S^MM£WS£Wi^?wp^fH»mii ^^^^^^W^^^^^^^&^^^^^^^^^ 'Tax grab" adds to troubles LANGLEY - A shortfall of $471,000 in provincial grants to the township has dire consequences for the district. It's a 2.4 percent reduction in the municipal budget forecast and together with an anticipated additional $200 per home charge in school taxes leaves the district with the problem of balancing their own provisional budget, currently in the works. Aid. Aubrey Searle said the township will have difficulty "reconciling the budget with this shortfall" and scolded the province for not "cutting expenses as we thought they should have." Aid. Muriel Arnason countered that with federal transfer payments being reduced, and "resource-based revenues down, it behooves us to get the pencils out and do what housewives do when there's not enough money." Aid. John Campbell calls it a "simple outright tax grab. What happened to open government and consultation' We should resist any cutting just to get the province off the hook. It only delays the impact to the taxpayer." Campbell said the shortfall could "be more than adequately covered in the stablization fund" which has been closed to the municipalities this year as the province uses these funds for other purposes.

The site, previously proposed as a gravel pit and then as a dump for members of the GVRD (Cache Creek was chosen instead), sits between 264 and 272 Streets in the 7200-block, and overlooks the beautiful Glen Valley. Due to the numerous ravines and its soil quality, it has never been developed for farming, but like 80 percent of the township of Langley, it is within the Agricultural Land Reserve. A provincial study which looked for appropriate sites for a proposed new, publicly-funded University of the Fraser Valley identified it as one of the premiere locations for such an institution. However, the state of the economy appears to have put this proposal back in the freezer, let alone the backburner. The properly is owned by a Canadian company, CanKor, and its spokesman, John Bae disclosed late last year that it wishe^jq, donate,thetproperty^s^p^. be used as a branch campus of the Seoul, Korea-based Dankook University. It would be a residential institution primarily for Pacific Rim students seeking exposure to the North American way of life, and would grow in five stages to a capacity of 1,500 students, approximately the size of Trinity Western University. It would be entirely funded by private money and would grant Korean degrees. The proponents have also said that the key to its success would be interaction between the institution and the community. Its staffing, facilities and enrolment would be open to Canadian citizens. Municipal staff have expressed reservations about the location in a rural area and its need for services, and they have suggested that another site in the more urban area would be more appropriate. On Monday evening, architect Peter Oberlander appeared before council to argue that the site was still the most desireable and that the proposed university would be able to provide its own servicing at no "It's not an urban university," said Oberlander, who presented slides illustrating how they saw it "fitting into the landscape." He said the "development group is willing to provide water, sewer and road services... it's not a large complex or urbanized area... we can look after our own needs." He suggested that the township's existing P-3 zoning classification would apply to the proposal, and he said that the $63-million investment would provide an immediate 156 man- years of construction work, and a total of 570 man-years over the five phases. "It would create another 200 jobs in teaching and operations.'1 He said investors want to "proceed soon... we'd like to open in 18 to 24 months." Aldermen John Campbell and Muriel Arnason voiced some sympathy for the counterproposal, and Campbell suggested that it be deferred another seven days for reconsideration by hall staff. However, alderman Steve Ferguson "took exception" to what aid. Aubrey Searle called Langley to join the Union of B.C. Municipalties protest against the move. "The province took the peak and left us the valley." The township had been looking at a five percent increase in the coming year's budget to cover inflation and growth but now must consider an 11 percent decrease, said finance officer Steve Wilcox. Staff has also projected an increase in water and sewer service costs to $209 per year, and double that by the end of the decade. This is higher than many neighboring districts because the province eliminated their 75 percent sharing formula in recent years, which raised the cost of local service development during Langley's recent growth spurt. Aid. Steve Ferguson accused the province of "dumping secondary treatment costs on the GVRD" but aid. John Campbell said "That's a bullet no one can dodge. We all have the opportunity now to do something about the envkonment." VOL.34 NO.13 THURSDAY. APRIL 9. 1992 40 CENTS Established 1957 3089-272nd Street Fax:856-5212 Phone:856-8303 STAFF ASKED TO SHARE BURDEN School deficit cut means no wage increases in '93 LANGLEY - The school board has received a plan from treasurer Paul Makortoff to cut and pay back an expected $36- million deficit over the next two school years. Trustees will vote on the plan at their April 21 budget meeting. The district was expecting a $1.25-million deficit this school year, and another $2.5-million in 1992-'93. Measures taken in recent months mean that the board will cut $157,000 from the current deficit by June 30, reducing it to $l.l-million. Half of this deficit will be repaid next year, and the rest in 1993-'94. In 1992-'93, the district has reduced expected expenses by $2,566,274, to bring the final budget to the $94,849,268 amount expected from the ministry of education for the next school year. Makortoff cautions that the plan is based on the presumption that there are no negotiated salary increases for 1992-'93 and said that "every attempt will be made to cover staff reductions through attrition." Estimates are that there will be reductions of 26 teachers, six CUPE support personnel and five administrative officers. Administration has cut over half a million dollars from their central budget, which include such things as supplies, district pro-d day and painting projects. A $392,926 grant "from the ministry for special learning resources will be instead applied to the deficit. Makortoff said, "The district will be able to keep intact most of its programs and the district will be able to retire the deficit with the exception of the $500,000 to be carried over to 1993-'94. Clearly, the budget reductions are of grave concern... It is our belief that Langley continues to be underfunded and that we need to continue at all levels to press the government for recognition of Langley's educational needs." Trustee Linda Moir told The Star that the provincial block funding formula needs close examination. "It doesn't work." She praised superintendent Emery Dosdall for doing a good job in a very difficult situation. "He involved and encouraged the worker groups... 82 percent of the budget goes to salaries... and that opportunity wasnt really taken advantage of by some of the groups. "When we settle contracts, we don't want to take money from programs. We can't give away what we can't afford, otherwise there will be layoffs. I wish they'd all get involved because we have to settle this together." PUBLICATIONS MAIL REGISTRATION NUMBER 1270 Postage Prepaid, Aldergrove, B.C. VOX 1A0 NEWS? CLASSIFIED? SUBSCRIPTION?

He will be eligible for parole in 14 years. Caissie was let out on parole two weeks previous to the June 21 and 23 Matsqui-area crimes. He had been in and out of correctional institutions since the age of 15. Justice Leggatt said the pre-sentence report's assessment of Caissie was "one of the most pessimistic I have ever read in my nine years on the bench" G ravel pit proposal to hear from neighbors, May4 LANGLEY - A resident near the' proposed site for a new municipal gravel pit, called Site 19, is worried that it may already be a "fait accompli." David Miles of the 22500-block 2nd Avenue said the prospect of 200,000 truck trips and the effect on local water wells has not received due consideration and discussion by the neighborhood, and he fears that the draft plan may well be set in stone. "We want some questions answered," said Miles, who allowed that there was a need for a local supply of gravel. Councilors assured him that approval has not been granted yet, and that a public meeting would be held on May 4 at Lochiel Schoolhouse to get residents' input. "Don't point at (municipal) engineers, the buck stops here," said aid. Aubrey Searle referring to council. Aid. Muriel Arnason suggested that, "there are other ways to bring gravel in... by barge, for example." Presently, the nearest gravel pits are in Matsqui, along the Langley border. Langley has had a moratorium on gravel pits for the past couple of years, due to the outcry of residents who deplore the enterprise. Mayor John Beales, who lives adjacent to a former gravel pit, received loud hoots of laughter from the gallery when he suggested that, "Five of the most beautiful residential developments in Langley are on mined out gravel pits." Embarrassed, he qualified that with the observation that the area isn't as beautiful as it was in his youth. WW EVERYTHING MUST GO! INCLUDING THE KITCHEN SINK!!!

