Mrs. Dan Ralstin built <strong>the</strong> shelter,<br />

shown in <strong>the</strong> picture, on<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir property /or <strong>the</strong> seven<br />

Two Accidenh<br />

Over Weekend<br />

There were two motor vehicle<br />

accidents over <strong>the</strong> weekend. One<br />

'occurred on <strong>the</strong> Prince George<br />

Hiehway, 13 miles north of town<br />

and <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r was a minor accident<br />

in West <strong>Quesnel</strong> early<br />

Sunday morning.<br />

Police state charges may be<br />

laid in <strong>the</strong> highway crash in<br />

which a car went out of control<br />

and ended up in <strong>the</strong> ditch. One<br />

man was treated in Baker<br />

Memorial Hospital for head cuts.<br />

Fred Moxley was charged with<br />

impaired driving as a result of<br />

<strong>the</strong> West <strong>Quesnel</strong> accident. He<br />

pleaded guilty when he appeared<br />

in court Monday and was fined<br />

$50 and costs. In addition his licence<br />

was suspended for a period<br />

of three months.<br />

En One Car..<br />

Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Dunn, who<br />

reside on <strong>the</strong> Nazko Road some<br />

Ifi miles from <strong>Quesnel</strong>, have a<br />

problem on <strong>the</strong>ir hands. A couple<br />

of weeks back <strong>the</strong> Dunn<br />

boys, Jim and Harold, found an<br />

exhausted carrier pigeon on <strong>the</strong><br />

road about 'wo miles from <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

home. They realized at once it<br />

was a carrier from <strong>the</strong> band on<br />

one leg, since <strong>the</strong>y had owned<br />

pigeons at <strong>the</strong> coast. The boys<br />

took <strong>the</strong> bird home and nursed it<br />

back to health. Now <strong>the</strong> question<br />

arises: Should <strong>the</strong>y release <strong>the</strong><br />

bird to let it find its way home?<br />

So far <strong>the</strong>y have been unable to<br />

determine if <strong>the</strong>re are any pigeon<br />

faciers in <strong>the</strong> area who keep<br />

homing pigeons.<br />

Twice in Ihe course of a<br />

week pedestrians have bumped<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir heads on that fire<br />

