He was speaking to almost 300 special guests at this gala opening. He then turned the microphone over to Harold Long, local MLA. \"After seeing what is here today and understanding the employment that is given to this area and the impact on all society along with your tourism, I'm just delighted for Sechelt,\" said Mr. Long. \"Aquarius has set an example for the rest of the riding to follow. We have 60 per cent of the coastline of British Columbia in our riding and I think this is going to impact all the way up the coast and is going to give the jobs that are needed in the future^; , .v.._.,: ,.... ������.-. 7 Trie Minister of Agiiculture and Fisheries, the Honourable John Savage, was on hand to cut the ribbon. \"It is a potentially great industry for the Province of B.C. and certainly for this peninsula,\" he stated, noting there presently were only 250 operations on the coast instead of the expected 1000. As for provincial involvement in aquaculture, he stated, \"We will be bringing forward legislation, hopefully in this session, to clear up some of the jurisdictional matters between the federal government and the provincial government. It is our intent to take over most of the licensing and inspection operations in the province.\" Aquarius Seafarms Limited presently has seven farms with three more going into operation witjiin .the^next.r six;., to eight weekis. The new* hatchery will produce an excess of three million smolts this year. Approximately half will go to their own farms. Next year they expect production to double. Aquarius plans to market 1.5 million^ pounds x>f7, fish this winter and increase that to four million pounds the following year. Sewage odours plague Gibsons \"It must be given top priority,\" stated Alderman Bob Maxwell at last week's Gibsons Council Planning Meeting, speaking on the subject of the Gibsons Sewage Treatment Plant. There were no disagreements. Complaints about offensive odours have been received since 1974 and the town has ��. �� *\\. ^^;>^n been attempting to rectify the problem since that time but to no avail. Superintendent of Works, Bob Marchand, outlined the problems in a three page report. He explained that the main contributor of odours is the ther- mophylic digester. The town has had difficulty getting the digester to work properly and assumed that once those malfunctions were corrected that the smells would go away. The digester is now functioning correctly but the odours are still there and no less offensive. The digester is meant to work at high temperatures resulting in odours being carried up and away from the plant. In the evenings, however, when the air cools, the odours are carried down the sloping terrain towards the water. There are also pockets where the smells are extremely foul. The Planning Committee has recommended that Dayton and Knight be contacted immediately and be asked to come back with an immediate response. Socreds find Bill 19 is a good bill The annual general meeting of the Mackenzie Social Credit Association was held Sunday, June 7 in Powell River. The well-attended meeting was addressed by Mackenzie MLA Harold Long and by Highways Minister Cliff Michael, who spoke on Bill 19, employment, ferries and health care costs. Mr. Michael, himself a former union official, believes that Bill 19 is good legislation which will bring democracy into the workplace. Employees will have the right to vote on an employer's final contract offer, instead of having to follow the dictates of a union negotiating committee. It will also be easier to certify a union shop or to decertify if workers so desire. He stated that a silent majority of British Columbians support the government's labour initiatives, citing a grass-roots rally of 4000 supporters at the legislature last week. Michael pointed out that 105,000 new jobs have been created in B.C. so far this year; unemployment is down from 15.4 per cent to 11.6 per cent. Still too high, but moving in the right direction. The government is concerned about health care costs with an aging population and the AIDS epidemic. It is feared that each AIDS patient will require about $100,000 in government health expenditure. Hope Wotherspoon, the provincial party president chaired the elections which saw E.R. Rufer of Gibsons elected consistency Vice-President and several directors elected including Stan Dixon, former Chief of the Sechelt Indian Band. Pub sought for Davis Bay The Cafe Martinez is still working toward rezoning so it can become a neighbourhood pub. \"A public hearing is the first step,\" stated Mayor Koch at last week's meeting of the Sechelt Planning Committee. He expressed concern that at some future date the premises may change hands and competition from other pubs may create the kindi of establishment that would not-be compatible with a family area. How far do they have to go to attract business to survive,\" he said. Alderman Anne Langdon, speaking in favour of a neighbourhood pub, said, \"If you look at pubs in this area, they are as much restaurants as they are pubs. People don't go there just for their weekly brew.\" brew.\" Alderman Craig commented:; \"It would be consistent with the development of a waterfront recreational area for Davis Bay.\" Crino d'Oro is pictured outfitting in Gibsons Harbour prior to the voyage which sank her.

