This issue goes back to Matsqui Council, which had already made legal moves to shut down the company, citing improper land use for the zoning, and repeated noise bylaw violations. It was noted by staff that the business did relocate off Fraser Highway for a short time, but the road was not able to handle the big trucks, so they moved back. Mayor George Ferguson said that the case is going to court, but the original lawyer became ill and is no longer practising, ancl the new lawyer needs time to set things up. The date is set for February 1996. Karl Strobl, speaking on behalf of the residents, said that living near the noise of buzz saws, planers, and trucks emptying loads into metal bins at 3 am has become unbearable and that . something should be done to stop it all now. Other residents also stood up and voioosi"thcir .cancerns. Two women mentioned that the owner of the company telephoned them, swore at them and threatened them, if they keep complaining to council. They said he told them he will sue them for the loss of business and the cost of putting 60 people out of work. Strobl, who confirmed that the owner had been rude to him, asked council how the business could be operating illegally for such a long time as to now be employing 60 people. He also said that when they call, police regarding the noise they feel harassed and the police never respond, to the complaints. Mr. Bob Rick, who has lived at the site across from Canadian Pallet for 23 years, stood up and told the council that B.C. Hydro was out inspecting power poles and told him the pole next to his place was in good condition and would not need repairs for at least 10 years. The next day, however, there was a new pole with three transformers supplying power to the company. "Does council allow B.C. Hydro to connect power to companies that are operating illegally?" he asked. Staff responded that B.C. Hydro does not communicate with municipalities about the connection of power. Ferguson stressed to the delegation that they must work within the law to bring this to a successful conclusion, even though the owner seems to be acting above the law. Council passed several motions to try to put a stop to the Please see page A... CULTURAL CENTRE PROMISED Report to spell out actual costs? By KURT LANGMANN LANGLEY - Will taxpayers here prefer the "Two or Three Million Dollar Woman" starring township councillor Heather McMullan, or would they rather peek behind door number two for a shot at "$36-Million Jeopardy" with host, councillor Muriel Arnason? Both of these popular series have been pilots on the Rogers community channel's ongoing coverage of council meetings, but as the Cultural Centre Task Force finally is ready to take the issue out of the "Twilight Zone" and put it before the public, councillors want to ensure that the Rogers cameras are on hand for the mid-September unveiling of the report.

Shake hands with China LANGLEY - A delegation of dignitaries from mainland China formally signed a cooperation agreement with the township at Monday's council meeting. The declaration, which was initiated by mayor John Scholtens during a recent business trip to the district of Jing Hai, will promote exchanges between the two communities regarding business, culture, science, and particularly, agriculture. One of the delegates, Dr. Lee translated for the group which included senior local government politicians for the district. Lee said their tours of this area showed "remarkable similarities" between Langley township and Jing Hai district, as both are rural suburbs near major cities, Vancouver and Tjianjin, respectively. Lee, translating for vice-mayor Loo, said the delegation has agreed to purchase farmland in the township "to try to grow Chinese vegetables for the people here, and to establish a liaison office to encourage people to do business with China." Loo also praised "beautiful Canada with its rich resources and fine hospitality^ of Langley." The delegates presented councillors with T-shirts designed by one of their artists, showing two hands shaking and the names of the two districts, while Scholtens returned the gesture by handing out township ballpoint pens. Tlie eight-person Jing Hai delegation arrived on the weekend and has already met with other politicians and bureaucrats from the GVRD as well as Chamber of Commerce president Howard Reisch and other business people here. . FREE CLASSIFIEDS FOR STAR SUBSCRIBERS — INFORMATION INSIDE ted themselves to building a centre for the arts in some form, but the specifics have been exceedingly vague, causing "Outer Limits" projections from both sides. Promises have been given to arts organizations that the design would include tutorial and practice space for the Langley Community Music School to start with, and possibly a recital hall. This recital hall could come in various sizes and configurations, wilh other possible uses as township council chambers for public meetings, and/or as a theatre and concert hall seating several hundreds or more. Future grand plans would incorporate a new municipal hall, and since the likely location is in the now-residential area of Murrayville hill, there could be space provided for private enterprise to rent for use as restaurants and boutiques. The nebulous nature of the design possibilities is the real reason for tlie wide disparity between cost estimates suggested by McMullan and Arnason. McMullan and other proponents of the cultural centre base their figures of $2-million or so on the first stage of new LCMS facilities, while Arnason takes in the big picture of the entire project, which she says could total well over $30-million. Whether or not the task force's recommendations will include actual dollar amounts is anyone's guess, but at their Aug. 28 meeting, councillors agreed that the report warranted a request to Rogers, as well as the reporters from community newspapers who are always there, to be present for the report and provide Please see page 4... The Aldergrove STAR Illegitimus non carborundum VOL.37 NO.35 WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1995 40 CENTS Established 1957 3089-272nd Street Fax:856-5212 Phone:856-8303 Leg hold trap used illegally By MONIQUE GALAZKA ALDERGROVE - Leg hold traps are legal devices, says RalptT Kernz, Provincial Conservation Officer, but only if they are propr erly set and meet modern standards. One standard is that it must be anchored down, so the animal is unable to escape with the trap. However, an Aldergrove resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, says that someone in the area is obviously not setting traps properly, since a local stray cat ended up in his garage with a trap still attached to its leg. "I had to shoot the cat because it was so far gone," he said. "The skin on its leg had rotted away, and it was close to starvation." Kernz said that anyone wanting to use a leg hold trap to catch nuisance animals on their own land, needs a licence from the Ministry of Environment, and there is a whole raft of rules and regulations regarding their use. Anyone caught setting traps improperly could be charged under the Wildlife Act. A first time offence for anyone caught illegally or improperly trapping animals is a $5,000 fine and/or six months in jail. "A leg hold trap is a device to set to capture an animal hy the leg," he said. "It must be a modern one with a space of at least five millimetres or rubber padding between the bars, and it has. to be anchored to hold the animal in place." The resident who found the cat however, says that there is no way this trap could have been anchored. "This is not responsible," he said. "I would like to say to whoever did this, 'Don't do it any more. It is morally wrong and inhumane. If you are going to set up a trap, anchor it, check it, and retrieve what you catch'." Langley Animal Control Officer Brian Nelson said that a person improperly setting leg hold traps could be prosecuted for cruelty lo animals, and anyone who witnesses someone illegally selling traps should notify the police or the SPCA. Armed robber on the loose ABBOTSFORD - Police are asking for public assistance in identifying the man who robbed the Fraser Highway Super Save Gas Station at gun point at 9 p.m, Friday, August 18. The lone man entered lhe store, produced a handgun and demanded cash from the clerk. After obtaining some money he fled east on Fraser Highway in a small, grey vehicle. He is described as between 40 and 50 years old with short, greying hair, approximately 5'9" tall with a slim build, and may have been wearing glasses. This suspect is also believed to be responsible for other, similar robberies in the Fraser Valley area.

