COUNCILORS GOOFED Budget approved... by a fluke MURRAYVILLE - It appears that the latest FYaser Valley Regional Library budget - much protested by several municipalities in the lower mainland -- slipped through, but only because councilors here goofed. They instructed their representative to the library board, Aid. Muriel Arnason, to vote in favor of no more than a four percent increase to the library's budget, which because of population growth in Langley township would have meant roughly an eight percent increase to the local levy. Arnason voted for an eight percent increase, and the library board was happy, since this meant they would get about 12 percent more revenue from Langley. Other member municipalities, notably Delta, White Rock and Chilliwack, were not so happy since it meant that their protests were over-ruled. Delta and White Rock have already chosen to opt out of the FYaser Valley library system in 1990. They find the system to be too costly for the services provided. Langley township has also toyed with the idea. They have accused the library administration of being nothing but a bunch of empire builders trading services to the public such as book stocks and branch opening hours for "a rich" complex of administrative offices and computers in the brand new central building in Abbotsford. Now, Langley aldermen have been informed that the 1989 budget has been passed, thanks to their mistake. They do not blame Amason, but Aid. John Scholtens admits that it is "a very costly error." Says Scholtens, "We could have stopped them from keeping on growing." Two weeks ago, we reported that the FYaser Valley library system was falling apart. It appears now, with the added money in the coffers, that it will survive. At least for another year or two. CIRCULATION: 9,000 COPIES VOL.30 No.48 THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1988 30 CEMTS Established 1957 • 3089 - 272 Street, Aldergrove, B.C. Call 856-8303 or 856-5212 Higher taxes, or cuts to programs? OTTAWA - Analysts agree that Canadians should brace themselves for either higher taxes or a cut in social programs. But they don't agree on which route the new majority government should or will follow to tackle what Finance Minister Michael Wilson described Monday night as the "No. 1 priority" - reducing the $28-billion annual deficit. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney warned: "I think we have to continue the downward trend on the deficit." A growing number of economists warn that unless spending is cut or taxes increased, the annual deficit could be back about $30 billion as early as next year. The accumulated deficit is more than $300 billion. "I would imagine that if the deficit is going to be the priority we can look at an increase in taxes," said Katherine Graham, a Carleton University professor and editor of the book How Ottawa Spends. "I think the timing is right for that.'' However, she doubted the government would attack social programs - "or if they do do it, I think they'll try and downplay it." Woman to trial LANGLEY - Provincial Court has committed Deborah Anne Ealey to stand trial in a higher court on charges of manslaughter. Ealey, 37, was charged in connection with the death of her husband, Patrick James Ealey, 28, of 312 - 5381 - 207 Street. He died as result of a stabbing injury he sustained July 28 at 3 a.m. In 1985 the Tories reduced inflation protection for family allowances but, facing a national outcry, retreated from a proposal to do the same to old age pensions. An increase in income tax rates or the introduction of the proposed national sales tax are two possible sources of extra revenue, she said. The proposed sales tax would be applied to many goods and services not now taxed. William Mackness, dean of the faculty of management at the University of Manitoba and a staunch deficit-reduction advocate, says increasing taxes isn't a solution. "Our taxes are now so much higher than taxes in the United States and in the other industrial countries that we are at risk of becoming uncompetitive if we move our taxes up," he said. "I think the universal social programs will have to be rexamin- ed critically," he said. "I do not believe that the country can any longer afford to pay money to people who don't need it. ' 'The upcoming budget will determine whether indeed this issue is going to be dealt with seriously or not," he said. "I'm optimistic that it will." Business groups, which gave the government a lot of Support during the election campaign, also want the deficit reduced through spending cuts, not tax increases. George Vasic, economist with Data Resources of Canada, expects any attack on the deficit to come through the proposed sales Please see page 3 Clear sailing: Pin booms anchored in the Fraser River near Agassize help the Debris Control Board stop more than 150,000 cubic metres of tree roots and other floating debris littering B.C.'s beaches each year.

Break-entry bridegroom gets 10 years LANGLEY - Provincial Court has sentenced Noble Bruce Gregory Adam to 10 years imprisonment after he was convicted of aggravated assault. Adam, 20, was charged in June, after his 17-year-old female victim identified him from a wedding notice photo published by the Langley Times. The woman sustained injuries, when Adam broke into her Langley city suite in the early morning hours and assaulted her. Charges of break and entry against Adam were stayed by the Crown prosecutors. Elderly man still lost ALDERGROVE - A 90-year-old man who was found dead in a ditch appeared to have died from natural causes, said Langley RCMP. Harry Westman, of 26725 FYaser Highway, was found beside the highway near his home, by a passerby at 7:15 a.m., Nov. 20. There was no sign of foul play, but an autopsy report will confirm the cause of death. Police are still looking for 87-year- old Maurice Edgar Bowman, however. He was last seen near Langley Mall, a month-and-a-half ago. He is 5'5", about 100 lbs. with black hair and blue eyes, and horn-rimmed glasses. He is missing a portion of the bridge of his nose due to a car accident. Those who may have seen this man are asked to provide Langley RCMP with any information; call 534-4184.

Hydro's bill collectors. Gran is a director of BC Hydro, and NDP leader Mike Harcourt has charged that she was in a conflict of interest when she called to arrange a credit extension for her son from the Crown corporation. The NDP have called for an investigation. Gran said her son, Blair Gran was having cash flow problems with his newly-launched sign painting business, and that she did only what any caring mother would do. She signed a $900 personal Guarantee in August of 1987, for her son's overdue Hydro bills. Blair has since paid the bills, including interest. The NDP have pointed out that Carol Gran did not meet the guidelines for guarantors, but Hydro credit manager Terry Parsons said his job allows him to make some judgment calls. "If they're known to the corporation, often there's no difficulty," said Parsons, who also said he was not aware that Carol Gran was a director of Hydro's board, at that time. Premier Bill Vander Zalm has Krieger in The Province, Nov. 29. backed Gran's defence of her actions. "She acted as a mother or a parent would" he said, Sunday. Gran said she did not use her position as a Hydro director to influence the decision of Hydro's credit department, and did not receive special treatment. "I've done nothing wrong and I don't anticipate any consequences. It's a very normal practice and particularly normal for a parent.'' Improvements urged ALDERGROVE - Concentrate on improvements to the portion of Jackman Road (272 Street) between FYaser Highway and Bertrand Creek, the downtown revitalization committee has urged of Langley township council. The township has prepared plans for improvements to sidewalks along Jackman Road, and committee chairman Trudi Campen says her group working in conjunction with the local chamber of commerce would like to see the portion north of FYaser Highway done first. Two reasons for this, says Campen. One is the higher pedestrian and traffic counts combined with existing hazardous parking conditions, and two, that improvements here "would create a visible (and) identifiable downtown area." Facts or fiction? MURRAYVILLE - "How much is fact, and how much is fiction?" mused Aid. Steve Ferguson Monday night. Aldermen were once again talking about the proposed motorsports raceway in southeast Aldergrove, and Ferguson made comments to the promotional attempts by Bob LeFlufy of Pacific Motorsport Park Mangagement Ltd. to have the track located in an old gravel pit next to the Matsqui-Langley border. Langley township councilors have received letters of protest from residents of the area and from the Pioneer Park Co-op Housing Association. Mayor John Beales has expressed relief that the proposed racetrack is located in Matsqui and not in Langley. But unfortunately, that is barely across the border. Beales says he has had talks with Matsqui Mayor Dave Kandal and been told that the proposal won't reach the public hearing stage in Matsqui municipal hall until late January or February of 1989. Hit-run driver eludes MISSION - Crimestoppers is seeking public assistance in locating a fatal hit and run driver who has eluded police for over a year. Joan Katherine Walker, 33, was walking east on the north side of the Lougheed Highway in the 35500 block of Hatzic at 4:55 p.m. on Dec. 5, 1987 in a heavy rain storm. She was seen passing a gas station and walking on the highway's shoulder following the white fog line marking the pavement's New council LANGLEY - The new city council will be sworn in at inaugural meeting at 4 p.m. on Monday, December 5.

The vehicle failed to stop after fatally injuring the woman and was last seen travelling west toward Mission. Hatzic is located on the east boundary of Mission. The vehicle is described as a new model passenger vehicle with a trunk. No other description is available. Police believe the vehicle would have sustained damage to the right front side.

Crimestoppers will pay up to $2,000 for information leading to the arrest of an individual or individuals involved in a crime. Callers do not have to appear in ./court or reveal an identity.

