MM-J Legislative Library Parliament Buildings Victoria, B.C. V8V1X4 85.4 SCRD reconsiders Former prime minister Joe Clark spoke to a large group of Sunshine Coast residents at the Sechelt Indian Band Hall last Wednesday. - ���% -sandy Kmcnonphoio On visit to Coast Joe Clark a hit! by John Burnside Former Conservative prime minister Joe Clark flew into Porpoise Bay last week by way of Tyee Air on the first stop on a preelection Western swing on behalf of his party. He was greeted in Sechelt by a full-house of apparently enthusiastic supporters in the Sechelt Indian Band Hall. The fact that Mr. Clark's arrival was somewhat delayed and that local Conservative candidate in the upcoming election, Mike Hicks, was weather-bound at Sointula and unable to get to the meeting did nothing to diminish the warmth of the reception accorded the sixteenth prime minister of Canada. The polish acquired in Mr. Clark's long-years of public service was apparent as he warmed up the crowd with full-blooded partisan attacks on the selection of John Turner as the leader of the Liberal For Gibsons party, the policies followed by the Liberal party, and particularly with a vigorous- assault on the role played by the NDP in recent years in federal politics, apparently with the view to unseating incumbent NDP member Ray Skelly. The former prime minister was particularly cutting as he addressed the question of the increasing number of Crown corporations in federal politics and obviously struck a sympathetic chord with his audience when he decried the growth of 'big government'.. There was absolutely no evidence of any lingering resentment on Mr. Clark's part of his recent loss of the leadership of the Conservative party to Brian Mulroney. Referring to the present Conservative leader by his first name, the former Conservative leader drew parallels to the smalltown beginnings of himself and Mulroney, Clark in Alberta and the present leader of the Conservatives on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River in the province of Quebec. Referring to the recent visit of Mulroney to Washington Clark said, "It is not very realistic that we are going to have much independence from the U.S. given the inter-connected nature of our economies. If we can't have independence, obviously what we must have is influence. Our ability to speak frankly to the Americans as the best friend they have has been compromised in recent years by the Trudeau government. That trust has to be restored." The former prime minister commented on a wide range of political issues, answered questions from the floor, and concluded his visit to Sechelt with a 'walkabout', mingling with the audience for brief personal interactions. Face lift funds sought by Fran Burnside Gibsons Council is expected to this week ratify the recommendation of its planning committee to proceed with municipal improvements in the harbour area under Downtown Revitalization project funding. The town is eligible to receive up to $200,000 in revitalization funds, and must itself pay 25 per cent of the cost of projects undertaken. A 'shopping list' of improvements which planning staff have recommended for this phase totals $120,000 and includes the following: general curbing and sidewalk construction; a sea-walk from the marina to Gramma's Pub with planters, flower boxes, picnic tables and benches; upgrading Ar mour's Beach with sand, steps, planters, wall along edge of pull- off and opening of washrooms; screening Shell oil tanks with cedar; screening face of Johnson block and paving area to increase parking; up-grading bus shelter; in Omega area, extending sidewalk, backfilling parkade shoulder, curbing and street shoulder clean-up; general beach upgrading and cleanup; planters added to various other areas; renovation and landscaping of Pioneer Park. The town's portion of financial responsibility is more or less fulfilled through its undertaking of renovations in Pioneer Park, for which it has already allocated funds in its 1984 budget totalling $25,000. Town planner Rob Buchan pointed out to council's planning committee that the lower village area has been assessed as 'substandard', and that these projects are recommended for general municipal upgrading of a downgraded area. The committee's unanimous recommendation was that council borrow $90,000 in Downtown Revitalization funds over a three- year period, at an interest rate of six per cent. As the town's budget already includes a short-term loan payment which expires this year, the new loan should not necessitate any increase in taxes to cover it. When this stage of improvements is completed, council will still be eligible for the balance of $110,000 in revitalization funds. Tyson Road campsite Tyson Road resident Michel Baecke told regional board directors that he was "totally appalled and utterly surprised that you have ignored your own by-law" in recommending against Baecke's proposal to use his property for a campsite/guest farm. The recommendation of the planning committee had not yet been ratified by the hoard, and is therefore not yet final. Baecke's property is in the Agricultural Land Reserve, zoned Agricultural Rural 3, and Baecke M informed the board that, according M >'f_" Section 44 of the Agricultural 0%gLqm& Commission Act, he may use i ;> his land for both a guest ranch and ��������� for open land recreational use, including a campsite. He also quoted from regional zoning Bylaw 96, indicating that a campsite Was an acceptable use for a part of his 2.S hectare parcel. "My plan has been formulated to fit in under both the regional board by-law and the ALC Act," said Baecke. "When I bought my land I referred to the by-law to see what my business options would be. You are interfering with the proper use of my land." On the advice of planners tue planning committee had recommended against Baecke's proposal because there is agriculture in the immediate area, and it was felt a campground "could cause conflicts with current or future agricultural practices as well as set a precedent for similar activities and potential conflicts". Planners had also noted that proposed zoning by-law 264 would render a campground in that area non-conforming. Baecke's original proposal called for 35 