.ilarm box on <strong>the</strong> light pole<br />

ft <strong>the</strong> south-east corner of<br />

Barlow Avenue and Reid<br />

Street intersection. In <strong>the</strong><br />

first case <strong>the</strong> victim needed<br />

hospital treatment, though<br />

first aid was sufficient in<br />

<strong>the</strong>^ second instance early<br />

(his week . . . looks like<br />

t'^e alarm box will have to<br />

be set a little higher, or else<br />

have some padding applied<br />

lo <strong>the</strong> exterior.<br />

:•; :;:<br />

This modern age . . . when<br />

thr' new nijne schedule goes into<br />

effect next week it will be possible<br />

lo mail a letter in <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

in <strong>the</strong> late afternoon and have<br />

it delivered in Toronto <strong>the</strong> next<br />

day, providing <strong>the</strong> mail' makes<br />

all connections. The letter will<br />

be routed out of here on <strong>the</strong> 5:30<br />

plane to Prince George, transferred<br />

<strong>the</strong>re to an evening plane<br />

to <strong>the</strong> coast and should be in<br />

Vancouver in time to click with<br />

<strong>the</strong> midnight flight east. Wonderful,<br />

what?<br />

Wi'h all <strong>the</strong> claims and<br />

counter - claims regarding<br />

<strong>the</strong> cost of Columbia River<br />

power vs. Peace River<br />

power is it aniy wonder <strong>the</strong><br />

average man is getting confused—especially<br />

when most<br />

of us aren't even familiar<br />

enough with <strong>the</strong> power business<br />

to read our own<br />

Daylight Time<br />

Ends on Suniday<br />

This weekend marks <strong>the</strong><br />

end of daylight saving iime<br />

for 1961. Officially clocks<br />

are to be set back at % a.m.,<br />

which means late risers will<br />

be able to enjoy an extra<br />

hour abed on Sunday.<br />

According to <strong>the</strong> statute<br />

<strong>the</strong> last Sunday In September<br />

Is <strong>the</strong> official date for<br />

<strong>the</strong> ending of daylight saving<br />

time. This .year <strong>the</strong> return<br />

to standard time takes<br />

place a few days earlier<br />

than usual since October 1<br />

happens to fall on a Sunday.<br />

But <strong>the</strong> big point to remember<br />

is, that come Sunday<br />

morning, everything<br />

takes place an hour later<br />

than has been <strong>the</strong> case for<br />

<strong>the</strong> last four months.<br />

Active Again<br />

Break-in artists were busy a-<br />

^ain last weekend. Four places<br />

were entered Friday night or<br />

early Saturday morning, though<br />

only three were reported on Saturday,<br />

with <strong>the</strong> report on <strong>the</strong><br />

fourth being delayed until Monday.<br />

Four tires were stolen from<br />

Peter Vogt's service station at<br />

<strong>the</strong> corner of Fraser Road and<br />

Doherty Drive, while a quantity<br />

of cigarettes was stolen from<br />

Sterling Service. Riverview Elementary<br />

School was also entered<br />

but nothing appeared to have<br />

been stolen.<br />

The break-in at Kingdom Hall<br />

at <strong>the</strong> corner of Elliott Street<br />

and English Avenue was not reported<br />

until Monday, though it<br />

apparently occurred at <strong>the</strong> same<br />

time as <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs. As far as<br />

could-he determined-<strong>the</strong>re was<br />

nothing missing.<br />

Minor Hockey Group<br />

Protests Rink Rote Hike<br />

A delegation representing <strong>Quesnel</strong> Minor Hockey<br />

was on hand Monday evening to protest <strong>the</strong> increase in<br />

rink fees proposed for this season. Association president<br />

Ed. McAneeley acted as spokesman for <strong>the</strong> group which<br />

included Burt O'Handley, Ian Grieg and C. N. Clark.<br />

IMr. McAneeley explained that,worked out in an effect to fore-<br />

it was felt <strong>the</strong> proposed $1 per<br />

month fee would impose undue<br />

hardship on a number of minor<br />

hockey players, when equipment<br />

costs and o<strong>the</strong>r factors were<br />

considered.<br />

Alderman Ritson, acting mayor<br />

for <strong>the</strong> evening, explained that<br />

<strong>the</strong> new fee schedule had been<br />

Rev. C. L. G. Rowland will<br />

conduct a special Harvest<br />

Thanksgiving Service at St.<br />

John's Church at 11 a.m. Sunday<br />

to mark <strong>the</strong> .50th anniverary<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Anglican Church<br />

here.<br />

stall ano<strong>the</strong>r arena operating<br />

deficit this year.<br />

He added that <strong>the</strong> proposed<br />

rate was .arrived at after a review<br />

of last year's figures showed<br />

that operating costs amounted<br />

to approximately $10 per<br />

hour and <strong>the</strong> fee structure would<br />

esssentially meet <strong>the</strong>se costs.<br />

During discussion Mr. Mc­<br />

Aneeley agreed that <strong>the</strong> initial<br />

fee set for Minor Hockey was<br />

set too low, which makes it<br />

harder to adjust to <strong>the</strong> rate now<br />

proposed.<br />

Alderman Ritson agreed as<br />

head of <strong>the</strong> arena committee,<br />

Five Pinners Away In Rush<br />

Opening Scores Im pressive<br />

If mixed five pin bowlers Iteep<br />

up <strong>the</strong> pace <strong>the</strong>y hit in <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

opening week, <strong>the</strong>re should be<br />

some new records in <strong>the</strong> books<br />

l>efore <strong>the</strong> 1961-62 season does<br />

much more than get itself off<br />

<strong>the</strong> ground. For instance, <strong>the</strong><br />

Allen Bakery five, last year's<br />

champions, fired a sizzling 3033<br />

team total on <strong>the</strong> very first night<br />

of team play this season.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r highs last week were<br />

