Three arrested on drug charges have bail hearingRCMPA bail hearing was

conducted for three of the individuals arrested on July 10 after a search warrant was executed in Cranbrook.

One subject was re-manded in custody and will appear in court on Monday, July 20. A sec-ond person was re-leased on a $20,000 surety (bail) for court on Monday, July 20, a third individual from the Lower Mainland was re-leased on the condition that he not to be in Cranbrook unless it’s for court, scheduled for Aug 17. A fourth indi-vidual was released by police on a Promise to

Appear for court on Aug 17.

All four were charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, three were charged with Possession for the Pur-pose of Trafficking and one with Flight from Po-lice.

Seized from the per-sons, vehicle and hotel room was more than $4500 cash, more than 200 grams of crack co-caine, 14 grams of MDMA and 76 Fentanyl Pills. In addition police seized a VW Jetta as of-fence related property.

Cpl. Chris Newel says, “The quantities and types of drugs seized are very concern-

ing, these drugs are highly addictive and dangerous. In a number of cases we have found persons are buying drugs that are not what they are purported to be. This in itself is a huge concern.”

Three of the individ-uals were not from Cranbrook but had moved in believing there was a void in the market. Our Cranbrook/Kimberley Crime Re-duction team quickly initiated an investiga-tion and was able to successfully make an arrest and seize danger-ous drugs before they hit the streets of our community.

The usual colourful good times prevailed down at the heroic and legendary Canadian Bocce Championships in Kimberley this weekend past. It was glorious weather all weekend long for another JulyFest festival — see more this week in the Townsman.

ARNE PETRYSHENCouncil got a chance to con-

gratulate the Sweethearts of Sam Steele and the organizers behind the award winning float at last week’s council meeting.

Kelsey Ackert, Sweetheart of Sam Steele, was in front of coun-cil July 13 to introduce the Youth Ambassadors, and to talk about the award that the Cranbrook float won in the Stampede pa-rade.

“We placed first in the munic-ipal float category,” Ackert said. “It is exciting. This is the second time ever the sweethearts have won the float award, and it’s a huge parade, so that’s something very special for Cranbrook to win.”

Jim Wavercan, who organized the float, said this was an import-

ant achievement. “This parade particularly

brings home what the Sweet-heart program does for the city,” Wavercan said. “Not only are we winners in the parade, but our Youth Ambassadors really are the catalyst that makes that happen.”

Wavercan explained that during the judgement of a pa-rade, the judges circulate among all the floats, and the judges ask questions of the Youth Ambassa-dors.

“I can tell you that this year’s royalty nailed it, not only speak-ing about the float, and the signif-icance of the float, and the 50 years of Heart, but of the city and what the program of the Youth Ambassadors does for the city and what Cranbrook is all about,” he said. “That’s what wins in that

parade, so hats off to our royalty because they really brought it home for us.”

Wavercan brought the plaque and the ribbon to show mayor and council.

Mayor Lee Pratt was pleased. “That’s certainly an achieve-

ment for our little town Cran-brook,” Pratt said. “I know that literally hundreds of thousands of people watch that parade live and I don’t know how many peo-ple watch it on TV, but I’m sure in the scheme of things it’s well over a million people, so that’s great exposure.”

Wavercan said there are 2-300,000 people on the parade route and the Youth Ambassa-dors wave the whole time.

mary CLayTonRevelstoke, BC

— seventeen adults, 11 calves (three to six weeks old) and one juvenile caribou were recently released from a mater-nal pen near Revelstoke.

the release is part of a multi-stakeholder pilot project by the Revel-stoke Caribou Rearing in the Wild society (RCRW) aimed at increasing the number of endangered mountain caribou in the Columbia Mountains. Maternal penning is de-signed to increase calf survival by protecting cows and calves from predation during late gestation and the first few weeks of life

Adult female caribou were captured in April and transported to a predator-resistant en-closure and have been tended by shepherds. the released animals have now moved into their natural high-eleva-tion summer range and will be monitored for the next eight months using satellite-linked collars.

During captivity there were five mortali-ties —an adult cow and four calves. the causes of these deaths varied. An adult cow and her calf died due to poor physical condition; three other calves died as a result of abandon-ment, injury (consistent with trampling) and in-fection, respectively.

From the beginning, the project has imple-mented professionally reviewed standards of care. In the interest of improving care and gaining insight into sources of caribou mor-tality, a wildlife veteri-narian re-assessed the caribou, the site and procedures. Recom-mendations from this assessment were imple-mented immediately,

including more rigorous quarantine measures, increased frequency of water changes, removal of standing water, de-creased disturbance and early release.

“We thank the dedi-cated wildlife veterinari-ans who provided assis-tance at all hours of the day and night” said kelsey Furk, President of RCRW. “We continue to work with qualified biol-ogists and veterinarians to learn from our experi-ences and use this knowledge to support ongoing conservation efforts.”

Currently, there are approximately 120 cari-bou in the Columbia North herd. the recov-ery goal is to increase the population to a self-sustaining level of 250 caribou.

RCRW is a communi-ty-based partnership that includes the Revel-stoke Community Forest Corporation, splatsin First Nation, the North Columbia environmen-tal society, the Revel-stoke snowmobile Club, Mica Heli Guides, the Province of BC and the Columbia Mountains Caribou Research Proj-ect.

the maternity pen-ning project is grateful to the many dedicated vol-unteers and funders that make this project possi-ble. Major supporters include the Government of Canada, Parks Cana-da, the Province of BC, the Fish and Wildlife Compensation Pro-gram, the Revelstoke Community Forestry Corporation, Columbia Basin trust, shell Cana-da, Golder and Associ-ates ltd., Downie tim-ber and selkirk tangiers Heliskiing. to see a full list of supporters go to rcrw.ca/contributors

Pictured are Brien Browne and Greg Ross of the Jimsmith Lake Community Association, ready to deliv-er 12 hand made bat boxes to residents of Jim Smith lake. Community interest in bats peeked after a presentation by members of the Kootenay Community Bat Project at the JSL annual summer party last year. Also in 2014, Directors made and installed a nursery box and a two chambered rocket box on a path near the boat launch in Jimsmith Provincial Park. Along with an informational sign, the goal of this project is to raise awareness about bat conservation in the Kootenays. Last week two of our mem-bers participated in a bat count at Baynes Lake Community Centre and helped count over 700 bats and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. With education, there are many communities are now involved in the bat conservation project.

“So their arms were tired at the end of it,” he said. “And there are over a million, on TV, watch-ing what’s going on.”

