Tragedy stirs public While rewards now total $2,- 000 for information leading to the arrest of the killer of 26- yearold Myrna L. Inglis, Gibsons, individuals have offered' pledges of $100 for the setting up of a scholarship memorial fund. This fund would cover both members of the7 Inglis..family who suffered ;fataiities within the last year, Myrna and David, who died after a motorcycle accident. The funeral service in Harvey Funeral Home Family Chapel was held Wednesday, Sqpt. 17 at 2 p.m. and was attended by a large number bf people. Rev. James L. Williamson officiated. Burial was made iii Seaview Cemetery. Besides her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Hugh. Inglis, Myrna leaves two sisters, Mrs. W.

Refreshments will be served.- A \"letter .suggesting commercial entertainment be allowed on Sundays, caused Gibsons council at its meeting Monday night to prepare a bylaw'cover-' ing such events on Sundays for presentation and discussion at the next -meeting. The letter came from Ray Boothroyd, on behalf of R. L. Jackson, 'owner of. Twilight Theatre^in Gibsons. Mayor Wally Peterson, stated that presentatibn of a' bylaw is only part of the procedure. It must be voted on at the next municipal election which would be Dec. .6, and a 60 percent majority, would be- necessary, to pass it. .������-/ All electors will vote on this issue as it is not a money bylaw.. '. Under the. provincial Municipal Act Sunday, entertainriient is allowed if the community desires it. If the bylaw, passes it would concern all forms of entertainment,, sports and such like. Time for starting such public events would be Sunday, 1:30 p.m. Another letter, and from the B.C. Centennial committee, urged council to get busy and get its Centennial committee operating. Discussion revealed that senior citizens were lining up to see that Gibsons Centennial grant was spent on behalf of the community. Just what project is intended no one knows yet. tA business license was granted John Harvey for the. opening up of a flower cottage shop adjacent to the funeral home. Ted peters of the provincial family court department, now setting up public advisory committees to deal with local problems affecting the youth, outlin. ed the idea to council and said that a committee had beert established and would be active shortly-to continue after Jan. 1 into the next year. These individuals serve without remunerr ation andafe. on call to help decide with the aid of judges and other officials the^ best course to take in a given situation.

Staff changes showed that 36 had left and 47 had been added to the teaching staff. With the department of education how processing referendum ,No. 10 it was decided that as Pollution survey asked by SGEPS ��������� A pollution survey covering the Regional District water survey area, also a meeting involving Gibsbns council, Martin Dayton, professional engineer in charge of the area w a ter scheme and the district medical health officer, Dr. D.L. Gem- mill, have been proposed. Both were proposed by the Sunshine Coast Environment Protection society in a letter signed by Peter Baker, chairman, and read at Monday nights meeting of Gibsons council. It was addressed to the mayor and council of Gibsons. The letter 1 suggests that planning to combat pollution must be done on a regional basis even if it is carried out by a committee. The letter being lengthy will be published in full by the Coast News next week. GRADES CURTAILED . As the result of a delegation appearing before the school board at its Sept. 11meeting it was decided that Halfmoon Bay school would be confined to teaching classes from grades one to three. soon as plans were returned a special meeting would be held to prepare the referendum.

Barry Jenks asked that the public educational meetings be continued just as soon as school work settles down Minister of Health Ralph Loffmark by letter stated that federal cutback of funds which go towards dental programs now - make a dental program- impossible. Principal T.. G. Ellwood informed the board that owing to brief recess periods it was decided that vending machines providing hot drinks should be installed at Elphinstone school. H. Klyne Headley was granted the use of the Elphinstone auditorium Oct. 24 for a concert of the B.C. Boys Choir. Gibsons Sea Cavalcade committee was also given permission to use the same hall for a cabaret dance in October to help offset the deficit facing the committee. Both were granted free use of the hall. at Elphinstone No doubt many parents are interested in knowing what's happening at Elphinstone Secondary school this year? A special Parents' Night has been arranged by the school for Thursday, Sept 18 at 8. p.m. in the Elphinstone School auditorium. It is hoped that many parents will take this opportunity to become acquainted with the details of some of the major changes that have been made this year, and also with the reasons behind these changes. Both the shift system and the semester system will be explained. Parents will also be introduced to the basic requirements of the complex B.C. Secondary School curriculum and the standards of student work that are required. Coast Neks, Sept. 17, 1969. Serving the Mt.

