CIRCULATION: 9,200 COPIES VOL. 32 NO. 44 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 30 CENTS Established 1957 3089 - 272 Street, Aldergrove, B.C. 856-8303 FAX 856-5212 PRESSURE IS ON Money wanted MURRAYVILLE - A special meeting of township council was held here Monday afternoon. Five of the seven councilors were present. Emergency session dealt with a report from the recently appointed mayor's task force into low-cost-rental accommodation in the township. Aldermen present voted to proceed with more rental housing of this type. Recently, they rejected a proposal from the Aldergrove Kinsmen club for a complex close to the Langley airport. Four of the seven council members argued that the location was wrong, and Mayor John Beales assigned a special committee to come up with better locations. Committee has had to act swiftly, since the provincial government has indicated that if nothing is happening in Langley, funds for this purpose will dry up and the township will be dropped to the bottom of the heap when grants are considered. At a recent appearance before Langley council, local MLA Carol Gran promised that "millions and millions of dollars" were available from Victoria for low-income housing. This week, councilors voted to "keep" this money. They also voted to force through a new bylaw to facilitate this effort. Bylaw is expected to get initial readings this coming Monday with final approval to follow in rapid order. Committee is said to have come up with a possible location somewhere in the 22200 - 22400 block . on Old Yale Road south of 48 Avenue. Aldermen Steve Ferguson and Aubrey Searle were absent from the meeting. VICTORIA - Finance Minister Mel Couvelier has confirmed that all ministries have been asked to cut spending for the rest of the year. Although Couvelier would specify no amount it has been learned from other sources in his ministry that the financial services directors in all government departments have been told by Treasury Board to reduce spending by one-and-a-half percent for the second half of fiscal 1990. This translates into over $100 million in cuts. Couvelier made the comments at the annual convention of the Social Credit Party. He blamed a shortfall in corporate tax receipts of "tens of millions of dollars" so far this year. Spending would be reduced in order to produce the balanced budget predicted last spring. Premier Bill Vander Zalm promised at the same convention that there would be no increase in taxation, and declared that "lower priority programs must be cutback or eliminated." Sources in the finance ministry have also confirmed that ministries have been instructed to plan for a budget in 1991 which is 5 percent lower than this year. This would mean a cut of $750 million.

The 300-pound behemoth was grown from special seeds by local farmer Frank Nikaido, who needed help from three other men to deliver it to Mount Lehman Credit Union for a Hallowe'en competition. Members entered guesses on the weight last week for the prize of a bagfull of loonies. It was then delivered to Bradner Elementary for the students' Hallowe'en party. Highway development gets study MATSQUI - Councl has approved spending for an independent study on the issue of further commerical and light industrial development on Fraser Highway, east of Aldergrove. Provincial funding for the study, expected to cost about $15,000, will also be pursued. B.C. not prepared VANCOUVER - One year after a massive earthquake rocked San Francisco,' experts warn that British Columbia's west coast is at risk of being hit by an even more devastating earthquake, yet little has been done to prepare for such a devastating event. They maintain that chances are great that sometime over the next 30 years, the lower mainland region will be hit by a major quake, resulting in billions of dollars of damage and substantial loss of life.. Despite that danger, and the graphic evidence of damage provided by the California quake just one year ago, little has been done in B.C. to prepare for an earthquake, say some observers. One estimate has it that up to $400 million should be spent to ensure that public buildings such as schools and hospitals are prepared to withstand an earthquake. However, those same experts note that emergency response to an earthquake is improving with dramatically improved methods of communication and co-ordination. The last major quake to hit southern B.C. was in in 1946 when an earthquake measured 7.3 on the Richter scale. The San Francisco quake, by comparison, was measured at 7.1 and caused nearly 70 deaths. One quake expert, who is being credited with predicting the San Francisco disaster last year, says there is a higher probability of a major quake in early December. He based this claim on tide charts. Municipal planner Paul Moritz suggested a framework that would review feasibility, assess policies of the various involved government agencies including Langley municipality and assess the demand and potential for such development. Municipal staff recently completed a similar study, after a year's work, but it was challenged by the Fraser Highway Ratepayers' Association and three aldermen as an inconclusive report. The motion for an independent study was carried by all six aldermen, Monday. The aldermen and mayor debated whether the study should encompass the entire strip of the highway between Station Road and Mount Lehman Road, or "nodular" development in specified areas. In the end they decided to leave the question open for the consultants. Moritz said that six months should be allowed for the study findings, but alderman John Friesen said he expected it back much sooner. "Who can work for $15,000 for six months?" he asked. In a related issue, council heard suggestions for development of property located at the south-west corner of Fraser Highway and LeFeuvre Road. Property owner Moshe Paz wants rezoning from Local Commercial Zone to Service Commercial Zone and Service Station Zone.

Finance Minister Mel Couvelier met earlier with 50 top economic experts. For the most part, they told Couvelier Political dodging VANCOUVER - Prime Minister Brian Mulroney during his visit to British Columbia, took great pains not to meet with avowed GST-opponent Bill Vander Zalm. Despite the fact the two leaders were at the same hotel at the same time, there were no meetings between the prime minister and B.C. premier. Questioned on the lack of a meeting, Vander Zalm conceded the prime minister might be angry over British Columbia's strong criticism of the tax. In opposition to the tax, B.C. has launched a court challenge against the imposition of the proposed tax on most goods and services. that the province of B.C. should not take any extreme action to prepare for the recession, largely because B.C. was better suited than any other province to make it through the expected economic slowdown. Couvelier refused to reveal exactly what advice he received from the experts, but he did say that their comments tended to reinforce the government's current course on the economy. ' 'The preponderance of views was that we shouldn't over react ... we shouldn't panic," said Couvelier. The finance minister noted that the government intends to fast-track a number of capital works programs if the recession hits the province, especially hard, with up to $20 billion in projects planned. Couvelier, who has advised all government ministries to initiate five percent cuts in spending through the rest of this year, said that there should be a distinction made between such operation expenses and capital spending.

OTTAWA - Liberal leader Jean Chretien has promised that a Liberal government would implement a sweeping tax reform program. He says the Liberals would do away with the proposed goods and services tax if they are elected to form the next federal government. Chretien has assailed the Tory's record on taxation, saying the average Canadian family is paying $3,000 a year more in tax than it was in 1984, when the Conservatives took power. . Chretien has been a vocal oppdnent of, the proposed GST going as far as to encourage Liberal senators to do all they can in the Senate to block the legislation. Meanwhile, Liberal senators are gearing up for a final battle on the GST. Liberal Senate leader Royce Firth suggested the Liberals are counting on independent senators to vote with them against the tax, thus denying the legislation its required Senate approval. Without the Senate's approval, the legislation cannot be passed into law. In a move to counter that Liberal opposition, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney appointed eight new senators last month, thus denying the Liberals their long -held majority in the Senate. Although the Grits no longer enjoy a clear majority, they would be able to block the B.C. lags as leading earners VICTORIA - British Columbians still earn more than Canadians of other provinces, but the gap is narrowing, according to a 30-year economic review released by the provincial government. The Economic Accounts, 1961-1989, shows that real personal income per capita of British Columbians has risen from $6,294 in 1961 to $14,532 in 1989. For Canada as a whole, the real income per capita climbed from $5,003 to $14,233. Between 1961 and 1980 the gap had widened, and over the same years, the provincial economy grew by 5.5 percent annually, while the national growth rate averaged 5 percent. Since 1980, however, the nation's economy grew by 3.3 percent a year, and the province's by only 2.3 percent.' The increase in the value of the dollar, to its highest level in years, has encouraged imports. Their value grew by 40.8 percent since 1987. The total value of exports actually declined last year, by 1.8 percent, for the same reason. The review also showed that British " Columbians are changing from being makers of things to providers of services. Manufacturing comprised 40 percent of the Gross Domestic Product in 1961, and 33 percent in 1989. The service sector's share of the GDP grew from 60 percent to 67 percent over the same interval. legislation if they were able to convince several independents sitting in the Senate to vote with them. The federal government is apparently taking the Liberals' tactics seriously, with Finance Minister Michael Wilson warning the government might have to force a "showdown" with Liberal senators over, the, GST if the government is to maintain its credibility. Savings,easy access key student factors ABBOTSFORD - Past, present and future students of Fraser Valley College agree ... the university-college proposal would be a major breakthrough for them. And two reasons stand out in their minds: • Studying for a degree would be far cheaper in a valley-based university-college than it would at a Vancouver area university. * Ease of access. Students would avoid having to commute daily to and from the Vancouver area on a crowded freeway, or alternatively save the cost of renting accommodation at the coast. ..._.' In some cases, having a univeirsity-college in the area would make all the difference between getting a degree and having to forego it. Grant Kinsley of Mission, a former Fraser Valley College student now working on his fourth-year medical program, sees a university-college having no immediate value to himself. "But I can see it doing a lot for other people in the future - that is my interest," he said. Kinsley, age 24, is currently working for six weeks at MSA General Hospital, Abbotsford, as a medical student intern. Eventually, he wants to pursue a career in forensic pathology. He is a student in the University of British Columbia's faculty of medicine. He shares a 600 square ft., two-bedroom apartment in Vancouver, and it costs them $400 a month each. At UBC, he indicates, classes can be large - sometimes huge. Establishment of a university- college in the Valley would reduce the pressure at UBC and elsewhere, he pointed out. Kinsley went to Fraser Valley College where, in the mid-eighties, he took two years of science. He regards the faculty as accessible, and the quality of education high. His mother, father and brothers have all gone to Fraser Valley College, and we're all happy with it, he indicated.