In addition to that the visits to their Face-book page have sky-rocketed up to 10,800 people.

Then there was also a radio interview on CBC.

Pratt noted that the city does sponsor through some grants.

“It’s good to know that it’s money well spent,” he said.

Pratt also noted that he had some involve-ment with the pageant this year and the Sweet-heart Ball.

“I was amazed at all the candidates and the talent and I know it’s a very good program,” Pratt said, adding that when he spoke to Wa-vercan prior to Sam Steele Days he knew that there were going to be some long nights ahead for him to get that float up and run-ning. “It was an excep-tional float and you did

a great job.”Wavrecan also noted

that his Granddaughter helped him to design the float.

“My granddaughter Amber is the artistic one so she and I sit down each year and design the float,” he said. “I draw a stick replica of what the float should look like and she makes it look real with her art. Her artists rendition of the float was submitted to Calgary for approval. So back in February we have to do that in order to be allowed into the parade.”

Pratt also noted that Ackert must have done an amazing job repre-senting Cranbrook as well, and thanked her for that.

Coun. Isaac Hockley congratulated Ackert and the other Ambassa-dors. Hockley took pho-tos at the pageant.

“This year was out-standing,” Hockley said. “I can’t wait for you buys to see the photos.”

Coun. Danielle Car-dozo thanked Wavercan

and all those involved for all their volunteer time.

“We know what kind of volunteer time goes into something like this, so for yourself Kelsey, and everybody who we don’t have in front of us today, you need to pass on our genuine ‘thank you’,” Cardozo said. “This is important to developing our sense of community and you’ve done an excellent job this year.”

Wavercan added that one of the questions the judges asked him was: did you think you were going to win?

“My comment was: we had former royalty from years back, we had their parents, we had volunteers coming out of the woodwork that wanted to be a part of this,” he said. “If Karma has anything to do with winning, we were going to win. The volunteers that we have tremen-dous and it’s ongoing.”

Pratt also noted that longtime Sweethearts organizer Karin Penner

was sitting in the coun-cil audience.

“Karin I know you’ve been a big part of this throughout all the years, right from the the in-ception of it, and on be-half of council and staff and myself, a big thank you to you too,” Pratt said.

The Cranbrook Lions Club recently donated $3,000 to the Cranbrook Boys and Girls Club to be put towards Camperships at Blue Lake, Pictured from Left are; Lion Bob Duthie, Lori McNeill (Boys and Girls Club – Executive Director) , Alyssa Musso, Lions Curtis Bell and Bill Inman and of course some cute faces.

A r n e P e t rys h e n The City of Cran-

brook may soon be em-ploying its summer stu-dent workers to help deal with the noxious

weeds that are invading Cranbrook’s parks and city properties.

CAO Wayne Staudt said Coun. Norma Blis-sett asked city staff to

look at the possibility of training summer staff.

“We think that is an excellent idea and Pub-lic Works is going to look into that and we’ll

get that as a program going,” Staudt said. “Some of these summer students, we’re fortu-nate enough, some-times we see these

summer students two or three years.”

Staudt said because of that the training would be beneficial.

“Plus it will be bene-ficial to have more eyes out there looking for noxious weeds,” he said. “So we’re going to look into that and hope-fully implement that.”

The city’s engineer-ing department looks after the contract for noxious weeds control for the City of Cran-brook.

City staff noted the contract in place is with Maple Leaf Forestry Ltd. from 2015-2017.

It includes noxious weed control for city-owned properties both inside and outside the municipal boundary.

The priorities have been identified as heav-ily travelled parks, rec-reation areas and road-way corridors, plus city-owned properties adja-cent to these areas where weeds spread.

City staff wrote that a large portion of the work is done via an ATV with attached spray equipment. The Public Works Parks Foreman will look into training opportunities to assist with this program.

City of Cranbrook hopes to train summer students in plant control

“I knew right there in prison that reading had changed forev-

er the course of my life.”So wrote Malcolm Little

in 1965, in a book nobody wanted to touch.

Born in 1925 in Omaha, Nebraska, Little’s life was a struggle from the beginning. His father was murdered when he was six, and his mother was institutionalized not long after. He and his seven siblings were split up and sent to various foster homes. Despite the trauma of parental loss, Little adjust-ed and excelled at school, and was elected class presi-dent at his junior high.

When his grade ten En-glish teacher asked him what he wanted to do when he grew up, Little replied he would like to be a lawyer. The teacher simply frowned and said “one of life’s first needs is for us to be realistic ... you need to think of something you can be ... why don’t you plan on carpentry?”

His need to “be realistic” stemmed the fact that Mal-colm Little’s skin was black.

He left school that day never to return.

Little soon drifted around the streets of New York and Boston; engaging in illegal gambling, drug dealing, pimping, and racketeering. He was known in the crimi-nal underworld as Detroit Red — the first of his numer-ous name changes. His life in this world ended in the win-ter of 1945, when he was ar-rested for grand larceny, and

sentenced to ten years in Charlestown State Prison.

Having no access to the street drugs he had been in using, his forced withdrawal made him so fierce-tem-pered he was soon known as Satan. His aggressive be-haviour frequently landed him in solitary confinement, which is where he discov-ered not only a love of read-ing, but also a fascination with a religious movement called The Nation of Islam.

The Nation of Islam (not to be confused with Islam) was founded in 1930 by De-troit’s Wallace D. Fard Mu-hammad. By the time Mal-colm Little encountered it, it was being run by Elijah Mu-hammad. Little (aka Detroit Red, aka Satan) correspond-ed with Elijah Muhammad, who welcomed him into the Nation of Islam. Upon his release in 1953, Little be-came the most electrifying and charismatic champion of the Nation anyone had ever seen. It was then he changed his name again, this time to Malcolm X.

Malcolm X simply terri-fied people. While the Civil Rights Movement was just beginning to sweep the American South, Malcolm X was having none of it. He re-jected nonviolence and inte-

gration, and preached of Black Separatism via armed rebellion. He felt Martin Lu-ther King Jr. was a “chump” and an “Uncle Tom,” and pelted him with eggs during a speech in Harlem. Mal-colm X and The Nation saw all whites as “the blue-eyed devil,’ and their days were numbered.

“We’re not Americans,” he stated, “we’re Africans who happen to be in Ameri-ca. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from Africa. We didn’t land on Plymouth Rock — that rock landed on us.”

“I am not interested in being an American, because America has never been in-terested in me.”