Dead is Gregory Thomas Aurat, 21, of 24710-48 Avenue. Aurat was pronounced dead at the scene, while his passengers both suffered injuries. His brother, Chris Aurat, 24, was taken to Langley Memorial Hospital, while Todd William Weelaufer did not require hospitalization.

Arnason defends free enterprisers MURRAYVILLE - A local alderman has asked for total cost accounting to be made available to the public in regards to the two November 19 money referenda. Aid. Terry Thome says this Great season forecast VICTORIA - British Columbia's hospitality industries had a strong performance during the height of the tourist season this past summer, the minister of tdurism reports. "Every available statistic Suggests 1988 will be an exceptional year," said minister Bill Reid. "British Columbia's reputation as a destination, particularly among international travellers, is growing at an astonishing rate.'' Reid said overseas customs entries at B.C. points were up 20.4 percent during the first eight months of this year. Total entries for that period were 432,862 individuals. Visitor volumes from Pacific Rim countries were brisk. Arrivals at B.C. customs points from Japan are up 34 percent to the end of August compared with the same period of 1987, Hong Kong arrivals increased 35 percent and United Kingdom visitors are up 23 percent. Westbound traffic over the Rogers Pass was up 11.3 percent to 1.2 million until the end of September. Revenue from all forms of accommodation stood at $327.2' million, an increase of 16 percent, to the end of July and ferry traffic to Vancouver Island stood at 6.57 million, up 6.3 percent, to the end of August.

Initially, he was one of only two council members who voted against bringing the unsuccessful referenda before the taxpayers. Prior to election day, Thome said the cost of the referenda would be in the neighborhood of $80,000. Ths included promotion as well as the actual cost of setting up the machinery to conduct the vote. Ambitious program for sewer and water MURRAYVILLE - Township councilors here have approved recommendations from their engineering staff that $5.3-million in revenue sharing grants be sought from senior government. If all of the grants were approved, council would start on a program to install more than $18-mLUion worth of water and sewer facilities in Langley. Biggest item on the list is the projected cost of $6.8-million to bring water to Langley from the Greater Vancouver grid system. Water lines now extend into the eastern part of Surrey, or almost to the borders of Langley city. Bringing water to Willoughby and Salmon River Uplands, and sewers to Milner, Murrayville and the Fort Langley commercial core also rank high on the list. For Aldergrove, the list includes minor improvements to the existing Heritage sites MURRAYVILLE - A bylaw designating the Armand-Rowlatt farmstead and the Lochiel elementary school as heritage sites was given final approval by township council this week. All the buildings are located within the boundaries of the Campbell Valley regional park. Taxes or cuts? From front tax and it would be politically wise for the government to act early in its mandate, he said. While Wilson has repeatedly promised that the new sales tax won't be used to increase revenue, Vasic said that since it's difficult to be precise about the revenue a new tax will generate, the government will probably "err on the revenue- generating side." Some accountants say the tax could be announced in the next budget, likely late February or early March. However, Finance Department officials say it would take another 18 months to put the new tax in place. Vasic also questioned whether there is much money to be saved by limiting social program payments to those in need and that there may be a political price to pay. "That's another one of those sacred trusts," he said. "And you don't get much savings from that.'' Cutting social payments to those that don't need them will generate demands that they be increased for those that need them, offsetting any real savings, he said. "So you end up giving more to fewer people," he said. sewage treatment plant. The township plans to spend $130,000 here, and will be asking Victoria to share in this cost by providing a grant of $32,500. All in all, "it is an ambitious program," says Aid. Steve Ferguson.

Muriel Amason this week came out swinging for free enterprise. Councilors were discussing collection of garbage in the municipality. Mayor John Beales said he wduld prefer to see "only one (garbage) truck on each road in 1989.'' And that was when council's conservative left-winger struck her blow for free enterprise. Amason said she would like to see Langley split up into at least four quarters, giving small companies in the industry the opportunity to bid on collection routes on the same terms as their larger competitors. If there were only to be one contract for the entire township, Amason said, the smaller operators would "fall by the wayside." Aid. John Scholtens said it was seldom he agreed with Amason, but this time he had to concur. However, Aid. Aubrey Searle said there was no need to worry, fo Surrey, he said, there is only one main garbage collection contract let. The small one-truck operators survive by sub-contracting for the general contractor, fo fact, "doing the work." The matter will, no doubt, come up again.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Raceway a poor legacy Editor, The Star, Sir, I read in your November 24 issue that Mr. R. LeFlufy, on behalf of some others and himself, is once again proposing a racing car complex in Matsqui municipality. How often does this proposal have to be turned down? It has been rejected by about every municipality in the Fraser Valley. I believe the only ones that have not had the opportunity to reject this is North and West Vancouver - locations of Mr. LeFlufy's office and domicile. Let's give them an opportunity to reject this proposal. Regardless of the pap Mr. LeFlufy is broadcasting at his open houses, past experiences by other communities that had racing ovals are well documented and they in no way reflect what the proponents of this smoke-making, noise producing complex are stating. The idea is to promote it with a few letters from Coquitlam residents that feel it would be a good thing for Matsqui. I would be very enthusiastic, too, if I lived in Coquitlam and could get rid of the Westwood The day they shot Jack Editor, The Star, Sir, It was a day that will go down in history. The day they shot Jack Kennedy, and the return of the Conservatives to power. The loss of a great president will be remembered forever, and history may hold the same for Canada. Only time will tell. One thing is for sure each party did their level best to divide the citizens of this great country, by not telling the people the real truth was, each party was hell bent for power. Their propaganda was a smoke screen for the real concerns of the country, the national debt. It had to be number one. Perhaps the only solution left to us, would be to declare war against the USA, then surrender the next day, and let the USA rebuild our country like Japan and West Germany.