Correction on quote DELTA - The Star wishes to correct a quote, published in the Oct. 25, 1990 issue. In a report from the special hearing called by David Anderson, commissioner regarding allegations that witnesses had been tampered with in testimony about natural gas exploration and storage, commission counsel Douglas Mac Adams actually said: "The only silence we had was the silence of the Friends of the Fraser Valley." The Star apologizes to MacAdams and Star readers for any misunderstanding which may have resulted from the prior incorrect quote. MacAdams has recommended that Anderson issue an interim report declaring there is no evidence of silencing witnesses and then proceed with the final commission report, expected sometime early in the new year. Spokesmen for the Friends of the Fraser Valley said they will call for an Ombudsman's investigation into the proceedings of the commission. The Friends have boycotted commission hearings since Sept. 4. governments are currently wrangling over which will pay how much for the land claims. The province has just agreed to participate in the land- claim discussions but has not committed itself to payout out any money for their settlements. B.C., which has the two- thirds of the outstanding land claims in Canada, is suffering the loss of millions of dollars in economic development, and investment because of the uncertainty over the land claims. Many businesses and investors say they will wait until the outcome of the negotiations before committing to B.C. Development From front zoning, which would allow him to construct a gas bar and use the existing septic tank and field. This type of zoning allows such development as general stores, nursery and farm feed stores, in areas considered rural. Friesen pointed out that such zoning is "directly across the street" in the case of Hamilton Farms, a produce retail outlet, and would not compromise the present planning for the area. "It's the best compromise,'.' agreed mayor Dave Kandal. Paz said he would like the chance to study council's suggestion. He will return to the Nov. 5 meeting to discuss the issue with councilors.

On Nov. 6, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives, and 34 of the 100 senate seats, are up for grabs. Members of the House face re-election every two years. The senate term is six years. American elections are a biennial, multi-million dollar extravaganza, even when there is no vacancy at the White House. Historically, turnout in the off year is low, not much more than one third. What makes the 1990 poll more significant than normal mid-term elections is the unusually high number, 36, of governors' races, many in the most populous states, where the office commands great influence and new national trends are tested. Washington's political pundits cannot remember when incumbents were so unpopular. Voter cynicism has been fuelled in part by some lawmakers' involvement, or at least acquiescence, in the collapse of the savings and loan industry, which has left the government with a bill of $500 billion. The unedifying spectacle of the recent budget negotiations when the House flunked its principal responsibility to set a viable budget, has added to general disgust with the men the Founding Fathers saw as the people's main representatives. However, so heavily are the odds stacked in favor of political incumbents - 98 percent of House members who sought another term two years ago were returned safely - that there are strict limits to any political deck-clearing in American politics. In these elections, for instance, one fifth of the 405 members of the House seeking re-election do not even face an opponent from a major party, and will canter home. A further 300 members face opponents who have raised $25,000 or less, a trifling sum in an age when regular television slots are an essential part of American politics. Only about 23 of the House races are considered close. The balance of power is unlikely to shift in either the Senate or the House, condemning President George Bush to a further two years of Democrat majorities. Evidence of the anti-incumbency mood can be seen in the recent vote in Oklahoma, where a measure to limit state legislators to a maximum of 12 years in office was resoundingly endorsed last month by referendum. Similar limits are under consideration in Massachusetts, Colorado and California, although any attempt to extend the principle to Congress would require a constitutional amendment. However, despite the dissatisfaction with politicians in general, Americans appear to retain a residual loyalty to their own representatives. Cynics ascribe this to the reluctance of Congressmen to vote in favor of any measure in Washington which might reduce their long-term employment prospects. But in contests all over the United States, scores of aspiring office-holders are deliberately presenting themselves as political outsiders. In Massachusetts, for instance, the Democrat running for the governorship left vacant by the now discredited Michael Dukakis has delib- eratly cultivated an image of reckless spontaneity. John Silber, president of Boston University, abandoned political etiquette by referring to the inhabitants of one black ghetto as a "bunch of addicts". As a rule of thumb, any national or state contender associated with high taxes is severely handicapped. Dukakis pulled out rather than face inevitable defeat because he increased state taxes. Voter intolerance of higher taxes will be played out in scores of contests. The Gulf has scarcely featured in the campaign. Bush's generally acclaimed handling of the Gulf crisis will marginally assist Republicans, but parochial issues will dominate. The contest attracting the greatest national interest is the governorship of California. With a populatioin of 30 million, the state is increasingly viewed as the key to either party's success in presidential or congressional elections. The Democrat, Dianne Feinstein, and Republican, Peter Wilson, are running neck and neck. The winner will have great influence in the redrawing of electoral boundaries When seven new seats are added to take account of the state's surging population. In the 1992 election, California will return 52 members of the House, more than 10 percent of the total. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Fall's in the air By MARIE JENSEN There is a time in fall When the air is still, the mist it drifts, for the sky to fill. Distant the fog but yet so near, enclosed in clouds and destined to clear. Approaching the end as it starts to rain, November is here it's winter again. Mouse that roared Editor, The Star, Sir, The mighty-mouth from High River (Joe Clark) wants to go to war to protect - the oil supply of the United States. The wastrels that they are, import half of their oil requirements - we are self sufficient. What's the (leal here? Why spend our tax dollars to send the armed forces to the Persian Gulf where we are not wanted or needed - while the American oil interests are sticking it to us with higher gas prices? So here's the offer - if Clark will let us use the Armed Forces to protect us from the American oil robber barons - then we can afford to pay our taxes in Canada instead of to the U.S. and maybe, just maybe we can reduce our national debt...well, I see they found another 8 billion dollars of debt in Ottawa so maybe we can't pay off the debt today - unless, of course, Ottawa stops wasting our money on these ill-advised ventures. P.S. Check the rerun of the video TV where Clark and Mulroney and some brass hat announced - Ward Clark was actually giggling - the man's mad - I'm angry. KEN BERG Aldergrove Equal treatment? Arresting Editor, The Star, Sir, I would like some clarification from B.C. Telephone in regards to the referendum. Will only the Aldergrove area be allowed to vote or will it be all 856-numbers including the Matsqui district? Also, I would like to to take great exception to the editorial of the Aldergrove Star, Oct. 18 in which councilor Ferguson implies this referendum is the greatest thing since Jesus Christ walked the earth. Far from it. Letters welcome The Aldergrove Star invites letters to the editor on topics of interest to the community. The letters-to-the-editor column is a chance for comment on what has been written in the paper. It is our readers' opportunity to respond to what newsmakers of the area have been saying. We especially encourage readers to write on topics of local interest, although letters which enlighten or stimulate thought are welcome. We ask that letters be free of libel and bear the name and address of the author. Submissions must include a written signature. We prefer letters to be typed and double spaced, and present the comment as clearly and briefly as possible/The editor reserves the right to condense or reject letters. In no way does this justify all his previous statements concerning the treatment of Aldergrove as one of second class citizens, and that we should be treated as equals and enjoy the same benefits as the rest of Langley. If the referendum passes we will still be held and treated as second class citizens, by the mere fact that we will still have to pay more than the rest of Langley. We now pay $117. basic and the rest of Langley pays $210. but under the new Aldergrove rate we will pay $243.60 per year. So how will this help Aldergrove exchange achieve political, social, and economical benefit? Most businesses use a toll free number or the fax-number so the businesses do not need any further forced increase. Those increases are absorbed by the consumer once again. No, councilor Ferguson, you still did not resolve the problem, it's still left a bad taste that only can be rectified when Aldergrove is truly united equally with the rest of Langley. As for myself I personally would save money, but one must look beyond the subject and look that others on fixed or low income cannot absorb forced increase. I will leave this up to the voters to decide. Gerald cuthbert Aldergrove Editor, The Star, Sir, Thank you for helping us to "arrest" cancer. Your particpation in our Jail-N-Bail event helped us raise $57,000 over the three days of the event. The monies raised will be allocated to cancer research, public education, and patient services. In Langley, the effects of cancer are eased for cancer patients through active programs such as Volunteer Driver, Emergency Aid, CanSurmount, Reach to Recovery, and Camp Good- times. Again, thank you for helping make our Jail-N-Bail such a tremendous success. GARRY MacDONALD Langley Life savers Editor, The Star, All of us at Langley Family Services, board, staff and volunteers would like the community to know how very proud we are of Patsy Elson, one of our staff people who helped to save the lives of an Aldergrove couple on October 13, 1990. Along with her friend Claudia Keam, who is to be equally commended, Patsy proved that Langley is a special community, Thank you for giving me this opportunity to commend these two special people.

