Guran Jets lose Aldergrove Guran Jets played North Delta here on Tuesday night and lost. The game was marred by a steady stream of players heading for the box, in a game where both teams were guilty of chippy hockey.

Gibbons added Dawson Brill's second at 9:39 of the second for a 3-2 score, but the Lack-lustre display by Ernies Ernie's Trucking lost their first league game of the season to Surrey Bantam Rep by a resounding 6-1 score, and on this showing Surrey thoroughly deserved their victory. From goal out this was only a shadow of the team that has been winning consistantly since October, hopefully they can regroup for Tuesday night's encounter against Ridge Meadows. Howard who had not played since Dec. 16 got the assignment in goal and did not look sharp, consequently giving up five goals before he left it mid-way through the second period. However he had little or no help from his defense or forwards who with one or two exceptions stood around and watched Surrey make pretty plays. Minot and Waterfield being the exceptions Le Blanc who replaced Howard in goal made several good saves and only gave up one goal. However Surrey had slacked off somewhat by then and allowed Ernie's to get one back. Di Gianni scoring on a deflection from Minot and Jones at 8:01 of the third. A thoroughly dissap- pointing display which Ernie's will want to forget. Elks added their fourth in the last minute of play in the period from K. Gordon, assisted by B. Burgess. Final score was 4-2. Firefighters beat Bill's Auto Body The Firefighters played Bill's Auto Body on Sunday in a good game with Firefighters winning it. Firefighters took the lead late in the first on an unassisted goal by D. Hyde, and it stood up through two remaining periods. The third period showed to be a goal scoring one with the Firefighters adding three more goals, and Bill's Auto Body with two. Scoring for Firefighters were R. Rcidiger with two and D. Hyde getting the other, with D. Hyde picking up two assists. Scoring for Bill's Auto Body were T. Lang- Hodge and G. Miller with Lang- Hodge and Van Lcest getting assists. Final score was 4-2 for the Firefighters. Guran Jets An unfortunate loss was suffered by "Grove Juvenile Reps as they went down to North Surrey 4-2 last Sunday. The Reps played their usual "rough 'n ready" style of hockey which resulted in each team serving twenty minutes in penalties. At the end of the first period North Surrey were on top with one goal, but Aldergrove lost no time in coming back with the first goal of the second period scored by Jim Braun. assisted by R. Thompson and B. Fritzke. Two more goals from North Surrey had brought the score up to 3-1. when number sixteen Dave Fraser from. Vadnais and Davis, ended the period by sliding the puck past the oppositions goalie for the Rep's final goal of the game. The third period proved lively to say the least, as was evident by the number of penalties ceded by both teams. But Grove just couldn't keep North Surrey from scoring the only goal of the period with seven minutes left in the game. 4-2 is not a bad score, but it is not a win.

