He grew up in Poland and came to Canada in 1947 and settled at Morden, Manitoba. In Manitoba and Ontario he worked as a logging con tractor owning and operating his own logging trucks. In 1958 he moved to Castlegar and began working on the: construction of the pulp mill. In 1960 he began working for School District No. 9 as a school custodian retiring in 1974 due to illness. He married Shiela Fulton Jan. 14, 1961 in Nanaimo. Mr. Klapper loved hunting, fish. ing, woodwork and just re. cently took up oil painting. He is survived by his wife, Sheila; son Terrance and daughter Teresa Ambrosone both of C. dchil ‘Change urged SASKATOON (CP) — Saskatchewan government has to change its attitude to- ward the jailing of women, says a spokesman for the group Women In Conflict With the Law. “All you have to do is look T at the rate of female ook NE Te offenders to see the system NON isn't working,” Bev Tilford said in an interview Thurs- day. “The government has to realize there needs to be re- habilitation for women and not just punishment.” Dick |, director of in- stitutional operations wiht the Justice Department, said a study a few years ago in- dicated the tate of repeat of- fenders, both male and fe- male, was roughly 45 per cent. He said current rates are probably about the same. Tilford said a communit; training centre offering vo- cational and educational pro- grams for women is needed. She said Pine Grove in Prince Albert is the only jail in the province for women. But men have three provin- cial jails, two community correctional centres, five community training residen- ces and several camp facil- ities. That means men have far greater access to rehab- ilitation programs than women. Terry Thompson, execu- tive director of corrections with the Justice Department, disagree. “We're probably doing bet- ter in Prince Albert than in some of the men’s institu- tions.” Thompson said a program which allows prisoners to spend time in the community while they are serving their Rocky View Tax & Bookkeeping Service Small Bu Personal *.Farm-Logging & Contractors No. 06-1545 Columbia Avenue Castleger, B.C.

Tilford said it isn’t a ques: tion of numbers. “It's true there aren't nearly as many female of- fenders as male offenders. But more women should not have to commit crimes to get more facilities.” Tilford said her organi- zation hopes to present its concerns to Justice Minister Bob Andrew sometime this month. Trip ends for stowaway VANCOUVER (CP) — A stowaway on a barge from Hawaii to North Vancouver is recovering today from its journey across the Pacific Ocean. An albatross, the fabled bird of sea legends, arrived in dock Thursday after appar ently being trapped on a ship from the tropical islands. The bird, with its 3’ metre wingspan, failed his dren Benjamin and Kathe ine; and sister Lena in Rus. sia By request of the late Mr. Klapper, there will be no funeral service and crema tion has taken place. Cremation arrangements were under the direction of the Castlegar Funeral Chapel repeated p to fly away from the North Van couver Shipyards because of a lack of updrafts off the water.

He did well at Rio Grande and enjoyed his time there. He was also on a scholarship which made it all possible.

