Mr. Breadner also made reference to Mr. Jamison's letter which stated that to obtain the by-pass, St. Albert should enter into an agree- ment with Alberta Housing to landbank right-of-way property for the proposed by-pass. Mr. Breadner then cited a letter from then Minister of Alberta Housing and Public Works’ Bill Yurko who had written that ‘‘The City of St. Albert would not be considered a priority area for the (Alberta Industrial Land) Program."’ In refer- ence to this statement, .Mr. Breadner said this indicated Mr. Jamison had made a “misrepresentation before this council.”

Mrs. Bakker stated that she did not understand the opposition on council to the west by-pass, which she said in reality was an arterial road. Mr. Breadner respon- ded that the city was “looking for a solution to through town traffic.’’ He said the west artery would take some trucks off ‘but will do nothing significant” and would be ‘‘a makeshift solution to our problem."’
Ald. Bill Shields said that the city would ‘‘welcome any by-pass"’ but hada ‘‘clear preference’’ for an east by-pass.

when council is grappling with a serious transportation problem, the MLA comes forward with a pian for a road to serve Genstar holdings -- a provincial representative co- ming forward to council and putting the gun to our head." Mr. Shields went on to say “‘The MLA is still flogging the western pre- ference -- this is the issue at hand.”
Discussion of the west by-pass proposal came to an end with remarks from Ald. Ayotte.

The information Mrs. Bakker has brought back from the ERPC indi- cates the by-pass won't be able to come through there anyway. | prefer the west. It could be done sooner and is more possible.

at three as formerly set out in the bylaw.
In discussing the bylaw, Ald. Rod Throndson com- mented favourably on the new leashing requirement and said the draft gives more control over dogs running at large.
Expressing concern as to the enforceability of the draft clauses, Ald. Barry Breadner asked if the draft had been scrutinized by the city’s legal authorities, and was told by City Administrator Bob By- ron that this would be forthcoming in the draft's later stages.
Ald, Breadner moved that copies of the old bylaw, the draft bylaw and the city clerk's memo be sent to School District's 3 and 6.,
Mayor Ronald Harvey expressed concern that peo- ple do not realize their dogs must be impounded over the weekend as staff is not available to release the dogs on those days. Ald. Shields echoed this concern. How- ever, Ald. Throndson thought that the bylaw would be scrutinized carefully re- garding this and other matters.
“After all, we're sending it to everybody and his dog for comment,’’ he remarked.
In addition to expressing concern as to the possibility of defining ‘‘excessive how- ling,’’ Ald. Roger Ayotte suggested that the bylaw was a matter suitable for con- sideration by the Community Services Advisory Board, and moved that the draft be sent to the board for their perusal. The motion carried.
The question of citizens apprehending dogs at large drew a response from Ald. Liesbeth Bakker. Mrs. Bak- ker said she felt this clause would encourage people to take the law into their own hands.
‘‘What if they tried to arrest a person in the act of breaking and entering,’’ she asked.
**Anyone can,"’ replied members of council. ‘'A citizen's arrest is legal."
‘Does this mean anyone can apprehend anyone?” asked Mrs. Bakker.
“*Yes,’’ replied council members.
**Well, Lam horrified!"’ commented Mrs. Bakker.
The discussion of the bylaw was concluded and is now open to examination by the CSAB.

Chamber President Roger Lemieux presented with Alberta Chamber of the Year award by Chamber publicity man Ray Gibbon.
Chamber tops in Alta.
The St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce re- ceived the Alberta Chamber of the Year Award for communities of over 14,000 population in recognition of its outstanding service to the Chamber of Commerce mo- vement in Alberta at the Alberta Chambers annual meeting in Peace River last week.
The Chamber has become increasingly active recently showing an increase in membership from 40 to 125.
For the last three years the St. Albert Trade Fair has been sponsored by the Chamber and the last, held at the Perron Street Arena in May was the most successful to date.
The Chamber at one time could only exist through grants from town council but since 1975 it has been able to generate enough money for projects such as the reloca- tion of the North West Mounted Police Barracks in Red Willow Park. The barr- acks is now used as a tourist information booth by the Midnight Twilight Tourist Association, an organization promoting tourism in the area north of Edmonton with which the St. Albert Cham- ber works closely.
Last week the Chamber turned over $1662 to the City

They intend to focus their energies on a holiday trailer park and campsite for St Albert in 1979. Presently they have their eyes on the old Lions campsite behind the Legion and RCMP buildings but it is likely the city will request they use a site adjacent to the Rodeo Grounds.
The Chamber is also be- coming active in the area of municipal affairs under the guidance of John Dickson, chairman of the Municipal Affairs Committee. The committee analysis traffic problems and other areas which might make the city more attractive to businesses and passing trade. This includes putting up signs, the tourist booth, etc.
In September Roger Le- mieux, Chamber president, will be travelling to Halifax for the Canadian Chambers National Convention where he hopes to learn of projects other Chambers are involved in across Canada that may be beneficial to St. Albert and area, ,

Subdivision gets nod |}
The Municipal Planning Commission moved briskly through its business Tuesday night, approving three re- quests for subdivision and one development.
The major item of business concerned a proposal by Qualico Development Ltd. to build 118 condominium units on Alpine Boulevard in Akinsdale. The project is to be developed in two phases, each of which will be developed with densities un- der the city standard of 12 units per acre. One phase will have an approximate density of 11.3 units per acre, with the other at 10.5.
Guy Scott of Qualico told the commission that because of terms regarding mortgage financing in the new Plan- ning Act, it was necessary to subdivide the parcel for the two phases, to allow the company to develop the par- cels under separate title. Mr. Breadner inquired if the entire project would be governed by one condomin- ium association, to which Mr. Scott replied that this could be agreed to in the letter of intent. In later discussion, it was revealed that some minor irritants had

Daze dance
to be real hoe-down
The spirit of rodeo will gallop through St. Albert this weekend, and with it comes the ultimate hoe-down: The Rodeo Daze Dance, spon- sored by the Associates, 271 Club of the Royal Canadian Legion. This rompin’, stom- pin’ affair gives suburban slickers a chance to step out in western style and really whoop it up.
The scene of all this western wackiness will be the Legion Hall, and folks will be moseyin’ along to the fun about 8 p.m. on Friday, June 16. The action will be non-stop until 1 a.m. Setting the toe-tappin’ rhythm for the evening will be the Rusty Nails. All the cowboys and cowgirls in attendance are expected to be decked out in their nattiest western finery, so shake out the ruffled skirts and the sequined shirts and get ready to cut the rug. The purtiest turned out gal and the smartest looking cow- poke will each get a prize from the club.
No western social would be complete without chow, and the Legion chuckwagon will be serving up a real down home dinner of chicken in a basket with all the trimmings that Tex, Rex, Hopalong and Roy ever dreamed of on the long trail rides.
To make sure that you don’t get left standing at the barn door, skip right along to the Legion Office now and get your tickets before there all gone. sou can also get them by calling good ol’ Fern Armstrong at 459-4807, The tickets are $15 per couple, which all in all is a puny little sum for a lotta fun!

