Outdoor fires banned MURRAYVILLE - Eleven grass fires in one day that all got out of hand caused the Langley fire prevention officer to slam a ban on all open fires last Thursday. Unfortunately a large segment . of the local populace is not aware of this fact, an alderman said this week, and as a result volunteer firefighters throughout the township are still being called to fires that have been deliberately set but because of the dry and windy conditions got out of hand. "I don't think the public are aware," Aid. Art Brooks said Monday afternoon. Other aldermen didn't seem to know either whether or not the ban was still in effect after the weekend. Fire prevention officer Gordon Yerkie told The Star that the ban on all outdoor fires outside of approved incinerators is still in effect "until we get an appreciable amount of rain." This means that all fire permits have been suspended temporarily. Yerkie said the ban had been announced on radio but unfortunately the announcement was . too late for the print media in the area last week. A barn burned down in the Fort Langley area last week as »Tfli£.!tesult of n brush fire,-lit. said, and other buildings and property had been threatened by the flames. Yerkie said the end of the ban will be announced by his department as well, but it won't be until the ground once again has been doused by rain. Brush fire threatens local car lot ALDERGROVE - A grass fire threatened cars and buildings at Don's Aldercity Motors here Monday afternoon. It was not immediately known how the fire started in the dry grass and scrub brush north of Fraser Highway between Bertrand Creek and Station Road but it spread rapidly south and was soon fed by tires and old car bodies behind Aldercity. Sales people and mechanics managed to move newer cars from the sales lot before they too were engulfed by the flames. Volunteers from the Aldergrove fire department managed to extinguish the fire before it became a threat to the car lot and other buildings in the vicinity. Regents hang on to slim lead for championships ALDERGROVE - Regents this past weekend successfully hung on to their slim one point lead for first place with a decisive 6-1 win over fourth place club Sap- na. It was a fast starting, hard checking game with the Regents striking for three quick goals in the first 15 minutes. The first goal came on a nice shot by Al Sorensen from outside the 18 yard line, catching the top corner of the net. Then shortly afterwards Barry Fatkin scored on a beautiful head ball from in close. The Sapna goalie had no chance of stopping the ball. From this point on the game was completely controlled by the strong aggressive Regent scoring attack with single goals going to Rod Danzychuck, Mike Ishcrwood, Praven Sorensen and Mike Kearney on a penalty shot. The Regent fullbacks played another great game, with honorable mention going to Bill I.un- strom and Irv Janzen for their strong performance on the back line and Wayne Smailenburg on the wing. With a win this Sunday against cross-town rival Aldergrove United II the Regents can clinche first place in their division. Town Talk CORRINE VANDERWERFF Mid RICK McILWAIN This week's question: What would you like to see in Aldergrove in the way of other shopping facilities? What do we need? Should there be any changes? of their sales with the family allowance checks. One thing, they should put in a Y or rec centre for all ages of children, and they should utilize the park grounds year round. They could have toboganning and outdoor skating in the winter. Rita Wlpflli I'd like to see another large food store. We need some changes all right. How about a nice Italian store -- one with European imports? Judl Sumneri The local merchants are nice and the services are fairly adequate, but the dumb town is dying on its feet. How about a mall with some stores in it? The stores in there were fine, but nobody knew they were there. ' We do need competition for the food store, and we need something that caters to the low income group. Aldergrove needs something of a come-on -- some industry. What employment opportunities are there here except in the stores and on the farms. From the looks of thing now, we are going to be just another suburb of Vancouver. Edna URose; We need more department stores. Malls have too many of the specialty shops that don't cater to the lower income. Why is it that something doesn't come in, that should come in, like K-Mart or Zeller's? Why is there not enough industry to make enough jobs? Another thing,. we shouldn't have all these trucks going through town. They should use a different route. They make too much noise, dust, and dirt, and they are dangerous for the . pedestrians and the traffic. Vincent Bdli Let Aldergrove grow normally - natural growth does better all the time. If things went along smoothly, the businesses would grow more smoothly. The taxes and rental prices should be kept down so it is easier for businesses to get started. And we should develop the area with Canadian money. Aldergrove has a lack of competition in the grocery business. m immiM ■■■■ Und» Belli 1 want to see a Safeway in Aldergrove. We also need something like a K-Mart or a Woolco where they keep the prices down. I feel that most ofthe merchants are overpriced. Bernice Dabneyi Another shoe store, another variety store, a department store would bring a lot of business to town. Really, I'm happy with the merchants wc have - and they have a good timing Cliff Brown: We've got almost everything we need. We do all our shopping here since they've opened the mall. I've got no complaints. I'm happy. In fact wc find prices on some things in our own food store here lower than they are in Langley. Anti-litter bylaw proposed ALDERGROVE - Commanding, officer at Canadian' Forces Station Aldergrove, Merv Cameron has received his promotion to commander and will transfer to CFB Halifax in June. Cameron, a lieutenant commander since 1964 came to Aldergrove in August 1976 after having been stationed In Ottawa and with the maritime fleet. As a full commander he will be posted to the admiral's staff In Halifax on June 13. The promotion makes him senior naval officer working in communications In Canada. In his new post Cameron will be overseeing naval movements in the Atlantic as well as Pacific fleet. New commanding officer at QFS Aldergrove will be Lt. commander Phil Johnston who la presently with CFB Halifax. Move the fence.... but very carefully MATSQUI ■ If a fence is on municipal property and it has to be moved to allow for road construction it Is the owner's responsibility to install a new fence, but if a fence is on the property line and it has to be moved to allow for construction, it is municipal responsibility to Install the new fence, a Matsqui resident was told this week. The fence prompting the discussion, a recently installed single-strand Jbarbcd wire fence more than five hundred feet long, is four feet onto municipal property and has to be moved to allow for digging of a road drainage ditch. While the municipality docs not formally allow the construction of farm fences on municipal property the practice occurs and the municipality is spared the upkeep of strips of property bordering farms and farmers have the extra few feet of pasture •- along with the risk of having to move their fence. Owner of the new fence, Mrs. Hill, protested to council the necessity of the new ditch and the moving of the fence. Assured that the new drainage ditch was necessary for the upkeep of Glenmore Road, Hill then voiced her concern about the manner of removal of the fence. In remarks directed toward director of public works Ed Rcgts. she said that single strand wire is impossible to use again if rolled and that she had seen too many cows die from eating hardware. "If you tear the fence down, don't roll the 'wire -- lay it carefully in the field." She instructed. "Put the staples in the ditch and be careful not to break the poles." Council voted to proceed with the Glenmore Road ditching as proposed by the public works department. MURRAYVILLE - Fast food outlets were slammed by a township alderman here this week for their peculiar way of advertising. Utter along roadsides and in ditches, bearing the marks of famous brand name food outlets was described by Aid. Elford Nundal as their "advertising program." Once discarded by careless littcrbugs from passing cars the packages, cartons, bottles and bags remain sitting alongside the road proudly proclaiming the names of the various outlets. It stays there until it is scooped up by works crews. Nundal put the blame on the food outlets for not policing the disposal of the empty containers. "Wc arc tired of picking up their bloody garbage," he said, referring to the hamburger joints. "Someone should contact them and voice our complaint," agreed Aid. Bill Blair. Aid. Art Brooks also nodded agreement. As a resident of Aldergrove he zeroed in on this community by saying that "there is a horrible mess around that town. But I don't know how wc can clean it up." Blair suggested the municipality consider the introduction of an anti-litter bylaw similar to' legislation enacted in the states of Washington and Oregon. Another method to combat the problem, he said, might be by putting out more litter containers along urban streets. "Somehow we have to get the message across, not to litter," he stated. Nundal then reminded Blair of their school days at Langley high when "the principal got the message across very well -- he administered It down In the furnace room." There is a trail of discarded food and drink containers leading from convenience stores and fast food outlets in the downtown area to the schools, aldermen said. ■_______■ ___■ 2A THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 1979 Lions Club granted beer garden ALDERGROVE • Local Lions club has been granted permission by township council to stage a beer garden on May 24 to be held in conjunction with a ball tournament. Council vote for permission MURRAYVILLE ■ Council here voted Monday afternoon to give a $25 grant to Outdoors Un- littered for their Pitch-in 1979 program. Membership in the non-profit organizations costs $100 for a city, $25 for a town, and $10 for a village. FCouncilors decided that they must fall under the middle category. What do we get for our money, asks Aldergrove businessman Grove Hill applies for license ALDERGROVE • Grove Hill Training Centre at 2909 - 260 Street here has applied to Langley district council for a permanent liquor license for their members' lounge. At present the equestrian centre is obtaining a permit every other week. The license would be limited to the use of members, participants in riding events and their guests. MURRAYVILLE - A delegate to council Monday afternoon, asking for the reason for business licenses and why they are more expensive in Langley district than in neighboring Matsqui- Abbotsford and Langley city, found an ally in Aid. Elford Nundal. "What do we actually get for the money?" asked Franz Langmann of the Aldergrove Book Store. "Is it put back into the town of Aldergrove?" "Yes, what does this man1 actually get for his $64.?" asked Nundal. "Police and fire protection," tried Aid. Jock Lindsay, council's protection committee chairman. It was quickly pointed out by other councilors that this money not in any way was earmarked for such purposes and Aid. Art Brooks added that council had enacted the bylaw setting out the fees to be paid by merchants on the recommendation of its license department. "I think this mart has a legitimate complaint," said Nundal. "If so, so has everyone else," said Brooks. "But I know that is the way you feel about it." "That is the way I feel," said Nundal. "I realize this is one of your pet peeves," answered Brooks. Acting mayor Brooks said the - money collected from businesses in Aldergrove. did not go back into the community any more than license fees from Fort Langley or Murrayville went back into those communities. "It goes into general revenue," he stated. Langmann pointed out that he did not come before council to seek personal consideration but rather to ask why the license fees for all business enterprises were higher in this district than in neighboring muncipilaties. Nundal has been against this levy of an additional charge against business people ever since he first came on council. Porent assistance appreciated in schools By GARY WALKER For a number of years now parents have volunteered their assistance in schools. Their assistance is greatly valued by the schools using such help. In the past, parents have not actively volunteered their help to the schools but instead tended to be uninvolved or were not asked to assist. In the last 10 years though, parents have shown keener and more active interest in schools. At the elementary level this increased interest is evidenced with more and more parents volunteering some of their time assisting in education. Today, when one walks Into a school, the adults seen are not necessarily teachers - they could well be parents involved , volunteer activities. What can a volunteer patent do to assist in a school? The list would be both varied and lengthy, but in general, parents Parant volunteer library aide, Marilyn Packham, helps Murrayville youngster Debbie McCartney In using a card catalogue. assist in education by doing tasks that allow teachers to spend less time doing non- instruction types of activities.' Teachers are very appreciative of this help and therefore have extra time to help individual students, sponsor extra curric- ular activities or just have a moment for a cup fo coffee at recess. ■ Murrayville elementary is one of school district 35's schools that actively seeks parent help and really appreciates its volunteers. Some of the tasks these parents do for us are: telephoning other parents: helping with fitness testing; working with our learning assistance teacher in helping youngsters with special needs; assisting in French classes; aiding in the library; organizing and running hot dog days; helping with supervision on field trips; pur- casing equipment for the school; putting together and building such projects as our adventure playground; working with youngsters on arts and crafts activities; doing special cooking projects; transporting youngsters to games; serving as resource people for social studies units and much more.