An energetic and friendly man in his 65th year, Shillinglaw succumbed to post- operation complications in Royal Columbian Hospital on Friday, Aug. 25. His son, Ray told The Star that Maynard had a successful colon operation a month earlier, but two weeks later a stubborn infection set in and he was unable to summon the strength to batde it. Maynard was taken to Langley Memorial Hospital, then transferred to RCH, where medical staff did their uUnost to overcome the coin- plications. "We were all there, Mom (Eileen) and my sister (Brenda) holding his hands," said a distraught Raymond, Monday. "He wasn't in pain and passed away peacefully." The family was always very close. Maynard and Ray built up the R&M Tire business together over the past couple of decades, and while Ray bought ownership of the business a couple years ago when Maynard decided to retire, Maynard still enjoyed coming into the office for the social aspect. Maynard also considered Uie used vehicle aspect of tlie tire store a way to keep his hands and mind busy widiout the time commitment that the tire store demanded. Maynard and Ray frequently holidayed together, as both men relished sport fishing, both locally and in exotic spots in Asia and Maynard Shillinglaw Central America. Photographic memories of Uiese trips adorn the wallsrof the store. Maynard always believed in contributing to his community, whether it be sponsoring activities such as amateur sports, leading Boy Scout troops, or fundraising for the Salvation Army. His unstinting efforts for the Sally Ann's Red Shield Appeal made him one of the biggest fundraisers for their charitable work in the central Fraser Valley. Motorists, including heavy truck drivers, also relied on him to find Uie best deals on quality tires, backed wi th a smile Uiat guaranteed your satisfaction.

Liberal MLA and deputy leader Fred Gingell expressed outrage at the shooting of two police officers at the illegal encampment at Gustafsen Lake on Aug. 27. "There must be one law in British Columbia and that one law must be enforced equally," said Gingell. "This kind of lawlessness by a group of common thugs has to be dealt with severely and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law." Gingell said the poor performance of the NDP government during treaty negotiations has sent the wrong message. "Blockades in other parts of the province have been successful at getting the province to make concessions or lo resume negotiations. It would seem the natives at Gustafsen Lake believe that Uiis is the oue way to arrive at a favorable scttie- ment. "A B.C. Liberal government will not allow the province to be held hostage by blockades, and we will not negotiate with any group who are involved in illeffaF activities," however, "The B.C. Liberals will support any effort made by police to resolve this situation peacefully," said Gingell. Gingell said that acts of violence harm both sides in treaty negotiations across the province by creating fear and suspicion. "It is unfortunate that the efforts of native leaders to settle claims across the province and to negotiate in good faith have been tarnished by these criminal acts."

Darlene Poitras had written regarding concerns about the huge barns being built at 232 Street and 35 Avenue. Councillors agreed that any environmental concerns are regulated by such agencies as die Ministry of Environment and GVRD, and as coun. Muriel Arnason pointed out, "We can't interfere when farms are placed where they're designated to be." She added Uiat new provincial legislation seeks to provide Uie "right to farm" when urban-rural conflicts arise in such areas. , Coun. Steve Ferguson said Uie $1. l-million price tag on the fanning venture makes it a major investment, but "it's not a mushroom composting operation like those to the west" which have caused fouled air for its neighbours. The operators have acquired all required permits for operation, and the MOE and GVRD are responsible for monitoring and prosecuting any pollution infractions. mmm ^ 0 mtOVGH SAID Talk to Ken!