The Aldergrove Premieres tied Delta 1-1 and Aldergrove Div. 1 East beat Witch of Ender 4-0, at Parkside. Albion suffers two losses ALDERGROVE - On Oct. 28, Div. 5A Albion playing at home to the Mission White- caps, ended up on the short end of a 3-2 score. Although the Albion team played well enough to win, their downfall proved to be two unfortunate own goals caused on deflections by the Albion defence. The Albion team lacked the cohesiveness they have shown in their last few games. Inaccurate passing coupled with players not holding their positions, made hard work of a game they were capable of controlling. On Sunday, Oct. 29 the Albions played away to top of the league Suurrey Youth Bears. The Albion team probably played their best game of the season. The 4-0 score for the Bears was not indicative of the play on the field. The Aldergrove team came out working hard, and got their passing game going creating some excellent chances in front of the Surrey net. The difference in the game was in the finishing of opportunities. Next game for Aldergrove Albions will be away to New Westminster Q.P.R. at Moody Park kick-off at 11:30 a.m. on Sat., Nov. 3. The Albion team are looking forward to the return of their billets from Bellvue, Washington and will have an exhibition game against them on Sunday, Nov. 4 at the Community Park in Aldergrove.

Only one of that division's two brigades is based in Germany. The other "* is stationed at Valcartier, Quebec, and must be airlifted in time of crisis. "We're naturally going to have to consider our fly-over commitment as things change, and we have to consider that as a real commitment, a commitment that we would be capable of doing." McKnight told Jane's Defence Weekly, the authoritative British military Journal. McKnight recently announced a 1,400 cut in the number of troops based .in Europe. THORNE NOMINATES CAMPEN Aldermanic candidate, Trudi Campen signed her nomination papers last week. Nominating her were June Willson and Terry Thorne, who has announced that he will be stepping down from his position as alderman at the end of the present term.

Mnt PASSPORT LANGLEY gBj&gj 530-2886 Mine going to court VANCOUVER - Quintette Coal Limited says it will ask the Supreme Court of Canada to overturn a British Columbia arbitration award that greatly reduced the price that the northeast B.C. coal producer may charge its Japanese customers. Company -officials says they are taking this action following a ruling by the B.C. Court of Appeal, which upheld the arbitration award that was handed down last May 28. Bruce McConkey, Quintette's chairman and chief executive officer, said under the ruling, the price that Quintette may now charge its customers, the Japanese steel industry, is $28.00 below the price that Quintette would have been permitted to charge under the terms of its long-term contracts. "The current price set by the arbitration panel has the effect of reducing Quintette's cash flow by $133-million per year and is well below the cost of producing and trans- portingt coal. This has forced Quintette to seek a reorganization of its business," McConkey said. He added that if the reorganization is to succeed, all parties involved in Quintette - and that includes the B.C. and federal governments, the railroad and port authorities, creditors and the Japanese steel industry - will have to provide the necessary cooperation.

Racing Commission Virginia Todd after her horse Fishing the Valley by Brian Lee and Roger Dornan rn^^L As predicted, the average size of coho coming into the Chilliwack Vedder has steadily increased with chrome-bright 14-, 15-, and 16-pounders showing up regularly. A 17-pound two-ounce lunker caught by Pat Ahem of Langley leads the way. Peach Road and Lickman Road areas yielded a fair number of these large northern cohos last week with roe and peach/green wool combinations seeming to be most effective. Dewdney Slough has come on strong with incoming tides. Try to be there about two hours before high tide. How do you know when high tide occurs? A good estimation is to add four hours to the time shown for tides at Point Atkinson, in the Vancouver Sun or Province. Spinners have been successful, but for shore-casting, both brass and chrome hammered firestrip crocodile spoons from 3/16 to 1/4 ounce have been the lure of choice. For the entire family, bait fishing with worms or roe has been surprisingly good in both the Dewdney and Sumas Sloughs. Water levels in the Chehalis have dropped again, but this is a sure bet right after the next good rain. The fourth annual Fraser Valley Coho Derby has five weeks left (until Nov. 30) so there's still time to weight several fish (up to 10) in for one of the many excellent prizes, topped off by a spanking new boat and trailer. See you on the river. Power and Glory N captured the $40,000 B.C. Pacing Classic. Time was 1:59.2. Cosy Xmas bazaar BELLINGHAM - The fifth annual Cozy Christmas Bazaar will be held on Friday, Nov. 16 from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. and on Saturday, Nov. 17 from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. The event is held at the Laurel Grange Hall on the Guide Meridian. You may reach the hall by taking the Lynden border and going south approximately 10 miles. The bazaar is very unique in that all the crafters' merchandise is intermingled and beautifully displayed like a boutique. ALDERGROVE - A local businessman has entered the November 17 election #for township council because he says council is doing nothing to stop crime in the township. Bert Vane, owner of Vane Tractor Services of Aldergrove says he will work to hire eight more RCMP officers if he is elected. Vane said he decided to run for council after three aldermen voted against an RCMP request for funding for communications equipment. "It's time some of these aldermen got off their ivory tower and realized we've got a crime problem here in this township. Voting against equipment for the police is voting for the crooks, as far as I'm concerned." Vane said the council should look to other areas to save money, such as cutting back on executive retreats, opinion polls, and management consultant's reports. "Until we have enough police to guarantee the safety of senior citizens and kids, I don't Want council spending another nickel on luxury items," said Vane. Vane points out that the township's spending on police and the number of actual police officers is very low in relation to other municipalities in the region. He points to a drop in the crime rate over the summer in Langley,,, tity after extra police were hired. "With eight more RCMP, we willliave twp more officers on Bert Vane each shift, said Vane. "It's a start." Bert Vane has lived in the township since 1979. He is married with three children. He has served as chairman of the Langley Community Health Education Committee, and he is currently a director on the education committee of Credo Christian Elementary School. He is a member of the Hospital Society, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Otter Co-op. We Specialize in Service From Beginner to Expert Largest Setaaion of Tackle in tbe Valley _■* ■ ' LOOWil .

