Residents tell council to stop Sunday construction or reduce property taxes

Frank Woodward of 4102 Skoglund St. presented a petition signed by nine Skoglund St. residents to Terrace council Monday night complaining about an unreasonable amount of noise being created by Ker- modei Construction at the Ter- raceview Lodge extended care construction site.

by Ted Straehan

Woodward told council that since the project began, Ker- modei had worked "without exception" seven days a week

from 7:30 a.rn. to 8:30 p.m. "We are not averse to anyone working 'reasonable hours ' ," he said, "but Sunday is the one day when most of us want to rest and enjoy a tittle bit of peace and quiet."

He said Skoglund residents were being "forced to listen to several workers banging, drill- ing, sawing, driving cats, front end loaders, and trucks that seem to rattle all day". When he was finished he told council, "We don't mind normal hours but if this continues on the Sab-

bath and doesn't stop - - we want a 50 percent reduction on our property taxes." He added, " I f there's any problem, let me know and I'll get a bigger petition. And if there's still a pi'o- blem I'll get a bigger one still."

During council's discussion on the matter, alderman Bob Jackman asked c l e rk / ad - ministrator Bob Hallsor if Ker- modei wasn't in violation of the city's noise bylaws. Hallsor replied to this by saying, " I f they're working Sundays, yes." He explained that the bylaw per-

mitted construction work to be carried on, at a reasonable noise level, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day except Sunday.

Council, however, voted to send the matter to committee so they could discuss the matter with Terraceview employees and Terrace Health Care Society representatives. If not dealt with by city administration or the Health Care Society, the committee's recommendation will be presented at the Sept. 12 meeting for action.

Un ion to. try again

TERRACE - - After being defeated by a tie vote last Thurs- day, the General Workers' Union was granted the right yes- terday by the Industrial Rela- tions Council (IRC) to make another attempt to organize Ker- modei Construction workers at their Terraceview Lodge work- site.

On Monday, Paul Johnston, business manager for the Kitimat-Terrace District Labor Council, said the failed certification bid left Kermodei Construc- tion in a situation where they could be organized by another union, and the General Work- ers' Union couldn't reapply for certification for 90 days. "This clears a major obstacle out of the way," he said.

Section 49 of the Industrial Relations Act (the Labour Rela- tions Act prior to Bill 19) however, makes an exception to the 90 day rule if the employer makes a request to the IRC. When asked to explain this section of the act, Roger Davis of the Employment Standards Branch in Terrace said that under Section 49 it was at the board's discretion to determine if the union was interfering with the employer, and if they felt there is no harassment could grant the union the right to reapply.

This was the scone on Lakolse Ave. Sunday at the beginning of the Skeena River Challenge bicycle race to Prince Rupert. The winner was Prince Rupert resident Ralph Andreeson, and Terrace's Mike Christensen topped local entries with a fourth place finish.

Dumpsters torched

Fire chief warns of arsonists Intentionally set in commer-

cial trash containers fires are a threat to public safety, and after four incidents in the last two weeks Terrace fire chief Cliff Best advises local merchants to keep dumpsters a safe distance from buildings. In addition, he asks that anyone seeing an individual or group "hanging around" commercial dumpsters to phone the fire department at 638-8121.

According to Best, the problem began on Aug. 9 when a fire was reported behind Wool- worth's. He says that when fire- men arrived they discovered the contents of an uncovered 8 by 8 by 30 foot dumpster were on fire and the flames were close to ig-

niting the tar roof of the Terrace Shopping Centre.

Best says that after the blaze was doused, Riverside Disposal, the owner of the dumpster, was called in to remove the container, and even though they were escorted to the city limits by the fire department the contents were again on fire by the time Riverside reached the Thornhill garbage dump.

He says that other than some smoke entering the building there was no damage to Wool- worth's, but he added that if the fire had not been reported promptly it could have resulted in a major loss. Best says that after the fire, the large uncovered dumpster was replaced with

~ "~!i•!:i i•~: ~ i! ~

! ii i !iiiiii iiii i!ili!ii!! ii il i i ill

several smaller covered containers in order to minimize the danger of a major fire.

Since that time, Best says the fire department has been called to fires at Skeena Junior Secon-

dary School, where three dumpsters and two 45 gallon trash barrels had been lit at the same time on Aug. 15 and Aug. 21. He says another incident occurred at Uplands Elementary on Aug. 16.

100.mile bike race draws 50 entrants • i i

Prince Rupert's Ralph Andreeson won Sunday's second annual Skeena River Challenge bicycle race from Terrace to Pdnce Rupert. Times for all riders will be released later today. Second place for the 100-mile jaunt went to Wes Smith of Kitimat, with Carl Kline of Ketehikan, Alaska in third and Mike Christensen of Terrace fourth. More than 50 riders competed Sunday, but a number failed to finish due to fiat fires. There were no injuries.

Kalum River rapids claim two lives

On Aug. 16, at 4:15 p.m., four Terrace youths entered Kalum Canyon with the inten- tion of tackling the rapids. Equipped with only a large inner tube, the four entered the river and disaster struck almost immediately. One youth was pulled under by the curent, and shortly after the adventure fell apart when the remaining three lost their grip and fell into the river. Daryl Bjorgaard, 21, and Jasmin Reed, 15, found their way to shore, but Dwayne Turner, 22, and Shelley Ann Dilley, 15, are missing and presumed to have drowned.

According to .Search and Rescue coordinator Ray Tank, Bjorgaard went ashore on the west side of the river and made his way to a house, where he phoned the RCMP to report the accident. Tank says the RCMP requested the radio operator ~t the airport to ask any air traffic in the immediate area to make a quick search of the canyon, and

as a result Ian Swan of Northern Mountain Helicopters spotted Reed on the east bank of the river and directed RCMP to her location.

At the same time, says Tank, the RCMP launched a river search for Turner and Dilley and after a short time called in volunteers from Terrace Search and Rescue. Tank says they sear- ched both river banks as well as all access routes and trails in the area but were unable to find any trace of the missing youths.

According to Tank, none of the youths were wearing life jackets and none had told anyone of their intentions or where they were going. If they had, he says, they may have been talked out of trying the rapids in the first place. He warns that Kitselas Canyon and the Copper River both contain dangerous rapids but describes Kalum Canyon as "the worst water in the area".

Check voters' list Last year's municipal

voters' list is still valid, and residents who have not had errors corrected or new residents who have not had their names added to the list, may have problems at the polls in November. City administrator Bob Hailsor says the list is open for revision until Aug. 31, and a revised list will be posted at various locations in the city about mid-September.

He advised everyone to check the revised list for ac- curacy, and if any errors or omissions are found they can be corrected at a Court of Revision which will be hend at city hall on Oct. 3.

In order to register, a resident must be 19 years old or older and must be a Canadian citizen living in Canada for 12 months, in the province for six months and in the municipality for three months prior to the election.

Planning and Public Works

TERRACE - - City council has followed the recommendations of the Finance Committee and given Kermode Friendship Cen- tre and the Calvin Christian School Society (Centennial Christian School) 1989 property tax exemptions. At the same time, they denied a request for an exemption from the Terrace Oddfellows and Rebekahs Association and removed the now-vacant Community Ser- vices building from the tax exemption bylaw.

The committee recommended the inclusion of the Kermode Centre after receiving a request which stated that they had not received a much-needed grant increase from the Secretary of State. The request stated that the $3,000 in annual property taxes would be better spent on funding some of the center's activities. The committee agreed that the center could use the funds, and if an exemption was granted the center had been told by the Secretary of State that they would be allowed to keep the money.

The tax exemption bylaw was given third reading Monday night and will be finally adopted at a special meeting of council next Monday, two days before the Aug. 31 deadline set by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs..-

He explained that under the act, Kermodei's request to the IRC was a private matter between company and the General Workers' Union. Bruce Toms of Kermodei Construction was un- available for comment prior to press time.

Paul Johnston of the Kitimat- Terrace Labour Council refers

to the General Workers' Union as a "black mark on the trade union movement" and calls the move illegal "collusion" between the company and the union. He says that by doing this, Kermodei is only keeping trade unions off the site.

Johnston claimed Kermodei Cons t ruc t ion has a l ready brought in additional employees from Vancouver to work on the Smithers Airport job, and he says he expects that they will be transferred to the Terraceview job prior to the next vote, which he says will be taken on Tues- day.

Tax blow to day cares Operating a day care service

as a business is no way to make a living, according to Teresa Col- ton, the supervisor of the Ter- race Day Care Centre, and Joanne Jones, who owns and operates the Sunshine Family Day Care Centre. Colton says that Terrace Day Cure's property taxes nearly doubled from $900 (residential) to $1,800 (business) this spring. Because the operation was just scraping by as it was, they asked the city for a tax exemption.

Jones tells a similar story: her property taxes rose from $700 ( r e s iden t i a l ) to $1,000 (business), and she says she was only making enough to cover costs as it was. She asked for a partial exemption to bring the taxes back down to $700. However, city council turned down both requests, saying that if they were granted exemptions they would only lose a part of their funding: the city would lose revenue, while the day cares would gain nothing.

But when the two day cares were asked to explain their system of funding, both gave very s i m p l e a n s w e r s - there isn't any. Both centers have only their revenue to pay for taxes, mortgage (if any), building maintenance, wages , utilities and supplies and equipment.

