No mention of the
boycott in Chiha

By HAL BOCK
LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Boycott? What boycott?
The absence of those coun-
tries that chose to stay home
seems permanently anchored

benignly
as he listened’ to the trans
lation of a reporter's ques-
tion.

“In China, we never men-
tion boycott,” Lu said. “We
just say the Soviet Union and
some other countries are not
taking part.”

That seems a fair descrip-
tion of the situation. So much
for the boyeatt controversy.
Next question?

‘The Chinese'simply choose
£0 treat the missing countries
and their athletes rather
matter-of-factly. It is not a
subject for contention with
them and it is not a problem
for them. You wish to come
to the games? Then come.
You wish to stay home? Then
stay home.

‘That may be because, for »

long time, China did not ap-
pear in this quadrennial ga-
thering of the world’s top
athletes. The last time the
Chinese participated at the
Summer Games was in 1962.
Political issues involving the
recognition of Taiwan and
the International Olympic
Committee's two-China pol-
icy have kept the mainland’s
delegation away since then.

This time, however, in the
year of the Soviet boycott —
and, in fact, perhaps because
of the Soviet boycott — the
Chinese have returned to the
games. Their decision to par-
ticipate was announced offi-
cially four days after the
Soviets said they would not
be here. It is hard to believe
that was a mere coincidence.

“We are here because the
world’s best athletes are here
and competing together,” Lu
said. “This is an opportunity
for the world's best athletes
to meet and learn from each
other.”

So, the games will provide
a rare peek behind the Bam-
boo Curtain and a chance to
see athletes such as Zhu Ji-
anhua, the world record high
jumper, and Wu. Shude, a
world weightlifting record
holder.

The last time the
were held in Los Angeles, in
1982, China won nothing. One
lonely sprinter named Liu
Changchun participated, fin-
ishing fifth in his heat of the
100-metre sprint.

Lu said his delegation had
seen nothing of the problems
with security and arrange-
ments the Soviets cited for
staying home.

By SUSAN CARLISLE, Neturalist

The evening sun casts a final glow across the
mountain valley. Suddenly, all goes silent as a large, dark
shape looms across the sky. A pair of huge, round eyes
a flash of dagger-sharp talons . . . a brief agonized
squeal. Yet another mouse has been swept away by the
Great Horned Owl.
The Great Horned Owl weighs about 1'/ kilograms
(24 pounds) and is about 50 centimetres (20 inches) tall.
It is a powerful bird, to be treated with respect by mice
and men alike. A rustling movement is not missed by the
sensitive ears and eyes of the hunting owl. On silent
wings (silent because of special fringed feathers) the ow!
swoops upon its victims unawares.
The victim may be a mouse, duck, hare, porcupine or
even a skunk! Anyone who has ventured too close to a
Great Horned Owl nest will sympathize with smaller
creatures: the feel of powerful, sharp talons gripping the
scalp is a most painful experience.
Great Horned Owls fearlessly defend their young
(hatched in April-May) and hunt day and night to feed
them. Although they are excellent parents, these owls
are terrible housekeepers. They take over nests aban.
doned by eagles, crows, hawks and squirrels bft never
make any repairs. Consequently, Great Horned Ow! nests
are often destroyed by storms.
The Great Horned Owl is just one of 15 kinds of owls
found in Canada’s Mountain Region. To man, owls are a
great help as predators of mice and other nuisance
animals. Discover more about these fascinating birds of
prey: come to the owl program “On Silent Wings.”

The show is held every Saturday night in July and
August at Summit Creek Campground (9 km west of
Creston on Hwy. 3). It’s guaranteed to entertain, especi.
ally with a visit to “The Hootery” owl cafe for some ow!
gourmet delights.

For more information on the wildlife programs this
summer, call or write Creston Valley Wildlife Interpreta-
tion Centre, Box 1849, Creston, B.C. VOB 1G0; telephone
428-9888. It is all free and sponsored by the Canadian
Wildlife Service.

Some Progressive Conserva
tives in Alberta will soon
change sides and work for
Liberal candidates in the
Sept. 4 federal election cam-
paign, says Fred Arnold, a
former Tory now working for
Liberal Mike MacDonald in
Edmonton West.

A move to the other side
has already happened in Cal-
gary East, where Liberal
candidate Rod Sykes scored
an unopposed victory Sunday
with the declared support of
key members of the riding’s
Progressive Conservative
association.

Ten of 35 members of the
Conservative riding associ
ation's executive, along with
six rank-and-file members
and the constituency office
secretary, quit the organi-
zation Saturday and an
nounced their support for
Sykes at a news conference.
Many of the defectors were
present at the Liberal nom
ination meeting

They said they quit the
party because they were an
gry with the way national
Conservative’ party officials
handled allegations of ballot
box stuffing at a May 24
nomination meeting won by
Alex Kindy

Arnold, a financial consul
tant who helped organize a
bid for the Conservative
party leadership by Edmon
ton businessman Peter Pock
lington, said the Conserva
tives “seem to think Alber
tans are non-thinking and

non-intellectual at the polling

stations.”

“They're concentrating on
Quebec. Meanwhile, John
Turner is committed to the

West.”
