On the evening of Wednesday June 8, the 50 strong Selkirk Music Program students, under the direction of Sven Hyde, presented their year-end concert at McKim Theatre. They were joined by some of the parents in a reprise of a number from their April production of RENT, to much applause and laughter. It was evident that these kids (including Sven) love what they do. The exceptional quality of the Band, Choir and Jazz Choir gave much delight to all the parents and friends attending.

Break in at Mining RailwayC AROLYN GR ANT

Unknown persons broke into the downtown station of the Kimberley Underground Mining Railway sometime over Sunday night (June 12) railway volunteer Dan Jarrett told the Bulletin, and took between $400 and $500 in

cash.“We locked the doors on Sun-

day at 5:30 p.m.,” Jarrett said. “Des (McKay) went up to water the plants late Monday afternoon and saw that a window had been smashed. She opened the door and there was glass all over the place. The donation box was

empty, we’re not sure how much was in it.

“Des had to leave to call me because there was no power or phone. They had pulled out the Smart Meter and cut the lines to the phone and security cameras.”

F o r t h e to w n s m a nStep back in time to the

early 1900s of Cranbrook. Come join the fun at Miss Melodie’s School for Fine Young Ladies, 1905, as they throw open the doors to the public for Chautauqua.

This is a free event of en-tertainment and edification following the Sam Steele Days Parade on June 18, 1 – 4 p.m. Families are more than welcome!

Cranbrook Community Theatre is proud to present Chautauqua under the guise of a 1900s finishing school for the daughters of the fine families of Cran-brook and parts nearby. Imagine the daughters of the Galbraith, Baker and Fernie families in atten-dance learning all sorts of etiquette and cookery and other skills that fine house-wives of the day might need. Following Edwardian style and Chautauqua tradition, this Sam Steele Days heri-tage event offers history, culture, musical entertain-ment, short skits, magic, fortune telling and much, much more.

Performers range in ages from five years old to 95! 100 per cent local talent! It’s lots of fun!

Chautauquas and Tent

Chautauqua: Let the bells of edification ring

Chautauquas were popular from the 1880s until ap-proximately 1920. They were travelling shows pro-

viding entertainment and edification (education) to the towns of the West, the Wild West, the Gold Rush

and various other burgeon-ing small towns and villag-es. Primarily they brought news of politics, science

and discovery, new inven-tions and they brought an element of culture to the people scattered across the

country. For example, a Chautau-

qua might introduce people to the new invention of the telephone or give a report from the hallowed halls of Ottawa. An opera singer might perform, or a classical pianist. As Chautauquas travelled, they picked up and lost local talent, too. Perhaps a jig dancer or ac-cordionist would join in one small town but by the third or fourth town, bow out and return home to take in the crops or recommence teaching the school year.

Chautauqua is open to the public, free, from 1 – 4 pm on Saturday, June 18th . This is a drop in event… come for a short time or as long as you like. Bring the family. Refreshments are available for a small price. They include a slice of fresh berry pie or a glass of home-made, old-style sweet tea, thanks to our sponsors Nan-ny’s Cupboard & Teahouse and Auntie Barb’s Bakery. This event is co-sponsored by the Sam Steele Society, produced and directed by Melodie Hull. Chautauqua is a Cranbrook Community Theatre event.

The 2016 Selkirk Hockey students celebrated another great year by travelling to Alberta to get a taste of big city hockey programs. Along the way they stopped for a skate in Cochrane with ex Nitro and soon to be teacher Leo Keefer. Leo did a great job and the kids had a super time. A little mall time that evening with Tyler Van Steinburg leading the way outfitting himself for his upcoming grad. The following day the student spent a couple of hours training at Crash Conditioning along with the like of Jordan Eberle, Thomas Hickey, Brayden Coburn and Trail boy Craig Cunningham. Crash put the students and Mr. Loftsgard through their paces. The students left hopefully inspired and determined to outwork the city kids this off season. Had we made the trip a little later we would likely have run into locals Matt Wilkins and Jace Coyle who train at Crash in the summer. Thanks to Leo, Crash and of course 35 inch vertical jump Lofty for helping make the trip a huge success. - Jerry Bancks.

BA Black Top awarded Gerry

Sorensen contractC AROLYN GR ANT

Bulletin Editor

BA Black Top of Cranbrook has been awa rd e d t h e $3,683,120.35 contract for the repaving of Gerry Sorensen Way this summer. Council approved the contract Monday night and also approved a $736,624.07 (20%) contingency for the project.

The City received funding through the Strategic Priorities Fund through Federal Gas Tax Fund in British Columbia. A grant of $4.5 million towards the upgrade of GSW in-cluding sub-base, pav-ing, water, storm and sewer upgrades was re-ceived.

The work ongoing right now is not the contractor but the city, as work on the water main is underway. Manager of Operations

Mike Fox says that once the contractor takes over, a traffic manage-ment plan will be de-veloped. Traffic is being diverted up to Norton Avenue currently.

