Access to Hall . '. Regional District help sought by Egmont group Chamber project DESPITE lack of volunteers, Secfcflft last Sunday. The sis^een-foot^ide 2>}(|y 01 DrOSBCUllOIl ALTHOUGH a local resident has offered to donate ten feet of his property to- : ward an access road to the Egmont Community Hall, school trustees have refused to co-operate by. donating ten feet of school property, thereby forcing residents Jto. use a private road in getting to the hall, This situation was brought before the regional district directors at the last meet- ing, March 9. However, Chairman Norm Watson explained that there appears to be little the directors might do at this time. \"These people think we represent them and to some extent we do,\" he said. He said he had phoned the school board chairman who denied any knowledge of the offer of 10 feet by the local resident, and stated that- space at the Egmont school is so scarce that to consider giving away 10 feet is unthinkable. Asked by Watson how he would feel if he had given away a chunk of property and on realizing, he had. been too generous asked for a miserable 10 'feet back, only to be refused^ ChairmanTJoe^Horvathrexplain-\"' ed he was only one on the school board. Director John Dunlop said he was unaware of the letter being sent to the regional district but added that he was the resident prepared to donate the 10 foot strip and that the school board was well aware of his offer. Directors agreed to acknowledge the letter but advised the residents that there is little they can do at this time. PLANNING REPORT Directbt: J&rne*-^ a meeting with a planner from the departv ment of municipal affairs, stated main objectives suggested ��� were a major overall plan of the area for land use and secondly: land use of specific areas. . It,.was also suggested that student planners from UBC be contacted and asked to correlate and up-date existing maps of the district, .. , ,', ������.' V Secretary-Treasurer, Charles Gooding, had agreed to seek the services of a planning student, while on a visit to, UBC; this it transpired was not as simple as had been believed, Ho reported back that jobs during summer recess awaited tho ' students and that it was impossible to obtajn one ', under between $-150 and $500 per month. ..���)y!.T,ne board agreed to pay $500 should a student be found to accept the position. student for three to four months. Asked if the planning grant was permanent or just for the first year, Mr. Chris Woodward of the Department of Municipal. Affairs, present at the meeting, said he would assume it would continue. \"Once a grant is made it is usually continued,\" he said. BUILDING BY-LAW Discussing the building by-laws, included in the planning function of the board, the chairman advised that it should be well explained to the public in advance \"not only in the press but at meetings with organizations and possibly even public meetings,\" he said. ��� ^Director John Dunlop; stating he represented what was probably the most rural area in the district, agreed that great diplomacy would be required. Director Cliff Gilker disagreed with a pussyfooting attitude, pointing out that all directors knew.of situations whereby,someone might build a good home, possibly in the price range of $14,000 only to have the next lot owner put up a tar paper shack. \"This Fmmediately devalues the whole area which is not good enough. This is what we are out to stop and it is up to us to take the first step,\" he said. , Advisability of obtaining expert advice on the building cade was discussed and Mr. Woodward suggested he send over a man from Victoria who would be happy to outline pertinent details to the board.

MEETING with > the Sunshine Coast Regional District last week in Secheit, Chris Woodward of the, department of municipal affairs, advised against establishment of too many garbage dumps. His warning followed a run-dowh by Chairman Norm Watson who explained that three dumps had originally 'been planned but a fourth was being considered this type of dump to which Woodward objected. > Watson agreed that an open . dump posed problems in that' people quickly fille,d the entranceway rather than deposit their garbage in the.actual,dump. Director Cliff Gilker said, he felt it better they dump indiscriminately at the .dump than elsewhere. ., , : ���',,:.. Director Lorne Wolvcrton stressed the Chairman Wa^on advised the board that��� for Egmont. which would be unserviced, point that Gibsons had a dump which is this was well within tho planning budget simply provided for residents in order to and that it would be necessary to hire the eliminate discriminate dumping. It\"' was kept locked, consequently he had certain refuse the collector will not touch and it is therefore creating an eyesore on his lot. ,, . It was explained^hat a,dump has been located at Pender Harbour! and application is being made for it to the crown. ..;,��� Secheit has a dump, which is almost full and another Is badly needed. The chairman, said he thought the council would bo more pleased Jo get out of the garbage business and tna't\" the regional board had a site in niind at East Porpoise Bay. ,, Another location was available in the Gibsons area- which could serve the outside areas. Director Fred Fcchey; how-\" even.i)salc| he could not speak for council but it was |ils belief the present arrangement which has so far, proved economical, Is considered satisfactory. i Director Wolvcrton commented that people are already complaining that the Gibsons dump is edging into Langdale 'Creek. i < wJ^JMave, E3��b6^''pew_2wd.,on ,a Coast Arte Cc___r_l __e___e Fes&rsl,., _Mt_h ��� -wia ^be fce_a. ca.