ALDERGROVE Two blocks west o,f Alder Inn Hotel PLANNING MINUTES RELEASED Crown corporation competes with Gloucester By GARY CHAMBERS ALDERGROVE — After a con- limitation which almost reached into the law courts, members of the Central Fraser Valley regional district board (CFVRD) voted Monday to release some, but not all. of their in camera committee minutes to the Star. The paper had requested the release of minutes from all standing committees of the board as part of an investigation into a rezoning application by Gloucester Properties Ltd. Gloucester has applied for exemption from the provincial land freeze to develop an 800-acre industrial park in Aldergrove's northern community of County Line. The development, which according to Gloucester spokesperson Ainslie Loretto. could mean 4,000 new permanent jobs in the Aldergrove area, has been bogged down at the regional government level for about nine months. In addition to the delay in approval or denial of the application. Gloucester's project has also been marred by a break-in and ransacking of the developer's offices, and charges of parochialism between politicians in Lang- Icy .district and other municipalities to the east. Local politicians in Langley have asserted that eastern municipalities belonging to the CFVRD have been blocking the Langley development because it competes with potential industrial developments in their own bailiwicks. Meanwhile, the identity and motive(s) of a culprit who broke into and ransacked Lorctto's Aldergrove offices on November 17. 1977, remain an unsolved mystery. As part of its investigation into these and other aspects of Gloucester's rezoning application. The Star had requested the release of in-camera minutes recorded during closed meetings of the CFVRD's standing committees. The paper was refused access to these minutes last week, and began consideration of a court order to obtain the documents. A special in-camera meeting of the board was held Monday afternoon, however, and a motion was passed allowing reporters to view Ihe minutes of the board's planning committee. The minutes of all other standing committees of Ihe board remain undisclosed. In planning minutes nuw in the possession of the paper's editorial staff, there are numerous references to the Gloucester application. Some of the documents illustrate a definite difference of opinion between board members from Langley district and those from other areas, while others reveal that competing developers have been called upon in closed meetings to offer official advice on the Gloucester development. BCDC ASKED FOR INPUT During a planning committee meeting held June 29, 1977, committee members heard a report from regional planner Janice Richmond dealing with the ownership of properties located within the proposed industrial park. As part of the discussion of the application that day, director George Ferguson (mayor of Abbotsford) called for a meeting with Stan Jobb of the B.C. Development Corporation (BCDC). "Director Ferguson stated that a meeting with Mr. Stan Jobb of the BCDC should be scheduled to further discuss the proposed industrial Master Plan," state the minutes. Gloucester's application was tabled, with director Jock Lindsay of Langley district recording a contrary vote, and another motion was passed scheduling a meeting with Jubb. BCDC is a crown corporation established to develop and lease or sell industrial land. One of the projects BCDC was and still is promoting, is a large industrial park located on Tilbury Island in the district of Delta. This development is in direct competition with the Gloucester proposal. It is also shrouded in controversy because of the agricultural soil classifications determined on the site. Jobb. a paid official of the crown corporation, met with the CFVRD's planning committee on July 20.1977, to offer his input on industrial planning for the entire Fraser Valley. The Aldergrove Star Vol.21 No. 3 Blegitimus non carborundum Wednesday, January 18, 1978 15c per copy ma mm to get to know you 1984, here we come By RUDY LANGMANN MURRAYVILLE — George Orwell was absolutely right. Only his timing was slightly off. It is now 1978. and 1984 is already with us. Mind you, our politicians are trying to fight it. Or should wc say at least some of them are. Will they win? Probably not. What is it all about this time? According to some councilmen here just anotner intrusion by bureaucracy into the private lives of the citizens of the country. A case which they think will make the human rights people grit their teeth and bare their claws. It's about a new questionnaire devised by municipal civil servants and mailed to business people in the district along with the request for the annual business license fees. Without council's consent. Treasurer Larry Cruikshank and license inspector Sylvia Jim- mo were put on the carpet this week, the only defender of their unilateral action being protection committee chairman Aid. Jock Lindsay. The questionnaires proved quite the controversial issue with council, especially after they started receiving nasty phone calls from constituents. You set. u u..eu to be that the municipality 'was satisfied with collecting the license fees. Now, however, they also want to know your age, your height and the color of your eyes in addition to a declaration as to whether or not you have ever been convicted of a criminal offense. Plus other tidbits and trivia of a similar nature. To Lindsay it is all only a question of "setting up an informational thing." Not so, however, to staunch individualists George Driediger, Elford Nundal, Stan Fraser and Jim Lee. "Don't ever send another form like that out to me," Mayor Driediger sternly advised Jimmo. "1 am not filling out this form," said Aid. Fraser with determined gusto. "Who is running this council?" inquired Aid. Nundal. "The bureaucrats or us?" .. ;"It is an insult to every businessman," said Aid. Lee. Well, it came out that, according to Jimmo, the local RCMP were the nasties who had requested the questionable questionnaire. And Jimmo and Cruick- shank saw nothing wrong with that. "A standard function," said Cruickshank. "The bureaucrats drive you out of your bloody cotton-picking mind," said Nundal. "Damn shocking," came Driediger's terse comment. "Since when did you start attaching that crap?" he demanded from Jimmo. "I have the feeling that one of these days you arc going to get us into a 'nice' lawsuit by asking these kind of questions." ' And then, jokingly, "Next year, I suggest wc add another question, like 'how is your sex life?' " "Wait till the human rights people get hold of this," said Lee. The ironic part about the whole thing, according to Nundal, is that it is completely unnecessary and redundant. Everyone knows, he said, that "the RCMP already Population statistics convince McGeer ALDERGROVE - Plans for an eleven room elementary school in South Aldergrove will be speeded through bureacratic channels in Victoria as a result of a meeting Tuesday between the Langley school board and education minister Pat McGeer. Board chairman Brian West- wood told reporters Wednesday that statistics published in the Star last week showing Langley to be the fastest growing school district in the province convinced McGeer of the need for new schools. "We had a good hearing, said Westwood. "He's interested in our problems and he's going to give us some help." The meeting in Victoria Tuesday was the result of four attempts by the local board since September to gain an audience with McGeer. Among other topics discussed at the two hour session were the upgrading of Langley secondary school near Langley city and capital costs. Architect's drawings for the new school are expected to be completed by January 30, one week later than previously forecast. The board originally planned to use existing drawings used in the construction of four other elementary schools in the district, but their hopes were scuttled when provincial criteria changed. Meanwhile in a meeting with health minister and Langley MLA Bob McClelland, Aldergrove elementary PTG president Geoff Service attacked the education Trustees order department head evaluation to start By GREG THOMAS ALDERGROVE — Langley school board superintendent Dr. Len Sampson has been given 60 days to evaluate every secondary school department head in the district and report his finding to the school board. The evaluation was ordered Monday after results from first year University of British Columbia English examinations showed a 40 percent failure rate. Staff committee chairman Marnie Robertson told Sampson to begin the evaluation with English department chairmen in the district's seven secondary schools. Department heads are experienced teachers appointed for a one year period to co-ordinate teaching staff and curriculum. Robertson said Sampson will evaluate the teachers' management skills and experience, rather than their teaching skills, evaluated now by secondary school principals once every three years. The trustees cited the poor showing at UBC, as well as declining performances in aptitude tests throughout North America as the reason for the new evaluations. Trustee David Bell told a small audience at the board's meeting at Wix-Brown elementary school that administration would attempt to 'redirect' any department heads found unqualified by have a dosicr on each and every one of us." If they want to know if someone has at one point or another been convicted of a felony, it is just a matter of feeding his or her name into a computer and out comes information that the subject perhaps only was vaguely aware of himself. Win this, too? asked Nundal, answering himself by putting the Hf>'-» square'; "" Il , "'"-y bureaucrats. As for Driediger's joke, of course that is all it is. Or is it? ... Don't forget that politicians' jokes of yesteryear arc more often than not the accepted procedures of today. After dismissing the two senior employees council referred the matter back to its administration committee for further study. ministry for not stocking acceptable plans for local use. "What I can't understand is why good plans aren't available in Victoria," said Service at the meeting, organized to discuss growth problems in the Aldergrove area. Service pointed out the amount of time spent approving plans for the new elementary school could have been used to complete the facility, and suggested filing the province's best plans in Victoria. McClelland compared the situation to the recent controversy over plans for the new extended care facility at Langley Memorial hospital, where available draw- 'McClelland' page 2 Sampson, "If you can't redirect them, you fire them," Bell added. Board chairman Brian West- wood said the Public Schools Act allows the district to remove teachers "if they can't be salvaged." In an interview with the Star, Sampson said the question of dismissing teachers was hypothetical. "I don't expect for one minute that I'll find any incompetent department heads." Sampson said the 60 day time limit will prevent him from interviewing all department 'Constant' page 2 Lower Mainland vegetable growers staged a tractorcadc In front of Dcpt. of Agriculture offices In Cloverdalc yesterday. Backed by the B. C. Federation of Agriculture, the growers promise further protests, Including a possible border blockade of US Imports, unless government Includes vegetable commodities on an Income insurance plan. Here, BCFA president Pat Hibbcrt |on traclorl Is seen with Fraser Valley Pea Growers' Association secretary Jim Harris of Delta, Liz Scbestycn photo Hundreds join grower tractorcode Howard Wong CLOVERDALE - What happened here yesterday will probably go down in Canadian history. Not since 1971, when angry PEI farmers blocked access routes to the Island, have Canadian farmers used tractors for a political demonstration. But it happened again in Cloverdale yesterday morning, when over a hundred vegetable growers from Delta to Chilliwack converged on the department of agriculture offices. Some were on foot, some drove pick-ups and produce delivery trucks, but most came by tractor. Draped with placards reading "Hewitt blew it", "We demand fair treatment" and "No Income Assurance, no lettuce", the tractors were there to protest the provincial government's refusal to include vegetable growers on the income assurance program. Faced with high production costs and low returns on their produce, as well as stiff competition from cheap U.S. imports, the vegetable growers say that unless the provincial government offers them some compensation for their losses, they'll all go out of business. In a joint statement from Jim Harris, secretary of the Fraser Valley Pea Growers' Association, and Pat Hibbcrt, B.C. Federation of Agriculture president, Harris yesterday morning told the growers: "The people of B.C. must come to realize that farmers will not and cannot be expected to receive less than their cost of production for the food they sell. If that happens, beginning with vegetables growers, most of the province's farmers will inevitably go out of business and the result - the need to import all of our food requirements -will end up costing the government and the consumer far more than any income stabilization program." The Farm Income Assurance Act. established five years ago by the NDP government, operates on insurance principles and guarantees farmers compensation for up to 75 percent of their losses when market returns drop below production costs. The vegetable growers say that agriculture minister Jim Hewitt promised to include them on the income assurance scheme two years ago, but has not lived up to that promise. Hewitt has recently decided to scrap the program in favor of a more economical scheme, the details of which will be unveiled at the B.C. Fruit Growers' convention in Pcnticton next Tuesday. The vegetable growers are now concerned that the new program will simply be a watcrcd-down version of the current scheme, and that vegetable commodities will again be ommitlcd from income assurance. "All wc want is the opportunity for a square deal." said Hibbcrt in Cloverdale yesterday. "Income assurance will provide only a portion of our loss in the marketplace, but we simply won't be able to compete without it." "This demonstration is a success in that it proves we can speak in a united voice," he continued, "and we now can only hope for some positive reactions from the government." Hibbcrt said the federation will gauge reaction to the Cloverdale demonstration before considering further action, which may include a border blockade against US imports, similar to the US blockade on Canadian beef. Wong wages war By ELIZABETH SEBESTYEN Almost everyone on the Matsqui Prairie knows Howard Wong. He's a likeable fellow, easy-going and unassuming, always ready with a smile and a friendly word. People like Howard and that's probably why there's always a steady flow of customers at his Riverside Road vegetable market. Howard hardly seems the type of person who would have anything to do with rebellious behavior of any kind, least of all take part in a protest demonstration. But yesterday morning, Howard was in front of the agriculture office in Cloverdalc along with dozens of other angry lower mainland vegetable growers. They were there to protest agriculture minister Hewitt's failure to extend an income assurance plan to cover vegetable commodities. Howard enjoys farming. In fact, there's nothing he'd rather do. But after thirteen years as a vegetable grower in the lower mainland, Howard has reached the point where he feels he had or risk going better speak up under. "Wc like our job," he says, "but wc have to be able to make a living at it. The cost of machinery, chemicals, labor and everything else is going up at least fifteen to twenty percent a year, but we're getting almost the same price for 'Not' page 2 The minutes of that meeting quote Jobb as being critical of B.C.'s development laws and its attitudes toward industrial development. "Industrial land costs are too high as a result of poor planning, political pressures and provincial regulations. As a result industry is locating in other provinces or in the United States." the minutes quote Jobb as saying. On the other hand. Jobb is also critical of the Gloucester proposal. "There is sufficient industrial land in the Lower Fraser Valley presently. Life style is an important consideration. "Regarding Chichester Properties (sic), Mr. Jobb stated that it was premature at this time. There is sufficient industrial land. A master plan for industrial development covering Vancouver to Hope should be prepared," the minutes read. The rest of the minutes from that meeting show Jobb as a man who feels that industry is being chased away from B.C. The documents quote him as being concerned about high unemployment figures; soaring land costs; inadequate planning procedures; poor economic conditions and lack of government direction. Developer Loretto quoted Jobb Monday night as telling her that the official industrial plan covering Vancouver to Hope would take about three months to complete. Others at the regional level, especially those from Langley district, estimate that the plan would take at least two years to conclude. Gloucester, in the interim, has made it clear that the multi- million dollar Aldergrove development will not proceed if investment funds are tied up for two years. MASTER PLAN The Star contacted Jobb at his Vancouver office Tuesday. Jobb stands by his previous claim that the Gloucester proposal is premature. He says that the entire valley from Vancouver to Hope must be planned out before any industrial developments can be approved. In the meantime, Jobb concedes that the BCDC is in effect a competitor in the field of industrial land development. The BCDC is presently continuing with development plans in Delta and is also looking to Chilliwack as another possible location for industrial development. He says he does not think that Gloucester's proposal is necessarily bad. but feels that no such development can be allowed without proper planning of the entire valley. When it was pointed out that such a plan could take two years or more. Jobb suggested that two months would be a much better guess. Planner Ken Major of Langley district, on the other hand, feels that two months would be an impossible time frame for a master industrial plan covering the entire valley. "I wouldn't want to try to do it in two months," he said, in reaction to Jobb's statements. "It's impossible to do in two or three months." Major felt that two years might be a little too long, but considers il just as accurate a guess as two months. The Langley district planning officer suggested that Vancouver to Hope industrial master plans have already been drawn up by other planners, but were subsequently made redundant by the provincial government's agricultural land freeze. DIRECTORS IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS Other cxerpts from planning committecc minutes released this week, reveal how some of the delays in approval or denial of the Gloucester application came about. In most cases the delays evolved from requests by directors for additional information, professional input or legal documentation. The first mention of Gloucester's development in the regional minutes was recorded at a meeting held on May 2b, 1977, ten days after Langley council approved the project at the municipal level. On the 26th, directors were given a run down on the development by their planning staff. They were told the size of the development; type of land use presently visible in the area; borders of the proposed industrial park; the soil classifications in the area and predominant land uses in areas adjacent to the proposed centre. 'Directors' page 6 MttMM SaaaasaaaLai ■BnaM THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1978 Not "petty issue" to farmers Continued from front page our produce now as we did years ago." Howard sells potatoes, unwashed and unbagged, at $2.25 for fifty pounds in his Matsqui store. He says potatoes cost him 5'/j to 6 cents a pound to produce. Supermarket prices range anywhere from 69 cents for ten pounds (locally grown) to 88 cents for five pounds (imported). "A lot of them come from California." says Howard. "California's our biggest competitor for produce of any kind because they have a year-round growing season. Two California farms, for example, can produce as many potatoes as the entire lower mainland can in one year." "Naturally we welcome imported produce during the winter i months because we can't grow anything, but we're competing with cheap imports in the summer too. 1 think B.C. should look after its own growers first, or else we'll all go out of business." Howard sells the bulk of his produce - lettuce, onions, cauliflower, cabbages, cucumbers, carrots and turnips • to the Vegetable Growers Co-op, where he is paid a set price. From there, the cleaned, graded and packaged produce is sold to retail stores. Howard can sell his produce in his own store, but he cannot sell directly to other retail stores. "We're just not being paid enough for our produce," he says. "It takes enough to grow and harvest vegetables, let alone worry about marketing them too". He. as the other farmers who took part in the demonstration in Cloverdalc, believes the government has neglected vegetable growers in the past. An income assurance program would at least keep vegetable growers from going broke, he says, especially in the face of competition from the U.S. "We're not fighting over a petty issue." he says. "We've got reason to protest. Everybody knows that food is not a luxury item. Agriculture is the backbone of the economy and we've got to keep it that way." ON THE OTHER HAND... Not every vegetable grower in the lower mainland supports the idea of a demonstration, Ted Horsting is one. "I'm definitely not going to the demonstration," Horsting said to the competitive market. I find I'm getting an average price for my produce." Horsting perhaps has an edge over most growers. Not only is he a grower, he's a processor too. You see, he owns Wcstvale Foods, a vegetable processing plant in Mission. "Maybe income assurance is a good idea for high-risk crops • peas and beans for instance - but crop insurance, both federal and provincial, is always available in case a grower loses his crop completely." says Horsting. As for competition from U.S. imports, Horsting admits that it is a problem, but he says even worse than that is competition from other lower mainland vegetable growers who sell their produce at any price. "For example, 1 was getting $8.75 a case (25 pounds) for brussel sprouts last year, but when some of the other growers in the area started taking lower prices just to get rid of their produce, my price eventually dropped down to $7.50 a case. Meanwhile, U.S. imports were still up at around $10.50." "There's talk now of lowering the tariffs for some U.S. imports. That'll lower prices for the consumer, but it'll make it worse for the area. We'll reach the point someday where we'll have to import everything because there won't be any farmers left in the valley". Horsting doesn't plan tjattend the Cloverdale demonstration mainly because he, as an independent vegetable grower, is doing alright without income assurance. "Some growers, though, like the potato growers, are having a tough time of it. There are thousands of pounds of potatoes in storage in Delta barns right now, which the farmers can't sell simply because cheaper U.S. imports arc available. "It's a pretty bad situation for them," he said. "I know if I was a potato farmer, I'd sure be in Cloverdale next Tuesday." Constant evaluation Continued from front page heads to the extent suggested by the board. "The idea of an evaluation of what department heads do at the secondary level has real validity," he added. "Most secondary principals rely very heavily on their department heads, or chairman." Harry Cullis, director of secondary education told the board that department heads are already being checked by both principals and senior administration. "Department heads change every year," said Cullis. "They're always being evaluated." Robertson said the new evaluation will continue the push for accountability started by the 1977 school board. "I don't know why people freeze when we say we'll do an evaluation," said trustee Kaye Armstrong, who said some teachers had not been evaluated in more than eight years prior to 1977. "We owe It to the district, we owe it to our students, to make sure the act is carried out." McClelland tolerant but... Continued from front page ings were turned down in favor of hiring an architect to create a design unique to the area. Service also told McClelland the education ministry should approve additional extensions for the new Aldergrove school for future use. "Once the plans have been approved, they should be approved for an 11 room school with a six room addition, for two years down the road," said Service. Westwood, one of four trustees in attendance at the meeting agreed, saying "each time plans go in for that extra addition, you have to go through the bureaucratic mill again. McClelland told the group his two years in the provincial cabinet had given him tolerance for the bureaucratic system, and he defended the education ministry's practice of changing building criteria. "How come you don't teach math the same way you did three years ago?" he asked. "You have to go through the system. The whole problem is speeding up the system." McClelland told the group the provincial government plans to introduce a regional 'facilitator' to speed both private and public builders through the bureaucratic maze. "I don't think it's fair to ask either a public body or a private entrepreneur to run around and do all the paperwork," he said. The facilitator would ensure that buildings met the criteria of all regulating organizations, allowing contractors to concentrate on the job. Richard R.

The board voted to send a letter of commendation to the paper's publishers after trustees and several senior administrators examined copies. "I've seen all the issues and I think they've done a very good job," said Langley city trustee Peter Fassbender, who suggested the letter be sent. The commendation joins the flood of favorable comments that have deluged the paper's offices on the Fraser Highway in recent weeks. A sampling range from 'good' to 'great' and from 'very interesting' to 'just delightful.' The board also voted to let the paper, The New Scene II continue publishing at Aldergrove elementary school until the end of the current school year. The paper began operating last October after the board granted approval on a three month trial basis. Since its inception it has published four times, with copies distributed free of charge to all parents of children attending Aldergrove elementary, school staff, advertisers, and members of the school board. "Our newspaper has been entirely self supporting, and is not in competition with the local newspaper, the Aldergrove Star," reported E.J. McWilliams, the school principal, Monday. McWilliams said the paper's staff had attempted to maintain 'a positive slant' in their writings, as well as maintaining a quality of composition and grammar in the newspaper's articles and stories. Revenue to pay printing costs is raised through advertising sales, and any Aldergrove elementary student may make a contribution to the paper. McWilliams said time spent in writing and setting up the newspaper doesn't encroach on school time designated for other subject, and he added that students arc developing interests in language arts through their jounalistic contributions to the New Scene. Along with favorable comments from parents in response to McWilliam's request for input there is the usual collection of critical remarks penned by those with no appreciation for fine journalism and no sensitivity towards the artistic goals of the writers. One malcontent complained of typographical errors, while another expressed dissatisfaction with the quality of the New Scene's press work. The paper's format was said to be slightly disorganized by one critic, and overly concerned with business news as opposed to school activities. The publishers were also asked if they could "separate your subjects and group them together" in order to achieve more easily defined sections, such as sports, art, and human interest. In his report to the board requesting an extension of the paper's charter under the terms of the board's approval, McWilliams said both teachers and parents are very supportive of the effort. Five staff members, headed by Jack Emberly, provide guidance and help to the young staff. Can FBDB help you?