And when only a part of those expenses is met, the Terrace Day Care Centre, which is operated by a non-profit society, is always short and building maintenance is the department that suffers. In the ease of the Sunshine center, a privately owned business, Jones says she manages to pay her one employee but what should be her own wage goes toward expenses. Jones says she

only does it because she loves her work and realizes the impor- tance of the service.

Colton says the Terrace Day Care Centre does manage to get some funding from the Ministry of Social Services and Housing but only on a "one-time" basis, and each need has to be applied for separately. This year she says, the center has received emergency money from the ministry to repair a leaking roof and will soon be receiving another grant to replace over- used carpet.

Jones says that she feels the tax increases are unfair. She explains that she purchased a

house next door to her home in order to offer the best possible facility, but because no one lives in the home it is classified as a business. Other licensed centers, she says, using a portion of their home to operate a day care facility, are only assessed at the residential rate.

Tom Protheroe, Terrace area assessor for the B.C. Assessment Authority, explains that government legislation makes no distinction between a day care and other businesses and requires that the two centers be taxed as businesses because the buildings are clearly for business purposes only.

Missed by a few miles Terrace won't be listed in the

Guinness Book of World Records. But not because of any lack of effort - - the paper chain category just doesn't exist any more.

Kim Saulnier of the "Super Summer" summer playground program says they were looking for something different last July when they discovered Guinness didn't list a record for the longest paper chain, so they set out to make one. And at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, July 5, at Uplands Elementary School, 12 Terrace children completed a chain of newspaper, tape and staples with 691 paper links which measured • 5,825 centimeters (191.109 feet).

Photographs, newspaper clip- pings and a covering letter describing the event were sent to the Guinness office in London, England, but their reply basical- ly said, "Nice try, but no cigar." The paper chain category has been removed from the Guin- ness records for "practical

reasons" - - but even if it hadn't been deleted, it wouldn't have mattered: the last recorded entry was 25 miles long.

But this is no real loss, the Terrace "Super Summer" program, run under the supervision of Kim Saulnier with help from Christine Weber, Carmen Bell, Karen MeConnell and Kathy McKay, has been a hit. The program educated and entertained dozens of local youngsters,

Police seek help to solve murder RCMP in northern B.C. are asking for public assistance in

solving the murder of Philip Innes Fraser, the 24-year-old Alaskan resident whose body was discovered July 27 in a gravel pit off Highway 37 near Stewart. He had been shot to death.

Fraser reportedly left Anchorage, Alaska on June 14, 1988, driving a black 1983 Volkswagen Jetta on his way to school in Washington state. The vehicle was filled with his personal effects, and the back window had been taped in place as the result of an accident.

RCMP have determined that Fraser ent6red Canada at the Beaver Creek border crossing in the Yukon, then travelled south from Upper Liard via Highway 37. He passed through Dease Lake on June 17 or 18 and was last seen at 40 Mile Flats on about the same date in the company of a male hitchhiker. Police are requesting that anyone having information regarding the hitchhiker contact the RCMP immediately. They are particularly interested in contacting an individual driving a dark pickup truck with a light side-stripe who was seen dropping the hitchhiker off before Fraser picked him up.

The hitchhiker is described as a white male in his late teens or early twenties, 5' 10" tall, 200-220 lbs., having short brown hair with a wave, heavy set with a midriff bulge, fat neck, badly decayed teeth, a strong body odor, slow speech and light facial hair under his chin. He was wearing a blue or white T-shirt, red or burgundy pants and running shoes, and carried a packsack on a packboard and a small day pack.

Fraser's vehicle was found at the Car Pool car wash in Prince George on June 19. It had been completely gutted by fire.

Anyone having information related to the murder is asked to contact the RCMP.

employment lowest in years The unemployment rate in the

region has dipped below 11.5 percent, which means that effective August 14, unemployed per- sons may now need more than the standard 10 weeks to reapply for benefits.

Lichtenfeld ,leaves for Island Lichtenfeld worked his last day for the City of Terrace on Aug. 2 and took over his new position in Campbell River last Monday.

Lichtenfeld was born in the old Beach Hospital in Kitimat in 1958 and lived in Kemano for four years before his family moved to Terrace, and he has lived here ever since. Their first residence was at Hillside Lodge, which was "the place" at the time, and he began grade one at Riverside School in 1964. He attended a number of different schools in the Terrace/Thornhill area, and in his last two years in the public school system he ex- celled in cross-country running and track and field.

Fo l lowing g r a d u a t i o n , Lichtenfeld spent a year at UBC and then moved to BCIT, where

he earned a certificate in Building Technology in 1981. With a number of years experience in the construction industry, his father's profession, Lichtenfeld applied for the position of Junior Building Inspec- tor in September, 1981, and was hired in February, 1982.

In 1983 he took on additional responsibility of business licens- ing, and on Dec. 6 last year became responsible for the en- tire department when the Senior Building Inspector left for Gold River.

He says he will be "living out of the trunk" in Campbell River for a while, but as soon as he finds suitable accommodation he will be joined by his wife, Kim, and his daughters aged two and four.

Terrace police report

Terrace City staff bid Senior Building Inspector Gerry Lichtenfeld a fond farewell last Thursday and wished him all the best in his new position as Com- mercial Building Inspector in Campbell River. The affair was held at Polly's Cafe and after several "gag" gifts, Lichtenfeld was presented with a leather brief case.

After dinner entertainment was provided by "All the Girls from City Hall" who sang a song with the same name to the tune of All the Girls I've Loved Before. The words were specially written for the occasion by city employee Julia Mitchell.

Terrace RCMP report that incidents of vehicle windows being shot out by pellet rifles continue to be reported. Three. offences were reported to the police last Wednesday, and RCMP ask that all res idents r epor t any suspicious activity as soon as possible.

In unrelated reports, RCMP say a 1975 Chevrolet driven by Steven Burkett went out of control on the old Skeena bridge about i a.m. last Thursday and

skidded into the guard rail, causing $700 damage. Police say there were no injuries but report Burkett was charged under the motor vehicle act with driving too fast for road conditions.

The same morning, at 2:15 a.m. a 26-year-old Terrace man was arrested while leaving the scene of a break and enter at Twin City Meats, RCMP say the suspect will be appearing in Ter- race Provincial Court at a later date.

where unemployment was high, a standard 10 weeks were required to re-qualify. Now we'll join most of the rest of the country in using a set of criteria to determine the number of weeks a person requires."

This means UI staff will no longer be able to give pat answers on how many weeks an individual will need to re- qualify. Those who were on a claim, then found temporary work, will now need between 10 and 20 weeks of insurable employment, depending on how long their previous claim was, their occupation, and other factors. Kimerey said this was the system used in the office before the recession hit, in 1981-82.

Statistics provided by the Ter- race CEIC show that while unemployment figures here tend to decrease every summer, we've been under 11.5 percent since March of this year. Kimerey suggested that workers accustomed to .the I0 week system should come into the office to determine their eligibility.

Terrace resident Candace Ker- man said that she's concerned about seasonal workers or tradespeople whose work continues to be limited by the weather, or for people who still may depend on the 10 week requirement because of contrac- tual lay-off arrangements. However, she says,"If there's more work around, that 's great."

We'll still remember We got a call the other day from one of our

readers, Mrs. Windsor of the Willows apartments. She said she'd never written a letter to the editor but wanted to express a strongly held opinion on a local issue, so we talked for a while.

It was about the impending doom of the old provincial police building on the corner of Lakelse Ave. and Emerson St. She said it's "saddening" to contemplate the demolition of a landmark that evokes so many memories for long-time residents. Mrs. Windsor arrived in Terrace during 1954, and she said at that time it was a wide-open town with virtually non-stop gambl- ing, drinking and fighting. "There were a lot of good policemen that went through that building," she remarked. "They did a marvellous job."

One image she called up was that of Sunday morn- ings, when, suitably penitent and sober, drunks who had been tossed in jail the previous evening could be seen on Kalum St. washing the police cars.

Despite efforts to save the building, the funding just couldn't be obtained. Rather than considering the building itself, perhaps it would be more instruc- tive to consider what might go up in its place.

To the West is the very uptown-looking 4600 block Lakelse, to the north is the utilitarian Happy Gang Centre, the east is occupied by a retail and office block, and across the street is Twin City Meats, sand- wiched between two vacant lots. The old building on the corner, occupied and spruced up by the Alan Soutar architectural firm, is bordered by trees and a pleasant margin of green. It 's a prominent corner, and whatever goes up on it will dramatically alter the pros- pect.

Even so, the memories will still remain. Thanks, Mrs. Windsor. You can call us anytime.

Exchange holidays Summer is a funny time for people in a town like

Terrace to take their annual holidays. Tourists fill the streets looking for food and fun, school-aged kids clamour for activities and supervision, construction workers require permits, and fair and festival organizers need volunteers• Perhaps the City of Ter- race should " twin" with a Caribbean resort town, and we could schedule educational and business exchanges with it, to coincide with those boring, cold days of January.

Value and risk seek balance

by Victoria correspondent Mark Collins

The University of Victoria bio-medical research scare has opened a Pandora's box full of questions about the level of safety precautions in university laboratories everywhere.