How does a school go about involving its parents? Simple, ask. Sometimes parents are reluctant to give of their time or don't know that there is a need for volunteer assistance in our public schools. EArly in the year at Murrayville we send out a return form for parents to complete indicating their willingness to help us out. They also indicate in what area they would like to assist. Volunteer lists are then tallied into help areas such as transportation, library aides, telephoning, etc. Parents are then personally contacted and also thanked in our school newsletter. Also, it is always gratifying to know that most of our parents, when called upon for a special request, are usually willing to "pitch In" with their assistance. In a day and age when schools are often susceptible to public concern and criticism, it behooves a school to actively involve as many parents as possible in assisting it in some capacity. With such involvement, not only are parents fulfilling a desire on their part to help others, they are kept much more Informed of the programs and the general "life" of our educational institutions. ALDERGROVE - Langley MLA, health minister Bob McClelland, told a public meeting In the Legion hall here last week that he would prefer to retain his position on the B.C. provincial cabinet environment and land use committee and therefore chose not to comment directly on the appeal by Gloucester Properties presently before the committee. Gloucester Is seeking removal of almost 800 acres in the North County Line area from the agricultural land reserve In order to prepare the land for an industrial park. Appeal is the company's last recourse since the application was turned down by the B.C. land commission last winter. Plans for the Fraser Industrial Estates park have been circulated from one government bureaucracy to another for the past three years. Initially approved by Langley district they were scuttled by the Central Fraser Valley regional district after almost one full year of paper shuffling. Hard pressed, the regional directors later reversed their stand by allowing application to be forwarded to the next level, the land commls- cion. Here It was rotated from one desk to another during the better part ot 1978 before It was finally turned down.

Gary Lee Ling, the president of the association, states in a letter to council that the chain food stores "have begun to operate on Sundays as well as in the evenings in Langley much to the distress of the corner grocery store merchants." He continues, "As you must be aware the independents do bulk of their business on Sundays and after 6 p.m." Ling, of Surrey, says the more than 200 members of the association arc seriously worried about their future if the larger stores are allowed to remain open evenings and weekends. Councilors referred the letter this week to their administration committee. '« 5jff. If- K||a- . NEW, BIG GROUNDS MAINTENANCE TRACTOR FROM FORD!

The challenge program, a contractual learning experience that can be both integrated with and added to the regular school curriculum, involves the student in counsel with his teacher and his parents etting learning goals that go beyond his actual classroom experience. "It's amazing how little students actually know about the adult world," Phillips told the audience, and through challenge educaiton students will, he suggested, be better prepared for the adult life and the world of work as well as feeling a greater sense of self-worth because of their accomplishments. Stressing the idea of pursuing Duguid, Noftall and Proctor seek N.D.P. excellence, Phillips outlined the program which he has been involved with that has the student contract to accomplish something In each of the given areas - adventure, creativity, logical inquiry, volunteer service, practical skills, cognitive development, and the world of work - something that interests and challenges them.

The meeting enabled the three candidates to reveal and clarify their positions regarding various issues in the anticipated forthcoming provincial election. All three candidates agreed that the main political issues were - the economy, unemployment, inflation and high taxes. Steve Duguid believes "We need an alternative industrial strategy for B.C. and Canada. These times of inflation and high unemployment are not temporary. Foreign ownership and resource exploitation are hurting our economy. This is not new. It has been building over the last twenty years and we are entering a period of crisis." The candidates concur that the tax base has shifted from corporations to the individual tax- . payer. As a result, schools, hos. pitals, day-care centers and other social services are feeling the pinch, they say. Duguid stated, "Foreign investors come here, use our banks and borrow our money to buy our businesses. After they have made a profit, they take the money out . of the country." When queried about the distribution of the five free British Columbia Resources Investment Corporation's shares, Archie '.Proctor replies, "They're only giving us what we already own." He added ". . .there are a number of people who have lost their identification and who cannot read or write. These people will not be able to receive their shares." John Noftall stated, "The ordinary, everyday person will not be able to afford to buy the additional shares after the first five have been given away. The additional shares will be bought up by big investors and the corporation will fall into the hands of big business.". The question of the proposed provincial dental plan prompted Noftall to remark, "It is an, N.D.P. platform policy. It depends on how it is administered." When the trio was questioned, it was brought out that the dental plan was an old N.D.P. policy that dated back to 1924 under the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (C.C.F.). The Issuance of free shares and the dental plan were considered to be nothing more than vote<buying. The successful candidate will be chosen at a nominating meet, arranged for April 11 in the Langley civic centre. Gary Lauk, a former minister In the Barrett ^government -will be the guest ^speaker. applicable areas, he may request his teacher to allow him credit for his accomplishments. "By setting up these challenge areas, the parent, the home, and the community become part of the school and the student is encouraged to explore the unfamiliar and to cope with the new," Phillips said. Emphasis is placed on the student "doing for himself," and when the contract is set up, he is encouraged to make necessary arrangements for activities himself because this gives a greater sense of responsibility for carrying through with the tasks, Phillips explained. The contract may be a very private, individual thing which, for Instance, a student could use to set as one of his goals to overcome his extreme shyness, or it could be a group experience situation which involves several students working together on projects. The adventure area of the contract allows the student to try something -- usually some outdoor activity such as mountain climbing or canoeing -- which he has never experienced before.' The creativity area inlcudes experiences in music or the arts and could involve learning to play a musical instrument or learning some form of visual art. ' "The importnat aspect of the logical inquiry section is that the student learns how to find answers," says Phillips. To do this, he chooses an area in which he wants to achieve expertise and then sets a process and goes about finding his answers. "Somehow," he continued, "we have lost our sense of service, and this is the area where students have the hardest time to get started." But he added that once student experience that good feeling that comes with helping others, it is contagious. Practical skills, as Phillips explained them, include learning to do everyday household repairs such as fixing a leaky faucet, or learning car maintenance or sewing or cooking or office and other skills; skills which will be valuabe to him as an individual. "Cognitive development -- the academic aspect - continues to be the most important area of schooling," he admitted. In this, the student may set as his level of excellence a goal of improving in a particular subject area where has previously been weak, or he may set making the honor roll as his goal. In contracting for an experience in the world of work, Phillips says, the students chooses to investigate some occupation which interests him. Usually community members are glad to have someone who is truly interested in learning about their occupations, he says. These experiences usually begin with some sort of volunteer work, but often grow into paid work experiences. In initially setting up the challenge contracts, Phillips says they begin by asking the student the question "How would you like to be different a year from now as a result of school?" In the process of being asked this, the student is also asked to view himself as he expects to be as an adult in looks, actions, skills, etc., and bring that ideal down to what he can accomplish toward his goal during the school year. Through taking part in a challenge program Phillips says that many under-achievers in school show dramatic improvement in theier academic work. The academic improvement is naturally not so marked for the already superior student, but the program offers opportunity for enrichment and experience which is not normally included in the traditional educational concept. One of the greatest benefits of the program, Phillips emphasized, is that the student becomes self-motivated and acheives a sense of self-worth an appreciation of his uniqueness as an Individual. Review of bylaw draft requires second meeting MURRAYVILLE - Following a public hearing here Monday afternoon concerning the township's propose bylaw number 1853, councilors decided to return the bylaw draft to planning department.