In an interview last week, Sunshine Coast Aquaculture Association president Syd Heal told the Coast News that there are already 400 delegates booked for the conference which is scheduled for September 8 through 11. Bookings for exhibit booths have already arrived from as far away as Finland and Sweden and inquiries are coming in from India and Japan. Decisions about the fate of the 1988 conference will be made within a matter of weeks and Heal said he's optimistic that it will take place. Several options are being considered, he said, one is that the Sunshine Coast show could run right after the large international aquaculture trade show which is being planned in Vancouver. \"We're not approaching this Vancouver thing with any dog- Please turn to page 7 \" \"PTT��1 K_J Gibsons fisherman Dale Pearce along with shipmates Ron (Butch) Hill and Jake Spinks are back home after the 75 foot dragger Crino d'Oro sank in heavy seas 75 miles from Port Hardy last Wednesday morning. Jake Spinks was crew- ing as deckhand and the other two men were partners in the vessel. Dale Pearce spoke to the Coast News: \"We had pretty close to a full load of fish and were bucking heavy weather all night. About 7 am we got into a real cross sea and got four or five heavy waves in the boat. The boat just swamped and floundered and fell over on its side. It went down about three or four minutes later. \"We got a Mayday off and a Loran position instantly. We spent the rest of the time trying to launch a liferaft which we got into the water but it wouldn't inflate. The hard skiff got pinned under the bow of the boat so we couldn't get it overboard. \"We spent half an hour to 40 minutes in the water. There was no debris or anything like that. There was just us m the water and the canister of the liferaft which we finally managed to retrieve and pry it open, beat it open. Basically it went pretty good, everybody did whatever they had to do. No one really talked, one guy got the life- jacket, another guy got the flares, someone did the Mayday.\" Mr. Pearce said all three were tired and beatup but otherwise okay. \"I'm home for a bit but I'll probably get bored the day after tomorrow.\" For these men, it's all in a day's work. ' ' ~~^^$$$fc ���lw�����__*._ii^ Coast News, June 15,1987 It is ironic but not surprising that the party which swept to power vowing to get the federal deficit under control is now, having made little impact on the deficit, telling us it plans to spend $10 billion so that Canada can play with the big boys with a fleet of nuclear submarines. This is the country that not too long ago had a prime minister who had won the Nobel Peace Prize; this is a country that not too long ago had armed forces which were synonymous with peace-keeping around the world. It is notable that the Minister for Disarmament in the federal government objected to the cold war rhetoric with which the Defence Minister couched his arguments for the massive spending being plannned on nuclear submarines on the grounds that such language made the job of discussing disarmament more difficult. In this chosen path, as in so many others, the Conservative government is emulating the Reaganites south of the border who, elected promising a return to fiscal responsibility, have run up an astronomical deficit with no comparison in their nation's history and largely it has been incurred feeding the endless appetite of the war machine. It is now more than quarter of a century since out-going Republican president Dwight Eisenhower warned the American people that the military/industrial machine was in danger of running totally out of control. How would he see it today? The parallel is just about complete when the head of the Canadian armed forces visits the West Coast and tells us this pointless and wasteful squandering of resources is justified in the name of job creation. Twenty years ago there seemed a unique place for Canada among the nations of the world as the only industrialized Western nation that had never had an empire. Today we seem to be a country content to take a predictable place as a satellite of the American Empire. ijmmm fflw :<***** Gomfjmm 5 YEARS AGO Citing falling pulp markets and prices as the prime factors, Canfor released a staterfifeht last week announcing that the Port Mellon mill will face closure of 38 working days this year over twot separate periods.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES Canada: 1 year $35; 6 months $20; Foreign; 1 year $40 Charles Merrick 1901 - 1987 There may be names other than those of Harry Roberts, Hubert Evans, and Charles Merrick that call up memories of the early days of Roberts Creek. Certainly none can be more closely associated with those days than the three stalwarts who homesteaded near the mouth of the Creek. One by one they have passed away recently and the last to go and the youngest was Charles Merrick, 1901-1987. Charles Merrick first came to the Creek as a boy in 1906. His father had met Harry Roberts and become his friend. Charles' father was an engineer for Frank Waterhouse, the freight arm of the old Union Steam-;/ ships and was often away from home. Young Charles was in the care of his mother and two sisters and perhaps his father thought the influence of Harry Roberts was just what his son needed, for a pattern was set which saw the boy return every summer to help Harry run the store. \"They kept the butter in a crock in the creek to help keep it cool,\" remembers Mrs. Betty Merrick. She and her son Paul are lighting the fire on a gray cool morning when the reporter calls. The comfortable home which Charles Merrick built when he retired as an industrial Sits teacher in 1967 sits beside and, to a degree, is modelled after the Castle Harry Roberts built for his first wife Birdie. The Merricks lived in the Castle in 1967 when they moved to the Creek on Charles' retirement. Mrs. Merrick is Charles' se- Departure 1938 The Vancouver-bound steamer is at our wharf. Members of the immediate family go up the gangplank. fVe others stand back a little. Our settlement has nothing to ship this trip��� Nothing that is except the box there on the wharf shed floor. The box is of clear, edge-grain cedar and has spliced rope handles, two on each side. It was made yesterday by Jock the ship's carpenter who keeps a supply of seasoned lumber on hand for occasions such as this. �� The winches at the foot of the mainmast chatter as the cargo board is hoisted and lowered to the wharf Four of us, hatless, carry the box and place it lengthwise on the board. Two deck hands spread a Union Jack over it. One, presumably a family man, makes a point of tucking the covering snugly around his end. He steps back one pace and removes his battered cap. His hatless mate waggles a thumb and finger for the winchman to hoist away. The winches* chatter is subdued. Slowly, slowly the winch drums turn. The skipper appears on the wing of the bridge, his visored cap held against his chest ��� a sea-going padre pronouncing benediction. Swinging slightly, the load is raised still higher and held a moment, outlined against the soft grey sky. An untucked corner of the covering flutters as the box descends into the dark hold. Mooring lines are