tion busing in Boston but it certainly has sparked its share of controversy, par- ticularly in the case of Akinsdale residents. Children attending Pro- testant School District junior
high schools and residing in the Akinsdale subdivision are presently being bused across the city to Lacombe Park. Parents of these children are assessed a fee of $40 per child or $80 per
family. Next fall that fee will double (to $80 and $160) and this has parents furious. They feel that the board’s ‘optional’ busing fee is really not optional in their case. No school (either public or sep-

survey is currently under- way, but plans for the cemetery must be submitted to the Edmonton Regional Planning Commission for subdivision approval. A pos- sible alternative to getting the commission's approval, he said, may be a direct appeal to the province. Because the land for the cemetery is crown land normal subdivision approval may be unnecessary.
Mr. Byron said several other matters must also be worked out. The public works department is studying me- thods of operating a ceme- tery and considering what specialized equipment may be needed. The city clerk is looking at the administrative needs of a cemetery; pre- paring forms, certificates, and records for burials.
Also, Mr. Byron said, a cemetery must be laid out properly. Road and walkways must be built and plots mapped cut. The city has approached a firm for quotes to do this preliminary work,
And lastly, a bylaw must be prepared and presented to council for the operation of the cemetery, outlining fees and procedures.
‘hope the council will appreciate this is a very complex matter,’’ Mr. Byron concluded, He said most of these matters are already underway, but he couldn't estimate when they'd be done. *'The city has never gone through this before and it's beyond St. Albert to know,"’ he said later,
The cemetery, located east of St. Albert adjacent to the Poundmaker Lodge site, will be shared by the city and the Royal Canadian Legion. Its purchase price from the gov- ernment is one dollar,
Some members of council held up acquisition of the land for several months, arguing that the property was too far from the city, that roads leading to it were in terrible condition, and that there was too much un- certainty about future land uses in the area. The aldermen agreed to acquire the land at their May 7th meeting.

The nearby schools - Lorne Akins, Leo Nickerson and Sir Alexander Mackenzie are at capacity serving resid- ents of Sturgeon, Forest Lawn and Braeside. W.D. Cuts school in Lacombe Park was the only school with excess capacity and the board opted to send the Akinsdale students there. Parents and ratepayers attending a public meeting Thursday in Paul Kane High School appeared willing to accept the fact that busing
was necessary. They were not willing to accept paying a fee of $80 per student for the ‘privilege’. As Akinsdale spokesman Jim Hoffman put it, ‘Busing is a real out-of- pocket cost to some people."’ He said his group would like to. participate in providing an answer to a busing policy for the District.

Council approves St. Albert's
first meters
Get your nickels and dimes ready. St. Albert's first parking meters will be in use this fall.
City council agreed to install the meters, scheduled for the first week of Sep- tember, at the St. Albert Day Care Centre.
Increased use of the present parking lot by patrons of the nearby pool and students from Paul Kane High School have made the
meters necessary. Staff at the day care centre have been finding it increasingly difficult to find parking for themselves, council was told.
In voting for the parking meters, council also agreed to study some method of reserving spaces for staff at the day care centre.

City to act
against drive-in
Prompted by a citizens delegation, city council agreed Monday night to start clamping down on operations at the St. Albert Drive-in theatre.
Motions were passed which authorize city staff to contact the theatre operators about reducing noise levels, which request the RCMP to increase their patrols in the area, and which request the Alberta Board of Censors to decide if restricted movies can be shown at residential drive-in theatres.
The aldermen also asked staff to study the feasibility of a bylaw which will control operating hours of any business which operates out- doors and is located near a residential area.
In introducing the motion
for such a bylaw, Alderman Liesbeth Bakker suggested that businesses within one- half mile of residences should be affected by it, and that 11 p.m. was a rea- sonable hour for closure.
The drive-in is situated north of Levasseur Road between Grandin and Ger- vais Roads. Its shows often run until 4 a.m. That, said resident John Koster, is far too late for a place that’s located so near sleeping homeowners.
Mr. Koster told council that speakers not in use are often turned up to full volume, keeping his family and his neighbors awake until 2 a.m, or later during the summer.

busing
Continued From Page Al Albert taxpayers. He did say, *‘Our (the taxpayers) pocket- book is being harrassed every damn day and it's getting a little thin.’’ (Mr. Hoffman and group were not only upset over the bus rate increase but, also felt the board showed no restraint in its April 11 budget).
Several members of the public stepped to micro- phones in the aisle to address the board on the subject of busing.
Bert LaBuick reminded trustees, ‘Why were we told (by the previous board) three years ago that busing was cheaper than building sch- ools? This (they said) was the way to go. The province will support us (the district) and it won't cost us a darn cent. Now I'm just wondering whose kidding who?’’ He asked why busing costs were increasing when bus loads should be decreasing.
Trustee Garry Hodgins replied that if ratepayers with children attending sch- ools less than 1% miles from home could be convinced to

ask their children to walk, then indeed would bus loads decrease. However, he said, many of these wanted their children on the bus and he also must represent that segment of District 6 rate- payers. Another way to eliminate bus fees aid Mr. Hodgins, would be to elim- inate a program instead.
Another ratepayer asked what the board would do if a parent could not afford the bus fee. He was told that if, in the District's assessment, the fee was not affordable by a particular individual it would be waived.
One person pointed out to board members that she did not feel the bus fee was optional on pure physical grounds. She said to get small children dressed, fed and ready to walk to school a mile or so away would mean getting up at S a.m.
A show of hands was largely in favor of subsidized busing and most ratepayers present also favored setting up a committee to study the situation.
FRUSTRATION THINS MEMBERS
But by the time any consensus on the make up or power of the proposed committee could be arrived at most people had left. the gymnasium. They were frus- trated in discovering that the board had no intention of altering the budget, public meeting or not. Board Chairman Wes Penner told them ‘‘we (the board) came to discuss it, not to revise it.’’ The budget is set and the board obviously intends to live by it,
A number of people, including former Board Chairman Bill Webber att- acked the board for its approval of hefty increases in honoraria (June 1978) and expense allowances (January 1979). Trustees now make $3,600 per year (up from $1,700) with a $180 per day expense account for trips outside a SO kilometer radius
of St. Albert.
Mr. Webber also said the board should make _ its decision on busing and stick it. After all the public had elected it to do just that.
Ex-St. Albert councillor John Bakker suggested that the ratepayers circulate a petition which would give the proposed committee some **teeth.’’ He also said that the committee should have a **neutral chair’’ and that a committee of ‘‘outsiders"’ should assess trustee hon- oraria.
Alderman Margaret Smith pointed out that any com- mittee formed at the Paul Kane meeting would likely not be representative of all taxpayers in the district. She suggested ratepayers whose children do not use the bus, or who do not have children, also be included on any committee,
On the budget itself a few ‘interesting’ comments were tossed forward. Two people, including former Community Services Advisory Board member Gerry Jaycocks, referred to it as ‘‘disgus- ting’’ with Jaycock also adding the adjective ‘*des- picable,"’
On the other side of the coin, W.D, Cuts Principal Barry Findlater told those gathered that the ‘‘luxur- ious'' budget they were attacking did in actual fact fall short of the needs of ‘quality education,’’ He said that his school was in need of more staff to cope with student educational needs.
The end result of all the discussion was a consensus to call a meeting at which a committee would be formed to make recommendations to the board on busing in the district. The board is at liberty to do what it wishes with the recommendations. A meeting has been set for 7:30 p.m, Tuesday, June 26 in the district office on Sir Winston Churchill Avenue. Both those for and against the board's ‘‘User Pay"’ busing policy are advised to attend if they desire input