Shelter Aid for Elderly Renters (SAFER) is a programme introduced last July which gives senior citizens direct monthly cash payments to assist in the payment of rent. The amount of the SAFER payment is based on how much income the senior citizen receives and how much is paid for rent. ' Eligibility All senior citizens who meet EACH of the following conditions are eligible: • 65 years or older • renters • paying more than 30% of their income for rent • in receipt of Canadian Old Age Security • the senior citizen OR spouse must have: 1) resided in British Columbia for two years immediately prior to application OR 2) resided in British Columbia for a continuous five year period at any time. Extension of Retro-Active Payment Period When the SAFER programme was first introduced, information cards were sent to ALL senior citizens of British Columbia. Based on the completed application forms received to date, it is apparent that many senior citizens who may be eligible for SAFER have not as yet applied. To ensure that all senior citizen renters in B.C. receive the full benefits due to them, we have extended the closing date for retroactive payments to March 31,1978. Payments can extend back to July 1, 1977. SAFER and Rent-Aid (Renters' Tax Credit) This is to remind ALL senior citizens that they should apply for Rent-Aid when completing their 1977 Income Tax Return whether they have been receiving SAFER payments or not. Every senior citizen renting in the Province as of December 31,1977 is entitled to a MINIMUM of $80.00 in Rent-Aid. Full information, assistance and application forms are available at the B.C.

In order to convince them to approve a septic tank and drainage system there arc a number of criteria that | have to be met. Or else, it is just S no permit. And no health permit, , no building license issued either. • Inspector Len Hiebert and two j other representatives for the local , office of the provincial health | department, summoned to appear before council this week, clearly ; outlined the requirements accord- i ing to their little book. I Number one. there must be at . least 18 inches of "undisturbed permeable soil" where a septic disposal field is to go in. If less than 18 inches, they won't even consider a conventional type septic system. If this minimum of 18 inches of topsoil was put in place by the last ice age. and if subsequent percolation tests show proper drainage in 30 minutes or less, then they require a builder to apply another 30 inches of an approved loosely structured top- soil on top where the field is scheduled to go. Then you can r. proceed with your building after ( oiher building requirements are , met. However, if you are unfortunate that the receding glaciers only left behind 17 inches of loose soil, Ihcn you are iust out of luck. It doesn't matter then if you plan to build on a quarter acre lot or you ; happen to own a parcel of 30 or 40 ; acres. Less than 18 inches of original soil, no license. Oh, you can try cheating. You can haul in loads upon loads of loose fill and pretend it was there since the day of creation. But your local inspectors are wise to such, i and it won't do you any good. j You'll just be out of pocket a few '■ thousand dollars. If you still want to go ahead and do this, alright, you can take a chance on the future. When the fill you brought in has sat there j for three or four or five years, then you can try the percolation bit once more and if it works out, then the health people might give you the coveted permit. They might, and then again they might not. Hiebert also had additonal advise for people with a stubborn'' streak: you should watch out for the kind of fill material you use. A lot of gravel has miniscule amounts of clay in it, he said,,but this, can nevertheless prove your downfall. This clay will eventually gravitate to the bottom of the drainage field where it will form a sludge that prevents the water from draining away. Also, you should never move soil around wilh machinery while the ground is wet. This will cause the topsoil to settle in a non-desirable way. Rather you should move soil around (whether on site soil or trucked-in topsoil) while everything is dry. and then wait for a good heavy rain to settle the dirt in a proper fashion. Finally, there arc alternatives to the conventional septic tank and drainage field system, but the health department usually frowns upon these. And under no circumstance should you expect the health department to suggest alternatives. A package plant, however, is one alternative which could work, according to Hiebert. A package plant is an oversize tank and field located in a good drainage area and serving a number of proper- tics. Neighborhood cooperation could facilitate this. But engineering marvels of alternate construction are generally not favored. Even if they do come above the seal and signature of a reputed civil engineer. The health inspector will look at such, mind you, but again there is no guarantee that they will satisfy his requirements. If an applicant can produce "the documents to back him up," then the inspector might also (require that the engineer who designed the system supervise the actual construction. "It is very tricky to install," according to Hiebert. This proviso could New and i ibigger book-mobile lABBOTSFORD — The new II- Jbrary bookmobile has now arrived ;at the Fraser Valley regional 'library.

About the difference in percolation tests carried out in the wetness of winter and the dryness of summer, Hiebert had this to say, "You can pretty well tell even in summertime if it is going to work or not." Said Hiebert, "We would be neglecting our responsibilities if we did not enforce these rules." THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1978 Two charged with willful damage CLEARBROOK — The names of . two people, aged 19 and 21, who are charged jointly with 17-year- old Bradley Norman Heppncr, were released by Matsqui provincial court prosecutor Gary Ab- rams this week.

It is of paramount importance that they get to know every detail of your life, including, perhaps, as suggested by Mayor George Driediger, intimate revelations about what goes on after the lights go out in the master bedrooms of the citizenry. We understand this. After all, we have been brought up to believe in authority. It Is only for our own good. Big Brother — or Sister — will look after us. And it is also for the same philanthropic purposes that our benefactors, the politicians, no sooner having been elected to office do they retire into the famous smoke-filled rooms and start hatching marvellous Ideas which are duly recorded in minute books and thereupon immediately stamped CONFIDENTIAL'. They guard these same books as diligently as the smoke-bellowing dragon used to watch the beautiful princess of yore. It is all for our own protection, because we, the unannointed masses, do not really know what is best for us. We are not the same superior Intellects as those we choose to hold public office. We are not the Immortals. The world is indeed unfolding. And it comes almost as a shock to us when it once In a blue moon seems to be unfolding the way It should. Such was the matter In hand last week. First there was the case of the majority of Langley district councilors castigating local bureaucrats for their zeal of devotion in trying to introduce more mumbo-jumbo into "informational data" about thou and I. The bureaucrats will probably win In the end, but at least there has been opposition, and this has been recorded for our astonished grandchildren to read in the annals of history. Secondly there was the case of the Central Fraser Valley regional district board. These devoted men and women, you will recall, had taken the not unusual attitude that what went on during their committee meetings were not fit for our more common eyes or ears. They categorically refused to release these minutes, all duly attached with the awe-inspiring 'CONFIDENTIAL' stamp, to public scrutiny. In the end it appeared that someone knew the Municipal Act better than these zealots and last week, after considerable self-searching, they deemed It prudent to release at least part and portion of the documents to the public, in care of The Star. In this case the public owes a debt of gratitude to Matsqui alderman (and former mayor) Douglas G. Taylor, who was the one originally pointing out that Joe Citizen has certain rights under the Municipal Act when it comes down to dealings with the government. Taylor pointed out, and this was later confirmed by The Star's legal counsel, that politicians do not- contrary no doubt to what they like to think—have the right to withhold public information from the public. The only instances where our elected representatives can legally withhold information is really when it comes down to a question of national security. National security on the municipal or regional level? Not very bloody likely. They can, under certain circumstances, retire into in-camera meetings, but not without first telling us — in general terms, that is — what they intend to be discussing. And after the minutes of standing committee meetings have been adopted, neither can they refuse to make same public. It is all in the Act. If we know our politicians right, the Act will probably be amended. But in the meantime we, the outsiders, have won a battle of sorts. It is enough to give you renewed confidence in the human race. Government for the people or Government to excess? Prince Philip, never noted for his reticence, got himself in trouble recently for suggesting that the level of government interference in the lives of the people of Britain was approaching the Orwellian era of 1984. Prince Philip was not railing at the almost daily recital of major and minor violations of civil rights, frightening as that may be. Rather, it would appear that he was attacking a cast of mind which says bigness in government is an inevitable and necessary outgrowth of technological democracy. While we sympathize with the views expressed by Prince Philip, we must recognize that the more complex the society and the more intricate personal relations become, the more government Intervention there will be. The problem is to know how much Interference is too much, how little not enough. In attempting to throw some light on the question, the Reverend Clarke MacDonald, deputy secretary of the United Church's Division of Mission In Canada, recently told a men's club in Chatham, Ontario, that It was the responsibility ol the Christian conscience to determine "what Is too much and/or too little." Governments and the people that run and administer them, exist solely for the citizens of the nation they rule. But if those citizens demand more and more In the way of social benefits, government bureaucracies will increase in direct proportion at best and more likely out of all proportion. When this happens, denial of human rights looms as a real danger and George Orwell's fictional prophecy of a Big Brother watching over our every move could become reality. As Dr. MacDonald pointed out In his Chatham address, determining what Is too much or too little is a matter of conscience. Every citizen should make sure that the voice of conscience Is heard in parliament and legislative assemblies. T-man snubs my 91.75 ^NDIRINGr WRDNfir WITH &B& WOS&JNM? OKe> GVRD seeks more industry An estimated 6,400 acres of land is required for industrial development in the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD) over the next 10 to 15 years, witli the greatest demand in Surrey. Delta, Richmond, Burnaby and Coquitlam. So says a press release issued last week by the GVRD. About 54.000 new jobs would be created by the anticipated industrial development. This information is contained in a 90-page report prepared by the GVRD planning department. It is part of the regional district's 'Livable Region Program' which has as one of its aims the direction of more commercial and industrial jobs to suburban areas, closer to where people live. There arc about 130.000 existing industrial jobs in the region, 55 percent of them in manufacturing and 45 percent in warehousing and distribution activities. Of the 6.400 acres required to meet expected industrial demand in the coming 10 to 15 years it is estimated that about 2.000 will be needed in Surrey and 1,000 in Delta. Another 950 acres is required in Richmond, 700 in Burnaby. 650 in Coquitlam and 380 in Port Coquitlam. Vancouver would need about 110 acres. New Westminster 250 and North Vancouver District 250. Ottawa is pregnant VANCOUVER - The federal government can't generate economic activity in Canada when it takes nine months — or more — to pass a federal budget. This was the opinion of Dennis F. Culver, president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia, who spoke Thursday night to the Financial Exccutivs' Institute. Culver said the federal government has taken anywhere from two months to one year to pass the last six federal budgets. "This is long enough to beget a human being, let alone a simple budget paper," he said. "The 1977 budget, handed down on March 31, was passed just before Christmas — another full-term baby." Culver sais this means that there has been almost a full year's delay in implementing measures that were supposed to aid the economy. While the budget was before the House, business was held back, waiting for legislative approval, and many developments which the federal government hoped its budget would promote failed to materialize. He said that to encourage business activity government Three fixtures ALDERGROVE - The best government offices in Langley have three priceless fixtures; an executive to think up an idea, an assistant to point out why it can't be done, and a secretary to do it. should: • Accelerate the budget process; • Simplify tax laws; • Re-appraise and integrate business aid plans; • Give investors a quick write-off; and • Give new business ventures an initial tax holiday. "We are cyclical beings, and so are our businesses," Culver told the financial analysts. "Perhaps Canada with its harsh extremes, massive forestry, grain and fishing industries — all tightly attuned to the seasonality of nature — is among the most cyclical of countries. "If two or more seasons go by, without any action, then that may mean a delay of a year or more in economic activity." Culver said the federal government seems to be more concerned with protecting taxes and closing tax loopholes than stimulating economic activity. "Since the introduction of tax reform in 1971, there have been more than 1,000 amendments to the Income Tax Act. In that time, wc have lived with an extremely complex act," he said. This makes it expensive and time-consuming for businessmen who have to comply with this complicated legislation and this has produced "an inertia effect" in business planning and decisions, he said. "Il would be far more useful for the government to do some forward looking economic planning than backward-looking tax protection work," the institute president said.