';���..'. ��� ..���,.- . t ���-by Mary Tinkley MRS. ELIZABETH Wakefield, who is affectionately known as. Granny Wakefield among her friends in Selma Park and, Secheit, was born near Worcester, Englaod, 86 years ago. She married Edward Wakefield whom she had known since they were children together at school. He had emigrated to Canada where he had, a ranch in Alberta, and it was on a trip to his home in Worcestershire in 1910 that he married his old . friend and neighbor. Together they re- ��� turned to Canada and settled in Calgary where their son Stanley was born., Living conditions at that time were primitive amf when the baby became sick the young parents found it impossible to get for him the care or even the fresh riiilk he needed, so they took him home to England. A year later, with the baby nursed back to health, they again set out for Canada, but this time with the intention of going on to Australia. However, they got no further than Canada, for by the time tlu\\v reached the west coast, war had broken out and there were no passenger boats to Australia. Instead, they m#,ved T6 Port Alberni, which at that time consisted of noting but a collection of shacks. Mrs. Wakefield found the going hard and must have often thought wistfully of her comfortable home in England. Five years later, they mp>e4 to ��� Surrey Centre where they. oporlfted a dairy farnrfor 25 years, marketing their milk in\" Clover- dale. , . On the death of her husband, Mrs. Wakefield sold -the farm and worked for-, seven years at Martin's restaurant in Port Alberni. Eleven years ago, she moved to Selma' Park to be near her son who was logging in the Secheit area. He bought for her the cosy home in which she has since lived. In the spring of 1960. Secheit mourned . one of its bitterest tragedies. Stanley Wake-, field was one of six men who were drowned when the boat in which they were returning from work, capsized in Secheit Inlet. Mrs. Wakefield treasures the memory of her only son. for he was .^jkvays kind ' and thoughtful, but she is fortunaS in having the warm friendship of���her daughter- in-law. Edna, now Mrs. Jack Fisher, and of her grandson, Douglas Wakefield, who is serving in the RCAF in Germany. He will be 21 years old in September, Mrs. Wakeiield has been a staunch Anglican all her life and has worked for the church both in Surrey Centre and in Secheit. She is a member of St. Hilda's Church., and was active, in the WA as long as she was able to get around. Her pastor. Rev. R. Barry Jenks. visits her iaithfully, so that she is not deprived of the comforts' of her church by age or infipmity. She is cheerful and friendly: she likes people and has many good friends who visit her and perform deeds' of kindness for her.

The first Humanities and Science Symposium, sponsored by the University and the IBM Corporation of Canada, will give 29 leading students from senior grades an opportunity to discuss their work in a variety of fields, before an audience of teachers and other students. All those completing grade XI or 'XII in B.C. schools were invited through their principles to submit a paper on a subject of their choice, or examples of their work in the arts. The best of 100 papers submitted will be presented by their authors, who and the implications of modern technology. In the creative arts, several student submitted their own poetry, paintings, and music. One applicant, David Duke of Vancouver, included samples of all three arts and will stage them simultaneously in what he terms \"an analysis and experiment- in multi-media project form.'' . Dr. Cary F. Goulson of the University's faculty of education, who is symposium chairman, said that the panel of judges was \"tremendously impressed by ��� the scope of the entries, and by their number.\" \"We hope the symposium will become an annual event,\" Dr. Goulson said. \"The quality of the response this year promises some exciting sessions at the end of the month, and shows that the project has caught students' imagination.\" As well as discussing their own material, those attending the symposium will receive expenses for their visit to-'.the\" Un- hear three special lectures and see some HAND carving leather is becoming a lost art but Mr. Steve Vesely, of Wilson Creek who learned the art in a Texas leather shop, has a superb . collection of articles made for the family.

