Last Thursday afternoon flying at 300 feet in a heli- copter, Ernie Jamison MLA and Dick Johnston, Minister of Municipal Affairs obser- ved first hand the three areas proposed for annexation to the City of St. Albert.

As reported last week Bill 24, an amendment to the Municipal Government Act, now gives the Minister authority for altering, app- roving or rejecting annexa- tions approved by the Local Authorities Board. ‘‘It was for this reason,’’ said Mr. Jamison, ‘‘that I initiated the helicopter tour, to give the Minister a ‘‘Bird’s Eye’’ view of the lands involved in the Genstar NW Sector annexation (1900 acres), the City of St. Albert annexation SE (4800 acres) and the St. Albert Investments proposal for annexation to the North- east (1700 acres)."’

Also included in the trip was a first-hand view of the

A Bird’s Eye View

Hovering at 300 feet above the City of St. Albert, MLA Ernie Jamison points out on the annexation map the area covered by St. Albert's three annexation proposals to Municipal Affairs Minister Dick Johnston. The three annexation proposals, if approved in total, would increase the size of S.A. by roughly 9000 acres or more than twice the present area of St. Albert. Mr. Jamison also pointed out the Star-Key Mine Site, a 30 year supply of coal for the Inland Cement Plant and the large gravel and sand pits just west of St. Albert (near Villeneuve), which supply the greater Edmonton area including St. Albert. The west by-pass alignment was also pointed out to Mr. Johnston, which if constructed, would alleviate most truck traffic off the trail and much vehicle traffic travelling to the NW part of the province.

Action group against six- lane corridor splitting city

Going to council June 5

An action group from Sturgeon area drew some 65 people to a meeting last Friday night in Vital Grandin School, all of them adamant that there should be no further development of Highway 2 within St. Albert without a ‘proper plan.’’ There was also a very strong concensus that turning the highway into a six-lané major corridor was NOT the way to go. (St. Albert has applied to the government for

- “corridor’’ designation through St. Albert,

which would mean the government would provide 90 percent of the funding).

“A SIX LANE FREEWAY WILL SPLIT THE CITY RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE” said one man, and Chairman Bob Hite said he would absolutely not let his child cross

- the highway. It was pointed out that some children have to cross to go to school, and that accidents were certain to take place, with injury and death to children a definite possibility.

Other major concerns brought out by the citizens were noise and dust control, the fact that ‘spot buying’’ was already taking

place in the Sturgeon residential area by realtors, which should be stopped, and that strip commercial development along the

west side in piece-meal fashion should also be stopped.

As the meeting proceeded it also became clear that the chairman and several other members of the interim executive of the Sturgeon Action Group felt that it was necessary to hire their own lawyer and consultant and establish a trust fund for this purpose. ‘‘We must have expertise on our behalf,’’ said Mr. Hite. ‘‘The city has their planning consultants and experts, and when their consultant comes up with a plan council either rejects or accepts it - WITHOUT any public input. This could happen again, so we have to have our input backed up by a consulting firm. If not we must develop our own plan,”

*‘l was advised that a proper plan costs money,’’ Mr. Hite continued, ‘‘and when we request at a Municipal Planning Commission meeting that we be able to work with MPC - MPC was not willing.”’

Other residents felt that the cost of a proper plan should be the responsibility of the town, ''This corridor would not be desireable in any city,"’ said another man. “It's a big problem - consider the funding. Please Turn to Page 2

District 3 balances budget

The Catholic School Board brought in a budget Monday night which called for a supplementary requisition of $810,797.75, an increase of 28.04% over the figure for 1977 ($633,212.).

Ken Porter, finance and audit committee chairman, said the 1978-79 budget reflected ‘‘a shifting of the financing for education from the government to our parents. The supplementary requisition requested from the City has increased 28.04% over the 1977 actuals whereas the combined Sch- ool Foundation Program fun-

ds and grants from the

government has increased only 4.9% over the 1977 actuals. Our actual increase to the ratepayers was 14.42% said Mr. Porter, the

other 13.62% increase in supplementary requisition (is due to the assessment growth in 1978,"’ he added.

A Catholic system rate- payer whose assessment is $36,000 will be contributing $260.64 to the district by way of taxation. The increase over last year is $32.84.

Earlier this spring the board passed a motion which increased the pupil/teacher ratio to 20.81/1 from 19.67/1 a move largely responsible in making it possible to avoid deficit financing or a cut back in services.

The Board will continue to provide busing to all stud- ents in grades 1 through 12 in St. Albert with no addi- tional charge to parents. Students who attend St. Please Turn to Page 7

MPC hangs tough on local developers

A'St. Albert Optometrist Dr. Don LeDrew who wants to develop an office comm- ercial building near the St. Albert United Church had some tough words for the city Municipal Planning Com- mission meeting May 24.

‘It became clear that Dr. LeDrew was going to have to foot a $30,000 bill for the dedication of a service road leading out to the Trail, a road which is far from being a certainty at this stage.

Concerning this condition for the development, Dr. LeDrew told the commission: “To dedicate a service road is an unfair cost to me and just makes the whole thing out of line ... | would not be against it in the future, but at this time there is nothing definite about a service road."*

He said dedication of the service road at this point

‘makes it difficult to sw- ing.’”

“If 1 give up $30,000, | have to give up another $30,000 just to make it work,"’ he added.

Dr. Le Drew told the commission that considering he thought he was doing something that would benefit St. Albert, there were ‘‘an awful lot of requirements for a developer to get into."’

Municipal Planning Com- mission Chairman Barry Br- eadner had commented earl- ier to Dr. Le Drew: ‘‘As far as a point of no return, I think this is your decision."

When it came time for MPC to make a decision, on the development, Alderman Bill Shields suggested it should be held in abeyance till some of the questions raised had been gone into more thoroughly.

No agreement at District 6

There was no resolution of differences between the ATA and St. Albert Protestant Separate School District 6 at a conciliation meeting held Monday. It now looks doubt- ful if the conciliator will be able to bring the two sides together.

There have been no further steps taken at pre- sent and both sides are awaiting the conciliators report which will come down

within two weeks.

He may recommend an agreement which each side has the option of accepting or rejecting; or he may recom- mend that the teachers and the school board go to arbitration.

It is not likely that either party would be willing to accept binding arbitration but the present course of action could end up that way.

If council can get the province to pay 90 percent, that's a quick solution to the city’s problem. An alternative would cost them more. But we shouldn't have to pay the costs of an alternative plan - those costs should be on the town.”’

CITY STAFF NOT CO-OPERATIVE Jim Nichols, treasurer of the interim

executive was irate at the attitude of the planning and engineering departments at

town hall. ‘‘No information was available ~

and no maps from town hall staff he said. They wouldn't even admit knowledge of any widening of the highway, or the Ball Estate brief. Everyone was very secret- ive.’’ Mr. Nichols added that Mr. Hite was however told by the mayor that six lanes were planned, with nothing to be taken off the east side of the highway.