The central figure in this drama is Dr. Francis Nano, a 32-year-old molecular geneticist who sees the world through coke-bottle thick eyeglasses. He said he left the United States to teach at UVic partly because of the good biochemistry and microbiology department, but as much for the peaceful way of life and Canadian values.

The university was pleased to get him. A. recent edition of The Ring, a university newslet- ter, described him as a highly trained molecular geneticist who will bring the students the latest in modern recombinant DNA technology. He is also a specialist in intracellular pathogens, organisms that live and multiply in human cells.

The work which Dr. Nano does has a very high value. It relates to AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis and Legionnaire's disease. The work also has risks.

When first asked about those risks, he said it is a question of degree, but the organisms he

Panel to review project B.C. Minister of Health Peter Dueck announced Aug. 12 that a

panel of experts will be established to review a proposal by the University of Victoria to study bacterial immunity.

The panel will advise the Minister on all public health and safety aspects of this particular research project, which will not proceed pending a full review.

wants to work with are not hazardous to humans or animals. The longer explana- tion which followed was that it was unlikely to harm healthy specimens of the higher order. Someone with AIDS, however, can die from exposure to almost anything, so a creature whose immune system is not functioning properly would be at risk.

Dr. Nano says we should judge the risks in terms of the safety record. "There are several hundred universities in North America and if you go to any of those universities they are all studying pathogenic viruses, bacteria, fungus, pro- tozoa," he said. "All these universities do a lot of recombinant DNA work, they are manipulating disease-cansing microorganisms, they are manipulating disease-causing viruses and there hasn't been one of these so-called incidents."

He said they are using facilities similar to those at UVic and with more dangerous bacteria. " I don't want to list them because it' will cause a furore in every city across the world,"

"Most of the bacteria that are used in teaching laboratories in medical schools are as dangerous or more dangerous than this. Those are medical students who are un. trained personnel working under not as clean or as strict containment as we would work under," Dr. Nano said.

It seems the University of Victoria is not alone in having laboratory facilities which are

dangerously inadequate-t0 han- dle this work. That's the point deputy medical health officer Tim Johnstone made when he blew the whistle in the first place. UVic does not yet have lab facilities with sophisticated ventilation systems to ensure that potentially dangerous microorganisms do not cir- culate in the building or get blown outside.

University of Victoria president Howard Petch appeared to be very uncomfortable fielding questions from reporters. He compared the new requirement for more sophisticated labs to fire regulations which are being continuously upgraded.

"Of all the evidence I have been able to get, the organisms on which Dr. Nano proposes to work are not dangerous," Dr. Perch said. "When I say it is not dangerous I am speaking of something relative, and I think it relatively is not dangerous. I think the risks, particularly in this case, are extraordinarily small."

People have the right to make their own choices about what degree of danger they are exposed to in their lives. In an environment where competition for research funds has become a way of life, we can no longer depend on the universities as objective judges of what risk is acceptable. Including an out- sider such as a medical health officer on university committees dealing with safety of laboratory experiments should be made mandatory to protect the public interest.

Behavior of carts in the urban environment Commentary

Shopping carts may seem like a strange subject to write about, but lately they've become a major concern. Have you noticed that they seem to be multiplying in the parking lots7 1 realize that a newspaper is no place for sex- ual details, but these carts are gathering in groups near our parked cars, and blatently reproducing into herds of wheel- ed beasts. Occasionally, the stores send out a scout to round up the stragglers and the carts are dutifully corraled into a tidy line, but before long they're right back out there, pro- pagating the species in public view.

Sometimes a fugitive shopping cart will escape into the residential areas. I've seen the odd one, casually parked in a ditch, trying to appear unob- trusive. But they never stay out long, obviously needing the companionship of their own kind.

These cart herds provoke a moral decision: Does one steer an emptied cart to the parking lot clusfer, or should they be returned to the stalls provided?. This may seem to be a minor point to you, but it keeps me awake at night.

When I first became an adult shopping cart user, I always returned the carts to the proper stall. There they could be con- trolled ai~d kept from wandering into the path of traffic. Then

Day care subsidy broadened Claude Richmond, Minister

of Social Services and Housing, recently announced a change in regulations related to the• assessment of financial eligibility for day care subsidies. Now the $100 monthly income exemption is available for parents whose in- comes come from student loans, grants or their own savings, rather than just employment income. Starting September l, students will be eligible for the exemption. ,:

Terri Tjernstrom at the Terace Social Services and Housing office explained that students who need day care serices for their children, and who meet financial and social criteria, will have $100 exempted from their income when determining their eligibilty for the subsidy. This exemption can decrease the amount the students pay for day care, she said. Depending on the type and number of hours of care, and the age of child(ren), the subsidy can range from minimal to total.

Tjernstrom urges any student . interested in the day care subsidy to phone the local office for more information.

In making the announcement, Richmond said, "Extending this exemption to all parents who are post-secondary students recog- nizes the. additional costs that

one day a friend witnessed my prudish behavior, and said with disgust, "Will you stop being such a goody-two-shoes and leave the darn thing out where everybody else does?" I felt silly She was right; I ~did feel smug about properly returning my grocery cart, and after all, they do pay people to round them up. So I began pushing them into their wanton herds of cart r ep roduc t ion , saving my valuable time and energy.

Then my father visited me. Noticing my lax attitude toward carts, he righteously offered to return my emptied cart to the stall. " I hate these things around my car. Nobody ever puts them back anymore. Don't you know what they can do 'to your paint job?" Just like Dad: always right• I hung my head in shame, and vowed to always accompany my cart to its confining stall,

It's been a while now since my rebirth. I've slipped into apathy a few times, shoving the cart in- to its wild herd. Most of the time, though, I 'm a good citizen. It keeps the parking lot tidier, and saves somebody's paint job from getting scraped. Most important; the narrow stalls keep cart reproduction down, thereby controlling a species that could overtake us soon• And it's the right thing to do. What did you do with your cart this week? . . . . . . .

Hard at work, Fall Fair president Bey Boutlller supervises as her husband, Bill, and volunteers Mel Rundell and Janny Wassink put together the first of six booths for the "Fun- way". The booths are available to crafts people, gardeners, bakers and local groups or clubs who want to sell their wares or promote their organization. Booths can be reserved by contacting Fall Fair organizers.

All these activities are only a week and a half away so we hope you have your entry forms completed and will bring them to the Fall Fair organizers at their trailer set up at the Tourist Information Cen- tre on Keith Ave., on Friday and ~Satt~rday, Adbq~Sf~26 "~iffd "27,

from 12 noon to 6 p.m., and on Monday, August 29 from 12 noon to 9 p.m.; a late andfinal sitting for all you people who cannot come earlier. As men- tioned in previous weeks though, late entries will not be accepted. Your forms can also be mailed to our box no. 495, Terrace, B.C. VgG 4B5.

And for the kids, don't forget to enter for the pet show, and any of the many children's classes, all explained in our pink-colored prize list still available all over townl Please do read the rules in the front of the book and at the beginning of the various divisions; many have helpful hints too.

We will have a display of baby chicks and information about egg production, with recipes and fun-books for kids. The Gift Guides will be somewhere on the grounds doing t h e i r ever- popular face-painting and other things.

There are also still booths available for rent for retail purposes; phone 635-2607 for more information. And for the peace of mind of you exhibitors: we do have night watches on duty in the hall as well as on the grounds. We hope we will receive a flood of entry forms this year to make our Fair bigger and better than ever beforel

Good luck and have f u n - from Thora and Janny.

Little Theatre looks forward Contributed by J• Falconer

Whe, a newcomer to town asked if the Terrace Little Theatre building was in use, it seemed that a full account of Little Theatre activities might be in order. In her president's report at the annual general meeting in May, Tonee Sabine commented that the 87/88 season had been busy, successful and financially rewarding.

The first production of the year was the musical "Heavens to Betsy", directed to Merry Hallsor. It was ~erformed for enthusiastic audiences at the R.E.M. Lee Theatre, ably assisted by the Community Band and Theatre Alive.

In December, "Sylvester's Surprise Christmas", written and directed by Ken Morton, was performed in the Kalum St. building. As always, the children enjoyed the play, which was followed by a visit from Santa, live music and candy.

The play "Mothers and Fathers", also directed by Ken Morton, opened in March. The public once again showed their support by attending and enjoying the performance.

The Skeena Zone Drama Festival was hosted by the Ter- race Little Theatre at the end of April. A festival committee organized the three-day event, which was both a financial and artistic success. One of the Ter- race entries, "The Creation and Fall of Lucifer", directed by Richard Wood, won the award for Best Play and went to Vic- toria to perform at Malnstage

'The Wiz' is coming The Terrace Little Theatre is preparing for fls next multi.media

production, ',The Wit", a contemporary adaptation of L. Frank Baum's "Wizard of Oz".

Marilyn Kerr, who will be co-directing the play with Merry Hallsor, describes the undertaking as "ambitious". The TLT will work in collaboration with the Theatre Alive• Society and the Ter- race Community Band to stage the piece. It will invoiveelaborate special effects and music, and is billed as entertainment for people of all ages.

The Little Theatre is urging community members with a variety of talents to become part of the production. There are parts for ac- tors, singers, dancers and children; seamstresses are required to help with costumes; and backstage hands will be needed to assist with stage managing.