His fiery stance helped The Nation swell in num-bers, but not all was well in the organization. Very soon numerous rifts between Eli-jah Muhammed and Mal-colm began to show, causing him to denounce it. While the Nation went from plac-ing sanctions and ex-com-munication on him to a death warrant, Malcolm X traveled throughout Europe and Africa, meeting world leaders and royalty. While visiting Mecca he converted to Sunni Islam, which em-braced Muslims of “all co-lours, from blue-eyed blonds to black-skinned Africans, interacting as equals.”

He returned to the States not only with a changed worldview, but a new name, this one Malik El-Shabazz. Although he chronically

feared for his life, he spoke at many college campuses, and now spoke out in favour of the non-violent Civil Rights Movement.

He also agreed to release an “as told to” autobiography with the journalist Alex Haley, for a split of the $20,000 advance Doubleday was offering.

After hundreds of mid-night to dawn interviews, Haley had compiled and ed-ited the work into a publish-able form. But he had no sooner turned it over to Dou-bleday when news came that Malcolm X had been killed. He had been gunned down my multiple Nation of Islam assassins while he was giving a speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Washington.

Unfortunately, Double-day refused to publish it. Nelson Doubleday feared that he and his staff would be

next on The Nation’s hit list if they published it. Haley shopped it around, but found all major publishers had been gripped with the same fear. However, the publishers at Grove Press were no stranger to death threats, having previously published ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ the previous year. With a team of First Amend-ment Rights Lawyers, and a strong show of armed securi-ty guards, Grove Press re-leased ‘The Autobiography of Malcolm X’ in October of 1965.

Nobody was prepared for it.

Part of the shock was Mal-colm X had been dismissed by most major media outlets as a terrorist before and even after his murder. ‘Newsweek,’ ‘The Washington Post,’ and ‘The New York Times’ had all eulogized him as “a blazing

racist,” “a twisted man” “leader of the Negro lunatic fringe,” and bid good rid-dance to “the spokesman of bitter racism” and his “ruth-less and fanatical belief in violence.”

Now they had to eat their words. ‘The New York Times’ was the first who found the book to be “a brilliant, pain-ful, important book,” lament-ing the loss of this “most able, articulate and compel-ling spokesman.”

Malcolm X’s conversion from street criminal to inter-national human rights activ-ists resonated with people of all races, immediately selling 3 million copies in over a dozen languages. Since then it has been reprinted over 45 times, and continues to be a worldwide best-seller. ‘Time’ magazine listed it as one of the top 10 non-fiction books of the 20th century.

Few people are not affect-ed by Malcolm X’s conver-sion from militant hate to hope, and from separatist vi-olence to inclusive peace. Even a teenage Barack Obama “found something in the narrative of a man who was also of mixed race, had lost his father, and needed to create a self.”

The New Yorker re-re-viewed this year (celebrating 50 years since his untimely death) and found it, even after all these years, to be “profoundly comforting.”

Four College of the Rockies nursing stu-dents recently took part in a two-week exchange in Nyeri, Kenya. The trip was made possible by the College’s Interna-tional department as part of the Maternal Ac-cess and Infant Survival for Health Services (MAISHA) project and facilitated by long-time College partner Dedan Kimathi University of Technology (DeKUT).

The four students, Jordanna McGregor, Jacqueline Strauss, Syl-via Breton and Angela Hoover are enrolled in the College’s Bachelor of Science Nursing (BSN) and Practical Nursing programs. Col-lege of the Rockies’ Health, Human and Family Services instruc-tor Jeff Quinn and Okanagan College’s Chair of the BSN pro-

gram, Monique Powell, also participated in the exchange.

While in Kenya, the students were able to observe the instruction and practice of health services from a Kenyan perspective while also learning from the Cana-dian instructors who ac-companied them.

“This was a life-changing experi-ence that I will forever cherish,” says Hoover. “I was able to observe many differences in ma-ternal health care be-tween Canada and Kenya and witnessed many different cultural nursing practices.”

“This experience will never be taught in a class,” agrees Breton. “There wasn’t one day where I felt that I wasn’t learning something.”

The exchange proved to be educational on many levels. “It has

able to enhance my per-sonal sense of commu-nity.”

The learning wasn’t limited to that of the stu-dents, however. Quinn and Powell led several

classes over the dura-tion of their stay and found the experience valuable for their own professional develop-ment.

“It was a great oppor-

tunity to teach, learn and participate in nurs-ing within a different cultural climate. We will be able to use what we experienced in Kenya in our personal teaching

and nursing practices in the future,” adds Quinn.

It was not all work for the students and in-structors. A mid-trip ex-cursion to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy provided an opportunity for them to experience Kenya’s diverse wildlife close-up, while providing a much-needed break be-fore resuming a second busy week at the MAI-SHA health facilities.

College of the Rock-ies’ Manager, Interna-tional Projects and Part-nerships, Moritz Schmidt is pleased his department was able to provide this opportunity to the students and staff and is thankful for the reception they received.

“DeKUT and MAI-SHA coordinator Winnie Koima worked tirelessly to accommodate us and deserves our utmost ap-preciation for being so welcoming,” he says.

“My husband should be a warning to all women planning matrimony.” Felicity Verity

“It’s disgusting!” exclaimed George. “Women running around sweaty and half naked.” He was endeavouring to wind up his wife, Fliss. “And there’s no way they can play soccer like men; they’re built all wrong.”

Felicity said nothing; she is used to her husband’s harangues but I did notice her fingers getting whiter around the handle of the skillet and wondered if George realized how close he was getting into real danger.

We’d been watching some of the Wom-en’s World Cup games and I, personally, had been enjoying the contest.

“How come they call it football? It’s nothing like football,” exclaimed George.

“Probably because they actually kick the ball with their feet, Georgie.” That was Fliss controlling her temper; she’d put down the skillet and, for the nonce, her husband was safe.

George was putting on one of his male chauvinist pig performances, probably because he reckoned I was there to protect him, but those women had played some marvellous games. I’d been impressed by their skills, their strength, their aggressive-ness and their incredible speed.

“They’ll never be as good as the men,” added George, but I butted in. I said,

“They’ll never be as good as the very best male players but they’re already better than ninety per cent of male footballers.” I was sticking my neck out there. “One thing, they’re not as big nor as strong as the best men players.”

“Some of them are bigger than me.” cracked George

“Bigger brains.” Fliss from the kitchen.I laughed, but I had

been amazed at the prow-ess of those young ladies from all over the world.