Mr. Hite stated that there were three or

four recommendations that the city staff didn't ‘‘live with.’ For example, he said, the recommendation from MPC that commercial development on the east side be allowed. Staff felt there wasn't

sufficient typographical information to proceed. There is also a recommendation that nothing be developed within 25 feet of the ravine, but Mr. Hite noted that the city ‘will entertain development proposals."’ “The city has their planners, but we will bring a plan to council also,"’ he said, ‘‘so we can maintain our neighbourhoods.”

**You must have some input from the city,’' said a man in the audience. Mr. Nichols replied that ‘‘we will do that, but the present General Plan will degrade our neighbourhood - and the six lanes are in the General Plan. ‘In that case you have a hell of a problem,’ said the citizen.

_ Council should have told the people about the six-lane plan particularly.

Another man pointed out that there was no way the widening could be done on both sides - the St. Albert Inn is there. **There is no way to iry and fight with $100 donations - council should help us out, and we have to stop commercial development with the Big

STOP COMMERCIAL TILL PLAN READY

“The city wants the easiest, cheapest way,’ said Mr. Nichols, *‘so they start with a medical clinic - if we allow that we have lost our fight. If we can’t get rid of six lanes we can at least get development pleasing to the eye and safe for children - without coal trucks every 15 minutes, starting in 1980, If commercial development is started on the west side we have lost the opportunity to do these things.’’ Mr. Hite noted that ‘‘we did get some input into plans for a discotheque on that side."’

A citizen said the ‘‘only answer is something like the White Mud Freeway, if we must live.by a six-lane road. Another spokesman said zoning changes, such as

the Usher property (where clinic is planned) must be stopped until a proper plan for both sides of the highway is done. Another mentioned the hamburg stand and said a motel had been proposed. If a by-pass is to come that should be taken into consideration in the planning, he added, and in addition the new shopping centre means plans for another river crossing, which would help the people in our area. Meanwhile we will have to go by the highway, with safety a big worry and more access routes are needed. The decision to go six-lanes is certainly not my idea of the right way to go.’ ‘‘There is no damn way we get a six-lane highway - the only city in Alberta to have such"’ said a resident who said he had been here for 18 years. Let's look at a by-pass ‘‘right bloody now.”’

However committee members and others in the audience repeated that by-pass or no by-pass a proper develop- ment of highway 2 within the city must be planned, and that in the meantime all further development must be stopped. ‘*We must get council to consider our requests - we want alternate routes, as well as no further commercial before we get a proper over-all plan. Even with a by-pass we still have problems with the highway emphasized Mr. Hite.

A woman in the audience said she understood that property owners in the immediate vicinity of a planned develop- ment were to be advised in writing - ‘‘l

thought that was city policy,’’ she said. “Why can’t I find out what the plans are for the road back of my home,”’ replied Mr. Nichols - ‘‘it’s no secret that the city has started buying property for the road widening.’’ The chairman observed that ‘‘a developer can get such information, but a citizen can't.”

CONSULTANT DIDN'T GO TO PEOPLE

Another woman said that the consultants hired to do the Ball Estate brief definitely did not consult with the people involved in the area, A man who said he was in the construction field stated that a berm for six lanes would have to be too big. ‘‘In 10 years this highway will have to be looked at again, and while we all agree a by-pass is needed, we will still have a prime road through the middle of our town."*

**But not six lanes’’ interjected a member of the audience. Another citizen said he had clocked trucks at 50 miles per hour at the Dairy Queen. We must find some way to slow trucks down the hill, he said - and trucks would use a by-pass if built. It was confirmed for another citizen that the town has responsibility for development of the highway within its boundaries.

Ex-mayor Dick Plain and present Alderman Bill Shields, sitting together at the back were asked to speak. Mr. Shields was,'‘concerned"’ that staff did not supply information and said he could arrange to

have staff people meet with the group, and |

that the mayor and city manager had indicated to him that a representative could

be assigned to this project if needed.

A citizen said that Mayor Plain had held a highway discussion meeting open to an audience, and ‘‘we were told no highway development would occur except commer cial - and that the city was planning a by-pass. ‘This contradicts everything we have heard tonight,’’ he said, noting also that west side property owners of course do not want the land to sit idle.

It was suggested that the west side could be developed as a proper industrial park - ‘*We just can't keep on as it is - there are so many entrances and exits required,”’ said the citizen. 2

A woman noted that a group on the west side did get a lawyer - let us all work together she said. Mr. Hite said that lawyer was engaged just for the Cuts property proposal - but we will join forces with all who are interested.

Mr. Plain said the Ball Estate Brief was advertised for discussion at a public

hearing, and input invited. A suggestion that the west side be park or residential was something we couldn't afford, since it is owned by private owners, and we stayed with commercial, trying to make it compatible as part of an on-going process As it stands both an east and west by-pass are there (in the General Plan) he said, but a freeway into the heart of Edmonton is out. He suggested the group work with the city planning staff.

But Chairman Hite warned that ‘‘we still need our people to bring up alternatives and we must have expertise on our side,"

It was decided that the whole group should make every effort to be at the June 5 Council meeting to present their case and ask for time before any further develop- ment takes place. Prior to that another meeting for the Sturgeon Action Group was set for Thursday, June 1 at Vital Grandin School, with advice notices to be sent to people on both sides of the highway.

Calahoo resident Al Majeau dies in vehicle accident

Father Roche officiated at prayers Tuesday evening in St. Catherine's Church at Calahoo for Alan (Big Al) Richard Majeau who died in a vehicle accident at 10:30 Friday evening on secondary road 635, near Calahoo. He was 28 years old.

Mass of Resurrection was held in St. Albert Roman Catholic Church on Wed- nesday, May 31, conducted by Rev. Anthony Sebastian O.F.M. Interment followed in the church cemetery.

With Mr. Majeau were his wife Lynn and daughter Tammy who were taken to hospital by ambulance. The

ambulance was also in an accident, being struck by a vehicle travelling on the wrong side of the road, Fortunately both Lynn and Tammy are doing well. Lynn is on crutches but making good progress and Tammy who suffered a pelvis injury is doing very well.

Mr. Majeau is survived by his wife Lynn, son Rodney and daughter Tammy; his mother Mrs. Hanna (Dolly) Majeau, a brother, Howard, of Dawson Creek, and two sisters Eleanor Reynolds of Morinville and Vivian Flah- erty of Dawson Creek. He was predeceased by his

Protestant board sets school year

Despite grumblings from an ATA representative over the pre-Labour Day start to the 1978-79 school year and despite some concern that students were being accord- ed the lowest priority in determining the new school year Board members at last approved the 1978-79 school year.

Teachers will be at work August 31, 1978 to accept registrations and begin pre- paring for the new year, which will include a two- week break at Christmas.

An ATA rep, Earl Ayre, was at the meeting, held May 24, apparently to listen to the proceedings only and report back to the Economic Policy Committee, a teacher group which includes their negotiating committee.

