Getting that big ball all the way down an alley takes an exceptional amount of concentration and technique as these children from the Man-ay- mon nursey school point out. Although no scores were anywhere near 200, the 20 children from the nursery had a great time trying to hit the elusive pins Tuesday afternoon at the Sechelt Bowling Alley. Prom the top left and working clockwise the bowlers are Maria August, Coery* August, Roman Joe and Olivia Joe. At a time when cash flow problems have ' put Sechelt's largest housing development some six months behinclschedule, the head of the development has disclosed plans to operate a hover ferry service between Sechelt and Vancouver in the near future. Stanley James, Union Steamship's president and the primary backer of Seaside Villages, said Saturday in Sechelt that it is his intention to expand the proposed hover ferry between Bowen Island and Vancouver to include a , service between Sechelt and Vancouver. He said he hoped to have the service, which would utilize 51 foot modified hover- crafts built by the American branch of the British Hovermarine Corporation, operating to Sechelt in time for the May 31 opening of the Habitat conference. The hover ferries are cabable of speeds to 43 miles per hour and James expects a travelling time of approximately 35 minutes between Sechelt and downtown Vancouver. This announcement comes hot on the heels of reports carried in the Vancouver Province last week which quoted James as saying the Sechelt housing project is six to eight months late "but when the houses are built, the price will be the same as first quoted." In the report James said "The only problem we have there (Sechelt) is that the demand is greater than we thought, the building superintendent has been sick and weather and mortgage difficulties have delayed construction." James said "Saturday he had met with people concerned about the delay in the housing project and that he has assured people houses will be built and nobody will lose. James said the primary problem is one of cash flow and that a lot of money is being tied up with mortgage difficulties. He said the meeting with members of a property owners association, representing those with interests in Seaside village and who are concerned with the construction delays had helped to resolve those concerns. Sechelt and Vancouver, James said he wanted to establish the service as a non-profit project but as yet had to set up a non-profit organization to run it. "It would be set for the benefit of something in this area." James said the service could offer fares as low as $2.25 for a return trip to Vancouver and any amount charged above that could be contributed to a non-profit organization. He said he has not worked out the various legalities, with the various government ��� See Page A-3 Since Inlet Avenue is already damaged and only half of the money alloted for the beach project has been used, Sechelt council is looking into further entrenching of. rock along the village waterfront. The Water Rights Branch of the provincial government may have something to say about it though. When the village found out two weeks ago free rocks were avaUable from the Department of Highways, council set aside $5,000 for heavy equipment to entrench rocks along the Boulevard to prevent erosion of the road. The work originally planned has been completed and the cost was $2,500. . Aldermen Morgan Thompson and Frank Leitner both thought the entrenching of the waterfront should be completed. now that Inlet Avenue has been damaged. Council decided to look into it. Alderman Dennis Shuttleworth said the Highways Department had promised to repair the road. On the complaint of an unidentified village resident, the Water Rights Branch contacted the village and suggested the department be consulted before any further work is done on the boulevard. Tom Wood, village clerk, said he figures ,. ;"We.arevstarti^on,^ and no more will be started until the backlog of the complainant. "Wefigured we were only has been brought up to date." enforcing the roadway." Union Steamships considers the Seaside ' Alderman Morgan. Thompson Said " the Village project as a model of how the private village is not affecting the foreshore and that sector can produce low cost housing.. , the "village's hands had been slapped." The About the hover ferry service between village will contact the Water Rights Branch. To cope with the increasing need for marine search and rescue on the Sunshine, Coast, the co-ordinator of the local provincial Emergency Program (PEP) has suggested a volunteer rescue organization be set tip that would resemble a volunteer fire department. Arthur. McPhee suggested this volunteer brigade would use boats and basic equipment provided by the Ministry of transport. These remarks followed a complaint filed with the MOT by the Village of Sechelt over the inadequacy of marine search and rescue facilities on the Sunshine Coast. In response to the village's complaint the M<^T*said the present system for search and rescue on the Peninsula will be reviewed this summer, McPhee's suggestions will be forwarded to the MOT for its consideration. McPhee, who Is a past chief of staff (operations) to tho Commpndor Maritime Forces Pacific, told village council that it can be cosily seen that the MOT resources for murine search and rescue are spread very thinly on the West Coast., " He said murine search and rescue is primarily the MQT> responsibility and that confusion is common over Uie duties of Air Search and Rescue Squadrori based in Comox which falls under the Department of National Defence. He said that the squadron is primarily Concerned with air disasters and the responsibility of co-ordinating searches because of its superior communication equipment. Referring to the recent publicity given to the Air Search and Rescue Squadron's Involvement in marine rescue operations on the west side of Vancouver Island, McPhee said the squadron Is not financed for marine rescue but will naturally do it when it Is called upon. Also In reference to the herring season, McPhee notes that all the MOT vessels of any size which are concerned with marine rescue are removed from this area In support of the herring fleet. "This aspect, to me, Is quite unacceptable. The need for available rescue facilities ln this Immediate area will rise sharpl/ as the weather permits the use of an Increasing SOilg interest in fife o determ!!-�� isfric By MAIIV TINKLEY In nn attempt to find out how much public support there is in the Halfmoon Bny area for n fire department, the Area B ratepayers Association will ask the regional board to call a public meeting to discuss the matter, A public meeting will also allow the regional district to evaluate the public's feeling towards creating a fire protection district In tho Halfmoon Bay area. At the general meeting of Area B Ratepayers' Association held nt the Welcome Bench Hull on March 15, Brian, Stelck presented to the ratepayers a feasibility study on the establishment of a voluntary fire deportment. lie explained that there were two methods of organizing such a deportment. It could be done by forming a Society under the Societies' Act or by applying to the Regional DiHtrlct to declare a fire district. He said the Fire Marshall recommended the Regional District concept ond the Feasibility Committee hod no hesitation in endorsing this route. It would ensure proper financing by means of a mill rate on taxes and it would mean that the Rcglonul District would lie liable for Injuries In ense of fires. There was considerable discussion about ��� Sec Page A-3 number of small^vessels, many of which are inexpertly manned." McPhee said he had been told that two individuals on the Peninsula have had to respond to upwards of 200 'incidents' each summer. These Incidents have Included running out of fuel, missing persons, fires, groundings afld other marine mishaps, he said. "The reason for this unreasonable demand on an individuals resources is the lack of capability by the government agency responsible." McPhee said he thought a volunteer rescue organization would work because It is the type of job which would appeal to the young people with strength, and time available. "This area could use the human resources available if It liad tho equipment and sufficient blessing from the proper government agencies." In the way of men and equipment McPhee suggested there should be one 40 foot launch, one or two Inflatable boats, and one responsible skipper ond engineer-mechanic ns permanent staff, He said volunteer crews could bo recruited locally and equipped and trained as far as possible by local resources such oh firefighters, communications operations, scuba divers, and parn-mcdlcnl people. McPhee said the Canadian Const Guard Is considering some way to involve communities In rescue duties imd that he hopes a volunteer organization cannot only be set up in this area, but also in Other districts on tho const. No support for official language Neither Gibsons nor Sechelt councils have supported a request by ParksviUe Municipality to have English declared the official language in B.C. Both councils received a letter from ParksviUe asking them to endorse English as the official language in B.C. and send this recommendatton to the provincial government. Both councils tabled the matter indefinitely, considering such a move as unnecessary. xpropnate tan expect in lawyer The reglonnl boord wos told Mor. 11 that It should either buy or expropriate land from Sunny Harbour Estates for a rood access but not expect It for nothing. Sunny Harbour Estates come to the meeting seeking six building permits which imd been turned down because of a change In zoning on the 34 acre property near Secret Cove, Donald White, n lawyer representing Sunny Harbour Instates, said It seemed to Him ond his clients the price of the nix building permits seemed to be the dedication of public access through the.34 acres. lawyer White said Sunny Harbour Estates Is a limited company formed some years ago by people who come together to own property, He sold eight property owners hod built residences and nit more wanted to build homes In the future, Problems arose when the territory around and including Sunny Harbour Estates wos zoned R-2 In 1970. An R-2 zone meant only two buildings could be built on ony one piece of properly ond this put' the eight buildings ��� Seepage A-3 Legal advice sought on code enforcing The Vllluge of Sechelt is seeking legal advice on how to go about enforcing the Nntlonal Building Code and in particular, how to get the owner of Sechelt Building supplies to conform to it. This move Is the culmination of a dispute between Haydcn Killam nnd council over fire safety requirements In a building Killam constructed lust Spring. The building is next to Sechelt Building Supplies and houses the O.K. Tire Store on the ground floor. The dispute arose because tho Notional Building Code colls for more stringent safety features on the upper floor of a two storey building thnt Is used for office spnee rather than for storage space. \ The original building plans for the building that were approved by the local building inspector indicated the second floor of Killam's building would be used as storage. However, after the building wns constructed, nnd the village found offlco space wos being rented in the upper floor, tho building Inspector re-vlslted the building and found oddlllonol sofety features were required. The dispute over the additional safety features eventually ended up at the Notional Building Code appeals boord, Tho appeals bourd supported the building inspector nnd the village ond even colled for more stringent safety features. At Wednesday's council meeting a letter was read in which Killam suggested alternatives to correcting the problems but according to the village clerk Tom Wood his ��� Sec Pn go A-3 H Over a million seedling trees have been offered to B.C. municipalities and the Sunshine Coast's governments plan to take advantage of it. The seedlings are the trees the former NDP government had bought for park beautif ication in the province and managed to become the recent centre of controversy because the new Social Credit government didn't know what to do with them. , When Tom Wood, Sechelt's village clerk, heard the news reports about the trees, he said he called the province's Department of Lands and Forests to see what the plans were for the seedlings. Wood said he was told Municipalities could liave as many trees as they wanted as long as they transported and planted them. When the matter came up at Sechelt Council Wednesday, alderman Dennis Shuttleworth labelled it as a golden opportunity for beautifying Sechelt and starting the arboretum (botanical tree garden) "council had been kicking around for two years." There are some twenty different species of trees available ut government greenhouses In Surrey nnd Chilliwack. In nn attempt to initiate a joint effort between Sechelt, Gibsons and the regional board for the acquisition of trees, Wood called the other local governments'. Both Gibsons and the regional board plan to join in the plan once thoy have decided how many trees they con use. Shuttleworth estimated Sechelt would need n 1,000 tree minimum If the village wos to plant them In porks, give some away to village residents and start the ndrsery or arboretum. Because the trees are seedlings, Shuttleworth said tho village may be forced Into the position of using n greenhouse to purse them along until they are ready to plant. He sold there was a possibility tho arboretum In District Lot 1472, behind the arena, could be used ns a nursery to get the seedlings started. Mayor Harold Nelson sold the village would have to Invest in a chain link fence around the trees If they aro planted In DL 1472 because of the deer ln the area. "That could be expensive," be sold. Shuttleworth suggested the yllloge should write the Chamber of Commerce ond the garden club to see If thoy were interested in contributing to tho arboretum, Council also decided to see If the rcglonul boord and Gibsons would like to shore o nursery. Wood hopes to write the Department of Lands and Forests this week to confirm how many trees are wanted on the Peninsula. 'iL,.^-��-^f,rTS_-_\_^^A-.,'*-_A*i^,"> SHE GOES BACK a long way.

This machine- is powered by a 543 c. in. Ford gas engine and will pump water at 840 gallons per minute. Itcarries 1,000 feet of one and one-half inch hose, 2,000 feet of two and one-half inch and a 200 foot high pressure booster hose. It arrived from Red Deer, Alta. last week. Area A which normally hasn't been too enthusiastic about joining the rest of the district in regional board functions is interested in joining Gibsons' proposed dog control plan. Regional director for Area A Jack Patterson asked the regional board Feb. 11 how much it would cost Area A to be included in the dog control plan. Gibsons' regional director Jim Metzler said he never envisioned Area A would want to join the function. He said Pender Harbour would be a long way for the dbg catcher to travel but he suspected something could be worked out whereby the dog catcher could visit Area A once a week. The. regional district still has not committed the district to a dog control program. Gibsons has said it wiU construct a dog pound regardless of what the regional district does. Sechelt has indicated it wiU join Gibsons in the program once the fine details are worked out. - FossU fuels include coal, oil and natural gas.

