Its progress - through local referendum - to be held March 15 - to .Royal Proclamation is not expected to hit any snags. The stick to which Crombie refers is the traditional talking stick held by the father figure totem pole erected by the Band in 1984, and left uncarved, because, in Crombie's words, \"the Sechelt felt that they lacked achievements under their own authority\". The Bill, which Crombie calls a milestone in Canadian; history, will give the Sechelt people all that they asked for from the federal government, said Band. The Sechelt Indian Band has always kept its sense of humour, despite the numerous delays in its push towards self government. Here the 'Fathers of Confederation' are from left to right: Gordon Anderson, Lloyd Jeffries, CM. Joe, Chief Stan Dixon, Ben Pierre, Warren Paull, Graham Allen. -Evo Mareon photo Financial Advisor, Gordon .

That's unique in the country,\" he said. The District Council will have a Local Services Commission, comprised of elected representatives of all residents on Indian land and this commission will act as an advisory body to the Council. All residents will have the right to vote on matters which concern money, such as taxation. However, the legislation, also allows the Band to withdraw all its powers back under its federal umbrella should the province at. any time in the future enact legislation which is detrimental to the Band. Crombie's emotional speech to the House of Commons was addressed later by Liberal party Indian Affairs critic, Keith Pen-- ner who raised questions about the legislation in relation to other Indian groups across the country who see the route to self-government as being constitutional rather than legislative. Crombie defended his Bill strongly, saying that it should be accepted by the House in the same spirit in which the Sechelt people intend- -\" ed it, that is, as their solution to their own problems. ; !

But council's intention, made public the previous week, to consider the benefits of a permanent closure as well was, Labonte said, unwarranted. \"I don't agree with all this doom and gloom,\" he said. Mayor Diane Strom assured him that council was mainly considering closing the pool for the summer. Staff is also looking at the possibility of eliminating low user periods, she said, as a way of economizing* The pool is suffering a $13,000 deficit for 1985 in addition, to the $31,000 anticipated deficit budgeted by last year's council. In addition to paying the $44,000 total deficit, Gibsons' taxpayers contributed $15,000tothepoolthrough the West Howe Sound Recreation Commission. Areas E and F, also in the commission, paid $71,000 but substantially out of the large industrial tax base of Area F. Area D contribution to the pool may be an objective of council's. Similarly Sechelt Council, its arena facing a $25,000 deficit, has agreed to meet with the district to discuss the district's proposal for an arena assistance commission similar to West Howe Sound. Regional district Secretary- Treasurer, Larry Jardine, said last week that we might see the two municipalities fighting over recreation tax rights to Area D. A way of avoiding this, he said, and perhaps the fairest solution to the problem, would be a district-wide Commission, excluding Area A, at least in- part, because it funds its own pool. \"It wouldn't guarantee that Gibsons would pay less than it does now to the pool, but the share would be equal to Areas B through F and Sechelt.\" Sechelt Mayor Joyce Kolibas told the Coast News she was in favour of a district-wide com mission, provided it's set up right.

A maintenance crew has been at the school during this past week, Maynard told the Coast News, and vents have been installed in doors and walls to enable the air to circulate more readily. The Workmen's Compensation Board was also at Chatelech last week, Maynard said, and air quality checks were conducted. \"At no time has the mezzanine been a health hazard,\" Maynard continued. \"The WCB has given the air a clean bill of health.\" er WCB readings had showed 1250 parts per million of carbon monoxide, according to the chairman of the parents' advisory group in conversation th the Coast News. Other rooms also showed high readings, e.g. Room 112 -1073 parts per million, Home Ec room -952, staff room - 958. The WCB norm, according to the v ad \\vi chairman, is about 650 parts per million. It was also pointed out that the latest readings giving the rooms a safer reading were made after the rooms were thoroughly aired out and few students had used them during the days prior to the readings. The chairman of the parents' advisory committee said parents are still concerned about the problem. \"Just after school started last September we put it on the agenda at a meeting and found the problems with the students to be wide-spread. Many students were complaining of headaches but when they were sent to the doctor nothing seemed to be wrong but breathing carbon monoxide is like experiencing a mild form of retardation - and brain cells are being affected. \"This is an emergency situation. You have to take action when an emergency occurs. \"Our main concern is the kids. We are proud of our school and we want good things to happen there, so what we say is, fix it!\" he added. What is needed to ensure healthy air quality, in the mez zanine classrooms is an independent air-conditioning system but there is a problem with finding the necessary funding, said the chairman. Deduct boat ramp pledges All pledges going to the Sechelt and District Chamber of Commerce boat ramp committee will be tax deductible, committee chairman Bob Bowles confirmed last week. So far about $7,000 has been pledged against the $30,000 projected budget of the ramp, which the committee would like to see built at the foot of Wharf Road, before Expo. Bowles said he was encouraged to hear that pledges are tax deductible. \"People will have a choice. Either pay the federal government for the extra money you make, or put it into the community.\" The parents are well organized, with the volunteer services of a lawyer, who is also a parent, should legal action be necessary, the chairman said. Gibsons Chamber There will be a general meeting of the Gibsons Chamber of Commerce Wednesday, February 12 at 7 p.m. at the Omega Restaurant. ; Guest speakers will be Gibsons Mayor Diane Strom, town planner Rob Buchan and Capilano College representative April Struthers.