Mr. Byron moved that the subdivision be approved subject to the three con- ditions stipulated by plan- ners and engineers, and with the condition that a single
condominium association govern the development. Dennis Christian of Qual- ico also circulated a model of the proposed development. The condominiums will be constructed in clusters, in a pinwheel manner, with an adiacent shopping centre and Please Turn to Page 10
Music program may start in District 3
Catholic School Board tr- ustees heard a proposal from Mrs. Frances Schuchard that would see a group of parent volunteers make themselves available for help in a music program in district schools.
Mrs. Schuchard, who was accompanied by Linda Ou- llette to the meeting Monday night, said there was grow- ing concern among parents that there was no music program in district schools aside from an excellent program at Albert Lacombe elementary. Some parents, she said, were near to signing a petition in an expression of their views on the matter.
Rather than take this approach, Mrs. Schuchard decided to resign her job at Albert Lacombe, and come to the Board with her volunteer program idea.
It would include organiz- ing a group of parents who are musically inclined who would make themselves av- ailable, and setting up a committee for the purpose of implementing the program. Mrs. Schuchard told board members she had talked to several teachers and parents who were very enthusiastic about the idea.

Ed Bertram celebrates anniversary
When Ed Bertram started working in St. Albert he could read all the meters in half a day.
Calgary Power's area foreman at St. Albert re- cently marked his 25th
anniversary with the Alberta based utility and has lived and worked in this area since he joined the company in 1953.
Coming to Alberta from Prince Edward Island in that year his experience with Maritime Electric led him to apply for a job with Calgary Power. In 1953 he joined a company survey crew out of Edmonton and later trans- ferred to construction work. In 1955 he was introduced to district service as a ser- viceman with the company’s Jasper Place office
In 1966 Mr. Bertram was named assistant district ma nager of the company's new St. Albert district office, initially a two-man operation which quickly expanded as the He promoted to area foreman in 1976 when the district be- came the area headquarters for the company’s operations in the St. Albert division

Mr. Bertram says the move to Alberta was a big challenge for a young man with few connections in the west, but has no regrets about the move
“*Llike to go back to the Island every couple of years, to visit my family, but Alberta is a great place to live and I've never seriously entertained thoughts of go- ing back to P.E.I. tolive,"* he says
“It was a whole new way of life at first. They tell me | had quite a twangy accent when I arrived, but I've lost all of it now. One of the things that helped me esta- blish friendships here was music, | carried my guitar across country with me and it was instrumental in meeting my wife.”
Mr. Bertram met his wife when her brother invited him to the family home to give a guitar lesson
**I've never had any formal music training, but I've been lucky enough to have an ear for music and been able to work oul tunes on the guitar
**An evening of homemade music is still very popular in the east but seems to be less common here. That's un- fortunate because it's a lot of fun to have someone play and have everybody join in for a sing-song. Once it gets going it looks after itself

Throndson is city rep
at mine hearing
City council’s Committee of the Whole Monday night selected Ald. Rod Throndson to present St. Albert's con- tribution to the Energy Resources Conservation Bo- ard hearing on Star Key Mines Thursday.
In a memorandum from City Administrator Bob By- ron, council members learn- ed that the company is hoping to schedule their 80 truck runs through St. Albert so that most of the trips do not coincide with peak traffic hours.
This brought an inquiry from Ald. Breadner as to how this could be accomplished with that many trips in daylight hours. Mr. Bread- ner also said he thought the city should express its con- cern that waste dust and flyash have a potential impact on the environment. He stated that he thought the city had insufficient in- formation to make an assess- ment of such an impact. He
Park washroom vandalism discussed
The constant and merci- less vandalism of Lions Park was once again discussed last night by a perplexed city council, in its committee of the whole.
According to the report of the city manager, the public washrooms at the park are “unserviceable and beyond reasonable repair.’’ The re- port says complete replumb- ing and new fixtures are needed to make the facility functional, a repair job with an estimated price tag of $5,000. However, city staff has expressed a preference for replacement, rather than a repair of the washrooms, as a building more resistant to vandalism is required. In addition, it is felt that the washrooms should be locked up at dusk and re-opened each morning during the summer months when the park is used heavily.
Ald. Barry Breadner sug- gested that the Lions Club might be interested in taking on the washroom facility as a while the city ex-

Ald. Ayotte suggested that council first ascertain if there was a need for the wash- rooms, and Ald. Throndson answered with an emphatic **Yes!"’
Mayor Ronald Harvey told members of council that the Lions Club was ‘‘not too anxious’’ to take on the washroom problem as a project and commented that City Engineer Don Corrigan was ‘‘at his wits’ end" as what to do about the situa- tion.
“Every night the fixtures are burned off. torn off,"’ said the mayor
Ald. Throndson moved that the matter of vandalism in general be referred to the Community Services Advis- ory Board for discussion and report back to council. How- ever, this motion was with- drawn until city staff draw up the terms of reference of the CSAB investigation

asked that Ald. Throndson tell the hearing the city will be looking into the matter further.
Ald. Margaret Smith com. mented that the city does not know what future expansion Genstar is considering mak- ing to the Star Key Mine operation in the future. Mrs Smith also inquired if the company would continue the public sale of coal and was told by Mr. Byron that they would.
Stressing Genstar's ex cellent track record in the community in the past, Ald Roger Ayotte indicated he thought the city should pro- ject a *‘cautious but posi- tive’’ attitude. He remarked that the city should en courage co-operation in order to attract business to the city
Mayor Ronald Harvey commented that the city could not dictate the uses of a public highway.

Provincial grant change will aid District 3
Changes to the Declining Enrolment Grant formula to increase the scale of support for school districts, and to provide assistance in the year of actual decline of enrolment were announced June 8 by Education Minister Julian Koziak, speaking to school trustees in Banff.
Changes to the formula provide:
- eligibility following a one percent decline in student enrolment compared to 2.45% under the previous plan;
- full assistance in the year in which declines occur, eliminating the two year averaging provision now in effect;
substantially increased rates of assistance for small school systems.
For many small school systems, where even small enrolment drops have critical impacts on budgets, the new formula will double or triple previous allowances.
St. Albert District 3 Sec- retary-treasurer, Ted Bald- win, reporting to the Board on the Banff convention, said the District stood to receive approximately $37,000 as a result of the change to the Declining Enrolment Grant formula although at this time no official word has been received'from the Depart- ment of Education.
The Catholic School Dis- trict suffered a sharp decline in enrolment at St. Albert High when the Sturgeon School Division built Namao High School.
Under the previous plan, one small district experien- ced a decline of 4.3% in one year but was ineligible for a grant because that loss was averaged with the previous years no-loss situation. Bas- ed on the announced chan- ges, the district would now be eligible for $23,400.
Major beneficiaries under the revised provisions will be the Edmonton Public and Separate Districts which ex- perienced large enrolment losses in 1977. Edmonton Separate, which was not eligible for grants under the previous formula, is esti- mated to be eligible for approximately $148,000 for

the 1977-78 school year. Edmonton Public School District, for the same period, is estimated to be eligible for over $556,000 up from $296,000 estimated by the previous formula.