campsites, and according to the ALC Act not more than five per cent of this property - 0.3 acres - can be altered by paving, structures, earthworks (septic fields) or anything that alters the quality of the top soil. During the planning committee's original deliberations, members seemed to think that the 35 campsites would have to be within 0.3 acres, which is not the case, as a campsite does not alter the top soil. Baecke has now downscaled his campground to 14 sites, based on the cost and amount of land which would be required for septic fields. As planners were not available when Baecke make his presentation to the board, it was suggested that he consult further with planners, and the board postponed its decision. The board does not give approval in ALR matters, but does make recommendations to the land commission. SCRD protests With more. and. more evidence <��ming to light of the cancer and birth defect causing aspects of her- bicides - and many other commonly used and available chemicals -the Sunshine Coast Regional Board at its last meeting decided that, "If there is any-action this board can take, we should take it." The granting or denial of herbicide permits is out of the board's jurisdiction, but "We have to make our voice heard," stated area F director John Shaske. It was also noted that the board -has a past letter on. file from-B;C. Hydro indicating that the board would be notified if sprayingMvas being done, and that notification has not been occurring. The motion passed by the board stated that a letter is to be sent to B.C. Hydro, the Ministry of Forests and the Ministry of the Environment, informing them that the regional board does not want any kind of herbicide spraying or 'hack and squirt' programmes to take place on the Sunshine Coast. r Elphie to get new principal The Board of School Trustees has instructed the superintendent of schools to initiate the policy process that will identify a new principal for Elphinstone secondary school, effective January 1985. Principal Barrie Boulton has decided to pursue a personal objective to return to classroom duties as soon as possible. In the interim July 1, 1984 to December 31, 1984 David Stigant, currently vice-principal has been assigned as acting principal and will assume full responsibility for the school. Important hearings The public is reminded of the important public hearings scheduled for next week to discuss the SCRD's sweeping new zoning bylaw 264. Hearings will be held in Gibsons elementary school at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, July 10, and in Sechelt elementary school at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, July 11. Detailed maps showing how properties will be affected are on display at the regional board office in Sechelt for public viewing. Approximately 40 residents were on hand last Friday to support the Sunshine Coast Peace Committee in re-erecting the Nuclear Free Zone sign at the Langdale Ferry terminal. -j���,���, Bm^ Pi,,.�� ���.-. Coast News, July 2,1984 The Sunshine Coast Regional Board is to be commended for the stand it has taken to inform B.C. Hydro and the Ministries of Forests and Environment that it does not want any kind of herbicide spraying or 'hack and squirt' programs to take place on the Sunshine Coast. But one does not have to be a skeptic to fear the message will fall on deaf ears, and that regional concerns are of little interest to provincial officials, other than to be ridden over. As an example, an editorial in last week's Vancouver Sun told how a sub-division planned for Saltspring Island Harbour contravened the community plan, which citizens and local officials had drawn up to maintain the rural charm of their area and to prevent city-style development. The planned development had one lot of 180 hectares, and 25 lots of 0.4 hectares, which in legality conformed to the zoning by-law which called for an average lot size of 8 hectares. But such small lot sizes violated in the extreme the community plan. To the developer's rescue galloped the provincial government. To quote the Sun, "By order-in-councU it changed the strata tide regulations of the ministry of consumer and corporate affairs to remove a developer's obligation to comply with community plans." At the same board meeting which asked that no further herbicide use be undertaken on the Sunshine Coast, directors also ratified the hiring of a temporary position of a planning technician "for the specific purpose of advancing the settlement (community) plans,...for as long as it is cost-effective to the advancement of settlement plans." This board and each regional area has placed great store in the value of community plans, and any new zoning issues - including proposed new zoning by-law 264 - have taken into account the preferred settlement patterns which each area has been developing over the last number of years. Citizens of all political stripes must be highly offended that such decisions made from Victoria can so callously disregard choices made locally concerning issues which affect Victoria not at all, but which can drastically alter the very face and style of local communities. Fran Burnside Praise deserved The efforts of the Gibsons Garden Club to help beautify the historic heart of town should be a source of pride and inspiration to us all, wherever we may live on the Sunshine Coast. There they were, down on hands and kneew turning newly renovated Pioneer Park into a blaze of blossoming colour. They had worked with town officials to determine what kinds of plants and trees would be best suited for the park, and then again volunteered their labour to put them in. The garden club deserves the well-earned praise and thanks of all of us. The Cowrie Street merchants of Sechelt are also to be congratulated for the lively, festive air they have given to the village with the colourful banners and pennants they have strung across the street and along their shops. The mood created is that 'things are happening here', and is no doubt appreciated by both residents and tourists alike., 5 YEARS AGO Environment and Land Use chairman Rate Mair says there will be no more public hearings on the controversial Cheekye-Duns- muir hydro line despite continuing local protests.