pretty hot stuff too, for opening<br />

week. Colleen Winthrope, who<br />

rolls with All'en'.'^ r.:\kery, had a<br />

639 ladies' high luce, and Lee<br />

Stevens of <strong>the</strong> Biliy Barker team<br />

in <strong>the</strong> Tuesday loop, rolled a 288<br />

ladies' high single.<br />

Lloyd Harper, who turned out<br />

as a spare for <strong>the</strong> Firemen in<br />

<strong>the</strong> Thursday league, rolled a<br />

713 total to share honors for <strong>the</strong><br />

week with Wayne Gillis of Toronto-Dominion<br />

Bank in <strong>the</strong> Wednesday<br />

bracket. Everett Stevens<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Billy Barker had a<br />

fine 412 high single.<br />

Bert Hale of Blue Flames in<br />

<strong>the</strong> Thursday division racked up<br />

711 for his first night, and Wendell<br />

Diakiw had a 698 with Westside<br />

Plumbing on Friday.<br />

On ton of <strong>the</strong>se scores <strong>the</strong>re<br />

were literally scads of players<br />

who topped <strong>the</strong> 600 mark for <strong>the</strong><br />

night. Among <strong>the</strong>m were Harvey<br />

Ci^eland with 669. Burt O' Handley<br />

with 653, Don Winthrope with<br />

657, Pete Couldwell with 654,<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> Kickers dropped a<br />

P—2 decision to Prince George<br />

Germans in a soccer game played<br />

in <strong>the</strong> nor<strong>the</strong>rn centre last<br />

Sunday.<br />

Ralph Irons scored both <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

goals, getting <strong>the</strong> first in <strong>the</strong><br />

opening 10 minutes of play when<br />

he converted a foul kick taken<br />

by Kurt Vock to give <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

its only lead in <strong>the</strong> game.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> half Germans were ahead<br />

3—1. <strong>Quesnel</strong> made it 3—2<br />

early in <strong>the</strong> second half when<br />

Irons connected again, and <strong>the</strong>n<br />

saw Germans pour in ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

three unanswered goals.<br />

The loss plunged Kickers to<br />

<strong>the</strong> bottom of <strong>the</strong> four-team league.<br />

are in front, with Germans in<br />

Sept. Handicap<br />

Set For Sunday<br />

golf competicion of <strong>the</strong> season<br />

has been set for Sunday when<br />

<strong>the</strong> regular monthly handicap<br />

players wishing to compete.<br />

Tournament commiltee chairman<br />

Harry Keen states all o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

club events have been completed<br />

and <strong>the</strong> September handicap<br />

would also have been run off by<br />

now had it not been for <strong>the</strong> large<br />

local group that tripped to Kamloops<br />

on September 10.<br />

p.m. and should provide fans<br />

with somo fine entertainment.<br />

Babe Ruth play-offs were decayed<br />

when teams were decimated<br />

at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> league<br />

through players being awr.y on<br />

vacation. It was decided <strong>the</strong>n<br />

that <strong>the</strong> local play-offs would be<br />

staged after school started for<br />

<strong>the</strong> fall term.<br />

Last weekend <strong>the</strong> semi-finals<br />

were decided on a sudden-death<br />

basis, with Braves gaining a<br />

spot in <strong>the</strong> finals when Dodgers<br />

were unable to field a full team<br />

and had to default.<br />

Cards hitched up with Cubs<br />

and came through with a 10—6<br />

decision to win <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r spot<br />

in <strong>the</strong> final.<br />

Soda Creek Is Host To<br />

Recreation Conference<br />

Eight Recreation Commis<br />

sions were represented at <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Cariboo</strong>-Central B.C. Recreation<br />

