•ri^-^^iitlt&mmm) \ COUNCILORS WORRIED Tax revolt brewing are By IAN CAMERON MURRAYVILLE - Taxes going up. Again. So what else is new? But local politicians here are worried ... plenty. And they hate getting those late and abusive phone calls at home. "It's not our fault," they say.. But then, whose fault is it? Well, last week the local board of school trustees reported -- perhaps rather cavalier-like -- that property taxes this year are expected to go up by more than 34 percent. A direct cause of the 1989 schools budget of $81- million. (An increase over last year of $22-million). "We are not to blame," says Aid. Aubrey Searle. "We have been very scrupulous in keeping our budget expenses down and our tax indrease (for general purposes) at about seven percent." Aid. John Scholtens is equally upset. "I hate getting those phone calls," he says. "Now, (municipal government) responsible for only 35 percent of total property taxation." Scholtens suggests local governments petition the senior government in Victoria to let them off the hook by letting school boards issue the tax notices in future, and then "we will ride on them." Traditionally, municipalites have been the taxing authority, including school taxes based on local education budgets. Now, the schools are consuming 65 percent of every tax dollar collected. It is getting to the point where pensioners and other people on fixed income cannot any longer afford to live in their homes, say Searle and Aid. Steve Ferguson. "We have just had a (recreational) money referendum go down to defeat," says Ferguson. "There is a clear message there, somewhere." Councilors are bracing themselves for more nasty telephone calls after property owners soon receive their 1989 tax notices. In dollars and cents, the tax increases could translate into $400 or $500 on an average house.

Call 856-8303 or 856-5212 BOARD FIRES A FEW SHOTS, TOO Teachers, parents blast district By RAE FURCELL LANGLEY - The Milner Education Center, location for the regular meetings of the Langley School Board, was once more inundated with an estimated two to three hundred striking teachers and approximately 100 members of the public. Television crews from CBC, CTV, CKVU, and the local press were on hand to record the meeting which threatened to erupt into a shouting match on several occasions as vocal teachers sparred with parents amid cries of, "We want a contract," and, "Why not here?" The Board turned down a request from the Langley Parents for French to have the district supply school shuttle buses for students presently enrolled at L'ecole Lochiel and Belmont Elementary. Present Board policy supports alternate programs -- 2,500 of the 16,000 students in the district attend alternate classes - but requires that transportation remain a parental responsibility. Chairman Grinnell stated that existing resources do not provide for the service but that negotiations with the Ministry of Education are ongoing and parents will be informed if the Board meets with any success in that area. The Board and district maintenance departments are exploring the possibility that the present parking facilities at the L'ecole Lochiel could be improved. Of the five delegations that were slated to make representations to Too much: Searle MURRAYVILLE - Canadian society as a whole is "pushing the cost of homes out of the reach of the average Canadian family," says township Aid. Aubrey Searle. "We will have to do something about it," Searle told fellow councilors here Monday night. Searle did not say what he had in mind. the Board, only three were able to make their way through the throng to the speaker's table. Donna Larocque, president of the Cupe 1260 and representing Cupe local 1851, spoke on behalf onf their employees who, as well as students, are caught in the middle of the current labour dispute. She stated that "The liaison that we have with the teachers is very good, in fact, never better, as they are beginning to understand just what it means to be members of a union." She stressed that their liason with the Board was also very good as the Board has been supportive of their needs. She stated that since the teachers have chosen to go on full-scale strike, their union is now affected, as their members are expected to honour all union picket lines. She urged both sides to continue to negotiate, "round the clock, if need be until a settlement is reached." She closed her address with the statement that "Our teachers deserve the same contract that has been negotiated in any other district. Why not here?" Charlie Ness of the parent group "PAL" introduced a speaker on his behalf who delivered a terse, abrupt statement questioning the Board's accomplishments to date and their goals for education in this district. She posed four questions to the Board: "What are we teaching our students about resolving conflicts within our own community?" "What role models are the elected officials providing for our students? How do our students perceive the misinformation, the anger, the frustration and the laborious negotiations which are currently taking place in this district? Is this the legacy that we wish to leave with our students?" She concluded with "It is a struggle tto comprehend this Board's inability to conclude an agreement after twelve months of negotiations." Ness, speaking further on behalf of Parents in Action in Langley (PAL), informed the gathering that his group had delivered a note to both tthe LTA and the School Board on Saturday stating "This is a copy of it. We are not sure if the School Board understood it!" He held aloft a placard calling on both the School Board and the LTA to remain at the mediation table unti a win-win settlement is achieved. "Education is everybody's business and we want our children, our teachers and our administrators in the schools every day for the good of the majority of pupils, teachers and parents. We want it settled now, it's gone on too long." Another PAL delegate took the floor to express "her gut feelings". She accused the Board of arrogance and bringing religion into the Board meetings. Peter Owens, president of the LTA, stated that teachers in Fort Nelson had worked out their agreement with their Board between April and June of 1988 without sixty-six other elements to look at while Langley had setttled only three items on the bargaining table in that same time span. He went on to say thatt last week, the Board and teachers in Fort Nelson opened negotiations on their second contract under the new legislation. He maintained that "all of the agreements in the lower mainland have been achieved without any disruption of services, many without even taking a strike vote." He told the audience that "We just spent the last four days in mediation - after eleven months of negotiating. Only five of twenty-six items were agreed to. The Board still expects teachers in Langley to accept less than teachers have in the surrounding districts and even less than we have in contract now." He referred to an LTA request Please see page 17 m^K^^^^^^m ffi&sSmWMmmm j— ^^^m ____________w______________s mm ^£$iillllliilP™™ W* .!'-■ WbBI^ Ifcjl P u :" 4 *_f- ___ _\ P^t^SI I Mmmxmw Hi '/ llliliilllli |||P; i 1L 4 im Jk w J BPwPS^B "^$&m\\ SxAAi'xAmMAAAA^mAAAAi WMWjmjm 1.W ' ' mihuti. mS__\ m\w?j ^s^s^s^H 1 Sul ?

