Board chairman objects toflood control regulations
Regional Board chairmanJim Campbell objected stronglylast week to flood control regula-tions for the Gulf Islands andView Royal.
The local planning and zon-ing committee of the RegionalDistrict was asked to approvethe regulations outlined by thedepartment of Water Resources.They would require that nobuilding could be constructedwithin 25 feet of the naturalboundary of a lake, swamp orthe sea or within 50 feet of anyother natural watercourse.
The municipal affairs de-partment had suggested the
Body in
water
is namedBody of Liselotte Berliner,
missing from her Salt SpringIsland home since January, hasbeen found in Ganges Harbour.
Body was found May 29 andthis week RCMP at Gangesannounced the identity.
Miss Berliner was living onChurchill Road up to the time ofher death.
No foul play is involved,reported police.
regulations be included in thegeneral zoning by-law so thatany regional rezoning by-lawswould not have to go through thewater resources branch beforeapproval could be given.
"I know those idiots in thewater resources branch will ob-struct every by-law until we putthis nonsense into our generalzoning by-law," Campbell said.
He pointed out that most ofthe coastline of the islands is 100feet or so above sea level, andthe sea is not expected to floodaway.
He said the suggested by-laws would have to go to a publichearing.
'' I am not going to go in frontof a public hearing and tellpeophrthey can't build within 25feet of the waterfront because ofthe danger of flooding; I'd be alaughing stock," said Campbell.
The board decided to pro-ceed with the by-law but theword "sea" would be deletedfrom all the provisions..

Fisher offers no support to fellowtrustee after criticism is published
Dr. J.H. Fisher, Local Trus-tee on Salt Spring Island, haswritten to Premier Bennett and
VOLUME AT VALCOURT'S ISSHOWN HIGHER THAN FACT
It was either type lice or antsthat found their way into theCompugraphic typesetter andcaused an over-abundance ofzeros to appear in a news item inlast week's paper.
The story was on the frontpage and dealt with the protestbeing voiced by Phil and YvetteValcourt over handling of localaffairs by the Capital RegionalDistrict.
The story read that thedisposal system in use at theValcourt Business Centre wascapable of handling up to 10,000gallons of effluent a day and that4,000 gallons a day were beingdischarged.
Cranberry roadbeing widened
Work has been resumed onthe widening of Cranberry Roadon Salt Spring Island. Projectwas begun a few months ago,but was halted while surveyswere carried out.
It is believed that the road willbe widened as far as theintersection with Toinbee Road.
The figure should have been1,000 gallons instead of 10,000and 400 gallons a day were beingdischarged, not 4,000.
Fortyelectfive
About 40 people were presentat the annual meeting of theGaliano Island Planning AreaCouncil last Saturday when fivemembers were elected to theCouncil for the coming year.
Ron Thompson, Dr. HartScarrow and Betty Trimmerwere re-elected to serve anotherterm, and two new memberswere elected, Mrs. Phyllis Staf-ford and Bob Knowles.
Capital Regional Board chair-man Jim Campbell, conductedthe election.
The purpose of the PlanningArea Council is to advise theCapital Regional District onmatters relating to the Com-munity Plan for the island.
Municipal Affairs MinisterHugh Curtis to dissociate him-self from recent statements byhis fellow trustee, C.J. Longe-nay. Dr. Fisher's letter follows:
* * *Premier W.R. Bennett,
Honourable Hugh Curtis,M.L.A., and all other recipientsof Mr. Longeuay's letter of June17,Gentlemen:
Mr. C.J. Longeuay, my fell-ow Salt Spring Island Trustee,wrote to you June 17 andmentioned my name in a state-ment which may imply that I wasin agreement with his letter.
This is to advise that Idisassociate myself with hisletter in its entirety and inparticular with the section of theletter which comments on theactivity of our Chairman, Mr.Marc Holmes.
Mr. Longeuay wrote - "theC.R.D. advised Mr. Roberts andthrough him, Mr. Holmes, thatthe C.R.D. wished to amendtheir requested amendment tothe Salt Spring Community Plan—" This is incorrect: Mr. Camp-bell's request was for the TrustCommittee to table the commun-ity plan amendment.
This was a verbal request -no letter was received by theTrust prior to June 11 meeting.
It is regrettable that the twolocal Trustees did not recall Mr.Holmes' mention of this requestjust prior to the June 11 meet-
ing, but three others present didrecall it.
ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCEIt is true that I stated to Mr.
Longeuay by 'phone that I didnot recall this part of theconversation, but I also stated tohim that I had absolute confi-dence in Mr. Holmes' integrityand that I assumed there was aslip of memory involved, whichis understandable when trying torecall a week-old conversation.
It now appears that it wasprobably Mr. Longeuay's andmy memories which were faulty.
All of this may appear oflittle consequence had Mr. Lon-geuay not seized upon thisincident to illustrate his beliefthat the two elected representa-tives "Have little or no control inour affairs".
I deplore the implication inthe letter that Mr. Holmes wasuntruthful in this matter andalso Mr. Longeuay's unauthor-ized quoting of my telephonecomments out of context toconvey a quite different meaningthan I intended.
is indeep water
Galiano school is in deepwater.
The well ran dry. So GulfIslands School District looked formore.
The board called in JeanLockwood as a consultant andshe searched for water. MissLockwood designated the pointto drill and the board engagedthe driller.
Down went the drill, but upcame no water. When the wellhad reached 300 feet, it was agamble. They had too muchinvested in the shaft to abandonit. So down went the shaft,deeper and deeper.
At 400 feet they had not atrickle of water. It was nowcritical. The equipment couldreach only to a depth of 433 feet.
Then they ran into water: at423 feet down, or within 10 feetof a dry hole.
But the dry hole turned wetand now they're pumping 25gallons a minute.
Parents are happy; the drilleris happy, trustees are happy andJean Lockwood is beaming.
Plans forFender