The glorious spring-like weather of last week was perfect for these brand new lambs to test their legs and nibble on some fresh green grass at their home near Gibsons. -Dianne Evans photo Coast News, February 10,1986 I.IIIIHUlilll History made More than a hundred years of history was turned back last week in Ottawa when Bill C-93 received first and second readings in the House of Commons. Ever since the first new settlers came to the West Coast Indian lands and rights have been eroded away; true progress, developed and carried out by the people themselves, has been impossible as long as the Indian Act kept them as children in the Canadian family. The Sechelt Indian Band has long chafed against the cruel Act which deprived them of initiative and the pleasures of real achievements, but the way forward has been slow and filled with disappointment. A people less persevering may easily have given up hope but the Sechelts steadfastly believed that, one day, their fight would be won. Ever practical, the Sechelts decided that the way to start their long journey towards full participation as Canadians was through economic development and renewal, and that the way to attain their goal was through legislation. At last the Sechelts have seen the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, David Crombie, speak eloquently to the Parliament of Canada, urging all who sit in that august body to accept Bill C-93, to give the Sechelts what they want and have fought so hard to win. Last Friday, all three parties gave their approval to the Bill, and the Sechelts are on their way. Now all that remains is an obligatory referendum and what promises to be a quick passage through the Senate and third reading. Then Bill C-93 will receive Royal Proclamation and the Sechelts will be the first band in the country to own its own land, to control its own destiny, to stand as full partners in the country they called their own long before the white man first cast his eyes on the blue Pacific waters. Is air a frill? Restraint in education spending has been hard on students, teachers and administrators alike, but we find it difficult to imagine the rationale that prevents the proper steps being taken to correct, once and for all, the problem with unsatisfactory air in the classrooms of Chatelech Secondary. Does the Mininstry feel that healthy, pleasant air is a luxury, like field trips and art classes, to be cut from the budget? Does the Administration of the district have a more important and pressing priority? Sluggish students do not learn as well as they might, and sluggish teachers find it hard to inspire the young with the desire to learn. This is an emergency. Let's treat it as such and act now. 5 YEARS AGO Gibsons council passed resolutions Tuesday night to request a start-up grant of $5,000 from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs under the Downtown Revitalization Plan. Glen Kraus steps down after twelve years as Chief of the Roberts Creek Volunteer Fire Department and Dennis Mulligan takes over the position. The Sechelt Indian Salmon Enhancement program on . Sechelt Inlet received a setback last week when 3,000 of their young Chinook salmon were believed stolen. 10 YEARS AGO The SCRD has come out in favour of the Islands Trust after five Regional Districts on the coast have indicated they would like to see the Trust abolished. The Islands Trust was established in 1974 to govern the Gulf Islands in Georgia Strait and the islands in and around Howe Sound. The basic principle of the Trust is to protect and preserve the islands and to establish a community plan for each. 20 YEARS AGO An estimated 1100 people milled around in the Gibsons.

An election of Commissioners will be held April 21. Mr. J. Mayne has been appointed Returning Officer for the election. 40 YEARS AGO Plans for a new High School in Gibsons and a new Elementary School at Roberts Creek, drawn by architect H. Cullerne, were accepted for preliminary consideration. The Gibsons and District Board of Trade demanded an immediate survey of all roads, including the essential link from Port Mellon to Gibsons as stated in the letter to the Minister of Public Works. The letter outlined the hazards of the road to human life. The Sunshine CO-PUBLISHERS John Burnslde M.M. Vaughan EDITORIAL Editor, Dianne Evans ADVERTISING J.