Conference held last Saturday at<br />

Soda Creek. Delegates were on<br />

hand from Bouchie Lake, Red<br />

Bluff, Kersleyi McLeese Lake,<br />

Alexandria, Roe Lake and Williams<br />

Lake, in addition to <strong>the</strong><br />

host commission of Soda Creek.<br />

Initial business dealt with a<br />

discussion of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong> Recreational<br />

Leadership Training<br />

School to be held at Williams<br />

Lake on October 13 and , 14.<br />

Courses and course content were<br />

explained as well as o<strong>the</strong>r pertinent<br />

details dealing with <strong>the</strong><br />

school itself.<br />

Outlines of <strong>the</strong> program were<br />

given by Recreational Counsellors<br />

McCooey and Mayers.<br />

In a discussion of <strong>the</strong> B.C. Recreation<br />

Association and <strong>the</strong> annual<br />

conference held in Penticton<br />

last May, it was decided that<br />

a resolution be forwarded to <strong>the</strong><br />

BCRA executive asking that <strong>the</strong><br />

w'^ole matter of zone delegates<br />

|.p reviewed as soon as possible<br />

with specific reference to a<br />

breakdown of <strong>the</strong> provincial<br />

zones and <strong>the</strong> duties and responsibilities<br />

of zone representatives.<br />

It was fur<strong>the</strong>r resolved that<br />

<strong>the</strong> zone representative to <strong>the</strong><br />

1932 BCRA conference be picked<br />

from among those commissions<br />

which will be sending delegates<br />

to <strong>the</strong> conference, and that such<br />

delegate be named immediately<br />

prior to <strong>the</strong> conference itself.<br />

The meeting also resolved that<br />

it would be a great advantage<br />

to all Recreation Commissions<br />

if a research program was carried<br />

out by <strong>the</strong> Victoria headquarters<br />

to determine <strong>the</strong> most<br />

popular forms of recreation being<br />

carried out by <strong>the</strong> various<br />

local commissions throughout<br />

<strong>the</strong> province.<br />

In closing it was decided that<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong> and Central B.C.<br />

area commissions split for <strong>the</strong><br />

purpose of holding annual conferences.<br />

A questionnaire will<br />

be circulated to determine <strong>the</strong><br />

time and place for next year's<br />

<strong>Cariboo</strong> Conference.<br />

The session closed with an address<br />

by Keith Maltman, former<br />

Recreation Counsellor for ths<br />

Nor<strong>the</strong>rn B.C. area, who is now<br />

located in <strong>the</strong> Okanagan. Mr.<br />

Mailman's talk dealt with sports<br />

and <strong>the</strong> importance of physical<br />

fitness.<br />

Final resolution to be adopted<br />

New Safety Code<br />

For B.C. Loggers<br />

A new code of safety regulations<br />

for B.C.'s 15,000 loggers<br />

went into effect September 15.<br />

The Workmen's Compensation<br />

Board announced that sweeping<br />

revisions have Ijeen made to<br />

keep pace with <strong>the</strong> new equipment<br />

and procedures now being<br />

used in logging.<br />

Highlight of <strong>the</strong> revised regulations<br />

is a completely new aoproach<br />

in logging signals, <strong>the</strong><br />

purpose of which is to simplify<br />

instructions in <strong>the</strong> movement of<br />

heavy equipment and lessen <strong>the</strong><br />

hazards to workmen.<br />

WCB Accident Prevention Director,<br />

Arthur Francis, said that<br />

both management and labor<br />

worked toge<strong>the</strong>r in a spirit of<br />

co-operation to help formulate<br />

<strong>the</strong> new code.<br />

Public hearings were held by<br />

<strong>the</strong> WCB in May and June of this<br />

year to give representatives<br />

from logging firms and <strong>the</strong> International<br />

Woodworkers of<br />

America <strong>the</strong> opportunity to air<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir views on <strong>the</strong> regulations.<br />

