mw*m Town plan gets warning MURRAYVILLE - There was a dire warning to local taxpayers from a Langley man critical of the township's 'recreation master plan' Monday night John Gunner of 21040 - 85 Avenue told township councilors that "Langley is quickly becoming' a municipality of the rich," thanks to "the most expensive legislation ever (passed) by any council of Langley." Gunner called "council's scheme to push through this costly plan with as Utile opposition as possible, alarming." He said taxpayers of Langley could not afford the $50-million price tag put on the recreation plan. "Cost will be reflected in every tax bill sent out from this hall for decades to come," he asserted. Master plan was conceived and executed by a small group of very wealthy people.and local politicians, Gunner said, and was never properly explained to the public. Councilors did not agree. "We had delegation after delegation come before us (urging adoption of the plan)," said Aid. Steve Ferguson. "We couldnot have opposed it" Ferguson added that taxes would also go up because of infrastructure requirements such as roads, water lines and sewers, and that recreation was just another valid township investment in the future. Aid. John Scholtens said he voted in favor of the master plan. because it was "necessary to have a plan." He added, though, that he was also "concerned with the. cost." Only Aid. Muriel Arnason cast a grim light on the plan. Cost to local taxpayers would not stop with the capital investments in new multi-million dollar facilities throughout Langley for sports and culture, she said. "There will be great deficits" in operating these facilities after they are built, she. warned "The plan certainly shows impressive figures," said Gunner, "pointing seemingly to a great desire on the part of the citizens of Langley to acquire a large number of recreational facilities. ■ ' "However, numbers can prove anything, and though to the casual reader it would appear that the majority of (Langley) households surveyed were in favor of various facilities, .close scrutiny reveals a different story." What the ordinary citizen wants, Gunner said, is more 'passive'.parks and improvements to the existing ones. "And don't build expensive monuments." Plan has been hailed by many arts and sports groups in the community. ■ VOL. 33 NO. 17 THURSDAY. APRIL 25, 1991 30 CENTS Established 1957 3089 • 272 Street, Aldergrove, B.C. Call 856-8303 or 856-5212 No smoking zone okayed MURRAYVILLE - All public facilities in Langley township will be declared "smokefree" forthwith. Councilors here made the decision during a closed meeting last week They will "review" the ruling after a 12-month trial period. Already, smoking has been banned in the municipal hall here. Transit gets tax dike MURRAYVILLE - Taxes will soon go up again... but Canadians are getting used to that This time it is the B.C.Transit authority that will be taking another dive into your pocketbook. Transit commissioners have decided that they need another $23.8- million this year in order to run SkyTrain and the bus system. Where does this money come from but the taxpayer in the lower mainland? In short, it means that fares will be increased by eight percent, the monthly Hydro levy by 30 cents, and non-residential property taxes by five percent. In addition, the province will be asked to increase gasoline taxes by one cent a litre. "A further incentive for people to go to the U.S. to tank up," laments Aid. Muriel Arnason. "Truckers are already saying they can't afford the ever-increasing taxes," Arnason says. "It will mean a higher cost of produce to die consumer." Arnason says Canadians are making themselves less and less capable of competing on the international market thanks to ballooning taxes and consequent higher wage demands. There is no end in sight Despite a broken collar bone, Matthew Harks, age nine, part of the fifth Langley group of Cubs was joined by Stanley Gregorowich, Bradley Harks and 23 other Scout groups on Saturday, April 20. The Langley/Aldergrove district, as well as the Peace Arch district Scouts gathered together for a third year, to take part in "Trees for Canada" by planting seedlings near Aldergrove Lake. Conviction thrown out Canadians Hold it, says alderman tunin9 out ■ ' ■ %W • SYT'trAll/A _P__*__wfl_ane MURRAYVILLE - "Only way to stop taxes from going up is for us to keep away from getting into things we shouldn't be getting, into," says Langley Aid. John Scholtens. A recommendation from staff suggests that council should adopt a policy on accepting applications for the construction of antenna towers. Recently, neighbors complained when they learned that a cellular telephone company was proceeding with the construction of an antenna tower ... in an Aldergrove industrial park Scholtens has repeatedly warned council to refrain from building an extended bureaucracy in Langley with the attending force of civil servants to police the bylaws. This week, he also had unkind words about a staff report suggesting that the Langley Rod and Gun dub at 208 Street and 38A Avenue was designated for future residential development Spokesmen for the club recently came to council complaining about die effort by neighbors to force them put "Club has been here for more than 40 years," said Scholtens. "They may be them for another 40 years... or maybe 400." OTTAWA - Canadians are gradually turning away from television, but still watched an average of 23.4 hours a week in 1989, die government's statistics agency said this month. Viewing peaked at 24.3 hours a week in 1984 and has dropped every year since then. French-speakers watch more than English-speakers, and people in the east more than those in the west, Viewing rises sharply after age SO. "People think teenagers watch a lot of television, but actually teens are some of the lowest viewers," said agency spokesman John Gordon. MATSQUI - The Supreme Court of Canada has overturned the judgment of B.C. Court of Appeals in the case of a 26 year old man convicted of the first-degree murders of two women here in the early '80s. The court has ordered a new trial, with a date yet to be set. Kent Institution released Wesley Garth Evans, Friday, after the Supreme Court threw out the convictions on the grounds that police lied to him and violated his constitutional rights. Police had falsely told him that his fingerprints were found inside the house, and accepted his confession without the presence of a lawyer. Evans was convicted in January, 1986. He had confessed in 1985 to the brutal killings of Lavonne Cheryl Willems, 27, and BeVerley Mary-Anne Seto, 37. The court said Evans, who is brain-damaged, didn't fully understand his rights when he was questioned by Matsqui Police. The decision has split the community, with some feeling that Evans was incapable of the crime and was used as a scapegoat, and others who fear that justice was thwarted. The B.C. Court of Appeal had earlier said that Evans' acquittal would bring the administration of justice into disrepute. Second Class Mail Registration No. 1270 Postage Prepaid, Aldergrove, B.C.