FT we The Gazette Reflects
CAN ST. ALBERT WAIT FOR AN EAST BYPASS?
The decisions made last week by the Edmonton Regional Planning Commission that 127th Street north of 137th Avenue will not become a major arterial corridor - and that the east side of 127th Street north of 137th Avenue will be zoned residential-commercial-industrial, has probably scuttied any hope for an east bypass of St. Albert in the foreseeable future. In fact, the area east of St. Albert is so badly planned, that any road the city and/or MD Sturgeon may wish to have built to the east to feed into Edmonton, with Edmonion’s blessing, is prac- tically impossible.
MLA Jamison, representing both the city and the MD has taken the position for many years that roads - or at least right-of-way requirements - should come before zoning and development He did not have municipal backing and Campbell Industrial Park was purchased with no road accesses in sight. The St Albert Area Transportation study reports, that the population of St. Albert would have to be about 175,000 to warrant light rail extension from Edmonton to St. Albert. (ERPC Paper No. 12 “Transportation and Urban Growth).”
St. Albert did oppose the ERPC decisions on 127th Street, but the Commission is made up of elected officials from all municipalities in the greater Edmonton region, along with govern- ment resource people and planning staff, and St. Albert was out-voted.
ERPC has done road studies for years and has recommended a “ring road” around Edmonton and also a northwest freeway or radial road. To date they are only lines on ERPC maps.
Thus ERPC’s action last week dealt a disasterous blow to those members of council who have an east bypass as their number one priority. Present traffic congestion in Castle Downs, added to the 127th Street pian, puts the screws to east arterial corridors from St. Albert.
Meanwhile, the situation on the Trail is due to worsen with the construction of 340 condomin- iums on the hotel property, 280 condo units on the new large shopping centre site, plus generation of more traffic when the shopping centre is opened. Gravel, sand and coal trucks from Villeneuve, Waugh and Starkey have no alternative route to St. Albert Trail.
Council should quit playing petty politics with the MLA who did persuade the government to alleviate some traffic problems by taking over 170th Street, 137th Avenue and 156 Street from MD Sturgeon and paving these routes to Edmonton.
It ig no secret that Alderman Breadner, Shields, and Throndson are actively supporting former alderman Myrna Fyfe for MLA, and the name of that game is “make Jamison look bad.” As alderman, a more adult approach is needed. If the game playing goes on until the November nomination, alot of valuable time will be lost.
No time should be lost by council in giving whole-hearted support to the MLA's efforts to get right-of-way acquired and plans in place for a west bypass of St. Albert to be ready by 1982. So far, the west route is not overly developed, an asset in acquiring land for roads. First step is a meeting with Alberta Housing and Business Development officials, arranged by the mayor for the purpose of acquiring industrial land (extension of Riel Drive) and right-of-way. No immediate capital outlay is needed by St. Albert, and the city can have five to fifteen years to sell the industrial land and pay the province.

THE STAMPEDE MAY BE BIGGER, BUT WE ‘RAIN’ SUPREME!
Spring brings the battle of the bug
Nothing is more frustra- ting to the owner of a lush garden haven than an inva- sion by insect pests. Within a short span of time, crawling and flying intruders can fade and wither leaves of trees, plants and vegetables, leav- ing the gardener with a barren yard after all his spring labours.
However, there is a tendency to over-react at the first sight of such symptoms. Fading or withered leaves can be caused by factors other than insects, and District Agriculturist John Hladky warns gardeners not to begin spraying pesticides until sure that insects are the problem.
Plants and trees should be checked for signs of infesta- tion, and the presence of bugs. If there is doubt as to the kind of insect pest present the gardener can take a good representative sample of the insect and damaged leaves and bring it to the District Agriculturist's office in Morinville. There it will be identified and a remedy prescribed.
Mr. Hladky has received reports of tent caterpillars in nearby areas, particularly west of St. Albert, and advises the use of Malathion to arrest the infestation. He stresses however, that the gardener must follow the package instructions for the use of this or any chemical pesticide.
Another reported intruder in local gardens is the aphid. These can sometimes be identified by a sticky ‘thon- eydew"’ substance that they deposit on the leaves. Aphids tend to attack the new growth on trees and plants. Again, Malathion is the best chemical solution to this problem. The leaf miner is another local pest, which attacks birch trees and lilacs, among others. The presence of the leaf miner on birch trees is indicated by leaves which turn yellow in patches. An application of Cygon

painted on the base of the tree can be used against this pest. Again, check the pack- age instructions before app- lication.
Spruce trees in Alberta are not bothered much by the infamous Spruce Bud Worm. However, we have our own local enemy of spruce -- the Spruce Saw Fly. This nasty
customer starts at the top of the tree and eats its way down. Owners of spruce are warned not to confuse a sow fly invasion with winterkill or winter drying. The latter result in brown patches in the spruce boughs which show up in spring. It can be partially avoided by watering
the tree just prior to freeze- up. Checking out the pre- sence of other factors can prevent unnecessary spray- ing of chemicals.
Anyone with inquiries as to garden pests can obtain information from the District Agriculturist's office in Mor- inville.
Use your influence speaker tells handicapped
A very successful meeting held in the Senior Citizen's Recreation Centre on Thurs- day, June 8, was the cul- mination of a lot of hard work done by the Steering Com- mittee since November of 1977. A local association for the handicapped was for- med.
Guest speaker Mrs. Flor- ence McKie of Edmonton reminded those present that the handicapped, like any other citizens are entitled to good medical care, education and the opportunity for full development. This should take place within the com- munity as much as possible.
She also pointed out that as an Association there are three areas of influence that should be exploited: Public Power: through political ch- annels and through the use of the media. Personal Power: through the committ- ed use of human resources and careful planning. All time is precious including volunteer time used in or- ganizing, etc. Political Pow- er: involving all levels of government from civic thr- ough provincial to federal elected officials. Know who your school board members are, What platform does your MLA represent? What are your MP's priorities? Goy- ernment funding and grant structures sometimes have a
political connotation.
What are the immediate needs of citizens who are handicapped and the needs of their families? Trans- portation - something along the same lines as DATS of Edmonton is needed. Access to buildings, curbs, etc. limit access to many areas to persons in wheelchairs. Ba- bysitting or relief care for both physically and mentally handicapped children, and for families with a mentally handicapped adult living at home. Swimming for pre- school children who are mentally handicapped. Com- munity education for ‘‘Tr- ainable’’ mentally handicap- ped children. There are at present at least two eight year old children in this category and resident in St. Albert, who have no program at all. Why? Someone has decided they have a ‘‘be- haviour"’ problem and there- fore the parents must cope with it alone,
EXECUTIVE & BYLAWS HANDLED
The Steering Committee was elected as interim executive and three persons
volunteered to complete the full slate of 10 persons. Members of the Board are: Ev Gabourie, Kathleen Hi- ckey, Gail McIndoe, Shery! McNamara, Jo Nielsen, Eyla Rogers, Ron Yates, William Lukasiewich, Virginia An- derson and Hazel Hammond. During the immediate sum- mer months priorities will be established as to community needs and how these can be met. In order to be effective, the Association must be made aware of existing re- quirements and any ques- tions or suggestions can be directed to Jo Nielsen, 458-7697 or Eyla Rogers, 459-5788. Copies of the bylaws are still available and may be obtained by calling St. Albert Community Ser- vices, Mrs. Helene Durand at 459-6601.