'Extremely creditable record by Sechelt fire volunteers' The following is a transcript of the report given to the annual meeting of the Sechelt Fire Protection District by Ernie Booth. Mr. Booth was re-elected chairman of the fire protection district at the meeting. For the record and for information we have a few important statistics. Among them, the Fire Department responded to 52 fire calls In 1975, some minor, others very serious. The department was called out on six false alarms and performed 12 rescue missions during the year. Fifty two practice training sessions were held with attendance at 75 percent. This is an extremely creditable record. These sessions include practice as well as maintenance of equipment. Testing and flushing hydrants and a mlrlad of other duties are also Included. May I assure all the men in the department that their volunteer services are highly valued and appreciated. The position of the Sechelt Fire Protection District lias changed greatly during the past year. Preparatory actions taken during previous years paved the way for tho expansion anticipated to meet the requirements of the rapidly growing district. In June of 1975 the District formally took in tho areas of Bny view and up East Porpoise Boy to Include Tuwanek." This, with the heavy Increase ln building units, Increased the responsibility placed on the department. Wo must expect ond prepare for a continuing Incrense. To cope with the situation the roster of men ln the department was Increased to 30. Broad insurance coverage for Uio men was pluccd In force last April. Equipment was added and Improved, A new air compressor wos Installed, more Scott Air Pocks were provided, new solid state radio equipment hns made communication lictwccn units n sure thing, and heavy duty fire extinguishers for each mon to carry ln his vehicle were provided. Two lots In the village were acquired to proVlde a location for a new larger Fire Hall to meet present future requirements. Transfer of ownership of the present Fire Hall property to the Fire Improvement District was arranged and action to provide an area for a satellite fire station at the top of Sandy Hook HiU is weU underway, We are all pleased to see the new pumper truck, fully equipped, which was ordered last summer, has arrived. This will greatly improve our fire protection capacity, especially should the department face calls from opposite ends of the district, , During the coming years we hope to increase the insurance coverage for the men, finalize the regularize agreements with the Indian Band regarding protection of property from fire In IR1 and review the situation regarding IR2. The School District has agreed to provide a degree of compensation for fire protection based on the number of teaching afeas within Uie District. All of this costs n great deal of money. In this respect with the Information and figures available the best estimate we have been able to provide is that a tax mill rate somewhere between 3.0 mills and 3.5 for this year Is to be expected. On behalf of the Fire District Trustees may I thank all who liave bqcn in any way connected with fire protection In this area ond trust that your continuing support will be forthcoming.

It also means that under the present property ownership structure future buildings cannot be built oh the property. . To build more homes would mean Sunny Harbour Estates would have to seek a land- use contract, start a strata-tiUe development or subdivide the property, none of which the owners have .initiated. It would appear the regional board wants a road,, dedication through Sunny Harbour Estates to the property owners on Sansouci Estates, the property adjoining Sunny Harbour Estates. If Sunny Harbour opts for any alternatives open to them, the regional board can demand road dedication to'the lands beyond, a requirement placed on any new subdivision in the district. Sunny Harbour feels this practise is unjust in their situation. White said the Sansouci property was originaUy sold as water access only lots but that for Sansouci. owners who want access across Sunny Harbour Estates, a 25 year licencing agreement had been reached between home owners on both properties. White said Sansouci owners were paying some $1,500 apiece on a volunteer basis for access across Sunny Harbour Estates. The six owners who have not buttt have had their property values go to heU, White said. "With the stroke of a pen, the rules have .been changed without them knowing it, and their property has been rendered valueless. They bought the property in good faith." "The other eight owners also stand to suffer because should their homes be destroyed, they wiU be in the position of the other six and will not be able to re-buUd." White said "the whole business about public access does not emanate from the owners on either property (Sansouci and Sunny Harbour)." "Ii the regional district wants public access, then it should have to pay for the land or expropriate it in some way. Something for nothing is not in the spirit that one would expect." In defense of the board's position-Area A director Jack Patterson said there should, be access for police and fire protection. "We have to look ahead, 10 or 15 years because sooner or later those lots are going to be sold individuaUy. I can see why the board wants access." Board chairman John McNevin said he was not aware that there was any attempt by the Sunny Harbour people to enter into a land use contract with the board. He said if Sunny Harbour went the subdivision route the Department of Highways would require a 66 foot road aUowance to the roads beyond. White gave no indication of what Sunny Harbour Estates would do next. He said three property . owners wanted to buUd immediately.

Several members spoke in favour of the Mini-pumper and it was considered that in such a scattered area, portable equipment at set spots would offer the speediest method of dealing with a fire., It was suggested that the ideal set-up . might be a central station with-portable equipment stationed permanently at certain points. For areas beyond the waterline forestry-type pumps'coidd be left at strategic positions. These could be adapted to pump ��� sea water. A resolution to apply to the Regional District to hold a public meeting on the matter was carried unanimously. Residents on the top side of the Redrooffs Road reported that they had received accounts for water connections. Replying, Peter Hoemberg explained that where It was necessary for waterlines to cross the Redrooffs Road, the Regional Board was anxious to get the connections completed before the road was repaved. There was a request that the Regional' Board give publicity to the code of specifications for connections. Mr. Hoemberg reported that, the repaying of three and one-half miles of the Redrooffs Road was scheduled for April. Another coat of paving Is to be applied between Halfmoon Bay and Secret Cove. There were complaints about the condition of Frances Avenue nnd the roads in the Welcome Woods subdivision. The meeting wns Informed that the Fireurms Byluw luid now passed its second rending nnd there was optimism that the Regional Board and the Gun Clubs would now lie prepared to work together nnd agree on a 'formula acceptable to all concerned. There now seems llttlo chance of the Soil Removal Bylaw going through, which leaves the Regional Board with no means of funding Its parks program, It wan noted tliat the majority of Halfmoon Bay residents wore satisfied with a garbage eollectlon every other week and did not need n weekly service.

This suggestion did not sit weU with . councU as it figured the buUding inspector had approved plans for a building which would have only storage on the upper level. Alderman Morgan Thompson said, at first blush, it appears the village is not completely without blame in this matter and that he would like to find a cheap way for the village to get out of the mess. Obviously agitated by the remark, Mayor Harold Nelson told Thompson he has no idea what the vUlage has been going through in this' matter. (Thompson was elected to councU Jan. 1.) "You say we shouldn't go to court ������ but what does he do with his next buUding. I think we should stick with the ruling of the building code appeals board. If a person does not want to foUow the rules, what^re we supposed to do." Alderman Ernie Booth suggested Killam could turn the second storey of his buUding into a storage area and this may eliminate the problem. "The village has to stand up and be counted at some time and I think this is the time," said Alderman Dennis Shuttleworth. He made motion to council that the village seek legal advice on how to enforce its bylaws. The motion passed.

"I would hope there would be a regular run to Sechelt, depending on acceptability. Priority of course would be given to people in Seaside VUlages. Booking would likely be on an individual basis." The craft in Union Steamship's plan would be a 60 passenger 43 knot vessel which uses the principle of a hovercraft but has been modified to give it a much smoother ride. The hover ferry has flexible skirts front and back containing air that aUows the vessel to skim along the water. It Is driven by conventional marine engines and screws. Thus it is able.to achieve high speeds with, engines totalling only 620 horsepower, and is reported to have a noise level similar to that, produced by a diesel passenger bus. James said the ferry would not necessarily require a wharf as it could puU up on a beach to load and unload passengers.

See you at the square dance, cheerio. eddlng-jrflocal interest unites couple in Squamish Sechelt News Notes By MARY TINKLE Y A wedding of interest to many residents of the Sunshine Coast took place.on March 13 when David Kelly Foley, the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Doug Foley of Squamish, took for. his bride, Diana Marguerite, daughter of. Mr. and Mrs. Frank G. Brunn of Squamish.' St. John's Anglican Church, Squamish, was packed to the doors for the pretty double-ring ceremony, with the Rev. Johnson officiating. The bride who was given in marriage by her father, was dressed in a white satin gown, with a long sleeved lace bodice. Her dark curls were held in place by a smaU lace cap and floor length veil, and she carried a bouquet of roses. She was attended by Maid of Honor Mona Boyce and two bridesmaids, Pamela Anderson and Sandy Cliff, aU dressed in floor-length gowns of green with flowered nylon shoulder capes. The mother of the bride chose a long blue dress with a floral necklace. Attending the groom was his Best Man, Paul Acorn and two ushers, BUI Rattray and Jim Schutz, Jr. They wore brown tuxedos with brown velvet collars, brown vests and white-frilled shirts edged with brown. ,. At a reception which foUowed at the Royal Canadian Legion, 150 guests sat down to a smorgasbord dinner. The toast to the bride was proposed by her uncle, Doug Anderson of Squamish. As the time drew near for the bride and groom to depart, there was a buzz of excitement in the'hall as aU the single ladies formed a line, each hoping to catch the bride's bouquet. Equally hopeful, the bachelors of Squamish lined up to catch the bride's garter with aU the enthusiasm of a footbaU team playing for the Grey Cup. Appropriately enough, the garter was caught by the groom's brother, Stephen Foley, who has a June date aU set for his marriage. The dark-haired bride, dressed in an ensemble of pink and white and the blonde groom in a white suit, made a handsome pair as they left for their honeymoon which they planned to spend touring Vancouver Island. Residents of the Sunshine Coast who were in Squamish for the wedding were the groom's grandfather, Ed Edmunds of Redrooffs, Mrs. Ruby Warne, his uncles and aunts, Mr. and Mrs. Chuck Ayer of West Sechelt and Mr. and Mrs. Owen Edmunds of Redrooffs, his cousins, Cindy Edmunds and Robbie and Sharon Doyle. The Sechelt Legionaires played host to the Extended care patients for a grand evening," . Thursday, Mar. 18. Special ladies honored for celebrating their birthdays this month were Mrs. Lou Pierce and,Florence Webb. LiUian Peters, activity aide, and other staff members enjoyed the patients pleasure. First on the entertainment program were the Sunshine Choristers led by Mrs. Enid Godkih, a beautiful blending of voices male and female singing were pleasing selections. Music and songs were delivered by Harold Aubin, Herb Ebach and guest guitarist from Vancouver, Rick Brown, an entertaining trio. The.Legion Pipe band, in aU their splendour, marched in with their stirring music to . thriU the listeners. Walter. James accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Barbara Gough sang Macushla and Rose of Tralee specially for Lou Pierce, Lou sported a gorgeous orchid from her favorite man, husband Rod. The ladies/were aU in their party dresses with coiffures that showed that the ladies in Red, the Hospital Volunteers had been busy that morning. . WaUy Erickson, President of the Legion was Master of Ceremonies. He thanked the patients for coming and said the Legion was PEGGY COflNOR 885-9347 delighted to have them there and hoped they would continue to come forever. John Bunyan ahd the Mini bus got, everyone there and back in comfort, to Uie, end, another night to remember. The Sechelt Guides and Brownies who wiU hold their plant sale and tea April 8th. wish to let it be known that while their raffle draw states it wiU be drawn on the 9th the true date is April 8th. The Annual get together of the Volunteer Hairdressers was held at the lovely home of the new Chairman Dorothy MUes in Roberts Creek. The idea of the meeting was to give members a chance to meet feUow volunteers.. Present were Phyllis Whidden, Evelyn Pinel, Sandi Cavalier, Alice BiUingsley, Sylvia Kerr, Hazel Hadden, Betty Morris, Bea Rankin, Elsie HogkneU, Erna Cole, Norma Potter," and Past chairman now Volunteer Director Muriel Eggins. To show Muriel Eggins how much she.was appreciated, the ladies presented her with a beautiful crystal rose bowl. Dorothy MUes puUed a cute trick on Muriel whUe they were in Vancouver purchasing supplies for the hairdressers. She had her pick out her own gift letting her think it was for someone else. The Lighthouse Keeper of Merry Island PageA-4 The Peninsula Times Wednesday, March 24,1976 says six big honkers were resting between Bambi Island and Merry. Could be geese returning or are they the six that hang around Sechelt? Not a great bingo fan, but I do enjoy the Lion's Club Bingo. Of course it ups ones interest when one is lucky enough to win, but besides that it beats sitting in a smoke f Uled room. .' ' Ted and Barbara Gough, have returned home from a trip to Reno and other points. Ted is the man that is keeping the Hospital grounds so attractive. They came back with their shirt intact. Vic and Madge Edmonds went via Redwing Tours to Reno. Archie and Sis Scott from West Sechelt traveUed on .the same bus. The weather was exceptionaUy warm for this time of year, but not too much so for our traveUers. Dora Wilson weU known, and weU loved has passed away. She wUl be missed. Any sightings of twofers should be reported BftSftiEDBATELY.