cast off, the gangplank hauled aboard. As the ship gets underway we see its ensign lowered to half-staff. A man behind me clears his throat with needless vigor, another rolls a cigarette. Old Scottie says \"aye weel weeV\\..to no one in particular. Singly and in pairs we leave. There are cows or goats to milk, kindlings to be split for morning. Midway along the wharf I look back. The ship is on course beyond the reef. I hear white gulls crying. At the last our neighbor did not have too rough a crossing. He was a plain-spoken man and direct in his dealings. His departure was in keeping. Hubert Evans cond wife. He married Marjorie Roberts, Harry's niece whom he had known from childhood in 1929. The couple had five children. Paul Merrick, a distinguished architect, refers throughout the interview with complete comfort to Mother Number One and Mother Number Two. He and his twin brother David were the youngest, aged 10, when Mother Number One passed away. \"Miss Copland was the school nurse and a relative of Harry Roberts herself through marriage, so when father remarried it seemed like Mother Number Two had always been an integral part of the family,\" says Paul Merrick. \"Five children, I was crazy,\" laughs Mrs. Betty Merrick. Charles Merrick's leadership qualities were early tested. During the First World War, at age 15, with adults away at the war, Charles led the First Vancouver Troop of Muntaineers through a remarkable program of outdoor scouting experiences. Work on behalf of the scouting movement was left close to completion on his work bench at his death. He was a distinguished member of the Baden Powell Guild- Charles' first work was for North West Steel but soon he had taken the requisite courses and was teaching industrial arts, or manual training as it was then called, in Ocean Falls, first, and various Lower Mainland centres before he retired in Vancouver in 1967. All the while Charles and his family were moving further out from the encroaching city and Betty Merrick remembers living in West Vancouver before electricity when going to church meant taking your lanterns with you so you could light the church. The move to Roberts Creek upon retirement was both a kind of returning to a beginning and the completion of a lifelong pattern. Nor was Charles Merrick idle during his last years in Roberts Creek. When it was decided to compile a history of Roberts Creek in 1975 under a New Horizons grant, Charles and Betty Merrick were centrally involved from the beginning, and Charles succeeded the late Cliff Gilker, upon the latter's passing, as chairman of the project. The book was published in 1978. He was actively interested in the Roberts Creek Community Association and the Roberts Creek United Church. Paul's elder brother Peter, again a resident of the Creek, pedals up on a bike and joins the interview. He and Paul remember how a plain cedar box had been fashioned as appropriate for the burial of the man they still call Unkie, Harry Roberts. Perhaps the idea came from the poem by Hubert Evans which appears on this page. In any case the thing was done. It seemed appropriate that a self-made cedar coffin should shield the remains of Charles Merrick, too,' and so his sons fashioned him such a box 'no metal anywhere' when his time came to be interred. Peter remembers: \"It was green, clear, Western Red Cedar. I was helping to build it on crutches. \"I asked Paul: 'Shall I plane or sand the bottom?' \"What would father have done?' said Paul. \"I said 'Right', and continued planing to a very high standard.\" Paul and I visit the workshop on the way out. \"Until we buried father, I'd never worked in this workshop,\" said Paul, \"but using it was like pulling on an old. shoe. He had everything where he always had everything and everything labelled and in its place. Harry's workshop was entirely different.\" Besides some stamp collecting boxes he had been working on for the Baden Powell Guild, the new SCRD-distributed house number was being worked on in wood when Charles left the workshop for the last time. Over a cup of coffee by the fireplace Mrs. Betty Merrick smiles at the thought and says: \"Sometimes I think about Unkie and Hubert and Charles getting together now.\" Of the three of them; Harry Roberts; Hubert Evans; Charles Merrick; Charles is the only one I never met. It is something I profoundly regret as I leave that patch of history at the mouth of Roberts Creek. Coast News, June 15,1987 ���*** apjaiuWn etter An Open Letter to the Residents of Gibsons Dear Residents: As many of you are aware, there has for some time been a problem with persistent, unpleasant odours emanating from the sewer treatment facility. The council had been given the understanding that the problem was due to the overloading of the system and that when the expansion to the plant was completed and operating properly, the odours would, diminish. This has not been the case. ��� The effluent being pumped ;put our outfall is well under the limits allowed by our permit jfrom the Ministry of Enrivon- tment and our thermophylic fdigester is now digesting sludge efficiently. But the odours persist. 7 The council has made the ���reduction and elimination of the. [odours their top priority. A request has been made to consulting engineers for a list of odour abatement measures which they are prepared to guarantee will be effective together with associated costs. This list is to be prepared and delivered as soon as possible. As soon as it is received, council will establish and implement a program of odour abatement measures. Your continued co-operation and patience is appreciated. The Mayor and Council The Town of Gibsons Objection Editor: As an elderly citizen who would be confined to spending my days indoors if it wasn't for my mobile wheelchair, I must express my objection to the unfunny article in last week's Press. The headline stated \"Speed Demons a Menace,\" and the writer rambled about speed freaks in wheelchairs. There are only a few of us in Sechelt who are forced*; by health circumstances to travel in this way and I am sure that they will be equally offended by this type of publicity. Sechelt Wheelchair User More debt Editor: What the hell does the Federal Government want to \"foist on us now? At a time when we are already carrying a deficit National Debt greater per capita then the people of the US, are we supposed to condone an expenditure of billions of dollars to play war games? One hundred billion over 15 years. If the Canadian government is concerned about the Arctic it should station surveillance equipment, mobile or stationary. If there are incursions - by foreign powers, we should settle affairs through the UN and World Constitution. Incidentally, the US is the only country to date to flaunt their disregard for Canada's sovereignty in the Arctic. All the hardware we could muster would be insufficient to ; outgun the US or the USSR and could only add to the irritants that provoke war. ��� At this point in the world's .history, to diffuse rather than escalate the arms race, or chip ���on shoulder mentality, is needled. Every billion dollars we are ��� committed to spend, I reckon to , cost the average Canadian fami- ���_-.ly $200 or more.