CANADA, UNITY AND YOU
Your two correspondents are each represen- tative of our French and English founding cultures. They have spent some 25 years in as many foreign countries with those excruciating problems arising from politics, poverty and social adjustments which only too often result in revolution.
When presenting our observations on our distant and beloved country, we know that we reflect the feelings of thousands of our compatriots who, like us, are engaged in diverse professional activities abroad.
We are also fully conscious of the many regional, economic and cultural problems which tend to divide our nation, but we firmly believe that in reality Canada is not by any means a dying country. To the contrary, we are convinced that Canada is on the way to its own Renaissance. As distance does not allow us to participate directly in this awakening, we have wanted to make our contribution by sending this letter to the 950 English and French language newspapers in Canada.
We simply refuse to believe that Canadians are less intelligent than other people. Surely Canadians realize that a united Canada is a strong Canada and that a divided Canada can only be a weak country which projects among its foreign friends and customers a feeling of skepticism, uncertainty and confusion. The disunity, of a country, of any country, only invites lack of respect abroad for that country. A divided Canada clearly risks being absorbed and disappearing completely in the big American melting pot. It is axiomatic that the unity of a country is intimately linked to its identity and image abroad.
The common experience of your two correspondents demonstrates clearly and abun- dantly that acts of goodwill and joint efforts by the conflicting parties can only lead to a better mutual understanding and respect, even to friendship, with all the advantages this implies. How else could one explain the durable and numerous friendships that we ourselves have developed in so many countries speaking such different languages?
It seems to us that the starting point towards unity is a real and drastic change of attitude towards languages and a simple appreciation and recognition of the advantages which the knowledge of languages carries in Canada or anywhere else. A second language is a recognized necessity for an educated and cultured person, most particularly when such languages are as universally used as are English and French. If the Chinese, the Russians, the Germans, the Americans to be sure, and many other nations had that same “linguistic” opportunity as have Canadians, you would see how quickly and efficiently they would exploit it to their very best advantage.
It is a matter of meeting the challenge. Here are a few of the small and simple means within the reach of all of us:
1. Post notices at appropriate places reading: “On parle francais” or “English spoken.”
2. Write individually or collectively to your Editor, Member of Parliament, School Board (or all three) requesting that both English and French be effectively taught and used in the first grades of schools. Our famous Dr. Penfield has demonstrated that the ability to learn languages is greatest in young pupils.
8. Organize and/or support interprovincial visits.
4. Promote the teachers.
5. Increase communication by organizing pen- pal clubs through newspapers or schools.
We who live overseas have made a first gesture by writing this letter. It is up to you to ensure its success through your individual or collective efforts. When the stake is the survival of the country, nobody can refuse to answer the call or to make an effort. Long live Canada!

Since 1972, Mr. Lemieux has been promoting Canadian-Spanish trade in a private capacity.
The two men met in Guatemala in 1961 and have corresponded ever since, realizing how much they appreciate sharing their common Canadian heritage. Their letter is their way of doing their “bit” in the struggle for Canadian Unity, and was sent to 1200 newspapers across Canada, in the hope it would encourage other Canadians to participate actively to the struggle for unity.
PARAMEDICS AND CITY PRAISED
| wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to the St. Albert Fire Department, Ambulance Service and Paramedics, who responded to my call last week.
The two young men, whose names | do not know, were efficient, prompt and courteous. Without their assistance | do not know if my husband would still be alive.
One never appreciates these services until an emergency arises, but to me, it is a great comfort to know they are available.
We are relative newcomers to St. Albert and the many offers of help and moral support | have received from people, give me a wonderful feeling of belonging. You have a very fine city.

ASSOCIATION FOR HANDICAPPED FORMED
Please allow me space in your weekly paper, first of all to thank you for the space you and your staff have given our committee to get information out to our community.
Thank you also to those who gave us permission to put up posters in their place of business or recreation; to Virginia Anderson for designing the posters; to the Lions Club of St. Albert who have given us a typewriter as well as moral support; to those C.B.ers who offered to drive anyone requiring rides on the night of the general meeting; to the Senior Citizens who have given us space for meetings...The list goes
on.
The St. Albert Association for the Handicap- ped is now Officially incorporated under the societies act. Our objective is to promote the welfare of those who are handicapped and to lend support to their families. How successful we are will depend on the support we get from you, our neighbours. On behalf of the members of the Steering Committee...a very sincere Thank You.

BUGNET ERRATA
The article concerning the conferring of an honourary degree on Mr. Georges Bugnet in the June 7th issue of the St. Albert Gazette, contains a few errors in reporting.
First of all, the priest from Vimy is Father Viel and not Father Diel. Also, Mr. and Mrs. Bugnet moved to Legal in 1955, after which their homestead in Rich Valley was placed under provincial government protection for all the valuable plants and seeds located there. They moved to the Chateau Sturgeon in 1970.
In mentioning Mr. Bugnet's literary works, “Nipsya” was published in 1924, “Lys du sang” in 1932, “Siraf” in 1934, “La Foret” in 1935 and “La voix de la solitude” in 1938.
If you can't get the facts straight, please don't publish them.

Two previous stories have been done on Mr. Bugnet, in which this information was included, plus other historical backgrounds. We regret the typographical error on Father Viel’s name.

Notice to Residents
It has been observed that some residents are dumping refuse such as grass cuttings, boards, sod, gasoline and
discarded motor oil into street catch basins.
Placement of refuse into street catch basins not only causes serious maintenance problems (increased costs to the taxpayer) but could cause severe flooding problems on the street if the catch basins are blocked during a heavy rainfall. In addition, placement of refuse into catch basins contravenes Provincial and City Regulations (Bylaws) and anyone found dumping refuse into street catch basins is subject to prosecution.

Air Cadets in Review
#533 RC|AIR|C ST. ALBERT
In the early AM on Saturday, June 10, 1978, #533 RC(AIR)C cadets de- parted for Elk Island Park and a day of fun. Cadets and officers participated in socc- er, football and baseball. Teams were organized under the supervision of OC G. Armstrong and though some of the sports were pretty rough, no one experienced any serious injury. Capt. G. Martin was Camp Comm- anding Officer and the flags of Canada, Alberta and the Squadron were very impres- sive outside the Command- ing Officer headquarters. The raising of the flags was accompanied by a General Salute played by Sgt. R Yates

Railway crossing raises questions
In an effort to provide better road access to the Riel Industrial Park, the City of St. Albert has applied to the Canadian Transport Com- mission to obtain approval of construction of a railway crossing. The crossing would carry Levasseur Road across the CNR right of way at the Sangudo Subdivision to cr eate a temporary roadway link with Riel Drive. The matter was brought to the attention of council's com- mittee of the whole in its Monday night discussion of the city manager's report.
City Manager Robert By ron told council last night that cost sharing of the overpass would be split 80-20 between the federal govern ment and the municipality with the feds paying the larger portion of the bill Discussions are underway now concerning the matter However, the temporary road access would be the responsibility of the muni cipality.
Ald. Barry Bréadner ques tioned as to whether the city would be wise to put ina temporary ramp type ol overpass, and then have to put in a permanent under-
pass.