AUGUST 30,1995 Cultural centre come out from From front coverage to the widest group of taxpayers. Councillors were as hc'clgy as ever on the matter, Monday, although coun. Mel Kositsky requested (hat a previous meeting's minutes he amended to show that, he voted along wilh Arnason in favour of a referendum on a cultural centre project. Two previous referenda, held in the '80s, failed to win majority public support for such a project. Councillors briefly discussed a four-page Idler from LCMS president Tom sScottiiicki, in which he outlined (lie history and financial status of die non-profit group. I Ie said Uiat, "While (he school docs not pay rent or property taxes (on its present site in Langley city), it has not been and docs not intend to be a financial burden to the community." However, he said the school has outgrown the aging location, has a lengthy waiting list, and while it has a "$100,000 building fund... the full cost of a new facility is clearly beyond its resources." Scoltnicki said the 25 year old school "has always operated wilh the objective of self-sufficiency" and has accumulated a general fund surplus of $32,000 "as a buffer against fluctuations in our annual budget of $630,000... LCMS generates over 85% of its revenue from ils operations. Less than 5% of ils revenues comes from provincial and municipal grants. Municipal support has been limited to a small grant-in- aid for building maintenance" on (lie building which the city provides rent- and tax-free. plans soon to under wraps Coun. Steve Ferguson, who represents the township government on the citizens' task force, said they would be holding their final meeting this Thursday evening to "ratify the task force recommendations which go to council on Sept 18." Coun. Trudi Campen commented on the aspect of government-funded "competition with free enterprise," pointing out the LCMS's "status is non-profit," and to their reliance on numerous volunteers to fulfil the quality music education programs. However, after the meeting she was unable to tell Tlie Star whether the school Would pay a reasonable rent for use of the facilities proposed by the township. LCMS charges students more for its group class lessons than most other music instructors charge for one-on-one tutorials, yet the established but smaller music and dance schools in Langley are able to make rent or mortgage payments for their facilities as well as pay property taxes and license fees. Campen conceded that there is a disparity in that aspect, especially since, as she said, the township is "moving toward more user fees. Perhaps wc can get some rent from the music school." The costs and other issues may become clearer after the task force recommendations are released in a couple week's time.-In any event, the final decision on what form the project takes will be made by (lie mayor and six councillors, presumably at a public meeting, and The Star will provide "Hard Copy" of (he full details. Stay timed... "Not fair" says company boss of efforts to close business From front... company's operations until the court reaches a decision. Tlie decision of council was lo seek legal advice about getting an injunction to stop the company's operations before the court case. They also voted to correspond with B.C. 1 Iydro about cutting off the power, and with tlie Workers Compensation Board regarding workers working in an uninspected building. "I'm sure Uiat Worker's Compensation would be very interested in looking into this situation," said Councillor Wendy Lee. Council also voted to ticket the company $100 a day for noise bylaws infractions. Tom Higgins, Manager of Inspection Services for the city, said it might be difficult to get on to the property lo deliver the tickets and a police escort may be needed. Councillors agreed. Joe Sangha, the owner of Canadian Pallets Inc., denied threatening the neighbours and said his company is made up of reasonable people, trying to do the best they can and pay their taxes. The company has spent a lot of money upgrading machinery to keep the noise down and control the sawdust problem. "No matter how hard we try, we still can't please everyone," he said. "But we are trying to do our best." He said this situation goes back to Matsqui Council which was very difficult to deal with. In an attempt to move his company and make it conform to land use regulations, he bought several other pieces of land, including one zoned industrial but not for this type of industry. There are three solutions he said. One is to relocate the company to one of the other properties, which would require rezoning. "I'm sure, if they (council) really wanted to, they could rezone the property," he said, "But the process has been going on for over two years and nothing has been done." Another solution is to shut the company down, which Sangha says is not a good option. He is concerned about all the people that would be out of work if the company closed. The third option is to rezone the property, and the rest of Fraser Highway including the company up the road, as industrial. "I don't see any farms around here, and I don't see anyone making money at farming. This is poor land," he said. "The other company makes just as much noise as we do, maybe even more, and no one is bothering them. "I just want everybody to be happy and to reach a peaceful solution, but because of all this mess, we have to turn away a lot of business, which doesn't make us happy. "Some of tlie people, who are complaining about the noise, bought their property several years after our business had. already been in operation. Now they complain about their property values? It is not fair, and I only want what's fair." Ancient history visits us By KURT LANGMANN There's a lot to see and do at this year's PNE, as organizers continually seek out new and novel entertainments. The Shaolin Kung-fu shows were an awesome display of the ancient Chinese art- form, and another first is the touring exhibit of Canadian and Chinese dinosaur fossils, The Dinosaur Project on display inside the Forum Building. The show opened before the fair did but closes on the final day of the PNE, Sept. 4, and only costs a few dollars extra for fairgoers to take it in. Many, such as myself, have never had the opportunity to visit the Drumheller, Alberta ("Badlands") site where many of these fossilized bones were excavated, making this truly a once in a lifetime experience. I spent three hours inside the exhibit, Friday, and could easily go back for more. There's over 40 actual fossils, many of them complete, eleven of them so recendy found that they've never before been displayed, along with standing cast models, numerous videotaped and live oral presentations and explanations of the facts and theories surrounding Uiese mysterious creatures. Upon entry, you arc greeted by a huge styrofoam wall containing the imposing "Black Beauty" - a Tyranosaurus Rex's complete skeleton, stained black by eons of manganese oxide leaching into the fossil in the Badlands. Inside, there's a suspended casting of a huge Brontosaurus found in China's Gobi Desert, which barely fits inside the Forum. There's also examples of the fossils discovered in Canada's far north, on an island near the ArcUc Circle - all of these unlikely seeming locations tell us Uiat at some point in the Earth's distant past Uie climate was entirely different from what we're used to. Many long-established and new theories about dinosaurs are presented for your consideration: Was a comet smashing into the Earth the environmental catastrophe which caused the sudden demise of the dinosaurs? Or did some dinosaurs evolve over the past 100-million years or so into what we now call birds? Were they all cold-blooded reptiles or warm-blooded variations on mammals? What colours were their skins or hairs or feathers? Were some species herding creatures? Did mothers watch over their nests of eggs and bring food to the new hatchlings? We may never know the answers to all the questions, but there's fascinating food for Uiought, and a good look at a different world, at the Dinosaur Project Old bones may seem boring to some people, but think about the odds: very few bones are atxiden- tally buried in such a situation that they would be preserved for millions of years, fossilized into stone. The vast majority eventually turned into dust, not fossils. And then, how likely is it that someone would accidentally unearth them and recognize them for what they are? The odds are so incredible Uiat it's no wonder that so few complete dinosaur speci- mens have been found. The . opportunity to see them for yourself in Vancouver is almost as rare; don't miss it. Meditation adds up to good idea ByAU_£TULLY PRINCE RUPERT - On Saturday afternoon I sat in the public library staring at a computer screen and playing one of my favorite games. It's a form of intellectual Russian roulette, really. I go into the library deliberately without considering what I'm going to explore. I sit in front of a computer console and Uiink of two subjects: the first two that come to mind. Well, meditation and mathematics came to mind Saturday. Starting with meditation, I made a discovery that piqued my curiosity. According to the library's excellent computerized infomiation service, all of the books on meditation except one were in use. Instinctively I knew I was on to something. Meditation must be a subject that interests at least some people in Prince Rupert, and probably everywhere else. . So I got the call number of the one book on meditation still on the shelves and when I left the library, I was carrying with me "Beyond the Relaxation Response" by Herbert Benson, an American M.D. I took out a book on math tricks and shortcuts, too. You see, I always believe my double-barrelled subject inspirations are linked in some way, and should be explored simultaneously. And you must admit, math and meditation are both appropriately cerebral pursuits. At any rate I found "Beyond the Relaxation Response" an excellent book. In fact, I read Uie whole blasted thing by Sunday night. Through my enthusiastic response to what I was reading, I discovered something profound. At heart I really am an open- minded, mentally flexible individual. For years I've regarded myself as a very conservative stick-in- the-mud kind of person. I don't believe in ghosts, vampires, devils, Tarot cards or any of that stuff. That's because places like Auschwitz were the work of ordinary people gone bad. When human beings start blaming their own evil on some poor pathetic. litUe wuss with horns and a cape, all they're doing is giving themselves an excuse. The devil made me do it. Sure. Well, I'm a realist So I began Dr. Benson's book on meditation wilh an abundant supply of skepticism. As it turned out my skepticism didn't last for long. Not even 20 pages. Benson pointed out Uiat a person's mental state can induce real physiological impacts. He cited illness triggered by stress, and the real effects occurring in patients on placebo treatments. He went on to suggest meditation could be used deliberately to play a role in securing and maintaining good health. The relationship between the mind and Uie body is not a new subject fo Benson. In 1975 he published "The Relaxation Response", a how-to book about meditation and it's benefits. In "beyond the Relaxation Response" Benson goes farther than saying meditation can be simply beneficial to a person's perception of well-being. He moves toward Uie point of saying Uiat a person's perception of Uieir well-being is Uieir state of well- being. But Benson remains a scientist, an M.D., and he won't go aU Uie way to point of advocating faith healing. Citing examples of Tibetan monks who can raise the temperature of their skin when they are in a meditative state, Benson suggests that meditation can be tapped as a resource to help people influence their health. Benson also adds a significant element to his meditative blueprint. "The Relaxation Response" instructs readers to meditate by finding a quiet place, getting into a relaxed body position, shutting out distractions, and repeating a word or phrase to induce mental relaxation. In "Beyond the Relaxation Response" Benson urged readers to select as the repeated word or phrase something that articulates Uieir core religious or philosophical values. By so doing, the potential of Uie meditation to reinforce well-being would be considerably enhanced. Mind over matter. Maybe there's matter in Uiat sort of thing after all. Oh, by the way, did you know that when you multiply any single-digit number by nine, the answer is always a two-digit number with a tens place value digit that is one less Uian the number you're multiplying nine by? And also, Uie sum of Uie two digits in the answer is always nine. Meditate on Uiat one, my dear friends. =€??. -■- 1 m &^.$^>&M^M&sm THE ALDERGROVE STAR, AUGUST 30,1995 1 HTI t Until this Saturday Only!