Week two started with Economic and Social Geography of the Sunshine Coast taught by Brett McGillvray and Cordon Wilson. Followed by the Knowledgeable Consumer; Aquaculture talk, a course on Critical Thinking by Mark Bat- tersby; a tour of the Sechelt Indian Hatchery; a walk through the Sechelt Marsh; and a tour of the Indian carvers on a film set. Monday evening, the Sechelt Chamber of Commerce hosted a wine and cheese party. Wednesday, the Welcome Beach Community Association Seniors debate taxes by Larry Grafton Perhaps the main reason why we have a paragraph in our Branch Constitution which states we are non-political non- sectarian, is to prevent our members from voicing opposing opinions with resultant bloodshed during this last week. Mind you this would only apply in our hall. My personal good wishes go out to the secretaries in the Municipal Hall who have to face a deluge of angry tax payers to explain something that is none of their doing. The question of course is \"When is this nonsense going to stop?\" Mr. Forst of the Sunshine Coast Teachers' Association is appalled and well he should be, \"3.1 per cent is only an inflation ?�� it.v>eVuV��>v- Treat him to a GIFT CERTIFICATE for one of our super services!

ELDERHOSTEL The second contingent of Elderhostel people were in town last week from all parts of Canada and the United States. One of the highlights of their visit was a salmon barbecue with all the trimmings provided by the Welcome Beach Community Association in their hall. Upon completion of the meal the 69ers presented a few numbers to the assembly with Nikki Weber conducting and Connie Wilson as accom- panyist. The Country Stars Square Dancers then performed. A group of visitors from far places were able to perform with the local group which certainly added to the community spirit. Judging from conversations some of these people will certainly be back. with a My Gas or Electric TRIMMER from ITS POWER PLUS had a fabulous fish bake and party at their hall in Halfmoon Bay, with salmon donated. Tom Sheldon.'a local diver, did a marine slide show, or there was a choice of a silk dying demonstration. Then before they knew it Friday night had arrived and it was graduation time. In the absence of President Jardine, advisory member Ken Moore handed out the certificates and everyone made their last farewells. Anyone who has hosted these travelling students are so thrilled with the people they have had in their homes that they are eagerly looking forward to next year when the program is on again. April Struthers and Diane Staples do a magnificent job arranging all the details booking the teachers, fitting the students to the hosts and the 101 things that need to be done to make the program the huge success it is. The people that arrive here from a_ over are so intrigued with what they find that they all plan to return, some even found property to buy. One lady from Oregon was so pleased this program was offered here as this is a favourite visiting spot of hers and to have the courses was an added plus. Next year why don't you plan on taking in students and join in the fun of Elderhostelling?

He assured the board that he had Watch for the OPENINfi DAY SPECIALS at Marshall Wells! no personal interest in the matter. Several months ago, Derby served notice that he would not be operating the dump after June 26, because it was not a financially viable operation. At the meeting last week, he said that he would be sticking to that decision with the additional reason of his wife's poor health. He asked the board to consider maintaining the Gibsons site as a commercial dump, which would charge a user fee for the dumping of everything except kitchen garbage. Alter natively, if the SCRD was not prepared to make that decision now, he suggested taking it to referendum in the fall. Keeping the dump open on that basis, would require that someone be on site every day for five days a week, to collect fees and keep out the kitchen garbage. However, the fees charged have only covered about one third of the cost of running the dump, he said. The board agreed to refer the matter to the Public Utilities Committee which meets this Thursday. The philosophy of municipal planning came into discussion at the Sechelt Council Planning Committee meeting last Wednesday. Planner Rob Buchan expressed concern that some areas of the Draft District of Sechelt Community Plan were not definitive enough. A specific example given was some of the large land tracts in East Porpoise Bay that are recommended being down-zoned from Rural 2 (R2) to Rural Resource (RR). RR includes rural residential, forestry, agriculture, recreation and sand and gravel extraction areas. Temporary permit within RR disignated areas may be issued for sand and gravel extraction and crushing, temporary campsites, construction camps, short term commercial recreation facilities and shake, shingle and sawmilling. \"RR designation would create an apprehension with the public,\" stated Mr. Buchan about the proposed down- zoning. Mayor Bud Koch noted that the proposed plan didn't provide for zoning for marinas in residential areas. \"It leaves a gray area and makes it difficult for anyone dealing with water leases,\" he pointed out. A public meeting will be held on June 16, at 7 pm at the Senior Citizens' hall to make people aware of the plan. A public hearing will be held on June 20 at 2 pm at the same address so that people may give input. The emphasis at the committee meeting was that the plan was a draft only and subject to revision. 20% OFF all SLEEPWFAR ALSO 20% off all Blouses, Skirts, Tops, Raincoats, Jackets Vjw BOTH LOCATIONS Cowrie St., Sechelt 9:30-5:30 885-2916 Cedar Plaza, Gibsons 10-5 886-8199 ^> F/\\SHloK?j Fantastic SALE!

Members of Council and staff will be present to provide information, and to answer questions. b) As required by Section 956 and 957 of the Municipal Act, a Public Hearing will be held to consider the following by-law of the District of Sechelt: \"District of Sechelt Official Community Plan By-law No. 22,1987\" It is the intent of this by-law to supersede the existing Official Community Plan By-law No. 237, and to introduce a new Official Community Plan over the entire area of the new Municipality of the District of Sechelt, as incorporated in 1986. The Public Hearing will be held at 2 pm on Saturday, June 20, 1987 at the Senior Citizens' Hall, Mermaid St., Sechelt. All persons who deem their interest in property to be affected by the proposed by-law shall be herein afforded an opportunity to be heard on matters contained therein. The amending By-law No. 22 may be inspected at the Municipal Offices of the District of Sechelt at 5545 Inlet Avenue, Sechelt, from Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 3 pm. Conference to be bigger Rob Buchan Municipal Planner, Approving Officer District of Sechelt Box 129 Sechelt,'BC VON 3A0 Telephone: 885-1986 Continued from page 1 in-the-manger attitude,\" he said. \"We realize its benefit to the whole industry.\" But he pointed out that the expense of either participating in or attending the conference in Vancouver will be prohibitive for some of the smaller businesses. Additionally, many of ther topics covered at the international conference will have little relevance for B.C. fish farmers. In contrast, this year's Sunshine Coast Trade Show will have more Canadian Exports than ever before. Speakers will cover a broad range of subjects on finfish and shellfish farming, including a relatively new endeavor in B.C., abalone farming. Some temporary confusion erupted when it was announced that the 1988 international conference, which is expected to attract approximately 1500 delegates, would be held on the same dates traditionally used by the Sunshine Coast Aquaculture Association for the conference here. \"Conference organizers chose the same dates we normally use. Whether that was by accident or design we can't say,\" Mr. Heal explained. \"We support the concept of an international conference of this scale in the sense that we prefer to see it in Vancouver than in some other North American city.\" The loss of the conference could severely jeopardize the existence of the Sunshine Coast Aquaculture Association. Heal said that the annual event underwrites a large portion of the association's expenses, and without it the association might have to fold.

