A camera-shy visitor (right) tries out one of the old school desks. Reunion in Robson By ADRIAN CHAMBERLAIN Staff Writer One of the most enduring memories connected with the old Robson School for 62-year-old Fred Zibin is the time he played cricket in the backyard as a school boy. He whirled his bat around so far it broke his nose, he explained, tapping a still visible bump on his prosboscis. Zibin was one of a small group of returning Robson school pupils at Saturday's open house, held by the Castlegar school board. The nostalgic reunion was a chance for former pupils, teachers and others to say goodbye to the old, gray-boarded school-house, which was erected in 1916. According to school board chairman Doreen Smecher, the old Robson school will be torn down during the summer or Christmas holidays. “I had all my learning here,” said Zibin, who attended the school from 1928 to 1938. “We had no facilities .. . no arts and crafts, just the bare necessities,” he explained. “We had pencils, one or two sets of scribblers, and inkwells. “It's a lot better today, the kids have a lot more facilities,” added Zibin, now a carpenter living in Robson. Some of the returning pupils, including Zibin, remembered that the old Robson school had the luxury of flush toilets — an extravagance that few Robson homes had in those days. “We thought this was some school — (with) running water in the bathroom,” said Jean Fowler, who attended Grade 1 at the first Robson school in the Robson Memorial Church in 1914. Fowler said the outdoor games in those days included Ring-Around-the-Rosie, Prisoner's Base, and Pump-Pump Pull-Away. Bill Brown, in the Grade 8 class that same year, said he remembered playing ball in the backyard, where a “big rock” sat in the outfield. The hardy few who could smack the ball past the rock were considered good hitters. “I don't know if it’s still there now,” he said. Brown also remembered doing chores at the old Robson school. “They had a wood furnace downstairs,” he said. “If you didn't fire it just right it wasn't adequate. “I used to sweep 'the floor every doggarned day,” added Brown. There were 16 people in the eight grades being taught at the school when Margaret Condy of Castlegar was in Grade 1 in 1925. Condy said she was once reprimanded by the teacher for being more interested in what the Grade 4 students were being taught than her own work. But scolding wasn’t the only thing Condy earned back then. “I once won a Burgess book spelling prize,” she said. Those attending the open house looked at old school photographs, sat at the old-fashioned desks complete with holes for inuwells, looked up classmates’ names in long-forgotten school records, and exchanged stories about the old days. “You have to give people a chance to say goodbye (to the school),” said Smecher.

The chapter was instituted in March 1964, and constituted in November 1954, During the business Mrs. Ackerman, the present worthy matron, honored charter members. Those charter members in attendance were Mrs. H. Schellenberg, Mrs. H. John son, Mrs. D. Askew, Mrs. N. Oswald and Mrs. M. Peachey. The five ladies were in. troduced and presented with a silk rose. The first worthy matron of 30 years ago was not present. She is Mrs. Clara Saunders, now residing in Nelson. It was interesting to note that Mrs. W. Ray of White Rock, who was present when Minto was instituted was at the anniversary celebration. ‘Mrs. Ray-was a resident in Trail at that time and took an active part in the beginning of Minto. She was given a special welcome, and pre sented with a rose. The past matrons and pa. trons were all also introduced and presented with a small token of appreciation. Guests came from Nelson, Trail, Rossland, Kettle Falls, Colville and White Rock. Congratulations and birth. day wishes were extended to Minto. At the close;of the meeting, a social time was enjoyed and refreshments were served. The serving table was cen- tred with a decorated star- shaped birthday cake which was cut and served. Thanks and congratulations were ex- tended to Mrs. W. Chress for the cake. Meanwhile, on April 7 the members of Minto held their annual cancer tea, with the entire proceeds going to the Eastern Star cancer project. Chapters throughout Brit ish Columbia hold a cancer tea during the month of April. The grand chapter uses the money for wards cancer research, materials for dressings and other items used in the cancer clinic. The Minto thanked the Le- gion for the use of the hall, which is the Legion's contri. bution to fighting cancer. Phe Legion—Hall was —at- tractive with the tea tables each being centred with a daffodil in a petit crystal holder. The head table, covered with a yellow cloth and lace overlay, was attractive. It had a small raised island which was covered with a driftwood piece containing assorted spring flowers and a silver bowl holding mauve tapers and fresh daffodils. United Way raises $46,100 The Castlegar and District United Way announced Tues- day that it raised $46,100 in its 1983 fund-raising cam- paign. According to United Way spokesman Roy McNeil, this represents 74.3 per cent of the $62,000 goal. McNeil said the unsteady Images dance on April 14 The Images collective will present a night of song and dance April 14 at the Vallican Whole Community Centre in the Slocan Valley. Images is the oldest rural women's newspaper in Can ada, operating in the Koot enays since 1973. The femin. ist paper is supported by subscriptions, sales, advertis- ing and benefits. The event is billed as “a night of feminist fun and con. vivial culture.” Performers include Jean: ette Grittani, Pat Griffiths, Bonnie Evans, and Angela Hryniuk, who make up the Images ad hoc singers. All were welcome. Ad. vance tickets are on sale at the Nelson Women’s Centre. economic situation in B.C. “affects the United Way in- come considerably.” “Over half of the Castlegar and District United Way income is from payroll pled- ges — the remainder being public donations,” he said. “The local president and directors of the United Way would like to thank all of the public for their participation in the 1983 campaign,” added MeNeil. Mrs. C. Ackerman, worthy matron, and Mrs. S. Par- tridge, associate matron, wel- comed the guests as they ar- rived. Presiding at the bake table were Mrs. D. Craig, Mrs. L. Buffett, Ms. J. Nicholson, and Mrs. M. Peachey. Serving were Mrs. D. Mis kell, Mrs. H. Schellenberg, Mrs. A. Sylvest, Mrs. K. Torgalson, Mrs. W. Craw ford, and Mrs. L. Klimchuk. The kitchen committee was Mrs. D. Wickett assisted by Mrs. H. Anderson, Mrs. W. Chress, Mrs. N. Oswald, Mrs. A. Gouk, Mrs. D. Ste- wart and Mrs. D. MacNicol. Tea tickets were sold by Mrs. H. Johnson and Mrs. W. Sommerfield. There was also a table which held a display of work done by the mem- vers. These were crochet bibs which are used by can cer patients who have throat cancer and used stamps which are trimmed by mem- bers then sold. The proceeds into the cancer fund. ‘he door prize donated by Mrs. N. Zuk was won by Mrs. D. Askew All the proceeds raised throughout B.C. go into the grand chapter of B.C. cancer project.