FOR COTTAGE INDUSTRIES Sensitivity suggested MURRAYVILLE - Councilors must be "sensitive" when they consider drafting a new home occupations bylaw, says Aid. John Scholtens. He agreed with Aid. Muriel Arnason this week that it was not realistic to come down too hard on people who run cottage industries from their home ... especially if it is in a rural area of larger acreages. Councilors will debate the issue at a special planning meeting on Monday, April 3. Township will also have to relax restrictions on daycare centres and preschools, Scholtens said. Aldermen agreed that these facilities are badly needed, yet perhaps local rules are too strict. The operation of daycare centres and preschools is also governed by a different set of rules laid down by the provincial government. Langley does not allow more than seven children in one facility, regardless of other considerations. Scholtens suggested that if his wife should decide to look after a neighbor's kid, this limit would already have been reached. The Scholtens have six children of their own. The provincial heilth and welfare department determines the maximum number of children in a daycare centre by a formula that takes into consideration the square footage of the building, the number of bathrooms, and the number of supervisors. Operators also have to be trained and licensed by the province. 1 Clas LEGISLATIVE LIBRARY P a r i i a m e n t B u i. 1. d i n g s Victoria, BC V8V 1X4 loo k'o, 01-9U THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 Doctors prepare for battle Eight teachers and a social worker from School District 406, near Seattle, visited Shortreed Elementary last week to see the "Skills for Growing" guidance program at work. Shortreed vice-principal Bruce Ivany [left] and principal Brian Thomasson [fifth from left] said their school is one of a handful on the continent to pilot the program. It has proven a success in many respects at Shortreed as it develops self-esteem, good citi zenship and respect for others, among the primary grade students. It was developed by an American, Rick Liddle, and is supported by Qwest, Lions Club International and the National Association of Elementary Principals. The teachers and principals of Tukwila and Thorndyke Elementary schools are looking forward to implementing it themselves this fall. They were all enthusiastic about what they saw in the program at Shortreed. Said Tukwila principal, Dick Fain [right], "There are many social problems such as drugs and so on which we try to address, and this program puts all the components together in one well-thought-out package." The program will also be expanded to be included in the curriculum for all Langley district primary students. It is already incorporated into the intermediate and senior grade levels. VICTORIA - The gloves came off last week in contract talks between British Columbia's 6,000 doctors and the provincial government. Health Minister Peter Dueck accused the British Columbia Medical Association of using "inflammatory language" and threats to try to win contract demands. Dueck took aim at the doctors after he released a confidential letter indicating doctors are prepared for a bitter battle. "Personally, I feel let down," said Dueck. The letter was sent by the B.C. Medical Association to about 50 doctors who routinely lobby provincial politicians. It urged the doctors to warn the government that doctors are willing "to launch a public campaign in which the credibility of the government will be badly Summer schedule set for council MURRAYVILLE - Schedule for summer 1989 meetings of municipal council has now been set. During July and August this year, council will meet on every second Monday. Meetings will be held at 7 o'clock on July 10, 24 and 31, and August 14 and 28. damaged." Doctors are angry no decision has yet been reached on fee increases or the master agreement that sets standards and regulations for health care. The current agreements expire March 31. In the letter doctors were told to warn the government the B.C. Medical Association is willing to call geographic strikes, begin billing patients directly and launch a media blitz to win its demands. "Reinforce the fact that we do not want a war with the government but we are not prepared to be pushed around," the letter advised. Dr. David Blair, the association's president, said the public should not be alarmed by the strong wording because it is only action being considered. "This letter was to be sent to only 50 doctors with no intention of it becoming a public issue," Blair said. "We do know when we send things out to our membership, it's impossible to guarantee secrecy." Blair would not speculate on why the government chose to release the letter. "Who knows why someone chose to release it?" he said. "If it has alarmed the public at all I would suggest it's up to Mr. Dueck to answer to that." It's a license or tax exemption ALDERGROVE - If local Elks insist that they want a permanent liquor license for their new meeting hall, then they may lose their property tax-exempt status, says the township's mayor, John Beales. "Maybe that will make them reconsider," says Beales. Councilors say the Elks do a Can't afford to agree OTTAWA - Buried under all the ideological rhetoric in the Meech Lake debate lies one political fact: The two holdout premiers just can't afford to say yes right now. Gary Filmon of Manitoba and Frank McKenna of New Brunswick have little room to manoeuvre at home despite all the pressure likely brought to bear by Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and the seven other premiers at the table. The stickiest situation on the homefront belongs to Filmon, whose minority government is barely clinging to power with both opposition parties vehemently opposed to the Meech Lake accord. Not surprisingly, Filmon's critics believe the Quebec language controversy was the deal-breaker the Manitoba premier had been looking for when he withdrew his province's legislation to ratify Meech Lake last December. After all, former Manitoba Premier Sterling Lyon, like Filmon a Conservative, was a leading proponent of the so-called not-withstanding clause in the 1982 Constitution. VIOLATES CONSTITUTION clause Quebec ago because of public pressure, Filmon wasn't as concerned about minority rights as he apparently is now over the rights of anglophone Quebecers. Filmon knows that to change course yet again on Meech Lake could cost him his government. As a result, there was little chance for Monday's meeting to accomplish much more than an agreement to disagree. McKenna, despite having literally no opposition in the legislature, also had limited room in which to manoeuvre. Like Filmon, the New Brunswick leader inherited a signed agreement in principle from the man he turfed from office, former premier Richard Hatfield. LEVI ITS ROOM McKenna's promised hearings into Meech Lake ended less than two weeks ago and the premier must at least appear to take an interest in their results. As McKenna himself said after Monday's meeting: "I have no mandate. We listened to thousands of pages of briefs. It is going to take some time." Of the briefs that came in during a month of hearings in New Brunswick on Meech Lake, 103 were opposed and Just five were in favor. Now, with the ratification dead- lot of good in the community, but they still can't understand why they would want a full-time liquor license. The service club has suggested hours of operation to 1 a.m. six days a week and to 12 midnight on Sundays. The RCMP have voiced no objections. In the past, the Elks have obtained licenses for special occasions. NEED A LAWYER OR LEGAL INFORMATION?

