower mainland have no cause to leel smug. In Surrey it now costs $1,000 a year to keep a newer 1,250 square foot home solvent with the assessment authorities. On the north shore, It's been more than that for years. Kerrisdale and the western portions of Vancouver have one of the highest tax rolls In the country and Richmond and Langley have been on a steady rise in recent years. Who is to blame for the increases? Who knows? Municipal politicians on one side, Hugh Curtis along with Premier Bill Bennett on the other side, can't decide. Few taxpayers — digging deeper than ever this year — are willing to listen. True, a Proposition 13 is not likely to happen here, but politicians should heed the warning rumbles and instead of taxing the shirt off people's back should find a way to help homeowners struggling under the burden of $50,000 mortga- Oh, what is so bare as a dame in June? —Old proverb *** People used to send edibles to their country editors. I've been thinking, how nice it would be if someone started the custom of sending same to small town columnists. »»« Jock McTavish, the poet laureate of Bradner, came to town the other day to have lunch with The Editor. "This Jock fellow is pretty smart," said The Editor, "because he changed a regular meeting into a lunch — and I have been told that intelligent people interview people over a meal because that way they can get a better opinion of the guy they are interviewing." • ** What has happened at the lunch between McTavish and The Editor remains unreported, but it had to be hilarious, for lunch with McTavish with anybody, anyplace, is a humorous uproar. Some people have called food the sex of the middle aged, so perhaps it is in the case of the two reprobates, but on the other hand some old duffers 1 know claim it is just the reverse. Cyril Connolly once wrote a story called, "Shade those Laurels," and in it one of the characters said: "They say that food is a substitute for love. Well, it's certainly a bloody good one." *** All of which caused us to read again an essay in a recent issue of American Scholar, written by some delightful person nom-de- plumed Aristldes. After pointing out the connection between food and sex, Aristidcs writes: "No one who has seen the film Tom Jones can altogether forget that succulent feast in which food was made a form of foreplay to sex itself. Commonplace it is to suggest that food is often a substitute for sex — and wrong as well as commonplace when one considers the great number of people passionately devoted to both." »** K. C. Chang, editor of a recent volume entitled, Food in the The Christian Science Monitor The best of advice My advice to the person suffering from lack of time and from apathy is this: Seek out each day as many as possible of the small joys, and thriftily save up the larger, more demanding, pleasures for holidays and appropriate hours. It is the small joys first of all that are granted us for recreation, for daily relief and disburdenment, not the great ones. Hermann Hesse Rich and getting richer — all the way to thepoorhouse By ARTHUR HOPPE Every homeowner 1 know is awed and delighted by the soaring values of houses in recent years. Never have so many in such a short time realized The Great American Dream of achieving fabulous wealth without doing a lick of work. You can't go to a cocktail party without the conversation getting around to who bought what for how much when and — wow! — do you know what that's worth todav? «** One of the happiest homeowners 1 know is my rich cousin, Granville. Granville wasn't always rich. In fact, his wife, Betty, and he used to have trouble making ends meet. Then, back in 1963, they became the last small investors to make a killing in the stock market. They used every penny of their gains — $60,000 — to buy a house. And do you know what that house is worth today? You would if you ever ran into Granville. "Would you believe we were just offered $250,000 for it?" demanded Granville at our recent family picnic. "No!" I said cooperatively. "Yes!" he cried, looking so happy I thought he'd choke. But that was just wishful thinking. "You arc looking," he said, "at a quarter of a millionaire." "So you sold the house?" I asked. He frowned. "Well, Betty and I talked it over. We even checked out a couple of other places to buy. But the prices they wanted for them were out of sight! I mean if we sold our house for a quarter of a million we'd have to pay at least a quarter of a million for something comparable — plus real estate commissions, closing costs, moving expenses..." "So you couldn't afford to buy a house like yours these days," I said, "and you, a quarter of a millionaire." »«» Granville shrugged. "Who could?" he said. "We thought of selling and just pocketing the money. But if we don't buy another house, we'll have to pay the Government exhorbitant tax- ex on our profit of $190,000. And even with what was left, we couldn't afford to rent a house like ours. Rents have gone sky high." "So you can't afford to sell your house," I said. "At least, now that you're a quarter of a millionaire, you don't have to worry any more about making ends meet." "That's right," he said glumly. "There's no possible way we can. Because the house quadrupled in value, so did the assessed valuation and so did the property taxes. It's cold mashed potato sandwiches seven nights a week for Betty and me." "But Granville," I said, "you're a rich man." "And if I get any richer." he said, "I'll be in the poorhousc." *** Poor rich Cousin Granville. Now that he's a quarter of a millionaire, he can't afford to sell his house unless he buys another house he can't afford and he can't afford the taxes on either. "But some day I'll be rich because I've figured out the only way to beat the system," he said, a mad gleam in his eye. "How?" I asked. "Die," he said. How far will California tax revolt spread? By JUDITH FRUTIG LOS ANGELES - "Enough!" California property owners told state tax assessors, and like a political prairie fire, the landslide acceptance of Proposition 1.1 — tax relief initiative on the June 6 primary that chops state property taxes by roughly 60 percent — may ignite a national taxpayers revolt. The echoes of frustration skimmed across the country, helping upset four-term New Jersey Sen. Clifford Case. He was defeated by a youthful conservative who campaigned in favor of a 30 percent federal income tax cut. Voters denied a $350-million bond to Los Angeles schools. And in Cleveland, balloters turned thumbs down on a tax increase to help fund Ohio's largest school district. "This is just the beginning." a jubilant Howard Jarvis said in Los Angeles. Jarvis is co-author of the California tax relief initiative and chief spokesman for the Yes on Proposition 13 Committee. "We're sending a message to the rest of the country," he said. "The dominos are beginning to fail. The tax revolt has begun." "The future course of local government throughout the United States could be altered radically by California's tax rebellion at the ballot box." warned Alan Beals, executive director of the National League of Cities in Washington. D.C. The furor over California's proposition — which won by a whopping two-to-one margin, soundly defeating its rival amendment to rcduct private property taxes by 30 percent — is considered a sure bet to spark demands for wholesale property tax cuts in other regions of the country. Lewis K. Uhler, president of the National Tax Limitation Committee, said that tax limitation efforts are already under way in 25 other states and in Congress. Other states in which petitions arc being circulated include Nebraska. Colorado, Michigan, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania. In Arizona, a petition drive to launch a Jarvis-like initiative is scheduled to begin next week. Still, a number of state and local officials interviewed by this newspaper say they believe the real impact from the California ballot-box tax revolt will come through budget limitations imposed to place a ceiling on government spending — but not necessarily including the draco- nian kinds of cutbacks voted into law by California. If these reactions, supported by the opinions of taxpayer relief organizations forming in other states and bolstered by alarmed legislators and public officials, arc right, the next battlegrounds in the war against high taxes will be Massachusetts, Oregon, and Colorado. In Massachusetts — where tax-weary residents have taken to calling the commonwealth "Taxa- chusetts" — a joint session of the two houses of the legislature is scheduled for June 21 to consider a constitutional amendment. The amendment would clamp a ceiling on state spending by limiting state revenue to a fixed percentage of the gross per capita income. Under the formula, any revenue collected by that state exceeding that figure would be returned to taxpayers, either as a rebate or as a credit on taxes for the following year. In Oregon, a group of rebellious taxpayers is passing petitions in 70 cities to place a Jarvis-like measure on the November ballot. So far, they have 20,000 signatures in hand with a 61,000 minimum to collect by the July 7 deadline. The amendment calls for a 1 Vi percent tax limit on the market value of a house, roll back assessments to 1975 levels, and allow a maximum 2 percent annual tax increase. The group has invited Jarvis and Paul Gann. co-authors of the California measure, to help them campaign. "The California landslide will easily make us a household proposition." said organizer James Wittenberg. "There's no doubt in my mind." In Colorado, the Colorado Union of Taxpayers is circulating a petition calling for an initiative ,on the November ballot that would place an index on state spending. The index would be keyed to the state's growth rate, a measure that is already supposed to be in effect. But last year, the Colorado legislature passed a 7 percent ceiling on the rate state spending could grow. Money coming in that exceeded an established amount was to be earmarked for an emergency fund. Anything over "How" page 5 Chinese Culture, argues that "these two activities are quite different. We are, 1 believe, much closer to our animal base in our sexual endeavors than in our eating habits. Too, the range of variations is indefinitely wider in food than in sex." Aristidcs assures us, furthermore, that "Literally, reading about food is more interesting than reading about sex," which should make our Borderline Gourmet, Gary Chambers, happy indeed. "How delightful it is," writes Aristidcs, "to hear someone describe a magnificent meal, or comical to hear a botched one described, whereas listening to the same person describe a seduction is almost invariably boring, if not repulsive. Perhaps the reason for this is that eating is more the social function, sex the more personal, and as such eating shows people in greater multiplicity of poses, moods, and characters than does sex...there is more going on at the table than in bed." »#* Brillat-Savarln." advocate and gastronome extraordinaire of France, is famous for his dictum: "Animals feed; man eats. Only the superior man knows how to cat." Amen to that. *** Newspapermen used to be noted for their ability to eat, as well as drink. James Gordon Bennett, owner of the New York Herald, was unable one afternoon to get his favorite table at Monte Carlo. To expedite matters, he simply bought the place (for a reported $40,000), removed the customers from his accustomed table, finished his lunch of mutton chops, and presented the waiter with the deed to the restaurant as a tip. • ** Wc don't make newspapermen like that anymore, or, for that matter, do we make North Americans any longer of that mold. The best newsman writing about food in recent decades was A.J. Llebllng. Licbling was built a lot like King Farouk, which might explain why he once observed, "The primary requisite for writing about food is a good appetite." Some of Liebling's writing about food and drink have become famous, such as his observation: "If a wine isn't good it doesn't go with anything and if it is, it can go in any company." ** * Some of Liebling's tips are: Fifty seats is the maximum for a good restaurant; Greeks, Armenians and Turks do best with rice, and he once told his doctors that it was their job to "facilitate gluttony, not discourage it." Licbling is also famous for a dictum he passed on for determining which were the best restaurants when you have no guide or other means of telling. *** Licbling insisted the best restaurant was one where "you see priests eating with priests, or sporting girls with sporting girls."

