^■■^W^^M^ FEDS CONSIDER APPEAL THAT'S A LOT OE±QVE! Marsha Ross, chief commissioner of Girl Guides of Canada, got a spontaneous hug from Aldergrove Pathfinder, Stephanie Hasiuk, Monday evening at the Guiding Hoedown at Abbotsford's Agriplex. More than a thousand girls, including the Aldergrove and Bradner packs, were there to party hearty for the movement's 85th anniversary. Ross visited with every one of the Guides, and she was presented with a colourful shawl made up of the colours of each of the 13 districts, from Aldergrove to Boston Bar, in the Cheam area. -Kurt Langmann photo DIALYSIS WARNING Chlorine injection begins soon in water system ALDERGROVE - The township's chlorine disinfection trials of this town's water system begin during the week of October 16, and officials are concerned that persons here using kidney dialysis machines are aware and prepared. "Most kidney dialysis machines have carbon filters to remove chlorine,"'said township engineer Fred Peters. "People using dialysis machines should check with their dialysis physician or the Langley Health Unit at 532-2300 to ensure that they are protected." Aquarium owners should also use dechlorinating tablets before using the water, as chlorine is toxic to fish. However, drinking water treated with chlorine is safe to drink or for any other use. Water quality will be intensively monitored during the program by consultants, and it should be noted that Aldergrove's public water has never failed monthly tests under national safe drinking water standards. As reported in last week's Star, the experiments being undertaken by the township are aimed at countering the unpleasant taste and odour of manganese in the water at three main municipal wells here. Filtration will also be tried in the two-month-long program, but because it will be on a small scale the filtered water will be evaluated separately, and not be released back into the public system. The program also included scrubbing of the water mains in a kilometre-long stretch along 29 Avenue, and the scrubbing of the west reservoir. This reservoir, the older of two here, is also being removed from service temporarily to determine if it improves water quality, as well as the impact on pressures required for public use and firefighting. When the pilot program finishes in December, the township engineers' report will be considered by council before setting next year's budget for water improvements in Aldergrove. Convict to stay in Canada VANCOUVER - A convicted contract killer, who is currently awaiting trial at Matsqui Institution for parole violations and trafficking in cocaine, has won his appeal against a deportation order. Last week, the immigration appeal board panel decided that Satpal Singh Jhatoo, 27, will be "given a second chance to prove himself." Immigration appeals officer Dennis Tannack said he would seek to appeal the board's decision to the Federal Court of Canada, and this week immigration minister Sergio Marchi has asked officials for an opinion on this request for a judicial review. 'Suite' answer eludes mayors LANGLEY - A letter from the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board "requesting a solution to the secondary suites issue" garnered a caustic comment from mayor John Scholtens. "We'd all be very pleased if someone could please give us a solution to the (illegal)^ secondary suites problem." That got guffaws from fellow councillors, who regularly come under fire from both sides of the issue here — residents who need the suites to help pay tiieir mortgages, and residents who don't want higlicr densities in their neighbourhoods. Abbotsford mayor George Fer- ^^waeiv told The Star that public meetings his council is currently hosting on the issue are going to be "very interesting," but in reality his council is no closer to agreement on how to deal with the matter. However, Abbotsford council is considering a number of options in the exercise, while Langley's policy is to prosecute bylaw infractions upon complaint from neighbours. Critics of the latter policy say this is not only unfair, but could lead to nasty vendettas in the community. Jhatoo was convicted in 1987 of second degree murder, in the bludgeoning and burning death of Ranjit Kaur Toore, 45, in her Matsqui home. Her husband, Jagraj Singh Toore, received a 15 year sentence for conspiracy to commit murder, after he pleaded guilty to charges of offering Jhatoo money and other favours for the killing. The estranged couple had had a disagreement over the husband's plans for a marriage of one of Toore's six children. Justice Samuel Toy had sentenced Jhatoo to life, with no parole eligibility before ten years, but seven years later Jhatoo was released on parole. Parole officers have accused Jhatoo of repeatedly lying to thein since release on Jan. 5, 1994, and he committed numerous parole violations such as using dnigs, drinking in bars, driving without a licence and causing motor vehicle accidents. On Feb. 8 of this year, while living in a Prince George halfway house, Jhatoo was arrested in Fort St. James on charges of trafficking in cocaine, and this case goes to trial in January. The immigration appeal board panel of Ed Lam, Lorennc Clark and Des Verma travelled to the Matsqui prison to hear Jhatoo's case, and heard that he was Please see page 16...

Heather McMullan has "put council on notice" that she is giving definite thought on how to include domestic cats in the township's animal control bylaw. She said a recent visit to Aldergrove's "Auntie Meow" — cat welfare advocate Madalynn Gilmore, recently featured in a Star story — impressed her with the good work being done on behalf of the little furballs. "Madalynn Gilmore has done the work for cats here while we (the township) have given the problem over to the SPCA in Surrey and Abbotsford." Gilmore has found homes for thousands of cats over the past 20 years, earning the respect of the SPCA and all animal rights advocates in the lower mainland. Her strata council has told her that she is no longer able to have more dian one cat in her home at a time, but she continues to lobby the public and government for more humane treatment of cats, as well as provide referrals for cats needing homes. McMullan said that she was following the lead of Burnaby and New Westminster councils, who are pursuing mandatory spay/neuter bylaws for domestic cats that are allowed to roam, in an effort to control the costs and Please see page 16...

Wakelin says that he has a policy of zero tolerance on drugs and violence and hopes that his presence at the school will make a difference. -Monlque Galazka photo Law walking the school By MONIQUE GALAZKA ALDERGROVE - Community police officer Al Wakelin has taken over as the new liaison officer at Aldergrove Community Secondary School and, although the school year has gotten off to a rough start, he says it's beginning to mellow out "During the beginning of the year I attended several assemblies to make my presence and policy of zero tolerance on drugs and violence known," he said. "What I hope to do mostly is be a resource for the kids and help solve problems." Not all problems are easily dealt with however. Major cases, such as the recent sexual assault and criminal harassment incident, have been passed on to general duty officers. Wakelin spends 12 of his 40 hour work week at the school, with six hours scheduled and six not. "I try to vary my unscheduled hours, so the bad kids don't always know when I'll be around," he said. "To the good kids it doesn't really matter when F m there, but if my presence prevents just one incident, then I have made a difference." During the time he is in the school, Wakelin walks the halls and grounds checking on things. He knows where the potential trouble spots are and gives them special attention. He also spends time in his office making phone calls and being available for students to talk to him if they want to. "It only took me a couple of weeks to find that a liaison officer is a necessity in this school," Wakelin said, "But I would really prefer for my main function to be a resource and a mediator." Theft investigated ABBOTSFORD - Police are investigating the armed robbery of the CIBC on McCallum Road just before 1 p.m, Tuesday September 26. A lone man walked into the bank and demanded money. No weapon was produced and he left on foot. The suspect is described s a white male in his early twenties, 5'7"tall, 150 pounds with dark hair and a dark complexion. He was wearing dark sunglasses, a black T-shirt and black pants. Anyone with information about this robbery is asked to call die Abbotsford Police Department at 859-5225 or CrimeStoppers at 855-TIPS (8477).

"The polar bear will appear on the flip side of Canada's new $2 coin," said federal public works minister David Dingwall at the unveiling, held at the Toronto Zoo. A profile etching of Queen Elizabeth, no stranger to currency throughout the Commonwealth, will appear on the 'head side' of the coin. The polar bear was chosen after polling by Environics Research Group in March showed 65 percent of respondents favored a wildlife design theme for the coin, with bears among the favorite candidates. Two-dollar coins will enter circulation in February. "With a 20-year lifespan for the coin, versus one year for the $2 note, taxpayers will save more than $250-million over 10 years," Dingwall said. Eight political parties agree on policy change LANGLEY - The recent Vancouver meeting of the Campaign for Electoral Reform was successful in bringing together more than twenty people with different political affiliations for a single purpose. Electoral reform was seen by all as a crucial need for the survival of our democracy. Korky Day, one of the organizers, said that members of at least eight political parties attended. The next Vancouver meeting will be held at 7 pm on October 25 at Bayview Community School, 2251 Collingwood Street CFER's mission statement is to be the Canadian counterpart of the Electoral Reform Coalition, a New Zealand groundswell movement that brought about meaningful change against all odds and opposition from the parties in power. Canadians need to replace our archaic "winner take all" electoral system with a fairer system, in which every vote counts. More meetings in the Lower Mainland will follow soon, and formal structuring of the organization is expected this fall. To promote CFER, Gordon Neuls and Jacob dc Raadt appeared on CKNW's Western Canada-wide Stirling Fox Show last week. As reported by Elections Canada, the redistribution of seats in the House of Commons will only be completed in December 1996. Sad to say, CFER's suggestions for change were ignored in the report of last year's Electoral Boundaries Commission for British Columbia. CFER has recendy been made available on the Internet, and die address is www.cybemet.ca/cfer. The interim mailing address is 20845-94B Avenue, Langley, B.C. VIM 2B1, and phone or fax number is 882-5024. The Campaign for Electoral Reform promotes the mixed member proportional electoral system as a viable and fair electoral system for Canada's Parliament and our provincial legislatures. CFER was formed in February of 1994, and solicits support from all Canadians, irrespective of political persuasion.