Minister responsible, Art Charbonneau said, "The ministry has determined that its priority must be the protection of the existing system." The total budget has declined to $823.76-million from last year's $983.59-million, but while capital construction has been cut in half, there have been increases to maintenance and rehabilitation. Negotiations with 28 private maintenance contractors are completed and amount to $281- 8-million. The capital and rehabilitation program in this area includes a realignment of Highway 11 in Abbotsford, to connect with the new Canada Customs facility under construction in Huntingdon, as well as two arterial projects in Langley. These latter projects are the construction of the Jacob Haldi Bridge on Glover Road, leading to the Fort Langley terminus of the Albion Ferry, and the upgrading to four lanes of 200 Street between 72 and 86 Avenues, as well as new left turn lanes, sidewalks, curbs, gutters and lighting. Work will also be done to Highways 1, 5, 7, 7A, 15, 17, 91, 99, 99A, 101, and arterial work at Middle Arms Bridge and Scott Road.

LANGLEY AIRPORT Councilors argue philosophy over local university proposals From front... "Howe Street" type proponents receiving what they perceived as special treatment compared to that given the ordinary citizens who are customarily given short shrift when their applications for rezoning come up every week. (Editor's note: Oberlander wasn't wearing a tailored suit and Guccis, but it's hard to understand how proponents of a $63-million institution would have received different treatment if they'd been wearing jeans and Chicago Bulls starter jackets.) Searle took a harder line, pointing out that servicing was just one concern and that "location was far more important." He was also critical of what he saw as "the presumption that township property should be sold or leased to a private university. We've (council) never discussed disposal of this land." Oberlander replied that there was "no presumption or assumption" -that two small township parcels adjacent to the larger private land owned by CanKor should be turned over to them. He said the two properties were "landlocked" and only accessible through their property and, "We only asked if you were willing to lease or sell?" Their proposal did not require these properties for development, but would suit the overall plan for walking and riding trails. Searie continued with his speculation that it could grow from 1,500 enrolment to "30,000" and lead to the "entire urbanization of the hillside. That's a grave concern." Oberlander replied that there was no desire to "replicate UBC or SFU" and they only sought to "benefit from the (pastoral) setting." At this point it got a bit uglier, when a man in the audience rose, out of order, with charges that the proposed university would be only "open to one race." Judging from the murmur of approval, he had some sympathizers in the crowded hall. From the outset, the proponents have said that enrolment would be open to those throughout the Asian continent, and all of these races are substantially different from the predominantly Han people of Korea, who have considerably more historical reason to bear grudges against other Asians. Enrolment would also be open to North Americans, based on the same principles as Trinity Western: those who meet qualifications must also be able to afford the cost of private education. However, the concept is to provide an alternative to Asians who are limited in their applications to attend publicly- funded universities on this continent. Later that evening, when council discussed renewal of a hangar lease at the municipal airport, Searle suggested that the airport land is desireable for the proposed University of the Fraser Valley, and should not be locked into long-term leases. Campbell retorted that the site "ranks least", and aid. Trudi •Campen noted that other leases at the airport extend far past that sought by Medco Hangar Lease Ltd. Beales, who owns a business at the airport had excused himself from the lease renewal discussion, but later observed that "in no case would any university proposal meet the Official Community Plan," and would requke variance to go ahead. Searle, once again brought up the CanKor proposal, and perhaps because of the late hour, suggested it originated from "Saigon." He was embarrassed by the gaffe, but to be fair, in this age of historical revisionism, perhaps General MacArthur's "Yalu River Line" and Heartbreak Ridge has been moved a mere three thousand miles to the southeast to the next peninsula. At this point, aid. John Scholtens brought up his pet theme about council's "agonizing over the ALR," and the dilemmas it creates for people who aren't able to farm a good portion of the 80 percent of Langley that's in the ALR. "We have one alderman who says we can't cut trees," to develop land for farming, and he brought up the GVRD proposal for their "Green Zone" which, at this point, doesn't exist save for Langley. He said it's virtually impossible for people .to meet the "intimidating" demands of the assessment authority of $2,400 per acre return required for farm tax status. "My heart goes out to people... there's nothing they can do with that land," said Scholtens. In the end, council wearily agreed to allow Medco their lease renewal, and Oberlander and CanKor another kick at the can next week.

APRIL 9. 1992 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We need guidance Editor, The Star, Sir, It is a grave mistake for most constitutional proponents to talk endlessly about reforms without arriving at concensus and goals. Most discussants' point of views have been polarized and there is no end of their polarization. It leads always to catastrophe and bitter feelings among people and provinces. Do we really want a good constitution for Canada? Do you think the present discussions among the elitist leaders about Triple E senate, distinct society for Quebec, aboriginal rights, etc. to be added to the old constitution look effective now and in the future? Do our so- called leaders have in mind the general welfare of the Canadian people and the security and stability of Canada and its people now and in the future? I believe that our political leaders and constitutional experts wasted so much time, efforts and millions of the taxpayers money discussing and proposing some clauses and statements to be incorporated into the document without realizing the gravity of their blunders. The present constitution patriated from Great Britain in 1982 still contained the documents of BNA Act including the ammendments. It is archaic, inflexible and uninteresting and could not be understood by the majority of Canadians who are simple-minded and plain in their reading, comprehension and thinking. It does not even have the verve, vigor and dynamism in its language. It does not even look like the Constitution of Canada because of so many articles/sections embodied with amendments, different amendments, and work more amendments subject to personal interpretations, legal interpretations and various ■interpretations ad nuseum! There are so many amendments you are going to refer to in annotated amendments outside the document. No .wonder legal experts have a field day shoveling funds into their own accounts because of their advantage of legal interpretation. And worse the Canadian people are simply left stupid, confused and bewildered. 9 No wonder why there are confusion and bickerings among so-called constitutional experts and leaders in our country today. Their point of views are astray and we don't even agree with one another. I Why can't we frame our own constitution that would express the ideals and will of the Canadian people? The mandate of the people of Canada must be fully and explicitly understood that they are a sovereign people and that their ideals and will must be written into the document as a living testament that they are the most important people on earth! Take a look at the preamble of the constitution of 1982. Does it say why and by whom the constitution of Canada was framed or written? Does it say something about the framer(s) concept and ideals regarding the general welfare of the Canadian people and what we should do to our';%'c6untry$l natural resources, the patrimony of our nation, and what our people should be enjoying in a democratic society under what kind or type of government or regime? Do we want a regime of uncertainty, injustice, insecurity and all the negative aspects of life? Or do we want peace, liberty, justice, equality to dominate in our life and society? By all means we should promulgate our own constitution that has meaning, purposes and goals. We should write our own constitution under the guidance of our almighty LORD GOD and His Holy SpMt if we care enough to be a sovereign people, and, our Nation in peace, justice, stability and on-going growth and progress.