This project propos-es to reconstruct Gerry Sorenson Way in a way that will mitigate long-term problems and re-duce annual mainte-nance costs. Multiple layers of pavement would be ground and recycled, and subsur-face blue clay would be removed. The sub-sur-face material will be re-placed with geotechni-cal suitable gravel and a modern geo-grid syn-thetic subsurface. Un-derground utilities will be replaced or lined be-fore paving the road, this will ensure the quality of the road in future years, says a staff report.

The report also notes that when Gerry Sorensen Way was con-structed, no one took into account the under-ground water move-ment and the road was built on top of blue clay road subsurface mate-rial, which is notorious-ly poor for drainage and stability. As a re-sult, large potholes and cracks develop every spring.

City CAO Scott Som-merville says curious residents are asked to stay away from the con-struction site. The pub-lic will be kept in-formed on progress, he says.

The City received four bids on the project with BA Blacktop being the lowest by some $200,000.

Council noted that it was good to see a proj-ect this size go to a local

Festival has out-grown the site,

RDEK says

TRe vOR CR AwLeY

The RDEK denied a special license for a music festival in the South Country after the board of directors de-bated the proposed ex-pansion of it going from 500 people to potential-ly 2,000.

The application was postponed from May after initially being brought forward in Feb-ruary from Shawn Laf-leur and Darryl Stanat, the two organizers who are from Calgary.

Stan Doehle, the Area B director whose electoral area includes the proposed site on Lake Koocanusa, led opposition to the event and read out a letter de-scribing his concerns.

“FozzyFest has out-grown the site,” said Doehle. “1,500 to 2,000 are way too many peo-

ple for this area. Per-haps they need to move closer to a larger centre. The RCMP have identi-fied the issues in their risk assessment report of having the FozzyFest at Big Springs.

“A risk assessment was done this time and it talked about being in a remote location being a major problem and also drug seizures from people attending. The

risk assessment covers all the issues that we should respect the RCMP for the knowl-edge and expertise they have. At present, I have not received one call or letter in support of FozzyFest.”

Clara Reinhardt, the mayor of Radium Hot Springs, voiced her concerns over the lack of consultation with the Tobacco Plains Indian

Band, which would re-ceive revenue for the event, as well as the di-rection the board was taking over the course of the discussion.

“For this year, I feel pretty strongly that we should be letting it go, watching it. Everyone’s aware, the RCMP say they’re confiscating drugs—awesome,” Re-inhardt said.

Kimberley City Council received the third quarter policing report on Monday evening. The report is usually delivered in person by Cpl. Chris Newel of the Kimber-ley RCMP but he was unavailable this week. Council voted to re-ceive the report in his absence.

Road Safety

Road safety contin-ues to be an area of concern, we receive complaints about er-ratic drivers regularly. A large portion of them are on the high-way, but we do active-ly follow up on the calls.

If we don’t locate the offenders, we often follow up with a warning letter or a phone call, this alerts the registered owner there was a com-plaint.

Over the three months, we had 168 traffic contacts and eleven impaired driv-ers were removed from the road. This is higher than the previ-ous quarter by about 8%. Public Relations and Visibility. Over the course of the quarter, officers did 33 foot patrols through various ven-ues, bars and the Plat-zl. There was 15 school visits and 10 road checks. This does not include DARE instruction which we do at the Grade 5 level.

CRime ReduCtion

We monitor of-fenders in the com-munity that are under court ordered condi-tions. Over the past few months the num-ber of subjects on conditions has de-clined. We have one who has been charged twice in the last few weeks with Breach of Probation. By closely monitoring these sub-jects we hope to keep the crime rate low. Nineteen checks were conducted, down considerably for other quarters, but we have less subjects on or-ders and a number of them are do not typi-cally cause problems.

CRime ReduCtion unit

The two person Cranbrook/Kimberley Crime Reduction Unit has been very effec-tive and has no short-age of work. In the last quarter they con-ducted three drug trafficking investiga-tions that resulted in the arrest of six per-sons. All involved co-caine, one was a sig-nificant amount and likely had connec-tions in Kimberley. Family Violence We have been focusing on education in the middle school, this will take place in the fall.

CallS foR SeRviCe

The detachment was called to investi-gate/attend 406 calls for service in this quarter which is 40 (-10 %) less calls than the previous quarter and 18 more calls (+4%) from the same quarter in 2015. The winter quarter always has less calls from service than the other quarters. Our call vol-ume over the years is fairly consistent with periodic spikes. The increases are usually the result of one or two persons commit-ting a large number of offences in short peri-ods. The quicker we can get them in jail or out of the community the better. With the warmer weather we expect the calls for service to increase. Resources

We are almost full strength, something I have not seen since my arrival in Kimber-ley. We are short one person and we should see some movement on that in the near fu-ture. Some transfers have been discussed but there is nothing confirmed. We typi-cally function with one or two vacancies, something that has been endorsed by City Council.

