Canada is still in one piece; .British Columbia hasn't slid into the Pacific Ocean. Quebec, too, is still with us. And we all go along our daily business, trying to make enough money to pay our taxes. Yes - No, it really didn't matter that much at all. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, in possession of Some ballots missing LANGLEY - All of the riding's polls weren't oounted as of The Star's presstime, but it appears that Fraser Valley West had one of, if not the biggest "NO" votes in the national referendum, Monday. The "NO" vote was leading at over 75 percent in the riding. The referendum went down to defeat, as over 53 percent of Canada's voters, and six of the provinces rejected the Charlottetown deal. Voter turnout was also heavy with about 75 percent of eligible voters marking ballots. Following the piper Joe MacDonald, school children gathered inside a huge maple leaf outline at Campbell Park, Monday as part of the dedication of the Order of Canada Grove of trees. . -Kurt Langmann photo*. true Irish impudence, will continue to lead the country. Where to, nobody knows. At least for the time being ... Will the politicians in Ottawa dare to go on speaking Constitution' Or have they got enough smarts to realize that Canadians are sick and tired of listening to that squabble and that they now at last expect their political leaders to put some effort in on the Economy? Canadians are a realistic people, and they don't expect a quick fix. What they do expect is a bit of effort. Such as a government that will make an attempt at bringing spending and the budget under control and introduce much-needed and long overdue relief to a people that enjoys the dubious distinction of being one of the heaviest taxed societies in the entire world in the 1990s. A people that is being brought to its knees by incompetent Aman Sharma holds his gold medal, received for the bravery he showed in rescuing his father, Yogi from certain death in an icy lake last spring. -Kurt Langmann photo Young boy, 12, saves dad's life By KURT LANGMANN ALDERGROVE - A twelve year old boy's love for his father has made him a hero. The fact that Aman Sharma's dad, Yogi, is still alive is more than enough reward for Aman, but Saturday's special ceremony honoring the life-saving youth was a happy note in a time when our youth seem to get a lot of negative publicity. Lieutenant Governor David Lam presented the Governor's Gold Medal for Bravery to Aman, at the 81st presentation of Commonwealth Honour and Lifesaving Awards. Aman received the highest award given by the Royal Life Saving Society in B.C. and the Yukon, after the youth put his own life in serious jeopardy to save Yogi. The Sharma family were visiting the north County Line area, Sunday, where they still own a home (which they currendy rent out) and they still have many friends in the Aldergrove area that they like to visit. For the past four years the family has lived in Willow River, just east of Prince George, where Yogi has a service station. It was near there last April 26 that the boating accident took place. Yogi, his three boys and their .friends were camping and fishing on the lake in Harold Mann Park, and were packed to leave for home about midnight. The friends drove the two youngest Sharma boys back, while Yogi and Aman took the 14' aluminum boat back across the lake to the trailer. "We were sailing smoothly, then we hit a submerged log," explained Yogi. "The next instant we were thrown into the water... it happened so fast we didn't have time to grab the gunwale or anything. The boat almost capsized, but it straightened out again and kept going around the lake. "ft was very cold. The lake had just freed up... ten days before it 'Hero', page 2 politicians who can't see any further than their own noses. Quebec will sooner or later have its own referendum on whether or not they want to remain with Canada. They would have had the same referendum if Monday's federal vote had been a Yes. No difference there. Now it behooves our leaders to do something consbuctive for a change. Something that might even persuade our Quebecois brethren that, hey, it's a good deal to stay with Canada. We agree with local Tory MP Bob Wenman that Canada, despite all its problems, is the best country in the world and British Columbia the best of the best. Too bad he hasn't been able to sell this vision to his own government in Ottawa. Perhaps now? Or does it have to remain forever and a day a dream? VOL.34 NO.43 THURSDAY. OCT.29.1992 40CENTS Established 1957 3089-272nd Street Fax:856-5212 Phone:856-8303 Taxpayers' league sets up B.C. shop VICTORIA - The prairie-based Canadian Taxpayers Federation has set up a research office in Victoria keeping an eye on the government's use, or misuse, of taxpayers money. The four-year-old organization already has a few members in B.C., but nearly 50,000 in other western provinces. Kevin Avram, one of the CTF's founders, says the two-man operation here will tackle the crown-owned Insurance Corporation of B.C. first. "We'll be comparing its rates versus rates elseWhere^iLiie says, "As well as examining the government's spending growth over the past two decades." Avram says his group is not a lobby group and will not be exerting pressure on government. "We aim at educating the taxpayers about how their money gets spent," he says. So far the CTF has championed a plebiscite in Saskatchewan calling for balanced budget legislation, and helped kill a crown agency called the Future Corp. which had a mandate to fund imaginative and perhaps New school on board MURRAYVILLE - Councilors here have given their sanction to removing a 12-acre parcel in the Aldergrove area from the agricultural land reserve. Parcel at 3250 - 264 Street is to be used for a new elementary school and an adjoining park. Is it big enough? asked Coun. Aubrey Searle. He suggested that this was "not that large a parcel," and perhaps the school board should be looking around for a bigger site. Application is being forwarded to the provincial land commission. imaginary schemes. It also puts out a newsletter revealing the findings of its 23 staff members across the Canadian west. Avram says in practice there is no difference between governments of the left and right, though he found more sympathy among politicians on. the right. In government they behaved the same. Grant Devine, Saskatchewan's conservative premier during the 1980s, "came into office with no operating debt, but never balanced a budget and left Saskatchewan an economic basket case." Revenues drop VICTORIA - The opposition has charged that the New Democratic government's own policies are to blame for the $772-million shortfall in revenues recorded in the first quarterly report. If revenues over the first three months were projected over the year, they would total $15.09- billion. That's $1.1-billion less than predicted in the budget. And if current expenditures were likewise projected, they would total $17.19-billion, only $880-million less than estimated. The bottom line would be a $2.1- billion deficit, well above the $1.79-billion in red ink forecast in the.budget. PUBLICATIONS MAIL REGISTRATION NUMBER 1270 Postage Prepaid, Aldergrove, B.C.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 Fairness backlabor Board in a bind VICTORIA - The new provincial labor legislation was kept under tight wraps until Tuesday, when it was tabled in the legislature, but B.C.'s largest labor union claims that their preview "shows that "fairness is back in B.C. labor law (and) it's none too soon." CUPE president Bernice Kirk approves measures to make "scab" labor illegal and "a less threatening approach to union certification." However, she was disappointed that the issue of secondary picketing was not included. CUPE represents 52,000 employees. Hero' Cheaper Froni front was frozen." While Aman was wearing a lifejacket, Yogi was not, and Yogi had also been struck on his head and was fast losing consciousness. £?*s^ However, Aman swam over to Yogi and held his father's head up. Aman clung to his dad, lifting him up each time he submerged, and calling out to him, "Don't die, Dad!" Yogi was wearing heavy winter | jacket and clothing along with heavy fireman's style gumboots. Yogi said once these filled with water, "It was just about impossible to take them off, there was too much suction. I tried to kick them off, and Aman tried to pull them off, but we couldn't." Yogi pleaded with his son .to leave him and swim to shore before Aman succumbed but he refused. Soom Yogi lost con-~ sciousness, and Aman stayed with him, keeping him afloat and calling to him. Aman grabbed his father's collar and started the long swim, almost a mile, towards'-shore. Thanks to Aman's calling, three teenagers in a car by the lake heard the distress cry and also took note of the boat circling the lake. They shone their headlights out to try to pinpoint the cries, and another group of campers put their boat out to find the Sharmas. The boaters had to follow their ears, explained Yogi "They had to turn their motor off and listen for Aman's cries to find us. It took a while." The boaters finally found the two, but their boat was small and they were unable to pick the heavyset and unconscious Yogi out of the water and into the boat. Aman refused to leave his father's side and the two were towed to shore by the boaters,"- who incidentally were good . customers of Yogi's business. Now, they're also good friends and neighbors. The two had spent 35 to 40 minutes in the frigid water, and ambulance paramedics were not sure that Yogi would make it. There was hardly a pulse, and body temperature was 29 degrees, just two degrees above what is considered critical. It was that close to tragedy. The story of perhaps the most frightening ordeal of anyone's life has a happy ending, as the family is alive and well, and Yogi now owns a full set of approved lifejackets. And a young man who showed bravery and determination is a hero. Aman is very quiet and modest about his heroic act. But when' he stands next to his father, you can see what really matters to him. rates not allowed § MURRAYVILLE - "It's a catch-22 situation," said Stephen Jackson. The manager of a local taxi company said that he was "required by law" to seek a tariff increase although he didn't really, want to. Because the Langley-based cab company services the Vancouver international airport, any increase sought and granted to metropolitan taxi companies will have to be followed by applications from other operators within the region, he said. Jackson said his company would like to pass the increase on to cheaper rates for seniors but had to explain this to the Motor Carriers Commission. He said he was really hoping for a reduction, believing that "it is better by volume" than simply by increased rates that might scare customers away. "Some (operalting) costs are lower here in the valley," he said, "and we would like to reflect- that." Jackson said the cab business is governed by "eighteen regulatory (government) bodies." Doctors opt out VICTORIA - The only way doctors can save B.C.'s health system is by withdrawing from medicare, the spokesman for 50 doctors in Prince George who intend to abandon the medical services plan on January 1 say. Dr. Jan Burg says half the doctors in Prince George and half the doctors in Prince Rupert will soon join the seven Nanaimo specialists in internal medicine who have opted out of medicare, and the 29 general practitioners who are also completing the paperwork for the move. If doctors did not leave the plan, according to Burg, they would be forced to either hold back services that pushed them beyond the government's allotment, or do the services for free. "The government's policy means a rationing of services, plain and simple." By withdrawing, and billing clients directly, Burg says, the medical profession can recommend whatever they feel is best, regardless of cost. Of course, there is a chance that this would force poorer patients to forego treatment. By KURT LANGMANN LANGLEY - School district officials are caught in a quandary Once again over conflicting messages from the education ministry. Their on-going financial difficulties as one of the poorest- funded of the province's 75 districts scarcely receive a five minute hearing from the Education Funding Review Panel. "And even at that the chairperson, Cindy Spangelo kept looking at her watch," wryly commented board chairperson, Marlene Grinnell. Langley district, along with seven other districts with similar problems (and 35 percent of the province's- school population), got an hour-long hearing, Monday, but Grinnell said no immediate reaction was forthcoming. This has been compounded with the School Act's new Regulation 8, which calls for more instruction time than allowed in the current teachers' contract. The regulation demands a minimum of 190 days with 1,045 hours for secondary students and 950 hours for elementary students. Grinnell said that this requirement leaves Langley short three days, and a daily shortfall of 17 minutes for secondary and six minutes for elementary, and the Langley Teachers' Association isnt interested in re-opening the contract to meet the legislation. "The (LTA's) position is that any agreement will cost the 'board money," said Grinnell. This, the board, currently working with a $1.2-million deficit, can't meet. The cost is expected to be at least $800,000 for the extra three days alone. Langley is not alone on this as most boards in the province have similar contracts with teachers. It was resolved in Port Alberni, when arbitration took the board's side, but there is no real precedent as contract language is different for all districts.