Car crusherputs paid
to 60 carsA car crusher has been on Salt
Spring Island for the last weekand a half, disposing of junkedisland cars.
The crusher is one of twoowned by Cassidy Auto Salesand has been at Salt SpringTowing and Auto Wreckingsince Monday, June 20. It is amachine similar to SAM, theprovincial government crusherthat was on the island a fewyears ago.
About four loads of crushedcars have been shipped off theisland in the last week. Fourloads is equal to about 60 cars.The Auto Wreckers had or-iginally figured on disposing ofabout 300 cars, but as thecrusher is to leave at the end ofthis week, that target is notexpected to be reached.
Principals named to islandsNew appointmentsto islands

BY DOROTHY E. JAMESThis is Canada week, June 25
to July 1, highlighting ournational holiday on July 1.
Once again the H.M.S. Gan-ges Chapter IODE has come tothe fore-front during the monthof June in various activities andachievements.
At the annual luncheon mee-ting held at Harbour House-June 3 the guest of honour wasMrs. Wm. J. Marquardt, pastB.C^ Provincial President whopresented Mrs. Joyce Parsonswith her 25 year pin for hermembership in the GangesChapter.
Excitement was high whenMrs. Earl Hardie read a nightletter, just received from theNational Education Secretary,Mrs. K.A. McCartney, Toronto,as follows:
"Animal Paintings approvedat National Annual Meeting.Please notify Miss Wright. Lett-er of confirmation to followshortly. Great excitement regar-ding 1979 and 1980 calendars."
This means our own Miss PatWright, noted artist, has had 13of her beautiful animal paintingsaccepted to portray Canadiananimals for each month, pluscover, in the I.O.D.E. Nationalcalendars for two years.
Flowers of each provincehave appeared for the past year.
Mrs. Marquardt, in her ad-dress, described the uniqueCanadian collection of 37 water-colours by Winifred PetchyMarch which depict the nowvanished culture of the Padli-muit Tribe of the Caribou Eski-mo. This will be presented toCanada's newest museum - theTerritorial Central Museum atSilver Jubilee this year.
ROADRUNNERSThe speaker also called at-
tention to the I.O.D.E. Road-runners.
This I.O.D.E.-sponsoredGirls Soccer Team has wonstraight games and challengingtrophies, and is now entitled tocompete in Hawaii this year. Thegirls are selling tickets to helpfinance their trip.
Also described were the"Highlights of being ProvincialPresident" of the Order whichwas founded in New Brunswickin 1900 by Mrs. Black - anotherinteresting story.
Of the 13 applicants fromB.C. for the War MemorialScholarships this year a Japan-ese girl in Kelowna won, andwill go to England to furtherJapanese and English relations.
MAD-HATTER'S PARTYOn June 8, Mrs. A.B. Hall,
of Nanaimo, opened the Mad-hatter's Coffee Party in theJames' garden at Vesuvius Bay,which proved to be a tremen-dous success from the entertain-ment angle as well as financial-ly. Great credit is due to theconvener Mrs. K. Patrick andcommittees.
