Vagness of Cowan Dpar Bothers

About 80 persons, includ-

Funeral Service Held

For Ronald

Funeral services were held
Tuesday from the chapel of the
Castlegar Funeral Home for
Ronald Howard Eli Heglin, 16,
who died suddenly. Saturday.

Born in Nelson. Dec. 28,

1957, he was educated” in
Castlegar and lived all his life
here.

He is survived by his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ronald
Heglin; one brother, Richard

‘Helin, 16

and one sister Maryanne, all at
home.

Also surviving are his
grandfather Howard Heglin of
Nanaimo and his grandparents,
Mr. and Mrs. Eli Sopow of
Castlegar.

Pallbearers | were John
Salikin, Jim Olson, “Allan
Heglin, David Heglin, Gerald
Heglin and Eli Sopow.

Organist *Mrs, Evelyn
Hunter played hymns “The Old
Rugged Cross” and "Safe in the
Arms of Jesus” with Mrs. C. V.

naird.

of The govern-
ment is also willing-to assume
all capital expenditures and.
operational cost. with the
exception of student fees which
will be retained much the same
as they are now.

Dr. Kaller stated that the:
people of the Kootenay region
were willing’ to try:a totally.

would bei “like ai an ‘exiention of
that concept.

“Although > this will not
solve all the present problems
existing in the educational a eld
in’ the Kootenays, it
different, new realistic solution
to the demands :of-- todays
educational needs,” he said.

Community involvement is
vital to the success of such a
facility and feedback to the
government, the colleges and
the news media on the
recommendations is the only
way those involved will. know
the feelings of the public it
must. serve. The Kootenay
region has been chosen to be
the proving ground for such a
venture because the commis-
sion fell that the population of
the area made it economically
unfeasible for the support of
three. separate facilities (Sel-
kirk, N.D.U. anda. new
community college in the East
Kootenay).

Dr. Kaller feels that the
people of this area are ready for
‘such a comprehensive program
because of the industrial nature
of the population, the distances
students must now travel to get
the type of programs that could
be offered by such a facility and
the problems encountered
when students try to transfer
from one institution to another.

“ “Education has changed in the

past 10. years from an ivory
tower approach to. one of
common sense that intends to
prepare the students for the
world in which they must make
a living,” said Dr. ° Kaller.
“Therefore, the general ap-
proach to those educational
needs must change to one that
is integrated and interrelated
and depends on the co-opera-

tion of the educators,”

Those at the meeting
seemed anxious about the loss
of the very personalized rela-
tionship that has been fostered
at Selkirk. Dr. Kaller said there
is ‘no reason for the. basic
character of Selkirk to change,

but rather to extend this .

attitude over a greater. area
and- a greater number of
students, i

There were few questions
and it appeared most. people
went away from the meeting. .

tation and pondering the