Stafford, Saturday. The play went back and forth the entire game with both teams having their chances. One of the nicest passing plays seen this year set up the first goal of the game. Hawks' goalkeeper Jarris Neufeld threw the ball out to left back Sandy Brown who gave it to Garry Johnson. Johnson moved it up to left wing to Ryan Carey who took it down the wing before crossing into the middle to Bryan Dovey. Dovey put a nice through ball into the eighteen to Allen Quadling to bang home his first of two goals of the day. The teams traded chances throughout the rest of the game but a goal by Ryan Carey midway in the second half proved to be the winner. Quadling scored his second goal of the game just minutes before Langley scored their only goal as they pressed hard to equal. The win keeps Aldergrove in first place in Fraser Valley play by one point, just ahead of the Langley Raiders, and Newby Five over the Langley Dynamos. The Raiders kept pace with the Hawks by winning their game, Saturday, defeating Surrey Royals 3-0. The Hawks participated in last week's Washington Exhcange when they travelled to Bellvue. All the boys had a great time being billeted out which made for a different and interesting experience. They are looking forward to hosting the Bellvue Bobcats here at home on Nov. 4. The Hawks' parents would like to thank Ed and Rita Mazur for all their time and effort towards making the trip as smooth as it was. The Aldergrove Hawks' next game is at home, Nov. 3 with an 11:30 kickoff at Steele Park against the Surrey Royals.

If they aren't willing to quit to save their own lives, why don't they go outside to smoke, rather than force their helpless little children to inhale their toxins? Don't they know they're killing them? They may just as well shoot them, as awful as that sounds. Their lungs are black, just like their parents' lungs; they get smokers' coughs, and are usually asthmatic or just have a lot of allergies. These parents are unfit and have no right to be parents. It's in the papers every single day, and yet smoking parents don't seem to give a damn. They should be sterilized and have their children taken away from them until they can learn to put their selfishness behind them and show their kids that they love them enough to keep their little lungs healthy. Maybe it's because these people are illiterate or something. Perhaps they can't read or they're stupid and don't understand that lung cancer can result from second-hand smoke. Come on, smoking parents - go outside to smoke or QUITl P.S.: Smokers: Go ahead and ask your doctor if you don't believe me I Signed: Hates smoke. Dear Hates smoke. No one could have said that better. Thanks for your letter, even though I have had it for some time. Because of a hectic year I put it in a safe place and promptly forgot where it was. Now I should think about a memory therapist. If I can remember... Dear Annabelle, Our one walnut tree has produced many walnuts this year. My problem is what to do with them? Can anyone out there help me with some recipes? I'll try anything. My husband won't let me throw them away. Signed: From the nut house. Dear From, I can only ask any readers with walnut recipes to forward them to the Star office and I will print them. Keep reading and good luck.

The member-owned Credit Union purchased Aldergrove Insurance Services Ltd. in 1989, and it has now moved into the 272 Street branch, offering one-stop shopping for those requiring different types of insurance. This insurance office offers the usual Autoplan, farm and .homeowners' policies, and also specializes in livestock and bloodline insurance. As well as a banking machine, which interacts with all cards, the Credit Union has opened a drive-through window teller service. A "human" teller gives the public the option of doing their banking without getting out of the car. This is certain to be welcomed by its handicapped and senior customers. Neil Ranson, general manager of both the 272 Street and 248 Street branches since September of 1987, is justifiably proud of these developments. He points out that the 25 employees of the 272 Street branch, all local people, have been added to with the addition of five employees -- two at Aldergrove Insurance and three at the Credit Union. The Aldergrove Insurance hours match the Credit Union hours; open six days a week, and until 6 p.m. Fridays. Shelley Gould has",, been branch manager for the past eight years, and together with Ranson makes the corporate decisions required of the largest financial institution existing in Aldergrove. As it is member-owned, there is no welcome enquiries about its services from people who are new to the community. Call Ranson or Gould if you are interested in finding out what the Credit Union can offer your family or business. "head office", and the elected board sets the direction for the Credit Union. Local ownership means its members - sharebolders - keep its profits in Aldergrove, and annual dividends have been provided to its members every year without fail since its incorporation in 1954. As a Credit Union, it has credit policies and lower costs. for its members, unlike any other banking institution. It's part of the Credit Union success story here, as there are more Credit Unions in the Fraser Valley than anywhere else. The branch will host a "grand opening" later this month, but in the meantime Aldergrove Credit Union general manager Neil Ranson and the new look of the 272 Street branch. is pleased to announce the opening of our new 272 Street offices, Nov. 5, with three new services to our members Aldergrove Insurance] Services Ltd.

Michael Caine plays "Mr. Destiny" a kind of immortal man with a point to make - and his point is well taken. I enjoyed this movie and I hope people really listen to what this movie is saying and that is: be happy with what you do have - right here and now because that's the way it is - you should realize the good things in your life, and not always say, ''if only " There were some really neat special effects and camera work, and it was an enjoyable film. There were no dull spots, and it was actually quite funny in a lot of areas. All in all, I think it is a great family show. And hopefully we will all catch the drift. On a scale from 1 to 10, I rate it an 8 for family entertainment.

These students graduated in June, 1990, from Aldergrove Secondary, D.W. Poppy Secondary, Langley Secondary, Brookswood Secondary, and R.E. Mountain Secondary. Langley graduates won 24 Provincial Scholarships provided by the Provincial government for those students who scored over 1700 points on three scholarship exams written in June. Langley Secondary students won 8, Brookswood Secondary 5, Poppy Secondary 5, Aldergrove Secondary 4, and Mountain Secondary 2.. In addition, students who specialize in fine arts, busi- education, technology, industrial education, etc., won 13 scholarships worth $500 plus another $500 when the students enrol in a post-secondary institution. Graduates also won major awards from universities and colleges across the country. The local Langley Scholarship committee has the job of screening applicants from each secondary school to ensure that graduates meet the standards and criteria set by the various donors of the local awards. The scholarship counsellors from the high schools put in many hours preparing the students, helping them with applications, and serving on the Langley Scholarship Committee. The counsellors for this year were Chris Arcari (LSS), Bill Singer (ASS), Bert Ponti and Don Urquhart (MSS), Molly Payne (DWP), and Harold Krische (BSS). The local donors, which include businesses, parents groups, service clubs, the Langley Teachers Association, private donors, CUPE locals, political and work associations and memorial awards and trusts set up by individuals, clubs and families, are to be commended for their contributions over the past 34 years. Many groups have increased the amounts that they donated this year because they realize the greatly-increased costs of attending post secondary institutions. Without the support of all these groups, many of our students would not be able to continue with their education. The following students and donors will be recognized at the school awards evenings. The public is invited to attend. The time is 7:30 p.m. Thursday, October 25 - Mountain Secondary; Tuesday October 30 - Brookswood Secondary; Thursday, November 1 - Langley Secondary; Tuesday, November 6 - Aldergrove Secondary; Thursday, November 8 - D.W.

Horses and their caretakers are seen briefly "warming up" for their race and are seen even more briefly during the race itself. It's over in two minutes and winners and losers quickly leave the track to be replaced by horses for the next race. To take the mystery out of what goes on behind the scenes, Cloverdale Raceway in conjunction with the B.C. Standardbred Association invites long time race fans and novices to join a special. tour of this community.

MOVIE REVIEW Horribly humourous By LARA BRODIE Poor Kirsty Alley, she seems to, have this horribly humourous ability to get herself in the most amazing situations. Her latest antics in her latest film, SIBLING RIVALRY, is absolutely no exception. Except, in comparison with her big bomb, Mad House, this one was ever so brilliantly entertaining. The dialogue was sharp and tangy and actually the entire premise of the movie had this "border on realism effect" combined with the contradictory "not in real life" flavor that had the audience hick-uping with laughter. What I found thrilling was that the actions weren't exaggerated, and they didn't need to be. It was as though there was enough confidence in the script that the actors didn't find themselves having to plummet over that edge in order to present the humour in the situation. And the cast was truly remarkable, as well as Alley, there was also Scott Bakula from Quantum Leap, Ed O'Neil from Married...with children," Sarnie Gertz and Princess Leia herself, Carrie Fisher. Then there was also the man who played Alley's accomplice of sorts, his name eludes me now, but watch for him, especially in the fake suicide scene.