Matsqui's legacy from this racing oval will be higher tax bills for widening and maintaining roads, sewer maintenance - extra policing outside the park - increased insurance costs to offset increased vandalism - NOISE pollution and incessant traffic problems that will also hinder the passage of farm vehicles in the vicinity. It will also bring to a half any further residential building in the general area. I also note that Mr. LeFlufy states in his release that there will be alcoholic beverages served at the complex. Just great!! To the devil with peace and tranquility so long as my bottom line looks good. RAYWEST 13-27111 Zero Ave., Aldergrove Hospital staff caring, competent Editor, The Star, Sir, We wish to provide the following information to the community as follow-up to your story from Mrs. Sandy Hepburn in the Aldergrove Star of November 3,1988. We have tested the knowledge base of most of our emergency nurses and random tested many other floor nurses and find the level of understanding of the metric measuring system is completely accurate. Therefore, we can only surmise that the information passed on to Mrs. Hepburn was accurate and that it was either misunderstood or misinterpreted. We regret any inconvenience suffered by Mrs. Hepburn. RICHARD R. HOLINATY Langley Memorial Hospital Is community really split? Editor, The Star, Sir, As one who worked for approval of the recent referenda, I am both encouraged and discouraged by the results. I am encouraged by the fact that, of those who voted in the City of Langley, 48% percent voted for the Community Cultural Centre, even though it was to be built outside of the city. There were also five polling areas in the Township of Langley where the vote ranged from 40 percent to 48 percent in favour of the Cultural Centre. To those of us who have seen the emphasis placed almost exclusively on sports facilities in our community, these percentages are a most encouraging sign. Many people not only recognize the worth of the arts but they are prepared to pay for them. I am, however, discouraged when I see that polls in the eastern part of Langley voted strongly against both referenda, to the extent that one poll in the southeast comer of the Municipality produced a vote of 95 percent against each of the referenda. Does this mean that our community is so fragmented that we are only interested in supporting facilities that are located in our own local area? Such an attitude does not bode well for the future development of our community. That same approach was evident in northwest Langley where one poll voted 48 percent for the Cultural Centre that would serve the whole community but 76 percent for the referendum that would provide a Community Centre in that area. To those of us who worked in the information booths in the Malls during the last week of the campaign, it was evident that many of our residents had little, if any, knowledge of the referenda. Many people obviously do not read our local papers, and I suspect many of the brochures that were delivered to each household went unread with the numerous brochures from those seeking public office. Those of us working for a favourable vote obviously did not do a good enough job of getting our message to the citizens of Langley, but it seems that development of our community will be frustrated so long as the different areas of our community look only to their own interests. It is easy to vote no - it takes vision and concern for the whole community to say yes. NORMAN SEVERIDE Langley peace — then work constructively By KURT LANGMANN Now that all the dust has settled on the Langley referenda issue, it's time for both the proponents and opponents of the three facilities to make peace with each other. Sad to say, there is still some lingering bitterness among some of the people on both sides of the fence. There is no reason for it. Everyone of the people who voted on Nov. 19 chares a genuine conern for our municipality. We all want what's best for ourselves and our children, and a majority of over 60 percent have decided that the three proposed new facilities did not fit that description ~ at least, not in the manner that the proposals were presented. As one Star reader (a local music teacher) told me, she would like to have a concert grand piano, but she can't afford one. She didn't vote against the referenda out of a jealousy or spite, but rather, because, like the new piano, she couldn't afford it. Simple as that. I think this lady is more representative of the "No" voters, than any of the people who were actively advocating or exerting political pressure on this issue, on either side. Bear in mind that voter turnout exceeded almost everyone's expectations. More people voted on this referenda than last year's election of a mayor, aldermen and school trustees. It was easier for people to make a decision on spending money than on a choice of politicians. Perhaps voters believe that one politician is going to cost them about the same as another candidate, but our municipal politicians should keep an eye out on their backsides. All of the council appeared stunned by Joe Lopushinsky's victory over incumbent mayor Reg Easingwood in Langley city. I wouldn't take any credit away from Lopushinsky because the man worked very hard for his victory, but I'd suggest that some of his margin came from city voters who also registered their protest against the referenda by dumping Easingwood. This sort of protest might not be entirely fair to the politicians concerned, but catching flak is part of their job description. However, none of this means that the proposed facilities are impossible goals. The North West Langley Community Centre should be pursued in the same manner as the new Aldergrove Community Centre. The original proposal is way out of line - for example, why include money-losing squash and racquet courts when Willowbrook and Newlands are nearby and offer superior competitive courts without taxpayer subsidies? The Aldergrove Kinsmen have offered to give copies of their plans and advice, free of charge, to any other service club which wants to build a community centre. Now, there's a deal the taxpayers would approve of. Another ice rink is possible, and will come in its own good time. Perhaps the township can build a practical, simple design like Aldergrove's arena for a lot less money than another sheet at Brookswood. Perhaps not. This leaves the cultural centre proposal! The Langley Arts Council did a lot of work and in-depth studies, but obviously they didn't get it right. Yet. From my perspective, their biggest fault was a very poor sales pitch. Cynics have suggested it was a deliberate ploy, because it would mean that the apathetic public, unaware of what was going on, would neglect to tum up at the polls on Nov. 19, and the 3,000- member strong arts council would bring it through to victory. I had trouble accepting this "cynical" theory, and the voters did, too. I think the problem ~ a lack of excitement - rests with the fact that the arts council are all volunteers who don't have the experience or background to make a real professional-style promotional package. When people talk about the arts, they're not interested so much in practicality, universal accessibility and all the other utilitarian concerns. They want to be excited. People will spend unreasonable amounts of money and travel great distances for the artistic experience which they happen to savor. Haven't you heard your friends and neighbors brag about how much they spent to see "Cats" or the "Phantom of the Opera"? Didn't they travel to Seattle to see the treasures of King Tut and the Son of Heaven? Aren't the famous museums of the world the first stop of most vacationers? Don't people get excited when a world-famous opera company or ballet dancer schedules Vancouver performances? Of course, we all get excited, and this is the key to success for a local cultural industry. Certainly, the bottom-line cost is a very real factor with any proposal, but whether the cost is a few thousand dollars or several million dollars, the only way it will fly is if taxpayers believe the return on the investment is good value. That means they can expect excitement and world-class performances. The cultural centre proponents didn't get that message across to the voters, obviously, even if they believed it themselves. Part of the problem was the proposed location in Murrayville. The proponents should take a look at the Shaw Festival at Niagara- On-The-Lake. Here, with considerable federal government money, they have made a world-class centre which attracts tourists from around the world. It is adjacent to a historic fort which has staff in period costumes. It is an "event." People visit, spend lots of money and take great memories home. Local business-people live on the tourism industry. Our proponents should pursue a similar proposal for Port Langley, rather than move the exhibition centre out of the historic town. They should badger our MP, Bob Wenman to procure federal money for a real tourist attraction package at the Fort - theatres, galleries, and other performance venues, as well as the full re-creation of the fort, itself. Fort Langley is not central in the municipality, but it is a perfect "destination" whether for residents or tourists. People want the arts to be an event, and a Fort Langley package could so easily be done. 'tMZMMZ+W THE ALDERGROVE STAR, pfcCEMBER 1,1988 Fringe parties pulled votes Honored by the Greater Vancouver Regional District for significant contribution to GVRD parks were Bays Black- hall (right) of the Fort Langley Recreation Committee and Tom Bates of the Surrey and White Rock Naturalists, shown receiving their awards from Ann Hulbert, a member of the GVRD Parks Committee. The Recreation Committee coordinated a program for trail improvement at Derby Reach Regional Park while the Surrey and White Rock Naturalists provided major improvements at Campbell Valley Regional Park. Both parks are in Langley Township. The 'Thank You' awards are an annual presentation by the GVRD. Majority response wanted MURRAYVILLE - Local ratepayers should only vote on money referenda during election years when the mayor's seat is up for grabs. And in order for a referendum to be successful, at least 51 percent of the eligible electors should turn Out to vote, and a majority of the 51 percent, of course, should favor the proposition. That is what a notice of motion, made this week by Aid. Muriel Amason, calls for. Motion will be debated by the seven councilors next week. "What do you want to do? Drag them to the polls?" Aid. John Scholtens asked this week. A record number of Langley voters turned Out to defeat two money referenda on November 19, in spite of the fact that this was not an election year. Just the same, voter turnout was recorded at only 24.266 percent of eligible electors. But in the past, it has been as low as 12 percent. VANCOUVER - Although they ended up empty-handed in seats, the conservative Reform and Christian Heritage parties pulled votes away from the Regressive Conservatives in British Columbia last Monday. Ironically, in some cases they enhanced the NDP's already strong showing in the province. The Alberta-based Reform party, which advocates a greater voice for the West in Ottawa, did especially well in Interior and Vancouver Island ridings. • It polled only five percent of the popular vote provincewide but eroded the Tory vote enough in some ridings to ensure NDP victories. In the Vancouver Island riding of Saanich-Gulf Island, for example, Reform's Bob Slavik came fourth with 13 percent of the popular vote, helping the NDP's Lynn Hunter defeat incumbent Tory Pat Crofton by a slim margin. In ridings which the Tories retained, Reform candidates sometimes reduced the winning margin. Political scientist David Eirikson said Reform strived, apparently successfully, to avoid being lumped in with other extreme right-wing parties, such as the separatist Western Canada Concept and the Peak consumption BURNABY - The peak day water consumption in the Greater Vancouver Regional District system this year occurred on July 25 when close to 1.9-billion litres were delivered. This figure is just slightly under the all-time record for one day consumption which was set in 1985 and equalled last year. The GVRD supplies water to virtually every community in the Lower Mainland, with a total population of 1.3-million. During the heavy demand summer months the system operated without any serious difficulties.

"I don't think they're confined to the right-wing lunatic fringe element," said Eirikson, a University of British Columbia professor. The Christian Heritage party, led by Ed Vanwoudenberg of Surrey, secured one percent of the popular vote nationally and in his home province in fielding 63 candidates. Vanwoudenberg, who said he founded the party to bring traditional morality and ethics back to government, lost his bid for a seat in Fraser Valley West. He drew about five percent of the vote, finishing fourth behind Bob Wenman, the Tory incumbent. A spectrum of parties, from the ecologically oriented Greens to the minimal-government Libertarians and the whimsical Rhinoceros party attracted voters. The Rhinos' John C. Turner, who ran against Liberal Leader John N. Turner in Vancouver Quadra, ran fifth among 12 candidates. The Rhino candidate's name appeared ahead of the Liberal leader's name, fooling at least one voter who admitted she's marked her X in the wrong circle. 2 MORE REASONS TO SHOP THE COUNTRYSIDE • • • New Open ■e WORKWEN? /tVWQRLD Owned and operated by Ken & Donna Barrell.