Instead, he chose to speak during time allotted on the agenda to the EPC. He said the teachers were disturbed and their morale was low, largely due to the adversial approach taken during con- tract talks between the Board and the ATA. They were particularly unhappy with the fact the Board was look- ing at an earlier start to the school year, a change which the ATA feels should not be considered while negotia- tions are on-going. The Board doesn’t accept that the school year is an item to be negotiated.

Later in the, meeting when the motion to approve the school year was on the table, Trustee Wes Penner said he was disappointed that Mr. Ayre chose to make his

( \

comments, especially in light of the fact the Board had delayed setting the school year in an effort to be democratic and gather as much input as possible. He said that if both sides refrained from hurling com-

ments like these it would ease the adversarial climate.

Mr. Ayre then told Board members that the early start was causing scheduling pro- blems for teachers who had planned their holidays based on the school year set out in a

handbook from 1977-78. Board Chairman Ernie Wynychuk told Mr. Ayre that there must be give and take from both sides. From his manner it was clear he felt the School Board had done Please Turn to Page 8

MPC has their bias

showing - developer

‘Somebody should tell the members of the Municipal Planning Commission that their bias is showing"’ a discouraged Joe Sheckter told the Gazette following the meeting held May 24.

Mr. Sheckter and his business manager Wayne Quinn came out to the meeting, having received an agenda by mail. Although his shopping centre proposal for the area bounded by Hebert Road and the highway was the only item brought for- ward from the previous MPC meeting, it was placed last on the agenda. For his time making the trip Mr. Sheckter got the few seconds it took for Alderman Shields to move the item be tabled - get this - ‘‘for further study.” After seven years, said a disheartened Joe. It was decided before we ever arrived at the meeting.

Last time I came out to MPC - two weeks earlier, said Mr. Sheckter, I wasin the middle of the agenda, but

What really frosted him was the fact that council recently passed a proposal for a large (250,000 square feet) shopping centre across

Exciting meeting planned for aid to the handicapped

A knowledgeable and ex- perienced person, Florence McKee, will be guest speak- er at a June 8 meeting of the utmost importance for all residents of St. Albert who have handicapped family members. The meeting will be held in the Seniors Centre, across from the Legion Hall at 7:30 p.m.

Mrs. McKee has had a long involvement working with handicapped people in the Strathcona Association. She also worked with depen- dent handicapped people in getting the Activities Centre

built. This project followed the typical pattern, Mrs. McKee told the Gazette. It began with a few people getting together in some- body's basement and just kept going until the job was done.

Florence also has ex- perience in organizing asso- ciations for the handicapped and in staffing centres. At present she is writing a book, based on interviews with 98 parents of severely handi- capped children.

Rodeo grounds is a beehive of activity

St. Albert Kinsmen are up to their ears in work down on Riel Drive. If the rain we've been getting lately doesn’t ease up some members are threatening to end it all by jumping into the Sturgeon River.

If your looking for ways to spend your evenings and weekends during the next three weeks, they sure could use a hand in the rush to get set up for Rodeo 117, June 16, 17 and 18.

They would also like to suggest that people refrain from dumping their garbage on their new Chuckwagon Track, After all its only a few more feet to the landfill site.

The pads for the bleachers have been poured and plans are set for putting the stands are set for putting up the stands on the weekend. Seating will be for 4,500 spectators at the biggest and most exciting rodeo ever to come to St. Albert.

So far cash donations have come in from Carma De- velopers, LBH Home Im- provement Centres, Gary Frost - Architect, Fasco Rentals and the Kinette Club.

Carma and Standard Gen- eral Construction have do- nated about 5,000 yards of black dirt each and Standard General brought down two,

scrapers, a grader, two trucks and gravel for the entrance to the grounds.

Calgary Power used their own equipment to erect power poles free of charge and Stanley and Associates did the surveying.

The City, and in particular, Bob Byron and Don Corri- gan, have provided valuable co-operation.

There's still an incredible amount of work to be done but, if the support continues

as it has to this point, St Albert will definitely be treated to a great rodeo,

And don't forget the Gymkhana. The Kinsmen expect over 100 entries in the event to be held Saturday and Sunday in the arena on Perron Street.

Four finalists will be chosen in the Kinsmen Rodeo Queen contest at a gathering in the Kinsmen Centre on Larose Drive tonight at 8 p.m.

Auxiliary tea

gets novel opening

When the president of the Ladies Auxiliary to the Royal Canadian Legion called upon The Branch Padre, Len Musto to open their Spring Tea on Sunday, she didn't know what she was in for.

First Rev. Musto called upon Vern Tompkins, past president of the Legion to blow up a balloon. Next he asked the convenor of the tea, Joanne Cockwill to tie the balloon, Finally he placed it on a chair and asked the Auxiliary President, Shirley Sorsdahl, to sit down on the chair. Firmly grasping the padre’s arm Shirley bravely sat down and opened the tea with a Bang! (It should be noted that President Ron Bull missed this opening, not being on hand at the proper time. However he was ob- served minutes afterwards carrying some large jars of pickles into the kitchen - no doubt filling in where there was need, as usual).

Special guests of the Auxiliary, and pouring tea were Kay Rossiter, district auxiliary commander and Shirley Jamison; Legion Dis- trict Commander Percy Ros- siter and Wally Franks, zone commander (the men ge very adeptly, thank you}? Phyliss McMann, president of Kingsway Auxiliary, Nell Patton, president of Nor- wood, Bernadette Vaugeois, St. Albert Mother of the Year, and Elli Bull, wife of the Legion President, Marie Eschak, Past President of the Auxiliary and June Kendel, past past President and Life Member.

As usual everything was beautifully arranged with gleaming silver candles and gorgeous fresh flowers on the tea table, and lovely large corsages for the pour- ers, plus charming service to the tables by auxiliary members.

While the attendance was thought to be slightly down - and the weather was far from co-operative Mrs. Sorsdahl felt it was definitely succ- essful and the bazaar items, baked goods and plant sale all went well.

Door prizes were won by Laurie Johnson, a pressure cooker and little Miss Winkl- meier, a house plant. Floral arrangements were won by June Kendel and Addie Webb, the latter being

donated by the new florist shop on Grosvenor Boule-

busy bees enrol

Tuesday, May 23 was a very exciting enrollment day for 20 girls who are charter members in the 4th St. Albert Busy Bee Hive. A part of the Girl Guide Movement, the second Hive in the Lacombe Park area began April 25 and meets Tuesdays at 4 p.m. in Bertha Kennedy School.

The purpose of the group is to promote happiness, helpfulness, health and a love of nature in girls aged five to seven years. To qualify for enrollment each girl is required to attend four meetings and know and un- derstand their motto and promise.

Each girl was presented with badges and a certificate of enrollment by their lea-

ders. Commissioner Jeffares presented scarves and heard the promise and motto of: Michelle Merchant, Kelly Jean Swain, Candice Leibel, Treena Alspach, Suzanne Yashiw, Christine Herfst, Tonya Durkin, La Dawn MacDonald, Catherine Lund, Loralee Brockmeyer, Darcie Stein, Karri Rolofs, Carolyn Rohaly, Melanie Friesacher, Kerry Mclimoyle, Sara Wat- erton, Trina Lawrence, Sh- elly Hockett, Shannon Stein, and Susan Parks.