Quebec separates, there is political turmoil, the Americans rush in with arms cutting off all communications systems and take over Ottawa. A first class invasion of Canada by our neighbors to the south. Sound hilarious? Don't laugh tool soon. According to Queens University professor Floyd Rudmin, the possibility of Americans planning to invade the country in the face of political chaos is very real. All we have to do is look south of the Ontario border to Fort Drum. "There are 30,000 soldiers stationed in the middle of nothing," Rudmin says. "They call themselves the Tenth Mountain Division. Where are the mountains? They are training for urban warfare. Walk away ills LANGLEY - Don't forget to mark the Langley Walk on your calendar. It is almost here [ Sunday, May 5, beginning and ending at Noel Booth Park, 36 Avenue and 202 Street. Registration is between 10 a.m. and 1 pm. The starting gun will be fired at 11 am. but you have until 1 p.m.. to actually begin the walk. For the past several years Keay Bysouth has done a fine job as master of ceremonies. The former township employee will be back once again for this annual event Two bands will perform at the park for those who finish the Walk quickly or who are there to pick up participants. The school band from Aldergrove Secondary will play between noon and 12:45 p.m. Ihey will be followed by a local rock and roll group called Nexus, who will entertain fin- about 30 minutes. The Langley Walk is in its 29th year. It is intended to be a walking event for die family. However, jogging, running, cycling are not discouraged. The route begins and ends at Nod Booth Park and is 7.1 miles (11.5 kms) long. There is no charge and no money to be raised. It is a joint City-Township-Lions Clubs event Homicide MATSQUI - Police are probing the death of a woman, after a body was found in the basement of a residence, April 18. The Caucasian woman, aged 20, was found under "suspicious circumstances", said police who were called -to 33442 Avondale Aenue, shortly after 8 p.m. Autopsy on the unidentified woman was to be performed on April 19. Slowdown ends OTTAWA - The end of the housing downturn is at hand. Rising two percent to 106,000 units at a seasonally adjusted annual rate, total housing starts continued to edge up in March from the February level of 104,000 units, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The gain in March was due to a substantial 15 percent increase in urban area single- detached starts to 45,000 units. - Nice homes MURRAYVILLE - It Would be important for councilors to seriously look at a rezoning application before giving it the go-ahead, Aid. Aubrey Searle said Monday night. Application for the rezoning of 14 acres of land at 202 Street and 96 Avenue was submitted by Garth Olson on behalf of Jacob Stobbe and Katherine Neufeld. "There are some very nice homes in that area," said Searle. World economy worst in years WASHINGTON - The International' Monetary Fund expects the industrialized world to turn in its worst economic performance since 1982 this year,,but looks for a rebound next year, Western diplomats say. The IMF's semi-annual forecast expects economic growth in the industrialized world to slump to 1.4 percent this year. That would be the worst performance since the global recession of 1981-82 and compares with growth of 2.5 percent last year. The poor performance reflects the impact of the Gulf crisis, particularly the sharp rise in oil prices that followed Iraq's invasion of Kuwait last August .. But the IMF expects growth in the industrialized world to pick up next year to about 2.8 percent, paced by economic recoveries in the United States, Canada and Britain. Global output, which includes die economies of the developing world, is also expected to pick up in 1992, to about three percent Diplomats say the IMF generally agrees with the Bush administration that the U.S. economy will snap out of recession later this year. The IMF also expects Canada's economy to . bounce back strongly next year, growing at well above three percent "They say they prepare to fight hot climatic mas; they have an arctic weather training site. One of the aims of an invasion would be to disrupt our communications systems and achieve control of the government." Operation True North is something Rudmin says Canada should not ignore and pay closer attention to, especially as the political situation with Quebec becomes more volatile War brought technological revival LONDON - Long after the Gulf war's <mt-M_-.ii.-. consequences have been forgotten, the conflict is likely to be seen as the political event which did more than any other to push mankind into outer space. The most visible consequence of what President. George Bush calls "kicking the Vietnam syndrome once and for all" is likely to be a revival of the technological "can do" attitude, a belief that advanced and complex machines can solve many human problems. Before the war, faith in high technology had sunk so low that people who held this view scarcely dared voice it But now, without any desire to gloat over the enemy's destruction, they have become exuberant Few have had the opportunity to observe this psychological change more closely than Professor Alec Boksenberg, director of Britain's Royal Greenwich Observatory who, as a member of die Hubble Space Telescope users' committee, regularly mixes with America's high-tech establishment "In the weeks before Desert Storm," he says, "I found little but gloom. The very names technology' and 'space' were held in low repute. All that people like congressmen could talk about when you mentioned them were billion-dollar telescopes that didn't work, space shuttles that couldn't fly because of hydrogen fuel leaks and "bloody awful NASA'. "Now all that has changed. I don't mean that the facts have changed. The same NASA and the same defective Hubble am there as before. But there has been a profound change in people's attitude towards them.

The legislature will resume sitting next week under new premier Rita Johnston. She has kept Mel Couvelier in the finance ministry and he has indicated that provincial revenues have decreased significantly over the past year. The faltering forest industry is chiefly responsible for the economic downturn in B.C., which had been performing better than the rest of the country until recently. Peterson said economic diversification, including more lumber remanufacturing, has been a success, but it has not been enough to counter trade problems and international recession. He added that his numerous visits to the interior of B.C. have shown a dramatic difference between their economies and that of the Lower Mainland area. "They're hurting in ways that we haven't felt down here," he observed. BUSIEST STORE IN THE AREA - LOTS OF STOCK - PLEASANT STAFF - AND ALWAYS PRICED RIGHT!

Those were the words of Canadian Labour Congress president Shirley Can, who said the first installment of public sector cutbacks has been felt with 15,000 jobs lost "These losses will negatively affect the prospect of recovery in the private sector," Can said. "This government has a lot to answer for with unemployment being at its highest since 1985." She noted that 347,000 mote jobs have been lost in the last 11 months, we have double digit unemployment in seven provinces, and the jobless level is at its highest since the mid-eighties. She pointed out that the most vulnerable in our society have been hardest hit - women and youth. Twenty-one thousand more women have been thrown out of work, she said, noting mat for a single woman, job loss means almost certain poverty. CABim R&BJUdjnG LETTERS TO THE EDITOR This is progress? Is there a double standard? Editor, The Star, Sir, After reading the article about Lois Fowler, April 11, regarding the inadequacy of the government family maintenance enforcement program, my heart went out to Lois and to others who are facing the same stressfull situations. • > I wonder if the fathers of these children and, the husbands of "deserted" wives feel any shame or compassion? Whilst man has walked on the moon his discarded families struggle in the gutters of life. How can a father's love suddenly turn to indifference with empty promises and empty bank accounts. Having a court order for maintenance is one thing, trying to enforce it another. Bureaucracy would rather go after parking ticket monies than dollars for deserted women and children. My patents came to Aldergrove in 1938 and worked long and hard to put bread on our table.