Grinnell, superintendent Emery Dosdall and treasurer Paul Makortoff are all scratching their heads over how to handle this situation, which Grinnell said, truly was the "ticking bomb" that Vancouver Sun columnist Jamie Lamb wrote about last month. Langley district fears that if they don't meet the regulation the district's funding will be docked accordingly, and yet to fight it will also cos.t money, whether it be arbitration, mediation or legal challenge. Makortoff said their current contract negotiations with teachers will have to include meeting the new regulation, but he says the LTA is, "not interested in talking about it," unless there's more money on the table for the "extra workload." Lamb's column said teachers are angry that the New Democrat government has brought this regulation forward, "and are fighting it vigorously... around the province... (but) don't want this issue or argument made public. If it were to become public, teachers fear they would be seen as money-grubbing opportunists, interested less in education and more in their pay and perks. They are right to fear that perception..." In any case, the teachers' desire to keep the issue quiet appears to be in vain. Canadian economy very weak TORONTO - The weak economic environment abroad, especially in the U.S., has dimmed Canada's economic prospects for recovery this year, according to economists at the Toronto Dominion Bank. In the fall 1992 issue of its quarterly publication, Canada's Business Climate, TD economists point out that the encouraging growth in the Canadian economy at the beginning of the year came largely from exports sold into a strengthening U.S. economy. Much slower growth in the United States in the second quarter dampened demand for Canadian exports. "With Canadian domestic demand still very weak, the lack of stimulus from abroad meant that Canada's real final demand was unchanged in the second quarter," says senior economist Anna Guthrie. Economic growth is not likely to strengthen substantially before the end of this year in the U.S. or in Europe and Japan. Prospects are, however, better for 1993. Most of Canada's trading partners are forecast to experience improved economic growth next year and increased demand for Canadian exports will be enhanced by the lower dollar, the economists say. -€$£m?

OCTOBER 29. 1992 Natives to collect tax MURRAYVILLE - An Indian blanket was displayed here by township Mayor John Beales Monday night. It was a gift, the mayor, explained. Blanket was given to the mayor after he signed an agreement with the Matsqui Indian band of the Sto:lo nation granting them the right to levy taxes on reserve land. Historic agreement was signed last Thursday. According to Beales, "it is a major stepping stonei . in the advancement of future relations between the township of Langley and the. Matsqui band." What the document does, is provide the legal right for the Matsqui band to levy taxes against the lease tenants of Pioneer Park in south Aldergrove. The mobile homes community is located on reserve land which is not occupied by any members of the band. The band council also looks after the collection of the taxes and will have to forward payment in the amount of 62 percent of this total revenue to Langley township for services provided by the municipality. Wjiyi The new agreement prevents a situation whereby double taxation could become a problem, Beales said. The Sto:lo Indians could also have opted for separate municipal status under amendments to the Indian Act made in 1988, but chose instead to go for the right to independent taxation. The woolen blanket will be on display in the municipal hall. Whenever a deal is made, gifts are exchanged, the mayor explained..