There'll be three days of festivities in the hope that as many people as possible can be part of the celebrations. Things begin Friday night with a smorgasbord for $5 per person available from 6 to 8 pm. Leta, the renowned belly- dancer, will perform twice in the evening and there'll be taped music from the 40's, 50's, and 60's. The branch will be open on Saturday afternoon from 1 to 5 pm for people to drop in, visit, hear about the renovations planned for the bar, and quaff a few from the new draught machine. Another $5 smorgasbord will be served from 5 to 7 pm followed by a birthday cake and an awards ceremony, then dancing from 9 to 1 am with Ken Dalgleish and Trio. Charter members, past presidents, and presidents of other legion branches have been invited that night so seating will be very limited. There are no tickets or reservations: it's first come, first served at the door with members having priority. There'll be an Open House on Sunday from 1 to 6 pm featuring the mellow tones of the 69ers around 2 pm. It sounds like a full slate of activities so do take part. And if you have any old pictures or other memorabilia of the legion's past, Roy Cardinal would dearly love to hear from you at 885-2128 (work) or 885-2952 (home). JOB'S DAUGHTERS Julie Storey will be taking over from Heather Ross as Honour Queen of Job's Daughters at the installation ceremonies this Sunday. Also on the new executive are Nancy Marshall, Senior Princess; Amanda Stubley, Junior Princess; Stacey Cleland, Guide; and Dolena Brand, Marshall. The installation ceremony is a very pretty one and members of the community are invited to attend. It's at the Masonic Hall on Sunday at 2 pm. DAZE COMING Plans for Roberts Creek Daze are well underway but there are still lots of opportunities for people to help and participate. Most important is the need for a few more contestants in the Mr. Roberts Creek contest. C'mon guys, take the plunge and enter now so the show will go on! The contest will be held Friday, July 17, followed by dancing to Slim and The Pickups. Last year's outdoor dance at the mouth of the Creek was such a success it will be reprised on the Saturday night featuring Used Guys. Gibsons Trade Show Wednesday, June 17 there will be a mini trade show of Gibsons. The chamber is having a 'Show and Tell' night. Some of the groups involved in this show are Travel Sunshine Coast, Sunshine Achievement Centre, and the Gibsons Landing Theatre Project. The cost is $5 for the evening and tickets are available at the Chamber Information Centre. The time is 8 to 10 pm. If anyone else would like to be in the show please call Linda Gilbert at 886-2419. Gardening notes by Marguerite No sooner is summer really on its way than we gardeners have to think about winter vegetable supplies. There is a lot to sow and plant this month, but afterwards it is a comfortable feeling to know the winter larder will be full. The Pacific North West winter climate is reasonably mild, so we can grow many vegetables which, when mulched six inches when weather is cooler, makes them available even under the snow. Consult your local nurseries for a 'territorial' seed catalogue which are very informative. Try growing Tiny Tim tomato plants in a hanging basket, placed in your sunniest position, or on your patio. If your lawn needs feeding, do it early in the month while the grass can still make use of the food. As the weather warms up a lawn begins to live off stored food. We hope the children have their sunflower seeds planted and starting to grow, keep them watered if it gets hot. Suggested mulch materials: sawdust, wood shavings, shredded bark, grass clippings, leaf mold, spoiled hay and straw, newspaper, manure (fresh or aged), to name a few. The Gibsons Garden Club meeting is on Thursday, June 18 at 7:30 pm in the Marine Room. Mrs. Carmen Grassie is the guest speaker on the subject of 'flower arrangements'. Members please bring one flower or spray with you. Guests are welcome.

SEA VOYAGE The Henderson Beach float proved to be a very seaworthy vessel when it was swept away in a storm a few weekends ago. It ended up near the Wakefield Inn, undamaged, and fortunately could be identified. After a few phone calls, Pat Randall was contacted and he brought it home safe and sound. Film folk take look B.C. Film Commission location consultant, Mark Des- Rochers spent June 8 and 9 on the Sunshine Coast taking the photographs that will begin a film location file for our area that will be used to promote the film industry. He was visiting the Coast at the invitation of Sunshine Coast Productions who are working with the Economic Development Commission to promote our Coast as a location for feature films and television series. In a busy two day visit, DesRochers, accompanied by Paul Murphy took a boat up the coastline from Gibsons to Pender Harbour and followed that with location shots in Pender Harbour, Sechelt, Roberts Creek and Gibsons. Unable to fit the Sechelt Inlet into the schedule, DesRochers plans a futher visit to photograph the Inlet and the Skookumchuk. While on the Coast DesRochers took the time to meet with local officials and says he strongly encourages the kind of initiative being taken by the Sunshine Coast in promoting the area as a film location. \"It's one of the reasons I'm here,\" he said. \"The other is that there will be at least nine feature films and seven series being shot in B.C. this year and I anticipate that a considerable amount of work will take place outside the lower mainland.\" Paul Murphy, of Sunshine Coast Productions said he was pleased with the two days of shooting and looks forward to continuing to work with the B.C.

I am reassured that provincial funds paid to AquaWest are fully accounted for. It must be understood that provincial auditors were not undertaking an audit of the total operation of AquaWest but limited their investigation to whether public monies had been diverted to private, personal use. No evidence of any such wrong doing was evident. However, it was apparent that AquaWest had overestimated revenue and had several outstanding accounts. That however, is mismanagement, not fraud. On behalf of the local community, His Worship, Bud Koch, Mayor of the District Municipality of Sechelt, is providing leadership in trying to sort out this unfortunate effort. An orderly disposal of assets should see creditors receive a partial payment of their outstanding accounts unpaid by AquaWest.

The very popular 69'ers under the direction of Nikki Weber were accompanied by Connie Wilson on piano and they presented a delightful program which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Jones said he had told the owners that the wall was unsafe in April of 1982. Pressure was removed from the wall after that by excavating behind it, but there is still a question about its stability. Council instructed planner Rob Buchan to write to property owner, Bill Edney, instructing him to take the necessary steps to ensure the wall's stability. Edney will be told that he has 30 days to comply before the town will take matters into its own hands and hire an engineer for which the owner will be charged. However, Graham Edney, the owner's son, told the Coast News last week that the wall was secured with steel augers and cables only a month ago, but the building inspector hasn't been around to see it.