OCTOBER 4,1995 FOREST POLICY EXPECTED TO CARRY BIG PRICE TAG "Big lie" won't fly, says opposition VICTORIA - Responding to the Price Waterhouse analysis on the costs of NDP forest policies, released by the Forest Alliance, BC Reform leader Jack Weisgerber said that "It only confirms rural British Columbians' worst fears." The Price Waterhouse study commissioned by the Forest Alliance of B.C. shows that NDP forest and land use policies will cause the loss of 46,000 jobs and result in a drop of $5-billion in the economy every year. The Price Waterhouse report says that the NDP prediction for forest revenues were based on a high point in the economic cycle, and that revenue projections would not be sustainable in an economic slowdown. It predicts that Forest Renewal B.C. will not be able to sustain its $400-million funding level and therefore, will have little, if any, effect on expected job losses. Liberal forest critic Wilf Hurd said, "This independent report clearly shows the NDP are creat- ing-a made-in-B.C. economic slowdown and forest communities and families will pay the price. The NDP have declared war on woodworkers with their extreme policies that have undermined the economic foundation of this province and 46,000 families will pay the price." "Forest workers and rural communities never really believed Mike Harcourt's 'big lie' that no jobs would be lost as a result of his government's forest policies," Weisgerber said. "However, they were prepared to hear any evidence to the contrary, if Harcourt could make a credible case. "It's rather ironic that Harcourt' s big lie has finally been exposed by, of all people. Jack Munro. And I suspect that regardless of how the Premier squirms and tries to discount the Price Waterhouse report, most forest workers will put a whole lot more faith in Jack Munro's word than in Mike Harcourt's. The government's Protected Areas Strategy has largely been a non-strategy that fails as miserably as the Forest Practices Code to accurately acknowledge the job losses associated with it. "Instead of trying to micro- manage the forest industry and Law expected to hurt small businesses ALDERGROVE - Michael Weiler will speak on the implications for business of the new Employment Standards Act, Bill 29, which comes into force November 1. The requirements contained in the Act will signifi- candy affect employers and business operators in B.C. The Langley Chamber of Commerce is hosting the information luncheon featuring Michael Weiler, chair of the Labour and Employment Subcommittee of the BC Chamber of Commerce. Weiler is a partner in the firm of Schiller Coutts Weiler & Gibson, which restricts its practice to labour relations and employment law. "The Act will significantly alter the legal obligations of employers" said Weiler, "and the changes will particularly affect small business operators". Weiler observed that "although the Act contains a wholesale reorganization of the provisions of the current Employment Standards Act and a rewording in simpler language, it also includes a number of new substantive and procedural requirements which many feel will hurt small business and discourage investment in British Columbia". Area business operators are encouraged to register for this session, to be held on Thursday*- October 12, 11:30 am to 1:30 pm at ABC Aldergrove Banquet Room, 3070-264th Street. Cost is $15 per person (includes buffet luncheon). Reservations: 530- 6656. concentrating on policing its every move, the government should be working in concert with the industry to focus on outcomes and results. "Similarly, any reductions in the AAC that are necessitated from the Timber Supply Review should be offset as far as possible by adjustments to protected areas, not including parks. The goals of community stability and job protection must take precedence over the desire to 'red circle' huge swaths of timber aimed at placating environmental extremists. "Finally, every cent of revenue raised through Forest Renewal BC must be equitably invested in all regions, with a view to increasing the AAC over the long term. I fear that it is presently litde more than a massive political slush fund that is aimed at maximizing the government's political advantage, rather than at maximizing job opportunities," said Weisgerber. Hurd said die NDP are spending millions of tax dollars in preelection advertising to promote themselves, while tiieir land use policies are dismantling British Columbia's largest single industry. "The hardship caused to the families and the economy from NDP policies will be devastating. The NDP's pattern of deception has caught up with them. Harcourt needs to explain to British Columbians why they were deceived by the Premier when he stated that no jobs would be lost in die forest sector." Hurd said B.C. Liberals will establish working forest designations to encourage more intensive forestry and more jobs, while protecting and sustaining the environment. "Lost jobs and a made- in-B.C. economic slowdown is the real legacy created by Harcourt and the NDP," Hurd said.

So, from October 1 to 90, police forces throughout the province will be stepping up enforcement of seat belt laws. Police will have some help in their enforcement campaign this year. For the first time, 147 Motor Vehicle Branch commercial transport inspectors will join police in checking on seat belt use across the province. These inspectors, working at weigh scales and on mobile patrols, will focus on commercial vehicle drivers and will issue the same tickets as police officers to diose who aren' t buckled up.