Folks on Alcott plan street party

What better way to meet your new neighbours than getting together for a party? The folks on Alcott Crescent will be barbecuing and partying Friday, June 16 on the street and in driveways in an all out effort to get to know each other better.

The idea came to Alcott with the arrival of Carol and Gary Shedeck from Winni- peg last year. The Shedeck’s had taken part in a similar get-together in that city and Carol mentioned to her neighbours that it might be a

good idea to try it on Alcott Crescent.

A poll was taken to determine interest and the response was unanimously in favour of going ahead.

The women collected $2.50 per household to cover the cost of communal foods like salads and buns and or- ganized one driveway and garage as a beer garden and focal point of the barbecuing. Families provide their own meat and alcoholic refresh- ments. Coca-Cola is provi- ding soft drinks at wholesale.

NOW AVAILABLE IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD

The group acquired a permit from the City and will be roping off the crescent for the evening.

Several activities are plan- ned for the children and adults including hula hoop contests, tug-of-wars, three- legged races, volleyball and spot dances. There will also be a stereo sound system. Prizes donated by St. Albert businesses will be awarded to winners.

Sounds like a heck of an idea!

If you want to see local residents genuinely trying to improve the quality of life in St. Albert go green at the gills with frustration, the Municipal Planning Commission is the place to watch it. The Gazette has been covering this clinically-run exercise in what sometimes amounts to cynicism and near insults, for nearly three years.

In effect it could be said that the MPC has gone on a course which subtly discriminates against the very people it seeks to represent.

Jn 1986 those elected members who serve on both MPC and St. Albert Council will be going on the campaign trail seeking votes and telling the people how well they have “served” them in the past, and how they would like to do so in the future. However it can be seen that the municipal government has lost contact with the people over the past three years.

A recent MPC meeting had before it three applicants who were trying to improve the quality of life in St. Albert. One wanted to develop a office commercial centre and suddenly found that he, not the city, would have to find $35,000 for road access to the site, which for the present is not essential. Those applying for a dance studio and athletic centre left glum because they, not the city, would have to spend more than $100,000 for lot excavation and retainer wall. They were also told that their building drawings were more suited to Riel Drive Industrial Park than in St. Albert's downtown core, where the planner’s view of asthetics would not be well served.

Potential developer of a shopping centre in St. Albert's south end is in for more studies of alternatives - this after seven years of the same diet. Mr. Sheckter should have the number 31 on his back (like the last day of the month) since the MPC usually manages to keep him last on the agenda. Then it’s “times up” and goodbye again Joe.

The most recent case of citizens versus MPC was forcibly brought out at a public meeting of a citizens action group held last Friday evening. The group is strongly opposed to a six-lane highway splitting the town. As emphasized by the chairman and others, ordinary citizens have reached the conclusion that they have to retain their own experts to fight the experts at city hall. City consultants on the Ball Estate Brief did not consult the citizens involved, it was pointed out at the meeting.

While the city was having trouble getting more than a handful of people out to public hearings on the transportation studies and the general plan, a meeting of citizens from the Forest Lawn area was able to attract 350 to a public meeting advertised for the Community Hall on the Shell property in November 1976. In fact the former council left their regular meeting early to get to

neighbor to the south, he could see the whole Cana- dian defence establishment under the carpet, whether it was nuclear or not.

This could possibly explain the woeful state of Canada’s armed forces, with only

perimenting with the idea that national security is not necessarily equated with military strength.

Canada’s defence forces re- present Federal Government tokenism in the matter of

the hall and find out what the people were thinking.

Which leads us to the conclusion that the former mayor actually intimidated a great many people with his penchant for hiring a barrage of experts who could often turn aside citizen objections rather easily, by citing figures and “expert” opinions. But after all who knows better than ordinary residents what they want for their neighbourhoods and their city?

Under the former council, which included Aldermen Breadner, Throndson and Smith, the Recreation Board, Police Commission and PSS Committee were replaced by one Community Advisory Board, with citizens invited to apply, submitting “qualifications”. Isn't any interested citizen acceptable?

Most of the current problems concerning residents, including also the concerns over loss of open space and proliferation of multiple density in Grandin Park, were inherited by the new council, whose hands are tied in these areas. However a new attitude in dealing with future matters of concern to residents will be a blessing.

The residents are aroused and prepared to join forces, put up money, and dig in their heels to protect the quality of their neighbourhoods, and to have a say in municipal planning. General Plan not withstanding, they want a “proper plan” with their contributions included, before any further developed proceeds on Highway 2 withir the city.

Why was the Cuts proposal turned down?

In a recent issue of your valuable paper, a letter was published from Mrs. Ethel Cuts, headed ‘A Dream Destroyed’. She very eloquently expressed her disappointment at the refusal of the municipal planning commission to grant permission for the erection of a condominium on her property to house senior citizens.

This was a project very dear to the heart of the late Dr. Bill Cuts, as | know from frequently hearing him discuss it, and | would have thought would have been a most suitable and useful monument, or rather memorial, to the memory of one who gave so much and so freely of his time and energy to our community.

Why was it turned down? Was there no need for such a facility? | believe if the planning commission held this as a reason, it would be easy to refute it. Being past the age of retirement myself, | know many friends and acquaintances who woulld be happy to spend their declining years in such beautiful and peaceful surroundings. My own parents lived happily under those same trees until they passed on, and loved every one of them. It was

.- A glaring error in judgement

a battle to be allowed to take down the dead ones!

lf there is a demonstrable need, it would indeed be interesting to know what powerful consideration induced the MPC to turn thumbs down on such a beneficial and eminently suitable plan. That they would bow to the selfish prejudice of a handful of nearby residents, | can hardly credit. Surely their responsibility must be to work for the greatest benefit to the community as a whole, without fear or favour. Perhaps if enough responsible citizens acted together, they might be persuaded to reconsider, or at least give a reasonable and valid explanation for such a remarkable and glaring error of judgement. The Commission, | suppose, is not responsible to the ratepayers but

To The Editor y

certainly the council is.

As for the seven so called ‘neighbours’, whose protests gave the board an excuse to turn the project down, these people surprise me. After all, if they are fortunate, they will eventually become senior citizens themselves. Is the sight and presence of senior citizens in their neighbourhood so objectionable because it might force them to think of their own future? Or do they fear wild parties and vandalism? Perhaps they are looking at the wrong end of the life span.

Surely the planning board must have some less frivolous reason than these people's objection, to turn down a generous offer that holds promise of so much potential advantage to our whole community.

If so, for the sake of their own credibility, they should declare it.

W. G. Bocock, St. Albert.

Grandin becoming a concrete jungle

Given the challenge of scatterbraining the word “GREEN,” many thoughts would arise. Color, envy, nature, too much pizza, etc. are some of the ideas that could be expressed. The one most likely to appear in the minds of the majority of St. Albert's decision makers is $$SHSH$H$HS.

