'W'^r¥^t' . -WM& m Fergie, Abby top polls By MONIQIIE GALAZKA ABBOTSFORD * Mayor George Ferguson is very happy about being elected tlie new mayor of tlie .^."amalgamated city of Abbotsford, and he was overwhelmed with the majority of the votes he received, saying, aldiough he always thought he could win, he didn't think ir would be with such a huge majority. "Even . the people in the (Matsqui area voted overwhelmingly in my favour, "he said. Ferguson was the last mayor of Sumas. and played a major role in tlie j amalgamation of FULL ELECTION RESULTS, PAGE 2 Sumas ahd Abbotsford in 1972. Appropriately he will be tlie first mayor of the city of Abbotsford. As for die area of the city bordering Aldergrove, Ferguson says Uiat the new council will be reviewing tlie potential of the area and what can be done, keeping in mind die idea of controlled development . "Areas such as Bradner and Mount Lehman need more attention," he said, " They will be reviewed as well." Langley township mayor Jolin Scholtens told Tlie Star Uiat he's enjoyed "a good working rela tionship" with Ferguson since Uie time boUi men served on die board of Uie CFVRD, and is looking forward to continued joint effort in planning future growth in the Aldergrove-area of Langley and Matsqui. That process began wiUi fomier Matsqui mayor Dave Kandal, "and I know their staff will soon bring Ferguson up to speed on what we'd like to see Uiere," said Scholtens. ;^& Ferguson says Uiat he knows, everyone elected to the council, and is looking forward to working with them, especially Uie newcomers. Melissa Cook, Amanda Halliday, Chelsey Morin, Lea Folstad, April Ellerman, Jessica Deegan and Camille Boate of the ,12th Aldergrove Guide Company were planting trees along the banks ot Bertrand Creek on Sunday. The tree planting is part of the ongoing efforts to reclaim the creek. -Tim Attwood photo Pressure up on amalgamation By KURT LANGMANN i_ANGLEY - The Arts Council and On Stage Langley have boUi expressed appreciation for township council's "intention to proceed wiUi development of a cultural centre" and boUi groups have offered Uieir assistance in letters to council. Coun. Muriel Arnason suggested Uiat council write back to let the groups "know Uiat Uie music school is part of a much larger project Uiat includes a new municipal hall and commercial component. Shouldn't we tell Uiem what's proposed?" Arnason found no takers to Uie suggestion. "It will all come out in Uie wash," said coun. Trudi Campen of. the proposal for a multi-purpose facility, adding Uiat a "task force" is working on Uie proposal. After Uie meeting, Tlie Star told. mayor John Scholtens that some Matsqui voters had voted against fomier mayor Dave Kandal because his council had built Uie multi-million dollar auditorium in Uie Matsqui Government Building without referendum. The auditorium is used for .public government meetings and is rented out to various arts groups. Former MLA and mayor Harry De Jong, whose council had built- Uie Government Building, finished a distant tiiird in Uie Nov. 26 election. Arnason was the sole councilor to vote against beginning the cultural centre project without referendum, but tlie oUier councilors had all campaigned in last year's elections partly on pledges to proceed widi Uie long-awaited cultural centre. Two referenda on Uie cultural centre had failed in Uie 1980s, and since Uien Uie township has set aside millions of dollars in its reserves for capital projects such as the new works yard under construction and the cultural centre. Councilors have been seeking private proposals for construction of bodi new ice arenas and the cultural centre. Two private proposals to build a $6-million ice arena in Walnut Grove advanced to public hearing stage this week, and councilors- ex pressed relief Uiat a self-financing arena appeared likely to proceed. However, Uie culmral centre is more problematic, especially as Uie first phase of a music school and recital hall is for a non-profit group, Langleyv.<>om- munity Music School. On Stage has raised, and continues to raise tens of thousands of dollars for Uie project, but Uie total bill will be in die millions of dollars. The township is searching for corporate involvement in Uie cultural centre project, but Scholtens said Uiat objective would have been much easier to achieve as part of a business revitalization project in downtown Langley city, rather dian in die Munayville hill part of Uie township Uiat was chosen after city councilors rejected die township's offer to be 50-50 partners on a dtp. site. "Amalgamation is the only solution," said Scholtens, pointing to Uie consolidation of Matsqui and Abbotsford. "It's ridiculous to have a separate city government for four square. miles, when the city and township have die same Please see page 2...

"We are looking towards a bright future," he said. Voters decided veteran politician George Ferguson will keep job.

The letter was in response to a township inquiry, and assistant air quality director Robert Smith said Uiat, "While the equipment is technically acceptable, we have some concern with the proposed location of the crematorium. There is potential for some smoke and odour from such facilities, particularly during mechanical malfunctions or operational upsets. The impact, from an aesdietic perspective, of such emissions on neighbouring residential and business areas could be significant, considering dieir- very close proximity. As you are aware, we are hot involved in decisions regarding municipal zoning. However, we would recommend'diat crematoriums be located away from residential areas, or if diat is unavoidable, in areas where vegetation can be utilized to provide some degree of isolation from the community." Coun. Muriel Arnason also expressed surprise when Tlie Star gave her a copy of the letter Monday: "Tlie GVTUagijhad only said there was no problem widi it, as far as I knew."

"(City mayor) Marlene Grinnell said Uiat amalgamation is up to Uie voters to demand and Uiere Seems to be a movement for it, judging by letters to Uie editor in the papers, and comments that I hear from residents," said Scholtens. "I hope that pressure keeps up... but it's true, mayors diat build new municipal halls generally don't get to sit as mayors in them for very long. Still, you have to do the right thing, and let the public judge you as Uiey may." The two private ice proposals for Walnut Grove received first and second readings, Monday. One from Grant Getding is for five acres at 20100-block of 91A Avenue, and the other from Tobem Projects Ltd. is for 8.9 acres at 8900-block of 202 Street. Bodi seek to build four sheets of_ ice, in stages of two sheets, at a time, although Tobem's also includes a public leisure rink in its first phase. They also propose ancillary features such as pro shops, restaurants and sports bar/lounges. The latter feature raised some ire witii Arnason, as she said, "There are enough drinking holes already." She admitted it was an "old-fashioned concern" but she had heard complaints from residents near Uie new, private Twin Rinks in Uie city about inebriated patrons using foul language and urinating in die parking lot. "When it's private enterprise we have no control... are we going to see beer sold in the stands?" Arnason added that she brought up these concerns because Uie Walnut Grove arena would be open to minor hockey and figure skaters, whereas other licensed establishments here are generally distant from public facilities such as schools and youth centres. Odier councilors said they were pleased wiUi having private proposals that would not require subsidies from taxpayers and would instead be tax revenue generators. "We can't have it all," said Trudi Campen, pointing to Uie township's annual subsidy of $225,000 to the public Aldergrove Arena. "Government is tight for money." ' "We're prepared to allow a bar," said Headier McMullan, "to save taxpayers a lot of money." "Then taxpayers will have no say in die matter," said Arnason. LANGLEY - The debate over die public's right to own "exotic animals" is becoming more controversial, and the township is expecting a large turnout and range of opinions at a public meeting diat will be called early in die new year before proceeding wiUi their new bylaw. Council heard a delegate from Uie private Rainforest Reptile Refuge, Monday, request Uiat the new bylaw be accepted and expanded to include reptiles and amphibians. Christine Schramm said Uiat she and her husband, Clarence, have operated in south Surrey for eight years and now look after some 300 abandoned cold-blooded critters, from snakes to tarantulas. "We live every day widi die results of lack of controls" over peoples' choices in pets, said Schramm. "Where will diis madness end?" She said die success of Jurassic Park has meant that sales of reptiles have grown, but the novelty soon wears off and widiin weeks after Christmas die former pets begin showing up at hex front How they fared in Abbotsford voting ABBOTSFORD -"Unofficial results" -ottiie Nov. 26 municipal elections (standings as of 21:18:13 with 38 polls of 38 reported) are as follows: Referendum: New city name: Abbotsford*: 18,982; Matsqui: 3,363.

She said her facility is open as an education centre for local school children and, as part of the tours, she stresses die "unsuit- ability" of these animals as pets. Schramm said that national laws and international agreements are not preventing die importation of reptiles into Nortli America, and gave die example of diree quarters of a million iguanas being brought here in 1993 alone. "Captive breeding will never reduce importation... it's opposed by monetary interests." Headier McMullan, die councilor who has led die township in drafting die proposed bylaw, said 16,000 exotic reptiles and amphibians were imported to Vancouver last year. Scliramm said that as certain breeds of animals become common, .importers find more exotic varieties to market to people who seek somediing more unique. Usu^ly, diese animals are poorly cared for, suffering from malnourishment, stress and parasites in die process. "People don't know how to look after tiiem," agreed coun. Muriel Arnason. Coun. Steve Ferguson said, "There are two sides to die story," and suggested that die problem paled next to die six million cats and dogs exterminated each year in die country. However, he made die point that expanding die definitions in die bylaw wording could include everything up to Jersey cows and still nOt solve Uie problem of cruelty to animals. Mayor John Scholtens said Uiat council ^will not hear any more delegations on Uie issue until Uie public meeting, to be called in January before adoption of the new bylaw, ,whidi lias had first and second reading. The bylaw, which began as a measure to pre vent wild animal*eifcuses from working in Uie township, also seeks to prevent trade in, and ownership of, a variety of "exotic" animals, and as a previous delegate told council, currendy includes llamas and fallow deer in die proposed wording. Vancouver Game Farm is exempted from the bylaw, but farm manager Don Adams has expressed opposition to the bylaw. Scholtens said council "dianks (Scliramm) for picking up die residue of man's intrigue" widi wild animals, and that diere's ■ been a lot of interest in die township's "trendsetting" bylaw. However, "we shouldn't be including Hamas" in it, said Scholtens. WALTER J. PEARCE SELF EMPLOYED? Are you Financially Protected?