The most original and amaz-ing hats were a riot of colour andingenuity against the back-ground of the masses of flowersin the borders.
Prizes for the competition sowell planned by Miss MarjorieCuttell and helpers, and judgedby Mrs. E.H. Maguire, Mrs.Tom Toynbee and D.R. Lock-head were won by:
Most original, Mrs. GraceSchat from Holland,
Most crazy, Mrs. HaroldShopland;
Most elegant, Mrs. JackInsley.
The home cooking, convenedby Mrs. George Mickleboroughand Mrs. Roy Atkins soondisappeared.
The garden corner, displayedby Miss Olive Mouat and Mrs.B. Lucas attracted the garden-ers.
The interesting contents ofthe talent table sold by Mrs. J.Sayer and Mrs. Patterson dem-onstrated the versatility ofI.O.D.E. members and othercontributors.
SWEATER WINNERThe beautiful knitted sweater
was won by Mrs. Wally Ed-wards.
The pretty warm afghan waswon by Mrs. R.E. Walker.
The cleverly made bird bathdonated by Mr. Saunders wentto the lucky lady from Holland,Mrs. Grace Schat.

A small child or infantscreaming in the night, thedistraught parents, and the arri-val 'of the doctor is an oftrepeated drama. Now that Ithink of it, I guess that I haveplayed all three roles! Thedisease that is perhaps mostfrequently the cause of this
scenario" is acute otitis media,better known as an earache.
Although adults do get ear-aches, acute otitis is much morecommon in the young. This isdue partly to anatomical featuresin this age group, and alsobecause of the greater incidenceof upper respiratory infections,colds, and sniffles in children.

Ganges' Sdlf
The eardrum lies at the innerend of the ear canal. It forms onewall of the middle ear space, thespace that contains the tinyhammer, anvil, and stirrupbones we all learned about in ourhigh school health course. Themiddle ear compartment is join-ed to the nasopharynx (at dievery back of the nose) by theeustacian tube.
The purpose of the eustaciantube is to keep the pressures oneach side of the eardrum equaland also to provide drainage forthe middle ear space.
Blockage alone allows thespace to fill with a clear fluidunder pressure - a serious otitis.If infection is present, pus fillsthe space - a purulent otitis.Both stretch the eardrum andcause severe pain.
The doctor can view theeardrum with an otoscope, notalways an easy task when theyoung patient is squirming andcrying. The drum has a charac-teristic appearance with thedifferent types of otitis. It maybe bulging under the pressure,or may have ruptured, which
relieves the pressure to a certaindegree.
Treatment consists of variousdecongestants to open the eu-stacian tube, antibiotics to com-bat the infection, drugs for thepain, and frequently myringo-tomy, a surgical incision in thedrum which allows drainage andgives pain relief. Often tubes areplaced in the myringotomy tokeep a drainage path open.
Complications, now seldomseen in treated cases, includehearing loss, mastoidiHs, andmeningitis.