“They should’ve been home looking after their menfolk,” ventured George, then, “When’re we eating tonight?” Felici-

ty picked up the heavy skillet again and I didn’t think she intended to cook in it.

“Couple more games and then, thank heavens to Betsy, it’ll be all over. CFL will be up and running soon.” George still try-ing to dominate; I don’t know why he thinks he can win.

“First, there are the Pan Am games and we’ll see some great performances — from women. Real athletes. Women diving, kay-aking and even playing rugby. That’ll be great, eh, Georgie? Women playing a nasty rough man’s sport, rugby.” This was Felic-ity getting into her stride. “Big tackles and no body armour and no new guys every thirty seconds. They probably won’t kick the ball much, just carry it. It’ll be like watching a sale at Ikea.” She skipped light-ly back in to the kitchen.

“Prolly purses at ten paces.” George slid

into the living room and I sidled in after him.

It sounded as if Fliss might be throwing things in the kitchen but she turned out a great meal as it always was when the lady put her mind to it.

“Women should be kept barefoot and pregnant,” muttered George over his steak pie.

“You tried that with me, Georgie, then you were supposed to support me and the kids but I had to get jobs to support us.”

George side-stepped that one. “And they gonna wear make-up too, these fe-male rugby players?” he asked. “That American goalie was wearing make-up a mile thick. Looked like a raccoon. And the stupid hair-styles!”

“Careful, George!” I said between mouthfuls. “You seen any men’s soccer? It’s about the only sport where they don’t wear helmets, so some of the guys go wild.”

But I can be a male chauvinist pig too. I find quite a number of female athletes a pleasure to watch. In some of them I can still see my lovely wife racing down the field with her hockey stick in action like some female berserker and my young daughter frightening the life out of me racing downhill on her skis.

Felicity arrived with the desserts and George patted her hand and passed one to me. Felicity grinned and said, “Women are good at co-operating. Men are hopeless. In fact, men are useless. If you decide to have one around the house, he’ll never remember where he should stay.”

OpiniOn/EvEnts

B e ts y B r i e r l e yMy two-year-old grandson does not

use contractions. His mother will ask, “Lachlan, do you want a fish stick?” He will answer, “No, I do not.” It’s a bit Yo-da-ish, but maybe he is ahead of the rest of us, because apparently the apostrophe is in jeopardy.

Mary Norris, a copy editor for the New Yorker magazine, says: “The apostrophe is under a lot of stress, largely because in texting you have to switch screens to in-sert it, and who has time for that?”

The English language is flexible, one reason it is today among the three most widely spoken in the world. How much more flexible can it get? A lot more, it appears. Already there is “wer r u?” and “thx” and “lol,” which I thought meant “lots of love,” but no, it does not. Will we soon be writing contractions as dont and cant and wouldnt?

Spelling correctly may be in jeopardy. As we all know, English spelling is full of rules and inconsistencies. But, wait, now there is the autocorrect feature for your computer device. (Ms. Norris abhors au-tocorrect, although she admits she is free to disable it.) I suggest there is a certain entertainment value. In one of my recent emails “Nanoose” (the bay) became “nanosecond”. My son-in-law, texting his mother about taking a certain photo, wrote, “I can’t get a good shot shooting into the light.” You can guess how the autocorrect feature improved on that, and the “correction” slipped through.

Using the words “text” as a verb and “autocorrect” as a noun are examples of another transition happening within the English language. Nouns become verbs and verbs become nouns with alacrity, it seems. Annoying new words accost us: a panelist on a CBC news program uses “incentivize” when discussing how to motivate people to exercise more. “Prob-lematize” is a verb used in academic cir-cles. (I am not making this up. We may all now problematize the issue of people who text.)

A friend who also gets huffy when en-countering grammar gaffs told me she almost drove through a red light while noting the improper use of an apostro-phe in a very large soap ad. It was “insen-sibly possessive,” she said. “I was hoping that some marketing firm was getting royal you-know-what from an irate VP out in Mississauga. But I bet not. I bet about 14 people noticed... and like me they fumed and didn’t know what to do about it.”

Who really cares? Is not learning spell-ing and grammar rules akin to not learn-ing math processes because the calcula-tor will do it for you? In this age do we need to know the reasoning behind mul-tiplying and spelling or simply how to apply them for what needs to be accom-plished? Cursive writing is taught only at the teacher’s discretion in schools today. Is it necessary to know how to write with a cursive hand when daily lists and notes can be made on a phone and a cheque

can be deposited with an online photo? Isn’t efficiency the point?

In spite of the English language being cluttered, ambiguous, irrational, irk-some, as well as hard to spell, I will al-ways be one of the 14 who notice and object when it is abused. It may just be esthetics; if you are used to seeing some-thing a certain way for decades, adjust-ments can be troubling. Perhaps object-ing merely problematizes the issue.

It has taken centuries for English to develop to this point, through the merg-ing of old languages, influences of the church, the Industrial Revolution, sci-ence, other cultures, emerging issues, computer technology, not to mention linguistic elements such as consonant and vowel shifts, and inevitable errors and omissions along the way.

Words and punctuation become ac-cepted because people use them. What goes into the Oxford English Dictionary with its 20 volumes or into a 600-page slang dictionary depends on us. Surely, there will be a texting shorthand dictio-nary out there somewhere.

We have always been the enablers of change to the language, and change it will. I myself have begun to say “No, I do not” to express with the authority of a two-year-old that I don’t enjoy fish sticks.

Voice of experience

Mike redfernKimberley artist, illustrator

and writer Susan Dancer will launch her second self-pub-lished children’s book August 1, when she will have both hard and soft cover copies of her beautiful little Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest available for purchase and signing at the Kimberley Public Library from 12 noon to 4 p.m.

It is purely coincidental that this story about observing a forest fire from a forestry look-out tower should be released on one of the hottest fire sea-sons in BC provincial history. Dancer started work on the concept 14 years ago with a se-ries of watercolour illustra-tions. Writing the lookout jour-nal first as a poem, she showed it to BC author Luanne Arm-strong at a workshop. Com-mented Armstrong, “Why is it a poem? Why not make it a story?” She also suggested that it needed more paintings.

Dancer spent the next cou-ple of years completing more paintings and rewrote the poem as a prose story off and

on over the 10 years since then. She finally pulled it all together after receiving a grant from the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance in 2014 with a dead-line for completion by May 2015. She published it under her own Blue Publishing label and the hard cover, 32 page, fully illustrated book was print-ed in April. A soft cover edition will be available by the book launch.

Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest is set at the fire lookout in Carbondale, Alberta, be-tween Pincher Creek and the Crow’s Nest Pass. Dancer and her two children spent many summers atop the lookout tower there with her husband David who has worked as a fire lookout for the Alberta Forest Service for 17 years. Fire ser-vice work is in Susan’s blood. She grew up in Lesser Slave Lake where her father used to fill tankers with fire retardant and where she spent 3 seasons working alone in the bush and a period working as radio oper-ator at the Forest Service head-quarters. She has the experi-

ence that lends itself to the story and the paintings. Some of the illustrations relate direct-ly to that experience. The heli-copter in one illustration is the same colour as one of her friend’s ‘copters and the air-tanker in another illustration is the same number 13 as the tanker flown by another friend. But most of the illustrations reference the actual fire look-out tower on which she and her family spent so many sum-mers.

The story builds to an excit-ing climax as the firefighters battle the fire before coming to a quiet and hopeful conclu-sion. The illustrations are in delicate watercolour, full of small details mentioned in the text. It is a book for parents to share with their children and they will probably have to ex-plain the meaning of some of the words. But the pictures tell the story without need for words so a pre-reading child can enjoy it on their own, too.

This is Dancer’s second published book. The first, The Raven’s Letter, was a book

without words, the paintings for which once formed an ex-hibit in the Gallery at Centre 64. In this book the pictures told the story and made the ‘reader’ slow down to look carefully at what was happen-ing in each illustration. It was used in an ESL class and an-other class wrote stories to go along with the pictures. It is worth going slowly through Fire in the Forest, too, so that all the little details can be enjoyed.

Nelson & District Arts Council and the Elephant Mountain Literary Festival se-lected Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest to share the 3rd an-nual Carver Award, a cash award made to new writers in the Kootenay/Boundary re-gion. The award is in memory of the late Richard Carver, lover of the arts and the Kootenays and a driving force in the Nel-son & District Arts Council. The book was nominated by Kimberley Public Library di-rector, Karin von Wittgenstein, who looks forward to welcom-ing you to Susan Dancer’s book launch and signing August 1.

For the townsmanFor four days, Jared

du Toit proudly sported his 2013 Champion bag that he earned for win-ning the 2013 BC Junior Boys title in a playoff over Jordan Lu and Kevin Vigna.

Now he can put that into storage because he has a 2015 Champion bag which signifies his win at the 113th BC Am-ateur at Fairview Moun-tain.

Du Toit played a solid final round, never letting his closest competitor, Stuart Macdonald of Point Grey, get any clos-er than four strokes.

Du Toit finished at (-10) 278 after his final round (+1) 73 to win by seven strokes over Point Grey’s Stuart Macdon-ald.

“It’s pretty awesome,” said du Toit after accept-ing the Bostock Trophy as the 113th BC Amateur champion. “I remember when I was 13, caddying for a friend at the BC Am and I saw the guys in the final group. I hoped and thought that would be me some day and that day was today.”

And don’t think the champion bag isn’t a big thing to du Toit. “I’ve been proud to show off this bag as a champion in 2013 and now I have one for this year,” said du Toit.

Macdonald, the mid-way leader at Fairview Mountain, couldn’t break par on the last two days, ballooning to a final round (+4) 76, which was still good

enough for a (-3) total of 285 and solo second place.

“Hats off to Jared, he deserves this win so much,” said Macdonald. “He played so well, es-pecially when the condi-tions got windy and tough. I didn’t lose this tournament, he won this and I congratulate him on his win.”

Macdonald got to within striking distance of du Toit on the front nine, but the killing blow came on the 8th hole when du Toit made bird-ie while Macdonald made bogey after hitting his drive right. That ex-tended du Toit’s lead to six and he coasted in the rest of the way.

“It was good to have a big lead going into the round and once I ex-tended it, it was just about getting in and fin-ishing,” said du Toit.

Du Toit was a front-runner from the very start, as his first three rounds of 68, 68 and 69 had him no worse than second at any point in the tourna-ment.

By limiting the num-ber of mistakes he made - only one double bogey, along with just 11 bo-geys to go with 19 birdies and back-to-back eagles (made during his open-ing round) - du Toit was the steadiest player in Oliver.

While other players made big numbers all over Fairview Mountain, du Toit kept to a conser-vative game plan of try-ing to make easy pars on

the par-3s and par-4s and trying to make bird-ie on all the par-5s. He was (-8) on the par-5s, which included his only double bogey on the 5th hole in his opening round.

But du Toit really put the tournament away during the final 5 holes during Round 3. Trailing Macdonald by two strokes, du Toit made birdies on all but the treacherous par-4 16th and held a commanding four-stroke cushion which he would nurse through his final round.

Perhaps the moment Macdonald knew du Toit had moved ahead for good was on the final hole during the third round, when Macdon-ald hit his second shot long into the back bun-ker, found it plugged and had to play away from the hole, saving bogey.

But du Toit hit his ap-proach to 15 feet under the hole and calmly stroked his birdie putt into the centre of the cup to give himself double the lead going into Round 4.

While the sun came out on Friday for the final round, the wind kicked up, pushing scores up to the point where only two players finished under-par for the day.

The most important sub-par round came from the University of Washington’s Kevin Kwon, who shot a (-2) round of 70 to move from outside the top 10 to third spot and the

Kimberley’s du Toit Wins BC Amateur

final Willingdon Cup spot. “It’s always a big deal to be able to wear the British Columbia co-lours,” said Kwon. “I’m always proud to repre-sent BC.”

As for his round, Kwon came out strong, with birdies on four of his first five holes. He would make pars the rest of the way, save for bogeys at 6 and 18. “It was so windy out there that I knew if I could make pars after my start, I would move up the lea-derboard fast,” said Kwon. “It turned out to be a good tournament for me.”

The best final round was produced by Royal Colwood’s Keaton Gudz, who made bogey on his opening hole, and then proceeded to birdie six holes to finish at (-5) 67 for the day and (+2) 290 for the tournament.

“I wish I had played better yesterday,” said Gudz of his third-round 77. “I think the differ-ence today was I hit my irons close and made

some putts. I had a lot of confidence standing over my putts today and I made a score that I am pretty happy with.”

Gudz also credited his Royal Colwood col-league Kevin Carrigan for taking him under his wing. “Kevin is a huge role model for me,” said Gudz. “I’m learning so much playing with him.”

Defending champion Jordan Lu had another steady round, finishing at even par 72 for the day and (+1) 289 for the tournament. “I grinded so hard today,” said Lu. “I didn’t make enough putts and with the wind blowing like it was, I wasn’t as aggressive as I needed to be. I thought the scores would be a lot higher. What Jared did, to make the scores that he did, that’s really good on this course, in this weather.”