James Peetoom - 856-1211 Get letters to Middle-man not wanted Editor, The Star, Sir, Last week teachers in Coquitlam signed their first contract after 115 hours of negotiating. This week, teachers in Kitimat took strike action after being involved in negotiating since last May. The difference in these events - in Coquitlam, the teachers were negotiating directly with their School Board. In Kitimat, the teachers were trying to negotiate with a lawyer hired by the School Board. In Langley, our School Board has also left their negotiating in the hands of a lawyer. The result - this week our teachers are on the verge of taking a strike vote because the Board's lawyer refuses to negotiate many items that deeply concern our teachers. I think that it is time our School Board made a public statement to parents and taxpayers explaining why they have placed such vital negotiations in the hands of a lawyer, who has no direct interest other than being paid. Anyone who has ever been involved in any kind of a negotiation is aware that negotiating through a middleman is somewhat akin to playing the piano with mitts on - the results are less than satisfactory, to say the least! Anyone who knows teachers is aware that they are in general a very dedicated and public spirited group who have high ideals regarding responsibility and commitment to our children and to our community. The idea of striking is distasteful to all of them. Yet they obviously feel that they've been backed into a corner. Some less charitable people might even suggest that the Board's lawyer is taking advantage of our teachers' sense of civic responsibility and their natural reluctance to take effective job action. It's time for the Langley School Board to end the confrontation, - to release their lawyer - and to get down to doing the job we elected them for. Follow Coquitlam's example, negotiate directly. There are many very able people on our School Board staff - do we really need to pay a high priced lawyer? Let's avoid stress in our classrooms, our children need good teachers, not defeated ones! Let's have a Win-Win negotiation NOW, before it's too late. CHARLIE NESS Langley Leadership hailed Editor, The Star, Sir, 'Thumbs up' for B.C.'s new Science & Technology Policy! We commend the leadership provided by the Minister of Advanced Education and Job Training, Stan Hagen. British Columbians of all ages must become more familiar with the advances being made in technology. It's touching every facet of our lives. It is the way of the future, and therefore important that young British Columbians study the sciences and technology. We're doing a reasonable job in B.C. of keeping abreast of technological change. Let's keep up the momentum! JOHN E. LEECH, Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of B.C., Burnaby OTTAWA - Canada Post Corporation employees, who last year volunteered to answer close to 800,000 letters Santa Claus received from children across Canada and other parts of the world, are geared up to do it again this year. "As in previous years, every child who writes a letter to Santa, addresses it correctly and includes a return address, will receive a reply from the North Pole," said Helene Labelle, this year's national coordinator at Canada Post for Santa's letter writing program. The program had a modest debut in 1973. That was when a handful of postal employees across the country answered a few thousand letters addressed simply to "Santa Claus" - while several thousands more were addressed to him in care of particular department stores and delivered to those stores. The Santa Letter Writing Program gained in popularity annually and, due to the ever-increasing number of letters received, became an organized nation-wide project in 1982. Last year, 8,516 postal employees volunteered their personal time to reply to the nearly 800,000 letters. They were assisted in their letter writing endeavours by senior citizens, community and professional groups across the country. The program is also part of Canada Post Corporation's support for improved literacy among children. It promotes correct addressing of letters and the use of the postal code. It enhances the magic of Christmas by ensuring that each child who writes a letter to Santa Claus gets a reply from him. Letters to Santa should be sent to the following address: Santa Claus North Pole Canada HOH OHO Bowling!!!| Open Bowling Friday, 6:30 - 10 p.m. Saturday 2 - 5 p.m., 6:30 -10 p.m. Sunday 1 - 5, 6:30 - 9:30 p.m. Reservations Suggested ALDER LANES 27070 Fraser Hwy., Aldergrove 856-2034 In-Store Offer Kodak Kolorkins Sweatshirt (sug. retail $29.95) With the purchase of specified Kodak 35mm Cameras and 3 rolls of Kodak colour film Complete details in store.

Totems enjoy great start The Aldergrove Totems Sr. Boys Basketball team enjoyed a tremendous start in their first week of play, winning four games and losing none. The season commenced with the annual Alumni game featuring twelve players who graduated during the past two years. It was perhaps the most thrilling Alumni game ever as the younger totems rained to squeak out a win, 83-82, on a last second free throw by Jamie McCaffrey. Although Aaron Lermouth lead all scorers with 16 points, every player was involved in the scoring machine. Dale Murphy led the Alumni as he popped in 15 points. The game has turned out to be quite a tradition and the Alumni vow to return ikn full force next year again. The Queen Elizabeth Royals were the opposition in game two as the Totems visited one of many "AAA" schools in their schedule for this year. The Totems are categorized as a "AA" school which simply means the Aldergrove school is a smaller school in terms of student population. Although the Totems were matched up against a much taller team they did manage to sneak away with a 89-75 victory. This game appeared to be a real confidence builder for the local boys as they may have surprised even themselves. Maka Halafihi had an outstanding game grabbing 14 rebounds, scoring 26 points, and stealing 9 balls. Aldergrove Secondary hosted its annual Keg Classic "tip-off" Tourney this past weekend. First, the Totems met the W.J. Mouat Hawks from Abbotsford. Because the Mouat school is in the process of building a program, their inexperience was evident as they were thoroughly beaten, 108- 46. Once again all players contributed in the scoring as 5 players scored ion double figures. Jamie McCaffrey took in 8 rebounds and knocked in 24 points, 10 of which were free throws. This set up an interesting winners game with the Cariboo Hill Chargers who had beaten the Delta Pacers in the opener; A perennial basketball power, the Chargers from Burnaby, have managed to play in the final game of the "AA" Provincial Championship in each of the past two years, winning in 1987 and placing second in 1988. They will certainly be a contender again in 1989 when the "AA" B.C. Tournament is hosted by Aldergrove secondary. The game was a "nail-biter" as both teams played stubborn defense and relied heavily on the fast break game. During the mid fourth quarter the Chargers enjoyed a 5 point lead but not for long as the Totems responded with 10 unanswered points, outscoring their opponents 11-2 in the last 4 minutes of the game to win, 69-65. Of all games this game was a real test for the locals. All team members savored the victory as they captured the Keg Classic trophy for the first time since its inception in 1977. Matt Stockbrocks came to play on this night as he hit for 25 points and collected 6 steals.

Local teacher wins McLuhan award LANGLEY - Greg McArthur, department head of computer studies at D.W. Poppy Secondary, is one of ten provincial winners of the Marshall McLuhan Outstanding Teacher Award. McArthur will receive his award, Dec. 8 in a special ceremony in Vancouver. "Greg has guided the D.W. POppy staff in becoming computer literate and has also guided the computer literacy of the entire student body," said Dale Halcrow, principal at D.W. Poppy Secondary. McArthur has inspired and assisted in the application of computer technology in almost all subject areas of the curriculum; English, Socials, Science, Art Design and Graphics, Business Ed., Drafting, Journalism, Learning Assistance, and Special Education. He has worked on the development of Computer Applications 8 and Computer Studies 9-10. These programs have been used in part or whole in other parts of Langley School District and throughout the province. The awards program began this year with cooperation of the education ministry, the B.C.T.F. and the financial support of corporations, including B.C. Tel, Imperial Oil and Southam Inc. ' 'This is a very important program which will give tangible recognition to some of the many dedicated and outstanding individuals who are teaching our children in the B.C. education system," said Minister of Education, Tony Brummet. Fireflys flame out The novice 'A' Fireflys flamed out as they went down to Langley 7-5. Aldergrove opened the scoring when Michelle Bettles scored with assists from Amy Russenholt and Heather Gray. Langley came back and scored 3 goals in a row. Then Michelle Bettles scored again with help from Amy Russenholt and Petra Mach. With 41 seconds remaining in the first period Shan on Waters tied it up receiving a pass from Sherri Harty who was able to pass due to the terrific work of Maria Mach. Langley broke the- tie early in the 2nd period, then scored three more times. Heather Gray scored the Fireflys fourth goal with help from Amy Russenholt and Willow Unruh. A late goal from Sherri Harty finished Aldergrove's scoring with help from Shannon Waters, although the Fireflys lost. Shannon Bettles played well in goal stopping 24 shots.