The "no questions asked basis" will be honored for those with weapons to be disposed of or registered, although if a weapon has been used in a criminal offence "the appropriate enforcement action will be taken." The program offers the public the opportunity to dispose of all unwanted firearms, register all previously unregistered restricted firearms, and dispose of ammunition, military "souvenirs" and explosive substances. For information call the RCMP at 532-3200. Universality thing of past OTTAWA - Universal baby bonuses are definitely on the way out to be replaced by a system that awards baby bonus cheques only to those families in need. Under new legislation, planned to be in place by January 1, Canadians will see welfare families receive the equal benefit of $1,020 annually per child that they currently receive. The working poor will also be entitled to receive an earned- income supplement of up to $500 a year. For those families earning over $75,000, there will be no entitlement to the bonuses. "This bill is the final nail in the coffin of universality," said Roger Simmons, Liberal MP from Newfoundland. £JJ&3rJM MATSQUI - Four people have been charged after a botched kidnapping ended with a police chase and the fatal shooting of one of the kidnappers by the kidnap victim, Oct. 21. S"*f|§ David Michael Shreve, 31, of Surrey, was shot at about 6 p.m., when a police car attempted to stop the kidnap vehicle, which was weaving erratically on the Coquihalla Highway. A handgun went off in a struggle with kidnap victim, Conrad Shultz, 33, of Parksville. Shreve's injury was fatal. A woman inside the van, Tanya Chepsiuk, 21, of Surrey, was also arrested at the scene. Three other people were subsequently arrested at a Matsqui home. Charged are Deborah Johnson, 35, of Matsqui, Joseph Ratte, 34, of Vancouver, and Denis Poisson, 22, of Vancouver. Police said the: kidnapping began on Tuesday, Oct. 20, when Shultz was taken from his home in Parksville to the home in Matsqui,- where demands for a large sum of cash were made to a friend of Schultz's. The victim was then assaulted and taken by two of the abducters to the Hope area, where the police chase began. Police said they believe the kidnapping was drug-related, and it also led to the discovery of a marijuana grow operation in Matsqui. Two semi-automatic handguns were also seized.. The four people appeared in court, Tuesday on a number of kidnapping and unlawful confinement.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 EDITORIAL The best ALDERGROVE - Fraser Valley West is maybe the best part of British Columbia, and our elected Member of Parliament, Bob Wenman, says British Columbia is the best part of Canada, and Canada the best country in the world. A. lot of pride and patriotism there. But we like to think it is true. We are proud of our country, just like the people of any other nation in the world are proud of theirs. Wm» Fraser Valley West is also unique. We have elected a Tory • to represent us in the Canadian parliament, and yet this constituency responded to the national referendum on the constitution with a No vote greater than perhaps any other political riding in the entire nation, more than 75-5 percent of the ballots cast. That is a message for the politicians in Victoria and Ottawa to ponder. And they better be quick about it, for the people in Fraser Valley West (perhaps more than anybody else in the country) have given them a clear ultimatum: Shape up, or else ... LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Heartless society Editor, The Star, Sir, • You reprinted ah article by Mr. David Somerville which states that a study by this certain professor was published by the "respected" Fraser Institute. Unfortunately it does not state who the Fraser Institute is respected by, and for what it is respected. The institute, and the professor are extreme radical Hang him! Editor, The Star, Sir, Once again the evening news tells of a little girl of six being sexually assaulted and then killed. This little girl who hadn't even started her life had it taken from her in such an inhuman manner. Frequently, you hear about the rights of the perpetrators, the cruelty of the death sentence - but what about the victim's rights? This little girl did not have any rights to life in the eyes of the perpetrator. If he is found and convicted why then should he have any right to live? MAIKEN ANDERSEN Aldergrove Too scary Editor. The Star, Sir, The Western Canada Wilderness Committee is directing a lot of resources towards the media in an effort to tell British Columbians how to manage our forests. The Western Canada Wilderness Committee reported receipts of $2,852,154. on their Registered Charity Information Return for fiscal year 1991. Less than a year later they claim to be $350,000. in debt Given those facts, the consequences of having the Western Canada Wilderness Committee manage British Columbia's number one industry is simply too scary to contemplate. ART DUHAME Woss.B.C. right-wing ideologues. That means that facts and information get distorted in order ot provide "evidence'' for their particular view of society. Their view of society is that this is a dog eat dog world and the fittest will survive and too bad for the rest. They view the underdog as a charity case. That the wealthy, in their good time and their good hearts, will take care of the poor, if they feel so inclined. The redefinition of poverty suggested by Mr. Somerville is a fabrication and a manipulation of statistics (lies, damned lies and statistics) which is intended to make the rest of us feel OK - OK that children are hungry, that women feel it their only alternative to prostitute themselves, that more and more people feel that violent crime is their only response to a heartless society. The scorn the author has earned is not only from welfare activists, it is also from thinking and caring Canadians.

CANADA SEPARATES FROM OTTAWA, WE LET WE BLUE JAYS TAKE OVER AN' PRESTO, EVERYdODY'S HAPPY EH I What every baby knows By MONA CHAREN A new study reveals that babies, some as young as five months old, have an innate understanding of math, reports the New York Times. Well, that puts most babies ahead of me. Now you don't ask a five- month-old how much two and two equals. But there are ways of figuring out that they understand addition and subtraction. (No one is yet suggesting that babies know algebra). The researchers placed several Mickey Mouse dolls in front of the babies and then let the children see another doll being placed next to the visible ones but behind a screen. When the screen was removed, the babies stared longer (indicating surprise at the unexpected) if the total number of dolls differed from what they had previously seen. Get it? If not, I may not have explained it very well, or you may not stack up to your infant in braininess. This research adds to our knowledge about the innate abilities of young babies, once thought to "be insensate eating, sleeping and pooping machines. It has long been accepted in .scientific circles that linguist (and loony leftist) Noam Chomsky was right about babies' innate ability to learn language. Chomsky said babies don't just imitate adults, they make sense of language according to rules. A fascinating footnote to Chomsky's thesis was added recently. In studying children raised by deaf parents, scientists discovered that these children begin to sign babble at exactly the same age as hearing babies begin to babble noises. But it won't come as news to any parent that children are born with innate knowledge and abilities. There is, for example, the innate knowledge babies have that the stereo is one thing Mom and Dad do not want him to play with. Research by harried parents has also revealed that babies know VCRs are fun to destroy, as are remote controls and telephones. In fact, there is a theory, yet to be tested in double-blind studies, that babies are actually motivated to crawl precisely to get at the VCR. A few months later, the impetus to begin walking comes from an innate desire to open the refrigerator and the oven. Our son Jonathan has just begun to walk. And he doesn't just open the refrigerator, he tries to climb the shelves. He can grab two apples and take bites out of them in the time it takes me to find the milk. Or he'll go for the condiments on the door and have them on the floor in two seconds flat. My husband and I take almost diabolical pleasure therefore in those wonderful gadgets they make to defeat the plans of toddlers. After we had installed the Velcro lock on the refrigerator, we smiled with glee when our son couldn't open the door. But then our smiles faded. "Gee," we said, "We've outsmarted a 10-month-old." But of course, people don't have (or adopt) children to make their lives more orderly or their homes more beautiful. We do it for the humor. Babies' first steps are always bathed in sentiment later. And I will admit that I was so proud of Jonathan when he took six steps in a row (age 10 and a half months) that my face went red and my eyes welled. But after that, the spectacle became hilarious. At first, kids just propel themselves forward until gravity takes them down. Jonathan would thrust both hands over his head and run, squealing all the way. (So much for the old saw about having to walk before you run). But the fun really begins when they start compensating and attempting to maintain their balance. For the first few days, this technique took Jonathan in large circles, like a banking airplane. Now, he steps forward in a mincing movement, toes first, eyes shining with pleasure at his accomplishment. No sooner had. he mastered balance than we set him back a bit by buying shoes for him. His first forays in his baby Nikes resembled an adult attempting to walk on dry land wearing swimming flippers. I'm sure the researchers are right that babies know how to add and subtract. But what is \ beyond counting is how much they add to your life. Apes point the way LONDON - A complex language of signs and gestures has been developed by the pygmy ape to communicate peace, love and understanding. Unlike other apes, the pygmy (pan paniscus) cornmunicates by signs and gestures for friendly reasons rather than for aggression, attacks or foraging, according to Dr.Ellen Ingmanson of the Kyoto University. Ingmanson, who has been studying their communication and that of the chimpanzee, says the apes lack vocal apparatus. Pan paniscus apes, found only in the African country of Zaire, use branch dragging, a noisy act performed by male apes in the dense rainforest. Another element of their language is rocking, which is a request for close contact, sex, grooming or sitting next to each other. Ingmanson says she understands what they are saying, but the apes refuse to communicate with her in their own language. Dr.Gordon Hewes of the University of Colorado, says he believes it supports the idea that humans are predisposed to communicate by gestures and mime as well. Stop! f demanded on gravel pit project MURRAYVILLE - The lawyer for a group of Hazelmere residents told council members here Monday night that his clients cannot afford lawsuits against Surrey municipality or the owner-operators of a gravel pit near the south Surrey-Langley border. George Wool asked Langley councilors to seek a court injunction halting progress on the gravel pit operated by Westcoast Aggregates. There has not been a problem yet, but it is too late when that happens, Wool said. Resident- neighbors of the pit at 16 Avenue and 196 Street fear that their water wells will run dry when the mine is deepened and are also afraid of sewage contamination. People on the Surrey side have received some sort of a guarantee that they will be compensated financially if anything goes wrong, but on the Langley side of the municipal boundary the residents have not been assured of such a deal. Wool asked councilors to seek a legal opinion on the matter from their own solicitors. If they fail to do that, he said, it.could cost them dearly in the end by having to provide water and sewer lines to the area. Mayor John Beales and municipal administrator'.jsbm Godfrey said Langley has already "done that but, added Godfrey, the solicitors had advised against it on the grounds that it would be an "inappropriate (way) to ulse public funds." Try again, said Wool. Seek another opinion. "(Legally) it's a hairy area," said lawyer-councilor John Campbell. . Beales said council is "waiting for word" from their Surrey colleagues, and that hopefully the response from Mayor Bose of that municipality would be a positive one. Langley councilors have asked their Surrey counterparts to include the Langley residents in the performance bond insurance posted by the company. New patrol out MURRAYVILLE - Langley's RCMP detachment has been increased by six new officers on staff. A letter from the provincial attorney general's office indicates that the federal and provincial governments have approved of Langley's request, and the new officers have already been assigned.