SATURNA SCENEBY KUKLOS
A rainy Friday afternoon didnothing to dampen anyone'sspirits as Saturna School held itsannual Awards Day. Flowersfrom the gardens of Flo andDave Jack, Myrtle and SteveMaskow and Laura and EmCoombs provided colourful de-corations, and a tempting dis-play of home baking, arrangedthrough the efforts of JuanitaHutton-Potts and Terry Siemensawaited all who attended theceremony.
A series of songs in Frenchand English started off theafternoon, followed by indivi-dual readings by members of theprimary class and French skits.Then the awards were announc-ed.
In the younger grades, Kali-ya Muntean was given a bookaward for outstanding achieve-ment in all subjects. Also, CoryBoser and Anya Neumann weresingled out for commendationfor working a good part of theyear in the intermediate room.
Of the senior students, LanaCorkill was presented with abook prize for scholarship, andexcellence of work habits; Tam-my Stewart for achievement inmathematics, and Cory Boser,for being chosen by his class-mates as the writer of the bestterm-end essay. Cory read hiscomposition, as part of theprogramme.

Highlights wereefforts in animation, Bionic Tea-cher and Doomsday, footage oftheir trip to Vancouver, andfinally, a Tour of Saturna theclass had prepared for their twinclassroom in Mississauga, Onta-rio, with whom they had corres-ponded and exchanged ideas allyear.
It was a most enjoyableafternoon for the children, par-ents, friends, official and unoffi-cial relatives.
Barbara Scoones, social wor-ker from Sidney, was happy tohave her regular visit to theisland coincide with AwardsDay.

A century of salmon canning
BY GLADYS BLYTHIt's 'Year 101' for salmon
canning at Port Edward, thesmall fishing village on BritishColumbia's northwest coast.
And with a century of fishprocessing and packing behindit, this community of less than2,000 remains confident that thesea will continue to be theirgreat provider.
While British Columbia'smulti-million dollar fishing in-dustry began on the Fraser Riverin 1870, the first northern plantwas established six years lateron the Skeena River's north armat a site then known variously asWoodcock's Landing, Skeena-mouth, Willa Clough and Inver-ness.
Today, two plants operatealong the six-mile InvernessPassage and Porpoise Harbour:the Cassiar Packing and theBritish Columbia Packers.TOURS
The latter provides informa-tive tours through its fish pro-cessing plants to busloads ofvisitors off tour ships and ferriesdocking at nearby Prince Rupertand to tourists driving across theprovince on Yellowhead 16 andpoints east.
An enterprising missionary,Archdeacon W.H. Collison, sug-gested the site for the firstcannery at Port Edward to avisiting emissary of the fishingindustry at Columbia River,Colonel Lane.
Collison, who had steppedashore from a canoe at thelanding, was introduced to Laneby William H. Woodcock, innand store owner at WoodcockLanding. Lane arrived by theHudson steamer, "Otter".
Lane, a salmon packer, in-formed the missionary of hisintentions of establishing a fishcannery in the area if salmonstocks proved good. ThereuponCollison led the visitor to thewater's edge and pointed out theabundance of salmon in theInverness Passage.
Lane was sold. He immed-iately started negotiating withWoodcock for the purchase ofthe property and the InvernessCannery was built.OPERATED FOR 74 YEARS
Although government rec-ords state the first 3,000 cases ofred salmon was processed in1877, the plant did operatebriefly the previous year. TheInverness Cannery operatedcontinuously for 74 years beforeit closed down in 1950.
In 1889, the North PacificCannery was built adjacent tothe Inverness Cannery. It wastaken over three years later byH.O. Bell-Irving and becameknown as the Anglo-British Co-lumbia Packing's North PacificPlant. Except for two seasonsthis plant operated continuouslyfor 77 years.
Here are some gillnetters of the Port Edward fishing fleet.
In early 1969 it was purchas-ed by Canadian Fishing andafter a year or two of canning.
the machinery was removed. Itis now used as a reduction plantfor fish meal and oil and for