Over the years, a progression of tow-boats, steamers and motor vessels provided passenger and freight service. Vehicular transport remained cumbersome, however, until the middle of this century. Then, in 1951, Blackball Ferries inaugurated a car ferry run bet ween Horeshoe Bay and Gibsons Landing. The MV Quillayute was, assigned to the Howe Sound crossing. The wooden craft, seen here heading for its berth off the public wharf at Gibsons, carried a maximum of 60 vehicles. In 1958, the British Columbia Ferry CorJ poration, which had absorbed the Blackball service, built a terminal at Langdale. Gordon Ballentine photo. L.R. Peterson ., Musings John Burnside I'll be marking my thirtieth anniversary this month. I could be wrong, for certainly I don't have a 19S4 calendar at my fingertips, but it seems to me that July 3 fell on a Tuesday back in 1954, as it does this year. On that day I took flight on a TCA Super-Constellation from Prestwick Airport-just a few-,, miles from.my home bound to join' ^ an older brother in Montreal. Mt.was a first,flight";.fdr rjie^jn . fact'"("was the first! flight "'for anyone in my family. I made mucii of that fact on way to the airport for, truth to tell, I was nervous. Just three years before a plane had come down in a farmer's field just four miles outside the airport and 1 had ridden down to see the wreckage on my bike with a couple of friends. It was the only time our little part of the country had made the national newspapers. There were lots of people killed and diamonds were found, apparently being smuggled from Amsterdam. I remember being amazed how much of the countryside contained bits of aeroplane. I drove past the scene of the accident on July 3, 1954, and I was going to get into a plane. I boasted all the way about how I was the family's first to mask my nerves. We had an hour to wait at the airport and my Uncle Will rented a little plane and he and my mother took a 15 minute flight around the airport to deny me my primacy. It was a surprise coup of the older, stay at home generation. We landed first for refuelling at Gander in Newfoundland and in the waiting room 1 noticed how long the cigarette butts were in Canada. In the middle of the day in the blazing heat of a Montreal Canadian anniversary July on Wednesday* July 4,1 came down the exit stairs in a heavy navy blue, double breasted suit, blinking and wary like every immigrant that ever was. Canada seemed., the promised land. Everyone had jobs, everyone had cars. Within eight days I was at work and within two years I was renting my own place and driving my own car. I was enthralled with njjy jiew country,, at its vastn^ss, at "its possibilities, and' even "at its history. r I couldn't understand how Canadians professed to find their history boring. Fur-clad men who crossed the continent in canoes to explore and trade with Indians, battles over territory and the whisky trade were everything a boy's imagination could ask. Then there was the fact of the French in Canada. I had known that Montreal was the next biggest city in the world after Paris, but that didn't prepare me for the experience of walking miles along Notre Dame Street and hearing not one word of English. For me, it just added to the romance and the excitement of the new country. Thirty years later I can say that I have sampled the country. For the first 15 I seemed constantly on the move, travelling vast distances and working in a wide variety of places, but still I have only sampled the land. Its vastness and its possibilities still stir the imagination, but this is a sadder, less self-confident ,Canada than the one I found 30 years ago. It marks its 117th birthday as I mark my thirtieth birthday apparently mired in economic difficulties and regional rivalries. But the possibilities and the vastness are not changed even if the way ahead seems less assured than it did 30 years ago. Happy Birthday, Canada, we yetM.be worthy of geography. "MM MM.

