Victim wins right to fly

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Polio victim Theresa Duch-
arme's six-month battle with
airline and government of-
ficials paid off during the past
week when she became the
first person requiring an on-
board life-support system to
fly as a regular passenger on
a Canadian airline.

“I'm setting a precedent
for somebody else,” said
Ducharme, 36, as she waited
to board the flight back to
Winnipeg after a five-day
visit with her brother here.

“Any passenger such as

myself who wants to travel |

can just phone Air Canada
and ask for the respirator
box,” she said. “It's exciting.
It's great to be alive. I've
wanted to fly for a long
time.”

Ducharme, a Winnipeg res-
ident, breathes with the help
of a battery-powered respir-
ator.

Air Canada spokesman
Henry Thow said special
provisions had to be made for
Ducharme's return trip. *

Her wet-cell battery had to
be exchanged for a lower-

Birthday
guests all

over 100 years

MOSCOW (AP) — A So-
viet woman went to the city
for the first time and cele-
brated her 180th birthday
with 67 neighbors — all of
them over 100, Moscow Ra-
dio reported.

Shamsa Ibadova lives in
the Caucasus ins, an

powered dry one for safety
reasons, and a box to hold
beth the battery and respir-
ator had to be bolted to the
floor of the passenger cabin
under her seat.

“If there's turbulence, ev-
erything that's loose becomes
a missile,” Thow said.

The emergency oxygen
mask designed to drop from a
compartment above her head
also was removed and a tube
added that could be inserted
into her respirator.

But Ducharme was not
pleased that airline staff doc-
tors were also on board in
case of an emergency. “I told
them I wanted to travel as a
passenger, not as a medical
case.”

If necessary, Ducharme
can go for about 10 minutes
without the respirator by
what she calls “frog breath-
ing.”

“I take gulps of air into my

‘mouth and guide them into

my lungs," she said, explain-
ing how she would survive
the five to 10 minutes while
her husband Cliff connected
the system to the plane.

Ducharme, who said she is
writing her autobiography,
has depended on the small
machine for the last seven
years. Before that, she spent
most of her day in an iron
lung.

Disabled by polio at the
age of eight, Ducharme was
married three years ago to
Cliff, the bus driver who had
been driving her around
Winnipeg in vans for the dis-
abled for about nine years.

When the couple first de-
cided to fly to Vancouver in
April, ministry of transport
and Air Canada officials re,
sisted because of possible
medical complications.

The airline eventually un-
dertook the project as a con-
tribution to the International
Year of the Disabled.

Meeting on Tolstoy
and Baha'i faith

By Rebecca Strouse

Count Leo Tolstoy and his
appreciation of the Baha'i
Faith will be the topic of a
public meeting on Monday at
7 p.m. in the Hi Arrow Arms
Motor Hotel banquet room.

Dr. A.M. Ghadinian of
Montreal, Que., will be
speaking on the subject of
the great Russian writer
Count Leo Tolstoy — his life,
his vision of religion, and his

area known for its residents’
longevity, said Soviet news
reports.

Tolstoy wrote two cel-
ebrated novels, War and
Peace (1869) and Karenina
(1877). He is also known for
his short stories, diaries and
essays. Mise

Dr. Ghadirian states: “Un-
doubtedly, much of Tolstoy's
power as a portrayer of men
and events stemmed from a
passionate and life-long
search for truth, a search
which transformed him from
a care-free young literateur
and man-about-town into a

Employers must changemethods

OTTAWA (CP) — Canada
is doomed to persistent high
unemployment and continu-
ing shortages of skilled work-
ers if governments and em-
ployers do not make signi-
ficant reforms in education,
work training and job place-
ment methods, says a par-
‘liamentary report released
Tuesday. ©

The report, by a special
parliamentary group that
looked into employment op-
portunities in the 80s, made
186 recommendations aimed
at overcoming such problems
as employer reluctance to
train workers, a poor federal-
provincia] government man-
power policy record and fun-
ctional illiteracy of about one
quarter of Canadians.