WHILE QUANTITIES LAST Limit 3 pkgs. per customer ■_____________\i_ - GO FOR IT! Flack forecast for municipal priorities THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 Developer sees scarcity MURRAYVILLE - One local alderman is worried that councilors may "take a lot of heat" once the public finds out that municipal programs may get preference. Councilors accepted a recommendation Monday night that their own municipal applications for funding from the Growth Opportunities (GO B.C.) program be given first priority. After that, councilors would endorse other projects within Langley with the provincial government. Aldermen also decided to meet "as soon as possible" with Langley's two MLAs, Carol Gran and Dan Peterson, to try and determine government criteria for approval of the grants. "Clearly, we must discuss guidelines first of all," said Aid. Terry Thorne. Municipal administrator Jim Godfrey suggested that the criteria as laid down by the province were "very wide." And Aid. John Scholtens proposed that local government "rubber stamp all applications except Bennett to stand trial next month VANCOUVER - Former B.C. premier Bill Bennett and two other men will stand trial April 17 on insider trading charges, a provincial court judge has ordered. "My friends and I have agreed the matter should take 15 days -- three weeks - and we're suggesting the trial be set for April 17," said Crown counsel A.G. (Ace) Henderson, who met earlier with defence lawyers. Judge Keith Libby agreed to the date after polling the three defence lawyers who appeared briefly in the courtoom without their clients. Bennett, his brother Russell Bennett and Vancouver Island businessman Herb Doman - along with Bennett Equities Ltd. - were charged Jan. 27 with violating the insider trading section of the B.C. Securities Act. All three have told their lawyers they will plead not guilty. "It is a rather uncommon sort of case," said Henderson, noting insider trading charges are rarely laid in British Columbia. Zalm goes underground VICTORIA - There's a kind of bunker mentality about Premier Bill Vander Zalm of late. Or rather, Vander Zaun's new image emanates from The Bunker, the nickname for a dingy warren of offices behind the legislature that is inhabited by his advisers. Out of The Bunker comes the current plan for nursing Vander Zalm back to the top of popularity polls: tone down the premier's flamboyance and make him as bland and unquotable as, well, former premier Bill Bennett. It's a stratagem some say will never fly. "It's like trying to put a cork on Mount Vesuvius," says Mike Harcourt, leader of the oppostion New Democrats. "It's the impossible dream." those from the 'societies for the preservation of three-legged dogs'." In the past, councilors have refused to endorse all applications submitted by private groups. But now they are realizing that other B.C. municipalities don't have the same qualms and that maybe Langley is missing out on this doling out of money as a result. MURRAYVILLE - Prices on residential building lots in the lower mainland are "going too high, too quick," a land developer told township councilors here Monday night. Because of municipalities reluctance to release more land for residential use, Ralph Taylor said, "(home) builders are spending more time looking for avail able lots than they are on pounding nails." An alternately hot and cold real estate market is "not good," Taylor said. Lots are now $10,000 more expensive than they were just a few months ago, he said. Taylor is seeking Langley council's approval to develop a 34-lot residential subdivision in the Walnut Grove area of northwest Langley.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Another lesson in democracy Editor, The Star, Sir, In the past few weeks, through advertisements, we were treated to a short lesson in democracy by the Langley Teachers Association. They referred to Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary which states that democracy is the rule of the majority. I hope that the level of education in our school system goes deeper than to simply point to the dictionary and use its definition as an absolute. From the Encyclopaedia Britann- ica (the following is paraphrased) we find that the term democracy may be used in different senses. First, the right to make decisions is exercised directly by the people under a majority. Direct democracy. Second, the right to make decisions through representatives appointed by and responsible to the people. Representative democracy. Third, a form of government, usually a representative democracy, where the powers of the majority are exercised within a framework of constitutional restraints designed to guarantee the minority in the enjoyment of certain individual or collective rights such as freedom of speech and religion. Fourth, the word democratic is used to describe a system which attempts to minimize social and economic differences, particularly those of unequal distribution of property. Social or economic democracy. This last form of government does not have to be a democracy in any of the first three senses. Which form does the LTA subscribe to? The first? I hope not because if my five children decide to practice this form of democracy we won't be eating at home anymore and some fast food outlet will soon be taking my last dime. If the LTA does support this first form then presumably they also in accord with Quebec's language bill,, since after all, those who speak French are the majority in that province. If they support the second, then perhaps they should drop their demands since the School Baord has been duly elected by the majority in Langley and as such are expressing the desires of the people. I don't think I would be wrong in stating that the number of people who elected the School Board was greater than the number of people who elected the LTA. I won't even consider that the teachers subscribe to the fourth form of the term democracy since that borders on the side of socialism. This form of government I'm sure our teachers are above. This then leaves the third use of the term. I hope that the LTA will show some tolerance and conform to this third version of the term democracy, the one most Canadians adhere to, and allow those individuals who cannot align themselves to the unioin doctrine to continue their work. And work side by side with them as opposed to working against them. After all, if the belief is so strong that the union way is the best way, what fear can there be of a few who do not believe that to be the case. It was put to me by a negotiator from the LTA that the union could not discipline non-union teachers who did not abide by their code of ethics. I would say that it is commendable that there are teachers who are so confident in their own abilities and ethical principles that they are willing to forego the security the union has to offer them. Knowing, that by doing so they will be subjecting themselves to the constant scrutiny of their peers. Come on Langley teachers, show tolerance as was shown in Kaslo. If it can be done in Kaslo, in your own words, "Why not here". HENRY vanderMOLEN 4651 - 240 Street, Langley (4) --St HOW MANY TIMES MUST I TILL YOU.. IT'S SPEtT " OH " NOT *MO*... Who are the real villains? Editor, The Star, Sir, It is a wonderful service to our community when our papers allow citizens like Mr. Paul Dickerson and others to express their opinions regarding motorsport even if those opinions are exaggerated with no evidence or data to back their statements up. Then there are the nameless people who are allowed to travel through our community, to threaten, scare and bully the citizens and businesses of Matsqui, Aldergrove and Langley into believe their opposing point of view. Let's not forget our politicians Nurses need care Editor, The Star, Sir, British Columbia's nurses want your readers to know how much this year's contract negotiations mean for patients. For their sake as well as ours, B.C. must stop being a "have-not" province in terms of nursing. The facts are that B.C. has never educated enough nurses; we can no longer recruit effectively, and our working conditions give the nurses already here little reason to stay. All this hits especially hard in the middle of a chronic nursing shortage. Half of our hospital nurses report usually not having enough time to provide quality care, and Statistics Canada ranks B.C. next-to-last nationally for nursing hours per patient day. Last year, the B.C. Health Ministry's nursing manpower advisory committee said "it appears that at least 2,000 additional registered nurses are required to fulfill existing budgetary allotments". Clearly, it's long past time to renew nursing in B.C. The provincial government and our employers must finally put a realistic value on nurses' work. We want no more than that, and we will settle for no less - for ourselves, and for the British Columbians who deserve all the care nurses were educated to give. ANNABELLE DICK, RN. Bumaby who are elected to their positions of power in hopes that they will deal with the real issues, and not hide behind mountains of red tape, locked doors, or change the rules, to fit their own political purpose. No matter how many times motorsport people prove themselves, spend their money, and meet criteria deadlines, the government always seems to listen to a group of uninformed radical people. I wonder who are really the villains in this story? Through all of the frustration and lack of leadership from the provincial and municipal governments in dealing honestly with the issue, although the motorsport family has become more angry, we have also become stronger in our quest for a motorsport park. And to Mr. Veitch, Carol Gran and Mayor Kandal and Mr. Vander Zalm, motorsport is far from being a dead issue, it is only just beginning. For four and a half years and more than $250,000 dollars spent, motorsport people have been cheated, lied to as well as studied to death. No more! And to Mr. Dickerson, Yes, I have on my Labatt's hockey jacket and my race car is sponsored by a tavern. It proves, Mr. Dickerson, that I have nothing to hide, but maybe people who oppose motorsport do. And I ask all newspaper reports to cover both sides, but most of all get all the real facts. BILLFIETJE LMORA and director of BCAMF Chairman Matsqui Citizens for Motorsport. Point hammered home Editor, The Star, Sir, I found your recent comments regarding the setting and changing of agendas at meetings (Star, 23 Feb.) most interesting. As the president of a corporation, executive director of Langley's largest charitable foundation and current and past executive member for a number of societies and professional associations I have more than a passing interest in such matters. Until recently I was under the apparently mistaken impression that not even the Pope could change the agenda for a meeting after the start of the meetting. I must also admit my ignorance in assuming that only the members of an organization can vote on any motion put forth at a meeting of that organization. I was also interested in your comment regarding the Chamber of Commerce support for "a fair and independent hearing for its (the mtorsport complex) proponents." You stated "I find this totally reasonable and democratic for all, whether for or against". I personally, would find it more democratic and reasonable if there was a fair and independent hearing of both proponents and opponents. Democracy is freedom of choice by an informed electorate.

