HYDRO PROPOSAL . . « etasat eon sites on the lake, upset Cs who are supplied with water from the lake. - Ward questioned B.C. Hy- dro’s commitment io provide former waterfront lot owners who lost their property in the Arrow Valley with new prop- erty. The commitment should be closely scrutinized, he main- tains, adding it is vague, and that hundreds of people were bought out, and hundreds of people could be eligible under the terms of the commit- ment. Asked if the present re- settlement program is a compromise between the commitment and the demand for public recreational land, Ward said a compromise is possible but the number of lots to be created as part of the program.would have .to. . be cut down, before a com- promise was reached. Nesta Hale, secretary of the residents’ committee, dis- agreed with Ward's points. B.C. Hydro has given up more than 1,000 acres of land and 11 miles of waterfront along the lake for public use, and it now is proposing to turn over 150 acres of land and two miles of waterfront to former residents, she said. The provincial government owns 30 to 40 of the best POSTAL DEADLOCK continued from Al gaining table Wednesday night and again this mron- ing. The refusal followed an unsuccessful mediation attempt by Maurice Can- tin, acting chairman of the Public Service Staff Re- lations Board. brings chuckles OTTAWA (CP) — Post- master-General Andre Quel- let joked about the postal strike Wednesday while in- troducing a special set of stamps for the country's 114th birthday. The crowd of 10,000 on Parliament Hill love dit. “On behalf of all the users of Canada Post,” Ouellet began, and many in the ckled. ister smiled and . ie mil continued “On behalf of our employeet: at work, holiday- . . striking.” The crowd The stamps depict the. his- tory of Canada from 1867 to the present, with maps show- ing provincial boundaries in 1867, 1873 and 1949. and public access to the lake has been increased since the Hugh Keenleyside Dam was built, she continued. Hale said the area prop- osed to be set aside for former residents is quite small when compared to the area set aside for public use. A requirement to provide public access to the lake at Deer Park will be one of the conditions Hydro will have to meet in order to get approval to subdivide the land, she said. She added, the company still has the option to release the land for sale in its present state, by which it would avoid local input. Rezonings and subdivisions would not be needed if that was done. wae residents’ committee has pushed for more access, * Wetter roads and more parks, she said. She dismissed the argu- ments about higher taxes, saying most of the people want land for summer homes, and they would be paying taxes twice — once on their permanent home, and once on their cottage. The residents are only one of the groups who have lobbied for improvements to the Deer Park road, she said, adding others include the Cantin met government and union negotiators sep- arately on two occasions Tuesday nigth and said today in an interview that “the position of both par- ties remains exactly the same.” HAS NO HOPE “Icame to the conclusion that it is quite clear there is no possibility whatso- ever of getting the parties back to the negotiating ta- bie,” Cantin said. Cantin said the govern- ment steadfastly refuses to accept the recommenda- tions of conciliation com- missioner Pierre Jasmine and the union “is making demands over and above what is recommended by Jasmine.” The government and union must return to Can- | tin if they decide they need a mediator. The govern- ment can also leave the postal workers on the pic- ket lines hoping they will force,their union to com- promise, accede to union demands and resume talks “or consider back-to-work- legislation, Cantin said.

Natives share land problems, KAMLOOPS (CP) — Many aboriginal land problems faced by Canadian native In- dians also confront native people in the U.S. a Ha- waiian representative to the fifth annual United Native Nations conference said Wed- nesday. “we have suffered the same fraud and deceit i in land deals,” said dians,” Prejean said. He said in Hawaii, natives are concerned with land management and also “the strong military presence.” There are more than 3,000 nuclear warheads in Hawaii, Prejean added. “We propose the military findappropriatenuclearwaste disposal systems and not je i for the Pre- jean, of oa ute Hawaii Aloha.

Prejean also said the mi- gration of Canadians and other Americans to the Hawaiian islands is removing jobs from natives and “push- ing up prices, making it dif- ficult for natives living there.” Carriers cross picket lines WINNIPEG (CP) — Strik- ing inside postal workers in Winnipeg are upset . with members of the Letter Car- riers Union of Canada ‘be- cause they are crossing pic- ket lines, a spokesmaf for the Canadian Union of Postal Workers said Wednesday. Pat Miller said letter car- riers and couriers are cross- ing picket lines set up by the striking inside workers des- pite statements by the na- tional president of the letter carriers union that picket lines would be honored. “TI guess it’s like the jelly- fish and the shark,” Miller said. “One has a spine and the other hasn't. I think it shows they aren't much as trade unionists.” Miller said Bob McGarry, national president of the let- ter carriers union, and local president Don Harrison had promised that workers would honor the picket line.