Anyone interested in helping with any aspect of the show is asked to attend the meetings at the MeColl Playhouse (formerly the Ter- race Little Theatre)at7 p.m. Sept . ' /and 8. ~i ~:~:::iii:iii~!! (~:

Fresh concerns about 'Safe as water' herbicide Terrace Review - - Wednesday, August 24, 1988 7

The common herbicide Roundup, Used on crops, forests, fields and domes,

tically, has been touted by media garden people as 'Safe as Water', but recent findings presented by Dr. David Munro of Seattle, Washington, at a pesticide appeal in British Columbia - - and my findings in the literature - - suggests the opposite.

Roundup, a general purpose herbicide, is a composite of the active ingredient glyphosate, and a surfactant, the name of which was kept secret in Canada under Trade Secret Protection policies of the Canadian federal government, until Dr. Munro, with his better access to information, provided evidence that it was in fact POEA (polyoxy-

ethyleneamine). In the manufacture of surfac-

tant, there is an intermediate called dodecylphenol, which has been linked to maternal toxicity, embryotoxicity, fetotoxicity and skeletal abnormalities when ad- ministered at high doses.

Manufacturers are potentially

under risk of exposure to this substance.

There is also a N-nitroso con- taminant in Roundup which the company claims isn't carcino- genic, although most n-nitroso compounds are.

Volunteers that were given this substance apparently ex- creted it very quickly from the body, with no short term ill effect.

However, cancers can take many years to develop following exposure to a c~scinogen, so perhaps the test was defective in that regard.

R.E. Bollinger, Director of Occupational Health for Union Carbide, cites in a memo to EPA that the surfactants caused an unusual pattern of toxicity, in the occluded cutaneous application to rabbits... "characterized by delayed deaths and macro- scopic evidence of lung injury."

This may have ramifications for humans who may get it under the skin from spraying in thistle patches or anywhere where they may contact it • through normal cuts and scrat- ches obtained in working in the

woods. (I am aware of one chap whose leg swelled up so much from this sort of thing that he had to be hospitafized. There are probably many other cases.)

Dr. Munro also stated that there have been cases of ana- phylactic reaction to this herbicide, cause for concern to those with allergies.

That there are other health ramifications for humans is suggested by human deaths reported by the Japanese in the scien- tific literature, attributable to Roundup.

Yusuke Sawada and others report in the Feb. 6 issue of the Medical Journal the Lancet, that ". . . 56 cases of toxicity were reported in Japan between June, 1984 and March, 1986."

Of these people, nine died. Forty-eight cases were attempted suicides, three Were accidents (all infants); in the other five, the circumstances were unknown.

The authors attribute most of the acute toxicity to the surfactant in Roundup.

Because the federal and provincial fisheries departments have been concerned with Roundup and especially the surfactant, and because of its high

Deserving-of" respect To the Editor;

The Meanskinisht Village Historical Association has new informat ion regarding the flowers that were taken and removed from the Sutton family

graves, between June 18 and July 3, 1988.

A foster son and his family of the late Philip and Agnes Sutton came to pay their respects on August II, 1988 and were in- formed by a citizen of Cedarvale that the flowers were cleaned off by an "Evelyn" because the flowers were old.

We would like to explain this Association's position in th is

• village (the late Agnes Sutton was a director and an hoaorary member). Before this Associa- tion was formed, Agnes was in authority of certain matters con- cerning this village and the graveyard. For approximately nine years this graveyard has been within the jurisdiction of this Association. Members m charge of the graveyard checked the Sutton graves in the early springtime and noted the flowers were all in new condition. These • flowers were purchased from flower shops by friends and relatives. Agnes loved flowers

Graves are usually left for two years. The late Agnes Sutton was-a Chieftainess, she also held the name of her uncle, Chief Ax- gawt, a High Chief of Git- wangak. She should be treated as a Chief and not continuously shown total disrespect.

• It will be one year since Agnes passed away, on August 26, 1987. She is missed by all who knew her as her door was open to all people from all walks of life. Today, when relatives and

friends come through Cedar- vale, they have nowhere to go.

The members of this Associa- tion who live here are doing their best to continue to try and make visitors feel welcome. We are a non-profit association and our work is volunteer. Through

.membership fees and donations we are able to take care of the museum and graveyard.

In conclusion, I'd like to add that the name Meanskinisht was the name of this village before the C.N. Rail came through; the post office across the river needed a name, and thatls why this village is known as Cedarvale. It has nothing t o do with land claims or tribal ways.

while she lived here and before she was hospitalized in 1983. She ' ' ' ' "~ " planted roses on Philip and Fred's grave with the help of her friend Barbara Parfitt. After Agnes was admitted to the hospital and before her death this Association saw that these graves were kept up for her.

Relatives and friends are returning to Cedarvale to visit Agnes' grave, only to find no flowers.

fish toxicity, water solubility and the finding• of it in streams by Mike Wan, B.C. researcher, the ~'manufacturer ~has reduced the concentration of surfactant to ten percent from fifteen.

My questions are: (l. How many people have died world- wide to date? (2. What circumstances surrounded the unknown deaths? (3. Has there been a cover-up in Canada and the U.S.A. of deaths here? (I am certain there has because the Japanese workers made no reference to mortality in the U.S.A. or Canada, and this is almost certain to have occurred.) (5. Were the parents of the children who were poisoned adequately aware of the danger, or were they deluded by false advertising even as the people of Vancouver have been by our gardening experts?

I attended an accidental overspraying of residents of Kitimat last year. There were complaints of nose bleeds, headaches, rashes on the skin. The press reported statements from the Skeena Health Unit but • refused my story. However, the chief medical officer phoned me when he was appraised of the incident and asked if I could loan him material on Roundup, which I did.

However, subsequent to that, I • received information about

people who worked with Round- up, indicating that chronic nose bleeds were a problem.

I reasoned that if the nasal mucosa were to be damaged, that the lungs were in even more danger.

I was consequently vindicated when I found the article in the British Journal.

ing Roundup to the environment, we are in fact applying formaldehyde by this same process.

That this process has the potential to go on for a long time is evident from studies by Finnish researchers, who found as much as 55 percent of the pesticide present eight months after spraying.

around and their lungs, that this stuff is safe?"

How many people are out there running around damaging their lungs thinking that this stuff is safe?

In another related development, it has come to light that one of the degradation (breakdown) products of Roundup is formaldehyde.

When I phoned the Cancer In- stitute in Vancouver, I was told that formaldehyde was common in the home, it was found in plywood glues, furniture and so on, it was common in nature and very reactive so that it didn't last long in the environment, and a review done in 1983 showed that there was no problem, nothing to worry about, it caused nasal cancer in rats but it wasn't a pro- ven carcinogen in humans.

Being d i s t r u s t f u l of assurances based on literature from five years ago, I went to the UBC research library at Van- couver General Hospital and found a recent article on formaldehyde and carcinogenesis. It contradicted the gentleman from the Cancer Institute, and in fact constituted evidence that it was a rat, mouse and human carcinogen though the results were couched in the usual cautious rhetoric of the scientist (Roush, George C. et al. 1987 JNCI. Vol 79. No.6, Dec. 1221 -1224, see also his bibliography).

Formaldehyde has been linked to nasopharyngeal cancers as well as to allergenic reactions in

I note now how clever it was damaging on the part of industry to em- thinking phasize the toxicology of

glyphosate, the so-called active ingredient in Roundup, and to not mention the toxicity of the surfactant or the formaldehyde, and also to insist on the protection of the surfactant's name as a trade secret.

Because we are being told it is as safe as water, because it can persist for over eight months in the environment, because of the widespread use of this pesticide globally, and because of these poisonings and toxicological findings, there should be great concern about Roundup to those involved with public health.

In my view, the evidence suggests that it is an unreasonable and an unacceptable risk to human and environmental health to continue •.using this pesticide and it should be bann- ed immediately from registration in Canada.

Dr. Munro said that it hadn't yet received final appioval in the U.S.A. Why it has been approved in Canada should be the subject of vigorous investigation.

This material raises two legal questions: (1 ~ Is it possible that the false representations may have contributed to human deaths, especially amongst any children victims? (2. Is there criminal culpability in this matter and grounds for. a class action?

Who is responsible ultimately • for protecting the health and

safety of the public? Well, the Handbook for Pesti-

"Don Adams of the Detroit organization gave us a lot of good advice, including no dry- land training. He said it just saps the kids' strength, cutting their ability to learn and enjoy while on the ice."

"The two-and-a-half hours ice . time daily is more than enough for any age."

Rod Philpott, who compiled the drills into a day-by-day in- struction manual, set it up for four age groups. They take to the ice for one hour and 15-minute sessions. Then they break for a session, but stay at the rink because they're back on the ice right after the next group.