Fozzy FestFor the Bulletin

Kimberley Gymnas-tics hosted 188 athletes at its annual season end Coconut Cup meet at McKim School May 28-29. Athletes came from Golden, Radium, Inver-mere, Cranbrook, Trail, Nelson, Castlegar, and Kimberley.

Local vendors from the community support-ed the event with a local vendor market in the lobby. International stu-dents volunteered to help with concession, and some worked at judges tables during the meet. Many local busi-nesses sponsored the event with cash dona-tions, gifts, and gift bas-kets. Club volunteers,

athletes, and staff pulled together to prepare food, plan and move the gym to McKim School, set up

Coconut Cup wrap upthe equipment on Fri-day, and do it all again in reverse to put the gym back together on Sunday – a tremendous show of dedication to the club and to the athletes.

The club will be fin-ishing up its Spring Ses-sion and getting ready for Summer Camps starting July 4th.

From page 1“Stand at the gate,

make sure you catch it all. But you know what, the RCMP confiscate drugs in every one of our communities. It’s out there.”

Don McCormick, the mayor of Kimber-ley, was concerned that even if the RDEK denied the special li-cense, 2,000 could just show up anyways and that RCMP resources would be stretched thin when they had only planned for 500 people.

“Only we don’t have the RCMP there for 2,000 people,” McCor-mick said. “We have them there for 500. We don’t have the garbage collection, we don’t have all the other ser-vices there to make this work. I think the situation we’re getting into with that, is going to be far worse than anything we have to deal with or the propo-nents have to deal with in managing the event.

“The way I see it, the only way this is going to come to a con-

clusion that says there’s no risk associated, is to ban the event, and the last time I looked, we were not banning peo-ple from coming into the East Kootenay. That would be a huge mis-take.”

“This party’s gonna happen no matter what,” Direct Tom Shy-pitka said. “I don’t think that’s going to be a sur-prise to anybody.”

Gerry Taft, the mayor of Invermere, said the organizers have fol-lowed the rules and worked with the RDEK every step along the way of getting permis-sion to hold the festival, which is going to hap-pen regardless of how the board votes.

“Here, we have a final decision,” Taft said. “They either have per-mission to have a 500-person party. They’re asking for per-mission to make that a little bit bigger. We’re basically going to de-cide if we’re going to push them into being rule-breakers or rule-followers.”

G ordie Howe had completed his eighth season as a Detroit Red Wing before I was born. It would

be another 10 years before he became a hero to me, an idol whose glow never dimmed until he died, coincidentally, on my birthday.

The first thing that struck me when I heard the news, after a twinge of sadness, was the timing of his death and that of Muhammad Ali. Howe and Ali were among the pan-theon of sports giants in my early years. Hockey was the sport in our home, and with my dad and I the only males, we rarely missed Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday nights and, later, the Wednes-day NHL games that were telecast, but starting well into the first period to accom-modate the evening news.

For some inexplicable reason, dad had an interest in boxing, so I followed along, at first sharing his disgust for the upstart Cas-sius Clay cum Muhammad Ali. Braggarts in sport were not to be tolerated and neither were acts of non-conservatism. We took the boxer’s refusal to honour his draft card as a profound act of cowardice and disre-spect. Eventually I would come around to admire his skill and artistry, and agree with some of his politics. My father did not.

There was no need to make any shift in how I felt about Gordie Howe. We bled Maple Leaf blue blood, but never was a bad word spoken about Howe, the ulti-mate hockey player. Humble and remark-ably articulate despite his lack of educa-tion, he was simply not an easy man to dislike, even when he led his team to victo-

ry over our beloved Leafs.A little story of being a young hockey

fan has always stayed with me. My dad and I occasionally took in Western Hockey League games in the Stampede Corral to watch the hometown Stampeders play. I was probably nine years old when I took my new autograph book to a game and

rushed down to get the signature of my then-fa-vourite Stampeder, Lou Jankowski. He had a short, marginally success-ful NHL career in the 1950s, but in the WHL in the early 1960s he was a dominant scorer. Along

with a few other kids, I lined up to get his autograph as players came off the ice at the end of the game. Jankowski brushed passed me, ignoring my proffered book and pen. My face must have showed my disappointment, because the team’s cap-tain, Norm Johnson, stopped and asked if I would like him to sign my book. He be-came my favourite player.

A year later, shortly after I turned 10, Gordie Howe was the Calgary Stampede parade marshal and I was with my dad among the throngs lining the route. Auto-graph book in hand, I ran out to the con-vertible that Howe was sitting atop. He was signing autographs as fast as he could, and I was one of the lucky kids who came away with the treasured, and very legible, signa-ture.

That act of kindness wasn’t enough to turn me into a Red Wing fan, but it made Gordie a hero in my eyes. I followed his career with enthusiasm and thrilled when he returned to the game when the World

Hockey Association was formed. It took me a year or two before I could finally admit that the young Bobby Orr might possibly be the better player.