The Star, Sir, In regard to taxes in Langley it is time for home owners not only to say enough but also time for a roll back. Where are these high- pitch computers that come up with .03% raises in costs to consumers when the increase is 25 to 35% Why not use the same computer to arrive at a mill rate. 1 will give you some figures as to taxes in Langley. then ask the block heads at municipal hall to ask themselves why wc are opposed to any further development. Because instead of having more people sharing costs it is for ever costing more, (or do we pay for more people and development to come in?) I came into Langley in 1974 and have seen people move in by the 100s and am sure they arc all paying taxes. 1974 net tax value $6647. total mills 69.36. gross tax $609.63. 1975 net tax value $6678., total mills 74.36, gross tax $774.29, 1976 net tax value $6978., total mills 92.92, gross tax $836.82. 1977 net tax value $6978., total mills 95.98. gross tax $931.43, and 1978 net tax value $7680., total mills 98.05, gross tax $1033.66. This is a tax increase in five years of $424.03. Oh yes. less home owners grant, but don't forget wc pay that too, only that is stolen from us but wc cannot catch the thieves. 1974 H.O.G. $230. balance $379.63. 1975 H.O.G. $244.35 balance529.94. 1976 H.O.G. $280. balance $556.82. 1977 H.O.G. $280. balance $651.43. 1978 H.O.G. $280. balance $753.66. In five years an increase of $374.03 or % that is $62.80 per month taxes, the figures on my cheque have been getting smaller; if they would have doubled I would not be writing this letter but would say so what, and go fishing. I was told by good authority that with the new assessment our municipal fathers could have very nicely set the total mill rate at 88 and had money left but they would not hear of it. 1 must ask just what have they in mind for the money the extra 10.05 mills will bring, a new hall again, or maybe a fancy swimming pool for the privileged? The time is past due for some action to stop the increased tax on the home owner. Yours truly, Teddic Hansen 26936 - 28A Avenue Aldergrove, B.C. Letters To The Editor Primary letter grades do not allow for individual growth ' Editor, The Star, Sir, On Wednesday, June 14, parents of Langley elementary school children received via their schools a Primary or Intermediate Report Card Survey. Parents were asked to return the completed survey to their school office two days later on June 16. It seems to us that if the current Letters welcome We encourage and welcome Lctters-to-the- Editor as a community forum (or readers' opinion. We reserve the right to edit letters to maintain standards of brevity, good taate, and legality, regardless of political content. You nay use a Mm-dcrphnte, bat anleas accompanied by year name, address and telephone number, an- . signed letters will not be report card is truly as valuable as the board says, then it should stand up to the test of open discussion and evaluation by teachers and parents. Less than two days is hardly chough time for this to take place. Teachers and principals were told last September not to discuss with parents the merits or faults of the report card during the school year it was on trial. We parents have a right to know how the teachers feel on issues that affect our children. We have been denied this right on the report card issue. In the letter accompanying the survey it was stated, "It is also hoped that you, as parents, through this survey instrument will convey your wishes as to what types of information you desire to have included in a report card and in what form you feel a report card can best communicate to parents." The survey relates entirely to the report card presently being used and offers no alternatives to choose from. If public opinion is against the current report card, then another survey would have to be done to find out what teachers and parents do want. Is this how our school board practices financial responsibility? One survey could have been drawn up to solicit opinions on the current report card and at the same time to ask what parents and teachers prefer in terms of reporting. Wc applaud the board members and district staff for their frequently made statement that they are most concerned that our children have a positive and successful experience in school. But. wc find it hard to think of letter grades on primary report cards as positive. Letter grades do not allow for individual rates of growth and do nothing to encourage slow starters. Some children will receive low grades consistently with no indication of progress. They will be penalized for circumstances over which they have no control (i.e. they may have physical or emotional problems which impede academic success; they may be 'slow starters'; or they may receive insufficient stimulation in the home). These children have just as much right to feel successful as other children. Personal growth in any area is a success and is worthy of note. A report card that shows personal progress no matter how small is valuable and encouraging to children and parents. We feel letter grades show to some extent the child's position in his class. A more important concern should be — Is he feeling happy and successful? ir he is doing poorly what might his parents expect later in his school career and what can be done to help him now? Using the letter grade system, naturally gifted children will be made to feel successful at the expense of children whose achievement may be low, but who in fact may be working harder. Wc suggest that a report card showing the child's progress In terms of his abilities, and including teachers' comments combined with a parent-teacher interview would be a very positive way of telling the parents what he wants to know.