I wasn't interested at that point in reconciling myself for the hereafter. I just couldn't go to hospital and take treatments. I haunted the bookstores of Ottawa and read everything I could get my hands on on the subject of cancer.\" In one of his sessions in a bookstore Howie picked up av book called Recalled by Life by| Tony ���Satillaro. Satniaro^ himself a physician, recounted^ how he himself was suffering from cancer and had undergone radiation, chemo-therapy treatments and surgery without any slowing in the rate at which the disease was ravaging his body. One day he picked up two hitchhikers and one of them suggested that he try a macrobiotic diet which he did out of desperation. According to Satillaro's book, the disease had been successfully maintained in remission since that time. Howie packed the book away in his belongings without much hope and then re-started his run to Montreal. \"It was possibly the stupidest thing I could have done. I realized it wasn't rational and that I couldn't outrun my troubles but I just couldn't check myself into hospital. It seemed like accepting the end.\" At that point the attending physician had held out little hope of recovery and frankly told Howie that he would be lucky to see Christmas. Back in Victoria was Gabe Howie, the runner's teenage son but Howie couldn't bring himself to write a letter which would tell the terrible news. In Montreal the runner ex perienced massive muscular atrophy. \"I got up one morning and stretched and saw myself in the bathroom mirror. The muscle was gone entirely from my upper arms. There was just bone with what looked like lumps of flesh hanging under the bone.\" Next it was his pectoral muscles that were suddenly wasted away, and finally his runner's legs. \"When I was standing the flesh on my legs sagged behind the bone like a pair of loose trousers,\" Howie recalls. He phoned his friend Ken Heatherington in Elphin, Ontario, near Perth, turned his back on his cross-Canada odyssey and began to address \" himself seriously to his ihacro-'' biotic diet. \"I was lucky. I had met Wayne Diotte, a macro-biotic counsellor during one of my races in Ottawa and I had several sessions with him to ensure that I knew what I was doing nutritionally. I was also lucky in that Perth has one of the best health food stores in the country.\" Howie took refuge for six weeks in the town of Elphin, devoting himself to the mastery of macro-biotic cooking. \"Through this period I didn't really have much hope,\" he recalls. \"My limbs were like twigs and I was very weak. But it seemed the only way I could fight back.\" The ever-lean Howie weighed 108 pounds at this point, down from his normal running weight of 138. It was in Elphin one morning near the end of September that Howie first felt he was not only going to survive but to recover fully. \"The morning symptoms I ' had been having for months were suddenly not happening. Though they came back on many, many subsequent mornings.\" Now, with hope reborn, he could write to his son and tell him what was happening. Wayne Diotte, the macro-biotic counsellor told him of the White Spruce Farm outside of Fernie, B.C. and it was to this centre that Howie headed when he left his friends the Heather- ingtons. \"I spent two weeks living on the farm and learning the miracle of the macro-biotic way. Then I went home to Gabe in Victoria.\" When he visited the Sunshine Coast in January the ultra- marathoner was back up to 135 pounds. He ran each day: to Gibsons and back from Roberts Creek and to Sechelt and back. He had just recently begun to sleep for long periods and was planning a run from. Victoria tor Ferme \"to celebrate his recovery and the macro-biotic way - accompanied this time by a motor home supplied by the people of White Spruce Farm. \"The statistics say that one in three will die of cancer,\" says Howie. \"When I was a boy it was one of eight. By the end of this century it will be one of two.\" On April 26 Howie's plans call for competing in a 100 km. race which he wants to win in a Canadian record; then on May 11 he will run in the National Capital Marathon in Ottawa and on May 24, 25 he will attempt to win the Sri Chinmoy 24-hour Endurance Run for the sixth consecutive time. \"This year a world record for the 24-hour run would underline the effectiveness of my lifestyle changes.\" He will also work with Wayne Diotte the macro-biotic counsellor when he is back in the east and do some landscape gardening'with his friend Ken Heatherington.. 