MRS. N. COOPER Aldergrove Editor, The Star, Sir, Mr. Paul Martin, Liberal MP from LaSalle-Emard, near Montreal, addressed a local group in Langley in late March concerning natural gas storage. He advised the people attending to vigorously fight this invasion of their rights by an irresponsible gas Suzuki not telling truth Editor, The Star, Sir, Canada's ecological guru, David Suzuki, may have committed economic treason when he was interviewed for the German TV documentary broadcast there recently entitled, "A Paradise Deteriorates - Environmental Problems in Canada". Suzuki says, "What's going on here is nothing short of the same thing as what's happening in Brazil. What we're seeing is a rapid depletion of a unique ecosystem in a very short period of time to maximize profit..." His rhetoric is long on emotion, short on fact. In fact, the deforestation _ of Brazil is a result of a massive conversion of rainforest to grasslands for cattle and non- sustainable shifting agriculture. In B.C. we practice reforestation to re-establish the forest after logging. What was forest remains forest. My main concern is not that Suzuki has once again distorted reality in pursuit of his own agenda - I'm used to that. What offends me most is that he would do so in a way that adds to the clamour in Europe for a boycott of Canadian forest products. This shows his blatant disregard for the working people of Canada and their families who are directly supported by forestry. He is also indirectly attacking our social infrastructure and, ironically, fouling his own nest at the CBC and UBC, institutions which also depend upon money generated by the forests. As one of those working people, I would like to ask of Mr. Suzuki: Please do your duty as a Canadian and a scientist - tell the truthl If this is impossible for you, please go back to your fruit iliesl MIKE ALEXANDER White Rock company. It is interesting to note that in his home province in Quebec and 120 luns. from his home riding, Gaz Metroplitain has developed an underground storage facility. This is located at Pointe Du Lac, west of Trois Rivieres on the shore of Lac St-Pierre, part of the :-St. Lawrence River. The. field is under a developed urban/ rural area very similar to the Fraser Valley. The minimum storage depth in an aquifier is 75 meters with a 20 meter cap rock. My initial investigation indicates there have been no problems and the public has accepted the project as a necessary addition to insure a reliable gas supply. Of course there are a number of people with concerns but the efficient and safe methods used to bring the field on stream has changed public opinion considerably. Why has this facility received practically zero news media coverage considering all the devasting things that should happen? It seems it would be appropiate to ask a few questions. I ask the Friends of the Frazer Valley to advise the citizens of Langley their opinion on the position taken by Mr. Paul Martin on the Pointe Du Lac storage facility in an aquifier so close to the surface? They should also advise us if they consider it appropriate for Mr. Martin to make such strong statements in Langley considering his position on the gas storage facility in his home province? Why has the "SN" group been so silient on the Pointe Du Lac project? I ask the "3N" group to be honest and intelligently discuss the Pointe Du Lac project, clearly and positively, stating the advantages and disadvantages. ERIC J. BYSOUTH Langley Earthquake no threat to gas Editor, The Stair, Sir, I would like to respond to Sylvia Esdale's concerns about earthquakes. Natural gas drilling and production activity has co-existed with earthquake prone regions for more than 60 years without a single reported leak of gas or oil coming to the surface. Oil and gas production from California and Alaska has been subjected to many strong earthquakes. In some California examples, earthquakes have been generated along faults which cut through natural gas fields without allowing any leakage to the surface. Similarly, most of California's nine gas storage fields have remained perfectly sealed during earthquakes with epicentres with 10 km of these fields. Ms. Esdale points to the possibility of a mega earthquake (9-9.5 on the Richter scale). The Pacific Geoscience Centre states that this type of earthquake is possible for the offshore region of the west coast of Vancouver Island. Oil and gas fields have preformed safely even under these extreme mega-quake disturbances. The Anchorage earthquake of 1964 recorded a 9.2 magnitude disturbance. The Cook Inlet gas fields are located 40 km south of Anchorage, within an equal distance from the epicentre which was located in Prince William Sound. There was no leakage from these fields and damage to the production platforms was miiimal. This Pacific Geoscience research group has established predictions of seismic disturbance risk for the Langley-Aldergrove area. The peak ground motion disturbance predicted for this area is about half of what has already been safely experienced by gas fields in the Coalinga and jfCern County regions of California. Dr. Weichert (Pacific Geoscience Centre) testified at the public inquiry that seismic activity comparable to California exists in British Columbia but only in the offshore region of Vancouver Island. He also indicated that he is not aware of any active faults in the Fraser Valley and that our earthquakes do not break the surface. - There is no evidence that a gas field will leak to pose an environmental or public hazard during an earthquake.

Children were invited to bring their bikes to be engraved with a parent's driving licence number. If the bike is stolen this allows the police to trace the bike and if the child is in an accident the identification of the child is also assisted). All the bikes were inspected. A bike too large is dangerous and likely to wobble, one too small is too difficult to ride. Brakes were checked, as well as that the steering wheel is not too tight. The stem is not to be loose and the pads on the tires are not to be worn down. The wheels go out of round if the spokes are hot arms were ensure they did tight. Crank checked to not wobble or were too stiff. Laurel Zilke,. who raced internationally with the Canadian national cycling team from 1983 to 1989, came to talk to. the students about road safety. Most important is the wearing of helmets. Each year about 20 people die in bicycle accidents in B.C. Another 2,000 people are injured; Head injuries cause most of the deaths and serious injuries. It is essential that the helmet is fitted properly and worn correctly. It must cover the forehead and fit • above the eyebrows. Buy the one that fits best and not the one that the child will grow into.; Bike marking is safe, sure way to protect investment. Blair hosts bike safety roadeo LANGLEY - On Friday, April 26, from 8:30 to 5:30, the W.C. Blair Recreational Center will feature a Bike Safety Rodeo as part of the school professional development day. Other activities will include swimming, games, crafts and movies. This event is for ages75-12. Cost is $20 per participant. Ensure your child brings a lunch, snack, bike, swimsuit and towels. For information, please call 530-9283.

Vehicle Branch specify that white reflectors are placed on the .front and the back of the bike. It is illegal to ride double. Zilke emphasized that the back pack or bag be correctly placed in the middle of the back or centered in the middle of the bike to be sure of not having too much weight off-centre. Shoelaces must be tucked inside the shoes and a bag balanced so that loose tags are not caught in the wheel or chain, or else the cyclist could be sent flying. . Students were told to put their foot on the ground when coming to a stop at the stop signs, walk through intersections and over train tracks. Always give cars the right of way when near an overpass, as it's better to be safe than sorry; Zilke suggested riders sprint quickly past dogs or yell at them to go home. Spraying them from a water bottle is a good deterrent, or stop and get off the bike and place the bike between the dog and oneself. It is recommended not. to; ride a bike at night. Zilke, who trains and rides a great deal, would rather walk home or. call for a ride than risk night riding. The worst way to fall is put the hands down, as they can snap. If one falls off the bike it is preferable to cover the head with, the arms than to place them on the ground to protect one's body. If one knocks their head when falling lift the head immediately rather than lying there and absorbing- the vibrations.)

Pro-Lifers plan "let me live" life chain Tricia Lovegrove to head for Denmark By LARA BRODIE ALDERGROVE - "The first time:.I. got*onto a horse was when I was; about six, in which case I was pretty scared, (I thought) what am ;I doing on top of this huge animal?: .1 ^didn't know if it was a long oWay. to the ground if I happened to.fall." . By the age of two, Tricia Lovegrove, a Vancouver resident was completely blind as a result of retina blastoma -cancer of the optic nerve. "I don't know exactly when it started, it was a very slow process, I guess I was about eight or nine when I started having serious trouble with it." Now, at age 21, Tricia is completely deaf in her left ear and wears a hearing aid in her right. "I can hear without my hearing aid, but it gets a bit distorted, so I'm not 100% sure what somebody said." But despite it all,. Tricia keeps more active than most, she's involved with crosscountry skiing, track (she's now looking for a guide runner and has visions of the Olympics) and takes horse riding lessons. She says of her active lifestyle, "I didn't want to be classified as a couch potato as so many of the blind people seem to be." And a couch spud she sure isn't. Since September 1983, Tricia has been getting horse lessons with Maureen Mortimer. Most of that time spent in Langley with the PRDA, the Pacific Riding for the Disabled Association, and for the last six months, Tricia's father has been driving her to Regents Park in Aldergrove every Friday. "I was about ten when I got into really heavy riding ... I've had various other instructors when Maureen isn't LANGLEY - On Saturday, May 11, over a thousand Christians and their clergy will line the sidewalks and road shoulders of Fraser Highway and the Langley Bypass, forming a Life Chain in the shape of a cross (approximately two kilometers in length). This stand of solidarity by Langley-Aldergrove area Christians is being made to communicate that abortion is wrong, the church is opposed to the killing of pre-born children, and women are often victims of abortion. Uniform sighs which state "Abortion Kills Children" or "Abortion Hurts Women" will be held by those who attend. This event will take place from 2 to 3 p<m. Many pastors from the greater Langley-Aldergrove; churches are already committed to participate. Anyone who wishes to participate should call 576- 1051, 580-7743 or 534-1195 to be assigned to an area. Elderly or disabled Pro-Lifers should bring chairs and umbrellas. Small children under close; parental supers vision are welcome. available but, she's the best.!1 And watching Tricia with horse, Red, and. instructor, Maureen, it wasn't hard to see, the bond of trust and confidence that links the three.With the help of headsets,. Maureen keeps in contact with Tricia, instructing her which way to turn the horse and then it's up to Tricia to relay the instructions to the horse she rides. They make it look so easy!. Upon graduating from Prince of Wales Secondary, Tricia decided to continue her education right away at Langara College so that she wouldn't get out of the "learning mode". After 2V£ years at the college, and with ambitions to be a physiotherapist, Tricia has taken time off to concentrate on her horse riding. In August she's off to Denmark for the World Equestrian Games. "I like competition although the pressure sometimes gets pretty high." Tricia has participated at some competitions at the B.C. Games for the Disabled and at Expo 86, just to name two. Eventually, Tricia will go back to school, either UBC or the University of Manitoba but until then she's going to be a busy person focusing on all of her sporting activities. As her father says, "Like everything else she does, she does it (riding) pretty good.'' Can't argue with that. Watching Tricia ride and talking with her, it's really as though there is no disability at all and because she lives as though there isn't one there really isn't any. Tricia is a clear example of how life should be, work with what you have and don't be a couch potato. God bless you Tricia in all of your ambitions. siruciors wncn maurecu ran i »»«w» «» ~... «.» 7~-. »...u...~.. ▲▲▲▲▲AAAA-fcAAAAAAAAA£ "^T" VOLUME W^ A A A 4 4 4 4 A A A ► ► ► ► OLUME FITNESS STORES INC.

