Tribute to Louis LOUIS MAGLIO .. seven terms The community of Nelson on Oct. 5 will pay tribute to the man who-has held the office of mayor of Nelson MALIBU, CALIF. (AP) — They may have tough and tawdry images, but when’ rock star Madonna and actor Sean Penn were married on a quiet bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the affair had the look of an old-fashioned wedding. The bride, whose nude photos graced both Play- boy and Penthouse maga- -zines this month, wore an off-white gown with a three-metre long train and veil. Penn, ‘who played a doped-out teenager in the film Fast Times at- Ridge- mont High and a spy in Falcon and the Snowman, wore a black tuxedo. before sunset Friday af- ternoon,, and Madonna tossed the traditional bri- dal bouquet to a bevy of guests, including actress Diane Keaton and a purple- haired Cher.

Almost 20 years ago, Louis Maglio took office for the first time as Mayor of Nelson, defeating Gene Bodard, ‘mayor at that time and Tom Shorthouse, a former mayor. Maglio has been in seven different terms _ since his election. The term ending in November will be his last as he wants to retire.

Maglio's record of service as mayor is an impressive one, including guiding the city into the construction of a multi-million dollar sewage treatment plant which keeps the Kootenay River cleaner than it has ever been before the city was founded.

Botha’s major policy speech last week, according to South Africa's new am- bassador to Canada, who also dismissed Bishop Desmond Tutu's stature as a_ black leader as media hype. Despite widespread criti- cism, Botha’s policy state- ment marked a watershed in relations between white and black South African’s, be- cause it signalled a shift from an emphasis on ethnic. diver- sity and ethnic nationalism to commonality of purpose, Am bassador Glenn Babb said in an interview on the CTV net- In his speech, Botha. said he was willing to talk to un- identified black leaders, but offered no concrete conces- sions ‘to the black majority, rejectéd equal voting rights for blacks and made _ no moves toward dismantling the apartheid policy of racial segregation. : The speech was widely condemned by black South African leaders. Canadian authorities also were dis- appointed and are reportedly considering further sanctions.

The thrust of this speech by President Botha was built up quite strongly by the media and perhaps too much was expected from it, Babb id. . said. ploy . I do not see how that can help anywhere, it just ex- cerbates the situation, Babb said. He said South Africa ap- preciated that Canada was trying to maintain a dialogue with his country and warned that if dialogue breaks down, you break down any possible influence on the. future events in South Africa. Black. Anglican Bishop Desmond Tutu, who won'the 1984 Nobel peace prize, said he believed the chances of achieving peaceful change in South Africa’ following Both’s speech were virtually nil. However,’ Babb shrugged off Tutu's criticism. —~ . He is not the only leader there is, Babb said. He is the one with the highest profile, undoubtedly, and he is a media hype, there is no doubt about it. Babb said the. western media had exaggerated vio- lence in South Africa, which he described as isolated and marginal. More than 600 people have died during the past year, and all but three were Diacks. Babb said _ refusing to extend voting rights to all black individuals was not un- democratic because the black’ population was made up of different groups with vary- ing’ needs. Only group par- ticipation in government would protect minority rights, he said. President Botha said quite clearly that everybody can participate at the highest level. If that is not demo- cracy, I don't know what is, he said. What we want is a recon- ciliation where all of us can participate, where we can negotiate a type of govern- ment where not one will be excluded because. there is just one majority and we are counting heads — and by counting heads we exclude certain people from either the levers of power or par- ticipation in government. Council wants Dash 7 By CasNews Staff Castlegar city. council is upset with Time Air's de- cision not to return the Dash 7 airplane to the Castlegar- Calgary route. Time Air officials told Ma- yor Audrey Moore of their decision not to return the Dash 7 to the route until 1988 at a July 26 meeting. Instead, the company will continue to. use the older Convair plane, which the company had earlier told council would be used only on an interim basis while the Dash 7 was used on the coast during the summer months. Ald. Bob MacBain accused Time Air of going back on its promise and said Castlegar is “going backwards very fast” in its level of service. of service. MacBain sajd he was con- cerned over the limitations of the Convair compared to the Dash 7.