W. Money, somehow struck me as worth clipping out. I have been carrying it around in my shirt pockets, transferring it from one shirt to the next each laundry day, trying to figure out what 1 wanted to do with it. 1 still don't know what to do with it, so I will simply reprint here and let you carry it around in your shirt pocket for a while. Better Heed warning from past In view of the ungodly mess Canada is in today, it would be timely lu remind all Canadians that greed and selfishness by big corporations, labor unions and most of the rest of us are responsible for wage-and-price controls. The following letter by Tom Russell of Hollyburn was a good warning when The Province published il on May 7. 1945. We would do well to pay heed today: "Now ihat victory in Europe is with us. preparations are being hurried for the general election. Political! parlies are already staling their case. "After the last war. victory on ihe battlefield was exploited with disastrous results for selfish purposes by private interests, wanton, greedy and irresponsible. These same elements who performed that grave disservice before are now raising their voices again, apxious for another orgy of profiteering and self- seeking. "This country is well blessed wilh the natural resources to privide food, clothing and shelter for all, wilh modern machinery and willing, competent workers. The real election issue, stripped of camoufiage, is a challenge to our courage. Will we lake those resources and use them for the benefit of all. or be fooled again by giving than to private exploiters?" A. W. MONEY Bradner **• A provincial enquiry into the alleged illegal subdivision of Aid. Henry Friesen's property in Matsqui seems unavoidable. This is a great pity. It would serve justice much better if we were to use the police and court systems to enforce and adjudicate, rather than calling in sonic lackey from Victoria. These dudes charge a packet to come in and give us the benefit of their wisdom, and usually reach the same conclusion every time. They absolve everyone of any legal blame and wrap the culprits on the knuckles like misbehaving children at a supper table. Who needs it? This particular enquiry is bound to bog down in miles of pitiless rhetoric about old man Friesen's cursed water well. I'm so fed up with hearing about that blasted well! When he dug it he wasn't even on council, nor had he publicly announced his intention to run for office. It shot a stream of water so high into the sky that a flock of endangered Canada geese were drowned in mid air. Council rushed in and capped the well, and I for one am glad they did. Henry is an okay guy, but he just ain't as fast as he once was, and if they had waited until he got it capped himself, we would probably all have been chin deep in H20. Me included, and I was in the Yukon at the time. Anyway, council wanted to buy the well as a public water source, but quickly decided against it when it heard Henry was running for office. Don't ask me why, because I would have to answer that Matsqui council is paranoid, and I don't want to have to say that. They don't like me much as it is. So today poor old Henry's political opponents want him to pay back the cost of the well capping, and Henry doesn't seem to think that's quite cricket. Again, who can blame him? He didn't ask the yokels to cap the darned thing, they did it of their own volition. ' - Never give a sucker an even break Henry, I'm with you on that one. So would someone please explain all the fuss about this well. After all, it is only public money, and Henry may as well have it as some depraved heroin freak on skids in Vancouver. Since when did government give this much of a d--n about where our tax money gets spent? Just as long as it gets spent is all that matters, is it not? True, the subdivision of Henry's property does have a rather offensive odour about it, but surely that is a matter for the police not some retired commodore from the Victoria Yacht Club. Or is there one law for the public and another for politicians and civil servants? Pardon my ignorance, but is it not against the law to go around subdividing land without getting council's approval? Do we need another expensive public enquiry (white-wash?) to show us what is wrong and what is right? Canadians have a weird me- thod of handling unpleasant matters. We study, report, white paper, yellow paper, enquire and cross examine issues until everyone loses all interest in them. The trouble is in this case, we lost interest in it after the last provincial enquiry, so why go through the whole useless charade again. If nobody has the guts or the evidence to charge Henry Friesen and retired approving officer, Alex Sommerville, with a crime the way the rest of us would be charged, then fine, let's send them both back to their pastures for some peace and quiet. We could all use a summer vacation. * *• To the back door of a nearby farmhouse where I meet a sweet little old lady in running shoes. She likes to talk and I like few things better than to listen. She wants to check me out 1 sense; find out if I'm a good guy or a bad guy as it were. I turn on the charm. Works every time. She is soon eating out of my hand. She tells me about the time a car drove up to her back door and delivered a young whipper- snapper. He knocks on the back door and tells her he is lost and would like to use the phone. Being a sweet little old lady she obliges the young whipper- snapper. While he searches for a number in the phono book it suddenly strikes her that he might be there to case the joint. "We have no color tv and our black and white hardly works," she blurts, "and we don't have a coin collection or anything like that." Young whipper-snapper looks up from the phone book and replies: "Yeah, but you've got some nice plates and candle holders." Was he a bad guy or a good guy? You decide. God bless sweet little old ladies in tennis shoes. Together with sweet young ladies in cotton blouses they make life worth living. To hell with water wells. ALDERGROVE — Local psychologist Terry A. Collins has been awarded the Star of Courage by Governor-General Jules Leger for acts of bravery. The medal will be officially presented in Victoria later on this summer. Collins, a master of psychology, teaches at Douglas College; and receives the honor for saving the life of two-year-old Darren Bradley from a burning house in Aldergrove last year. He is deeply respected for his counselling work at alternatives in helping drug addicts and alcoholics. His family, including his wife, Valerie and their three children, Jeff. Chris and Anna, will be featured on the weekly Faith and Hope telecast, at 10 p.m. next Tuesday, over Western Cable Ten. Also appearing on the same program will be Len Holland, Canada's first concert accordionist, playing well-known hymns. Three cablevision shows were taped at the Aldergrove secondary school last week, under the direction of Mun Hope, host of the Faith and Hope hour. Participating in the musical part of the program are Sandra McLcod, Philip Hope and Bruce Hope. Aldergrove delegates to the Whcaton College missions congress; Shiela Wall, Aldergrove secondary student; Allan Sand, Abbotsford guitar instructor; and Wendy Nikkei, pianist. Also taking part in the weekly telecast are Vony and Cheryl Oros, of the Abbotsford Christian academy; and two Aldergrove day care supervisors, Laura Hope and Shiela Buston, who attended Fraser Valley College; as well as Adeline Hope, of the forthcoming Northwest Camp and Conference, being held at Point Roberts from August 28 through September 4, at the Ruth Morton memorial camp grounds. Host Mun Hope will also present reports of his recent experience at the B.C. legislature; and other meetings involving the governor of Georgia, and a Memorial Day gospel rally with the Illinois state governor and 65.000 people. California, the jumping off point for all new trends it seems, has come up with another, the tax revolt. Canadians will have some difficulty adopting this newest one because you can't buy it and it's legally impossible within our government system. The solution is to modify the product for the restrictions of the Canadian market. The elected governments, whether it be in Ottawa, Victoria or Langley and Surrey, are the only ones with their hands on the purse string. The Canadian tax revolt will therefore have to be indirect, through the elected representatives. Next election, ask the candidates if they are going to cut taxes, the cut's size and how they arc going to do it. If you want a tax revolt, help elect the person who is going to start it. As 1 mentioned in my column two weeks ago, 1 want a one-third cut in the federal government income tax phased in over a few years and a couple of points knocked off the corporate tax rates. Essential public services will not be affected by the tax culs but frivolous spending programs devised by weak-kneed bureaucrats will have to go. People are finally questioning the results of the Liberal- Socialist, throw some money at the problem, ethic. What have we got for our money? Almost double digit inflation, unemployment at its highest level since the Depression, the same income distribution and probably more social problems than we had a quarter of a century ago. Not all government initiatives have been unsuccessful but nothing can replace individual effort and initiative. And you can't buy it with somebody else's tax dollars. *»« The Chisholme Society has been renovating a home for handicapped people in Langley.

(Elgin), the Tory Party Agriculture Critic, at my invitation, visited with Fraser Valley farmers. Unfortunately it rained the first day so John had a wet introduction to the area. Aside from several tours of farms and processing plants. John met with executive members of local pro- ducer groups in Langley and then fielded questions from area farmers at an open meeting in Abbotsford that evening. Tuesday was spent in the Delta- Richmond area. Tom Siddon, Ihe P.C. candidate, set up several meetings where farmers ex- pressed their frustrations at the government for abandoning them in the onslaught of American produce. John explained how the Americans protect their farmers Irani imports while the Canadian government does not react likewise. P.C. Party policy is the sensible concept of applying surtaxes and surcharges on imports when the Canadian product is in season. Unlike the existing agriculture tariff structure. Under this system both the consumer and the Canadian farmer benefit. Wednesday John flew to Victoria where1 he met with Jim Hewitt, the Agriculture Minister and his senior staff to discuss initiatives to help our Lower Mainland farmers. * ** The world arms build up is a very irrational product of a supposedly rational world. Neglecting conventional (i.e. non- nuclear) arms the nuclear nations have the ability right now to wipe out the world's population one hundred times over. The world's governments spend in the area of 400 billion per year to add to thin destructive capability. When you consider what that amount of money could do in an alternative use respect for world leaders dimishes somewhat. One percent of the world's annual military budget is sufficient to provide food and a healthy development for 200 million malnourished children today. By far most of these starving kids arc residents of the developing countries which, unhappily, waste a greater portion of their GNI' on arms than the developed nations such as Canada. At a time when increasing attention and aid arc directed to the poor countries they in turn, over the last decade, have increased from 15 to 23 percent their share of the world's arms expenditures. The knife of nuclear war is at everybody's throat and the disease of arms' expenditures breaks down our economic health continually. The decision-makers could"do much for the world with little effort in the coming weeks of the U.N. Disarmament debate. How far will revolution carry? Continued from page 4 II percent was to be rebated directly to taxpayers. Instead, said tax rebate originator state Sen. James M. Kadlccck, the legislature simply stopped collecting at the 11 percent point. In other parts of the country, landmark legislation is already in effect. In Tennessee, voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment stipulating that the state may not tax or spend at a rate greater than the state's annual growth increase. These areas arc what taxpayer groups in Washington and Los Angeles call "hot spots" around Ihe country.