The trees have suddenly begun to turn colour and it seems that it was summer just yesterday. Some of nature's best kept secrets show themselves this time of year by rewarding us with either berries or fall colour just when all the other plants it seems are finishing for the year. The fall colour of the Red Sunset maples this time of year is spectacular along with the showy foliage of the oak family of which numerous varieties do exceptionally well here in the valley. The oaks not only have beautiful fall colour but they also hold their leaves well into next spring so as to give some foliage throughout the winter. The dogwoods also have exceptional colour this time of year and I must admit that although I am not a dogwood fan most of the time I do find that their fall colour is probably their best quality. The Chinese dogwood (cornus kousa) or the new Eddi's White Wonder dogwood have brilliant red hues this time of year and are worthy of a spot in any garden. Although the red Japanese maples are generally the most sought after, the green Japanese maple cultivar "Osakasuki" is one of the nicest foliage plants at this time of year as it will soon be turning a fire engine red with the coming frosts. The euonymus (winged burning bush) is another great shrub for red fall foliage as is the viburnum plicatum summer snowflake, the Virginia creeper vine, even blueberries will give you beautiful fall red foliage along with their tasty summer fruit. Foliage colour is not the only ara where nature shows its stuff this time of year s there is a wide variety of decorative fruits that are also very showy this time of year. The pyra- canthas and cotoneasters are just loaded with fruit this time of year and they not only give added colour to our fall gardens but they also help to feed the birds later on. The flowering crabapples also are very showy this time of year as many varieties have both bright red and orange fall foliage colour but they come alive in the fall as the ornamental fruit begins to colour up to beautiful shades of yellow through orange which will persist in most cases throughout the winter. Beauty berry (calicarpa) is almost unknown to most people but it should be seen to be believed for at this time ojf year the long green leaves begin to shed from these bushy plants leaving behind the bare stems covered with bright flourescent pink berries Which become more and more pronounced as the temperatures become cooler. It always amazes me how these plants will sit all season long in a garden centre for sale with no interest in them whatsoever and then as soon as the leaves drop in the fall they almost immediately disappear. They are great for not only fall colour but for flower arrangements in which they are outstanding. This fall while in the midst of raking leaves and cleaning up the flowerbeds, relax and take some time to enjoy all the show and colour mother nature has on display for us right now. P.S. Now's the time to plant out your winter pansies, forget me nots, wallflowers and spring flowering bulbs as the days are cooler and there is still lots of time left for planting before the cold winter rains set it. Until next week, HAPPY GARDENING. If you have any questions, please direct them to Garden Column, c-o The Aldergrove Star.

Dealer License No. 6225 DRUG WOES THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 15 Local solutions still the best way out By SYLVIA LANGMANN ALDERGROVE - Substance abusers asking for help are making an act of courage and the response must be immediate. Unfortunately, there is not enough support available and very few rehabilitation centres. The preventative measure of early education in the primary schools is a positive approach to an ugly problem that is creeping swiftly into our own neighborhood. Government must recognize that there is a tremendous need to establish more treatment, centres. Small rehabilitation centres in each municipality would be more effective than one large one downtown. Six years ago, the M.S.A. Halfway House Society recognised a need to serve women. Peardonville house, large enough for eighteen resident patients, 19 years and older, is the only treatment centre offering help' in the province. The women stay for thirty-five days and with a long waiting list, the beds are never empty. Addiction is never cured. It remains dormant for the rest of one's life, but kept in remission one can overcome the desire. It is easy to say no, when one knows the rewards for being substance- free. . One drug addict said that "Being normal was like breathing fresh air for the first time, and it felt high just being clear-headed. It became the best high I ever had." Recovery is about change and taking the responsibility for the changes. Peardonville House is a life saver for those women who've made a plea for help. The women who come here have many issues in their lives and the first is to take away their addiciton. Recovery is progressive. Women of all lifestyles come together, yet the stories are similar. Many have suffered abuse and all arrive with a low self-esteem. No one is judgmental, they've all been there, and the grow ing friendship for each other is supportive and continues after the women have left. One lady has returned every week for five years to encourage and generate enthusiasm for success at the meetings held for those who've been through the treatment. The program is to achieve bringing the. patient to the early first stages of a cure. Patients are made aware of the dozens of resources available in the community to help support new lifestyles. Taking the responsibility to change is supported by new friends from the center who are there if you need them. Two full time counsellors and a pro gram co-ordinator, cook, secretary and evening house mother plus two caretakers are employed. Peardonville House and Kinghaven for men, now in its eighteenth year, is a non profit organization now leading the Alcohol and Drug programs. Tremendous support is offered by the west Abbotsford Mennonite Church to the M.S.A. Halfway House Society. "Impact" is an out-patient day program for adolescents with substance abuse problems. The house was donated by Matsqui and is at 33171 Bevan in Abbotsford.

VALLEY RADIO CFVR/850 16 THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 DRUGS: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WHAT IS A DRUG? Scientists define a drug as any substance, other than food, which is taken to change the way the body or the mind functions. Drugs may or may not come from doctors or drug stores. They may or may not have medicinal properties or purposes. Drugs can come from plants growing wild in fields; or they can be manufactured in labs. They can be legal or illegal. They can be helpful or harmful. By this definition penicillin is a drug and heroin is a drug. Even toothpastes that contain fluoride and deodorants that contain anti- perspirants are drugs. So long as a substance changes the way the body or the mind functions in some '"'tty, then it is a drug. Mood-altering drugs - also called psychoactive (sy-ko-active) drugs - are drugs that can change or affect the way a person thinks, feels, or acts. These drugs usually have physical effects as well, but the thing that sets them apart from other drugs is that they work on the mind and the senses.. The word "psychoactive" literally means working (active) on the mind or behaviour (psycho). Because of their mood-altering properties, psychoactive drugs are the most abused of all drugs. Drug abuse is any use of a drug that causes a problem (apart from some undesirable but una-. voidable side effects of certain medically used drugs). Drug abuse can result in health problems like increased illness and physical damage to the body. Drug abuse can result in personal problems such as loss of motivation, or addiction. Drug abuse can result in group problems like strained and unhappy family relationships. Drug abuse can result in social problems like increased crime, as well as economic problems and traffic accidents. Drug abuse is not limited to the illicit drugs like heroin, cannabis, or cocaine. Any drug can be abused, intentionally or unintentionally. WHO USES DRUGS? Drug users have similar characteristics, but anyone can become one. Drug users come from all parts of the country and all walks of life. They can be rich or poor, young or old, male or female, intelligent or unintelligent, well educated or poorly educated. Different people use different drugs for different reasons. The reasons can vary from drug to drug, from person to person, from occasion to occasion. A person may have more than one reason. People may start using a drug for one reason (curiosity, pleasure, social pressures, or for medical reasons) and may continue using it for quite another (like psychological dependence or group pressures). Drugs are talked and written about a lot these days. They are frequent topics of conversation. Some people may have friends or acquaintances who use drugs. Since curiosity is a natural aspect of human behaviour, it's not surprising that many people, especially young people, are tempted to experiment with drugs. Some people use psychoactive drugs to relieve various emotional problems, such as anger, stress, anxiety, boredom or depression. Insecure people may take drugs to boost their self- confidence. Some young people may use drugs as an expression of alienation or rebellion. The social pressures to use drugs can be very strong. Young people may be influenced by popular songs glorifying drugs or by famous singers, musicians, or athletes who are known to use drugs. Children are especially influenced by their parents, whose casual use of alcohol, nicotine, and other drugs sometimes makes drug taking seem normal, safe, or even justifiable. 2431 CLEARBROOK RD . OR. . SEVENOAKS Among young Canadians, boys and girls smoke, on average, the same amount. In recent years, teenage girls are more likely than boys to report that they are regular smokers. According to the most recent student surveys undertaken in Ontario by the Addiction Research Foundation, boys more frequently report use of cannabis and cocaine as well as prescription barbiturates. Older students are more likely to use drugs than younger students. However, young children are more likely to sniff glue or use other inhalants than are older teenagers. WHAT IS DEPENDENCE? Physical dependence occurs when a drug user's body becomes so accustomed to a particular drug that it can only function normally if the drug is present. Without the drug, the user may experience a variety of symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to convulsions. These symptoms, some of which can be fatal, are collectively referred to as "withdrawal". Not all drugs produce physical dependence, but they may still be abused because of their perceived effects, and as a result of psychological dependence. Physical dependence is one of the factors contributing to the continued use of drugs. Psychological dependence exists when a drug is so central to a person's thoughts, emotions, and activities that it is extremely difficult to stop using it, or even stop thinking about it. Like physical dependence, psychological dependence is a cause of continued drug use. All psychoactive drugs can reduce physical coordination, distort the senses, or impair judgment. These effects can lead to serious safety risks, especially if the user drives a vehicle or operates machinery. QUALIFIED OPTICIANS DESIGNER FRAMES GLASSES FRAMES REPAIRS Eye Examinations arranged.