Both groups submitted <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

suggestions, many of which were<br />

incorporated into <strong>the</strong> new code.<br />

Copies of <strong>the</strong> regulations have<br />

been printed in pocket size form<br />

and are being distributed<br />

throughout <strong>the</strong> logging industry.<br />

Former Residents<br />

Now Visiting Here<br />

(Mr. and Mrs. William Norman,<br />

holidaying in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong>,<br />

ten of <strong>the</strong>ir experiences in Australia<br />

where <strong>the</strong>y have lived for<br />

<strong>the</strong> last 10 years, since leaving<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> in 1951.)<br />

We left <strong>Quesnel</strong> early in 1951,<br />

travelling to Australia via <strong>the</strong><br />

U.S.A. England and <strong>the</strong> Continent,<br />

arriving in Australia 12<br />

months later. After staying with<br />

friends in West Australia, we<br />

proceeded to Queensland, visiting<br />

Adelaide, Melbourne and<br />

Sydney on <strong>the</strong> way. There we<br />

bought land not far from Brisbane<br />

and raised bananas and<br />

pineapples. After several years<br />

we sold cut, took a trip fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />

north and bought property overlooking<br />

<strong>the</strong> Pacific Ocean, not<br />

far from <strong>the</strong> Barrier Reef.<br />

This was in a prosperous<br />

sugar-cane area. Our local city<br />

is a very beautiful city, air-con­<br />

ditioning is fairly general. Although<br />

<strong>the</strong> car ratio is comparable<br />

with Detroit and Los Angeles,<br />

we have no need for parking<br />

meters, traffic signals or<br />

•raffic police. Population is 23,-<br />

000. The streets are very wide<br />

and many lined with beautiful<br />

flowering trees.. The capita!<br />

cities have everything that San<br />

Francisco and New York have.<br />

We returned in June to visit<br />

wil^h our daughter Billie (Mrs.<br />

.Arne Sorensen) and five grandchildren<br />

in North Vancouver,<br />

and bene to stay over Christmas<br />

and New Year with <strong>the</strong>m. On<br />

our visit to <strong>Quesnel</strong> we have<br />

stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Doug<br />

Well.=; and have met dozens of<br />

old friends and acquaintances.<br />

The warmth of our welrome has<br />

overwhelmed us. We love <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Cariboo</strong> and it will always be<br />