Plans for a future freeway connector 'linking die Trans Canada with the north shore via a bridge from Langley to Maple Ridge are alright, he says, but the provincial government should be thinking further ahead when it comes to die actual construction. Councilors have suggested a link through the proposed Redwoods golf course, but the provincial highways department has been slow in responding. "It would seem logical to buy the property or at least designate it (for that use)," Searle says. "Instead, we let them build a golf course and then later we build a highway through it," he says, shaking his head. Weather brings hydro profit up VANCOUVER - Unusually cold weather - particularly in December 1990 - contributed to a five percent increase in the amount of electricity sold by B.C. Hydro during the first nine months of the utility's 1990-91 fiscal year. In addition, almost 31,000 customers were added to Hydro's system to the end of December - an increase of two percent over last year. Resulting higher sales provided slightly more than 50 percent of the higher revenues experienced during the period; the balance of the gain in revenues is attributed to rate increases of three percent and 1.5 percent that took effect on November 15, 1989 and April 1, 1990. Hydro's third quarter report shows net income of $145 million - an increase of $69 million over the comparable, period last year. When nonrecurring items are excluded, the improvement was $132 million. Still, Hydro's return on equity' was only 13 percent and return on capital invested was 11.6 percent - both well below the average returns investor-owned utilities would expect. Higher revenues were only part. of the story: decreased operating expenses and finance charges contributed significantly to the strong financial performance. For the nine months ended December 31, 1990, overall expenses including the cost of energy and finance charges were down by $25 million compared to 1989. Despite extraordinary repair costs - estimated at about $5 million, stemming from winter .storm damage - Hydro's operations, maintenance and administrations costs decreased by $14 million from last year. Hydro's finance charges, decreased by $22 million compared to the same period' a year ago. The third quarter report says Hydro's . maintenance programs are reviewed and . updated .routinely to ensure the highest possible level of reliability consistent with sound- management. Under normal, operations, staffing levels are. adequate to perform maintenance and repair work in the most efficient and productive manner. Hydro says "...it would be irresponsible to constantly maintain, sufficient crews to deal with emergencies that may occur Only once every 20 years." In December, severe .storm conditions caused falling trees and';:branches to bring down power lines in several locations but especially on the I-ower Mainland aind Van- couver Island. . % In the Aldergrove Centre Mall Featuring Spring & Bridal Fashions Saturday April 27th 1:30 to 2:30 pm •Live Entertainment* -"MOTHER OF THE YEAR" You are invited to nominate a Mother, Grandmother, Step Mother, Foster Mother or any woman who filled a mother's role.

The only store in western Canada to get three A's on it, manager Ken Thicke says it's because he has a really good crew. "The kids out here are -different," says Thicke. The Q.S;Ci award is given eyery four months. The Aldergrove McDonald's have won it for all of 1990, and are still holding their own in first place. Every four months the winning team is rewarded with a thousand dollars. Our local Mac has once again set a precedent by mutually agreeing to donate the monetary prize to the Ronald McDonald's Childrens' Charity Fund. Ours is the first restaurant to do so. The cheque was presented on Saturday, the 20th of April, at 4 p.m. by the staff members. It was followed by the Ronald McDonald show. The staff felt that they have so much that to spend the money on themselves would not be as rewarding as giving it to the RMCC. The idea was put to the vote and; was a unanimous yes. The criteria for winning the Q.S.C. award is, of course, based on the quality, cleanliness and the service, District supervisors spend four days scrutinizing the restaurant's production. The efficiency of the staff to handle the food hygienically and fast. To be polite, and the restaurant spotless, and contribute to the profitability of the restaurant is the goal. Twelve supervisors are constantly on the watch at every McDonald's, checking their twenty pages of lists of specifications required for all the McDonald's to adhere to. For example, keeping the muffin toaster cleaned regularly, to making sure the food, is correctly rotated. Throwing out the deep frying fat every four days, and throwing food away that has been sitting in the bins for ten minutes. Scrapers to be sharpened five times a day and exhaust filters to be cleaned three times per day. The lists get right down to the nitty gritty of keeping the flagpole clean and the plants looking fresh all of the time. The standard of serving food in .the drive through is 75 seconds. Occasionally, there is a rare three minute wait when the bins were changed. Approximately 2,500 transactions are made in a day with hardly a complaint. The employment of staff is very diplomatic with equal work for everyone. Meaning that everyone must know how to cook the Big; Mac and how to mop floors and push the Wildfires: ' _em_.- Prepare Fire Season Starts April 15th Contact your local British Columbia Forest Service District Office for information on fire safety for forest homes and burning permit requirements.

Out of eighty restaurants in B.C. our local McDonald's was the second most profitable restaurant per thousand dollar sales. This is due to well trained staff in part; largely due to the expert management of Ken Thicke. consumers a price break BURNABY - The price of a McDonald's hamburger will be reduced to 69 cents in most locations. The prices of cheeseburgers, sausage Mcmuffins and several meal combinations are also being reduced in a program Ron Marcoux, executive vice- president; says is designed to strengthen McDonald's leadership position7as the quick service' restaurants offering the best, value. . 7 "We think Canadians deserve a break," says Marcoux, "and we . think it's good for our business to give our customers a price break, especially at a time when they're being hit with GST and a rising rate of inflation." Thicke is also involved in the junior achievement awards and presently is tutoring a business education class at Aldergrove secondary school. Thicke is the best man for the job, having aced in the management awards run by McDonald's. They had to make a new category, because Thicke passed the demands by so many extra points. ____, 7-iacomwm s Moving WorU! And We are here to serve its moving population.