Hash and marijuana and its derivatives are a gateway drug to hard core drugs. The kids today are using everything. Many experiment with whatever is available. Linda Fisher, co-ordinator of Impact advises, "The most important thing is to love unconditionally. Learn to love who they are as individuals. However, it is of primary importance to set limits and boundaries. Communication is healthy and teenagers' needs must be looked at. They must understand that getting high is not an acceptable way to live."

Milt Walker, program coordinator of Peardonville House supports a preventative program that talks openly in the schools. He cautions parents to be aware,' there is no immune system and no boundaries, but by educating the young people of the danger, it is part of the solution. Walker adds that teenagers must be made to feel that their opinions count. A need for them to have a place to go and to ask them what they want, and not to give them what we think they want. Give them the ball to run with it. If we make our kids feel futile and unimportant they will turn to something to make them feel better. Consult with our teenagers, they are viable contributors.

PRVC AWARENESS WEEK NOVEMBER Province of British Columbia - • ■■■ .II 18 THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 Lottery preoccupies minds Hospital auxiliary bazaar By MAUDIE MacPHERSON ALDERGROVE - Everywhere we went, people were lined up to buy lottery tickets; some sallied up with as much and perhaps more than $50 to spend. Later in the day I was in conversation with worried people over the recession and impending depression on which we are bordering. Somehow it made me think of the difference in the depression I went through in the 30's and this one where so many have had so much I got thinking of how I worked one whole month teaching school to be paid $50. (I have the cancelled cheque to prove it). Now $50 is like play money in comparison. It's not that I would like to go back to the 30's but somehow I feel this generation will have a much harder time accepting a depression. The General Meeting of the OAPO will be held Friday, Nov. 2 at 1:30 p.m. in the hall. Guest speaker will be Dan Peterson, MLA. Hope we will have a good turnout. The Regional Meeting on Wed. Oct. 24 in Matsqui was well attended. Matsqui branch are excited over their new location and if all goes well are planning to host the Fraser Valley Regional picnic this summer. Some information was given on attempts to deal with Seniors Abuse. Must congratulate Matsqui branch for hosting a good meeting. Their delicious lunch and "Welcome Cake" finished off the afternoon. The Choral Group entertained at Canada Way Lodge in Burnaby last Tuesday. It was an excellent audience and compliments were flying. One lady went so far as to say in her opinion Aldergrove gave the best performance of any group who visits their lodge. I told her I would convey the message to our leader and I was sure it would be a shot in the arm for our group. The Elks celebrated four birthdays this past week with a party of around fifty participating. Ted Penzer who is ninety-eight was one of the honored guests. Mr. Penzer is an old timer in this area and I'm sure many of our seniors are well acquainted with him. Dances this week were well attended. Wednesday night, forty-nine were out for a night of fun and exercise. The Westemaires with Alma Townsend and Charlie Prest along with another couple provided the music. 50-50 went to Ray Lemox and Margaret McCullough. Spot dance was won by Thelma Brunskill and her partner Jack. Peter and the Happy Gang will play at the Hallowe'en dance, Wed. Oct. 31. Saturday's dance was very good, ninety-four were there and again the Westemaires played lively music. Visitors were Chris Barker, Jean Sharpe and Russ Smith all from White Rock. Door prizes went to Doris Nelson and Florence Mehden. 50-50 was won by Irene Rassmussen and Wilmer Sanderson. Gladys & Bill Harper celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary. The Anniversary Waltz was played to honor them and Charlie sang 'I Love You Truly". Spot dances were won by Elsie Wild and Dick Lockhart and Edna White and Wilf Hayes. Hallowe'en came a little premature with the appearance of a bridal couple resplendent in their beautiful wedding attire. The carpet bowlers were in good spirits at Thursday's session and lots of good shots were made. Three carpets were used. A good evening of cards Thurs. Oct. 25, eight tables were filled at the whist party in the OAP hall. Let's double it for the November game, Nov. 29. Hope to get bridge news next week and also find out what goes at the Art club. This is it for Seniors News. . "I imagine the fellow who won the lottery has money to burn and his wife is a perfect match."

THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 19 development is the only solution VICTORIA - The speed and ferocity with which pressures to clean up and protect the environment arose sent many businessmen, including farmers, reeling. Environmentalists are insisting that all future economic development must be "sustainable." It's easy to see why ... • Each year another six million hectares of productive dryland turns into worthless desert. More than 11 million hectares of forests are destroyed yearly. • Surveying the globe, it appears that economists' "80-20 rule" applies equally well to environmental degradation. 20% of the world's people are responsible for 80 percent of the problem. (That's us.) Most of the pollution problems which threaten the survival of the planet originate directly or indirectly in developed countries - Canada, United States, Europe, Japan. Devel oping countries haven't had a huge impact -- yet. • Although total world cereal production has more than kept pace with population growth, rising from 700 million tonnes in 1950 to 1.8 billion tonnes in the mid-1980s, the methods used are. unsustainable. Chemical fertilizer usage increased ninefold, pesticide and agri-chemical use rose 32-fold, the amount of land under irrigation doubled, and new seed varieties were introduced. The ability of technology to increase production, however, is bottoming out. And some of the modern technologies introduced since mid-century have yielded disastrous consequences. The use of fertilizers and agri-chemicals masked the declining fertility of the soil. The improper handling and application of pesticides results in 400,000 poisonings and 10,000 deaths per year.

