These students are mature, disciplined and thoroughly con- vineed of their need for a college, education. On the other hand, some of my. poorest students have been those who were there only. because “I knew I'd get hassled by my parents.if,! didn't go.” By Bruce Levett Oh, no! Not the old “water-cooler” argument again, surely? A firm of management consultants charges that Canadian. workers are bilk- ing the boss to the tune of $11 billion a year by wast- ing company time. Much of this amount is going down the drain in the vicinity of the water- cooler, they contend. There is juat too much clustering about going on there. OK. We have made this film to discover just WHO is doing the clustering and WHY they are doing it. Hit the lights. First man in is Smith- wick. He's taking an as- pirin. Poor chap suffers from tension-induced mi- grain, . Next on the scene is Jones, his supervisor, plunging in to make certain Smithwick doesn't linger.

He's floor super- intendent. Good man, but a bit paranoid. Just has to gave that leap is Helen, the executive secretary. She spends a great deal of time near the fountain, Only place she is certain of locating Jones, “Brown, Green, et al, to get the cheques signed. We calculate that, in just the time it has taken to view this little film, all this inactivity has cost the firm, $1,256.27. . (Oh, yes, there's Smith- wick again — over in the corner — answering the telephone, He'd probably still be at the cooler were it not for our policy discour- aging fraternization.) Very well, then. What are we going to do about all this? Take out the cooler? No — how would Helen ever get the cheques signed? Fire Smithwick? After all, he started the whole answer the telephones? Seize Smithwick's bottle of 222s? He'd only smuggle in another one. No, our only alternative seems to be to promote Smithwick. If we make him an executive it will relieve his tension, do away with the headaches and end his daily trip to the spigot. This means, of course, that we'll have to replace him in his present job — capital idea, - We could put Smithwick to watching the new man.

(CP) — Only Susan Owen's family knew she was walking around with a balloon inside her stomach during the win- ter, but her case may soon be famous as the first of its kind because of the unusual weight-loss treatment she underwent, Earlier this week, Windsor surgeon Dr. Walter Percival told a seminar on obesity he helped a woman lese 37.2 kilograms (82 pounds} in 30 weeks by blowing up a, bal- loon inside her stomach. - Hunter safety lauded Released by of Environment It .is time the hunter be In Percival's office last Sept. 18, Owen — who then weighed 197 kilograms (287 pounds) — swallowed an or- dinary dime-store baloon at- tached to a very thin tube. Air and water were pumped into the tube to blow up the balloon and the end of the tube was plugged and taped to her cheek. Owen said she ate normal food but after eating only a smali amount, she felt full and couldn't eat anymore, The full feeling lasted for as long as if she had eaten a big meal. She drank large amounts of water after eating so the food wouldn't sit on top of the balloon. She said she felt no discomfort except that would stare at the hout B.C. by sportsmen, instructors .in clubs and schools and em- ized the proper handling for increasingly successful in- dividual efforts to make hunting a safer form of out- door recreation. * This is not meant to ignore what organizations like the B.C. Wildlife ion and and working knowledge of firearms. By the late 603, the Fish and Wildlife Branch developed the Hunter Safety ‘Training program also taught by volunteers who had sim- other groups have done and are doing toward this end, but to give credit to the in- dividuals who hunt, whether they are part of an organize group or not. As with many. ather things, it is ultimately the individual and his action . o! that makes the difference. In the 60s there were too many hunting accidents. Firearm accidents averaged over 28 a year and, of these, eight a year were fatalities. Out of a concern to make hunting safer and more en- joyable, the B.C. Wildlife Federation developed the Junior Firearms Safety course. "It was presented widely ilar obj - Many firearms/hunting ac- cidents occurred because people were careless or ig- norant about handling fire- arms,,particularly under the varying ' circumstances of ‘hupting and travelling. Most ie, accidents happened ith young hunters, The training program and hunt- ers themselves tried to change this. By 1974 the two early training courses gave way to the Conservation and Out- -door Recreation Education (CORE) course. Like the - others, CORE is based upon firearms safety but is broad- er in scope containing sec- tions on regulations, ethics and thei of birds and animals. This course was legislated as being mandatory before anyone 14 years old or over could obtain their first hunt- ing licence. CORE has reached over 60,000 stu- dents, has won two inter- national awards and is sup- ported throughout B.C. by the efforts of over 1,000 sportsmen instructors. - ‘The efforts of hunters and the effects of safety courses they have promoted over the years are best evaluated by results and the results show | that hunters have been prac- tising what the learned. Since the first safety courses began, the incidents of mistaken identity acci- dents where a hunter con- fuses another with a game animal have been reduced by ube.

The second balloon lasted until March 7 when it disin- tegrated ‘and was pulled out. Since then Owen - hasn't needed another balloon be- cause she has continued to eat small amounts and has continued to lose about 1.96 kilograms a week, At five-foot-seven and now weighing about 95 kilograms (210 pounds) she’s still not slim ‘but feels “so much better about myself.” She plans to keep losing weight. Mother of three young sons, Owen was afraid her weight would mean an early death from heart dis- ease or stroke. : “Td like to stick around for a while longer.” Aid should be coupled with warning. OTTAWA (CP) —: The government should couple aid to starving Ethiopian ref- ugees with a warning to the Ethiopian government to “stop war on “helpless civi- Hans" in the African country, says former external affairs’ minister Flora MacDonald. MacDonald said at a Com- mons external affairs com- mittee meeting Tuesday that today emergency food sup- plies should flow through international agencies to make sure they reach the people who need them, E Allan Gotlieb, assistant undersecretary of state for external affairs, said the government hasn't decided how it will send $16 million in food to Ethiopia, Somalia, ‘Uganda and the Sudan. The government last week promised $22.4 million in ref- ugee aid for Africa, $16 million of it for food. Ethiopia ‘ and Somalia are each to get $5 million, Sudan $4 million and Uganda $2 million. - That's part of a $500-mil- lon program pledged by sev- eral donors at a conference in Geneva last week.