"Just blows me away," said Searle. He compared grants to j Langley district with those allotted to Matsqui and Langley city, and indicated that this township was getting the bad end of the stick. Langley district's share of the loot in basic grants amounts $81,043 while die city with a much smaller population will receive $59,879, and Matsqui will pickup $91,724. However, in unconditional grants from die province, Langley township will get $2,972,712, Langley city $847,556, and Matsqui a cool $3,013,745. Searle just can't figure it out LANGLEY Special needs students at D.W. Poppy Secondary School will soon be able to get out into the community more often thanks to a Partners in Education agreement signed Tuesday at D.W. Poppy between the school and B.P.O. Elks Lodge 259L The Elks* first action under the new agreement will be to fund a special wheelchair van for transporting handicapped students to and from activities outside the school. The partnership was signed by D.W. Poppy Principal Cam Gesy, School Board Chairman Marlene Grinnell, and Kevin Blyde and Wayne Bartlett of Elk's Partners in Education Committee. Also attending the signing were committee members Dave Sinclair, Gordon Force and Clay Maclean. Rose Arnold represented the lodge's Royal Purple branch which will also be involved in the partnership. This is the district's 26th partnership and the second one for the Elks, who are also involved with the Uplands elementary School Hearing Impaired Program. The D.W. Poppy partnership came about after Blyde, Sinclair, and Force visited the school in March. "I didn't know there were special needs students at Poppy. When we went, it opened our eyes and we saw their needs," said Blyde.

Marcon had applied to die local council for permission to tezone land at 22702 - 48 Avenue to service industrial use, but it was .denied this week by municipal aldermen. dependently handicapped students are wheel-chair bound and rely on attendants for their mobility, feeding, dressing and toileting. Activities such as horseback riding at the Valley Equestrian Thereu- peutic Centre and aqua- therapy at the Variety Pool in Surrey are extremely beneficial to their physical and emotional well being. The van will enable staff to easily and readily transport students to these locations. According to the school's. Special Services Department Head Deborah Olsen, other staff will use the van to take the school's trainable mentally handicapped students into the community for life-skills training. "It (the van) would definitely not be sitting idle," she said. The partnership ties in with the school's goal to develop students' knowledge, skills and attitudes to prepare them for the year 2000. "By getting our handicapped students into the community, we are developing their life skills for the future," said Gesy. "We want to make sure that they and their parents have many experiences in the community, and also that the community has the opportunity to see them more," he said. Gesy is especially pleased that the partnership was unsolicited. "The offer was Very, spontaneous. They saw! the need," he said. The partners are exploring ways the school can contribute to the Elks' work. Plans are underway for, the school band and choir to perform at Elks community events. The school has also offered to help the Elks find a Miss Langley candidate among its students. "With this partnership, we see once again how much our schools and community groups and businesses have to offer each other," said Grinnell. "We're very pleased and very grateful for the Lodge 259's commitment to Langley children," she said. -V What can church teachyou about life^slingp and arrows?

It received many compliments but the attendance was poor. Although the paintings by our members were the main attraction, there was also a display of hand-painted silk scarves by Audrey Dyke of Abbotsford. Our president, Audrey Fatkin, had a table of her original hand-glazed,. home-fired pottery and jewelry. Chad Makela of Aldergrove, an award-winning saxaphqnist and Clint Sargeant of White Rock entertained with musical numbers on Saturday. Iris Preston, president of the Langley Arts Council, officially opened the show. Because so many of those that saw our show praised the quality of our work,. we have, decided to put on another one either in the fall or next spring. . In the meantime, if anyone wants to join our club or buy a painting they can phone: Audrey, 856-2794; Connie, 856-1388 or Doris, 856-9515. First-time home buyer's seminar SURREY - Real estate market conditions have improved significantly since February, with all-time record sales in the Fraser Valley in March. Despite this fact, there is still ample inventory from which to choose. Buyers who have waited for the "right time" to buy are now looking for information to guide them . through the maze of legalities, Financing details and the wide range of available housing which often baffle them, i In response to this need, the realtors of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board are once again hosting a "First" time Buyers Seminar", one of a series of popular free public seminars the board has presented over the years. Following the format of last November's seminar on "How To Buy a House", a panel of four speakers will address everything a first-time buyer needs to understand: how to select a realtor and what to expect from him or her, how to arrange appropriate fihanc: ing, what to expect from the lawyer in the transaction, and how. to use the services of a home inspection service to full advantage. Thete will be a question and answer period at the end of the session where those in attendance may find out first-hand the answers to questions that may have inhibited their decision to buy in the past. It will be held on Thursday, June 13, 1991 from 7 to 9:30 p.m. in the auditorium of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, 15463 - 104th Avenue,. Surrey. Members of the public may register by calling the receptionist at 588-6555. Seating is limited, so please call today. Complimentary light refreshments will be served. Please enter off the rear parking lot. There is ample parking. Fishing the Valley by Brian Lee and Roger Dornan The recent warm weather has accelerated the lake openings in the Interior, especially in the Princeton area. Some lakes which have produced excellent catches of rainbow trout are Dry, Round and Liard Lakes. The lakes in the Merritt area are just starting to break free of ice. Kentucky, Courtney and Marquart Lakes are expected to be free of ice. by the end of the weekend. In the Kamloops region, White, Jacko and 6 Mile Lakes have been ice-free for more than a week, as temperatures reached 26 C during the day last week, resulting in early-season chironomid hatches. Naturally, chironomid flies in the darker colors of green, black and brown in sues 12 to 18 are very effective, but must be fished with lots of patience. For those of us who are a little short on patience, try green damsels, black woolybuggers, bottom walkers (dragon fly nymph), with sink-tip or full-sink line. Again, slow retrieves or a dead slow troll are the best techniques. Remember, some Interior lakes are closed until May 1, sp if you're planning a trip this month, it's a good idea to check the new regulations (which you picked up with your new licence, right?) at local tackle shops. . .. As you read this column, you have 10 day's of steelheading remaining on the Chilliwack-Vedder, and Chehalis Rivers. Activity has been , brisk — some would even say excellent *- during'the last few. weeks, so if you want to take a last crack at these great sports fish, try a pink rubber worm (seriously!) from the Allison Pool, and up. Sturgeon fishermen beware, the freshet is starting and soon debris and dirty water will soon make Fraser River fishing a pain in the $%•#!!! Oh well, you know. Watch for updates on the spring eulachon run which should take place in the next four-six weeks. . '• Cutthroat fishing should take right off in the Harrison since the Chehalis hatchery made a major chum fry release last week. Obviously, minnow pattern or a small silver spinner (0 or 1) would be the best bet: . At the April 14 West Water Fly Casting Clinic, a custom Powell fly rod was lost.

White Rock resident Carl Dilley would like everyone to mark the week by talking about organ donation. "I recommend that couples and families sit down and talk about organ donation. Maybe even talk about it with your family doctor. Beforehand consent really helps. It's a decision you shouldn't leave for your next-of-kin to make alone." Dilley is glad that he and his bride discussed it last fall. Newlywed Betty Dilley was helping her husband fit his credit cards into a new wallet when she noticed the decal on his driver's licence. The mark identified her husband as a potential organ donor. She thought it was a good idea and said she would register as an organ donor the next time she renewed her driver's licence. But there was no "next time" for Betty. She died from an asthmatic attack last fall, one week after she and Carl had returned from their honeymoon. It was partly their conversation about organ donation and partly his own need to "make some sense or meaning" out of his young wife's sudden death that convinced Dilley to consent to his wife becoming a multiple organ donor. Today Dilley says, "I am really glad that I did it. Somehow it helps to think that Betty's death was not a total waste. It gives some reason why all this happened." While legislation does not allow Carl any specific information about who the organ recipients were or where the transplants took place, he has been assured that the transplants were successful and he has continued to keep in touch with the coordinators at PORT. PORT, The Pacific Organ Retrieval for Transplantation Program, is part of the British Columbia Transplant Society which was established in 1985 by the provincial government and the medical community to develop an efficient coordinated and expanded provincial transplant service. Transplant coordinators are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It was the PORT coordinators who provided the information and the support that Carl needed to make his decision concerning donation organs at the time of his wife's death. He explains, "A PORT coordinator came to Peace Arch Hospital and talked to me and to Betty's family for about an hour. It really helped us understand the whole process of organ donation." The main limitation on transplant programs now is the shortage of suitable donors. Information pamphlets and organ donor registry cards are available from Motor Vehicle Branches, Autoplan agents, Public Health Units, hospitals, B.C. Government Agents, and the British Columbia Transplant Society. Hey, brother! LANGLEY - Did you know that there are 6,000 boys and girls across Canada waiting for a Big Brother or Sister? and there are 45 children in our community waiting for a Big Brother?