The group of eight mem-
bers of Parliament, headed
by Liberal Warren Allmand,
found that shortages of per-
sonnel in such fields as weld-
ing, electronics and business
#ianagers “exist side by side
with unacceptable rates of
‘anemployment.”

They predicted a continu-

ation of this situation, which -

prompted their study, unless
authorities take major new

steps to match the workforce
with available jobs.

The eight MPs agreed on
the general findings and most
of the recommendations. But
the two Progressive Conser-
vative members, Jim
Hawkes of Calgary West and
John McDermid of Bramp-
ton-Georgetown, dissented
on three key proposals,

Scientists
search for

rare fish

TOKYO (AP) — Twenty
scientists from around the
world will visit the Comoros
islands north of Mozmbique
next month to search for a
species of fish thought to be
extinct until 1938, a Japanese
ichthyologist said.

The fish, a coelacanth, is
about 1.5 metres long and
weighs about 50 kilograms. It
was thought to be extinct
until local fishermen caught
one off South Africa in 1938.
Since then, about 50 have
been caught off the Comoros.

The two Conservatives re-
jected the committee's rec-
ommendations for a so-called
full employment policy, for a
tax-credit system to encour-
age employer training of
workers, and for contract
compliance under which gov-
ernments would give more
business to companies with
good training programs.

They disagreed with these
proposals because “the Can-
adian people have the right
to expect that Parliament
will not impose multi-million
dollar programs without first
determining with some as-
surance that the intended
benefits will be achieved.”

Highlights of proposals to

national employment and
training plan, longer-term
job creation programs, more

proportions and, finally, into

breadth of view transcended

illiteracy and to make blue-
collar work more appealing.

little-known Baha'i Faith,

Aerophobia ie

WINNIPEG (CP) —
You've dreaded this for a
long time. You're sitting in
the airport, an accomplish-
ment in itself, and you hear
‘the announcement over the
public address system.

You can board now.

You're standing in line,
shaking, hoping you forgot
your ticket at home, but it’s
right there in your pocket.

You sit down in your seat
and the stewardess goes
through a routine demon-
stration. This is what to do if
the plane is in trouble, she
illustrates in a matter-of-fact

way.

She checks to see if your
seatbelt is fastened, but you
had it tight the second you
nervously sat down. The
plane begins its takeoff, and
you're sweating, maybe-near
tears, Se ET
“You ask the Stewirdéss to
stop the plane, but it’s too

late, you're airborne. All you
can do now is prevent your-
self from panicking, and look
forward to setting foot on
land again.

FIGURES SIMILAR

According to one American
study, one person in 10 in the
U.S. who could afford to fly
will chose not to because of
aerophobia — the fear of fly-
ing. The figures should be
similar for Canada.

Two clinical psychologists
and a behavior therapist in
Winnipeg have been con-
ducting the “fearful flyer's
program" to overcome that
phobia since 1977, and they
say their success rate is
about 90 per cent.

Psychologists Marion
Wright and Dr. Garry Haw-
ryluk and Vincent Paul, a be-
haviour therapist, operate

“We try to get an idea,
when they come, of what
specifics are involved in the
phobia because flight is quite
a complicated thing,” said
Wright.

“You're confined in a space
from which you can’t escape
and you're high up. You've
given control over to some-
body else, you're leaving.
home, you may think, ‘What
if I crash or burn up?’ that
kind of thing.

“So we give them a ques-
tionnaire and try to assess
the specific ‘things that are.
the most fearful for them
about flying.”

RELAXATION TAUGHT

The program consists of 10
1%-hour sessions at a cost of
about $850. Wright said pa-
tients first are taught how to

“You can’t be both physi-

the course are de-sensitiza-

Paul siad de-sensitization is
the process of reducing a
patient's anxiety in the pres-
ence of things that are
making him anxious.

Paul said de-sensitization
is most helpful to the fearful
flyer because it exposes him
to the feared stimulus, an
airplane, in gradual steps.

Films, slides and exposing
patients to the airplane are
part of the de-mystification
process. Patients are told
how planes are built and why
they are safe.