This means they're only at the rink for half a day, thus getting spare time to go for a swim or go downtown for the rest ~ of the

Terrace's Jeff Sharpies takes on another job when he finishes with the Terrace summer hockey school on the Z7th. Before he hits Detroit's NHL training camp in early September, he'll be doing some public relations work for the team. Jeff flies out of here on the 28th for Detroit, where he'll join Red Wings' assistant coach Dave Lewis, director of public relations Bill Jamieson, and two teammates - - John Chabot and Adam Oates. Wings' broadcaster Dave Strader pads out this crew as they board a 40.foot motorhome and hit the road on a "meet.the-team" press junket. From Aug. 30 to Sept. 2,they make stops at London, Ontaflo, and four Michigan locations - - Flint, Lansing, Traverse City and Grand Rapids. They'll attend public gatherings at each location for interviews, pictures and autograph sessions. It's all part of Detroit's good.guys image with the public.

Sudden death , shut-out over hot N a n a i m o team

Terraee's SKB Molson Wreckers ran up a record of six wins against one loss, and captured the 1988 men's senior 'B' slo-pitch softball championship of British Columbia on the Aug. 13 weekend at Kamloops.

The Wreckers had to come back from 'B' side of the 15-team double.knockout to clinch the title, and they had to win two straight over previously unbeaten Nanaimo Chowder Blues to do it.

The Wreckers played two games the first day - - heating North Vancouver's Raineer Studs 9-1 and downing Kamloops Bailey's Bandits 10-1.

Thesecond day saw them play five games. They earned a berth in • the '~k! side final by knocking off Prince George Steamers 16-6.

Next came their only l o s s - - 6-$ to Chowder Blues in the 'A' final.

Dropping to 'B' side, they beat Wheelhouse Pub of Surrey 9-2 to gain another shot at undefeated Nanaimo.

The Wreckers won 11-4 to set up a deciding contest as both teams had only one loss.

It was an 84) shutout for Terrace in the sudden-death match, giving them the provincial championship for senior 'B'.

Two Wreckers were singled out for individual honors. Dan Beaulae was named best defensive player, while Simon Dodd was named the most inspirational player. The $KB Molson Wreckers came home from Kamloops last week with the B.C. Senior

'B' men's slo.pitch softball championship. Prior to beating Nanaimo in the final, they posed for this photo at Kamloops.

I I,VvnELCOM E TO THE 5,2% TAX BRACKET, 1 We don't suppose that anyone feels

"welcome" at the thought of entering the 52% tax bracket. But the truth is, every time you open a beer, that's how much of it is going to Federal and Provincial taxes.

In fact, 52% is the national average Since the recent provincial tax hike here in British Columbia, we're actually paying more than 56%, which is one of the highest rates anywhere in the free world.

To get specific, of the $10.80" Canadians pay for 12 bottles of domestic beer, $5.62 goes to Federal and Provincial taxes, $2.31 is spent on production, $1.08 on labour, 86¢ on sales and distribution and 76¢ goes to packaging and recycling. The brewer make.s 17¢ profit on the case~ or 1.4¢ per bottle

We think beer taxes are already too high and should be kept from climbing higher. And we wanted you to know the facts, so that next time anyone suggests raising taxes on beer, you can ask yourself what's fair. *PHces may vary by brand and region. : - _.

Terrace woman emerg as top Canadian gun Ali Johnston of Terrace

started handgun shooting four years ago "just to keep my husband company because he was shooting. And I liked it."

In that time she has ac- cumulated a national and a B.C. championship, and might have a crack at world competition next spring.

Ali was up against 17 women in Canadian Handgun Cham- pionships at Edmonton in July. She won the air pistol title, and added a silver medal for the .22 sport pistol in the sharpshooter class.

Her effort in Alberta earned her a position on the ladies ha-

tional .team. We asked her what this meant for the future.

"What happened was that I was nominated by the national coach to the international committee. They decide if you're going to be on the team."

" I should be on the team because I've .met the criteria of citizenship, shooting standing and national score. I qu~ify in all aspects, so its now just a matter of waiting to see where and when we'll go.

"Right now it looks like they'll have a training session in Granby, Quebec, sometime in October. In the long range, they're hoping to send a team to

The run, which has raised millions of dollars for cancer research in the name of the late one-legged runner, will go in two Sessions in Terrace, according to local organizer Garry Pettipas.

Pettipas said this year's route will be the same as used by the Skeena Valley Runners in their spring run. It's a five-kilometer course around the horseshoe area, starting and ending at the bandshell by the public library.

Runners, or walkers, can go

and turn it in to the bank - - not at the finish line.

Pettipas said the twosessions would be 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.

o bJle home development rejected ~:~!:ii:A mobile home park proposal ' near the intersection of Highway

37 and Krumm Road in Thorn- hill has failed to receive any support from the board of directors

• 70f the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine. The proposal, submitted by Roger Sheppard of S.C.&C. Holdings, came to the board through a crown land/application referral, and after examination the board decided

: theycouldn ' t support the idea • because the land was in the

Agricultural Land Reserve and Contrary to the Thornhill Of- ficial Settlement Plan.

Sheppard's proposal described a five:year development plan which included 140 mobile home pads plus a caretaker's office on 30 acres of crown land located on t h e south side of Krumm Road. The first phase of development included 50 pads

-and• the caretaker's residence, and On completion the plan called for 1.7 acres of play area scat-

~ered throughout the development.

According to Shepphard, a study done • by the regional district in 1987 showed that most mobile home parks in ThornhiU were full and there was a need for more spaces. In his applica.. t ion, he pointed out that although Krumm Road was con-

sidered to be the border line for further development, residential development already existed on both sides of the road.

Board director Les Wat- mough ~aid the motion not to support the concept was made with "regret" because the board would like to see this kind of development in Thornhill. He said, however, that a lot of work went into the Official Settlement Plan and Krumm Road was then, "and probably still is", the "best line" for controlling future development in the area.

He explained that the area north of the road is open for development, while land south of the road is for rural agricultural l a n d use. Any residentialdevelopment on the south side of the road, he said, existed prior to the settlement plan. According to Watmough, crown land is available in the lower Thornhill area. "I t is un- fortunate they decided to put their development there (on Krumm Road) and they're not willing to change," he remarked.

Sheppard did receive some support from directors Ruth Hallock of Terrace and John LeSage of Kitimat, who voted against the_ motion. LeSage said the development plan hadn't

. Terrace city council members Ruth Halleck end Bob Cooper opened the valve to the new sewage treatment plant last Friday, making the old facility obsolete. The two 25-by-75 feet, 15-feet deep clarifiers seen in the background, have now been replaced by two clay-lined lagoons measuring 358-by-440 feet, and 15.feet deep.

What's involved in retail financing

Retail financing can be defined simply as a combination of the need for money by a retailer, and the provision of money to a retailer by a lender or investor.

The need for money can come when a retail business is just getting started, when it is doing well, or when it needs financing to enable its survival during

Lenders and investors first look .for evidence of good management from an applicant. They must be provided, of course, with the necessary and appropriate statements and figures to enable them to reach a decision.

Being prepared, knowing the required procedures, and being aware of the various kinds of financing available to retailers are the first steps in demonstrating sound management in any such proposal. •

There are a number of factors involved in determing whether or not a loan application will be accepted, and these will be discussed in detail in future columns in this series.

The provision of money, for example, can be divided into two categories: ownership money and borrowed money. Ownership money is equity financing and the use of a business's profits. Borrowed money means loans and trade credits, The second category is the most common form of retail financing.

But, obviously, a retail proprietor must study •both options carefully before making thedecision as to which will be most satisfactory in any particular case.

From the lender's point of view, meanwhile, an important con- sideration is security, lack of which is the major reason why a great number of retailers have their loan proposals reduced or, at

. the very worst, turned down. In financing a retail business, lenders want to be sure that they

won't lose their .money. And while debt load and lack of equity are factors which

lenders consider when evaluating a business as a viable concern, security is what they use to protect their loan in case they have misjudged and the business fails. Thus, the proof of security becomesa key.forla retailer seeking financing, , ..

TERRACE - - The city's new $1.S million sewage treatment plant went on-line, on-budget, last Friday when aldermen Ruth Halleck and Bob Cooper opened the main valve to the new lagoon system while Don Gare, Foreman • of, Em, ironmental Health Services, ! for the. ~ity, closed the valve to t h e old system. According t o Gare, it will take 30 days for the new lagoon system to fill before en- vironmentaUy clean effluent will begin to be released into the

slight pressure promotes even air discharge. In the event of a power failure, the valves close automatically to prevent solids from entering the aeration system.

Fine bubbles from the aerating tubing form a continuous stream of: gently rising air which acts as a hydraulic barrier to hold water behind it, cir- culating the water from top to bottom before it passes through the barrier to the next cell. Aera- tion continues in each cell and a

!arge volume of oxygen is dissolved in the water, reducing aerobically suspended solids to carbon dioxide and water:

Other solids are also digested by facultative bacteria and the result is an almost identical duplication of the natural pro- .cess of digestion of sludge - - much of it into protein. In addition, the system inherently provides primary settlement of solids, biological oxidation, final settling, odor control and

Gardens, romar and in watercol by Andrea Deakln

"The very best of them (garden designers) can tak yard, and by clever construction and planting, lead t enchanting track to an idyllic comer..." So Graham Rose count of the emotional impact of the romantic garden possible, even in a confined area, to produce a garder reality, excludes reason, and appeals directly to the

This type of garden effect, whether it be a long green ing on some special spot - - a statue, a plant, a parti whether it be a shimmer of water and water lilies remin~ whether it be a weathered urn as a focus of a rambling h nial bed; or whether it be a profusion of roses cascadin new wall are all compelling in their appeal to our desire t quility, a private spof to soothe the senses.