our second home.<br />

IK/. Corner<br />

We haven't had any official<br />

report on <strong>the</strong> results of <strong>the</strong> Tree<br />

Fruits Contest, but via <strong>the</strong><br />

grapevine we have heard that<br />

Penticton came first. Then in a<br />

letter from Provincial Director,<br />

Mrs. Verna Braden, of Dawson<br />

Creek, who was judging at <strong>the</strong><br />

Fort Fraser Fall Fair, we hear<br />

that Fort Fraser came third.<br />

They are quite proud of <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />

and are entitled to be after<br />

winning first prize provincially<br />

for <strong>the</strong>ir chair seat covers<br />

earlier in <strong>the</strong> year.<br />

While <strong>the</strong> <strong>Quesnel</strong> Fall Fair is<br />

Fresh in cur minds, may we explain<br />

to all those people who<br />

wondered why <strong>the</strong>re was only<br />

one W.I. Display put up this<br />

year. For most W.I.s in <strong>the</strong> district<br />

it is becoming impossible<br />

to find all <strong>the</strong> articles of handicrafts<br />

necessary to put up a display.<br />

NEWS<br />

Like lumps of rancid butter<br />

<strong>the</strong> legitimate complaints of<br />

women are discarded with <strong>the</strong><br />

champagne empties and squandered<br />

bottles by <strong>the</strong> male intelligentsia,<br />

who seem to be responsible<br />

for most of our irritations.<br />

Though we have been deemed<br />

semi-intelligent by <strong>the</strong> opposite<br />

sex our opinions are treated as<br />

mere fat-headed fantasies.<br />

By telephone, letter and over<br />

coffee cups I hear <strong>the</strong> same<br />

scathing denunciations of <strong>the</strong><br />

minor trivialities that plague <strong>the</strong><br />

day-to-day living of <strong>the</strong> woman<br />

who is trying to run a home or<br />

while hustling to make <strong>the</strong> green<br />

to be one more statistic added<br />

to <strong>the</strong> two people who were punctured<br />

by its sharp corners in <strong>the</strong><br />

past week.<br />

Perhaps <strong>the</strong> Town Fa<strong>the</strong>rs<br />

can push -this problem info <strong>the</strong><br />

limbo of things ignored, but that<br />

will not assuage <strong>the</strong> feelings of<br />

one tourist and one work-bound<br />

toiler who had to have medical<br />

attention, including one inhalator<br />

call, before proceeding on<br />

ONE-WAY SIGNS NEEDED<br />

Belligerent and blistering are<br />

<strong>the</strong> grumbles from <strong>the</strong> market<br />

places where shopping is done.<br />

Take one of those bumbling<br />

baskets or animated carts and<br />

try to run <strong>the</strong> gauntlet of <strong>the</strong><br />

aisle. You will feel a vibrant<br />

urge to ram <strong>the</strong> side-winding<br />

shopper flipping one of those<br />

solid contraptions in your direction.<br />

Or <strong>the</strong> shelves that are<br />

always being stacked with piles<br />

of merchandise by cooly efficient<br />

clerks, no matter what time<br />

you choose to replenish <strong>the</strong> family<br />

larder, making you detour<br />

and forsake <strong>the</strong> hidden goodies.<br />

Then <strong>the</strong>re is <strong>the</strong> obstacle<br />

trot, designed to inveigle money<br />

from your purse in <strong>the</strong> purchase<br />

of bargains, with king - size<br />

mounds of tins rising in diabolical<br />

order in tlie centre aisles,<br />

awaiting a misplaced toe to topple<br />

<strong>the</strong> tipsily balanced pile to<br />

<strong>the</strong> floor, leaving <strong>the</strong> customer<br />

in agonized embarrassment and<br />

with a smouldering resentment<br />

against <strong>the</strong> management.<br />

been able to get to <strong>the</strong> hospital<br />

by car before contact with town<br />

offer no solutions.<br />

Time For A Decision<br />

Now that <strong>the</strong> new <strong>Quesnel</strong> River<br />

britfee is in use <strong>the</strong> town is face to<br />

face with <strong>the</strong> problem of what is to<br />

became of <strong>the</strong> old bridge. Some considerable<br />

time back, when <strong>the</strong> new<br />

bridge was little more than a gleam<br />

in an architect's eye, town, council was<br />

informed that <strong>the</strong> Department of<br />

Highways would dismanUe <strong>the</strong> old<br />

.structure in due.time after <strong>the</strong> opening<br />

of tbe new crossing.<br />

There was some mdication that due<br />

time might be a period of three or<br />

more years after <strong>the</strong> new bridge went<br />

into service. This is all well and<br />

but that old bridge still provides a<br />

handy link with that portion of <strong>the</strong><br />

town on <strong>the</strong> south shore of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

River.<br />

Now that everyone has had time to<br />

assay <strong>the</strong> situation <strong>the</strong> importance of<br />

<strong>the</strong> bridge has increased in stature,<br />

and its removal could easily be a blow<br />

to a very considerable portion of <strong>the</strong><br />

mu tiirijv^lity.<br />

Should <strong>the</strong> bridge be torn down tbe<br />

town will immediately be faced with<br />

<strong>the</strong> pcoblein of providing an alternate<br />

means of getting Avater to <strong>the</strong> Johnston<br />

sub-division area. The fire brigade is<br />

also concerned for <strong>the</strong>re is a consid­<br />

erable difference in <strong>the</strong> time it would<br />

take to reach that portion of <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