In a survey of 2,437 companies across Canada, 95 percent of the firms said intcrprovincialtradc was vital to the economy of their individual provinces, the chamber of commerce said. In Quebec, 64 percent of companies believe "the future economic prosperity of Quebec will decline if Quebec leaves Canada," the business group said. Sixly^five percent of the Quebec firms, which trade with customers in odier provinces, expect a "worsening" in those relations if the province separates. And, the poll found, 53 percent of Quebec companies believe dieir profits will drop after separation. Of companies that trade with firms in other provinces, 61 percent expected a drop in profits if the province separates. Bloc Quebecois leader Lucien Bouchard dismissed the findings, saying gloomy business forecasts were part of the federalist referendum campaign tactics. The emperor's newest clothes LETTERS TO THE EDITOR There is a vignette in Ayn Rand's classic novel, 'The Foun- tainhead', in which a cynical group of critics decide to acclaim a play they actually believe to be worthless. Their objective is to demonstrate their own power to mould public taste and muddy the waters of truth. Presendy showing at the Vancouver Art Gallery is an exhibit which features a pair of pictures of the Pope immersed in the artist's urine. the explanation reads in part, "The pair of works can be read as an irreverent attack on the church... They can be considered, however, as more complex, poetic, (meditations) on the relationship between the individual and the church, between religion and spir- imality. "In a tactile sense, what is more private than bodily fluids? ... Is the head of Pope John Paul II drowning in piss or enriched by its submersion in the glow of a golden liquid?" The tradition of Rand's characters seems amply brought to life by the gallery, whose artistic You can lead ahorse ... Editor, The Star, Sir, I just want to inform Tony Eberts that I am not ignorant or bigoted, as I believe that if the natives would have had to pull up their socks and join us, they would not be sitting back and be envious of what we have accomplished. They cannot undo the past, nor can we. My ancestors were encouraged to come to diis country by false advertising, but they did not sit around and wait for hand outs. I will inform Tony Eberts that I was bora at and grew up next to one of the biggest reserves in Saskatchewan. They had 72 sections of the best land around. They were given every opportunity to make something for themselves (I wish I had been given the same). We were even hired to clear some land, while they sat in the shade; when winter came, we were paid to take and feed their stock so they would not starve. Oh yes, there were some that took the opportunity and made good;, their biggest enemy was those who refused and sat in the shade, the dissidents that are raising hell and want what others have accomplished. They were never forced on reserves, they were made available; there are many hundreds of natives not living on reserves. Their people were as guilty as whites for the bison. We bad no trouble with the fish count until the natives were given special privileges. Tony says we made their language, their customs and their religion illegal. That is the biggest B.S. I have ever heard, along with handing out blankets infected with smallpox. The natives did not and still do not have a language diat can be written. Yes, at the reserve there was a boarding school, but there was also a hospital. We lived 7 miles from the reserve hospital, but we could not use it; we had to go 60 miles (that was the time when you travelled by horse and buggy). I could write a book about the money and effort spent to try to make their life better, but, as the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink. No, Tony Eberts, it is ignorance like yours that keeps the natives where they are today. They have had every opportunity, but they blew it. Now they want what we have accomplished. TED HANSEN Aldergrove. Sky will fall! Editor, The Star, Sir, Once again the B.C. timber barons' chief lobby group, the B.C. Forest Alliance, is repeating its favorite fairy story: The sky will fall if the foreign-controlled fibre industry isn't allowed to strip-mine all the trees. For a while it seemed that such measures as Forest Renewal, the Forest Practices Code and Timber Supply Review might at last force the big corporations to stop over- cutting and shipping out jobs in the fonn of minimally processed timber. Fat chance! The timber pirates have only two simple demands - diey want it all, and they want it now. So their main mouth, former IWA leader Jack Munro, backed by highly questionable statistics gathered on demand, is howling that a zillion jobs will be lost if the industry isn't allowed to continue liquidating our forests at . current or even increased rates. It's odd that the man, who used to stand up for the workers, has now jumped the fence to lobby for the corporations dedicated to replacing those workers with Why could immigrants make it? Editor, The Star, Sir, I think Tony Eberts is short on history and long on noble intentions. He advocates, to rectify wrongs done long before my time, the Indian nations should be rewarded with land, money, and resources, being wealth beyond imagining. My grandchildren, their grandchildren and even longer into the future will have to pay for the misdeeds of long-dead generations. The Irish were dispossessed of their homes, along with the crofters of Scotiand, the natives of Mexico, South America and recently of Africa. When the wrongs of Africa were partially rectified, the Black governments started in with gusto to grab each other's land. Wasn't there a lot of grabbing in World War Two? As for pride and dignity, no one robbed me of mine. Even with no welfare, no unemployment insurance, no relief, and no relations to live with, during the depression years I, and a great many more had to get out into the bush and cut maple only into stove wood. lengths for $2 a cord, and be very careful the trucker didn't take off without paying. The wood had to be piled in an easy place to load, and your back was the only available means to pack the wood out of the bush. We got down to oatmeal mush twice a day on many occasions. Did you know mush tastes pretty good fried? Most always we had no sugar. The Indians on the Dol- larton reserve lived in opulence against our lifestyle. Paradise was Hastings Street in Vancouver, where you could obtain a meal; one egg, two rashers of bacon and four slices of toast plus, well, they called it coffee, for 15 cents. Saturday night there was "Con Jones". Do you remember it? It was a pool hall on Hastings with gambling upstairs, but you could get a large bun and real coffee for 5 cents. If you have ever Jived on mush for a week or more, the taste of "Jones" bun and coffee was, I am sure, like entering Heaven. Why could an immigrant make it, and a native Indian cannot? ERNIE CLUETT, Aldergrove machinery. Some 25,000 forest and mill jobs have been eliminated by industry mechanization programs. In B.C., fewer people are employed per tree felled, than anywhere else in the world. As anyone who isn't a highly paid corporate propagandist can see, it makes no sense to continue cutting a high volume of trees that will inevitably starve out the whole industry in a decade or so. Instead of whining for permission to consume what's left of the timber resource, the corporations should be building many more plants and factories to produce wood-based products and employ more people. It's as simple as that. But the big multi-nationals want to perpetuate the 19th Century system that would let them quickly finish the job of converting B.C.'s."pub- lip" forests to profits and then move on to devastate some other part of the worid. The disgruntled Tories and retread Socreds under the dollar- sign banners of the provincial Liberals and Reformers would allow this destructive greed to continue. We mustn't give diem the chance. TONY EBERTS, Aldergrove Letters invited The Aldergrove Star invites letters to the editor on topics of interest to the community. The let- ters-to-the-editor column is a chance for comment on what has been said in the paper. It is our readers' opportunity to respond to what newsmakers of die area have been saying. We especially encourage readers to write on topics of local interest, although letters which enlighten or stimulate thought are welcome. We ask diat letters be free of libel and bear the name and address of die author. Submissions must include a written signature. We prefer letters to be typed and double spaced, and present the comment as clearly and briefly as possible. The editor reserves the right to condense or reject letters containing libel or of poor taste. appraisal this is. 1 suppose it is true that these pictures can be considered "complex, poetic meditations" and all the other codswallop, but I would venture to suggest that this point of view has a minute constituency. The other 99.999 percent of British Columbians, even the non- Catholics, would take the other position, namely diat it was "an irreverent attack on religion", by someone with the tastes of a small, unpleasant, pre-pubescent boy. I wonder what would happen if an equally nasty exhibit were mounted by the VAG, attacking Jews, Mohammedans, gays or native Indians? The VAG, by the way, is 69 percent funded by the taxpayer. We need more good people here not killers and thugs By KURT LANGMANN It's been an eye-opening exercise for this "thought I'd seen it all" editor. It's also been somewhat expensive in time and money, and while I've been happy with the effort reporter Monique Galazka has put into the story, the published results are, to say the least, disconcerting. I'm talking about the Bounjan Aii Inthavong case, as heard by the federally-appointed refugee appeal board. This case has dragged on, weighted down by the machinations of bureaucracies here and abroad, and is likely to continue for some time yet Why did The Star choose to focus on this case? To begin with, the mother of the murder victim (iKirby Martin') at the heart of the matter, lives here in Aldergrove. Kirby was also well-known to many in Aldergrove, although he lived in Abbotsford at the time of his death. Kirby's mother prefers her privacy, but she went public over the issue of Inthavong's deportation appeal, because of her feelings that real justice is lacking, and she enlisted the help of her MP, Randy White. White is pursuing this case with particular zeal, as he considers it a test case of a system he also finds lacking in real justice. The editors of The Star had no preconceived notions either way, but chose to personally observe the case as it evolved before coming to any conclusions, and as the refugee appeal board is actively pursuing Inthavong's deportation, and the federal government is considering changes to legislation, perhaps the public scrutiny on this case is having a positive effect For a bit of background, Kirby was a teenager, who happened to be inside a South Fraser Way restaurant, when he spotted a gang of youths in the large park-' ing lot, trashing a car that belonged to one of Kirby's friends. In a fit of foolhardy bravado, Kirby went out by him- Please tura to page 27 m WdJM££W.r\ THI? ALDERGROVe STAR*.

' Every day seven people in Canada and 70 people in die U.S. die as a result of drunk driving, and 200 every year in B.C. In 16 years 1/2-million people die in Canada and U.S. from drunk driving. I was a coroner in and for the province of Alberta for over 32 years ,and I have witnessed firsthand, part of the massacres that occur in Canada every day from drunk driving. During that time Dr. Max Cantor was chief coroner of Alberta. I have a graph showing percentage of persons impaired and intoxicated at various levels of.percent alcohol, by experimental work of Dr. Max Cantor, coroner, Professor Gelfand, professor of psychology and Brother Phillip, psychologist, performed on 2,000 volunteers, at the University of Alberta. Dr. Cantor was professor of biochemistry at die time of the experiment. It indicates that, even at a level of .01 percent, eight out of 100 people will show impairment or intoxication. This is particularly so for young people who have not developed a tolerance for alcohol and is why so many young people Benefit to community Editor, The Star, Sir, After significant planning and negotiation Jackman Manor has been approved a renovation and addition to provide a 22-bed Alzheimer unit. This will be of great benefit to our community, enabling us to provide quality care for those individuals of our province suffering from this affliction. Due to our restricted site the addition will extend into our existing parking lot. This will necessitate removal of all the large trees on our site, most of which are suffering rot and causing a safety concern for our neighbours. New and more appro priate plantings will be put in place on completion. The construction will cause increased noise and traffic disruption in the area, as parking will become a problem during this phase. We will appreciate your understanding, patience and cooperation during this time and ask that children be prevented, whenever possible, from access to the construction site due to safety concerns. We appreciate our community's past support and look forward to providing increased services for our community widi diis addition. KEN PRUDEN Jackman Manor, Aldergrove Good bears Trip to city an event Editor, The Star, Sir, The United Way has many worthwhile charities that they take care of.

All monies raised go towards purchasing teddy bears to give to children in traumatic situations. Thank you for caring. ELEANOR WELLS, Langley FIRST AID TIPS!