Residents of Pender Harbour and area are preparing for such a treat this Saturday, June 20 when Emerald comes to town. Emerald is a group of local musicians who have been together in fluctuating numbers since 1980. As the name implies, this group favours traditional Celtic tunes, but owing to the talent and versatility of these musicians, they can play just about anything, including some wonderful bluegrass. Step right up and meet them: Cindy Kirk from Roberts Creek, on the fiddle, banjo, guitar - not to mention the penny whistle; Joel Bornstein from Gibsons, handy with bass, ban- FRESH SEAFOOD ��� Fresh Halibut ��� Farm Salmon ^��|l\\ ��� Cocktail Oysters In the Shell S^^n * ^*Bq? all other seasonal seafoods available i 2$�� Live Lobster tO (Order in advance, please) Thursday is SUSHI day.

Terri Jossul has done her first year in the Criminology program at Douglas College in new Westminster this past winter, with some computer courses on the side. Terri intends to return to Douglas next school year and then continue her studies toward a degree in law at one of our universities. \"That will be six or seven years altogether,\" she said, \"and I have every intention of completing them.\" The museum is so well laid out now after last year's work project that both parents and children will find in the displays something to stir keen interest. It was only the dedication of Les Peterson and other citizens who caught his spirit that a museum was ever started. And for years the collection was stored in left over space in the village hall until the present building was constructed, first one floor that had to share space with the village license and insurance office, and then about four years ago, a second floor. The shell collection of the late Charles Bedford is there, classified a few years ago by Mike Hotner, and attractively arranged in the new display cases. A rock collection; a salmon skiff that Hubert Evans built and used, along with a herring rake for the then multitudes of the fish; pioneer hand tools, farm implements, household gadgets, and a 'fresno'.

She was already fanious for outspoken biographies on Elizabeth Taylor and Jackie Onassis when she set her sights on one of the most controversial figures in show business, Frank Sinatra. plihatra was familiar with Kejley's no-holds-barred approach. When the singer learn- edjjaff her latest project, he launcheda $2 million dollar lawsuit tog Stop disallowed and Kelley went ahead. Her resultant book His Way (Bantam) shows that Sinatra had good reason to be apprehensive. There had been other biographies on him in the past but never one like this. Kelley has done a monumental research job and the picture of Sinatra that emerges from her exhaustive probing is somewhat less than flattering. It is a warts- and-all expose that must have sent the singer right through the roof. Kelley goes right back to the beginning when Frank Sinatra Awards day at Elphinstone was also 'Toga Day' for the Grade 12's, flijd these 'classical' scholars received Grade 12 Honour Roll yards from Principal Dave Stigant: Mark Vankleek, Stephen iristian, Gordon Fallis, Peter Beyser, Sean Tetzlaff, Jim jcLean, Marlene Lowden, Shad Light, Dawna Read, Charlotte jrlos, Tammy McQueen, Carolyn Fisher, Tracey Rezansoff, Pan Jay. ���Fran Burnside photo was just a skinny kid growing up in Hoboken, the only son of an overbearing mother and a henpecked father. Sinatra was no great shakes at either school or sports but he did possess a good voice and an innate sense of musicianshp. He set out to hone these talents and was soon performing with a vocal quartet called the Hoboken Four. The group was 'discovered' by Major Bowes and sent on a crosscountry tour. Subsequently, Sinatra branched out as a single and began working small clubs around New Jersey and the Cat- skills. One night, trumpet player, Harry James caught Sinatra's act, liked what he heard and hired the skinny singer as his band vocalist. After a few months with James, Sinatra left to join the better- established Tommy Dorsey aggregation. He stayed with Dorsey for a number of years and had several hit records. In 1943, Sinatra signed a contract with Columbia Records and began working as a single again. But he was famous by this time and playing the top houses. It was the beginning of Sinatra's 'Swoon Crooner' period. He famous by this time and playing the top houses. It was the beginning of Sinatra's 'Swoon went on to Hollywood and superstardom. The basic facts of Sinatra's career are well known and Kitty Kelley reprises them well, adding many new facts and insights. But it is the darker side of the singer's life that truly intrigues her and it is her revelations in this area that make her book truly fascinating. These revelations are singularly unflattering.

But the most fascinating material in Kelley's book deals with Sinatra's notorious Mafia connections, often hinted at but never before spelled out so explicitly. The author had access to secret FBI files and wiretap recordings and they reveal an active connection with the underworld that dates back to Sinatra's earliest years. His hoodlum pals included at various times, such sinister figures as Chicago Mafia Don, Sam Giancana and deported drug czar, Lucky Luciano. During the Kennedy years, Sinatra actually tried to use his friendship with the president to take the heat off Giancana and his fellow mobsters. In fairness to Kitty Kelley, her book is not solely dedicated to chronicling Frank Sinatra's less savoury aspects. She cites the singer's extreme generosity to fellow performers down on their luck and his uncredited donations to countless charities. She also gives him full credit for his valiant fight back from obscurity when his career hit the skids in the early 50's. And she lauds his musical accomplishments for Frank Sinatra, despite his darker side, remains a song interpreter without parallel, arguably the greatest talent that the popular music business has ever produced. His Way is a thoroughly absorbing book about a complex man, that certainly deserves its current best-seller status.