Hagen, Minister responsible for youth, said the program is designed to provide start-up assistance for innovative projects of benefit to youth in the community. Those projects funded are recommended for approval by the B.C. Youth Advisory Council. "I am extremely pleased that we were able to once again provide funds for the grants program," said Hagen. "There have been many very worthwhile projects funded since the Youth Grants Program began in 1985, and I am confident that the 1988 program will see a greater number of project proposals than ever before.'' Information on the program and application packages will be available from B.C. Youth Advisory Council members, Regional Youth Committee members, and Government agents at the end of June. Forests are a growth industry VICTORIA - Almost $140-million has been invested in British Columbia's forests and 434,000 days of employment created throughout the province since the five-year, Canada-British Columbia Forest Resource Development Agreement (FRDA) was signed in 1985. Ihe most current FRDA statistics were released by former federal Forestry Minister Gerry St. Germain and provincial Forests Minister Dave Parker. St. Germain was defeated by the NDP's Joy Langan, Nov. 19. "That money and those days of employment have meant that more than 650,000 hectares of forest land have received silviculture treatment," St. Germain said in releasing the statistics. "The treatments will ensure that the province's forests continue to provide a vital natural resource for future generations of British Columbians," added Parker. "Spending priorities vary from region to region, depending on the unique silivculture needs of each," said St. Germain. "The treatments include tree planting, fertilization, weeding and thinning, surveys and site preparation, much of it being done in innovative ways," Parker said. "Already, under the terms of FRDA, almost 78-million trees have been planted across the province. 'Tve watched the progress being made under the FRDA program. I've reviewed the FRDA results on forest lands near communities throughout the province. The statistics reinforce what people in British Columbia are seeing for themselves - namely, that silviculture has never been healthier or more active in our province," said Parker. St. Germain said the silviculture work being done under FRDA will increase^ the timber yields for the future, resulting in as many as 500 new, permanent jobs in forestry. "We're seeing the birth of new industries, such as site preparation contracting, where local people with heavy equipment and the right skills are capitalizing on business opportunities in silviculture and are hiring local workers," said St. Germain. "Tree nurseries throughout the province are expanding to meet the new, increased demands of the silviculture industry. To an extent where FRDA, in conjunction with new provincial forestry legislation, helped create the economic conditions which have allowed for the privatization of provincial government nurseries,'' added Parker. The five-year FRDA agreement, which ends in 1990, is providing a total of $300-million ion new forestry funds to British Columbia. FRDA's primary goal is to rehabilitate the backlog of Not Sufficiently Restocked forest land, known as NSR FRDA is also helping private woodlot owners and Native communities manage their forests as part of the overall forest inventory in British Columbia. Almost 10 percent of FRDA funding - $27-million - is being set aside for silviculture research ranging from the development of hardier, faster-growing seedlings to preventing seedling damage from forest wildlife such as rabbits, deer and voles. priority list which will be dealt with first when ticket sales open to the public. Tickets are available to members only until Dec. 15. On Dec. 16 the priority list will be taken care of and the rest of the tickets will be on sale to the public. The tickets are $17. each and include: cocktails - 6:30; dinner - 7:30; dancing - 9 p.m. to the music of Shirley Rodgers Trio.

GREYHOUND COURIER EXPRESS SANTA'S MOST TRUSTED ASSISTANT SHIP EARLY - AVOID THE RUSH Your local Greyhound agent is located at: 20471 Logan Ave., Langley, B.C. 534-3012 We are open seven days a week 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. What's green, 3 km wide and stretches from coast to coast? The two billion young trees planted in British Columbia during the past 50 years are the equivalent of a ribbon of reforestation stretching 3 km deep across the entire length of Canada. This year, British Columbia reforested more than 169,000 hectares with a record 200 million seedlings. That's two new trees for every one harvested. At this rate, we'll see another two billion seedlings planted in less than 10 years. That's good news for British Columbia and the more than 82,000 men and women employed in our $13 billion forest products sector, a genuine B.C. growth industry. For more inrbrmation about B.C.'s reforestation program, contact your MLA, your nearest Government Agent, or write to the Hon.

Over the years the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, home to Timmy's Christmas Telethon has seen many great performers grace its stage; this year is no exception. On December 3 and 4 Roger Whittaker and Tanya Tucker lead a star studded line-up which includes Telethon favorites Pat Boone, Up With People, Shari Lewis and, of course, Lamb Chop.

His "Slow Turning" album has been acclaimed as a superb follow-up on last year's breakthrough, "Bring The Family." His style is similar to Ry Cooder, a performer with whom Hiatt recently worked as a sideman. Hiatt first performed here as a solo act, about 10 years ago at the Vancouver Folk Festival, and also played this past summer at the PNE. His Toronto appearance was broadcast by CBC Radio's "The Entertainers" two weeks ago, and his new album has also had fair airplay on local commercial radio stations, including CFOX. Hiatt's songs are insightful and clever. Rosanne Cash covered his "How to Make a Broken Heart" on her last album, while Gary Chapman and Amy Grant duet on another Hiatt tune on Chapman's newest album. Hiatt's record company, A & M is also preparing to release a new duet single with Hiatt and Grant -- a combination few would have expected. Tickets for Hiatt's Dec. 8 show are on sale at VTC outlets. 21025-48th AVE.

Dave Carlyle of Mountain Equipment Co-op spent last fall cycling Nepal's peaks. Nepal has an area of 54,362 square miles and a population of 16.5-million. Much of the country is rugged, mountainous terrain which makes travel difficult and treacherous. With mountain bikes, Dave and his two friends cycled to the very remote areas of Nepal. They stopped at numerous villages, tried exotic dishes, and photographed the stunning landscape. Dave will be giving an overview of Nepal today and showing slides to complement his presentation. He will also comment on the necessary equipment and supplies required for such an adventure. Pre-registration and pre-payment are required. The fee is $2. per person, and $5. per family.

Being a person who doesn't put much faith in ESP and psychic powers, I was a little sceptical. I kind of expected to find people in long flowing robes with cone shaped hats, waving magic wands in the air. Or perhaps old gypsies with weather beaten faces, peering into their crystal balls. The term "fair" also made me curious. Wondering if it would be over- commercialized, with tables full of kits for the do-it-yOurselfer. Although there was one small table with gem stones, Tarot cards and even tiny crystal balls, this was clearly not the case. The fair was very low key with the mediums sitting quietly and not trying to lure people to their booths like hawkers in a midway. The first booth to catch my eye was one offering to photograph my dura. The concept of aural photography was developed by Guy Coggions of California, who converted a large format polaroid camera, ecjuiping it with sensors, enabling it to receive the electromagnetic energy surrounding a person's body. Golden wedding for LaFonds By OPAL THOMAS AIDERGROVE - Visitors at the Wednesday night seniors dance were Jim and Collene from Port Coquitlam. Also Bill and Mable Graham from Gilbert Plains, Manitoba. The 45th anniversary of Phyllis and Mike Pitts was celebrated with a card signed by everyone and the playing of the Anniversary Waltz. Prizes were won by Victor Barth- olomeu and Mac Sibbald. The spot dance prizes by Mable Parker and Ken Cowan. On Saturday, the large crowd had all been here before, so I couldn't find any first time visitors. The prizes went to Bunny Hami- ton, Zella Jackson, Duane Scott, Dorothy Gross and Edna Moffatt. Merv (I know his name but can't remember it) had a birthday but it was overshadowed by the 50th anniversary of Mae and Nap La Fond, who danced the anniversary waltz in the same clothes they wore at their wedding. Imagine being able to wear your wedding dress 50 years later! The spot dance prizes were won by Doreen Mason and Laura Gunter and Dorothy Siklenka and Tim Thomas. Remember the general meeting on Friday, Dec. 2. Come and vote for a new slate of executive. Pick up your Christmas dinner tickets and remember to bring your sales slips for Super Valu, Co-op, Safeway and Funks.