Outlaws play back-to-back LANGLEY - August 27 saw the Langley Outlaws travel to North Delta to defend the Junior Bantam Championships in the Sun God Tournament. The first opponent facing the Outlaws was the Westside Warriors. In the second play of the game a fumble recovery by the Outlaws led to one of two touchdowns by Steve Garratt. Two more touchdowns by Blake Begusich and an interception by Barry Cruickshank was enough to secure a 27-0 win. Jason Ciok converted the touchdowns. The Outlaws then had to play back to back games. Facing Cloverdale first, Steve Garratt's run set up a touchdown run by Rob Cloutier. Not to be outdone, quarterback Brian Bath ran for a touchdown while Neil Phillips, Danny Malone and Blake Bcyusich anchored the defence and held on for a 13-0 win. In their last game of the afternoon the North Delta Colts hoped to unseat the Outlaws, but an interception by Blair MacPherson and a blocked punt by Blake Begusich foiled their attempts. Touchdowns were then scored by Outlaws, Rob Cloutier and 'Steve Garratt giving the Outlaws a 3-0 record in the tournament. The team was rewarded with the Junior Bantam Championship!

The Posse doubled the Glaciers 2-0 last week. SURREY - Although the upgrading of the Stetson Bowl hasr been more expensive than first planned, the project still has many advantages for Surrey, city manager Doug Lychak said, Aug. 25. Commenting on 100 pages of previously-confidential documents released by the city, he said costs rose partially because the scope of the project expanded, and some components were upgraded from the original proposal. These included additional seating, permanent washrooms and change rooms instead of portable facilities. Other factors he cited for increased costs included soil conditions, weather, and actions taken by the Surrey Glaciers base- ball club, responsible for the work, without reference to council. The renovated stadium now is more multi-purpose and flexible for special events and community use. This will provide better opportunities to generate revenue compared to the old facility. The Glaciers have submitted final estimates indicating a cost of $2340,000, said Dave Gomm, the city's manager of special studies. Of this, $300,000 has already been paid in cash by the Glaciers. Another $350,000 is being contributed by Surrey to cover work, which would have had to be done on the stadium anyway, including meeting structural concerns on the existing seating and a contribution to the permanent washrooms lo address a long-standing deficiency at the facility. This, he said, leaves almost $l,7-million.

Gomm said under the original deal, the city would have received a surplus of $366,000 over a 10 year period, but would have contributed $100,000 less in cash. Lychak said.the facility will be used for special events, growing community baseball needs, as well as professional baseball. "From all our preliminary evaluations, without doing a full audit, we believe that, by and large, we got value for money on the project, even on the latest figures," he said. FUlt TAX? Not This Year!