'But if will be on the track that the chtef difference will be noted as the man who ran with a beer in his hand with the sponsorship of breweries runs now to celebrate life and a way of eating without chemical additives. We wish him success. When You Are Old When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled And paced upon the mountaines overhead And hid his face amid a crowd of stars. William Butler Yeats Exposing social injustice Barnes' ordeal is worthwhile by Elizabeth Tansey I am looking at my old, beat- up copy of Black Like Me by John Howard Griffin. He was a white man who, driven by a strong sense of social justice, had his skin darkened with a drug treatment and for five weeks lived the ordeal of a black man in the Deep South of the United States. In my youth I had a small experience of those cruel times. A woman I knew worked on a National Film Board crew which had gone to shoot documentary footage in the Deep South. On their return she said, \"When we crossed the border home, I kissed the earth.\" Later I went with my little boy to visit old friends in Philadelphia. Returning, I changed trains in New York and had to walk, carrying my lug gage, through a series of coaches unable to find a seat. At last, to my relief, I arrived in a coach which had room for us. It was an ancient, ramshackle model, grimy and sooty, but with plenty of empty seats. A black family sat across from us, staring in puzzlement. The man helped stow my luggage on the rack and we settled comfortably. Soon my little boy was making friends with their little boy and everybody smiled. But not for long. Presently the white conductor came to take tickets. He was outraged to see me sitting there. Apparently I had broken some law I was unaware of. He hustled us out and found a seat for us in another coach, bright, new, and sparkling clean. It dawned that we were of the master race. I felt guilty and ashamed. I understood at last why the Film Board woman had kissed the earth of home. The white man, John Howard Griffin was not forgiven for his book Black Like Me. The haters bombarded him with letters, hanged him in effigy, frightened his children and threatened to castrate him. He and his parents were forced to sell their old farm in Texas where they lived and move far west. Now, a quarter century later, Emery Barnes, New Democratic Party MLA and a black man, is matching, symbolically, John Griffins' ordeal on behalf of social justice. He is accepting the challenge of the End Legislated Poverty Coalition to experience life on $350, the monthly welfare allowance to single unemployed young men. As an MLA with a comfortable salary, Mr. Barnes can on ly address the practical hardships of stretching low income to meet high prices of food, clothing and lodging. He cannot capture the true, long term frame of mind, the sense of degradation and hopelessness of the man trapped in the experience. He can do it only like an actor cast in a tragic play. Is MLA Barnes' ordeal worth while? I think yes. He is exposing social injustice to the glare of publicity. He is displaying the plight of able-bodied young men, their lives rotting away in frustration while government money is squandered disastrously on the \"moose pasture\" of Tumbler Ridge and other dubious corporate ventures launched headlong without competent research and planning.

However, the letter titled French After School by H.^ Wright, has, to be the, mosQ misguided effort I have read for 0 some,, time. - It is full ���'; of unV-1 qualified statements and even ; indicates that the writer really doesn't understand what French Immersion is or how it works. The writer's comments about Quebec were the icing on the cake. I can't believe that anyone would be looking for English signs in P.Q. If there were English signs everywhere we wouldn't need French Immersion, we would simply all speak English. If that is what you are in favour of then we won't likely be seeing your children in the Immersion classes. French Immersion is nothing new. It is in place all over this country and one proud B.C. school has already had a graduating class (K-12) of Immersion students. No one has to take French Immersion classes. It is only going to be available, hopefully, here so that parents who want their children to have the same opportunities as the children in other Canadian towns and cities will have that chance. One other thing, I wish I could speak Chinese too, but remember it is French that is the other official language in the country. D. Hunter Impressed Editor: I was favourably impressed by the showing, February 6, on the local community television channel, of videos done by students from Elphinstone Secondary. The theme was Peace, and most of the presentations were thoughtful and original. They showed that we have young people in our midst who are talented and informed and who care deeply about the kind of world they are growing up into.