Hydro's energy conservation program is increasing efforts to influence the 5,000,000 a year replacement fluorescent tube market in B.C. This new 32 watt energy- efficient tube stands out from its wider 34 watt Power Smart cousins. Now, the giant Scotia Tower in downtown Vancouver is to be retrofitted with 10,050 of the new tubes which required a special ballast. The building COMICS PRESENTED BY will save 1.7 million kilowatt hours annually, enough electricity for 170 B.C. homes. The '32' is not only slimmer it uses up to 25 percent less power than the inefficient 40 watt tubes which still dominate the B.C. market. However, 40 watt tubes are fast being displaced by the'34s'. It's hoped the slimmer '32's, will make an attractive alternative for designers and architects wanting energy-efficiency combined with better light and colour rendition.

A View from Hospital Hill By the Board of Directors and Staff of Langley Memorial Hospital Cardiology at LMH is a section of the Laboratory, and is the area responsible for heart testing. LMH has one full-time Registered Cardiology Technologist who is responsible for E.C.G.'s. Stress Testing and Hotter Monitoring. E.C.G.'s (electrocardiograms) are tests done to show the function of the heart at rest. It is done by attaching electrodes to the patient's skin, one on each arm and leg and six across the chest. The electrode picks up the electrical signal from the heart and draws a graph as the signal passes through the heart. The graph is read by the doctor to help with the diagnosis. E.C.G.'s are done on inpatients and out-patients, take only 5-10 minutes are are completely painless. Stress Tests are E.C.G.'s done during activity. They are done by appointment in the mornings from 0900-1100 hours Monday to Friday. The patient is adivsed ahead of time not to eat a large breakfast and to wear loose/ comfortable clothing. The patient is prepared and the test run by the Technologist and supervised by a Physician of Internal Medicine. The patient's heart is monitored while walking on a treadmill. The test starts slowly and increases gradually in speed and uphill grade until a target heart rate is reached or the patient tires. The patient is monitored for several minutes after the test to ensure the heart rate returns to normal and the patient is confortable. The doctor discusses the test with the patient and the patient is allowed to go home. A Holier Monitor is a device which records the heart beat on a 24 hour tape. Electrodes are attached to the patient's skin and the wires feed back the message to the recorder carried on the patient's belt or in a shoulder carrier. The patient follows a normal routine while carrying the recorder, and keeps an activity diary noting any symptoms that may occur. When removed, the tape is printed out like an E.C.G. The Physician reads the print out, correlates it with the diary and sends a report to the patient's doctor. The department averages 50 stress tests, 650 E.C.G.'s and 6 Hotter Monitors per month. Cardiology at LMH is a busy and active area offering several services to the community, Save water, urges GVRD BURNABY - Changes to the provincial plumbing code to require all new construction and renovation to use water- saving fixtures is recommended by the Greater Vancouver Regional District. The first priority should be a requirement for low-flush toilets, it says in a report to be forwarded to the provincial government. Low-flow shower- heads and faucets are also recommended. The measures would reduce the consumption of water and the volume of wastewater going through the sewage treatment plants, which could result in savings in tax dollars in the years ahead by enabling some water and sewerage improvement projects to be delayed. Indoor water use accounts for up to half the total residential water use, about 60 percent of which goes into toilet flushing and showers, with lesser amounts for sinks and laundry. Most toilets now in use take over five gallons per flush, though new fixtures on the market using 3.5 gallons are becoming standard. In the U.S., low volume units, using 3 to 0.7 gallons, are available. A report to the GVRD board of directors says there is little direct financial incentive for residents to replace existing devices but amending the Plumbing Code to require water-saving fixtures in new construction and renovations 'is|. one of the most cost- o effective measures for long- term water conservation and should begin as soon as possible.11 Volunteers celebrated SURREY - The volunteers of the Variety Child Development Centre are some very special people. Lower Fraser Valley Cerebral Palsy Association said thank you to volunteers on Monday, April 22 and Tuesday, April 23. On April 22nd, they honored very dedicated auxiliary volunteers, with a dinner at Yick's Restaurant. The auxiliary has worked diligently for over 30 years to raise funds for the centre. They operate three thrift shops and have several events throughout the year. On April 23rd, a special lunch was held at the centre for special on-site volunteers. These people are the extra hands that help in so many departments from the pool to preschool to the workshop, and children, parents and staff are very grateful for their support. All volunteers, auxiliary or on-site, are that special kind of people. Children, attend from throughout the Lower Fraser Valley as volunteers. From; New Westminster, Abbotsford, Langley, Delta.

The initiative enables interested First Nations communities to develop, manage and deliver their own health programs. It responds to the long-standing desire of Indian people to control community programs and was developed in accordance with the 1979 Indian Health Policy which says that an improved state of Indian health should be built on community development, the traditional relationship . between Indian people and die federal government, and the interrelatedness of the Canadian health care system. The Sto:Lo Tribal Council received funding under die transfer initiative to conduct a health needs assessment and to develop a community health plan. The health plan identifies as key priorities for die delivery of community-controlled health . services: alcohol and drug abuse; suicide; death by injuries; poisoning and accident; pollution; teen pregnancy; nutrition standards; low birth weight; smoking; obesity; and stress. Under the terms of the health transfer agreement, the Sto:Lo Tribal Council will employ a health co-ordinator community health nurse, alcohol and drug abuse counsellors, community health workers and various administrative/clerical staff. Medical advice and supervision will be contracted with a local physician. Resources to implement the plan will be provided by Medical Services Branch- When ratified, this transfer agreement will be the third with Indian bands in British Columbia. The two signed previously are with the Nisga's Valley Health Board and the Nuu-chah-nulth Health Board. In all there are four other native organizations in B.C., representing 38 Indian bands, that are developing plans to assume control over health care service delivery from the federal government Although transfer provides more flexible funding mechanisms and changes accountability guidelines so that Chiefs are responsible to the members of their communities for the success of the health program in meeting community needs, the Minister of National Health and Welfare remains accountable to Parliament for financial management and overall program results.