The grove of trees will serve as, "a living reminder of service by British Columbians that will continue to grow." ; Hnatyshyn, who shared his tree planting duties with Langley Prairie Elementary School student, Stirling Noyes, also told the 125 students participating in the tree planting' ceremony to, "make a commitment to come back to care for and preserve the tree they plant today... look after the country, a united free society we are so proud of today." Also present were Order of Canada recipient Patrick Reid, who acted as master of ceremonies for the afternoon, Gerta Hnatyshyn, Cornelia Hahn ■Oberlander GM, GVRD chair mayor Gordon Campbell and Langley's mayors Joe Lopushinsky and John Beales. Gordon Campbell said the ceremony marked not only the nation's 125th anniversary but also the 25th anniversary of the Greater Vancouver Regional District, and it was, "important that the planting took place in the first GVRD park." He added that the park was not named after him. Entertainment was provided by local piper Joe MacDonald, Mountain Secondary School Choir and the Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School Concert Band. MacDonald led the children to the outline of a maple leaf in the park for photographers to mark - the occasion. Hnatyshyn and Oberiander unveiled the plaque which marked the 125th anniversary project, one of several taking place across the country this year. Oberlander designed the grove, and Hnatyshyn also gave credit to Mary Alice Stewart, who along with Patrick Reid, has co-chaired the Governor General's celebrations and the 125th anniversary committees. THE ALDERGROVE STAR. OCTOBER 29. 1992 Heritage hall headed for the rubble heap MURRAYVILLE - It is going to come down. The wrecking ball will soon shatter the old Brookswood fire hall into a heap of rubble. The space on which the building still sits will be converted to a public mini-park at a cost of $40,510. Some council members have tried to save the old building. It could be used by the public for a number of recreational pursuits, they have argued, and would be a shame to tear down. The latest would-be tenant user was the Langley Boxing Club. They would be willing to put money and effort into restoring the building, Coun. Blood clinic at TWU •LANGLEY - The Red Cross blood donor clinic visits Trinity Western University, Thursday, Nov. 5 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The clinic is inside the Fraser Hall, at 7600 Glover Road, and the public is welcome to attend. John Scholtens told his fellow councilors here Monday night in a last-ditch effort to save the building. Coun. Aubrey Searle said the building could be "made safe" for a nominal cost rather than the $150,000 to $200,000 other council and staff members say it would take just to bring the building up to current code standards. "Nothing fancy," he said. "It has to go, and the sooner the better,"-meant Coun. John Campbell. Councilors have argued the matter for several months after the Brookswood volunteer fire department vacated the building and moved into a brand new million-dollar facility earlier this year. With tongue-in-cheek, Mayor John Beales suggested that the half could be "turned into a rec facility for council" to continue arguing the pros and cons. But in the end, the 'it's gotta go' side won. *> FOUR STAR 3092 - 272nd St, Aldergrove ALDERGROVE'S BIGGEST AND BEST VIDEO SUPER STORE 856-8733 PLENTY OF PARKING BY SUPER VALU MALL • 2 DAY RENTALS MICHAEL IP?: DANNY K EATON DeVITO MICHELLE PFEIFFER BATMAN S RETURNS -*:■> i WAi^ERB30S."*aaaatl £§T«Sy *" aTUIBUflTONrit*MECKAELXEATON BMWt&VITO MiCHEiXEPFBfFBl TWTMMtKIUflNS* _Jl«CRtfLGOUGH PATHWGLE W(Ml»WRPmitoi»Df«IYaf«Ar, t^MwJORItilftrTCM^ , irt-f»t^a»^6t«i»806K«tt*M*M S=>»^i>DAmWrJBgf»^^09clg0lc*^ HMaWOKDia-*»TM BURTON ||§| 3 Mfeaftra-ria-tlto ATtoo Vtmatt rutTitaatiiml Caafmj ABSOLUTE BEST SELECTION AND DEALS IN TOWN !!!