Bantams to provincials THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 ALDERGROVE - The local Bantam AA Rep team won the third and deciding game against Hastings and will represent the lower mainland at the provincial championships in Chetwynd during the spring break. Hastings opened the scoring with a power play goal in the first period and nursed this lead until Nate Remple from Jason Flint responded with a power play for Aldergrove early in the second period. The B.C. Cellular sponsored Bruins then took the lead on a goal by Brad Peters from Wade Good and Chris Charlton only to see Hastings tie Park will 'stand out' MURRAYVILLE - Some day, the Campbell Valley regional park in southwest Langley will "stand out in the rural landscape," township councilors here were told Monday night. Manager Richard Hankin of the GVRD parks board told councilors that more than $l-million will be spent on upgrading the park during the coming decade. And as the lower mainland becomes more and more urbanized, he said, the 1,300-acre wilderness park will eventually stand out as a remaining piece of the original landscape. Hankin also talked of future improvements to the Aldergrove Lake regional park near the U.S. Border. The regional district has bought adjacent properties inside Matsqui municipality, he said, and these will eventually be added to the south Aldergrove park. However, at the present time they are being mined for gravel under a 12-year time schedule. "Not the perfect solution," Hankin said, expressing worries that the land may eventually be deformed for park purposes. "But the best we can do." When the mining rights expire, the GVRD will add the lands to the other major original wilderness park in south Langley. "Committed to Cycling" the game in the opening minutes of the third period. Both teams had opportunities to put the game away but the goal tending at both ends was equal to the challenge. Mike Bennett, in the Bruins net, made 17 of his 35 saves in the third period alone. However, spurred on by a large delegation of Aldergrove supporters and with the score tied 2-2, Aldergrove scored the winner with 1:33 left in the game. On textbook pases from Good and Warren Borg, Peters was put in on a semi-breakaway and whistled a slap shot from the top of the circle to give the Bantams their second consecutive trip to the Provincials. The team is coached by Tom Flint and Joe Griff and players representing Aldergrove include goalies Mike Bennett and Jeff Blount; defencemen Chris Charlton, Nate Remple, Brian Lundstrom and Duncan Mcintosh; forwards Wade Good, Jamie Quiring, Ryan Briscoe, Brad Peters, Warren Borg, Alex Caldwell, Cory Burns, Jason Flint, Clint Jackson and Daryl Sutherland.

CLOVERDALE - A few years ago the suggestion that it would be possible to enjoy a day at the races at a location where there were no horses would have seemed inconceivable. But a change in the law coupled with new technologies have made this possible to a limited extent. Cloverdale Raceway has successfully introduced a concept called Inter Track Wagering to B.C. by sending itts video and audio signal via B.C. Tel microwave to Sandown Raceway on Vancouver Island. In conjunction with this, pari-mutuel machines are stationed at Sandown and tied into Cloverdale's system by B.C. Tel data lines so that purchasing and cashing tickets are the same as at the host track, Cloverdale. At the present time racetracks in Canada can only provide its races to other racetracks that are not operating but a legislative change is about to be introduced in Otttawa.

One of the tasks of the public relations committee is to involve and inform the community; let the public know what the Canada Summer Games could mean to Matsqui-Abbotsford. And, show each person (school age to senior) how they can get involved. One way to achieve this goal was to form a speaker's bureau - a selection of informed volunteers who will talk to organizations, clubs and groups throughout the community.

Cities such as Victoria, Nanaimo, Penticton, Kelowna, Vernon, Kamloops and Prince George would be likely sites. Provincial involvement would dictate the required amenities but it is expected that only first class facilities offering a complete dining experience would be considered. Jim Keeling Jr., General Manager of Cloverdale Raceway, believes that Tele-Theatres are something that the racing industry needs. "For years horse racing has been fighting an uphill battle aginst increased competition from a variety of fronts. At last racing will be able to take its product to the people like other professional sports have been doing for some time. Only a few cities in Canada can support NHL hockey or a first class racetrack but that's no reason why fans living away from those cities shouldn't be able to participate," said Keeling. Racing continues every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday with afternoon racing on Good Friday, March 24. Seniors' bowling E. Thiessen 548 F. Ried 498 H. Wilczynski 579 R.

As the spirit continues to catch hold, the general public is beginning to ask a variety of questions such as how is this community going to accommodate 4,000 young athletes, plus numerous officials, media and spectators? "Well, never fear," that issue is being addressed by the Jeux du Canada - Canada Games Matsqui-Abbotsford 1993 Society. One of the stipulations that must be met before a community can hold such a prestigious sporting competition is the provision of a "first-class" athlete's village. "It's a home away from home for the athletes who are the stars of the games," says Lynne Harris, chairman of the accommodations committee. Harris and her group have been working to identify such a site and modify it to provide an environment that is comfortable and focuses on the athlete's needs. She is pleased to announce that such a facility has been located. After lengthy review of potential sites in Matsqui-Abbotsford, it was decided that the village would be situated at Abbotsford Junior and Senior Secondary schools, a 20-acre site that would also house an athlete's dining room, an information centre, banking facilities, postal services, counselling areas and a chapel. "We feel that this location is particularly desirable because of two large schools in close proximity with a large outdoor recreational area featuring tennis courts, playing fields and a track," says Harris. Easy access to shopping, parks and entertainment centres also made this location ideal. To accent these facilities, "we've also planned village activities to include nightly theatre events, musical entertainment, dances, outdoor festivals and a multicultural food fair." Even though the games are more than four years away, great attention must now be given to even the smallest of details. For instance, the committee must ensure that the bedrooms have comfortale bunks, that there are ample showers and that there are extra grooming rooms with all the amenities to accommodate the hustle and bustle of an athlete's day. Harris explained that all these and other plans must be well thought out, months before the selection committee tours our community, because the athlete's village is one of the key components that could win or lose the bid. Matsqui-Abbotsford must be better equipped than the four other B.C. towns competing for the honor to host the games. This community must show that it can accommodate these athletes and show them the time of their lives. Food services will also be provided for the athletes on the village site, and equal attention (vaRDMaN) must be demonstrated in the preparation of this portion of our bid. Larry Luchak, food chairman for the society, says that the food will be prepared at Abbotsford Secondary and served, buffet- style, in the cafeteria as well as an adjoining tent. "Our food committee has a very special Fraser Valley welcome for the tastebuds of all the participants," says Luchak. The accommodations committee, in conjunction with the food committee, is working to ensure that the athletes will find the village a place of comfort and a haven that caters to all their individual needs. Besides addressing the athletes' needs for shelter, Harris and her committee are organizing housing for games officials, visiting media and spectators. "We do feel that in the next four years, we'll probably see two major hotels being built - one in each municipality," says Harris. At present, plans would be to house the VTPs in a proposed new complex close to Abbots- ford's downtown core. The media would be accommodated in a proposed new hotel and convention centre in Matsqui. Research has also drawn out that there are approximately 400 rooms currently available in local hotels and motels, as well as 150 sites in area campgrounds - facilities that would accommodate many other visitors. In addition, "Hie Fraser Valley has proven to be a Superhost community as was demonstrated during Expo 86 when the Valley 86 bed and breakfast program was implemented with tremendous success," noted Harris. Recognizing this is a very viable component for housing guests in our community during the 1993 games, Harris says her committee has already began compiling a list of suitable bed and breakfast spots. Feeding this additional influx of spectators, guests and media has also been addressed. Local service clubs and other community organizations will be providing food concessions at the various game venues, to complement the restaurants already operating in the community. Anyone interested in helping the accommodations committee can contact Lynne Harris at 859-6968 or for further information, call the Jeux du Canada - Canada Games Society at 854-1993.