CALL GREG FOR VIEWING APPOINTMENT Cushing's disease LOS ANGELES (AP) — tors report “very positive results” in eentiags arare but devastating disease in chil- dren with delicate microsur- gery that burrows to the base of the brain to remove tiny tumors, “From these very positive results, we have concluded this procedure is the best method for treating young patients with Cushing’s dis- ease,” if an experienced ne- urosurgeon is available, said Dr. Dennis Styne of the Uni- versity of California-San Francisco, Cushing’s disease usually is associated with a tumor on the pituitary, a master gland that produces and controls hormones. Such turmors rarely are malignant. “We had patients who hadn't grown in five or six years, and if it's (gone on) that long then that growth is lost,” leaving the child per- manently stunted, he said. “It can change your mental state, too. Two of our pati- ents were quite depressed.” The university team used the procedure on about 70 Serious drinking all for science TORONTO (CP) In the name of science, eight men got together in a laboratory to do some serious drinking. Each of them drank more than half a bottle of liquor a day for 10 days and demon- strated what pub-crawlers know from experiece — the human body can learn to tol- erate alcohcl. “We really know very little about ‘alcohol affects the social drinker and how people pegulre. a tolerance to it,” team at the Addiction Re- search Foundation. “Most experiments have been done on chronic alco- holivs who have developed a dependence.” “We kept the amount of alcohol small because we didn’t want to risk develop- inga dependence,” Zilm said of the who were days of drinking, the sub- jects’ ability to memorize lists of words was impaired by about 40 per cent immedi- ately after the first drink but gradually improved by the end of the day, even though the blood-alcohol level re- mained high. At the end of 10 days, average memory impairment caused by the first drink was down to 20 per cent. “If we had continued for three weeks, we postulated there would be almost no memory loss,” said Zilm. Another response affected by alcohol is. the body's physical reaction to bursts of sounds in the ear. ers found the volunteers were more sensitive to sound the day after drinking. Surprisingly, the other ef- fects of intoxication didn't produce changes that varied warned of the risk. REACTIONS MONITORED The volunteers were tested before and after drink- ing to measure what was happening to their bodies. “The subjects agreed that if you want to turn people off of alcohol, this is the best way to do it,” said Zilm, whc now works at Kelowna Gen- eral Hospital i Kelowna. Previous studies sug- gested drinkers adapt to the effects of alcohol more quick- ly if the level of alcohol in the bood is kept high over a long the men consuming . about eight ounces of alcohol with orange juice within 20 min- utes.

No tumor was found in the eighth child, for whom other treatment was re- quired. Styne said such tv- mors are often too small to be spotted in X-rays. Styne said the surgeon begins by opening an incision through the eume, beneath the upper lip. He then drills through the sinus cavities and opens a tunnel to the pituitary gland, a pea-sized organ tucked beneath the front of the brain. Looking through a the Although skin and muscle, including the lip and nose, are pushed out of the way drung the surgery, he said, ther eis not disfigurement — “just a little suture line under the lip.” “It's really a straight shot (to the pituitary), and we don't interfere with any vital organs.

Nabbed for not paying fine VANCOUVER (CP) — Neil Macrae admits he didn't pay a few parking tickets, but he doesn’t think that means city police should roust him out of bed at midnight and put him in jail for four hours. “There I am sound asleep and the next thing I know there’s two cops standing over me,” he said Monday. “Then I'm hustled out to this paddywagon and end up in the drunk tank with every degenerate in the city asleep at my feet.” Macrae said he was not allowed a telephone call, was not formally charged, and was not allowed the use of a lavatory, while being held by Vancouver police from about midnight until 4 a.m. last, Thursday. He said he has read war- rants and said there ‘were about 18 offences listed on a summons he received. “I fully admit I broke the law — I didn’t pay some parking tickets — but I don’t CRovymobile trial CHICAGO (AP) — A. fed- eral jury ruled Saturday that General Motors Corp. must pay $550 each to more than 10,000 purchasers of 1977 Oldsmobiles whose cars con- tained Chevrolet engines. But in a split verdict, the jury also said the automaker did not owe damages to at least 30,000 customers who bought the cars, dubbed Chevymobiles, after Anril 10. 1977, “We possibly will appeal,” said Charles Boyle, a lawyer for the car buyers in the i0-week trial that sought, $131 million in damages from "The case involved 50,000 TAKS: SE eee Furniture Village purchasers of 1977 Oldsmo- bile Delta 88s, Omegas and Custom Cruiser station wa- gons. that were equipped with Chevrolet 350-cubic inch engines instead of the Olds- mobile Rocket 350-cubic inch engines.

Two men in the cell had just beaten a bus driver, he said. They asked him what he was “in for” and when told, _ burst out laughing. Sgt. Al Brown, who re- leased Macrae, explained- that he was not held in the drunk tank, but in a “holding cage” in which there may have been a few drunks. Because the jail was ticularly busy that night, oy Macrae may have been held “a little longer” than normal, Brown added. He said he apologized to _| Macrae for being held so long and allowed him to choose his date to appear in court. Brown could not comment — on the propriety of Macrae being taken from bed,‘ to Say it may ‘have been less embarrassing for him than to be taken from his workplace. As for the lack of phone~ calls, Brown said Macrae was to be released in any case and had no need to phone. Staff Sgt.