Verna Sim of the Gibsons and District Chamber of Commerce had brought the date of George Gibson's arrival to the mayor's attention last week. No details have been worked out but Alderman Dixon and Alderman Peterson seemed to like the idea. Alderman Maxwell and Marshall were not at the meeting. Alderman Norm Peterson offered a suggestion passed on from John Burnside to have someone re-enact George Gibson rowing to Vancouver, laden with fresh vegetables, as a symbolic linking of the two birthdays. Planner Rob Buchan suggested the town invite Vancouver Mayor Mike Harcourt and Expo chairman Jim Pat- tison to the occasion. Former mayor Larry Labonte attended the meeting and praised the idea of a town picnic and another proposal of Strom's to set a plaque in a spot approximate to where George Gibson landed. But he took issue with the new council's decision to drop the town flag from Centennial expenses/ \"- \"You only see it once in a hundred years and 99.9 per cent of us are not going to be here for the next one. Maybe the minister of finance can change Ms mind on this.\" He suggested reducing the cost ($2700 for an order of flags in two sizes) by reducing the size of the order. He said council should at least assist the Gibsons Chamber of Commerce, which is willing to order the flags. Peterson agreed with Labonte: \"It's the town's birthday, so why should private business do it? The town should do it,\" he said. Strom replied that council had not broken down the $10,000 for Centennial expenses budgeted by the previous coun cil. Perhaps after a committee meeting this month, she said, a portion could be allocated to help the chamber with the flag. Pressed by a chamber representative for a figure, Strom said: \"Until we know what other items will cost, we can't say how much. It could be half, we just don't know. Maybe we could go higher, maybe three- quarters.\" She insisted that council had decided against funding the flag because there were other Centennial expenses of more importance. Alderman and finance chairman Gerry Dixon said he wondered why an entrepreneur hadn't gone ahead with the project. He added: \"Personally I find it such a minor item when we're living in a town where taxes are exorbitant.\" \"Since when,\" asked Labonte, \"are taxes exorbitant? They're not worse than anywhere else, I'll tell you that much.\" \"Come to me,\" said Dixon, \"and I'll give you some reading to do.\" \"I've done a lot of reading in the last 12 years,\" Labonte said. \"Maybe not enough,\" said Dixon. ���{������-���^jr WHITE SHOULDERS TRAVELLER'S GIFT SET Reg. 11.50 Sale 925 HEART SHAPED BOXES OF CHOCOLATES From 2\" to 1295 GANONGS MOIRS AND SMILES 150 gm size all 3 brands Sale457 GANONGS COMIC HEART BOX All 75 gm sizes Half Price VERVE Body Scent Mist Reg. 6.95 Sale469 SOPHIA Cologne - 70 ml Reg, 15.50 Sale950 YARDLEY All Yardley Products Soaps - Colognes - Bath 20% OFF I Post Office Gibso^ ���; SyrMAiyCREST MALLGIBSONS 886-7213 ; At Harmony Hall With 75 members in attendance the February meeting in Harmony Hall was chaired by President Jim Munro.

Students selected for the Forum program take part in a number of interesting activities in the nation's capital - including actually sitting in the Commons and Senate Chambers, talking to parliamentarian and senior public servants, and visiting Government House and the Supreme Court of Canada. They will also participate in a mock cabinet discussion of immigration policy, and take part in a staged debate on federal/provincial relations. By the end of the week-long program, the students will have learned a great deal about the challenges and the complexities in the way their government operates. As well, and equally important, they will have acquired a better understanding of their fellow Canadians from across the land. Students rely on the support of local organizations to assist in paying their fees for the program, and to help with travel costs not covered by a grant from the Secretary of State.

The PM's- appointment of Stephen Lewis to the UN gave us hope ....that such a day might be dawning. ,.,.; But, alas, the arbitrary end of the successful Youth program Katimavik leaves one the only conclusion that it was done for political reasons. Katimavik is a Liberal creation!; therefore the Tories can't gain Brownie points for it; therefore it must go.,Childish. And expensive. Had Katimavik been phased out over a year there would have been time to use the manuals, workbooks, stationary etc. in stock. Now they'll just be dumped at a loss to the taxpayer, and that's fiscal responsibility? The excuse that Katimavik had \"realized its objectives'* is of course nonsense. It wasn't intended to be an employment program, but one which teaches lifeskills, communication, working with others, tolerance, resourcefulness, environmental awareness, budget management, nutrition, fitness etc., as well as providing opportunities for work skills and appreciation of different parts of this vast Enhance Your Image on February 14th 'P^t- - &���# ��'< ELDERHOSfELER? v ' 5 < % �� *S > ' ' *< \" ������'^ ��� country, both rural and urban. It was an investment in Canada's future and cheap at the price. I could go on, but if we have to say goodbye to Katimavik I think it cannot be said better than by Mark Hamel writing a farewell in June 1985 to the group with whom he had spent the previous nine months. To Anik, Annie, Arlee, Claire, Guy, Kathy, Kevin, Mark, Marlene, Patrick and Richard whose homes are between Nanaimo and St. John's, Mark writes: \"So ends the story of Katimavik group no. 246, a good group, some would say a great group. It was. a group that set an excellent example in Ontario, worked