Graham Rose's instructions are practical, even whet lyrical, and there is clear detailed information on disgui dafies of the garden, producing an effective entrance, choosing plants for chiaroscuro, exotic effect and romantic softness. Arbors, water gardens, loggias, arcades, the use Of statuary and mirrors, caves and grottos are all covered, and although may of the designs require a generous garden, there are a great many ideas which can be suc- cessfiflly employed in a small area. Plant charts give guidance in choosing trees, shrubs and plants.

This is a beautifully illustrated book, well-written, helpful and full of atmosphere. "The Romantic Garden" by Graham Rose is published by Penguin Books at $19.95.

The publisher's note gives the background to a very free collection of watercolors by Alfred Parson R.A.

At the beginning of the century Ellen Ann Wilmot, a wealthy English gardener and botanist, commissioned by Alfred Parsons to paint the roses in her gardens at Great Warley, and in France and Italy. The result was 132 finely observed and detailed watercolors which were published between 1910 and 1914. Unfortunately the color printing was very poor, a yellowish tinge affected the early work, and the accom- panying text was very weak. The First World War broke out andthat Was the end of the venture.

, . After ~ W'dmot's death the paiBfings came into:t.h~ l~n. ds of ~e Royal Horticultural Society, and they have. finally been re-released in a new book, "A Garden of Roses" accompanied by a commentary by Graham Stuart Thomas, Gard~s Comultant to the National Trust in Bri- tain and an authority on roses. Mr. Thomas's notes, brief and lucid, give the historical background to each rose, a description of its form and a delineation of its parentage. The reproductions in this case are very good, true color and no loss of delicate tone. The book will have a great appeal to gardeners, rose-lovers, flower painters, anyone With an affection for these lovely and diverse flowers. It has been very hand- somely produced and well bound, the pages opening fiat to display the prints well. The prints, now all uniform in size, have been in some cases reduced from the paintings. The percentage of change is given at the foot of each page.

"A Garden of Roses" is published by Michael Joseph and is available inCanada from Penguin Books at $37.95.

N e w Community Services administrator chosen After months of searching, ment skills for people having Copeland noted that a recent ex-

the Terrace and District Com- munity Services Society announced last week that Detlef Beck, a resident of Kitimat, will succeed Lorna Copeland as the agency's administrator, Beck will take over August 29, when Copeland leaves Terrace per- manently to join her family in Prince George.

Beck has lived in the North- west since 1955, is a graduate of UBC, operated a business i n Kitimat, and has worked for both Alcan and Eurocan. He has also served as an alderman on Kitimat municipal council a n d as. a director for the Kitimat- Stikine Regional District.

Copeland and Beck announced his appointment in a joint interview late last week. Beck told the Terrace Review that his experience in local government has given him "a good understanding of the system", a factor that Copeland conc~red is a critical

difficulty getting into the workforce and matches them up with potential employers. Beck remarked that hisnew position seems suitable in view of his interest in people and economic development as an influence in the "wellness" of communities. "It fits right in," he said.

As part of the handover, Beck and Copeland summarized the agency's focal points for the ap- proaching year. They recently vacated their headquarters at 4530 Lakelse Ave. and moved into the lower floor at city hall. Cope!and said the two alternate secondary school programs -- the Terrace Alternate Program and New Horizons - - that TDCSS operates for School District 88 will move into the building in September.

Extra cut for small loggers Small forest businesses will

now have more opportunity for growth and expansion, says Forests Minister and Skeena MLA Dave Parker, due to an amendment to the Forest Act and a new small business forest enterprise regulation. Parker said the amount of timber available under the Small Business Forest Enterprise Pro- gram has been doubled in size and now makes up about 15 percent of the province's allowable annual cut.

Graeme Hynd, Timber Of- ficer for the Prince Rupert Forest Region, says the changes mean an even greater increase in logging in the Northwest. Hynd states that logging contractors working u n d e r the small business program in the Kalum

Forest District currently cut 258,000 cubic meters of timber. But with the amendment, an additional 78,000 cubic meters (about 30 percent more): of timber will be available for sale. He said the additional timber was made ava i lab le last November when major forest companies lost five percent of their allowable annual cut under the new forestpolicy.

Parker says the changes will also "promote and encourage" secondary manufacturing such as the production of furniture, doors and windows. "We've introduced 'bid proposals'," explains Parker, "which are a new type of timber sale under the program to promote secondary manufacturing. We want to encourage the best business p]~o-

posals which involve additional mantffacturing:!and: therefore, bid proposals will not be used to support primary sawmills."

Parker says :the new policy will create greater competition for small business sales, and in- creased wood processing will open up new job opportunities in the remanufacturing sector.

He adds that the ministry has also established a Small Business Forest • Enterprise Account which will receive timber sales revenues to finance forest regeneration and additional timber sales. "This new account provides the mechanism to manage the expanded program," explains Parker. "The public will receive a dividend at the end of each fiscal year from the excess of revenues over expenditures."

mentally handicapped children, is slated for replacement this year due to an increase in clientele.

Copeland said one need in the region she would like the TDCSS to address is early in- te rvent ion and long-term foll-owup to help children with mental disabilities and learning disorders. She said that although the present system provides help at several levels, there is not enough continuity as children grow older and move from one program to another. Family counselling to prevent problems in the child's growing years would be an integral part of the approach.

Completion of the respite home for mentally handicapped children was one of the agency's major projects this year, and

periment to introduce physically handicapped children into the home had been successful. That raises the possibility of setting up programs under contract to the Ministry of Health, and

• Copeland indicated that. a ped ia t r i c l ong - t e rm care resource may be part of the agency's future.

The TDCSS programs are in a continuous state of review, and Copeland said she thinks the time has come to take an in- depth look at the agency's staff and personnel development. "We've reached the limit of our pe r sonne l in te rms of expansion," she stated.

Beck acknowledged that the availability of skilled people is a problem for the agency, as it i s for other professionally-staffed organizations in the north. He commended Northwest Com- muni ty College for their cooperation in establishing programs to provide the TDCSS with a poo ! of trained local people to draw on. Despite t ha t help, however, the agency still has to range widely in its recruit- ment efforts, and Beck said they will probably be looking more and more to the University o f Victoria, with its concentration of social services courses and ex- pertise.

At the conclusion Of the interview Copeland encountered one of the agency,s clients in the hallway, photocopying an arm- ful of documents. "Well , heU0'!" she exclaimed, and an animated conversation ensued. "Do you know Detlef? He is taking over my job. Detlef, meet

Women's society garage sale raises money to help Third World cause

Ter r a c e ' s •Women and Development society held a successful garage sale Saturday, netting over $230 by midday.

The proceeds will go towards a women's sewing co-operative in Botswana, Africa. Because school children there are required to have uniforms to attend classes, and because buying such uniforms meant an expensive trip into a city, the co- operative formed to start sewing them locally. With a grant from CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency), the Botswana women took over an old garment factory. This also provides employment income for the women, whose husbands may be away for 11 months at a time, working in low-paying mining jobs .

• Elizabeth Snyder says the Ter- race group hopes to raise more money for the co-operative through a variety of monthly events, and they have a unique fund - r a i s i ng idea: house- cleaning. A team of four or five volunteers spends a few hours to clean your apartment or house, at a cost of about $75 to $100. Proceeds go tO the BotSwana co-

operative, volunteer commit- ment i s kept to a reasonable amount of time, and supporters get a clean house. Snyder and society member Francis Birdsell says that while fund-raising tional counterparts, dances are more fun, the house- International. cleaning project is more

people's concerns about the cur- rent condition of the property were unfounded. He says that when the store was open a few years ago there wasn't a problem but after the store closed junk mail from mail boxes located on the property became amatter of concern. Once the store is reopened however, says Renney, it will disappear. 'Another concern heard at the public hear|rig were "kids hanging around the property" but Renney writes that these are primarily school children waiting for the bus.

Gas pumps or a neighborhood pubwould also be allowed under

the rezoning and he says residents are also opposed to that sort of development in Cop- perside. He says however, that his plans don't include this sort of commercial development and has asked the regional district if those uses can't be deleted from uses permitted under the Neighborhood Commercial Zone on this application.

Renney also says that he's not interested in a grocery'store or video machines, and will be sticking to his original concept when the rezoning application was filed -- a ceramics store. He says that the business wouldn't attract a lot of traffic and if he ever did enlarge the business to include a small corner store it would only be at the request of the residents.

for lake written ., .o,.oo In a letter to the Ministry of

Forests in Smithers, Terrace resident Kolbjorn Eide has expressed concern over a B.C. Forest proposal for the development of cross country ski trails along Clearwater Creek at the south end of Lakelse Lake. Eide, who holds a trapline in t h e

area , says that according to a consultant's report, the trails wouldbe equal in width to logging roads and will silt and pollute the nearby streams and lakes for many years to come.

"At this time," says Eide, "we see several attacks on the proposed Wildlife Management area and I would like to.strongly appeal for support in protecting this extremely valuable environment. If this area is to be destroyed it will set a bad prece- dent for the future in our area and we will know that there d()es not exist any protection for our environment."

