TORONTO (CP) — Every- where in the redesigned of- fice, awesome new machines are beeping, glowing, mur- muring, promising higher levels of productivity. But somehow things are going wrong. The staff is sick more often. Everyone is edgy and irritable, unable to roll with the changes. “The office of the future can kill you,” says Eli Bay, a Toronto associate of the Hans Selye Canadian Institute of Stress in Montreal. “As we move further into the information society, we've got to learn to manage stress on the‘job or all this wonderful technology is just not going to be productive,” says Bay. “Change equals stress and we are confronting change every day. FIGHT OR FLIGHT “The word goes around the office that some new tech- nology, some new systems are to be introduced and im- mediately there’s a classic stress response — fight or flight.” it is prolonged stress that is the killer.

EXERCISE HELPS Dr. Walter Cannon of the Harvard University Medical School says regular exercise is also helpful in combatting stress. The body's responses to job-induced stress — fast- er heartbeat, adrenalin, fas- ter breathing — are the same as those people get in prep- aration for physical activity. Cannon, writing in the, Harvard Business Review, says he believes athletic en- deavors can “burn off” the harmful physiological effects of these responses, Bay, who teaches a course in relaxation response, says if people can turn off the stress mechanism for as little as 20 minutes a day, the body re- covers and replenishes itself. “We have to demobilize the sirens response by turning on 1050 Columbia Avenue CASTLE TIRE: , (1977) Ltd.

Canada is awaiting author- ization from the Argentine government to land a plane in the islands, he said.. Argen- tine troops invaded the is- lands April 2 and British forces now are headed there in an attempt to reclaim them. The Canadians have been exchanging messages with their relatives in Canada saying they want to leave the islands, he said. “A chartered flight is one of the possibilities being con- sidered’ to bring the Cana- dians home.” But it is unlikely a plane would be sent from Canada. “It would be a: lot- easier and wiser r 0 charter a plane and to. set educational policy :__.. for their own “districts, school — board George , “Anutooshkin. said, “The board would be defin- itely against the establish- ment of a county system in . this area unless it can be shown that School District No. 9 (Castlegar) could be run more efficiently and Former prime minister arrested” ANKARA (AP), — prime minister Bulent Ecevit Former « after serving a two-month term for breaking a ban’on was, arrested day by the ‘military government for writing an-article “injuring Turkey's reputation” abroad, his lawyer said.

If people are leaving in the thousands, then there might not be room for the Canadians to get out quickly. ‘on commercial. flights.” A chartered flight would ‘solve that problem, he said. * If‘the commercial flights are operating and aren't too congested, it is likely the Canadians will be taking thers instead, he said. “Cutbacks explained by health minister By CasNews Staif Provincial health minister receive “fair treatment” un- der the county system. “Nor are we convinced that educational services to chil- dren would be run more ef- ficiently and thus save tax- payers money,” he added. He said that in Alberta, where the county system was adopted several years ago, some education programs were terminated. | “It is also noted that the cost for educating a pupil is much lower where school boards still exist. For ex- ample, the educational cost per pupil is must lower in “B.C. than it is in Alberta,” he said. Jim Nielsen said, “dramatic increases” in costs and es- calating demand for services are to blame for the recent ‘utback in the” i our approved budget and this has necessitated reviewing homemaker services to exist- ing clients to ensure that these services are being de- livered at appropriate Jevels without j he home care program. In a recent letter to Castlegar council, Nielsen said, “In recognition of these factors, Treasury Board ‘ap-, proved a substantial increase .- in the Long-Term Care Home Support budget for 1981-82 but the increase was re- quired to meet increased wage and salary costs of homemakers.” Nielsen added, “We are required to operate within health needs of tralvttoala He was replying to an ear- lier letter from council crit- icizing the province for its cuts in the homemaker ser- vice program. Ald. Len Embree respon- ded, “It's one of those things Tread three times and still didn’t understand what the minister said.” Ald. Albert Calderbank added, “The facts are they're not going to do anything about it.” ‘students have hearts the size of pins’ — ‘at least that’s how Jackie Yocom’ feels. Yocom, inspector for the local Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to ‘Ani- .mals, made the. comment after a severely starved cat was found at the college this week. She called the cat “the worst cruelty case I've bumped into. since I've been with the SPCA (since * July)” The cat had. apparently been at the college for about two weeks and was completely ‘ignored until Monday when a nursing instructor finally notified the SPCA. Yocom went to the col- lege three times, but was unable to locate the cat. So a trap was set and the cat finally walked into the trap. Yocum noted: ‘that college security personnel were very cooperative throughout. ai 14 She said the cat — named Samson — was in a state of extreme starva- tion. In faet, the cat was so starved that it still hurts when touched, she said. “He eats like he is never going to get food again,” she said. She is amazed that only one call was received out of all the people attending and work- ing at the college. “All he wanted was a hug and. food,” she said. BIG JOKE Yocom said she spoke with several people at the college who admitted hav- ing seen the cat getting skinnier, every day. “Everyone I talked to knew about this cat," she said. “They think it’s a joke. I don’t think.he would have .. lasted another day.” “In my opinion, they are all guilty of cruelty. I don't want to understand that.” But she said the college itself can't be blamed for this — it's the people. “I would think one per- son would have brought food, with all that distance , from any residence around there. He found people and they ignored him.” “We are’ not concerned about_a ‘cat. out starving, “We are not concerned about a cat straying, but if | it’s injured or starving we . are right there,” she said. CRUELTY INCREASE - ‘Yoctim said in the: last two weeks she hag seen an “jneredible" number: of cases of cruelty to animals. For example, .Thursday morning she picked up a litter of eight-week-old puppies abandoned at Safe- way. { About two weeks ago, someone dumped a grey poodle-terrior cross with one pup on the Celgar Road. She said the mother was hit by a car and the pup was found curled up next to the dead mother's body in the freezing cold. “I think it is important that people know what happens to their animals when ahey abandon them” she Many ‘animals die daily in a losing battle against human apathy toward ani- mal overpopulation. Ani- mal welfare agencies strive to control the excess cats and dogs but are thwarted by the extreme number of. strays, she noted. The irresponsible pet owner is a major contribu- tor to the pet Small hearts found at Sel “By cueRvL WisHLOW g parents tend to use the “ Selkirk College staff and, s family pet to teach. their. children the “miracle of birth,” but what they fail to realize is the miracle of death is also a fact and a homeless puppy or kitten may face a short, unmir- aculous life. Many owners also iden-' tify so closely with their pets that the prospect of controlling the animal's is bl problem, she said. The problem is so acute that the SPCA’s time and money is drained from the original purpose of the organization and used for euthanasian, instead of for prevention of cruelty, re- lief from suffering and educating and promoting the humane ethic. Not all dogs and cats can be saved, despite the good intentions of the animal shelters, Yocum said. Spaying and neutering is the solution. But many owners do not do their part. She said misinformed to them. The belief that neutering makes a pet fat and lazy is false, Yocom pointed out. Neutering does not build fat cells. Obesity is a diet problem and a responsib- ility of an owner. Neuter- ing can be related to ob- esity, but the problem is one of exercise... Everyone must be aware- of the need for responsible pet owners, she added. She said people can help by spaying and neutering their dogs and cats and by promoting public aware- ness programs to make pet owners more responsible, ‘irk College SAMSON . . found ina state of extreme starvation.