Postage paid In Aldergrove, B.C. Too many cooks By JIM SMITH Every cloud has a silver lining. To wit: one of life's small blessings is wc don't get as much government as we pay for. Of course, we do get far more than we need. Or desire. Sad to say. we've got so much government thai the various levels keep getting in one another's way. Sometimes, overzcalousness on the part of one level of government can put intolerable strain on the whole system. Something like that has been taking place at the federal level. To sum up the problem: Ottawa has forgotten the meaning of "federal government". In a federation, regions which arc characterized by local social issues deal with those issues on their own. Those issues which affect all residents of the federation equally and in the same way arc dealt with by the central government. In Canada, therefore, a proper federation would find the provinces looking after all issues of provincial interest while Ottawa would cover the national issues like defence. Sometimes the centra) government gets ovcrambitious and begins intruding into regional affairs. The result is almost always unpleasant. The United States, for example, might be part of England today if the central government in Britain had agreed to spin off more local powers to the regional government in the New World. Donald Smiley, a professor at Toronto's York University, recently compiled a list of federal departments which clearly trespass on provincial legislative grounds. Among his findings: Ottawa has frequently given grants to local interest groups such as inner-cily anti-poverty associations; a Department of the Environment now exists at the federal level: Ottawa is active in consumer protection; and numerous programs have been set up on a national level to include matters such as amateur sport, musical culture, and so on. Every one of those functions is probably handled best on a regional level since the effects arc highly localized. Quebec has taken offence lately — and quite rightly — to federal interference with provincial affairs. The province had made it quite clear that it wants Ottawa to refrain from attempting to influence education, health care, pensions or any of many other local matters. Other provinces arc beginning to realize the extent to which their sovereignty has been undermined. There's more to the story than local pride, however. Federal action in provincial circles normally results In duplication of services. Do Canadian consumers, for example, benefit from being protected by two departments of consumer affairs — or is the end result not merely a waste of tax dollars? Or docs it make se nsc to have Ottawa providing the same kind of manpower training incentives to business that are being administered by the provinces. Apparently no one in Ottawa has heard what too many cooks will do to the broth. By LLOYD PHILLIPS "And so, LP," said the T-man, "anything you spill your silly little jjut over to us will forever remain a secret, for we know the mortification you would feel if your fellow-minions of the tax- paying world came to know ho* little you really valued in this world." "But, but, but," we said, "supposing that snowy-headed galoot from the Yukon, Pierre What's'sface, calls and wants to know our tax position, what then?" "Well," said the Taxman, "why should you worry? Your taxes don't even pay for the drinks your MP guzzles on Air Canada as he works like Hell for you unapprciativc guys. I'd kinda shut up if I were you. You don't have anything to hide, do you? Or do you?" "I've always been suspicious of you guys who thought your business was just yours. Now you're mouthing off just because the loan shark down the street wants to know how much you made last year, how many wives you support and how many free meals you mooched and how I know not, oh, I know not Have you ever noticed that "eminent scientists," to use the newspaper phrase, never say ''I don't know," like the rest of u»? They always say, "We don't know," speaking for everybody who is anybody, as if what they don't know must not be known at all. Well, they are at it again, according to reports of a new "Encyclopedia of Ignorance," for which 60 such scientists were invited to describe knowledge gaps which they would like to see filled. The savants admit they do not know what matter is, for example, or why pain sometimes seems to occur without injury and vice versa. They don't know how a > big, visible flower is formed, though they think they understand how invisible molecules are put together. They wonder whether nature operates according to chance or natural-law. It sounds like a book we would like to have, and nothing said here is meant to reflect on its serious merits. But why should scientists be the only ones to display their ignorance? How many of us have not quite rightly said, "Boy, what I don't know would fill a book!" For one thing, if a noneminent nonscientist had been asked, he would not have fallen for the prediction that "The Encyclopedia of Ignorance" will have to get smaller and smaller as hew facts are discovered.'Isn't it a simple home truth that the more you know the more you realize you don't know? Logically, any survey of ignorance can only get bigger and bigger. Perhaps some people have been excluded from "The Encyclopedia of Ignorance" because they know all the old songs that explain everything. At least a generation of sweethearts must remember "You and 1", for example, whose title phrase gives the obvious answer to why the sky is blue and the birds sing. And ignorance cannot be bliss for those unaware that what makes the world go 'round is no more mysterious than love. Or consider an ancient proverb: When one is a child and knows nothing, mountains are mountains, trees are trees, and waters are waters. But when one has studied and knows a little, mountains are no longer mountains, trees are no longer trees and waters arc no longer waters. But when one has learned and fully understands, mountains arc again mountains, trees are trees, and waters are waters. This is no counsel for eminent scientists to stop trying to reduce the scope of what "we don't know." But it may be a reminder that yesterday's facts sometimes turn but to have been ignorance after all. And today's deepest ignorance may lie not in the things we think we don't know but in the things we think we know which just aren't so. much you did the department out of. What the Hell do you think this is. a free country or something? Anyway, you heard the boss say there was no way information is ever leaked from the Tax Department." "Yes, but wasn't there some way a fellow could phone in and get all the dope on us dopes?" sobbed LP. "What are you, an unbeliever?" shouted the T-man. "You gotta have confidence in us guys, ya know. We wouldn't tell anybody about that tiny little contribution that you made to Canada last year, would we? We have our pride too, you know, and you're so far down there that we'd have to cut a postage stamp in half to even find you." "But." we sobbed, "how about that couple hundred million those guys in the Tower of Babble at Ottawa gave the International Nickel Company? Didn't we contribute to that?" "Shut your face." snarled the T-man. "Do you think that is any of your business, just because you send us a few miserable bucks? Don't think that we don't know you got a couple of free beers at Sparwood last year? And how about that free pen you got from that advertising company in Toronto? And the spuds you grew in your garden and didn't report? And how about that time when your friend treated you to potato chips al the Motor Inn? Worse still, remember the time you won a bottle of booze in die Kinsmen raffle in 1966? You didn't report that, now, did you? "And now you have the gall to be fussy about your little income tax form. Why. no one with any . pride would be caught reading that thing, now would they?" Our life style is now completely destroyed. No longer can we claim to be "up there" with the likes of Burton or Gordon Sinclair, for. lurking in the wings may be some fella who phoned up Ihe Tax Department and found the truth. In a way. though, it's a relief. Now, wc can be like Imperial Oil, the company whose profits increased by 24 per cent in the third quarter of 1977 to a measly 571-million. We haven't worked out the percentage, but for those who have to know, we now admit our profits in the third quarter of 1977 came to $1.75 before Income Tax. Now dig that out of the Tax Department. Pierre Burton. (Ed. Note: Mr. Phillips is editor of the Femic Free Press). LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Trails are getting scarce Editor, The Star, Sir, This letter is in response to your articles on the equestrian trails proposed in the Aldergrove- Langley area. I have lived in the Fraser Valley for four years now and hive had horses and ponies in the family for the past 10 years. I had originally moved from Burnaby and living only on a city lot, always had to board my horses elsewhere in the community- ' Moving from the city to the valley Was a little disappointing in terms of places to ride. I could mike a whole day of riding on the different trail circuits available In Burnaby.There were exceptionally good trail systems on Burnaby Mountain, Burnaby Lake and Park, not strictly for horses, but hikers, nature lovers add even motorcycles. Upon moving to the country 1 had the impression that there would be loads of placet to ride, even a nice ride down • quiet country road overlooking beautiful farms and scenery weuld be very satisfying. However, as the Valley is rapidly building up and once-upon-a-time trails are being covered up with housing development! and roads the space is becoming more and more limited. Riding on some roods is fine, but I enjoy taking my two dog» with me and the inconsideratlon shown to us by some motorists Is really pathetic. I have found myself quite panicky when being pinned on a narrow toad shoulder with a huge ditch on one side and a semi-trailer truck or speeding motorist coming up towards or behind me. I think some drivers tend to forget or are ignorant to the fact that a horse can shy out directly in front of them at the flutter of a leaf. Personally, I think there is no ■ »$$•; ■:.".: "••• better a way to enjoy the outdoors than by horseback and think serious consideration should be given to the plans of equestrian trails, as it is an outdoor recreation just as skiing, hiking, soccer etc. and should have some allotted areas provided so that horse owners and riders of all ages can have more enjoyment.

In this report Mr. Thomas uses the word "Mennonite" as if it referred to a race of people - which, of course, it docs not • it refers to a religion. Surely in this day and age our thinking has, hopefully, progressed beyond the narrow confines of racism, bigotry, and name-^ calling. We are trying to build a unified Canada and a universal brotherhood of man, with citizens who think in terms of care, concern, nnd consideration rather, than racism, intolerance, and prejudice.

The other point is re Mr. R. Winters, former director of elenv, entary education and instruction.' Mr. Winters, contrary to Mr..

FARENHOLTZ . i Langley Teacher Thf GREG THOMAS flffMSSSSi THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1978 The controversy surrounding a proposal for a horse trail that would link Aldergrove Lake and Campbell River parks is a classic example of the Seven Dwarf mentality that dominates some aldermanic minds at municipal hall. (If we could just get rid of these trees, we'd have a fantastic mining industry). In their rush to make Langley a suburban bedroom community to rival Burnaby, they seem prepared to abandon all the advantages the rural areas of the municipality have over such a dull community. Most Vancouverites who choose to live in Langley would rather have the joy of horseback riding than the comfort of an environmentally-sound toilet flush. One of the multitude of readers who wrote the Star last week to protest some of the comments made by alderman Jock Lindsay and Stan Fraser pointed out that property taxes here provide very few urban amenities. No sewer, no water, no streetlights, no sidewalks, no ditch cleaning, and no snow plows were among the services she listed. As the agricultural land freeze has effectively ensured there will be rural areas in the locale for many years to come, it might be wise for municipal council to take advantage of the green space rather than complain about it. A well developed system of trails for horseback riders would no doubt prove helpful in boosting the sagging property market, much more than sidewalks, streetlights, and snowplows could ever do for a comparative amount of money. ••» Either Brian Westwood's election as chairman of the local school board was rigged, or some of the trustees who sit on the board have amazing powers of perception.

If they could do it at the track, our taxes would drop. 200 Langley businessmen could have their licenses revoked if they don't return newly circulated business license applications to municipal hall pretty soon. Several local entrepreneurs have complained the applications ask for too much information. Along with the name and the nature of the business applying for the license, the applicant is required to state his personal name, address, and phone number, his birth date, and his birth certificate number. That's just for starters. Municipal hall also wants to know if the businessman has any other business licenses, if he has ever applied for a license and been refused, and if he has a criminal record. If the unfortunate merchant should answer yes, then he is also expected to state the details. Every businessman is also required to have two references. The somewhat inquisitive document is vigorously defended by the district's license inspector, Sylvia Jimmo. She says businessmen with nothing to hide shouldn't complain about filling in any kind of application, and she suggests that a lot of locals who arc refusing to complete the application do have something to hide. The forms were mailed out in December to all 500' registered businesses in the district. Since their use began more than three years ago, only new businesses have been required to complete one, while established businesses were spared. Jimmo says the questionable information expected of businessmen is useful to the RCMP, the Better Business Bureau, and private citizens who want details of a company's ownership. The application came to the attention of council last year when birth information was added at the request of the RCMP. Mayor George Driediger is reported to have suggested a more comprehensive document be introduced to provide the local government with necessary information on businessmen's sex lives. •*• A talc guaranteed to bring shivers down the collective spine of hockey fans made the rounds this weekend at the annual ladies' curling bonspiel at the civic centre.