Keith R. Fletcher PURCHASING AGENT Unemployment drops THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 VANCOUVER - A major increase in retail and wholesale trade in this area in February contributed to the creation of 14,000 jobs and a sharp decline in the province's unemployment rate over the month, an analyst with Statistics Canada says. "There was a huge increase in retail and wholesale trade," said Marc Levesque. "That's where the largest increase seems to be." The jobless rate in Vancouver fell to 8.3 percent from 9.6 percent in January. Across the province, employment rose by 23,000 jobs. The largest increase in jobs was in the 25-and-older category, Levesque said. Job growth in manufacturing, communications, transportation and other utilities also was recorded, he said. Oxana Exell, Vancouver spokesman for the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, also said the current "boom" in retailing is the result of consumer confidence triggered by a healthy economy. "Generally, the economy has been good in the past year and will continue to be for the next year," she said. A favorable industrial relations climate which had no prolonged labor unrest resulted in people having more "discretionary income" to spend on consumer goods and servcies, said Exell. "It appears the deep scars of the prolonged and painful recession of 1980-82 have been healed," she added. "It's taken this long." A political minefield MURRAYVILLE - It is a "political minefield," says Aid. John Scholtens. And, he adds, there is "a cost attached." Aid. Aubrey Searle agrees. "How much is society prepared to pay? he asks. "How far can we go?" asks Aid. Terry Thorne. But councilors are not prepared to enter the minefield. With Scholtens and Thome opposed, they vote to recommend a number of changes to B.C. Transit. , The changes deal with the use of conventional transit buses by handicapped people. Buses must be equipped with easy access and storage room for wheelchairs, the recommendations read. Bus stops must be covered, and access must be wheelchair accessible. It will cost, not only in money, but also in delays, says Mayor John Beales. And he asks how the disableds are going to get themselves and their wheelchairs on and off the buses without the assistance of the driver, who is not allowed to leave his seat. It could mean delays of up to 30 minutes, Beales suggests. Handicappeds are already served by the special Handidart buses in Langley, but the proposals would integrate the two systems. LOCKHART BROTHERS AFTER 'VALU' Partners they are. Brothers Lloyd, Gordon and Wayne Lockhart of Ladner are the new owners of the Aldergrove Super Valu store in the Centre Mall. The Lockhart brothers, who have a total of 64 years of experience in the retail food industry, also own and operate a Super Valu store at the corner of No. 5 Road and Cambie, in Richmond. ' 'It is a family business,'' says Gordon. "Our parents and my four nephews also work in the business." In all, 14 Lockharts now work at the two locations. Under new management, the Aldergrove Super Valu is going to be service-oriented and an enjoyable place to shop for groceries. Prices are very competitive, as the advertisement below clearly indicates. "We are going to have lots of in-store activities, promotions and demonstrations of food products, says Gordon. "Watch for announcement of our Grand Opening, coming soon. A special event has also been planned for the May 6 to 7 weekend, when Big Brothers and UP Radio will be on location. ' 'Lloyd, Wayne, and myself wish to invite all the old customers of Joe Breier to come in and see us,'' says Gordon. ' 'And, of course, we welcome newcomers to the area as well. " The three Lockhart brothers are excited about the growth potential they see for the Aldergrove area. But they also enjoy the rural atmosphere of the community. "Aldergrove today is like Ladner was 20 years ago when we grew up there, " Gordon says. It brings back memories to the three men.

We moved out with great expectations because we love the country and the birds and animals that go with it. Imagine our horror when we didn't find a living thing on our paradise. I asked my neighbour one day why he had a dozen different birds at his bird feeder and we had none. He told me the previous owner of our land had been constantly at war with all the creatures that came there. He would sit outside and blast anything that moved with his shotgun. Even cats and dogs. We are devastated and are thinking of selling our place. What do you think of humans who have so little regard for God's creatures that they take pleasure in killing them off in such a wholesale manner? Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Signed i Joe and Emma, Matsqui Dear Joe and Emma, It's a sad fact of life that there are only too many cruel, insens- ittive people who get their kicks from slaughtering defenceless wildlife. One can only hope the previous owner has retired to a highrise in Vancouver where he is away from any living thing, human or animal. However, don't sell your new property.

VOX 1A0. VANCOUVER - On June 3 and 4, the second annual Children's Miracle Network Telethon to benefit B.C. Children's Hospital will be broadcast on VU13 and local cable stations throughout the province. In making the announcement, Telethon chairman Bill McQuaid, said that the $1.6-million donated during last year's telethon enabled the hospital to support treatment and research programs and purchase special equipment worth $3.5- million. "By soliciting matching funds from the provincial government and other sources, Children's Hospital stretched those donated dollars to make improvements and buy equipment worth more than twice what the telethon raised," McQuaid explained. • To cite some examples, he noted that tying into a government matching program for equipment purchases made it possible for the hospital to buy an advanced X-ray machine called a CT Scanner, worth $1.4-million, for an outlay of $175,000. In another case, for $150,000 the hospital made a $225,000 renovation to its oncology ward to make it possible for more B.C. children to receive special cancer treatments including bone marrow transplants. Although the same types of government matching grants are not available to help fund research, treatment and parent- patient education programs, McQuaid stressed that the internal applications for program funding were subject to stringent review to ensure that those selected would result in the maximum benefit to the hospital and the children it serves. An allocation committee, chaired by hospital president, John Tegen- feldt, reviewed over 100 applications for telethon funds, rating them according to their individual quality as well as their merit relative to the hospital's role and mission. In the end, the committee recommended fifty projects for funding and, upon approval by the hospital's Board of Directions, a total of $900,000 was disbursed for this purpose. Children's Hospital is the province's only specialized medical and research centre in the province which is devoted entirely to children and McQuaid says money from the telethon is making it possible for Children's to provide advanced, high quality health care. "The provincial government funds our basic operating expenses but to remain a first class teaching, research and treatment centre that can provide specialized care like brain surgery, open-heart surgery and care of very premature babies - care that is not available elsewhere in the province - we need specialized equipment and programs the government does not fund. For this, we rely on fundraisers, such as the Children's Miracle Network Telethon and the generosity of communities, individuals and corporations who support our efforts to keep Children's Hospital a first class pediatric care centre." McQuaid stresses that the telethon is essentially a volunteer effort; heavily supported by donations from the business communitty. Costs to the hospital are minimal and covered by interest from an endowment fund. This year, the Children's Miracle Network Telethon will air from 6 p.m. on Saturday, June 3 until 3 p.m. on Sunday, June 4. Volunteer Telethon representatives are in place in Vancouver and many communities throughout the province and are already planning and running their corporate and public fundraising campaigns.