The latest is Numerology. He is driving me nuts with this latest one. He says it would be lucky for us, our children included, if we all had names with seven letters in them. Apparendy this is a sign of good luck if I understand him correcdy. Seeing as how my name is Yolanda I have no problem but his is Roland and that has only six letters. Now he is talking about writing to Victoria and having his first name changed to Rowland. I can't believe this. For 68 years he has spelled it Roland and now he wants to to change. We have four children, all grown and married, with their own families. Their names are Peter, James, Earl and Shiriey. When we have family get- togethers he doesn't speak to his sons but singles out Shirley and tells her how lucky she is. Naturally they all think he is around the bend so I'm not alone in this. Can you suggest any hobby I can steer him towards that is not going to make him look like a total idiot' Signed: A seven-letter word. Dear Seven-letter, I think your husband is spending too much time indoors and it is fogging his brain. Buy him a fishing rod, pack him a lunch and send him down the river. From the sound of things his hobbies don't keep his interest for long so keep your postage stamps hidden until he forgets about it. Good luck. Annabel, (oops, sorry about that) v Dear Annabelle, You can't fool me with your picture in the paper! I know who you really are. Your real name is Jemima Coughbottom and I used to sit behind you at Otter elementary when we were both in grade 5 back in the fabulous forties. I was the grubby wretch who pulled your pigtails and blew hody on your swan-like neck. And now when I see you on the thronged streets of downtown Aldergrove I long to tell you who I am and hope you remember me. Tell me, is there any hope? Signed: Bugsy Dear Bugsy, You have the wrong swan-like neck, Buster. When I was in grade 5 I. "was many thousands of miles away from Aldergrove - and for that, now, I am very grateful. If you did approach me on the streets of downtown Aldergrove I'm afraid I would have to let my English bulldog have its way with you. Not a pretty sight. FV United wins big over Metro CLOVERDALE - Fraser Valley United under 16 played Westminster Metro to a 4-1 win at Cloverdale Ball Park last Saturday. The Valley came out strong, with midfielder Craig Eaton scoring only 14 minutes into the game with a left footed shot from outside the 18 yard box. Westminster fought back and came up with a close scoring chance 10 minutes later, however, right winger Mike Haladin and midfielder Justin Student came with sliding tackles and forced the shot high over the cross-bar. Defenders Matt Borck and Jonathon Bryant worked hard together and cleared the ball upheld, keeping Westminster frustrated. Strong effort by winger Kevin Greentree put a well placed ball to the head of striker Steve Lewis who drove it into the back of the Westminster net at the 35 minute mark to put the Valley up by 2. At the start of the second half, the Valley came out charging, and 15 minutes later, striker Mark Gerard scored off a nice pass from winger Damien Jinks. Then, just two minutes later, midfielder Kevin Saunders and Mark Gerard combined for some lovely give and go passing that resulted with Gerard scoring his second goal of the game to put the Valley up by 4. Winger Derrick Turi played well on the left side, feeding balls to his strikers. However, Westminster did not give up and put the Valley under pressure. Defenders Ryan Bekar and Mike Greenway solidly held them at bay until Westminster managed to score on keeper Marc Abshagen with a rebound shot that gave him- no chance. Midfielder Shaun Patterson continued to scrap hard and helped to hold Westminster in their own end of the park for the balance of the game. The Valley's next game is two weeks away when they take on the North Shore Selects at Ambleside j8§5 Park in West Vancouver.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 ~1 Bruins bear the brunt on the Mission ice but drop to Langley ALDERGROVE - On Tuesday, October 20 the Aldergrove Valley Gravel Sales Atom 'A' Bruins were once again in Mission. Having played this team twice before the Bruins had an idea of what they were up against and knew this was not going to be an easy game. Just to prove the point Mission scored early in the game. The next eight minutes were filled with some great action and kept the fans on the edge of their seats. At 4:11 the Bruins tie up the game when Marc Windle, with a little help from Ben Henthorne and Josh Macknee tucks the puck into the net The second period was again a close one as both teams fought for possession of the puck until at 11:57 Paul gets his first goal of the night on a shot from a very strange angle. Assist to Dustin. Mission ties the game up four minutes later when they headman the puck up to the player just getting out of the penalty box to create a breakaway. At 6:48 Matt Roberts once again puts the Bruins ahead. At 5:44 Mission ties the game up once again. At 2:16 Paul Daley and Scott Robinson combine to put the Bruins ahead once more. A minute later Ben and Josh M. get together for a two goal lead on Mission. The third period was again full of nailbiting action as this was still anybody's game until 8:21 when Paul and Dustin, in a sharp passing play, get the puck to Scott who makes no mistake and the Bruins are ahead by three. Not ones to say die Mission gets one more goal on Aldergrove's goalie Josh Letkeman. B.J. Konschuh puts the icing on the cake at 3:49 putting the puck in on a wraparound. Final score Aldergrove 7, Mission 4. Good work boys! Two days later the Bruins were to suffer their first defeat of the tiering round losing 7 - 1 to Langley's triple A team. Langley started the scoring at 12:05 and then another at 10:34 but were not to get another past netminder Josh L., who was filling in for the ailing Davis Parley, for the remainder of the period. Langley was to score two more goals in the second before Ben and Paul both hammering away at the puck in front of the Langley net finally manage to knock the puck in. In the third period the Bruins took two penalties back to back to leave them two men short but managed to kill them both off with some great penalty killing plays. Langley did manage to score three more goals, ttoo in the last 45 seconds when the boys were so tired they could hardly skate anymore. This was one of the best games the boys have played although the score would not indicate that. All the boys played to their peak ability and the goaltender showing us some great moves indicates that this team is going to have a great year.

It was a thrilling close affair from the jumpball until the final buzzer. Trinity surprised the Thunder- birds early with four 3-pointers to take an early 13-3 lead that continued to a 24 - 11 margin in the first 8 minutes. UBC quickly closed that gap and the game became a seesaw battle with Trinity leading 47 - 42 at the final horn of the first half. Trinity held the lead until UBC tied the game at 6l - 6\ and it remained within 2 points until a decisive sprint UBC put them up 82 - 77. The Spartans fought back to within 1 point at 94 - 93 with 1 minute remaining but could not get a decisive shot and UBC held on for a 100 - 98 victory. Clay Gimmaka, TWU's league all star last year showed his determination for this year as he led all scorers with 31 points. Rookie Raymond Kwok added 18 points which included four 3- pointers. Also in double figures for TWU were Marty Peninga and Andrew Kowalenko each with 11. Derek Christianson, Brian Tait and Dave Williscroft each had 20 points to pace the UBC attack. Trinity Western coach Tim Teer was all smiles as he stated, "We are greatly encouraged with our team's effort tonight.'* Even in a losing cause TWU felt the game would build confidence for this year's new team (only 3 returnees). TWU will travel to SFU on October 27 for a 7:30 p.m. tip off. Their next home game is Friday, October 30 with Fellowship of Christian Athletes from Seatde. Tip-off at home is 8 p.m. Big bucks these days for park caretakers MURRAYVILLE - Not a 'Taj Mahal', councilors say. But nevertheless, an expensive change room, according to some of the aldermen. They voted four-to-three Monday night to go ahead and build the changeroom with an upstairs caretaker's apartment at the Walnut Grove community park. It will cost an estimated $300,000 to build, and the designing architect will be paid $30,000 for his services. Coun. Aubrey Searle said he was not sure "the numbers are realistic." Coun. Muriel Arnason asked why the architect's fee hadn't been set after a calling for tenders. And Coun. John Scholtens questioned if the building was necessary. "It used to be (in area parks) that we would spend $10,000 to $15,000 on a cement pad and then invite a caretaker to move in with his own mobile home," Scholtens said. "And I'm not at all sure we want to become landlords." His suggestion was dismissed by Coun. Steve Ferguson. "That is not the way to do things anymore," he said. And Searle agreed that the new park building would be "complementary" to the planned $2.3- million public recreation center for the northwest Langley area. "We must be careful of costs; we must be prudent," said Arnason. The new building will house two changerooms, storage space and washrooms on the ground floor, and a 1,000 square foot upstairs caretaker's residence. AAA-92 s \rTc-\ude ^^S*. "

OCTOBER 29. 1992 Tweens keep up pressure ALDERGROVE - On Saturday, Oct. 24, Aldergrove Tween B Ringette team took a trip to Delta to play their fourth exhibition game. The game started slow in the first period but Aldergrove would chip away at Delta for a 3 - 0 score. The second period, Aldergrove would keep up the pressure and were too much for Delta. ' Alyssa Hogan, Erin Miller and Shannon Witt played superb on defence. If Delta did manage to get one past the defense goalie Tina Harty would stop the shot. Maria Mach . and Kristine Hargrove worked very hard back and forth on defense and offense. The scoring punch was done by the wingers Erika Pearson, Shannon Waters,- Tara Swinden and Leslie Thomasson. This was the best total team effort. This Tween B team would skate to dominate a 9 - 0 victory. Congratulations to Tina for her first shut-out. TWU volleyball on top 3-0 LANGLEY - Trinity's first league game turned out to be an excellent start to the season. After a slow start in game 1, TWU came back to win 15-4. TWU played perfectly in game 2, winning 15-0. Game 3 saw TWU win by a 15-6 score, with a good number of players coming off the bench and playing really solid. Coach Heidebrecht had this to say about the game: "Serving proved to be our strongest part of the game tonight, so in turn it didn't give us a lot of opportunities to run our offence." In reference to Sonja Boschman who transferred to TWU from CBC this year, "She led our team tonight in kills, and should be one of the top hitters in the league, as she displayed some smart hitting tonight."