Bill Blair's suggestion this week that roadside littering be curbed by the Introduction of an anti-litter ordinance along the line of legislation enacted in various U.S. states has considerable merit. Unfortunately, It seems, when a good Idea like this Is voiced It is allowed to remain as such. Seldom is it expanded upon or brought to realization. Councilors don't like littering and neither do we. Probably very few people really do, and that might even Include some of the litterbugs themselves. How to stop It though, that Is the question. Blair also suggested this week that litter containers might be the answer. We don't think so. Here in Aldergrove we have for some years had a number of 45-gallon barrels placed along the main street. Seldom are they used.or If they are then they almost Inevitably end up turned upside down, their contents spread along the streets. No, the only answer is to hit back at the despollers of the environment where It hurts the most, aiming at their pocketbooks. If a would-be lltterbug was to be reminded by a posted sign that his actions could result In, say, a $500 fine, then we are willing to bet that he or she would think twice before throwing that garbage alongside a road or at any other public meeting place. If such legislation was introduced it should of course also be vigorously enforced. In this aspect, as In most other affairs In life, money really speaks. I don't complain — but I don't come back You know me. I'm a nice tourist. I never complain, no matter what kind of service I get. I'll go in a restaurant and sit and sit while the waitress gossips with her boy friend and never bothers to see if my hamburger is ready. Sometimes someone who came in after I did gets my hamburger, but I don't say a word. If the soup is cold or the cream for the coffee is sour, I'm nice about it. If the service station attendant fails to check my oil or polish my windshield, 1 don't even raise my eyebrow. When I go into a store and get surly treatment and lack of sympathy with my browsing around, I don't make a fuss. When I register at a motel or hotel, I'm thoughtful of the other person. If I get a snooty manager who gets nettled because I want to look at my room before making up my mind, I'm polite as can be. I don't believe rudeness in return is the answer. You might say I wasn't raised that way. And it's seldom I complain about the poor room service, the broken-down elevator, the leaking bathtub faucet or the television set that doesn't work. I've found people arc always disagreeable to me when I do. Life's too short for indulging in these unpleasant little scrimmages. I never kick. I never nag, . I never criticize. I wouldn't dream of making a scene, as I've seen other people do in public places. I'm a nice touristl I'll tell you what else I am. I'M THE TOURIST WHO NEVER COMES BACK!! That's my revenge for getting pushed around. That's why I take whatever they hand out ... I know I'm not coming back. It's true that this doesn't relieve my feelings right off, but in the long run, it's a far more deadly revenge. in fact, a nice tourist like me, multiplied by others of my kind, can just about ruin a business. And there are a lot of nice tourists in the world. When we get pushed far enough we go down the street to another, restaurant. We eat hamburgers in places that are smart enough to hire help who appreciate nice tourists. Together, we do the rude people out of millions of dollars every year. The ones who laugh best, they say, are the ones who laugh last. I laugh when I see places frantically spending their money on promotions just to get me back, when they could have held me in the first place with a few kind words and a smile. Before we begin any detailed analysis of the federal election May 22, let's understand one thlno: the Liberal Party Is dead in British Columbia. Its old guard Is about to vanish under a sea of deep seated hatred for the Trudeau administration, and Its new recruits are few, and very, very, far between. Pundits are saying that British Columbia and southern Ontario will decide who forms the government in this one. No gigantic changes are expected in the Atlantic region, save for a slight rally by the NDP. Quebec is splid Liberal, unless Social Credit Is revived under its new leader, Fabian Roy, and the prairie provinces are a veritable barren land for Grit vote seekers. Southern Ontario, and particularly metropolitan Toronto will be Inundated with overtures from both the Liberals and the Conservatives, and most of these overtures will bear the faintly ironic ring of a new national energy policy. Anything goes where' petroleum Is concerned, and Joe Clark is as likely to advocate government takeover of the industry as he is to suggest more staunchly right wing proposals If It means winning the election. In British Columbia, his success or failure will be finally decided. The biggest nemesis facing the Conservatives In this campaign Is a revitalized NDP under the direction of a leader who is winning the credibility race with Clark. Prior to 1974, there were 16 NDP seats in British Columbia. A concerted anti-socialist campaign launched to down the Barrett government had some Interesting side effects GREG THOMAS Here and now with Cory On the track of the cuckoo on the national scene, and the party lost all but two of its seats,' those held by Stu Leggatt, and Tommy Douglas. In the words of fdrmer Vancouver Sun staffer Rod Mlckleburg, there's just no way the NDP will remain at two seats. How well they succeed in competing with the Conservatives for the remnants of Liberal power In this province will determine who forms the government. Currently, In 23 constituencies throughout the province, there are 13 Tories, 2 NDP members, and 8 Lib-' erals. With Liberal fortunes as already described, only flamboyant backbencher Simma Holt and lona Camp- agnola of the national Jockstrap and Lottery department stand a chance of holding on to their jobs. Along with, the remaining six Liberal seats, there are an additional five created by riding redistribution, for a total of 11 up for grabs. Both NDP members are retiring,, making for Interesting races in 13 of 28 ridings. In the tight standings bound to emerge from the May vote, thirteen seats could make the difference between a Tory government, or a Liberal government, with the NDP holding the balance of power. Several factors must be considered before anyone can predict an NDP resurgence. The first is the relative popularity, or obscurity, of the provincial NDP. The 1974 election saw many good federal MP's go down to personal defeat largely because of public antagonism towards the premier of the day, Dave Barrett. Now, Barrett has returned to the role of an unassuming opposition leader. The government that turned so many dyed-in-the- wool NDP supporters away from the party Is no longer in power. Second, the resilience of the NDP's party machinery must also be tested. After virtual destruction, a la 1974, many 'parties take years to recover. In British Columbia, at least, momentum is on the side of the Conservatives. Since the first Trudeau election, in 1968, when there were no Tory MP's at all, the party has managed to win a majority of seats in the fickle, province, and organizers feel the phoenix has yet to rise to Its zenith before the inevitable downfall comes. Every vote in this election, save for those of a few committed souls, is an anti- Liberal vote, and It remains for each of the anti-Liberal parties to show who can collect them the best. 'Two years ago he was considered cheap, now he's called energy conscious.' Actually it was then and there, but every year about this time when the sap(s) start to flow and birdwatching friends go all out with their binoculars and bird books and bird lists, I remember. ■ It all began early - very early - one morning in France. I woke up. No, actually, I was awakened. Struggling to focus my senses In that gray-dawn light, seeping through cracks in the shutters, I wondered at what I heard. I poked my husband, "I think I hear one." "Ughmmnn..." He groaned and rolled over. I poked him again -- a good elbow in the ribs, this time. "I do hear one!" "I wanna sleep." His message was clear even if his words were not. I listened again, but what I strained to hear was gone. Later that morning, at a more opportune time, I ventured the conversation again. "I'm sure I heard a cuckoo this morning." "It's going to rain," he replied. I looked out the window. Little droplets already fell from the cloud-shroud swathing the mountaintop. "I notice," I retorted. "Just because you grew up listening to cuckoos..." "I mean," he interrupted patiendy, "that when a cuckoo sings, it's a sign of rain." "Always?" ' He shrugged, "That's what they say. Anyway, we'll need our umbrellas today." I could have launched into a lengthy diatribe about how since we had lived in France there had been inumerable days we had needed umbrellas and how I had never heard a cuckoo • before and how..But it was the Sabbath day and we were getting ready for church. Anyway, what did I know about cuckoos? "I heard a cuckoo this morning," I announced proudly to some American student friends we saw later in the day. "How nice..." "Yes," I repeated. "I heard a cuckoo, a real, live cuckoo -- one that said cuc-koo.." Something about the way they were looking at me penetrated my enthusiasm. "It was very early," I added lamely. "It woke me up. Something for you birdwatchers." 1 looked at a tall, lanky, Canadian with the group. "Sure. Got my bird-book right here." He flipped through the well-worn pages. "Right here... The European Cuckoo." An unimpressive, drab-gray bird stared up from the page. "We're going up the mountain - birding. Coming along?" 1 shook my head emphatically. I thought they knew that I did not climb and that I did not bird. But as the days slippped by, I By CORRINE VANDERWERFF became more and more aware of that cuckoo. A few mornings later that persistent far-off call wakened me again. Slipping out of bed, I tiptoed to the window, unbolted the shutters and pushed them back on their complaining hinges. I could resist no longer. Shouldering my recorder, I headed out into the morning. Even as a non-bird watcher, I was impressed with the ubiquitous bird population of the Haute-Savoie region. The air literally vibrated with birds' choral exhaltations. Chirps, trills, warbles, blended into full chorus, filling the morning. But my cuckoo was gone. I wandered about the mountainside, listening, hoping for another call. Instead, I heard footsteps pounding along the path. Our birdwatching friend rounded into view •- out for his morning run. "Are you getting the habit, too?" he called, slowing. "Oh, I was awake early and since it was so nice, 1 thought I'd go for a litte walk." I tried to sound casual. "It is a beautiful morning," he responded cheerfully. His gaze settled on my recorder. I saw a question on his face, but I volunteered no explanation. I didn't care to admit it to anyone, but that cuckoo intrigued me. He called at the most unexpected times, his monotonous refrain being taken up by the second and a yet further distant third bird. But I could find neither he nor his friends. I turned- to the library for information. "A shy, slender, insect-eating tree bird about twelve inches long," 1 read, "the European Cuckoo whose call is widely imitated by clock birds, gives the name to the more that 100 species family." 1 expected what followed, but somehow I had hoped it would not be there. "Like the cow bird," I read, "this cuckoo is a social parasite, laying its eggs in other birds' nests. Each female confines herself to a small area and specializes in a particular species of foster parents. She watches the other birds build their nest, then while they're away,. she removes one of their eggs' and lays one of her own. She lays up to twelve eggs, each one in a different nest." My cuckoo continued calling - luring me up the mountainside. But I knew 1 would never find any flock of cuckoos - these birds are loners keeping within their own territory •• and I knew I would be lucky if I even found him since his are the shy kind. .1 did know something of his history, though. Within about twelve days after his mother had chosen his foster parents, he had hatched - an ungainly fellow with a troublesome back. For several days if anything, touched that sensitive spot, he would arch upward, and by the time he was over his touchiness, he had unnested all his wriggly foster brothers and sisters. He grew quickly, and though now an Only child, he kept his adopted mother and father hard on the wing supplying his voracious appetite. I could not whole-heartedly approve of his parents shrugging off their patently responsibilities and leaving his up-bringing to the good-heartedness of their smaller neighbors, but I realized their days were so filled with devouring the bristly caterpillars their neighbors couldn't stomach - along with volumes of other insect pests - that they had no time for the younger generation. By the time I first heard him, cuckoo had spent at least one winter abroad in Africa - where all good cuckoos winter - and his new.-found wife was busy choosing foster parents for their own children. Our time in France grew shorter. I couldn't bear to leave without having something tangible to remember my cuckoo. I kept my casette recorder with me constantly. Just when I was sure to get him on tape -live and in person - one of those three-cylinder French jobs would come roaring around the bend, or there'd be some group loudly disputing on a nearby cafe terrace. Determined to get a good recording, I began leaving my recorder, set to go, on the window-ledge at night. Early one morning my plan worked. I recorded fifteen minutes of uninterrupted cuckooing with a myriad of feathered songsters doing background accompaniment. Back home, during my first lecture about life abroad, my little friend made his debut -- on tape. I waited for everyone to be properly impressed, but somehow they were not responding. Finally I said, "I recorded this bird at five o'clock one morning." "Bird?" someone questioned. "1 thought It was a clock." "It's a real cuckoo!" I answered proudly. I still have the recording. Along in April when the cuckoos return to Europe from their winter in Africa, folks know it is nearly summer. The plaintive rhythm of that call echoing through the woods has inspired poets and musicians. Poets call it the "herald of summer:" Beethoven put one in his "Pastoral Symphony." Maybe I am neither poet nor musician, but that bird inspired me, too. Now when folks ask, "Are you a birdwatcher?" 1 still say, "No." Then I hesitate and add, "but once there was a cuckoo..." LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A piece of the rock is not security Let's share and pull together Editor. The Star, Sir, in January Premier Bennett told the people of B.C. that he was offering them "a piece of the rock", five shares in B.C. Resources Investment Corporation worth $10 or more apiece. In March he said that although the underlying book value of the shares was $12 he was offering British Columbians the chance to buy 5,000 each at $6, which he called "a once-in- a-lifctime opportunity." Coming from the premier of the province, that is a pretty powerful sales pitch, but before jumping at the "opportunity" to buy additional shares everyone should read the prospectus pub lished by B.C.R.l.C. in connection with the share issue. It is available at every place where you can make application for the shares, and it does not contain any claim that the shares are a bargain. The prospectus states, in part, as follows: RISK FACTORS AFFECTING COMMON SHARES "The common shares arc not guaranteed in any manner by the province of British Columbia or any other government, nor has any government any direct or indirect obligation with respect to them. "Future prices of the common shares will be determined by such factors as the selling intentions of persons receiving free common shares from the province, the general economic climate, conditions in financial markets and the success or otherwise of B.C.R.l.C. and its subsidiaries in attaining their objectives. "Since B.C.R.l.C. has only recently commenced operations, potential projects and investments in which B.C.R.l.C. may participate or which may be acquired by it are not yet known. In addition results results experienced by B.C.R.l.C. subsidiaries over the past five years are not necessarily indicative of future performance.