His art dies

with its owner

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Mike

. Mitchell's idea of a work of

art is an elaborate oriental
motif tatooed in a dozen col-
ors on the back of a St. Louis
woman,

Mitchell spent more than
10 hours on that tattoo. It has
three shades of green, two of
red, and two of orange.

It’s a Japanese painting
showing a young woman in a
black gown leaning against a
tree. The background is a

ple would tattoo everyone in
town with the same needle.”
Today, tattooists must be
licensed in some states, In
others, however, the practice
is logal without licence.
Sailors and morotcycle-
gang members used to fre-
quent the old-time tattooing
den. No longer. Mitchell's
clientelle includes bankers,
lawyers, doctors. Almost half
his customers are women.
“Tattoos are symbols of in-

ridge, a range, and
some fluffy clouds against a
blue sky.

Mithcell displays the tattoo
ina special photo album of his
work, along with hundreds of
other elaborate designs he
has created during his decade
in the business. ¢

A large, bearded man,
Mitchell says he's a bit sorry
that his work, unlike other
art forms, will one day lie
unappreciated six feet under
the ground.

But he thinks he'd be able
to suppress the urge to dig
up some of his former cus-
tomers, even the ones that
have $5,000 worth of tattoos
covering their bodies.

BEGAN IN TEENS‘

“They can take them to the |

grave with them,” he says.
“There's at least time for
someone to appreciate them
while the owner is alive.”

Mitchell's interest in tat-
tooing started when, as a
teenager, he traded some
motorcycle parts for some
tattoo equipment.

He refined his technique
over the years, visiting ex-
perts in Chicago and San
Francisco, until he came to
consider himself an artist.

“They don't recognize it as
an art form, but it’s part of
America in some ways,” he
says.

Tattooists were dealt a
blow last July when a federal
appeals court rules that the
Minnesota State Fair could
prohibit tattooing on the
grounds that the procedure is
a health hazard.

“Tattooing has changed,”
Mitchell contends.: “Years

ago ‘they never -used toy “ ~~

yy,” says Mitchell.
“Most people want some-
thing no one else has.”

A man from
Texas, for example, had a
train tattooed running
around his arm, while a
clothing salesman got Fruit
of the Loom symbol.

Another man, miserable
after a divorce, wanted a
tattoo of his ex-wife's name
covered up. So Mitchell went
to work adding roses and
stars over the old tatoo
—and included eight skulls
for the eight years the man
was married.

] Civil suit

Against juveniles

WINNIPEG (CP) — A
lawyer has launched a civil
suit claiming damages
against two juveniles who al-
legedly broke into his Win-
nipeg home and stole $8,810
in furs and jewelry.

Paul Walsh said he decided
to take the action because he
didn’t want to “roll over too
easily” after being victim:

Walsh said he has never
heard of a similar action
being taken through the
courts. Should he be success-
ful, other such suits may be
launched, he said.

“What the hell, they broke
into my house, stole my stuff,
they'll pay me back,” Walsh
said in an interview.

In a statement of claim
filed in Court of Queen's
Bench, Walsh said he and his
wife “have endured anxiety
and anguish thereby suffer-
ing general damages.”

Walsh said the juveniles
who broke into his home last
March stole many one-of-
a-kind items which had senti-
mental value. Walsh was out

of town at the time.

“Just because a person isa
juvenile doesn't mean he Is
immune from a lawsuit or a
judgment which lasts for-
ever,” Walsh said. “This
means that at some time,
when they get a job and have
the where-with-all to pay me
back, I'll collect.”

Herb Stephens, acting dep-
uty police chief, said if
thieves face the possibility of
being sued for committing
such crimes, they may be de-

tered. ,

“Even if the victims don't
get full restitution, the
thieves shouldn't think they
can get away scot-free by
putting.in a short time in
jail,” Stephens said.

Walsh said he didn't expect.
the juveniles to pay back the
money within a week if his
suit is successful. However,
“these people know that they:
just can't do their time (in
jail) and then get out and
figure it's behind them.

“It won't because they're
going to have to pay me