So perish all slimy slugs!BY LILLIAN HORSDAL
On my return trip fromWatson Lake I had to spend thenight in Vancouver.
This is always a pleasuresince I'm able to visit an oldOttawa friend, now residingthere. She was describing aninvasion of slugs in her garden.
Slugs are such revoltingthings! I had never seen oneuntil we came out west to live.They're so slimy!
My hostess explained hermethod of meting out a suitableend to them. After all, they don'tseem to do any good andcertainly they damage plants ingardens.
One night, they all come outof their hiding places at dusk,she rid her garden of twohundred of these disgustingabominations.
How? She goes forth armedwith her scissors to do battlewith the army of slugs.
While there, another friendjoined us and she, too, had beenhaving trouble with the slowprogress of slugs eating theirway through her garden.
The three of us went out.Gwen had the weapon: the
scissors: while Joan and I werethe scouts.
The slugs varied in size fromone to about seven inches.
We would call out, "Here'sone!"
Gwen would pounce, herscissors poised for action. Quick-ly she'd cut them in two and goon to where the next one hadbeen discovered.
In less than 15 minutes we'drendered 73 slugs helpless. Atany rate, that is what we hope.
I doubt that the revoltingcreatures multiply by division.
The trusted salt method istoo costly with so many todestroy.

The Cassiar Packing Com-pany was built in 1903 at themouth of the Skeena River.Ewen Macmillan, the grandsonof Alexander Ewen, one of thefounders of British Columbia'sfirst salmon cannery at Annie-ville on the Fraser River, hasbeen one of Cassiar's owners formany years. This plant has alsorecorded 74 years of continuousoperation and many more yearslie ahead.
The fourth cannery at PortEdward, Sunnyside, was con-structed in 1916 between theNorth Pacific Plant and theCassiar Cannery. Sunnysideeventually came under BritishColumbia Packers' ownershipwhen transferred from the GossePacking Company in 1928. Itclosed down recently.
Near the time of Sunnyside'sdemise, British Columbia Pack-ers acquired Nelson BrothersFisheries, one of the majorprocessing plants in the north,located on Porpoise Harbour,which connects with InvernessPassage.
Documentation by Cicely Ly-ons, author of "Salmon, OurHeritage," indicates this cann-ery was established in 1918. Theplant processes all species ofsalmon as fresh, frozen orcanned. British Columbia Pack-ers also handles flatfish, shellfish, halibut, herring roe andfish meal and oil products.
The five fish plants, oncestrung like beads along the sixmile Inverness Passage andPorpoise Harbour, were separ-ate entities until Port Edwardwas incorporated as a villagemunicipality with the letterspatent placing them all withinthe village's boundaries.RAILWAY TERMINUS
Port Edward was laid out as atownsite in 1907 by a group ofspeculators, who hoped that itwould be the terminus of theproposed Grand Trunk Railway,now Canadian National Railway.When Prince Rupert, on adja-cent Kaien Island, was selectedas the terminus, early plans forthe development of Port Edwardfell through.
So it remained a fishingcommunity until 1966 when re-sidents moved toward incorpora-tion, which was finally approvedon June 29.
Islanderis visitor
islandonDarryl Byron, home from Ger-
many on holiday, is spending hisfifth year with the Candianarmed forces in Germany.
Mr. Byron told Driftwood thathe has so thoroughly enjoyed hisstint abroad that he has signedon for extended service severaltimes.
He lives in permanent marriedquarters, where his neighboursare all Canadian. Despite theisolated living, he reports thathe has learned German and hasfrequent occasion to speak thatlanguage.
Byron is an entertainer as wellas a serviceman. He has re-corded a number of songs to hisguitar.
Camera Club
on Salt Spring
attracts 11Last Thursday evening the
Salt Spring Camera Club held itsfirst meeting at which elevenenthusiasts showed up. Meet-ings will be held monthly: nextmeeting will be on July 14. Theplace will be announced in thecoming events column of thispaper.
While many of Port Ed-ward's residents are employedby industries in Prince Rupert,the village remains predomi-nantly a fishing community to-day.
In its 101 years it hasexperienced all the transitionsand growth of one of BritishColumbia's leading industries;from a small, isolated, hand-operated outpost employingfishermen in open dories to thepresent highly-mechanizedplants employing skilled proces-sors and vast fleets of modern,far-ranging vessels.