Allan Rock said recently that he won't introduce legislation into the House of Commons for "cultural defenses", criminal code amendments which would allow people to escape conviction on the grounds of religion or culture. A discussion paper released by the minister raised several issues surrounding the possible change. One of those suggested that a cultural defense should be added to the Criminal Code to reflect Canada's multicultural diversity as well as recognize the importance of beliefs and practices of other cultures. But, noted the paper, such a change would likely bring about insurmountable legal wrangles. The question that has to be asked here is a simple one: Do we have one law for everyone or do we have separate criminal codes, courts and lawyers for every unique group across the spectrum of Canadian culture? Such a system would be completely unworkable. A person could be exonerated of a crime in one situation while a person charged with the same crime could be held completely culpable in another. In the tradition of courts, the figure of Justice is a woman, scales in one hand, a blindfold about her eyes. Why is she portrayed in this manner? |J|lV Because Justice is blind. All are equal before her. In saying he won't introduce a cultural defense, the justice minister has left Justice blind. As she should be. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR There is a wind blowing across the province and the B.C. hinterland Editor, Tlie Star, Sir, Last spring four Socred MLAs walked across tlie floor and joined the B.C. Reform Party. At tlie time it seemed like a heavensent opportunity for the BCRP to gain entry to tlie legislature. These four members had a choice. They could have "stayed as Socred members and it is quite likely diey would have been wiped out along with tlie Socred . party after die next provincial election. If diey had crossed die floor to sit as Liberals diey would have had to resign dieir seats and run in by-elections. Ron Gamble and several original Reformers welcomed diem widi open arms. At die all-scandidates meeting in Kelowna on November 21, it became very apparent diat all was not Well in die Reform movement. When Jack Weisgerber was being questioned and defending his Reform conversion he said that die Reform Party only had 200 members when he crossed die floor and now it was up to forty-two hundred. On November 22, diere was a leadership candidate meeting in Osoyoos. The four Reform candi- Letters invited The Aldergrove Star invites letters to die editor on topics of interest to die community.

Jack Weisgerber, Dawson Creek, did not attend. Under questioning Gamble admitted diat B.C. Reform membership had varied widely and diat die Reform Party had fifteen hundred members in January of 1991- Under further questioning Gamble reluctantly admitted diat he was no longer sure of what Weisgerber's motives were in joining Reform. Many Socreds are joining die ranks of die Reform movement in large numbers. The question here is whedier die Socreds have learned dieir lesson or not. The Social Credit movement in its last days became an arrogant power hungry group. They proved their dishonesty to the people of diis province and die people, riglidy, direw diem out. When questioned about die Socred swelling of die ranks of die Reform movement at die Osoyoos meeting, it was admitted by Terry Milne diat former Socred groups were forming executive members of constituencies widiout first becoming members of die BC Reform Party. The northern constituencies and dieir BCRP executives have not taken die. time to invite four of die five candidates for leadership to dieir rising to speak. It is sad for their membership because diey won't have a chance to see the qualities diat diese men exhibit. Tlie winds for change are blowing in the west. Reformers come from the ranks of all parties. The problem here is not where, diey came from but how diey behave once they become Reform members. The federal Refprm western landslide was a signal to all politicians. If the BC Reform Party cannot get itself straightened out, die voters of diis province will straighten it out for diem. ERNEST L. SLUMP Osoyoos Aspire to bigger things Editor, Tlie Star, Sir, You know it is so easy to get discouraged diese days widi our youth. It seems all we hear or see on television is die bad part of growing up in today's society. We are riddled widi it on a continuing basis. It's an ongoing debate. If all we see is violence, hate, distrust and fear, do we continue to hang our heads down and accept diis as die norm for die '90s because we can't see beyond it? We should ask our news media to report a great deal of die good diat comes our way. In fact we should insist on it. Perhaps if our diildren began to see diere are others who try hard, often against all odds, to make a difference in dieir lives and die life of die community diey too would aspire to reach brighter goals. This volunteer worker had die most inspiring opportunity to attend die Aldergrove Community Secondary School awards ceremony on November 15; five district scholarship awards, five provincial government sdiolar- ships, four university entrance and academic scholarships, along widi so many others. When diese students, dressed in blue jeans, looking fresh and full of the energy of life, stepped forward to receive dieir awards, I for one nearly fell off my chair, overwhelmed by dieir accomplishments and aspirations. Thank you to diese students for going beyond die mega deadi music and society to make a life for diemselves. Thank you to diese students for putting hope back into the eyes of this grandmodier. Thank you to diese kids who reach out into the oommunity to assist in volunteer programs and in doing so help each odier. Thank you to die teaching staff at Aldergrove Secondary for dieir dedication to our youdi. Someone over diere must care in order for diis one school to receive so many high awards. Congratulations to Bron Mach who received die Canada Scholarship, die Governor General Bronze Medallion for academic excellence, the Science Council of B.C. Award for outstanding graduating science student, and more. Jodi Boyde, Mark Messmer and David Balsted,- along widi odi<ys, for dieir outstanding representation of Aldergrove. We thank you. Let's encourage our children to see beyond \ die Cobains, die dreary music proclaiming deadi to everydiing, the grunge look. Instead let's ask to see more of today's excitement for living. We need to see it, feel it, toudi it and have it in our lives too. Those of us who remember when home, family and community were not dirty words, ask our youth to look up and aspire to greater diings. We are very proud of those who have. SYLVIA BAKER, Aldergrove Knives In use by Reform Editor, The Star, Sir, It was indeed disheartening for this Reform Party of B.C. member to hear of the Socred style of backstabbing of our leader, Mr. Ron Gamble, by Mr. Weisgerber at the party's September 27di Victoria press conference. Everyone joining die party pledges to be guided by the constitution, policy directions, principles and bylaws, approved by members at die annual convention. But not Mr. Weisgerber, who - now safe from political oblivion - publicly stated diat he disagrees with a number of areas of Reform party policy, whicli would be "revisited" once he is elected as the new leader of die party. 'Socred echoes' indeed! Mr. Weisgerber's further public remarks of September 28tii, diat it is he and the other diree (now four) ex Socred ML A's who now dictate party policy in caucus widiout having to answer to die leader (and by extension to the membership) smacks of political opportunism and of a deplorable attitude, contrary to Reforms' grass-roots policies and directions. When his remarks were challenged, Mr. Weisgerber described them as "healthy". It is indeed this type of healdi diat killed the Socred party. All diis begs die question: "Why does Mr. Weisgerber now seek die leadership of die Reform party of B.C.? Is it to sincerely promote die existing policies of the party, or is his ulterior motive to simply assure himself of his own political survival and of a neo-Socred agenda, after die Socred ship so unceremoniously disappeared from die political seas?" I suspect it is die latter! CASEY BERLANDA Vernon Political 'cave-in Editor, The Star, Sir, In die strongest language possible, I would like to protest die federal government's cave in to its previous commitment to demand diat Communist China improve its human rights records. The major trade and odier deals diat Mr. Chretien announced recendy, are nodiing less dian shameful to our nation, and I feel betrayed. In die context of what really happens in China, plain Canadians should refuse to have anything to do widi a foreign government that oppresses its people as only communists have done elsewhere. We should not be swayed by what die; politicians have dreamt up, as diey did widi- die Charlottetown Accord. Shame on die Langley businesses diat stand to gain from: this "unholy alliance". . The following examples show what die Chinese government does: All Chinese women between 15 and 45 are subject to diree monthly pregnancy checks on possible pregnancies without permit. Those found pregnant beyond their first diild must accept abortion. This checking takes place by nocturnal raids from door to door. Those who escape, are fined to die amount of five to ten years salary, or destruction of their houses. How ridiculous! About 2000 to 3000 human organs per year are cut from die bodies of executed (as well as not-quite-dead) prisoners. In fact, they are killing people for their kidneys, hearts or corneas. These "body parts" are dien sold to loyal servants of die revolution and to cash-paying foreigners. Can we approve of this? Most jails (=laboiir camps) are doubling up as die factories diat manufacture our consumer goods, clodiing and car parts. Even the multi-nationals like Chrysler have links with diese institutions. By buying wares made in China, we direcdy condone diis situation and lengtiien die suffering of political dissidents, many of whom have been in jail since die Tiananmen Square uprising of 1989- " China has also started a comprehensive program to control die expansion op* unregistered Christian evangelistic activities. Only diurdies diat agree widi government policies are tolerated. Communism is not dead, it is only extremely good in double speak, and die direat of world domination of this god-less political system is as much alive as before die fall of the Berlin wall. The mydi is now officially propagated diat "acts of violence are only committed by counter-revolutionaries".

