Nelson and Grand Forks a number of those present could take that message per- sonally. Reports were given by Curtis from Fruitvale, PI Waterman welcomed the visitors, and called for the National Anthem and a verse of the seniors’ hymn, “Blessed be the Tie that Binds,” to be sung before turning the meeting over to zone president Mrs. Jessie Donnan. With Mrs. Donnan on the platform was zone secretary- treasurer, Mr. Robert Lloyd of the Trail branch. Before the business meet- ing began, Mrs. Dorna had asked Dr. Keith Merritt to give a brief talk on geron- tology, one of his specialities, and certainly of special in- terest to this particular audi- ence. Dr. Merritt stressed the importance of doctor-patient relationships, emphasizing the need for a full description from the patient about all troubling symptoms.

By RON NORMAN Editer With a kiss from his wife, a smile and a wave of his band, A.V. (Marc) Marcolin said goodbye Thursday night to Cominco Ltd. after more than 42 years with a giant resource-based’ firm. Nearly 400 friends and co-workers turned out for the special retirement banquet at Trail Memoria! Auditorium honoring Marcolin, the man credited with launching the $700 million modernization program at Trail's lead-zinc operations which in turn ensured Cominco’$ dominant role in Trail for a decades to come. Marcolin retired from Cominco at the end of March as its p of fi ials division, and president and chief executive officer of Cominco Elec tronies Materials Inc. of Spokane. “Cominco is the best company I ever worked for,” said Marcolin. “Of course, it’s the only company I ever worked for,” he quickly added, to the laughter of the crowd andghead table. Born in Crows Nest, Alta., Marcolin graduated from the University of Alberta with a B.Se (honors) in chemistry in 1941. He joined Cominco at Calgary in that ear. z Between 1946 and 1958 he held positions at Trail — first in the heavy water plant, then in the phosphate sec tion and finally in personnel. He moved to head office at Montreal in 1958 and was manager of metal sales in 1961, becoming director of research and corporate development in 1964. He moved to Spokane as vice-president of Cominco American Inc. and became senior vice-president in 1971. In 1972 he was made assistant to the president of Cominco at head office in Vancouver and then vice-presi. dent of corporate services in the same year. In 1974 he returned to Trail as vice-president of the B.C. group, and as the senior executive for the Trail and Kimberley operations and hydro generating interests. In.J977, under his direction, a long-term program started to modernize and expand the Kimberley and Trail operations. In 1981 he was placed in charge of Cominco's i ing activity in and of electronic materials at the Trail and Spokane sites. In the nearly three years he spearheaded the field, production expanded aod marketing broadened widely. Marcolin is a direetor of Comineo American Inc.-and West Kootenay Power and Light Co., @ trustee of the Discovery Foundation of B.C: and is in his second year as chairman of the Mining Association of B.C. As well, on the 75th anniversary of Cominco’s incor- poration, in 1981, the City of Trail Mareolin’s personal interest in the community and his industrial leadership by making him a Freeman of the City. Marcolin and wife, Grace, will eontinue to live in Trail. The head table and co-workers at the banquet was like a who's who of Cominco, Longtime friend and co-worker Jim Gray handled the master of ceremony duties, while Bob Black gave the blessing. Gray recalled his early days in a car pool with Marcolin who always used the expression “In my humble opinion... and then you'd get anything but a humble opinior Gray noted: “I hold the man in great esteem and affection.” . Norm Anderson, president and chief executive officer of Cominco, recalled one of the first times he met Marcolin at a company opening. He said Marcolin congratulated him on doing a good job with the opening. “He recognized that people went out of their way to . d@ a good job,” Anderson said. He credited Marcolin with pulling the electronics materials division together. “Nobody else, I don’t think, could have done it,” he GOOBYE TO COMINCO «++ A.V. (Marc) Marcolin, former pres- ident and chiet executive officer of Cominco Elec- tronics Materials Inc. of Spokane, said bye Thursday night to 400 friends and co-workers Pictured with Marcolin his wite, Grace. Marcolin was instru- mental in turning Cominco's electronics division intoa flourishing business said. “You can be very proud of what you did.” On that note, Ed Hirsch, who replaces Marcolin as president of the electronics materials divisibn, said Marcolin sensed the long-term potential of the division and threw his support behind it. “Things changéd rather drastically in 1981,” Hirsch said. He said Marcolin recognized that the diffused management structure stood in the way of the division's growth and suggested it be placed under one man — himself. Hirsch said Marcolin quickly turned the division around to the point where today it provides 300 jobs and $50 million in annual sales — “and it's profitable.” Ted Fletcher, vice-president of the B.C. group, pointed out Marcolin’s “tremendous interests in people . . on and off the job.” “Your warmth and sincerity will long be remem. bered by the B.C. group,” he said. Fletcher also thanked Marcolin for “sage advice and coaching” and said he enjoyed his association with him. Provincial Labor Minister Bob McClelland flew into Trail at the last moment to make it in time for the banquet. : He brough greetings from the provincial govern. ment, and said “You only need to stroll downtown to see “ oat eee $500 MINIMUM (Rates subject to change without notice) * Add %% Interest If Calculated Annually.