hard arid survived in Quebec and upheld the great Katimavik reputation in B.C. It is also one of the few groups that can boast of finishing with all of its 12 original participants. \"I think I know how we will feel when we are safely home in what used to be our normal environment. \"We will feel empty - keep looking for a familiar face and keep listening for a familiar voice or laugh. We will all feel as if a very special friend has left. We will be sad that we didn't use every possible minute in the last month to be with the others in the group and to let our feelings be known. We will grow teary-eyed whenever we hear Cat Stevens or smell fresh- baked rye bread. \"Our own families for a while will seem like poor substitutes for our Katimavik family. \"For a while we will faithfully write letters and there will even be the occasional phone call. Inevitably, these will fade away. . \"As sad as it is, the twelve of us most likely will never be together again and certainly never in the same circumstances as we have enjoyed in the past nine months - sharing the many joys and the few tragedies of living with those we love. \"It is reassuring to know that although we may never see each other again, that there is a special place in all our hearts for every person in the group. So, sometimes when I start staring into space, it will be because I will be thinking of one of you, and if sometimes a mysterious smile flits across my lips, it will be because I'm thinking of one of the many good times we had together and I really think I will be smiling mysteriously quite often in the future. I will miss all of you. \"Please take care and if you're ever in Toronto...Love Mark.\" Super Host seminars by Verna Sim Now that the hustle and bustle of Christmas is over, it is time to seriously consider Expo 86, opening May 2. The Sechelt and District Chamber of Commerce, the Gibsons and District Chamber of Commerce and the Sunshine Coast Tourism Association have trained leaders available to conduct Super Host seminars. The proposed date of the eight hour seminar is Saturday, February 15. As the classroom and the teaching aids are being provided free of charge, there should be little or no cost to participants. After successfully completing the course, each Host will receive a pin and a certificate. Remember, the Super Host seminar will not only prepare us for Expo visitors, but also improve our rapport with our loyal, year round customers. (How did you handle your last complaint?) If you wish to participate, please phone Verna Sim at the Chamber Office, Gibsons: Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 886-2325.

Pender High news by Michelle Cochet As I mentioned in last week's column, our graduating class is planning to have a dance-a- thon. The date has been set for Saturday, February 15 in the Community Hall. There will be about 10 couples dancing. The grads and their partners are to arrive'at the hall at 11:45 and begin dancing at noon. They will then continue to dance until midnight, a total of 12 hours. In order to gain enough capital to make the dance worthwhile, these students will be going around to the various homes and businesses of our area and asking for pledges. The pledges will be based on an hourly basis, just in case the dancers are unable to last the entire 12 hour period. On behalf of the grads, I would like to encourage everybody to pledge generously. These students are making plans for the best graduation ceremonies ever, but unfortunately they- can -not' make if' without your contribution. Please keep this in mind when you see one of our students approaching you. Last week, I mentioned that both our Lip Synch, and our Valentine's Day dance are scheduled to occur on the same day. Due to a protest about the shortage of time, the Lip Synch has been postponed. The new date that has been set is Thursday, February 20 right after lunch. This activity will be open to the public so please come and see our students in action. We can guarantee that you will enjoy it. Incidentally, the Valentine's dance will still be this Friday. Well, our girls tried their best, but they were unable to beat the extremely strong Powell River teams. They played two games during their visit, one against Oceanview, and the other against Brooks. Although they did not emerge from these competitions victorious, they did play very well. Their loss against Oceanview was only by a total of 10 points, not very much when you consider that one basket scores two. The girls all enjoyed the trip and are looking forward to the next. They would like to thank their coach/Mr. Bruce Forbes, for all the work he put in to make the trip possible. I'm sure that they appreciated it very much. At 5 a.m. Monday morning, a small group of our students boarded the bus in Madeira Park on their way to Whistler Mountain for our annual two day ski trip. While on the trip these students spent the night at a youth hostel just a little way from the mountain. They ate all their meals at the Keg, which is conveniently located in Whistler Village and spent their days on the slopes. Lessons were supplied to all the students involved as part of a package deal (skis, boots, poles, lessons, and lift tickets). The group was chaperoned by Mr. Gary Winkelman, and Ms. Wendy Simmonds, both teachers here at Pender Harbour Secondary School. As usual, the trip was a big success, and a load of fun. No sooner had our students arrived home and they were busy talking, about next year's ski trip. On behalf of the students involved, I would like to thank all of the staff who worked so hard to make this trip possible, especially Mr. Gary Winkelman who did most of the coordinating.