' Editor, The Star, Sir, Recent newspaper coverage of alleged statements of an RCMP spokesman regarding the House of Concord in Langley, has prompted the following statement by Langley RCMP. The local detachment is as concerned as' the neighbors of the immediate area of Concord with the increasing numbers of AWOL's and in some cases their subsequent Involvement in committing crimes such as breaking, entering and theft, auto theft and a few cases of vandalism. The crime rate in the area near the House of Concord is still lower than in most areas of the municipality. Up to 80 percent of reported crimes In the immediate area, approximately two miles of the surrounding area of Concord, can be attributed to boys from the school, however, that percentage represents a minimal number of offences committed in that area and would include offences committed within the school and the reported number of AWOLs There have been no robberies involving AWOLs in the area of Concord. Displeasure has been voiced by those members of Langley RCMP detachment who police the Concord area, relating to the numbers of AWOLs, as they add to the already heavy workload of the police. Langley detachment is satisfied that the' House of Concord is being run by a competent staff. Meetings Involving the Concord staff and the police have been held in the past and other meetings are scheduled in an effort to identify, discuss and attempt to solve problems of mutual concern. Ungley RCMP representations can be made as to the future influence of these factors on prices of B.C.R.l.C.'s common shares." In short, the prospectus warns investors that they are entrusting their money not to the government but to a group of private individuals who will invest it in ways not yet decided on projects that may or may not make a profit, and no one is guaranteeing anything. ' Before risking any money they can't afford to lose, people not familiar with the stock market would be wise to consult with a broker as to whether he would recommend these shares as the best buy available to them. Normally people promoting the sale of stocks are forbidden by law from claiming that shares will be worth more than they are offered for. Apparently the premier can get away with It, and a lot of innocent people believe he somehow stands behind what he says. He doesn't. Apply for your "free" shares by all means. It Is the only way to avoid losing what you have already paid for. But as to buying more shares, give that the same careful consideration as any other speculative investment. Yours truly, Vic Stephens, MIA Leader B.C. Conservative Party Editor, The Star, Sir, I am an old age pensioner who has lived in the Aldergrove district for 33 years but lately I have noticed that this community Is really going downhill. Everybody Is complaining. I, too, have complaints, but I would like to be fair to all and not pick only on one particular group. Let us start with the little ones, they drive their bikes all over the road and usually they have their pet dogs with them, or they are horseback riders with their dogs following along. Those of us who have dogs know they don't like these strange dogs entering their territories so a big fight follows. Then we have to bring our dogs to the animal clinic and that sure costs money. If it is too noisy for a disco in town, why don't they build a big place for it a little out of town and they could have nights for the younger ones who still go to school and other nights for the little older ones. Whether they are in their teens, their twenties or thirties Or perhaps older, most people like to go to dances and have fun. There have to be places for them all to go or they will leave Aldergrove completely and thereby make things even worse. Why Is It that nobody has the right to do or build or open a place? I never heard of this a long time ago. I always thought It was a free Canada, but today what is freedom? Our merchants should,treat their customers better. There are many who feel that they aren't being treated very nice. Unless there is a change people are just -not going to shop locally. We are driving some of the working class away from here because there just isn't any work for' them. Those that are left have to pay the highest taxes in perhaps all of Canada. Then we have some elderly people who would gladly sell a piece of their land to their children in order to have them near and help them along, but again the answer is: you cannot do that. You cannot cut up your land, sell it all or none, is the answer. Well, after you gave your all for a place, worked it and put a lot of money into it, you just would like to live there yourself for the rest of your life. There is no relenting on the part of authority and In the meantime you family moves to another province in order to make a living. You are left behind to pay exorbitant taxes for land you can't properly look after any longer. Nothing seems to make sense anymore, I also know what they mean when they talk about holes in the road, there are some here, on our own road where a big dog could be buried In. Think of the elderly with poor eyesight, or the very young. They could easily stumble Into one of these holes and hurt themselves badly. They seem to have money for all sorts of other things, but do you think that at least once or twice a month they could bus old age pensioners in to town. There are a few who still live in the country. No. sir. Who cares how or if we get our groceries or ever get it to see our doctor. All they want is our taxes and then some more taxes. We must learn to. work together so we can live together in this place called Aldergrove. We must all do our little bit or the place is just going to become a ghost town. Who would like that? There Is room for improvement all over. If the young people like to go dancing I can't see why we should stop them. Let them have their fun, it doesn't bother me. We all need each other, we must all do our share and pull together. Unless we do just that Aldergrove will continue to go downhill. We should all help each other, not put obstructions In the way. If someone has the money to build a new business, welcome that party Instead of chasing him away. The young mother who wrote on March 21 (Life cycle doesn't change) sure hit the nail right on the head, we should help other people be they young or old. Or how would we pensioners feel some day when we stand In front of the pearly gates and It was said that the place was too loud for us and the young ones were already there? Things can be worked out if we will only cooperate in such a way that everyone has a place to go to be It for work or recreation. If only sometimes we will stop to think of others instead of always considering ourselves first and last. Yours truly, SUSANNE SUBER.

LEHMAN - Saying that it would be dangerous for council to set such a precendent, Matsqui aldermen again reiterated their stand Monday against granting $3,500 toward the creation of an adventure playground on Mt. Lehman elementary school grounds. "It's splitting hairs whether it is or isn't on school grounds," protested Mt. Lehman PTA fund-raising chairman Sara Shadbolt. "It fills the needs for a communtiy park." "It is totally outside of our jurisdiction or responsibility," responded Aid. Chris Lamb. "Council would be making a mistake to equip school grounds." "It would be a precendent worth considering," suggested Shadbolt. "Matsqui could have the best string of small parks of any municipality in Canada." With only about 50 families in the area, the Mt. Lehman PTA has committed itself to construe- . tion of a $10,000 adventure playground on the school grounds which would not only serve the needs' of the school children but would also serve the community through Inclusion of a fitness circuit. Because of Its broader aspect of serving the total community, the PTA has been asking the municipality for a grant to cover one third of the cost. Another one-third would then be covered by provincial grant and the final third would be picked up the the PTA group themselves. The district school board, in accordance with established policy, does not contribute to the development of adventure playgrounds but leaves this to the individual school's constituents on the grounds that the individuals who build it will take more pride in keeping it "good." But the school board, also In accordance with established policy, will maintain the playground once it is constructed. The "park" would thus be a bargain to the municipality, Shadbolt claims, because for a $3,500 investment the municipality could have a $10,000 park which someone else would maintain. ••:•','; , -.-■■ Weather report 1979 DATE Mar. 19 Mar. 20 Mw. 21 Mar. 22 Mar. 23 Mar. 24 Mar. 25 By NORM GREEN MAX. 16.6-0 16.1 18.»* 20.2" 18.5— 1S.0 10.2 MIN. -2.0 -2.0 -1.S ■0.5 ■0.8 •1.0 0.0 * Record highs lor dale.

Close call for the Hearts ALDERGROVE - Hearts played host to Langley in division 5A league action on Saturday and carried their hosting duties just too far by giving the visitors three goals to share the points. This was to be another game the Hearts would play without regular defencemen Purvis and Burns who were away for the weekend. Hearts were out for a victory to assure themselves of staying in "A" division for next season and for the first twenty minutes Langley were hemmed in their own half. A goal had to come but unfortunately for the Hearts it was Langley who scored. A high ball from the Langley defence sailed over the Hearts defence, the badly bouncing ball could not be controlled by Phil Anderson and it found itself in the Hearts' net. Hearts came right back and applied continuous pressure but could not get a goal until one minute before the half time whistle when Ron Hunt blasted home the tying goal. Half time score Hearts 1 • Langley 1. . The second half saw the Aldergrove boys continue to dominate play and it only took them ten minutes to go ahead with a good goat from Billy Clark. Langley had two good chances after this but Phil Anderson came from nowhere to clear both break-aways. The Hearts were still causing lots of havoc in the Langley area and on one of Billy Clark's corner kicks Ron Hunt was on hand to flick the ball home. At this point Hearts became too confident with their two goal lead and in the last five minutes allowed Langley to break through and score two easy goals to steal a point. This was a bad finish to a good game for the Hearts who dominated the game for at least fifty of the sixty minutes. Apart from that last ten minutes it was a great effort by the Hearts and hopefully their win last week and the tie this week will be enough to keep them in "A" division next year. Special mention to Perry Ferguson who assisted on all three goals and Phil Anderson who remained strong in defence. Final Hearts 3 • Langley 3. Aldergrove clinches championship ALDERGROVE - On Saturday at Sullivan Park Aldergrove Aces met S.U. Pirates in the deciding game for the league championship. The first meeting between these two teams early in the season resulted in a 3 ■ 0 victory for the Pirates - the only loss suffered during league play by the Aces. In fact prior to Saturday only two goals had been scored against the Pirates in league play. However, this time the Aces played a fine game to beat the Pirates 3-0 and so won the league title. The game was very evenly contested and the score docs not reflect the closeness of the play. ALDER LANES The Aces scored twice in the first half - the first by Stewart Papkc on a pass by Jimmy McDonald and the second by Robbie Klynsoon after a high cross ball from Papke. The best goal of the game came in the second half. Following some accurate passing by the Aces in mid-field, Klynsoon split the Pirates' defence with a long through-pass to Papke who controlled the ball and drove it low to the far corner of the net, giving the goal-keeper no chance. The Pirates continued to press and almost scored towards the end of the game. However, the Aces' defence led by Ryan Sahlsten and ably supported by Greg Burdett and Mike Morraal held firm. Jimmy McDonald and David Reid were a constant threat on the forward line, whilst Peter Wulowka, Todd Wautier and Ian Caldwell gave good protection to their goalie, Jason Fennellow who managed to record another shut-out. The substitutes were Jason CurreU and Robbie Anderson. These two teams meet again in Newton on April 7 in the cup final and another exciting game is assured.

Ledbrook will be writing a weekly column for The Star recording the White Caps' exploits. Aldergrove Freezers 2- S.U. Streakers 2 By LEW CHAMBERS ALDERGROVE • Last Saturday Aldergrove Freezers continued their battle for the league positions and the game ended in a tie at the end of regulation time. The first half saw Freezers doing most of the pressing but ' they just could not find an opening in the strong Streakers defence and it was the latter who opened the scoring in one of their few attacks on the Freezers goal. The local lads played well and although there were some mistakes made the game would not be soccer if such mistakes were not present. In fact mistakes or errors are common to any team sport. It is the writer's opinion that the Freezers were giving it all they had and this goes for everyone on the field and in actual fact it was a game worth watching. Just before the half way mark Freezers managed to equalise with a goal by Joey Talbot. In the second half the Streakers put on the pressure but Aldergrove were not letting them get away with anything and there was some good defence work on the part of Tim Wulowka and David Lewthwaite. Aldergrove took the lead early in the second half with a splendid goal by Murrey Barry who, picking up the ball near the half way line, made a fine run down the right wing and ended it with a fine shot right on target. The Freezers held on to this lead until about five minutes before the end of the game when they unfortunately had to concede a penalty and the Streakers made no mistake with this windfall. All in all the two teams were evenly matched and the result was fair. We now have two league games left, one against the Riverdale Sting, who we also meet in the cup game in April, and the other against Whalley Excelsiors. At this point we still have a good chance of winning the league it seems and we know we can rely on the Freezers to try their hardest in these last two games. King elementary students ol cultural activities program, prepare lor skiing trip as part Rick Mcllwaln photo Cultural activities raise grades Aldergrove Cents v Riverdale Rangers By GEORGE MAILER ALDERGROVE - It was the final day of the season for the Cents and one filled with lots of surprises. Although missing a few regulars the home team ended up winners by 3 - 0. Cory Brezde and Robert Staire took over the fullback slots and, played a remarkable' game clearing their lines well. Russel Staire had to be sharp on one occasion coming off his line to smother a rising shot. As usually happens the Cents were quick to take advantage of the let off and Jef Englund made a nice pass to Tim Pankratz who fed Nicky Sabo. Nicky who had been robbed on two earlier trips was not lo be denied a third time and scored his eleventh goal of the season. The home team forced IS corners in a row and were on top when the whistle ended the first half. The second half was a lively period with the midficld play by Glarroix, D. Sodderholm, J. Matzlar showing a lot of the old form which enabled the Cents to win the league championship for the 78 - 79 season. , Nicky Sabo passed to Brian j Blattman who sidestepped the j oncoming defender to place the ball away from the goalie to give Aldergrove a two goal lead. .Brian was to find the mark a second time when John Matzlar made a nice play getting the ball over from the wing. Brian made no mistake for his sixth goal of the season. Although the Cents were to keep up the pressure till the final whistle the score regained the same. At this point I would like to thank all the boys and their parents especially team manager Roy Baker for his help throughout the year making this the Centennials' most successful year to date. Leading scorers for the year are Blair Baker 17, Nicky Sabo 11, and Brain Blattman 6. Aldergrove Lasers lose ALDERGROVE • Ust Saturday the Lasers travelled to Guilford to play the Guildford Giants at Hjorth Park. The Lasers lost the game 3-0; and dropped into second place in their league. Seems a shame to only lose the first league game and drop their first place position. Guildford scored their first goal in the first half and luckily missed out on a penalty shot. In the second half the Aldergrove boys started to play stronger and had quite a few good shots o'n goal. Tim Eastick had a couple good shots on goal, but failed to capitalize. Guildford got two more goals this-half to win the game. The Lasers have one game left and should be proud to achieve second place. Great bunch of boys who should be praised for their team spirit and sportsmanship. MATSQUI - King' elementary schools students are skiing, horseback riding, cooking, and fishing in school time and their grades are going up reports principal Gerry Potter. These activities, all part of a five week series that involved one hour of school time each week, were organized by the teachers with some help and supervision by some of the parents with the idea that not all learning is academic. "At our school we stress academics," says Potter. "In addition we try to present programs which remind students that school is not all academics." In keeping with this, the cultural activities series was offered "to spice tip- the year's program. Kids look forward to.school," he adds, "when they have an interesting mixture of academic and non-academic programs. "We have a good staff and a very cooperative community it King," Potter further' states. "Parents assist in the school every day, and eight out of the twelve cultural programs are taught by parents." The activities offered in the cultural series included skiing, model making, cooking, gymnastics, horsemanship, chess and other games, girls' activities, boys' activities, and puppetry. The skiers were bused from the school to Hemlock valley each Thursday afternoon, the horsemanship group went to the Pen-A-Ba training centre, one cooking class met at a parent's home, and the other groups met at the school. After the series was finished last week, the students made written evaluations of their experiences. Six-year-old Coralee who was in the primary cooking group wrote, "I like making salad. I learned how to make pizza and pancakes and I like the chocolate cake. Next year I want to go to the girls' activities. I think cooking is fun." Eight-year-old Gene who was in the boys' activities group gave this evaluation: "I liked the police station because.we could see the guns and the police cars and the shooting range. "1 learned to be careful on the roads and not to play with guns and to tell the police if you find a gun or bullet. I want to stay in boys' activities." Dina, from grade two, said this about the gymnastics group: "I liked the springboard because it was fun. I like Miss ooievaar (the teacher). I learned how to do a bunny hop. I am going to stay in gymnastics. John, a grade three student who was in the horsemanship group wrote this, "I liked getting out of school because I hate work. I won a first and fourth in horsemanship. , I lerned (sic) something new. Kim was a good rider. Rhonda was too. I liked how she taught us to canter. Mrs. Guenther taught us how to keep hooves clean. 1 enjoyed doing it." And that is the aspect most of the student evaluations reflected -- enjoyment. As twelve-year-old Ruby concluded In her report, "The only improvement I can think of is to have the cultural activities more often."