Emery of the School of Fine Arts, who was recently appointed director of the Vancouver Art Gallery. FISH, either canned or boiled and drained, can be the cook's best friend. Fish dishes are ,-fast to prepare, inexpensive to serve and so good for people. All fish are an excellent source of complete, high-quality protein necessary for growth and repair of body tissues and for life itself. Fish protein is just as complete and disgestible as beef and, in fact, pound for pound, contains more protein than beef. Thus it behooves us all to think kindly of fish. This recipe for Friendly Fish Loaf is an unusualr way to serve either canned fish such as tuna or boiled and drained white fish: We think you will like it. Flake two cups of either canned fish or boiled and drained white fish. Combine fish with one cup medium white sauce, two tablespoons lemon juice, two tablespoons chopped cucumber pickle and two tablespoons chopped pimento. In a separate bowl, combine two- cups fine bread crumbs and four eggs, well beaten. Grease an S^ inch by 4V_ inch loaf pan. Make layers of half the fish mixture, a thin layer of half of one three ounce tin of lobster paste and half the bread crumb mixture. Smooth each layer with a spatula and repeat layering with the remaining half of the mixtures. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (350 deg. F.) for 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in pan for five minutes. Then turn out on a wire rack. Slice and serve, either hot or cold, with chili sauce. Upset traders . . .

WILLIAM Duncan rejected his church and his country to serve British Columbia Indians, proving that with fair treatment and leadership they could create a civilization to'rival that of the white man. Duncan was born in 1832 in Yorkshire, England. He was trained as a \"clerk and a salesman and was highly successful. Very devout, he joined the Church Missionary Society in London and when a call came for religious men to serve the Church of England among British. Columbia Indians, he stepped forward. He arrived'at Victoria in 1857 and soon decided he could better help the Indian away from the influence of the fur trading community. So he travelled north- to Fort Simpson to live among the Tsimshians ' where he soon earned respect, despite ..early ..opposition from the tribal, medicine men. He spent almost five years there and established a school,, In 1862 he resolved to build a,,Christian community of Indians apart from the trading post at a place called Matlakatla, 20 miles distant. About 350 of the band accompanied him. Tliey laid out town lots,, built.... houses and a church, n town ha,ll, a smithy, a cooperage, a sawmill! a soap factory, a co-operative store,, a bank and a cannery, Thoy ���owned their own schooner and traded with Victoria. Enmities built up with while traders who were stopped by native policemen from usintf liquor In their trade with tho Indians, Tho Church Missionary Society prole-Mod Duncan's teaching methods, which lacked rltmtf. These frictions led to near conflict and provincial authorities wove cool toward Duncan because thesp troubles cost money ,lri sending gunboats to preserve the peace, ��� Duncan averted .trouble., by moving, his whole eomtviunUy Into Alaska territory, and building u new Metlakatln In 1887 on Annette Island, with oven more Industries and better homes, It was here that Duncan died In 1018 at. the ��ro of 8fl, his only re Hrlllsh Columbia to create his Promised Land. p ST WAS A HORRIBLE MISTAKE m BUT ...

Needless to say. numerous reasons .....can,be drummed up as to why money taken from the local taxpayer has to be utilized to bolster the economy of the lower mainland, validity of these excuses however, are somewhat que* It would appear arrangements of the t questionable. arrangements - purchase were put in the hands of Board Maintenance Supervisor who. it appears, told the local dealer he shopped around extensively first. He-also stated he had called on the local dealer but did not reveal himself as a representative of the School Board. This it seems is not done but rather under a cloak of secrecy. What rubbish! on many items, the School Board gets a discount and. the dealer tells us this applies to vehicles. Why then the cloak and dagger stuff when a discount is available? The simple fact is that no-one on behalf of the board took the trouble to sit down with the local dealer to discuss reguirements and obtain a written quote. In fact the first indication he received, was on reading the boards intentions in The Times, by which time it was too late. This is not good enough, we have too many eager beavers paid substantial salaries by the taxpayer who almost fall over themselves in their hurry to spend even more of the, taxpayers money With outside interests. ������*\" To give the School Board credit, a great deal of business is done locally, at the same time, when great lengths are .gone to in order to persuade the-taxpayers to vote in Referenda, in other words cough up more of your hard earned capital. If at all possible there should be no question of .spending it out of the area. ' This situation is not restricted to the School Board for there are other organizations which depend upon public funds vet have a fondness for spending it outside. We refer to one group which raffled off a colour T.V. Tickets were pushed ��� particularly hard in the High School where by means of instigation of the competitive spirit, a large number of tickets were sold. This is fine to a degree, considering it was for a worthy cause. The sad fact is that it was decided to purchase the Television off the Peninsula. The age old story is that someone, knew someone who would do a good d&al. ��� There are merchants on the Peninsula who would probably offer similar terms if asked. One thing is certain, any question of donations and the merchant is the first target, too bad this is so quickly forgotten when it comes to giving a little business. It is indeed a fact that most organizations have the member who \"knows someone\". It is also a fact that we have many merchants who in the event- of a good cause will supply a product at near, if not co_t. That a stranger from afar is prepared to play fairy god-father to a strange community, out of kindness of heart, is very doubtful. There are those who see the world through clouded pink spectacles but unfortunately it is not that way. It is cold hard fact governed by cold hard cash. When public groups depending on public funds have money to spend, it should be remembered, this is not a prosperous area, every penny spent helps and out of common decency should be ���spent- right here at home when possible.