VALLEY RADIO CFVR/850 CABLE FM 8H,^ ____________________■ 20 THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 Facts about energy efficiency MAJOR APPLIANCES The appliance that suits your needs best, and has the lowest EnerGuide rating, is the one to buy. The EnerGuide number shows the typical monthly kilowatt- hour consumption. By comparing EnerGuide numbers on several models, you will see how much energy land money) you can save over the life of a particular appliance. EnerGuide labels are on stoves, fridges, freezers, washers, dryers and dishwashers. Microwave ovens Microwave ovens — when used for convenience foods or other foods with short cooking times — need less power than conventional ranges, because none is wasted on preheating the oven, the utensils or the surrounding air. _ Using the recommended cooking times, keeping the oven clean, and defrosting foods slowly in the refrigerator rather than in your microwave are other ways you can cut energy costs. WATER HEATING This is the second largest energy user in your home, representing about 20% of your energy bill. For most homes, a setting of 54C (130FI to 60CII40F) is adequate. Front-loading washers are more energy-efficient than top-loading units because they use only about half the hot water. Most clothes come clean, and use half the hot water, with a warm water wash. You'll find that economical cold water rinsing (which prevents wrinkling in synthetics and blends) works just as well for other types of laundry loads. Careful use and regular servicing can all add to the life of your washer and dryer. Adjustable water level controls let you save energy too by extending your hot water supply. Insulating your hot water pipes will help prevent energy-wasting heat losses. u§ [#] CLOTHESDRYER FREEZERS Chest type freezers are more efficient than uprights because the heavier cold air stays inside when the lid is opened. Check the EnerGuide label before you buy. and choose a magnetic airtight seal for energy efficiency. Put your freezer in a level, dry, cool, well- ventilated area. Defrost it when frost build-up is more than 0.5cm I .T). Temperature should be set at -I8C (OF). Arrange items loosely until they are frozen, then repack them more tightly. Today's refrigerators and freezers use much less energy, thanks to improved motors, insulation, door seals and redesign of cooling elements. A typical EnerGuide rating to look for would be 85 kW.h/month for a 480L (17-cubic-foot) frost-free refrigerator. Help them keep cool Positioning your refrigerator or freezer away from heat sources such as the range, dishwasher or direct sunlight will increase its energy efficiency. So will cleaning condenser coils twice a year and checking that doors fit tightly. Having the refrigerator temperature set correctly saves money too. This is generally 4°C, with the freezer section set at -18°C. Defrosting manual appliances when the ice thickness reaches half a centimetre (a little less than the width of a pencil) will also help them function efficiently. An uncrowded refrigerator works more efficiently than a crowded one. Conversely, freezers work more efficiently when they're nearly full. 4*) SMALL APPLIANCES Appliances such as microwave and toasler ovens, electric kettles, grills, toasters and electric frying pans often do a job more quickly and efficiently than an electric range. Some also double as serving dishes, cutting down on dishwashing. WATERBEDS Waterbed heaters are in use a lot of the time, so keep the bedspread in place to provide insulation which keeps the heal in. HOME ENTERTAINMENT The television, radio, computer and stereo all use power, so it's a good idea to turn them off when you leave a room for a while. Install your dryer where there is easy access to fresh, dry air and vent it to the outdoors. Recirculating humid air and overloading the dryer will extend drying lime and increase energy consumption. Dry lightweight items together to reduce drying time. Remember to clean the lint filter after every load. Pruning overgrown shrubs or plants that are blocking the dryer - ent outlet will also increase the appliance's effici'.ncy. Power Smart water heating Today's energy-efficient water heaters save up to 25% over older models. But many electric heaters — whatever their age — can benefit from Power Smart measures. New faucet washers for dripping hot water taps and shower attachments to control flow are just two easy ways you can get more hot water for your dollar. If you are building or renovating, short pipes from the heater to the faucet will reduce heat loss. Big tarings on spat, pools, hot tubt An insulated cover will reduce evaporation and heat loss. You can save about $200 a year by using a timer for your hot tub or spa and running the pump 6 to 8 hours a day instead of ail the time. Natural gas is the most economical and fastest way to heat your pool or spa. Again, your local gas utility will have details. I LIGHTING The regular incandescent light bulb isn't a very efficient light source. Consider alternatives. For example, a 34-watt fluorescent "lube delivers 4 - 5 times as much light as an incandescent bulb of the same wattage and lasts up to 10 times longer. Fluorescent tubes are excellent where general overhead lighting is needed. For decorative lighting and some floor and table lamps, consider the new compact fluorescent lamps that give warm and appealing light for about a quarter of the energy cost. They last up to 10 times longer and fit most normal sockets. These new light sources are somewhat more expensive to buy but are substantially cheaper to operate and last much longer than regular lamps. ' Different types of switches and controls make it easy to create the right atmosphere, with convenience and economy too. Three-way switches, usually installed at entrances to rooms, stairways and hallways, let you switch lights on and off from more than one location. Dimmer switches vary the light level to create a mood while saving energy. Both lamp socket and wall varieties are available. High-low switches offer energy efficiency too, with three settings for full brightness, on., third brightness, and "off." They can replace ordinary wall switches. NOW OPEN!!

The "Tropistove" designed by Fred and Peggy Francis of Victoria is a low-tech substitute for traditional methods of cooking and boiling water in the world's developing countries. "Usually U's the three-stone method", Fred Francis says. "You have your pot with some rice and some vegetables and some meat • if you're lucky - and you rest it on some stones over a wood fire." The traditional approach wastes a lot of wood - the United Nations estimates that more than two billion cubic metres of wood are burned for fuel every year. The practice has also contributed to the depletion of forests - in some Third World countries, people must spend whole days scrounging for the sticks and twigs they need to build a fire. The Francises have applied the lessons they learned as designers of popular fireplace and stove designs to developing an easy to manufacture stove that burns plant roots instead of wood. Their "Tropistove" is a simple metal box less than half a square metre in size, with a smokestack at the back and a hole in the top for the cooking pot. It uses its compact shape to hold the cooking fuel together and force the flames over the pot for a better burn.

"And it'll keep it boiling for three- quarters of an hour on another two pounds." The stove top and front can be made out of scrap steel, barrel drums and old cars - the walls and floor from sand, earth, mud, clay or adobe. The Tropistove is designed to use a unique fuel - a type of tropical weed or "root fuel" with the impressive name of "Cucerbita Foetidiss- ima." U.S. researchers have discovered the root of the plant can be dried in the sun to make an excellent, slow- burning fuel. "It belongs to the squash or the melon family," Fred Francis explains.

The volunteer labor helped the budget go further and provide more for the residents. Awesome adventure starts with science OTTAWA - Children will explore underwater worlds, follow the footsteps of dinosaurs, and take off in "awesome" space adventures with support from the Science Culture Canada program. Funding for 37 proposals worth almost $2 million was announced October 9 by William Winegard, minister for science. "Science is an adventure," said Dr. Winegard. "It is an adventure of discovery and understanding. "Science helps us explore the world we live in - from the smallest cell to the farthest star - and that is really exciting!" Projects funded in the recent competition include "Messages in Stone" - a new film about the life and death of dinosaurs based in part on Canadian fossil research. The > film will use 3-D animation to bring dinosaurs to life and follow them on a 400-mile journey to a summer feeding range in central Alberta. At the Newfoundland Freshwater Resource Centre in St. John's visitors can view marine life from a new perspective. Along with interactive exhibits, a discovery room and wet lab, the centre features a world class flu- t * varium with an under-the- stream viewing window. At the centre Aerospace Amateur in Rosmere, Quebec, children can "live the space adventure" while learning about the science and engineering involved in space exploration. The centre places special emphasis on Canada's role in space. While children experience "simulated space adventures, Lydia Dotto will be writing in her new book, "The Astronauts, How Canadians Will Work hazards LANGLEY - A7 seminar on workplace hazardous materials information system will be held at Langley Conference .Centre, Nov. 22. It is presented by Lane Consulting Group. For information, call 525*1800. Live and Work in Space." In addition, Quebec's science pioneers will_come to life in a book about the people and events that have shaped the history of science in the province. Publishers at Greey de Pencier also have a new book in the works for children. Using an innovative approach "Science Live" will not only profile Canadian Scientists, but will suggest activities children can do themselves which relate to the scientists own work. Written by Jay Ingram, the book is scheduled for release in 1992. Role models are an important theme of many of the projects supported in this Science Culture Canada competition. Several projects were funded in which students get a chance to meet real scientists and learn about their work in a "hands on" environment. "Women in Science at Trent", for example, is designed to dispel myths and show young people that science offers great opportunities for both men and women. "Too many of our young people still think science is boring and see all scientists as nerds in lab coats," said Winegard. "Projects like these show kids what science is really like. "They can see for themselves that scientists come in all shapes and sizes and may wear a wet suit or a flight suit as often as a lab coat. These projects show young women that there's a future for them in science too. Enthusiasm is the best evidence of all," added Winegard. "Once you've come face-to- face with scientists who really care about what they do, old ideas can't help hut change." Science Culture Canada is a federal program that funds projects and activities designed to make Canadians more aware of science and technology and their importance to our way of life.