Rose, Mrs. R.H. Sheridan, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Robinson, Mr. and Mrs. Corrigan, Mrs. S. McClean and Mr. and Mrs. Procte who were given a very hearty welcome by President Emery. Arising from the reading of the minutes was the announcement that a Gestetner Duplicator had been purchased. This will facilitate the distribution of bulletins, the printing of tickets and other needs. ' . It was also announced that we would have 4 visitors from Vancouver at our Dance Session of April 7. These being the Outreach Group from the New Horizons Office.. The fourth Thursday Social Hour for April would have two outstanding items. Mr. Graham Craig will give a short talk on�� financial matters of interest to Seniors and we will have a visit from some of the pupils of Mrs. Mi-wards School of Dancing. It promises to be a real bang-up afternoon. The Treasurer reported that our finances were in good shape but it was also reported that while we have 205 paid up members at the moment this was somewhat down from our total membership for 1975. It is felt that it is largely a matter of forgetfulness in the paying of dues. Remember we have some good projects and are working on other projects for the benefit of our membership. May 8 is the date set for our Spring Tea and Sale. Chairperson Margaret Humm asked for volunteers to man the various tables. Please phone Margaret at 885-8840 and tell her what table you would like to work on. Robert Foxall reported on a meeting of SPARC (Social Planning and Review Council) which he had attended in the past weeks. It would take too much space to go into their objectives deeply but it can be summed up by a phrase, it is to study the health needs of the independent elderly. Studies are being made in Duncan, Langford-Colwood, White Rock and Sechelt. Foxall thought their alms and objectives deserved the support of Branch No. 69. They have already published an excellent guide to the services available to Senior Citizens in B.C. It was recommended we secure a copy. Dave Hayward advised us that due to drop-outs he how had three seats available on the Reno bus. Better call Dave immediately. The lists were now open for the Portland Rose Festival trip in the middle of June. Gracie Scott drew our attention to the offer being made by a local publication and suggested we make an all out effort to win the prize offered. We were^sorrowed to hear that our Ren- talsman Dave McLaren had been ill and was compelled to give up his office. Volunteers were called for and in no time found. Mr. and Mrs. Karpenko volunteered to undertake this work and can be found at 885-2682. Will all members make a note of this number so they can advise anyone who might inquire about rentals where to go for the necessary information. An invitation had been received from Powell River to attend the opening of their new Hall on April 6. Unfortunately, they had not given definitive information about items but about 20 members indicated they would go, so we are securing this information and will publish it next week. It was duly moved and seconded that the Social Committee be authorized to buy a dispenser to use at dances ahd other festivities. Before adjournment of the business meeting prizes were drawn for, with the door prize going to Mrs. Crawford and the Shop-Easy prizes going to the following: Bill Fraser, Mrs. Geer, Olive Clear, Marlene Weigard, Madge Hansen and Elizabeth Derby.

The. origin- of the expression Idamping' off' is a mystery ��� that'is if it is applied to affected vegetation. If however it is meant to describe the reaction of the amateur gardener who sees the little plants he purchased so optimistically ��� and expensively ��� .suddenly in a fatal coma, then indeed is a 'damping off. a good description of his deflated enthusiasm. . Of course it is the demise of young plants to which 'damping off' refers and its origin is unimportant. Equally of course there is a reason for it just as there is a reason for everything Nature does. In this case the cause is fungus and the reason is the growing conditions. Overcrowding in the early stages of life ��� poorly aerated soil and too much water at the surface thus shutting off the air supply, or maybe lack of light and-or too much warmth are some of the reasons why reasonable Nature introduces her selective process of elimination. According to the experts, in this case a B.C. Department of Agriculture pamphlet, the greatest losses to 'dampening off' occur before the young plants emerge. What looks like poor germination may in fact be the destruction of life by a parasitic fungus present on the seed when it was sown. If this danger is to be taken seriously, as the commercial grower, certainly must, there are specific treatments available with the use of proper chemicals. As always, dangers are involved and to avoid them the recommended procedures must be rigorously observed. For instance no copper treatment may be used on the crucifers like cabbage and wallflower, and the soil acidity is ah'important factor in the use of cuprous oxide. There are a few recommendations on the prevention of 'damping off' as well as the preprinting disinfecting. For instance avoid rotating susceptible crops like beets, spinach and cucumber. You will be safe however in following beets with carrots or beans as these are not susceptible to the fungus. Keep the growing medium and the greenhouse or frame well ventilated and aerated and the humidity low. If 'damping off' makes its appearance after the seedlings are showing there are various mixtures that can be applied as a spray at the rate of about half a gallon to a flat. Some of these/ are Arasan, Bordeaux mixture, Fermate and Semesen. Again the warning is, follow the directions of the manufacturer. The composition and condition of the growing medium are basic consideratons. A recommendation from England reports good results from a mxiture of two parts of loose bulk loam, one part peat and one part coarse sand. To each bushel of the mixture is added 1% oz. of superphosphate .and Vz oz. of ground 'limestone. Sterilization of the oil with steam or formaldehyde is a common and valuable practice when growing under glass as a means of controlling 'damping off'. AWAKE! AWABCE! The twofers are coming.

The name is an artist's alias, as he calls it, and replaces the more conventional Gordon Schaller. (His brother is called Richard The Troll). Among the many talents of this Pender Harbour resident is his interest and ability in keeping two uncommon arts'alive. They are scrimshaw and the making of lead glass windows. His ability for the latter will be shared with Peninsula residents in April. He is also a self-acclaimed authority on Indian trading beads, a collector of early colour prints and a rebuilder of wood ., stoves. Not the least unusual of which is his method of acquiring the raw materials for furthering his talents. He trades or barters. 5 First about lead-glass window making. An art that has survived since the Dark Ages, Gordon will be teaching nis version of it in one of the school board's continuing education programs. The leading together of clear and coloured glass to make windows historically has been tied to ornamentation : of - European religious structures. But according to Gordon the use of leaded glass windows has not been one constant expansion throughout the years. "It seemed to be a talent that was reserected every hundred years or so. Tastes and attitudes seemed to change and there would be periods when the coloured glass windows would be replaced by clear ones, then years later the clear glass would be replaced. ' As mentioned earlier ' he will be teaching his version of the art, which means he does not follow book bound instruction but rather a technique that has worked for himself. He is self-taught and has been at it for five years. "I'm not a professional," he says, "I start from the centre of the window and work out, whereas the pros would start from one of the corners." But his method docs work and he is confident that in the 24 allotted course hours he can have st'.iil^nts carrying home at least one w:-.'-.. .md possibly more, no matter wn;.. iueir mechanical dexterity is like. . Gay Beardmore, a friend and lead glass enthusiast, will be helping him teach the course. He says that in a couple of hours one can learn to cut the intricate pieces of glass for the windows as well as he can. Before students get to the actual cutting of glass, they must decide on a pattern, and there are a few snags to avoid. If - a window is found that students would like to copy, Gordon says to take a piece of newspaper, lay it over the window, and with a pencil, transpose the highlights of the window onto the paper. The snags of design come with how intricate certain pieces of glass must be cut. Using alphabet letters as an example, he says cutting shapes like V, capital C, 0 and M are difficult. The fitting together of the glass is done with lead strips that comes with grooves for the edge of the glass. The lead is soldered into place. If any peice of the most difficult to fit, it is the last one. Gordon encourages people to use a wooden frame for their windows, it makes them sturdier. As far as materials go, he says the clear glass can be scrounged-from any broken window and coloured glass is available in many shops in Vancouver. Our, society is perhaps the first in the history of the world where coloured glass has been supplied, he says, "It is the best in the world and cuts easily, something like breaking toffee." Materials for a decent sized window would cost between $20 and $30. The lead stripping is only 75 cents a yard. One of the intriguing things about these windows, says Gordon, is Uiat they usually last as long as people are happy with the design and often what happens is that with the lead lines new patters will eventually be seen, making them more intriguing. "For instance, a friend of mine has one that he has eventually able to see a bull dog in. It is like looking at clouds and envisioning designs." . , , He taught a similar glass-making course in Roberts Creek three years ago and apparently it was a tremendous success. Although Gordon says he could take commissions to make windows he prefers not to in lieu of spending time carving ivory and selling his pieces to pay his rent. , Gordon is one of only a very few scrimshaw carvers on the west coast and his work sells in.Vancouver for between $125 and $1,000. ' The art involves the carving of ivory,, . usually whale teeth, and colouring the engraved lines with black India ink. It became popular among the men of the large whaling fleets of the 19th century where the primary medium was the teeth of the sperm whale. But other sources of ivory for scrimshaw include baleen, jaw bone from toothless whales, 31ephant tusks, mastodon and walrus. Since the decline of the whaling fleet at the turn of the century, a small group of enthusiasts in North America have established a tradition of scrimshaw collecting. Vancouver's Maritime Museum even 1 as a small collection and. Gordon's work has appeared there. The whalers' carving depicted manyof the typical scenes involved in the whaling industry, but was certainly not limited to glimpses of adventure. Politics and war also, figures heavily on the ivory. Some of the carvers' work was used' for more utiltarian purposes such as handles, needles, clothes pins, cufflinks and even chessmen. Gordon is also a self-taught ivory carver and much of his work is done 'for the market', as he puts it. People who own a piece of ivory will bring it to him for carving and once the price has been agreed upon he sets about his commissioned task. Often the person with the ivory knows the design he! wants, but Gordon usually manages to put a little of himself into it. One man wanted a ship, so Gordon gave him a whaler riding on an unicorn and the man loved it. Carving ivory is a long and arduous task and Gordon will not take more than one commission per month. He says it may actually take only four days to do the actual carving, but deciding the details of design and how it would best complement a particular piece of ivory can also be an arduous task.

He spends a lot of time in the Vancouver library coming up with characteristic designs for his motifs. When he started carving four years ago, he could find no one else on the West Coast doing it, now there are a few more and even Gay is making pendants from ivory. The art is still prevalent on the East Coast. Although ivory sells for $32 a pound on the world market, Gordon comes by way of it from the grapevine. "It is really a matter of consistency of belief. When I started telling people I wanted to be an ivory carver, it was surprising the number of people who turned up with pieces. I generally trade for it, using leaded glass windows or stoves and furniture that I have re-built." He has come across pieces from as far away as Alaska and South America. "There seems to be quite a line of communication between freaks," he says. The ivory he carves is usally from walrus or mastodon but he has carved on the tips of tusks that have been cut from the elephants of Bamum and Bailey's circus. The tusks were cut and tipped to prevent injury to elephant handlers. One of the biggest artistic thrills he foresees is the day he <*an carve the spiral ivory tooth of the Narwhal. This strange tooth is rare. Gordon knows of only four and the owners of each have asked him how much he would charge to carve the tooth. His- rate for carving a Narwhal tooth is $400. The Narwhal tooth is believed to be the source of the unicorn legend. The tooth or tusk sticks out from the upper jaw of the whale and according to Gordon the whale is still found off the coast of Baffin Island. Gordon's work is executed with only a $1.35 silversmith's engraver and besides Indian ink he often uses special herbal dyes to give his pieces an aged look. While window-making ahd ivory carving are the mainstay of Gordon's artistic existence he also has another interesting sideline. He makes small gargoyles from casts that he has carved. He says they are an insurance policy against disaster to one's dwelling, but they are particularly useful for the protection of gypsy wagons. To anyone with a gypsy wagon he gives them a gargoyle free. He says there are some 25 or 30 of his gargoyles protecting gypsy wagons in North America. .