A larger than usual public turned out for the meeting. ���John Gleeson photo George in Gibsons Bist praises handicapped ass'n by George Cooper, 886-8520 The Sunshine Association for the Handicapped has an enviable and admirable record said Harvey Bist, the District Supervisor of the Ministry of Human Resources. Mr. Bist was the guest speaker at the Association's annual meeting January 28 in the Achievement Centre. ' The Association has set up and administered the Achievement Centre in the Seamount Industrial subdivision. It has taken on more and more responsibility in its contracts with the ministry. The Association has held seminars and open house, \"hiis:^ increased the number of referrals, and has initiated new programs in cooperation with the ministry. \"The Association has shown outstanding development in their service to the handicapped,\" Mr. Bist told the meeting. But above all the Association has taken on the responsibilities of advocate for the handicapped in the community to make life more meaningful and satisfying for them. \"That is your major effort,\" Harvey Bist told the members. \"The Sunshine Association for the Handicapped has to be an agency of out-reach for the handicapped, has to be the advocate for their rights and for the means to live satisfying lives in their home community. \"You must take risks for the handicapped,\" Bist said, \"You must see to their protection. Often you are going to be the only organization in the community to recognize the needs of the handicapped.\" In his address Mr. Bist outlined the services and resources available to the handicapped from the ministry. \"Human Resources recognizes,\" he said, \"that every handicapped person at age 19 is an adult with rights and privileges as well as responsibilities. Each one therefore must be involved in any decisions that concern him or her; for example, where he is to live. \"The Ministry of Human Resources provides support services for the mentally handicapped person and his family. These servcies are GAIN, ex tended medical care, family and children's services, special training, and transportation. \"As well,\" Bist continued in his address, \"there are some options provided in the development of skills, and to aid the client. In this the ministry can provide assessment, testing and counselling. \"The uniqueness of the family and the stress it may have in coping with a member who is mentally handicapped is recognized by the ministry,\" Bist said, \"and the ministry stands ready with many services to support that family.\" In her report to the meeting,* Wendy Jackson, the newly appointed supervisor of the Achievement Centre, said that the main activities at present were furniture re-finishing and a contract for boom boards and boom plugs, as well as some truck-washing days. \"We have some possible activities to investigate,\" Wendy said, \"but we do need*more contracts for shop work.\" President-elect for 1986, Peter Bandi, said the Family Support committee of which he was chairman had investigated the needs of parents and what expectations they have of the Association. He said a condensed version of the committee's report was being prepared for the members. \"Our Association's name reflects our objectives,\" Bandi said. Honorary life membership for the man who produced the new logo for the Association, John Weyberg, was unanimously approved by the members. Officers for 1986: President, Peter Bandi; Vice-President, Marlene Lemky; Secretary, Pat Juraschka; Treasurer, Jack White; Directors, Ines Petersen, Myrtle Braun, Marcel Girard, Frank West, and Ed Charle- bois. A gift from the members to Marlene Lemky who has served as president for the past two years was presented by Myrtle Braun.

It was a busy production day at the Coast News when I visjted for lunch so there was no time dawdle, but there were many there more fortunate, idling a pleasant afternoon away in conversation or ruminating to the pleasantly unobtrusive music or watching the boats come and go in Gibsons Harbour. . The Gramma's luncheon menu is priced to fit the economic pocket book. Top of the line is a New York Steak Sandwich served with soup, fries, and salad for just $6.50. Also on the menu are such thrifty delights as Zucchini and Chicken Strips as entrees for just $4.75. Fish and chips can be enjoyed for just $4.25; hamburgers for less than $4 and Chili on a bun for just $2.75. Included for the dieting or non-meat eaters are a Tossed Salad offering and a Cheese and Veggie Platter with the chef's own dressing. The Tossed Salad is priced at just $2.75 while the platter comes with a modest $4.25 price tag. For the occasional taste adventure Nachos are served with both cheddar and mozzarella cheese for just $4.25. These items are all included on the regular luncheon menu but there is also a special of the day. I had prawns and chips after a bowl of excellent clam chowder for just $5.95. I contented myself with tea, though of course Gramma's has a full choice of alcoholic beverages for those who wish to indulge with their lunch. Stop by lower Gibsons' neighbourhood pub soon for lunch. You'll find it pleasant, relaxing, and no strain on your pocket book. Your taste buds will like it, too.