Aldergrove took a 2-5 loss in this one but each game played at Tier 2 level just shows them getting stronger. They burst forth with a 7-3 win over Seafair Sunday, clearly dominating the play. - Janet Blair photo Drought over for Pee Wee A's ALDERGROVE - Where were you as the B.C. Lions ended their opening rush with a field goal on their way to victory in the 1994 Grey Cup match. The Allied Windows Pee Wee A Bruins were putting the cap on their first league play victory against the Seafair Islanders. We were not so lucky Thursday night in Aldergrove in a challenging, fast paced game against Richmond. Richmond is a fast skating team with excellent game strategies. Aldergrove was forced to work hard to keep up with tJtiem but we could see a definite improvement in the Bruins play as the game progressed. The first period saw Richmond open the scoring with a shot deflecting off a Bruin skater, followed late in the period with a second goal on a powerplay. Aldergrove was quick to answer with a goal by Scott Robinson, assisted by Chris Colonval and Josh MacKnee. But Richmond was to end the period with their third. Lots of chances on both sides in the second period with the goalies at bodi ends making timely saves. Richmond was to get die lone goal here. The Bruins came on strong in the third, out-shooting Richmond and picking up their second goal on a powerplay shot by Chris, assisted by Scott and Tyler Perkins. An unfortunate turn for the Bruins as Richmond's fifth goal was tipped in by a Bruins skater, catching goalie Shane Marchant by surprise. The game ended a 2-5 loss to Richmond but coach Don Schulz was happy with his team's overall strong performance. Grey Cup Sunday has the team in Richmond to play the Seafair Islanders. The Bruins turned out well focused and wanting a win. Seafair started off;|^?^oring but Aldergrove brought the2game to a tie —Mike Robertsr^from Martin Niqgfla and Mike Haber — in first period action. The Islanders scored early in the second. Then came ten minutes of hard play as both teams gave it their all. Aldergrove was outshooting Seafair 3-1 and finally got the break at the four minute mark to tie the game with a goal by Paul Daley, assisted by Dustin Goodman and Matt Roberts. Seconds later Scott Robinson got the go-ahead goal, assists to Ben Henthorne and Josh MacKnee. The lead was short lived however, as Seafair got their third to again tie up the score. Then as the clock ran down the final seconds, Martin set up Mike H. to give the Bruins back the lead. With the same shift still on the ice to start the next period the Bruins opened with a goal in the first minute of play — Mike R. from Martin. Nothing would get past goalie Davis Parley in the third and the Bruins just kept getting stronger. Dustin Goodman's penalty shot was stopped by the Seafair goalie, but back-to-back goals by Martin, assisted on the first by Mike H. and on the second by Mike R. sealed the victory at 7-3 for the Bruins. Aldergrove scoring stats: Martin Nicola, two goals, three assists; Mike Roberts, two and two; a goal and two assists for Mike Haber; one goal apiece for Paul Daley and Scott Robinson; Ben Henthorne, two assists; and Dustin Goodman, Matt Roberts and Josh Macknee each earning an assist. The 3M line ( Mike, Mike and Martin) was the power line in this game — scoring five of the seven goals and earning seven assists as they moved the puck with purpose and precision passing. A well deserved win, the victory celebration was called short as the Bruins rushed put of the dressing room to tune in to listen to the Grey Cup game on the car radios.

LANGLEY - Gold Key United playing away to North Shore United at Loutet Park in North Vancouver on Sunday, November 27 found themselves on the short end of a 4-1 score. Playing on a waterlogged field widi pools of water two to tliree inches deep, did not lend itself to a passing, running type of game. Nortli Shore adapted better to die conditions and were die much better side diroughout die game. They scored at die diree minute mark and led 1-0 at die half. Nortli Shore scored diree more in die second half to run up a 4-0 score before Lori Ormrod scored the lone goal for Gold Key with 10 minutes remaining. Coach John Deacon when asked to comment on die game said, "On a very small field, widi mud and water pools all over die pitch, took our style of play away from us. They were obviously more used to the conditions, and were able to dictate how die game was played." Next game for Gold Key will be on Sunday, December 4 at Parkside on 32 Avenue, widi a 10 a.m. kick-off against S and P International from Vancouver. tm Aldergrove Star "lllegitumus non carborundum'1 The Aldergrove Star presents Xmas Hockey Skills Contest Aldergrove Arena Monday, January 2nd 1995 - 10 a.m. EVERY PLAYER WINS A PRIZE THE MORE YOU WIN!!!

Bruins hosted Ridge Meadows, hoping to erase a two game losing streak suffered the week before. Aldergrove always comes out and plays hard in die first and this game was no exception as die home team scored die only goal of the first. The puck swept around Ridge Meadow's net on the boards. Greg Wismer tipped die puck up to Greg Neufeld who fired a cross-ice pass to Keidi Howson- Jones who blasted die puck by the goalie for a 1-0. Sadly Aldergrove was held off the scoreboard for die second, a period which, while even at tlie beginning and end, was dominated by Ridge Meadows. Great action highlighted diis period as i did Aldergrove's defensive work. The third had long periods of Ridge Meadows dominance interrupted with Aldergrovian rushes and brief zone work. The fast action continued into the period and it seemed more even Uian it (was. However, Ridge Meadows received all die breaks and bounces which Aldergrove's goalie, Will Parley, and defence, did not. Ridge Meadows scored four times to take die game by a score of 5-1. Fast-forward now to Grey Cup Sunday as Aldergrove had an early game against North Delta on die road. As mentioned before, Aldergrove came out fired up in die first and were rewarded widi a goal at 7:02. Jamie McKay intercepted die puck on the boards in die North Delta zone and dien zoomed around die net, outracing the trailing defence- men. He went for what looked like a wraparound, but instead direw it out in front to Scott Cleeve who blasted the puck over die outstretched goalies pad for a 1-0 lead. The visitors dien added to diat lead when Derek Marchant passed up to Rich Pearce who passed to Jamie McKay at center who came down on a 1 on 2. He deked out one defenceman, swung around anodier deep, then pulled out and slid it through die goalies pads widi just seven seconds left. North Delta dien started using dieir size, continually flooding Aldergrove's crease widi players. This tactic led to four goals in as many minutes. They added one more with six minutes left to take a commanding 5-2 lead into the diird. The last period was again taken by North Delta who scored two more times despite great all round work by Aldergrove, but die real story was when Greg Fornier was heavily checked from behind into die boards and had to leave the game widi a suspected arm problem. Even diougli Aldergrove failed to score on die ensuing power play, diere were many good chances. Goalie Scott Mathieson was solid for most of die game but die final score did not reflect it - North Delta 7, Aldergrove 2. For diose who have been reading diis artide you know diat die Aldergrove Atom B Hewitt and Co.

The Bruins were led by die goal-scoring heroics of Jesse Sewall, who scored five goals, including die first diree goals of die game for a natural hat trick. After Nortli Shore got on die board late in die first period, Sewall struck again early in the second for a 4- 1 Bruins lead. North Shore moved to widiin two goals at die 6:30 mark of die second, but Mark Windle's goal 11 seconds later restored die Bruins lead. Less than a minute later the Bruins were up 6-2 as David Mamchur scored widi assists to Windle and Larry Fraser. Sewall got his fifth of die game late in die second, on an assist from T.K. Laidman. Windle got his second , of the game in die diird, assisted by T.K. Laidman to make die final score 8-3- Darcy Benson, widi assists on three of Sewall's goals, was anodier offensive standout for die Bniins. Aaron Slagman was solid in die Bruins nets, widi help from die defense corps, particularly Ben Eldridge, Shawn Pandin, and Steven McGovern. On Sunday, Nov. 20, die Bruins travelled to Lonsdale Arena to play Nortli Vancouver B2. The Bruins prevailed 9-7 in a shootout. Bruins led 4-1 after die first period on goals from Jesse Sewall, Adam Dodd, David Mamchur, and Mark Windle.

Amnion Sivia and David Mamchur chipped in with two assists each. Bniins had their hands full on Tuesday, Nov. 22, in a game in Richmond against a fast-skating Richmond B2 team. Richmond raced to a 3-0 lead before die Bruins could get their attack rolling on a goal by Jesse Sewall, widi a great assist from Darcy Benson to make the score 3-1 after one period. Aaron Slagman made some great saves in die net to hold Richmond to only one goal in die second. The defense tightened up as well to keep the quick skaters of Richmond at bay. Derek Charles, Ben Eldridge, and Eric Strandt were good at keeping the Riclimond team to die outside, protecting dieir Bruins bite Bulldogs ALDERGROVE - This Tuesday evening's game at Aldergrove Arena saw die Dawson Brill Bruins score die winning goal widi just 0.19 seconds remaining -in die diird period. Eric. McGovern was. die 'hero of die day' for the team, scoring die winner with a good effort from within close range of die net The game featured tight checking and two teams trying very hard to gain die victory.