Research shows that values decreased nationally by 3.4 percent between July 1, 1990 and January 1, 1991. This follows a 0.7 percent increase during the first half of 1990 and a 2.4 percent Census promises if it's personal, it's confidential VANCOUVER - Information ' . provided on census questionnaires is used as a basis for community decision-making, only after it has been combined with similar information from millions of other households. In this way, your answers are used to develop profiles of Canadian family structure, communities, housing, employment and health care needs without jeopardizing personal privacy. The next census of populat- ^ ion will take place on June 4. According to the chief statistician for Canada, Dr. Iyan Fellegi, "There is no tradition in the history of Statistics Canada that is stronger than our commitment to protect the confidentiality of personal information." Personal information provided on a census questionnaire is protected by law - Revenue Canada, the police, the £> courts; and even the Canadian Security intelligence Service are all denied access to this information, nor can release of the information be subpoenaed for any legal proceedings. "Because census data is such a vital planning tool, and means real dollars in federal government transfer payments to the province, it is essential that everyone participates in the census," notes Norry Fitzpatrick, regional manager of communications for the 1991 census. "In order to gather complete and accurate information about Canadian society, we must guarantee protection of personal information for everyone who completes a census questionn- ..,, aire on June 4. Each person missed in the census costs the provinces about $600 per year in federal funding for local education, health and public protection services." All employess of Statistics Canada who handle census returns are required, under the Statistics Act, to take an oath of secrecy, and are subject to fines of $1000 and/or imprisonment for any violation. In the 72 year history of Statistics Canada, no agency employee has been charged with a breach of confidentiality. "The law is backed up by security procedures at every level in the data collection process," notes Fitzpatrick. "For example, names, addresses and telephone numbers provided on a census questionnaire are used only for checking that we have received a form from every household, and ensuring that the information provided is complete. Names, addresses and telephone numbers are not entered into the census data base, so it is impossible to identify an individual through census information." Once data entry is complete census questionnnaire are microfilmed for historical and genealogical, purposes. The original questionnaires are then shredded, and the paper recycled. There are strict security precautions regarding employee access to the microfilm records! Census records over 100 years old have been turned over to the dominion archivist providing an important historical record of our nation. A census questionnaire will be delivered to every household in the region between May 27 and June 4. increase in the last half of 1989. Land values vary considerably within provinces because of productivity differences and market conditions. British Columbia recorded an average land value increase of three percent. There was little change in land values throughout most of the province, while in the Okanagan and Fraser valleys a buoyant economy and non-farm investors contributed to a 15 to 20 percent increase in farmland values in those areas. Land values in most areas of Alberta declined, although the change in values ranged from about a 10 percent decline to an eight percent increase. The land market in Alberta appeared to be unstable last fall as a result of uncertainty of grain markets, decreasing values an average of 3.3 percent. Sluggish grain markets and falling grain prices, combined with high interest rates during the last half of 1990, appeared to be factors contributing to lower land values in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Land values declined in both provinces, with Saskatchewan recording the largest average drop of 5.7. percent. In Manitoba, the land value decline on average was less than one percentage point; Farmland values in Ontario on average remained stable, showing only a 0.4 percent increase. However, major price swings were reported between and within areas. In Quebec, values increased 1.2 percent. The Maritime provinces also. reported stable or slightly increased land values, except for Nova Scotia where values dropped an average 3.9 percent, the first decline since 1985. The decline in land values in the last half of 1990. is the first national decrease since the 1981 to 1988 period, when land values across Canada declined by over 35 percent. Land values are currently at about the same level as they were in 1979. By MAUDIE MacPHERSON ALDERGROVE - Just been reading about the aging brain and according to the doctors being interviewed, it is just folklore that the mentality of the aged is so much less alert than the younger generation. They say the skin wrinkles, the eyes dim and the muscles sag, but the brain in most cases continues to function well. True it shrinks a little and loses some of the agility of the young. A person seventy years of age in tasks like naming familiar objects presented, takes an average of one quarter of a second longer than at age thirty. However, on the whole, aged people can enjoy involvement, in much the same way they always have. Could it be, older people have more stored in the memory, so takes longer to sort it out? So when you can't remember the day of the week or when you stand quietly wondering what you went downstairs for, put it down to being so busy with Senior's activities it's almost impossible to keep track of everything. Yarrow O.A.P.O. conducted .an excellent Regional Meeting I thought. It was lively, interesting reports were given and some good points of business were discussed. One of the delegates showed interest in the "Massage Parlor" and the chairperson was very helpful. The meeting finished off with a social hour and. lovely lunch. . Fifty-two were at Wednesday's dance. Don Stanfield of Surrey was welcomed as a first time visitor. Spot dance went to Florence Mehden and Roy Le ' Hux. 50-50 was won by Georgiha Onstine and Lorraine Ver- boom. Good crowd attended Saturday dance. Door prizes went to Alma Stender and Al Lane. Spot dances were won by Cliff Sther and Marguerite Charles and Georgina Onstine and Bill Kazlowski. 50-50 went . to Doris Neilsen and Alice Steevenard. Birthdays celebrated were for' Cliff Anderson and Jean Neff. The Jamboree was held Sunday, April 21 with five bands: Bill Minty, Norm Gunter, The Toe Tappers, Westernaires and Home Town Fiddlers all taking part. Carpet bowling Thursday as usual. Two carpets were used. One team won all three games. Can't say we were all so lucky. It's all in fun so come and join in. The Choral group concert is Monday, April 29. It's free, begins at 7:30 p.m. and I hope we get a good crowd. The next General Meeting will be May 3 at 1:30 p.m. Don't forget the Whist party April 25 at 7:30 p.m. in the OAP hall. Let's have a good crowd, fill the tables and enjoy. Guess that accounts for Seniors' activities for this week. "Like a piano, you may not be grand but ; you can be upright."

It has developed from being a very small show with local aircrafts and local enthusiasts to being a respected arid grand display which is' actually the best flying exhibit of its type in the world. As a result of this the board of directors recognised there was an opportunity to do something more for the country arid for the community than just a flying display every year, and that was to inject a commercial componant to the whole program. The objective of Airshow Canada is to be an aerospace trade industry showcase for the North America market. 1989 was. the first aerospace showcase with over 200 companies from thirteen countries as exhibitors and 1,000 business representatives from 41 countries. It was considered a great success. The goals for the 1991 trade show are different with 300 companies from 22 countries exhibiting. Up to 14,000 business and professional visitors from as many as 45 countries will be on hand. What this means for Canada is a successful venture that will be the showcase for North America and the aerospace industry. There is no other place in North America that offers this kind of venue and it is a, great opportunity for British Columbia, that will be recognised world-wide as the place to do business in the aerospace industry. A 150,000 square foot building is being constructed at the Abbotsford Airport, and will be a permanent home for the exhibit. It is a clear indication to the world that they are serious players that have a strong financial and philosophical backing by the provincial and federal governments and that they have a great chance of succeedng at becoming the most important aerospace tradeshow on this continent. Exhibits at the show will include a tremendous range of aerospace and high tech equipment. Different systems of avionics and ground handling equipment will actually handle aircraft and move them around on the ramps. There will be people there who will be interested in the air traffic control systerhs. There will be companies interested in building airports, and companies wanting to invest in the industry. President Ron Price expressed, "the great opportunity it is. for the high tech industry to be set up in Abbotsford which will offer high paying, and high skill jobs that will move with the future. An educational component that is the fabric of the community. It is important to keep in mind that it is an opportunity for us to actually make some choices and invitations to people who want to come here, and I think we should be doing that right now. It is a positive thing that other communities would give their right arm to have a collection of people that come here every other year with what they have to offer. "We should invite them in to invest here and create jobs and be a part of this community." The beauty of the aerospace industry is that it is a clean industry. Natural gas burning, hydrogen aircraft with low noise level is the advanced state of the art aircraft called the TfU.1,55 from the Soviet Union that the airshow is hoping will be on display this year.

