CASTLEGAR NEWS, December 17, 1980 JOHN CHARTERS’ Reflections & Recollections If you are hearing a low hum these days and it doesn't have Christmas carols in the background, and if it is too cold for the bees to be doing anything ’but huddle in their hives, it could be a different kind of swarming — Grad class swarming, and this one should be a humdinger. The Graduation Classes of 1955 and 1956 are starting to lay plans for a 25th year reunion which is set for July 31, Aug. 1 and 2 in 1981. The first meeting was held last week under the chairmanship of Sherrel Ca- reen and initial plans were prepared. Next week, repre- sentatives for both the Grad years of ‘65 and '66 will get together and members from both years are alerted. Dinner party held by O.E.S. On Sunday evening, 20 members and guests of Minto Chapter, Order of the. Eas- tern Star had a dinner party at the Monte Carlo restau- rant. Tables were attractive with Christmas centrepieces, the kindness of Worthy Ma- tron Mrs. Betty Crawford and Associate Matron Mrs. Cathy Stewart, At each place setting was a petite card of Christ- mas greetings and a candy cane. Mrs. Crawford extended a welcome toall and called on Edith Sherbiko to say Grace, after which all enjoyed a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Each of the small greet- ing cards was numbered and Mrs. Crawford, with the assistance of her mother Mrs, Purvis, drew numbers for the centrepieces, Clarence Ack- erman won the arrangement in a brass bowl; the other two were red tapers in the centre of Christmas wreaths, won by Douglas Askew and Cap Sutherland. A social time was en- joyed, with Mrs. Crawford giving each guest a gift and extending seasons greetings to all. Members would like to extend a thank you to all who helped with the cancer pro- ject — such as saving can- celled stamps, attending the Cancer Tea, memorial dona- tions and other donations. This money is kept in B.C. To rewrite B.C.'s new planning act VICTORIA (CP) — The B.C. government's new Plan- ning Act will be extensively rewritten to accommodate concerns about excessive pro- vincial control over locai land use decisions, says Municipal Affairs Minister Bill Vander Zalm. “We may have to do some considerable rewrit- ing," Vander Zalm said fol- lowing an all-day meeting with directors of the Union of B.C. Municipalities. The legislation, released in draft form at the Union of B.C. Municipalities conven- tion in September, has been heavily criticized by muni- cipal officials who fear the government is attempting to centralize planning powers so it can speed up development decisions. The union wants five major changes made to the planning legislation before it is introduced in the legisla- ture next spring, all of which would lead to reduced pro- vineial planning contro). Vander Zalm was largely non-committal when asked later what specific changes will be made to the legisla- tion, which would cut B.C. into seven giant regions and control virtually all land-use decisions by municipal and regional governments, pro- vincial ministries and Crown corporations, including B.C. Hydro. But regional district boards will have a larger role in land-use planning when the legislation is presented to the house, he said. Mynicipal governments have yet to be convinced that the Planning Act is necessary at all, union president Jim Ogilvie said in an interview. “We really question the need to implement, it,” he said. “The existing system could be fine-tuned ae im- proved.” and the slogan is “save can- celled stamps to help stamp out cancer.” The first meeting di- vided the members of the '66 class into groups of 16 and started phones ringing. About half of that class has been located but tracers are needed for the following peo- ple: Eleanor Shellenburgh, Daphne Quance, Don Gra- ham, Don Onions and Bill Ramsey. Anyone knowing of the ‘possible whereabouts of these people is asked to call either Sherre) Riley Careen at 365-3218 or Violet Gleboff Stoochnow at 365-8608. These are two of the _ best classes I ever had (I'm not really prejudiced—much) and their reunion this coming summer should be quite an event. More later. ‘Builds new factory To make religious artifacts MOSCOW (REUTER) — Russian Orthodox Christians exchanged festive greetings and embraces as they gath- ered recently for the blessing of a new factory on the out- skirts of Moscow, The factory, a vast three-storey, yellow-brick structure, will bring under one roof hundreds of sil- versmiths, goldsmiths, ar- tists and other craftsmen who make religious artifacts for Orthodox churches in Russia and abroad, Planned, built and fi- nanced by Orthodox Christ- | ians, it took three years to build and cost more than $6 million U.S. After a brief welcoming ceremony on the steps of the building, Pimen, the patri- arch of Russia, led a pro- cession of bishops and arch- bisops into the factory's small, but richly decorated chapel for a brief servico, What followed was a eurfous blend of religious rit- ual and the state-sponsored awards ceremonies familiar to workers in all Russian factories, The most distii jt with state awards. The So- viet government decorated the late patriarch Aleksei many times during the Sec- ond World War as part of a campaign to secure the church's loyalty. Since the blish munist party, the Russian church has been granted a stable, though limited ox- istence, The new factory will employ about 600 workers, most of them Russian Or- of Communist Power in 1917,. he the workers filed up to the patri- arch and, kissing his hand, were presented with the Order of the Russian Ortho- dox Church |! their atheist Communist state and the church has ranged from outright hostility to grudging accommodation, has eased services, wine- since Stalin's time but the of Chris- red cross bordered in gold, is worn on all religious oc- casions, just as workers in other factories display their state or party awards on days of national celebration. TRIED TO BUY LOYALTY Church leaders in the past have been presented tians are strictly limited to the confines of church prop- erty, and state anti-religious propaganda remains viru- lent. tn return for unques- tioning support of Soviet foreign policy and the revolu- tionary dogma of the Com- thodox beli » when it be- gins full production. Although a church insti- tution, the new enterprise is being run on a businesslike basis. Notices posted dis- , creetly warn that discipline id tut in others the production plan sets the rhythm of the working day as in other Rus- sian factories, “My monthly plan is 180 tons,” said an employee in the candle.workshop. “And I make sure I fulfil it. Our work is not the moat skilled n the factory but in some vays it is the most impor- ant, Without candles there tan be no services.” In the silversmiths' fa an are Persistent offenders risk dis- missal. One of the main sources of the church's income is the sale of candles, which Or- thodox Christians light as an offering before the icon of their favored saint. In some departments, able crucifixes, dulled by ons sassage of centuries, are res- yred to their former glory vy highly skilled craftsmen — iost of them trained in state institutions. Precious metals are wrought into ceremonial crowns, urns and cups and a wit ditional re- such as the icon articles are made to order ligious images.