Aldergrove had to suffer a 3-2 loss on this trip. Saturday, November 19 at Seafair, 'Grove started out hot but once more reffing affected the tempo of both teams and cost Aldergrove in tlie final tally. Goals w<3re scored by Matt Holmes and Jason Ballantyne, witlji credit for both assists going to Tanner Rattray. 0n November 21, West Van pa'id 'Grove a visit and tlie locals tied them up before letting them go. Willi T.O. Leakey as 'tender, two goals were scored by Rob Maksymetz, with assists by Sean Askin and Chris Fox. David Haber popped in a single unassisted, for a final tally of three-all. A more common occurrence in our home contests is to have only two officials by game time and die local team fortunately manages to get a good Samaritan to line, since die pace and quality of the game is sacrificed by inadequate reffing. These all-important officials seem to be in short supply. Alas, die Bruins can't blame the loss Uiey suffered at the hands of Mission in die local rink on November 28 on inferior or miss^ ing referees. Generally, coaches Pat Ansell and assistant Russ Smidi feel diere was an initial good effort by die team, but it was the lapse in die second period diat beat Aldergrove. Defence got #dob- bered on a couple of occasions and die Bruins were outscored 7- 2. The seven penalties diey drew Scott Seiffert, Sandy Brown, Greg Maggio and Dean Arsene had good games. Sandy Brown displayed some of his magic with two tallies; Scott Seiffert continued his scoring ways widi a goal and an assist; Dean Arsene chipped in his usual good effort for a goal and an assist, and David Haber also picked up a goal for his hard work. Two assists recorded for Kevin Keith, one for Greg Maggio and Rob Maksymetz. . Derek Ottosen was back on the ice after hurting his shoulder in a game earlier this month.

J.994 I WHY ONE FAITHFUL CATHOLIC REFUSED TO WORK FIRST, GRIEVE LATER' Wanted: Social worker, no conscience, please By LYNN NEUMANN Mcdowell In a modest basement room dominated by a metal desk and high single bed, framed saints look down on stacked boxes filled with remnants of the occupant's seven-year batde widi die British Columbia government over her right to exercise freedom of conscience and religion. Tall, spare, 33-year-old Cecilia Moore meets questions widi die unself-conscious manner of a veteran witness - wliich is what the shy devout Roman Cadiolic was forced to become after she was fired by British Columbia Social Services for refusing to request abortion funding for a client. "I was naive," says Moore. Thinking she could, rely on departmental guidelines and die Criminal Code, Moore refused the request on policy grounds. When the applicant appealed, Moore's supervisor ordered her to approve the funding. Moore explained her secular reasons for denial: in February 1985, procuring an abortion - except where die life or healdi of die woman was in danger - was a criminal offense. Accordingly, British Columbia regulations specified that abortion funding requests be supported by a doctor's recommendation. In diis case the client's doctor declined recommendation because of his patient's guilt over a 'prior abortion and her fear of dying under anesdiesia. The client had also confided to Moore diat she believed abortion was wrong, but being single and in her 20s, she saw no alternative. Moore consulted a more experienced and openly pro-choice colleague, who agreed diat die client didn't qualify for assistance. None of this concerned the supervisor. He- ordered Moore to approve the funding. Moore was stunned. "I thought my supervisor had lost his mind...I thought we could all be charged!" Believing he'd rethiak his decision, Moore didn't raise her religious qualms until it became apparent she was going to be forced to sign. She didn't know diat such applications were routinely approved regardless of die regulations, and that her boss considered conscience a fatal flaw in an employee. In his evaluation of Moore's work, die supervisor stated: "On reviewing die appeal (widi Cecilia)...the issue was based on her objection to abortion on moral grounds." His report and Moore's written refusal to participate "in the surgical holocaust of human life" drew die irrevocable batde lines. Moore suggested diat she take extra files from coworkers in exchange for an exemption from working on abortion applications, a request supported by her shop steward. Tlie supervisor refused, insisting diat it was Moore's "duty" to carry out his orders. Her only option was to "work first, grieve later." Intimidated by die possibility of losing her job, Moore rationalized diat merely signing a paper was not performing an abortion. She decided to save her job and consign the blood of the unborn to die doctor who would perform the operation. But morning wasn't bright for the usually buoyant Moore. "I experienced die darkness of rejecting Jesus and this tiny unborn child," she recalls. "I felt a gnawing on my conscience - that I would forever have to live with this dead baby on my conscience." The feeling was vivid, as vivid Cecilia talking with other anti-abortion protesters in front of a clinic: "My name seems to have become synonymous with crisis pregnancy." as die illustration on die card peering from the glassed-in bookcase at her back. The card, designed for Moore by an AIDS patient to whom she ministered as chaplain, depicts a double crucifixion: Christ in agony, behind a huddled fetus, stretches out His omnipotent but helpless arms over the unborn who shares His cross. The darkness was too much. Cecilia decided that she could not, whatever the cost, abandon . that child. "I made a promise to God that if I ever got fired - and I never believed that I would - I would fight tliis case." When she was fired, it was a shock, and she tried to talk herself out of fighting her dismissal. "I said to God, 'I'm too shy! I don't know anything about court; I don't have much money'." But when, after four months, no relenting voice wa.% forthcoming from the heavens, Moore swallowed her fears, filed a religious discrimination com plaint with die British Columbia Human Rights Commission, and sought a lawyer. "Perhaps my naivet6 helped," says Moore with a half smile. "It could have been cruite overwhelming to consider that 1 might have a debt of $90,000 built up over seven years, or that I'd have to fight in so many courts, testify so many times." Procedural questions dogged the case, stretching Moore's six- mondi timetable into seven years. Her lawyer, Humphrey Waldock, advised her to take the case to a superior court rather than die Human Rights tribunal so diat it could be heard on a wider basis. The federal Charter of Rights and Freedoms promises freedom of conscience, in addition to the freedom of religion protected by the province's legislation. Moore and her lawyer also decided to confront the tiiorny question of abortion head-on. The decision was cosdy. The British Columbia Supreme Court ruled that Moore should pursue her remedy under die provincial act, which guarantees protection from religious discrimination, or her union's collective agreement (her union had refused to take up her complaint of unfair dismissal). The court added that if a charter remedy was sought, an arbitration board could hear that argument and apply the charter. Waldock was shocked by this then-new view of the ability of tribunals to apply the charter, and appealed. The British Columbia Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court. Next they applied for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. But by this time one of their grounds for demanding a superior court hearing, abortion, had been removed from the Criminal Code, making that portion of the appeal moot. Canada's highest and heavily backlogged court turned down the appeal request. Having been jobless for four years (prospective employers sometimes telling her that she was a security threat, untrustworthy, or a troublemaker), Moore, to save legal costs, drafted and compiled most of the 20 volumes of documentation eventually submitted to the Human Rights Commission at the six-day hearing. Waldock would review her work, and she would revise. For more than a year Moore sat up nights writing, rewriting, binding Cecilia with an infant: She talked the mother out of an abortion. documents, learning more about the law. When she took the stand .in 1991, she was directing the member of the commission designated to hear the case, Lorna Barr, by volume and page number to the answers contained in her submissions. "You were like the judge, cross-examiner, witness, and lawyer all rolled into one!" Ban- laughingly told Moore later. During Moore's diree grueling days as a witness, Barr found her to be entirely credible. She determined that Moore had been discriminated against on religious grounds. Though her employer claimed she was unsuitable for the position and insubordinate, the employer's logical but unspoken assertion was that Moore was unsuitable because of her beliefs. The argument, says Waldock, was ludicrous. "Anyone who doesn't have .morals is unsuitable!" After nine months of deliberation, Barr in June 1992 ruled that Moore's employer had a duty - to the point of undue hardship - to work out a situation that would accommodate her beliefs. (In a similar case concerning dismal for Sabbath observance, Renaud v. Board of School Trustees and Canadian Union of Public Employees, die Supreme Court of Canada in the fall of 1992 rejected the "undue hardship" test as too low a threshold for measuring an employer's duty to accommodate employee convictions and held Renaud's union as well as the employer responsible for working out an accommodation.) Barr also noted, however, that Moore should have at the outset disqualified herself from acting on the fde because, though die regulations allowed for such funding, Moore's conscience prevented her from considering or applying all the lawful options. "Moore and Waldock considered appealing the comment about voluntary disqualification, feeling that it turned religion into a "museum piece" rather than an active belief system to practice. But in the end, they did not appeal. After the award of six months' wages, interest, and Cdn$l,000 for hurt feelings (Cdn$ 12,000 total) as well as a Cdn$30,000 "Dollar Drive" engineered by a supporter and her own and other private donations, Moore's legal bill has been whitded from Cdn$90,000 to Cdn$25,000. Not one to let conviction gather dust, shortly after her firing in May 1985 Cecilia and two friends started what has become Vancouver's 20-counselor street counseling program for women contemplating abortion but open to alternatives. On dieir first visit diey went to a local hospital. Moore was still so shy she sent her friends while she stayed in the shadow. "I figured if diey didn't get arrested, dien I'd go!" she jokes. The police did come to observe as the counselors engaged individual women at the abortion entrance in low-key conversation. Now an accomplished public speaker and part-time hospital chaplain, Moore volunteers coundess hours as a coworker of the Modier Teresa Order, which organizes dinners for the needy and housing for pregnant wornen. She "works also as a consultant for numerous organizations, and general beacon for troubled mothers and dieir pregnant daughters across Canada. "My name seems to have become synonymous widi crisis pregnancy!" she says. The well- known connection has gotten her named as a party m contempt of court hearings involving a "rescue" blockade at an abortion clinic, though her support was stricdy arm's-length (die charge was thrown out). Moore grows serious when asked how she found die strengdi to face not only the lengdiy legal batde but also a long job search and die will to translate personal conviction into concrete assistance for women in crisis. "I felt it was a calling from God. Anything I've done I can take no credit for...I've seen and witnessed much more incredible courage in people who have no support. "What a gift this whole case has been! It's put me in touch with people I never thought I'd meet, doing things I never thought I could do. If you change the word problem to gift, you'll see an opportunity in every struggle." A sketch of Modier Teresa sits in the bookcase behind her, another gift from Moore's AIDS artist/friend patient. "You don't have to do anydiing great. You just have to do die tilings of your everyday life widi great love and service for Jesus - in whatever faidi you are."