MURRAYVILLE — Councilmen here have charged the municipal, administration with the task of finding out how many civic employees take their 'company cars' home with them after the end of the day.

After hearing this first report on Gloucester's application, directors are reported in the minutes as disagreeing on the correct concerns board members should resolve prior to approval. Director Chris Lamb of Matsqui questioned the ownership of the property. She also expressed concern over people living in the area and over the possible loss of good agricultural land. Lamb also asked if the project would effect other industrial developments in Langley. Langley director Jock Lindsay, replied that competition between Gloucester and other industrial developers in the area would be healthy for Langley. Director Bill Blair, also from Langley district, concluded discussion of the application by outlining his own concerns. "Director Blair stated that there are two questions — is this development good for the Township of Langley. and, is this the right time." read the minutes. No motions were passed on Gloucester's proposal that day. The nest mention of Gloucester is in the minutes of June 29. It was at this meeting that Ferguson called for a meeting with Jobb, who represents a crown corporation in direct competition with Gloucester. As reported, this meeting took place on July 20. At a planning meeting on August 10, the proposal came up again. Like all council or regional minutes, the minutes of August 10 simply summarize debate at the table. They do not actually quote direct statements from board members. The August 10 minutes do however, reveal how the CFVRD. like many regional districts, tends to bog down in debate. To interpret these minutes would be like trying to interpret a complicated slice of legislation. It is not possible to say whether or not parochial thinking was evident at the debating table on August 10. For that reason. The Star has decided to print the entire text of the August 10 minutes. Editors notations have been added in bold at various points throughout the documents. These are to add clarification and arc not part of the minutes as released from the board Monday. STILL MORE TO COME? The August 10 minutes were among the most revealing documents released by the CFVRD Monday. Other minutes requested by The Star were, as reported, not released. Senior staff at the CFVRD say that the other minutes called for, do not contain any references to Gloucester Properties' proposed development. In spite of this, the entire subject uf releasing standing committee minutes has created an atmosphere of confusion in our editorial offices, and we are sure il lias done the same in local halls of government. For this reason, The Star's legal representatives will be meeting with members of the editorial staff this week to determine if more in-camera minutes should be actively pursued through legal channels. Whether more minutes arc released or not, however, is not deemed relevant to the ongoing investigation into Gloucester's re/oning application. CONFIDENTIAL CENTRAL FRASER VALLEY REGIONAL DISTRICT SPECIAL PLANNING MEETING MINUTES AugusflOth, 1977-7:30 P.M. PRESENT: Chairman H. DeJong Matsqui Directors R.H. Easingwood Langley City C. Lamb Matsqui J. R. Lindsay Langley District C. Wright Sumas W. C. Blair Langley District G. F. Ferguson Abbotsford V.R.B. Ward, Secretary-Treasurer CFVRD Employee IN ATTENDANCE: Janice Richmond, Regional Planner Mai Harper - Industrial Development Officer) Township Ken Major • Director of Planning Tom Raincy - Administrator, Township of Langley Mark Hambridge, Matsqui-Abbotsford Joint Planner. The meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M. The Chairman (Harry DeJong) stated that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss the proposed Fraser Industrial Park in the Township of Langley. The application has been tabled and therefore this meeting is for discussion purposes. Mai Harper presented a report regarding the need for jobs within the Central Fraser Valley Regional District. Industrial development is needed to broaden the economic base, to create job opportunities for the population, relieve the traffic volume on the highways. The development of Fraser Industrial Park will tend to keep the costs of other industrial land at a fair market price. Industrial land prices in the Township of Langley have increased from $30,000. to 560,000. /acre. Approximately 25% of the people living in the tertiary sector. The G.V.R.D. has 8+ acres of industrial land per thousand population; C.F.V.R.D. has 5+ acres - 12,000 acres of industrial land. There is a shortage of serviced industrial land at this time. Presently the Township of Langley has 680 acres of zoned industrial land in north-west Langley and ISO acres in Aldergrove. Industry is not relocating rapidly. Director Ferguson stated that this proposal has to be evaluated in a regional context. Industrial development creates secondary spin-offs. Director Lamb stated that more consideration should be given to the planning and other spin-off effects of the proposed development. Not all the traffic will flow north, west or south. No consideration has been given to traffic flows eastward. The District of Matsqui has only one road to a standard that will be able to carry the additional traffic. Also, much of the proposal is more service-commercial than industrial. The list of proposed industries is the Standard Industrial Classification. Firm committments should be made by several major industries before development proceeds. Director Blair stated that the proposal will add to the economic base of the entire Regional District. All servicing would be undertaken by the developers. The site has limited agricultural potential - drainage, fertilizing, etc. would be needed. Director Lindsay stated that this development would be leased - provides an additional options. Traffic plans would have to be developed. Janice Richmond stated that the secondary spin-offs are of importance and must be considered in depth by the Regional District Board. Traffic flows, effect development on adjacent land in the District of Matsqui and in the township of Langley, employment generation; have not been considered at all. The proposal does not provide sufficient information regarding types of industry and other secondary spin-offs. Basic data is lacking on this proposal. An environmental assessment study should be considered before any decision is reached. Mark Hambridge stated that insufficient information is given by the developer. The proposal is not justified in a regional or local context, the site does have some agricultural potential, the sub-regional impact as well as the local impact on Aldergrove has not been considered. In addition, the proposal as presented includes a poor concept plan as the uses proposed arc essentially all urban uses except residential. In Matsqui, the demand for residential development would be increased while reducing the municipality's ability to diversify its economy. Additional costs would be imposed in Matsqui without a corresponding adjustment in tax revenue. The land-use, not the method of title, is the important factor. A new urban area is being created divided by Highway No. 1. The Fraser Highway will be forced to carry additional industrial commuter traffic. The retail component should be more closely defined. Director Easingwood stated that the City of Langley has 200 acres of undeveloped industrial land available. Chairman DeJong stated that a fair distribution of industrial land should be determined within the Regional District for each member municipality. An impact study should be conducted by a consultant firm at the developer's expense. Terms of Reference should be developed by the Regional Planner. The Township of Langley has a Community Plan under consideration. The Terms of Reference should be prepared involving Planning staffs of the District of Matsqui and Township of Langley. The meeting was adjourned on a motion of Director Lindsay. CERTIFIED CORRECT: By H. DeJong and J. Richmond. funding denied Abbotsford school ABBOTSFORD - School district 34 will fight a decision by the ministry of education to withhold $25,000 for Maple Grove school for handicapped children in Abbotsford. The director of school finance for the ministry has advised district 34 school board that an additional basic instructional unit would not be granted for Maple Grove school in 1978, as the school could not be considered a separate entity. The school board, however, sees no reason why funding should be withheld this year. "Maple Grove has always been recognized as a separate school in the past and it has always had its own principal," said chairman Brian Hambley at the board's first meeting of the new year last Thursday. He urged the board to take a firm stand and "go after Victoria on this." "It is. after all, a matter of S25,0O0," he said. The decision not to allocate a basic instructional unit for the school was based on recommendations from Frances Fleming, assistant superintendent of the ministry's special programs branch. In a letter to the director, Fleming wrote: "It is • against ministry policy to encourage segregation by schools of any group, be it on the basis of sex, race or ability. We see no justification for Maple Grove being other than the annex of a nearby school. This will permit better supervision, integration of staff and specialist teachers, and It's not how you play the game MURRAYVILLE - Blackmail is the name of the game. Langley district council wants the GVRD to allow the construction of a temporary soccer field on land adjacent to South Carvolth Road elementary school. Meanwhile, the GVRD wants Langley to endorse a request to add 20 acres of land to the Campbell River Regional Park. Council refuses to endorse the GVRD's parkland proposal until the regional board moves on their playground request. Asked if this was blackmail, Langley Mayor George Driediger said: "Damn right it is! The morality in this case is judged by who wins." the possibility of some pupils being enrolled in bridging classes. We do not support the appeal that Maple Grove should be funded as an entity." Twenty-eight handicapped children are enrolled in the school on Gladwin Road in Abbotsford. Another discotheque proposed LANGLEY — City council here was presented last week with yet another recommendation for a teenagers' disco. The recommendation Was made by protection committtee chairman Aid. Iris Mooney who said that at present there are few recreational facilties for teenagers who aren't interested in sports except for bowling alley and theatre. Mooney said that, although Langley RCMP opposed two previous teen disco applications because of their proximity to liquor outlets, they realized the importance of such an establishment to give the teens "something to do." In early November, city council expressed concern over difficulties in policing teenagers who congregate in the downtown Langley sector.

The whole thing makes jest as littel sense as enythin' wot cums frum the Guv'mint ... except it costs a lot more than their usual shenanigansl It's sorta like thrashin' out a bunch of statutes after a year or so of junipiii' up an down makin' speeches like they wus all on pogo sticks - jest to tell folks wot get married how to figger out workin' in double harness. Wot I mean is, it's jest sumthin' best left fcr to work out natchcral like. F'rinstancc, most folks has a mighty gud regard fcr Will Shakespeare. Wen the movies an the TV figger on tryin' a shur fire thing instid of the crud folks is gettin' tired of, they turn to Shakespeare... an ev'ry dang one has bin a box-office hit so far! But if the politishuns had been runuin' things, they wud have legislated this into the dialogue: "Daw. you have begecked me! I yukc to pingle with you and ycrk you until you ghost! (Bein' natcheral-born sneaky, I'll tell you at the end wot it means, jest so's you have to read all the Back Porch!) Enyways. wot I mean is. sum things is best left fcr to stratcn themselves out with the best grease in the world, wich is TIME. F'rinstancc. after sufferin' French fcr two or three excroo- shiatin' years about forty years ago. I ain't had a chanct so far to ask "Where is the pen of my Aunt" ... or lo ask a feller to "Ouvrcz la fenctre". But there have shur as heck bin a lotta times I wud have wanted to find where the John wus ... in a hurry! It's sorta like studyin' Spanish a ycre er so ago. wen 1 tuk the wife an me to Mexico, after figurin' the best way to keep the Guv'mint's hands outta my pock- its wus to spend it before they got it. Well, sir, first things cum first. I sez - so I memorized the important one: "for favor, Senor - dondc esta el bano por los hombrcs?" General spcakin', by the time they figgcrcd wot I wanted, it wus too late! So the next ycre, an the next time arount, I ast an old Mexican an he ses "It's rclc simple, Senor. "You holds ycrself rele urgent an you luks sorta agonized. Then voir ses. 'Amino ... El Excusado, PRONTO!- " Well, sir, I luks it up in the armful of Spanish dictionaries I wus carryin'. an be danged if I cud find "Excusado" in one of 'em! So I tossed 'cm all out an fer the rest of the trip I carried the expensive one. It fit real handy in my hip pockit • an I found it rele Local kids tough ALDERGROVE — It seems kids in Aldergrove are tougher than kids in Langley; or at least less prone to the flu bug. A random survey of local elementary schools showed 344 students absent as a result of the flu, along with 15 teachers, two principals, and one senior administrator. Areas hardest hit were Belmont, in Brookswood, where 47 students were absent the day of the survey, Murrayvillc, where 47 students also didn't make it to classes, and Simonds. in Langley city, where 59 were absent. Aldergrove elementary had the highest attendance figure, with only seven students absent, while Parksidc Centennial elementary had only 22 absentees. Opening hours sufficient says director ALDERGROVE — The public in this community is quite content with the opening hours of the local library branch, Aid. Elford Nundal told a meeting of council Monday morning. Complaints about inadequate opening hours came from the local business sector, he said. According to Nundal, council's representative on the library board, the budget cannot bear any extension of the opening hours at the present time. The library, which recently moved from Fraser Highway to a new location within the Aldergrove Centre shopping mall, ,is open Tuesdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Thursdays and Fridays from 1 to 9 p.m. The outlet is located in the south-eastern corner of the mall. useful! The paper wus high-class an tore out nice an square. Y'see, langwidge is sumthin' politishuns shud keep their sticky finger outta ... like, f'rinstance, the Sputnik. Seems like in 1957, Americans figgcrcd evcrythin' wot wus BIGGEST and BEST cum frum the U.S. of A. - includin' American as she wus spoke. So they sorta ignored teachin' languages of two-bit countries in their colleges, an concentrated on football. AN THEN THE ROOSIANS LAUNCHED SPUTNIK! Wen they recovered frum the shock, fellers in the States got a second one ... Prof. Mikhailov, Director of the Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, showed up in Washington an tolt them that all the information had appeared in Roosian scientific journals a year before! Wen the American recovered frum shock an scrambled thru the back files, they found he wusen't kiddin'! ... an it wusen't long before the Presidio of Monterey, in California had four or five thousand fellers, all the way frum buck privates to colonels, studyin' THIRTY foreign languages, with four hundred instructors! But teachin' the Army where the next Sputnik is comin' frum is a helluva lot diffrunt than rcadin' French on the corn flakes box - wich is wot our Guv'mint is spendin' millyuns to do. So the way I sees it, if wc are trying to sell Canada's products to the rest of the world, it ain't gonna do a helluva lotta gud to say in High School French "Ouvrez la fenctre!" F'rinstance, kids wot are majoring in Roosian colleges in the sciences take up to TWELVE YEARS in a compuslory foreign language ... wile our kids have a helluva time even talkin' English! All of wich shur makes a feller think that sumbody shud be takin' a close luk at our kids, their .langwidge problims...an, some ' how, 1 don't think it shud be the Guv'mint! After all, we are tryin' to sell timber an metal an ev'ry other goldang thing we produce. We arc tryin' to sell it all over the world... but who in heck is buyin' Bilingual cornflakes!? Footnote, fcr them as has tufted it out so far: Shakespeare's translashun above, expressed in modern langwidge is this: "Fool, you have cheated me! I itch to fight with you and hit you till you die!"