Even in these cases lots of thought should be put into the decision because life is sacred. Except for these allowances., I believe abortion should be Frightening prospects Editor, The Star, Sir, The Chamber of Commerce luncheon last week was the most thought provoking I've had the opportunity to attend. Speaker Robert Wenman supplied some very interesting figures. According to him, projections are for our area population to more than triple (75,000 to 250,000) by 2010. 2010 is just 17- 1/2 years away, and the increase is starting now. The Matsqui/Abbotsford/Mission area is my personal choice of where to live. It has most everything I want in walking or bicycling distance. However, it also has rapidly deteriorating ak quality. And tripling our population will hardly improve this problem. I don't suggest building a brick wall around the area. I do suggest that we make our politicians at all levels responsible for servicing these bloated numbers of newcomers. Lose our well-documented complacency. Phone, write, visit in person any political type you know — municipal, federal, provincial. Ask why we have to fight so many other vehicles to get to work. Hourly commutes twice a day will increase threefold unless we are supplied with rapid transit to the jobs in the Lower Mainland. With the taxes we pay, we shouldn't have to be thirty years behind other comparable areas in the field of transit. REGINA DALTON Abbotsford illegal. Medical science has proven that the unborn baby begins its development very early. The nervous system starts at the end of the third week, at four weeks the embryo has a body with a head, a trunk, and a tail. The heart begins to beat a few days earlier at 26 days. At 5 weeks the nose and the cheeks begin to show under the eyes and fingers are starting to appear. At eight weeks the unborn baby has everything that will be found in the fully developed human being. There is no doubt that this baby is alive and living very early and is a little human being by eight weeks. Most abortions take place after the eight week mark At this point they are sweeping away life that even looks like a baby. The thought sickens me. The unborn child cannot protect itself, so we must protect this new life. The rights of the unborn child must be balanced by the rights of the mother. It is only when the rights of the mother are in serious danger, as I have outlined in my opening paragraph," that the rights of the mother outweigh the unborn child's. In all other cases the rights of the unborn child must be recognized and upheld. If the mother doesn't want to have a child, then she can give it up for adoption There are very long waiting lists of excellent parents who are unable to have children of thek own and who would love to adopt a child to make thek lives complete. No one has ever said that a mother has to keep her child once it is born. All people must accept the consequences of thek actions. If we choose to have sexual relations, we choose the consequences automatically. We cannot be allowed to avoid the consequence of simply because inconvenient. JESSICA KEARL Langley_ Let the public do it by themselves pregnancy it is Editor, The Star, Sk, It was shocking to hear that the BC Transportation Museum is to be closed. Former MLA Bill Reid may have been instrumental in bringing the Museum to Cloverdale, but in my opinion, he, or whoever was responsible for overseeing the Museum, seemed to have no idea of managing it properly. From what I gathered, in the early years, the Museum had volunteer dkectors with a genuine interest in the collecting, restoration and preservation of our BC history on wheels. Then someone, in thek wisdom, decided to hire a manager and whatever staff he needed, along with twelve paid dkectors to look after a paid staff of two at the Museum, and drain off taxpayers dollars. It also seems despite a substantial amount spent on advertising, most BC people and tourists don't know of the Museum's existence. There are also rumours of moving part of the collection to Victoria and selling the remainder. This does not make economic or common sense. A lot of time, work, money and volunteer labours of love have gone into the development of this Museum. The rental costs at the present Cloverdale location are about one-fifth of regular commercial space. Plans are in the making, and have the support of local government, to include the Museum of Flight and possibly a runway to be located adjacent to the existing Museum. Where would you find these advantages in Vfctoria? Cloverdale is the centre of BCs most densely populated area as well as being ideally located for tourists who do not wish to wait and pay for the ferry ride to Victoria. In regards to selling off part of all of the collection, this goes contrary to the wishes of the people who donated vehicles and time to preserve part of our heritage. The present Museum has attracted about one hundred or more volunteers with varied skills and abilities and, from what I have heard, work well with the two dedicated paid staff members. Why risk losing this team 'which it has taken years to build? I urge the government to please take a hard look at reversing the decision to close the Transportation Museum. Our former government has bungled in many areas and it seems the Transportation Museum is in trouble because of bureaucratic mismanagement. Most car, truck, rail and aviation enthusiasts, along with other heritage supporters, had no idea the Museum was in trouble. Please give the community a chance to rally behind the Museum. Don't destroy our heritage and the opportunity to build a worid class Museum in Cloverdale.

APRIL 9. 1992 CFBChilliwack § celebrates 50 years CHILLIWACK - This community is celebrating the 50th anniversary of Canada Forces Base Chilliwack with a wide variety of activities this week. The fun began on April 3 and continues till this Sunday, April 12. The base is closely tied to CFS Aldergrove, which acts as the communications centre- for the Pacifk. The Chilliwack base is headquarters for Aldergrove service personnel. A re-enactment of the April 24, 1942 arrival of 1,200 troops to CFB Chilliwack from the old City Hall, will take place this Saturday, April 11, along the original route. The base was established because of the war-time security threat, intensified by the bombing of Pearl Harbour, and the inadequacies of training facilities at Dundurn, Sask. It was no more than a muddy hog farm, littered with stumps and deadwood. The men quickly transformed the site into a base, with an old farmhouse converted to headquarters, the barn becoming a Quartermaster's store, and a chicken coop became the Company orderly room. Many townspeople opened thek homes to provide accommodation for the newly arrived families. Diligent work turned the 558 hectares into a base, with the fkst living huts built by September that year, followed soon by rifle ranges and more. Today it's a virtually <&&j& self-contained community. Another Aldergrove connection is George Ives, the 110 year old Boer War veteran. Now a resident of Jackman Manor, during the '40s he lived on a Sumas farm, where he provided water daily to the soldiers. His farm became a sunogate home for many soldiers. "A lot of these men used to come to our farm where they were welcome," says Ives. "Some liked to play cards, others helkped milk cows or helped with the haying just for something to do." Ives is looking forward to spending time in the Trench, the social gathering place for military personnel and families, during the 50th anniversary celebrations. Normally used as a drill hall, the Trench is filled with 20,000 sandbags, camouflage netting, peacekeeping and survival displays. The Minefield Dance Floor is opposite the Ammo Dump, Sergeant Sam and Bailey Bridge Bars — a place to reminisce. Events scheduled include Saturday morning's pancake breakfast at Chilliwack Exhibition Grounds, a flying demonstration by the Snowbirds, and the ceremony at old City Hall. On Sunday, there's the open house, offering everything from museum tours to special displays, and the opportunity to talk to the "sappers"fksthand about thek Kuwait experiences.

City voters reject arena, but choose new police and garbage services LANGLEY - City voters overwhelmingly turned down a referendum for a new ice arena, Saturday, but approved the call for civic garbage collection and a separate police force from the current city-township sharing formula. Township aid. Steve Ferguson, a recreation champion, said he was "disappointed" with the arena vote, as it would have alleviated the pressure on the two municipal arenas in Aldergrove and Brookswood. However, he observed that the recent provincial budget has hit homeowners with big increases and probably was a big factor in the no vote. On Saturday, April 4, the people of Aldergrove, along with many dignitaries came out to wach the moving of the B.C. Tel Heritage Building. The building is to be restored. The new location for the building is on the comer of 271 St. and 32 Ave. It will become a museum and tourist attraction and the Heritage Society offers their thanks to all who made this event possible. • photos by Marie Jensen See also page 16.

APRIL 9. 1992 NEW RULES NEXT YEAR Soccer teams end a successful season By GEORGE GREATBANKS ALDERGROVE - So we arrive at the end of another soccer season, it seems like only yesterday that teams took the field for the fkst games of 1991/92, yet here we are, all over bar the shouting. Aldergrove's travelling teams were in the thick of things once again, bringing home more silverware than in the previous season, which only serves to emphasize the success of thek grading system. In Division 4, the Albion were second in divisional play, but came away as Cup Winners. The Hawks in Division 5, were once again second in divisional play, but disappointed their following by an early cup exit. In Division 6 play, both the Iron Hawks and Blizzard lost play-off games to determine second place in the standings, while in Division 7 the Raiders went one better than last season by doing the "Double" as League and Cup Champions. In Division 3 and 8, the Eagles and Warriors were both in the thick of things all season, both finishing in the top thkd of thek respective standings. One cannot fail to be impressed by the phenomenal success of the Aldergrove club, who just 3 short seasons ago, were regarded as an easy two points by most teams they faced. Not any more, they now rank among the most feared teams in thek respective levels of play, success of course breeds it own brand of problems. As teams begin preparation for 1992/93, many of them are aware that the competition in thek respective divisions is insufficient to challenge thek players resolve and are seriously considering moving up a notch to the next highest level of competition. To that end, many teams have akeady commenced holding team trials for the new season. With the change in BCYSA's qualifying dates for players, that comes into effect for 1992/93, it is imperative that teams, not only in Aldergrove, but throughout the province, take a long hard look at thek rosters, because some players will have another 5 months qualifying time for each age group that played in 1991/92. This means many of them who played in a certain level, are once again eligible for that same level in the coming season Players are invited to try out for any of the "Travelling" teams that will be fielded in 1992/93, so if you wish to come and join one of the most progressive clubs in the Valley, one dedicated to the individual player rather than to numbers, give us a call and you are welcome to come and look us over. For information on teams in your age group, please feel free to call George Greatbanks at 852- 8828, Norm Cebula at 856-8376 or Ed Mazur at 856-1645- Any of these three will be able to point you in the right direction and put you in touch with the coach of the team in your age group. Come on, give us a try, it could be the best decision you have ever made. Several students from Aldergrove Gima-Ha Shoto- Ryu Club recently won trophies at the 1992 Steveston Karate tournament.