via <strong>the</strong> new route.<br />

Industry also can still benefit from<br />

<strong>the</strong> old bridge, even though loads it<br />

can handle.must be restricted.<br />

It.b-some time since any major repair<br />

has been caiTied out on this old<br />

bridge, and it is said to be in such<br />

condition that restoring it to full service<br />

would be e.^tretnely costly.<br />

Now appears to be <strong>the</strong> time to get<br />

right do^vn to cases and find out ]ust<br />

what expense \vouId be entailed. Taking<br />

over that bridge could be an expensive<br />

undertaking for <strong>the</strong> town.<br />

On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand it may be a step<br />

that must be taken, particularly if<br />

it is found that <strong>the</strong> old bridge can be<br />

jnaintained in a generally serviceable<br />

. condition at a relatively modest cost.<br />

Even if it was used only for Hght<br />

to medium vehicular traffic, and for<br />

foot traffic, it would still be a valuable<br />

asset to this community, and one that<br />

might continue to serve <strong>Quesnel</strong> well<br />

for some considerable time to come.<br />

So far <strong>the</strong> fate of <strong>the</strong> old bridge has<br />

been discussed pretty much in <strong>the</strong><br />

fashion of a generality. It seems to us<br />

<strong>the</strong> time has arrived for <strong>the</strong> reaching<br />

of a definite understanding.<br />

Offer A Helping Hand<br />

Like aU serious disabilities, bhndness<br />

does not choose its. victims. It<br />

strikes young and old, rich and poor,<br />

men and women. No one .can say, "It<br />

can't happen to me". It has happened<br />

to more than 2,544 persons m British<br />

Columbia and <strong>the</strong> Yukon and new<br />

cases are bemg reported each week.<br />

In our modem society most real<br />

needs are bemg met by special services.<br />

BImdness js no exception. It is<br />

fortunate for ,those who are bhnd<br />

and for - those who w.ill mevitably<br />

become blind that <strong>the</strong>re is an organization<br />

No Room For Gang Tactics<br />

Ll a world shaken by unprecedented<br />

violence and riven fay political<br />

moral and racial hatreds, <strong>the</strong> Okanagan<br />

Valley as a whole is a remarkably<br />

peaceful place.<br />

We have very little premeditated<br />

serious crime, due partly to our ra<strong>the</strong>r<br />

isolated geographical position, and a<br />

complete absence of professional criminals.<br />

What crime we do have is mostly<br />

of Hie strictly small town variety-<br />

The Okanagan does share, however,<br />

that peculiar phenomenon of<br />

our age, a tmy minority of youngsters<br />

whose activities range from <strong>the</strong> merely<br />

high-spnited to downright vicious.<br />

. Througout <strong>the</strong> North American continent,<br />

disrespect for law, order, and<br />

property is bemg seriously challenged<br />

by <strong>the</strong> comparatively new concept<br />

of gang action. Our suggestion is not<br />

that this situation is likely to sweep<br />

<strong>the</strong> placid Okanagan, but signs of<br />

danger do exist.<br />

Parents and community leaders<br />

should lake a serious view of <strong>the</strong><br />

increasingly frequent practice of assaulting<br />

policemen. It is more true<br />

today than in Gilbert and Sullivan's<br />

time when <strong>the</strong> truism that a<br />

policeman's lot is not a happy one was<br />

first popularized.<br />

Almost equally alarming is <strong>the</strong> accepted<br />

situation where members of<br />

<strong>the</strong> public do not feel <strong>the</strong> slightest<br />

need to come to <strong>the</strong> aid of any police<br />

constables who may be engaged by<br />

two, three or more young toughs.<br />

In Vemon last week was a particularly<br />

unpleasant example of <strong>the</strong> situation<br />

cited above.<br />

The pubUc should be thankful<br />

that we in <strong>the</strong> Okanagan have not yet<br />

reached <strong>the</strong> point where streets are<br />

not safe at certain hours. Vancouver<br />

has this problem to a degree that is a<br />

cause of real concern.<br />

What we should insist upon as a<br />

matter of right Js <strong>the</strong> public's continued<br />

safety on <strong>the</strong> thoroughfares<br />