GIBSONS REALTY LTD. Sunnycrest Shopping Centre, Gibsons, B.C. VON 1V0 RES: 886-7134 OFFICE: 886-2277 j.R. (JIM) MUNRO Editor: Let's shut down the Hanford Nuclear Reactor (before it shuts us down). From the book of Revelations: \"...and the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.\" The Ukrainian word for wormwood is Chernobyl. The Hanford Nuclear Reactor in southern Washington is similar in design to the Chernobyl No. 4 reactor that melted down on April 26, 1986. If the aging reactor melts down, it will deposit significant radioactive material within a similar 300 mile radius from the Hanford reactor site. Travelling on the wind northward, this includes southern Vancouver Island, the lower mainland, Kamloops, Revelstoke, Fernie and Blairmore, Alberta. A more serious meltdown will bring death to some of these areas. The nuclear reactor contains over 800,000 pounds of Uranium 238 enriched with about one per cent Uranium 235. In one year this reactor will produce approximately 300 pounds of Plutonium in its 16 thousand fuel rods. What are the chances of a meltdown of the nuclear reactor? It's designed life expectancy was 20 years, ending New Year's Eve, 1983. However, as there has been an escalating nuclear arms race following the failure of Nixon's 'detente', there has been unreasonable pressure on the reactor to produce more Plutonium for America's nuclear weapons production of approximately 2000 warheads per pear. Following the Chernobyl 'ac cident', a six member panel appointed by the American Department of Energy recommended 80 changes to equipment and procedures at the aging Hanford facility. Two members wanted the nuclear reactor shut down permanently. The panel had stated that no attempt should be made to extend the reactor's life span. However, an aging Reagan administration has ordered maximum production at these Plutonium factories. The Hanford nuclear reactor has been shut down for six months to improve 'safety' from nuclear accidents. It is scheduled to start up on July 7. This dangerous, aging beast threatens us here at home, even as the global nuclear industry threatens all life on earth. It is time we shut it down. There have been too many deaths to speak of nuclear safety. There will be a protest demonstration and non-violent civil disobedience in Richland, Washington on July 7. Let's make an effort to be there. Robert Lord Labour fight justified Editor: Our valiant peace advocate, Alan Wilson bewilders me. On May 18, he gave us an excellent article decrying the Canadian purchase of nuclear submarines and I have already written a letter to Defence Minister Beatty using the good arguments provided. Now in Coast News June 1, he gives us a long, windy dissertation decrying the active opposition the trade unions are mounting against the passage of Bill 19.

Olfert 885-4568 Hungry Thirties, my brother William who worked as an electrician for the West Kootenay Power and Light Company, (subsidiary of the powerful Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company) organized the Electrical Workers' Union for the area. It was dangerous for him, with a wife and small children, to _efy the big bosses, but he brought it off because he was doing the job of an electrical engineer and saving them the considerable extra cost. I remember too, when I was a young woman far back in 1933, long before Alan Wilson was born, Adolf Hitler was elected Chancellor of Germany by an overwhelming Vote. One of the first things he did was smash the trade unions and send their leaders to concentration camps. The right of people who work for wages to join trade unions is entrenched in Canada's labour laws. I believe the steps taken by the B.C. Federation of Labour to protect the rights of our wage earners against unfair labour laws were correct and timely. They have nothing to do with the Peace Movement. I think Alan Wilson's criticism of them is out of place and based on dubious reasoning. Isabel Ralph W .Through the mist of sorrow, watch for the soft beacons of friendship to guide you.

Hopkins Landing and other small neighbourhood residents were surprised to find that our next door neighbour, the Town of Gibsons, was making plans for our future without telling or asking us about it. It seems to be some sort of clear inference that because we choose to live in a rural lifestyle, we can't possibly be intelligent enough to chart our own future. But we have charted our own future and it, perhaps, is something the Gibsons Council should be reading. We certainly have recognized that our little area is unique and we are flattered that someone else wants it, but we still have to wonder exactly which attribute is the basis of the attraction. Just one further note, while some of our more unique area residents advocate taking over the Town of Gibsons, we wouldn't do it without first discussing it with them. We do, however, invite everyone to an Open House for Area F's Waste Management Strategy on Wednesday, June 17 at 7 pm at Langdale Elementary School Library. John Shaske Sovereignty?

A few days ago we were with a group of people invited to visit the US military sponsored barge anchored in the middle of beautiful Hotham Sound.

Coast News, June 15,1987 An eight year old Gibsons girl has been refused a business licence to sell lemonade on her family's commercial property because it trespasses on four feet of the municipal road allowance and the town administration does not want to set a precedent. The enterprising young lady does not want to be identified. She already feels very embarrassed and wants her friends to see her in a positive light. Her mother stated that her other children . are ail industrious and have some kind of summer employment. This particular daughter came up with the idea of a lemonade stand. \"What about a business licence?\" asked an older sister. So, they contacted the municipal hall and discovered it would cost $50. The parents decided that the positive experience of being a responsible citizen engaged in a commercial endeavour would be worth the money, so their daughter applied for the licence. The application was refused. The Kinsmen, on the other Garry'sCrane&Gat 886-7028 hand, did have a licence granted to sell refreshments from a mobile unit.: They will be restricted to ; local parks and community events. Gibsons Mayor Diane Strom, along with other town council members, has expressed a serious concern for the safety of young people i on skateboards and the people they may collide with. Apparently, some skateboarders have developed the practice of utilizing public roads with steep inclines and have not always confined themselves to daylight hours. The mayor wants parents to be aware of some of these practices and take an active interest in the safety of their children. Superintendent of Works, Bob Marchand, has already started warning skateboarders that he sees placing themsleves or others in danger. He has the power to seize the boards if necessary and will start doing so unless skateboarders begin using caution and common sense in their recreation.