EDUCATIONAL SERVICES Editor, The Stai\ Sir, Among the other very good reasons for the proposed cultural centre is that it has become a historical imperative. Fort Langley was the province's first capital and Langley Township the province's first incorporated municipality. In spite of these early beginnings the township was to see development pass down river. The capital would move from Fort Langley to New Westminster, and then to Victoria. New Westminster not only lost out as seat of government, it would also lose out to a burgeoning Vancouver as' the major seaport - a role city fathers pursued vigorously. In the twenties it was a three hour trip to Vancouver over rutted roads, and, according to local papers of die time, it was worthy of note in the social column to make this trip. New Westminster was really the locus of activity for this area, as local farmers marketed their goods there. Livestock was driven across a forested Surrey and rafted down the river. Langley was rural and rustic. Logging was a major industry into the early thirties, and even then the site of Spools Lumber on Fraser Highway was ope of the last stands of old growth forest in the township. Even diough it was a prosperous farm area, population remained small. In 1923 there were 5,000 people in the entire township. Over succeeding decades there would be incremental growth, but in the last fifteen years it has been unprecedented. As this historical cycle reverses itself and growth pushes back up .river;there-is every indication this rapid growth will continue. The growth that pioneers saw pass down river, temporarily pre-empted, is here now. To its credit the Township has established many excellent facilities - what remains is the need for a cultural centre. In spite of many good efforts in recent years, this has yet to be realized. As this growth is upon us, the community will only mature and remain a desirable place to live if cultural facilities are part of it. In his very excellent book, The Fraser Valley, A History, local author and lawyer, John Cherring- ton wrote: "Community spirit in the Fraser Valley reached its zenith during the twenties." This was ever so true of Langley area where the pioneer values: of caring and cooperation persisted. It was a close knit rural community where people socialized at baseball games, picnics, and over the cribbage board. All of that has, of course, changed. Now we are part of a much larger, more sophisticated culture, where the quality and spirit of community life is embodied in cultural and recreational facilities. When task force recommendations go to council it is not a decision they can take lightly. Their decision must reflect the rapidly changing nature of the community. It will be a measure of their vision and foresight. Yet another imperative is that Township and City, in a spirit of renewed cooperation, must work together in this Worthwhile venture. ROBERT BILLY ARD Cultural Task Force ? Langley are involved in drunken driving. This is also an indication of why the legal level of alcohol needs to be reduced from .08 percent to zero. It takes less than one drink to reach a level of .01 percent. Even at .05% there will be 40 people out of 100 at this level .who will be impaired or intoxicated. I urge you to study this graph and act according. If you tiiink some tiling should be done about diis awful situation, you can do something about it yourself, by writing to the Attorney-General Lljjal Dosanjh, M.L.A., Room 232, Legislative Buildings, Victoria, B.C., V8V 1X4, and to Premier Mike Harcourt, M.L.A., Premier of B.C., Room 156, Legislative Buildings, Victoria, B.C., V8V 1X4. Tell them to reduce the legal level of alcohol for driving to zero. Also write to Mr. Michael de Jong, representative of Fraser Valley West, Room 201, Legislative Buildings, Victoria, B.C. V8V 1X4. ALBERT DOBSON, M.D. Clearbrook children Editor, The Star, Sir, I wish to respond to a letter dated Sept. 13 by Ernie Jantzen, regarding the murder of Tammy Lee Pipe. Another prostitute's body was found in the same area, presumed murdered by the same person. The points Mr. Jantzen made of the girl's earlier life made me think of a sermon by Pastor Rathain of the Aldergrove Christian Assembly, regarding who will receive the crown of Glory. The true value of a person is not dictated by career, bank accounts or house address. Lifestyle paths are not always a personal choice, but sometimes a forced circumstance. Condolences belong to all the families whose children are looked down upon by society and whose lives are taken in any fashion. Their pain and grief is the same as any family who suffers the loss of loved ones.

After the break there was a complete reversal with Gold Key coming more into the game, shutting down the UBC attack. They were rewarded for their revitalization with a goal, that several Gold Key players had a hand in creating, with Tara Wintrup finding the net on a goalmouth scramble. Gold Key threatened on numerous occasions to tie the score, but with 15 minutes remaining in the game UBC scored on one of their rare forays into the Gold Key half of the field. Gold Key responded to that goal by creating several more chances but were in the end forced to accept a 3-1 UBC victor- Coach John Deacon said, "We were flat in the first half allowing UBC to dictate how the game was played. "On the day's play we were unlucky not to tie; the effort was there, they worked hard in the second half without much reward." Next game for Gold Key will be at Parkside on Oct. 15.

Mission came out strong, only to have Aldergrove's Jim Dool score the opener. Mission rallied and got the equalizer before half.

The Langley Lions continue to roar, as they had their fifth consecutive win on the weekend. The Lions are now in first place in the division, and they remain the only unbeaten team in flag. Jeff Van Unen had one touchdown and Spenser Deol went across for three Majors, one of which was off a perfectly executed "Statue of Liberty" play between Spenser and quarterback Ben Hartley. Other offensive plays were made by Mark Warren and Chad Van Unen. The defense held the Mini Cubs with stellar plays by Joel Glanfield, Lance Deol and Daniel Gilmour. Head coach Steve Moore stated - every member of the team put forth a first place effort Atom Thunder 14 - Delta 4. The Langley Thunder added another victory to their currant campaign. It was a day for the big play as most majors were scored on run runs of 40 yards or more against the Delta Canadian Rams. Outstanding play came from Ryan Mcintosh along with newcomer Jesse McNeil on the defensive line. Jack Williams also proved to be a valuable asset with key blocks on the offensive side to aid in sweeping runs for Uie Thunder. The Thunder will prepare to meet the North Surrey T-Birds next Jr. Bantam Desperados 0 - Renfrew 15. The Desperado's put forth a good defensive effort by holding Renfrew to only 3 points in the first half. The combination, however, of penalties and an aggressive opponent resulted in a loss for the Desperado's. Key players, that were absent forlhisi, game, will be joining the team ^ when they meet North Delta next week. Jr. Bantam Outlaws 32 - Richmond Rebels 0. The Oudaws got off to a slow start but in the second half got back to their winning ways. Jason Ciok had the lone major of Uie first half, and with a solid defensive effort Uie OuUaws held the Rebels off the score board. In the second half the defense continued to hold Richmond, while die offense took off. Led by the tremendous blocking of Kurt Ledwez and Bryan Pater- son on the line, Rob Cloutier ran for a 40 yard touchdown. With great blocking by Jonathan Bright clearing the way Danny Mai one scored a major. Jonathan Crowle also ran across the line for another touchdown. The offensive line then opened up a hole for Jason Ciok to score the final touchdown. All Uie converts by Jason Ciok were successful for Uie extra points. Pee Wee Colts 0 - Richmond Bears 46. The going gets tough, but the Colts keep going. The Colts in their inaugural season remain winless, despite a tremendous effort. The Colts inexperience was no match for the seasoned Richmond Bears. The Colts are showing development as a team but are struggling to get on the score board. Coach Gord Johnson said - We are completing a very strong section of Uie season against very experienced teams and we should have improved success against the more equally matched teams in the last half of the schedule". Pee Wee Mavericks 32 - Coquitlam Wolverines 6. The Mavericks defense was awesome holding the Wolverines to only 47 yards of offense and 6 points. The Mavericks hard hiuing and great blocking gave the teams offense the-opportunities theyneeded to' score. With holes opened up, the offense did their magic and marched the ball for 265 yards scoring 32 points. The offensive back field was lead by Greg Blair, who ran for 107 yards and three touchdowns. The man with the hands, Scott Thiesen crossed the goal line on a 30 yard pass from quarterback Kyle Caldwell. The Mavericks other backfield star was Jason Kenney, who rushed for 50 yards and forced his way over the goal line for a major. Coach Skip Mountain said "We can't say enough about our defense, they are Uie best". Mike Shea and Tylor Paulson were pivotal in the win with their hard hitting and great team play. Pee Wee Cowboys 6 - Richmond Raiders 12. The Langley Cowboy's fought hard against the Richmond Raiders but came up short in an excidng game. Kyle Longmuir ran an impressive 75 yards for the Cowboys touch*- down. The coaches stated 'That Billy Fisher, Laird, and David Bullock played well for the Cowboys." Bantam Posse 6 - Renfrew 23. Plagued by injuries the Posse still played a hard game against the Renfrew. On the defensive line Mac McKinnlay was stalwart in his efforts. On the offensive line Andrew Atkinson and Corin Bowman had a great game. The Posse shot themselves in Uie foot with penalties and that, in combination with the injured players, resulted in a losing effort. Jeff Hurd at running back was instrumental in many plays in holding die Posse together. The coaching staff are confident with Uie full compliment of players Uie Posse can emerge victorious from any future clashes with Uie Renfrew team. Bantam Mustangs 6 - Rich mond 36. The Roughriders continue with their dominant play in the Vancouver Mainland Football League. The Roughriders came into Langley as the Bantam Division leaders, having won all their previous regular season outings with an impressive 159 points with only 12 points scored on them. The Mustangs, who currendy hold the 11 position overall, knew they had their work cut out for them. The Roughriders wasted no time in letting the Mustangs know, why they were Bantam leaders. They overpowered the Mustangs in all areas of the game. The only highlight of the game for the Mustangs was when number 22 Russ ran one in for 65 yards for six points. Mustang head coach Tim Chesham congratulated the Roughriders on their victory and told his team they were beaten by a team who are well coached and disciplined. IhePantiy 20AAnniversi^ SpedaJb!!