On Thursday morning, the students were called to an assembly In the gym concerning grads Intentions on wearing street shoes on the new gym floor, i Mr. John Denley, superintendent of schools, and Mrs. Cella Fisher, chairman of the school board, arrived to settle the dispute with the student body over gym use. Denley announced the need for a building to serve tho community. "It was a good Idea, on the part of the high school, to form a Homecoming greeting event, "Elphinstone was bjillt also for community facilities such as f,hc library and gym. Tho gym will Iks treated with respect as wq, realize the concern of the students," he said. Cella Fisher also reminded John Denley that the school Iward will watch carefully tho results of the floor such as abuse, which Is in their policy. It Is also up to the school board to make the school most Important and desirable for the community.. The beginning of the Homecoming took place on Friday evening as the doors opened and the registration began. A guest book was placed In the foyer for grads to sign. Ovor 200 people signed tho Iwok. The first basketball gamo at (1:30 p.m. resulted with senior boys topping grads by four points 59-55. Coffee and donuta were sold In the lunchroom and a talent nhow was displayed.

The pie throwing contest at 10 a.m. on Saturday proved to be quite messy. If you wanted to throw a favorite teacher in a tub of water, the dunking machine proved to be a good way to do It, The dunking machine had a good turnout as a $40 profit was mado for tho school. At noon, Elphie girls whomped Homecoming grads at four games of volleyball. Following a basketball gamo was played with old grads, from five years and more back, beating new grads 10-14, Hot dogs and pop wero selling ln the lunchroom. A bake sale was held In the hallways of the science wing. At 1:45, teachers topped grads 1-fl in a fast game of broomball. The biology nnd chemistry experiments in the science department went very well. Many students went out of their wny to help biology teacher, Mr. Smethhurst, with some demonstrations for the gratis. One Interesting experiment for tho grads was the use of the oscllllscopo, which picked up the frequencies of your voice that showed tho readings on a screen. The dance was to be held at 9 p.m, on Saturday night; and for tho benefit of the students, grads were asked to wear soft soled shoes, The exciting Ilomccoining event certainly turned out to be a big event for tho community.

As a result of a meeting with B.C. Hydro representatives the board found that underground wiring can boost servicing costs by as much as five times over overhead wiring. At the March 9 meeting, E. Gregory, B.C. Hydro representative, said average servicing costs for a lot With a 60 to 70 frontage for overhead wiring is $210 whereas for underground wiring it Is $1,150., assuming little rock is encountered in the entrenching work, He said if rock was encountered trenching costs can rise from $7 a foot to $55 a foot. Gregory said it was Hydro's policy that servicing work would be undertaken up to a value of $1,000 per, house In existence or being constructed, with Hydro carrying $200 for connections made to the service within ono year of installation. He said hydro Is prepared to make either type of Installation on request but that Hydro was primarily an overhead utility. Gregory noted that a single trench could be used for hydro, telephone and cablevlslon and Uiat to blast a single trench through rock to accommodate all utilities may be 'economically feasible. Amended third rending of the by-law was tabled further discussion on underground wiring. The board's public utilities community was expected to deal with tho matter last week and make a report to the board this week. PUC chairman nnd regional board director Peter Hoemberg said there was a possibility requirements for underground wiring could be amended. As I sit pounding on the old typewriter it's raining out, and I am very conscious of the cold I picked up a few days ago. , Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. For two reasons. One ��� I believe'in the saying 'laugh, arid the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone'. The second? Nobody would listen to me anyway. I attended the benefit dance held for Kelly recently and was a little bit; disappointed on one point. Not regarding the amount gathered but in the attitude towards the band by some people in the Legion. The 'Harbour Lites' offered their services free for the evening and played really well, yet a great number of people sat in the bar side drinking and talking and didn't have the courtesy to come in to the hall side and listen to some of the numbers. Sure, some readers might say they could hear the music perfectly well on the other side but how do you think the band felt when after they volunteered their services they found for the best part of the evening they were playing to a sparse audience. Fortunately the people eventually filtered in but by then it was very late indeed. Only really sour note of the evening was when the hat was passed round for donations and some character was reported to have thrown a donation of four cents in. I don't even know if this is true, but if it is I feel sorry for the person because by now the whole Harbour will, be talking about him or her. Far better the person just declined to give. Was down recently in Sechelt to see my physician, Doctor Swan by name. Aside from his prowess in the field'of medicine he is a gentleman in the truest sense of the word. My wife met him at that time and was much impressed. To cut a long story short he gave me a prescription which I had filled at Western Drugs in Sechelt. When I opened the package at home lo and behold a little greeting card appeared. It said, "Mr. Bachop, Here is your prescription, And may it prove to be, just the thing that's needed, for a quick recovery. Signed Terry." I remember reading about a druggist doing this but hadn't associated it with the store in Sechelt. Thank you very much, Terry." I recently had a chat with Phyllis Knutson and she had something on her mind. As I' understand it Phyllis has being doing a lot of work over the past 5 years or so organizing the May Day in Pender Harbour. She has been trying to get someone to take over the job as she feels that she has done as much or more than anyone should be expected to. She is right of course. The problem is if one person does a good job in a community like ours the rest of the populace take it,for granted that ^person will, always do. #. Not very fair is it?,^ U XX'. < .X' ' < What people do not seem to realize is that jjne day they will wake up and find that some annual event has been cancelled simply because the person responsible, unable to get anyone to take over the job has quit in disgust. This could very well happen to our May Day celebrations if people do not offer their help. Anyone who would like to help please call Phyllis Knutson at 883-2406. As many of you know by now I work a few of the early shifts in the Legion in Madeira Park. Being a barman is a new experience for me and I must confess I enjoy the work. I get to meet and talk to all kinds of people (which one of you gave me my cold?) and the time passes very quickly. Come to think of it I suppose I should be able to pick up some news items at the same time, For all you gentlemen who go to Meetings, how about submitting all those Committee Reports from a beautiful all leather Briefcase from Buxton, we have a very good selection. ��� Miss Bee's, Sechelt.

Temple of the Madeira Park area was recently awarded an Honour Certificate confirming 35 donations of blood to the Red Cross. A letter of thanks for his unselfish devotion to the cause was also included. The letter was signed by Director P.J.P. Rousseau of Blood Donor Clinics B.C. and Yukon Division. BENEFIT The sum of $209.00 was raised at the dance held recently in the Legion Hall in Madeira ' Park to aid Kelly who lost his mobile kitchen in a fire some time ago. The music, courtesy of the 'Harbour Lites' was excellent and those who turned out obviously enjoyed the evening as the band had trouble leaving the floor with the happy crowd shouting for more. The local band gets better every time out and it is doubtful if any other community of this size can boast such a large and talented group. Local residents can be justly proud of them. Led by Frank Postelthwaite they produce a great variety of sound most popular of which is the 'Big Band Sound', but sound great in any tempo. SCHOOL PUTS ON PLAY The students of Madeira Park Elementary School are busy rehearsing for a musical presentation of The Wizard of Oz. The staff members who have been key parts of the production are Mr. Harrison?" Mrs. Skapski and Mr. Simkins. The play is tentatively scheduled for two presentations ��� one on Thursday afternoon March 25 at 1:30 p.m. and another on Thursday evening March 25 at 7:30 p.m, All parents and visitors are coridally invited to attend. The play will be held in the activity room. A REMINDER The Lost and Found at the elementary school has many students articles in it. Parents are asked to remind children to check with the office if they are missing any articles. THEY KEEP COMING Latest arrival in the world, at least in the Madeira Park area, is David Robert Lien. David along with mother Catherine should be home from St. Mary's to join proud father Denny by the time this is read. Denny is well known as the manager of the Royal Bank here in Madeira Park. It is the young couples first child. COMPLETION DATE TENTATIVE Word is out that the end of July could possibly be the time that the Health Centre in ��� Madeira Park is completed. No doubt weather and the availability of materials will have a say in the matter. MUSICAL AFFAIR A SUCCESS A Spring Concert sponsored by the Pender Harbour Community Band was held on the afternoon of Mar ch 14 in the Pender Harbour Secondary School. The Programme Director was Mike Simkins, Master of Ceremonies Mr. Vern Wishlove and Stage Manager Peter Prescesky. AU participants ln tho concert received praise from the audience who Uiought It wad a well balanced show with plenty of variety. Individual performances wero a piano duct by Jody and Jamie Bomford, Saxophone solo by Rlccdh Talento accompanied by Mrs. L. Talento, a Piano solo h Lhevlnne Talento and a flute solo by , ftogenc Talento.

Choir members are Doreen Lee, Joan and Marshall Rae, Wendy Skapski, Ada Priest, Eileen Alexander, Florence Prescesky, Mary\ Richardson, Solveigh Harrison, Inge Bremer, Mike Simkins, Dutch Haddon and Mary Milligan. They were accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Lois Haddon, under the capable direction of Les Fowler. The 'Harbour Lites' came in for a lot of praise for their efforts too. Possibly the best received of their offerings were Little Brown Jug ��� featuring Marshall Rae, Tenor Sax; Frank Postelthwaite, Alto Sax; and Al Marcellus, Guitar; and Pagan Love Song, featuring Glenn Vincent on the drums. The audience left with the firm opinion that the Pender Harbour area is fortunate indeed to have such musical talent in its midst. SUCCESSFUL BANQUET HELD A father and son banquet for cubs and sea scouts of the Pender Harbour area was held in the Legion Hall in Madeira Park on Saturday, March 13. There were 65 people in attendance including Major Tom Speed and his wife from Vancouver. He is the Assistant Regional Commissioner for Sea Scouts, Ivan Smith from Sechelt, District Commissioner for the Sunshine Coast, Verne Wishlove, President of District Council, and Special * Guest, L. Kelly who received a special citation for his efforts in raising money for the Pender Harbour boys. He was also commended for the many times he has provided free samples of his food whenever a good cause came up. The smorgasbord dinner which was pronounced capital by young and old was prepared by the mothers under the leadership of Carol Reid. The Cubs and Scouts provided the after dinner entertainment with a series of prepared skits.

The Small Crafts Harbours Branch of Environment Canada could get an inferiority complex about its wharves. It can't get rid of them. After the regional board turned down an offer to lease the Madeira Park and Whiskey Slough Wharves, Sechelt Council turned down a similar offer on the Porpoise Bay wharf. In all cases, local governments refuse to lease the wharfs because of the administrative hassles in collecting berthage fees. The Small Craft Harbours Branch apparently wants to lease the wharves to the local governments for the same reason. Gibsons has had many problems, including fee collection, derelict boats, and sewage dumping in the harbour, with the wharf it leases from the federal government.

For a long time many men have considered yoga a course designed for women who had nothing else to do, but this year quite a few men discovered that the yoga exercises gave them an increased feeling of well-being, firmed up flabby muscles, and they also found that backaches and muscle-tensions diminished or disappeared. The deep breathing exercises have helped people suffering from insomnia to get into such a relaxed frame of mind that it allowed them to fall into a healthy and lasting sleep. It is a fact that yoga has become a daily and necessary part of far more people's lives since the number of classes available was increased last Fall. All Yoga classes are open to men and women, beginners and advanced students. Evans Hermon continues the Saturday classes during April in Sechelt Elementary School, Kindergarten from If a.m. to I p.m. Fee is $8 for eight hours. Yoga classes are also offered at Lord Jim's Lodge every Tuesday morning in April from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Wednesday evenings from 7-10 p.m; The fee is $16 for 12 hours, including pool and sauna. Students are asked to preregister for these and, all other courses because most of the classes are limited to about 10 students each. Livia Whittall from North Vancouver will be back in April to give another Dog Obedience Course in Gibsons Elementary School, Outdoor area.