FAX SERVICE AS LOW AS Where's the proof? BURNABY - The Western Canada Wilderness Committee has been asked by the GVRD Board of Directors to provide facts to substantiate its claims that 'a major mudslide' occurred in the Capilano Watershed which, it said, would result in 'murky drinking water' in the Lower Mainland. It claimed the slide was "definitely the result of clear-cut logging on a steep slope." It made the claims in a news release issued in December. There have been no recent large slides in the watershed, according to a report by GVRD officials. The slide, which the committee said it had "just discovered", happened in 1975, regional district officials say. The drinking water did not turn 'murky' in the period following the claims made by the Wilderness Committee. Fashions for the equestrian By JUL DOWSE MURRAYVILLE - On Monday, March 13 the Mt.

Although both sexes value kindness and intelligence, the five- year study suggests sexual differences in mate selection are virtually universal and probably rooted in man's evolution. Fifty scientists studied more than 10,000 people of both sexes from 37 cultures in 33 countries to rate the desirability of 31 characteristics in a mate, said David Buss, a University of Michigan psychology professor who directed the International Mate Selection Project. The study is published in the March issue of Behavioral and Brain Sciences. The two basic differences emerged in nearly every culture, from Australians with western lifestyles to the Zulus of rural South Africa, Buss said. "Men worldwide place greater value on mates who are young and physically attractive," Buss said. "Women prefer mates who are somewhat older, have good financial prospects and are ambitious and industrious." The research also showed both sexes value kindness and intelligence more than income or physical appearance, Buss said. "When I first found these sex differences in samples within the United States, people were skeptical that they would be found across cultures," he said. "I was skeptical as well. "But after the data from 37 cultures were analysed statistically, I was surprised at how pervasive the sex differences were." Earlier animal studies confirmed the theory that females prefer mates who bear greater gifts, hold better territories or display higher rank, Buss said. Cross-cultural similarities in choosing a mate may result from patterns set by our ancestors, including a woman's traditional dependence on a man for food, shelter and protection, he said. Wright succeeds Otter 4-H Beef's four juniors presented their speeches to judges E. Creasy and S. Follett. Teresa Wright with her speech, "Cuckoo", will be going on to the district competition. Kim Wright gave her speech on "Kangaroos", Rhiannon Pekanek gave a speech on "Wolves" and Heather Easley gave a speech on "My First Babysitting Job." Sandy and Lauren Henderson did a terrific job representing the club at the senior district speeches. Sandy Henderson placed third in the competition. The club would like to welcome their new member, Chad Hewitt. Photo funnies tops OTTER - On February 24, Otter Lamb 4H Club held their annual demonstrations at the Pacific Riding Disabled Association. Winning first place in the senior event were Michael Thome and Jeremy Baker with "Photo Funnies". In the junior event, Kate Baker and Kevin Jones took first place with "Beef Turkey". In their annual speech contest, the winner for the senior event was Thome with Jeremy Baker in second place. The junior event winner was Kate Baker who came first, Wade Lancaster came second. Western European and North American men included in the study preferred mates who were at least one year younger, Buss said. By contrast, men surveyed from Greece, Iran, Colombia and Bulgaria chose mates who were three to four years younger, while Nigerian and Zambian men preferred women six or seven years younger. Women from Indonesia, Nigeria and Zambia most emphasized the earning potential of their prospective grooms, he said. Dutch, British and Zulu women placed the lowest values on a man's money-making abilities. American women considered finances important but not crucial. The value placed on chastity varied widely from culture to culture, Buss said. Men from 23 of the 37 cultures considered marrying a virgin more important than did women. Both sexes in China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Taiwan and Israel stressed the value of chastity, the study found. Most Western Europeans said earlier sexual experience was irrelevant in a potential mate, Buss said. Rally time LANGLEY - The annual inter- church rally will be held at 10:30 a.m., Friday morning, March 24, in the main auditorium of the Christian Life Assembly, 21277 - 56 Avenue, across from the Langley airport.

Soul Arise hits the road LANGLEY - Trinity Western University's leading vocal ensemble, "Soul Arise" will go on the road, April 24, after graduation. The month-long tour takes the group through B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and North Dakota, and ends in Minnesota. TWU's Director of Extension Ministries, Peter Dueck, says the six first-and-second-year music majors "will present the Word of God through song, testimony, devotional messages and sketches. "These are highly qualified people," Dueck says. "Most are planning a career in music." Of the six group members, Jennifer Buchanan and Jodi Lohrenez are from Langley; Kimberley Mitton is from Delta; Robyn Gullackson is from Fort Nelson; Lonnie Delisle is from Prince George; and group leader Wes Irwin comes from Grande Prairie, Alberta. The purpose of the tour is to represent Trinity Western in ministry to churches, schools, and TWU alumni, and to create interest in the University among high school students. The tour also gives valuable music and ministry experience to perform ers. Pre-tour training involves much more than voice rehearsal for this popular vocal group: TWU's emissaries are taught leadership skills, public speaking - and how to be considerate guests! They're billeted in the home of church members, who provide all meals, including bag lunches. Soul Arise returns to Langley, May 23. LOCK YOUR DOORS HELP STOP THEFT FROM AUTOS. PROTECT YOURSELF.

If you are attending a recognized institution outside Canada, the tuition fee credit is still available, as long as you are in attendance at the school for at least 13 weeks. Did you receive a scholarship, fellowship or bursary to go to university this year? If you did, the first $500 is tax-free. That means if you get a $1,000 scholarship, you would only report $500 as taxable income. Don't forget that if you changed residences to attend university, you may be able to deduct expenses if you have moved at least 40 km. But you can only deduct those moving costs from wages, scholarships, or research grants earned at the university location. And, similarly, if you move to take a summer job, you an deduct the moving expenses from the income you earn at that summer job. Research grants are fully taxable. But you may deduct expenses such as books, travelling expenses, or equipment rental related to the research grants. Keep receipts for all your costs to substantiate these expenses. Full-time students may also claim a tax credit of $10 per month for each whole or part month spent at a designated educational institution. Don't forget to get a validated T2202 form from your school to file with your return. With a little luck it may be possible to reduce your taxable income to zero.