Hubert Evans From Mostly Coast People Harbour Publishing, Madeira Park, B.C. ������"M.'^.vi X '������ I Maryanne's viewpoint Hundred years of progress? by Maryanne West All the fancy foot work going on while the U.S. Democratic Party makes up its mind whether the country is ready to accept a woman as vice-president begins to look rather silly in the light of the fact that a woman ran for the White House job exactly 100 years ago, in 1884! Her name was Belva Ann Lockwood, nee Bennett, and by all accounts she was quite some lady. She was born in Royal ton, New York, on October 24, 1830 so she was 54 when she ran for president, the nominee of the National Equal Rights Party. Left a widow with a child to support'she taught school for $3 a week which-Was less than half the salary paid Mo the male teachers. Complaining to the school trustees got her nowhere and the, wife of the Methodist minister told her, "I cannot help you, and you cannot help yourself for it is the way of the world"! After the Civil War she was accepted as a student by the National University Law School but when she graduated in 1873 they refused to give her a diploma. This time she went to the top and appealed to the president of the United States and eventually the university came through. The next hurdle was to find a court which would accept a woman lawyer but after some refusals she was called to the bar by the District Court in Washington D.C; and in 1878 became the first woman to practise before the Supreme Court. As a lawyer Mrs. Lockwood worked indefatigably for women's . rights. She helped draft legislation to provide women in the District of Columbia with equal property and child guardian rights. She drafted amendments authorizing women's suffrage to the statehood bills of Oklahoma, Arizona and New Mesico. In 1884, she ran for the presidency against Republican James Blaine land Democrat Grover Cleveland, neither of whom had untarnished reputations. The press of course was at a. loss how to judge. a woman's abilities and so concen trated on her looks:- "Mrs. Lockwood is a pleasant featured lady, appearing to be about 50 years old. She is above medium stature, and her dark brown hair is just beginning to be streaked with gray. She was attired in figured black silk and wore a wide lace collar the ends of which were fastened in front by a brooch the size of a sardine box"! Or started rumours that she was a divorcee. She met this one head on telling reporters:- "It might be well to mention that both my husbands died natural deaths as some papers have said that I am a divorced woman, and while I can conceive of a divorced woman being as perfectly pure and reputable as any other woman still I prefer to be known as a widow." She is described as an eloquent orator and in a speech in New York she spelled out what she believed in:- "I am an unswerving friend of the labouring man, but I want a platform broad enough for the labouring woman, broad enough to take in every adult woman in the land, a platform in which the rights of women will b4 respected as well as the rights o| man; a platform on which justice as well as courtesy will not only b�� expected but exacted". f Apparently she was not the leasS intimidated by the odds against her and when a reporter asked hef if she expected to be elected, she* replied, "Not this year, but I exj pect to be elected some time. And she did run again in 1888. Ir 1888 Mrs. Lockwood was al delegate to the Universal Peace Congress in Paris and in 1892 wa a member of the Internationa Peace Bureau in Ben Switzerland. She was commission! ed by the State Department tt represent the U.S. at the Congressl of Charities and Corrections, in? Geneva in 1896 and elected prest! dent of the Women's Nation^ Press Association in 1901. SI also served on the nominating! committee for the Nobel: Peace Prize. She died in Washington D.C. ir May 1917. One cannot help wondering what she would thinl about women in politics in 1984. *P@vel��i"#ers emnn&t afford flias Coast News, July 2,1984 :3. ���tor: e: Last week's "Waste plan need- d"-'| JJohn, John, John...