Tel is advising companies and organizations to beware of long-distance telephone fraud. Tlie latest type of phone fraud to hit the province involves criminals, who make calls to businesses in the Lower Mainland and other major centres in B.C. from New York City phone booths, using stolen longdistance calling card numbers. "In recent weeks these fraud artists have contacted switchboard operators at various companies and impersonated telephone company staff," said Vern Lillies, B.C. TcTs corporate security director. "They ask to be transferred to an outgoing line in order to do testing. In many cases, the operators agree. From there these fraud artists proceed to make a number of long-distance calls, which are then billed back to tlie B.C. companies." Lillies says knowledge is the most effective weapon in combating long-distance telephone fraud: "If you know your enemy and their tactics, you can then take a : defensive line of-action to protect your organization." "Our employees do not call switchboard operators or receptionists to test phone lines," Lillies adds. "If you get a phone call from someone claiming to work with B.C. Tel and requesting an outgoing line, ask for a call-back number and an employee identification number. That usually deters any fraud artists from pursuing tire matter further." B.C. Tel is also advising customers to ensure their telephone systems are not configured to allow outsiders to access business lines. Business customers who want to report an incident of fraud or need more information can call 1-800-972-7284. THE ALDERGROVE STAR, AUGUST 30,1995 51 i ■ p J ■ I | •'■ J'T P"!1"1^ Western Canucks achieve the dream RICHMOND - After twenty years the game of Mixed Orthodox Pitch Softball has finally achieved the dream of taking the sport outside the boundaries of the province. September 1 to 4 at Softball City, the first ever Western Canadian Championship involves 14 of the best teams from B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan. Joining the top teams in B.C. will be a total of six prairie teams. Four clubs from Alberta will travel west to the four-day event including the provincial gold medalists, Black Knights, and both tlie silver and bronze medalists as well as the fourth place runner-up. Saskatchewan is sending their gold and silver medal winners. Organizers in B.C. have high expectations about the calibre of tlie visiting prairie teams. Started as a purely social game in the mid-seventies, Mixed* orthodox softball sought its distinction as a sport by tlie pitching style allowed. Mixed orthodox requires pitching with an underhand delivery (the slo-pitch arc and windmill windups are not legal). This rule sees the ball put into play more often, forcing the defence to be more active. The rapid growth of the sport can be credited, in part, to this pitching restriction. There are now well over 500 organized teams throughout the province. Orthodox Softball's popularity has spread throughout the country. The Western Canadian Championship will be a prelude to a possible national championship by 1997 or 1998. Host committee chair, Ross Ruddick has noted the progression since the beginnings in the seventies. Player and team calibre has advanced exponentially. The game being played today is still social, but has become far more refined and more competitive than ever. It is the most exciting type of softball for fans. Mixed orthodox softball is great family entertainment. Round robin play in the four day event begins at 9 am, and all (lie action takes place at Cana- da's premier softball facility, Softball City in south Surrey. Admission is only $2. More information is available by calling 531-3220.

UCFV25 1083-05 Farm waste to be probed ABBOTSFORD - BC Environment staff will be increasing the monitoring program for agricultural wastes over the Abbots- ford-Sumas Aquifer this winter. This is part of an ongoing effort to protect the aquifer's water quality and water resource values. The Abbotsford-Sumas Aquifer is a 260 square kilometer underground storehouse of water that is used by some 100,000 people in British Columbia and Washington. The aquifer is easily contaminated from surface activities. In recent years, nitrates have been detected in many wells in the aquifer at concentrations above the standard set by health officials. The aquifer extends into the area south-east of Aldergrove town. Agricultural activities that contribute tp the contamination of the aquifer include improper manure storage and application and residue from the use of pesticides. The Agricultural Waste Control Regulation and its companion, the Code of Agricultural Practice for Waste Management outlines how agricultural waste must be managed to reduce impacts to the groundwater and surface waterways. For example, during the fall and winter months, October 1 through April 1, producers must ensure that all stored solid manure is securely covered and that there is no application of manure to bare laud. While die majority of the agricultural community manage to minimize impacts on the water quality, there may be some producers who are still not aware of the Agricultural Waste Control Regulation and its implications for daily fanning practices. This winter producers found out of compliance with the Agricultural Waste Regulation over the Abbotsford-Sumas Aquifer will be notified by a visit from Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food staff and/or a member of the Agricultural Environmental Protection Council. Producers who remain out of compliance two weeks after notification will be served a Pollution Prevention Order by BC Environment staff. &^-!%Z&&V}g&ZX-KX-$&&'&.X%%&&.$t i^^ '>...:-¥-■*■■ *. ■ > ....-:;si;' --!' ? ■iiffi^jfr- I've found my PNE party animal!

As of August 1, only three banks are dealing with government of Canada or B.C. student loans. The Bank of Nova Scotia, the Royal Bank and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce are accepting Canada student loan documents; the Bank of Nova Scotia and the Royal Bank are handling the provincial student loans. -th&—H ART ATTIG THE HOBBY HUT "Put some pleasure in your leisure" *0483 Fraser Highway, Langley, B.C. 534-1125 Detif Klahm, president of the Langley Camera Club, poses with a picture of his daughter Amber, in front of the club's display on Salt Lane.

"Each UCFV student, whose application has been registered with tlie government of BC, will receive a letter from us asking them to come .in and pick up their document, and giving them a time they can come and talk with the baink representatives on campus. Students can start doing this as early as tlie week prior to classes" says Romaniuk. Also, most of these banks' branches in the UCFV region will be on extended hours (4 to 7 pm) the same two weeks to accommodate student loans. "We really hope students will take advantage of this" says Romaniuk. She also hopes students seeking to negotiate documents won't wait until the first week of classes. "If we can get some tilings done in advance, it will really help the loan process." Students, who have had Canada student loans in the past, must arrange to transfer to one of the three participating banks. However, there is no such requirement for new provincial loans. Representatives of the Royal and Nova Scotia banks will be at the Abbotsford campus August 29, 30, 31 and September 5-8; on tlie Chilliwack campus August 30 and September 5-8, 9 am to 3:30 pm each day. Students seeking more information should contact Carol Ambridge or Coby Romaniuk of UCFV's Financial Aid office at 864-1601.

Hi^,'.a^^.g^fe Return to school signals need to take good care linHiPi VANCOUVER - As summer is winding down, ICBC and police throughout the province want to remind motorists to drive 'JMrJlf f£*^fi$ti!&J with extra care when they §g J - '^iiiiWkL^ encounter children heading back 'f% I \ H | to school. During the first days of school, children can be so excited by new experiences that Uiey forget about road safety. Motorists need to be aware of this and should be prepared for Uie unpredictable. Motorists are reminded to slow down in school zones, watch for students being dropped off or picked up by their parents, and stop for school buses when their lights arc flashing. And with school back in session, the 30 km/h speed limit in school zones - which are marked by signs tagged with the lower speed - is once more in effect from 8 am to 5 pm on days when students arc in class. If your kids are starting school this fall, it's a good idea to go over Uie route with Uiem, showing them how to get to and from school safely. Even older children need to be reminded of the rules of Uie road, and to stop, look and listen before crossing the street.