And so to bed. Ernie says, "The ideal husband is strong and silent! Strong on making money and silent on how his wife spends it!" When a picture is taken using this method it not only shows the person, but the dura Surrounding them. The next along the way was polarity therapy. This is similar to acupuncture or acupressure and was founded by Randolph Stone, a doctor of chiropractic, naturopathy and osteopathy. The booth looked almost Out of place among the others. The flat treatment table and various detailed medical charts and books showing the spinal column, joints and muscles of the body. I spoke with Pamela Finlayson, who in additon to being a psychic palmist, Tarot card reader, is a licenced esthetician certified in both reflexology and polarity therapy. My third stop, was also my most "unnerving" stop. I spoke with Anna Van Selst, spiritual and psychic consultant and past life regressionist. We stood by the table, me making notes while Van Selst talked about her work. In the past this has included exorcisims, and not the way they ae portrayed in movies with earthquakes and whirling beds. Van Selst explained that a spirit can become trapped in another body and then removed through prayer. (A lot of prayer, she added.) She invited me to sit, so she could do my reading. Taking my hand in hers one of the first things she told me was my mother's first name. Followed by certain occurences from my childhood. These were not vague situations in which everyone could read into their own life what they wanted to, but actual facts from my past. Scary, maybe. Amazing, could be. But unnerving definitely. I thanked her for the reading and walked away, repeatedly looking over my shoulder. Even the world of ESP and psychic phononoma is stepping into the computer age. Alpha Omega Graphics was there with a computer. For five dollars yOu were given an electronic Tarot reading, an electronic bio-rhythm, future scope and sex scope reading. My reading was four pages long. And though it seemed to cover enough, it dealt with the entire month of November, ending on the 26th, the day I visited the fair. I didn't compare mine with anyone else's, but mine wasn't close to accurate and the 649 numbers it gave were not right either. Leaving the computer age behind, I walked to tables down and talked with Karolina, a channel. Channeling means instead of receiving messages, the spirit speaks directly through her. Karolina uses psycho- metry (the holding of personal objects), and past life experiences. Karolina believes she has had 47 past lives and that life is eternal. She explained that every life is another chance to correct the mistakes made in past lives, and she went on abdut how dur emotions help to guide us. How Ego is part of common sense, helping us define right from wrong and keep us safe. Of that's true, I know some people who have nothing to fear). Last but not least I spoke with Leon Bedford. Leon has been psychic since chldhood and both his parents were psychic readers. Leon is a development grdup leader and teacher who works in spiritualist churches throughout the lower mainland. He was also the only one at the fair to use a crystal ball, and told me the ball has been used for centuries, but is merely a focal point to concentrate on. Laughingly saying that it is possible to get a reading from a basketball. In addition to his work with development groups and churches, Leon has worked with the police on six occasions, locating victims and uncovering clues in murder cases. All cases are still open so he cduld not discuss any details with me. As I walked from table to table and spoke with all these people, I found the biggest sceptics were the mediums themselves. Sceptic of other mediums and their methods. But all the mediums I spoke with agreed that ESP and psychic insights into your life can be helpful although it is not meant to be used as a be all and end all to guide your life with. The other thing they caution against is, when searching for a medium, the average price depending on the type and length of the reading is usually between 10 and 40 dollars. And anyone who promises to cure you of something or prevent something horrible from happening for a large Sum of money is a fake and should not be taken seriously. What do I think of the whole thing? I'm still not Sure if I believe or not, but I can't help but wonder! f BOB'S 1 | BARBERSHOP fc S Haircuts $7 Q | Seniors or 12 & under $6 Specialty Cuts $8 Mr. and Mrs. Steve Hepting.

BOB YOUNG The responsibility accompanying an MD degree extends beyond examining patients, reaching a diagnosis, prescription writing or performing an operation. A physician is expected to take part in activities that help his or her hospital function. Serving on or chairing committees and other groups is regarded as being part of the privilege of being a member of a hospital staff. Blow that whistle MURRAYVILLE - "But we must have train whistling at unguarded railroad crossings," says Aid. John Scholtens. Councilors here have received expressions of concern from a Fort Langley resident, Gib Clark, that CN locomotives no longer use the warning whistle at road crossings in and near the village. Other residents complained about the noise, and aldermen passed a bylaw outlawing the whistle warnings. But that should only apply to trains approaching crossings that are already protected by lights and guard rails, says Scholtens. Not to unguarded crossings. Council will write CN and point out this difference. There is an uncontrolled crossing at Church Street, and engineers must continue to blow the whistle when approaching this, councilors say. Meeting postponed Due to the holiday season fast approaching, the monthly Festival Days meeting will be cancelled for December. The next meeting for this organization will be Monday, Jan. 9 at 7 p.m. in the Elks Hall basement. Any member of the Aldergrove community is welcome to attend to lend support or make Suggestions for our Festival. WHAT'S GOT 150-BEERPOWER AND CAN CARRY40 SANTA BAGS THROUGH ICE,SLEET OR SNOW?

This group makes recommendations regarding equipment purchases, bed assignments, and other needs. At one time staff physicians were the people who ran the institution. Later medical doctors were hired (usually doctors) and they expedited the medical aspects of running hospitals, while executive directors (nonmedical administrators) looked after unions, the buildings, laundry, food services, and so on. Physician volunteers provide expertise for drug, death review, abortion, tissue (checking material removed at surgery), quality of care, physician education, and a host of other committees. Often the time involved is considerable, and other than possibly a free lunch there is usually no pay- In recent years an increasing amount of power has been gained by hospital administrators. Doctors tend to resent this, feeling that administrators are more concerned with costs and the bottom line than they are with patient care. Many administrators are hard- pressed to operate within government-assigned budgets, a must for continued employment. Cost saving measures often include closing wards and reducing staff. Medical input into these and other medical decisions is decreasing, and doctors resent this. Some feel that by serving on committees they are merely paying lip-service to the hospital bylaws while their advice is ignored. Internal politics and bureaucratic control have made many hospitals unhappy places for medical and -technical staff at all levels.

STAPLIN - 17 years experience experienced in the trial and settlement of PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS 20432 Douglas Cres., LANGLEY 534-8551 no charge for initial consultation By FLORA GREENOUGH AIDERGROVE - A few weeks ago I introduced ydu to the very worthwhile group, ORP, (Observe Report Patrol), with a call for volunteers interested in helping our police force making our town a safer place to live. Patrick Boyer, our co-ordinator, would like to thank one and all for the interest shown in coming forward. Volunteers have been screened by the police and are now being trained. We still have a ways to go to fulfill our dream of four cars out every Friday and Saturday night; but you can be sure we were out there. If you are willing to donate eight hours a month, to be extra ears and eyes for the RCMP, and making Aldergrove a bit more secure, please phone Patrick Boyer at 856-6341. Ihe training is on the job, sincere, serious, but very interesting and we certainly have our light and fun time. With crime ever present and persistent, and the number of RMCP ever staying the same, our group is needed if we hope to keep our local businesses and homes secure. Ihe break and entries keep climbing and this keeps shoving up the insurance rates. Each month, the local RMCP release a map of the local "hits", and next month could include your home or your business. A tour with ORP, might deter or eliminate such an occurence. We do not do police work and do not get involved with any crime; we do >ist what out letters imply; we observe, we report it and we patrol at night when dur citizens are sleeping. When police are called in on an observation, they do the policing while we get on with the patrol. We would like to take this time to wish all our friends and fellow Aldergrovians a very safe and secure Christmas and a very Happy New Year to each and everyone. Please, remember that a "few under the belt", makes you feel happy at the time, but if you drive with "a few", it can make you feel broken up in the emergency ward. Don't drink, then drive and you'll be fine. Looking to invest? Let's talk. Are you an entrepreneur looking for investment opportunities? If you are, you owe it to yourself to look into the provincial government's new Small Business Forest Enterprise Program. The improved program is designed to extract more of the hidden wealth in our timber by encouraging the remanufacture of lumber and the production of products such as window frames, doors, and furniture. Twice the opportunities We're setting aside twice as much timber for harvesting by small companies, especially companies with creative manufacturing ideas. And—because security of materials supply is so important for manufacturers—we're making timber available to the firms with the best proposals for periods of up to 10 years. While we're creating more opportunities for small companies—and more jobs for British Columbians—we're also keeping our commitment to future generations. As small companies harvest timber, the provincial government will be right behind them, renewing the forest for the future. We'll use some of the money from timber sales to pay for the reforestation. We'll always have productive forests. You can get more information at your local district office of the Ministry of Forests. Let's extract the hidden value from our timber! §s$ fl Province of British Columbia "* Ministry of Forests Hon.