Gordie Howe was no saint on the ice, as countless players who took one of those famed elbows to the chin would attest. But he was a brilliant ambassador for the game he loved. As I read through articles follow-ing his death last week, I found myself smiling at a story about a young fan being rebuffed in his request of an autograph by goalie Terry Sawchuck. Howe threatened to break his arms and legs if he didn’t sign the kid’s book, and the kid got the signa-ture he was looking for. That kid would grow up and become Gordie’s closest friend.

I think that we have lost a lot in not real-ly having sports heroes as kids. And I am talking about athletes who understood the good they can do with their talents. For Gordie Howe, it was about being gracious and thoughtful and genuinely appreciative of what the sport he loved gave him, even if his employers took advantage of his naive-ty, even beyond the early years. Ali risked his entire career to stand up against a war he believed to be wrong, and eventually his detractors came around to understand the meaning of courage to bump up against prevailing thought.

I have rarely had any desire to meet fa-mous people, understanding that public and private personas can be entirely differ-ent. But there are none I would have liked to have had a beer with more than Gordie Howe.

Without a host site for its 2016 U16C Provincial Championship, Softball BC was desperate.

Then the Cranbrook Heat stepped to the plate.

A year after not even having a U16 girls soft-ball team, Cranbrook will welcome the rest of British Columbia for a 16-team provincial tour-nament, scheduled for July 1 to 3 at the Kins-men Quad Ballparks.

“It’s so awesome, the girls are so excited be-cause they get to play at home,” said Teralie Mc-Cormack, tournament coordinator for the U16C Provincial Champion-

ship, Tuesday morning. “The girls are

pumped. They’re so ex-cited.”

With Cranbrook tucked in the southeast corner of the province, there is no shortage of well-documented chal-

lenges when it comes to competitive, high-end minor sports, especially minor girls softball.

To this point in 2016, the nearest competition has required the Heat to travel to Red Deer and Kelowna, with the only available local house-league competition

coming in the form of the U14 squad.

That isn’t exactly fair to the U14s and certain-ly does not provide ample challenge for the older and more physi-cally mature U16 crew.

“Because we live so far away from every-thing, [the provincial championship] is one of the tournaments we count on,” said McCor-mack, whose daughter Brea pitches for the Heat.

“We applied the first week of April. We phoned our district rep-resentative… She told us Softball BC was desper-ate. They don’t want to have to cancel it.”

Typically, decisions on host sites are made well in advance of pro-vincial tournaments of this size. As recently as March, Softball BC was still without a host site for its U16C Provincial Softball Championship, leaving very little time to not only drum up a host but allow fair time for proper organization and preparation in order to produce a quality event.

Headed up by Mc-Cormack, the Heat’s bid to host the provincial tournament was promptly accepted by Softball BC. In quick order, the provincial governing body for soft-ball also tossed a great deal of financial support behind the event in order to help get it off the ground.

“It’s kind of been a gongshow from there,”

McCormack said with a laugh. “Normally you apply for this bid in Oc-tober of the previous year. We’ve been kind of scrambling because there are certain things under Softball BC regu-lations that we have to perform as hosts of this tournament.”

Tournaments hosts are required to provide facilities for, obviously,

game play, but also for events such as pre-tour-nament coaches meet-ings and athlete meals. Additionally, it is expect-ed that hosts will provide all participants with commemorative t-shirts, an extracurricular group activity outside of tour-nament play for athletes (skills competition, home run derby, relay competition, scavenger

hunt, etc.) and have printed programs on hand for spectators.

And that is just to list a few of the extensive requirements, of which each item can require extensive planning, re-sources and volunteer hours to pull together.

Softball BC has of-fered to cover the costs of umpires and equipment such as softballs for the

weekend, an expense typically incurred by the host. The City of Cran-brook has provided use of the fields at Kinsmen Quad Ballparks as a part of the Heat’s minor ball registration and is on board to provide support in terms of facility staff.

On May 15, 2016, we raised over

The Cranbrook U16 Heat burned through round-robin action in Red Deer this past weekend, going 3-1 en route to claiming the tournament championship by defeating the host Red Deer squad by a 12-2 margin. During round-robin play, pitcher Brea McCormack tossed a no-hitter, striking out 11 batters while only walking two. Having struck success away from home, the Heat are looking forward to hosting the province when they welcome teams for the 2016 Softball BC U16C Championship from July 1 to 3 at the Kinsmen Quad Ballparks in Cranbrook. The Heat are: back row (L to R): Coach Barry McCormack, Jayden Perpelitz, Sarah Schieman, Chayne Plaza, Brea McCormack, Ryleigh Pocha, Coach Niki Giesbrecht; front row (L to R): Georgia Wurzer, Victoria Pinchak, Ali Giesbrecht, Madison Amy, Skylar Bell.

For The TownsmanThe KEYSA Rovers

attended the Lethbridge Chinook Cup this past weekend, with the U-12 Girls winning three out of four matches, earning bronze medals for their tournament play.

“We are very proud of how the girls played throughout the week-end,” said Jason Wheel-don, head coach of the U-12 Girls. “They dug in

hard against teams that were bigger and pulled some great victories in heavily matched com-petition play.”