APRIL 9. 1992 DIFFERENT STORIES ABOUND Chrisholme's future still up in the air LANGLEY - The controversy over - Chrisholme's pending closure still rages but mayor John Beales says his meetings with its president and directors provided a greatly different version of events and circumstances than that offered by its supporters. A meeting was held between MLA Gary Farrell-Collins and interested parties last week. Participants included the municipal government, school board, Chrisholme staff and Aldergrove Kinsmen. The Kinsmen have prepared a detailed report to support their proposal to take over operation of the home for troubled boys. They propose that membership be opened to the community and predict that 200 would be established within weeks of its re-establishment. This would enable the program to earn wider community support, financially and talent-wise, say Kinsmen. The new society would review the program, develop a policy manual and a five-year plan, ready for re-opening the home July 1. Chrisholme Society will close the home at the end of June. Municipal council has also ■ received a letter from Chrisholme Society, dated March 24, reiterating their belief that it "is no longer financially viable." The letter from president Roy Booth said the school enrolment has declined to six from 25, while costs have continued to rise. Booth pointed out that "the demand is for 24 hour care 365 days of the year, however, ■ Chrisholme closes down for spring and summer breaks and No again to MX racers LANGLEY - An application from the Canadian Motocross Association to lease the old Jackman Pit racing centre was defeated by council.

In addition... there is a trend toward the provision of services in the communities in which the children normally reside. The society plans to sell its property and use the proceeds, after expenses, to assist other charitable organizations with goals similar to its own." Council also received a letter from dentist Danny Tryon who offered his support to the program. "I feel the school should continue because it works!" Beales said his meetings with the two groups left him with "two different stories... and some allegations I would not want to repeat." He said all information has been forwarded to Farrell- Collins "for clarification" and was awaiting response before taking the matter further.

Meeting here April 15-18, members of the B.C. Wildlife Federation are to debate future direction of the province's fish and wildlife resources. The theme of the convention asks the question, "Forests: After the Confrontation — What?" "Now that there is clear indication of rounding the corner and turning our backs on many of the bad resource management practices of the past we have to be sure, and have a plan for all eventualities, of where we are taking fish and wildlife management in the next 10 to 50 years," says Otto Andersen, BCWF president. "With a reduction in confrontational issues, particularly in our forests, we have to move forward and have answers as to where we go from here. "Our federation has been on the leading, edge of the citizen conservation movement for many years. For example this upcoming convention is our 36th convention. We anglers and hunters were working and paying for better resource management before many of the general public knew there was likely to be any problem with such things as clear cut logging and over fishing our saltwater fisheries," Andersen said. This theme of where do we go from here will be the main topic of the keynote speaker, chief of the California department of fish and game, Terry M. Mansfield. He will be suggesting that the challenges faced by California now, will be the challenges facing B.C. in the near future. Mansfield will set the scene for the discussion on how far government, resource industries and anglers and hunters will have to go to combat anti- management groups. Also highly placed on the convention agenda are such things as land use and public access, the Columbia River Treaty, parks, pollution and hazardous waste. Among the many other things taking up the time of the delegates will be a fundraiser on the night of Friday, April 17, in the Delta Airport Inn and election of a new president as Andersen completes.his term. on all items in food, Family Fashions, Hardware, Argo and Fencing.

Car buffs and the Museum open, local historians attended a large rally in the Poll results please Scholtens LANGLEY - Municipal councilors seemed to delight in the results of a recent Langley Chamber of Commerce telephone poll that found the vast majority of nearly 200 businesspeople in the city were in favor of studying amalgamation of the city and township of Langley. "It's just incredible how resounding the support is for a study," chuckled aid. John Scholtens, a longtime champion of the cause. "It would give them (taxpayers) a chance to get rid of a whole set of us (councilors)." Langley city councilors have reacted earlier to the proposal as though it was a shotgun wedding, and one councilor sang a ditty of rejection at city hall a couple months back. However, Scholtens says the unrequited township should "urge (the city) to participate in a study so all can express thek opinions." Mayor John Beales said that despite the chamber pressure, city politicians are still saying that "we can meet so long as we didn't discuss the A word." Future gardensforthe city? LANGLEY - Municipal taxpayers here will end up being "greenskeepers for the GVRD" if the "very expensive" proposal of a Green Zone' is applied to the regional district, says aid. John Scholtens. Aid.

The discussion on regional district head Gordon Campbell's call for a "green zone" in the region was supported by aid. Aubrey Searle, who said council "must co-operate." But Scholtens called it platitudes: "What's Gordon Canpbe" done for "s? The ones to pay the price is us. How much have they sent us to pay for sewer extension to Aldergrove?" Scholtens predicted lower mainland living in "rabbit hutches... with Langley paying the price." Aid.

Abbotsford wells safe for use ABBOTSFORD % Health officials have determined that Abbotsford's municipal wells is safe to drink, after looking for traces of almost 120 pollutants. Concerns have been expressed about drinking water pollution because of the residents who have suffered a variety of ailments, commonly referred to as somatic chemically induced dysfunction syndrome or SCIDS. The six municipal wells and several private wells used by SCIDS sufferers were tested by the provincial health ministry during November. The municipal wells were determined safe for public use, however, minute traces of nitrates and a wood preservative were found at barely detectable levels. These wells will be retested, but Dr. Bud Webb, medical health officer said the levels were so minute that they posed no threat to anyone. ! Nitrate levels were less than in previous years- and the traces of wood preservative were less than one percent of the guideline for safe Canadian drinking water. The major finding was that there were three private wells found contaminated by coliform or fecal bacteria, which indicates sewage pollution.

APRIL 9. 1992 Workshop focusses on living a good life ABBOTSFORD - Glenda Stan- deven was faced with a strong possibility of dying in her early 30s when she was diagnosed with cancer. She subsequently lost a leg to the disease. That was four years ago. Today her exuberance and optimism are inspirational to all who meet her. Standeven, one of the organizers of the Living With Cancer support group and a member of the education committee of the Canadian Cancer society has instituted "On Death and Dying", a workshop co-sponsored by the University College of the Fraser Valley. The workshop will be presented twice; on Friday, April 24 from 7-10 p.m. at the UCFV Abbotsford campus and Saturday, April 25 from 9 a.m.- noon at the Chilliwack campus. The cost is $5- "After the surgery my doctor told me with this kind of cancer if you get past 10 years they consider it cured," says Standeven. "I decided I'm not going to put my life on hold for 10 years living in fear that this might be the year it returns. But I had a lot of fears about dying that I had to deal with before I could get on with living. I wanted to find out as much as I could about death and dying so that I could then put all my energy and time into living life to the max for as long as I was alive." Standeven did a great deal of research on the subjects of death and life after death, including interviews with people who had come close to death or who had died and come back. She now spends much of her active life sharing her experience, strength and hope with others. Standeven saw a special news series on near-death experiences among children and was so impressed she phoned the facilitator, Kimberly Gark Sharp, in Seattle and asked if she could come to this area to do a presentation. "Kimberly is incredible," says Standeven. "I'm so excited that she's able to do this for us. It's going to be a very uplifting experience for everyone, whatever their reasons for attending." Gark Sharp is the president of the Seattle International Association for Near Death Studies, a guest lecturer for the University of Washington School of BIB Glenda Standeven believes in "living life to the fullest" which for her includes supporting and educating people with cancer.