Susan Nichols, whose enjoyable articles on nutrition can be read every week in the Peninsula Times, will give four two-hour lectures every Wednesday in April. In the first session the Instructor will demonstrate how to select and combine foods for healthy eating at a modest price and without the use of supplements. "Explore the Vegetarian World" Is on the program on April 14, because many people believe that complete proteins only are found in meat, Susan Nichols will show how legumes and grains can be combined to make good proteins that cost less than meat and provide variety to a "meat and potato" menu. A lecture on vitamins Is third on the list and 'Metric in the Kitchen' will finally help us to understand how the metric system will affect the homemaker and how to deal with It. The fee for this course is $6 for eight hours, and there Is good reason to believe that ptosc attending will get full valuo for their money. It It time to think of the summer wardrobe.

The following is the text of a speech delivered recently by Dr. Eric Paetkau to teenage volunteers at St. Mary's Hospital's Junior Awards night. We think die points he makes on survival in the world will be of interest to other teenage as well as adult perjjnis. If you recall Dr. Paetkau was the Social Credit candidate in this riding.in the last provincial election. ��� Editor. "As this is a graduation ceremony I will deal with it as such. I am told most of you are very near 15 years of age and are starting on your Decade of Decision. ' The average 15 year, old in Canada has watched about 7,000 hours of TV, and could not be blamed for considering the four most important aspects of life to be 1. detergents, 2. toothpaste, 3. hair spray, 4. antl-perspirant. But your girls with your exposure to the hospital have had an extra share of love, mercy, patience and understanding. Hopefully they will always be the goals in your lives. Probably most of your lives you've been told you are "too young". To-night I'm going to treat you as being "Old Enough" and will give you some of my ideas on survival in this world. There are three kinds ��� Physical ��� Mental ��� Social. Do's and Don'ts. 1. Don't join the slothful majority. You may never be In better physical shape than you are now In. But as I alluded to before, 84 per cent of people over age 13, watch TV more than 4 hours a week. Only 24 per cent spend more than 1 hour a week exercising other than walking. 2. Don't Drink and Drive. In the next 10 years, your decade of decision, your chances of killing yourself are higher than at any other, time in your life. Most of these deaths are in car accidents. Most include drinking. Riding a motor bike really Increases your chances. 3. Don't drink to excess. You arc merely killing yourself slowly. Alcohol's a socially accepted drug. It can be very pleasant and relaxing aspect of civilization. But it's addictive, and causes more sickness than all other drugs combined. 4. Don't smoke. Chronic lung disease with Its crippling disabilities is very real. Look around you. No one escapes Its affect. Any young person who smokes In the face of all we know about tobacco Is cither ignorant or a fool, or morally soft. Don't get fat I Most of you will put on another 10 pounds In tho next 10 years ������ make sure it Is not fat. Mental survival is more subtle. Closely related to self-confidence, also related to Interest, The greater your Interest tho better you perform. 1. Resist pressures to specialize too soon. Keep your horizons wide ��� gain lots of knowledge and experience. You will bo much more effective In your first field of endeavour. 2. Don't listen to Intellectuals who claim we are burdened by work ethic. There la no such thing as work ethic. Hard work Is a biological survival characteristic. Whatever you do ��� work hard at it. 3. Don't become a drug addict. They nre powerful and deadly, Remember, there's a large effective organization In'Canadn, whoso only financial Interest Is to get you hooked. Your friends may tell you pot is harmless. But current medical thinking Is that the ef- fects are cumulative. The effects listed are; 1.Irreversible brain damage. 2. Per- Section B Wednesday, March 24,1976 Poges 1-8 echelt's future still hazy Any sightings off twofers should be reported IHIiEDIATELY. Approximately 40 people attended the Sechelt Vicinity Study meeting in Sechelt Sunday but there appeared to be no firm, conclusions drawn about the future of Sechelt. After the meeting Area A regional director ��� Peter Hoemberg told The Times a vote was taken on the three alternatives the Sechelt $250 fines for neglecting auto insurance Two men were fined $250 apiece in Sechelt Provincial court Wednesday for driving without auto insurance after failing to renew their ICBC premiums before Feb. 29. Arnold Joselin was stopped by Sechelt RCMP March 4 after police noticed his carv without 1976 decals. Joselin told the court he was a doctor and an immigrant and did not know the law regarding the insurance renewal,. - "As a doctor I am very busy and did not watch television or read the newspapers and therefore was unaware when "insurance had to be renewed. "I assumed that my insurance would be good-for 12 months after purchase, the same as it is in England. I purchase insurance last September." Joselin also told the the court he did not get a renewal notice from ICBC. "I'm going to burst into tears in a moment," Judge Ian Walker said, "what does your insurance policy say." ��� "My policy says, in very small letters, that one has to look very hard to see, that my insurance is due in February," Joselin said. Judge Walker imposed the minimum penalty of $250. Police stopped Roger Wilcox March 1 and found he was driving without insurance or a driver's licence. * Wilcox told the court he had neglected to come to Sechelt to renew his licence and that on the day he was stopped, the weather forced him to drive a vehicle that was not insured. He said he owned two vehicles, one of which was insured. Judge Walker fined Wilcox $25 for driving without a licence and $250 for driving without insurance. Vicinity Study Committee had presented to the public. Three people voted for the Regional Town concept. On the idea of Sechelt as a Public Recreation Centre, 17 people concurred. Ten people voted for the Resource Development concept. Hoemberg said that although people voted on the concepts it was difficult to say exactly what people wanted. He said the committee will now have to decide where to go with the Sechelt Vicinity. your local resident Sunshine Coast agent: i 885-3438 P.O.'Box 1278 Sechelt Occidental Life r Not everyone subscribes to the The PEi^iNSULA^^efi.

The last point leads to some do's and don'ts about boyfriends. 1. Don't think about sex superficially. The difference in sex thinking between boys and girls cannot be bridged. Boys experience a powerful drive, are impatient and usually lack gentleness and commitment. Girls are usually the,opposite. Early teen sex Is not the fulfilling experience ���for-girls that you read about in books. So, don't be ln a hurry to get married. Do study his brain power as well as his brawn, and it might not hurt to take a good look at his dad. Social Survival ��� Humans are a very aggressive animal who have learned to some extent to co-operate. There have, and always will be prophets of gloom and doom. But we aro adaptive and can change without changing circumstances. Those who can't, won't survive. Because we aro aggressive we need controls which are our laws ��� respect them. Change them when necessary, but If you don't respect them, social survival becomes moro difficult. Do respect and cherish good teachers who , Instill In you the love of learning for Its cfwn sake. Be suspicious of teachers who teach you their own opinions aa facta. Be suspicious of teachers who won't tolerate discussion. Bo wary of the words "always and never". Be careful of overdoing a basic logic. For instance, women's lib, wo would all agree Uiat women who do the same work as men should be rewarded In the same wuy. But to carry that to the extremes of equality In every way Is a biological absurdity. Microscopically Uicre Is a difference In tho cells, and microscopically you've already noticed the difference and It's exciting. Beware of those who tell you you havo rights. You have no more rights than any other competitive animals. However, we liave a society which, If it works, will give you rlghti, but It can only give you thoso rights If society is made to work. So therefore, your duty Is to add more to society than you subtract or cine It will break down. I wish you all Good Ijick.

The Rats currently held first place and Gibsons in their drive for the league championship needed a win. The -weather was ideal and the game was played on the new Elphinsone field. From the opening kickoff Gibsons pressed to the attack forcing the play in the Rats end. Both teams were extremely wary of each others explosive power forcing the game into a tight checking, close contest. Gibsons scored first as they caught the- Rats sleeping on a throw in. Ken Bland tossed a long throwin into the goalkeepers box and as the Rats stood around watching the ball, Steve Miles raced in and tapped the ball into the net. The Rats were spurred into action by this goal and though they didn't carry all the play, they scored the equalizer at the 30 minute mark. Tjie ball became entangled in a Gibsons defenders feet and when it popped out the Rats center forward drove the ball passed the surprised Gibsons goalie. In the second half the Wanderers superior .conditioning began to wear the Rats. down. Gibsons controlled most of the play missing many good scoring chances. When the Rats did break out however, they were extremely dangerous and at the 75th minute forced goalie Jan de Revs to make a spectacular save. With less than three minutes to play Gibsons had a throw in deep in the Rat's territory. Steve Miles tossed the long ball over the Rat defenders and Frank Hoehne raced in "to head the first bounce past the goalie into the net. The game ended Gibsons 2 Ratsl. The game was not the best the Wanderers have played,- due perhaps to nervousness before the home crowd. The Rats did not play their super fast, hustling game either. Good efforts were turned in by Mike Musgrove, Kerry Eldred, Ken Verhulst, Frank Hoehne and Dan McKay. Gibsons next game is on March 21,12:30 p.m. at Central Park, Burnaby. The Wanderers next home game is in Gibsons March 28,12:00 noon at Elphinstone. The Elphinstone Wanderers would like to extend their thanks to Mr. Ernie Fossett and the RCCA for the use of their hall, plus Mr. Bill Edney for his timely donation.

Sechelt's first Skat-A-Thom will take place April 10 at the Sechelt Arena. It is in aid of minor hockey and figure skating. This event is open to everyone, either as a spectator to encourage your favorite skater, or as a participant. The idea is to challenge your friends to skate the most laps in the one hour time limit. The schedule for skaters is as follows: 8 a.m.-9 a.m. ��� Boys and girls up to eight years old. * 9:15 a.m-10:l5 a.m. ��� Boys and girls ages nine and 10. 10:30 a.m.-ll:30 a.m. ��� Boys age 11-13 inclusive. -,! 11:45 a.m.-12:45. p.nx-rr.Boys, age 14-18 Inclusive. / 1 p.m.-2 p.m. ��� Girls 11 years old and up. ^"2:15 p.m.-3:15 p.m. ��� All adult hockey players from all leagues. 3:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m. ��� All ladies and men. 5 p.m.-6 p.m. ��� Dignitaries Skating. In the dignitaries category, it is expected there will be challenges from the village mayors, the fire chiefs, the Regional Board chairman, the Kiwanis Club, and Lions Club, Curling Club, the Arena Association and any other club or organization which wishes to sponsor or enter a skater. For those wishing to sponsor a skater on a per lap basis, but have no idea what it could end up costing them, it takes a top athlete and string skater an hour to complete 150 laps. No 150 tappers are expected until the 14 to 18 year-old category and then only a few will complete that goal. It is doubtful that any "adult hockey players could endure such a task, but the grapevine has it that the new arena manager, Ernie Kos, is willing to challenge any of these fellas ��� any takers? ccesstub sports trip ender Harbour teams Pender Harbour's hard working coach Jack Tiernan took his teams to Ucluelet for the weekend March 12-14. Mark Myers did his usual excellent job driving the bus. Friday night saw two basketball games. SENIOR GIRLS Pender 28 - -Ucluelet 24 This was a scrappy game, as Pender had been travelling since 7:30 a.m., but were able to come up with a win over a well coached team. Geraldine Bilcik had 10 points, Sheila Scoular 6. SENIOR BOYS Pender 41 - Ucluelet 54 Pender was ahead at end of third quarter when Mile Kammerle fouled out, and when Kelly Barabash fouled out In the fourth, that was too much to overcome. Mike had 18 points and Kelly 10. Saturday saw two basketball games and four sets of three volleyball games. JUNIOR GIRLS Pender 24 - Ucluelet 23 Pender was playing well with a good defense and waiting their chances for good shots, and dominated the first half. Then they got sloppy, allowed for easy baskets at beginning of second half, and had to struggle to win by one point, making for an exciting fourth quarter. Violet' Bilcik got 10 points, Moklo Sterloff 4, JUNIOR BOYS Pender 32.-.Ucluclct 25 Ponder boys commanded tho game throughout but the need for more shooting accuracy hurt them when they missed several easy layups, but this kept the game close and exciting. Bobby Mercer was high scorer with 10 points. VOLLEYBALL Junior Girls won 2 to 1. Losing the first game but coming back strongly to win the last two. Junior Boys won 3-0. They were too strong for their opposition, not having any trouble to win. Senior Girls lost 0-3. This was the opposite of the Junior Boys, the opposition was just too good. - Senior Boys won 2-1. Probably the best set of the series, Pender boys blew a big lead in the first game and lost. They then settled down to play the game the way Coach Tiernan has been telling them to, and with discipline and hard work they took the next two games from a good opposition. Pender was surprised that their opposition was so well coached, and disciplined. The officiating was fair and strict, done by students of recent graduates. The trip to tho Island was made in glorious weather., A stop was made at Cathedral Gove, which impressed the students. The teams played Friday night and Saturday, and came back on Sunday after finding time for a visit to Long Boach. This was voted as tho best trip of tho season and much enjoyed by all, Did you know that... Federal government operating expenses during the fifty years nftdr Confedorationi were paid mostly through duty and excise taxes. Personal income tax did not come Into effect until 1017, and, at tho time, was Intended ns a temporary measure to offset tho costs of tho war. B.C.