The U-12 girls played against Calgary MUSC in their first match and played a defensive game, shutting out the opposi-tion by a 2-0 final score.

The second match was against the Calgary WHU HEAT — a great even-strength game

throughout the first half with a score of 2-2. The second half saw the Heat catch a lucky opportuni-ty with two minutes left in the game to pull ahead for the 3-2 victory.

The Rovers played the Lethbridge Torna-does on Sunday morn-ing, claiming an easy victory to advance to the bronze medal game.

The bronze medal game was the most excit-

ing for spectators as the Rovers played against Coaldale, Alta. The first half the Rovers were down 2-1. In the begin-ning of the second half, the Rovers changed the face of the game. After tying the game, only mere minutes elapsed before KEYSA struck again to take a 3-2 lead. But Coaldale answered the bell, tying the game 3-3 shortly after.

Play continued and both teams scored again, moving the score to 4-4. Only minutes left to play with fast action on the field by both teams and no one could break the tie. Regulation time ended and the game went to a shootout — the first for this young team and they held to true form and success-fully won the shootout.

“From the City’s per-spective, we’re always happy when any of our sport groups or service clubs come together and bring activities to our community,” said Chris New, director of leisure services for the City of Cranbrook, on Tuesday.

“Anytime the com-munity initiates these type of projects, we cer-tainly try to support them as best we can.

“We hope a lot of these people, it’s their first time [visiting Cran-brook], they’re coming here and discovering us. So they’re seeing the beautiful setting we have, the beautiful city we have and we hope those folks end up being future tourists, maybe future residents. It’s just another opportunity to showcase everything we have here.”

Bridge Interiors and Rick’s Fine Meats & Sau-sage have combined forces to host a car wash and barbecue fundrais-er (June 25, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Bridge Interiors) for the event. Bridge In-terior is also providing use of its outdoor tents for the course of the tournament.

The Cranbrook Mixed Slo-Pitch Associ-ation donated the use of its field maintenance equipment, which typi-cally comes with an as-sociated rental fee.

That’s just to name a few of the local groups throwing support be-hind the event, with plenty of others in line to pitch in over the com-ing weeks.

“The community support has been unreal considering how quick-

ly we’ve had to put this together,” McCormack said. “It’s been wonder-ful.”

When 16 teams final-ly arrive for the provin-cial championship in July, they will go head-to-head in a round-rob-in tournament format, with each team guaran-teed a minimum of four games. Playoff structure is still to be determined.

Games are tentatively scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. on Friday, July 1, and run all day at the Kinsmen Quad Ball-parks. Saturday, July 2, round-robin action will resume at 8 a.m., after which there will be a break as playoff sched-ules are determined.

Playoff competition will start the afternoon of July 2, with July 3 serving as champion-

ship Sunday. While the event is

coming together in lightning-quick fashion, there is still plenty to be done between now and July 1.

Qualifier playdowns are still on-going throughout the prov-ince, with six teams hav-ing registered as of print deadline Tuesday.

The Heat are still in need of volunteers for the tournament, partic-ularly when it comes to scorekeeping and field maintenance. Anyone interested in volunteer-ing their services or time is encouraged to contact McCormack via email (bbat@shaw.ca) or phone (778-517-4527).

The Cranbrook Heat won the 2013 U16C Pro-vincial Championship, which was hosted in Salmo.

1904Talk of new opera

house ... There is some talk of a company being formed to build a new opera house in Cran-brook. A building of this kind is badly needed in this town, as the growth of the place the past two or three years has ren-dered the present hall too small for the large crowds that generally congregate, And with a more modern hall it will be possible to secure a better class of entertain-ments than are coming to the town now. The hall that has been in use since the town started has answered the pur-pose in the past, and Messrs. Shelton and Clapp are doing all in their power to make up for the deficiency by extra exertion to accom-modate the public, but they cannot perform the impossible.

Lawn social … The Ladies Aid of the Meth-odist church will hold a lawn party, at the resi-

dence of W. T. Reid, on Wednesday June 22, at 8 o’clock. Admission 10 cents; strawberries and cake 20 cents; ice cream and cake 15 Cents. All are cordially invited.

Great weather … The banana weather has taken full possession of this district and the air is as balmy as can be found beneath the skies of Italy. Children are happy, adults are con-tent and vegetation is prolific in its growth. No-where on the face of this glorious earth, can there be found a better, cli-mate than that of the ba-nana belt of South East Kootenay.

A first ciass restau-rant ... Charles Estes has fitted up a restaurant on Armstrong avenue that is as neat and complete in all its equipment as could be found in any city. The short order bill of fare is a most elabo-rate one, including as it does all the best things that the market affords in season. His dining room

and kitchen are perfect in detail, while all his meats are taken care of in a specially prepared refrigerator The display window is changed twice a day and already the appetizing display of fruits, vegetables and choice cuts have caused considerable favorable comment. A restaurant like this, operated on the right lines, will prove a paying proposition in Cranbrook. And it is Mr. Estes’ intention to serve short orders and six o’clock dinners, the latter to be given for 50 cents each. It will be possible for anyone to have a meal sent out at any time to their room or their home. Mr. Estes will also cater for parties, dances, etc.