The event for the Sunshine Coast will be held at Cliff Gilker Park on Saturday, July 7 at 1 p.m. One year ago on July 7, 1983, the provincial government introduced in the legislature the now infamous 26 Bills. With the passage of the legislation, the Social Credit government has: fired thousands of public sector employees; cut scores of social services - mainly affecting women and children; abolished rent controls and the Office of the Rentalsman; replaced the Human Rights Code; slashed spending on education; amended the Labour Code; reduced community involvement programs; cut assistance to many other groups. All in the name of "restraint". Solidarity was- formed as an immediate response to the legislation. All sectors of labour, community service groups, women's groups, social service groups, renters' associations, senior citizens, and a multitude of others joined forces to protest the government's actions. Solidarity became the Solidarity Coalition. Massive protest rallies were held in Vancouver where as many as 53,000 people gathered to let Premier Bennett know we didn't approve, of the legislation. Other demonstrations were held throughout B.C. But did the government respond? And is the government restraining itself? NO!

Doris Fuller, Secretary S.C. Solidarity Coalition Bodt belated Editor: Fran Burnside's comment titled "Justification please" in the June 25, 1984 issue gave me a real chuckle. In this column Fran Burnside questions the large increase in the 1984 Gibsons municipal taxes and specially those in parks and recreation. Fran feels that the tax- , payers should get an explanation from the Gibsons Council as to why this large increase came during a time of high unemployment and a general sick economy. May I suggest to Fran, the next time she sees her husband, who by the way is an alderman on the Gibsons Council and the deputy chairman of parks and recreation, she should ask him to give her some of this justification and publish it in this newspaper. It was John Burnside who voted in favour of this ** large tax increase and pushed for the huge capital increase in the parks and recreation budget, e.g. "the Bubble". During the 1983 election for Gibsons Council, it was John Burnside's platform for council to be more open, no more secrets, and fully accountable to the Gibsons taxpayers. The Gibsons taxpayers bought this platform and election promise, hook, line and sinker and voted John into office. Soon after his election John declared it would be a conflict of interest for him to comment on council procedures in his newspaper. Why did he not realize this before the election? This year there has been very little in-depth news from the Gibsons Council in the Coast News and, as usual, the taxpayers are kept in the dark. Going to council meetings does not help, because most items are referred to committees held at an impossible time for the working taxpayer. No it is the same old story, participation by those who pay the taxes is not invited by this council. Therefore, Fran, the next time you see Alderman Burnside ask him to give you and us some ' 'Justification please''. George Bodt Editor's Note: I thought I did just that in my editorial. F.B. Bloomin' miracle Bditdr:-;;;;;'';;���'.;���.��� ,,,,.,;,/: .,' ";;nr 's While it may have seemed fuWan instant miracle as bright flowers suddenly blossomed from the bare stoney dirt in Pioneer Park on Friday, June 29, many many hours of planning and back breaking effort went into the preparation and building of the planters. The town of Gibsons, Katimavik, the Chamber of Commerce and Gibsons Garden Club have all been ac-. lively involved for months in the re-construction of this park. A holiday spirit was evident Friday with the delivery of a truck load of plants, shrubs and trees, plus all the necessary nutrients for turning stoney dirt into good garden loam. Members of the garden club joined, town employees and the Katimavik group in the park to work on the beds and set in the plants. An impromptu picnic resulted when Truffles and the Landing General Store brought over ice cream cones and coffee for the workers. Future weeks will see further development of stairways, walkways and the erection of the tourist building and I'm sure those involved will all find the friendly spirit of co-operation and the happy experience of working together as we did. Thank you everyone. Dory Anne Robertson Gibsons Garden Club Physiotherapy back Editor: The Coast-Garibaldi Health Unit is pleased to announce the recommencement of the physiotherapy program.

JUNE 1979 Remember the old brown house where the Creekhouse Restaurant is now? Hard to believe but it's been gone five years! The Roberts Creek Fire Department burned it down for training and to clear the lot for building. It was quite a blaze. \\ That same night there was a log spill off /the mouth of the creek. Local salvagers put on a good show of authentic beachcombing as they worked to retreive the $1 million worth of- logs before the tides scattered them further. Also in June 1979, Roberts Creekers viewed the re-routing of Lockyer Road with suspicion, were petitioning the highways department for speed bumps on the hill down to the wharf, and were complaining about dogs on the beach.

Somehow when you write a local column you are at the receiving end of criticism if you spell a name incorrectly or give a wrong date or some such dreaded error, so it is particularly nice to get the odd compliment. The Halmoon Bay Brownie Pack sent a lovely card which they had made themselves and which was signed by each Brownie. Thank you girls, it was delightful to receive this. Another lovely card was received from the parents of the Halfmoon Bay school children and there was one from the Sunshine Coast Cancer Campaign.

But when the weather man says "unsettled" and "showers" and then we're flattened to the ground by the torrential rain I think it's a bit much. I spent most of the "unsettled" part of the week rushing out to my pet jungle to pick currants.. Some of them I used to make that traditional English dessert.