drive-in
Continued From Page Al blem isn't quite so great in winter, he said, because the theatre's hours are reduced.
Mr. Koster said the content of movies at the drive-in is the second major complaint that he and his neighbors have. ‘‘The maj- ority of movies shown at the drive-in theatre are restric- ted for adults,’’ he said. With their obscenity and nude scenes, such films aren't suited to family neighborhoods. Most famil- ies have children, he said, and the drive-in'’s viewing sereen is visible throughout the area.
Alderman Ayotte remin- ded Mr. Koster that ‘‘the drive-in was there before you moved in. Did you not anticipate these problems?”
Mr. Koster agreed that some problems were antici- pated, but said he and his neighbors thought the city’s bylaw restricting noise after 10 p.m. would've had some effect on the drive-in's operation, He added that the content of many of the films at the theatre had changed considerably since he moved in five years ago. Nude scenes and foul language have become much more prevalent, he said.
Commenting on Mr. Kos- ter's complaints, Alderman
Rod Throndson said ‘I'm not exactly what you'd call a prude. There is a place for restricted movies but not in a
residential area.'’ He added @
the most of the noise from the drive-in, stems from roving teenagers who ar¢ cutting the fence, breaking in, turning up the unused speakers to full volume and then going outside the fence to drink beer and watch the movie.
He said the drive-in's operators have told them they can't stop this practice because it’s just too com mon, but he's not satisfied with their excuse. Stronger fences or better supervision and policing are needed, he said.
In a later interview a spokesman for the drive-in who refused to identify himself said ‘‘you go out there and stand there on Saturday night in the resi dential area and you won't hear a thing."*
He noted that the drive-in located in the Grandin area long before residents did, and therefore ‘'] think we have every right to exist as long as we wish."’ The proposed bylaw to restrict outdoor businesses hours, he said, ‘is obviously aimed at the drive-in."
Asked what he or his company might do about such a bylaw, he said ‘I'll play my aces when I have to."'
GRANT - ING AN INTERVIEW?
The New Democratic Party council met here last weekend, and while he retained his position as party leader, Grant Notley will have to do without the Grantmobile, the van purchased for the last election. It was Mr. Notley's own decision to sell the vehicle in order to cover election expenses. During the weekend, the party council reaffirmed its faith in Mr. Notley's leadership despite the election disappointment. The council feels that if they continue on the course which has been set up by Mr.
Notley and others, their success will increase, as did the party's share of the popular t
vote in the last contest.

meters
approved
Continued From Page Al aside for Paul Kane students but that still doesn't seem to be enough. Complaints that adequate parking isn’t avail- able have come from several sources.
Neither the Protestant School Board nor the city is willing to provide additional off-street parking, so the meters have been approved. Elmer Gish, chairman of the school board, says it’s not the policy of the board to provide student parking, on school property or otherwise.
Meanwhile the Catholic School Board has agreed to the student parking limits as set out in the final draft of the Land Use Bylaw. That bylaw states that one parking space for each 20 students will be set aside at elemen- tary and junior high schools. High schools will get three parking stalls for every 20 students,
at last week's meeting from Inland Gravel Limited, own- ers of property that would be affected by a proposed area structure plan in Akinsdale South.
Inland Gravel filed a court injunction last week to stop the city from passing the plan. A further injunction to stop council from even con- sidering the plan at their June 11 meeting was rejec- ted by the courts.
Speaking for Inland Gravel at last week's meeting, Jim Redmond told council that it had no right to pass the area structure plan for Akinsdale South because the city’s General Plan doesn’t yet provide for area structure plans. Third reading of last night's bylaw will eliminate Mr. Redmond's grounds for protest.
Council was advised at last week's meeting by its soli- citor, Stan Brown, that it had every right to proceed with discussing and passing an Area Structure Plan for Akinsdale South, regardless of what Mr. Redmond said. Thus, last night's first reading of a bylaw may have been unnecessary. But, said alderman Margaret Smith, ‘it’s just one more step to make sure the thing is done right. If it’s superfluous, that’s no problem.”
Inland Gravel and its owner, Joe Sheckter, object to the city’s plans for Akinsdale South because they include a dead end road extending straight into the centre of Mr. Sheckter's property. The road, Mr. Redmond said, would be impractical for traffic flow and effectively split the commercial property in half, making it far less useful or valuable.
In addition to Akinsdale South, the proposed bylaw also “prepares several other parts of the city for Area Structure Plans, including: Lacombe Park (East) Mission Park (East), Ingle- wood Park, Akinsdale South, Campbell Industrial Park, Lacombe Park North and West, Meadowview Drive and Grandin Park South. July 3rd is the date set for the bylaw's public hearing.

ONE BLEW OVER A CUCKOO'S NEST?
Strong winds last week blew over some of St. Albert's trees, but this giant tree wasn't expected to fall. As fate would have it, it did. Braeside kids posed next to the tree to show the size of its trunk.
Summer holidays arriving early for some
We had a phone call from an elementary school teacher Tuesday who said there appeared to be growing problem with pupils being taken from school a week or two before the end of the term so that they could go on summer holiday with their parents. The caller said that three pupils from her class fit this category and that several other teachers (in both sys- tems) had commented to her they too were experiencing a similar situation.
She went on to say that difficulties are placed upon both teacher and student when parents, wanting ‘‘to get out before the rush,'’ take their children out of school before term's end. Teachers, she said, found it difficult to prepare a report card for the next day because a student was leaving tom- orrow. It also created a problem in cases where a teacher might want that last look at a student's progress made possible through final exams. The students in question would not, of course, be writing any finals. The end result was a possible

hurried assessment of the student’s progress through the year.
The caller also suggested the practice was unfair to students who remained be- hind. Why should they have to stay to the end if ‘Johnny’ didn't have to? He was being passed without going all the way to the end, Why can't I?
We polled each district office and the Protestant District polled each school to determine the extent of the ‘problem’.
Superintendent Bill Ziel- inski at the Catholic District said only one such case had been brought to his attention so far this spring. He added that he hadn't any indication of a problem and that in many cases where students left early they actually bene- fitted. He referred to learn- ing not being confined to the classroom and used the example of a trip with parents to Europe or other parts of this continent where young people could exper- ience different lifestyles, etc.
Schools in the Protestant District were averaging be- tween five and 10 pupils each

July hearing date
set for Land Use Bylaw
Three aldermen failed Monday night in their bid to delay a public hearing on the city’s proposed Land Use Bylaw until this fall. July 16 was the hearing date set.
Aldermen Liesbeth Bakker said the bylaw, designed to replace existing zoning clas- sifications, has *‘far-reaching controls for the city of St. Albert,’' and shouldn't be decided upon in mid-summer when many residents are away on holidays.
Scheduling it then, she said, ‘‘makes a farce of public participation."’ Alder- men Margaret Smith and Bill Shiels agreed. ‘'I can under- stand the frustration,’’ Mr, Shields said, that council is feeling if the bylaw is delayed further, but it's important not to rush it

Alderman Barry Breadner objected, saying ‘I don't see why the deliberations of council should end over the summer.'’ He said that because the bylaw has its greatest effect on builders and businessmen, ‘‘I just don’t think it interests the majority of people."
“That's bad logic,’ said Mrs. Bakker, because even if one person turns up at the public hearing then the city has met its obligation to offer a chance for citizens to come and voice their views.
The land use bylaw must be legal by April, 1980. Another motion to have any written submissions on the bylaw accepted up until September 17 also failed.

BUSING: USER PAY OR SUBSIDIZATION
The current furore over busing in the $40 per student and $80 per family. Slightly Protestant School District centers on the more than 100 students are involved but 100 Board's philosophy of ‘user pay’ versus is an easy number to work with. Last year, no
subsidization. The latter approach is favoured by a sizable number of ratepayers directly affected by the $80 per pupil charge. The majority of these people live’ in Akinsdale and feel that the Board's descrip- tion of the fee as ‘optional’ does not really apply in their case. The school designated for junior high students living in Akinsdale is W.D. Cuts, located on the opposite side of the City in Lacombe Park.