V2T 4W1 (BESIDE SAFEWAY) 1859-7115 IN CONCERT THIS MONTH THE ALDERGROVE STAR. APRIL 9. 1992 11 Conlee, Murphey doing what they do best COQUITLAM - The Boone County Cabaret is the place to be this month for fans of the country music styles of John Conlee and Michael Martin Murphey. Conlee takes to the stage on Sunday, April 19, followed by Murphey on Tuesday, April 28. Boone County is on Burnette Avenue, right off the northbound Burnette exit of Highway 1. Michael Martin Murphey The modern and large club has excellent stage facilities, so there isn't a bad seat in the house. However, the sooner you buy your ticket and the earlier you show up, the better chance you will have to rub shoulders with two of the finest performers in country music today. Conlee has a string of hit records going back to 1976's Backside of Thirty, and he very much like the persons in the songs he sings. He's a gifted entertainer, but not into the glitz and hype of showbiz. He'd rather spend his off-the-road time with his wife and three children, working his 32 acre farm outside Nashville, or his hobbies of woodworking and gunsmithing. Bom and raised on a Kentucky farm, Conlee quickly volunteered for the Willie Nelson Farm Aid concerts. "I'm not a radical or rebel, but I will stand up and speak my mind on issues that I feel affect me, my family and others, and the farm crisis remains one of those issues." His first big hit was Rose Colored Glasses, and his unique voice has brought many more: Common Man, Domestic Life, Mama's Rockin' Chair, and more.There have been 29 singles, of which 26 reached the top 20, and eight took the number one spot. A Grand Ole Opry member since 1981, he's just released his Fellow Trvelers album on the 16th Avenue label, a division of the Opryland Music Group. "I don't do songs that I don't dig, and the songs that I end up doing, hard country or not, are songs that have a lot of soul. The singers that really get to me are people who do those soul-type songs, and a lot of the people who do that are hard country: George Jones, Merle Haggard, Lefty Frizzell, John Anderson. "But I also love Ray Charles; he has always been my idol. And I love Otis Redding and Aretha Franklin. That's where my head is, I guess, anything that has a lot of emotion and soul." The portly, highly articulate but low-key Conlee is on the road about two-thirds of every year doing shows, but it's a rare treat to see him here. Enjoy. Michael Murphey put the Martin in his name to distinguish him from the same-named movie This Week: Savage West For the Best in Traditional Country and Honky Tonk...

John Conlee actor, and he. first hit the pop charts backnfijhe early '70s with his story of a horse named Wildfire, and Carolina In The Pines. He lives in New Mexico, but often visits family that he has in the Vancouver area. His best moments are his recent Cowboy Songs album on Warners, and its newer Cowboy Christmas version of what he calls: "The music of my people, my land, my culture and my own life." They are a major thematic milestone in a career that's always been first rate. "We talk in this album of ropes, dust and work more than guns, sunsets and dance halls," says Murphey of the realistic, stereotype-free songs of the two albums. Quoting award-winning western writer Elmer Kelton, he says, "There were more cowboys killed by lightning than by guns in the Old West." "All the songs, old and new, were written by people who have 'cowboy'd'; people who've done it, including myself." Songs like Yellow Rose Of Texas, Red River Valley and Home On The Range are balanced with Murphey's sardonic What Am I Doing Here? The result is both minute detail and sweeping grandeur, both dignity and farce within an epic group of themes built up an image at a time. The Texas-born Murphey started out as a songwriter for the Monkees, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Flatt & Scruggs, Willie Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker and John Denver, but his own singing career is well-established since the mid-'70s. He's also put energy into causes such as the Native Indians, reconciling environmentalists with ranchers on water issues and lobbying the state legislature for an emergency medical bill. But he's happiest on stage. "I'm most comfortable personally when I'm on a stage singing a western-style song. That's what makes me happy, it's what I do best." Tickets for the shows are available at Boone County, Gabby's Cabaret and Langley Hotel. cin e. p l twgssSPm CINEMA CLEARBROOK CINEMAS 32500 SOUTH FRASER WAY • 850-2233 SHADOW AND THE FOG: Nightly 9:15 p.m. Ends Thursday.

APRIL 9. 1992 "Fallen Angels" are brilliant, funny Langley Arts Council calendar of events by SYLVIA LANGMANN Noel Coward's witty and frivolous play, Fallen Angels is as appealing to audiences today as in 1925 when it was first staged. Back then it was reviewed as shocking and degenerate but was, nevertheless, a success. The sentiments expressed are just as timely and Coward writes with an accurate understanding of women's sensitivities that the audience empathizes at the portrayal of the characters and can readily laugh at the humor of the situation. The visual effect created by the set designer Lesley Macaulay takes us to a high society flat of the middle class residing in the upper crust area of London in the 1920s. High towering columns sunounded by art- deco, a window nook and a huge grand piano seem to melt into a hue of pinks that dominate the stage and remind us of the bubbly pretentious lifestyle of that era. It's softened by the right amount of lighting that seduces the senses, and audiences lose sense of time. Acclaimed costume designer Adrienne Clarkson has really shown talents dressing the cast members in classy chic and debonair outfits that were at the height of fashion. The husbands, Fred and Willy (Craig Davidson and Russell Roberts) looked somewhat comical in their golfing outfits both wearing similar diamond patterned cardigans with somewhat matching diamond socks up to their knees, topped by tweed bloomers and two toned brogues on their feet. Standing beside each other they were an amusing sight. The star roles are performed by two of Canada's most acclaimed acting talents. Camille Mitchell plays Julia who is gorgeous with her tight wavy bobbed fair hair and shimmering pink, body hugging evening dress. Conine Koslo as Jane is giggly and bubbly and more "old sardine can with a few fins left in it." Brilliant acting is shown in a very difficult second act as the girls yell at each other. Koslo has a realistic infectious giggle, but she lost herself for a moment when she was supposed to be serious but found her role so funny that her face went into stiff contortions as she tried not to chortle. She couldn't hide it and the audience roared with laughter as they appreciated how terribly funny the prose of Noel Coward is. Coward is considered a genius and one of the greatest playwrights of the English language. As a relief from the exuberant ladies their matronly, over educated maid appears as somewhat of an ear sore. The know-it-all Saunders is played by Christine Willes. Susan Cox, the director has produce a smashing play that uses each moment to surprise and delight, with every angle a pleasure to see. This play is well worth attending and offers jolly good fun. The play starts at 8 p.m. and runs Monday through Saturdays with matinees at 2:30 on Saturday .The play ends April 18. For tickets and information call the Playhouse Box Office, 873- 3311 or visit any Ticketmaster outlet.

The "Fallen Angels" have awaken that morning each with a "presentiment that something damnable will happen". True to intuition they each receive a card sent by Maurice. The suave ex- lover of both ladies, from their pre-married period, Maurice (Anthony Bekenn) is truly elegant and would turn any woman's head; a sophisticated gigolo of the most endearing sort that has written to Jane and Julia telling them that he will be aniving. Each of them reminisce about those passionate days so long gone, and remind themselves that they are now respectable, virtuous wives. Julia tells Jane that "men have the monopoly of wild oats and it is our duty to let them." However jnfo. the longing for the romance of fg^^^^^^^^^^f^^J^TT^^^T^T^^y new love is to irresistible and they prepare for their encounter to May 3 - Langley Student Art '92 Exhibition.

People.ink looks at Biener SURREY - April's edition of PeopleLink, a monthly production aired on Rogers Cablesystems, focuses on an individual to whom we can greatly attribute expanding the appreciation of the arts and culture throughout Surrey, Doreen Biener. In 1966, Centennial year, an important year for Canada as a whole as well as the citizens of Surrey, the Municipality's reputation as a less than sophisticated rural community had become the topic of many unjustified jokes. The comment that there was more culture in yogurt than there was in Surrey, summed up the situation perfectly. As popular musician of that decade, Bob Dylan, would have said, the times they were a changing. This upcoming PeopleLink program will be broadcast throughout the Rogers Community Television Network on Thursday, April 16 at 8 p.rrt and in Surrey, Langley, and New Westminster on Wednesday, April 15 at 8:30 pjn. and Sunday, April 19 at 830 p.m. 13 Legion switches hours UNPAID - REPOSSESSED f PERSIAN & ORIENTAL CARPETS Due to breach of contract and un-met liabilities of a major wholesaler of Persian and Oriental carpets, all carpets are to be liquidated in the quickest possible manner.