My thanks to John Burnside for writing last week's Shop Talk, due to my absence. I was more than pleased with the manner in which he addressed the need for a solution to the chronic unemployment of our youth. I watched the ceremonial splendor of the graduating class of '84 in full colour on Channel 10. It was a beautiful performance, which went off like clock-work, and included some excellent speech-making. I liked them all, but I was particularly impressed with*the remarks of June Wilson on the subject of "pride". It was a message well received and worth everyone's consideration. I would like to see It published. by Bill Edney As I saw the beautiful young people come down the aisle, one by one, my own grandson Lance Lacey included, I was filled with pride, and a sense of nostalgia. To a youngster, time is seemingly everlasting, it passes so slowly for them. To those of us whose time is rushing past all too swiftly, we can look upon a graduating class, and remember it as only yesterday when they were toddlers. If I allow my mind to wander as each family name is mentioned I can well remember these young adults when they came into our store with mom and dad. I keep reminding myself each year, that it was in 1970 when my family and I moved to Gibsons to take over Ken Watson's Foodland. To me it seems like yesterday, and yet most of those graduating in the Class of '84 had not yet started their schooling. S If I may be permitted to add to the various expressions of good will and advice, I have only this to say: "St is never too late!" As I say this I think back to my own life and think of the things I might have done, or done differently, had I heeded the thought that it's never too late to undertake a worthwhile project, whatever that might be. Many a senior citizen will, I am sure, support this sentiment. For many seniors have in the swift passage of time realized that it is still not too late to undertake programs of education, learning, new crafts, etc, etc. I urge those who graduated last week to continue in the learning of specialized skills that will equip them for gainful employment. Jobs will open up for those who are well trained, and who possess the drive to overcome obstacles. "REALWIN" K.L.D.

We return to Hugh's house, thank him and Muriel for their kindness and take our leave. Next stop...Toronto. The freeway situation in the Ontario metropolis proves .equal in complexity to any of its American counterparts, with the exception of Los Angeles. Again we have people to stay with - in this instance, my niece, Cindy and her boyfriend Jim. Again, we don't have the slightest idea which exit to take. Yvonne picks one at random and we plunge into the city. Luck is with us and we find we have come out in the right general area. In fairly short order, we are ringing their doorbell. Cindy and Jim are pleased to see us. Inevitably, another impromptu party results. We drink wine and listen to Joe Turner, Jimmy Witherspoon and blues other greats till long into the night. September 23, 1982. Jim and Cindy live on the second floor of an old house, next door to a colony of rather worldly monks and very close to the University of Toronto. Yvonne and I are pleased to learn the latter fact as we have some research to do there. After breakfast, I phone Earle Birney and arrange to meet him on Friday. Earle had known Wilson well and corresponded with him over a 15 year period. These letters are now in the Special Collections at the university and we head over there to check them out: In the huge, echoing well of the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library, we locate the Birney file and pore excitedly over the letters and other related material. It is fascinating to follow this dialogue between the renowned poet and the devious old gangster. Wilson may have had small respect for the law but he had a lifelong fascination with writers and artists. Earle Birney, a Real Writer, was obviously one of his great heroes. Some of his letters verge on the sycophantic. Still, as with everything else Wilson did, there was also an ulterior motive.

Some of his earlier work derives from the human figure and he is obviously indebted to Henry Moore in his handling of large convex and concave masses. The surfaces of his highly modelled and textured works show his familiarity with the Rodin as well. After a 25-year gap we are presented with sculpture which is consistent in imagery and style with his earlier work. These pieces, organic in feeling, are particularly successful. Tibetan Woman and Figure Seated, both executed this year, are visually satisfying. His large wooden piece Talking Couple also exemplifies an understanding of three dimensional space. These recent works are reminiscent of the painter Miro's abstract fantasies and have the humourous quality . found in the sculpture of Max Ernst. His Talking Woman series is delightful. This is good sculpture. The eclectic styles and contemporary handling of the medium should appeal to a large segment of our community. The Robert and John Clothier exhibition is being held over until July 15. Hours at the Arts Centre during July and August will be 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday and 1-4 p.m. Sundays. Critic to attend festival by Leslie MacFarlane Ellison Eleanor Wachtel will be coming to the Festival of the Written Arts August 11 and her talk will be titled, aptly, "The Perfect Critic Would Be God". *Quoted from Eric Bentley. A writer, broadcaster and critic, Ms Wachtel is one of those rare personalities who combines high intelligence with wit and humour. Eleanor Wachtel is the West Coast contributing editor for Books in Canada and book reviewer for the Vancouver Sun, Quill & Quire and Saturday Night. She is also editor of Room of One's Own as well as theatre reviewer for CBC radio. Ms Wachtel writes, "Although I am more a commentator on the arts than a perpetrator, I've run into the same sorts of problems in terms of market and profitablity. But the real trouble is how to keep from snacking excessively when I've come home from the theatre and have to prepare a review for the following morning. A second hurdle (also yet to be achieved) is talking slower when you're being paid by the minute."