Runner-up was Hilary Dorst. ���Detty Edgecombe photo SCRD upset Fluctuating assessments, a loss of the machinery and equipment tax, and shifting in budget categories has left some Sunshine Coast residents with a whopping increase in taxes and regional district directors are hearing about it. At last week's meeting of the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) a letter was received from Greg deMontreve of Sechelt, expressing his displeasure in the recent increase in his taxes. \"Perhaps you feel that reading about the circus of your get togethers where you toss billingsgate at one another and anyone impertinent enough to question any of your actions is sufficient value to me to merit your existence in the style you want to become accustomed to enjoy. It isn't,\" he wrote. No second minibus Although the expansion of the minibus service on the Sunshine Coast has been at the top of the funding priority list of the B.C. Transit Board for three years, the Sunshine Coast Regional District board received notice at last week's meeting that there will be no funding for a second minibus this year. In her letter to the district, Municipal Affairs Minister Rita Johnston assured the board that \"I and the B.C. Transit Board of Directors remain committed to the timely implementation of all outstanding requests on the funding priority list.\" Area A Director Gordon Wilson called the response \"extremely unfortunate\" and commented, \"I don't think they can be aware of the urgency of the need for this service.\" He suggested that the regional district write a letter to the minister \"expressing our extreme disappointment.\" But Chairman Jim Gurney questioned whether that was ; adequate. \"We may have to go further,\" he said. \"We have people paying taxes for this who don't have access to the service. Langdale to host open house The Sunshine Coast Regional ', District will be hosting an open .' house from 7 pm to 9 pm on ; Wednesday, June 17, 1987 in : the library at Langdale Elemen- ; tary School to acquaint ; residents with the draft West Howe Sound Waste Management Plan and the draft West Hose Sound Official Community Plan. The Waste Management Plan will apply to the West Howe Sound Area (Town of Gibsons and Electoral Areas E and F). It has been formulated by consulting engineers with input from provincial agencies. It incorporates planning and technical considerations as well as public input received at the May 28, 1986 open house in Gibsons. The plan provides for continuation of on-site sewage disposal in Electoral Areas E and Fj with a minimum parcel size requirement of half acre and larger for subdivision purposes. The Town of Gibsons would be served by its community sewer system. The plan also suggests regular shoreline water quality monitoring, holding tank regulations for boats and encourages regular septic tank pump-outs. The West Howe Sound Community Plan, which received amended second reading on June 11, 1987, is based on a technical background document prepared by the Regional District, comments received from provincial agencies, and input obtained from citizens through initial drafts of a settlement plan and through a \"resident's planning committee''. It applies to the settled portions of Electoral Area F and presents goals, objectives, and policies for future growth and development. Maybe we should opt out.\" Director Jack Marsden agreed, \"People in Tuwanek don't have access to it. It's useless. I think we should get rid of it.\" Wilson however -^disagreed saying that the service wasn't useless, only inadequate, while Gibsons Alderman Norm Peterson said that the service was being abused. Asked for clarification of his comment in an interview last Friday, Peterson told the Coast News that while he wasn't sure what use was specified in the bylaw covering the minibus, he had always assumed it was for the use of older people and those who didn't drive. \"I see people taking it simply as a convenience,\" he said and pointed out that it is in competition with the privately owned Gibsons minibus service. The issue was referred to the Transportation Committee. Directors said they had been receiving angry phone calls from residents whose assessments had gone up or down with no explanation of what's happening. Chairman Jim Gurney told the meeting that the recent changes in assessments and other factors make it impossible to explain increases on a general basis. In order to help people figure out what's happening, the SCRD has set up a small program where people can bring in this year's tax notice and last year's tax notice and a staff member will explain what has happened on an individual basis. He also reminded directors that things won't necessarily improve next year because the provincial government has already announced that they will be taking a bigger bite of the rural taxes collected. This year the amount taken by the province to cover rural roads and policing was 13 mils, next year it will be increased to 17 mils. Things are also looking bad for resort owners. In a letter received later at the same meeting, the Village of Telkwa wrote to bring the SCRD's attention to the fact that the new provincial budget states: \"Effective September 30, 1988, for taxation in 1989, the preferential tax treatment of seasonal resort properties will be eliminated. Seasonal resorts will be taxed in the same way as other commercial properties.\" Directors were uncertain of how many property owners on the Sunshine Coast would be affected and agreed that they needed more information before they could assess the local impact of that change. Before the end of the meeting, Chairman Jim Gurney served notice that he would be introducing a motion to be sent to the Union of B.C. Municipa lities (UBCM) convention \"that the UBCM undertake to study how taxes are spent that are raised from rural taxation.\" He said that Richard Taylor, Executive Director of the UBCM, had told him that such a study was done by the provincial government several years ago but they had refused to release the results.

School Board Trustee Dave Mewhort wants the School Board to go back to restraint. He will be bringing forth a motion at the next board meeting, \"That over the next four weeks the board continue to meet in an effort to make significant and real cuts in the 1987/88 budget so that this district can carry a major surplus into the 1988/89 fiscal period, to avoid further tax increases.\" He states, \"The current school tax rate in School District No. 46 had risen by 50.7 per cent for property owners Gibsons to restructure? The Town of Gibsons has received a $5000 grant from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs to conduct a study on the feasibility of restructuring to expand the town's boundaries. The announcement was made at last week's meeting of the Planning Committee. The study was originally recommended in the Gibsons Economic Strategy which was completed earlier this year. In her letter to the town, Minister Rita Johnston suggested that the town work closely with ministry staff members when implementing the study. Clerk administrator Lorraine Goddard told the Coast News that meetings would soon be held between ministry personnel and Gibsons representatives to establish guidelines for the study, before a restructuring committee is set up. Burnside resigns from EDC Gibsons Chamber of Commerce representative John Burnside has resigned from the Economic Development Commission (EDC). In a letter to the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) received at their meeting last week, Burnside said, \"My role on the commission as I saw it was to provide continuity following the able contribution made by former Acting Chairman Barry Wilbee. It is my judgement that the transition from the original commission to the present is now complete.\" The SCRD will now be requesting that the Gibsons Chamber send a list of three people from which they will select a new representative. Sechelt Alderman Joyce Kolibas moved that the board send Burnside a letter accepting his resignation and expressing their gratitude for the work he's done. The motion passed unanimously. b) ourUS weel y A jKeno \\on_ �� ^dC���. cleaned.