This becomes more and more obvious as Mother Nature’s “greenery” gives way to the concrete jungle in St. Albert.

Five years ago one was impressed with the spaciousness and abundance of greenery in areas such as Grandin Park. At the present time there is one almost completed small shopping facility on Grosvenor Blvd. being added to the row housing put up a couple of years ago. (This was once a nice play area).

Another shopping facility is planned for Grandin Road. Yet another will appear very soon at the west end of Gainsborough Avenue. Our planners have ignored a petition to stop this latter from happening. Are we so desperate for “quick” purchases that we cannot take the trip to the already existing facilities?

Can anyone justify three such facilities all within one and a half miles of each other? Have the planners given consideration to the opinions of persons who would facilitate these centres or do they presume to know what is best for us?

Our sister city Edmonton could serve as an example to the fathers of St. Albert. In the high density area of Oliver, on 121 Street and 102 Avenue a block of old homes was torn down and a beautiful, well planned park is going in.

If valuable land exists in city centre, this area could be on the top of the list. This park is only

three blocks from an already existing, highly imaginative playground.

It is time someone got around to listening to the priorities of the people in this city and perhaps more pressure should be applied to see that this happens. If we do not take an interest now we may be joined in the Tot Lot in

Gordon Crescent one day by ex-city officials wondering “where we all went wrong.”

Highway safety suggestion

There exists, within the borders of the City of St. Albert on highway #2, a major traffic safety hazard in the northern approach to St. Anne Street traffic light. Reaction time is short, especially in the icy winter months, due to the proximity of the traffic lights to the bottom of the rather steep descent of the hill for all northbound traffic.

In order to avoid possible future tragedy to the citizens of St. Albert, or those passing through, | would like to propose the following as a possible solution. That an amber flashing light

be installed prior to the crest of the hill indicating to all approaching traffic “PREPARE TO STOP WHEN AMBER LIGHTS ARE FLASHING" as is provided in other centres with similar blind spots.

| hope that those responsible for such provisions give this suggestion serious consid- eration.

The issue of the devel- opment will go before council and Dr. Le Drew was to be given the chance to look again at the cost factors involved,

IN OTHER MPC BUSIN- ESS, Gladys Smith and Alma Hughes from the St. Albert School of Dancing ran up against it with their proposal for a Dance Studio and Athletic Club at S Perron Street.

Ms. Hughes told the com- mission they were unaware they had to build on the four lots.

Developing all four lots could slap the developers with an extra $75,000, if things like parking require- ments were taken into con- sideration.

A sharp cut came from City Planner Wayne Gordon who told the developers their

project was ‘‘more appro- priate for the Riel Industrial Park than the downtown."' Although he qualified this remark later, as MPC dis- cussed the buildings design and materials.

The long and the short of it was that council will get a recommendation from MPC not to support the dev- eloper’s proposal.

Mr. Gordon concluded that if others were to be offered the property, they should be given the chance of an alternate plan, ‘‘or we talk with others who can handle the problem.”

AN UNEXPECTED RAY of hope relieved seven years of frustration for landowner Joe Sheckter who has been trying to develop some lands in south Akinsdale as a large shopping centre.

MPC decided that staff will be asked to develop in consultation with Mr, Sheck- ter a list of the preferred land

uses for South Akinsdale, for the consideration of MPC.

This decision seems partly due to an earlier MPC meeting with consultant lan Geddes who told MPC that delays on the south Akins- dale plan had virtually ruined Mr. Sheckter’s credibility in the marketplace.

Mayor Ron Harvey supp- orted the MPC decision and said he would like to see the site developed and see if a solution could be found.

Textbook rental in all divisions has also been in- creased slightly to bring in another $1,350,

Construction of new sch- ools in the recent past has resulted in an unsupported (not covered by the Province) debt service charge of approximately $112,000 whi- ch will appear in the budget each year for 25 years, New school construction could, of course, increase this figure. The total debt services in the 1978-79 budget amount to $537,464 of which the Pro- vince contributes approxi- mately $425,000.

Salary expenditures for the 1978-79 year which total $2,825,891 show an increase of about six percent over last year. At present the Board has not settled with the ATA

contracts for 1978-79 and is awaiting a date for con- ciliation. Should the teachers eventually settle for a figure

above the six percent pro- vincial guideline (and they would if they are successful in gaining parity with tea- chers in the Edmonton Public

System) the Board would be forced into a deficit position and taxpayers would pick up the difference in the future.

Trustee Gary Hodgins said he didn’t like being on this merry-go-round (in reference to the several times the school year had been dis- cussed and delayed). He said the children were being put at the lower echelon of priorities and that the best alternative for them would have been the original year proposed by Superintendent Elmer Gish. The earlier proposal was based on a 200 day school year, 190 of which would be instructional, Sch- ool opening day would have been Monday, August 28, 1978. The new year, app- roved by the Board is based on 197 days, including 189 instructional. Both years provide for a two week Christmas break but the high school will lose one day at the end of each semester which would have been used for closing functions.

Mr. Gish had earlier stated

that there had been some concern shown by members of the Paul Kane teaching staff that the two-week break for Christmas would nega- tively effect the learning process for students on the semester system.

Mr. Hodgins commented, ‘we want to be co-operative with the teachers but we come in public and are accused of being unco-op- erative by the ATA. Now we are putting high school students in a bad position.”’ He said he would support the superintendent's latest re- commendation but he sus- pected Mr. Gish would still prefer the 200 day year. He hoped that the Board would be more responsible next year.

He then added, ‘We're sitting here recommending a negative school year for high school students. It concerns me."’

Trustee Shirley McCaffery asked the superintendent if students would benefit from the two week Christmas vacation and Mr. Gish re-

plied that it wouldn't. ‘‘In that case,’’ said Trustee McCaffery, ‘I won't support the school year. I can't understand why Gary can support it after he put the other case so well. The needs of the students should come first.”’

Mr. Gish told Board members that other districts were going with the two week Christmas break and that he decided District 6 should try it and evaluate it. He said his current recom- mendation was sincere.

The Board passed the 1978-79 school year with Trustee McCaffery in oppo- sition.

Registration for all stu- dents will be August 31, 1978 instead of the Monday, September 4 (the ATA’s preference). The first day of regular classes will be Tuesday, September 5, 1978. All grades will receive a two-week break at Christ- mas.

Continued From Page 3 that,’’ he added - ‘‘that centre will require a left hand turn off the highway. They don't own a quarter of the land I do and have neither proper access or parking space. I just can’t under- stand it, unless it is straight bias on their part.”

Meanwhile his taxes went up three thousand percent, from $400 to $12,000. And to comply with the city’s request he has invested $300,000 in services.

All I am asking council to do is simply zone the property, said Joe. Then they can give us their guidelines for development. But they do it backwards and ask us to provide aesthetics. How can we plan aesthetics when we don’t know whether our property will be zoned for a hotel or a food store? Let alone whatever the planner thinks is appropriate.

People like Eyla Rogers, Jo Nielsen, Ron Yeates, Helen Durand, Gail MclIndoe and Kathleen Hi- ckey have been doing the spade work to get a St. Albert Association started since last November.