This event turned out to be one of the largest gatherings in B.C. The 12 attending pipe bands and colour parties, mainly from the lower mainland and Vancouver Island, marched off individually from the agricultural grounds to the mall parking lot. The bands then mustered and played as a massed band back to the agricultural grounds. What a thrilling sight for spectators to see the massed iband in full dress unifom, marching down Canada Avenue* 12 abreast - well over 120 pipers, followed by a row of 12-strong base drummers leading the over 80 snare and tenor drummers. Bringing up the rear were the 11 colour parties representing the individual bands.' This was the first, time the Sechelt Legion Pipe Band has entered a Highland Gathering, the band was very popular with spectators in the individual march, mainly due to being the only band with young pipers and drummers. The competitions started after the opening ceremonies. Pipers Danny Bist, Denise Foxall and Seru Mblidegei, drummers, Janine Gardner and David Beecham entered individual competitions. Geoff DuRose won second place in 'tl k 1 the Drum Major competition well as receiving third place "Best Drum Major on Parade*^ The Colour Party, Ron Bigg& Charlie Stephens, Frank Bonin an| Jim Ireson were also in c6mpe||: tion. Don Kennaugh, base dru *"' mer, placed second in the Base Drummer on Parade". In tr|��; Highland Games competition Go|T die Ross, piper, won second pla in the Sheaf Toss.

With the under growth removed by those ardent volunteer men and the out of bound's stakes now installed the entrance to the course is much improved. Many thanks to Roy Taylor for the sturdy benches he is installing at different spots around the area and to Bill Bader with his volunteer crew for the work being completed at the lake bordering M and #5 fairways. Thursday Morning Seniors were' pretty well rained out, although a few brave souls ventured out to test their skills. It's good to hear of our golfing members continuing to do well in various tournaments around the different areas in and out of the province. Al Dean once again won first place in his age group of the B.C. Seniors' Golf Assocation. In the Monday Mixed Twilight the four-member teams had another hazard added to the ninth green. For talking while on the green Jean Mcllwaine, Lyle Brock, Jo Emerson and Walter Falafir had three strokes added to their scores to win the "Gabby" award quite ?' handily. The leader for the Marg Langdale award after one day's play is Ellen Brock with a net 33 and in second spot is Isobel Draper witha low net 37. The junior club championship under the sponsorship of the "Cedars" was held on Friday. After a very close match Erik Wagman, junior club champion for a number of years, narrowly defeated Brian Gill for this year's honours. The match was decided on the eighteenth hole. During the round there was never more than one stroke between the two players. Erik shot a good round for a 75 gross and Brian a 76 for Sergeant Wayne Bonn presents a cheque for $300 to John Hind- Smith and Tk/ry Neill of Gibsons Wildlife Club, to be used for salmon enhancement. The proceeds are from the RCMP Salmon Derby held last February. -Fran BunuMe photo Bicycle registration The Gibsons RCMP has been involved in a Bicycle Registration Program, with the Summer Canada Student Employment Program. |b your car begging for a second chance?