Located on about 30 acres of Fraser Valley farmland, AVTB is just another example of how volume production and automated methods are returning valley farms to the back side of the ledger. Soaring land values and increased overhead costs forced a severe slump on fanners in this region and Ihe slump gripped the area for nearly a decade. Municipal and provincial legislation forbidding subdivision of agricultural laud, pins the help of the banking community in financing automated farms are turning the downward trend around. At AVTII the management proves conclusively that turkey farms are just like everything else in the valley. II you want to make it pay you must get maximum utilization out of your acreage, and you must go for volume production. .Milieu I'alenauee. the manager in the number of workers required. A large part of the farm staff is involved directly in the artificial insemination process. Using up to date a.i. equipment the farm is able to keep toms separated entirely from the hens, thus eliminating the problems of fighting between the males and damage to females. The farm staff also insists that artificial breeding methods permit much greater volume production. A torn set loose in the hen house will generally gravitate to the weaker or slower hens, and often will not be able to accommodate Ihe entire hen population. Using a.i.. however, each torn increases his coverage substantially. Patcnaucc claims urbanization in the valley has not interrupted the turkey operation at all. Turkeys do need a more peaceful atmosphere than many other types of domestic fowl, but development around the'AVTB farm has been marginal. "This year with B.C. and export we arc looking at about two million eggs," he explains, adding that the demand for good turkeys is too high for the farm to white bird which has proven superior to most of the brown varieties. Like most other farmers, Pate- nauee claims marketing boards have helped the farmer to hold the profit line on production stock. Today's birds sell for over 40 cents per pound, whereas ten years ago the same bird would have been about 20 cents per pound. Marketing boards have made sure that turkey prices have risen along with production costs, inflation, and land values. "Our volume is brought to the point now where our people are working five nights a week, so that has been brought up to where it is very efficient. I think it was a must to get up to this size." he states. "Let's put it this way, we have to produce so many thousand eggs per day to make all this profitable." He adds that equipment companies are always experimenting and upgrading the automated aspects of the turkey.farm. It can be expensive to keep up with the advances made in this area, but it must be'done in order to keep production levels on the increase Linda Bell displays a flat of fresh breeding eggs for Incubation and slay solvent. People are still going into the turkey farming business and those who do enter seem to be happy with the work and future in farming. "The pay scales have been brought up. I wouldn't say they are high but they have been brought up to where they want to stay with us. Some of the farmworkers we have today are really keen and they think there is a future in it. But it is still a heck of a lot harder to get people to work here than on construction or A pen of breeder turkeys bask In Associated Valley Turkey Bree- the Fraser Valley sunlight at ders farm. something," reveals Patcnauec. Patcnauce says that young people are starting to realize that farming is not a bad way to make one's way in life. Cost accounting is such an important part of any profitable Fraser Valley farm, that many skills picked up by youngpeople in schools and office buildings are now applicable on the farm. Good management has become more important than it ever was before. "You just don't fool around, you produce today," he states. of the farm, has been in the poultry business since he was a child. On his family's farm he started oil as an egg picker, and when he married later in life he went right into turkey farming on his own spread in Ontario. He has been a working partner al Ihe AVTB farm in Aldergrove for eight years, and is now introducing his own offspring into the business. The farm bnasis a compliment of about 10,000 breeding hens and aboul 1110 toms. All breeding is done through artificial insemination (a.i.) "1 think when wc first started here we had aboul four people, now we arc looking at close lo .10." explains Patcnaucc pointing out that modern farming methods utilize less labor in terms of production percentages, but more keep up with. In addition to the two million eggs per year, the farm also sells about two million broilers per anum. "Right now we are actually looking lo export...there is a possibility wc will have about 10.000 breeders for export next year." The export market is always growing according to Patenaucc. Large markets for B.C. hens exist in the U.S.A. and parts of Europe. Holland and England are big turkey buyers. "B.C. birds match up well on the international market because we have a fantastic climate area here. We haven't got the extreme heat. We can maintain production here the year round," he explains.

With a man on each base, Kirkowski struck the ball over the roof of one of the school's portable classrooms to ensure plenty of time for himself and the other three runners to make il back to the home plate. In general the first game could easily have been called a massacre, while the second was something just short of organized suicide on the Border Patrol's pari. The U.S. enforcement people, however^ arc not that easily daunted. Rumor has it they have challenged Ihe redcoats to a rerun of Ihe event this time on their own soil. A detachment member said Tuesday that the RCMP team is ready to risk becoming prisoners of war in Canada's fish battle with Ihe Americans. They will take up (he new challenge and travel into enemy territory for the game. Meanwhile, behind enemy lines, the Border Patrol is suspected of harboring a secret weapon in the person of some golden bat slugger, who they hope will send Ihe redcoats back to Canada with their tails between their legs. .lodging by last weeks scores, the proof of that pudding will definitely be in the eating. sidwaikSAH continues 10c per Book from our Sidewalk Bin Many - Many More to choose from inside at HALF price or less all in order of subject and author *** ilST^<Co^^6 «cv *<<%> Book Shop proprietor, Franz Langmann holds the box while Fay Pullen draws the winning ticket.

EATON'S THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 1978 7A 'Voters to role' on trustees drink case Bylaw t0 be upheld ALDERGROVE Township Highway, wants to rebuild the that Hadvick could build 18 or 20 VICTORIA — The future of Langley school trustee David Bell, fined $750 last week for impaired driving and failing to take a breath test, is up to the voters, education minister Pat McGeer said Tuesday. Bell, who is up for re-election in November, was fined Monday for charges laid two years ago, but the convictions were not for indictable offences. McGeer has said that teachers convicted of possessing marijuana should be fired, even if they arc given an absolute discharge or convicted of less than an indictable offence. "He's an elected school trustee and he's . responsible to the voters, who I'm sure will decide." Asked if teachers convicted of drunk driving offences should be fired, McGeer said that is up to local school boards. Bell. 37, of 22095- 102 Avenue, in Langley, was convicted in Surrey provincial court and fined $500 for the impaired charge and $250 for failure to take the test. A charge of dangerous driving against bell was dismissed. The fines were accompanied by a three-month mandatory licence suspension. The charges were laid under the Summary Convictions Act after a police check on Highway 99 in 1976. Under the Public Schools Act, school trustees found guilty of indictable offences automatically lose their board seats. Impaired driving and failure to take a breath analysis test can be treated as indictable or summary offences and are up to the discretion ofthe prosecutor. Bell, a lawyer, was tried summarily and says the conviction "in no way affects my position as a school trustee." In Surrey court. RCMP Const. Harvey Gorsline testified that the charges arose from an incident May 6.1976, in which he pursued a driver who had failed to keep his headlights dimmed after police flashed their headlights at him. In the ensuing chase on Highway 99. the vehicles reached speeds of up to 100 miles an hour before police arrested the driver al gunpoint, Gorsline said. Other occupants of the car testified Bell's driving appeared normal and said Bell pulled over 160 kids escape school blaze FORT LANGLEY - Belongings plucked from desks in a grade one classroom during evacuation of the school showed signs of heat damage. It was just one indication of how closely 160 children at West Langley Elementary School escaped a raging inferno Monday morning. The entire school, with the exception of the gymnasium was destroyed in the fire. The flames broke out at about 9:45 a.m. in a vacant kindergarten classroom and grew undetected for a short while. Eventually the fire was spotted by an employee, and a secretary at the school office ran to notify the fire department. Meanwhile, six-year-old Lori Viani also spotted the blaze and hurried to tell her teacher. The teacher tripped the alarm system and the children and ten staff members made it out of the building before flames engulfed the hallways. A 12-year-old juvenile has been apprehended by police and charged with arson in connection with the fire which has caused an estimated $350,000 damage. All school records, including 1978 year end report cards, were destroyed in the fire. One fireman, Robert Rowse, of Langley was taken to Langley Memorial Hospital and treated for smoke inhalation, while another required treatment at the scene, Four volunteer fire halls responded to the call and off duty firemen from other districts took part in the battle against the flames. Officials at Langley School Board Tuesday afternoon reported that a few meetings had been held and board members were filled in on the event, but no answer had been found to press time as to where the 160 students will complete their school term. Firemen who responded to the alarm had trouble fighting the fire due to the false cielings in the school.

The problem which has mainly kepi Langley schools out of the programs of Langley Days is that the dates set for the event each year have coincided with final exams in the schools, making it almost impossible for students in the bands and choral groups to sacrifice the time and attendances needed in preparation for a performance when they are studying "all-out" for a crucial final examination. This year the Monitor is earmarking its award for the best school band from a Langley school contributing to the Langley Days program. Hopefully for future years ways and means will be found to enable the schools of Langley school district no. 35 — with some of the finest talent on this continent — to participate without let or hindrance. Also, hopefully Langley merchants and business firms will join in making available a substantial number of worthwhile awards for Langley school groups taking part in Langley Days in 1979 and succeeding years.

Regular services are at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. Sunday. All are welcome. For further information phone 856-1413. The news is-good news Something seems to be happening to north American society (hat may be far more significant than past revolutions such as the "greening" of America, or the hippies, or the protest marches. For the first time in many years, we're in a mood for good news again. Star Wars became the biggest money making movie of all time. Surprise! — the good guys win. And they do it. not by some clever trick that catches their opponents off guard, but by trusting something bigger than themselves, by something that used to be called faith. Close Encounters of the Third Kind presents alien creatures, not as a malevolent enemy be beaten off. but as a sign of hope. Almost all the big national magazines in Canada have now carried feature articles on marriages that last, instead of just those that break up. And on the Mcrv Griffin Show, Ross Hunter, the director of Airport, says that people arc getting tired of sex, violence, and pornography. According to Hunter, they're ready for love stories again.' Faith...hope...and love...Maybe it's true, as newscaster Lloyd Robcrlson writes in the Presbyterian Record, quoting a U.S. university president, that "the Christian experience has become acceptable again." If our obsession with bad news is indeed waning, that in itself is good news. —United Church News CONSCIENCE AND COMMENT Right beside Playboy By REV.