College, Perinatal partners LANGLEY - The Langley Perinatal Society and Kwanden College announce a new partnership for the delivery of prenatal education to the Langley commu- - nity. Starting January 1, Kwanden College will deliver prenatal education courses for the society. As in the past, prenatal courses will continue to be offered at the Langley Health Unit. "It should be a smooth transition," says Maureen Lister, prenatal programs facilitator for Kwanden College, "People will not notice any significant changes. Several of the current instructors will continue to teach in the program and the college will work with the Langley Perinatal Society to receive input from the community." Kwanden College has a long history of providing prenatal education. The college, in partnership witii the Boundary Health Unit and the City of Richmond Healdi Department, has offered prenatal education classes throughout Surrey, Delta, White Rock, and Riclimond for seven years. "The prenatal classes are designed primarily for first-time parents and people in new relationships where one partner has not been through the experience," says Lister. "The first class is taken eariy in the pregnancy. Tlie remaining five dasses are taken closer to when die baby is due. A reunion afterwards completes the program. Financial assistance will still be available for diose unable to pay the $115 fee for die six-class series'. The series is a way to connect with people going dirough a similar experience. "It's an opportunity to hear odier points of view and learn from people's experience," she says. This helps people define the birth they would like jto have and enables them to communicate that to their physician or caregiver." While sessions focus on labor and birth, they also serve as an introduction to parenting and making informed decisions. "Being knowledgeable equips people to be involved in the decisions being made during labor." To register for January classes call Kwanden at 599-2533- In The Eye of the Beholder Just a little brown Sparrow with unseeing eyes, Breath now stilled, A feathered victim, no more he will fly, The grey cat caught him, now he will die; Such a small thing, yet the breath of life Pulsed in his body, gave him flight; A brown little beauty, he soared 'neath the sky, Now he lies, small wings stilled, No more will he fly. -Frances Evanoff, Jubilee p AT THE MOVIE fi Yes, a real dirty shame Tjjj-^tf&figffi^^tf?^ 11° By LARA BRODIE I am deeply saddened when I leave a dieatre realizing diat die best thing about die cinematic experience has been die 15 minutes of coming attractions which occurred two hours previous to my departure. This is especially disappointing when I believe diat had I taken a poll, the rest of die audience would have been in agreement widi me. This assumption is based on the fact diat die largest amount of emotional response emitted from die fair- sized audience was, again, during die previews. Even diough I am becoming a record widi a really big scratch, it bears repeating, Hollywood has perfected die art of piecing togedier stimulating previews but rarely are die movies half- die entertainment value of diat trailer. Keenen Ivory Wayans directed, wrote and starred in this latest example of a disappointing motion picture, and yes it really was A Low Down Dirty Sha me diat all die effort was reserved for die trailer. Tlie story line of diis movie will be difficult to forget since it's been used before and will probably be used again. This would not be a totally bad thing if only screenwriters would stop wasting our time and get it right. This is die plot: there's one man, Andre Shame, an ex-cop with a tarnished -name who is now a private dick. God has now blessed him with unlimited intelligence, physical ability, wit and ammo to take on about 60 other men, some of whom are trained in martial arts, and all of whom are carrying plenty of gunpowder diemselves. What sort of suffering does ShameChave to put up with? He gets artistic, litde macho cuts just over the eye, odier dian that he's ready to take on die next scene. There's also die requisite close-ups of female body parts. I'm talking female, buns and no equal time given to male buns. Someone should start a petition. Jada Pinkett, last seen in Jason's Lyric and Menace II Society, plays Andre Shame's receptionist/sidekick named Peaches (ugh!). I thought she added a small degree of spunk and fun to the show but then unfortunately her stereotyped character had been recycled right along with die plot. Enough said on diat. Fans of the soap 'The Young and die Resdess' may enjoy the brief scene with Don Diamont (Brad Carlton on Y&R). his character wasnt a great stretch from. rtN e p l EM^^^mm CINEMA CLEARBROOK CINEMAS rr 32500 SOUTH FRASER WAY i 850-2233 °" THE PAGEMASTER: Nightly7:25,9:00.

Palmer has a great voice, writes fine songs, has written and starred in Barkerville productions, and has been trying to crack into the country music market widi albums, singles and videos (his latest is Kiss This Cowboy Goodbye, seen on Much Music and Country Beat). However, his roots go back to the folk boom of the '60s, when he started out, so he brings a natural interest to diis new production. Written with the help of Harry Parsons, die musical is a tribute to die folk era interwoven widi die personal anecdotes of Tom, Miles, Carl and Jeannie. Reunited at a high school reunion after 25 years apart, the quartet explores their life choices, friendships and some unresolved teenage angst. , The humour complements an arresting- blend of acoustic instruments and vocal harmonies, and the magic of memorable songs from the '60s. Co-produced by Palmer's agent, Pat Taylor, and Horst Jassmann (Patsy Cline, An Evening Widi Nat King Cole), the show features Palmer, Andrew Johnston, John Payne and Marlee Wdchuk. Ross Douglas is musical director and staging is by Mary Lou Brien. It will run from Dec. 9 to Jan. 7, Mondays to Saturdays, and tickets are $10 to $15. For reservations call 530-9862. Showboat, the Kern and Hammerstein musical, opens die Ford Centre For The Performing Arts in mid-November of 1995- The show has already grossed $50-million since its premiere in Toronto in October of 1993. and also set a new Broadway record for biggest advance box office gross sales. While the 1927 show has provoked some outcry among Toronto's black population for "stereotyping blacks" (although none in New Y>rk), it can be argued that the show's theme was ahead of its time in its serious portrayal of social conditions and racial tensions of the 1890s Old South. While scriptwriters have updated some terms that are currendy considered politically incorrect, no major changes have been made to tlie story itself. The songs are masterpieces: Ol' Man River, Bill, Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man and many more. Directed by Harold Prince and produced by Garth Drabinsky (who've brought us Phantom Of The Opera, Kiss Of The Spiderwoman, Joseph And The Amazing Tachnicolor Dreamcoat), tickets for the show go on sale shortly, even if it's more than a year away. The other big hype is for the new arena of the Canucks and (with any luck) the new Grizzlies basketball franchise. In the push for sales of the last 5,000 season tickets, Rock-101 CFMI and Subway are pumping the Grizzlies on Sportstalk. Every weeknight Dan Russell awards Grizzlies and Subway merchandise and once a week give away an 11- game Jam-Pak. The grand prize, announced Dec. 6, is a flight to New \brk for dinner and NBA action at Madison Square Gardens. New releases: Sting's best of collection since leaving die Police, 14 songs dating from 1984 to 1994, is Fields Of Gold on the A&M label. I'm a fan of all his albums, but I have litde argument with the selection of songs represented here. There's some gems, winds Langley too, such as the original, previously unreleased version of VCfe'U Be Together, featuring Eric Clapton just awailin' on his guitar. Two are new songs, the stately romance of When We Dance and the genre-bending The Cowboy Song with a funk beat, twangy guitars and jazz piano. Sting has always taken chances while keeping grounded widi solid songs. He's also no dimwit; I've talked with him twice in his Police days and he was an interesting conversationalist and graceful interview subject, and his intellect is revealed in his lyrics as well as his political activism. We could use more "pop stars" like him, but in die meantime pick up his Fields Of Gold. Woodstock '94 is a two-CD collection of one song each from die major acts at the past summer's 25th anniversary of die east coast's answer to die San Francisco "Summer of Love." There's a few flashbacks to yore (Crosby, Stills and Nash, Bob Dylan), but mosdy it's a disparate assortment of newer acts (or newer songs from older acts like Aerosmith), some of it pretty bracing listening too. I suppose it captures the spirit of the event but die range of tastes and styles is at times overwhelming. I enjoyed Live, Peter Gabriel, Melissa Etheridge, Violent Femmes, Porno For Pyros and the Neville Brodiers, but could have done without Nine Inch Nails, Collective Soul, Jackyl and Cypress Hill. Different strokes for different folks, I suppose. Music West seeks new acts VANCOUVER - If you are an unsigned original artist, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss.

Municipalities want justice in charter LANGLEY - Violent criminal acts should not be excused because of extreme intoxication by the perpetrator, agree councilors, but coun. and lawyer Steve Burton said he's wary of municipal suggestions to amend the Charter of Rights. Recent cases of use of this defense in Canada have outraged the public, countered odier councilors, who approved a request from die Fraser Lake council to send dieir support of an amendment to senior levels of government. The resolution asks die prime minister, minister of justice and attorney-general to amend die charter, "so that willful ingestion of a mood-altering substance may not be used as a defense when offenses are committed." A similar motion is under review in the Senate, and justice minister Allan Rock said diat the matter is coming up shortly for discussion in the House of Commons.