. . . subdivision Continued From Page 3 park. Mr. Christian ex- plained that each cluster contained a one-storey bun- galow in the corner to allow the better diffusion of sun- light. Mr. Shields expressed concern that the number of tot lots were insufficient, as there should have four rather than three.
The motion to approve the development carried, with an amendment to add a strate- gically located tot lot.
In other business, the MPC approved a proposal to subdivide a river lot across from Woodlands north of the
10 - ST. ALBERT & STURGEON GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE
River Road road allowance. The lot was to be subdivided for agricultural purposes.
Mr. Breadner said he had “*grave concerns’’ about approving another subdivis- ion ‘‘which could be within our boundaries."' He com- mented that should the subdivision be approved, the city would request a sub- stantial dedication of right- of-way next to the river.
Mr. Wayne Gordon moved that the subdivision be app- roved with a similar pro- vision for environmental reserve as had been required of the two lots upriver from the site
A similar situation arose
with a request to subdivide an area to the east of the present Star Key Mine site to six country residential lots. Mr. Gordon said this area could be subdivided with minimal effect on St. Albert as it was east of the gas plant road. Mayor Harvey moved to approve the subdivision on the condition there is suff- icient environmental reserve.

the parents involved it seems to mean more to the children. Its an idea and I think that with many heads together it would work.’ She said she had lined up four teachers at each school who would be willing to help,
Board members were ob- viously quite interested in the proposal and on Trustee Jerry Manegre's motion sent it to Board Policy Committee to work out the details. The question will come before the Board again likely by the last meeting in June. This would give Mrs. Schuchard and her volunteers time to prepare the program before the fall opening of schools,
May active month
for law enforcement
RCMP in St. Albert in- vestigated an above average monthly total of occurrences in the month of May, with the local detachment looking into a total of 746 occur- rences last month, This brings the total number of such incidents investigated for the year to date to 3130
Under the criminal code, 162 charges were laid in May, bringing the annual total of 438. Under federal statures related to drugs, four charges were laid in May out of 24 for the year so far.
A proportionately large number of charges were laid under provincial statutes
during the month of May, with 405 charges preferred out of a yearly total so far of 1226. Regarding provincial Statistics relating to liquor, May saw 46 charges laid ou of 131 for the year so far Presumably this high figure is due to warmer weather tempting drinkers to con sume liquor in places whict are prohibited, A number of unpaid traffic violations r sulted in four charges laid under municipal bylaws, out of five for the year to date.
There were 28 motor vehicle accidents during May, out of a yearty total so far of 106.
One man’s trash is another’s treasure
That ancient lamp or ornament you've been wait- ing to consign to the junk heap might not be consid- ered trash in the eyes of another. This and other items might better be given to the Knights of the Altar Rummage and Bake Sale to be held June 25S at 6 p.m. in the St. Albert Roman Cath- olic Church basement. The rummage sale tables will be a treasure trove of collec- tibles and curios, while the bake tables will be laden with
homemade delicacies to tempt the buyer.
Funds realized at the sale will be used to defray expenses for the annual camp being held in St. Basil on Pigeon Lake, August 21. Donations of any saleable items would be greatly appreciated and may be left at the church on the two evenings preceding the sale.
Everyone is welcome to come and share in the bargains and the goodies.

Development of Red Willow Park
Work will soon begin, along the banks of the Sturgeon River, to create a downtown park.
The park, to be known as Red Willow Park, is a joint venture by the City of St. Albert and the Devonian Foundation. It stre- tches on both sides of the river from the railway trestle in the west (including Lions Park) east to include the recently started park east of the Highway 2 bridge.
The plan includes a foot bridge across the Sturgeon at a point north of the Senior Citizen Recreation Centre, a boat launch on the north bank, foot bridges over low lying areas and two
parking lots also on the north“
side of the river. Bicycle paths and sidewalks will criss-cross the entire area and the soil berming will follow the river on both banks at the 1974 flood level.
The park will retain many of the existing trees in addition to the several species to be added. These include Golden Willow, Paper Birch, Flowering Crab- apple, Shubert Cherry, Brandon Elm, Scots -Pine Red Berried Elder, Siberian Coral Dogwood, Golden Plum Elder, Mugo Pine and Juniper. There will also be flower and shrub beds.
The section, on the eastern- most end of Red Willow, will give up its present barren look to become a beautifully treed sanc- tuary for passing tourists and area residents. City crews are presently laying the sod in this area and the first trees will soon
be planted.
The North West Mounted Police barracks came to be located in this area, through the efforts of the St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce. The building is used as an information booth by the Mid- night Twilight Tourist Association, a group promoting tourism north of Edmonton.
The Chamber was also instru- mental in initiating contact with the Devonian Foundation which to date has given the City $50,000 of a $457,000 grant to develop a park in St. Albert's downtown core.
The projected cost for the entire park has been set at $1,072,000 with work to be completed in two phases by December 1, 1980. -
So far the City has spent $354,940 acquiring land for the park and another $59,758 de- veloping the area for a total of $414,698.
The first phase of the area west of Perron Street is ex- pected to get underway in three weeks to a month time following approval of the Red Willow Park plan (above) by Alberta Environ- ment. The contractor has been lined up and is ready to start work on the concrete walkways as soon as the go-ahead is given. The footbridge over the Sturgeon River should be _ in place sometime this fall.
The stretch along the south bank of the river from west of the Bruin Inn property, contains private property and road and
lane allowances which may present a problem in consolida- ting City-owned parcels. City administration has recommen- ded the city not go ahead with consolidation at this time.
The area immediately behind the Legion and RCMP buildings has attracted the attention of the St. Albert Chamber of Com- merce who would like to see it developed as a holiday trailer and camp spot along the lines originally planned by the Lions Club several years ago. The city, however, appears to prefer using a site next to the Rodeo Grounds on Riel Drive. Whatever

Grandin tire playground completed
The Grandin Park Com- munity Playground Society is deeply indebted to those who assisted with construction of the new play facilities located at Albert Lacombe School. A gentle pat on the sunburned backs of those 130 adults, students and children from the community who put it all together.
Labouring under the hot
June 3rd sun were the good spirited team leaders and workers. Compliments on their co-operation and effi- ciency came from consultant and supervisor, Willie Weisz
The small fry were enter- tained by capable young babysitters. A superbly or- ganized ‘‘Lunch Committee" catered to all with refreshing drinks, lunch and supper.
Donations came from num- erous good cooks and food outlets.
To each of the above, to those residents who donated the use of tools and equip- ment, the men who trucked in tires, poles and sand, and the ladies who trucked out discarded tires, a sincere thank you.
Over the 12 month plan-
ning period, funds, products and services were donated by city and school administra- tions, service clubs, indivi- duals and businesses. The Society expresses gratitude to each of the following donors:

Parents agree to bus children
A meeting between mem- bers of the Catholic School Board administration and parents of children who live in the Father Jan attendance area who would be attending grade one resulted in an agreement to bus the chil- dren to Bertha Kennedy School in Lacombe Park.
The busing will eliminate split classes which would have been necessary in grades one through six. Parents unanimously con- sented to the proposal under the following conditions:
- the bus should come as close as possible to the children's homes;
- all children would be in the same class
- parents would have the option of sending all their children to Bertha Kennedy (one parent involved);
- if Bertha Kennedy should reach the position where they have two and one-half classes for grade one the excess would be combined with the Mission students and housed at Father Jan.
Trustees were concerned the conditions laid out would be making exceptions to the District Housing Policy and that granting them would open the door to more exemptions.