At the June 8 meeting, to be chaired by Charles Gale of the Community Services De- partment, bylaws will be presented for passing and an election of officers will be held. At the close of the meeting coffee will be served and there will be ample time provided for questions from all interested people.

The Steering Committee formed in St. Albert is unique, in that from the outset it has planned that the whole field of handicapped services has been taken in - physical, mental, hearing or vision impaired, from par- tially to seriously handicap- ped people.

The committee is well aware and wants to make the community aware of the kind of support, both monetary and physical that families need in caring for handi- capped members in their homes.

Parents are also in need of support and counselling. Families with handicapped members can become insular and withdrawn without com- munity support, including emotional support. Help is also needed in getting necessary additions for pub- lic buildings to enable

more logical, but the aca- demic aldermen seem to enjoy playing with somebody else’s destiny. Competence is lacking in the engineering and planning departments and common sense is lacking on council said Mr. Sheckter,

*‘And council expresses worry about the 94 - 6 percent ratio of residential tax base compared to comm ercial-industrial. I simply don’t understand it.”’

It is cold comfort indeed by Mr. Sheckter, like others, is well aware that there is more than one developer in the region who ‘‘wouldn't touch St. Albert with a 10 foot pole.”

them. For example, it was pointed out the swimming pool at Leduc is being planned from the beginning with the needs of the handi- capped in mind. Shopping centre planning can also be done to include these fea- tures, but the handicapped can't get such designs accomplished unless they have solid community supp- ort.

An Association also serves as an excellent contact point for new people with handi- caps coming into the city.

The Steering Committee is asking all handicapped fam- ilies to be represented at the June 8 meeting in the Senior Citizens Centre at 7:30 p.m.

Who knows? Perhaps some day the handicapped will have a centre in St. Albert too.

Catholic School Trustee, Ken Porter, was glad to see he is making some headway with pet control on schoo! grounds. Mr. Porter initiated a Board request that the City pass a bylaw which would force animal owners to be responsible for the actions of their pets while on public property. The request fizzled out on the first attempt but Ken was determined. He had District 3 administration re- request some action. At Monday's regular Board meeting a letter from City Clerk, Fiona Daniels, in- formed trustees that the City is presently preparing the bylaw. More proof that ‘a squeaking wheel gets more grease’.

When the lunatic fringe joins forces with the craven cowards, the community is the injured party. This sad truism was proven once again at Lions Park recently. A charred picnic table gives black testimony to the moral poverty of a pyromania, while the cookhouse is tribute to the lack of imagination in our local writers of graffiti. In the photo inset, shards of glass, remnants of a beer drinkers’ rampage, paint a depressing picture of local excesses. Isn't it a pity these “artistes” don't have the courage to sign their work!

Meeting in Edmonton re- cently with Education Mini- ster Julian Koziak, repre- sentatives of The Alberta Teachers’ Association ex- pressed a number of con- cerns regarding curriculum changes in the past year.

Presenting a brief for the ATA were president K. M. (Mac) Kryzanowski, vice- presidents Doug Trace and Chuck Rose, past president Halvar Jonson, executive secretary Bernie Keeler, and associate executive secretary Don Corse.

In the brief the association commended the government for the quality of the curri- culum changes, which it said have answered some of the expressed concerns of tea- chers and have enhanced the quality of the schools’ educational offering.

However, the ATA noted, there are a number of concerns: the rate of change is faster than it needs to be or should be, as a result of

which there is insufficient provision for required in- service training and teaching materials; there is increasing restriction on the methods teachers may use; and some of the new courses mandate the use of most or all of the time available for the course, making it difficult for téach- ers to pay adequate attention to individual differences and local needs.

The association brief also included the ATA response to Alberta Education and Diploma Requirements (the Harder paper) and resolu- tions approved at the Annual Representative Assembly in March,

Among the issues dis- cussed were: a request for more emphasis on environ- mental education; an ex- pression of concern that a policy asking for teachers to receive copies of all reports on their professional perfor- mance has been approved six

times now without govern- ment response; a request that the government take action to discourage large class sizes; and an appeal for increased provision of pro grams for the detection, diagnosis, and remediation of learning disabilities in young children.

The association further asked that the government conduct studies on two topics: 1) the possible sig nificant differences in edu cational opportunities be tween city and rural schools, and 2) the increasing serious problem of alcohol consump tion by school-age children

In addition, an amendment to The School Act proposed which would pro vide a teacheft with the right to inspect any file kept on him or her by an employer and that such a file be indexed as to its contents and their origins.

ATA “pleased” with province

The following is a state- ment by ATA president K. M. Kryzanowski regarding The Goals of Basic Education for Alberta, which were app- roved in the Legislature on May 1S.

The Alberta Teachers’ As- sociation is very pleased that the government of Alberta, in keeping with its emphasis on education as a priority, has taken a positive step in the passage this week of the Goals of Basic Education for Alberta. We commend the government for the time and effort it provided for these deliberations to produce a clearly defined direction for education in the province. Furthermore, the Associa- tion is appreciative of the fact that the government made a commitment to obtaining public input by introducing the goals statement during the fall sitting of the Legis- lature and allowing it to be held over until now in the spring sitting.

ATA policy states that “the setting of the broad aims of education is the responsibility of society."’ Therefore the Association welcomes this action by our elected legislators as an activity appropriate to their

roles as spokesmen for so- ciety. We were pleased to note the positive attitude toward the work of teachers and the schools that was evident in the recent debate.

Schools for too long have been required to overextend their responsibilities into areas given up by parents, the community, and the ch- urch. Asa result, teachers at times have become the scapegoats for many societal problems. The ATA finds it encouraging that the goals statement apparently recog- nizes this difficulty while at the same time indicating support for the areas which have been receiving the greatest emphasis in school programs. This represents a vindication of the role sch- ools have been attempting to fulfill in Alberta.

We are in a period of close examination of the purposes and values of education. With the goals of education in Alberta being more clearly defined by the government, teachers may now get on with the job of using their expertise to translate these broad guidelines into specific teaching stragegies which will meet the expectations of society.

THE END, CAPITOL SQUARE, EDMONTON By Jim McIntyre

Backed up with a brilliant script, Burt Reynolds has directed and taken part in one of the finest comedies I’ve seen since the George Burns movie ‘‘Oh God!"’

He takes the part of a man who is given a death sentence by his doctor, having but a short time to go with a fatal blood disease.

Reynold’s mind flips over on its morbid side; he starts weeping uncontrollably in the elevator, begins to follow funeral corteges with no care for his own safety, and has an

uproarious session in the confessional with an inexperienced

priest, his first for 22 years.

Actually Reynolds manages to remain deadpan

Aboriginal art show

opens June 3

For the first time, Ed monton and area residents will be able to learn about the lifestyle of the first Aus- tralians - the Aborigines through their art. This major new exhibit, sponsored by Alberta Culture and Festival ‘78, features more than 200 aboriginal weapons, carv- ings, weavings and paintings plus photographic documen- tation. The show will be at the Proyincial Museum from June 3 to August 13,

The exhibit looks beyond the outward primitive app- earance of a simple race of hunters, into the complex system of aboriginal beliefs, social organization, art, edu- cation and the working re- lationships between these elements.