Senior citizen problem Public facilities for senior citizens of.a general practical use appear to be in the category of a waste of time. Usually senior citizens, having attained the age of knowirig what they want, prefer very little, resulting in the general feeling that they want to be left alone. .-',..\" The letter in last week's Coast News in which; Mrs. M. E. Telford placed before Gibsons riiayor arid aldermen the suggestion that coming Centennial funds for Gibsons area be used in the Gibsons area. The basis for her argument was that the general Centennial funds for the Sunshine Coast were to be used by the Recreation Centre proposed at Roberts Creek. She argued that few senior citizens would find their way from this area to Roberts Creek Recreation Centre for recreation purposes as most of them have no transportation��� and she might have.added that apparently they are not interested in what might be termedmass recreation. ; . '���':, '���':���'���. ,'��� ���.', .-'��� 7; ��� .;��� ;./\"��� y- Efforts at striving towards making jsenidr citizens into captive audiences fail except when bingo: might be the lure., The experiencei of the; Kinsmen cluib with its last Centennial project is a good example. After obtairiing suggestions from senior citizens a large checkerboard was laid out at Kinsmen park with all necessary equipment. The Coast News offered to make available the sum of $25 as the major prize for a tourney, run on a once:a week basis during the summer. The pensioner organization appointed av chairman to get something started���- but nothing happened.

Why are soine individuals even proposing, that limits be placed on freedom of the press? As we see it, there are three main causes: 1. The press, particularly television, has started making news rather than simply reporting events. 2. The news media, newspapers as well as television, have forgotten to keep factual reports separate from personal opinions, and predictions. , 3. The press seems obsessed with reporting the exception, rather than the rule in all areas of human events. And bad news almost always dominates the headlines. At one time, the press displayed factual news in one place and opinion (clearly identified) in another. The fallacy of the interwoven opinion is that the writer may be wrong. The ideal behind freedom of the press is that if the public-is fully and fairly informed, then, though the citizens may stumble, they will eventually stride down the right road to a deriiocratic destination. ������\"������' If the public is to make a proper decision, it should not be influenced secretly. ���,;,;. ���['���',' ������������';. We think that the press should accurately reflect life in today's society. Therefore, the one teenager who gets in trouble should not receive more news space than the 100 who make special achievements. , ; .'- The press representatives argue that they \"don't make the bad news, but only report it.\" However they do present a warped and unrealistic picture of daily life. s . v The press dwells on crime, violence,.controversy, war, etc. It is no wonder thait a person oftenJ feels depressed after reading the front pa ge of the average daily newspaper. ���Charles Richards, in the Palos (Regional Newspaper, Palos {Heights, HI. * * You as a free citizen have the right and, perhaps you will agree, the obligation to read the news ��� to know what is going on. ,_ . # ���; ��� # ��� #'.\"���' :: .'.'���\"��� '.'