Lockup needed … Some miscreant with devilish heart and mal-ice in his mind cut and slashed the side of a valuable cow belonging to Fred Dumont one day recently. The individual who would be guilty of such a dastardly act should be given a term in the bastille that would serve as a warning for a long time to come.

1905A favorite piano ... J.

G. Whiteacre, western manager or the Mason & Risch piano, and C. W. Jones general agent, have been in town the

Four months at Nel-son ... Frederick Beck was conducted to Nel-son on Monday by Con-stable Morris to the gov-ernment house of soli-tude and isolation, where he will have ample time to ponder on the manly, upright, strenuous life, and to let his mind form good res-olutions to guide his fu-ture behavior. Frederick was foolish enough to steal a coat from W. D. Hill’s residence last week, was promptly locked up by R. S. Baron, and after a short trial sentenced to spend four months in the Nelson gaol by Magistrate Arm-strong.

Many weddings … Cranbrook is ably assist-ing June in maintaining her reputation as the banner month for wed-dings. Already half a dozen couples have been mixed up in the matrimonial meshes, and Dame Rumor has others slated to depart from the state of single blessedness.

Get control … We daily hear remarks about young lads in this place who need the strong curb. It is quite true, they need it badly. And there are a few girls along in their teens who follow their own sweet will to no good ultimate end upon whom the hand of parental restriction should fall heavily.

Seen speeding … A man with a jag, a team of horses and an ambition to make the Ringling chariot race look like a dog-cart procession, treated the inhabitants of lower Baker street to a few minutes of thrilling runaway excitement Sunday evening. By a miracle no serious injury resulted.

On the hot seat … Sunday evening, while Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Morris were entertaining a few friends, the lounge upon which R. S. Baron was sitting was suddenly no-ticed to be in flames. With difficulty it was car-ried out of the house, and with the exception of a table cover being burned little further damage was done.

Want to play ball ... The barbers of Cran-brook are possessed with the idea that they are ball players and they ask the Herald to issue a challenge to the clerks, to meet in battle array within the next few days. The barbers will have a strong pull, but the clerks weigh up pretty well.

Munroe and the Mar-coni experts on Koote-nay Lake was an unqual-ified success. The launch Pioneer was chartered for the day and equipped with the necessary appa-ratus. A land station was established at the Nelson boat club house, and continuous communi-cation was maintained throughout several hours between the ship and the shore. One very entertaining experiment was tried which resulted in the Pioneer commu-nicating directly with Rossland. When the messages were coming in from the launch the central telephone office in Rossland was called up on the telephone at the club house and by this means the tick of the receiver was distinctly heard in Rossland and the message taken down by an operator.

Tenders wanted … Up to noon on Friday, June 23rd, 1905, by the undersigned for moving the present Presbyterian Church building to the rear of the lot. Also for the construction of a new church building ac-cording to plans and specifications, to be seen at Mr. McCallum’s hard-ware store. Lowest or any tender not necessar-ily accepted. J. G.

Dear Annie: I’ve seen several doctors re-cently, and each time I noticed that they gave a lot of information so quickly that I could not absorb it all, nor could I remember it entirely. I also received written instructions after a recent surgery, but those weren’t partic-ularly good, either. Part of the instructions included a form that was filled out by the doctor, whose handwriting I had difficulty reading. Ideally, all information would be typed up and handed to the patient. Granted, it takes time for someone to do this, but it’s the pa-tients’ health we are dealing with. If the doc-tor refuses to provide this, I suggest bringing a voice recorder. Turn it on when you’re told “the doctor will see you shortly,” and make sure the doctor speaks clearly. Ask them to repeat anything if you don’t think it came across. Ask the doctor to explain medical terms that are used routinely, but that you may not understand. Are there any legal issues involved in doing this? Of course, doctors should be informed that they are being recorded. -- Get It Right Dear Get: If you are recording the doctor’s instructions for your personal and private use, there should be no objection -- legal or otherwise. But most doctors have comput-erized systems, and in many instances, test results and instructions can be sent to pa-tients via email. Ask your doctor about this. Hospitals also should be handing you typed post-surgical instructions. Of course, it is important to read through everything and to call your doctor if you do not understand something. Too many patients are reluctant to phone or email their doctor, because they don’t want to be a nuisance. But it is import-ant to be proactive about your health care. Doctors don’t want you to misinterpret their instructions, either. Dear Annie: I don’t enjoy going to movies any longer. Why? Because anything rated PG-13 and up is usually laced with gross profanity. I simply don’t enjoy listening to this kind of language. I recently agreed to accompany my hus-band to a movie that received good reviews and starred two well-known actors. When I left the theater, I was convinced that the writers of this movie must have not gone further than the fourth grade. Nearly every sentence had the f-word. Are these writers so limited in their knowledge of our lan-guage and vocabulary? All of that profanity distracted from what could have been an in-teresting movie. We have become desensitized to all the profanity around us. I’d love to see a sophis-ticated film for adults that doesn’t offend my ears. Am I the only one who feels this way? -- No Movies for Me Dear No: We can assure you that others find the vulgar language (not to mention the gratuitous violence and sex) equally objec-tionable. There are movies that do not pan-der to the lowest common denominator. You can look online for various websites that list clean-language films, some of which may also be sophisticated adult films.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You will find others to be in a generous mood in the morning. As a result, you might choose to move forward with a different set of plans for the day. If you can’t make an adjustment, just know that there is something better waiting for you. Tonight: Be with a favorite person.TAURUS (April 20-May 20)Reach out to a friend whom you care a lot about. You could be pleasantly surprised by this person’s mood. You’ll discover how easygoing he or she can be. Maintain a sense of humor when dealing with a mix-up involving a close friend. Tonight: Only where you want to be.GEMINI (May 21-June 20)Your playfulness adds to your charm. Others enjoy this child-like quality in you and often can’t get enough of it. Keep your sense of humor when being teased. Every once in a while, someone hits too close to home. Tonight: Catch up on what you