The Bostock Trophy, donated by Senator Hewitt Bostock in 1895, is the prize given to the winner of BC’s longest running and most pres-

tigious amateur golf tournament. The trophy remains the property of the Victoria Golf Club and is on loan to the British Columbia Golf Association for the pre-sentation each year to the winner.

Past winners have in-cluded Doug Roxburgh, who has won 13 times, James Lepp, who won four consecutive titles, and last year’s champi-on, Jordan Lu.

British Columbia will be represented by 42 golfers at the Canadian Men’s Amateur Cham-pionship, with the top 25 and ties from the BC Amateur earning spots at the Weston Golf and Country Club and Lambton Golf and Country Club in Toron-to, beginning Aug. 10.

Former Masters champion Mike Weir won’t play in his 25th RBC Canadian Open and is taking an “indefi-nite leave of absence” from pro golf for person-al reasons.

Weir said in a state-ment posted on Twitter and that he is taking time off to focus on his personal life and chil-dren.

He and wife Bricia di-vorced earlier this year. They have two teenaged daughters.

“Mike has recently endured some difficult times in his personal life,” agent Danny Fritz wrote in an email to The Canadian Press. “With everything that has been going on away from the golf course, Mike’s golf game has been impact-ed as a result.”

Weir withdrew from his last PGA Tour event, the John Deere Classic, earlier this month after shooting a first-round 73. He missed the cut at his previous eight tour-naments.

The 45-year-old said there’s no time table for his return.

Mike Weir taking leave of absence for personal reasons,

will miss Canadian Open

“Family is incredibly important to me,” Weir said in the statement. “I love the game and will return when the time is right.”

Weir was expected to be one of more than a dozen Canadian players in the field for the Cana-dian Open, which is set to begin Thursday at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ont. He was the runner-up to Vijay Singh in 2004 when he lost in a playoff at Glen Abbey.

That second-place finish came a year after he was the first Canadi-an golfer to win the Masters.

Weir, a native of Bright’s Grove, Ont., said it was “extremely difficult” to decide to miss the Canadian

Open because he loves playing in front of home fans.

“That’s unfortunate,” Golf Canada chief championship officer Bill Paul said in a phone interview from St. An-drews, Scotland. “I un-derstand. We’ll wish him well and be watch-ing him, and he’ll be back for his 25th some-time.”

Weir first played the Canadian Open in 1989 and has been the top Canadian four times. He’s tied for the tourna-ment record for most consecutive rounds under par, a mark he set from 2007-2009.

Canadians Graham DeLaet and David Hearn are set to go right from the British Open to play at Glen Abbey.

ST. ANDREWS, Scot-land — Jordan Spieth was one shot out of the lead and one round away from the third leg of the Grand Slam. Not since Bobby Jones has an amateur won the British Open, and then along came Paul Dunne

with a bogey-free per-formance Sunday at St. Andrews that gave him a share of the lead.

When a shootout at St. Andrews ended Sun-day, 14 players were separated by three shots. Half of them were major champions.

Even for a place packed with centuries of

history, this British Open offered endless possibilities.

Canada’s Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask., had his best round so far at the British Open. He had five bird-ies to finish at 4-under 68. He’ll enter the fourth round tied for 45th at 4-under.

JOHANNESBURG - Knocked off his board by an attacking shark, a surfer punched the creature before escaping un-harmed during the televised fi-nals of a world surfing competi-tion in South Africa on Sunday.

Three-time world champion Australian surfer Mick Fanning was struck by the shark from behind and knocked into the water as he sat on his board waiting his turn during the JBay Open in Jeffrey’s Bay in the East-ern Cape Province.

As he scans the water, two fins appear and with a splash he disappears under the surface. He is next seen furiously trying to swim to safety before a rescu-er pulls him out of the water.

“A big sigh of relief seeing Fanning in one piece,” a com-mentator is heard saying, on the video of the event posted on the

World Surf League website.“I felt something grab, get

stuck in my leg rope and instant-ly jump away. And it just kept coming at my board,” Fanning said, once safe on the rescue boat.

Fanning said at first he swam away but then decided to defend himself and turned to punch the shark in the back.

“I saw it taking my board away and I just started cracking it,” he told a crowd that gathered around him once he was back on shore, referring to how he struck the shark.

“I’m totally fine. I’ve got nothing wrong with me,” Fan-ning said in an interview. “There’s a small depression in my board and my leg wrap (was) bitten. I’m just totally tripping out. To walk away from that, I’m just so stoked. Oh man.”

The World Surf League can-celled the remainder of the

event and Fanning will split the prize money with fellow Austra-lian surfer Julian Wilson, who was also in the water when the attack happened. The two will share second place.

“We are incredibly grateful that no one was seriously in-jured today,” the league said in a statement. “Mick’s composure and quick acting in the face of a terrifying situation was nothing short of heroic.”

Commentator Ross Williams said there are occasionally shark sightings in and around events but an actual attack was very unusual.

“For it to happen in that fash-ion during the finals, where it actually showed that crazy ag-gression toward Mick Fanning, such a crazy thing,” he said on the video.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll feel as if you can handle whatever heads your way. You could be feeling this way all day long, so make the most of it. You likely will be greeted by the un-expected. You will see many fast changes when you go in a new direction. Tonight: Take time to chat with a pal. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your creativity encourages you to head down a new path. This new vision is the result of being able to detach. In the next few months, you will see a change in your romantic life. As a re-sult, you will be much happier. Tonight: Add more spice to your life. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will appreciate some down-time, even if those around you don’t encourage that kind of behavior. You will open up and be more creative once you get some much-needed personal time. Use caution with money matters. Tonight: Let the party go on and on.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. How you handle a certain situation could be much more effective if you detach, ask questions and are willing to re-evaluate your perspective about a key person in your life. Tonight: Catch up with a neigh-bor who has news to share. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Use caution with your finances, and you will avoid trouble. Your sense of humor comes into play when dealing with someone unpredictable who is full of light and energy. Understand what is happening behind the scenes, and move forward. To-night: Balance your checkbook. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Relate directly to someone you care about. This person will be delighted to have your time and attention. In general, reactions today will shock you and send you into another dimension. Maintain a sense of humor. Don’t overthink a situation. To-night: As you like it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Know when you need to step

