Those capable of bending with the wind should be uble to make the necessary adjustments without loss of material goods or a sense of spiritual well-being. Those who insist upon maintaining the status quo may be in for consider- able struggle. The first days of the week may sec many in a genuine war against sudden and surprising events; by midweck, howev- er, attitudes leading to inner peace are being firmly established. There is much new in per- sonal relationships. An abili- ty to see things from another person’s point of view is essential to the furtherance of friendships. If partner- ships are to “hold,” partners must put in much effort in behalf of each other. SCORPIO:(Oct. 23-Nov. 7) - Family relatonships may appear precarious ear- ly. hh the week.

(Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Errands and odd jobs keep you on your toes this wee! trying to fit in new responsi- bility with an old time schedule.

This is not a good time to lay a friendship on the line if you can avoid it. AQUARIUS:(Jan. 20-Feb. 3) - Preparation for per- formance is fully as vital as performance itself. Seek an expert’s advice -- now. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Affairs having a bearing on a new partner- ship must be looked into at once. You may have taken a “wrong turn.” ‘PISCES:(Feb 19-March 5) -- An affair from afar makes a great difference to ou this week. Make contact. ‘elephone, write. (March 6- March 20) -- Be selective in your choice of companions this week. It is vital to suc- cess that you not have argu- ments now. ARIES:(March 21-April 4) ~ The soundness of your ide- as may be tested dramati- cally this week. Don’t ask for special favors. (April 5- April 19) -- Humility may not gain you your ends. A lit- tle aggressiveness may be just what is needed. Let your voice be heard. TAURUS:(April 20-May 5) -- Whatever you do on your own this week should go well; partnership ventures, however, may be in for ill luck. (May 6-May 20) -- Plans for financial gain or an increase in security on another plane go well. Don’t push for an ad. antage; take time. GEMINI:(May 21-June 6) — Neglect routine matters at ‘your own risk. Keep on an evan keel emotionally by keeping to old customs. (June 7-June 20) -- Promises end. CANCER:(June 21-July 7) - Take care of all finan- cial matters as early in the week as possible. Be ready to defend your position. (July 8-July 22) -- Learn by mistakes made in the recent past.

Because of its single-piece construction, a ski easily warped or lost its camber, or springiness. It wasn't until the 1930's that wooden ski construction developed the multi-lamina- tion system. Laminations are strips of varying wood glued to for widths and layers in .skis. For example, it’s not uncommon to have six lamin- ~* ations in each of a ski's five slayers~ fora total = of .-80-~ modela..Hickory, withstands a-:: laminations. vo Kent Durden, a renown- ed wildlife cinematographer, will visit Selkirk College on Nov. 28 to show his film on the Golden Eagle. Durden has contributed footage for Walt Disney nature films and has pro- duced many wildlife docu- mentary studies of his own. The program is co-spon- ~. "The more laminations (some models offer 40), the stronger the ski and the more likely it is to retain its camber and springiness over the years. Under normal conditions there is less chance that the ski will warp. - Internal layers or lamin- ations are usually of softer wood while top and bottom layers which meet greater abuse consist. of harder woods, the hardest being hickory. : Hickory skis are the best and most expensive wooden great deal of punishment. KENT DURDEN . . . wildlife cinematographer sored by the West Kootenay Naturalists’ Society and Sel- kirk's Community Education Department. The guest has travelled all over Canada and the U.S. lecturing about eagles and showing his film. - The show starts at 8 p.m. in the main lounge of the college in Castlegar and is free.

Because of their cost, buying such: skis should be regarded as an investment. Wooden ski construction is time consuming and ’re- foam is sandwiched between fiberglass top sheets and synthetic base materials. The torsion box -methed wraps fiberglass around a central ~ core of wood, foam,.and air quires the careful ‘ion,of top quality woods. Top of the line wooden models are now more expensive than various synthetic skis on the market. High quality synthetic skis were: introduced on a large scale during the ‘73-74 season: Bince-thien synthetics" material. The foam core once - have become the only type of ski used by international racers, and have begun to dominate the touring market as well. It was the Austrians who enveloped an acrylic foam core between upper layers of fiberglass and a base layer of polyethylene _ (commonly referred to as * P-Tex) to produce the first quality synthetic cross coun- try skis. P sheet is added, as is a sheet of base material. The Polyurethane (PU) injected moulded ski consists of foam injected into a mould . which contains fiberglass top sheets and synthetic base hardened usually acts as the sidewall material. Fiberglass sandwich and torsion box constructions are more expensive and durable than the PU method, al- though the latter is quicker and easier to produce. PU's lower costs suit ski packages. Synthetics are here to stay. Quality and reliability have made the new genera- tion of skis a part of the nordie equipment picture.