He was convicted of assault with intent to murder, and using a handgun in the commission of a felony. Nelson was arrested last June after he and another man were involved in a shoot-out with state troopers Kim Bowman and Kim Brooks. Bowman suffered injuries to her hand when she was hit by a bullet from Nelson's gun. He will likely return to Canada to serve his sentence. Doctors outraged VANCOUVER - Physicians are outraged with the health ministry's decision to leave them out of the committee which will look at the recommendations of the Royal Commission on Health Care and Costs. The B.C. Medical Association's president, Dr. Gur Singh angrily accused the minister, Elizabeth Cull of being, "two-faced in her dealings with us." The BCMA were left out of a 24- member committee, which includes representatives from the Registered Nurses' Association, Hospital Employees Union and the B.C. Nurses' Union. Dr. Singh said,' "We were told the BCMA could not be represented because then (Cull) would have to let other health organizations on the committee. "We do not mind officials from two nurses' organizations and the hospital workers on the committee. These groups should be there. But surely the doctors of this province should have at least one representative from their association. "This obvious snub, coming on the heels of Cull's recent public questioning of the billing honesty of doctors, makes it very clear that this government has no desire to be co-operative with us in addressing medicare problems... the NDP is going out of its way to pick a fight with us," said Dr. Singh. Alderman Trudi Campen officially opened the Spring Tea and Bake Sale held on Sat. April 4 at Jackman Manor. The event was a great success - young and old attended this event. - photo by Marie Jensen No one caught sleeping on Saturday; tea was great, too By MARGARET FOWLES-KOVACS ALDERGROVE - Don't let anyone tell you that the town of Aldergrove is asleep. Saturday, April 4, proved to be a day of happenings in town; the Heritage Building was moved from Fraser Hwy. to 32nd Ave., Elks Hall was holding a giant Flea Market, Jackman Manor Auxiliary held the annual Spring Tea and Bake Sale at the Manor. The mini-raffle winners were Margaret Fowles, vase; Mary Kerpan, Barbie doll and bed; Eileen Sundeen, potted plant. It was very nice to see all the people out supporting these events. Mr. & Mrs. Harry Lawn, former administrators of the Manor and Lions Grove Estates were on hand keeping abreast of the progress. The bus fund is off to a start on a slow roll several donations have been made to date, but as time progresses I am sure it will pick up momentum and the goal will be reached. The next event planned by the Auxiliary is the Strawberry Tea to be held at the Manor. With the fantastic winter we have had I am sure we will not have problems getting local strawberries. We will advise closer to the time of the exact date. Jackman Manor's own Ken Pruden even got in on the bake sale. He purchased most of the banana bread, right Ken? - photo by Marie Jensen A Tradition of Service to the Langley Community Since 1953 PERSONAL INJURY I.C.B.C. and Accident Claims HUGH McCALLUM -18 Years Experience PATRICK STAPLIN - 20 Years Experience JOHN HIRA -19 Years Experience Trial Lawyers Experienced in settlements and trials to achieve fair compensation for injuries.

APRIL 9. 1992 Be aware of changes to victim services volunteers recognized your 1991 tax return By Ritchie McCloy, F.C.A. According to Revenue Canada, most errors made on tax returns are arithmetical. To avoid the anxiety of opening your mail box to find a letter from Revenue Canada, it is recommended you check all your figures at least twice, using a calculator, before submitting your return. If you discover you've forgotten a deduction in a past return, just write to the tax department asking for an adjustment. They can only go back for a three-year period so don't leave it too late. If you're uncertain about any portion of your tax return, contact a professional. Chartered accountants can provide you with all the information you need about any aspect of your tax return. Iwjfe The following are changes to look for on your 1991 tax return: • Costs for modifying your home for a physically impaired family member, purchasing specialized products they need and the salary for a part-time attendant now qualify for the medical expense tax credit; • Students enrolled in a full- time correspondence course may be eligible for the educational tax credit; and • Your tax guide now contains a form to permit direct deposit of your tax refund, GST tax credit and child tax credit to your personal account. Here are additional tax facts to help you in filing your return: • If you immigrated to Canada during 1991, you do not have to claim income earned outside the country before you became a resident. You do, however, have to claim income earned outside the country while residing in Canada. The taxes paid to another country on those earnings, however, can be claimed against your Canadian taxes payable. A pamphlet outlining the income tax rule for immigrants is available through the offices of Revenue Canada. • Child care expenses are deductible if they are incurred by a working parent. The costs of babysitting, daycare and lodging at a boarding school or camp may be deductible for dependent children. The deduction in most cases must be claimed by the parent or supporting person with the lower income.

Voth, chairman of the Board, commented on the milestone year FHS had in 1991: "1991 was a milestone year for First Heritage Savings; we reached $504,000,000 in assets. We continued to show strong balance sheet performance in deposits and loans, the support of our members, customers, and dedicated team of staff, management, and directors resulted in an excellent year. As a result, the board of directors elected to return $2.8 million in profits back to members who take advantage of FHS's full range of financial services. Since lower interest rates in 1991 provided a greater advantage to borrowers and less of an advantage to depositors, the Board elected to return a share of the profits to FHS's many depositors. Last year the board returned a greater share of profits to bonowers. Other chamber business includes spodight speaker Dwayne Bates, on the school district's Career Fair for Special Needs Students.

Fewer jobs the future of forestry VANCOUVER - British Columbia's forest industry, which suffered record financial losses last year, is still facing months of stormy weather, with only a litde sunshine in the forecast. A Price Waterhouse financial executive told a conference in Vancouver that although markets are improving slightly for lumber, pulp and newsprint, there are more shocks ahead. Mike MacCallum said that to regain its health the industry over the next five years must make substantial changes in its structure. "There will be forest closures due to environmental pressures, and there will be pulp, paper and sawmill closures because there is over-capacity, as well as old, uncompetitive mills," he said. MacCallum said these changes will lead to a substantial reduction in the number of men and women direcdy employed in the forest industry. He said it is important to recognize this now so that re-employment and training programs can be set up and those who lose their jobs can move to new ones as easily as possible. we work at it, we can find a way *B B to bring stability to our working forests and protect our priceless environmental heritage. It will take goodwill at the table. It will take openness, respect, creativity and patience. And a process that is fair and balanced. That's why the government of British Columbia has set up the Commission on Resources and Environment — CORE. Over the next few months CORE will be asking British Columbians to participate in an open public process with specific deadlines for making recommendations about where to log and what to protect. CORE is your chance to help shape British Columbia's future. Shouldn't you be involved?

Aldergrove Student en route to New York - April first this year was no joke for Aldergrove Secondary's Eunice Joseph. On the strength of her speech on the effectiveness of the U.N. peace keeping, Eunice was selected by the Odd Fellows as one of two Langley district students to attend the United Nations in July. This wonderful opportunity will include a three-week crosscountry trip, a "behind-the- scenes" look at the U.N., meeting the ambassadors and of course, a sample of the rich cultural opportunities of "The Big Apple." LANGLEY - Steve Sendecki has been teaching photography for over 25 years now and has watched a lot of photographic industry trends come and go. With so many people buying camcorders and other video equipment, Sendecki has discovered a whole new generation of students. His video workshops introduce such techniques as adding and mixing sound, basic edits, tides, and special effects. "Some of the common mistakes with new camcorder users is that they use the zoom too much and makes scenes too short," says Sendecki. 'You can get seasick after you watch one of their videos." Steve Sendecki is a professional photographer, and owner of Photographic Consulting and Engineering Services, which specializes in studio photography and video production. Sendecki teaches all levels of photography, graphic design, and video through night school programs in Langley, Surrey, Delta, and Burnaby. Still cameras remain popular and the market supplies every thing from manual cameras to completely automatic electronic cameras. "Full automation has taken over," says Sendecki. "New electronic cameras do everything for you. It's supposed to be simpler, but some people have problems reading the instruction booklets that come with the new automatic cameras, and there's still a lot you can learn to help you get pictures you'll be proud of." No matter what type of camera a person has, knowledge about composition and different films can help photographers at any 'level get sharp, clear photographs. They can also learn how to override some automatic features to enhance thek creativity. Sendecki's local courses are run through the Langley School District's Continuing Education department. Courses this spring include Photography-Level I,' Camcorder and Video Workshop, and Creative Photography. For more information about any of these courses, call Langley Continuing Education at 533- 4227. Family fun promised, April 30 ALDERGROVE - County Line School invites the public to their.