A. Mark Asleson Christina R.A. Asleson Executors by Farris, Vaughan, Wills & Murphy Coast News, February 10,1986 Editor: Last week it was reported that \"temporary\" one year foreshore leases for fishfarming would now be granted automatically, without any kind of public consultation what-so- ever. This follows months of controversy and rising public concern that fish farms pose a threat of disease and pollution to the foreshore and endanger its rich natural community of life. There is also a provincial election around the corner, bringing a possible change to government. It is obvious that the automatic granting of leases is nothing but an attempt to get our foreshore into private investors hands as fast as possible, before public pressure or a change in government stops the give-away and possible destruction of this valuable resource. We also read that the provincial government has approved $50,000.00 of public funds to cover costs of the Tourist Association to promote aquaculture and pay for Oddvin Vedo's travel expenses to Norway. An additional $100,000 grant is to follow later when needed by fish fanners and the Tourism Association. This boundless generosity of the provincial government with our foreshore and our tax money toward fish fanners and the Tourist Association is in , sharp contrast to the demand for concessions from government employees and cutbacks of funding for education, health and other social services. What it boils down to is that this government is pursuing a policy of transferring our natural and financial resources into private hands. In my opinion the privatization of public wealth puts this whole government in a conflict of interest situation. It is time that the resources of this province are used to satisfy the needs of the people as a whole and not channelled into the pockets of self-interest groups and corporations. Hans Penner Gibsons In the early hours of February 1, 1986, suspects broke into a local business, the Jade Palace restaurant, located on Highway 101 near Crucil Road in Gibsons. The suspect or suspects gained entry through an adjacent office and once inside the follow- 17. ing articles were stolen: four dozen cases of beer, 15 26-ounce bottles of hard liquor, and an AM/FM radio cassette. The total value of these items is $600. If you have information about this crime or any other crime please call Crime Stoppers, at 886-TIPS or 886-8477. Iris apologizes Editor: Oops, people of Madeira Park and Garden Bay, I apologize! I put up notices saying to watch Channel 10 at 7:30 p.m. last Thursday, because Gordon McAllister and I would be T.V. stars. We were too. Using slides we described what we'd learned in Nanaimo at a big enquiry about the Nanoose and Jervis testing ranges. The problem was that Chan nel 10 in Pender isn't the same as Gibsons and didn't show it. (How should I know - we don't even get cablevision here in Egmont.) Sony! Anyway we're taping the broadcast on Tuesday night and because so many of you are interested will show it soon. We'll put up notices again. Believe them! Iris Griffith Egmont No discrimination Editor: A letter published last week (Well being for the well-to-do) appeared to imply that the Continuing Education brochure should not be used to advertise the services of these local wholistic health practioners. I would like to clarify that, space permitting, this \"advantage\" is, and has been, available to promote many other local ac- W��5 tivities which have a significant educational and/or recreational component. However, there is a charge for advertising in our brochure for commercial activities - i.e. those which do not qualify as a non-profit activity. The cost of the services advertised has not been seen as a reason to discriminate. R. Moss SUNSHINE COAST REGIONAL DISTRICT Notice of Public Hearing Pursuant to Sections 956 and 957 of the Municipal Act, a public hearing will be held to consider the following by-law of the Sunshine Coast Regional District: \"Sunshine Coast Regional District Zoning Amendment By-law No. 264.9, 1985\". It is the intent of the By-law No. 264.9 to amend By-law 264 to provide for clearer wording and a new map base. The proposed amendments within the text are generally housekeeping in nature and include the correction of uncertain wording, updated Act titles, more consistent terminology and other similar changes. The proposed map amendments include some rezoning of public park lands, designation changes associated with the subdivision and acquisition of Cooper's Green and a number of minor cartographic refinements. It is also proposed that the current Schedule A of By-law 264, intended originally to be temporary base maps, be replaced with a new zoning map base in order to provide better representation of the zoning designations. The public hearing will be held at 7 p.m, on THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1986 at the Regional District Office, the Royal Terraces Building located at the foot of Wharf Street, Sechelt, B.C. All persons who deem their interest in property to be affected by the proposed by-law shall be afforded an opportunity to be heard on matters contained therein. The above is a synopsis of the by-law and is not deemed to be an interpretation of the by-law. The amending by-law may be inspected at the Regional District Office, the Royal Terraces building located at the foot of Wharf Street, Sechelt, B.C. during office hours, namely Monday to Wednesday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Thursday and Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mr. L.