Wilczynski 417. of Tim Attwood's photos are available by calling CHILLIWACK - The UCFV Cascades men's soccer team suffered a humiliating 4 -1 defeat to nationally ranked University College of the Cariboo at the Chilliwack Fairgrounds Oval on Sunday. The UCFV side, fresh off an exciting and well played 1 - 1 tie with defending national champions Capilano College the previous week, carried much of the early play led by the solid work of strikers Steve Latham and Brett Jeffery. But the Cascades found themselves trailing 1 - 0 at the half when Cariboo scored on a header at the far post on their first and only real opportunity. Cariboo made it 2 - 0 at 55 minutes on a great shot off a set piece not well defended by the Cascades. Six minutes later, however, Raj Randhawa pulled UCFV back 2 - 1 when he played Latham's cross from the left into an empty Cariboo net following a collision between the Cariboo keeper and Cascade Jay Newcomb. .Randhawa's goal might have inspired the Cascades, but three minutes later they got caught completely flat-footed defending a corner and Cariboo punished them by-taking a 3 - 1 lead. The Cascades sagged and Cariboo scored its third goal in 16 G.K. United take tumble ALDERGROVE - On Sunday, Oct. 25, Gold Key United went down to defeat, beaten 2-0 by Langley Lazers at Noel Booth Park. Aldergrove Gold Key had the run of the play in the first half, creating numerous chances, but as in past games-lacked finesse around the goal-mouth. Sherman Foster and Angus Sewell had the best chances to score in the final half, Foster's header from close in going just wide of the post. Gold Key began the second half where they had ended the final half, with much of the play in the Lazers' half, but the promising plays were squandered on near misses and broken plays in or near the Langley goal-mouth. Half-way through the second half Langley got one of their few chances and scored on a well taken shot by a Langley player from a position out on the right side of the eighteen yard box. With fifteen minutes to go and Aldergrove pressing I for an equalizer, pushing players forward, they got caught on a counter attack with not enough defenders back, allowing Langley to score the clincher. Final score 2-0.

The second question asked whether the right of 'initiative' should be introduced in the province. That is, should voters be given the right, by legislation, to propose questions that the Government of British Columbia must submit to voters by referendum? The Select Standing Committee on Parliamentary Reform; Ethical Conduct, Standing Orders and Private Bills has been authorized by the House to examine and inquire into all matters and issues concerning these two referenda questions and to make appropriate recommendations to the Legislative Assembly. £i'!q This all-party Legislative Committee invites written submissions on all matters and issues relating to the two referenda questions including the introduction of recall and initiative legislation in British Columbia.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 Short briefs appreciated Development protested MURRAYVILLE - "Good deal," said Mayor John Beales. A recommendation from the Fort Langley museum suggested that in the future reports to council from the curator be abbreviated to reduce the amount of staff time needed to compile them. As for the national museum, Coun. Steve Ferguson introduced a notice of motion that letters be sent to the federal and provincial governments asking that the tourist facility be opened at least six days a week. Currently, the fort is closed to the public Fridays and Saturdays, he said. MURRAYVILLE - "It is very, very inappropriate," said Coun. Muriel Arnason. Other council members did not go that far, but they did agree that "density is a major concern with neighbors" of a ^proposed townhouse development in the Willoughby area. Coun. Steve Ferguson tried to have the proposal sent back for a second public hearing in the vicinity of 200 Street and Willoughby Way, but other councilors would not hear of this. Neighbors have complained about the approval for the small strata-title townhouse development, and as a result of the complaints the builders have reduced the height of some of the buildings from two-and-a- half to two stories. Stop, then go fast? Free at House of Treasures MURRAYVILLE - After having received a letter from Fort Langley resident Veronica Cowie, councilors here have decided to defer for one week decision on whether or not to go ahead with a property exchange bylaw providing for the widening of 88 ' Avenue. After the one-week delay council will "proceed posthaste," according to Coun. Aubrey Searle. Cowie, a 50-year-resident of the area, has asked council to consider a different deal from that proposed by the township's planning department. Yes to Red Cross, no to other MURRAYVILLE - Councilors have said yes to the Canadian Red Cross but no to the Langley chamber of commerce. Blood donor clinics will be held at the Brookswood civic center on June 29-30, September 21-22 and December 29-30 next year, and it won't cost the Red Cross anything to rent the facility. The local chamber, however, was not so lucky. They had applied for a waiving orthe' rent for their planned 1993 Spring Fair and Exhibition. Councilors indicated they might reconsider the request during the corning week. ALDERGROVE - Freebies are in the offing at House of Treasures Thrift Shop. The volunteer-run, non-profit thrift store has two free hair dryers along with some • shoes and clothing for those who need it. They also need a small space heater with a fan for the store.

This coming week they are having a $3 bagful! sale on Monday, and Tuesday from 2 to 5:30 p.m., there's a "what's your offer?" sale, where it's your turn to set the price.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 13 New valley home for disabled Biair Wilson has a youths becomes a reality ABBOTSFORD - With its motifs of Lego and Sesame Street, the newly opened Fraser Valley Child Development Centre is a bright and cheery place for disabled children. Located at 34081 Cyril Street, the centre serves youths from Langley to Boston Bar with the best facilities and staff for a variety of problems. The face most associated with Timmy's Telethon, Red Robinson was on hand to give greetings and best wishes from the B.C. Lions Society for Children with Disabilities, the centre's main sponsor. Quoting the old saw about necessity being the mother of invention, Robinson said the "vision" shown by all involved with the new facility was all the more commendable. The $4.3-million facility was designed by architects R.B. MacDonell of Vernon, and general contractor was Mierau Construction of Abbotsford. Representatives of both firms commented on the "pleasure and fun" being involved with the project, now the home of the Upper Fraser Valley Neurological Society. Funding was also provided with a provincial grant of $731,666. Representing the board of directors, ' Lorna Herrington thanked the support of the B.C. Lions in "treating special needs children... who needed larger facilities." She said the board became independent of the Variety Treatment Centre a couple years ago, to put together, "what's necessary to help children realize their greatest potential," and she said it was, "not just a celebration of the reality of a dream but the culmination of many hours, great thought and inspiration, patience and wisdom of many people." Aldergrove resident Laura Hope is one of the familiar faces at the new centre. The former owner of Aldergrove's Smurf City Daycare, Hope now works at the centre's pre-school, where she helps look after 16 children, four of whom have disabilities. While she's not used to the luxury of four teachers per room, she said it's, "great because there's lots of individual attention." The distinctive look of the new Child Development Centre in Abbotsford. It was officially opened last week by the Upper Fraser Valley Neurological Society and representatives of the B:C. Lions Society for Children with Disabilities. -Kurt Langmann photo Red Robinson and members of Lions clubs chat at the official opening of the Child Development Centre on Cyril Street. -Kurt Langmann photo There will also be a daycare opened in the building in the near future. Upstairs is where the special treatment services are offered such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy and the gymnasium. Hope said that the area served is very large and services are for those up to 17 years of age. "This is real quality," commented Hope. Therapy and treatment are available to a current caseload of 350 children. There is a waiting list of another 200 in the valley. For information on the centre call 852-2686.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 YOUR VOICE II Pop go the stars By LARA BRODIE and LOIS BRONX Look out for the ghosts and goblins How much influence do you feel that pop stars, such as Madonna and Sinead O'Connor, have on our society, specifically the youth? Mom Darcie Chittick with daughter Jodie: Quite a bit They go against the grain, they're non-conformist and project a negative image. As long as they are who they are and making their own money and taking to to the bank, that's ok, but it's not ok for everyone else to try to be who they are. Opal Thomas: Too much. I don't think it's lady-like to behave how Madonna does. I just don't like to see the kids being so wild over any of these rock stars, although, way back when I was young they did it, too, they swooned over Frank Sinatra. Warren Powers: Not a lot, it's up to the people themselves who influence them, not the pop stars. The pop stars just help them decide who they want to be like. Pat Connon: I feel that singers and actors and people these days influence kids by what they wear and how they act, the things they do in their lives. Gerry Gordichuk: I think the influence is quite heavy. All these kids think, oh ya right! Now I can be rich, I can become a drug addict and be real famous, have everyone stare at me!