Maintaining the benefits of short term electricity trade Beginning April 6, B.C.Hydro and POWEREX will be appearing before the B.C. Utilities Commission to renew our authorizations to trade surplus electricity with Alberta and the United States. B.CHydro plans and operates its electric system to serve the needs of this province. But variations in supply and domestic demand can make electricity available that is surplus to our needs. Short term electricity trade has been an efficient and profitable way to manage this surplus electricity for more than 75 years. The benefits to British Columbians are significant. They include over one billion dollars in revenues during the last seven years; coordination agreements with other utilities that increase the efficiency of our system operation as well as the reliability and security of our own domestic power supply; and potential environmental benefits for both us and our neighbours. The current Energy Removal Certificates required for short term electricity trade expire on September 30, 1992. B.C.Hydro and POWEREX are requesting that they be renewed until September 30, 1997. Renewal is required in order that the benefits of electricity trade will continue to be enjoyed by all British Columbians. The public hearing on the application begins at 9:00 a.m. on April 6,1992, in the B.C.U.C. Hearing Room, Sixth Floor, 900 Howe Street, Vancouver. The hearing may continue throughout the month, and will include sessions in Coquitlam (April 13) and Chilliwack (April 14). BG hydro ft POWEREX Steve Sendecki, seen through a 16 mm fish-eye lens.

Those who see a happy, peaceful dream shall become happy and peaceful; those who see a miserable one must become unhappy. "A dream is an image that we translate according to our physical capacity from the vibrations that come to us from out entire surrounding environment - society, nature, and the universe. In order to see a happy, peaceful dream, we must establish our own health. In order to establish our health, physically and mentally, we have to make the quality of our blood good; to do this, we must know how to cook our food. Cooking then is the gateway to life." Recendy it has been noticed by scientists that a flesh-free diet is not only adequate for humans but may actually be superior. We are learning that conventional diets, with their abundance of animal flesh, are major contributors to the high death rate from heart disease and stroke and atherosclerotic disease. With the addition of pesticides on our vegetables and an increase in the use of hormones and antibiotics in our meats it is not surprising that cancer is on the rise. j I became a vegetarian twenty- five years ago as a radical statement on the cruelty to meat animals. If one could see the conditions . of some of the chickens that are kept in their cages, fewer people would eat of those featherless fowL/SjpTie production of veal is so vile that I can't even sit at the same table as someone who eats it. Those tiny calves imprisoned in the dark so they can't move, and alone from birth. If you are what you eat then it's no wonder that society has gone berserk. Dr. G.S. Huntington of Columbia University, published a book that is a classic for the study of the digestive tracts of animals and man. As he studied the human digestive structure he found no evidence of the carnivore.He did find ample evidence, that at one time "the forms composing the order of their immediate ancestors, were largely or entirely herbivorous." Dr. Huntington refers to man's teeth as evidence of man's fitness "to eat plant foods. Other research scientists have agreed with Huntington's prognosis/The dental structure of herbivorous animals consist of sharp cutting incisors, while the molars have a flat or nodular surface used for crushing and grinding food. This presupposes that such animals - are phylogenetically constructed to live on vegetables, leaves, roots, etc. On the other hand, the '«$• VEGETARIAN COOKING SCHOOL "Good Nutrition" "Hands On Demonstration" COURSE INCLUDES SIX SAMPLE VEGETARIAN MEALS * Plus "Healthful Living Nuggets"* Classes start Tuesday, April 21st at 7:00 P.M.

The canines are elongated, strong, and sharp-pointed. They are used for tearing flesh. The molars have a lateral edge which is sharp and, in approximating the jaws, are used for slicing flesh. "Human teeth, obviously, are not suited for grasping, tearing, and slicing raw flesh. Examinations of the dental structure of modern man reveals that he possesses all of the features of a strictly herbivorous animal. In other words, man has the sharp front teeth with which to bite off pieces of food. He has the flat, nodular molars with which to grind it fine for swallowing, since he cannot swallow it in chunks," Dr Collens concludes. Throughout history, and included in the Bible is the testimony of the strength and vitality and endurance exhibited by vegetarian athletes. In surveys of the health of the population, the Seventh Day Adventists, who are vegetarians, are compared and they are recorded as having low incidence of heart problems, low cholesterol levels, and normal blood pressure. In an age where many children die of starvation and adults are grossly malnourished it is time to consider the planting of high protien foods. As long as one has enough of a reasonable variety of plant foods one can remain healthy. According to Diet for a New America: "If Americans reduced their meat intake by 10%, the savings in grains and soybeans could adequately feed 60 million people - the number of people who starve to death, woridwide, each year. "To produce lib. of beef, we need \6 lbs. of grain and soybeans, 2,500 gallons of water. Livestock production consumes more than half of all of the water used in the U.S. f<(S§5i "220 million acres of land in the U.S. have been deforested for livestock production. 100,000 square kilometers (an area the size of Austria) in Brazil, and half the forests in Central America, have been cleared for beef production. "20 vegetarians can be fed on the land needed to feed one person who eats meat. More than 200 million acres could revert to forest if we stopped raising food to feed livestock and concentrated on raising food to feed people. For every person who switches to a pure vegetarian diet, one acre of trees are spared per year." Once one decides to switch to a vegetarian diet, an excellent book to read is Diet For a Small Planet by Frances Moore Lappe. The Seventh Day Adventist church in Aldergrove is offering a vegetarian cooking school. See their advertisement in this paper. One can sample some mouth watering recipes that can replace the traditional meals presently served without causing to much of a shock to the family. LANGLEY - A delegation from the B.C. Home Builders Association told municipal council that a proposition to mandate fire sprinklers in new homes was wasteful and poindess. President Ken Farrish said research showed that it would $6,000 to $8,000 to the cost of a new home, without any tangible benefits to the purchaser. He suggested there were other more valuable ways to protect society for that money. Richard Stewart, publisher of Home Builder magazine and a member of national building code committees agreed. He said studies across the continent showed poor statistics for such equipment in low-rise single- family residential buildings. "Today's home is four to five times safer than one built ten years ago," and that smoke and fire alarms were much more effective than sprinklers. The - required monthly maintenance would also be cosdy for these homeowners. Councilors said they had been impressed with a video shown by a sprinkler manufacturer, but said they appreciated the information.

The red and white Canadian Cancer Society flag was raised at both the city and municipal halls on Monday and will fly for the month of April. Patti Forth, Aldergrove Area Campaign Captain has organized a group of volunteer canvassers who will be out knocking on doors to collect donations towards the fight against cancer. The Langley unit hopes the people of Aldergrove will "give generously" to support cancer research, programs of public education and services to patients. Campaign Donations support service to cancer patients of Aldergrove and Langley The mission of the Canadian Cancer Society is "the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life for people living with cancer." It achieves this aim through programs of research, education, patient services, and fund raising. Campaign donations provide public education for cancer patients of Langley The goal of education is to help Canadians change their behaviour so cancer can be prevented or detected early enough to cure. Volunteers are involved in delivering this message through theme programs on Sun/Skin, Breast Health, Tobacco, and Diet. Information, through pamphlets, videos and speakers is available through the society office at 533- 1668. Also watch for the volunteers who donate time and service in communicating the message that "cancer can be beaten." Fund raising maintains patient services The Cancer Society requires funds to maintain and provide services for the people of Langley. This year the Langley Unit has set the annual objective of $110,000. Donna Phillips, treasurer of April Campaign and Laurie Feindell, Kathy Hale, Daffodil Day chairpersons hope to raise $35,000 through the sale of daffodils, door-to-door donations, and the mail drop. The "In Memoriam" chairperson Betty Cox believes another $25,000 to $30,000 will be donated through memorials and bequests. A further source is corporations and other organizations who contribute to our programs on a regular basis. Special events, which include Jail-N-Bail, Fashion Show, Casino Night, Break Open, and sales items are another source of funds. A volunteer driver program is available for cancer patients living in Langley. Transportation to and from a specialist or the Vancouver clinic is provided by twenty drivers co-ordinated by chairperson Carmen Driver. Last year 1702 hours of service were donated in travelling 57,806 kilometres for 500 trips driving 1029 passengers to and from cancer treatment. The reimbursement of $12,159 for mileage was offset by a generous donation of $10,000 by the Langley Eagles. A Living With Cancer Group meets every 1st and 3rd Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. of each month at the district office. The co-ordinators for the meetings are volunteers Eleanor Woodley and Ruth Heiberg. At this time cancer patients share their problems and their solutions enabling them to to find ways to cope while "Living With Cancer." A Reach to Recovery program is chaired by Elsie Friestadt and Sheila Stoppa. This service is available for women who have undergone treatment for breast cancer, to make the necessary adjustments in body, mind, and spirit, through emotional support and practical advice. The Fresh Start Program designed to help participants to become happy ex-smokers was held at the Langley Lodge conference room for 4 weeks. The eight sessions were given by Jim Pazdzierski and Bari Sych, who volunteered to act as facilitators for the group. Dedicated Volunteers — the key to success The Langley Unit is fortunate to have a core of dedicated volunteers and district staff to provide the many services for the people of Langley. Through their efforts and the active participation of the public "Cancer can be beaten" can become the hope for the future. If you have the time and ability and wish to help , drop in or phone 533-1668, the Cancer Society's office - a volunteer will welcome you!