Studies have already been initiated by the GVRD for the placement of a fully-equipped air monitoring station in the area, though it could be a year before it is established and in operation. It is also predicated on increased provincial aid to the regional air monitoring program. The station would measure pollutants such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, ozone and particulate on an around-the-clock basis, automatically feeding information to a computer located in the GVRD offices in Burnaby. It is likely that the readings from the Langley station will be added to the already existing 'Air Quality Index' operated by the Regional District. The Index provides the public with the most current pollution levels at five locations in the region, one of them in central Surrey. The information is updated twice a day. To obtain the information call 432-6419. Enforcement of air pollution control permits issued in Langley by the Provincial Waste Management Branch is now the respons- iblity if the GVRD. In addition, the Regional District operates a 24-hour air pollution complaint service. During regular office hours complaints should be phoned to 432-6432; at other times they should be phoned to 929-1201. The Langley communities are also participating in a comprehensive air quality management plan that is aimed at ensuring the Lower Mainland has good air quality in future years. The study program for the development of the plan, the first of its kind in an urban area in Canada, was approved by the GVRD Board of Directors last year. It covers every municipality within the region. The first stage of the plan, to be completed this year, includes an assessment of current air pollution emissions and regional air quality trends. It also examines the potential air quality problems which may be associated with future population and economic growth in the region. CLOSE YOUR WINDOWS HELP STOP THEFT FROM AUTOS.

THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 15 CROWSNEST PASS, Alta. - When the snow melts in a few weeks, Vince Janostak plans to take to the hills in search of gold and the Lost Lemon Mine. It won't be his first attempt. But Janostak, 73, thinks this time his prospecting won't be in vain. His enthusiasm has been sparked by the announcement that an Edmonton geological technician found what he claims is gold while researching a book on the fabled Lost Lemon Mine in southwestern Alberta. Ron Stewart said this week there may be as much as $7 billion worth of gold around Coleman, Alta., along the Crows- nest Pass just east of the Al- berta-B.C. boundary. He and two others have formed a private company and staked a claim in the area. "This find is tremendous - it's out of this world," said Janostak in a telephone interview from his Coleman home. "I'll take a look." Legend has it that Montana miners Frank Lemon and his partner, known as Blackjack, found a pit of gold-bearing rock somewhere in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in 1870. The story goes that Lemon murdered his sleeping partner with an axe, then went mad and couldn't remember where the gold mine was. Although many searched for it, no one could find the mine until December, when Stewart stumbled upon what he says is gold. The geological technician says the gold is "invisible" - locked up in crystals of iron pyrite, known as fool's gold. Janostak doesn't think Stewart has found the main seam or the lost mine, but he's convinced the discovery is real gold. "That's facts, all right," he insisted. But Janostak may be one of the few people who believe there's a potential gold mine in the area. "There were many people looking for this when I was a boy," said Jim Kerr, 88, who has lived in the Crowsnest Pass area all his life and contributed to a book about the area's history. "This thing recurs about every 40 years." Kerr said he doesn't believe in 1 It's a Moving World! And we are here to serve its moving population. If you have just moved into a new home, call the Welcome Wagon hostess. Phone Ruth, 533-5756 (Answering service, f 685-9010)" \ the legend of the Lost Lemon Mine. He said he owns some of the land Stewart has described as gold-bearing. "I own land right there and I'm sure that rock is underlaying it, but I'm not worried about it," Kerr said. Some mining and gold analysts are also skeptical, especially of Stewart's estimate there may be as much as $7 billion worth of gold in the find. "I don't know how they could come up with a number like that," said Ernie Nutter, a mining analyst with Pemberton Securities Inc. in Toronto. Nutter, who had not heard of Stewart's story until a reporter told him about it, said he would dismiss the claims until he had other evidence - such as a geological report ~ that the strike was really gold. Crowsnest Metallics will continue to prospect the area, which is included in a 388-square-kilo- metre claim, once the snow melts, Stewart said. The gold he claims to have found is in a volcanic deposit. Until now, prospectors dismissed the shining veins in the charcoal- colored rock as fool's gold, he said. What's interesting about this particular formation is that the gold is actually invisible," Stewart said Wednesday. "It's actually locked up in crystals of iron pyrite, or fool's gold." But Calgary geologist Terry Poulton said he wondered why gold had not been found until now in the Crowsnest Pass, considering the legend is more than 100 years old. "It's very surprising nobody has found gold there before." WE'LL HELP PAY EMPLOYMENT PLUS HELP NOW. . .WHEN YOU NEED IT.

Gerlado Rivera takes bom-again Christians inside a Palm Springs nudist camp, then slips naked into a fizzing hot tub - CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY? So what's next? Snuff movies? Public hangings? Not likely, but the face of TV has probably been changed forever by this season's onslaught of raunchy non-fiction programs. Call it trash TV, tabloid TV or reality TV - it shows little sign of cooling in popularity despite fears among some television executives that it is dragging the entire medium down the drain. By next fall, about a dozen such programs could hit the air, mostly from the swampy ranks of syndication. Many revolve around crime, but some are war-game formats that seem like sci-fi satire come to life. American Gladiators, for example, will suspend combatants over a boxing ring and pit them in mid-air battles with blunt- ended "pugil sticks." Roller- Games is a kind of heavy metal roller derby, complete with a "wall of death" and a moat of Jhe Fort Langley European Deli te. 3 - 9110 Glover Road (The Mall) Fort Langley, B.C.

LANGLEY 533-3271 live alligators. LINES UNCLEAR Such wrestling-mentality shows are obvious enough, but it is harder to determine the point where a news show becomes entertainment becomes tabloid titillation. NBC has been criticized for its Top 20 hit Unsolved Mysteries, but network executives argue that it is a "classy" or "mild" form of the genre. CBC is even more adamant that its docu-series 48 Hours should not be lumped in with the tabloid pack. Other "reality-based" programs have tried to improve appearances by involving trusted faces, like David Frost on Inside Edition or former CBS newsman Ike Pappas on the forthcoming Crimewatch Tonight. These shows can slip a lot of the critics' punches because of the way in which entertainment values have infiltrated TV news in general. Nowadays, even the most respected news organizations use pulsating music, snazzy people profiles, tight close-ups and other tricks of the infotainment trade. One night on CBS, for example, the crew of 48 Hours captures the chaos of live gunfire erupting on the streets of Miami - police radios crackling, officers mobilizing, frightened residents crying out for help. Another night, on the Fox network's Cops, camermen follow shotgun-toting narcs into a Miami dope house, lights blazing to record the mayhem. Is there really any difference between the two? HONOR DEFENDED Andrew Hey ward, executive producer of 48 Hours, argues that the video verite style of Cops and similar real-crime shows "implies a lack of responsibility on the part of the journalist - you know, tum on the camera and walk away. "Maybe it sounds corny, but our motivation is really to inform and illuminate the debate and we think we bring editorial judgment and skills. Many of those (other) programs are around merely to titillate." If trash TV is like obscenity - in one judge's words, hard to define but you know it when you see it - then many programmers have learned to recognize it by the big ratings. But CBS president Howard Stringer is urging TV programmers to resist the quick-fix temptation of this type of show and think of the future of the medium. "Trash television is the dark at the end of the tunnel," Stringer says. "It is a journey to nowhere paid for with all our reputations." TRASH WORKS Stringer and others believe that trash TV is on the brink of being overexposed and that the trend will soon burn itself out. But many observers point to print journalism, where the sex- and-blood formula has a long record of success. They say trash TV is not a passing fad but an irresistible form of entertainment - and the seed is just now taking root in the still young medium of TV. In fact, BBC commentator Sir Robin Day observed more than a year ago that television is ideally suited to this kind of material. "Television is a medium of shock rather than of explanation, of exposure rather than exposition, of emotion rather than intellect," he said. "This is because of the intensity of the pictures. "It is a tabloid medium." Brandon Tartikoff, head of NBC entertainment, says viewers will likely see at least a "tabloid- ization" of some existing shows. Phil Donahue, for instance, recently appeared on his show wearing a skirt as part of a program on transvestites. On Feb. 20, Sally Jessy Raphael appears in a taped segment where she disguises herself as a hooker and goes out trolling the streets of New York. The economics of tabloid TV certainly give it a bright future. America's Most Wanted - one of the most-watched shows on Fox - is reported to cost the network only $125,000 per half-hour episode - compared with the $500,000-plus that a fictional drama or comedy can cost with high-priced stars, large unionized writing staffs and various sets. But fundamentally, ABC entertainment head Brandon Stoddard says rality TV has a gut-level appeal and fascination that may make it harder to kill than Ted Bundy. "I think there's a real connection for the audience," says Stoddard. "They've seen 10,000 police shows on television. They know every action. They know every move. They know every car chase. And they know it's all trom some guy who's been typing away out in Malibu. "When they see a reality show, it has a very different context. You don't know what's going to happen. That's a real cop. That's a real door he's running through. That's a real Uzi. That's real yelling and screaming. And it has a power to it and a connection that is important, and it's not going to be denied."

