A8& EDMONTON (CP) — For $20, people are getting hooked on flying. The Edmonton Flying Club has found that people who take its “discovery flight,” a short hop in a_ small Cessna, often end up t- aking a full training course. The club has a member- ship of about 2,700 and John Flint, the general manager, estimates that at any given time, about 300 would-be pilots are taking ground school and flight training. Many of them took the $20 Cessna ride and found the thrill of flying infectious. Judy Clarke, the club’s CASTLEGAR NEWS, August 5, 1981 Get hooked on flying administrative supervisor, says the courses leading to a basic pilot's licence cost about $8,600. That includes training, club membership, books and flying time. Club members can rent planes for $42 to $132 an hour, depending on the size of the craft. Getting a full range of ratings for different planes and ekille, thaugh, could cost up to $15,000. MUST BE 16 Applicants must be at least 16 years old to get a student pilot permit and 17 to get a permanent licence. Flyers also have to pass a medical examination. Completing the training successfully allows the b- eginner to pilat a single- engine light aircraft during daylight hours and from there, the sky's the limit, “That's why people learn to fly,” Clarke said. “Just for the sheer joy of doing these things. It’s a very personal skill.” Once the basic rating is obtained, pilots can add to their skills by getting ins- trument, multi-engine or commercial licences. The club has 84 aircraft for recreation and flight school, as well as two ground simulators, It also has its own maintenance facilities. Accountants vital to future VANCOUVER (CP) — The Canadian economy will de- teriorate and possibly coll- apse unless business can att- raot more managers, espe- cially accountants, says the of the economy Today's graduates are the senior managers of tomo- rrow, he says, and without them, business will flounder in double-digit inflation, run- away | interest rates and Chartered Accountants of Tom Cook says there is a severe shortage of managers in training, especially acco- untants, “We're staffing our offices with a great deal of diff- iculty,” Cook said. “If we project into the future, there's just a critical shortage coming. The wate: off may be But the , good news is that fierce competition for char- tered accountants is inducing many companies to offer an- nual salaries of about $25,000 and wage increases of as much as 20 per cent, says Robert Half of Vancouver Ltd., an angency which spe- cializes in placing account- ants and data processors. Vancouver Ltd. doubled its advertising budget this year Canadian Farm vacation benefits all by JULIE WATSON CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) — Getting back to the farm is a break for many a city or town dweller — the chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of urban life. “It’s a dream easily real- ized on Prince Edward Island, where about 80 government-inspected farm- vacation homes are operated during the tourist season. Visions of relaxing hours spent strolling country lanes, roaming fields or sitting back on a country porch are the big selling points a _faym. holiday offers those :.who spend most of their ' lites,7 pounding city pavement . ‘and: { fighting rush-hour traffii Another point in a time when economics make a difference to a vacationing family is cost. Vacationing on a farm often proves cheaper than staying in hotels or motels, says Myra Scott, a farm-home operator and secretary-treasurer of the P.E.I. Farm Vacation Tourist Association. With her husband Allison, she runs a farm vacation home at Marshfield, about five kilometres north of Char- lottetown. While Myra takes care of the guests, her husband operates an active farm, raising cattle and grow- ing grain and hay. WORK TOGETHER The Scotts said running the operation is a joint enterprise, with each partner yeady to help the other. them to have to spend so much time at home. When they do go out they rely on friends and family to take care of the operattion. Running the tourist home is a good way to supplement income, especially, if the farm has a bad year, she said. Perhaps those who benefit most from her love of farm life and creating a family environment are the visitors. Spotless rooms offer com- fortable accommodations in a warm, friendly atmosphere, including the privacy of the entire upstairs floor. One of the things Myra said the guests enjoy most is the home-cooked, country fresh meals, ‘though they have a constant flow of visitors during the summer months, the Scotts said they enjoy the farm life so it doesn’t bother “They love homemade bread, fresh eggs and fresh vegetables from the farm. Tourists are especially fond of fresh strawberries and raspberries or my special apple sauce when in ‘season. they just love anything like that.’ She said talking to the visitors, getting to meet people from all walks of life is a bonus. It’s really thing to inan ful attempt to attract more accountants. The number of commerce graduates from Canadian universities is inadequate to fill vacancies in public and in- dustrial accounting. Some schools—like the University of B.C., which historically provided half the provine's chartered accou- ntants—are being forced through budget restrictions to restrict enrolment. dmitted look forward to each sum- mer. They like to talk and tell each other where they're from and what they do.” The Scotts have had visit- ors from across North Amer- ica, Mexico and New Zealand. The farm's surroundings are an attraction in them- selves, with a country lane outside leading down to. the lazy Hillsborough River, shady trees on the front lawn and picnic tables nearby offering the visitors scenic spots to sit and relax away the warm summer days.

Another problem could lie with the American PGA tour, which holds the right of ap- proval of any event joining the tour” At least one member of the PGA tour policy board, the policy-making body for the group, expressed doubt that such approval would be given for the South event, to be staged by Sun City owner Sol Kerzner.

The 6-foot-5, ‘295-pound tight end turned fullback is part of Wood's formula that introduced the double’ slot- back formation to Toronto Argonauts’ offence. The in- side speed of Paul Pearson and Dave Newman now com- pliments the outside quick- ness of Bob Gaddis and Terry Greer to give the Argos their most potent passing offence in years. Meanwhile, Muller, a nine- year Canadian Football League veteran, struggles to adjust to a new position while sacrificing his role-as one of the Argos’ most reliable re- ceivers. “I look at the people we have on offence and they're great athletes,” Muller, 29, said of Pearson, Newman, Gaddis and Greer. “It’s smart football to get the ball to people who can run with it after they catch it, and they're all faster than I am. “I think the double slot- back is one of the greatest innovations we've ‘had. It makes the game so much more exciting, especially for the fans.” WORKS ON PLAN Even though Muller has caught only six passes so far this season, it was enough to move him into third place among pass receivers in Argonaut history with 289 receptions. But, now as the blocking back for running- mate Cedric Minter, Muller must forget any ‘thoughts of Mexico and‘ Japan seeking full-fledged membership on the American tour. pass g glory and con- centrate on making Wood's plan look good. “I want to justify what the coaches. have done,” Muller said. “The last thing I would .. ever-want-to; sppen: is: people to point at him (Wood) and say it’s his fault if this doesn't- work. But if it doesn’t, it will be for one reason — because Peter just didn’t do his job.