By A. R. BUCKLEY Plant Research Institute, ..' Ottawa 4-^.7'k7 ;>.... . GARDEN ECOLOGY; Perhaps you have moved into a home built on a lot; with an unusual soil or site aspect. In such cases you would be wise to get plants that 7 are adaptable to the site, rather than change the\" site conditions to suit the plants you wish to grow. It may cost considerably less and,in the long run could be very interesting. Yoii would, in a very general .way, be, practising garden ecology. Although ecology is a botanical term dealing with the study of plants growing together in their natural enyironriienH you could use exotic or native ornamental plants best suited to the environment of your, lot. , There are usually /three choices in selecting plants. You can consider only >: the cultural requirements of your favorite plants and excavate,, replace! soil, install drain tile, construct windbreaks or shade sources and remove existing trees1 to accommodate these plants/This is expensive and very often dif-\"* ficult. The second choice is to grow; only those plants that will flourish without changing the soil1 or site. This might 'elitnin- ate many of the better garden plants and could turn your landscape into a woodland or semi-desert scene, or a combination of both. The ultimate choice, and perhaps the most satisfactory one, is to follow a combination of these two. For example, rather than drain or fill a wet, boggy corner,;why not develop a small natural pool with boggy margins and ,use plant niaterial adapted to 'these, conditions? An exposed, dry place would be planted with drought resistant plants. A wooded slope west of the house would accommodate ferns and shade-loving plants Along the edge of a shallow .wet ditch that might be running through your property, you. could plant the Siberian dogwoods and ; enjoy tjheir ��� bright red bark all winter. If your favorite flowers are roses, enough soil could be excavated for a rose garden on a level stretch to. the side or in the middle of the back garden. : Before selecting the required plants/'consider the soil ��� its pH (degree of acidity or alkalinity), texture, type (sand, loam, clay), depth and drainage. Also examine site exposure to sun, windy and the de; gree of, shading from existing '\"^\" ...:������;��� COAST trees, fences and neighboring buildings. .���. ��� ���. '��� ���^yy-'K\",''. The hardy rugged Russian olive tree is one;of7the most droughtrresistant small 7 trefes, available; it will7-also tolerate a high level of road salt in the soil. Hawthorne are also well adapted to dry places.- On the other hand' the_ bald cypress which. is growing at the Plant Research Institute's arboretum, will grow-..oni any kind of soil-arid is one of the few trees which will stand; wet, swainpy soils. The tariiarack or European larch is another deciduous . corie-bearing 7 tree that will grow well in pporly drained soils. The\" hemlock is an evergreen that: will thrive in shade, but needs good, drainage and rich soil. y.y _ The black locust is a very fast-growing tree and is . extremely drought-riesistal-it, but the wood is brittle and it is subject to attacks of borers v and needs\" frequent spraying in early spring. 7 The common lilac is a very good drought-resistant; plant that thrives in a neutral or slightly alkaline soil, in full sun but likes an ample suppy of organic matter and fertilizer. Nearly all viburnums grow well in poor soils and will tolerate shade conditions: . \"7 Daylilies grow best in good rich moist soils but -? tolerate poor soil conditions and; will grow in part shade. The Japanese iris grows well in a good moist soil, but will enjoy almost swampy conditions. In fact, the best location for these is in a .special bed by \"vthe side of the lily pool which is partly immersed mv^vater. ��� 7; The rose mallow Tmust have wet moist soil and full sun. Tall delphiniums - do .best in well- drained'., soil arid will withstand part shade but they must be protected from high winds.' Most bulbs require a well- drained soil because their large thick roots need air for survival.' .:'_ For shaded; conditions, look to the woodlands for Dutch- iriiari's breeches' and similar plants. For desert-like conditions, choose .those plants with large fleshy;* leaves like the stonecrop and hardy cactus. By following garden ecology, you can for a reasonable expense* arrive at a garden plan you will^enjoy. Of course it is most advantageous if your lot is fairly large with a diversity; of soil conditons. Such lots are often less expensive to purchase as compared to smaller, uniform building lots'. : v ���.. ���������ir-y NEWS.. . . rppr ; FIVE YEARS AGO School enrollment ; increased by about 84 pupils according to a tally taken after schools had settled down following opening exercises. , St. Mary's Hospital Society is awaiting; Svord . to move equipment into the newly constructed hospital at Sechelt.

I did not linger in bed as I knew I must catch the 8 -a.m. train to Los Mochis on the coast and I hadn't yet bought my ticket. I soon paid dearly-for that lack- of foresight. - Reaching the Chihuahua Al Pacifico, Railway7 station at 7:30 a.m., I discovered a long lineup between myself ^and the ticket booth. For this was Saturday and everyone, Mexicanos as well as touristas were leaving town for the weekend. Luggage was dumped in mound's about the tiny; robin 7 amdngstv the sitting and standing and ^milling' people. I added my heavy packsack to- the debris, though hoping no one would expropriate it while I stood in line. Until 9 a.m. when I finally purchased my ticket, I had .plenty of time to wring my hands and consider why I was Wringing theiri. For here were two ticket windows yet only one of them open with such a huge line-up. How inefficient, I thought. By 8:30 I was'7 still miles from the ticket wicket yet the 8 a.m. train had already left. Growing consterna- tiori.overcari.e my hesitancy to usfe: Spanish, so I asked a pes- senger, Que pasa? This precipitated some c on Ver sat ioii ariiongst the nearby Mexicanosj; who decided there would be a second train a las diez or at 10 a.m. Meanwhile, if I'd had'a friend I could have bought my ticket much sooner. For in a manner which would seem highly im moral to us, the Mexicanos were circumventing the egalitarian but tiring business of waiting in line.1 They would*leave a friend to hold their place in line while they crushed up to the ticket window and oozed their way in by osmosis until they could reach a hand in-and buy their tickets. As they always -returned successful it seemed to be a practice condoned by the vendors. One encounters this sort of behaviour over and over again in Latin America., At first it seems \"exasperating and grossly unfair. But one begins to sense -that it implies an oft healthy disregard for orderliness and greater appeal to trie imagination of the individual in authority. An incident in Peru might illustrate this a little more; ? I was returning from the Andes to Lima via a narrow, steep walled canyon whose,river, Tthe Riinac, was now in full flood. Our col- lectivo\" or passenger car had to wait in an endless, line-up for two hours until it got moving again. Our driver, impatient at the line and the late hour, de- toured and tried to crash the line about two-thirds of the way nearer its head'. A policeman directed traffic at that spot. Instead of acting out of policy and making us return to the end of the line, he acted spontaneously, holding back some towering, indignant trucks while we crept into place. r Our bags stowed away in the overhead rack of our two car Primera Especial Autpvagen ($9 to Los Mochis, a twelve hour ride)v we jolted underway and , set off across the high Mexican plateau, westward and coast- rAXHICN NEWT This year back-to-school hits the big time!\" No longer are clothes for junior merely imitations of Dad's.