By JEAN JOHNSON LANGLEY - Ask most any middle-aged woman who grew up in a rural area of B.C. if she is familiar with Women's Institute, and she probably will respond in the affirmative, mentioning that her mother or grandmother or someone else she knew had been a member. However, if questioned about her own involvement, she likely would admit that when she left her home community, she did not seek out a Women's Institute group at her new residence, and then she got busy with other activities. And her daughters may Weil have never even heard of "W.I." British Columbia Women's Institute plans to change diat widi an intensive campaign to make women aware of the opportunities and benefits available through membership. According to public relations officer, Jean Johnson, Women's Institute has been a positive force in rural communities since the turn of the century, quietly working at getting tilings done, without fuss or fanfare. W.I. was an accepted part of the social fabric, women generally joined when they moved into a community, and die organization did not need tp promote itself. However with the rapid changes in society, cspe- cially the rural areas, and the demands on dine and energy, the membership now realizes it must take Uie initiative to blow its own horn and loudly. Some of the opportunities the organization wants to showcase include: Why W.I.? To learn - from speakers, workshops, each other; to gain - awareness of social issues, self confidence, leadership skills and new friends; to enjoy - Uie friendship, fun and warmlh of participation; to network with women of all ages; and lo have a voice - in helping to build a better tomorrow. Branches generally meet once or twice a month, at a time that suits the members. Each group chooses its focus, within the goals of die organizaUon, and the enthusiasm of the members. If they Wish, a half dozen like-minded women can start a group of their own, using a starter kit provided from the provincial office. At Aldergrove more information on local Women's Institute can be obtained by contacting Mary Twemlow, 6113-256 St., VOX 1A0, (Coghlan W.I.) or Irene Wilson, 105-264 St.Div., V4W 2L7 (Patricia W.I.) or the provincial office at 205lO Fraser Hwy., Langley, V3A 4G2, phone/fax (604)533-6564.

AUGUST. 30.1995 It's the 15th run Board hits mark with 'Love Taps' PORT COQUITLAM - Sunday, September 17, marks the 15th anniversary of the Terry Fox Run, the largest single-day fund raiser for cancer research in the world. Since Terry's untimely death fourteen years ago his dream to find a cure for cancer has been embraced by millions around the globe. To date a remarkable $144-miIlion has been raised for innovative cancer research projects. Each year die funds raised for cancer research through the annual run have increased. In 1994, 3,600 sites in Canada raised a record $8.1-million. Over 550,000 participants walked, ran, wheeled or roller-bladed their way to a record year. Those who participated in the Marathon of Hope in 1980 have a special perspective fifteen years later. Darrell Fox, Terry's brother and companion on the Marathon of Hope, can understand why Uie Run is still so successful. 'Terry's experience with cancer gave him a scusc of purpose and taught him that nothing in life is ever truly bad - even cancer. Through his actions and example Terry awakened in all of us the critical need to raise funds for cancer research." People respond to Terry in a very special way, remembers Leslie Scrivener, columnist and author of the biography Terry Fox: His Story. "I think of his sacrifice. His determination. His Annual meeting LANGLEY - The Regional Disabled Persons Association annual general meeting will be held Tuesday, Sept. 12, at 10 am at the Langley Sr. Resource Centre, 20605-51B Avenue. The R.D.P.A. is a non-profit organization whose members are working toward a goal of accessibility and awareness within the community through public education, networking with other community agencies, and cooperation with local governments. The society also operates a used medical equipment registry for those wishing to buy or sell used equipment. We have many excidng projects lined up for the coming year, but we need more members and volunteers to help Uiese projects become a reality. If you enjoy new challenges and are interested in helping others in Uie community you are invited to attend out meeting and meet our members. For more information, call Bonnie at 533-2415. modesty and naturalness," she says. Today Scrivener realizes that, while most children were not even born when Terry ran, they can still relate to his story. "Young people especially love hearing his story. They often think that perhaps they can do something great some day, somediing for odier people." Darryl Sitdcr, a Toronto Maple Leafs legend, was one of Terry's heroes. He ran widi Terry in die summer of 1980 and, in a interesting twist, considers Terry as one of his heroes. "Terry had a great impact on mc, as I had the opportunity to meet him and experience him as an individual. He was a humble guy. He was young and full of life and he had a big dream." Today Sillier is proud to say, "Just as I tell die story to my children, Terry's message is passed on dirough generation." "There is a universal acceptance of Terry and what he stood for. He covered every generation and every walk of life. Terry was an original, and he did what he did so humbly," says Isadore Sharp, President of Four Seasons Regent Hotels and founder of Uie run. "There are people that are held up as icons. Terry was and is one of Uiese icons with his boy- next-door appeal." Betty Fox, Terry's mother and honorary chairperson of the Terry Fox Foundation, knows that her son's dream is not yet realized. "Many more people are being touched by cancer, and as a result each year their families and friends want to help support cancer research by collecting pledges for The Terry Fox Run. We can never give up what Terry started, because the cure for cancer must be found. Our lives or die lives or our children and grandchildren are at stake. I know that we will succeed and finish what Terry started." Scrivener sums up it best when she says, "Everyone wants to do something to help cure cancer. Terry gave life to our noblest intentions. It is a wonderful Canadian story." And die story lives on Sunday September 17. Terry Fox Runs are being held throughout Uie world, and local residents can choose from a number of Lower Mainland sites.

Commenting on the six-day production, which began filming Aug. 24, Jennifer Torrance, producer NFB Pacific Centre, said.