Sorci has a permit from tlie province's waste management branch, and carries a $5-niillion environmental insurance policy.

Deputy mayor gets pay slashed in '95 LANGLEY - The township will no longer pay the deputy mayor an additional $300 per month. The position will also be rotated among the six councilors every two months. Coun. Muriel Arnason voted against tlie bylaw at first, noting that tlie niayor receives $48,000 per year and councilors $16,000: "VXe haven't done very much, I don't think we deserve it." Councilors were split and mayor John Scholtens cast die deciding vote against die bylaw, but when Arnason realized that die bylaw carried no wage increases and only a cut to die deputy mayor's pay, she brought it back and it passed by a vote of four to two. Coun. Steve Ferguson was appointed deputy mayor by Scholtens after die 1993 elections, on a trial basis, but grumblings from other councilors resulted in council deciding recently to revert to die former practice of rotating the job. For his part, Ferguson expressed "glee when it ends; it's a diankless situation."

LANGLEY - Council granted Nicomekl Enhancement Society its building permit for expansion of its salmon hatchery program at 5231 - 232 Street, Monday. The work, particularly the well for fresh water, had been opposed by neighbours worried about the impact on dieir own wells. A hydrogeological study had shown diat die effects on neighbours ' would not be noticable, except ! perhaps for those who still had shallow wells. The hatchery program initially required a 400 gallon per minute draw on die well, but dirough recycling were able to reduce this to 100 gallons per minute, from Regional health board designated SURREY - On November 30 in Surrey City Hall Council Chambers, die Soudi Fraser Valley Regional Healdi Board was officially designated by Paul Ramsey, Minister of Healdi and Minister Responsible for Seniors.

Reformers' tempers flare From front... tence and followed widi an eloquent speech diat received praise from many of the 100 or so people in die packed Legion Hall. On the other hand, Milne's charges diat Weisgerber's "Socred Mafia" muscled the four out the door at Abbotsford were met with hoots of laughter from the crowd. "This is just the kind of thing the media loves," one man told Tlie Star. "Why are diey shooting themselves in the foot?" Glen Beacliamp, a federal Refomi party director, told The Star diat he was opposed to die party's move into provincial politics because, "We've still got lots of work to do at die federal level, and this takes away our supporters' time." He said he was only diere as an observer, but suspected Weisgerber's motives: "I've only heard him talk about power." He added diat he respected Gamble for "keeping die party alive" and knew Leong well from his involvement in die federal party, but doubted that any of die candidates could lead the party to.majority government. While diis analysis may be true, The Star has heard that ah Angus Reid poll conducted diis mondi has placed popular support of bodi Reform and Liberals neck and neck in die valley, from Langley to Chilliwack. If this rumour is true, it's only a matter of wliich of die two parties can create the necessary momentum for their side before die Premier calls an election. Weisgerber told die audience that Monday's meeting in Abbotsford was advertised as a meeting with Weisgerber, not an all-candidates' meeting, and that he's been working over recent weeks to foster membership growth and help line up four or five "quality local candidates" for the nomination meeting. He said he expects a by-election to be called here by March. Bodi Gamble ancl Milne told the audience that if chosen as leader, diey would seek the Abbotsford nomination. Gamble ran in the Matsqui by-election earlier diis year for B.C. Reform, placing a distant third behind former Socred leader Grace McCarthy and Liberal MLA Mike De Jong. While Weisgerber and Gamble had a public disagreement over Gamble's policy announcement related to immigration issue, the falling out may have come earlier when Gamble said he would seek the Abbotsford nomination. Weisgerber told Tlie Star diat die Matsqui. by-election made it plain Uiat die public does not like "parachute candidates. We have to organize a team, diink about candidates. Matsqui showed that you need good quality candidates, and I've met four or five dirough the federal party (Randy White) diere." This disagreement is likely the best explanation of why Weisgerber refused to allow Monday's meeting to be hijacked by die other four and turned into a public debacle. "Reform is going to win die Abbotsford by-election," said Weisgerber. "And we can win Fort Langley-Aldergrove too. Gary Farrell-Collins lias seen die polls and that's why he's moved to Vancouver." -Comment by Kurt Langmann with Monique Gaiazka die fall dirough die spring. On Monday, council heard from anodier Nicomekl delegate, Murray Graig, who said he had a legal opinion diat said council had no jurisdiction over groundwater issue: "You have no right to hold us up further," said Graig. Councilors agreed coun. Headier McMullan that, "common law applies here" and except for coun. Muriel Arnason who cited die "moral issue," voted to grant die permission to proceed. Coun. Steve Ferguson pointed out diat die Nicomekl project was environmentally beneficial, and gave no odier benefits to die volunteers who operate die hatchery. Just say no WILLOWBROOK - Township council will tell die Liquor Distribution Branch diat diey really don't care for extended hours at die Willowbrook liquor store, even if diere's not much diey can do to stop it. Council was asked by die LDB for its opinion on extension of closing time from 9:30 p.m. to 11 p.m., Monday dirough Saturday, once renovations are completed in January. RCMP superintendent McMartin said diat they'd had no history of problems at die store, and diat a nearby beer and wine store was already open die same hours. Couns. Mel Kositsky, Headier McMullan and Muriel Arnason opposed the hours, however, citing "no value to die community" and mayor Jolin Scholtens broke die tie by siding with the dissidents.

By MAUDIE MacPHERSON ALDERGROVE - I'm thinking of die farmer from Wilkie Saskatchewan who took the life of his daughter. What he did was no cloubt wrong but was the law justified in sentencing him to ten years in prison. Evidendy die neighbor, who posted a bond must not have agreed widi such a harsh sentence. This poor distraught father felt he could no longer stand to see his daughter suffer such excruciating pain, even worse to have limbs removed from her body and to be forced into some institution. It was more than lie could endure and this he diought was die only way out. He was wrong of course but put yourself in his position. He was quite different from a riiBist who kills his Vfeliih and will jpfobably repeal m% act again and possibly serve a lesser sentence. This man's concern was for his daughter whom he loved. In his compassion his friend and neighbor must hope he can assist him in spending Cliristmas widi his wife and young children.

The first two phases are completed and only a handful of units in die second phase have yet to be sold. Azalea Holdings Ltd. agent, Allan Achtem has received zoning approval for die next diree buildings, but die change in plans will now have to proceed to another public hearing before approval can be given. Changes sought are increasing die number of suites from % to 136 in die diree buildings, increasing die height from tliree storeys to four, and eliminating die free-standing recreation building proposed for die site in favour of providing an equivalent amount of recreation space widiin existing buildings in die development. There are 73 suites in the two buildings novy standing, and if approved, diere will be a total of 209 suites on die 7.51 acre site- Since diis would increase density from 23 units per acre to 28, rezoning of die site from RM-3 to RM-3A will also require an amendment to die Aldergrove Community Plan. Municipal planners have endorsed die proposal as it suits local needs and objectives related to housing, District to trim storm sewer requirements LANGLEY - Council agreed to trim back requirements for a storm sewer system that would save $100,000 in construction of the new public fundamental school at 212 Street and 42 Avenue. Ground discharge is not allowed in die area's zoning, but tests have proven that the ground diere would accommodate it "widi no negative impact." The township had suggested die options of running discharge lines to Murray Creek or tie-in to die system at 40 Avenue, but the school district had said the expense was excessive. However, when storm sewer service is extended to die school sometime in the future, it would then tie-in to US-- ----A-l-.J _*.! vXlilli business, transit ancl tlie environment, and will also result in an additional $354,000 in development cost charges paid to the township. The application will also allow die township's desired improvements to Fraser Highway frontage and provision of a public Bertrand Creek trail along die property line. Councilors Muriel Arnason and Heather McMullan expressed concerns about die increase in density, but the issue will proceed to public, hearing widiin the next few weeks. Waiting for the bus , LANGLEY - The good news is diat mini-buses are planned for local B.C. Transit improvements, but die bad news is that die minibus manufacturer is, in coun. Mel Kositsky's words, "having financial difficulty." Township administrator Jim Godfrey told council that "delivery of die mini-buses could be delayed up to a year." Mini-bus advocate, coun. Steve Ferguson chafed at die news and questioned whether die township lias "pinned transit for a date on the review" of local routes. Godfrey said some have already been held and more dates are planned for die future. ers are already in place for die school, currently under construction. Coun. Muriel Arnason argued against allowing the exemption as she saw it as a bad precedent, but Tmdi Canipen said it was to the public's benefit to save unnecessary use of tax dollars. Councilors decide not to interfere FORT LANGLEY - Garry Bereska has been given until December 6 to conclude a lease agreement widi die provincial environment ministry for the San Mateo restoration project. Township councilors agreed Monday diat diey would leave die matter to be setded between the two parties and would not interfere. Councilors had discussed requesting the ministry to enforce a vacate order after diat date, should a lease not be negotiated, but a narrow majority decided diat since die township has no jurisdiction in die matter diey would leave it to die ministry and Bereska to work out. Council is generally supportive of Bereska's project, but has been divided on whedier die present site on die Fraser River is suitable for restoration of the 1922 steam ferry. There has been a lot of public interest and support for die project, too, but a couple living on die hill above it have strongly objected to die view from dieir home and has lobbied die township, ministry and CN Rail to have it removed.

