Mountaintop Summer Home
For Shizu Futa a Fire Watcher

Shizu Futa is ‘a special
person. Not because she's a she,
but because she Is happy doing
her job.

Shizu Is a lookoutman (or
should we say lookoutperson
for the women’s libbers), one of
five’ women in B.C, who
“manned” the lonely mountain-
top lookouts, watching for
forest fires,

Once this used
strictly a male domain,

It takes a special person to
adjust to these lonely jobs and
Shizu performed well on her
East Kootenay perch.

Loneliness isn't a problem
according to Shizu. She says
the hardest thing it takes a girl
to adjust to is having to live
without running water. There
are no major problems she
says, but she is still a little
apprehensive about the. dark,
“particularly when it's a fairly
long walk to the little house
with the tin roof.”

British Columbia Human Rights
Council Seeks Support of People

British: Columbia Human
Rights Council seeks in achiev-
ing a Bill of Rights and an
Ombudsman for the Province of
British Columbia by urging
citizens to write to their MLA
or any member of the cabinet.

The council feels the
government of British Colum-
bia should mark the occasion of
the 25th Anniversary of the
Universal Declaration of Hu-
man Rights by giving the
people of British Columbia two
things: a Bill of Rights,
incorporating all of the prin-
ciples of the Declaration of
Human Rights in the laws of
the province, and an Ombuds-
man to ensure that these rights
are being respected by all, but
particularly by officials in
public and private agencies,

In March, 1970, the B.C. .

Human Rights Council released
the proceedings of its confer-
ence on the Ombudsman
entitled, “Let Justice be Seen

than ever before, there is
critical need for a Bill of Rights
in the province and for the
appointment of an Ombudsman,

+ important changes .and. addi-

This. was announced by

ers in British Columbia, Tho-
mas J. Stevens, who said that
the revisions, which are in line

The “alternates”, now cate-
gorized with fish, meat and
poultry on the program, are
dried beans, dried lentils and
dried peas—including - black-
eyed or cowpeas, chick or
garbanza peas and split peas.

* The food values found in these
foods are acceptable as alter-
nates for those found in many
meats.

A particularly welcome
addition to the eating program
is soybeans. These relatively
inexpensive beans, like meats,
are high in nutritional content.

Notable among the addi-
tions to the eating program are
ham and pork, both of which
have been included on the
program for the first time.

Ham is the only smoked or
cured meat on the program;
pork has been included because
it is now available as a: much
leaner meat than could be had
before.

So-called pork “products”
are still “illegal”, however, in
that they are not 100 per cent
pork.

In some food markets, the
label will read “lean pork”. In
the preparation of the pork, all
‘visible fat should be removed.