We found a nice place just off the road and set out our lawn chairs on the grass next to our van and put our rods in the river. We were enjoying the peace and quiet, until a fifth- wheclcr pulled up just in front of us. The young man driving the truck got out and disappeared inside his camper. Only minutes later a young woman arrived and parked her sporty little car immediately behind our van. She got out and headed for the trailer. She disappeared. The windows on the trailer were tinted black so we couldn't sec in. Shortly after my husband said he smclled pot, and I don't mean the metal kind. Sure enough we looked over and there arc clouds of smoke coining through the draft ojwning on top of the trailer. We were flabbergasted, but we got on with our lunch. An hour into our lunch we made coffee and were sitting there quietly sipping, when the back of the trailer started to rock back and forth. Well, you don't have to be a genius to know what those young folk were doing in there. We were all shocked and amazed that things like litis would be happening so close to us. Several minutes passed and the young woman came out, got in her car and drove off. Her hair was a mess! The young man came out, got in his truck and drove off in the opposite direction. What do you diink about that? Should wc tell someone in authority or stop going down to the river to fish? Signed: Seen enough to last. Dear Seen enough to last, Try lo put lhat whole incident out of your mind and get on with your life. Maybe you and your husband and friends should try to find another spot to fish. Live and let live, as my old granny used to say. Dear Readers, Remember to get your entries down to (he Aldergrove mail on Friday, September 8, between 6 and 9 pm. And then wc will sec you all on Saturday the 9th from 9 am to 5 pm lo enjoy the Aldergrove lall Fair. Bring your family and out-of-town guests and have a good lime. ALDERGROVE - "Prosperity is around the corner," say-many analysts. Just how close - or how far - is that corner? No "GO" signs are posted on the way to it for any but the few major holders of that, which supposedly represents wealth, but does not! "Money", according to Nobel prize winner, Frederick Soddy, "is the nothing one must have in order to get something." On the way to that corner, mired in the swamp of problems such as un-employment, debt, high medical costs, toxic elements, meaningless political wrangling and violence, are the vast majority of the population who will neyer reach that goal. How have we arrived at such an impasse? Surveys by Technocracy Inc. to determine the answer to that question have shown conclusively that the course we have been, and are, following, will lead inevitably to disaster for all - rich and poor alike. Only by seeing it from the point of view of a big picture, can a solution be devised. Members of Technocracy Inc., from many points of the continent, will assemble here over Labor Day weekend to discuss just such matters. Highlight of this gathering will be a lecture by Ron Miller of Portland, Oregon, on The Determinants of History, at 8 pm, Sunday, September 3, at Technocracy Auditorium, 2946-272 Street. Anyone interested is welcome to attend. A question period follows the lecture.

Something to try By ANNE MORRISON LANGLEY - Active Living is all about people helping people and celebrating community leaders. One of the latest Langley community Active Living initiatives is no exception. Tlie Langley Leadership Series is the result of a partnership between Public Health, Parks and Recreation, the Aldergrove Community Centre Society, and the Langley Partners project. Together they conceived of the idea of showcasing local Langley leaders to support and teach individuals and groups who want to polish their leadership skills and enhance the effectiveness of their organizations. An underlying principle is Uiat our community is loaded with local talent and expertise and that finding a way to bring people together to share their skills will automatically strengthen our local leadership base. In fact, we have so many local leaders to choose from that it was a real challenge to decide where to start! The leaders who share their skills will be volunteering their time. In return, they will receive a donation back to the group they represent. What a great way to strengthen groups all the way around! An added bonus was that this Active Living initiative qualified for "Communicating in the Lang- leys" funding, administered tiirough the Langley Health Communities network. As fall approaches and you face the start of another year widi your group, now is the time to fine tune your leadership skills so that you can enjoy even more success. Be among the first graduates of this Leadership series and/or pick up the particular session that fits your interest. The sessions have been arranged so that any group of 5 people can register together for a reduced rate, making it easy to recruit your entire executive. All the workshops will include timely tips, handouts, and lots of time to put the new ideas into practise. The series runs from September 25 through October 30 with sessions on How to Run an Effective Meeting (presenters: Bruce Strongitharm and Michelle Coleman); Speaking Tips (Darlene Stradling and the Toastmasters group); How to Find and Keep Volunteers (Kay Johnson); Facilitation Skills (Sue Morhun), and How to Build Partnerships (Joan Rankin and Anne Morrison). Thank you to all the leaders who have agreed to kick off this series. We hope that it can become a regular, annual event with opportunities for all kinds of leaders to participate. For more information, contact Anne Morrison, East Recreation Office, 856-2899, or call any recreation office to register.