The Skeptics Tank
By Vicky Knight
Last week, | asked readers to send in any lists they might have of the tiny hassles and obstacles that make life seem like a fast backwards climb up Everest. Well, the mail arrived and behold--there was no response. This forces me to accept one of two conclusions; one, you are all euphoric, or two, no- one reads this column. Obviously, only one of these is in any way acceptable to me. Soooo, it's lovely to know you're all so untroubled . . . by the way, is euphoria contagious?
At any rate, one of our most recently arrived Gazette staffers, council reporter Jeff Adams, was fiendishly delighted to set out his major grievance, and dashed it off in minutes, his expression growing increasingly thunderous as he pondered bad highway manners. Here it is.
PET PEEVE #1
The thing that irks me the most is people who drive on four lane roadways and don't travel in the curb lane, though they're moving the slowest.
Some of these people seem to find sadistic delight in backing up traffic behind them as they drive along beside a car on their right, mile after mile after mile.
As a recent resident in Alberta, | must plead ignorance. Is this province somehow exempt from the common courtesy of slower traffic driving on the right? I've never seen so many people who ignore this practice before. Does the courtesy somehow reverse itself in Alberta, so that slower people head for the left lane?
The final straw came the other night when, driving down Edmonton's 137 Avenue, | passed a police car. | went by him on his right in a 60 kilometres per hour
ignorance of the survey inconsistencies
any possible they cannot record for contradictions. The
issues, _ if the politician's voting or
record would also point out any biases or
zone while he nonchalantly puttered along at 45 kilometres per hour!
Sometimes I'd swear Albertans have a massive magnet d-r-a-w-i-n-y their two-ton automobiles towards the center of the road.
The rest of this column will be devoted to a longtime hobby of mine--writing epitaphs. It's a dandy way to let off steam about the boss, a teacher, a complaining customer or a politician. The mere act of picturing the pithy words on the fink’s tombstone is therapeutic. After much ado, | came up with these. If anyone out there (is there anyone out there?) comes up with a snappy little epitaph, send it irf. Try it--you'll like it.
EPITAPH FOR CHUCK BARRIS
Beneath this earth lies Chuckie Barris
No longer going strong
From the Newlyweds he wouldn't spare us And he got that Final Gong.

When the preacher intoned over old Agnes Cust Droning “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust”
Old Aggie’s voice interrupted to crow
“The dust's all yours, sorry--you be the schmoe!

DISSOLVING WORK ETHIC
We at this newspaper are finding it increas- ingly difficult to do effective reporting on Fridays.
We're not lazy and we're really not itching to get out of the office, but it seems that maybe other people are. More and more nowadays when our reporters try to telephone people for information we're told that they've left for the day and won't be back until Monday.
Often we don't even get this explanation, because our phone calls aren't even answered. One reporter was told three times last Friday afternoon that people weren't available and wouldn't be back until Monday morning. His calls were to a school board office, an engineering firm, and a social agency; all of them between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.
We can't help thinking that some of these calls were to people who'd just headed off to an early weekend. We often get the same response week after week when we call. What gives these people the right to a four or four- and-a-half day work week? Because many of them are civil servants who work in “nine to five” offices, we know they're not doing weekend work or overtime.
What’s happening to the productivity of our community when the weekend for some begins at noon on Friday or even earlier? If we can't reach the people we want to, then others also can't, and that means we're not getting the service we're supposed to. It's hardly a local problem. This ‘thank goodness it’s Friday’ mentality has become nationally contagious, and it's reflected in our labour disputes, our lessening productivity and our slipping dollar. It's time we started thinking about good old fashioned things like a work ethic again - for at least five days a week.
Local camping, trailer facilities needed says Tourist Association
Since opening the doors to spring tourist traffic April 5 the Midnight Twilight Tour- ist Association's (MTTA) Information Booth in Bridge Park (Highway 2 and Stur- geon Road) has been be- seiged with requests, over 2,000 of them.
The majority of travellers Stopping in are after direc- tions to various locations in St. Albert but a significant number are also looking for
attractions and services in the area.
One of the most often asked questions of this latter type relates to the camping and trailer facilities avail- able. And the answer is straight forward enough. There really isn't any. No camping facilities, no trailer parking facilities, no trailer dumping facilities. As a matter of fact MTTA secre- tary manager Liz Clarke tells
us the nearest dumping station is on highway 16 west. None at all exist on the north side of Edmonton, The fact that these facil- ities do not exist in St. Albert is not only a problem for travellers. It affects residents as well, Visiting relatives and friends who prefer to travel in a camping/trailer mode have no place to stay; unless of course they don't mind
commuting from the provin- cial campsite at Vimy 48 kilometers north. Weekend travellers returning home to St. Albert have need of trailer dumping facilities and many have expressed this concern in the past. One man we know of rigged up his own facility in his backyard. Some relief will come when the Greater St. Albert Men's Fastball Association
complete its plans for a facility located next to Mea- dowview Ball Diamonds. In the meantime St. Albert businesses will continue to lose potential tourist dollars because a large segment of the travelling set finds it next to impossible to stay long. The MTTA has been lobbying for tourist facilities for some time now. Since opening the booth in Feb-
ruary of 1978, St. Albert businesses in support of the organization have grown from 24 to SO, Still Liz Clarke feels much more could be done than merely donating funds. ‘‘I want to be able to show the Chamber and the city the importance of having these facilities.’’ As she says, ‘'The idea is to keep them (the tourists) here to spend their money.”
DISPUTES HOME ECONOMIST’S ATTACK ON
Several weeks ago, a column by one of the Gazette’s regular contributors, District Home Economist Pat Doerksen, took issue with the nutritional claims of health foods. This week a St. Albert resident takes issue with several points made in the earlier column and because his letter would make better sense with the Home Economist’s column fresh in mind, we have reprinted it here.