Everybody laughed; 7-7 I had a young chihuaJiuaense sitting beside me, speaking English as he goes to high school in Los Angeles. He had been home for Christmas holidays. He seemed pleased and surprised I 'spoke a few words of'Spanish. And he was most eager to explain new words to me and aid me in the pronunciation of towns we passed such as Cuauhtemoc and Pedernailes. Cuauhtemoc, I was told, was an Aztec nobleman who resisted Cortes by. refusing to tell where a rich gold . treasure was buried,, despite ruthless torturing. Also, from Luis, my friend, I learned the expression feas caras or ugly faces which is used with malice towards undesirable norteameri- cahps. I was to see examples of these feas caras later on. As we talked, our train wound gradually up into the Sierra Ma- dre Occidental, our passage punctuated by horn constantly blowri at cows on the track. The character of the country began to change. From extensive flat cornfields and numerous adobe farmhouses we passed into forests of short bushy pine, the odd pulpmill and wooden houses. Here the population was sparser and farming less evident. This was getting into the Tarahuma Indian country and we began to see squat Indian women bend- > ing oyer, washing clothes in the cool mountain streams. Some tourists stepped down at Creel, the Indian town, to have a closer look at these people and their rugged land. For the expression of the land had chang ed since we left the flat plateau: from brie of placidity and domes- : ticatiori to one \"of exciting relief and wildness. Thin patches of show appeared in the higher spots. Numerous thick, nearly horizontal strata broke ��� up the , land into a series of well-defined terraces. But it was at the sum- riiit where these flat-lying sedimentary rocks were given their boldest, most striking expression. The Barranca de Cobre or Gorge of Copper is the name of this canyon, which in places descends 2,000 ft. deeper than the Grand canyon. Conscious of the tourist content of bur train, the engineer stopped beside the canyon while we scrambled out and had a look. Past Indians vending large juicy oranges and discs of sweet bread we walked, to the gorge's precipitous edge. The depths of the yawning chasrh were lost in shadow while the ridges clothed in pine, were illuininated in the mellow rays of the setting sun. 7,77 Seeing irie riaaking careful photos with iriy Minolta camera, an elder Mexican couple posed for a pahoramica while I clicked trieiri with their camera. Returning to the train, I bought several oranges for a few centa- vos while iriy young C-iihuahua friend bought sonae bread and we shared them: I also gave, one to a dark skinned hombre across the aisle with very handsome features and black thick hair and full handlebar moustaches. \"GTracia*,s\" be said, with a full flashing smile. As the sun sank towards the coast we descended windingly into the looming jungle towards Los Mochis, our brakes squealing in protest at the steep and tortuous grade. Since the marked changes in vegetation and topography were obscured by darkness, it might be instructive to consider my dayflight descent / from Durango to Mazatlan, also through the Sierra Madre Occidental, but about 350 kilometers to the south and seven and a half months later. To quote from my diary, August 6, 1969: \"Af we began to descend, the land became much more exciting and all the people were standing up peering out the bus windows towardsmy side and talking quick ly and exclaiming Mire! Mire! at the droploff. (If this had been in the Andes and an Indian bus load the scenery would have been taken for granted.)\" For here was the Espinoza del Dia- Dio, a formidable rock spine in a precipitous land of plunging ridges, buttressed by flat lying strata forming uniformly thick . white ribs through which the road was cut. And here was..-'mist welling up from the hot tropical coast; a precursor, a herald of climatic changes and a mysterious cloak enhancing the beauty '-��� of the steep land. * ; Yes, here the placidity of the Mexican plateau is suddenly transformed into an exciting array of deep canons and thrusting ridges r^- a tooographical relief iroiri'the irionbtony of a flat plain;-Such a feeling I had last, sumirier when I approached the Coppermine Mts. after flying over a long expanse of featureless Canadian Shield north of Yel-owknife. As usual, the charige :in vegetation was remarkable arid decisive ��� from pine forests alone to thick tropical broad-leafed vegetation of a striking, nearly blinding greenness.