NEILL FOSTER The peace treaty spectacular being staged in Washington will - for the first time in centuries - bring Egypt and Israel Into harmony. President Sadat, Prime Minister Begin .and t jimmy Carter have all figured in the drama, with President Carter playing the leading role. For that, he will surely win a Nobel Prize. But peace itself may be further away than ever before. The rest of the Arabs, those who have the oil, assail Sadat as a traitor. But without the Egyptian army they are npt much of a threat ot Israel. The Egyptians, rather cynically, say, "The Arabs are all willing to fight against Israel - to the last Egyptian man.". Retired policeman saves womans life The oil-rich Arabs will get more shrill. Israel and Egypt will make peace. They may even get along for a generation. The Bible prophecies hint at such an accommodation (Isaiah 19). But on the long haul, look for more trouble. The same book promises that one day all nations will be against Israel. That has to Include Sadat's Egypt. ■: ST,' Golden Age bowling March 21,1979 Ladies Emily Brown Chris Lockhart Liz Dreger Queenie Brandt Helen Hoock Nettie Martens Kitty Parley Helen Vaydo Anne White Doris Gibbon Emily Elmore May Benjamin June Barker 249 249 206' 213 202 176 199 242 201 181 181 231 148 625 678 549 548 540 498 495 493 469 458 440 423 401 Mens Bill Ferguson Case Wyngaarden Ivor Dahl Bill Burden Roy Huizenga Dave Martens Chris Madsen Sid Jude Lyle Cairns Harry Gibbon Fred Dreger Ted Hansen Emll Rlnke Ruth Englebretson 174 - 458 Albert Brandt 278 - 791 268 - 700 241 - 641 253 - 608 206 - 596 284 - 593 240- 566 191 - 560 194 - 553 203 - 552 207 - 552 200 - 544 177 - 500 182 - 470 GUADALAJARA, MEX. • A retired Canadian policeman drew on his first aid training and saved a woman's life in a dramatic Guadalajara rescue February 7. William Wain- wright, who with his wife Betty has been staying at the Guadalajara Trailer Park on Highway 57, was walking his dog along a canal near the Park when he saw a car fail to negotiate a turn and plunge into the water. Swept Away A group of Mexican laborers working nearby also saw the accident and rushed, with Wainwright, to the rescue. The man in the car was thrown clear, but his wife, 58-year-old Maria Guadalupe Gonzalez de Nunez, was pinned under the car, her body submerged in water. The rescuers were able to lift the car from her but she was immediately swept away by the strong current. Wainwright, realizing the direction the current would take, shouted to men on the opposite bank to try to'pull her out. They did so, but called back that she was already dead. First Aid In his 20 years as a policeman for the Canadian Pacific railroad, Wainwright had been required to take six weeks of first aid yearly and has competed and won first aid competitions. Believing he might be able to revive the woman, he plunged into the canal which neighbors term "a sewer," and swam across. Using mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, he managed to revive the woman before ambulances arrived. Wainwright says that he is "just glad" he was in the right place at the right time. Forty- seven years old, he and his wife are natives of Bradner. They came to Guadalajara in December and will return to Canada in April. Bill Wainwright has been a resident of the Aldergrove- Bradner area for 10 years- Five Nlcomekl grade S to 7 students participating In a day on the slopes ol Mt. Seymour. P.

Recently artifacts of ancient Egypt were displayed in an exhibition in Seattle, Washing ton. The media broadcast the news that the exhibition was coming, long before the first statuette was laid out, or the sold tarconhwui of Tutankah- Replica of the Gold Plata* Mormon was translated. Irom which the Book ot As it happens in the United Church By MICHAEL KERRY An important part of the service each Sunday at Aldergrove and Mount Lehman United Churches is the time of family prayer. Rev. Ford invites Ihe people lo pray silently and any who wish may say a prayer out loud. Some of the prayers which are spoken are very beautiful.' It's kind of odd in a way, for a group of people to sit and direct their thoughts and words to a God they cannot sec. Anyone who speaks to God in public is a fool if God doesn't exist. That's where faith comes in. It usually takes a measure of faith to delcarc allegiance to God, or even to mention his name. Fear not, however, for God does exist and he provides believers with faith. He says so in his book, the bible (Romans 12:3). It takes faith to pray and it is very important that we exercise our faith by praying often. As Christians grow in faith they learn to keep Jesus foremost in their minds throughout the day till they can genuinely pray without ceasing, as the bible tells us (1 Thcssalonians 5(17). If faith is used properly it can make prayers effective. If you ask the Lord to do something, and you ask him with faith you'd better watch out because he'll do it. He says so (John 15:16). Here are one or two points about prayer which you may find useful. God welcomes prayer. He is a loving Father who has been separated from us by our sin. Now wc arc reunited with him and he loves us to call him. God is thoroughly interested in the smallest details of our lives. He's even aware of the individual hairs on our heads (Luke 12:7). God knows our requests before wc present them (Matthew 6:8). He gave us our minds to think, our spirits to pray and our freedom to decide whether to pray or not. He chooses to get things done by means of people. The most powerful attribute of people is faith and he wants us to use it by praying to him. There arc many subjects for prayer beside requests for God's action. Wc should praise him, thank him and tell him that wc love him. In short wc should worship him. If you are not in the habit of doing this, you should try it. There's nothing on,, earth or in heaven that is more rewarding. Last Sunday the Jubilation Singers took part in the morning worship with a song called "Sing unto the mountains". Two new girls have joined the group, Dana Sim and Miki Wywka. Rev. Ford continued with his theme from the book of Romans. He has been leading us through Paul's letter to the Christians in Rome as a weekly study during Lent. Last Sunday's sermon was based on the tenth chapter. There arc some beautiful Christian truths in Romans 10. Here is a simple statement of how to obtain faith, and how to use it t gain eternal life. "God's message is near you, on your lips and in your heart, that is the message of faith that we preach. If you declare with your lips 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." That's verses 8 and 9. The onus is on us to make a decision for God. There is no neutral position. If we are not for him we are against him (Matthew 12:30). Once we do choose to seek the Lord, he will come to meet us. Jesus describes this beautifully in his parable of the prodigal son. The wayward boy eventually decided to return to his father, who saw him coming and ran out to welcome him (Luke 15:11-32). That welcome home is available to anyone. To receive it is "joy unspeakable and full of glory" (1 Peter 1:8). Having received salvation we arc expec- tcc to tell others about it. As a matter of fact it's rather difficult to avoid sharing good news. When you have joy unspeakable, it shows. Don't be ashamed if it arouses curiosity, because it's supposed to. Simply rejoice in the Lord and spread the good news. Here are two forthcoming events at Aldergrove United Church. Next Sunday evening at 7:30 a meeting will be held to discuss parenthood. There will be a panel of experts on community services, mental health,, probation and school counselling. On Wednesday April 4th at 7:30 p.m. there will be an auction of furniture in the church hall. There arc some good quality items and the furniture may be seen at the church hall on April 2nd and 3rd at 9:00 a.m. till noon and April 4th 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. mon was positioned. Anticipation grew until the actual fair arrived and thousands of people flocked to view the display of manmade objects over three thousand years old. The tomb of Tutankahmon is only one example of many such displays the world over. Recently a display of ancient Mayan art was held in Vancouver, British Columbia. Artifacts are curious, and admittedly interesting; but even more informative are ancient records. Until a soldier of Napoleon's army stumbled onto the Rosetta Stone, the world lay in darkness as to the meaning of the graceful Egyptian hieroglyphs. Prior to this, no one could translate these mysterious writings; and so, speculation flourished. The Rosetta stone was inscribed with the same account in three languages, one of which was Egyptian written in hieroglyphs. This stone was the key to the whole story of Egypt. Now, not only could the artifacts be viewed, but the thoughts and intents of the Egyptian people who created them could be known. The mystics were disappointed, the ignorant didn't know, but for the most part, the educated rejoiced at the thought of new (old) worlds of thought to be explored. Egypt could be studied from within; that, is, within the hearts of the people that built her; and perhaps the Aldergrove United Church to host speakers ALDERGROVE • Aldergrove United Church will be host to a panel of guest speakers on Sunday, April 1 at 7:30 p.m. The subject focused on will be children and children's problems, in keeping with the International Year of The Child. We hope to explore some of the problems children encounter such as divorce, alcoholism, and suicide. We wish to discover some of the resources available to help good parents become better parents; to see what is available to strengthen faltering marriages; to help people cope with depression and escapism. We desire to learn more about probation and school counciling services, and how they can help. Speakers will be from mental health, community services, probation and school counselling. Everybody is welcome and coffee will be served after the meeting. The United Church is located on Jackman Road, one block south of Fraser Highway.