back and say little. Close as-sociates seem unpredictable. You might take someone’s comments personally and not as they were intended. Keep smiling, and know what results you desire. Life might take an interesting turn. Tonight: Make it a quiet night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your ability to understand where a friend is coming from should be treasured by that in-dividual. Don’t push someone too hard right now. You’ll have an opinion about what needs to happen, but so will he or she, and you might not concur. Tonight: All smiles. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have the capability to turn a situation around if you so choose. Nevertheless, you can’t seem to stay focused on one issue at the moment. Try to be more direct and upbeat in various areas of your life. Let go of what is difficult for now. Tonight: A must appearance. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll push hard to achieve certain benefits, especially in

business and financial matters. Remember that emotional security also is a high priority. Listen to what is happening with a friend or associate who might be far away. Tonight: A new vision becomes possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) A partner, friend or loved one seems to want to push you in the direction that he or she would like you to head in. If you don’t want to head down that path, speak up -- there are different paths follow. Expect a certain amount of flak. Tonight: Be a duo. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel out of sorts as you head in a new direction. What you think you want and what you actually receive could be two different things. You need to lie low, even if someone is being fussy. What happens here could be crucial to your well-being. Tonight: Say “yes.” BORN TODAY Guitarist Carlos Santana (1947), mountaineer Sir Edmund Hil-lary (1919), actress Sandra Oh (1971)

Dear Annie: My wife and I are lucky to live near the friendliest, most helpful neighbors we could ask for. They are a middle-aged European couple who moved to the States two years ago. Here’s the problem. They have a swimming pool in their backyard, and when they use it, they do not wear swimsuits. I assume they are just doing what is normal in their native country. When I am outside, I simply try to look the other way and ignore them. However, when they see me or my wife, they almost always call out to say hello and start a conversation. My wife is not bothered by it, and will go over and talk with them. However, I’m not so comfortable. Generally, I wave and go back into the house until they are out of the pool. My wife says I am overreacting, but I don’t think I should be uncomfortable in my own yard. She does not want to put up a fence, as she thinks it would be unsightly and unwelcoming. Can you help? -- Neighbors of Lord and Lady Godiva Dear Neighbors: You cannot stop the folks next door from sunbathing nude unless there are restrictions in your town. You also should not be reluctant to use your own yard when the neighbors are out. The solution truly is a fence or perhaps shrubbery that would allow each of you to have more privacy. There is nothing unwelcoming or unsightly about nice bushes, plants or flowers. Unless, of course, your wife likes to look more than she is willing to admit. Dear Annie: Why do some people insist on arriving late for family dinners? My husband and I are great-grandparents with the only home large enough to host the entire family. We wake up early enough to set up and cook, and I set the time that seems most convenient for our family members. When there is a football game in the evening, I set the dinner for noon. When there is early morning rain, I set the time for late afternoon. When asked if we can set a specific hour, I always agree. On Memorial Day, I told everyone to be here at 1 p.m. Ten people were here waiting, and the last two came in 45 minutes later. We didn’t sit down to eat until after 2. This is awkward for everyone, but especially for young children who are hungry, seniors who haven’t eaten since early morning, and one family member who is diabetic and needs to time her insulin. Why is it no longer polite to be punctual? -- Late Arrivals Dear Late: It is still polite to be punctual, but some folks are simply inconsiderate. If there is only one couple that does this regularly, feel free to tell them that the festivities start an hour earlier than you tell everyone else. Otherwise, here’s how it works for chronically late family members: Set the time, and when that time arrives, sit down and start eating. Those who show up late can be told to find leftovers in the kitchen or join you for dessert. They will either accommodate themselves or make a greater effort to show up on time at the next family event. Either way, the rest of you should not be held hostage waiting for them.

WORLEY, Jennifer Jay 1958 – 2015

Jennifer Jay Worley completed her final marathon, and it had nothing to do with running this time. Jennifer, beloved daughter of Patricia Worley, dearest sister to Toby Worley, sister-in-law to Liz Worley, aunt to Lauren and Gillian Worley, passed away on Sunday, July 12 in Calgary, her hometown of many years.

Jennifer was predeceased by her beloved father Sheridan Worley, and her brother Cam Worley.

Jennifer was a cherished friend to many. She kept us laughing with her quick wit and hilarious impersonations. Jennifer grew up in Cranbrook, B.C., before heading off to Lethbridge Community College. She graduated from Journalism and started her career at the Lethbridge Herald. Always adventurous, she moved to Calgary, working at the Calgary Sun and then the Calgary Herald. She went back to school at the age of 39 and received her Bachelor of Design from ACAD. She spent the last decade of her life working at the Calgary Herald where she used her skills as both a journalist and designer to bring readers some of the paper’s most popular pages. Jennifer was also a beautiful skier who could make a black diamond run look like the bunny hill. And she loved to travel, exploring Europe, the Far East, Canada`s west coast, Mexico and the U.S. She also loved to shop, making it almost a profession in itself. And anyone who’s been in her backyard knows she had a green thumb. Jennifer also had a passion for reading, knitting, art and music. She loved to hike and bike, and was a focused and dedicated long distance runner completing every marathon she started, including Boston. Jennifer was strong, tough and brave. When she was diagnosed with cancer, it was another marathon for her. She was focused on what she had to do and settled in for the course. She was an inspiration and she never gave up. We lost Jennifer far too soon. It was not a race that she could win, despite her relentless determination to fight it, every second of every day for the past 20 months.

A celebration of Jennifer’s life will be held on Sunday, September 13, 2015 with friends walking together in the annual Ovarian Cancer Walk of Hope, followed by a tribute, Worley-style.

If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to: Ovarian Cancer Canada, 105B 1409 Edmonton Trail N.E. Calgary, AB T2E 3K8 www.ovariancanada.org Telephone 1-866-591-6622.

Lillian (Rusty) Fabbro 1931 - 2015

It is with broken hearts we announce the passing of our precious Mom, Lillian (Rusty) Fabbro, on July 13, 2015 at the F.W. Green Home. Mom worked hard raising her four kids and always made sure we had what we needed. She spent endless hours sewing clothes for us as well as staying

up all night Christmas Eve to finish outfits for the girls’ Barbie Dolls and put together Ron’s bikes. We also had the best birthday parties in the neighbourhood with the most imaginative cakes. Mom was also involved in the Cranbrook Girls Bugle Band as a chaperone for a number of years and always looked forward to the summer trips. She worked at Discount Foods and would always talk about the good times she had with Dean, the Manager.