The 19th annual two-day Gobbler Tournament, which is the largest annual rugby event held in B.C., takes place Saturday and Sunday at the Exhibition Park playing fields and W.J. Mouat Secondary School. "Three years ago we had the national final in Abbotsford, but this year we have eight top select or all-star teams who will be playing Cup games that are separate from the Gobbler" said Mark Latam, tournament co-ordinator for Uie Abbotsford Rugby Club. | "So this year it is a very big tournament for us. We will have close to 400 players, about 130 of them on women's teams, from Alberta, Washington and Oregon states and as far north as Prince George. Twenty four teams - 16 men and eight women - have entered so far with more expected by Thursday. All the all-star or Cup games will be played Saturday starting at 11:30 with Uie Fraser Valley juniors against Vancouver' s junior fifteen. At 1 pm there will be two games. On the east field will be a combined junior side from Kelowna and Kamloops against a mid and North Vancouver Island fifteen. On the west field the young Fraser Valley's 23 and under side - most are 20 and 21 - play against Vancouver's 23 and under team. Five of Uie Valiey team members could be from Abbotsford's first place Div. 1 fifteen after final selections arc made Thursday. The feature game at 2:30 pm will see the Fraser Valley's senior men's team against Vancouver's senior team captained by 1994 Canada World Cup scrum half Chris Tynan. A neck injury prevented Tynan from playing for Canada in this year's World Rugby Cup held in South Africa. ANNABELLE-ISM Do you know why you walk quietly past the medicine cupboard?

Again this year the Abbotsford Rugby Club will pay members of Uie Abbotsford Police Force to keep an active watch on the dance, said Latam.

Abby rugby team plays at near-national team levels Cougars capture Outlaws By MALCOLM TURNBULL ABBOTSFORD - The Abbotsford Rugby Club's first fifteen "rumbled up" their highest score of the season Saturday - a 51 to 7 pasting of Burnaby, last year's Fraser Valley League champions. "By the end of Uie game mere were so many Burnaby bodies on the field they should have been charged with littering," quipped one sage rugby observer. 'The guys are very fit and said they were not even tired at the end of the game," said head coach Dave Kyle. "We battered their forwards and we had 90 per cent ball retention, which is close to national team level performance." The team scored a total of nine tries, eight of them coming from Abbotsford's huge pack. Abbotsford stole 30 per cent of Burnaby's possessions with the tight five - the front and second row players - making four tries, two by prop Steve Preston, one each by former Hamilton Tiecat lineman Brian Mosychuk, now an Abby prop, and second row forward Pat Cochraine. Others making the goal line with tries were Todd Earnshaw, with two, team Captain Mike Schmidt, flanker Tom Turnbull and scrum half John Buchanan, both with their first scores of the year. Stand-off Rob Phillips hit three converts but had a howling 40 kilometre wind spoil eight other kick attempts. Both Schmidt, a Canadian national seven-a-side team player, and Cochraine have been selected for B.C. and wijl travel to Ottawa Thursday for the national final this Thanksgiving weekend. "And 10 of our other first division players have been selected for Fraser Valley select teams that will play weekend Cup games against Vancouver," said Kyle. "To have that number of players from one team - 10 - on select teams is quite an accomplishment." Some rugby observers at the weekend game felt Abbotsford could have six players on the BC Rugby Team by May. Kyle said that with 10 players "missing from our first and second division team pool our second team was affected." That game was won by Burnaby by 19 to 10 and coach Mike Lewis explained the main reason was concentration lapses. "We played hard but in fits and starts, and when you leave the mind behind, you make many little mistakes," Lewis said. The second team has two weeks to prepare for its next league game and Lewis said he will be working on better fitness "and lots of rugby basics." Abbotsford's third team led 6 to 0 at the half, mainly because of good effort "by our scrum," said coach Ron Oldenburger. But because of some poor tackling the team found it was down 9 to 8 midway through the second half but with seven minutes remaining fullback Tod Phillips scored near the comer. Veteran stand-off Steve Rowell then made the most difficult kick of die whole day - 10 meters in from the touch line with a perfect allowance for the 40 kilometer cross wind. Falsely thinking the game won, Abbolsfofd|F«5tr.' down and, with a minute to play, Burnaby scored to bring them within one point. But the howling wind wrecked the convert attempt, allowing Abby a 15 to 14 victory, keeping its undefeated record. The young Abbotsford junior side ran up against an older, heavier Burnaby team and lost their first game 15 to 3. However, coach Steve Verdonk was not disappointed with the effort and emphasized that "as we keep working, keep our concentration, become more familiar and learn the techniques, we will learn how to use our strengths to win against the older teams."

The first game was played in the new ARC arena in Abbotsford and the Hawks took a 9-3 verdict Abbotsford jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead after three minutes. Aaron Slagman replaced Davis Parley in the Bruins net at that point, and the move woke the Bruins up, as they never surrendered a shot on goal for the next six minutes. Meanwhile, Matt Keith intercepted a blue line pass and scored a nice goal on the breakaway to put the Bruins on the score sheet. Keith notched Uie second goal 39 seconds later after taking a pass from Steven Schultz. In the second stanza Matt Roberts narrowed Uie margin to 4- 3, hammering a hard slap shot past Uie Hawks goalie after taking a beautiful drop pass from Michael Haber. The Bruins continues to pressure but it was the Hawks who finished the period scoring, notching two more to end the period score at 6-3. The home squad rounded out the scoring in the third period with 3 unanswered markers to make the final tally 9-3. Slapshots: Take away the first 4 quick goals and it was a 5-3 game...Aaron Slagman played a strong game in the Bruins net, making the Hawks earn everytiiing they got...

The Hawks visited die Aldergrove arena on Thursday for the return match and promptly jumped out to a 3-0 first period lead. The Bruins, as they did in the third period in Abbotsford, allowed the Hawks to skate out from the comer, unchecked, and it resulted in the first score. This was followed by two deflected shots into the Bruins goal. The middle stanza was wild. Seven goals were scored, four by Abbotsford. For the local team Simon WhiUock took a pass from Mark Cassibo and skated around a defender, scoring on the short side. Ryan Castello with help from Matt Keith and Steven Schultz, scored Uie second Bruins goal. Good hard forechecking paid off for the Bruins, as Marc Windle took a pass from behind the Hawk net from Mat Roberts and roofed it. Each team scored twice in the final period to make tbe final tally 9-5 for the Hawks. Simon WhiUock, with help from Eric Strandt, scored on a similar play to his first goal. Matt Keith completed the Bruins scoring, assisted on the play by Ryan Costello. Tidbits: The Bruins continue to impress despite the score... Abbotsford is a larger team and has more individual talent. For example, big ccntreman Ryan Craig scored six goals in die two games. Players like that make you make mistakes... Our players proved to themselves, Uie coaches and the fans that if someone is going to beat them this year, they will have to earn the victory... the coaching staff is working hard and (he players are responding, with enthusiasm at practices and games...safe to say the players learned more - where they have to raise the level of their game to - in the Abbotsford series than the previous 6 games...2,200 fans jammed Uie Aldergrove arena for the exciting match... the 50-50 winner was reportedly on the way to Hawaii...Think you have it tough?

The Aldergrove Midget "A" Bruins ventured into Queen's Park Arena on Oct 1 and skated away with a 4-0 decision. This was a most disgusting exhibition of hockey (?) by the New West team. The Queen's Park squad was hammered 13-3 by Uie Bruins earlier, and the intent by New West was obvious from the opening whisUe. New West took 101 penalty minutes, including 5 majors (one 5 minute major was for slashing and a match) and 5 game misconducts. Surely, this kind of deliberate attempt at injury should draw a $500 fine from PCAHA, and stem warnings, about future behaviour. Or will the PCAHA do nodiing and wait for a serious injury?

It has always been litis way. Aldergrove residents never could even decide when to come in out of the rain. A young chap was talking to me and advanced what I thought was a very good idea. Instead of awarding the Naval Base lands north of Aldergrove to the Indians (they will get around to claiming it sooner or later anyway) the department in charge could survey the area into streets and lots for residential dwellings and give a lot to every veteran or his heir in appreciation of their service in saving the country in two world wars. As the Indians arc demanding most of B.C. anyway they would not even miss the Naval Base. Perhaps not much chance of it happening, but you can never tell.

Water savings expected Breast issues BURNABY - Construction of interim water supply facilities in Surrey and Langley Township will allow deferral of a $12-mil- lion program for a year or two, resulting in significant savings. The scheme was put together by the Greater Vancouver Regional District in association with the municipalities. The delay will not affect the GVRD's ability to meet water demands in the affected area. Every year the major project can be delayed, saves over $800,000, mainly in financing costs. The interim works, which will cost an estimated $557,000, will remain in use even after the major facilities are built, providing additional ability to supply water. Involved in the interim work is construction of 780 metres of water main on 96 Avenue, between 192 Street and 1% Street in Surrey and upgrading the Strawberry Reservoir in Langley Township. . Construction will be carried out before the summer of 1996.