Unfortunately, under this system, the scales of justice are becoming increasingly weighted in favour of the criminal. In general principle the law is fair and just but there are many occasions when one has good reason to question the way in which it is administered. This' cavalier attitude presently making suqh a mockery of law and order js by no,means confined to this, country, indeed not; the same sorry situation blights that staid pf old seat of justice, the United Kingdom. , Of course,, despite , qny,illusions to the contrary, dispensation of British justice has, for centuries, depended to great extent on the colour of one's blood. There have been numerous examples of questionable justice. Latest incredible dismissal in that country involved a nineteen year old youth who drove a very high powered motorcycle'into an auto, PJea put up by his lawyer was \"sleep-walking\", Yes indeed, not only had the unfortunate youth shown frequent symptoms of sleep-walking but, had been known to get up in his sleep and take the family dog for a walk. As his lawyer pointed out \"he ., could not have been guilty of any offence if in a state of unconsciousness.\" What a turn-up for the book and what a break for future law breakers?'The po, tential is fantastic and docs not necessarily mean that it has to be night time to claim sleep-walking when baughi committing a . felony, The same golden opportunity is available lo those on graveyard and If so ,inclined may well pull a job in broad day- eriMie light. If caught they simply hold their arms out in front 6f them and providing they land a gullible magistrate they have it made. We do not actually suggest future wrong-doers take this seriously for it is extremely doubtful ��� if two magistrates could possibly fall for such a story. It does, however, emphasize the sloppy present day attitude to law breakers and the ease by whichVso many magistrates are manipulated by sharp lawyers. Much more of this nonsense and it will be necessary to form a vigilante com- $ mittee to protect, the police. They sure as heck aren't getting too much protection insbmc of our so-called courts of law.

IF THE word epidemic is taken to mean \"a Wide-spread disorder seriously affecting the lives and well-being of many thou- . sands of people,\" it is correctly applied to the increasing number of traffic injuries and fatalities, the Canadian Medical Asso- \" ciation says. In five years non-fatal traffic casualties, have increased 56 per cent and 'fatal casualties 35 per cent. If these figures were related to diptheria or smallpox, the situa* tion would be considered a national emergency. ��� ' ~ There are many causes of traffic accidents: careless driving, often combined with alcoholic impairment; disregard of the rules of the road; failure to maintain one's car in proper operating condition; failure to make use of approved safety devices such as safety belts and head rests, and many others. The CMA asserts that if every driver could be persuaded to criticize iris own driving performance under these, categories and then take the necessary corrective action, a reduction in the number of serious traffic accidents almost certainly would result. Indifference, immaturity and lack of a sense of personal responsibility, are invariably .demonstrated by those individuals ��� who drink to the point.of impairment, then take to the highways incapable of any thought for the safety of others or of themselves. It is important that all drivers recognize the rights of others'on the roads and highways, and do all in their power to prevent accidents. Otherwise, the injury and death rate will continue to mount and more government . control- will be required. Mounting public protest ha< brought revision of inadequate laws in the past, and it will do so again.

In order to counteract the buyer's apparent oppositibn to their product,* the money-hungry manufacturers of the baby- boy doll state that It is in no way intended to arouse, anxiety and that it should not shock anyone. They further state that it is a healthy ;,approach to a controversial subject and intimate that the baby-boy doll will actually be of educational value in 'a biological way. ' The so-called \"free thinkers\" and \"hippys,\" a small but vociferous minority of today'js younger generation, have already introduced enough weird innovations into our daily living to-last a lifetime. Let us not further complicate matters for the already bewildered parents. My old friend, \"Haggis McPyke,\" a character who has been around for a long time and is far from being a prude, summed it up nicely when informed of this latest promotional scheme. . \"Mebbie it's no for the wee wains that they're makin* the dolls.