The Keg in the Country welcomed representatives from Mountain Secondary, and the Langley School District to the signing which acknowledged an already existing school and business relationship. "I'm pleased that our long association with the Keg in the Country has been formalized into something that will benefit our students and the Keg," said Cam Gesy, principal at Mountain Secondary. "Because we share the same neighbourhood, the Keg has hired many of our students and given them experience in the hospitality industry." The 17th Partners in Education agreement was signed, Tuesday, Nov. 22, with representatives from the Langley School District, Mountain Secondary and the Keg in the Country. From top left are Rod Ross, Keg Service Manager, Derek Bennett, Chris Chandra, Food Manager, and Superintendent of Schools, Emery Dosdall. From bottom left are Stephen Tidball. Owner/ Manager, Marlene Grinnell, Board Chairman, and Cam Gesy. The partnership program will benefit both the school and the Keg. Keg in the Country manager, Stephen Tidball, said, "We look forward to being more involved with the students at Mountain. We believe that students need experience in the business world before they can make objective decisions about their post secondary pursuits. We see this as a benefit to encourage qualified students to choose hospitality as a career path." The Keg will have the opportunity to invite students from the music and graphics art program at Mountain to participate in restaurant functions. The choral group or the stage band may perform in the restaurant over the holiday season and student art may be displayed on the Keg walls. The Keg may also make good use of the school gym for their staff recreation evenings. This year, the Keg contributed a $200 bursary for a 1988 MSS graduate student. Keg personnel will be invited to share their expertise in marketing with students in the Hospitality and Tourism class and with the Marketing students. These are Just some of the ideas for the Partnership. Both partners look forward to new ways of working together to ensure mutual benefit. "The better the rapport, the more you can share the resources of both," said Tidball. The partnership was signed by Langley School Board chairman, Marlene Grinnell, Stephen Tidball, representing the Keg in the Country, and Cam Gesy for Mountain Secondary. Program coordinator, Derek Bennett said, "This partnership, like the other 16, has many unique features. I find this willingness of Langley businesses and organizations to work with our schools very exciting." and Wednesday, December 7 at 7 p.m. for its Shakespeare '89 production of The Taming of the Shrew.

Many factors dictate the degree to which you are affected by alcohol, including your weight, health, state of mind, freedom from tension and the time period during which drinks are consumed. Even if your blood alcohol level is below the .08 legal limit for driving, you may still be impaired in terms of your physical and mental responses, reaction time and ability to detect i unexpected hazards. Towards a safe and happy holiday season, here are cocktail party tips for both guests and hosts, along with a series of appealing recipes for non-alcoholic cocktail alternatives, courtesy Sun-Rype Products Ltd. Party guests can help avoid overindulgence by keeping the following suggestions in mind: f Try to be rested, relaxed and in good health (and consider passing along your regets if you're not.) • If you plan to have a drink, don't go to a cocktail party with an empty stomach. (Food slows the absorption of alcohol into the blood stream.) • If you plan to stay for more than just a short while, be sure to eat while you're at the party. • Make your first drink nonalcoholic or light in alcohol and alternate alcoholic-non-alcoholic drinks throughout the evening. • Pace yourself by cultivating the arts of dawdling (on your way to the bar) and sipping. • Make sure you know what your're drinking - the punch may have more 'punch' than you expected. • Decide in advance when you're going to leave the party and stick to your decision. As considerate hosts and hostesses you should: • Have a good selection of nonalcoholic beverages on display at your bar area. • Present non-alcoholic cocktails as you would the alcoholic versions, in attractive glasses with tempting garnishes. • Always serve food when serving alcohol - high protein foods such as cheese and meat are especially *" desirable because they stay in the stomach longer. • Avoid serving multiple strength drinks and those containing mixes of potent liqueurs. • Be conservative with refills; try to get guests involved in activities other than drinking. t Offer coffee early in the party rather than at the night's end. Family, friends and designated drivers alike are sure to appreciate the following alternative, alcohol- free cocktails.

The Princess, Jade Pure (Theresa Labron), has never seen her own reflection and has been led to believe she is too ugly for any man to want to marry her. Conniving against her are her ,aunt, Precious Harp (Emma Hill), who is next in line to the throne and Covet Spring (Jay Shulte), the Chancellor of the southern Kingdom. The villainous pair are aided in their efforts to prevent Jade Pure's marriage (which must take place before her 18th birthday if she is to become Empress) by her hand-maidens, 21st, 22nd and 23rd cousins played by Lara Brodie, Roxanne Vaudreuil and Kim Waite. The hero of the piece, Road Wanderer, a student (Gerry Durrand), arrives on the scene with Small One (Terry Leonard), his pet dragon. 24th cousin (Blake Stadel), new-found friend of the student, becomes the unwilling foil in the plot against the princess. There are added festival dragons and merry chases.

LANGLEY - If Charlotte Diamond was a school teacher, her desk would be Uttered with shiny red apples. And lots of young school boys would have huge crushes on her. Youngsters in the Langley area will have the chance to Judge for themselves on Dec. 18, at 2 p.m. when Diamond sings at James Kennedy Elementary School, sponsored by Langley Arts Council. Speaking and singing in six languages, Diamond has a lovely, clear voice and her songs are simple and to the point. Her show is a varied exercise in song, mime and a little puppetry. But her strongest tools are her natural exuberance as a performer and her inventive sense of fun. Her care and concern about children and the world they face in the future comes forth in her music. "I want them to care about themselves and each other" says Diamond, whose songs include "Love Me For Who I Am" and "Four Hugs A Day". But her music also includes songs like "Why Do I Have to Have a Sister?" and "I Wanna Be a Dog", helping children to deal with all the emotions they face, whether fear, frustration, or anger. Perhaps it is this depth of vision and concern which causes adults to love her and flock to her as much as the children. Tickets are available only from Dec. 2 to 17, at: The Balloonery (9199 Glover Rd., Fort Langley), Rosewood Cottage (27256 Fraser Hwy., Aldergrove), Rainy Day Games (Willowbrook Shopping Centre), Country Lane Gifts Ltd.

We are pleased to report to our community that we had two local students participate in our youth exchange program, where we enabled them with our grant to travel to Japan and live with Japanese families, who are also members of the large international family of lions. We also awarded our annual scholarship to Anita Vanderbild of Aldergrove. Having seen some of the graduating students, Aldergrove should be proud of the new generation now coming up. We also participated in the annual Remembrance Day parade and laying a wreath at the cenotaph. We would like to congratulate our local Elks Lodge who are now 65 years young. At our most recent meeting we approved the funds to supply food hampers to 10 needy families for Christmas in the Aldergrove area. We were also awarded a certificate of merit for our participation in the CARE program of Lions International. At this time we would like to apologize to our faithful bingo players. For some time now, our licence has been held up in Victoria, but we shall resume as soon as we can. Unconstitutional? A B.C.

This historic occasion was recognized by the Tongan Ministry of Health at the Vaiola Hospital in Nuku'alofa. Stockdill, a member of the Department of Ophthalmology at UBC, volunteered his services through the Hawaiian Eye Foundation, a non-profit organization that sponsors eye care projects for Pacific islanders. The Polynesian Kingdom of Tonga, one of the world's last remaining constitutional monarchies is made up of 170 beautiful islands in the South Pacific near Fiji and Samoa. The people of Tonga are renowned for their hospitality. Stockdill was one of the leaders of the thirteen-member team of surgeons, technicians, and nurses, who treated 41 persons blinded from cataract, using modern methods of cataract removal and intraocular lens implantation. The team performed many other eye and lid surgeries, and examined 400 patients with tropical eye disease. The volunteers fitted over 200 pairs of eye glasses, and donated an operating microscope, cataract machine, eye instruments, medicines and supplies to the Island Kingdom. This was the first Tongan medical mission for Dr. Stockdill, who is a veteran of eye missions to Ecuador. Stockdill is a lens-implant expert specializing in microsurgical treatment of cataract, glaucoma, and other eye diseases in Langley. "In British Columbia, we remove cataracts when people lose their driver's license," said Dr. Stockdill. "But down there in the South Pacific, those poor people with cataracts can barely see their hand in front of their face. They surely needed our help." Dr. Stqckdill, a member of the Rotary Club of Langley Central, taught his surgical techniques to Samiuela Taum- oepeau, M.D., Tonga's only eye specialist. StockdiU's wife, Deanna, is a nurse who assisted the team and taught native nurses how to use the sophisticated equipment the group donated to the hospitals. Dr. Stockdill said that the Hawaiian Eye Foundation welcomes tax- deductible contributions for the purchase of medical equipment, instruments, eyeglasses and drugs. ' 'The rustic life which makes Tonga so unspoiled means that the people lack many advantages of modem living, including eye glasses and access to specialized medical care."

"So many of the natives were overjoyed just to receive their first pair of reading glasses," said Stockdill, who carried a suitcase full of spectacles with him from Langley. Persons wishing to make tax- deductible donations may write directly to the Hawaiian Eye Foundation, at 606 Kilani Avenue, Wahiawa, Hawaii 96786, or contact Dr. Stockdill at 20644 Eastleigh Cres., Suite 103, Langley, B.C.