The culture and art of the Australian Aborigine became rich and highly developed. This exhibit shows that economic, social, psycholo- gical and individual security was provided for both the weak and the able. Humor, art, dignity and responsible leadership were all valued. High efficient procedures were developed to educate the young. The past, present and future, known and un- known were bound together in belief expressed in song, dance and decorative arts.

As late as 1965 a few

Aborigine tribes had never seen a white person, Some of their paintings in the show illustrate their legends, and are a direct message from a stone-age people with a heritage of the land that goes back 40,000 years.

For the Australian Abor- igine, art was a part of both daily life and religious ritual, Even the simplest boom- erang, shield, spear, water carrier or household. utensil was symbolically decorated. In dry, sandy country, the

throughout the film, staying cleverly aloof from the fast dialogue and the insanely humourous sequences that the movie theme provides.

Apart from the more boring sequences when he tries to catch up for lost time with his many girl friends, and tie up loose ends with his family, there is plenty to keep you laughing. (So this movie is well worth a trip from your comfortable pad in St. Albert).

The movie really explodes into life after Reynolds has botched a suicide attempt and finds himself in the nuthouse regaled by the mating call of a black grouse from one of the inmates and the paranoid delusions of Dom DeLuise.

DeLuise is really the piece de resistance of this delightful poke into the taboo area of pre-death; fighting his own battle out loud with two divergent personalities and trying to help

ground itself provided a medium for artistic expres- sion and story-telling. Con- struction of large ground paintings often involved as many as 30 Aborigines.

Other interesting areas of the exhibit are the totem pole carvings by the people in jungle areas and religious paintings done on eucalyptus bark.

The Museum is open seven days a week, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Admission is free.

Hotel” has been very well received by her many fans.

An added attraction will be the performance of the Goose Creek Symphony, appearing as part of the evenings entertainment.

$7, $8 and $9 tickets are on sale at all Exhibition outlets, the Coliseum box office, all Edmonton Wood- ward stores, the Bonnie Doon Mall and HUB Mall at the University of Alber ta. Cost of the tickets include admission to the Exhibition Grounds for Kl ondike Days

The players and stage hands were joined by the audience showing appreciation to Cameron Ross. Cameron was the director of the Paul Kane production of Matchmaker, which played May 25 - 27. It was an excellent play.

Reynolds finish himself off, this combination is a winner for laughs.

Somehow Reynolds learns that life, no matter how much you have left to live, is the sweetest thing to hold on to. But he only comes to this stage after the final suicide attempt when he puts out to sea hopefully to drown.

His drowning attempt sees him break surface screaming I want to live, and desperately asking God to give him strength to reach the shore.

The Good Lord grants the request and the movie ends well with more comedy between DeLuise and Reynolds.

A great show and very cheering amid the sudden gloomy news from the UN and the NATO summit that our days may be numbered on this planet if the superpowers don’t stop playing soldiers with each other.

MORRO: delete Alphonso Johnson and Don Sebesky; add Hubert Laws - bass flute, piccolo; John Campo - bas- soon and Ralph MacDonald - percussion. YOU CAN’T GO HOME AGAIN: Chet Baker - trumpet; Paul Desmond - alto sax; Kenny Barron - electric piano; Ron Carter - acoustic bass; Tony Williams - drums and Don Sebesky - electric piano.

Don Sebesky was the big hand behind ‘‘You Can't Go Home Again'’ producing, arranging and conducting the excellent musical talent, which is on this disc. While Sebesky undoubtedly aided Baker considerably on Chet’s comeback album, he is also the cause of it’s failings. Basically this is a good record and has some very solid music, but the back- ground is too overpowering on most of the tracks and clutters the quality with an overabundance of sound. Mind you, the solo efforts are excellent.

**Love For Sale,’’ a Cole Porter tune starts off the album and contains some great music, but the com- plicated background reduces

its appeal. John Scofield plays a mean guitar and is the feature of this cut. Tony Williams is at his level best here and throughout the album, but is on the edge of being a little overexuberant at times. Alphonso Johnson plays a mooged electric bass, which is different, yet only a foil for the craftsmanship of Ron Carter on acoustic bass. Michael Brecker throws in some good licks on tenor sax.

Ed Bud Powell’s number, “Un Poco Loco,”’ finishes off the first side and adds Hubert Laws on flute, which doesn't really add much to this tune. Chet lays down a solid solo on this track, while Brecker fills in with some heavy sax work. Scofield is outstanding. The. backgr- ound again consumes the up-front sound, often coming out just short of noise with some good licks escaping from it.

The title track is a Sebesky creation and is easily the best total performance on the album. Sebesky seems to do a much better job on his own material. There is no over- bearing background and Chet is able to blow his strongest. Paul Desmond adds his usual brilliant touch on alto sax. He appears on this one track only as his failing strength diminished. Four months later, Paul died of lung cancer, a great loss to the world of jazz.

‘*El Morro," originally “The Rape of El Morro,"’ is another Sebesky composition and finishes off the album. The background is subor- dinated making this cut definitely listenable. Michael Brecker puts out his best for this tune. Hubert Laws appears again, this time on bass flute and piccolo, Per- cussionist Ralph MacDonald backs this arrangements with some effective highlights.

I rate this album as ‘‘three ears,’’ playable but not something you will listen to all that often, it will wind up in the middle of your record

FURTHER NOTES

I came across an album, “Carnegie Hall Concert (vol- ume one),’’ which brings Gerry Mulligan and Chet Baker back together doing some of their old stuff. This live album was recorded on November 24, 1974 after a great effort by DonFriedman (the producer not the pianist) to bring these musicians together again after a 10 year break.

The most intriguing point of this l.p. is the number **My Funny Valentine’’ whi- ch is played almost note for note by Gerry and Chet as it appeared in the '50’s.

On the same side is ‘‘Song For Strayhorn’’ which Mul- ligan wrote for Duke Elling- ton’s inseparable companion who died in 1967. This number is a very good jazz piece and is the first time it has appeared on a disc.

An oldie, ‘‘Line for Lyons”’ starts off side one and is followed by ‘‘Song for an Unfinished Woman" which are both very well done.

Appearing on the album with Baker and Mulligan are

Ron Carter bass, Bob James - keyboard, John Sco- field - guitar, Harvey Mason - drums and Dave Samuels - vibraharp and percussion

The album was produced by Creed Taylor, as was volume two, which I didn’t listen to. I rate volume one as a3".

Vacation Bible School planned

The St. Albert Evangelical Lutheran Church is offering two separate weeks of Vaca- tion Bible School. The focus will be on the theme Hosanna and will help the children to celebrate with joy and thanksgiving the many gifts God has given us in the gospel and in His creation.