Mom was born in the old Cranbrook Hospital and lived her entire life here except for a short move to Nelson to attend Business College. She married her forever dance partner, Jim, on June 3, 1950 and they were married at the St. Eugene Mission. They were the life of the party at the Bluebird Hall and won many dance contests throughout the years.

Mom was predeceased by her husband of almost 50 years Jim Fabbro, her Mom and Dad, Sam and Grace Ratcliffe, her sister Betty, and her faithful companion and dining partner Keeko (her dog). She is survived by her brother Terry (Ruth) Ratcliffe, kids Ron (Shirly) Fabbro, Carol Reed, Linda (Dave) Birch and Bonnie Nielsen. She also adored and would keep her cupboard stocked with goodies for her grandchildren Chris Fabbro and Melissa (Mat) Box, Cory Reed, Chad (Jessica) Birch, Chelsea and Krista Birch, Tyler Nielsen and her two nieces Debbie and Charlene. She also has 3 great grandchildren which she would ask about all the time – Marshall and Mackenzie Reed and Camden Box.

We are honoring Mom’s wish of no service and will hold a private family burial at Fort Steele cemetery in August. We can’t thank the staff at the Green Home enough for the care, attention, compassion and simple kindness they showed Mom on a daily basis the entire time she was with them. You are truly a special group of people and we thank you so much for making her transition to care easier.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Mom’s honor to the Cranbrook Girls Bugle Band. Condolences may be left for the family at www.markmemorial.com

Michelle R. SMithAssociated Press

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - On the night of July 25, 1965, Bob Dylan strode onto a stage at the Newport Folk Festival, plugged in an electric guitar and gave the music world a shock.

Wearing a black leather jacket, the darling of the folk movement and singer of pro-test songs launched into a sear-ing, distortion-filled, three-song electric set that brought boos from folk purists but thrilled others.

Fifty years later, it’s consid-ered one of the most important events in rock history, the high-voltage moment when Dylan broke away from folk and helped show fellow musi-cians the poetic possibilities of rock.

The Fender Stratocaster that Dylan played that night sold for nearly $1 million, the highest price ever paid for a guitar at auction. A new book out this month, “Dylan Goes Electric! Newport, Seeger, Dylan, and the Night that Split the Sixties,” by Elijah Wald, takes a deep look at the event. And the three-day festival, which starts Friday, is marking the anniver-sary with a closing-night trib-ute to be performed by a still-secret lineup of artists.

Musicians today still take inspiration from Dylan’s per-formance and talk about what it means.

“It’s the true American spirit to rebel against the establish-ment,” says Joey Burns of the indie rock band Calexico, which is performing at the fes-tival on Friday. He calls it a “moment of turning things up-side down and questioning and rebelling and being true to oneself. Dylan being true to oneself as an artist. And also reinventing oneself.”

Peter Yarrow of the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary, who in-troduced Dylan that night, agrees Dylan was a poet pursu-ing his artistic vision. But he says Dylan’s going electric had a different meaning back then for those in the folk world, which was deeply concerned with social causes such as civil rights. Until then, they thought Dylan, who wrote “Blowin’ in the Wind,” and “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” was, too.

“The audience cared so much about his music and its meaning in the world of that time,” Yarrow says. “To them it was a breach of faith.” Listeners wondered whether Dylan had become a sellout, he says, someone who had decided to “go commercial and let the suits determine what you’re

going to sound like.”Dylan’s performance was

not the first time someone had played an electric guitar at the festival. And many in the audi-ence had already heard one of the electric songs he played that night, “Like a Rolling Stone,” which had been re-leased the previous week and was on the radio. But this was a poke in the eye from Dylan, who had played twice before at Newport, in 1963 and 1964.

Yarrow says Dylan was in-sulted by his position in the lineup: in the middle of the evening, rather than at the end, like a traditional headliner.

Before his set, Dylan told Yarrow he planned to play three songs and would not sing acoustic. Yarrow suggested he begin with a couple of acoustic songs, then tell the crowd he had something new he was working on that he wanted to share. Dylan ignored him.

Yarrow recalls he did a scru-pulous sound check before Dylan played. But as Wald points out, rock ‘n’ roll at an outdoor festival was a novel concept at the time.

Dylan took the stage and launched into a howling ver-sion of “Maggie’s Farm.” Gui-tarist Mike Bloomfield turned his instrument up as loud as it could go. The now-familiar sound of distortion was new back then.

“The sheer volume, no one had ever heard anything that

loud,” Wald says. “A lot of peo-ple just thought it sounded horrible. The band was over-whelming Dylan. The people who loved it were as shocked by it as the people who hated it.”

In addition, the band was under-rehearsed. Some mem-bers had learned the songs just a few hours before, Wald says. They followed with “Like a Rolling Stone” and a third song that they struggled through.

Legend has it that festival organizer and folk music elder statesman Pete Seeger threat-ened to take an axe to the power cord, though Wald says those stories probably stem from Yarrow telling the crowd Dylan was going to get his “axe,” slang for guitar.

While some who booed were upset over Dylan’s em-brace of rock or the lousy sound, others did so because Dylan’s set was so short and they wanted to hear more.

In any case, Yarrow took the stage again and coaxed Dylan back up for two more songs, both acoustic - “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” and “Mr. Tambourine Man” - before he left for good.

Yarrow says Dylan knew the response was “horrific.”

“He was aghast by the re-sponse and said to me, and this is a quote, ‘What have you done to me?”’ Yarrow recalls.

Dylan’s publicist did not re-turn an email seeking com-

ment for this story.But in the 2005 Martin

Scorsese documentary “No Di-rection Home,” Dylan said that at the time, he didn’t know why people booed, but that he didn’t think it had to do with the songs themselves. He said that later he heard Seeger was upset.

“It didn’t make sense to me, Pete Seeger, someone whose music I cherish, someone who I highly respect, is going to cut the cable” Dylan said. “It was like a dagger. ... Just the thought of it, you know, made me go out and get drunk.”

Boos continued in the months that followed, with one fan even shouting “Judas!” at a show in England.

Dylan returned to play at the festival only once, in 2002. Festival organizers say there is a standing invitation for him to play whenever he wants, but he will not be coming this year.

These days, the story is often told as a generational split, a case of a 24-year-old Dylan re-belling against straight-laced older folks, but Yarrow and Wald say there was more to it than that.

At this year’s festival, “if Katy Perry was invited, a lot of peo-ple would go, ‘Oh, my god, no.’ That’s the same split that was going on then,” Wald says. “It wasn’t that people hated elec-tric guitars. It’s that they hated stupid pop music.”