Woman gets engineering scholarship
The Calgary University reports that for the first time in the faculty of engineering a woman has received a major scholarship. Lois Pow, who will enter the mechani cal program in the fall, after completing two years of engineering was awarded the General Motors of Canada Scholarship, valued at $1,000 It is one of the two most highly valued scholarships open to U of C engineering students. Miss Pow has maintained a high honours standing throughout her first two years. She is presently conducting a study of Gener- al Motors plant use in St. Catherines, Ontario, and will do a report for presentation to the president of GM in August.

Larose Community playground completed
Saturday, June 10 at 6 p.m. the last bolt was tightened to the final tire Structure in the Larose Community playground (lo- cated on the Bertha Kennedy school grounds). It culmin- ated a day of great effort on the part of over 100 volun- teers,
Reminiscent of ‘‘barn raising’’ days of yesteryear, the day was a rather festive occasion providing an opportunity for people to meet other members of the community while working on the playground. The whole day was supervised by Willi Weisz (a tire playground consultant) and the fact that the whole operation runs so smoothly is a tribute to his efficient organization,
The Larose playground would not however have become a reality except for the efforts of one man - Joe Laplante - the vice principal of Bertha Kennedy school. Joe, in his ‘capacity as donations co-ordinator, was kept busy lining up the hardware, telephone poles, tires etc. This past week however has been especially hectic for Joe. With the principal away from school he has been busy collecting the remaining 150 tires in his “*spare’’ time, thus doing double duty. Many, many thanks to Joe!
The efforts of several other people on the playground committee also contributed to the success of the play-
ground - Gary Hamilton for his excellent work in gather- ing the necessary tools, Joy Aboussafy for all her work organizing the food, Judy Wood as the volunteers co-ordinator, Sally Burry and Leslie Gordon for their work on the fund-raising dance, Melba Dobrostanski as ch- airperson, Leonie Chugg as secretary treasurer and Marg Iseke, Adeline Fleming and Vivian Cey for their help in several areas.
Total cost of the play- ground was about $4000 - However the total value of the playground far exceeds that. It has been estimated that if the city had had to purchase the materials new, and pay for the labour costs, the total cost would be in the area of $30 - $40,000.
The funds for the play- ground were obtained from St. Albert S.D. #3 ($500), the City of St. Albert ($1500), a dance ($900), and a school chocolate almond sale. Many thanks to the school district and city for their financial contributions,
According to Mr. Weicz this playground is the largest he has built (and he has built hundreds in North America). It is the first one to have two cubic structures,
Friday was preparation day. It involved drilling the holes in the tires and color- coding them and also placing the poles for the swings. Many thanks to the men who worked all day Friday on
these preparations. Special thanks to Ron Bohaychuk as the backhoe operator on both days.
Friday evening Mr. Weisz held a training session for the 14 men who were the leaders on Saturday (for which these men also de- serve special thanks for a job well done).
Saturday saw a real co-operative effort and th- anks to all the men busy constructing the various str- uctures, the women who helped with the food (lunch supper and snacks), the girls who babysat, and the men, women and children who were busy carrying, shovel- ing and raking sand.
The day was a fun one for everyone - especially the children - who could help for a while and then play fora while on the structures ad they were completed (some as early as noon).
ELSIE LOCKERT COMMENDED
While the thanks are being given, all the playgrounds must give thanks to the Grandin playground com- mittee for the ground work and leadership they provided to the other three groups (the four playground committees
have been working together
in securing materials).
One woman, Elsie Lockert, deserves special mention - since it was in her capacity as Please Turn to Page 14

Continued From Page 13 a board member of St. Albert S.D. #3 that the idea of creative playgrounds at the elementary schools was con- ceived. Elsie then convinced the board to offer $500 as an incentive to any community group that showed it was organized enough to bring the playground idea to fruit- ion. Now, roughly a year later, the four playgrounds are complete - much to the joy of hundreds of children. Several firms and indivi- duals contributed to the success of the Larose play- ground through donations. Those that contributed tools were Certified Rentals, Bata Well Service, Canadian Sup- erior Oil, Harsim Construc- tion, Calgary Power, Demel- co Ltd., LBH Home Im- provement Centre, Green-
haven Garden Centre, Im- perial Lumber and Sid Kennedy.
Food donations came from Canada Packers, Staffords Foods, McDonalds, | & S Produce, Safeway, John Kozachuk's farm and Mr. Welch.
Contributors for door pri- zes at the fund raising dance were: General Photo, Kraft Foods, Mildens Hair Design, Beaver Lumber, St. Albert Bakery, St. Albert Florists, Lacombe Park Red Rooster, Lacombe Park Pacific 66, Settlement, Denim Den.
Tire donations came from the following: Mike Hein of Goodyear Tire Co. who sorted, stored and delivered over half of the tires, Crown Tire (large earthmovers), Jasper Retreaders, Firest- one, Trail Tire Service, Bohaychuks Transport, Cap- ital Transport, B & D Tiretown, Fred Fleming (FI-
eetway Trucking, who arr- anged delivery of most of the earthmover tires), R. Angus, Fountain Tire, B.F. Goodrich and Du-All Tire.
Other donations were: the cherry picker from Waiward Steel Fabricators, Edcon Block (Concrete), Webb Hardware, I.T.T. Grinelle - discount on the firemans poles, Consolidated Concrete - sand and the City of St. Albert - gravel.
As can be seen the list of donors is long. It is an indication of what a large joint effort this was on the part of so many individuals. Many thanks to everyone who helped in any capacity. We can all look with pride to a job well done.
Certificates of appreciation were presented to all the volunteers in the lunch room following supper. There were however, some volunteers who helped a great deal in
the afternoon who had not registered and we would like to recognize these people if
they could stop by the school for a certificate.
8th Brownies hold awards banquet
The 8th Pack Brownie mother and daughter ban- quet was held June 5 at the Vincent Maloney School. The evening was a great success right down the lane starting with a tasty chicken dinner which was finger licken good right to the last bite. Pop and coffee ran freely and squares to delight a Queen's taste finished the meal. Rev. Noel Gordon and Commissionaire Joyce Smith were the guest speakers and added a special touch to the evening with their talks on the religion in life badge and what Brow- nies are all about.
The enrolment of our own “Snowy Owl"’ Eva Kerslake
was a high point of the evening. The girls them- selves received well earned badges and special awards for other Brownie activities. The highlight and most appreciated by the girls was a puppet show put on by Carola, Brenda and Brent of Sir George Simpson School. The show was great and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
All and all, it was a gala affair the awards in Brownies are untouchable and we invite all interested parties to come out and participate. Have a good summer, Brownies, and th- anks everyone.
A short meeting followed the Mass. At this time the treasurer, Doris Holth ann ounced that the St. Albert Knights of Columbus had loaned the CWL Ladies $300 to get their organization started. A panel of parish members consisting of Den nis McDonald, Pat Mac Pherson and Father Colin Levangie expressed the needs of the Parish and what CWL members could do to help. In the absence of Theresa Clark - Cultural Life convenor, this part of the meeting was chaired by Mary-Ellen Rajotte,