The Royal Canadian Le- gion has committed itself to a two-fold program that will endeavour to encourage Quebecers to remain in a united country, and to in- fluence Anglophones to pr- ess for constitutional chan- ges that will minimize existing problems and help secure the future of Canada.

After a series of meetings and exploratory discussions over the past six months between senior Legion exe- cutives and legal and econo- mic experts from across Canada, it was concluded

The first session will be June 12-16, 9 - 11:30 a.m. for pre-schoolers (ages 3-4-5). The second session will be July 24-28, 9 - 11:30 a.m., for Grades 1 - 6. All children in the community are welcome to attend, and we would appreciate an early regis- tration so that final plans can

that an important role could be played by Canada’s lar- gest fraternal organization at this time of unity crisis.

In a major policy statement made in Calgary on April 1 before a meeting of Legion executives from the province of Alberta, Mr. Robert McChesney, immediate past president of the $00,000 member Legion said that Canada was in grave peril of breaking up, and that the Legion, rather than sit idly by and watch the dis- memberment of our country, would take a leadership position in influencing public opinion on the side of change and the preservation of a single nation. ‘‘There must be a prompt and significant change in attitude in every part of our nation,”’ said McChesney. ‘‘It is the Legion's opinion that there is no time to lose because the majority of Canadians are unaware that a major crisis exists. The justifiable fear that the French have of losing their culture afd language must be recogni- zed."

Principal steps in the pro- gram were outlined as follows:

1. Because of the size, composition, and nationwide structure of the Legion, its members will first be alerted and provided with informa- tion on the urgency and dimension of the crisis.

2. Members will use their position in their respective communities to influence other’ Canadians and to encourage additional organ- izations, the public_and the media, to become associated in the program to better understand the complex is- sues at stake.

3. A Legion Task Force has been formed to visit the

10 provinces to brief Legion officers on Canadian unity and to explain the decisions taken. These officers will be

Legion assembles forces for national unity cause

encouraged to inform the Task Force of the local difficulties being experien- ced by our Canadian nation in the various provinces and regions, and to form pro- vincial task forces for more detailed activity.

Mr. McChesney further stated that the Legion hopes to impress upon its mem- bership the fact that Canada is faced not only with the problem of Quebec inde pendance, but that there exist in other regions other problems which, if unresol- ved, would present an equally complex and difficult situation.

“We also hope,”’ he said, **that this evidence of fair play will convince those who are not currently supporting the Federal system in Can- ada that there is indeed hope and that the necessary ch- anges will be made. Lan- guage and culture can be better ‘protected in a united Canada."

Mr. McChesney concluded by saying that if Anglo- phones, by their goodwill, understanding and support for change can encourage a majority of Quebecers to vote against separatism then a giant step forward will have been taken by Canada.

The Legion Task Force will visit Edmonton in June.

Another major step taking by the Legion is the pre- sentation of a Brief to the Pepin-Robarts Task Force on National Unity. It advocates patriation of the Canadian Constitution along with an amending formula and con- current major amendments; that fundamental rights, in- cluding linguistic, be inclu- ded in the Constitution; that changes be made in our electoral system; provision for the provinces to have more participation in app- ointing people to the Senate, the Supreme Court and cer- tain Federal agencies.

The heavy shake roof is complemented by the ginger- bread trim of the gables. Vertical battens on the walls, decorative railings, with the clever use and design of the Support beams, create an attractive exterior, There’s a driveway under the sundeck, which can be enclosed, leave

it as a carport as shown, or if it’s more desireable close it in for storage.

Directly from the carport illustrated here, the outside stairway leads to the large sundeck and front entrance, At the side, it’s only a few short steps from the back door and kitchen.

Double doors from the sundeck open to a spacious living area, created by combining the living and dining rooms, The entire front and dining side of this area features view windows, with a maximum of daylight. A free-standing fireplace (the acorn type) can be installed in the living

Damage payments in the thousands of dollars! ; Extensive downtime! A community angry because its gas supply has been cut off! Tragic explosions!

These things happen too often. To contractors, backhoe operators, even to backyard power posthole diggers.

Maybe it's because Alberta is such a busy place. In the past year over 465 miles of underground gas mains were installed in Northwestern Utilities service area

CALL OUR PIPE LOCATOR TEAM AT That makes a total of 6,720 miles of them plus over 210,000 individual service lines. How does a person

know where to start digging? 420-7568 K) NORTHWESTERN UTILITIES LIMITED

Plan to call your gas company's “Pipe Locator Team” at least 48 hours before you dig. They have radio dispatch trucks. They'll come and stake out the alignment of all gas lines so you can dig safely. The service is free. Your life is worth the effort.

Western Canadian Stock Car Driving Championships

While the Indy 500 was running on the tube, Cobra Raceway held its first of five Western Canadian Stock Car Driving Championships.

Winning the 50 lap feature race was a Calgarian, Cedrik Zinek.

While 24 laps were run under the yellow caution flag the field of 19 cars dwindled down to 14 before the half-way point.

Attendance for the Sunday afternoon event was a dismal 400, which could be attribu- ted to the race being re- scheduled from Saturday night.

Finishing second and third in the feature event res- pectively were Bryan Kutryk of Edmonton and Harold Brown of Calgary.

Mite-y Minis!

The Mini Mites weren't around last Wednesday night when the Grandin Town Team (light uniforms) met the Lacombe Internationals in the Mini Mite Soccer League. It was a hard fought battle and the Internationals emerged the victors with a score of 3 - 0. Photos by Scott Holliday.

Pitching highlights recent Builders’ games

LBH Builders were both victims and victors in recent Sturgeon Men's Fastball League action, largely due to some outstanding pitching performances.

After three opening vic- tories the Builders’ bubble burst when they came up against a tough Calahoo Chief squad who defeated Builders 7-2. Artie Stevenson

_ ace pitcher of the Chiefs, was

in total control of the game as he struck out six and allowed only two hits, while south- paw Lenny Grew suffered the loss.

much closer than it sounds, as Chiefs held a close 3-2 lead until the bottom of the sixth, when two errors by the Builders opened the door for four unanswered runs.

The following Monday it was the Dick Bird show, as Bird led the St. Albert A’s to a close 3-1 victory over the Builders. Bird's pitching performance allowed six hits but at no time except for the bottom of the seventh inning was he in serious trouble. Five strikeouts and several routine fly balls ended other innings in which Builders had runners on base.

Equally fine pitching per- formances were credited to Builders’ starter Gene Lyt- win and reliever Rich Mer- cier. Both combined to allow only two hits, but again two errors led to the Builders’ defeat.

Wally Cooper stroked two of the Builders’ hits, but again the inability of Buil- ders to bring the runners around led to their second straight loss.

On Sunday, Builders re- bounded by defeating Ono- way Royals 7-2 in a rain-out game make-up. Again pitch- ing was the order of the day

as Gene Lytwyn allowed only two hits while striking out 10 enroute to the victory. The first inning was all that was needed for Builders as they scored three runs to cinch the victory.

Lytwyn was never in serious trouble throughout the game as he received strong fielding support from both infield and outfield to