TIME CLOCK WANTED Once again I will repeat "Get raffle ticket money in." Coaches, you are doing a most unselfish Job, coming out each weekend to coach kids ln tho game of hockey, but darn It, It only takes a bit more effort while you are ROBERTS CREEK goal by Bob Blake wasn't enough to hold off Wakefield in the second game of the play-offs Thursday night. Wakefield won the game five to three with their fourth goal coming in the game's last minute of play.

SKAT-A-THON PLEDGES OUT ^ Hope kids are a bit peppier about getting pledges for the .Skat-A-Thon than they are selling tickets. Parents, prod your kids into getting pledges because they aren't skating without them. Don't forget, a ten speed bike goes to whoever raises the most money. I'm up to' $1.00 a lap and it has taken 24 pledges to do that, so if an adult can get that much, and I've only skated twice this year, then think how well you kids could do when you are in good skating condition and have all kinds of time to get out and ask people for pledges; I also have one son who has $30 worth of pledges right now, and he only has to skate 50 laps to get those maximum $5 pledges. 150 LAPS IS NEARLY MAXIMUM Don't be afraid to pledge 2 or 3 cents per lap to the kids. You must be in good physical condition to do more than 150 laps, and this is pretty well juvenile age and up, so if a little eight-year-old comes to the door and asks for a pledge, he .isn't going to break you, and if each kid goes around and gets 1,2 or 5 cents from 50 people, then each person is only paying a small amount but the pledges will add up to many dollars. Anyone who has not been able to get a card can get them at Trail Bay Sports or Frode's barber shop. Or else ask at the arena office or Glenn Phillips. So far I think the Davis Bay area kids are well ahead ln their pledges. Hurray for Davis Bay! BROOM BALL TEAMS As of Mar. 19 there were 22 teams registered for broom ball and entries close April 1st. so get your entry, name of team, and registration money of $7 in now, before you're too late. ,, There is a trophy donated for the winner as well as prizes, so this will probably turn into an annual thing. SPORTS DINNER FOR ALL ADULTS ��� Do not forget, there is a limited amount of tickets for the Sportsman Dinner May Vth. 180 only, so got yours soon. They will probably bo selling them at our closing dance April 10th. so come out to the dance, support yotir arena, and get your tickets there. Duo to misinterpretation of the flyer announcement, please do not think the dinner Is for men only. Ladles arc invited too, but please keep your 18 year olds nt home, because they are under age nnd everyone Is aware that it is against the Jaw for under age people to drink. And while we are at it, if your under age kids think it is funny getting into Uie Arena bar, just don't forget parents, Uiat one underage comedian can spoil our bar privileges for everyone, so it is about tlmo parents put their foot down and Instead of laughing nnd thinking your kids aro smart. Don't forget, you lose your drinking privileges along with tho rcHt of ua, so keep your kids out of tho bar. ORANGE BOMBS THE BLUE Over tho Hill'March 12th. saw tho orange team boat Uio blue 15 to 3.

By and large, however, the film seems to have been greatly enjoyed, and one of our members was seeing it happily for the third time. Of this week's film, Le Fantome De La Liberte, Bunuel's latest film made in 1974, Time magazine for Oct. 21, '74 says (in part): "The movie is black and blasphemous in Bunel's manner. It is not so piquant as his recent Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, but it is full of effusive invention and flourishes of high humour mat do not seem to tax Uie 74-year-old director in the least."

Item No. 2 Mr. Dennis Gray, chairman of the Motorcycle Events for Timber Days, has scheduled a motorcycle cross-country race. Other events may be arranged before Timber Days but, for the most part, these events will be entered into by local motorcyclists. It is not expected that riders from Vancouver will compete this year.

Soft- cover published by Grosset and Dunlap, 106 pages, cl975. Available at Books and Stationery. See a picture of a shark and it is enough to conjure up fearsome thoughts of the man- eating Jaws of film fame. In fact, the title Shark Frenzy Is a form of excited behavior during which sharks gather and feed. The notoriety gained by Uils creature of the deep has also worked to its advantage. Shark-o- manla has caused writers and photographers to produce material which dispells some fears and reveals many facts about the fish. This profusely Illustrated, Inexpensive sof- cover can satiate your curiosity and add to your knowledge. It Is arranged by topic: Sharks, Types, Attacks, Safety. The text is supported by statistics arising from scientific studies and quotations by those who have suffered first hand experience with this sleek wolf of the sea. The section which will appeal most to tho render with a macabre bent Is Attack. The brutal but honest reports show that Mr. Sliark is a very unpredictable fellow I Ho finds men tastier than women, likes to strike in shallow water, nnd seeks out his victim with a single minded purpose. If It Is any comfort, recorded shark attneks total a little over 1,000 with only one in five counted fatal. Sharks also ram boats If they arc in a nasty temper. However, it appears by maps that wo have naught to fear In our area because the , man-enters favour waters further to the south. For laymen sliark fanciers who wish to know-nll-nlKiut-lt-wlUiout-rcnlly-lrying-lt Shark Frenzy Is n bargain. couver artist Michael Morris of Uie Western Front, however, I was told that Fantome was a fantastic film which took Discreet Charm a step further, and another of our members who saw the film in Vancouver where he is. now working also maintains that it is a truly wonderful film. Both are planning to travel from Vancouver to see Uie film, and Michael thought we were astonishingly fortunate to be able to see Bunuel's last two films in such close juxtaposition. The following is an extract from a review from The Monthly Film Bulletin of February, 1975: "Using precisely me same, technique (as for Discreet Charm) of interrupted naifative in Le Fantome De La Liberte, Bunuel this time makes the interruptions yawn more widely, switching thematic ground on each occasion so that Uie audience is suspended, as it were, over an uncharted abyss. Precisely as he did in L'Age D'Or, in fact; and precisely the same motifs recur in the new film, which once again makes the human mind, haunted by its ineffectual attempts to come to terms with Marx's "phantom of liberty", the battleground for a subversive challenge to conventional attitudes to sex, religion, politics. All three themes are introduced in the prologue where the Spaniards stouUy reject the offer of liberation from their oppression with cries of "Vivan las cadenas!" ("Long live chains", or "Down with liberty!") as the English title has it, following Bunuel's French subtitle." Tickets for the upcoming Film Society dance on April 3 are now available to members only at the Dogwood Cafe and at Whitaker House. They will also be on sale before the screening of the film mis Wednesday. There are. only 200 tickets available at $3 each, this to avoid over-crowding.

Following this for a three day run is the restricted feature, 'Charlotte'. This is the latest offering from French filmmaker Roger Vadim, who is regarded in Europe as a man who has raised film eroticism to an art. In this French-Italian-German co-production, he has written, produced and directed a study of death as the ultimate pleasure. He also plays a leading male role as an author fascinated with Uie death of a young girl whom he knew briefly. Although the police have secured a confession to the murder, someone else may be guilty and only at the climax are the circumstances made clear. ^E Village Applications are invited for the position of maintenance man for the Village.

Witii all the diversity of life, with all the different backgrounds and interests of each individual, we all share at least one thing in common each one of us is seeking for greater fulfillment. We always enjoy gaining greater energy, intelligence, and happiness ��� tins desire is our nature to accomplish and experience more and more. This is the basis of evolution. Yet we are not finding an increased intelligence as we seek to expand our relationships with our environment. Therefore, we find this basic tendency of life towards more and more is not being satisfied. The enemy to progress is stress. It inhibits Uie system and disallows freedom of action. The multiple demands of day to day living place a considerable strain on us all. The quality of life is found to be uncomfortable at every level of society. A student is asked to assimilate an ever increasing volume of knowledge; a businessman must remain effective in the midst of complex pressures; and a mother must give all of her wisdom and energy to support the needs of her children:. In the face of each situation we must intelligently locate a way in which to disallow stress from increasing as we seek to improve Living. One possible solution is to minimize activity. This solution would be basically unnatural, since, as we've considered, the very tendency of life is to constantly evolve and grow to greater achievement. Decreasing activity will be opposed to the nature of life; shrinking from the field of problems will create more dissatisfaction. In failing to accomplish our goals, we would be creating greater anxiety. Decreasing activity will then mean increasing stress. Our other alternative is to increase the abilities of the individual, so mat one can support increased progress and simultaneously eliminate unwanted stress. If one could grow to gain more energy and creative intelligence, one could spontaneously fulfill all desires with a minimum effort. This is what the practice of TM achieves. TM is a timely addition to the requirement of progress, practitioners of TM have the spontaneous ability to think oh very quiet levels and naturally then thoughts will include in their range all that is valuable for effective results in activity.