EGMONT EYEDROPS Hear that Tom Peddle has been chosen as Powell River's 1986 \"Citizen of the year,\" and will be presented with the award at a public ceremony on March 16. This presents a golden opportunity for this column to make use of the oft-repeated phrase 'local boy makes good', as Tom, his good wife Rose and sons Phillip and Jock were well-known residents of Egmont prior to moving up to Powell River about 11 years ago. Tom's record of community- minded effort and his keen interest in the younger generation was in evidence long before he moved north, and it is extremely gratifying to hear that recognition of these outstanding qualities of a good citizen has come to Tom Peddie; who well deserves the honor. Mrs. Olive Porte, well-known and longtime resident of Secheit,. is spending a few days in Egmont's balmy atmosphere as the guest of her very good friend, Mrs. Myrtle Dalton. Olive would probably .never admit it; biit (!<��� suspect that' her annual pilgrimage to jpthese *e\"r parts\" is to recuperate from th��j rigors (\"���) of her home-town winters.

However, it has now been found that in pine plantations affected by the pine shoot moth the wild carrot will prevent the spreading of the moth when the pine forest is in its young, vulnerable stage Since the wild carrot plant depends on large open areas, the pine tree eventually crowds it out and destroys it. However, by this time, the pine is able to successfully combat the dangerous moth. Scientists are now faced with the fact that we will possioly have to change the law to allow the wild carrot plant to grow freely in the pine plantation areas. The only problem will be to stop it from spreading beyond the plantation Weclnes-fay, March IS, 1967 tiie Peninsula Time- Page 3 tiff\" it ^**VK wrtna in\\ Choose from our colorful selection DRESSES -SUITS - COATS - SKIRTS BLOUSES - KNITWEAR - SUMS and TOPS H.

CANADIANS deeply mound .the passing of one' of our great countrymen, Gov- ernor General George P. Vanier who passed away Sunday, March 5th. He was born in 1889 of an Irish mother and a French-Canadian father. A descend- ent of one of Canada's first French settlers, he had an immense pride in his an- cesfry~that was surpassed only by his fer- veht love for Canada and his hopes for the unification of the provinces. Discord between the English and French speaking Cnaadians distressed him deeply. In his New Year's address, ushering in the Centennial Year, he expressed his love for every one of the ten provinces and his pride in all their citizens. He earnestly wished that the borders of- the provinces would cease to be barriers and that Canadians could surmount these walls and join together as people of a country and not just as inhabitants of a particular province. Mr. Vanier served his country devotedly and well as diplomat and soldier for 50 of his 78 years. He.- in the words of John G. Diefenbaker, embodied and epitomized the best, of Canadian citizenship. His passing leaves a great sorrow in all Canadians. My introduction to live Shakespearean acting came when the excellent troupe. The Holiday Theatre, performed at our school on Thursday, March 2nd. This marvelous group comprised of Leo Burdak, Loyola Bunz, Brian Richman, Janet Wright, Jim McQueen, Bob Sime and Wally Mc- Sween put on \"Shakespeare 67\" which was composed of important excerpts of some\"of Shakespeare's more noteworthy plays. In the opening scene narrator Jim McQueen described early Canadian theatre, or. as the Indians aptly named it, the_\"Hee Hee House\". In -this scene, Leo Burdak, an outstanding performer, portrayed an extremely animated town crier. This vital actor also gave excellent performances as the grave digger in Hamlet, Sir Andrew Aquecheek, in Twelfth Night and the physician in \"Physician in Spite of Himself.\" The last named was the final scene, an excerpt from the play by the celebrated French playwright Moliere. Other highlights were Wally McSwcen'vS portrayals of Sir James Douglas in the opening scene and Sir Toby Belch in twelfth Night; Loyola Bunz as Rosalind in \"As You Li.ke It\" and the physician's wife in \"'\"Physician\",' ''''\"'''\"' ���''���'''' \"'���'''\" '���''���' \"��� Wonderful performances were also given by Jim McQueen, Janet Wright, Brian Richman and Bob Sime. They were all terrific entertainers and entirely deserved the prolonged ovation at the end of their per- .'���..,. ���by Donna Vaughn formancfe. . Judging from the comments it would appear, that the. rest .of the school enjoyed the show as much as I did. _ome of the comments were: \"They were good actors. I enjoyed it live much more than I would have if I'd read the plays from a book\". \" Ithought they were neat. I liked Leo Burdak\". \"Definitely, absolutely better than the books\". \"You get a lot more out of it seeing it live\". \"Much more interesting than the book.