And its phone lines are jammed by jubilant well-wishers, advertisers and seekers of information. Roger Elwood. the publisher/ editor, certainly seems to have a winner. It's no wonder he's excited — but why all the excitement on the outside? A peck inside the current periodical may help explain. For starters, there's an informative and stimulating conversation with Joni Earcckson, talented and vibrant artist/author (who is featured on the cover). There is also an enlightening interview with singing star Debby Boone on "honoring parents." (Hers are Pat and Shirley). Then, if neither of these items lights up your life (and Inspirations^ switchboards), there are plenty of other articles. The book condensation and excerpts, the Anita Bryant interview, the insights of Francis Schaeffer and Bible smuggler Brother Andrew, the "Sportianity" feature, and more. In short, thelre's something for everyone. And it's right where everyone can find it — on the public newsstands. Beside the degrcdation, investigation, allegation, titillation and deviation, at last there's room for Inspiration. I. for one, welcome the newcomer. "Happiness Is..." the story of faith, will be presented at 7:30 p.m. next Saturday and Sunday at the Aldergrove Gospel Chapel, 26580 • 29th Ave. This motion picture is intended for everyone who once was a child; also for whole families, for children as well as parents.

The Monitor's circulation representative for Langley and' Aldergrove areas, Stan Churchill, is being assisted in organization and operation of the display this year by a number of Monitor enthusiasts. As it Happens in the United Church The United church in this community is a two-point pastoral charge, comprising Aldergrove United church and Mt. Lehman United church, both served by Rev. Jim Ford. Newcomers to the area may not be aware of the history of Mt. Lehman church, for il is an historic building. Mt. Lehman church has stood the test of time, built around the I890's, it was for ten years the only school house in Matsqui area. The foundation comprises several hand-hewn logs some 40 feet long, now approaching 100 years old and still in a well- preserved state. For nearly 40 years it was the Presbyterian church for the area, then in 1925 the congregation joined in with church union along with the Methodists, Congrcgationaiists and most of the Presbyterians. Now, in a growing community, iut Now, in a growing community, it serves the needs of many of the senior residents and the influx of new families. Last Sunday saw the baptisms of S children of local families. The afternoon was the annual congregational picnic for Mt. Lehman. It was to have been held at Matsqui Park but bad weather brought the people back into the church hall and later a sports day at the Mt. Lehman athletic park. A good crowd was in attendance. In the Aldergrove church the Jubilation singers sang two numbers. "Signs of Love" and "Come and go with me". This teen group, complete with guitars and led by Shiela Knapp, is made up of young adults from Mt. Lehman and Aldergrove churches. A group much appreciated by the congregations. The senior choir sang the hymn. "This is the day the Lord has made". Both Mt. Lehman and Aldergrove churches arc fortunate in their choirs. At Aldergrove they were led by Sybil Borgal and at Mt. Lehman by Cathy Sandstrom. Their music adds so much to the atmosphere of worship. Being Father's Day last Sunday, the congregations at both churches shared some thoughts on the theme, "What arc our families being fed?". The minister used the text from Luke 11:11-13 where Jesus speaks about our heavenly Father meeting the needs of His Family — Ihe Family of God. Who is actually feeding our families? Society is feeding our families; through the medium of the press, radio, and television. And not ail this input is for our good. The schools are feeding our children, and parents have a right to know what children arc being taught. The friends we socialize with feed our families and, can, even without our being aware lead us in the wrong direction. No one is suggesting that we hide our children, or even cut ourselves off. from exposure to ideas and concepts that arc anti-Christian. The thing to do is help families, and especially our children, find standards for evaluating what they are fed from any source. Families who talk about Christ in the home and who talk with Him in the home can expect His presence and help. This coming Sunday will sec a musical program at the Aldergrove church by the choir, under the direction of Sybil Borgal their leader. Also at both churches Ihe Sacramenl of Holy Communion will be observed. Wc welcome all friends and visitors to be with us and share in the social time that follows each service. Both congregations have a children's session at the opening part of the service and then the small children leave for their own classes so that families and parents may enjoy the rest of the service without any disturbance.

Citrus Juicer s2.98 Cougars retain hold on first place ALDERGROVE — The Cougars continued to lead the standings in major little league baseball, but their hold on first place is tenuous. Two teams are presently tied for second and the order of finish is far from decided, going into the last week of play. The Pilots and Kings arc both pressing for the top and have closed within one point of the lead. The Bears, although relegated to last place, have played some excellent ball games of late and should be well primed for the play-offs. There were some extremely close and well played ball games this week. The Kings edged the Lions 8 to 7 as Tracy Franck pitched a strong game while Johnnie Sheaff and Jeff Eckstein provided the hits. Some excellent defensive work was displayed by bolh teams. The Bears won their first game in a long while as they downed the Pilots 7 - 2. Ron Kitsul played well as third and hit a home run. Paul Krepp was strong on the mound and Kevin Anderson was outstanding behind the plate. In other games the Cougars lost twice this week as their hopes for Ihe league crown were jolted. It would appear now that either the Kings or the Pilors will finish first and their three games against each other this week will decide the issue.

Each year the number of hoys and girls involved in this sporl has grown fantastically. This year the league has the participation of eight teams with approximately fourteen players on each team. T-ball was introduced into the Aldergrove area to eliminate the danger for the youngsters involved. The ages involved are six to eight years. It was found in previous years that this age bracket was just too young to keep up with the speed of regular hard ball so therefore T-ball was introduced. It is common opinion that the boys and girls graduating up to hard ball and softball arc much more alert and play a faster and more efficient game than if they hadn't played T-ball. After learning their basic fundamentals in T-ball, the youngsters can then concentrate on polishing their skills in the next bracket up. Already all the youngsters and coaches are looking forward to next year! Congratulations to all the kids and coaches who played this year and a very special pat on the back to the South Otter Expos who have topped the league for the third straight year. The Expos had a perfect season this year fourteen games and fourteen wins. The final standings were as follows: June 13 — Expos 36. Kings 29, Dodgers 35, Blue Jays 35, Tigers 14. Bears 20. Giants 17.

A good crowd was on hand and everyone had an enjoyable time. The door prize was won by Mary Sanderson and the spot by Tim Thomas and Hilda Lunde- berg. The raffle winners were Brent Hansen and Gwcn Keay. The entry into the Aldergrove Days parade of the Thrift Shop won a third prize. Wayne Rinki generously loaned his flat deck truck to the shop and the ladies, who operate the venture a few doors west of the Star office, went to work decorating the truck. The theme of their effort was an old time dance in appropriate dress under the emmcee Carl Willings- hofer, who is also president of the Thrift Shop Association. The music was supplied by the Aldergrove Rangers, the orchestra of the pensioners of branch no. I. The same entry will be entered in the Langley Parade for. next Saturday. The hall is still not settled but Mrs. Lcduc. the deputy minister in charge, has promised us a definite yes or no before the end of June. Even the mention of a no is very discouraging when taking into account all the five months of work and the enthusiastic backing of the municipal government and officials, the service clubs and the hard work put in by the members themselves. The dances have been a real boost in the finances of the hall ■ and it would seem to Be a very vital effort in the success of the pensioners as the taxes in 1977 were $270. In 1978 the taxes are $1,087.55 which is a hefty jump by anyone's measurement. A meeting of the executive has been called for June 19 at which proposals on how to proceed if a government decision of our request for a grant results in a turndown. If our request is okayed a work bee has to be organized to prepare the hall prior to being turned over to the contractor. It is the dragging out of decision making in the civil service and the endless delays in communicating these decisions when made, that make apprehensions and headaches for your executive. Agnes McDonald has had to retire from the secretary's job due to ill health of herself and her immediate family. She will be greatly missed by the branch as she very ably discharged her duties and a large vote of thanks is extended to her for her faithful attention to the pensioners' business.