didn’t do the past few days.CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might want to consider your options a little more carefully than you have in the recent past. Your immense creativity and resourceful imagination are at their peak. As a result, you can come up with many different ways to the same end. Tonight: Once more, let your mind wan-der.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be in a position where you want to view a situation from a different perspective. Be open to someone’s feedback. Up until now, you might have closed this person off. You will need some time to reflect on what is happening around you. Tonight: Happiest close to home.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might try to explain where you are coming from, but others will be so in their own heads that they will barely hear you. Know that some of today’s conversa-tions will need to be repeated. You also could get an opportu-nity to change your mind later. Tonight: Be open.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)You could be more in tune with a situation than you originally thought possible. You are likely to be ecstatic on some level and also somewhat concerned. Trust that you will know how to han-dle balancing your different feel-ings. Tonight: Let go of a money issue, at least for now.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)You might feel as if you are walk-ing through a maze, unsure of what is happening. Trust in your abilities, and everything will work as it should. You could be wary of becoming too content. Know that your innate cynicism might be emerging. Tonight: Go for what you want.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You are likely to give 100 percent effort to what you want to have happen, but it still might not play out the way you would like it to. Make it OK if events aren’t falling into place as hoped; there could be a very good reason. To-night: Take a night for yourself.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)You could be in a wonderful place, as you have been able to

detach from what makes you up-set. You have the ability to move past many problems. If you have resisted working through these issues, know that the time has come to deal with them. To-night: Hang out with a friend.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out to those whom you know you work well with. The interaction could be very pow-erful and creative. Consider your options before you launch into action. Understanding evolves to a new level because of your commitment to excellence. To-night: Call the shots.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your detachment could be ex-traordinary yet difficult for some people to handle at times. When you show up being as emotional and sensitive as you presently are, others tend to be reactive. They do not always understand this behavior. Tonight: Make an important call.BORN TODAYActress Helen Hunt (1963), rapper Ice Cube (1969), singer/songwriter Waylon Jennings (1937)

Spring flooding along rivers in B.C. now ap-pears unlikely, but there’s a growing threat that much of the province may be in for another dan-gerously dry summer.

That’s the indication from the latest measure-ments posted by B.C.’s River Forecast Centre.

As of June 1, B.C.’s alpine snowpacks were at 23 per cent of normal for that time of year – a record low.

A warmer than normal May caused the snow-pack to melt off very rapidly.

“Current snow conditions are more typical of late June or early July,” the forecast centre’s latest bulletin said, resulting in many rivers reaching flow conditions that are three to four weeks ahead of usual.

“Most rivers have likely experienced their peak levels for the year, unless an extreme rainfall event occurs in June or early July,” the bulletin said.

Preliminary data for the Fraser River at Hope shows the river flow peaked at 6,130 cubic metres per second on May 8.

That date is the earliest on record that the lower Fraser has peaked and it’s also the second lowest peak flow on record. Normally the Fraser peaks in mid-June.

Fishery biologists have already sounded a warning that low streamflow conditions could create particularly challenging water conditions for salmon returning to spawn.

June has so far seen cooler temperatures and moderate rainfall.

The forecast centre says below normal stream flows are likely across B.C. this summer if there’s near-normal precipitation for the rest of the spring and summer.

Last year’s severe drought triggered extreme water sprinkling restrictions in the Lower Main-land, as well as angling closures and heightened risk of forest fires across much of the province.

Features

Flood risk fades, dry summer more

likely in B.C.

It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family announces the passing of Debbie (Bitsy) Holmes (nee Pickering). Debbie passed away peacefully in her sleep the morning of May 22, 2016 at the Central Okanagan Hospice House with her loving husband Allan by her side. Debbie fought a courageous battle with cancer and was taken from us far too young, at the age of 59.

Debbie was born in Weyburn, Saskatchewan on March 22, 1957 before making British Columbia her home in 1971.