Recently, this column featured an article on health foods. Some confusion may have been created by this brief introduction to a controversial and complicated area. Therefore, the question “Health Foods - fact or fallacy” will be considered again in light of the actual facts.
In taking a closer look at the facts’ behind the health food claims, many sources were referred to and supported by Dr. Mike Stiles, food microbiologist and professor at the University of Alberta.
*Are Health Foods More Nutritious and Safe? Dr. A.B. Morrison, assistant deputy minister of the Department of National Health and Welfare has stated that, “there is no evidence that health foods as a group are more nutritious or any more safe than comparable conventional foods."’ Other scientists have reached this same conclusion. Let's look at the facts on which these experts have based their findings . . .
*Organic vs Chemical Fertilizers. There is no scientific basis for the claim that organically - grown foods are more nutritious than those grown using chemical fertilizers. (Organically - grown foods are those grown without the use of manufactured fertilizers or pesticides). Plants can only use the form of plant food that is broken down (in-organic), so to the plant it does not matter whether manufactured or organic fertilizers are used. If the soil lacks certain nutrients, it is the yield not the quality of the plant that is affected.
Researchers have also noted that an added disadvantage with organic fertilizers is the possibility of the bacteria Salmonella resulting in food poisoning.
*Residues and Food Additives - Controlled. Claims are made that our food supply is being poisoned with pesticides and food additives. According to Dr. Richards, a food science professor at University of British Columbia, chemicals are not necessarily hazardous, it is the manner and amounts in which they are used that might make them hazardous. The additives permitted and the maximum amounts allowed are strictly controlled. The legislation is stringent and based on_ internationally accepted scientific studies of what is safe for human consumption,
Dr. B. Wolnak, food scientist, has stated that we know more about the safety of additives than we know about the naturally occurring toxins in foods.
*Why Additives at All? Dr. B. Oser, a chemist and expert on food additives explains, “without them, baked goods would go stale or mold overnight, salad oils would Separate and turn rancid, table salt would turn hard and lumpy, canned goods would become discolored or mushy, vitamin content would deteriorate, wrappings would stick to the contents . . . Also, convenience foods from bake mixes to instant puddings would not be possible.”
*Processed Foods - Minimal Nutrient Loss. An expert panel on Food Safety and Nutrition states that the food preservation methods used today minimize nutrient loss, are safe and well standardized. Acknowledged losses in the food industry are probably less than losses achieved in home preparation of the foods.
*The High Cost of Health Foods. Recent surveys show that organically produced groceries and health foods can cost up to twice as much as their regular counterparts in the supermarket (as reported in various Journals of Nutrition), A simple cost comparison in Edmonton last week showed the following:
Health Food Store $3.95/Ib.
Supermarket
Honey $1.23/Ib.
Brown Rice $1.80/2 Ib. $1.05/2 Ib. Dried Apricots $3.99/8 oz. ($5.36/12 oz.) $1.95/12 oz. Peanut Butter = $1.95/Ib. $1,09/Ib.
As there are no laws or tests to identify organic food,
the consumer is forced to simply “trust” that these . products were grown or prepared as claimed.
*Dietary Supplements - Pills. According to the recent Nutrition Canada Survey, malnutrition in Canada is not serious enough to encourage a general consumption of vitamins and minerals. An adequate diet can be achieved with the proper balance of a variety of foods by following Canada’s Food Guide.
Furthermore, the consumption of vitamin and mineral pills, especially Vitamins A and D in large doses can lead to toxic levels that are dangerous to human health. For more extensive information on vitamin - mineral toxicity you can contact the Alberta Agriculture office in Morinville.
*Vitamin C and the Common Cold. The committee on Drugs of the American academy of Pediatrics, 1975, stated that there was no scientific evidence that large doses of vitamin C are either safe or useful as a cold remedy. They also reported that hazards associated with large doses of vitamin C. Vitamin C in large doses can interfere with the absorption of vitamin B12 which cannot be corrected by taking more B12. Also, healthy adults can become conditioned to high doses of vitamin C and thus have an increased need for it when on a normal dose. This also explains the development of scurvy in normally fed children whose mothers took high doses of vitamin C throughout pregnancy. Furthermore, the body excretes extra vitamin C (after 100 mg.).
Until more information is available, it has been recommended by medical authorities that caution should be taken in exceeding the recommended dietary intake (of 30 mg. for adults) for vitamin C.
*Fear or Fact. The appeal of health foods is not only an issue of nutrition. It is based mainly on the fear that modern scientific production and processing of foods somehow diminishes their safety, wholesomeness or nutritive value. According to the Canadian Institute of Food Science and Technology, all the evidence available to date shows that in these respects, health foods are NOT superior to their counterparts in the grocery store. Nor is there any evidence to suggest a general need for dietary supplements.
In summary, if you are really concerned about quality snutrition, look for the facts before simply accepting claims made by the promoters of health foods. It will only be to your benefit to become an informed consumer.
In response to the article of April 18 by Pat Doerkson, District Home Economist, regarding “Health Foods,” I feel that some comments are in order.
To begin with, Dr. A.B. Morrison, assistant deputy minister of the Department of National Health and Welfare, has apparently stated that “there is no evidence that health foods as a group are more nutritious or any more safe than comparable conventional foods.” You also refer to this person as an “expert.”’ I would like to know this person’s qualifications that he or she should be quoted as an expert. Also, what exactly is being called a “health food” and what is being called a “conventional food?”
You go on to quote a Dr. Richards who states that “chemicals are not necessarily hazardous, it is the manner and amounts in which they are used that might make them hazardous.’ At present, there are several thousand “permitted” additives, colorings and/or preservatives, many of which have been shown to contribute to cancer, hyperactivity, allergies, etc. The consumer has little opportunity of ascertaining what or how many of these
HEALTH FOODS
chemicals are in the food, and thus has little chance of knowing “the manner or amounts”’ being included in our daily diet.
The question is raised ‘‘why additives at all?’’ Indeed I would ask -- “Why additives at all?” Again using your examples, “Baked goods would go stale overnight” -- Have you never heard of a refrigerator? I buy (and bake) goods, and either freeze or refrigerate them, with no ill effects. “Salad oils would separate or turn rancid” -- bunk!! Cold pressed unhydrogenated oil kept in the refrigerator does not turn rancid in the refrigerator . . “Table salt would turn hard and lumpy” Table salt, a pure chemical, contains yet another chemical to keep it free flowing. Sea salt, kept in an airtight container, does not get lumpy. (Add kelp for iodine and trace minerals).
“Canned goods” -- how many are really necessary anyway? Sodium nitrite and nitrate have been shown to contribute to the cause of cancer, not to mention sodium erythrobate, monobasic calcium phosphate. E.D.T.A. (2), etc, Open your cupboards and read some of the labels - you would probably be surprised or shocked. Buy your vegetables fresh or frozen in smaller quantities - they keep very well!!
“Vitamin content would deteriorate’ —- What vitamin content? Processed foods have so little vitamin content left to deteriorate that the loss would be negligable. Properly prepared fresh foods will retain much, much more.
““Wrappings would stick to contents” what a great price to pay for better foods!!
“Convenience foods . . . would not be possible.” If you want a true chemical feast they are your best bets - read the label - do you really need them??
The comment on processed foods having a minimal nutrient loss - what nutrients do you refer to? Vitamins are very susceptible to processing - exposure to heat light and air destroys most.
The high cost of health foods is also alluded to. Without knowing what type of foods you were comparing, a very unclear picture results. For example, raw, unpasturized honey can usually be purchased for about 65¢ a pound. How does this compare with your example of $1.23 a pound from the supermarket (which was probably pasturized and homogenized).
You further state that a recent survey in Canada showed that “malnutrition . . . is not serious enough to encourage a general consumption of vitamins and minerals.” Exactly when will itsbe “serious enough?” and should we wait that long? Reference is made in the same quotation, to an “adequate diet’’ -- what is an “adequate diet” -- and how many people obtain it? What is adequate for you may not be for your husband, or your children, or your neighbor.
Regarding the consumption of Vitamins A and D in large quantities, you are quite correct in Stating that large doses can be toxic - but again, what is your frame. of reference? What do you consider to be a “large” dosage? What is toxic to one person may not necessarily be for another,
Ah - Vitamin C - the good old whipping boy!! Better yet - Vitamin C and the Common Cold. Why use 1975 quotes - from a drug committee yet - Vitamin C, or any other vitamin is not a drug, rather a food. At any rate, would you expect a drug committee to endorse Vitamin C as a potent and powerful aid to the Common Cold - when they would stand to lose millions of dollars on countless “cold remedies” which only treat the symptoms - not the problem?
Where oh where did you get the information about scurvy in children whose mothers took high doses of Vitamin C during pregnancy?
Vitamin C appears to serve as a detoxifier of many poisons within the human body - and as such is constantly destroyed. Smoke, chemicals and stress all serve to increase the body's need for this important vitamin. Further, many circumstances combine to prevent the absorbtion of Vitamin C. Your comments, in my opinion, show a pathetic lack of knowledge.
In conclusion, may I congratulate you on your closing paragraph. Indeed, if you are really concerned about nutrition, look for the facts “before accepting anyones claims” (italics mine), Read all you can on the subject - it may surprise you. You will definitely benefit by being informed - the main benefits being extra energy, a better disposition, fewer ailments and a longer, happier life!!