Chilliwack. zone commander), Ann Campbell (president), Sid ABBOTSFORD — School district 34 operations committee has hit on an idea that could save the district up to $70,000 this year. Trustee Doug Hamilton, who attended a recent two-day energy conference in Vancouver with secretary-treasurer Bill Sharp, told district 34 school board that the Greater Victoria district was able to trim $70,000 off its energy bill last year, simply by lowering thermostats a few degrees and turning off lights wherever possible. Hamilton now hopes a similar energy conservation program can be implemented in the Abbotsford school district. "We could save thousands of dollars just through small adjustments at minimal cost," he said, "by setting guidelines for the schools and making the children aware of energy conservation." Sharp will meet with a representative of the B.C. Energy Commission this week to discuss energy conservation in schools. Meanwhile, a survey of all schools will be carried out, beginning with Huntingdon elementary, to determine the cost of upgrading schools to the recommended energy consumption standard. As well, a letter will be drafted and sent to all employees detailing methods of conserving energy.

In the second half, however, United took complete control of the game, as the Buckeroos had lost all of their steam. Chances started to click for United and they finally got on the scoreboard. Alberto Rome- gioli picking up a perfect pass from Hank Klysoon, broke through the defence and seemed assured of a goal. This was not to be as Romegioli was chopped down from behind in the box. The penalty shot was put in by Bill Docherty and United was up 1-0. This goal seemed to ignite Aldergrove and Steve Malish made it 2-0 on a great individual effort. Just as things were looking good for Aldergrove they lapsed and let the "Bucks" score to draw within one. That was the Bucks only surge in the latter part of the game and it proved useless. Again the Aldergrove side came swarming back, the Buckeroos being lucky not to allow any more goals. Aldergrove's pressure paid off as Steve Malish knocked in his second goal after some nice passing from Klysoon and Romegioli. Final score 3-1 for United. The entire team played well, especially Ralph Zillich who had his finest game of the year. Another standout was the play of Mark Brier. He had been out of action due to injury for several months, and this was his first time back on the field. Breier proved himself extremely well. Aldcrgroves next cup game is unknown yet, as the games have to be drawn. Get fit and keep fit \ Kohlers and Kinsmen tie 0FI beat Legion The first period was slow wilh neither team scoring.

Dr. Al Ocming. internationally acclaimed conservationist and naturalist, television personality and director of the world renowned Alberta Game Farm, will present an immense and moving wildlife documentary entitled "Lives Of The Hunted". This is the story of North Mid-term review shows soc. studies classes trimmed for daily phys-ed ABBOTSFORD - Trustee Lester Inmnn disagrees with the concept of slating daily physical education classes at the expense of social studies and sciences, and he made his feelings clear at the district 34 school board meeting last Thursday evening. "I object to tinie being taken from social studies for phys-ed at the elementary school level" he said. "I have nothing against phys-ed, but I object strongly when social sludics and the sciences arc sacrificed for daily phys-ed classes. The time should rather be taken front art or music classes." Roy McLoughlin, district supervisor of intermediate instruction and special services, raised the point in his report to the education committee, noting that, "while visiting intermediate grade classrooms in the district, I have noticed that teachers have time tabled for programs in daily physical education and elementary French, at the expense of science and social studies, rather than from other cultural activities." The district director of elementary education, Paul Rcdekop, explained at the board meeting that the concentration of arts, sciences and languages at the elementary school level limits areas where time can be trimmed for classes in other subjects. Rcdekop said he would prepare a representative sample of subject allotments for the next meeting.

Other upcoming events include: a roller skating, party for Aldergrove school, Thursday, February 9, at Lyndcn; and "Hicks Day" and a sockhop sometime in early February. The gnu! play production is heavy into rehearsals, and the date has been tentatively scheduled for February 23 and 24. The annual Varicity Show should be prcinicring sometime in early- April. Mrs. Secord. directing both productions should be very busy during ihe next few months and is hoping for lots of support. I hope everyone docs well on their report cards as the semester nears its end.

The former Prime Minister asked for and received a debate on Canada's foreign relations policy. Following are excerpts from his remarks: "There were limes in the past when I represented Canada at various conferences both before and after 1 became Prime Minister. Since 1963. for some reason I have never had the opportunity of going to any conference even in a minor capacity. 1 can only conclude the reason is that 1 do nol have those qualifications which other members of the House have. On this occasion 1 will discuss a number of matters which 1 believe deserve to be considered. I am not surprised - I have become inured to it - that whenever 1 am about to speak, or am on any list to speak, the Prime Minister always finds that some other call takes him from the chamber. Were he here. I would be able to make some personal references because he chose to forget my Christian name today. I can understand any relationship to anything Christian he might find discomforting having regard to the degree to which he has so often in the past been able to secure his inspiration from non- religious sources.... One thing that strikes me about this government, however, is the abiding affection that is shown to Caslro and to Cuba. Whatever offence is committed in that country is covered up. concealed, approved or at least connived. These are things that arc difficult lo understand. Canada docs not wain to be "Castronatcd". Canada docs not support any nation or national leader whose objective is civil war and launching it in other parts of the world. Castro has gone all over Africa launching civil wars. Castro has American republics deeply concerned over what he has been doing to undermine their governments in favour of communist governments or far left institutions. In Great Britain, in the United States, in France and in West Germany I have spoken to the leaders of those countries. They cannot understand the close and abiding relationship that prevails between the Prime Minister of Canada and Castro. An international brigand ■ that is what he is - who has his forces destroy freedom in African countries, is endeavouring to undermine democratic governments in Central and South America. Yet he is Canada's pet. It is beyond my understanding. Mr. Speaker, I repeat and underline that Castro is engaged in exporting revolution to Africa and inciting revolution in the Americas. People cannot understand why the government of Canada kowtows to Castro. The Prime Minister went to Cuba on till official visit. He said. "Castro, you wonderful fellow", while at Ihe same time Castro had 10.000 or 12.000 Iroops in Africa undermining legitimate governments and spreading revolution. Today. If you speak to leading Americans both in and out of the administration, the first thing they will say is. "Why is Canada so close to Castro? Do you not know what he is doing?" I will say no more about Castro except Ihis: the fact that Canada's Prime Minister has placed Canada's arms around Castro is causing a deep sense of suspicion against Canada and its objectives all over the western world. I pass on lo another example, France. France owes much to Canada. Its survival in two world wars is in very considerable measure due to the sacrifice of other countries and the soliders of other countries. The treatment given to the government of Canada by 'the present administration of France- is as unjustified as it is reprehensible. The French government encourages separation of Quebec from Canada. Why has that been Canada's attitude? Why docs Canada permit, without strong disapprobation and public disapprobation, the fact that the government of France and the administration in that country docs everything they can in a subterranean and some- limes very open way to bring about the separation of Quebec from Ihe dominion of Canada. What treatment has Canada received? Does this government fall in line with the present administration of France? The Hon. Gerard Pellcticr was appointed Canadian Ambassador to France. Normally, within a matter of a few days, an Ambassador presents his letters of accreditation. What happened to him? He w-as in Paris for days and days. He wandered around the city of Paris and sometimes went out in the country. Since the minister made an observation a moment ago that I could not hear. 1 ask him whether he approves of the treatment given by France. Three weeks went by. almost four, and finally the government of France, the administration, accepted Pel- letier with his letters of accreditation. What happened to the Prime Minister of Canada? He went to Paris following the celebrations in London. He was invited to lunch with the President of France. That is a normal thing. How long did he have to wait? He was invited for lunch on a certain day. The President of France found he could not accommodate him that day and the date was postponed. That was an insult to Canada. 1 do nol agree with the Prime Minister very often, but I found il difficult lo understand the humility with which he was prepared to accept that insult, and yet the degree to which his sensibilities are aroused' in the House of Commons if anyone in the opposition says anything even remotely critical of him. Then Premier Lcvesque arrived and was met with pomp and circumstance. While Canada's practice for years has been that no foreign decoration be received by Canadians without the consent of the Canadian government, the President of France took Lcvesque in his arms and announced that he had been awarded the prestigious senior decoration, the Legion of Honour No. I. He did not get the consent of the Canadian government. What did the Canadian government do? Instead of taking objection the Prime Minister tried to laugh it off. From now on the rules respecting awards to Canadians by foreign governments will not require the consent of the Canadian government. Canadian after Canadian has had honours turned down from foreign countries. Surely France has not forgotten the tens of thousands of Canadians who gave their lives in two world wars. What happened in this ease was an insult to Canada, regardless to whom it occurs, and 1 will always take strong objection to it. The Prime Minister in effect, said there was nothing Canada could do. Levcsquc did not wait for any consent: he started to wear it even before he got it.... I turn now to another matter. What has the government done on behalf of the millions and millions of people who love freedom as you and I. Mr. Speaker, love it? I speak of the Ukrainian people, the Baltic peoples and other peoples of smaller population than those two? Has it ever protested the treatment being handed out o the Ukrainians and to the others in the United Nations? Never a word has been spoken since 1960. Why is that? Is that the way to establish world leadership ■ to be afraid to speak out? Somebody suggests the government will speak out just before elections. Well, the government has an awful lot of speaking to do if it thinks it is going to survive. Canada has not spoken out since September, I960, when on behalf of the nation, with Khrushchev present, 1 protested strongly against denial of freedom in the Ukraine. And do not tell me that protests arc ineffective. The Kremlin does react to international criticism. I call as my witness in that behalf Cardinal Slipyj, who for many years, I think 17, was a prisoner, often in solitary confinement, in labour camps in Siberia. He was in Canada three years ago and was asked about the protest that was made by the former Prime Minister of Canada, John Dicfcn- bakcr. He said, "I have been in solitary confinement for more than 19 months, and other who loved freedom as I do arc in the same position." Suddenly, one day in late September, I960, wc found that an amelioration took place. The U.S.S.R. docs react to criticism. Il did in that case." ALDERGROVE — The Christian Science Monitor may soon take its place beside the Province and the Vancouver Sun as an educational aid in local classrooms. The Langley school board voted unanimously to view a presentation by the Monitor's circulation department after district superintendent Len Sampson personally recommended the daily tabloid for school use. Founded by the Christian Science Society, a religious organization, the Monitor is widely respected for its commentary on contemporary issues and world affairs. "There's a lot of relevance for students to study the information that's contained in newspapers," Sampson told the board. "I'm impressed with the calibre and quality of this particular paper." Sampson admitted the paper's name suggests a religious publication. Only one column in each daily edition is devoted to Christian Science, while the remainder of the paper is divided into traditional news, sports, and entertainment sections. The board will examine its current policy before viewing the Monitor's presentation at its next regular meeting. Trustee David Bell said the introduction of the Monitor could 'open the floodgates' for other religions to put their publications in Langley schools. and reside in Abbotsford. Introduced by director of church relations Dwight Johnson, Snider gave an eloquent address to representatives of sixteen churches and assemblies, at the meeting held last Wednesday morning at Trinity Western College, under the auspices of the Langley and district ministerial association. "An institute of aviation has been developed with the counsel A meeting will be held at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, February 8, at Dr. Neil Snider optimum enrollment of 1,200 students to be involved in a four-year degree granting program, according to cotlcge president Dr. Neil Snider. He also gave high praise to the new administrative officer, Dr. Craig Scaton, who will be directing the development of a four- year academic program to be launched in 1978 at the college. Scaton hold a B.A. degree in psychology, M.A. degrees in sociology and in educational psychology, and a Ph. D. in higher education and educational psychology from the University of Southern California. The Seatons have two children School district 34 pushes for continuation of phonics reading ABBOTSFORD — School district 34's highly successful phonetically-based basal reading series may receive a set-back in light of a recent revision in the ministry of education's prescribed program for reading and language arts. "We've invested heavily into the phonetic reading series, and now Victoria says it will not provide any more material," said chairman Brian Hambley at the school board meeting on Thursday evening. The board has asked district superintendent Fred Middleton to draft a letter of concern to the ministry, requesting access to at least one set of phonetic reading material for the district. Roy McLoughlin, supervisor of intermediate instruction and special services, and Gwen Fulwiler, supervisor of primary instruction, attended a recent education committee meeting to discuss the matter. Fulwiler expressed her con cern at the meeting that the revised program set out by the ministry may not be sufficiently; phonetically-based. A resolution to be sent to the ministry's superintendent of public instruction was drafted at that time. The resolution notes research indicates that reading programs using only incidental phonics instruction arc an inefficient method of teaching reading, and the success of a totally phonetically-based program in district 34 has been impressive. The resolution reads: "that a totally phonetically-based basal reading series should be included in any revised prescribed reading and language arts program in the elementary schools of B.C." and "that a board of school trustees continue to be authorized to approve such a phonetically- based basal reading series for elementary schools."