How would you like to balance books for an organization that spends $4,000,000,000 a year? That's the task facing Erma Morrison, the newly-appointed auditor-general for the government of British Columbia. Morrison was sworn in as auditor-general on September 1. 1977. 1'hc government decided to install a provincial auditor and passed an act following for one in 1976. Morrison, then deputy- auditor general in Prince Edward Island, was chosen from among 55 applicants. She notes that British Columbia was the last province in Canada to install an auditor-general. Langley library to go ahead LANGLEY — City council Monday authorized staff to proceed with working drawings for an extension to Langley Centennial Library. But the actual start of construction depends on the city receiving provincial assistance through the recreational facilities fund. In February, the library advisory commission vetoed council's suggestion for modular units to serve as a temporary measure and recommended instead on-site construction for the extension. Aid. Bill McMillan, council's library spokesman, welcomed the decision. Conditions. arc so cramped that the library did not have room for reference and childrcns' librarians. The extension, which would be a two-storey addition to the present single level structure, could be as much as 8,000 square feet. ffew POW flbbLER 20175 Fraser Hwy.

She has been active in professional organizations, being past president of the New Brunswick and the Prince Edward Island Institutes of Chartered Accountants. The New- Brunswick institute has honored her as a Fellow of Chartered Accountants. As auditor-general for British Columbia, Morrison is responsible for auditing the government's books, the provincial universities and the books from several of the province's crown corporations. She has between 25 and 30 audits to do besides auditing the provincial government. "So you can see why I need people." she explained. Her standards are high. So far she has 35 people on staff. weeded out from 500 applicants. "It's a question of trying to find the very best people. I'm very proud of the people we have now. We've been very selective." She expects her staff to grow to oO by the end of this year. So far she has been concentrating on getting her office organized and the staff chosen and started. "It takes a while to get these things rolling." Her office started auditing, on a small scale, in mid-January. She is dealing with the 1977-78 fiscat year, which ended on March 31. The budget for that year was just under 54.000,000.- 000. She and her staff have started by examining the checks and controls in the various depart ments which make sure that the money is spent properly. If there is any question as to how the department operates, the auditors will take a closer look. "We're well along with that," Morrison said, adding that the next step is to pick the most important fields and concentrate on them. The process can take as much time as the auditor has time to spend on it. "It takes all the time in the world," Morrison pointed out. Whether or not it takes all the time in the world, the auditor- general will be expected to table a report in the House at the first session following the end of the fiscal year. Although she and her staff will be doing interim work throughout the year, she suspects it will take "two to three months' concentrated work, minimum" to prepare the auditor-general's report. The report will be based on accounts submitted to her office by September 30 and, since she has to present the report at the first session of the Legislature following that date, she is hoping there won't be a fall session. It will take. six months to produce the final statements, she said. She is not expecting massive in-depth results from her staff this year although she docs feel that her department will be able to do an effective job as staff and experience increase. "As we grow each year we'll be able to do more, go into more depth and breadth, both," she said. I® JUNE 22-28 |Thurs.-Wed 7&9PM "ONE OF THE BEST PICTURES OF THE YEAR."

For that reason, they advise habitual marijuana smokers to abstain from use of the substance for a period before and after treatment. The researchers review marijuana in relation to stress in dental treatment in the June issue of the Journal of the American Dental Association. They are Drs. Leonard Horowitz of the Eastman Dental Centre in Rochester, N.Y., and Robert Nersasian of Tufts University school of dental medicine in Boston. They point out that about half of college-age people in the United States used marijuana in I972, with eight percent smoking it daily. And they say it is projected that 66 percent of young adults will use it by 1980. For this reason, they advise dentists, more young dental patients will be seeking elective or emergency dental treatment while under the influence of marijuana. Marijuana, they say, "is a potent, pharmacologically active agent that could affect and complicate a dental procedure" and it needs further study as it relates to dental treatment. They say it interferes with normal cardiovascular mechanisms and those responses involving the involuntary nervous system. Patients who have used marijuana may develop irregular heartbeats and may experience drops in blood pressure to the point where they faint, Drs. Horowitz and Nersasian say. The chemically active ingredients in marijuana alone are capable of inducing a number of abnormal responses involving the heart, lungs and blood vessels, as well as other physiologically dangerous changes.

Fifty percent of all drivers killed are legally impaired. Every year, over 300 lives are lost. Many more individuals are disfigured, disabled or crippled. Every year, drinking-driving accidents cost us, the taxpayers of B.C.. millions and millions of dollars. Something simply has to be done and it has to be done by responsible, socially-conscious citizens. Our sense of social responsibility is one of the first things alcohol affects. Drinking drivers simply don't care. Alcohol is a drug with subtle and varied effects on the mind and body, and is dangerous because so few people actually understand it. For instance, one drink, combined with some types of medicines, can cause impairment five times greater than just one drink alone. Alcohol also distorts eye focus by relaxing certain eye muscles. Il affects a driver's ability to Velvet Hazlctt. Anita McCamley, Kelly McDonald. Laurie New- I'eldt.

Terri Wlcnccki was absent. 200 hour bars were presented to Sharon Gronlund, Caroline Humphrey and .lo-ann Ncgrin. Mary Yusko and Anne Wilson were absent. Betty Wilson accepted the bar for her sister. Anne. A .150 hour bar and a 400 hour bar were presented to Cheryl Kimbie. the first candy striper to obtain both awards. Cheryl has been a faithful and dedicated volunteer service since she started in May. 1975. Another highlight of the evening was the presentation of approximately $70. to Mr. Stewart Chapman, administrator of the hospital by Cheryl Kimbie, on behalf of the candy stripers and supervisors. Cheryl had organized the collection for the purpose of purchasing pyjamas lor the children's ward. Before the meeting adjourned I lie girls all repeated their candy striper pledge, as follows: "We, the Candy Stripers of Langley Memorial hospital, pledge ourselves wholeheartedly to the cause and purpose for which we arc organized, that is: to assist but not take over services rendered by hospital personnel, to give them greater opportunity to do the work for which they are trained; to bring additional services lo patients which will tend to create a warm, friendly atmosphere in the hospital; and to gain personal satisfaction through services to others knowing time has been well spent." The candy striper program, which is maintained from 1600 to I KOI) hours seven days a week involves approximately 75 girls ranging in age from 14 to 18 years. The program will recess during the months of July and August. The evening concluded with refreshments for everyone.

With a drinking driver's sense of responsible action reduced, his vision clouded, and a lethal weapon like a car barely under his control — just how much chance do you, the responsible citizen, have to avoid an accident? The odds' are not on your side. Statistics show that if you're driving between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m., one out of every three drivers that approach you on the road has been drinking. And as many as one out of every 10 is drunk. What constitutes drunk? In Canada, the legal definition of impairment is a blood-alcohol reading of over .08 percent. That means the proportion of alcohol is over 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood. A person's size, weight, emotional state, metabolism and number of drinks consumed over a period of time determine how quickly the legal limit is reached. Bear in mind that a person with a BAC (blood-alcohol content) of .08 percent will not necessarily feel drunk. Or even giddy. But his vision, reaction time and sense of social responsibility arc seriously affected. And the facts are that drinking drivers simply do not sober up that easily. Black coffee will not help. Nor a cold shower. Ninety- five percent of the alcohol in the system is eliminated through the liver. And that takes considerable time. So what can we do? We've got to be more socially responsible. All of us. Wc are facing an awesome challenge here in B.C. To change our personal and collective behavior and attitudes toward drinking-driving is no simple task. Nothing less than an all-out commitment level will work if we arc .to protect ourselves and our loved ones from the menace of the drinking driver. In subsequent articles we will discuss what individuals and the community might be able to do about this problem. The first and most important thing we can do is resolve, to ourselves, that we WILL NOT DRINK AND DRIVE. ALDERGROVE TRADERS NOW OPEN Come in and see us, you're more than welcome.