“1 LOVE A PARADE...”
. .80 goes the song. And it seems hundreds and hundreds of others do to, as was the case on Saturday morning along various parts of the Rodeo Parade route. At leftis the St. Albert Majorettes marching their way south on Perron Street. above, the Father Jan School float, winners of the Best School Float, Best Float, and Best All-Round entry.
Father Jan sweeps parade awards
Father Jan School took three honors with their Alberta Summer Games theme float at Saturday's
Rodeo Parade, sponsored by the St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce.
Hundreds and hundreds of people gathered early along the route up to an hour in advance to watch the colorful spectacular.
Father Jan won the Best School Float, Best Float and Best All Round entry in the parade.
In other categories, Jun- ction Gulf Service won Best Originality, the 700 Wing Pipe Band won the Senior Band category, and the Ist Canadian Regiment Drum
District, ‘‘past and present." On this year's float, over 25,000 flowers were used to decorate it. The entry was financed by the St, Albert Summer Games Society. It took two weeks of student manpower to build it. The idea of using’ the ‘‘flower method"’ came from teacher Mel Bosch, who took interest in the Rose Bowl parade when he was down in the Los Angeles area in the winter.

she says simply, in explan- ation be Audrey Graham arrived at the Foster Parent program by a more conventional route, Once her own children were grown and she had enough space, she and her husband decided to take in foster children. As Mr. Graham had been a foster child himself, the couple were already aware of some of the rewards and problems.
FAMILY DECISION
Both women, in agreement with program administrators stress the importance of family involvement. If the spouse and children are not committed to the foster parent concept, then division will naturally occur. How- ever, this is not the case in most foster homes. Young Leslie Winter shares her mother’s enthusiasm for the program. (One wonders if perhaps a third generation of the Winters family might choose to be a foster parent in the future). When Leslie's mother suggested the fam- ily’s entry into the program she fell in with her mother’s plans happily.
‘| thought I would have a friend,’’ she recalls. Then she bestowed the ultimate compliment on her foster brothers and sisters:
“If kids do something I don't like I just yell at them like I do my own brothers and sisters."’
Mrs. Winter said there is little trouble with her chil- dren's attitude. On occasions when one of her children is annoyed at a foster child, a reminder of the stress being borne by the foster child is

usually enough to bring them around. Daughter Leslie says that a family’s natural children need have no fear of being shut out. She says she has found that her parents love expands with the num- ber of children who need it In the six and one-half years they have been foster par- ents, Mrs. Winter says her kids have never expressed a wish to opt out of the program.
Mrs. Winter tells of one experience that underlines the lowered expectations of some foster children. She recalls one child asking wist- fully when the family was going on holiday. When told she would be accompanying the family, she was as tonished, as she expected to be left behind. Many foster children enjoy holidays with their ‘‘temporary’’ parents, and some have travelled as far as Europe.
Fostering is rich in spiri- tual rewards but its no job for anyone wishing to accum- ulate a fortune. Foster parents are paid a per diem to cover costs. Alberta's per diem is the second highest in the country.
AMPLE SUPPORT
However, there are other forms of assistance than money and foster parents are supported by a battery of services, Locally, the Stur- geon Foster Parents As- sociation, of which Audrey is president, gives support, advice and encouragement to foster parents. Medical and dental and psychiatric fees, drug bills and social worker's fees are all paid for. Please Turn to Page A 8

RESOLUTIONS PASSED
Council passed three re- solutions Monday night that will go before the Urban Municipalities Association at its October meeting.
The aldermen agreed to ask the province to study and implement a method of assisting municipalities to set up a regional 911 emergency call system for police, fire, ambulance and poison control occurrences.
The second resolution asks the province to immediately increase its number of provincial assessors and to re-examine the present sal- ary classification for trained assessors to ensure that the salary level is competitive with other related jobs. ‘‘We ourselves went through a
period,’’ Alderman Barry Breadner said, ‘‘when we had to delay problems of assessment and striking our mill rates.’’ Hiring more assessors, he said, could help other municipalities avoid similar problems.
Council's third resolution asks the Alberta government to agree, for the purposes of their budgetting for preven- tive social services funding assistance, to set its budget from January 1 to December 31 instead of an April 1 to March 31 schedule.
PRESERVING HISTORY
Council passed a motion at its Monday night meeting requesting the province to provide additional assistance in preserving designated historical sites in the city.
Because this is the pro- vince’s 7Sth anniversary, Alderman Margaret Smith said, special grants for preservation would be app- ropriate.

Canada’s gassupply ie
betterthan U.S,
A survey by the Canadian Recreational Vehicle Asso- ciation of the major oil companies in Canada has found that the supply divi- sion for refined products in Canada this year and next winter will be somewhat tighter than usual, but bar- ring any unforeseen upsurge in demand, major refinery problems or further inter- ruptions in overseas supply, they do not anticipate shor- tages of the kind currently being reported in many parts of the U.S.
Why are the Americans presently having gasoline and diesel supply problems while Canadians are not? Imperial Oil says that it’s clear the Iranian crude oil disruption is having a more severe impact on the avail- ability of crude oil supply in the U.S. than it is in Canada. In this country we have been able to increase domestic crude oil production and (up to the present at least) offset the full impact of foreign crude shortages. This has enabled Canadian refiners to maintain full production of gasoline supplies.
Imperial added the U.S. situation is further com-

plicated by the fact that a colder than normal winter, during a time of reduced imports of crude oil, has significantly reduced inven tories of heating oil. Under instructions from the U.S, government, American re- finers are now building up inventories of heating oil for the coming winter months; consequently, there is less gasoline being made. In Canada this re-building is taking place normally be- cause, to date, sufficient crude oil feedstocks have been available to our re- fineries.
All the companies sur- veyed continue to stress the importance of energy con- servation to help make Canada less dependent upon foreign sources of crude oil. Public policies and realistic ground rules are needed to attract the investment capital required to discover and develop the resources which Canada will need in the future, but the opinion today is that RV owners and prospective owners still do not have a serious basis for concern that gasoline will not be available to them.

By F/Sgt. C. Leibel Thursday, June 14 was the last parade of the year. For
many it was their last parade with #533 Squadron. Major Maybee and Capt. Martin
are both retiring as officers from #533 Squadron. On behalf of the squadron, thank
you for making the year of 1978-79 a great year full of fun and excitement.
‘Local business” takes the cake!
The old song used to say “If I'd Known You Were Coming I'd Have Baked a Cake,’’ but local entre- preneurs Shirley Riedmuel- ler and Leslie MacDonald go that lyric one better. Not only do they know the public will be coming to bang on their door, but they are ready to produce the cakes made to order, As owner-operators of Cakes Unlimited, cakes of all shapes, sizes and flavours are their business.
The kitchens of Cakes Unlimited serve as more than mere cooking space. It is an improvisational workshop where Les and Shirley dream up ways to meet their customers requests for all kinds of specialty cakes, and other delicacies. Using the knowledge they accumulated
during a cake decorating course, the women can pro- duce just about any shape or design of cake requested. And the requests are often challenging. So far, they have produced a cake aerial map of the Peace River Country, a Star Wars scen- ario in cake, sports cakes, gardener’s cakes and even a Playboy bunny cake, for the mildly risque. (It is to be noted that this cake features the rabbit, not the centre- fold). A recent request from a Gazette staffer resulted in the baking of an airplane cake, accurate in detail down to the serial numbers on the wing.
Each Cakes Unlimited delicacy is made to order, tailored to fit the quirks and tastes of the customer. Bar Mitzvah cakes and Rosh
EDIBLE GAMES LOGO
Hashana cakes are available, as well as a special Father's Day cake which features “The One That Got Away.” The two women bake cakes saying ‘Happy Birthday” in any language, Professional groups such as doctors, nurses, retailers etc, will find the service is an asset to social gatherings as will clubs and organizations. Club crests and designs can be reproduced, if they are not too detailed..
Of course, as is expected with a cake business, many cakes are bought for chil- dren, to celebrate birthdays and other events. The Cakes Unlimited imaginations know no bounds when it comes to making memorable desserts for children, Pooh Bear, Mickey Mouse, Cookie Mon- ster, baseball caps, Raggedy Anns and Star Wars charac- ters all can be found on Cakes Unlimited creations. These cakes are trimmed with small cookies and candies to make them even more appealing to small fry.
The talents of the Cakes Unlimited chefs are not limited to cakes. Tey make
sugar molds in various pat- terns, including those suited to Christmas and novelty cookies celebrating Sesame Street, holidays and other high points in a child's life. The women also whip up decorating sugar cubes, petit fours, cupcakes, Easter Eggs as well as the delectable array of cakes.
The owners of Cakes Unlimited use a special pro- cess known as Color-Flow which allows them to repro- duce some of the complex designs customers bring them.
Leslie MacDonald and Shirley Riedmueller saw a need for such a service in St. Albert and set out to fill it .. Combining a desire for a little extra cash with the knowledge they had gained in the decorating course, they have transformed what was a hobby into a going concern,
You might even say they make it look like a piece of cake!
To order one of the Cakes Unlimited creations, phone Shirley at 458-5214 or Les at 459-8909,