By REV. K.NEILL FOSTER An eighty-foot baleen whale has been discovered in a diatom- accous earth quarry in Lompae, California. The whale is standing on its tail. Mr. Whale's unusual stance — and similar situations — are giving evolutionists nightmares of late. Their belief in uniformitarian- ism states that earth strata were formed over hundreds of millions of years by the same processes at work today: wind, rain and storms. It is very obvious that uniformitarianism does not happen quickly enough to capture Mr. Whale in his awkward position. One of the predictions of the creation model is catastrophism. It holds that one or more great catastrophies like Noah's Flood are responsible for strata formation. Mr. Whale's posture suggests unusual and rapid catastrophic conditions. There are other discoveries that are blasting uniformitarianism apart. The evolutionist theory states that it took from 500 to 600 Dean Craig E. Seaton and co-operation of Missionary Aviation Fellowship and the Jungle Aviation and Radio Service," he said. ' Following a tour of the college campus conducted by Stanley Nelson, the church leaders stayed for lunch in the cafeteria. Mun Hope thanked the college for the hospitality. Dog control- districts are happy MURRAYVILLE - Langley district is satisfied. And so are Matsqui and Abbotsford. But Langley city, according to councilmen here, is as always the odd one out. The city is not satisfied with the current method of dog control in the area. According to district councilmen. Said protection committee chairman, Aid. Jock Lindsay, Monday morning, "It is probably because they have a larger population and more dogs running around or something..." Council received an application from Roy Anderson, of 1722 - 252 Street in Aldergrove, applying for the position of pound keeper in the district and asking for the opportunity to place a bid for the position when bids arc called for. Tom McMath. of 29233 Haver- man Road in Matsqui, is presently looking after the duties for Matsqui, Abbotsford and the two Langleys on a contract basis.

Each stratum, supposedly, took many millions of years. In Nova Scotia and Tennessee polystraight trees that extend through two or more geological layers have been uncovered. If the evolutionist geological time scale is correct these trees stood for 275 million years while strata formed around them. To complicate matters, trees have been found with their roots pointed upward. Catastrophism appears a logical, reasonable explanation. To date, evoluionists have no answer for Mr. Whale standing on his tail or for the polystraight trees. Some evolutionists have admitted that their theory has real problems, but most take the ostrich approach and pretend the evidence does not exist. Never do evolutionists include such devastating information in public school text books. Why? We can only surmise that they do not wish to shatter the pupils' faith in the theory of evolution.

An Holistic Approach to Living Day after day we find ourselves in a myriad of situations, which we often trudge through, half-asleep, missing the richness and uniqueness of each experience. In every circumstance we meet there is room for some artistry from us. As we begin to know this artistry our seemingly mundane existence is transformed. The world is in desperate need of individuals willing to allow this transformation to occur in their own lives and to lead the way for others by the example of their own living. You are invited to a series of six classes In which we will touch and explore the vast potential of this Holistic approach to living.

Within this group, myocardial infarction, or heart attack, is the commonest cause of death. Considerable progress has been made in the last decade or so in saving the lives of heart attack victims. Among the more significant advances has been the development of coronary care units. A coronary care unit or CCU is more than a designated area in a hospital where people are nursed during the acute phase of a coronary thrombosis or heart attack. It is a melding of sophisticated electronic equipment, highly skilled physicians and specially trained nurses. The unit is designed for the treatment of only one disease, coronary thrombosis, and the complications of this illness. About one-third to one-half of all heart atack victims die before they reach hospital. A few years ago, 25 to 35 per cent of the patients that did make it to hospital did not survive. With the advent of CCU's (and advances in treatment), the latter figure has been reduced by 30 to 50 per cent. Statistics vary from place to place. Deaths from heart attacks are usually due to the development of an abnormal rhythm of the heartbeat, or to failure of the heart to pump. Both of these complications are often treatable providing their onset is noticed in time. The basic concept behind the development df CCU's is the close monitoring of patients. The majority of this 'patient watching' is done electronically utilizing a continuous electrocardiogram on a TV screen. Any variation in the heart's rhythm or a change in its rate beyond preset limits rings an alarm, and in addition, starts a recorder that traces the abnormal cardiogram on paper. The nursing and medical staff is therefore instantly aware that the patient may be in trouble. Prompt treatment, which may range from drugs to the use of an electric shock to the chest wall or the insertion of a heart pacemaker, is often lifesaving. In smaller hospitals the CCU may be part of the intensive care unit, where all critical illness is treated. It is not the area that is important, but the sophisticated equipment and staff who know how to use it. Send your medical questions to Dr. Bob Young c/o The Star, Box 220, Aldergrove, B.C. FROM THE KITCHENS OF MCCAIN Our favourite fowl Chicken is a favorite menu item around the world. Spanish Chicken, Coq au vin, Chicken Kiev, Chicken Curry and a host of other national specialities testify to this bird's worldwide acceptance.

The only reason that I have not been partial to trying this method is because ordinary black plastic does not rot and very easily splits. You cannot walk on the stuff without it tearing into ugly bits. However, this year I shall try a new product called "No Weed" photodcgradable plastic garden mulch. This is a specially formulated plastic type, particularly designed for garden use. Its extremely important and valuable feature is that it will eventually rot, leaving no harmful or undesirable residues in the soil and none of this tiresome cleaning up of bits and pieces at the end of the season. It is of gray-aluminum color and incorporates special darkening pigments for more weed control. It also incorporates reflective aluminum flakes to modify the heat effect in the soil during the hot summer months. This comparatively new product, which should be available in good garden shops, has a variety' of functions. It increases early- season soil temperature and conserves soil moisture. It suppresses weeds and reduces leaching out of fertilizers. It reduces water requirements and increases growth and yields. Lastly, it reduces frost risk and prevents wind and water erosion. Crops which arc said to respond very well grown through slits in this new plastic arc tomatoes, melons, cucumbers, peppers, corn, broccoli, cauli- llower. lettuce and strawberries. Il is not recommended fdr peas. Use of this product will eliminate the necessity for hoeing and secondary cultivation and keeps the soil from becoming compacted. "No Weed" comes in a roll- dispensing box and provides coverage of 417 square feet by 30 inch wide strips. There are numerous methods of use and directions and suggestions arc supplied. Il all sounds quite interesting and the fact that it will rot in about 75 days by slow degrees makes it well worthy of trial. If there is any difficulty in obtaining it, you can get it from Dominion Seed House, Georgetown, Ontario for S6.98 plus 65 cents postage. Ask for their seed i catalogue at the same time. Bees are very desirable jp the garden for pollination purposes. Although they take pollen from very nearly every flower, there are some flowers which do not go well in honey. In fact, some of them arc slightly poisonous, including the privet flower. Specially prized honey comes from the heathers and clover and if you have bees, do grow something that they dearly like and that will produce fine honey. Among the better flowers to grow for the bees are alyssum, candytuft, larkspur, mignonette, mon- arda. scabiosa, snapdragon and sweet pea. Market report GARDENING IN THE\ALLEY Don Anson Monarda, or sweet brcgamot also has another property. Rub the aromatic leaves into a ball, spit on them, and apply to any insect bite or sting. This is really effective. I find that monarda, iris, canterbury bell and wisteria keep my garden buzzing with hummingbirds. They also like the columbines. If the recent snows have damaged any of your shrubs or young trees, cut off any broken ' branches cleanly as soon as possible. Open wounds, encourage disease quickly. This is the time of the year when greatest damage is done to evergreen shrubs and bushes. These plants transpire water through their leaves and cannot replace it because the soil is frozen. If we have a long spell of frozen soil and no mulch has been given to the plant, this will lead to browning of the leaves or needles later on in the year. Mulches DESIGN TODAY applied in late fall will stop the soil from becoming frozen and make available sufficient moisture. 1 am frequently asked what I am going to write about next week.

Our leader, Mrs. Clara Hep- ting, is working extremely hard, filling the calendar with many and varied activities, with all members giving her their enthusiastic support to make this a successful first year. ground, she's been' around textiles and tapestries all her life. Linda also studies at Simon Fraser University and the Vancouver School of Art, and has taught at workshops and weaving classes around the lower mainland. Five years ago, she launched her own teaching studio, West Coast Fibre Arts in North Vancouver, where she still teaches students ranging from beginners to specialists. Because she works in a large measure with each student individually, Linda says that the course she's launching at Fraser Valley College this semester will also be able to accommodate students from beginners to experienced Weavers. In the course, held at the Abbotsford campus every Wednesday from 1 to 5 p.m., she'll (each spinning, dyeing,, and weaving off-loom and on table ad floor looms. In addition to teaching weaving, Linda has had several tapestries commissioned for major building decorations in and around Vancouver.

Ii is only one symptom, but nol necessarily the first or the most important. Other symptoms often seen arc: vomiting, mental change, weakness or seizures, and disturbance of vision. When headache occurs, it can be anywhere in the head, and is "throbbing" or "bursting" in character. It is generally mos severe when it occurs on wakening from a night's sleep, and lends to lessen as the day progresses. Typically, it is made worse by straining, coughing or stooping. The other symptoms are equally important. The vomiting has no specific characteristics, although, like the headache, it lends to be worse in the mornings. Sometimes il occurs suddenly, without preceding nausea. The mental symptoms may be slight. The initial signs of poor memory, a lessening in intellectual ability and social adaptation later become progressive apathy — a disregard of what's going on about him. This, in turn, may lead lo stupor and even complete coma. Other common symptoms are seizures or weakness in the arm or leg. If witnessed accurately, this can give a clue to the location of the tumor. The CM.A. says, the speed with which these symptoms appear and get worse is often a guide to the seriousness of the tumor. Those producing rapid changes in symptoms tend to be malignant, whereas those producing slow changes tend to be begign. special texturing techniques possible on a table loom.