EVENING PRAISE & SHARE 9095 Glover Road, Fort Langley reason for the demise of Egypt would then be known. Setting the pattern for all civilizations that followed; the kingdom of the Pharaohs grew to magnificence, and then died from within. There have been ,other great civilizations: Summeria, Assyria, Babylon, Greece, Rome, Palestine, and recently the heretofore unknown Ebla civilization of _Syria. America has had it's great cultures too'; The Olmecs, Aztecs, Incas, and Mayas, and many others. These, too, rose and fell, leaving ruins, relics, and even records. Unfortunately there has been no American "Rosetta Stone", and consequently the writings of ancient American remain a mystery. Even thoUgh there has been no Rosetta stone; there was, however, one record translated fropi the ancient American sources and published. In the year 1829 a man named Joseph Smith discovered a stone .box on the west side of a prominent hill near modern day New York city. Prying the stone lid open, he discovered a group of artifacts inside. Lying on two long stones were a metal breastplate, and a book of thin metal plates bound together by three metal rings. The book of plates was approximately six inches wide and eight inches long, and about six inches thick; each plate being about the thickness of common tin. Similar records have been discovered amid the ancient palaces of King Darius II of Persia. Joseph Smith was able to translate about one third of the record. It has been titled The Book of Mormon because the author was said to be a man by that name. Mormon supposedly lived in North America during the 4th century A.D. The book purports to be both a secular and religious history of the ancient native Americans. Authoritative scholars declare it to be the apocalypse of America, much like the Dead Sea scrolls of Palestine. Many attempts have been made to discredit the Book of Mormon because of it's obscure origin, yet, the book has stood the test of countless critics and remains to be disproven. The Book of Mormon has been translated into many languages and is one of the most widely read books in the world. Copies of this 500 page record of ancient America may be obtained by writing to: Suite MOB - 7031 Westminster Highway, Richmond, B.C., V6X 1A3, or by contacting the local Mormon missionary in the area, telephone 530-8796. )>mssl ALDERGROVE GOSPEL CHAPEL 26580 29th Avenue (West o* Aldprgro«p High School.1 Aldergrove ■ Mt.

Rick Mcllwaln photo By MUN HOPE OTTAWA - When groups, nations and individuals have abdicated God, there could be nothing left but threat of war, pollution, disparity between ex- remely rich and extremely poor nations, and destruction of family life, according to speakers at a recent meeting held in the West Block of the House of Commons. It was a meeting bringing together senators, members of parliament from various political parties, and responsible leaders from many parts of Canada. Diplomatic corps from fifty-fou four countries also attended; and heard a challenge to renounce all human resources, and to place the Lord Jesus Christ at the center of gravity in the private lives of all leaders and individuals of every nation. "What statesman has a solution to our problems?" asked the Hon. JeromeChoquette, Q.C, former Quebec minister of justice. "We have no other choice but our creator and his holy spirit," he continued, amidst much appreciated applause. "This planet is a brotherhood - a brotherhood of thieves," said another government leader, "that's why, as a lost guilty sinner, I had to put my trust in my creator, my Lord Jesus Christ. When I heard of the passion of Christ, arid commitment to the Lord Jesus Christ, I received a spiritual experience which changed my life," he said. "As a sinner, I had to drop my mask, to have rapport with my creator and my Lord," said another speaker. "Are we neglecting the most important person in the universe?" asked someone else. The Hon.

Diefenbaker read the scriptures taken from - Paul's letter to the Ephesians, chapter 6, verses 10 to 16. Hon. Renaude Lapointe, speaker of the senate, gave the invocation. Visiting speaker William Lester Armstrong of Colorado was later introduced by senate leader Hon. Ray Joseph Perrault at a luncheon; and repotted to the gathering of instances of spiritual awakening in various parts of the United States. The United States senator from Denver did not mince words when he urged a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Attending the luncheon were Abbotsford M. Alex Patterson; Fraser Valley West M.P. Bob Wenman; Benno Friesen, M.P. from Surrey and Dr. Bob Thompson of Fort Langley. It was a quiet demonstration that men and women in positions of responsibility were placing a high priority on spiritual values. As one observer said, "Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever, therefore, shall humble himself as this little child the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Meanwhile, banks and government offices will be closed on Friday, April 13, to give an added opportunity to contemplate on the death and resurrection of the greatest person who ever lived on this planet. "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." John IS; 13. "But God commendeth his love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5: 8. "For God went not his son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. "He that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Con of God." John 3: 17, 18. Copies of these scriptures were placed In the hands of various government leaders, including the Communist diplomats, by courtesy of the writer, who attended these sessions at the invitation of the speaker of the senate and the speaker of the house of commons.

Even though it has been only a little more than two years since he first took office, Friesen finds that the responsibilities have increases. "It's a fast growing community," he says, and with the growth of population there has been a corresponding growth in the demands made on council members' time. "During ,my first year in office, I retained my business, but the business suffered because I wouldn't miss council meetings," says Friesen, "so I sold my business." Friesen operated a gravel trucking business. "It's not just council meetings, it's all the meetings combined that is so time-consuming," Friesen explains, "and - there are certain social functions that we are to attend as well." Monday, as he outlines it, is an 'alderman's busiest day. Council meets in a committee every. Monday and regular council meetings are on the second and fourth, Monday of every month. In outlining a recent Monday - a non-council day -- Friesen says their round of activities began at nine in the morning with their meeting as a commute of council. They were scheduled to have a public works committee meeting at 10:30 but they had not finished their other business. At 11:00 they broke off committee of council discussions and went into public works session. The public works business was not finished when they broke for lunch, but at 1:30. they were scheduled to tour a .poultry farm so they left the rest of public works discussions for evening. After the poultry farm tour,' Friesen stopped home for supper, then was back at municipal halt at 7:30 for a public hearing. When that finished at 9:00, the public works committe reconvened. When they adjourned at 10:30. business still had to be held over for another meeting. On other days there may be other committees and other business or other boards to meet with. Each alderman is assigned to represent council on various other local boards. Friesen is representative to the M-A joint sewer board, the M-A museum ' society, the Matsqui Prairie dyking and drainage advisory committee, and Glen Valley dyking.' Besided these regular appointments, he is alternate repre sentative to the joint water commission; and the joint planning committee. He also shares responsibility for liaison with independent schools'and halfway house within the district. Besides these duties, there is always correspondence to keep upwith. "Every Friday I pick up my correspondence and sometimes there Is quite a stack and over the weekend I go through and prepare for our Monday meeting," he says. The correspondence contains minutes of all meetings involving council in any way, briefs, letters, and items from sll over addressed to council members. "There is scads' of paper work, and I always have a stack of papers lying around my office at home," he adds. "My boy was just here the other day and he said 'I thought you said you were going to clean up all those papers.' "And I told him that I had cleaned up the papers he was talking about and put them away, that this was a new stack of correspondence that I was sorting through." Friesen, a resident of the area since 1931 and a gravel truck operator for 25 years primarily involved in road construction, especially enjoys his work on the public works committee because he has been assigned special attention to roads and drainage, areas he has been involved with through the years in his former business. "I enjoy getting complaints," he says legitimate ones, that is - and he reflects a satisfaction at being able to help people out of difficulties. . "I'm not in favor of all these regulations," he adds, mentioning how he was able to help one fellow get a business license for a home occupancy business. The license had been held up because the owner was using a shed for storage which was contrary to the specifications of home occupancy: "We need regulations," Frie sen continues, "but we can over-regulate. We need to go by principles." Mentioning the process cf rezoning at present in process in the municipality In order to prevent intensive farming .operations within the proposed urban development area, he speaks helplessly of at least one farmer he knew who was being trapped in the process. It seems the man acquired property with intent of going into the hog business, At the time of purchase, the acreage was properly zoned, but he was caught when the moratorium was- put on issuing of building permits in the area, and if the propsosed zoning goes through, there will be no way he can go through with the operation. "We bend over backwards to correct mistakes," Friesen continues, and he speaks hopefully of the community plan that Is currently under preparation. "It will give us a better insight of how to plan for the future and will prevent us from expanding in areas we shouldn't expand in." Another project Friesen speaks hopefully about is the sewer treatment plant that is in the drawing stage. This. Is his third year on the sewer board, and he says that by. the end of the year' the design drawings should! be completed and out for tender, but that actual work will not be started on the site until next year. "Actually, you don't know what you become Involved • in until you become a politician," he says, stating that he is "the only black sheep -■ only politician - in the family. ' "But I'd do it over," he admits. "It gets in your blood. I like working with people." Friesen feels that his background in the municipality is a definite advantage in dealing with local problems at the council level. He and his wife and their daughter still live on their Mt. Lehman property near the old Mt. Lehman high school which he attended. The school later became the Mt. Lehman junior high that his two sons attended and still later became the Dunach elementary school that his daughter attended. When he can get away from his responsibilities, Friesen like to go fishing with his family. He used to enjoy a week or two hunting in the wilds of the Prince George area, but as he says, "that's not like it used to be." Looking forward to accomplishments he expects council to make, he spoke of the community plan, the new sewer treatment plant, the community centre, and the possibility of Matsqui arid Abbotsford municipalities amalgamating. "1 have my reservations about that," he says regarding amalgamation. "It could be a too-big municipality." He then speaks of the possible need of bringing the unorganized districts of Sumas Mountain and Yarrow into the municipality also, and he did see some implications for the possibility of an Aldergrove municipality being established if amalgamation did proceed. As it is, Matsqui and Abbotsford have joint school board, hospital board, fire department, sewer board and recreational commission. "What's left?" he asked. What's left? Possibly amalgamation. In the meantime, Friesen and his colleagues on Matsqui council' will be kept busy keeping up with their already fast-growing community.

'Rockin Whiz Kid' George Thorogood and the Destroyers set to roll By KURT LANGMANN There's something subversive happening in the nation's phonographs, a sound that had nearly been forgotten, lost in the midst of the greater glory of the schlock dominating mainstream pop music. The sound has been misplaced before, and retrieved in the past by John Lee Hooker and Elmore James (in the SO's) and Peter Green and John Hammond (in the 60's), among many others. The sound referred to is the "blues", in all its varied shades. Most of the original blues art- Lists, have taken other work | (blues just doesn't pay), and the ' young white blues revivalists of the 60's have either gone disco and other schlock (eg: Eric Clapton) or run off to join Peter ' Green at the Children of God commune. We are nearly into the eightieth decade and just in the nick of time, a new interpretor, George Thorogood, arrives to save us from the dreary monotony. Thorogood, an unpretentious 29-year-old guitarist extraordinaire from Delaware, had no intentions of starting the chain of events that will assuredly' make him a star in the near future. He and the Destroyers, Billy Blough, bass and Jeff Simon, drums had their first ip cut by a small folkie label, Rounder, so that they could cut down on auditions for prospective engagements at out-of-town clubs. Thorogood didn't really believe he had made a bestseller • but he was wrong, The album sold 40,000 in four months and that mostly by word of mouth because there was little radio airplay. Thorogood theorized that the unexpected sales were because, "It's a lot crazier than anything you usually hear on the radio." In his youth in Wilmington he taught himself guitar by picking up licks and riffs from his Chuck Berry, Elmore James recordings. A 1970 John Hammond concert inspired Thorogood to follow An evening with Dorsey The Tommy Dorsey orchestra, under the direction of Buddy Morrow, will present an evening of dancing and listening pleasure this Friday from 8:45 p.m. to 12:45 a.m. at the Commodore. Tickets arc $8. Advance, seating reservations made by calling 681-7838, and the doors open at 7:30 p.m. Hammond to California, performing as a busker along the way. Arriving in Oakland, he walked up to Hammond's home, introduced himself and a friendship was born. Hammond introduced Thorogood to personal managers and Thorogood was soon performing as a solo opening act for Brownie McGhee, Bonnie Raitt and others. He then added two old school friends and the Destroyers were born. Their second album, "Move It on over," has now been released by Attic records in Canada, and it contains even more of the exciting feeling and spirit that Shakespeare and Dickens, the fine old English culture ABBOTSFORD - William Shakespeare and Charles Dickens,' among the greatest ornaments of English literature, each created a caricature that has been found offensive down the years -• Shylock in "The Merchant of Venice" and Fagin In "Oliver Twist", and both writers have been forgiven because of their genius and out of recognition of their having lived in times of greater prejudice than our own. In the musical version of Dickens's tale that is called "Oliver!" and is coming to the coming to the Abbotsford senior secondary school auditorium on April 19, 20, 21, 26, 27, 28 the character of Fagin has been transformed by the man who wrote the book, music and lyrics of this tremendously popular hit, Lionel Bart •• whose name was NEW INSTRUMENTS SPRING SALE GIBSON Les Paul $150. off FENDER Stratocaster $179. oil PEAVY P.A.