Athabasca U
appears at ERCB
Athabasca University is appearing before the ERCB Hearings on the Alsands Project in Fort McMurray June 19, 1979 to present an information brief outlining the University’s mandate, its programs and services, and its involvement in the nor- thern regions of the pro- vince.
Athabasca University has been given a special mandate to provide university services within the northeastern Al- berta region and has esta- blished, in Fort McMurray, a regional learning centre whi- ch provides both a focus and a facility to support the delivery of programs, cour- ses and services to residents of the town, the region and to occupational industry and special interest groups.
With its mandate to be particularly responsible to the higher education needs of areas of the province not easily served by the con- ventional universities, the

university can provide pro- grams and services which would not otherwise be available to the rapidly ex- panding and changing popu- lation which will be attracted by the significant present and future development of this region.
For its services and their delivery to be maximally effective, the university re- quires an early involvement with the Governmental, La- bour and Industry organiza- tions and agencies involved in the planning, development and implementation of pro- jects and communities.
In addition to the con- sultative assistance which the university is prepared to offer and which, in turn, the university required, early consideration should be giv- en to cooperative develop- ment of higher education programs and services and to resource sharing between and among the institutions, agencies and organizations involved,
Athabasca University is a provincially-funded, under- graduate degree-granting institution with a compre- hensive mandate to make university learning access- ible to people throughout the province. Using an open, distance education approach, Athabasca University offers **home-study’’ courses thr- oughout Alberta, many of

Celebrate anniversary
of Breton plots
A half century of soil management experimentat- ion at the University of Alberta's Breton Plots will be commemorated Friday, July 13th,
The program will begin at 1 p.m. with greetings from the Hon. Dallas Schmidt, Alberta's minister of agri- culture; Dr. Willard Allen, associate vice-president (ac- ademic) of the university; and Dr. John Bowland, dean of the university's Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry.
The theme of the SOth anniversary, Lessons from the Breton Plots, will be addressed initially by Dr. J. D. Newton who, along with Dr. F. A. Wyatt, originated experiments on the manage- ment of Luvisolic (gray wooded) soils on the plots. Both men were with the uni- versity’s department of soil science,
The Breton Plots are located about 110 kilometers southwest of Edmonton. The site can be reached by travelling west from Leduc for about 75 kilometres to Breton and that community's school, After reaching the first intersection on the highway which is about 400 metres south of the school, the visitor should drive 1.6 kilometres east and 1.6 kilometres south on the country roads. Signs will be posted.
The plots consist of several blocks of land comprising two crop rotations, namely a grain-forage rotation (wheat, oats, barley, forage) anda grain-fallow rotation, A var-

iety of fertilizers is applied to the different crops with a view to increasing yields and the quality of same.
Among the research areas at the plots are nutrient deficiencies, soil acidity and liming, soil tilth, and quality of feeds.
The display is open to the public from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday in the Archives’ reference room in the south wing of Ruth- erford Library on campus.

Birds as Builders by Peter Goodfellow. A colorful book full of illustrations and explanations of the home designs chosen by different species of birds. Their needs are reflected in the location of the nest, the building materials chosen, as well as the basic plan for con- struction. For instance, a bird may choose a hanging nest, a domed nest, a ground Structure, a straw nest, a mud nest, etc, The author also explains who builds the nests, for which members of the.family the dwelling is built, and why. A good book for bird watchers.

The Soldiers by David Nevin. Another well-illustra- ted member of the Time-Life series, this book shows and tells all sorts of reasons why you probably wouldn't have particularly enjoyed life as a soldier in the Old West if you valued more than chivalry. Reasons include long mar- ches, fatal tactical errors in battle, and the medical technology of the day.

could return the book.
One of the secretaries offered to return the book for the man, but did not ask his name.
There is nothing to in- dicate how long the book has been missing.
Later, the book’s impor- tance was discovered. St- amps indicate it predates Alberta's entry into con- federation, dating somewh- ere into the time that Edmonton was a small town included in the Northwest Territories.
The book is an 1899 edition of ‘‘A History of English Dramatic Literature to the Death of Queen Anne"’ by Adolphus William Ward.
The book is particularly important as the public school system's communica- tions office hopes to gather information on Edmonton schools in the early days to commemorate Edmonton's 75th anniversary.
All fines on the book have been waived.

Shopping for loud speakers
Loud speakers are very important elements in audio evaluation, They are the last link in long chain of signal processing; they are also the most difficult to judge, especially in surroundings that bear no relationship to where they will ultimately end up - your living room.,
While it is generally accepted that technology has brought the quality of speakers up and the prices down, the unwary or the inexperienced shopper falls easy prey to the sleek salesmen who are more concerned about quantity. So what to do?
Your ears are the ultimate judges of what you hear or would like to hear. While it is possible to develop “golden ears,’’ most people out there just want something that looks good and sounds good. A trip to your local hi-fi shop is in order. Remember! I said hi-fi shop, for particular reasons, it is better equipped to specialize in high fidelity only, and nothing else.
Take some records or tapes along - anything from classical to rock. Classical music provide the best medium for judging a loud speakers ‘over-all’ performance; rock or disco will quickly demonstrate that most speakers fall apart at the low end.
Some speakers are more “efficient” than others, i.e. very little amount of amp power yields incredible volume. These are excellent if your amplifier is a bit shy on the power side. However, the ‘inefficient’ speakers have other advantages - excellent power handling, good transient response, etc.
Next you have to decide whether you like your speakers, moderate or small. The advantage of a big speaker is at the low end - your bass sounds more realistic, Medium sized speakers combine the best of both worlds, while smaller ones are practicable in situations where space is at a premium.
Finally, a shop that provides reputable after-sales service is a good idea, even though they might charge a bit more. Consider the options - if you burn a tweeter, do you have to wait for six weeks while it’s being fixed in Missassauga Ontario or do you get a temporary replacement? How good is your warranty? Can you trade them up for good money when you decide to upgrade? Has the manufacturer gone out of business? Is it an obsolete model? Only your hi-fi shop can answer these questions; but until you get good answers, do not part with your dollars. Below, is a partial list of reputable speaker manufacturers: Altec, JBL, Pioneer, Electro Voice, Technics, Sony, Yamaha, Celestion, Tannoy, 3A, Bic, Advent, Quad, KLH, Bose and Cerwin-Vega.
Next week: Sound Reinforcement.