Aldergrove 856-4011 FORT LANGLEY - George Zukerman, world famous solo bassoonist appared in a joint recital with outstanding guitarist Robert Jordan in Langley last Saturday af Trinity Western College. The concert was part of the Community Musician's Program for Langley, Hope and Agassiz. Both artists were accompanied by pianist Leslie Jones, resident musician. Jones accompanies Zukerman regularly when on tour throughout B.C. Zukerman is probably the only solo bassoonist performing the international concert circuit. His itinerary has included frequent appearances in the Soviet Union, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Israel, Norway, West Germany, Australia, England and New Zealand. He has received enthusiastic press reviews in the major music centres such as London, New York, Munich, Moscow, Amsterdam, Lisbon, Tel Aviv. He has also performed in such exotic locations as Kabul, Afghanistan; Noumea, New Caledonia; Suva, Fiji; Sitka, Alaska; and Papeete, Tahiti. He has recorded all of the major bassoon literature on VOX labels including major concertos of Mozart, Weber, Boismortier, Graun, J.C. Bach, Hummel, Stamitz, and Corrette. Zukerman is a unique figure on the musical scene. As a musician, he has elevated the bassoon from what he refers to as "my symphonic piece of plumbing" and "the clown of the orchestra" to an instrument with the prestigious place it now deserves. He has been described as "the Paganini of the bassoon" and "the Casals of the bassoon" and he hopes soon to be referred to as the Zukerman of the bassoon.

Zukerman is also the founder and director of The Cassenti Players, a chamber ensemble which tours throughout the West. Jordan is one of the finest classical guitarists in the West. He is frequently on C.B.C. radio not only as a soloist but also in collaboration with other musicians. He is a former student of Eduardo Sainz de la Maza and has also worked with the renowned Julian Bream. Although he is currently teaching at the Vancouver Community Music School, he divides his time so that he can appear widely as a performer in recitals in Canada and the U.S. as well as in broadcast appearances such as 'Distinguished Artists' and 'Musicamera'. The concert presented by the two artists included a sparkling commentary on the music they play. 9fl LANGLEY — The arts council is in its seventeenth year of operation with the start of 1978.

THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1978 19 Spotlight on the arts By JULIE VALENTI Good time at "Swingers" dance The pleasing crowd attending the "Swingers" dance held Saturday night January 14th at Pinegrove Hall were aptly entertained by the good "Old Tyme Dance Music" of "The Prairie Schooners." Emm Cec George Armstrong welcomed the dancers from the surrounding area, among whom were Pete and Nonie Kroeker of Abbotsford, and Nonie's niece from Quebec, also Mr. and Mrs. Lehman of North Battleford, Sask., who are spending a few weeks in the area. During the break for refreshments, the draw for the door prize was won by Ellen Winters of Abbotsford. A very appreciative thanks was extended to the Emm Cec, the Orchestra and the ladies who served the lovely lunch. After the lunch break, dancing was again in full swing and the spot dance winners were Eva Dyck of Aldergrove and Wallie Cinnamon of Abbotsford. The Valley Golden Age Swingers and the orchestra 'The Prairie Schooners' hold their dances every second and fourth Saturday night of each month at the Pinegrove Hall, corner of Mt. Lehman Road and Fraser Hwy., 8 p.m. Their next dance will be held Saturday night January 28th. A welcome is extended to come and enjoy a sociable and entertaining evening of good old tyme dance music. There will be a door prize, spot dance prize, refreshments will be served. O.A.P.O dance to be held The next dance of the O.A.P.O. #71 will be held on Saturday, January 21st in the hall on 273rd St., starting at 8 p.m. It is to be hoped the weather will cooperate better for this occasion. The first meeting of the membership in the hall for 1978 was held on Friday afternoon having been postponed from the previous Friday,.because of the snow and ice situation. A large turnout was on hand and with good humor kept the very inexperienced chairman on the straight and narrow path of proper proceedures. Without their help and guidance he would probably have completely floundered. The entertainment and the kitchen committees will remain to do services that arc vitally important to the organization. Many thanks indeed are due to these members for the work they put in.

LANGLEY CITY - Plans for a huge aquatic centre in Murrayvillc have faded, but Langley city is unabashed. City council is still determined to build a covered pool somewhere in their area. Council endorsed a recommen- dalioii here Monday to ask the Doing a good job, fellows MURRAYVILLE - You can tell them volunteers all you want, administrator Tom Rainey told council this week. The fact remains that they are paid an hourly renumeration according to ihe amount of time they put in. Councilmen were discussing the structure of pay allotted to volunteer firemen in Langley municipality. They agreed that the remuneration had started out as a measure to compensate the volunteers for whenever a suit of clothes got torn in the course of action and to pay for their personal car expenses and in some case time lost. From there "il grew", according to protection committee chairman. Aid. Jock Lindsay. Recently council legislated a uniform pay scale for volunteers al any of the municipality's fire zones, because "a $200 suit is worth the same whether it is torn at Fort Langley. Brookswood or Aldergrove." In reality the firefighters are paid an hourly rate for active duty as well as practise sessions. Councilors, however, agreed that the system is "the best possible", and that the firemen - be they volunteers or not - arc doing a good job. province to share in the cost of constructing a pool for the city. The provincial government will be asked to pay one third of the total bill which is expected to reach SI million. Additional funding will also be sought through the recreation facility assistance program, for an extension to the Centennial Library and for a new performing arts theatre connected with the Langley Arts Council. Financial aid for various other recreational facilities is also being sought. Youth injured in motor mishap MURRAYVILLE - An 18 year old Surrey youth was taken to b Columbian hospital in New Westminster Sunday after receiving head injuries in vehicle crash. Dwayne Edward Flynn of Surrey was a passenger in a car driven by David Lemman of 12677 91st Avenue in Surrey. Flynn experienced his injury after the Lemman car eolided with another vehicle at 248th Street and Fraser Highway in Aldergrove. The second vehicle was driven by Donna Jane Stottlar of 34126 Hazel in Abbotsford. Flynn is said to be in good condition and on the road to recovery following the incident which took place at about 12:00 a.m. No charges have been laid and RCMP here arc continuing their investigation. NEW WESTMINSTER — City council here has agreed to join Vancouver and Burnaby in a joint engineering study of rapid transit for the urban area. Council members, however, said that although they agree with rapid transit and agree that the study must get underway, they do not like all of the points agreed on by the mayor's of the three areas. Aldermen in New Westminster AAadsen trial moved to Vancouver NEW WESTMINSTER - A Supreme Court judge here approved a change of venue for Walter Murray Madsen Tuesday. Gerry Young, lawyer for the defendant who is charged with four counts of first degree murder, sought the change of trial location to avoid any possibility of a prejudicial jury. Madsen is charged in connection with the murder of four Abbotsford area youths near the Roscdale Bridge east of Chilliwack. The murders took place last July and one of the four bodies was never recovered. Young sought a change of venure for his client on the grounds that a jury in New Westminster could include jurors from the Chilliwack area. The lawyer said he doesn't think Chilliwack people are prejudiced, but wishes to avoid any possiblity of emotionally involved jurors. felt the provincial government had wiggled off the hook where funding was concerned, and the three way study tended to alienate the senior government further. Mayor Bob Duckworth of Langley City said last week, that Langley cannot expect any rapid transit connection until after Greater Vancouver, Surrey and Coquitlam have a light rail system. Editor quits over boy's virginity LOS, ANGELES — Dan Wakefield, the creator and story editor of a popular U.S. tv series, has quit his job with 20th Century Fox film studios over a script change. Wakefield created the series, James at 15, in which the title character loses his virginity to a Swedish exchange student on his sixteenth birthday. The clash over the script changes came when Wakefield tried to make references to birth control in the script. NBC tv, who are buying the series wanted no such thing on their airwaves. Wakefield said he would not write the script unless pregnancy was shown as a consequence of sexual relations. NBC at first objected to the character having sex at all, but later relented, provided "he suffers and is punished for it." NBC plans to air the show on February 9, but the title will be changed to James at 16 instead of 15. Overcrowding puts pressures on Margaret Stenerson school ABBOTSFORD — Overcrowding at Margaret Stenerson elementary school in Abbotsford is rapidly nearing the crisis point. In Its report to district 34 school board last Thursday the education committee told the board that twenty new pupils had been enrolled at the school since January 3, and this had brought enrollment figures to the near- maximum point. Board chairman Brian Hambley noted that although there was some space in grades one, six and seven, grades two to five were full. Maximum class sizes are determined by the district school board. "We're in trouble," said Hambley. "Margaret Stenerson is almost at the crisis point". Reluctant to make boundary changes in mid-term, the board is now considering two alternatives: transering new pupils to nearby Philip Sheffield or Abbotsford elementary schools, or making use of portables at Margaret Stenerson. Hambley reported that Philip Sheffield elementary has room for an additional three or four pupils in every grade, and Abbotsford elementary could accommodate more children as well. District superintendent Fred Middleton told the board that several portables presently parked at North Poplar elementary school are no longer being used, as the overload of children at the school has returned to Ten- Broeek elementary upon completion of construction there. Middleton will look into the matter, and report to the next education committee meeting. Beware of thin ice With the cold weather we've been experiencing this winter, most water holes and ponds are frozen over with a thin layer of ice. A number of Langley RCMP members have noticed children skating on this dangerously thin ice and we would accordingly like to caution parents and for that matter, anyone, that ice should be a minimum of 3 inches in. thickness to safely support skaters. Now, it would take quite a long, cold spell to produce 2-3 inches of ice on the surface of a. pool or pond, but remember, any' less and your safety would be greatly jeopardized.

Such techniques as batiking, weaving, spinning, natural dying, printing (both silk screen & lino designs), ceramics and macramc arc the foundations of this course. Along with these artistic modes, the music department has its own creative talents. Under the direction of Mr. Ayers. the music courses being offered this year consist of junior band, senior band, stage band, and guitar. Junior band is a subject offered all year for first year music students having little or no experience with instruments. Senior band now at a total of 51 students consists of the more advanced second and third year music students. From this talented group, the stage band of 16 students if formed. This orchc- strational crew of strings, brass and percussion play predomin- antely modern selections. And to add to the swinging rhythm of the stage band, the beginners guitar group are "picking" their way, hopefully, to fame and fortune. This class of mostly grade 8's learn the basic techniques in C, G. and F chording as well as facts on Ihe world of timing and, harmony. These keen young people are definitely on their way to becoming the schools first Roy Clarkcs. Although Clearbrook already offers a variety of music courses, more arc anticipated for the future — one of these being a choral group. Last, but never least, drama has been a part of the school activities for many years. The only class being taught this semester by Ms. Saenger from the English department is drama 8. drama 9 being taught in the next semester. This subject con sists of basic dramatical techniques where it is hoped that students will learn. to be less inhibited when confronted with an audience. Small individual and pair productions as well as pantomime and spontaneous talks are of major concern here. Creativity in the arts, drama, and music fields are not the only signs of student performance in the school. Crcativcness is also occuring in the home cc. labs as well as the French department. The entire sewing population, instructed by Mrs. Patrick, and consisting of 55 grade 8 girls are / busily preparing for their grand debut. Garments that have been pinned, basted, and sewn with care will now be modeled by the artists themselves. With the help of outside models, a fashion coordinator and a cosmetician, the girls will be pivoting their way. perhaps nervously, across the stage. Although the fashion show will be the major part of the program, the French dept. will be performing a skit done completely In French vocabulary. It is hoped that the actions of these young performers will help to explain the meaning of their phrases. Performances from the other talented areas of school will concur. Orchestral pieces by the stage band and a miniature production from the drama department, as well as unique displays from those in the arts should help make the evening interesting and exciting. A lot of hard work and student dedication has gone into the creative arts night to make it a success. And on behalf of these students and staff a special invitation is extended to parents, friends and any other interested persons to attend this evening.