Home oxygen contract awarded VANCOUVER - Effective November 1, Medigas Inc. has been awarded a three-year contract with the B.C. Ministry of Health as the ' province-wide approved vendor to their Home Oxygen. Program. Medigas is the only vendor to provide home oxygen services to new Ministry of Health patients province-wide. The only exceptions to this are Victoria's Capital Regional District, and the Sunshine Coast where Medigas will continue to serve existing patients, but will not be able to accept new patient referrals. Other vendors were awarded preferred or approved status in" some regions. This contract award reestablished vendor competition in British Columbia, after a- year of exclusive contracts with other vendors. The Ministry of Health has realized savings estimated between $1- to $3-million through their contract process. The Home Oxygen Program serves almost 4,000 patients province-wide, fully funded by the Ministry of Health. The transformation begins VANCOUVER - The transformation of the old Expo site from unused real estate to a vibrant urban community begins Oct 30, with the opening of the sales pavilion for International Village. Over a thousand guests from real estate, government and the media have been invited to attend the opening ceremonies. The 150,000 square metre International Village development will feature residential, commercial, retail, and recreational areas interwoven in a modern mixed-use design created to foster exceptional livability. It is situated between Pacific Boulevard North and Pender Street, and is bordered by Chinatown to the east and Beatty Street to the west.

Other amenities in International Village are an elementary school, day care centre, tennis courts, playing fields and other | community- oriented facilities. The focal point of the development will be the Keefer Steps. This open-air plaza, reminiscent of European cities, will create a dramatic entry to International Village.

B.C. housing starts |f rebound VANCOUVER - Housing construction in B.C. rebounded in the third quarter according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of starts was 44,000 units compared to 35,000 units saar in the second quarter 1992. "Multiples starts accounted for most of the gain during the quarter," said Helmut Pastrick, regional economist. "Starts activity will likely ease in the fourth quarter due to tighter financing requirements for multiples." Nationally, starts edged higher to 176,000 units saar from 165,000 in the second quarter. Quebec was the only region to.decline. So far this year, starts in B.C. were up 35 percent over the same period last year.

"One of the cultural characteristics of West Coast society is that we hold up the ideal of eternal youth - we're very much a death-denying society," he said. Bailey believes this is one of the reasons for the growing popularity of rituals which dp not include the body of the departed being present. Another growing trend on the West Coast is to not have any kind of service to mark the loss of a loved one, he says. The Nov. 14 conference is sponsored by the Hospice Unit of the Anglican Diocese of New Westminster. Registration is $40.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 m A VIEW FROM HOSPITAL HILL Plans for future clinical programs A key goal outlined in the hospital's new Strategic Plan was the development of a Clinical Programs Plan. The purpose of this plan is to ensure that Langley Memorial Hospital, in cooperation with its community partners, provides high quality programs of proven benefit to residents of its catchment area who need them - responsively, efficiently and affordably. A Special Steering Committee of the Medical Advisory Committee of the hospital was formed to oversee the Process. The plan was based on a workshop involving 15 of the 17 member Medical Advisory Committee and 12 members of the general medical staff. The following are the two key program objectives: Increase the percentage of acute care hospital patient days used by residents of the Langley Hospital District from under 60 percent to at least 80 percent by 1995/96. Increase the number of Surgical Day Care cases per year by 30 percent by the end of February, 1993. In choosing which specific clinical programs will be given emphasis in the year ahead - two important factors were considered. The first was the present government's desire to provide ■ services as "close to home" as possible in keeping with the thrust of the Royal Commission report on health care and costs. Especially given that future funding formulas will be tied where appropriate to the proportion of local residents served in their local areas and not simply on population or population growth alone. The second factor is the awareness that all clinical services planning has to be carried out in the context of planning for the South Fraser Valley region to avoid duplication of services. Consequently, the Clinical Services Plan will be subjected to ongoing review and may be modified in light of future decisions at the regional level. The following are highlights of the Specific Clinical Programs that are being planned for 1993 to 1996. Extended Care Services - Open a new 100-bed extended care unit in the. spring of 1993 bringing the total number of extended care beds up to 250. Development of a Computerized Tomography (Cat Scan) Service shared with Peace Arch District Hospital. Initiate Ophthalmic Laser Service for cataract Surgery. Increase the number, of Prosthetic joints being carried out. Expand Urology Service. Development of a Histopa- thology Laboratory. Expanded Maternity Services - construction of a new labour delivery suite and 25 maternity beds to be completed in 1994. Increased liaison and cross- credentialling with B.C. Children's Hospital and Surrey Memorial Hospital to enhance the level of Paediatric Services. Develop a Geriatric Assessment Centre and community partnerships to facilitate looking after the elderly at home. Promote the involvement of Family Practitioners in Obstetrics and Emergency Medicine. Expanded Diagnostic Services including echocardiography and angiography. Increase the number of psychiatric inpatient beds to 22 and develop services for the geriatric population and those with eating disorders. Expanded Internal Medicine Services including enhanced Cardiology Services, nephrology and respkology. A number of initiatives were - identified under Surgical Services including the development of a Vascular Service and Thoracic Service, together with appropriate support services; development of a Retinal Surgical Service as an expansion of the Laser Program; increase the amount of non- neurological trauma dealt with by Langley Memorial Hospital, expand Plastic Surgery Service; and expand orthopedic service by further sub-specialization. Develop a full range of Ambulatory Care Services to include: Chemotherapy, IV .Therapy, Lipid Clinic, Ortho Clinics, Pain Clinics, Pre-Admission Clinics, Substance Abuse, Sports Medicine, Paediatric Clinics in Obesity, Asthma, Diabetes and Developmental Assessment. Develop outpatient services in Cardiac Rehabilitation and Family Counselling. Earl's Restaurant in Langley is offering pumpkins in exchange for a donation to the Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation.