Perhaps he earns it; who am I to say? What seems strange to me is so many young people spend four or five or even seven years at university and emerge with a degree and dreams of getting a good position, and if they do they are only earning sixty or seventy thousand a year. Where are our priorities? Of course there are other things to consider. The athlete has a short earning span while the person who holds the degree may increase his or her earnings as dme goes by. Funny how the season changes so quickly. A few days ago it was summer, hot and sunny with everybody sporting shorts, today it's cool and very fall-like. Don't forget the general meeting at the OAP Hall, Friday, Oct. j 5 at 1:30 pm. Increase our mem-' bcrship and join our social hour after die meeting.

Refreshments were served to finish off; time for socializing. October 26 is the date for the next Whist Party, 7:30 pm. Everyone welcome. NEW SCHOOL PROMOTION Math and science adventures goes aloft By MONIQUE GALAZKA LANGLEY - Following the great success of Building a Community of Readers, the Langley School District has embarked on a new year long event called Adventures in Math and Science, which started with last week's launching of several people, including some trustees, in a hot air balloon. The main objective of the program is to keep kids enthusiastic about math and science, because studies indicate that interest in the subjects tends to decline in the secondary school years. A second objective is to get parents involved in both school and home activities and to help them encourage their kid's inter- HMCS Discovery hosts open house VANCOUVER - HMCS Discovery, Vancouver's Naval Reserve Division, is hosting an open house, October 14. Guided tours will be conducted and displays will be presented by ship's divers and other naval specialists to inform people about HMCS Discovery's function as a naval reserve division and its role within our community. "This is our opportunity to make the public aware of the unique training our reservists are' involved in and of the contribution they make to the community" said Commanding Officer, Captain (N) Christine Ncwbum.

The 50-50 went to Cliff Anderson, Jeff Johnson and Arne Johnson. The Spot Dance was won by Georgina (I tiiink) Janis and Leroy Tour. Alma Townsend, one of die senior musicians, has had a heart attack and is in Abbotsford hospital. The dancers sent a card to cheer her up. There were about 89 at Saturday's dance, and again Valley Ramblers played. 50-50 went to Mary Sierpina, Harvey Fraser, Ruth Jackson and Chuck Bright.

He's gonna fall on us! Members of the Bradner Girl Guides were visited by roving clowns and entertainers at the Cheam area Hoedown held Monday evening at Abbotsford. Over 1,000 Girl Guides from the valley gathered to celebrate the movement's 85th anniversary with entertainers Trixie Wiggle Warm, Mimastics, Bruce Cox, and K&L Fun. Guiding came to Canada in 1910, B.C. joined the national council in 1922, and as of 1994, there were 34,496 members in this province. -Kurt Langmann photo Victims forbidden to speak From front... remorseful for his past crimes, which he blamed on substance abuse as well as the racism he encountered while growing up in the Aldergrove area. He said he came to Canada at age eight, was no longer familiar with India, and that his uncle would kill him if he returned. However, while the panel also listened to statements from Jhatoo's parents, a psychiatrist and a prison advocacy worker, they refused to hear the victim impact statements of Toore's chil-. drcn and their opinion of Jhatoo and his likelihood of re-offending. "The panel ruled that the testimony of the victim's children was inadmissible, because it would have no probative value," said their decision. Jhatoo's previous convictions include possession of stolen property in 1983, obstructing a police officer, two counts of theft under $200 and aggravated assault in the beating of a store security guard in 1984, and another aggravated assault in 1986, when he stabbed a man in the neck. The Vancouver Sun (Oct. 3) quoted the panel ruling: "Having been incarcerated at such an early age, the appellant has never really had an opportunity to prove that he can be a productive member of society. He will be given the opportunity to remain in Canada and thereby also given a second chance to prove himself." Cat protection pondered From front... numbers of cats being destroyed every year due to lack of good homes. Administrator Jim Godfrey said previous councils have attempted to attack the problem but found no practical means whereby they could enforce a bylaw on cats. Mayor John Scholtens said cats historically have "been free to roam the streets" but conceded that there are no cats, with the possible exception of feral cats, that are able to survive independently of humans and their food sources. The same could be said of the coyotes and bears in the lower mainland, which often come into conflict with humans when they attack livestock. Sheep farmers often employ dogs or llamas to protect their flocks from the former, but bears are increasingly having run-ins with the growing population here. Last week, conservation officers were forced to shoot a bear that wandered onto Montrose Avenue in downtown Abbotsford. The township's animal control officer is contracted primarily to provide dog control services but will respond to other emergencies. However, cat control is not part of the mandate and it's not certain how the officer would be able to undertake any such service. Public education on responsible pet ownership is probably the best way to turn around attitudes and reduce numbers of unwanted cats. Scholtens told McMullan, "Few are successful but you can give it a shot" even if it only succeeds in raising public awareness of the problem. As long as the problem isn't put aside and forgotten, one day some bright mind might just come up with a practical solution. Making business contacts LANGLEY - It is often said, "It's not what you know, It's who you know." In an increasingly competitive business world this is especially true. Businesses and individual consumers alike appreciate dealing with people they know or are familiar with. Networking is one way in which to meet possible business associates. The Langley Chamber of Commerce and the Business Development Bank of Canada co-sponsor a "Business After Business" evening on Wednesday, October 25, from 5 to 8 pm at the new Willowbrook Business Centre. This is an exciting opportunity for businesses to showcase their products through reserving a display table for $53.50 (includes GST). Tiiere is no charge to attend the event, however reservations are requested to ensure there is adequate food and beverages. RSVP to the chamber office at 530- 665*T).

OCTOBER 4,1995 Future of our green valley is in your hands Crafts needed for benefit fair ABBOTSFORD - People who are concerned about the environment, the health of our rivers and streams and the future of fish habitat will have to take the initiative to bring about changes, according to Greg Mallette, regional co-ordinator for the Fraser Basin Management Program. The board in charge of the program was in the news last spring when it issued a report card assigning failing grades for wastewater treatment plants; controlling urban growth; addressing pollutants from agriculture, forestry, motor vehicle use, urban development and mining; developing a comprehensive groundwater management regime and protecting fish habitat. Mallette, based at an office on the Chilliwack campus of the University College of the Fraser Valley, said people have been relying on governments to protect the environment, but government agencies are facing severe cutbacks. Mallettc's job is to help local groups of citizens establish their own neighbourhood and community committees to bring about change. He said people can get together with tiieir neighbours and decide to declare the neighbourhood a pesticide-free zone and develop guidelines for the careful use of water. Home gardeners can plant drought-resistant varieties of shrubs, trees, llowers and vegetables. And rather than pour drinking quality water on gardens, waste water from sinks and washing machines can be collected for garden use. In addition, individuals can install composting toilets in their homes. The Fraser Basin Management Program, with representatives from non-government interests, all three levels of government and First Nations communities, tries to look at all aspects of an issue. "Everyone has their own vision of how they want the basin to be," he said. But decisions such as whether to use Killcx or clear trees to a creek's edge have to be looked al from a social, economic and environmental perspective. Issues currently facing the Fraser Valley include declining air quality, traffic congestion, falling crop production, destruction of streams, loss of animal habitat and storm water runoff problems, he said. Communities should be advocating higher density housing, energy efficient technologies, a reduction in the use of pesticides and herbicides and safer and more efficient storage and timing for the spread of manure. Much of the change has to come from the citizens. There aren't enough government agencies to enforce existing regulations, Mallette said. People have to be prepared to change their lifestyles. "The cost will be much higher if we don't." At the rate things are happening, "the Fraser Valley will look like Vancouver in 30 years," he predicted. He then produced a map showing what few streams remain in the city of Vancouver. But there is also cause for optimism, he was quick to add. There is great community interest as evidenced by the growth in groups with an environmental focus. People in many municipalities are demanding expanded recycling programs. More farming operations are constructing lagoons for the safe and efficient storage of manure. This reduces the risk of manure leaching into streams and polluting groundwater and reduces the need for additional fer'tiltiprs. -Mallette is available to help people interested in starting an environmental group in their neighbourhood and he has a variety of publications with valuable background information. He can be reached at 792-7110 or 660- 1170. You can also call him on his pager, toll free, at 977-3828. In addition, the program, in conjunction with the University College of the Fraser Valley, is offering a free lecture series in the fall and winter. The first, entitled The Effects of Air Pollution on Agriculture and the. Effects of Agriculture on Air Quality, will be provided by Patricia Bowen, a specialist in field vegetable physiology at the Pacific Agriculture Research Centre. The lecture will be on Tuesday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 pm in the Lecture Theatre in Building B at the Abbotsford campus.

