What is What is H?

- Easter Seal House

‘+ What is Eastern Seal House?

Some Castlegar residents al-
ready know.

According to the 1976
Annual Report of Lions Easter
Seal Society “Parents whose
children must go to Vancouver

General Hospital for diagnosis

a special

town, they need a place to stay
near the hospital at a price they
ean afford. They are welcome at
Easter Seal House and it is only
$3 a night for a handicapped
child and parent.

“There are five suites with
small kitchens, certainly not
fancy, but very comfortable. On
the ground floor there is a main
kitchen where mothers gather
for tea and talk about their

problems with other mothers—
all have one thing in common—
a sick child.”

Recently, the Castlegar
Selkirk Lady’ Lions donated
$250 to Easter Seal House. This
donation purchased = new
vacuum cleaner, sn umbrella
stroller, and a radio for the

Seal House said the purchases
were very much needed and
appreciated and would be put
to good use.

Spruce Budworm
Spray Program
Uneconomical

An internal report pre-
pared by the British Columbia
Forest Service says a chemical
spray program to control the
western spruce budworm can-
not be justified economically for
1978.

Forest Minister Tom Wa-
terland said the report found
trees lose height and diameter
growth from the insect, but
that tree mortality is lower
than was indicated previously.

“Therefore, the adverse,
effect on the annual allowable
cut is not considered signifi-
cant,” Waterland told a news
conference, “and a cost-benefit
study based on this updated -
information indicates an opera-
tional spray program cannot be
economically ‘justified in 1978.” .

‘The minister said the re-
port found that there would be
no adverse effects on humans
or non-target organisms by.
spraying if. it- should be re-
quired,’

Germany, the United States,
and throughout Canada.

“In trying to describe our
province to sdnucaz keDestern
Canada recently,” ‘McCarthy
said, “I told them that we have
the best of ail worlds from
excitement to serenity, from
cosmopolitan cities to the ram-
bling countryside, from skiing
to swimming, and from golfing
to fishing.

“Tourism British Colum:
bia’s new market identity will
portray our super, natural land
and its people.”

Addition For
‘Nakusp Hospital

The hospital advisory com-
mittee of the regional district
will consider a proposed inter-
mediate-care addition to the
Arrow Lakes Hospital at Na-
kusp.

The Halcyon Home Society
there has changed its mind
about building a separate 40-

bed facility, and is looking atan |

addition to the hospital instead.

Hospital board members
have already written the minis-
try of' health saying they
approve of this plan and say it
may be the intelligent alter-
native for a community the size
of Nakusp.

To accommodate the pro-
posed expansion, the Arrow
Lakes Hospital has asked the
province to provide a recrea-
tion and therapy area, a dining
area, bathrooms and an as-yet-
unknown number of additional
beds.

‘Finder Fears for His Life

_Cash Causes Insomnia

Aman who found a suitcase
containing $384,000 in cash
acorly three yents.ago says he
still lives in fear
Detroit state police officers’ say
his fears are valid.

Officials have speculated
that the money was stashed
away by members of an interna-
tioal artgsmuggling ring.

Thomas Powell, owner of
the property where the suitcase
was found, was among 12
persons indicted by a federal
grand jury on charges of con-
spiting to smuggle hashish olf
from Colombia.

But neither Powell nor the
other defendants were ever
located, and the indictment was
dismissed three months ago. ©

A young hunter, identified
in court records only as John
Doe, stumbled upon a locked
aluminum suitcase in an Osce-
ola Township area in October,
1974, He took the suitcase home
and called state police.

A trooper pried open a
corner and, seeing that it con-
tained money, took Doe and the

where a detective opened it.

“I just couldn’t believe it,””
Doe recalled in an interview
recently in The News.” “A
detective got on the phone to the

+ allozacy#genaears” office and

said, ‘We've got a suitcase here
that has about a half-million
dollars in it.’

Troopers told Doe to go
home and keep quiet. If the
owner didn't come forward
within a year, they said, Doe
would get half the money.

Doe's lawyer, John: Ashton
of Plymouth, placed a notice in a
local newspaper and at the
township hall stating that ‘‘cer-
tain monies:-and goods’ had
been found in Osceola Township
and advising the owners’ to
contact his office. But there was
never a response, Ashton said.

To Fight

Discrimination
The West Kootenay Wo-
men’s Association, through a
grant from the Secretary of
State, has created the Women's
Advocacy Program (W.A.P.) to
act with, and on behalf of,

women facing discrimination in

the community. The program
will attempt to identify re-
current problem areas and
work to eliminate them.

Pamphlets are being dis-
tributed throughout the Nelson
and surrounding area, with
information and a response
form for women seeking assis-
tance of W.A.P.,

A spokeswoman for the
program, Ms. Bonnie Baker,
explains: “While some of the
most blatant forms‘of discrimi-
nation are no longer practiced,
there are still many instances in
which women face discrimina-
tion and have no place to go for
help. The Women's Advocacy
Program will provide that
place. -

“For instance," Ms. Baker
continued, “we know that some
women in this area have been
advised by lawyers that they do
not have the right to keep their
maiden names when they mar-
ry. This is not true, and we will
be sending information to law-
yers about areas of the law that
specifically relate to women.

“Many things of this type
may go unnoticed, and we hope
to provide current information
to ensure that such errors are
not continually repeated.”