DUST SETTLES Moore met with represen- tatives from CP Express and ‘Transport, Labatt’s and Pub- lic Freéightways to discuss claims by residents of the Grosvenor subdivision that large trucks used by the three companies were creat- ing noise, odor and dust problems in the neighbor-, hood. At July's council meeting residents of the area pre- sented council with a petition asking it to do. something about the problems. Moore said investigations by city staff show that most of Labatt’s lot is paved, about half of Public Freightways’ lot is paved and most of CP's lot is unpaved. She said CP's manager, Ron Young, said he under- ‘stood the need for more pavement but said he was having a hard time convinc- ing his company. Moore said all three mana- gers had advised their per- sonnel that trucks were not in poor weather TWILIGHT ZONE A call to Moore from a Castlegar resident who told her that the Canadian Broad- casting Corp. had gone off the air twice during a football game led Moore to call the CBC in Vancouver to find out what was going on. . What she was told, Moore said, was that the CBC mon- itoring facility in Vancouver doesn’t know when the Castlegar area is off the air. Council decided to write a letter to CBC. “expressing our concern over our station going off the air twice” and asking “tat the corporation take some interest in our area.” TENDER ACCEPTED Council accepted a low tender of $8,000 from Chang’s nursery to plant trees around the Community Complex. The only other bid was from Selkirk Tree -Service and was about $3,000 higher HOSPICE CARE to use ther streets. “It was a very co-operative meeting and I felt they're going to make their very best effort to alleviate the prob- lems,” Moore said.

Demeter faces more charges TORONTO (CP) — Peter Demeter, a convicted mur- derer who is appealing two concurrent life sentences for conspiring to murder his cousin, now is accused of plotting with a girlfriend to kill the daughter of a prom- inent Toronto lawyer, police say. Demeter, 52, being held in Toronto's West Detention Centre, and Lisa Ross, 26, pf Toronto were arrested and charged Friday with conspir- acy to commit murder, con- spiracy to kidnap and con- spiracy to commit extortion. Sgt. John Luby of Metro- politan Toronto Police said the lawyer was approached by a man who told her of a plot to kidnap her 16-year-old daughter and extort money from her. The lawyer contacted po- lice and, after consulting with the Crown Attorney's office, able to monitor conversa- tions in which the man and woman outlined the kidnap and extortion plot, he said. Demeter and Ross ap- peared in provincial court Friday and were remanded in custody until Monday. Demeter was convicted last month of trying to hire two men to kidnap and mur- der his distant cousin, Stuart Demeter of Toronto, who was 19 at the time.

Crown ™ appealing case CALGARY (CP) — The Crown filed an appeal Friday against the $5,000 fine im- posed on Jim Keegstra for wilfully promoting hatred against Jews, saying the sentence is not stiff enough. In a brief submission filed in Alberta Court of Appeal, the Crown said the sentence was “manifestly inadequate” considering the nature and circumstances of the offence. The-Crown also said the sentence “does not have the required deterrent effect upon. the respondent or others.” Keegstra’s lawyer, “Jim Christie, appealed both the conviction and the fine in papers filed Wednesday. He cited 32 grounds for appeal, including an argument that the section of the Criminal Code under which Keegstra was convicted violates con- stitutional guarantees of freedom of expression, reli- gion and conscience. Keegstra was convicted July 20 by an Alberta Court of Queen's Bench jury after a 15-week trial in Red Deer. He was charged with wil- fully promoting hatred against an identifiable group, the Jewish people, about a year after being fired from his teaching job at Eckville Junior-Senior High School, 150 kilometres north of Cal- gary. * August 18, 1985 BRIEFLY WINES DOCTORED BONN (REUTER) — The West German Health Ministry's blacklist of wines found doctored with the toxic chemical diethylene glycol has shot up to 1,045, nearly all of them Austrian, the*newspaper Welt am Sonntag said Saturday: It said 1,014 Austrian wines, 884 of them bottled in West German cellars, and 3 West German tages are feared to contain the illegal sweétener, an anti-freeze agent that can damage the brain and kid- heys.