It started as a short item in this column a few months ago and grew and grew and grew, until last week, when the posters were finished, the crest arrived.\"and the membership cards were printed. The posters 'carry the details of how anyone can become a member absolutely free but for anyone who has not as yet seen them I thought I would run over the hows, whys and wherefores of the club: To begin with, it is not a club in the true sense of the word. There are no meetings, dues, etc. and membership is not restricted to age or sex. On the other hand it is a very exclusive \"club\". The one and only way a person can-become a member is to catch a salmon 25 lbs--Qr better, anywhere on the Sunshine Coast and weigh it in at one of the locations listed on the posters. The Sunshine Coasti' for the purpose of this \"club\", Js ,roughly from Port Mellon up through Malaspina Stfait to Jervis Inlet including Princess Royal Reach, down past Egmont and through- the Skookumchuck and into Porpoise?, Bay and as the surveyors say, \"all the water in between\". I believe it goes without saying that the membership is only open to anglers taking their, fish on sport tackle so if any of you potential members have a gill-net in your hip pocket better trade it in for a rod and reel. If you are one of the more fortunate. or should I say \"skillfull\" anglers; who lands a \"big one\" and weighs it in at one of the listed locations you will receive a membership card and a club crest. The cards reads that you, having proved to be ' a fisherman of outstanding \"ability by catching a'chinook salmon fii excess of 25 lbs. are awarded membership in the Chinook . Salmon Club\". From then' on if any person doubts your prowness as- an angler all you will have to dp is produce your card and stand back and watch your tormentor .eat crow. There will be prizes awarded at the ��� end. of this'year to the three heaviest fish and the top fish will take the 'Fins and Tails' trophy which shall be his to keep; (th angler not the fish); .. So there it is, simple and straight, fpr- ward. ISo entrance fee, no special dates, (it is in effect now until Dec. 31, 1067), nothing to{ buy. and'��� almost,.\"no' >��� boundaries.

Burdetts went on the rampage from the opening whistle and were a goal up after 10 minutes. Pegasus looked as if they had never been on a soccer field before. The defence were shaky, the forwards lacked sting and were not aggressive. Pegasus somehow survived several attacks and were under constant pressure. Gordon Dick gave the team some of their confidence back when he streaked down the middle, drew out the goalie, slipped by him and scored. Half time 1-1. A much different team came but ��� to play the second half, they were the same boy's but with a different attitude. Gordon hit home number\"2 and a few minutes later Roland August made it 3-1. Tommy^Blain took a ball in his own penalty area and passed back to his goalie, but it was a bad pass and went wide of the mark. -Dave recovered to boot the ball away before it crossed the line but the referee, who was almost at the half way line gave Burdetts a go_l. This was a bad break and things got blacker a few minutes later when Burdetts were awarded a penalty kick. From the side line it looked like the Burdett player was the offender and the spectators were surprised when the referee pointed to the spot. Dave Fossett rose to the occa- \" sion and tipped the shot over the bar. ��� ��� ��� �� Pegasus had no trouble', holding them after this and the final whistle blew to.' end the game. Pegasus will now enter the district final against the Eagles at Ambleside Park, kick-off 11 a^.m. Let's send a big contingent down to see these boys of ours who have gone this far in their first season, of playing together, against a much tougher opposition, than could be found locally. drop thriller but eated royally on trip STILL leg weary and sore after a gruelling game again the Burdett's, Pegasus arrived'in Seattle to take on their No. 1 team, the Buchan's. Playing against these older boys. Pegs put on a good display of soccer, and both teams were very evenly matched as regards ability. At the half way mark the score was even, 0-0. ,. In the second half, the Pegs started to tire, but held their ground \"until twenty minutes from time, when Buchans scored. Lorne Edmunds tied it up for the Pegs with eight minutes to go, but Buchans popped in the winner with just the injury time left on the clock. This game was played in the true spirit of sportmanship, and quite different, from the rough and tumble of league and cup play. The Buchans parents and players put out the red carpet for the visitors, who were shown a good time, with everything laid on from roller skating, to bowling, .and the Pegs are looking forward to many more meetings with teams from this area. .RECOMMENDED !&8V,- OFFICIAL,v .APPOINTMENT; 10 SLEEPING AND HOUSEKEEPING UNITS ELECTRIC HEAT and COOKING VANITY BATHS & SHOWERS - TV - COMPLIMENTARY COFFEE (JmSiue S^k ON BEACH AT BEAUTIFUL DAVIS BAY HIGHWAY 101 - 2 MILES S.