Young students respond to new math program in Calgary school
A new math program for in the first to fourth year, which uses no text books directly with the class texts are used only to prepare content was begun in Highwood School in Calgary in September, 1977. Math classes consist entirely of activities-based projects using real clocks, a home- made store, games and cards and counting boards.
The program was insti- tuted after 1976 math test scores were analyzed for third-year students. The bottom third of the class had

a weak basis for under- standing math concepts. Students complained that math was difficult and they didn't like it, and median scores were 5 - 10% lower than reading scores for the same group.
Teachers initiated the new program and enlisted the help - at least one parent at the school every day. At present every math lab class usually has four adults. The math teacher, regular class- room teacher, one parent and the full time math lab aide.

For each class the children are divided into small groups of four or five for plenty of individual attention.
At the end of each day's work the students fillout a small slip of paper telling how they liked a given exercise, what they learned and how they can use the information elsewhere.
‘At first some teachers were reluctant to teach without a text,’’ said math teacher Marilyn Harrison, ‘but the results were so immediate, and so much better than we expected, that now they are as enthusiastic about the math lab as the kids ...""
EVALUATION
Evaluation is an integral part of the program, since each pupil is allowed to progress at his own rate. Careful records are kept each year on each pupil using various tests, teacher's dia- ries, parent surveys and work samples. All students are tested when they come into the program and again at the end of three years. Results will be assembled and at final report submitted in June 1979,

It looks like a giant jigsaw puzzle and the visitor is tempted to try to fit some- thing together. However, the realization that the maze of pipes and mahogany case- work will ultimately become the University of Alberta's tracker organ stays the hand.
Besides, a number of workers from Casavant Fre- res Limitee, the St. Hya- cinthe, Quebec, company which the university con- tracted to build the organ, are busy installing it above the east end of Convocation Haii. And Professor Gerhard Krapf, a special consultant engaged by the university's department of music, is very much aware of each intricate maneuver.
There’s nothing puzzling about the installation to

Increased enrolment in the organ degree program and extensive recital programs for public enjoyment are envisioned by Professor Kr- apf who came here from University of lowa last July to supervise the installation and teach in the department of music,
His appointment followed the retirement of Dr. Hugh Bancroft.
The organ, which reached the university after four years of planning and build- ing, is valued at $185,000. It was erected and tested in the shop in St. Hyacinthe and then dismantled and shipped by truck to the university.
Convocation Hall, a gath- ering place for music lovers since the late 1950s, has been renovated to provide optimum acoustical and cl- imatic conditions for the two-ton organ which will rest ona steel girder platform, Two pedal towers, each in excess of 16 feetin height, will flank the instrument.
Delicate tonal adjustments will be made during the summer and the inaugural recital will be given by Professor Krapf on October 1. A series of dedication recitals, including one by European organist Arno Schonstedt, will follow,
Professor Krapf and each succeeding organist will per- form on a freestanding and encased instrument. Its key action will be mechanical and its stop action electro-pneu- matic. From the three manual key desk the organist will control 36 speaking Stops.
As a tracker-action organ, the distinguishing character- istic is that the connection of keys to pipe valves is mechanical rather than pneumatic or electric.

Organ donorship campaign launched
Alberta Social Services and Community Health and the Department of the Soli- citor General have launched a campaign to encourage Albertans to participate in a provincial organ donorship program. Donor consent cards are part of the new drivers’ licenses being sent out by the Motor Vehicles Branch, and non-drivers can obtain copies of the consent card by writing in to either provincial department or by picking up a copy of the program pamphlet which is being distributed throughout the province.
‘It's Your Body’ is the slogan of the advertising campaign, which began June Ist. Albertans are urged to make a commitment now to organ donorship-to fill in the consent card and carry it at

WHAT ORGANS ARE NEEDED?
Eyes are in great demand for corneal transplants and other treatments for the blind. Kidneys are needed by many people who are now being kept alive by artificial means (dialysis) while wait- ing for a donor.
An extract from the pit- uitary gland is used to stimulate the growth of children who lack the hor- mone necessary to promote normal growth and de- velopment. Since this hor- mone cannot be produced artificially, the only source is pituitary glands donated after death. The procedure does not noticeably disfigure the body as the gland is removed through the roof of the mouth.
Middle ear drums, skin grafts for severe burn cases, heart muscle tissue, seg- ments of bone, whole bodies for research -- these and other organs are all needed now and others may be needed in the future as new transplant techniques are perfected.

AGE LIMITS FOR DONORS
It depends. Kidneys and other vital organs come from people under 60 years of age. Cornea and pituitary dona- tions are usually possible at any age.
GUARANTEE OF USE?
Several factors can affect whether or not you will be able to donate: the physical condition of your body at the time of your death, the circumstances of death, the timing involved. Contrary to many beliefs, most organs and tissues cannot be pre- served or stored indefinitely.
But, if you have a donor consent card that alerts the police and medical personnel to your wishes, you have greatly increased your chan- ces of being able to con- tribute to the life of someone living after you.
AFFECT ON FUNERAL
Removal of donated or- gans will not cause dis- figurement of the body or interfere with customary funeral or burial arrange- ments. If you donate your body to medical research, burial arrangements can be

made with the institution.
Organ donorship need not be mentioned in a will. An organ donor card witnessed by two persons (preferably next-of-kin) is a legal docu- ment. By the time a will is probated, it is too late to carry out the donation of organs and tissues.