An exhibition of 52 color pi led “LU itiar Fauna of the Open Sea” will open Friday, April 3 and continue until April 26., Unfamiliar Fauna of the Open ‘Sea features underwater photographs taken by marine biologists using special scuba diving and photography techniques. The extremely delicate nature of these translucent animals has made it difficult to study them in the past. Several of the species shown in the exhibition have never been photographed before. Planktonic organisms range in size from half an inch to the size of a human. These include pteropods, salps, siphonophore, medusa and comb-jellies. Neuston, plank- tonic creatures that drift on the surface of the water, are also featured in the exhibition. The exhibit captures the diversity and beauty of open-ocean animals, giving us a glimpse of an alien and exotic underwater world. Images in the exhibition were chosen for both their aesthetic value and their scientific significance. It has been crganized by Jonathoan Trent of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, California, and is being circulated nationally by the Smithsonian Institution Travelling Exhibition Service (SITES). TOBACCO INDUSTRY Image costs millions TORONTO (CP) — The Canadian tobacco industry spends $80 million a year creating a glamorous image of handsome, virile men carving smooth turns on ski trails. Also featured are attractive, liberated young women lighting up on one of every four billboards and in eye-catching posters and full-page newspaper ads. Banning these ads and the image they foster has become a major aim of health and anti-smoking groups trying to spread the message that smoking is us, kills 33,000 Canadians a year and costs an estimated $4 billion a year in health care costs. Go Transit, operated by the Ontario government and serving thousands of commuters who stream into Toronto from outlying suburbs, announced in March that it’s banning tobacco ads from its trains, buses and stations. Several newspapers — the Toronto Star, Toronto Globe and Mail, Kingston Whig Standard and Brockville Recorder and Times — have dropped tobacco advertising Until now, the federal government has left the tobacco industry to regulate itself, including its advertising ahd promotions policy TAKES ACTION Health Minister Jake Epp, who has been promising to curtail the industry since last fall, is expected to make an announcement shortly that his office says will touch “almost everything” in the $5-billion-a-year tobacco business. At the centre of the issue is a heated argument over what role advertising plays in the lives of Canada’s seven million smokers. The industry insists cigarettes advertising isn’t intended to recruit new smokers but to persuade smokers to switch brands, as companies fight for shares of a declining market “The main hypocrisy we are concerned about is that non-smoking groups simply ignore all the facts about advertising,” says John Koss, president of the Association of Canadian Advertisers. “They deal with it as if it were 50 years ago when advertising was used to promote and bring new customers into the fold.” The industry also argues that any attempt to ban advertising violates the constitutional right to free commercial speech. The industry’s main argument focuses on data from countries where advertising is prohibited. In Finland, Iceland, Poland, Italy, East Germany and the Soviet Union smoking has increased since bans were imposed. Yet in countries such as Canada, Britain and the United States where ads are banned on radio and television, smoking has declined. LOSES SALES In Canada, sales peaked at 66.3 billion cigarettes in 1982 and have been declining since Canada is ranked seventh in the world in per-capita cigarette consumption. “Good education and good counter-proposals would be much more effective from our perspective,” Koss suggests, as an alternative to an advertising ban. It's hard to demonstrate a link between smoking and advertising, says Neil Collishaw of the federal Health Department's tobacco section. “But I don't think the argument we should allow ads because they don't change consumption is a compelling one. Richard Lauzon, head of the Canada Council on Smoking and Health, believes there's a link between smoking and advertising “It’s ludicrous to think otherwise,” he says. “The only people who don’t think there's a connection is the industry itself. There are no laws covering tobacco, its production, sale or promotion by Canada’s four tobacco companies — Benson and Hedges, Imperial Tobacco, Macdonald Tobacco and Rothmans of Pall Mall Canada. They voluntarily agreed to stop advertising on television and radio in 1972 when faced with legislation that would have banned all tobacco advertising. Teenage marriage arranged KELOWNA (CP) — Seventy years ago, Anton Schmidt paid $5 for a heavy gold wedding band from ari Eaton's store for his bride, Christina Welder. They were married in a manse in Ogema, Sask., Jan. 29, 1917. She was 15 and he had just turned 20. After the ceremony, they took the train back to Amulet, the next village, then went to the Schmidt farm in an open sleigh. It was so cold the bride, still in her wedding dregy froze her face. The bridegroom froze his ears. Today the wedding band is worn thin because it's never been taken off, “not even when we were doing tomatoes in the canner: It sounds so romantic, a teenage marriage that lasted seven decades. But the bride wants to set the record straight. It was an arranged marriage. “My father and Tony's father thought it was best for both of us,” says Mrs. Schmidt. “We never dated, never went out together before our wedding.” She was the fourth of six children. Her mother died when she was nine years old, and by the time she was 14, she and a girlfriend found jobs as chambermaids in a hotel north of Moose Jaw, Sask. ORDERED HOME dave’ Okanagan Lake by boat to Kelowna. “Tony worked at whatever he could — clearing bush, building flumes, planting trees, in the cannery,” says Mrs. Schmidt. She worked in canneries and packing- houses. For almost 20 years, he worked for Kelowna Steam Laundry, leaving home at 5 a.m. to pick up laundry at the hospital by wagon. His fingers are crooked today from years of pushing the heavy canvas cover over wet laundry in the extractor. They had three children — a son John who died in 1985, and two daughters, Clara Wagner in California and Leona Fink in Seattle. They also have seven , six great hildren and one great great grandchild. Last year, they took their first plane ride to attend their daughter Clara’s 50th wedding anniversary in California. They now share a room in a private hospital. Their memories are sharp and clear as they share a private joke between them — the rocky, reluctant beginning to their marriage. Perhaps worried about his teenage working away from home, her father wrote to her, ordering her home. Mr. ‘Schmidt, the eldest of seven sons and one daughter, was spared from conscription in the First World War to work on his father's large farm. In spite of its rocky beginning, says Mrs. Schmidt, the marriage has worked well. “He's a good guy and a hard worker.” The first year, they rented a farm on a crop-share basis, but were hailed out. “Those were hard times on the Prairies. No one had any money,” she said. In 1921, Mr. Schmidt came to Kelowna to look for work and his wife followed in 1922. Before he left, they had their picture taken in the Moose Jaw train station. Because no pictures were taken at their wedding, it was the first photo of the two of them together. Both travelled by train to Vernon, then down Repairs continue on chapel house Restoration and fire damage repairs continue to move forward at the Zuck erberg Island Heritage Park chapel house.