Coast News, July2,1984 "Spring is the beginning of all new life. This is the beginning of ours." A fitting theme for Elphinstone's 1984 graduation ceremonies. -FrwBanuidephoio Congratulations graduates "If a dump is closed, it's closed. If you open it four times during the year, people see it as open and you invite abuse." Gibsons alderman John Burnside was stating to the Sunshine Coast Regional Board his views on the Gibsons Dump, closed four- years ago for health reasons. People, including contractors, are continuing to dump refuse there, and the board has decided to get tough about it. "We have inherited the Langdale Ferry Terminal," informed board chairman Jim Gurney, referring to the many blue concrete blocks now at the dump. "And those huge tree stumps weren't brought in by pick-up tracks." Gurney felt that many people benefit from the four "Clean-up Weeks" during the year when burnable refuse is allowed to be dumped, and that the many should not be deprived of that because of the abuses of the few. The board passed a motion that a by-law be drafted fining to the maximum amount possible, $5,000, anyone caught dumping at the Gibsons Dump at other than specified times, and that a reward be offered for those reporting offenses resulting in conviction. Following a very beautiful candlelight ceremony Chatelech's grade 12 students received their graduation certificates then passed over the bridge and through the arbour, symbolizing their entrance into the adult WOrld. " ��� Sandy Emerson phofo At the Arts Centre Carter donates his sculpture The Sunshine Coast Arts Council is pleased to announce that the eminent sculptor, Dudley C. Carter of Gibsons, B.C. and Bellevue, Washington, has kindly donated his sculpture "Sea Lion & Sea Horse" to the Arts Centre. At the time of Mr. Carter's 1982 one-man show at the Arts Centre, a fund was started to purchase the sculpture. In a conversation last week with Mr. Carter in Gibsons, the sculptor suggested that he would like to donate the work to the Arts Centre, in recognition of the important work done by the Arts Centre. Mr. Carter's gesture also recognized the financial difficulties being experienced by the Centre, since only one third of the purchase price has been raised to date. Mr. Carter who was born on May 6, 1891, has recently been honoured by the State of Washington Centennial Hall of Honour for the year 1989.. One hundred Washington citizens have been selected. Among these are the singer Bing Crosby; the suffragette Emma Smith DeVoe; Senator Henry Jackson; General J. Wain- wright; zoologist Trevor Kincaide; aviator Clyde Pangborn who was the first to fly non-stop from Japan to the U.S.A.; painter Mark Tobey and Dudley Carter. While this kind of recognition has as yet not happened in Canada for native son Carter, it is hoped that the permanent presence of this work, which is now assured, will be an inspiration to the entire community. Our Town PART 5: WIFE BATTERING Many options are open to women involved in a violent situation. In the case of severe beating or child abuse, the police can be called in. Their involvement at this time is for the purpose of peace keeping, for the purpose of making sure that the violence stops. All they can do is to remove the abused persons from their residence if they are willing. If charges are laid, depending on the seriousness of the assault, the batterer can be arrested and placed on a bond to stay away from the victim until the matter can be resolved in court. The police cannot remove a victim of battering if the victim does not want to go. In a case when a mother has already left her home and she wishes to retrieve her children, unless proof can be found that the children are in danger, the police cannot remove the children from the home. Both battered women and the police find this situation very frustrating but the law regards the mother and children's situation as two separate entities with evidence needed for both situations before they can legally act. Another option available is the Transition House. The Transition House is a safe place for women and their children in a crisis situation. All dealings with the Transition House are kept fully confidential. Trained and experienced personnel are available at all times.

Counselling is given and assistance from the Ministry of Human Resources, the courts, the Mental Health Centre and Al- Anon is available. A 24 hours Crisis Line provides advice, counselling and arrangements can be made through the line for a woman to be removed from a violent home situation. The Transition House has been operating at a 75 per cent to 100 per cent occupancy rate, about three to four families at one time. A family's stay at the House is where the most help can be provided. Once the decision is made to leave a bad situation, the worst is over and steps in a positive direction can be made. The police are only involved if charges of assault have to be laid or when protection is required to prevent further attacks. It will take a long time to change the attitudes of men and women so that battering situations cease to occur. Education of the public on the suject of family violence and its causes and better services for the ' victims of family violence are the only alternatives. New laws regarding family violence are badly needed and new revisions are already before the attorney general to assist the victims of violence and to clarify the powers needed by police and the courts who deal with the problem of family violence. Next week, we will talk with people in Our Town who have been involved in a violent family situation. Please write to us with your comments, opinions and insights on this very important subject.

Assuming, of course, our area can accommodate them. They each need an open field, stage, tents, and accommodation and eating places for both participants and audience. Cultural Events committee chairman Gordon Wilson also told the Expoasis committee that various professional theatre com- - panics are interested in doing 'test runs' of their 1986 productions before presenting them to Vancouver audiences, and seem quite keen on the idea of coming to the Sunshine Coast. "Then they ask how many our theatre holds," said Wilson, "and when I tell them they wouldn't be performing in a theatre but in a school gym, their interest dies." Wilson, who is president of the North Shore Zone of Theatre B.C. as well as of local drama group' Suncoast Players, feels that with no B.C. Festival of the Arts being held in 1986, Theatre B.C. might also be interested in holding its annual theatre festival on the Sunshine Coast. "The bottom line is," said Wilson, "we need to get a theatre." Wilson also has been looking for a spokesperson for the arts and crafts community to assist with organizing a Craft Village, perhaps a cluster of colourful booths where many different crafts could be displayed and sold and where some artisans may even be seen at work.