It pays to know who is your friend and who is not in the insect world. Far too many people kill anything that moves. There are , exceptions but as a general rule the quick movers are friends of the gardener and the slow movers arc the enemies. It is easy to mistake the harmful millipede for the useful centipede. The millipede, usually blackish in color, has a shell-like skin. It has a great number of legs, moves very slowly and will curl itself up if disturbed. Get rid of them as they are destructive. The centipede, yellow or orange in color has not got so many legs but is a very fast mover. It destroys many harmful insects so leave it alone. Grass snakes, toads and ladybirds are. the gardeners friends. They destroy an enormous number of harmful soil insects. I'm not very attracted to starlings as they have the bad habit of pulling up seedling plants for nesting material. This year I found a complete pansy plant in a nest in our mail box. In addition, the mother starling claimed priority over the mailing system and threw several letters out into the road. One cheque was brought to the house in a wcttencd envelope that had been lying in the ditch for two weeks. However, these same birds can pass as friends because they eat huge quantities of harmful grubs, particularly from lawns. They arc very inquisitive and will have a peck at anything. Before planting onion sets always cut off the long stems otherwise your onions will be found a long way away. This year 1 have managed to keep them away from the vegetable garden by putting out one or two of these propellor-windmill toys. Usually my worst garden enemy is the slug but this year they do not seem to be nearly so numerous. I have had far more trouble from field mice or shrews. Everything is supposed to have its use. although for the life of me 1 cannot think why slugs were made. Or flics for that matter. One thing is for sure. There is not a garden-in the world that docs not suffer in one way or another from some kind of pest. After all, it is their territory as much as ours except that they do not have to pay taxes. I have never seen aquilegia (columbine) looking so magnificent. Do try to have this plant in your garden. It is a native of British Columbia and grows very well here. Get the best seed possible (long-stemmed hybrids) and sow seed in July or August. This can be done in a fine seedbed out in the open (partial shade) or in flats. In the fall, when they are a few inches high, transplant them about three inches apart in a vacant spot you'll probably have in the vegetable garden. They remain there over winter and are planted in their permanent positions in early spring. Aquilcgias come in every color and arc regal in their splendour when massed in a bed that gels shade for most of the day. They only require thin bamboo staking and are fairly free from any disease or pest. They come into flower at the same time as most of the bearded irises and these two plants go very well together. As cut flowers they will last for up to ten days. They freely self-seed but the seedlings may not be the same colors as the parent plant. When you have to water your flower garden, remember that some plants need far more water than others. Those that do not demand much moisture include geraniums, petunias, zinnias, portulaca and nasturtium but water heavily when you give it to clematis and dahlias. Dahlias can do with plenty of feeding and mulching as well. Don't forget to stake them early and give them stout stakes because they make an awful amount of heavy foliage. If you put your green peas in late they will be starting to pod up now. This is the time to feed them with liquid manure. If left dry, the pods will not swell out. Lettuces must never be allowed to get dry. They need plenty of water otherwise they yill bolt and become bitter to the taste. Don't leave carrot thinnings lying about. They will attract the carrot root fly. Try not to leave crowns exposed after thinning. Draw up some soil to the plants. Fish fertilizer in the liquid form is excellent but remember that it is very high in nitrogen content. It's excellent for cabages, lettuce and all leafy plants but go slow with the root crops. LT. A. honors retiring members LANGLEY — Langley Teachers) Association honored its retiring members last Thursday evening at its annual retirement banquet. Emmcce was Norm Sherritt, principal of Aldergrove secondary. Teachers Bruce Niblow. Norman Green, Alex Goostrey. Tom Roberts.

Across the hall is the family dining room, separated from the hall and kitchen by concealed pocket doors. Although the kitchen is but a step away, a pass-through is conveniently located on one wall. Well designed in a "U" shape, the kitchen has a place for everything, with cupboards galore. A large window, facing the front, has been placed over the twin sinks and allows an abundance of daylight. Mother can keep an eye on the children, in the family room, while continuing daily chores. Folding doors divide the two rooms and a sliding door opens to a possible rear patio. There is also a door to the back hall and a conveniently located washroom. The den, or guest room is also ideally placed close to the three- piece vanity shower. And the utility, containing washer, and dryer, doubles as a mud-room, with direct entry from the outside. . Stairs from the front hall lead to the upper hall and a large three- piece vanity bath, which serves the three good-size bedrooms. The master bedroom has a three-piece shower ensuite and a spacious walk-in closet, for that added touch of luxury. An ideal home for that large and growing family, it combines the finest from the past with the best in contemporary for a happy future.

THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 1978 DESIGNT0DAY 3B Letting in the light By ELIZABETH HAWKINS If you've just survived a bleak and miserable winter, those bright and sunny days are a treat — providing you don't have to go lo Palm Springs to enjoy them. Some homes have about as much light and exposure as a German bunker. If you can and when you do crack a window for some fresh air, a crack is just about all you gel. A fly can just about make a coffee cake landing...providing he doesn't bank too sharply — over the sill! Grandma may have been happy living in a turret but homes today more than ever reflect our environment, both the conservation of our resources and the enjoyment of them. We have only to look at the increased popularity of indoor gardening, the more relaxed "open planning" of our homes, the atriums and, what was once simply a backyard, more than likely has become a leisure and pleasure oriented cabana, entertainment area or a solitary retreat for privacy and peace. Combining the outdoors with the indoors is often the most practical solution for year round enjoyment. Roof windows, sky lights and tempered or safety glass provide several options —" for either flat or pitched roofs, now readily available in a variety of dimensions. Acrylic "bubbles" are a lightweight alternative for vertical walls, compatible with an architecturally understated look.. All these are now "double- glazed", a major point when you consider that single glass loses 14; times more heat than the equivalent area of an insulated wall!. Keep your windows exposed to'; the south, "buffer" those located on the north by shrubs or trees and use fixed rather than move* able windows where possible are other energy saving points to keep in mind when building or remodeling. Inside the house natural light can be shared by inviting it to enter those segregated areas of the house. Doorways, arches, partial partitions, "holes" and dividers can often be enough to define a room without making it a cell. And while you're basking in all that sunshine and natural light, don't forget to think about how- you're going to spend all those dollars you've been saving on your light bills!

The respectable medical periodicals are perused avidly by medical journalists looking for interesting topics to disseminate to the puljlic al large. The journals promote litis activity and frequently provide writers with articles before Ihe publication dale of the journal. This practice serves the purpose of getting new medical information to a lot of people very rapidly. II the reporter is well qualified and a professional: his story is likely to be factual and accurate. Some lay publications rely on sensationalism lor their success, and writers contributing to these newspapers may stretch the intent ol the original article lor the sake of increasing ihe dramatic impact. By exaggerating the importance of a medical break- through, or. alternatively, by excessively playing on a possible adverse effect of a treatment or drug, these reporters may generate false hope or unwarranted fear In some of their readers. I am sure every doctor has been approached by patients carrying an article lorn from a newspaper describing a new treatment for their disease. There is nothing wrong with this providing that Ihe article refers lo Ihe original source so the doctor can look it up. In my experience the information given in such articles is very premature, reflecting early re-* . -search resulls that are a long way from final development. The patient land the doctor, lor that matter), are disappointed that the report is not of more use to them. Newspapers and magazines are Centre House] of Fabrics Your one-stop sewing centre aside.

But it is still a staple and far less expensive than the better cuts of steak. if you have a tendency to spurn the lowly hamburger when it's barbecue time, think again!

Dogs-dogs-dogs The Fraser Valley Dog Fanciers held their spring class graduation at the Matsqui armouries on Thursday evening, June 15. Beginners Obedience: This is the class wherein chief instructor, Mrs. Irene McKay, and her assistants teach owners to teach their dogs. The ideal is to teach the dogs to sit, stand, lie down, come when called and walk sedately beside their owners. Each exercise has a purpose towards making the family pet a well behaved member of the community. The club motto is, "train the S out of your Pest". Highest scoring in this class was a Bouvier des Flandres "Casey" owned by Jean Oostenburg. This breed may not be recognized by the average person but it is a large rugged working dog. It was used to drive cattle and help farmers in Flandres. Later they became message carriers in World War One. Most Improved Dog went to the Labrador retriever "Tanner" owned by Treva Peters. This award is decided by the instructors and is given to the dog which has. in their opinion presented the greatest challenge to the owner to train. In some classes this is a difficult choice to make! Goylene Hirschkorn graduates from U.S. college ALDERGROVE — A local student is among more than 260 graduates of Walla Walla College's 1978 graduating class. Gaylcne Hirschkorn, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James F. Hirschkorn of 26026 - 48 Avenue, received a bachelor of arts degree with-a major in chemistry. Walla Walla College's eighty- third annual commencement exercises were held June 2 -4. WWC is one of 13 Seventh-day Advcntist colleges in North America and part of a worldwide educational system. Intermediate or Novice: This is for people who have taken a "Beginners" and wish to progress further with training and those interested in competing at Obedience Trials. Highest score went to the Doberman Pinscher , "Dion" owned by Terry Crosby. The instructor, Vaughn Franskc was one of the first "Beginners" in Fraser Valley dog fanciers classes some years ago. Through those classes he took a Vizsla through to the highest degree in obedience. The Vizsla, another lesser known breed is a Hungarian Shorthaircd Setter. Its origin is questionable but probably descended from a German Setter (possible the Weimarancr) and a Pointer. It combines the attributes of both. Conformation: For purebred dogs who will enter championship shows. These classes are a mixture of people wishing to learn how to handle their dogs and experienced breeders who arc simply training and socializing theirs. Best Handler: John Fen- ncy judged this class and selected Mary Winter with St. Bernard "Ncida". Most Improved Handler went to Brenda Graham with Doberman Pinscher "Maggie". This last award is again, decided by the Instructor and Mr. Sandy Bryco felt Brenda had made the most improvement during the classes. Next classes start Thursday, September 14. 1978. The first class will start at 7 p.m. and no dogs arc required. This is a registration and lecture night in which general information on equipment needed, care, grooming, feeding and other matters pertaining to dogs can be explained in a quiet setting. Questions can be asked. For more information call any of these numbers: 859-9111 (Mrs. McKav) 856-8001 (Mrs. Jarvis), 530-2609 (Mr. Brvcc). or 596-3109 (Miss Millar).'