Eide says that construction of the trails would destroy part of a 30-year old reforested area as Well as some older timber along spawning streams. He explains that this will have an adverse effect on coho salmon, trout and furbearing animals.

The area in question was part of Eiders guiding territory from

1964 to 1978 and he refers to it as the, ,'pear of the Skeena watershed", He says the spawning streams combined with grassy areas have produced a. " t r e m e n d o u s " commercial salmon catch for the past 100 years, and if left alone will produce more income and jobs than any other area of the Skeena drainage system. In addition, he says, the area contains a number of moose and bears and is a "treasure house" of beaver, ot- ter, marten, mink and muskrat, as well as home to a variety of birds including trumpeter swans, who use the area as a wintering

Headed for !0,000

Ice cream sells ,

desp i te weather Zar Pauls has had a pretty

successful season, even though the weather hasn't been co- operating with ice cream sales. The 16-year-old figures he's earned a few thousand dollars this summer, more than he could have made Working at a fast food place, and he's fairly close to achieving membership in the "ten grand club", which can mean a trip to Edmonton

• courtesy of Dickie Dee. "Last year Rodney Steele and

I went. They pay for the water park and fantasy land at the mall, then there's the awards. b a n q u e t . " Pauls received awards for selling at least 10,000 ice cream treats over the summer, for top sales in the city, and

• for good sales at special events. Terrace's summer attractions like Riverboat Days netted him over $3,00 in sales on six different occasions.

This is the third summer he's worked the commission sales job. He works five days a week for seven or eight hours a day. Some of his income goes for spending money, the rest is sav- ed towards his future education.

This season will end around September 5, except for

weekends and evenings if the weather is nice, Pauls' employer Ted Davis says. Early this July, he purchased the franchise, which started in Winnipeg in 1959, f rom former operator Finn Larsen. Davis says this summer's rainy weather has affected sales, and he's hoping it will improve in the next few weeks.

But' 'really hot days are not as good as warm days. People tend to buy ice cream when it's a bit cooler and they're taking walks after supper or doing yard work . "

Davis has two bikes and four riders. He says the kids enjoy riding the bikes, earning their own money, and taking on the responsibility of working on their own.

Pauls agrees that earning the money is the best part, though he could do without the silly ice cream-related names his school- mates think up to call him. Yet his success should be envied. What's the secret of his high sales, summer after summer? "Go slow and ring your bell", not a bad philosophy for any en- trepreneur to follow.

Terrace R e v l e w - Wednesday, August 24, 1988 19

Dlckle Dee operator Zar Pauls is well on the way to selling another 10,000 ice cream treats in Terrace this summer, despite the cool and rainy weather.

No Olympics for Paul Clark Dr. Paul Clark's bid for a

berth on the 10-man wheelchair squad that races the 1500 meter race at the Korean Olympics came up short during heats and L semi-finals in Belgium last week.

Racing against more than 50 wheelers from around the world, the Terrace optometrist placed second in his heat with a time of 4 minutes, 10 seconds - - well off his personal best time.

In his semi-final, Clark was timed at 4 minutes, 7 seconds. It gave him eighth place and a seat on the sidelines.

Among the group gaining places on the team were Andre Viger of Montreal and Dan

"We raced o n a very slow Wesley of Vancouver. The t rack," Clark told us in a phone group also included two Ger- call from Belgium. "Wheelers of marts , two F r e n c h , one all abilities took part, including American, one Swiss and one many with lesser handicaps." Belgian.

The winning time was 3 minutes, 52 seconds overall.

Clark is now headed home to Canada, where he'll spend time with his parents at Woodstock, Ontario, and train for the Mon- treal Marathon coming up o n Labour Day. • •

Easy, summer for fire patrol This summer's cool, moist

weather has been frustrating for local residents and tourists, but one group of people who aren't minding it are the fire protection staff at the Kalum District Forest office.

During the past two weeks

there were only four new fires in the district, all of which were easily extinguished. Protection operations manager Erie Holt says the number of fires this summer is low in comparison to last year - - 23 compared to 40 - - and low for the ten-year average in the district, None of

this year's fires presented much of a challenge for firefighters.

In the Prince Rupert Forest Region as of Aug. 11, 62 fires had burned a total of 373 hec- tares. By the same date last year, 154 fires had scorched 487 hec- tares,

Pavement petition A letter to city council signed

by four city residents living at 2707 and 2010 Braun has now seen some action. At their last r egu la r meet ing , counci l adopted a recommendation, based on the letter, to proceed with a petition in order to determine if two.thirds of the Braun St. residents living between Agar and Haugland want pavement.

Braun was recently paved from Keith to A g a r and their letter complained that the pavement ended at the centre of one of their driveways. They said this left them with the age old dust problem and a more severe pothole problem than they had before.

City administrator , Bob Hallsor, explained that a petition was circulated three years ago asking residents on Braun from Keith to Medeek if they wanted pavement. He said that they only received positive responses from residents living between Keith and Agar so that when a new petition was circulated earlier this year it centered on this area of Braun only.

According to Hallsor, a new petition is now being circulated to residents between Agar and Haugland and the public works department is preparing an estimate for the section of Braun between Haugland and Medeek for future reference.

Skeena Cell UalOSe adlusts nd workers to new anti-stain chemical

Skeena Cellulose in Terrace has switched to a dioxin-free anti-sapstain chemical to use on its export lumber sawmill, manager Jim Davis says. The new chemical, TCMTB, pre- vents mold and fungus from forming on the packaged softwood as it's being shipped to Japan and Europe. The chemical formerly used, chlorophen- el, had a long half-life, while TCMTB bre.aks down in two to seven days once exposed to sunlight.

With the change from chloro- phenol, the mill also redesigned the manner in which the lumber is handled to reduce the workers' exposure to the chemical. Davis and processing superintendent Arnie Euverman explained that the boards are sprayed after sorting and grading so that chips and ends are not unnecessarily treated. Any lumber that needs to be re- manufactured is not sprayed, meaning those employees aren't working with the chemical.

Instead of 18 people a shift working with treated wood, there's now seven in total. Those workers most directly involved with the spraying operate the machines from a distance of several meters away, and wear protective gear.

The TCMTB solution is recycled within the building, reducing possible air pollu- tion and keeping it contained within the system. An elaborate set-up of tanks and hoses mixes the solution automatically as needed.

" A few other mills have been here looking at the site. It's recognized as the best, most responsible system," Euverman said.

John Zak, the union representative on the chemical and safety committees, said since May, when the new chemical and system were put into operation, there have been only five first aid cases. "There were some skin irritations, like a dermatitis or rash, caused by misuse of safety equipment. In the past six

effluent polishing. Certified industrial laboratory

tests have shown that the system is three to five times more effective than costlier disposal systems and indicates that the costs of maintenance are decreased because sludge disposal won't be required for at least 20 to 40 years.

Original estimates for the project were about $2.5 million but design work by KLM Engineer- ing reduced the cost by replacing a concrete liner in the lagoons with locally available clay. Pro- ject construction was done by Bud Smith Contracting of Ter- race, and all that remains is some landscape work. The old clarifier and digester will be demolished at a later date.

or seven weeks, though, there have been no further incidents."

TCMTB contains a caustic substance which keeps it in its water-soluable form. Unlike chlorophenates, where exposure is difficult to detect (a monthly u r ina lys i s was requ i red) , TCMTB shows up immediately, and it is not absorbed easily. "The danger warning is a big advantage," Euverman said.

Euverman explained that there are 35 different kinds of mold and fungus that can affect B.C. lumber, with anti-sapstain chemicals being used for the past 40 or 50 years. "The chemical of choice was chlorophenate - - i t was cheap, easy to use and effective." But awarenesss of how to use such chemicals safely was not there 40 years ago, as mill workers used simple watering cans or dip tanks for chemcial application. With more awareness of the dangers o f the diox- ins in chlorophenates, and with cost-saving measures becoming more important, limiting the use .of chemicals, even safer ones, became an issue.

Although TCMTB is about five times as expensive as chlorophenates, Davis said pressure from Waste Manage- ment motivated them to make the switch. Hoa Le, a waste management officer in Smithers said that the Waste Management Branch had an anti-sapstain workshop in April, where the government was able to con- vince the industry to move to less -pers i s ten t • chemica ls . "TCMTB and chlorophenates are equally toxic, but TCMTB is less persistent in the environment," he said.

There are a lot of misconcep- tions about chemicals, including TCMTB, Zak says. "We heard about a sawmill using TCMTB having 18 or 23 birds in the vicinity dying. It turned out to be one bird. The sawmill manager said birds had been dying around there for years before they even s ta r ted using chlorophenates."

Because of the concerns, however, union and managen-

-ment attended a TCMTB seminar in Vancouver in June, and have been working together to ensure the safest possible use of the chemical. "We're proud of the approach we're taking," Euveron said, and Zak agreed, saying "Management has been exceptional. They've shared everything with us, so there's no major issue." He added, "The union doesn't condone the use of any chemical but we must work with management to protect the membership. We know the mill won't run without anti- stain chemicals."

Holiday delay Swi mining pool projoct still treading water

TERRACE - - The last time the city discussed the municipal swimming pool expansion project was at a Committee of the Whole meeting about six weeks ago, and it probably won't be discussed again until mid- October. According to city administrator Bob Hallsor, several aldermen have been on holidays, and the issue will have to wait until they all return and the en- tire council can get together.