*' Women’s” Fiction: Regrettable but neccessary?
“Captive Embraces,"’ ‘Savage in Silk,’’ ‘‘Sweet Savage Love."’ No, these are not the chapter headings from Margaret Trudeau's latest book. They are book
titles and represent one of
the hottest publishing trends in years: women's fiction. Before any seething, in- dignant mutterings arise about trashy novels, a few qualifications should be made. At the very least there are three main kinds of reading: Instructional read- ing, of material such as how-to books and texts; literary reading, such as the classics and finally recrea tional reading, which can cover Louis Lamour west-
erns, Harlequin romances, comic books, drugstore fic- tion, spy thrillers, written.
from-the-movie books, sci-fi, mysteries and chillers. Now obviously, most people do a little of all three with different results from each. Recreational reading serves to provide an escape route from the daily grind and books of this type should be evaluated on this basis, and not as literature. That's like comparing the work of a competent commercial artist to Van Gogh.
Given that women are reading these books (and in vast numbers), the next question is why? Why does the enlightened woman of 1979 feel compelled to escape into an historical never-never land where men are men, women are women and rape is a ritual of courtship? Why do the same women that berated the men in their lives as chauvinists then turn to the macho stereotypes sketched in these books? Why, at a time when the cult of individual per- sonality is at a high, does this women accept any stereo- types at all?
I think the paradoxical behaviour cited above results from the fact that today’s woman is caught in a socio- cultural squeeze, Behind her are aeons of conditioning that tell her to be sub- missive, timid and chaste. Ahead are the days of the New Woman, who can manage corporations or whip

up a mean quiche with equal panache, and all of this while being wildly sexual. Thus with a foot firmly in each century, the modern woman struggles along as best she can, occasionally making compromises to accommo- date her conflicting attit- udes. ‘‘Women's"’ fiction is one of those compromises which permit many modern women to carry on in what is really a transitional era. In a way, the genre reflects a longing for simpler times. The heroines of these books tend to be independent, the feminists of yesteryear. However, this doesn't stop them from swooning with delight at the sight of a hairy chest. Like the modern woman who is sometimes a captain of industry while also a wife and mother, the amazon of women's fiction is often a captain of a pirate ship, returning to her home port to switch hats and once again become the demure virgin. While these ladies have the sexual reservations
of our grandmothers, they excel at sex. Thus another 20th century conflict is
smoothly avoided, by having
the heroine be hailf- trollop, half vestal virgin. To the reader, this is reassurance Please Turn to Pure A20

‘ By Shauna Oor It really must boggle some minds (in the biz) when they realize that any of your average groupies from the crowd (whom the generous and wealthy “star” claims responsibility for in a fit of uncontrolled exuberance) could probably take him for a hefty sum. For instance, pretend to discover someone and you may never have to work again. Add names to the already embarrasing list of in-court couples; Penny McCall, who is sueing pretty Peter Frampton for half his bucks, Lydia “Beth” Criss, who is fleeing the litter and taking Kitty Kat for a romp with attourney Marvin Mitchelson. (He won $12 million for ex-Mrs. Bob Dylan). Karen Ecklund (the family that plays .. .) is also sueing her ex. Bianca Jagger has been awarded a hefty sum until the final decision on her suit has been awarded . . . Mick has reportedly been seen whizzing down Rodeo Drive in his new used Volkswagon screaming, “But, | spent it all!”
Ex-Runaway Joan Jett (yes, the Runaways are no more) that brazen little groupie of the trash discs set has joined former Sex Pistols Jones and Cook in song. They are recording a single to be released in Britain. (Kind of makes you glad you live in Canada, huh?)
AN ACT OF GODDO (POLYDOR)
An exciting month for the Sub Theatre! With Duvo playing there soon and Goddo just a few weeks ago. Opening for Goddo was Crowcuss. The less said the better but maybe they have an excuse! Do you? Guys? Hello? Speaking of Goddo, their new album (“An Act of Goddo”) is out. Goddo was great live, but the album is rather disappointing. If you've seen them you know why. | admit it must be tough to press all that energy into plastic but it doesn’t sound like they really tried.
The show is entertaining, funny and loud.
The album is low-key, boring and bare.
The show is lively, fast and talented.
The album doesn't even come close which is too bad because bass player Gregg Goddovitz is very good.
The best part of the album is Anacanapanacana. And this is not rock. Actually, it's a symphony arrangement that slides you into “Walk On.” | wonder if any of the band members even play on it.
The album doesn't do justice to the lead guitarist's talent. Live he's pretty good, but on the album he resorts to the basic riffs and simple chords of yesteryear. The percussion lies on a level somewhere
below peasants and women in the 17th Century.
Now, | am the first person to admit that too much overdubbing is a commercial rip off, but, hey guys, what are studios for?
The lyrics on “Chantal” are a bit lacking. But the vocals by Goddovitz aren't too bad. This song might make it to the top 40 if they spruce it up a bit, but then again, who wants to get on top 40? REALLY!
Some okay songs are “Rosie” or “You're so Cruel” but let's face it, most of these songs are about as enjoyable as listening to two maimed dogs howling in unison. But then if you're into that stuff...
LIVE: Cheap Trick, Budokan: This album is nothing short of very good. The sound is a little low on the vocals what with the filtering of hysteria. All these songs are very good with the possible exception of “Surrender” which is okay but not quite as good as the other ones. I'm not counting the opening and closing dribble called “Hello There Ladies and Gentlemen” or “Goodbye now Ladies and Gentle- men.”
Cheap Trick seem to be influenced a bit by the Beatles. This is especially evident on “Look Out'”’ which is also the best song on the album. The lyrics on “Look Out" are kind of neat. If anyone can tell me what they mean, let me know. Another good song is “Need Your Love.” This is mostly instrumental but the vocals are really nice. Also included in this album is “| Want You to Want Me.” If you like rock, buy this album.
In closing, I'd like to pose this relevant question, if | may? How long are Jimmy Page's toenails? Any input welcome.

“Women's”
fiction
Continued From Page A17 that it is possible to retain some of the old virtues, along with the new independence. In the harsh light of reality however, it’s another story. The other side of the women's fiction coin is un- doubtedly sexual titillation. One Gazette staffer related women buying these naughty novels with men buying Playboy: the motive is the same, but as my friend pointed out, women seem to be more susceptible to the printed word, than men, who appear to be more vulnerable to picture porn. At any rate, the romance writers of today are a far cry from Jane
literary one. It provides escape through sex and adventure and at the same time attempts to reconcile the conflicting demands made on women, The ques- tion then arises as to whether they are doing more harm than good in the attempt. In order to reconcile the cling- ing vine of the 19th century with the feminist of today, we are presented with men who seem to be saying ‘‘Lean on me but not very often."' It's a compromise all right, but a torturous one, If most men ever took a close look between the covers of one of these novels, they'd be infuriated, and with some cause. After years of scr- eaming ‘male chauvinist pig’, and demanding equal- ity, a large percentage of women have then turned to
with, particularly in social terms. All kinds of wild speculations can be inferred from the trend, and many of them are downright danger- ous. For instance, a Martian reading any of these novels would assume that rape was a favored romantic ritual. What is not made clear is the fact that the fantasy of rape might intrigue an escapist female, but the reality definitely does not. The decidedly sadistic tendency of the genre should be watched too. It is to be hoped that the housewives of today won't become the S and M fans of the future. Summing up, the new women's fiction is definitely an escape hatch for today’s peculiar pressures. How- ever, some of its wider implications have yet to be
Carr oil sketches star
in exhibition
The Honorable Mary Le- Messurier, minister of cul- ture, will officially open the Emily Carr exhibition which runs from June 29 September 3. This is the first one devoted solely to Emily Carr's oil sketches.
Carr's sketches on paper not only include some of her very best paintings, but are among the absolute classics of Canadian art. Made between approximately 1930 and 1942, when Carr was already a mature and rela- tively well known artist. they are perhaps the most daring and original Canadian pain- tings of the period.

Official opening ceremon- ies will be held on June 29 at 8:30 p.m. The show will be accompanied by a catalogue illustrating many of the works on display, and in- cluding a major essay by Head Curator/Curator of Canadian art, Christopher Varley.

liable for the consequences - so know what you are signing!
Above and beyond all else it is essential to realize that an ‘Offer to Purchase’ is binding on you as buyer if and when the seller agrees to it. Therefore, the offer should stipulate and clearly lay out your intentions and restrictions on the purchase.
The first point of con- sideration will naturally be how much to offer for the property. A clue - always remember the sales agent is working for the seller - they want the best price possible for the property. Never be afraid to offer an amount below the asking price. The seller can always (and most often does) counter yout original offer
Once the price to be offered is determined, be sure the following is included in the offer to purchase: (Consumers buying homes without the assistance of a lawyer or realtor should take particular note)
- Name and address of the purchaser and seller
Identification of property
- Price to be offered, terms and conditions of payment
- Deposit amount, if any
- Mortgage assumed
- Mortgage to be secured if getting a new mortgage
- Balance of the selling price
Possession occupancy date
- Obligations of the buyer
- Obligations of the seller
- List of moveable property which is to be included in the sale (e.g. draperies)
- Date of the offer and time limit for acceptance.
If acceptable to the seller, he will then sign the offer making it a legal and binding contract. If you decide to back out you will then lose your deposit and/or become involved in legal action. Know what you are signing!