They should put like "satisfactory", "need{£>;improve- ment", or "good", not a. letter grade. diey are. They don't have native programs ... they don't have history from a native perspective; it's just all Canadian history. One school that I have been really impressed with in Aldergrove is die Betty Gilbert school. I diink diat die facilities there are really good and I diink diat the teachers are really interested in die students, diey teach life skills ... diere's a really good program coming out of diat school, and I'm really happy widi it. Widi all the money that diey spent at die high sdiool to improve the facilities it really irritates me that die kids who really need it, die special needs kids, are still outside in portables and diey have only one teadier to, cover diem all. I diink diat die Aldergrove high sdiool does not facilitate the special needs students in a very good way and I diink diat diis is quite noticeable. njoe Garrett, 12: I would change f''"1 letter grades.

The new minimum wage legislation will have a 'domino effect' on all jobs which will further burden employers' ability to increase dieir work force and in some instances could necessitate a decrease". Ball also commented on the elimination of die youth minimum wage: "This may jeopardize job opportunities for young people. Langley business people have often stretched dieir salaries budgets to create part-time and sea.sonal jobs which provide valuable work experience. Elimination of the youdi minimum wage in many cases will cause employers to cancel diese positions". Fundamental high school proposal slammed by critics By MONIQUE GALAZKA LANGLEY - Many people seem upset by a proposal received by the School Board regarding die extension of the elementary fundamental school concept to the secondary level. There- are major concerns regarding die issue because the proposal leaves too many unanswered questions. ^Jn June of 1994, Emery Dosdafl, ^superintendent of schools, received a petition of over 300 signatures requesting such a school. Togedier with Richard Bulpitt (director of organizational development), die principals of Mountain and Langley secondary schools, and a representative group of parents, the situation was discussed and several determinations were made.;||l| Tlie first is diat a school within a school would work best, and Mountain Secondary School would be the ideal location for this option. Secondly, die group came up widi a philosophical statement for the school and decided diat Board Policy 5083 would be adhered to diroughout die implementation of die program. Since die Langley Central and Langley Prairie Fundamental Elementary Schools will be combined at one location beginning in September 1995, it is anticipated that this school will serve as the feeder for die secondary school, which raises die issue of whether the students of the elementary school will have to attend die secondary school. They will not Another point made was diat students do not have to be in a certain catdiment area to attend die sdiool, but will be served on a first come, first serve basis, provided diey sign die forms indicating that they will comply with all the rules of the school. Bodi students and parents must sign a letter of commitment to die philosophy and the expectations of the school, which diey are required to uphold as a condition of enrolment. Trustee Diane Pona raised some concerns about the statement of philosophy, saying that, "It's a sad day when we have to put the name 'fundamental' on a school that will be teaching what every school is expected to be teaching right now.".She says the only difference between this school and others is that parental involvement is not just appreciated but expected. The point was also raised by Denny Ross, who asked, "What is making this school different, and causing it to fall under the heading of an 'alternate' school?" The philosophy of the school indudes statements such as "There will be a conscious effort to foster virtues and diaracter traits such as courage, justice, self-control, honesty, responsibility, charity and the observance of lawful authority," and "The pro gram will develop an atmosphere of pride, loyalty, discipline, helpfulness, commitment and enthusiasm," as well as "Respect for human rights and property shall be taught, as well as tolerance for diose holding different opinions. It will preclude all kinds of physical violence, ridicule, intimidation, extortion, harassment and rudenpfoKhe or obscene language, with enforcement based on a principle of zero tolerance." According to Pona, "We would be less dian honest putting it to the public as being better dian any other school." The school will have a dress code, but Pona says that as far as she knows a dress code and a policy of zero tolerance already exist. Other trustees would like to have a board in-service to look at the option of a school within a school. Donna Gittens wants to know if only half die school will have a dress code enforced on them, and if only half will be under the policy of zero tolerance. During die meeting, board chair Linda Moir had to remind everyone that die board is only receiving the proposal for information and will have time to ask questions and get answers. Denny Ross said that he would like-.to have some polling done of students as to how diey feel about the issue, and input from all parents, not just "representative" ones. The Langley Teachers Federation is upset widi the proposal as welf, saying that they were not asked for input in die development of this proposal, and they want to know how it got so far without staff input. They also want to know how the decision was made to have the program at Mountain, and the impact it will have on programs already running in the school, such as special needs children, gifted children and ESL programs. Mountain Secondary principal Jim Ketdewell said in an interview Tuesday diat, since the proposal was not generated by die school, but by a committee of parents, diere was no basis for a discussion with staff. He does say however diat he will now be having discussions with his staff, in wliich he will be voicing his personal opinions. "We will be having wide ranging discussions with all partner groups involved sometime soon. We want to know what the students, staff, parents and community want from this proposal, but I cannot make any personal comments at this time because they may influence future discussions." The board will be taking a close look at the proposal and will be meeting, with representatives regarding it. A decision is expected on December 12.

The former Premier has begun a series of daily radio commentaries on Vancouver station AM 1040. The program's title is Premier Concerns. Dave Abbott, AM 1040 vice president said, "Mr. Vander Zalm's commentaries are broadcast at 12:15 and 6:15 pm, Monday through Friday. We expect that he will cover a wide range of issues." Topics, said Vander Zalm, are "all over the board - a good broad range of opinion". Early commentaries have ranged from taxation to trade with China, the Nanaimo Commonwealth Holding Society to "I told you so". "I imagine there'll be a certain amount of controversy," said Abbott.

Steve Ferguson. Township councilors had already given dieir blessing to an overall increase of 5.82 percent at dieir Nov. 14 meeting.

Instead, after our time of praise and worship had been led by Joy Penner, and after die children had gone to dieir Sunday School classes, we had a change of routine. The pulpit was moved away and a table was set witii two chairs facing tlie congregation. The table was draped with a large sign indicating that we were about to hear something from Radio Station A.S.K.-Y., "Tlie Clever Bible People". The two broadcasters who sat behind the microphones at tlie table bore a strong resemblance to our regular pastor and associate pastor but they introduced diemselves as Dr. Hank McMillan and Dr. Rob Penner. The latter, we were told, was a" guest from Radio Station W.A.Y.O.U.T. which broadcasts into an area called Left Field. He is Uie audior of a famous book called "Letters to Joy" which has sold at least two copis^s. To convince us that he is an audientic radio personality he told us (on several occasions) diat die program depended on financial support from die audience. We were treated to a question and answer show, in wliich the two experts read questions that had come in during die week. The first one came, diey said, from Mr. Hack: "Can smokers get to heaven?" Both speakers agreed diat die answer is yes. Not only is smoking permissible but it offers die advantage of earlier entry into heaven than would otherwise be possible. All of diat and a few odier questions in similar vein took about five minutes and die people appreciated die light humour. The questions then took a more serious turn and diey were indeed questions diat come in from the congregation during die week. Pastor McMillan had asked for questions after his sermon "Spiritual Warfare" die previous Time for carols ALDERGROVE - The United Church presents their second annual Cliristmas Carol Festival on Tuesday, Dec. 6 and VCednesday, Dec. 7, at 7 p.m. both nights. "Come and spend a most delightful and uplifting evening widi us as we hear all tlie local talented choirs and groups sing," said a church spokesperson. The evenings begin with a community carol sing led by Bill Wliyte, youth carol groups at 7:30 p.m., and adult carol groups foi-' lowing die 8:30 p.m. intermission. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and a freewill offering will be taken at intermission. The church is at 2623 - 272 Street. Working towards 'healthy community' By MONIQUE GALAZKA LANGLEY - The project, Strengthening . Partnerships... building safer and healthier communities in the Langleys, officially kicked off with a ceremonious signing of the declaration, Friday. The statement reads: "As community partnsers in the Langleys, it is our belief we have a responsibility and commitment to build and maintain a safe and healthy community for our children and our families. We encourage everyone who lives in our communities including our children, youth, parents, seniors, all cultural, ethnic and religious groups, service clubs, agencies and die business community to become actively involved in mobilizing our community strengths to find practical solutions. Through education and awareness, we can begin to prevent and reduce die prevalence of alcohol and other drug abuse in our communities. By strengthening families, promoting healthy lifestyle choices and linking our community resources, we can make a difference! Wfe, the undersigned, are pleased to be founding partners in this initiative. Dated the 18th of November, 1994, at Langley, British Columbia." The document was officially signed by many organizations including: Rotary International and Rotary Clubs of the Langleys, Langley Healthy Communities Committee, Langley RCMP, Langley City and Township, Langley School District #35 and die District Parent Advisory Council, the Kaiser Youth Foundation, Langley Lions Club, Langley Chamber of Commerce, Langley Youth Council, Langley Times, Langley Advance, Rogers Community 4, the Esteem Team, and the Ministry of Health-Alcohol and Drug Services. Police spokesman, Terry Kopan said it will be an ongoing process and many more are expected and invited to sign on as partners. In just five short mondis since die inception of the project Langley has mobilized key community partners towards the project, developing supportive partnerships witii many of the organizations listed above. The unique partnership with service clubs has mobilized the business community to provide ongoing and self-sustaining funding from within the community. One of die first action steps of the project will be the hiring of a coordinator for the project. Another will be a community direction-setting workshop to be held on November 29. Constable Kopan says diat die meeting will not be a public forum but will be for people who are willing to commit diemselves to working on the project. "It's not for talking about the problems, it's for planning actions to deal with die problem. We have a large cross-section of partners, and together, they have to decide how to attack the problem. "We may not see results for five years," he said, "but we will be working very hard towards drug and alcohol awareness at all levels, not just in schools, or in the business sector. We all have to work together and support each other at all levels to make (die program) work." The Langleys have accepted the challenge of becoming leading communities in building safer and healthier communities for our children and our families. Sunday. He and Rob Penner attempted to answer diem and then invited more questions. Question: Can we grow spiritually in tlie storms of life? Answer: Yes we can. Romans 5:3-5 tells us to rejoice in our suffering because it leads to perseverance, character and hope. James 1:2-3. is similar. Our spiritual growdi depends on our reaction to die pressure we face and our reaction will be conducive to growdi if our attitude is right before we face the storm. We can grow without stonns but we should realistically expect them anyway. The disciples were widi Jesus in a boat in a storni but they didn't react well. (Mark 4:35- 41). Paul was later in a boat in a storm and his reaction was very mature. (Acts 27). He was already spiritually strong. Reform congregation now has new pastor ALDERGROVE - The Canadian Reformed Church of Aldergrove has received and installed its first pastor, Dr. J. Boersma. Pastor and Mrs. J. Boersma, along widi dieir four children, come from Carman, Manitoba. The installation took place in die morning service of November 6. Tlie pastor's fadier from die Netherlands, spoke on Isaiah 52:7, "How lovely on die mountains are die feet of him who brings good tidings..." We were reminded diat a new pastor is a gift of God and he has been given • die task to keep the congregation faithful to God's ways. Many representatives from sister churches also spoke 'words of congratulations and welcome. In die afternoon service, Pastor Boersma held his inaugural sermon on the text of 1 Corindiians 1:1-9- "Each of us has been given spiritual gifts from God and we must not take them for granted but use them for mutual upbuilding." The next evening, an evening togedier widi die congregation was held, at whicli many words of welcome and gifts were received from our various Bible study societies and committees. The congregation presented the pastor and his wife widi a photo album complete with a page for .each family, so that they could soon start matching faces and names. It was a very enjoyable evening, and each one was' thanked for die wonderful welcome for they felt quite at home already.