Hallsor says city aldermen have already "touched base" with MLA Dave Parker and will also have the opportunity to discuss options with a number of other provincial government representatives during the Union of British Columbia Municipali- ties annual meeting to be held at Whistler on Sept. 21.

One option is to scrap the pool expansion and put the money into another recreation- oriented project, but council isn't sure they can do that. " I f we don't do it (the pool expansion), we don't want to lose the money," explained Hallsor,

adding that the meeting will give aldermen the opportunity to discuss the project with people from a variety of government departments such as Municipal Affairs and the Provincial Secretary.

In March of 1987 the project was valued at $469,200 by Ter- race architect Alex Inselberg, but this was upped to $501,160 in August. Changes and revi- sions called for another estimate in April of this year, and the price was raised to $565,000.

When two sealed tenders for the project were opened, however, the lowest was more than 40 percent higher than the last es t imate . Giesbrecht Developments of Burns Lake said they could do the job for $806,000 while H & H Builders of Terrace said it would cost $836,0O0.

Inselberg attributed the difference to the fact that the construction industry in Prince George and Vancouver were "very busy" and no bids were received from the larger centers.

However, when Dennis Palmu of H & H Construction was asked to explain the difference, he said that the difference probably centered around the fact that the project contained so many renovations.

He explained that the usual procedure in developing an estimate is for the architect to do the initial design work and then rely on electrical, structural and mechanical consultants to come up with a cost. Palmu said this system works fine when working on a new structure, but renovations can cost two to three times more than a new building, and there are often differences between the estimate and bids.

Inselberg said, however, that electrical work was estimated at $75,000 while the low bid was $86,000 and plumbing and heating were estimated at $125,000 but the low bid was $188,900. Inselberg suggested scaling the project down or negotiating a contract with H & H Construction for specific work at a predetermined sum.

Rotary exchange student returns from down under " I 'm definitely glad I went. I would recommend it to everyone - - it's such agood opportunity," said Karen Karu of Terrace, who arrived home August 14 from Australia. She had been a Rotary exchange student there for exactly one year.

by Pam Whltaker

The Rotary Club of Terrace sponsors one exchange student each year. While Grade 11 Caledonia Senior Secondary student Karen Karu was on her way "down under" to be welcomed by the Rotary Club in Mel- bourne, Australia, a student from West Germany was arriv- ing in Terrace. This student has since returned home. Janewa Osei-Tutu left for Mexico on Monday, Aug. 22, while Maria from Spain, will be disembark- ing at Terrace/Kitimat airport today.

Karen enjoyed a range of ex- periences while she was in Melbourne. She stayed with six different families, seeing first- hand a cross section of family life. She said. that moving from family to family was not a hard- ship for her. "About the only time I wasn't enjoying myself was in January. I had a terrible sunburn and was thinking of skiing in Terrace."

Karen said she did not see the sweeping plains she had imagin- ed orget to the "outback", but did see a sheep farm, a banana plantation, went skiing, panned for gold, and rode a camell She also rode on Puffing Billy, a steam-powered train, trekked golden sandy beaches and swam in the south sea.

One day when when a group that went bushwalking (hiking), a wild kangaroo went hopping across the path. She saw noctur- nal Koala bears in their natural habitat, and different exotic birds such as Rosellas and Kookaburras.

The homes she stayed in were and improve her English while all made of brick, as Australia working in a Japanese-run travel does not enjoy the softwood timbered forests that Canada does. The forests there are main- ly a variety of hardwood eucalyptus.

Most of Karen's host families lived in the Melbourne district of Broadmeadowk. "Despite its name," Karen said, " i t was hil- ly. And when I arrived, it was raining, so I felt quite at home."

Not so when her hosts were driving on the "wrong" side of the road. Although she had expected it, she did find it un- nerving.

The Browns, retired delicates- san owners, were her first family. The Grangers with three children at home were her second.

Karen spent Christmas with the Frys, a newspaper family. Fry was an editor for several associated newspapers in the area. Jimmy Motsei, a South African student, also spent Christmas there.

The hottest part of the year, mid-February to mid-March, was spent at Lunds in Essendon. Karen was grateful that this home had a swimming pool.

The Lawrences were in clothing manufacturing and had two grown daughters and a grown son. A Japanese girl who had once lived with the Law- rences as an exchange student had returned to stay with them

Janewa Osei-Tutu left Terrace Monday for a year in Mexico as a Rotary exchange student. The 17-year-old Cal grad will be attending a community college there and staying with the family of the local Rotary president in San Luis Patosoi, a city of 800,000 north of Mexico City.

"I t ' s exciting, but it makes me a little nervous, too, especially with a different language

agency. The last family Karen resided

with was the Willis family. Mr. Willis was a dental technician. They had a fluffy cat who made Karen feel at home.

Before leaving Australia for B.C., Karen had an opportunity to visit Expo 88 in Brisbane. An exchange student who had previously been in Terrace, Narelle Stubbs, lives at Port MacQuarie, and Karen was able to visit her on the way through the area.

" I was really impressed by the Canadian Pavilion at Expo 88," Karen said. She also enjoyed The Pavilion of Promise, a Canadian structure that had been shipped to Australia from Expo 86.

" I was sad to leave Australia as I have made so many good fr iends," Karen explained. "Someday I would like to go back and work for a year or two or get a university transfer there so I can see them again. Mean- while, it's good to see my friends here and to graduate with them."

When asked what she got the most out of her exchange student experience, Karen replied, "Because of the questions people asked me. I learned about Canadat I became very patriotic."

Back in Terrace, after a year in Australia as a Rotary exchange student, Karen Karu displays a very international- looking jacket.

Exchange student leaves for Mexico there," she told the Terrace responsible for the airfare.

Scholarshipwinners

Review. Osei-Tutu has been studying Spanish with Tirso Morales, but only since June. "I hope to learn Spanish, learn about the country and the people, see how they live. I 'm curious to find out if people here in Terrace are different than in Mexico. ' '

She'll also be teaching other young people she meets and her host family, who have a nine- year-old daughter and a 16-year- old son who will be on a Rotary exchange in Vancouver, about Canada. Improving international understanding is the overall goal.

Rotary clubs provide the room and board and a monthly allowance while the students are

JANEWA OSEI.TUTU: I'm curious to find out if people here in Terrace are dif. ferent than in Mexico.

" I thought it would be neat to live in another country that's quite different from Canada." She thought Mexico would be more interesting than western nations like England or Ger- many, she said. An interview and an orientation session in Vancouver in June followed.

The young woman is no stranger to travel, having seen " a bit of London and France", and she spent a school year with relatives in Ghana, Africa with her brother a number of years ago. Her future plans include university study, probably in the sciences, and more travel - - next time to Australia or southern Europe,

Lots of pavement laid this year The 1988 paving program in

Terrace is the most ambitious in many years. According to Superintendent of Public Works Stew Christensen, the paving portion of this year's program alone is about two and a half times larger than last year and at least as large as all the paving projects completed in the past three years.

Christensen says that in some cases major reconstruction work was necessary to upgrade roads such as Hamer and Tuck, a carry-over from last year's budget, in order to install a proper roadbed. He says that the original work was clone in the 1960's and that the council of the time chose what was probably the best of two options.

With capital available to them, he says, they could have paved a few roads, meaning

many would probably still be gravel, or they could pave a number of roads by using a substandard base and avoiding the major expense of installing an approved base.

According to Christensen, the roads built in this "economical" fashion in the 1960's were good for about 10 to 15 years and many are still in good shape. But a few, like Tuck, Hamer and Halliwell, have settled leaving potholes and an uneven surface that needs to be replaced with a proper roadbed and drainage before being resurfaced.

Christensen says that to date, the west portion of Halliwell has been completed by Terrace Pav- ing and the Lakelse Ave. project at the west approach to the old Skeena bridge has been finished by Kentron Construction. He addes that a small portion of the

Lakelse project, at the corner of Apsley and Lakelse, will be completed in the near future.

He says that work currently being done by Kentron on the Graham, Hamer and Tetrault St. projects should be completed in about two to three weeks but adds that a portion of Braun, between Agar and Haug!and, will have to wait for about another three weeks. He explained that the delay is necessary to allow residents 30 days to object to the project if they wish.

In total, says Christensen, when this year's projects are complete, the city will have spent over $1.3 million - - $280,000 on storm sewer maintenance and improvements, about $700,000 on roadbed reconstruction and approximately $351,000 on pavement, =

W.L. Sturn, principal of Caledonia Senior Secondary School says he's very pleased with the results of the B.C. provincial scholarship examinations released Monday. To qualify for a $1,000.00 scholarship, students had to achieve a total standardized score of at least 1699 in their three best scholarship examination results. The lowest allowable score in any examination was 475. The 11 successful Caledonia graduates are:

David Weismiller (1759) m Biology 12 (612); Chemistry 12 (570); English Literature 12 (536); History 12 (577).

According to Bill Sturn, these results are much better than those of 1986 and 1987 when students won eight and five provincial scholarships respectively. He said much credit goes to the successful recipients and their te~tchers for these excellent results.