THE ALDERGROVE STAR, NOVEMBER 1, 1990 23 By CHUCK WEBB Do you know how much you are worth - what you own and what you owe? The answers might shock or delight you, but you do need those answers before you can improve your financial situation. To kick off a new .series of columns to help you get more for - and from - your money, I'd like to offer you a free Personal Financial Facts Worksheet so you can find out what you are worth the easy way. For your worksheet write to Chuck Webb- Financial Worksheet, Suite 110, 20644 Eastleigh Cres., Langley, B.C. V3A 4C4. Everybody should have a personal financial plan. That plan can be a simple one-page summary of steps to take, or a 50-page plan with perhaps another 50 pages of computer projections. The important thing is to get started. And that first step involves making a list of your assets - what you own - and your liablilities - what you owe. Once you have that information, then you can move to increase your assets and decrease your liabilities in the most effective ways. So many of us spend so much time earning money (often for somebody else I) that we devote far too little time to managing that money for ourselves. Developing a financial plan leads to developing more control over your entire life. And as you increase your net worth, you also increase your self-esteem. To help you improve that all-important bottom line (your net worth) I'll be providing various strategies - guidelines, tips, planning ideas - in this column in the weeks ahead. The next column will show you how to gather the financial facts you need to get started. So write for your Financial Worksheet now, as it will form part of this exercise. Future columns will include topics like: - Developing a budget; the importance of record-keeping ana cash flow management. - How to reduce both debt costs and debt itself. - Managing your cash rather than allowing it to manage you. • Letting your lifestyle drive your investment approach. - Your last letter: draw up, finish or revise your will. - Guaranteeing your family's income should you be called out! - My own experience with disability insurance: are all policies the same? - RRSPs: a good deal for you? And if so, which are the best? - What does income-splitting have to do with you, your spouse and even your children? - Claiming every possible tax deduction and credit: help Ottawa help you save money. - Build your retirement nest e?_4__!.v.,»«iX'-'i''«'»UJ,'"l"J'i1' - Let your business pay your Ishtar gets Royal Purple support CHUCK WEBB, BA bills for you. - Invest in a tax-efficient way. - The gift of learning: how to fund education costs. - Charitable giving. I will deal with other financial topics as they arise. And feel free to write to me with your suggestions and questions. CHUCK WEBB is a retirement income planning specialist with The Rogers Group, a Vancouver based financial advisory & benefit consultants firm. Chuck's base of operation in the Fraser Valley is Langley. ALDERGROVE - At a recent meeting, ladies from Ishtar Transition House in Langley and Abbotsford Transition Housing Society came to speak about their work with battered women and their children. Trie ladies of the Royal Purple were pleased to present each group with a substantial cheque to help them carry on their work of fixing up their houses to make them more comfortable for the families who have to use them in time of trouble. This past week a carload of ladies attended Langley Lodge's past honored Royal Ladies night and had an enjoyable evening with visitors from lodges throughout the valley. Aldergrove Royal Purple ladies were pleased to have District Deputy Jane Yeats visit and give some important information on upcoming activities and responsibilities within the lodges. She will be returning for the next meeting on Nov. 8 for her official visit. A representative from the lodge will be . attending awards night Nov. 6 at Aldergrove Secondary School to present two citizenship awards. -The ladies are busy prepar ing for their flea market, bake sale, etc. which will be held Nov. 10, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. in the Elks Hall, 27309 Fraser Hwy.

Single mothers' housing network to meet here LANGLEY - The Single Mothers Housing Network, which has been operating a homesharing program for single mothers throughout .the Lower Mainland since September, 1986, recently launched a new outreach program designed to make its services more accessible to women outside the Vancouver-Richmond areas. With rents escalating far faster than wages and government subsidies, many single mothers are finding home- sharing an appealing option for economic as well as companionship reasons. The Langley-Aldergrove- Cloverdale areas are to be the next focus of the Outreach Program. A registry meeting for single mothers in these areas who are considering homesharing as a housing option will be held on Wednesday evening, Nov. 14 from 6:30 to 8:30 at Langley Family Services, 5339 - 207 St. Child care will be available.

Ceramics are replacing metals in many engineering applications and show great promise in a new generation of car engines which can run at higher temperatures and, therefore, be more fuel efficient. But brittleness remains a problem and overcoming this has proved expensive. Research has shown how to increase their toughness ■ 100-fold. Paradoxically, the new method makes ceramics tougher by introducing weaknesses. Widespread use of ceramics may emerge thanks to the breakthrough, reported in Nature magazine, of a team from ICI's Advanced Materials Laboratory in Runcorn, England. They describe a cheap and simple method of making a tough composite by mimicking mother of pearl. Ceramics are brittle because cracks grow quickly through them. Dr. Bill Clegg, one of the team, said they had found an inexpensive way to introduce weaknesses into a silicon carbide ceramic to deflect crack growth. • They fashioned a powdered form of the ceramic into thin sheets which were coated with graphite and pressed together. The graphite provides a weak interface between the layers and the resulting material has a structure analogous to that of plywood and mother of pearl, which use thin layers of wood and polymer, respectively, to deflect cracks. ELECTRIC CARS TO FIGHT SMOG California, which has the strictest air-quality rules in the U.S., has approved tough new standards aimed at carrying its war on smog into the next century by putting millions of electric and other alternative-fuelled cars on the roads. The regulations will have wide implications for motorists and car manufacturers and oil companies, and will have an immense impact on the type of vehicles and fuel sold in California. By 1998, two percent of all new cars sold in the state, an estimated 40,000 must be electrically powered, and 10 percent by 2003. In addition, far greater numbers of cars powered by cleaner burning methanol, ethanol or compressed natural gas are expected to be running because it is believed only those fuels can comply with the new standards. Exhaust emissions will be halved in 1994 and over the next five years, the standards will progressively tighten until every new car sold will be from 70 to 100 percent less polluting than cars produced in 1994. CARBON LUBRICANT OF FUTURE A hew form of carbon has been produced by scientists in Britain, Germany and America which could lead to a new generation of lubricants. The carbon atoms are arranged in spherical molecules to give a pattern similar to the panels of a leather soccer ball. Solid carbon is found in several forms. As graphite, it is used in pencils and as a lubricant. As a diamond, it is hard enough to cut glass. A new range of uses may be in prospect with the production of a third form of carbon - Buck mins terfullerer ene. It is striking that scientists have only now found this new form of carbon, given its abundance. "It seemed almost inconceivable that there might be a third highly stable form being produced before our eyes," said Prof. Harold Kroto, of England's Sussex University. He was among the first to suggest the existence of the carbon in 1985. "We stuck our necks out. Now we have proved we were correct," he said. It is probably present in soot and in the dust around stars and promises to be an even better lubricant than graphite because of the weak forces between its molecules. The molecules are also very stable, so it would not break down or burn very easily. IN LINE FOR "HAUNTED HOUSE" The Boys & Girls Club of success.

Neil McKinley of the Raiders scored the first goal of the game in the 15th minute. The Shooters vainly attempted to retaliate but defensemen Andrew Bell and Trevor Spence made sure no shots got through. Early in the second half Aldergrove's James Hamilton drove home the second goal. From then on the Shooters didn't have a chance. Bradley Neufeld got off a good attempt that just missed the net. Soon after that B.J. Konschuh, assisted by Trevor Spence scored the final goal of the game.

And witches wearing blackest cloaks, Show gaps where teeth should be. With bats upon their shoulders, With cats as lean as sticks; Stirring up a mess of brew In cauldron black as pitch. Their time is now upon them, This eve is one they share, Muttering spells among themselves, BEWARE, BEWARE. BEWARE! The moon peeks out from a fence of cloud, Shrinks with fear from ' such evil sound. As cauldrons bubble with witches' brew In tune with the bay of a hound. Bill finally made Senate OTTAWA - More than one year after first being sent to the Senate for approval, the Conservative government's unemployment insurance bill has finally made it out of the upper chamber. But it could be the middle of next month before the sweeping changes proposed in the bill will be enacted. The Employment and Immigration Department says it will need several weeks to put the new system in place. Only fishermen and older workers can expect to see quicker action. The new system is designed to redirect about $800 million away from low-employment areas and into improved job- training programs. As well, another $500 million will be directed toward extended benefits for new parents and older workers. The bill will also see the federal government end its annual $2 billion contribution to the $13 billion Ul fund, with employers and workers now responsible for shouldering the entire load of the program. Hazards make council nervous MATSQUI Councilors discussed the issue of bulk storage of hazardous wastes in the municipality, at Monday's meeting. Two specific applications for handling thinners, solvents and lead acid batteries in the 31000-block of Peardonville Road gained council's tentative approval. Planner Paul Moritz said that provincial environment ministry has been "tightening up... requiring uses under permit." The operations had been considered legally conforming prior to 1985, which has resulted in council wondering whether specific zoning should be drawn up for hazardous waste disposal, storage and recycling. The application for thinners and solvents storage would provide for storage in large tanks, for later shipment to facilities in Alberta which handle disposal and recycling. Spills would be contained by concrete catch basin and berms, should they occur. The application for lead acid batteries would provide .tor- age for a maximum of 30,000 kilograms in a concrete block warehouse. The batteries would be shipped weekly to Richmond or North Vancouver facilities for reconditioning. Moritz said the applications were sound and ministry requirements would ensure public safety. However, alderman Christine Lamb pointed out that Matsqui had suffered problems before because of lack of monitoring by the ministry. "We've had to deal with the unfortunate results." Moritz said monitoring appeared to be a high priority with the ministry these days. Mayor Dave Kandal suggested that the municipality discuss monitoring policies with the ministry with the aim of ensuring that it was satisfactory. The motion was carried.