To book your spot call Ernie 856-8303 Abby airport's come with the By MONIQUE GALAZKA ABBOTSFORD - Council will be getting some help when it comes to making a decision about what to do with the Abbotsford Airport. Oris W. Dunham, Jr., Director General of Airports Council International, attended this year's airshow and was invited back to speak to council regarding the airport at last Monday's meeting. Dunham has extensive, worldwide experience in airport management and said he would be willing to assist council in making a decision. In his speech he repeatedly stressed the importance of long term planning, long term goals, and long-term finances. He said with the rapid growth in the region there is no reason why Abbotsford shouldn't have an international airport, but tlie 747s from Hong Kong should be left to Vancouver Aiqiort. Water okayed LANGLEY - The township approved construction of a water system by local improvement for 56A Avenue cast of 246 Street to 246B Street. An Aug. 4 petition of residents was successful, and the $19,400 cost will be repaid by property owners over 20 years at a frontage rate of $119.80 per taxable metre. Arthritis month plans are for all ages, tastes LANGLEY - The local Arthritis Society branch has a busy cal- • endar for the month of September, wliich is Arthritis Month. Local coordinator Karen Rogers said the events planned for September are primarily to raise awareness of the services available in the community for those suffering with the affliction. "There are many who are in their 20s and 30s who suffer badly, some can't even work," she told The Star. "It's not just an 'old folks disease' but the help we offer, especially the Arthritis Self- Management Program, can make a huge difference and put people back on the track to jobs and a better life than they might have thought possible." The calendar events include: Sept. 3, Fifty 5-6-7 Car Club Picnic, gates open at 10 a.m. at Aldergrove Lake Park. Admission is $2 each, free to under 12 years. Sept. 5, Flag Raising of the "Blue Bird" at 10:30 a.m., Langley City Hall with mayor Marlene Grinnell. Sept. 18, Health Forum, 7-9 p.m. at Seniors Resource Centre, 20605 - 51B Avenue, free admission. Panelists are Sandra Castle (Arthritis Self-Management Program), rhcumatologist Dr. Simon Huang, RN Cheryl Magnusson and LMH nutrilionist Colleen McGuire. This will be an informal and informative night. Sept. 24, Spaghetti Dinner at Evergreen Hall, 20355 - 54 Avenue, 7:30 p.m. start, $5 each. Advance tickets only; call the Langley office, 532-9671. future could "big birds" "No one wants to build a 12,000 foot runway here, but there is no reason why Abbotsford Airport can't handle a lot of the north/south international flights," he said. Dunham also said (here are many non-aviation ventures that can subsidise aviation activities for the first few years, such as golf courses, and foreign trade /ones. "The golfers will have lots of room to play and won't complain about the noise.from the airport until they get home. They can't have it both ways." On a more positive note he said that a passenger airport in Abbotsford will be able to sustain itself within a few years. He finished his speech by saying that council should have some say in how Uie airport is managed, whelher they want to outrighlly own and manage it, contract management out, or privatise it completely. Computer Corner By ROBERT MELYNCH&K This is the first column of Computer Corner. I will try to answer questions that are of interest to most readers. I attended the launching of Windows 95 at tlie Imax Theatre. The interest in Windows 95 was massive; Microsoft had to turn people away. Microsoft has sold 10-million copies so far, and they expect to sell 50-million plus. Windows is without a doubt the leading operating system today. In fact, IBM have announced that they camiot catch up to Microsoft's Windows 95, although there are some experts who believe Os 2 Warp and Apple are better operating systems. What will Windows 95 do for you? Well, Windows 95 will do your work faster for you. Your mobile computing will be more reliable, faster, and take less battery power. You can shut down errant 16 bit-based applications without crashing the whole system. Windows is supposed to let you plug in printers, etc., and configure them automatically. However, your hardware must be already programmed to identify itself to Windows 95, otherwise you cannot plug and play. Write to me at this newspaper.

Sign variance gets approval LANGLEY - A reluctant council has approved a variance on its sign control bylaw to allow Trinity Western University to place an over-size fundraising campaign sign next to its sign along Univcr- sily Lane. The sign would be set back 80 feet from Glover Road, during the drive to raise $7-mil- lion for (he private institution. Couns. Muriel Arnason and Steve Burton were adamantly opposed, pointing out that the township is currently pursuing other sign, bylaw infractions through lhe courts. However, the majority — mayor John Scholtens broke the lie vole -- sided with TWU's plea because of lhe circumstances, including lhe fad that the university made its formal rcqucsl before actual installation, and because of ils temporary nature. The sign will be 16 feet wide and eight feet high, and designed by professional illustrators to call attention (o Uie "Vision Of Excellence" capital campaign.

Coun. Muriel Arnason was the sole vote against first and second reading of the bylaw amendment, Monday, citing the impact it would have on other retailers. Arnason said the office at the Aldergrove border crossing would have a captive market, which gave it an advantage over retailers in Walnut Grove. Coun. Trudi Campen said she couldn't sec it making any difference at all to Walnut Grove retailers. New arts directory compiled LANGLEY - Increasing arts activity in Langley is receiving recognition from township economic development commission's development of an Arts, Culture and Heritage Directory. The directory will offer free listings to emerging and professional artists as well as related businesses, clubs and associations. When completed, it will be a useful community reference, indicating group and individual instruction sources and other retail sources for purchasing art, and making it easier for artists to network and find local suppliers. Classifications in the directory will be extensive, encompassing a wide variety of creative activity, from architecture to dance; lapidary to music. Opportunities for paid display ads will also be available, together with general information of interest to tlie arts community. Allan Robinson, chair of the EDC, notes that arts activity brings economic benefits to a community. Across the province, artists, and (lie institutions which support them, employ more than 47,000 people and have a direct economic impact of more than $1.6-billion. "Langley's environment is conducive to artistic and cultural pursuits," said Robinson. VWc aljso have many groups and individuals promoting and preserving our rich heritage. These activities not only provide jobs close to home, they also encourage the growth of small and home-based businesses, attract the interest of major companies wanting to relocate, and promote a growing emphasis on tourism." Following on ils successful launch of the Farm Fresh Guide and the I lorse Industry Directory, the EDC. foresees a similar success for tlie arts directory. Directory listings will be added until the end of September, with publication planned for late fall. The listing form may be obtained from the economic development department of the township (4914-221sl Street; 533-6127) and is also available from the 'Langley Arts Council (5202-- ?W$ffifc£r?!8WfflrY* adjacent one acre lot at 24339 Fraser Highway to permit the expansion and improvement, as well as better truck access, however an Aug. 14 public hearing brought out numerous objections from neighbouring residents.

This bylaw amendment was formally adopted on Aug. 28. training LANGLEY - With the province withdrawing funding for some community care facilities under its New Directions mandate, Linden Lodge is applying to change their use to a missionary training facility. The owners have applied for the rezoning to allow use by 34 trainees and 10 staff, at 21233 - 32 Avenue. Township council gave the first and second redding, Monday, and the proposal will now proceed to public hearing. ALDERGROVE - A merging of two existing lower mainland companies dealing in metal pipe and tubing will bring about 40 jobs to a new warehouse in Gloucester. Marmon/Keystone Canada Inc. received approval from township council, Monday, for a development permit for their new warehouse on 7.49 acres at 27447 - 56 Avenue. Company spokesman, Bob Kenicke said the amalgamated operation of the large, in tenia tional companies formerly based in Vancouver would oversee distribution in B.C. for the various tubu lar metal products they stock. Office space is attached to the warehouse. Plans for the 60,000 square foot warehouse and 4,850 square foot office were in compliance with local bylaws. There is also potential for future expansion of the warehouse on its west side. - There were no submissions from the public regarding the permit hearing, however, the plans were modified in consultation with the neighbouring General Motors warehouse owners to satisfy their concerns over access and landscaping.