Jim Neilson the civil servants he employs have no right to make a mockery of the district's efforts to plan the area it represents. Although Powell River's dispute with this ministry over a freeze placed on 10,000 acres of crown land is of little direct consequence to Peninsula residents, the attitudes and principles set forth in the letter are significant. That significance being ��� where does, and should, the jurisdiction for community planning ultimately lie? Powell River Regional Board chairman Harold Lennox complains to Mr. Neilson that "while the regional board is charged with the responsibility of area planning and supplied with the ample means of sensibly doing so, once again our efforts are being thwarted by bureaucrats whose wages we have the pleasure of paying." Mr. Lennox's. frustration and our concern arises from the fact the Department of Lands, which falls under the Ministry of Environment, has at its disposal, all the crown land in B.C. In the past this department has released crown land over the objections of the SCRD. Most of the objections centred around servicing costs for a small number of lots set up in virtually the middle of nowhere. It seems obvious that releasing crown land (or freezing it as in Powell River's case) for subdivision should l)e incorporated into any planning being' undertaken by the local regional district. However, the Department of Lands, as shown by Powell River's dilemma,1 can do whatever it wants. Crown land makes up a sizable portion of the SCRD's territory and its use can only become more significant in the future. The magnitude of influence the use of this land could have on area residents takes it desposition well If the members of parliament vote in favor of keeping and enforcing capital punishment laws and if no other way can be found of satisfactorily paying for the Olympic games, we have a suggestion. Hold the hangings in the Olympic stadium and charge the general public $15 a head admission. Witii 15 people beyond the whims of Victoria's civil servants and puts it in the lap of local politicians. Lennox's statement that "civil servants directly under your ministry have shown residents and taxpayers they have no real respect for people involvement in the democratic planning process" can easily be extrapolated to the meddling by other ministeries in community planning. And SCRD chairman John McNevin did so. He mentioned that the province's Depart-. ment of Highways has the final say in subdivision planning on the Sunshine Coast, but has no business having that say. Although a mutual respect seems to exist between the SCRD and the highways department, civil servants should not have this influence in community planning. The potential for disagreement does exist but the final say does not lie with the elected community representative. It seems questionable to have a department which is primarily concerned with roads in the position of approving officer for subdivisions. The Highways Department, if it chooses, can ignore local by-laws, and impose restrictions on subdivisions thought unnecessary by local regional boards. Provincial expertise has a place in community planning but only in an advisory capacity. Necessary nonresident expertise and advice must be tempered with the wisdom that comes with being a local resident in the area planning will effect. The non-resident experts that permeate bureaucracies do not have to endure effects of planning. Election promise for more control to local government levels not withstanding, the regional districts of this province should have the ultimate control in community planning. For this reason we heartily support the SCRD's stand on the Powell River letter and would hope the relevant ministers in Victoria can be cajoled into meaningful dialogue on ways of making democratic planning more of a reality. @ 9 �� waiting on death row and a 70,000 seat stadium, that means a revenue of $15,750,000. (Not counting discounts for double headers on season's tickets.) Expand the capital punishment laws to include other types of murder and the number on death row could quadruple, quadrupling the income. 'minutes" by Don Morberg CAT O' MINE TALES. You recall I told you a while ago that I own a cat. Not your average cat, naturally; but a grungy little pure black tomcat named Ninja. When Ninja and I moved into bur new house recently, we were delighted; he moreso because the back yard is about 75 acres of trees allowing him free run of the jungle. The Jungle, he soon learned, is inhabited by little birds, furry creatures and, worse luck, cats. When we first moved in, Ninja was visited by a number of felines who had previously laid claim to that stretch of reul estate. Ninja, being a young male, soon set out to carve his own territory; his place In tho sun, so to speak. During tho course of his conquests, he received for his trouble, a bite on the bottom. Discussions, particularly real estate discussions, often go farther than the verbal stage. This apparently wus the case ns Nlnjn's latter half got in the way of a flying tooth. The Inflicted wound was no biggie, as wounds go; but It did develop into a nasty situation. Enter a well-known medical authority on the maladies of said feline. ' Ninja and Doc Perry are not strangers. When Ninja was no bigger than u politician's Intergrlty, he wns dragged kicking and screaming Into Iho vet clinic to have some nasty creatures eradicated from his ears and to get a shot to prevent his termination nt the lunula of Hits dreaded distemper. That experience did not endear him to the nnliim! side of the medical profession. HOWEVER, tho worsening condition on Nlnjn's southern exposure caused mo to arrange for the two to meet once more. That happened on Thursday and when I got back to the office, there wns a phone message from Iho clinic My baby was undergoing some performance- which required general anaesthetic, the note said, and did they want me to have him neutered as long as his conscious was oul lunch? What? My Ninja? Nipped In the hud, so to speak? 1 HAVE a friend who hns n theory that mnlft-lypv) people, do not like to have their f ' PENINSULA- ' ' DATELINE by Leslie Yates "This anti-seal hunt business has gone, on long enough." Editorials don't reflect views of 90% majority Editor, The Times; Sir: I am amazed that two of our three local newspapers can report on a meeting where 32 of 40 people voted to, retain capital punishment and only four voted to abolish it and the publish editorials strongly in favor of the 10 per cent minority. This is a blatant case of a few squeaky wheels vying for all the grease. One would seriously wonder if newspaper editors want to keep criminals alive so they can be assured of the occasional sensational news of a hostage taking and stories like the two people out on bail for murder in Calgary killing yet another. And the terminology! Lynch mob! I was at the same meeting, of course, and I saw no evidence of anyone wanting to sentence any person without a trial ��� not even anyone wanting to deny mercy if such was recommended. What I did hear was a plea to abide by the law, adhere to the justice system and prevent matters of capital punishment being thwarted by our political system ��� of which there is room for considerable improvement. Mr. Mackenzie points out that there are "only 15" on death row. Had not our politicians already interfered and limited the death penalty to killers of police and prison guards, there would be considerably more and these other killers are a continuing liability as long as they are in prison ��� .such as Messrs. Bruce and Lucas of recent sensational memory. It was also made clear at this meeting that any money saved should be used to seek out these problems while still curable. Society does not regard the problem as a mercenary one, as he suggests. These killers were called 'animals' which was an unf ortuate insult to ordinary animals who kill only to satisfy their hunger. These killers are sub-human and have no place in society. It is too bad we keep harping on 'punishment' and 'deterrent' etc. The two people in Calgary recently showed not only that they would rather die than be incarcerated. Hanging is not so much a punishment than a means of ridding society of an intolerable liability. If one wants a beautiful garden, one has to destroy the weeds and bugs. If we want a beautiful society, we must ensure that our politicians carry out our wishes and not be swayed by minorities who do all the squeaking. Tom Wood DavisBay Council ..'destroyed9., beach' male-type pets neutered; sort of emasculation by association. I don't believe it, of course; I have long been an advocate that pets of the female persuasion should be spayed lest we be up to our bottles in pets; but it also occurred to me that If one half of the bunch were clipped; there would be no reason to clip the other half, that logic, apparently, never occurred to the lady I telephoned at the animal hospital. Also, It appeared to me that she was ready for any argument I could come up with. "It will make him a much better pet," she said, "He'll bo a much nicer pet to have around and he'll probably stay around the house more." (Heaven forbid!) "You obviously care about him. You had a distemper shot and his cars done and you've brought him In now, so you should have him neutered." (didn't sec how that followed; but she seemed quite confident and I was weakening.) That was when she dropped the coup de grace. ��;.> "If you have him done while he's out for this operation, you'll only be cliarged for ono anaesthetic." Suddenly wliat she was saying began to make sense. Slio appealed to tho only true place of North American vulnerability ��� the pockctbook. My cat's sex life dimmed In comparison with a healthier balance in my chequing account. With Uiat I consented to have Nlnjn rendered fit to guard the sultan's harem, I was feeling a llttly guilty thereafter .. wandered over to my neighbourhood convenience storo (I'll be dammed if Big Mac will get any free, advertising hero) and decided to drown my sorrows In a toffee ripple ice cream cone. I confessed to Big Mac what I Imd done and ho said It was a good thing because he didn't want my cat being responsible for putting his in a family way. ] was indignant for both my cat and myseb, I've seen Big Mac's cat and Ninja has more taste than that. AS I WRITE this, I'm preparing to call the clinic and see when visiting hours are. I hope Nlnjn Reca my side of the situation. I hope tlws lady has a chance to talk with him before I get there; she certainly could convince him that It was the right thing to do. Editor, The Times; Sir: "Beauty lies in the eye Of the beholder", and in the eyes of the five men on Sechelt village council, a grubby, pothole-ridden, blacktop road is more beautiful than the magnificent beach which forms the southern boundary of the village, of Sechelt. Do you know what our five elected representatives have done? They, have destroyed the beach in front of Sechelt. They have dumped huge, jagged, shards of rock, some pieces as big as a truck, on the beach at Sechelt, and covered this great unsightly pile with dirt, sand and gravel. What reason do our councillors give for this appalling destruction of a lovely, natural setting? They want to save the road that skirts the beach. , How many roads do we have in B.C.? How many beaches? Anyway, the road in question has been there for over 60 years, and for all those years the waves have been pounding in on the beach, without moving the road. The damn road stays in place. But will the dirt thrown on the rocks on the beach stay in place? And when the waves wash the dirt away, the. hideous mess of rocks will be exposed. Will the rocks stay in place? Go and look at the beach at low tide. A few years ago there was not a single obstruction on the entire beach from the wharf to Henderson's. Now there are rocks strewn up and down and all along the beach. I took hundreds of millions of years for nature to form the countless smooth and shining pebbles, the gentle, even, slope and the perfect sweeping crescent of Sechelt's beach. It took a few days for village council to destroy it. Mary Gross Sechelt Apology owed for column It appears impaired drivers are not going to escape the demands for increased law and order that seems to be rippling across the nation. Arid rightly so. In fact, right here in Sechelt, the unpaired driver responsible fo a person's death, almost ended up with a noose around his neck. Death .caused by an unpaired driver was one of only a few death, related crimes the local justice council did not endorse as punishable by death. (Some people voted in favor.) I don*t really know, why, they rejected it, maybe impaired driving is something related too easily to everyone's social clime. Hanging impaired drivers for involvement in tragic automobile accidents is no doublt a little tough; but one thing is clear, the deterrents now employed by the courts do not work. And the Sunshine Coast is certainly no exception. In 1974 the number of charges laid between the Gibsons and Sechelt RCMP detachments for impaired driving and driving with a blood- alcohol count over .08 percent was 92. In 1975 that number climbed to 152. that is a 60 per cent increase in one year. So far in 1976 there are no indications there will be any fewer drunk drivers charged than in 1975. Granted these figures do not give an accurate account of how many drivers jyere charged because many drivers would have been charged with both over .08 and impaired driving. Regardless the trend is clear. Presently, a driver convicted of impaired driving for the first time ends up with a fine (usually $300 to $400) and is given a driving suspension of one month. The second time the same person is convicted he generally ends up with another fine and a longer suspension. The third time he is off to jail. Associated Chambers of Commerce of Vancouver Island certainly recognized the ineffectiveness of these deterrents at their recent convention in Courtenay. The convention delegates came up with a few ideas, some even showing imagination, they, want the lawmakers to take into consideration in coining up with more meaningful and punitive deterrents to Impaired driving. These goodies included longer suspensions, doubling or trebling present fines, a marked increase in insurance premiums for those convicted of impaired driving, a five year mandatory suspension after a third conviction and a mandatory psychiatric assessment for convicted persons. A novel suggestion that caught my eye was the issuance of an 'impaired drivers licence plate' to be placed on the convicted person's car for a set period after the first offense. Wouldn't that do it ��� being branded as an impaired driver and a potential hazard to other vehicles. It would be worse than having your name in the paper every day for a month. Needlessly cruel and inhumane? Possibly, but when you think about it, student driver's cars are branded, slow trucks are branded, emergency vehicles are branded ��� all in the name of safety for those within sight of these vehicles. This remedy will never be employed but one could guess those with an impaired drivers licence plate are likely not to put their cars on the road for the length of time they have the plate. \ Coming back within the realm of possibility, Editor, The Times; Sir: With reference to your column "53 Put natives studies on curriculum Editor, The Times; Sir: Pursuant to your front page article In the March 3 Issue, I would like to voice my support for the Idea of adding Native Indian studies to tho curriculum of Elphinstone Secondary at least, and possibly the elementary school as well. Aside from obvious social advantages to broadening the scope of our graduates, I am forced to think back on incarceration In the public school system, nnd how I would have appreciated and enjoyed such nn opportunity. In retrospect it seems to me that the vast majority of wlint I was taught In high school was of no value in the real world. Social responsibility wns an urea left untouched by'teachers and administrators, and wo are obviously paying tho prlco for making students work these things out without Instruction or guidance. I believe that courses of this nature would do much to Increase mutual respect and rcsponsiblity ninnm* the students. I .suspect the powers tliut Ik; would find many of their problems solved hy simply tcnchlng the students to think of themselves ns people, and Native Indian studies would go farther than one might think toward achieving this end. Communication is, after all, the key word. P.I., Held Granthams Poet's Corner ���Your contributions are invited IT'S SPRING Tears from heaven wash the trees Then dry them with a cooling breeze, All the while the sparrows sing Telling all the world, "It's Spring." Once more the world is painted bright, The day goes on for half die night, Mother Nature has her fling, New life comes forth and it is spring!, Tulips, children, puddles and grass - Mother Nature's looking glass; Love and laughter's on the wing, A new beginning; "It is spring"! Minutes" in your edition of March 17,1976,1 would like to make the following observations. I was not at the recent meeting of the Sechelt Justice Development Commission, at which time the Issue of Capital Punishment was debated. However, should I have been present I would have voted empliatlcally in favour of retention nnd, without debating the issue, 1 would suggest that when such u majority favour retention it should, behoove you to nt least give some credence to their liellcfa and not put them down in the manner you did. I trust, for your snke, that not too many of the people who voted for retention hike time to look up the definition of "lynch-mob" because, by all definitions I hnvo been able to locate, a lynch mob or to lynch means to hnng without a trial and, by your wildest stretches of Imagination, I can't believe that you feel that anyone at the meeting liad that in mind. I therefore believe, Mr. Morberg, that yqu owe the persons present at that meeting, nn apology. I would also, in closing, take Issue with your statement, "To hnng an innocent man, ns has happened," and I would clmllcngc you to document this statement and upon doing so, forward the documentation to Solicitor General Almand, who no doubt would Completely saturate the news media across Canada in support of his nbollshlnlst campaign. This no doubt would obtain for you nn award for outstanding journalism, which I would fully support. But, until this is done, I am left with the feeling that you arc guilty of misleading news reporting. Don Pyo Secret Cove I believe upping the fines for impaired driving does not provide half the deterrent that lengthy drivers licence suspensions would bring. Before you knew it, only the rich could afford to be charged with impaired driving. Having a drivers licence suspended for six months to a year for a first conviction and two years for a second and five for a third makes a lot of sense ��� because it would hurt, in this automobile orientated age. The axiom is simple. If you are going to drink then don't drive and if you are going to anyway then the state is going to make reasonably sure you are hot going to climb back behind the wheel of a car until you clean up your act. Sure, toss in the fines, in this age of restraint there ought to be some way of. covering the costs necessary to take drivers licences away. But what is the use of making fines excessive ��� sending people to jail because they are poor is ridiculous. The Chamber's idea on mandatory , psychiatric assessment for those convicted has merit only to the extent that a problem drinker or an alcoholic may be detected and helped before he is put back in the position where people or property can be hurt. Why fine and suspend a problem drinker who drives only to have him return to court three and four times for the same charge when the chances of him helping himself with his drinking problem are minimal? If they are not going to get help from the court system, then the person's licence should be taken away until he has received the help and cure ' he needs. In the local court, I have seen problem drinkers as the judge for medical help instead of being sent to prison after they have been to court three or four times on impaired driving charges. By this time it is dawning on the driver he needs help but it could have dawned on the authorities that he has needed help from the time he was up on his first charge and received a fine and short suspension. Innocent people that have been hurt by the driving actions of this person between the first and fourth conviction, also know he should have had help ��� he should have at least "been prevented from driving much sooner. Look at Prince George. The land of ice and snow where people are supposed to have a higher birth rate because long winter evenings are spent between bed sheets (electric blankets?). One in every 56 residents was charged with impaired driving last year. That is 27 times the number per capita that are charged in the Lower Mainland. In towns like Prince George, either the local book dealer should start selling The Joy of Sex, or the courts better start handing out some meaningful deterrents. Large fines and short drivers suspensions aren't working. Leaving the drunks, another resolution passed by the Chambers' convention is of some note. It stated that enforcement agencies rather than criminals' rights should be given priority in the courtroom. That resolution brings to mind a conversation I had with an ex-police officer. Referring to the Calgary hostage incident he wanted to know why two guys charged with serious crimes are let out on bail. I said it is because in this country a person is innocent until he is proven guilty and that in reality a charge should not infer guilt. (Although I'm not naive enough to believe that it doesn't). He was of the opinion that the fact the police had laid charges there is a reasonable amount of guilt inferred and the accused should not be let free on bail. Well, I can't buy that, the same way as I cannot buy the Chambers' resolution to take any priority off the rights of the accused. For one thing it-sometimes takes months in our court system to bring a case to trial, and for another the crown council has the opportunity in a bail hearing to make a case f<��r trie accused to be refused ball. The very second the courts of this land changed the principle of innocent until proven guilty, by a court of law the possibility of autocratic tyranny by the enforcement Share agencies threatens. HOME VALUES There Is a complaint being voiced these days that values and basics aro lacking In our educational system. In days past, thoso elements were fostered in the home for the^e wero few dollars but there wns lots of time to carry them out. On Sundays (sometimes dally) the family bible was brought out nnd everyone took turns reading from it. Reading und values were taught nt'tho snmp tlmo. At the schoolhouac concert, recitation wns a popular Item on the program. Since thoro was no radio nnd no television, entertainment lay In conversation. ' .families communicated nnd played together'. The art of speaking clearly, con- slsely nnd correctly wns admired. Because the telephone wns not yet with us, letters wero sent to thoso fur away. Artistic handwriting and well turned phrases were used to convey u good Impression of oneself. There wero no computers, so accounts done mnnuully in tho homo and in business required both accuracy and speed. Neatness was an Important factor irt keeping books and documents for not everyone owned a machine which stamped out letters ond numbers In type. People spent most of tlielr life hp neighbourhoods and villages because travel was vory uncomfortable. Therefore, they had to blend harmoniously into tho community or lie ostracized. Values wero determined not only �� by the family but also the community. Modern education has borne the brunt of the blame when It comes to values and basics. If any Institution hns attempted change to keep up with society's needs, it is education. Tho fact that it hasn't become static is to its credit. Teachers are being nsked to tench values to groups of 30 children at a time ��� could parents with this number of offspring do tho same? Fortunately, fumllleB that size don't happen. The values which we carry with us throughout life are those we should and do acquire at home. Is it necessary to communicate in our homes today? How often during the day or week or even" year do families discuss directly the matter of values? For the average worker, docs society require that lie- she have more tlian Just Uio most fundamental knowledge of reading, writing and arithmetic? Are families, in fact, disappearing in today's almost uncontrolled pursuit of money, fume and fun? lastly, are homes and communities prepared to make changes to reinforce the values they expect from the schools?