Parents from Uplands and Murrayville schools were joined by Langley Teachers' Association president Terry Eastman in asking the school board to place a temporary freeze on the transfer of six principals and 15 teachers Important notice The Langley 4-H family picnic, organized by the Langley 4-H junior council, wilt not be held at Ft.

Bovine breeders battle for best honors PATRICIA — Jersey breeders from throughout the Fraser Valley gathered in this small border community just south of Aldergrove Sunday night, to stage their annual show and production awards night. Show awards went to many valley farmers including John and Amy Chard, Bob Anderlini and Ron Obst. The evening also featured a $2.00 raffle for a high quality Jersey calf and some vials of top grade bull semen. Master of ceremonies for the evening was Surrey Co-op president Ralph Barichello, and special guests included Jack Farmer of Otter Institute and Mike Fluge- wich of Buckerficlds. All three gentlemen gave out awards on behalf of their employers. One of the highlights of the evening was a toast to the Jersey cow, given by Barichello, utilizing creamy jersey milk. In offering the toast. Barichello noted that Jerseys are the smallest of the popular milk producing cattle, adding that they are also the most productive in terms of butterfat and, protein content. "As is always the case the best things arc always wrapped up in the smallest packages...she has the ability of exceeding all other bovine species in converting grass to milk." he said. "It has been researched and found to be true. Unfortunately the people who set prices for milk do not agree that five percent butterfat milk is the best," declared the co-op executive. Production awards presented include one to Donald Henderson of Delta for his "best combined B.C.A. cow", twelve year old Seymour Dreamer Graceful. Highest herd production average went to Bob Anderlini who averaged 5,051 kilograms of milk last year. The Regis Lawn farm won the honors both for highest calf production and highest producing animal (Regis Star). BIRCK'S BETTER BUYS BIRCK'S BETTER BUYS BANK OF B.C.

Eastman estimates that at least three principals and at least four teachers arc upset by their pending transfer to new schools in September. For the principals, transfer from some of the larger schools in the district to some of the smaller ones represent a demotion and a corresponding cut in pay. One teacher notified of her transfer on Friday said she felt like a pawn and that the decision to take her from her present school was inhuman. Another promised to resign rather than face "such cavalier treatment". Parents from Murrayville elementary school, slated to lose principal Gordon MacDonald to Lochicl elementary if the transfers arc approved by the school board, presented a hastily drawn petition to the board at its regular meeting at Brookswood junior secondary school. "In view of the problems this district has." says the petition's organizer, Karen Dick, "it certainly doesn't make things any better at all." A second petition, claimed by the Uplands delegation to represent more than 75 percent of the school's parents, demanded the school's principal, Harry McTag- gcrt, be retained. A spokesman said the transfer of McTaggert to a pair of small school amounted to a demotion for the veteran of 20 years in education. She added that Mc- Taggcrt's pending departure has proven a blow to staff morale as the school year winds down. During a lively question and answer period following the board's regular meeting, Earl Danccy, director of elementary education, told the parents he engineered the numerous transfers to bring about a better educational climate in Langley. He assured the parents that he gave reasons for the transfers to the affected principals in the form of individual confidential reports. "I think you're making political hay at the expense of your colleagues." Dancey told Eastman. The director of elementary instruction also refuted rumors that the transfer of MacDonald and McTaggert would pave the way for the establishment of two additional fundamental schools in Murrayville and at Uplands. "I think as many good things arc happening in those schools as good things are happening in fundamental schools," said Danccy. "I have no intention of establishing any more fundamental schools in Langley." Two existing fundamental schools. Langley Central and Langley Prairie near the center of the district, offer a curriculum based mainly on basic subjects and feature tight discipline as a basic educational philosophy. A teacher transfer at Belmont elementary school in Brookswood brought similar rumors to life last week, culminating in a stormy meeting between almost 60 angry parents and district superintendent Dr. Len Sampson. Dancey outlined the basic guidelines he used to judge principals' performances this year for the delegations at the Monday board meeting, and he reminded the parents that many transfers were made to improve educational situations. "1 would like to see a policy in Langley where all principals are moved at least every five years, if not sooner," said Dancey. At their general meeting Monday afternoon, the Langley Teachers' Association voted to approach the school board to establish a joint committee that would recommend hiring and transferring policies. The committee would also come up with a structure for interviewing applicants for administrative positions. IAW1UK Family court By GORDON HARDY Over 400 cases a year of child abuse are reported to the Superintendent of Child Welfare in B.C. and this figure, experts say, represents only the tip of the ice-berg. As the B.C. Child Abuse Team says. "We find it hard to believe that children may be harmed by their own parents or guardians. Yet child abuse or neglect can occur in any family, regardless of education, income, ethnic or racial background." In B.C.. children under 17 are watched over by the Protection of Children Act. Until recently, child abuse meant cruel and unnecessary physical punishment but the definition has been expanded to include physical neglect, emotional deprivation, verbal assault and sexual abuse. Some of these terms have yet to be clarified by a court of law. Usually, actual abuse is preceded by neglect which can mean lack of essential medical care, schooling and nourishment. This is tricky ground, however; as family lawyer Penny Bain writes. "In this province, there is an inclination to impose white middle-class approaches to child- rearing." According to the Child Abuse Team, parents who abuse their children "arc usually frightened, isolated people who wish that they did not abuse their children and who experience intense anguish and guilt about their powcrlessncss to control their behavior." Perhaps the worst aspect of this sad phenomenon is that child- abusers themselves have usually been victims of abuse or neglect as children. As parents they repeat the mistreatment of their own childhood and thus, the problem can carry on generation after generation. Social workers and the courts are trying to break this cruel cycle with firm but compassionate intervention. Vancouver court worker Donna McCarger stresses that child- abusing parents ought not to be afraid of the court's involvement. "We make every effort to help them" she said. "In most cases, their children are left with them." The emphasis in treatment of child abuse is on prevention, counselling and control, rather than on punishment. Il is the Family Court with its informal approach and stress on counselling services that handles cases under the Protection of Children Act. In 1974 a law was passed which makes the reporting of suspected child abuse mandatory for all citizens. A person who reports suspected child abuse to the Department of Human Resources or the police is not liable to any countersuits. An interesting case took place recently in California where a doctor declined to report the parents of a battered child in his care. The child died. The parents arc now suing the doctor for not reporting them. The act gives the authorities the right to apprehend a child that apparently is being abused or neglected. They can also apprehend children for begging or minor juvenile delinquency but McCarger says that 90% of apprehensions take place in child . abuse situations. With prc-school children, it is usually neighbours who complain to the police while with school- age children, it is the teachers who first notice signs of neglect or abuse like welts and bruises or excessive fear of adults or hyperactivity. When a complaint is received, a social worker will investigate as promptly as possible. The prime consideration is the protection of the child but, as facilities for holding children in B.C. are very limited, social workers and the courts try to make the home a safe place for the child rather than take it away. Treatment and counselling arc available for all members of the family. In court, it is often the investigating social worker who will present the case for the Superintendent of Child Welfare. Given the seriousness of the matter, parents arc advised to get a lawyer. In the Unified Family Court areas, a panel consisting of a judge and two persons from the community may hear cases of this sort. In the rest of B.C.. however, a single judge makes the decisions. The court can simply order that the child be returned to its parents under the supervision of the Superintendent for up to 12 months. This is called a supervision order. Or. it can order that the child be placed in the custody of the Superintendent cither temporarily or permanently. When a child is placed in the custody of the Superintendent, it usually stays in a foster home. In many cases, however, an out-of-court agreement is reached by which the parents voluntarily place the child in the custody of the Superintendent for a period of up to a year. The parents have full visiting rights and can have their child returned to them whenever they want. This is called non- ward care. Next week: Impaired Driving.