The society also has the support of the Castlegar Hospital's administration. I think it's an excellent idea and I agree with the principle of keeping patients at home,” says Ken Talarico, hospital administrator. “That's where patients can be more comfortable.” Talarico'says the hospital will do what it can to help the society meet the needs of the patients it will serve. “What we're looking at doing is working with them, helping their needs -with regard to equipment and supplies,” he says.

Shark sighted NEW YORK (AP) — An injured shark terrorized bathers at three of this city’s most popular beaches Satur- day morning, thrashing in a frenzy within three metres of shore.

Steven. Hein said. “All they did was get it No one was hurt and the five kilometres of beaches were reopened for swimming two hours later. Two boats and a helicopter failed: to lo- cate the fish. “We're assuming the shark went out to sea,” said coast guard spokesman — Robert Goldring. He noted makos cover great distances quickly, swimming-at speeds of up to 50 kilometres an hour. He said sharks usually stay six to eight kilometres off shore. “They're common —. but not with a gaff in its back,” he said.

Africa clash JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Police said Saturday they killed two black men in clashes and detained 152 opponents of apartheid in one of the largest sweeps since emergency laws were imposed July 21 to try to end nearly a year of black rioting in South Africa. . Police also said fire bombs were heaved at the homes of two members of the mixed-race (colored) chamber of Parliament, which seats mixed-race people, Asians and the ruling whites in segregated chambers but denies represen- tation to the black majority. New curfew laws appeared to be effective in the vast black township of Soweto, near Johannesburg, and in several other black districts. Police reported no incidents during curfew hours from 10 p.m. Friday until 4 a.m. Saturday. The curfew is’ in force until further notice. More than 600 people, nearly all of them black, have perished in anti-apartheid disturbances that began last August. Most victims were killed in confrontations with police, but black mobs killed many other blacks thought to be informers or collaborators with white rule, such as police officers and town councillors. A police spokesman said Saturday officers shot and killed one man after he threw a gasoline bomb at a security vehicle near Worcester, a wine-producing centre about 80 kilometres inland from Cape Town near the Hex River Mountains. A police shotgun Blast killed a second man in a crowd g stones near the farming centre of Bethal, 130 kilometres east of reported. NO IDENTITIES Neither victim was i ii The police who cannot be identified under department rules, said he did not know whether the victims died late Friday or before dawn Saturday.| The 152 people reported detained between day Friday and early Saturday were the most seized in one day since thore than 200 were believed to have been detained July 23, two days after the government gave security forces emergency powers. On Thursday, police said 746 people were being held. The figure was 786 on Friday and jumped by 152 to 938 on Saturday. Police do not elaborate on the data beyond issuing telexed messages giving the number of people being held and, occasionally, the number released since emergency law was imposed. On Saturday, the police said 1,022 had been freed since July 21. The. Detainees’ Parents ‘Support Committee... which works on behalf of detainees and'publicizes their plight, said in a statement Friday it had heard some detainees were being tortured. A spokesman for the national Prisons - Department said the charge was too. vague to investigate. Thursday night, President P.W. Botha gave a policy address that angered many who believed he might make to the black majority to try to halt spiralling violence. Botha instead said he and his ruling National party will keep amending apartheid at their own pace. Apartheid is the legal system of race-separation by which the country’s five million whites rule-over 24 million ~ blacks. Most blacks already have dismissed Botha’s reforms as cosmetic moves. CAN MARRY WHITES " Blacks can marry whites and stay in a few previously whites-only hotels, but they still need government permission to work in. white areas; their education is generally viewed as inferior; they cannot vote, and they must use segregated toilets, trains and buses. Black opponents of apartheid such as Anglican Bishop Desmond Tutu, last year’s. Nobel Peace Prize winner. viewed Botha as showing inflexibility and said this will trigger more bloodshed in South Africa. Apartheid dominates the lives of the blacks anu exercises lesser control over 2.7 million mixed-race people nd 850,000 Asians, most of them descended from Honuerant laborers from India. The. fire’ bomb attacks Friday night caused minor ‘damage to two suburban Cape Town homes. The incidents follow .a pattern of attacks on mixed-race and Asian representatives who serve with whites in the segregated Parliament, and who are often accused of collaborating ‘with white-minority rule. -