OCTOBER 4,1995 19 LANGLEY - When the BC . Centre for Disease Control award- red the nurses of Langley Health Unit a small grant in 1994 for an AIDS education and prevention initiative, they asked the people of the Langleys for input As a result, the very successful conference, HIV/AIDS and the Community - Exploring Current Issues, was held in Aldergrove on April 28. The 180 persons attending, enlightened, energized and enriched by the day, threw back the challenge - "AIDS information can't stop here, let's keep it going and make a difference for the Fraser Valley". So the project continues gaining momentum. A one day workshop, Advocating for Change, was held led by Anne Morrison of Langley Township Parks and Recreation Dept. She is one of the authors of the excellent federal government materials used. A community meeting in September was attended by staff from Langley Health Unit and Continuing Care Division (BC Ministry of Health), Langley Family Service, Langley School District, Langley Memorial Hospital, Langleys Community Health Council, and School Trustees, high school students, staff and volunteers from the Langley Hospice Society, friends and family and persons living with HIV/AIDS. Pathways were determined, so interested persons could be involved. If you are interested in the area of youth prevention and education, contact Joan Rankin at Langley Health Unit, 532-2300. Kay Johnson of Langley Hospice Society (530-1115) will work toward an HIV/AIDS needs assessment for the area. Kay Dennison of Langley Family Services (534-7921) and committee will work to develop a Persons with AIDS satellite office.

The three-storey, 92-bed facility was carefully designed with input from TWU's Student Affairs and students themselves to provide an environment where -juniors can live semi-indepen- dently, but still be part of a residence community. "We wanted a style where juniors could cook for themselves and have more privacy than in the regular residences," explained Allan Kotanen, assistant to the vice-president for Student Affairs. 'That's why die building is divided into six residence hall clusters, each with a large communal kitchen and combination din- ingroom/lounge. Two rooms share an adjoining washroom, and Time to tune up your marriage ALDERGROVE - Take time to tune up your marriage at a Marriage Encounter weekend on October 27-29, or a future weekend, presented by the United Expression. Over 2-million people in North America of all different faiths, have experienced a Marriage Encounter weekend. Marriage Encounter is a structured, non-threatening exercise in couple communication, a work weekend to help enrich good marriages. This weekend is not a marriage clinic or a counselling session. It is a live-in event, Friday evening to Sunday evening, free from distractions of our sometimes hectic everyday lives. The Marriage Encounter weekend gives a couple a chance to talk, to listen, and to focus on each other and their marriage. The weekend consists of a series of presentations, which the couples discuss in the privacy of their own rooms. There is no group discussion. Financially, Marriage Encounter is supported solely by donations. There is an opportunity on the weekend for couples to make a contribution to cover obvious costs such as accommodation and meals, as well as the costs involved in providing leadership. Daily problems of money, job and the children can come between us and slowly become more important that our relationship. Even the best marriages can find new meaning and deepened joys through the weekend, whether married for a short time or many years. 'The family is the basic building block of society, and marriage is the heart of the family. We feel we can make a difference if we start with us, our marriage and our family. We can see now that the greatest gift we can give our children, is an experience of our love as a couple. It is our dream that if enough people experience and recognize the beauty and importance, of their marriage, then the world will become a better place to live for all of us and our children," said organizer, Sheila Puis.

The study will determine the best method of alleviating the taste and odour problems being encountered by some consumers and maintaining the desired bacteriological and aesthetic water quality. In order to meet the above objectives, disinfection and filtration trials will be implemented at Well Nos. 6, 7, and 8. During the course of the investigation, chlorine, the most commonly used disinfectant in drinking water treatment, will be added in varying amounts to determine the optimum dose required to produce the desired water quality. Chlorination will begin during the week of October 16th. Although the chlorination study will be carefully planned and executed to minimize the impact on the consumers, some may experience a slight chlorine taste and/or odour in their water. Drinking water treated with chlorine is safe to drink, to use for cooking, to bathe in, and for other everyday use. Water used in kidney dialysis machines and aquariums, however, will require the following special precautions: Kidney Dialysis: Most kidney dialysis machines have carbon filters to remove chlorine. People using dialysis machines should check with their dialysis physician or the Langley Health Unit at 532-2300 to ensure that they are protected. Aquarium: Chlorine is toxic to fish and must be removed before the water is used in aquariums. Owners should use dechlorinating tablets which can be obtained at local pet stores. If you have questions or want more information concerning the Aldergrove chlorination trials, please contact Gary Venuti, P.Eng., at the Corporation of the Township of Langley at 533-6074.

OCTOBER 4,1995 ASK ANNABELLE Dear Annabelle, I have been married to this woman for 39 years. For now I'll call her Molly, but that isn' t what I call her under my breath. Molly is a neatness freak. In the morning I pick up my paper from the mailbox. As soon as I sit down to read it, Molly hangs about, and as soon as I've finished with one section, she has moved it into our blue bag for next week's pickup. I can't put my glasses down or she whips them up, puts them in the glass case and pops them in a drawer. When we eat, the dishes disappear from the table before I have a chance for seconds, and if I' m still hungry, I have to go to the kitchen and rummage through all the little plastic boxes in Uie fridge to find something. The final thing happened last week. I had to get up for a glass of water in the middle of (he night, and when I returned from the kitchen my bed was made. I can't take it anymore, how I managed to live with this woman for 39 years is beyond me. There must be a solution to this problem? Help me! Signed: Been to die cleaners. Dear Been to the cleaners, It is hard to believe that you have never spoken to your wife about her neatness habits and the trauma it has caused you. If you have, obviously you didn't press the point. Tell her again or tell her now to leave your things alone. If she doesn't listen, get her to your doctor, because there is something wrong with this woman. It could be you need separate vacations from each other, maybe even for a year or more. Dear Annabelle, I'm seeking assistance in setting up my new society, SWAG (Stealing With Art & Grace). I noted recently that, at the Surrey SkyTrain station parking lot, so many vehicles arc being broken into and raided that losses amount to some $40,000 a month, measured in ICBC claims. Why should a bunch of punks collect all that loot while honest folk are off at work? SWAG aims to organize a group of these commuters to take over this stealing (with art & grace) instead of going to work. Obviously Uie authorities can do nothing about it, so our only worry would be competition from the punks doing the stealing now. Maybe we could hire a security guard to keep them away, while we honest folk are doing our pilfering. No special equipment is needed for a SWAG member - just a striped shirt, mask, canvas bag labelled "LOOT", a crowbar and a pair of running shoes. A political party membership card would help explain your profession if you get caught. Now, please remember that this brilliant idea is mine. I wouldn't want somebody to steal it. S.F.

THE ALDERGROVE STAR, OCTOBER 4,1995 21 Top reiner Bob Avila, here with Mist N Smoke, will demonstrate reining skills at Superslide '95 at Cloverdale Agriplex. Reining at its finest at Agriplex CLOVERDALE - Reining is coming to the Cloverdale Agriplex, October 13 and 14. The Pacific Reining Horse Association is proud to host Superslide '95. Organizers promise that you will see reining at its finest. There will be excitement in the air, as you witness some of the finest horses on the west coast vie for in excess of $60,000 in purses, prizes and trophies. Known for its dramatic sliding stops and dizzying spins, the sport of reining, at first glance, seems to be a simple test of athletic ability. A closer look will reveal the remarkable degree of concentration, communication and discipline required of both horse and rider to successfully execute elaborate reining patterns, seemlessly moving from one physically demanding manoeuvre to the next. The judges score a reining horse based on its execution of the manoeuvres required in each pattern. Patterns are divided into the sliding stop, spins, rollbacks, circles, hesitations, lead changes and run downs. All manoeuvres are graded on correctness and degree of difficulty. The whole theory behind the reining horse is that the rider controls its every movement. The Pacific Reining Horse Association is an affiliate member of the National Reining Horse Association, established in 1966 and now has more than 6,000 members. The NRHA has instituted a movement to include reining as an Olympic event The Pacific Reining Horse Association has developed the fastest growing reining futurity in thejnorthwest. Superslide, since 1992, has realized more than a 400% increase in purses and prizes. This year the PRHA welcomes Bob Avila back to do a reining demonstration at the Saturday evening performance. The world champion trainer from Yamhill, Oregon, will be riding the world champion reining horse Lenas Wright On. Lenas Wright On was ridden to victory by Avila in the 1994 NRHA futurity in Oklahoma City, winning over $100,000. Reining is a spectator sport where you are encouraged to whistle, whoop and applaud your favourite competitor, so come on out and cheer. Superslide '95 offers a free sneak preview, on Thursday, October 12 throughout the day, of what you can expect to see at .the shows on Friday and Saturday, as well as a western trade fair, where you can purchase Superslide T- shirts and souvenir posters along with other western merchandise.