Logging moratorium to get review BURNABY - Greater Vancouver Regional District directors have decided to wait until after the current watershed management public review process is completed before giving further consideration to a moratorium on logging in the watersheds. While the board felt that it was not practical to terminate existing contracts at this time it said there is to be no increase in the rate of harvest until the matter is dealt with. The review process includes public meetings at .the Robson Square Conference Centre in Vancouver on May 2 and 5; and on May 4 if required.

What more could you ask? snaps in January and February took a huge toll on Lower Mainland gardens. "I think it's only now that gardeners are beginning to find out just what, plants they lost," he says. "The cold snap hit many local professional growers as well," Herbst notes, vand this may make some plants more difficult to replace than normally." Herbst says the Alpine Garden Club's annual spring sale is an ideal opportunity for gardeners looking to replace unusual plants. "Our members take an active interest in more unusual plants, and our sale is one place to look if you're seeking unusual items. "Apart from the sale, there'll be the opportunity to see some of these plants in bloom, and to ask questions about them. "This is a particularly valuable service. for gardeners with problems such as damp areas or parts of the garden which are always in shade. "At the sale they'll be able to get the best possible advice on what plants to buy, when to plant them and how to care for them. Apart from plants, the club will also have its vast seed collection on display for purchase by members of the public. "We have seeds of more than 1,000 plants available," Herbst says. "They've been gathered from the furthest corners of the globe, some by our overseas members and some by other gardening clubs. "Again, it's a chance to try growing plants which you'll otherwise never see," Herbst says. The spring sale is held at the William Griffith Community Centre, 851 W.Queens Rd., North Vancouver, between 1 and 4 p.m. The club, with more than 600 members, is one of the largest of its type in Canada.

They have grown from 2,000 square feet of greenhouse', 'into 15,000 sq. ft. of four greenhouses, due to the hard work of Derick Smith. Since V 1989, Smith has married, and his new wife and his parents plus three employees run the operation of growing stock. Producing over 100 varieties of popular bedding plants and the growing of Christmas trees, they also grow hedging cedars, junipers and cypress. New to the shop is a full selection of gardening accessories, fertilizers, compost, potting soil and tools. Exprienced quality advice is offered, as ever. Working 10 to 12 hour days, seven days a week, Harvest Moon has acquired the reputation of producing strong healthy stock, and that is why their prices run at the middle of the road. Lower in price than the large nursery centers in the heart of a town, but not the rock bottom prices of garden centers that sell lower grade plants, either. Smith advises to choose plants that are young and vigorous as opposed to too tall plants or one; that. is soft. Plants;•. with weak stems if grown too tall will never be as strong. Plants that are sold at very low prices are usually a No. 2 product and can never be compared with the best. Vegetable bedding plants will be Teady by the first week of May, and though Harvest Moon is a blaze of color right now with double blossom impatiens, geraniums and marigolds it is still a little too cold to put outside. However, they are magnificient plants that will brighten any patio or window sill. Derrick and Donna Smith of Harvest Moon Garden Centre.

Councilors, like so many times before, are split on the merits of the proposed development Aid. Muriel Arnason says it is "inappropriate" and that she would prefer to see a municipal park in the mined-out pit Nodding agreement, AldAubrey Searle says Langley Plant two trees MURRAYVILLE - Everyone should be "forced to plant two bees on their property, one in front and one in back," says Aid. John Scholtens. He is being facetious. Monday night he was taking issue with people who object when their next-door neighbor or even someone down the street want to fell a tree. In some cases, Scholtens said, the trees are dying, or already dead and decaying. New image of old master VANCOUVER - Leonardo da Vinci's name will live forever as the person who painted the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. But this Renaissance man was muck more than a superb artist; his genius is also apparent in the designs he created for aeroplanes, automobiles, helicopters, submarines and even bicycles. Science World presents some of the incredible machines of this master inventor in Leonardo da Vinci: Engineer and Architect Opening May 11 and running til Sept. 2. Leonardo da Vinci: Engineer and Architect features 18 working machines, based, on drawings by die artist, and brought to life by demonstrations which will make the connections between 15th century inventions and 20th century applications. The exhibition focuses on Subdivision nixed MURRAYVILLE - Councilors here turned down a subdivision request made by threes south Aldergrove residents Monday night Erling Nielsen and Ken and Laurie Strieker are the owners of 15 acres at 767 -240 Street They were represented at council by lawyer Robert Barlow. The three owners want to split the land into three parcels and were trying for council's support at the agricultural land commission level Barlow said the property is surrounded by five-acre parcels and not really farmable because of drainage problems in the area. Councilors, however, refused to lend their support. Leonardo as one of the founds of modem engineering and architecture, disciplines to which he devoted most of his time and which provided him with his livelihood. Included in the exhibition is a huge model of a church, faithful in every detail to drawings made by the artist, illustrating his principle architectural theories. In "Leonardo, Engineer", visitors learn of his technical apprenticeship during the building of the cathedral dome in Florence. Another section shows die structure of his machines by comparing their mechanical elements With his observations on the mechanics of the human body. The final two sections examine the more complex machines - cranes, screw jacks, hoists - and Leonardo's studies of the mechanics of fluids. In "Leonardo, Architect", the visitor will find an analysis of the solutions proposed by Leonardo for the construction of the dome of the Cathedral of Milan, as well as designs for central-plan - churches and a look at some different civil architecture projects. The exhibits in Leonardo ad Vinci: Engineer and Architect were organized and built by staff of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts' in collaboration with die Istituto E Museo di Storia della Scienza in Florence, Italy and the Centre d'etudes sur la Renaissance at die Universite de Tours, France. The exhibition has received international acclaim on its displays world-wide. Its appearanc at Science World marks its North American west coastdebut. "cannot afford urban sprawl" and that the development . is "untimely." He says he sees it "as a wedge" to open a flood of development applications from the area. Aid. John Scholtens says he prefers to see die matter, debated in council. Plans for another park he abruptly dismisses."We cannot afford (to buy) it," he says. - The public will be asked for input at an open house within a few weeks. Plans for the present development proposal include an 18- hole golf course, 144 estate lots and 50 single family lots. In the past, various uses have been suggested for the acreage, ranging from a mobile homes park to a garbage dump. Neighbors now favor the Chartwell Golf Links proposal, but Searle says that is only because they see it as a future opportunity for themselves to subdivide their own hobby farms. No facilities ate available in the area to service extensive urban development, Searle says. Sign of the times? MURRAYVILLE - Sign looks just like any other Goodyear sign. And council members here don't like it one litde bit. They say that when die tire (and tune-up) company was allowed to build a new outlet in the Walnut Grove area, company officials assured them that this sign would be different - less obtrusive and more green. It didn't happen, they say. Disappointment to say the least They'll have another talk with company officials. Some of die council members like discretely front-lit signs, and back-lit signs (the current rage) are definitely out Airport, again MURRAYVILLE - Local taxpayers "deserve to have the Langley airport run in a business-like manner," Aid. Muriel Arnason said Monday night Arnason and fellow alderman, Aubrey Searle, were again trying to get the other councilors to go along with some radical changes in airport management Arnason and Searle want more money from the users of the airport Searle wants lease and rental rates increased "to reflect die actual market value" of the airport land. Other councilors say die airport is making money for the taxpayers the way it is, and besides, die rates cannot be raised to a level where they would be non-competitive with other lower mainland airports. Even Vancouver International does not charge that much more than Langley, they say. *4M 28 THE ALDERG THE ALDERGROVE STAR, APRIL 25, 1991 SAFEWAY We bring it aUtogether•■♦ FRESH STRAWBERRIES California grown.