Isabel Dawson THIS week a few facts and figures of in-\" terest-from-the-provincial\" secretary's department and the department of health. Throughout British Columbia, there are nearly 400 local centennial committees. The Confederation Caravan will make 100 exhibit stops throughout British Columbia while spending 200 days and travelling 5,619 miles in the province. In 1966, the provincial centennial committee arranged events which visited 200 communities for a total of 400 appearances. One hundred and thirty-seven chief executives this year will use the centennial travelling gavel. The S.S. Beaver will be visiting many ports in British Columbia and also to the States of Washington and Oregon. Other highlights are the Centennial International Abbotsford Air Show in August, the greatly expanded B.C. International Trade Fair at Vancouver in May, the opening of the historic Fort Steele, the\" 1967 Festival of Logging, the Youth Travel exchange of students visits, the student's 100 project, participation of armed forces, pacific command ships will also visit remote and isolated areas, an international fleet assembly at Vancouver and Victoria, and impressive military tattoos, and over 300 dedication ceremonies of commemorative centennial'projects .to ^ tune of $8,500,- 000 from all levels of government. Civil defence, covering 104 municipalities in British Columbia, has proved its value to the community during 1966 and in our area I might mention the Powell River Area Civil Defence assistance to the R.C.- M.P. in the search for two lost boys last year. -^~. Under health, the Medical Grant Act (B.C. Medical Plan) has been expanded to include payment of services of oral sur geons and to include payment for*...Abe services of podiatrists. The advisory committee is actively studying the field of optical care, particularly as it pertains to tests of eyesight to determine the need for optical glasses. As of February 10th, 1967, 371,935 persons or approximately 20'; of total popr ulation are presently covered. under the B.C. Medical Plan on individual voluntary basis. Over 65'/, of the subscribers to the plan receive assistance in the payment of the basic premium. The mid-year population of B.C. was 1,862.000 people, an increase of 73,000 persons over that of 1965. There were about 1,000 fewer births than in 1965, and they exceed deaths by about 13.000. This, means that some 5-4,600 people were immigrants, mostly from other provinces. Public health staffs administered some 386.000 individual treatments, given to protect against communicable diseases, of which 166.000 were Sabin Oral vacines against polio. The home care programme services is now provided in 102 communities, from 56 health centres and includes approximately*8-l\", of the population within the provincial unit area.

Let's sel now, what happened worth repeating this week. Plans arid arrangements for our Mardi. Gras are. well underway. Although the date isn't set definitely yet, each division has plans for their booth. Let's hope' we get as good a response to this as we did. in selling the pool tickets. Wednesday afternoon an assembly was held in memory of Governor-General Vanier. Although it was only fifteen minutes, after leaving the assembly you realized just how great this man must have been, and if he was proud to be called a Canadian, you were proud to be able to say you're a Canadian. During the assembly, a brief biography of bis life was given. It sure made you realize how much he devoted his life to the Canadian people. Wouldn't it be great if we were all as patriotic as he was? marks Human Rights Year\" MONTHLY dinner meeting of the SCB & - PW Clubr was held March 7 at the Winning Post at -Ole'-s Cove Resort, with 11 members present.

There were a few spot dances, freeze dances, elimination dances ,and bingo dances. The teachers there entered right into the festive spirit and each one took turn at attempting to keep in time to the rather loud music. I must say, they did a real great job of it. Oops!

Mr. Simpson, who was a civil engineer, took a post in Seattle for two months, but the work there was followed by contracts in San Francisco and Oakland and it was 10 years before the family returned to Canada. Back in Vancouver, they ran into -an old friend from Scotland, George Carirtack, who owned considerable property in Halfmoon Bay and who invited them to visit . him. , Outcome of the visit was that they rented one of his -co .ages for five years, only vacating it when Osborne's started to log the area. For a time,\" they rented the Hilton Tail house and one of Peter Milne's cottages at Redrooffs, but then built their own home at Redrooffs and moved in in May 1941.