(604) 530-3632 CFVR/850 Where the pros are originally Beglelter, and whose father was a Jewish tailor in the section of London called White- chapel. Bart changed Fagin from a repellent leech, living off the loot of urchins he teaches to be pickpockets, to a comic fairy-tale ogre, a cracked old miser whose habit of fondling his treasure, horde of jewels Is simply funny, and he was certainly found unobjectionable during the long runs of "Oliver!" in London,New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and other cities. Fagin, in fact, seemed so little Jewish in this musicalized version of Dickens's peek into London's underworld, that he drew no complaint from representatives of the Anti-Defamation League of the B'nai B'rith. This was in considerable contrast to the reception given a movie version of "Oliver Twist" some years earlier, when Alec Guincss portrayed the professor of the pickpocketing art. Such a storm of objections were raised by this film characterization that the movie itself had a very limited circulation in this country. Alan Clift is portraying Fagin here, more as a puckish professor of pickpocketry than as a black villain. Joe Brooks is playing the part of Oliver Twist, Wally Hubler the Artful Dodger, Freddy Latham the sultry, loving loser Nancy, and Ken Mead the scoundrelly Bill Sikes she can't stop loving, to her misfortune. ' You. are what you play Does the musician shape the instrument or the instrument the musician??? On the advice of psychiatrists and psychoanalysts, Time Magazine put forth the following musical stereotypes. Hie Aristocrat on French Horji (Graeme Page of the CANADIAN BRASS) the class of brass, refined and erudite*, is one of the highest paid members of the orchestra and acts like it. Unlike the other brass players, he has never known the camaraderie of playing in dance bands and tends to stand aloof. He is adept at organizing strikes and protest movements. The Sport on Trumpet , (Fred Mills and Ronald Romm of the CANADIAN BRASS) Aggressive, outgoing, he is the orchestra's resident swinger, a locker-room pundit, a connoisseur of poker, baseball and off-colour jokes. To meet the physical demands of his instrument' he lifts weights. (Note - parenthesis refers to two players, rest is singular.) The Tout on Trombone (Eugene Watts of the CANADIAN BRASS) He lifts martinis. A wheeler- dealer, he is forever organizing parties and picnics, likes to sit in on jam sessions at the local jazz club. The Braumelstcr on Tuba (Charles Daellenbach of the CANADIAN BRASS) He is young, puff, crew-cut, a graduate of the college marching band. In keeping with the Germanic tradition of his instrument horn, he is a dedicated beer drinker. It takes all these types to make a world. When the CANADIAN BRASS performs Thursday, March 29th, at the Vincent Massey Auditorium, Canada Way and Eighth Avenue, in New Westminster, you can hear how these divergent types blend together in close harmony for an unequalled music experience. Tickets at the door are $6.50 and $5.00 or 55.50 and $4.00 available at Concert Box Offices, Woodwards and Grennon Records. DAVE'S R0CK-N-R0LL REVIEW mc Mobile Disco Music for all ages. servicing Banquets, Parties, Weddings, etc. Ph. 534-1880 he has for blues and the slide guitar. In concert he is even more dynamic - he hammers and caresses his Gibson ES 125 through Chuck Berry, John Lee Hooker, Bo Diddley, Johnny Cash and Hank Williams material while dancing, jumping, crouching, kicking, somersaulting and doing backflips. Marg Daly, writing for the Toronto Star, concluded her review with comment that, "It's a visual and musical rock performance that has to rank with the most spectacular of the genre. When he finished (the opening number) Thorogood catches his breath and says matter-of-factly, "Now I'm getting warmed up. If you're asking come on, George, when are you gonna start rocking, well, stick around." "Amazingly, he Isn't kidding." The unexpected fame leaves him surprised. Thorogood says, "When I get home, I just do the things I always do - go bowling (he won't tour In the summer because he's In the hometown baseball team). I'm just thrilled to be making a living doing something I like." Thorogood and the Destroyers will grace the stage of the Commodore Ballroom on Saturday, AprU 14. The show Is part of the "April Alternative" presented by Perryscope and tickets are $7.50 advance at Woodward's. As Daly said, "There simply aren't the superlatives to do justice to this gifted artist's talent, musical integrity and consummate understanding of how to entertain."

Ladies spring tea ALDERGROVE - The ladles auxiliary to the Royal Canadian Legion branch no. 265 will be holding their spring tea and bake sale on Saturday, April 7 from 2 to 4 p.m. In the Legion hall on Fraser Highway. There will be tea, bake, white elephant and plant tables, and bingo will be called. Admission will be 75 cents. By CORRINE VANDERWERFF Matsqui will acquire another correctional centre if a tentative ■ proposal made to municipal 'council Monday, which would* see a centre moved from ChUliwack to a 2.8 acre lot In the green belt on Marshall Road, goes through. The correctional centre which would house inmates who would be granted leave for work or study while still under 24 hour supervision, would house up to fifteen individuals who would be preparing for release and return to their place in the community. One of five such centres in the lower mainland, the facility In Chilliwack which houses 18, needs replacing, and the provincial ministry of the attorney- general is looking toward having it relocated in the Matsqui area. Inmates, most of them from the Fraser Valley area, stay from 15 to 60 days In the centre just prior to their release instead of going directly from a correctional institution or forestry camp to their communities. According to the correctional officer making the presentation to council, most of the offenders are in on technical violations - about 40 percent of them alcohol related convictions such as driving while impaired - or on property related convictions which include mostly breaking and entry convictions, and all of them are serving sentences of less than two years. As lie explained it, the idea of the program essentially Is to get people working in their own community under supervision before discharge. While In the centre the residents contribute to the support of their families, pay off debts, pay their board and room, and make restitution to their victims if this has been ordered by the court. restitution ordered, but that when the sentence Is finished that can no longer be forced. An advantage of such a centre, as he pointed out, is that those who are serving short sentences such as for Impaired driving, could be held under supervision while stilt being able to maintain a job. Otherwise the job would be lost and the family would have to go on welfare. The centre would be funded by the provincial government. Plans are to present the project concept to the community members of the immediate area proposed for the facility and then come back to council with a brief regarding the project. NORTH OTTER - Thousands of footprints are making pathways from the classrooms to the library at North Otter' elementary school. They dramatically show the success of a reading promotion program, "Bigfoot • A Step In The Read Direction", which began in October and will continue until the end of May. In exchange for a parent's or teacher's note verifying the student has read a book, the, student receives a footprint which joins his/her class' pathway to the library. Once the required number of footprints have been earned {10 to 25, depending .on the grade level), the student receives a Bigfoot award. Two such awards makes the student eligible for a special Bigfoot button. Students in grades one through seven are involved In the program, More, than twenty students have already earned their two Bigfoot awards and many many more have only a few books to go. The North Otter PTG has made a very generous financial donation towards the purchase of Bigfoot buttons. During National Book Festival Week (April 2 to 8) scrolls listing the names of students who haye achieved two or more Bigfoot awards will be unveiled in the entrance hall, where they, will await the addition of many more names during the rem aining two months of the program. Since the start of the program, library loans have greatly Increased, keeping the librarian, L. Poole, and a volunteer parent, S, Stockdill, busy processing the many notes .which come in each day. Teachers and parents are very pleased with the enthusiasm for reading which abounds at North Otter. Barkved says no to fusion power plant LANGLEY - Addressing the annual general meeting of the Fraser Valley. West federal riding of the NDP on March 24, candidate Cyril Barkved issued a stinging condemnation of the federal government's proposed fusion power plant. Barkved also attacked the Social Credit gov eminent of B.C. for attempting to have the plant located in the lower mainland. "The Socreds talk out of both sides of their mouths," he told the audience. "Recently they ran an ad in the Financial Post in which B.C.'s economic development minister boasted that B.C. has unlimited energy reserves in the form of undeveloped hydroelectric sites, natural gas and coal reserves. Why, then, do we need a fosion-pbwered generation plant in B.C.?" he In response to questions by asked, council, the officer. explained '. Barkved went on to note that that while the residents are such a plant will be very under their supervision they expensive, running into the bit- could be forced to start paying , lions of dollars. "You, the taxpayer, will be asked to foot the bill for this'thing," he added. Barkved said that he could not understand how the Social Credit government could claim to be reducing the burden on taxpayers at the very time that it was trying to buy an enormously expensive "pink elephant". Finally, Barkved noted that the proposed fusion plant is still at the experimental stage. "To build such a plant In B.C. will make us into human guinea pigs. Who knows what potential dangers could be linked to this thing?" he warned. Barkved concluded that given the tremendous potential of conventional energy sources in B.C., the high costs to the public of developing the fusion process, and the unknown risks which are tied to nuclear fusion, the only sensible position is to call a halt to the project before it gets off the ground. Students Sharon Thompson, Kit Jantzen, Karen Morgan, Susy Stockhlll and Te- Jinder Dhlllon, each repre senting their class display the Bigfoot symbol which has popularized their reading program.

Rick Mcllwaln Photo Pen-A-Bor Training Centre go with the kids By JUUE VALENTI Short of tearing our walls, a mirror is the best device of all for recreating space and changing the appearance of size without the expense of remodeling. Mirrors add perspective, depth and height as well as tighten and brighten. The uses of mirrors are wondrous and practically unlimited: • Put a mirror on a dark wall to catch the sunlight, on the deadend wall of a hall to expand it or in a dull corner to liven it. • A mirror on the long wall of a narow room will make it look wider and on the short wall will make it look deeper. • A large rectangular mirror hanging lengthwise on a narrow wall will stretch the wall and push the ceiling up. • A half circle table against a mirror will look like a round table; a square or rectangular table will look twice as large. • Put a mirror on the ceiling, on the dining table, behind bookshelves, beneath kitchen cabinets for added dimension in an unexpected place. • Mirror a closet or room door, a set of sliding doors to make a mirror wall. • Mirror tiles on a screen, partition or on obtrusive and non-functional beams will disguise them and make them visually dissolve. • Put mirrors near windows to bounce light into a room, either on an adjacent wall, on a nearby screen or on window shutters. (When shutters are mirrored, the window looks like a larger bay window.)' All of these uses are great space stretchers but they can be used incorrectly if some caution is not taken: • Consider what a mirror will reflect ■ something pretty like the view of the trees outside the window, or something unattractive like the mess in the kitchen, •a mirror will increase the amount of furniture: although this is desirable in a sparsely furnished room, it will make an already crowded room look even more cluttered. • A large mirror is breakable and expensive to buy and install, but when considered against the cost of an addition, it becomes a viable way of adding space. • Place a wall-to-wall mirror so that the extension of space seems logical, so that there is a rational beginning and end, so that if the wall were not there, Elementary Science Fair at Langley mall By CORRINE VANDERWERFF MATSQUI - Pcn-A-Ba Training Centre at 149 Defehr Road is where they see to all your horse needs whether it be individual or group classes or horse boarding or stud services. "We emphasize riding and showing your own horse," says owner Penny Balh, "and we school the horse as well as the rider. "We've really got to go with the kids," she says. "That's what it's all about -- giving the kids a chance." And at Pen-A- Ba the emphasis is on riding for enjoyment -- and looking after kids whose interests arc mainly in hobby riding. "We're in the process of putting up an inside arena," says Bath, "so wc can offer, year-round classes." But classes are already underway in their outdoor ring. Last week saw the completion of the five week horsemanship class at Pcn-A-Ba which was part of the cultural activities offered at King elementary school. Boarding at Pen-A-Ba gives the horse grain twice daily, its own paddock, plus having a vet and farrier on call at all times. Private lessons will be included for SIO.(X) an hour and group lessons at $5.00 an hour. This year Bath has Ibn Khjjm- is, the last son of El Khamis, standing at stud. "He has a terrific disposition' and he is great with the kids," says Bath. "He's one to watch. When wc showed him last year he was always in the ribbons." This summer Bath and her assistant, Linda Bell, besides offering classes and boarding facilities, will be showing four horses between them. But the important thing to them is that they arc offering a chance for area youngsters to fully understand their horse and its care, and to learn both pleasure riding and showmanship techniques.