Film goers, will not want to miss this programme for the films loaned by the Consulate General of Japan are always outstanding in their beauty and artistic quality. In the last film programme, courtesy of the National Film Board, 'Helicopter Canada'' offered a bird's eye view of Canada from east to-west. The helicopter flew low over the rocky coastline of, Lunenberg offering closeups of the fishing fleet. It cruised over the Bay of Fundy where you can pick yourself . a mess of fish when the tide is out.: Miners were seen leaving by a subterranean train which would carry them under the sea to dig for coal; There were glimpses of ships on the St. Lawrence and nickel mining and smelters in Ontario. - The helicopter skimmed skyscrapers over Ottawa and Montreal,-and crossed miles of prairie wheatlands. There were some unusual and daring shots of the Rockies and then the familiar beauty,of the west coast. 'Colours from the Queen' pictured the 1973 celebrations in Regina of the 100th birthday of the RCMP. It was a colourful and impressive ceremony as the colours were consecrated arid presented to the force by H.M. Queen . Elizabeth, who graciously accepted as a gift a magnificent jet .black RCMP horse named Centennial. Elsewhere in this paper is an account of the wedding of Kelly Eoley to Diana Brunn of Squamish. Kelly's family has been closely associated with the Sunshine Coast for many years and has lived at Roberts Creek, Sechelt and Halfmoon Bay. Kelly's paternal grand- . father was the late Barney Foley, a wejl- . known logger along this part of the coast. On the maternal side, Kelly is a great grandson of the late A.E. James who first visited Halfmoon Bay around 1900 and owned property in the Bay for nearly sixty years. Among former residents of the Sunshine Coast who attended the wedding and sent greetings to old friends were Mr. and Mrs. Murray Mackenzie, formerly of Roberts Creek and Mr. and Mrs. Ted Farewell and son Ken. Another guest was Mrs. Alfred Preston, the sister of Mrs. Bill Thoro, who has spent many happy holidays at her sister's Redrooffs home and who recalled breaking her ankle on one of these holidays and being taken to the old hospital at Garden Bay to be treated by Dr. John Playfair. Another Sunshine Coast ^enthusiast discovered among the guests was Ralph Darlington, who, as a boy in the 1930's spent his holidays at Selma Park at the home of his aunt, Mrs. Ruby Fisher. He recalled how he and his friends would spend many hours on the old Selma Park wharf which had been built by Red Line. There they would wait for the arrival of the steamers which called in ��� regularly and they would fight fiercely for the honour of tying up the ships as they docked. He talked nostalgically of the Lady Celia, the Chelohsin, the Capllano and Lady Pam. Sometimes the Lady Alexandra would call in on a special holiday trip with an orchestra in the stern playing Hawaiian music. Ralph Darlington also talked of a Japanese market gardener named Kinichee who lived at Porpoise Bay and whom the boys would accompany on his rounds, helping him deliver his vegetables. A few more weddings like that one and your correspondent would collect enough history to write a book! In April, Doug and Marion Foley will be leaving Squamish to open a furniture store in Chase. They will have for neighbours several former residents of our area such as the Ted Farewells, the Ed Cooks and the Dave Herrins. It is encouraging to see the Highways Dept. getting busy on the Redrooffs Road. Ditches are being cleaned out and deepened and some of us are going to have problems getting in and out of our driveways without landingtui the ditch. During the highway, operations power had to be disconnected on several occasions and there was damage to the water line which kept Vince Shannon, Don MacDonald and Bill Urquhart busy for several.days. As if they didn't have troubles enough, some rock work collapsed at one of the water front homes at Redrooffs, smashing and completely burying a considerable length of the water pipe. Recent guests at the Ralph North home have been Ralph's cousins Alan and Judy North with children John and Brenda from Red Deer, Alta. iohibs homes sold only from pads Attempting to make mobile home parks adhere to the requirements of residential subdivisions, the Sunshine Coast Regional Board decided Mar. 11 that mobile, home parks operators should not be allowed to sell mobile homes from their parks unless the mobile homes are installed on a pad. This was one of two points left unresolved between the regional board and the mobile home parks operators over By-law 90 which sets out the regulations for mobile parks. The other concern was the status of travel trailers which are already in mobile home parks. The board adopted the policy that travel trailers would be given the same status under the by-law as present non-conforming mobile homes that are already in mobile home parks. Nonconforming mobile homes are ones without CAS approval. These two points will be incorporated into the by-law before it is given third reading. Mobile Home Park operators will still have a chance to express their views on the amendments. Gibsons' regional board director Jim Metzler expressed the view operators should not be allowed to sell mobile homes because the parks become cluttered with trailers that are on display and for sale. "The operators should seek lots in commercial areas to sell mobile homes." Board chairman John McNevin said he " thought the board was on sound footing by treating mobile home parks as residential subdivision. He said a person would not be allowed to go into a residential subdivision and start selling mobile homes. He also said this requirement would exist for future mobile home parks because ones in present operation where trailers are sold could be classified as non-conforming use. Area E director Ed Johnson opposed restricting the sale of mobile homes to those already on proper lots. "I can see nothing wrong with it." Bowling alleys are made from hard maple.

These nets are then pulled in from the bottom, catching all fish in the nets' enclosure. It was a fisherman's dream in Barclay Sound two weeks ago as the revealing eye of Ray Philip's camera points out. Philips, a Pender Harbour fisherman was in the Sound and managed to catch 21 tons of herring in 24 hours. And at over $200 a ton, that's not bad fishing. The six week herring season which started March 1 is expected to render' an estimated 68,000 tons of herring, according to Environment Canada's Pacific region fishing service. Last year the catch was 59,000 tons. It is riot the meat of the herring that make them so valuable, but rather the fish eggs they carry. The fish are caught on their annual return to the West Coast to spawn on the beaches. The Fisheries Service regulates the catch each year to ensure enough herring are allowed to. spawn so that there will be ample returns the following year. The herring eggs or roe are sold profitably to Japan as Pacific caviar and this forms the economic basis of the catch. At the reduction plants the herring, once stripped of their roe, are made into fish meal and fish oil. The flesh becomes a press cake which is dried, ground into meal and sold as a protein supplement for chicken and animal feed. The oil is refined and marketed as stickwater which has many uses, including the manufacture of soap. The price of fish cake and stick- water varies according to the yearly tonnage taken by Peru. Peru imports much of the world supply of these commodities. So far this year there have been five boats and two men lost in the search for herring which involves hundreds of boats and fishermen. Before the season was finished last year some 14 men were lost. . As the herring fishing grounds close in southern areas, the herring fleet moves farther north towards the Queen Charlotte Islands. . At the moment Ray Philips and his 42 foot gillnetter are fishing in the Ocean Falls area. 'MV, e*�� if - ' m GILLNETS so full, fish float them to the surface.