There has only been one minor accident at the corner within the past year, he said. Township planners say the placing of the median is necessary because of increased traffic on 88 Avenue. Councilors referred the matter back to staff for further consideration this week. Lennon's Rolls back to Jimmy VICTORIA - The provincial government will only be keeping about 60 of the 180 vehicles from the former Transportation Museum, because of their historical significance to B.C. The other 120 will either be sold or returned to the donors, including the John Lennon Rolls Royce donated by Jim Pattison, said the tourism ministry. The museum was closed in the summer because of budget constraints. There has been no announcement of the plans for the vehicles the province wishes to keep.

OCTOBER 29. 1992 23 Shooting investigated LANGLEY - RCMP are investigating a drive-by shooting of a Brookswood home early Sunday morning. A couple who were watching television shortly after midnight heard the gunshots, but thought it was just fireworks until their stereo quit and they discovered it had a bullet in it. Police said some ten bullets were fired into the 42 Avenue home, but none caused injury to the middle-aged couple living there. Two other men who live in the same home were not there at the time, and police said they will be questioning them because police believe there was a motive of some sort behind the shooting. Police have not released the names of any of the four people Kid's tickets now on sale ABBOTSFORD - Individual tickets are now available for any concert in the Abbotsford- Matsqui Arts Council Kid's Concert Series.

New Demos to convene BURNABY - New Democrats from across British Columbia will gather at the Hotel Vancouver, November 6 to 8, for the B.C. New Democratic party's provincial convention, party president Ian Aikenhead said. The convention, the party's first since forming government in November of 1991, will include debate and adoption of party policy, and keynote addresses from Premier Harcourt, and federal New Democratic party leader Audrey McLaughlin. Public pressure f of highways RICHMOND - Current signs that public pressure for a reversal of the B.C. government's severe slashing of investment in better roads is growing in many regions of the province. This reflects British Columbians' basic belief that spending to build and maintain good highways is important. That at least is the view of the British Columbia Road Builders and Heavy Construction Association, which recently brought to public attention the fact that the present provincial government is spending only $83.4- million this year in actual capital construction of roads throughout the province. Ivan Hanchard, asociation president, said research conducted for the road builders by Decima Research, shows that more than 70% of British Columbians rate' spending on roads and bridges as "important" or very important". "It comes as no surprise to us that individuals, municipal councils and community organizations are all expressing concern about the current low priority the provincial government has given so far to investment in urgently-needed major expansion and improvement to the province's road and bridge network. This is especially so among people who live outside the metropolitan Vancouver area, where good roads are so important to life styles and economic success," said Hanchard. Group O needed VANCOUVER - Is your bood type Group 0 positive or negative? If so the Canadian Red Oxoss Society's Blood Program is in urgent need for you to attend a blood donor clinic today. According to Len Lifchus, director of blood donor recruitment for the Canadian Red Cross Society here in British Columbia; "The blood inventory, in particular group 0, has dropped by more than 2,200 donations over the past few weeks. If the supply of group 0 positive and negative donors is not increased it will be necessary to cancel surgery for patients requiring group 0 positive or negative blood." This appeal, however, does not negate the need for all blood types. S-ij&i Anyone in good health, between the ages of 17 and 59 (first time donors) or 71 for regular donors are eligible to give. Donors are now required to produce identification, driver's licence is best. According to Lifchus; "In order to make up the 1,500 donations of blood needed to correct the situation all blood donor clinics over the next two weeks will need large turn outs. This may result in line ups and we ask our donors for their patience and understanding during this critical period." For information on clinic times and locations call 877-7810 between the hours of 9 a.m. to9pm. Hanchard said the government's decision to cut highways spending has left more than half of the 9,000 employees of B.C. road builders without jobs. "This comes at a time when the research shows unemployment and the economy at the top of the list of concerns on the minds of British Columbians." The research in June showed unemployment was the No. 1 concern, with the economy No. 3 behind the environment In the provincial budget last March, Finance Minister Glen Gark slashed funding for capital works to improve highways to $181.4 million - less than half what it was a year earlier. But figures obtained from the transportation and Highways Ministry show that more than half of that sum is going to purposes other than road building. What is actually going into road-building contracts represents far less that the $240 million the government expects to collect in motor vehicle licence and permit fees in the current fiscal year. The research also showed significant public support - more than 60% - for use of tolls to help pay for major new roads and bridges where there is an alternative route for those not wishing to pay the toll. Tradex braces for second busy year MATSQUI - As summer comes to an end in the Fraser Valley, a hew season is upon us; the fall consumer show season. Now, with one year under their belt, the folks at Tradex - the Fraser Valley Trade & Exhibition Centre are taking a brief look back at where theyve come from - and a look ahead to the future of the facility and the growing show industry east of the Port Mann Bridge. "We've been pleasantly surprised," says Tradex Manager Tim Leclak. "The support from the community, municipal governments, and the industry has been fantastic. In our first full year, we've been ahead of projections." Tradex, which opened during Airshow Canada in July, 1991, has hosted events ranging from the Snowbkd RV. Show, Travel & Lifestyles 91, and the B.C. Home Based Business Show, to the '92 Matsqui Indoor Soccer Tournament, the Lower Mainland Dog Fancier's Show, the Fraser Valley Boat & Sportsmen's Show, and the Home Improvement Trade Show. Matsqui mayor Dave Kandal says, "We're very happy to have Tradex in our community. The range of activities, consumer shows, and special events we've had over the past year would not have been in our area if it 'wasn't for Tradex. This is our baby and we want to see it succeed." Kandal hopes to see the addition of new hotels and motels in the area to help accommodate exhibitors and attendees coming to Tradex events. "The recession has affected plans for new hotels and motels in the Valley, but with the success of Tradex, people are encouraged to look at building again." Tradex has provided a venue for new, profitable shows to target the communities of the Fraser Valley. To date, the most successful consumer show at Tradex has been the Eraser Valley Boat & Sportsmen's Show, which drew 15,000 attendees over four days last March Plans for 1993's event are already well ahead of. schedule. Bruce Guerin, co-organizer of the show, explains, "Exhibitors - from manufacturers to retailers, were overwhelmed with the response. Virtually everyone was pleased with the volume of business done on the floor and attendees from all over the area were pleased to have a show specially tailored to their, community. We're akeady 75 per cent sold for our next event, March 4 - 7, 1993. In todays trade and consumer show industry, that's amazing." Successful events are not the only good business news to come out of Tradex. This year, Great Events - a new, Abbots- ford-based company, has been formed to meet the increasing needs of Tradex show organizers. "Tradex offered us an opportunity that didn't exist before," explains Great Events president Diana Young, whose first two Tradex successes include the '91 Travel & Lifestyles Show and the Wedding & Grad Showcase. Local businesses and organizations have been coming to Diana and' Great Events to help stage thek events, from concept to completion, at Tradex. "We took the initiative and formed Great Events, a division of Ambassador Travel, to help local entrepreneurs take advantage of the tremendous market we have here in the Fraser Valley and use Tradex as the place to meet them." "At Tradex, we have the largest facility of its kind in Western Canada," explains Tim Leclak. "And with the fastest growing communities in the nation as our local market, we're quickly becoming one of the most sought after venues in the business." Upcoming events at Tradex include the General Motors product "launch, Oct 7 - 14, the Snowbkd RV. Show & Sale, Oct. 16 - 18, the Lower Mainland Dog Fanciers Show, Oct 23 - 25, Travel & Lifestyles '92, Nov. 13 - 15, a craft show, Nov. 26-29, and the First Heritage Savings Staff Christmas Banquet, Dec. 12.