Can you get a divorce on grounds of marriage breakdown? . 2. Can you get a divorce if your husband deserts you? 3. I have heard a person can get a divorce on grounds of three years separation ��� is this fight? - 4. Where a wife is suing her husband for a divorce on grounds pf adultery, can she get a divorce if the husband admits the adultery in a letter to the courthouse? No, no, no, and no! Question 1. The term marriage breakdown is very misleading. The Divorce act does use this term, but it sets out specifically what it means by it, and this includes only imprisonment for certain terms, three years alcoholism, three Copyright .applied for years narcotic addiction, three years disappearance, noncon- summation, three years separation other than that caused by the desertion of the person suing and five year.s separation where the person suing has deserted. Question 2. Desertion is not a ground for divorce. There must be three or five years separation ��� see the answer to Question 1. The person deserted may, however, sue for a judicial separation and maintenance-payments,, etc., if the desertion has lasted two years. Question 3. Not necessarily If you have deserted your spouse you must wait five years Question 4. This is not possible. There must be a trial in public court and the adultery must be proved by sworn testimony.

These late- run fish are of good size running up to about l4Vk lbs.\"iri.weight. He also mentions that a few heavy chinooks to 28 lbs. were picked up after, several weeks of a near-dearth of the big ones. The best coho scores were seen at Cape Roger Curtis on the southwest tip of Bowen Island and in waters next door at Worlcombe arid Popham Islands. Second best for the cohoes was the Gower Point to Roberts Creek shoreline; where we were, and the Cowan Point vicjnity. Fishing sites where the heavy chinooks-were taken were Point Atkinson, Gower Point and the Point Grey Bell Buoy. Incidentally, despite the fact that moochers are generally conceded to be the fishing experts, the fishery officer remarks that trollers have been keeping pace with them. From the Federal Dept. of Fisheries, Vancouver On the Sunshine Coast it was spotty, but during the bite periods many anglers met with some pretty fair coho action in waters of the upper section of the Sunshine: Coast and several took limits. Apparently Saltery Bay was one of the better fishing sites as was Scotch Fir Point the west shore of Harwood Island, and the area from Coho (Kiddie) Point to Crescent Bay at the top end of ^Texada Island. ���';��� 7'7'fVV;'.

Homes where there are young children, or perhaps a person seriously ill, are left without light and heat. Industry and business literally close down until repairs are made. This can take several hours, or even longer. Iri the meantime traffic control systems arid fire fighting services can cease to function. Conceivably a patient in a hospital operating / room, iron lung or oxygen tent could die. Wilful damage to insulators and powerline equipment is punishable by laWi and flVlr. Hoare warns that Hydro will prosecute in every case where sufficient evidence can ibe obtained.

LEGION A new film-maker named Bert Terizer aims some sharp barbs at the distorted values of to-day's fad-conscious society in the Warner Bros^Seven Arts motion picture comedy 2,000 Year? Later (after the Fall of Rome). Written, produced and directed, by Tenzer, the Technicolor motion picture stars Terry-Tho- mas. 7 Edward Everett Horton, PatHarrington and Lisa Seagram, along with John Abbott, Murray Roman, Michael Christian, singer Monty Rock HI and famed designed Rudi Gernreich, who plays himself. Utilizing new visual tech niques, 2000 Years Later deals with the mind-benders, the hippies, politicians, military, swinging jet setters and staid senior citizens -���indeed, virtually everyone, under or over age 30. In screening this film for hundreds of different types of people;, he noticed how each seemed to see completely different things in it, and come away with completely different res- poiisesto it. What he found so challenging about this type of visual film making is that it forces' the individual to interpret and relate according to his own personal experiences, and, in so doing, unmasks the attitudes of the viewers as well as the creators. . The maldng of the film ended up > with more than a satirical look at our life and times 2,000 years-after the fall of Rome. - Terrance Albert Garlick, 25, son of-Mr. and _ Mrs. James P.