Or maybe they bumped into Lisa Anglin of Topham elementary who explained what she found out about the causes of rust. Paul and Lisa were two of over 120 students from 17 elementary schools in school district 35 who partici pated in the district science fair for 1979. The purpose of a science fair is to build student enthusiasm and interest for science investigations. Each of the four project categories was designed to be a student investigation of some kind. Collections included leaves, rocks, minerals, crystals, finger prints, eggs and hair. Model builders were busy demonstrating barometers, electric motors, crystal radios, the brain, the eye and enough volcanos to make the situation potentially dangerous I You could even find out how your digital calculator or watch works. Meanwhile "student researchers" explained their discoveries concerning the breeding of insects and the effect of vinegar on iron nails. All of the entrants in this science fair were winners in their own school fairs so judging was most difficult. In all, 35 students won prizes ranging from calculators to admission you could keep walking through the house (thus, avoid the window walls), • A floor-to-ceiling mirror is most effective if It starts at the floor and ends at the ceiling rather than above and below baseboards and moldings. • Mirror tiles that are colored, patterned or hung In some kind of pattern are more decorative than solid sheets of clear mirror but they are not as effective as space stretchers. • Instead of mirror, consider silvered acrylic sheeting, aluminum, or mylar wallpaper, all effective in lightening and expanding. • Some mirrors already framed can be quite costly. A. less expensive way of obtaining a framed mirror is to buy an old frame of the desirable size at a second-hand store and get a mirror cut to fit it. The frame can be refinished or painted, covered in fabric or decorated with objects such as shells, pine cones and nuts, ribbon or buttons.

They entered and exited on cue and illicited applause and laughter throughout the performance from both 250 person audiences last Wednesday and Thursday nights. The 150 students in grades kindergarten through three did a crackerjack job in the first-ever operettic . production "Cowboy on the Moon" at North Otter school. The two-act play relates the confusion that results when the man in the moon suddenly appears in town on the daj of the annual rodeo. Happy Hop- agog pulled a lot of pranks with help from his band of moonsters on the way to discovering what life, and what a rodeo is like, in Bow and Arrow town. Happy was duly impressed with the western folk he met and left earth proclaiming to be a "cowboy on the moon by And by." ' Many of the children with speaking roles expressed real flair and talent,for the performing arts. They showed their enjoyment of and desire to entertain through self-confident acting and strong, clear diction. Some unexpected and just as commendable performances were offered by other cast- members - the Indian dancer seen nonchalantly lolling on the floor, watching the action on the raised stage above him as though he was part of the audience rather than part of the play; the pushing match that ensued between two moonsters when one wanted to hide behind the other rather than face the audience. These uninhibited actions added a sense of spontaneity and humor and child-like realism to the production. Aside from some sound system difficulties, both productions ran smoothly and the two months worth of work by students, teachers and parents was obvious. A collective sigh of relief could be implied from the conversation of teachers and parents in the library after Thursday night's performance when they gathered for cake and coffee. But also to be implied was a strong sense of accomplishment and satisfaction from the production of the operetta and a definite enthusiasm to present another one next year. info Health Dr. Bob Young THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 1979 OAP amateur hour draws 3B enthusiastic crowd In a rare moment of clarity of medical expression the doctors have an understandable name for a "Red eye". They call it a red eye I To compensate for this uncharacteristic slip the red eye is immediately classified into a half-dozen types, all of which are dignified by more exact medical names. A red eye is an important medical sign, and all medical students are taught to treat it with respect. A redness in an eye that has not been physically injured can be an indication of a true emergency. Of course an injured eye may also at times be an emergency situation. Eyes that have been injured by a blow, a speck of dirt, or by a chemical are also likely to be red, but I will not consider these problems at this time. Fortunately most patients who appear in the doctor's office with a red eye are not in immediate danger. The vast majority will have an Infection or an allergic reaction affecting the surface of the eye. This is a conjunctivitis, usually caused by a bacteria or virus if not due to allergy. It is commonly seen in patients who have a cold or other respriatory infection. When the glands of the eyelids, or the hair follicles of the eyelashes become infected, a stye may result. This is really a small boil which may cause some redness of the eye. Vision-threatening conditions that discolor the eye are acute glaucoma, acute iritis and keratitis. In glaucoma the pressure of the fluid within the eye increases rapidly, and the eye can be destroyed if treatment is not prompt. Iritis is infectjon of the iris and other structures within the eye while keratitis is infection of the cornea, the transparent front of the eye. If a red eye is accompanied by pain, blurring of vision, sensitivity to light or halos around lights, it should be examined promptly. Early diagnosis and treatment by your doctor, or by an eye specialist if one is available, is mandatory if the vision is to be saved.

By ERNEST CLUETT ALDERGROVE - The OAPO amateur hour held last Sunday drew a large and enthusiastic crowd. The twenty entries were of youngsters with plenty of talents and poise and provided a wonderful afternoon of enter tainment for the pensioners. The efforts of Mary Sanderson and her committee in organizing the show were outstanding and emcee Andy Keay kept things moving right along. The entertainment was brought to a close by selections by Mabel Smith on the piano and Sheila Sinclaire on the organ. Pupils of Mabel Smith and Rudi Roberts helped toward making the event a success. Those pensioners who couldn't be bothered to attend, missed a great two hours of entertainment. The weekly dance attracted the larges crowd of the season and everyone enjoyed dancing to the music of the Aldergrove Rangers under emcee Slim Burrell. - i The door prize went to Lyle Kerens and the spot to Mr. and Mrs, McCullem. Visitors were Mr. and Mrs. able of Clearbrook, Mr. and Mrs. Sundow of Victoria, Flo Wilson from Hatzlc, Florence and Richard White of Questnel, Julie Bird and Bill Dennis from Vancouver and Doris Gray from Seattle. Birthdays were celebrated by Dave Payee, Jack Baker and Emilie Franklin. The success of the weekly dances is very gratifying, especially in view of the fierce competition from other dances in the vicinity. The next monthly meeting of the members will be held on April 6 at 1:30 p.m. New members are welcome. Andy Keay and H. Lundeberg will be delegates to the regional meeting to be held in the Brookswood hall on April 11. A condensed report of the resolutions committee will be given at the monthly meeting by your delegate.

Beetroot Is a cool-weather crop, even more so than carrots and seed should be sown just as soon as the ground is workable. Beets do very well on a sandy loam where the soil is light enough to give good root penetration. If the soil is heavy with clay, the beets will probably be poorly formed. Rub the seed before sowing and work some bone meal into the soil. If you have some sieved wood ashes, work these in as well because beets like plenty of potash. lt is not advisable to incorporate manure unless it is really well rotted but beets need organic material under the roots in order to hold moisture throughout the growing season. Depending on the variety, you can expect to pick young beets about two months after seeding. Don't let them.grow too large. It is the young beets about the size of a golf ball that have the best flavor. Seedlings should be thinned to about three inches apart when they are Some, six inches tall. Save these thinnings, they make delicious greens. Always go over the seed bed more than once as it is sometimes very difficult to single these vegetables. It is very likely that two seedlings will be left in one spot and this will result in poor roots. Beets do not need much fertilizing but to get the finest possible results, try mulching with seaweed or incorporating seaweed with the soil in the fall for the following year's beets. \ Beets are not hardy so they must be lifted and stored before frosts. Do not cut them as they will bleed. Tops should be twisted and the roots stored at once between layers of peat or sand in boxes kept in a frostproof place. Make successive sowings at one month intervals for regular pickings but always remember they grow best in the cool season. For fall crops the seeds should be sown in late August and the plants should be given some shade from the hot sun; This is one crop that must' be mulched to keep the soil temperature and moisture more even.. In addition, a light sprinkling of lime should be applied on either side of the row at seeding time. Those Who are planting beet for the first time will be pleased to learn that this crop is seldom attacked by pests. However, if the roots are allowed to remain in the ground after maturity, they will soon become tough and woody so harvest them when they are young and tender. Very hot weather will make the plants inclined to bolt. If this happens, throw the affected plants away. Beets will grow remarkably well in containers that can easily be moved around. They also do well when they get partial shade from tall growing crops such as corn or pole beans. This is rose pruning'time. Do. make sure your knife or secateurs are really sharp because jagged edges are a sure way to invite disease. Cut out all dead, worn-out shoots and useless twiggy growth. Each cut must slope at a fairly acute angle just above a bud or eye pointing outwards or in the direction in which you want growth to develop. Avoid congestion in the centre of the bush. Bush roses should be hard pruned. If pruning is done lightly year after year, the tendency will be for the flowering shoots to be produced higher up each season while the base of the bush becomes bare. If you come across stems that have a hollow hole where the pith should be, cut back the stem until the hollownes disappears. Always make all cuts on a slope. Garden shops and nurseries are now filled with beautiful specimens of polyanthus. I have never seen such gorgeous colors before and hundreds of gardeners will be buying them. Be careful where and how you plant them. They will wilt if placed in full sun. Try to plant them whre they will get early morning sun and shade or partial shade for the rest of the day. They love a soil that contains a cool, easy root run, so give them some good organic material under neath and make sure they never dry out. These plants are perennials and should be divided about every second year. After the first flowering, cut back each leaf in half, give a mulch of peat moss and you will almost certainly get a second crop of flowers later in the fall.

The park covers over 400 acres, along a mile of Fraser River waterfront and includes 'Edgewater Bar', one of the best fishing bars on the Fraser. The bar has been operated by a commercial lessee for several years but GVRD is now assuming direct operation. Day visitors will be given priority at Edgewater fishing bar, though overnight informal camping will be permitted on a limited basis. A majority of the visitors to the park last year came in campers. Groups will be able to reserve the picnic area at the park for day use activities, such as bar-fishing. First phase development, which will cost an estimated $150,000, includes improved road access and parking, picnic facilities, landscaping, potable water supply and general site improvements.

First located on two parcels of land donated by early settlers of the area, it was later moved to the present school site, where it continued to serve both as a school, and a social focal point for the local residents.

Oer the decades, structural expansions to accommodate an increased student population were made, but in February 1975 the complex was extensively damaged by fire.