The search for the “golden fleece” led from one audio invention to another, and at the time of this writing, there are over two thou- sand manufacturers claiming to have designed the ultimate in fidelity equipment.
However, it is relatively easy for the uninitiated to actually walk through and survive the hi fi jungle. The infallible path into the audio world is one’s absolute trust and belief in his own pair of ears. In other words, whatever sounds good to you, is good enough for you. You have to live with the equipment you purchased. None the less, a few words of advice is in order, if - only to safeguard your hard-earned dollar.
1) Listen carefully to the equip- ment that you intend on buying -

does the treble sound harsh at loud listening levels? Do you hear more “rumble” than true bass? Does the vocalist sound articulate. Is the overall sound pleasing to your ears?
2) If you live in an apartment, it is unwise to buy a high power unit. You will never be able to use the extra “juice” except if you relish the idea of an irate neighbour red- facedly pounding on your door.
3) Buy only what you need, which means don't invest in a reel- to-reel recorder if you won't use it for “live” recording.
4) Stick to the well known “names” in the hi fi industry, and check out the “repairs” facilities for the equipment of your choice.
5) Do not play “the price-game.” Sometimes the most expensive units turn out to be real lemons!
6) Be on friendly terms with your audio dealer, especially if you
value his opinion. You might be upgrading in the future, in which

case he is the one to talk about “trade-ins.”
7) Listen to your favorite records and tapes at the dealers, and listen hard and carefully before
you make your decision.

The representatives of some 650,000 consumer co-opera- tive members in western Canada are opposed to the use of aerosol cans and cents-off coupons, and they would like all drink bottles to be of uniform size and shape.
Delegates at the annual meeting of Federated Co- operatives Ltd., held at Saskatoon, almost unani- mously asked that sale of aerosol cans be discouraged, on grounds that they are costly, and dangerous to
health and the earth’s at- mosphere.

of their products also are an extra cost for the consumer, delegates said, and they voted to support the Con- sumers’ Association of Can- ada in its efforts to get the federal government to restrict coupon use.
In the case of bottles, delegates said each company has its own types and sizes of bottles, and this is costly and inconvenient to both customer and retailer. They asked provincial governments to enact legislation requiring all drink bottles to be uniform in size and shape, and to en- courage establishment of cen- tral bottle exchanges for all returnable bottles.

W.I. members hear Games commentary
The regular meeting of the St. Albert Women’s Institute was opened with Marg Dalman demonstrating how to make a hanging moss ball planter. She used spaghnum
_ moss and wire. Sadie Adams then showed the group a handmade cloth casserole cover. It had handles and a drawstring to make it easier to carry casseroles to picnics, pot luck dinners, etc.
Doris Meleshko will be taking her car to the Provincial W.I. Conference at Olds on May 31. There were enough interested peo- ple to fill her car.
Marg Iseke's group will be getting together to make posters to send to the schools to enlist interest in the school's entering a float in the rodeo parade, Letters will also be sent to each school,
Ethel Cuts asked if the group would be interested in working as volunteers at the W.W. Cross Cancer Clinic half a day a month. The group expressed interest and asked her to find out more of the details.
Laurie Dalman suggested that the group do some re- search and prepare an article for Reader's Digest on the

Cancer and women: how to avoid it
Doctors agree fear is a serious problem in fighting cancer. Fear, and the ignor- ance that accompanies it, keeps people from consulting their doctors when they discover their bodies aren't functioning normally.
Ignorance can only be dispelled by knowledge; wo- men should know that cancer occurs most frequently in parts of the body most easily examined by a doctor. Four out of five women will not die from cancer, and this statis- tic can be vastly improved by visiting a doctor at the first sign of trouble, and take these important steps:
*If over 3S, have a physical
examination by your doctor as often as he prescribes.
*Cancer of the cervic can be detected by a simple, painless pap test, and early cancers can be removed by a

Computers
in disguise help with the chores
By William J. ©’ Neill National Geographic Computers are infiltrating our homes and garages almost unnoticed,
They aren't the readily identifiable kind, with key- boards and video display screens, but are buried inside the latest appliances and automobiles.
Housewives who don't know a word of COBOL, BASIC, or the other lan- guages in which program- mers converse with com- puters regularly program the touch panels of their mi- crowave ovens.
Computerized equipment that simplifies housework and makes cars fuel-efficient is increasingly preparing the public to live with the full- blown computer terminals that electronics manufac- turers predict willbe stan-
dard in most American homes in another decade or two.
TELEPHONE INCLUDED
Even the modern tele- phones that allow users to call across the country or overseas by pushing buttons are part of the home compu- ter age, the National Geo- graphic Society points out.
Two of the buttons, mar- ked with symbols instead of numbers, are being pro- grammed for special func- tions such as transferring incoming calls or reaching emergency numbers.

health standards for barbe- cued, roasted or broiled meat, poultry and their by- products and mixtures.
The proposed amendment would*require vendors of such products to meet a microbiological standard for the product as sold. They would have to prevent the growth of dangerous bacteria in the meat they sell. This can be done by using heated cabinets or refrigeration, or good sanitary procedures.
Products would be rec- Ognized as meeting the standard if they have internal temperatures ‘of 60°C (140°F) or more or 4.4°C (40°F) or less, or are stored at these temperatures. Miss Begin noted that the pro- posal protects public health while permitting vendors the freedom to choose storage procedures which best suit their type of product.
Merchants selling Chinese Style barbecued meats have been concerned that current temperature regulations, which require meats to be stored at 60°C (140°F) or more may change the flavor and texture of these tra- ditional products.
An information letter, out- lining the proposal in detail and inviting comments will be sent to the food industry in the near future. A Federal-Provincial Committ- ee to establish the details of the microbiological standard is planned.

lot of people have some pretty strange ideas about Canada’s immigration law. And, as a result, a lot of people suffer from believing them. The fact is, the most reliable information comes from us. In other countries, we're in Canadian Government visa offices. Here at home, it’s your Canada Immigration Centre.
If you know someone who'll have to pass through Canadian Immigration in the near future, you'd be doing them a favour by pointing them in our direc- tion. Especially now that there's a new immigration law.
Now, the new law doesn’t mean a lot of changes for the average immigrant or visitor. Here, nevertheless, are a few things that might affect you or someone
Canadian immigration officers do not discriminate on the grounds of colour, race or religion. Ever.
A new adjudication system gives greater protection to the civil rights of people involved in immigration proceedings. And deportation will no longer be the
only possible penalty. There are now less drastic alternatives for minor infractions of immigration law. The new law does not make immigration easier, but it does make it more pre dictable. If you need to know more, ask at a Canada Immigration Centre.
If you know someone abroad who needs information, tell them to contact their Canadian Government visa office before they make a move.That way, they’ll know exactly where they stand when they step off the plane.

The other day I saw a guy carrying a sign that said “The World Will End To- morrow!"’ He wasn’t a long haired hippie either - in fact he was a high school student. I can’t help but believe that his prophecy is correct - final exam time has arrived!
I know it’s hard to study on the gorgeous summer days, but just think of the summer holidays afterwards. I know that for me anyway, the terror of the exams dims in the light of my upcoming trip to Europe (WOW)!
You know that Litter Blitz I've been writing about lately? Well I'd like to give some credit where it is due. On Monday, June 5, the kids in PITCH and SPICE ‘‘pit- ched"’ in to clean up. Several businesses from the La- combe Park Shopping Centre (Graham Realty, The Royal Bank and Lacombe Park Cl- eaners) made donations to defray costs of the campaign - and to provide some monetary motivation, The Red Rooster kept the stud- ents cool