It is all part of life for caregivers By MONIQUE GALAZKA LANGLEY - A book, Reflections on Caregiving: a Sharing of Experiences has been written by caregivers of Alzheimer's victims, with the intention of creating an uplifting reading experience of anecdotes and poems sharing their experiences, and helping other caregivers relieve the situational stress they are under. The main contributors are Mildred McDonald, Bernard Parkinson and Margaret Dangle- maier. Danglemaier's husband Rudi, who suffers from Alzheimer's, is an accomplished artist whose work graces the cover. "We didn't want to make the book sad," said Danglemaier. "We wanted to be positive because when the day comes to put someone you love in a home, it is much harder than anyone can imagine, but it's part of the process." McDonald agreed. "We didn't want gloom or to make people cry," she said, "But it is very frustrating when your husband asks where the phone is, and two minutes later asks again. "It's hard to stop the anger and it's easy to snap, but there arc ways around it. "When he could still read, I would write him little notes, which he seemed to understand better than my telling him something, and then he wouldn't ask again." All three writers received help from the Alzheimer Society and Jeannine McCarthy, Coordinator for the Fraser Valley Regional Branch. The society holds group sessions for caregivers which a*y beneficial to all involved, even those who have been around for a while, like McDonald. Her husband, Joe died in 1989, but she still attends meetings to share her experiences with others who desperately need some hope in their lives. "Some people come to meetings and don't say a word. Others just cry. But after a few meetings, they know they're not alone and start to open up," she said. "Many people come for support, until their spouse is not longer with us and then stop coming, which is all right, but I still attend, because people need someone to talk to, to get tilings off their chest. I've been there and I'm glad now to sit and listen. "What else is there, if you can't help someone? It's not just caring for the patient. Caregivers need support too." Danglemaier says the group support is very helpful compared to help from a professional person. "There are so many books written by 'professionals'," she said, "But after reading a couple of pages, it becomes obvious that the writer never cared for an Alzheimer's patient for more than five minutes. "The books say caregivers should 'get a life' but they don't say how. The Alzheimer Society and the support group helped me figure out how to, 'get a life.' "I have learned not to pull our relationship apart but to develop little side interests. It really helps." Parkinson agreed adding, 'two lives don't pull apart that easily.' "At first when I heard about the support group I thought it wouldn't help me to listen to odiers," he said, "But I got a great deal of help from listening to others, and how they handled different situations." The $15 book is called Reflections on Caring: a Sharing of Experiences, and is available through the Fraser Valley Regional Alzheimer Society. For more information call 533- 5277.

"The government's policy of burning valuable beetle-infested timber in parks, rather than allowing it to be logged, is a terrible waste of a precious resource that is hard to fathom in rural British Columbia," Fox said. "Instead of torching nearly one million cubic metres of beetle-infested pine in Tweedsmuir Park, the province should allow local lumber mills to use that precious wood to keep forest workers employed." Fox explained that local forest management consultants estimate the Tweedsmuir Park burn program will destroy approximately $80-million worth of potential lumber and deprive the province of some $30-million in potential stumpage revenues. The timber in question would be enough to provide direct employment for about 100 loggers, 40 truckers and 250 sawmill workers for one year. "For the life of me, I can't understand why any government would set this wood on fire and run the risk of starting a major forest fire, rather than using that resource to keep forest workers employed," Fox continued. "With the technology available today, every stick of that timber can be responsibly harvested, without jeopardizing the park, and the province would be $110-mil- lion richer for it. It's high time the Harcourt government reconsidered its current policy on this issue - particularly in this case - to keep people working in niral British Columbia."

Reply to: Box S-21, c/o The Aldergrove Star, 3089 - 272 St., Aldergrove, B.C. V4W3R9 Who is held accountable? From page 4 self and told them to stop. For this, Inthavong beat Kirby with a baseball bat, then a younger accomplice put a pistol to Kirby's head and pulled the trigger. Coldblooded execution in a well-lit, popular, public parking lot — a senseless death sentence on Kirby. The young offender, nameless hut Canadian-born, got the maximum allowable sentence for murder: three years. Inthavong, an adult, whom police identified as the gang leader, received five years and a deportation order. Inthavong served about three years in jail, and has been incarcerated during recent months only because officials believe he may disappear from sight before the deportation order, can be enforced. Understandably, Inthavong has been fighting the order every step of the way. Inthavong uses allegations of racism as his defence, but when you consider that Canadians, in general, have been supporting Inthavong with tax dollars ever since he first came here, including the legal aid that's fighting the deportation order, Inthavong's argument is specious as well as an insult to common decency and intelligence. The public cares not a whit where he came from,- but people are intolerant of violent thugs, and if we can export them, that's an option most would go along with, as we don't seem to have the answer to these problems in our justice and rehabilitation system. White has focussed on this case, because he believes "politicians have abrogated their responsibilities with politically-appointed (immigration and refugee) boards." Board members are not required to have relevant training or experience, they're not "policed", and they're not personally responsible or liable for their errors in judgment, said White, adding that boards are "not concerned with (lie safety of Canadians, but are concerned only with the safety of refugees, if they are returned to their own country. The minister (Sergio Marchi) can't question or reverse the decisions of his own board... We have to take the system back." White said he thinks too many of these cases are "rubber- stamped", but there is no way to find out without personally attending all the immigration and refugee board meetings. "It's not .humanly possible, because there's three or four cases heard every day in every major city, and the boards don't want anything on record. If tiieir decision is positive, they don't put it down in writing, it's only when it's negative that they put their reasons down in writing for the public." White said it was only because of the pressure he brought to the Inthavong case that the board allowed Kirby's family to submit "victim impact statements" for the record. He said he was not surprised to hear that the immigration board, as reported last week in the Vancouver Sun, did not allow the children of murder victim Ranjit Kaur Toore to submit their "victim impact statements" in the successful appeal of contract killer Satpal Singh Jhatoo to remain in Canada. That story boggles the mind. I The Aldergrove mm "lllegitumus non carborundum" DO YOU HAVE A SERVICE TO OFFER? Star display ads are-only $8.50 per column/inch 856-8303 looked up the April 16, 1987 Star story, headlined "Conspirator gets 15 years." Ranjit, 45 and mother of six, had a disagreement with her estranged husband regarding an arranged marriage he planned for one of the children, and her bludgeoned body was found inside a burned-out Matsqui home the previous December. Justice Samuel Toy in New Westminster handed out 15 years to Jagraj Singh Toore after he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder, while Jhatoo, who pleaded guilty to second degree murder, was sentenced to life with a minimum of ten years before parole would be considered. Jhatoo completed his high school in prison and was released seven years later, in early 1994, and following numerous and serious parole violations as well as a new criminal charge, was thrown back behind bars in Matsqui Institution, from where he made his successful plea to stay in this country. He says he's sorry about the murder and won't do it again. That might be so, but once again he blames his sins on the racist abuse he received here in the Aldergrove area where he grew up. Racism is prevalent here, as it is just about anywhere there are people, we've all seen and heard it, but it's a bit of a stretch to logically deduce, that some redneck treatment he experienced caused him to accept an offer of cash and other goodies to brutally kill a defenceless woman in her own home. I don't get it — is he trying to say that Ernst Zundel and his ilk forced Jhatoo to commit this crime? I could possibly understand why the refugee board allows him to make these claims at his hearings, but I don't understand why Toore's children, who were virtually made orphans by Jhatoo, are not allowed to tell the refugee board what they think of, and know about, Jhatoo's personal history. People from the Punjab, primarily Sikhs, have a long history on our west coast, especially in the so-called "Bible belt" of Abbotsford, where they have made many important contributions. They have also been victims of gross injustices, dating back to the times of their founding ten gurus in the 1500s, and even fairly recent efforts by the departing British colonists and the parliamentary democracy of India to create a Sikh state or homeland inside that country have caused more hardships than many Sikhs could bear. That is why B.C. was the chosen new home for so many Sikhs, beginning at the turn of the century ~ I've been to India, and realize there's many similarities that would make B.C. attractive to Punjab people. And like all other immigrants, they came here because there's good opportunities in a country that's trying to be a fair and just society. However, Canadians are disappointed with the government's success at eliminating both bigotry and thuggery. White said he supports a national policy of accepting "our fair share of refugees" (and immigrants) and a general policy of overlooking refugees' personal history in the country from which they've fled. Canadians also provide services such as ESL to help these people get on their feet, and to their credit most become valuable and productive citizens. However, if they abuse the privileges given to them, White says the government must have the tools and the conviction to remove them promptly: "Break the law and we will deport you." Wm.