Debbie is predeceased by her father Maurice Pickering and her brother Kim Pickering. She leaves behind her loving, devoted husband and soulmate Allan (Alvin) Holmes, her mother Gloria Pickering, her best friend and sister Cathy (John) and her brother Kevin, as well as many nieces and nephews.

She was a caring and loving mom and will be sorely missed by her three children Brett, Nicole and Scott. Her grandson Asher was the light of her life, her little Asherman. She will also be missed by her beloved, loyal Newfoundlander Jake.

Debbie was an excellent barber and had many loyal clients whom she thought of more as friends. Deb loved the simple things in life like spending time outdoors camping, fi shing and puttering in her beautiful garden. We will miss her warm smile, little giggle, big heart and her easy-going nature.

We would like to thank all the wonderful and caring doctors, nurses and staff at the Southern Interior Cancer Centre, as well as the Central Okanagan Hospice House. A special thank you to Dr. Diana Imrie, whom Debbie thought of more like a girlfriend than her family physician.

Debbie’s ashes will be taken to Eager Hill in Cranbrook where she will be reunit-ed with her father and brother. Here she will be enjoying the view of the three mountain ranges with a glass of white wine and a cigarette in her hand listening to Pearl Jam. We’re going to miss ya kiddo!

As per Deb’s wishes, there will not be a service, but in lieu of fl owers please send any donations to the Central Okanagan Hospice House, 2035 Ethel Street, Kelowna, B.C., V1Y 2Z6.

LOS ANGELES — Generations of aspiring guitarists have tried to copy the riff from Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven.”

Starting on Tuesday, a Los Angeles court will try to decide whether the members of Led Zeppelin themselves ripped off the riff.

The band’s guitarist Jimmy Page and singer Robert Plant are named as defendants in the lawsuit brought by the trustee of guitarist Randy Wolfe from the band Spirit. Attorneys for the trustee contend that 1971’s “Stairway to Heaven” copies music from the Spirit song “Taurus,” which Wolfe wrote in either 1966 or 1967. Wolfe died in 1997, drowning while saving his son in Hawaii.

Page, Plant and their bandmate John Paul Jones are all expected to testify at the trial, though Jones has been dis-missed as a defendant in the case.

Led Zeppelin and Spirit performed at some concerts and festi-vals around the same time, but not on the same stage.

U.S District Judge R. Gary Klausner ruled in April that evidence pre-sented in hearings made a credible case that Led Zeppelin may have heard “Taurus” per-formed before their song was created.

Francis Alexander Malofiy, attorney for Wolfe’s trustee Michael Skidmore, said while many copyright cases are an uphill battle, Klausner’s ruling brings his client one step closer to getting Wolfe credit for helping create one of the most recognizable song introductions in rock history.

Led Zeppelin’s attor-neys argued that both “Stairway to Heaven” and “Taurus” use notes and combinations that have been circulating in music for centuries.

The song has gener-ated hundreds of mil-lions of dollars over the

Randy Wolfeyears. Wolfe’s attorneys overcame stat-ute-of-limitations hur-dles to sue over “Stair-way to Heaven” because the song was remastered and re-released in 2014.

The lawsuit also came after a high-profile victory last year when a federal jury found that Robin Thicke and Phar-rell Williams had copied a Marvin Gaye song to create their 2013 hit, “Blurred Lines” and awarded Gaye’s children $7.4 million.

A judge trimmed the award, and the verdict is under appeal, but the decision appears to have prompted a surge in copyright-infringe-ment filings.

The same attorney who represented Gaye’s family filed another suit last week in Los Angeles saying Ed Sheeran’s 2014 song “Photograph” is too similar to the 2009 song “Amazing” written by Martin Harrington and Thomas Leonard.

B L AC K P R E S SB.C. employment

and housing starts dipped in May, but job growth continues to lead the country so far in 2016.

The latest Statistics Canada figures show employment in B.C.

declined by 8,400 peo-ple in May, reversing most of a surge in hir-ing in April. Even with the drop, employment was three per cent higher than at the same time last year.

Compared to 2015, employment was up

16.5 per cent in re-source extraction, 14 per cent in public ad-ministration and 6.1 per cent in trade. For the first five months of this year, full-time em-ployment was up 2.7 per cent and part-time employment rose by

6.3 per cent.In its weekly eco-

nomic briefing, Central 1 Credit Union noted that employment gains are largely confined to Metro Vancouver. Em-ployment is down 0.4 per cent from a year ago in the remainder of

the province.Urban B.C. housing

starts, which Central 1 calls “a pillar of eco-nomic growth this year,” were up 45 per cent through April, to 16,320 units.

About 80 per cent of the overall growth in

housing starts was in Metro Vancouver, but starts more than dou-bled in the Abbots-ford-Mission and Kelowna census metro-politan areas and near-ly doubled in the Prince George census area.

“We forecast full-

year housing starts (in-cluding rural areas) to reach 38,200 units this year, marking a 21 per cent increase from 2015,” Central 1 senior economist Bryan Yu said.