Board hears complaints From front to move the meeting site for this Board meeting as the last three meetings have been overcrowded and the Board's subsequent refusal. He questioned, "Are you afraid of meetting the public?" He asked "Is the School Board Chairperson helping to achieve a settlement and improve teacher morale when she says on TV and radio 'Teachers are going to be denied the same working conditions as other teachers?' How will these public statements help to attract new teachers to a growing district like Langley in the face of a looming teacher shortage?" He reminded the Board that "We have consistently told the Board that Langley teachers will not settle for less than their colleagues in the lower mainland, especially in light of the fact that they have had to wait so long, expend so much energy, and lose pay." He reiterated, "Langley teachers will not settle for less and we expect the Board to realize that and begin serious negotiations. We ask you to direct your team to come to the table prepared to recognize the reality of bargaining teacher contracts in 1989. Recognize what sixty-six other districts have in the province. Recognize the conditions that ninety-one percent of the teachers in the province are living with today." He concluded, stating, "We remain available to negotiate around the clock. If you can't get it together before spring break, we are available through that week." "We know that it can be worked out within a few hours once you realize that Langley teachers will not settle for less. I suggest that you negotiate a contract and open the schools." He quoted from a letter which he stated came from a secondary school staff member:" ...it seems only logical to seek a supportive district elsewhere. It is sad that the attitude of this Board and senior management is such an unsupportive one. Through bargaining thoughts and actions, we feel that you have been treating all nine-hundred-plus teachers as if we are incompetent and untrustworthy, rather than as responsible professionals..." Chairman Grinnell was shouted down as she thanked the delegations. When she had regained the floor she reminded members of the audience that the normal practice of the Board is to issue a response to public delegations at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board in two weeks time. She was repeatedly disrupted by loud yells, hoots, howls, cries and laughter as she atttempted to deliver prepared remarks about the state of negotiations and the prospect of a settlement. She stated that as it ^ was Owens' position to speak on behalf of his union members, it was her responsibility to speak on behalf of the Board. She reminded the audience that the Board was elected by the citizens of Langley to act on their behalf in the best interests of the children's education. At one point, she abandoned a passage altogether as the unruly crowd drowned her remarks. As she atttempted to continue, "Let me assure you that I and the entire Board of Trustees are experiencing a great deal of frustration over these contract talks," she was again shouted down with derision. "The Board entered into mediation this last week with optimism. The Board was particularly dismayed, however, to hear that before mediation had begun, the union had declared a strike threat deadline for Sunday night." At this time, and amid loud thumping from the back of the room, she responded to shouts and accusations from the floor. "For all of you in this room, if you had been present at the Board meeting when the lockout notice was given by this Board, it was given on only the (the next word was drowned out) for safety for students..." (again the floor erupted into catcalls, hoots, whistles and yells). She continued "When we were talking about going into mediation with optimism, I would like to say that on Friday evening, the Board saw, in the weekend edition of the newspaper, the advertisement informing the public of the strike deadline before we went into mediation. This advertisement, I might add, was placed in our local newspapers before Wednesday so that it would be in the weekend paper. That is what we were greeted with going into mediation." As she atttempted to speak over the noise, someone in the audience stood and called for quiet so the chairman's remarks could be heard. A heated exchange took place between teachers and memberfs of the public and Chairman Grinnell warned that, "If the meeting is not kept in order, the trustees will not remain within this room." Teachers then broke out into loud and sustained clapping and yelling, chanting "Contract, contract..." Chairman Grinnell again askea if the audience wished to hear about mediation or not and after a round of applause, the dissidents in the crowd quieted momentarily. Grinnell, despite repeated interruptions, stated that Owen had commented on how slow the progress was going. She agreed with the statement, stating, "In fact, that is very true. There are a number of items between us still but we did manage to sign off five items. Five items that are from a very, very long list that started last April. One of those items is staff committee. That's a major clause for this Board to sign because for whatever reason the teacher's union did not want the principal of the school to be involved in the staff committee. We have agreed at the table that the principal will not have to be a member of the- staff committee. That was a major give on behalf of this Board." (Loud shouts and groans of derision greeted this announcement). THE ALDERGROVE STAR, MARCH 23, 1989 17 -d "We also agreed to a regular work year for teachers (she was drowned out at this point)... and a letter of understanding regarding a recess break for kindergarten teachers." (More taunting laughter and hoots.) "In addition the Board's negotiating team has made significant changes to nine other conttract clauses and is awaiting a response which the union has not yet given us as they broke off talks at a quarter to eight last evening. Many of the proposals that we have given the teacher's union meet or exceed the final setttle- ments reached in other districts. While the Board is not prepared to follow this pattern in settlements in all areas, it has made proposals on weekly instructional assignments, in that the Board has offered to maintain the status-quo which in most schools is a twenty-five hour instructional week. Currently this includes twelve and one-half percent ttime; that's preparation time at the secondary level. In addittion the Board has offered sixty minutes preparation time at the elementary level. This is in line with other setttlements and exceeds many which specify a twenty-seven and one-half hour instructional week at the second ary level. In the area of reporting, the Board has offered to reduce the number of specified final reports at the secondary level from four to three. No other contract in this province has this provision. In the interests of promoting a settlement (again she was drowned out) this Board agreed to this item. The Board has offered 14 percent over two years which compounds to a total of 14.67 percent in line with Please see page 20 HAIRCUTTER Leo Nolin, in residence at "LaFleur," Sundel Square.