Stafford Skyhawk, Todd Wilkinson wins a tipoff during Stafford's game against the Langley Secondary Saints. -Tim Attwood photo An entertaining evening ALDERGROVE - The . Western Line Painting Atom "A" Bruins hosted die Soudi Delta A team on Tuesday night. The game started off in a very serious fashion with bodi teams playing well. The game was very entertaining as die puck travelled from one end to die odier. The score remained at zero until halfway through the second period when Delta was able to slip die puck pat Clinton Pahlke, die Bniins goalie. The game stayed high paced but Delta was able to get two more quick goals to go ahead by three. The staii of the diird period saw Matdiew Keidi pass over to Danny Thomson who was able to beat die Delta goalie to put the Bniins on Uie board. Four minutes later, Thomson made a nice rush arid gave Jason McGovern die puck which he was able to put in die net. This brought die Aldergrove team within one and was die set up to a great finish. But Delta had plans of dieir own and soon scored to go ahead by two. The game was far from over and we were about to see some very intense hockey. Even widi die Bruins pulling die goalie in die last part of the game, die end result remained die same widi Delta winning by two. Next die Bniins headed over to Pitt Meadows to play the Port Coquidam Gaters. '. This game started off very rough and continued to get rougher. Normally I do not like to comment on the officials or die way Uiey handled die game because I realize how hard it is to see everydiing diat is happening on die ice, but diis was some of die worst I have seen in a long time. (The last tinie we were in Port Moody ,was as bad or worse). Our boys Were. being cross-checked from behind right in front of die referee and he would skate away or give one of die Bruins a penalty for some minor infraction. We are. lucky no one was hurt, but I wonder how long Minor Hockey will allow Uiis obvious one-sided officiating to go on. I say iff--the kids who are officiating can not or will not be fair dien diey should not be allowed to do the job. 1 diink it's time for adults who are in charge of die on-ice officials to start to take the responsibility and check up on what is happening before my son or' yours is seriously hurt or worse. It really makes me arjgry when this kind <_f stuff happens and. Uiere is nodiing we can do about it except pull our kids out of die sport. I diought diat I was beginning to understand diis sport but lately I have seen a lot of' coaches and officials acting like these games were being played for dieir benefit and not giving much diought to the boys or Uieir feelings. Most people Uiink Uiat when we complain it's . about winning or loosing but, I want' niy son to learns • sportsmanship, leadership, respect for coaches and officials as well as pride in belonging to a team and a community, and die only way he can get Uiis is from example. It's time we saw some good examples. Now back to die game before I say sometiiing I shouldn't and get myself in trouble. The PoCo team score five goals to die Bniins two. ^Kyle Olinek scored our first with Jake Boake assisting and Jason Garrison'got the odier and it was unassisted. While I am writing I would also like to say-how much work all die team puts into diese games. It seems Uiat only Uie boys involved in die scoring get mentioned but we all know that we need die support of die whole ■ team (goalie, defence, forwards and coaches). I heard a saying bnce and it goe^- likfe -this,. "Individual players make a .team, a team* does not make individual players." Keep up the good work, work as a team, and things will start to happen for you guys. Once again I want everyone to know Uiat diese are. only my opinions.

When outside temperatures begin to drop, tires should be checked at least once a month because cold weather reduces your tires' inflation pressure," according to the Tire Industry Safety Council. And driving underinflated tires causes tire tread to wear faster and unevenly. Underinflated tires also reduce ride performance, affect vehicle handling, and decrease your vehicle's fuel efficiency. A tire is considered significantly underinflated when it is four or more pounds below recommended air pressure. . Another good habit to continue in the winter is to check your tires for uneven wear patterns. Uneven wear may signal improper inflation pressure, misalignment, tire and wheel imbalance or suspension problems. Mechanical problems such as ■ misalignment in the front or rear end of. your car, improperly operating brakes or shock absorbers, bent wheels or 20 AUTOMOTIVE 2080 Trucks 1990 Tracker 4x4,5 spd, low km.clean, $7,500.

All these systems should be checked, by a qualified mechanic periodically, as specified by the vehicle owner's manual, whenever you have signs of trouble. Irregular tire wear often can be corrected by rotating your tires. Check your owner's manual for the appropriate rotation pattern for your vehicle. After rotation, adjust each tire's air pressure to the appropriate level for its new location, as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Additional winter driving tips: • Keep a bag of sand, salt, or even kitty litter to use under the wheels of the drive axle in case your car gets stuck. • Take it easy on wet roads. Stopping on ;i wet road can lake up to four times the normal distance on a dry road. As water accumulates on the road, tires with Z shallow tread tend to hydroplane as sgee|i increases, particularly at 40 mph. • Look for built-in low tread wear indicators called "wear bars" (narrow strips of-smooth rubber across the tread). When these appear, it's fime to replace your tires. For a free pamphlet on maintenance of you car'_)yide control system, send a business-sized, self-addressed, stamped envelope to Car Care Council.

Lit (NU)—If you've been putting off routine car maintenance, think again. A properly maintained and operated vehicle runs more efficiently, is safer, lasts longer, commands a higher resale value and will help the environment. The following tips are from the experts at the non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), the group that tests and certifies automotive technicians. • Keep your engine tuned up. A misfiring spark plug can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent. Replace filters and fluids as recommended in your owner's manual. You'll help reduce air pollution. • Check your tires for proper inflation and alignment. Underinflated or poorly aligned tires force the engine to work harder, wasting fuel. Properly maintained tires last longer, saving you money and lessening the burden at landfills. • Properly dispose of used motor oil, antifreeze/coolant and old batteries. Never dump oil, antifreeze or other auroineri\>e«^htkts--4>is-.tlte— ground, in streams or sewers. Many repair facilities accept these items; otherwise, call your local government for recycling sites. ii If you are not a "do-it-yourselfer," find a good technician. Ask friends and associates for recommendations. Check the reputation of the repair shop with your local consumer group. Look for certified technicians. ~ASE-certified auto technicians have passed national competency exams in specialties such as engine performance and air conditioning. Repair facilities with ASE technicians usually display the ASE blue and white sign, while the technicians wear shoulder insignia and carry personalized credentials. • Keep your air conditioner in top condition and have it serviced only by a technician certified competent to handle/recycle refrigerants. Most air conditioners contain ozone-depleting chemicals. Improper service can cause some of these chemicals to leak into the atmosphere. • Observe speed limits. Mileage decreases above 55 mph. • Drive gently. Avoid sudden accelerations and jerky stops. Use cruise control on highways to maintain a steady pace. • Avoid excessive idling. Shut off the engine wh-ile waiting for friends and family. • Remove excess items from the vehicle. Less weight means better mileage. Store luggage/cargo in the trunk rather than on the roof to reduce air drag. • pi.-m- trips Co.q__Mitfc_--C~ilt''1y errands to eliminate unnecessary driving. Travel when traffic is light to avoid stop-and-go conditions. Join a car pool. Good driving habits and regular vehicle maintenance will help you. your car and the environment.