VACATION PLANNING
One of the secrets of a satisfying vacation is careful pre-planning. Following are some things you might want to consider,
FINANCING YOUR TRIP
Asa general rule, credit should never be used for items that will be consumed before they are paid for - such as vacations. Having to scrimp for months afterward takes the joy out of holiday memories. Also realize that, by using credit, you may pay more for your trip with the added cost of interest. If you choose to use credit for convenience during your trip but plan to pay off the entire bill when it comes due, then the ‘no credit" rule does not apply.
Ideally, vacation expenses should be included in your monthly budget. Estimate the cost of the trip you want (minus. the amount you would normally spend at home) to determine how much you should put aside each month, To work out a tentative budget you must have a reasonably accurate idea of what the trip will cost. Be sure to include all expenses such as: transpor-
tation, accommodation, food and drinks, entertainment (entrance fees to attractions, ete); laundry, cost of board- ing your pets while away, spending for souvenirs, gifts, ete., exchange on foreign currency, gratuities or tips. You may have to do a little research to work out your expenses or to find out more about your destination. The following are helpful sources of information: provincial and state tourism offices, automobile associations, oil companies, libraries and book stores, travel agents.
TRAVEL AGENTS AND PACKAGE TOURS
Travel agents can provide a wealth of information on such things as package tours, off-season rates, passports, foreign currency, weather and local customs,
Most of the travel agents services are free; they make their commissions from air- lines and hotels. However, some agents may charge for things like long distance phone calls or telegrams necessary in arranging your trip.
An incompetent or un- ethical travel agent can cause you a lot of problems. Be sure that you are dealing with a reputable firm, espe- cially if you must pay all or part of the cost in advance: - check the agent's reputation with friends or your local Better Business Bureau or

And we've put all that experience into a rugged, smaller tractor

It's called Cub Cadet. A small, stylish tractor with a solid |-beam front axle, a heavy duty frame of full-length channel steel, plus an automatic type drive train (no chains or belts to
slip or break).
We've made sure the Cub Cadet is tough, because we know
hardwork calls for it.
But we've also made it quiet. Instead of mounting the engine (available up to 16 hp.) directly on the frame, we rest it on

This Shrimp Imperial recipe is an ideal choice when a con- venient main dish is needed for home entertaining. Baked in single servings, it can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated, giving the host or
| hostess extra time with guests.
The pre-cooked shrimp is surrounded by a creamy mix- ture of mayonnaise and tomato juice with green pepper. It is then topped with crushed corn flakes and slivered toasted al- monds before baking.
When crushed and buttered, corn flakes are a suitable topping for favorite dishes. They add crunch and eye appeal as well as flavor.
Several kinds of cooked fish or seafood may be substituted for the shrimp.
Most recipes, like this one, are being developed using metric measures. Using them is easy, so read on.

To finance all these out- ings and events, the kids will raise money through dances and other activities. Each separate program will have its own fund raising com- ponent, featuring dances, coffee houses and jam ses- sions to attract customers.
The Summer Youth Pro- gram has no budget, just energy and enthusiasm. They have some inherited resources such as camping equipment that they scroun- ged from Wetaskiwin and a few other bits and pieces. However, the two youthful program supervisors do not seem daunted by this. They know that they have one invaluable asset to draw upon when they are dealing with teens.

Voice of V.J.M.
By Cheryl Cariou
Hi - for the last time of this 1978-79 school year, which has almost ended.
Ihave to tell you about a few things that happened lately in our school -- like our share lent project that raised $1,175 which was presented to Father Jake Joly.
The speeches given at the Oratory Contest varied from the topics of child abuse, prostitution, discrimination, teenage suicide to speeches about boredom and a typical day at V.J.M. The winners for serious speeches were Heather Smith, for Teenage Suicide and in a three-way tie for second were Martin Hoffart for Prostitution, Paula Pesklewis for Anima- ted Cartoons and Anne Marie Willot for What School Taught Me Why I Should Appreciate Foreign Countries. The humorous speeches were won by Joel Duhaime for Boredom and Lyle Soetaert for A Typical Day At VJM. Congratula- tions to all for having well written speeches.
Nickel line up was another big event for VJM. Each homeroom donates nickels which are given to room reps. At the end of the deadline, each homeroom takes their nickels to the gym and lines them up side by side. The winner is deter- mined by how long the line is. The winners would re- ceive the banner, Room 9H, Mr. Garritty’s class won with going twice across the gym floor. Thanks again! Pro- ceeds went to year end Grad. We collected $309.00,
Exams are coming up on June 21, 22, 25 and 26. Following in the order of language, math, science, social studies. Each exam is from 8:45 to 10:45 in the morning and the afternoons are for study. So hit the books hard, Congratulations to those who were exempted.

Kibitzer
By Shauna Oor
Well, this is it. This is the last Paul Kane Kibitzer. It’s been interesting. I thank you for the opportunity to have my say.
A little advice to anyone who decides to take this column next year; TAKE THE CREDITS! No seriously folks, it was fun and I'd like to leave you with these kind thoughts. Good Luck Graduates, welcome to the new Grade 10's and see you next year.
Now, I'd like to inform you of some. startling information, The city is putting parking meters in the city owned Fountain Recreation Centre lot. That's right, you may have to run out to your car every hour or so to make your deposit. That'll be a bit difficult with eighty minute classes. ‘‘May I be excused to go and run up my meter again?”
I don’t suppose anyone has given consideration as to where the students WILL park? Along the streets around the school? I’m sure everyone will appreciate that very much,
The following is just speculation but consider this. A parking meter has three slots, say for nickels, dimes and quarters. A nickel for % hour, a dime for an hour, and a quarter for two hours, A quarter for two hours is the highest price but it saves running out every hour. Simplicity’s sake we'll use the dime as an example. If you use the car for 200 days during the school year, it will cost you $120 just to park. The teachers pay $15 at the beginning of the year for their parking lot. The meters are scheduled to be in on September 6th.
So what are you going to do? Take the bus? If you don’t happen to live within the school bus boundaries you'll have to take the S.A.T.S. and that will cost exactly the same amount unless you buy bus passes which save you $20. ‘
Okay, so what about walking? That’s nice but, what about those 150 out of 200 days when it’s raining or a blizzard is raging.
What about alternatives? Like building a lot between the present lot and the school? No, not at the City’s expense. Well, maybe the school board will break down and build one. They've already refused but, gee, guys?? Where is all the taxpayers’ money going then? It’s sure not for heating bills, or is the below freezing classroom temperture suppose to shock us into submission?
Of course, I’m not putting down the school. I think we have the best school in St. Albert but I think this parking meter thing is just aggravating a bad situation. Why doesn’t the school just set up some kind of sticker |: program that can be sold for a much lower price that will be good for all year. Most students just don’t have that kind of money and if they do, they sure don’t want to spend it paying for attending a trivial thing like school. Maybe the whole idea is just to eliminate student parking altogether.
Do we get any say in this move? Will we stand by and let this happen? Is the 79/80 school year going to be one of action? I'd like you to think about this. Good luck on all your exams.

Talking around the District to those who know him, Geoff leaves the lasting impression of being “the person who was always there when help was needed.” His activities on the sporting scene include being past president of the Sturgeon Valley Badminton Club, coaching soccer and being a very keen long-distance cyclist.
Geoff and his family will be re-locating in Leduc very shortly. No doubt the Leduc community will benefit from his active presence. We are sorry to lose his services here in St. Albert, and take this opportunity to wish him and his family, every happiness and success in the future.