APRIL 9. 1992 1 23 Youth take a "different" vacation "Lot's wife" unstable By CAMERON ROGERS ALDERGROVE - Fifteen Aldergrove youth who attend Fraser Valley Adventist Academy in Aldergrove took a unique Spring Break this year. The local group was a small part of the more than 1,200 volunteers who travelled to the Dominican Republic between January 21 and March 31, 1992, to construct twenty-five churches in the capitol city of Santo Domingo in just 50 working days. Not only did the high school students give their vacation time but they paid over $1,000 each for the pleasure of getting up at 6 a.m. lifting cement blocks and pouring cement. The community is invited to share the excitement of this enthusiastic group as they give a full report on Saturday, April 11 at 10:45 a.m. The teenagers will relate their personal experiences and show slides of the trip at the Seventh-day Adventist Church on 28th Ave., just west of 264th Street. Del Knowlton, one of the adult sponsors, describes how "Our group arrived just in time to be involved in the construction of the very last of the 25 churches. It was an exciting day when the last cement block of the project Churches rally together LANGLEY - The Trinity Western University Chamber ensemble, directed by Wesley Janzen and John Harris, will present musical selections at the Fraser Valley Inter-church rally, to be held at 10:30 a.m, Friday, April 17, in the Christian Life Assembly auditorium. In addition, gospel soloist Lisa Reid will sing He Is Risen, assisted by musician Bruce Hope. Guest speaker will be author Justyn Rees, noted conference director and pilot. Formerly director of Hilden- borough Hall, a gospel training centre, in south-east England, he has conducted non- denominational campaigns in London's Westminster Central Hall and the Royal Albert Hall. The former director of Hil- denborough Hall resides now in Mt. Lehman, B.C. with his wife Joy and three children and attends East Aldergrove Mennonite Brethren Church. The Justyn Rees Upstream organization is enthusiastically endorsed by the Council of Justyn Rees Reference. Admission to the rally is free, and the public will be heartily welcomed. Many local congregations are participating in the celebration co-ordinated by program chairman Mun Hope. Christian Life Assembly is located at 21277 - 56th Avenue. Rally is sponsored by the Langley and District Ministerial Association. Winery to expand LANGLEY - Domaine de Chaberton Estates Ltd. will be allowed to expand their established farm gate winery to an estate winery. The winery at 1064-216 Street will be allowed to sell products at the farm, under Liquor Control Board guidelines, although aid. Muriel Arnason suggested it was permitting "industrial use in an agricultural zone." She noted that the township has closed down produce kiosks which brought in produce from other farms, and this was not fair. Aid. John Scholtens said it was "just another novel way to make a living in the ALR... I wish them all the best, let's help them in any way." Administrator Jim Godfrey noted that operation was controlled by the LCB purview, and needed no special policing by the township. A CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY LANGLEY FIRE DEPARTMENT The dates tor open burning of indigenous materials for the purposes of yard and garden cleanup are April 11 - 12 and April 17, 18 & 19, 1992. Burning is subject to the following conditions: 1) Only vegetation may be burned. Construction, demolition, plastics, garbage, etc. cannot be burned. 2) Fires must be kept small and hand fed. 3) A responsible adult must be in attendance. A hose and water must be available. 4) Fires must be extinguished by dusk. A PERMIT IS NOT REQUIRED. Please have consideration for your neighbours. GORDON YERKIE, Emergency 9-1-1 FIRECHIEF. Administration 888-7755 was set in place on Tuesday, March 17 with all the construction crew watching along with a large number of church members and neighbours." The Aldergrove group was also involved in other aspects of the project such as food preparation, laundry, pew construction, and painting of three of the churches. "We were reminded that we were not just building pews, painting or pouring concrete; we were building cathedrals to God's glory," says Knowlton. Few of the Aldergrove group understands Spanish but the friendliness >of the people they met in "Ssfiuo Domingo helped make- up for the lack of understanding of their language. The frequent use of the words "no problem" made it easy for those from different cultures to work side by side. For many of the Aldergrove youth, leaving behind new friends was the hardest part of the trip. The best part is the memories that they will cherish. 1 2431 CLEARBROOK RD OR...

A 30-foot salt rock, overlooking the Dead Sea on the slope of Mount Sodom, is named after the biblical figure who was escaping God's wrath against the sins of the cities when she was struck down as she turned back to look at the devastation. The outcrop, weighing several tons, has become unstable recently. It is leaning outward 20 degrees, and geologists fear it may collapse on to the road about 150 feet below. In the Book of Genesis, Lot, Abraham's nephew, was warned by two angels of the impending destruction of Sodom, and told to flee with his wife and two daughters. "Escape for thy life; look not behind thee; neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain lest thee be consumed," they told Lot.

APRIL 9. 1992 Student exchange builds bonds with Quebec counterparts wmm ABBOTSFORD - Canada may be subject to antagonism and argument among the regions at the national level, but bring people together at the face-to- face level and they seem to be able to find some common ground. Fifteen college students from Cegep de Riviere-du-Loup in Quebec recently got the chance to bond with their Fraser Valley counterparts when they travelled to B.C. for a 15 day exchange with University College of the Fraser Valley French students. The UCFV students will travel to Quebec in April. Quebecois and B.C. students found they had plenty of likes in common — including parties, sunshine, mountains, and cherry blossoms in March. The Quebecois had left snow and 2 degree weather at home, and had no complaints about B.C.'s early spring. For many, it was their first visit to B.C., and they said they came for a chance to see another part of the country in an economical way. "It's a good chance to practice my English, and meet other people," said one exchangee. "The country is too big and it's expensive to come to the coast." UCFV student Anna-Marie Bruinsma cited similar reasons for wanting to go to Quebec. "I wanted to try my French out, and to go to Quebec to see how things are there," she says. "We're so far apart, that we could end up not communicating with each other." Some of the Quebecois students shied away from talking about politics, but Frederic d'Amours had some advice for politicians: "They should stop talking and do something. There's a lot of commissions, but little action. Most Quebecois think they want to separate, but they don't really know what they want. I want to know people from other parts of the country so we can stay one country." Exchange coordinator Paul Ruest, a philosophy instructor from Riviere-du-Loup, was also on his first visit to B.C., and he found the trip enlightening. "When I first arrived, I just wanted to see what B.C. looked like. But now I'm reali2ing that it is also part of my country. If everyone in Canada had a chance to see many parts of it, we would reel stronger as a nation. It's easier to say you want to quit with a region you don't know." One UCFV student said she take French because she likes it, and hopes to teach it one day. "I think French is good for everyone to take because we are a bilingual country, and we should stay one country. It wouldn't be the same if a big chunk was taken out. We have to start thinking of ourselves as Canadians instead of dividing up into regions." UCFV language instructor Alan Cameron organized the exchange, along with his Quebecois counterpart. He says that the objectives of this exchange are to give students the chance to use their second language to discuss constitutional issues with their Quebecois counterparts, to provide the opportunity for friendships to grow, and to give insight into the cultural, social and political realities of contemporary Quebec.