Featured at the benefit are Valdy, James Kellaghan, Terry Brennan and Sarah McLachlan. All the artists are donating their time. The benefit is to raise money for continuing efforts to preserve the Point Roberts heronry, and will take place in the Boondocks' ballroom at 8 p.m. Funds raised will go towards protection of the Point Roberts heron colony and ultimately to purchase the land on which it lies. The Heron Preservation Committee believes the heronry - the largest in coastal B.C. and adjacent Washington - is of such size and importance that it could be a major attraction for visitors to the Point. Choristers at benefit ByPATPROZESKY ALDERGROVE - The November Whist Party at the O.A.P. Hall, sponsored by the Aldergrove Choral Group, was held Thursday last, and despite the inclement weather, eight tables were in play. Pauline McKay won ladies' first prize, Maudie MacPherson second. Joe Szasz was high man, with Ed Laird coming second. Paul Samec and Gardy Szasz won the Hidden Score prizes. No Whist party is scheduled for December. The next Whist party will be held Thursday, Jan. 26, 1989. Meanwhile, Friday, Dec. 2, 7:30 p.m., the Aldergrove Choral Group will be performing at the Aldergrove United Church, their fourth annual benefit in aid of the Food Bank. Students from Shortreed Elementary School will also be performing. Admission by donation. who come to enjoy its rural beauty and abundant wildlife. At the present time, the Committee is working on a variety of levels towards the preservation of the colony. In conjunction with the Washington State Department of Wildlife, a study is being carried out to determine the exact size and extent of the colony. Wildlife biologists on both sides of the border have come to recognize the heronry - which totals nearly 340 nests - as a vital provider of fresh, young genetic stock to the Great Blue Heron rookeries throughout the Georgia Strait and Puget Sound area. The Committee wants a protective fence as well as a buffer zone of at least 650 feet around the colony, and believes it is vital that the colony be maintained in its current habitat. Of the artists, Valdy needs no introduction. The veteran Canadian folk star has many Juno awards and hit records to his credit. Valdy has also composed a 'Heron Song' to help save the herons, and is in the process of making a video of the song. James Kellaghan is based in Calgary, although he is well-known on the coast. In the tradition of Stan Rodgers, James, with his high- spirited presentation and gift for crafting insightful songs, is being hailed as "an evocative singer, a contemporary bard" and "the West's newest folk star.'' Terry Brennan is a singer-songwriter who has performed across Canada whose music fits into the "nouveau folk-rock" category with a smattering of country. Sarah McLachlan has just hit the music scene in Vancouver with a bang. Her new album, 'Touch' and her performances in recent weeks have received nothing but rave reviews from critics and audiences alike. Tickets for the benefit, which are only $10, can be purchased through all VTC-CBO outlets, on the Point at Ben's Store and the Boondocks and at the door. $z__; jjfr ■&••# # W 'A €■ :.&$•.

Now I have a problem. I accepted a deposit on a van my son was selling, from a used car dealer in Langley. The dealer took the van. The next day we went to Langley to pick up the balance owing. At the same time my son corrected the year of the van instead of the year the dealer had been given at my home. Anyway, the dealer refused to give the balance or give up the van or the registration. Now what or where do I go to get this man to pay up what is due? And at the same time warn others of his business and his ethics. Signed: A Subscriber. Dear Subscriber, Obviously ydu haven't wasted any time trying to get ydur money because ydu have all ready started proceedings in small debts court, I hear. However, after talking to the gentleman in Langley I discovered that you had misrepresented the year of the van and that it is two i years older than the dealer believed when he bought it in good faith. He gave you $200 on deposit and was perfectly willing to close the deal unti the next day when ydur son told him the actual year of the van. The van has not been registered to his dealership and is awaiting you at his location. Save ydurself some grief and grievance and give the dealer back the $200 and pick up your van. Dear Annabelle, Can you believe the mess that the traffic gets into on 272nd Street between the Super Valu Mall and the liquor store? My Husband and I (and we aren't that old yet) almost go nuts trying to cross the road after shopping on one side and then driving across for our liquor on a Saturday. Don't say walk over, that's even more dangerous. If they could move the liquor store into the Mall it would certainly help. Signed: Terrified in downtown Aldergrove. Dear Terrified, If it was me running the town I would build a bridge from one side to the other, same as the ones they have decorating the malls in Vancouver and other busy places. But for all dur sakes I hope it never comes to that. Once concrete starts coming in it never seems to stop. Maybe someone else dut there has a solution. How abdut it, Alder- groovians?

HERB WILLIAMS When each of the various hunting seasons ends and you put away rifle or shotgun for several months it's a good idea to examine the stocks of your guns. Nicks and scratches may bring back memories of when each happened, but if not taken care of they can spoil the performance of your gun. Those breaks in the finish open up the wood to the penetration of moisture. Gunstocks which hold more than four percent moisture are not stable. The moisture causes warping and swelling, which upsets the gun's balance and can throw off its accuracy. These nicks and scratches might not matter in hot dry weather. But moisture can build up in a blacktail hunt through dripping forests on the west side of the mountains, or long hours exposed to rain and snow in a duck blind. Once water enters, the softened wood is damaged each time you fire. Soon you have gaps between the wood and the metal. This opens up the stock to more moisture, dirt and grit. It doesn't take too much of this to ruin a stock. The thing to do between seasons is clean up the battered stocks and refinish them with one of the deep-penetratring gunstock sealing products. Treat the inside of the stock too for moisture can enter there, especially on the end grain. Take it easy with gun oil which you use on the metal. Oil can damage even the hardest wood, because it is still vegetable fibre. Store you gun horizontally, not stock down. Oil can work its way down slowly, causing as much damage as water. The proprietor of a small-town grocery store, barber shop, gas station or garage could be one of your best sources of information for steelhead fishing. Often these people are avid steelheaders. If you get to know these local experts you can phone them the night before you plan a trip and leam exactly what shape the rivers in that area are in. They have no axe to grind and will tell it to you straight. This can prevent those disappointments of getting up early and driving a hundred miles only to find the river you wanted to fish is out of shape.

The program, endorsed by the GVRD Board of Directors, will provide sufficient water capacity for the two areas until at least the year 2011. Langley Township currently buys GVRD water under a contract arrangement to supplement its Trash gas use studied BURNABY - Proposals for the collection and utilization of gases from the old Coquitlam Landfill are being studied by the Greater Vancouver Regional District. The Landfill operated for eight years, closing in 1983. The GVRD is evaluating two proposals from private firms to use landfill gas to create energy for industry. A major consideration in the proposal is to 'improve the safety and air quality of the site by collecting the landfill gas in a controlled and efficient manner.' B.I.O. Gas Industries Inc. and Hipp Engineering Ltd. are the companies that have submitted proposals. Both are local firms. existing well system. The municipality is not at present a member of the regional water system but it is anticipated it will become a member in the near future. Surrey hat- been a member since 1950. Studies show that the supply potential of the GVRD's existing water sources is more than adequate to meet future needs, even assuming a very high degree of development over the entire region. The Langley and South Surrey areas would be served with water from the Coquitlam Lake system. Langley Township, Surrey and the GVRD will share the cost of the improvement program. The cost to each participant will be less than if each provided its own facilities. The project will be carried out in stages with the first stage to be completed in 1990.

Tower has them hopping MERRY CHRISTMAS to all our friends and customers from: Lynn, Joan, Pat & Pam (_imcQmk SS ■\Y BOUT1QUF D0U 0O°O MURRAYVniE - They're up in the air. About a new tower, that is. "I can't support it," says Aid. Terry Thorne, about a new telecommunications tower to be built on the hill at Willoughby. The orange and white structure, with flashing air traffic beacons, will reach 160 feet into the sky or some 80 to 100 feet above the tree line. It will be seen from most parts of Langley. "It will be an eyesore on the skyline," laments Thome. And besides, he says, the compensation to be paid by Cantel for the use of the site' 'is inadequate.'' Aid. Aubrey Searle, a B.C. Hydro employee, "likes" Jiydro towers, but like Thorne he does not fancy the cellular telephone tower. He calls it "ugly." It should be placed in a location where it would be "less conspicuous," he says. "Perhaps in Matsqui." But Aid. John Scholtens says cellular telephones are "a fact of life", and as far as the antenna tower is concerned, well, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Mayor John Beales, an aviator, has nothing against the tower, either. After the first year or so, he says, The greatest selection in sweaters. Plain or fancy. Acrylic or Lambswool/Angora.
