By DOROTHY MITCHELL “Fabulous area—most in- teresting activites—one of the best conferences!” were some of the remarks made by Power Squadron delegates describing the recent B.C. Interior District Spring Confererreggheld in Castlegar. Bil! ener of Nelson, and his committee were respon- sible for the successful week- end which began with the Friday night welcome party and Saturday's activities at the Hi Arrow Arms Motor Hotel in Castlegar and progressed to Sunday's wind-up at the Arrow Yacht Club house on the Arrow Lake. Representing the Shu- swap, Kamloops, Okanagan squadrons, Calgary and Ed- monton, and the East and West Kootenays, some 100 CPS members enjoyed meeting the new chief commander C/C Mike Dumaresq and his wife, Muriel, of Toronto. The chief applauded PRO Bill Turner for his inter- esting “Off the Deck" publica- tions, which help keep squad- rons in touch with each other, and stressed the value of co- operation and spread of know- ledge. The national administra- tion officer, V/C Oliver Sum- mers of Victoria, reported on a coast guard boating seminar held in Los Angeles, Calif., where Canada was represented by the Red Cross and CPS. These two were the best pre- pared of all groups, and were “accused of trying to make Magellans out of boaters” in their enthusiasm for boating’ courses! CPS is concerned about “machism"—reckless showing- off of a new boat—and has designed some short intro- ductory courses for new boat- ers. Victoria had 250 at a “one hight stand.” 100 Members Attend CPS Conference Local Squadron Hosts Meet The infectious humor of R/C Ernic Harding of Nanaimo, national marine reporting offi- cer, highlighted his own ex- periences with MAREP, Ori- ginally started by the Pacific Mainland District, this program was developed nationally in 1971, at which time Harding became chairman for Vancouv- er Island, Since then, he has written the "MAREP Officer's Manual” as an adaptation of the U.S. counterpart, His 20 merit marks are well deserved. As the “eyes and ears of the hydrographic — service,” MAREP helps to watchdog Canada's far-spread coastline, checking for omissions and errors on marine charts, Hard- ing advised members to watch for new marinas and docks, or decayed and abandoned struc- tures; for silting that changes navigable channels; for “is- lands" that are really penin- sulas; for the rock that shouldn't be there! one! The explanation? An ice- berg dropped the rock as it melted and then moved on. Because charts are not * always available for interior waters, Harding advised boat- ers to “build their own.” These ean be the basis for future government charts, The local marine reporting officer, Ken Robinson of Trail, was presented with the district MAREP award “for his out- standing contribution to safe boating in the area." He has submitted over 40 reports in the past year, Saturday's annual general meeting was chaired by the district commander (retiring), Bob Mould of Edmonton.

The People's Daily, official organ of the Communist Party, said excuses put forward by the restaurant's Revolutionary Committee, including “inter- ference and sabotage” by the Gang of Four, showed indif- ference to the masses. The paper told the res- taurant it wanted the problem looked after immediately. The Gang of Four radical leaders, including Chairman Mao's widow Chiang - Ching, were purged last year and have since been accused of being responsible for a wide variety of social and political ills.
