ViL 1C8 (604) 352-6601 Careers Training By MARLENE HABIB The Canadian Press and cooling, 's buoyant appeal has also made it a popular form of working out with minimal strain on muscles and joints. “But generally speaking, people feel all they have to do to get fit — to firm up and strengthen your heart — is jump in the pool and swim 60 laps,"’ says Mike Shane, Ontario program director of the Royal Life Saving Society. “They should also keep in mind that frequency and intensity of a workout, as well as Proper warmup and cool-down periods, are important parts ofa fitness program,”’ Shane said in an interview in Toronto. The society is a national non-profit organization Ahat trains swim instructoes, offers classes to the public and educates individuals about water safety. It stresses that while it’s important not to jump into a fitness program haphazardly, instructors and other professionals aren't essential. So it has Produced an easy-to-follow swim program called the FIT Plan. In conjunction with the plan, a so-called Fit Disc has been produced by the Dr. Paul Schwann Fitness Centre at the University of Regina. The disc, a piece of cardboard with a moving wheel, helps participants design a personal swim Program that suits their ability and current fitness level. The wheel is turned to reveal progressively harder workouts. “*You can mix and match by selecting different activities from different workouts, but we recommend you select activities from the same level,”’ the society Says. For instance, the first level — Bronze 1 — consists of 14 lengths of the pool with strokes such as the breaststroke and freestyle. If the workout doesn’t test your stamina enough, you can add lengths and swim faster. New swim program easy to follow for workout The highest level — Super-Gold 6 — calls for 50 Pool lengths combining more difficult and intense strokes such as the butterfly. The FIT Plan stands for frequency, intensity and time, and this is how it works: Frequency — Plan your water workouts at least three times a week, preferably every other day. Your body needs to recover, and fitness improvements occur voople feel all they have to do to get fit... is jump in the land swim 60 laps. They should also keep in mind that frequency and intensity of a workout, as well as Proper warmup and cool-down riods, are important parts of a itness program.’ — Mike Shane, Ontario program director of the Royal Life Saving Society during that recovery time. Regular exercise is important because the benefits of an activity session begin to fade after 48 hours. Intensity — Work hard enough to get your heart rate into your personal target zone. The disc simplifies this aerobic calculation. Time — Start out easy. Work with your heart rate in your target zone for a minimum of 15 minutes. Increase gradually to 20 to 30 minutes. “Every four weeks, swim as far as you can in 12 minutes, with your heart rate in your Personal target zone in the whole time, and record the distance covered,’’ the disc says. Shane says every workout should involve warmup and I~ ivities that include | ing-up Stretches. Strength exercises, like pushups and situps, are recommended before cooling down. For a copy of the Fit Disc, send $6 to any Provincial branch of the Royal Life Saving Society. Older novice drivers high risk TORONTO (CP) — Young males are still the most dangerous drivers — risk-taking and vul to peer pressure. But insurers have identified a new high-risk group: older, newly licensed drivers. “Our population is aging and im- migrants, many of them older with no driving experience, enter the country every day,’’ Robert McCormick, chairman of the Insurance Bureau of Canada, said. “‘It means we have more and more older drivers getting their licence for the first time — and age doesn’t necessarily mean you're a good driver.”” McCormick said these conclusions are drawn from a 180-page study of accident statistics by the Traffic In- jury Research Foundation of Canada. The study was commissioned by the insurance bureau to examine trends in traffic accidents in Canada. “All new drivers -were found to have collision rates at least 50 per cent greater than those of experienced drivers,"’ said McCormick. He called on provincial governmen- ts to. try a ‘‘graduated licensing Program’ to restrict novice drivers — barring them from driving late at night or on major highways, or limiting the number of teenaged in the car. 601-18th St., Castlegar 365-3368 Check with us to be sure your vehicle is rated correctly.

In one way or another, abortion touches each of us and as a pastor and a counsellor, I’m compelled to wrestle with the problem first hand. I’ve stood on the lawn in Victoria, at a (Dr. Henry) Morgentaler rally and watched the TV media bypass over a thousand pro-life supporters and interview a small group of four or five pro-choice supporters standing on the fringes all dressed in black. I heard the crowd being described as a handful of radical fundamentalist fanatics who didn’t know what they were talking about. I’ve counselled for hours on end with many who have had an abortion as they struggled with the emotional aftermath.

PLAZA the father who openly allowed his 13- year-old daughter to ‘thang out” around a local night club and then he comes crying to me asking if I will ask God to abort his daughter’s pregnan- cy, because he’s more concerned about his own reputation than his daughter's welfare. (By the way, both daughter and her child are doing fine.) I've cried in utter frustration, as a close friend of the family succumbed to a boyfriend’s pressure and went through with an abortion. I’ve walked through the pain with a young woman, as she struggled with a Pregnancy that resulted from a rape. I can go on and on, but the reality of the fact is that my experience is Probably no different than many, if not most, of the other clergy in our area. Abortion leaves none of us un- touched and I haven’t even men- tioned the young life in the womb — that has no choice or say in the mat- ter. Let me share with you some of my Personal concerns. I fear that at times in our zeal to rescue the unborn, we have often alienated and ostracized the young mother who has experien- ced the trama of an abortion, instead of extending our hand to help as would Jesus. We have pushed them away with their fear of rejection. I ask myself if I’m helping to Provide an atmosphere and resources in our own church that will allow the single parent, who has chosen to keep her child to feel accepted in the same manner that I know Jesus accepts them Himself. At times I get frustrated to the point of anger when an issue with such mental, emotional, physical, spiritual and moral consequences is left in the hands of the courts, whose mandate is to uphold the legality of an issue, not its morality. And worse yet, how can abortion, on which there seems to be no middle ground, be dealt with in a political arena which exists primarily on compromise. As I close this article, let me say one more thing. I am well aware of the in- tensity of the arguments on both sides of the fence that relate to the actual point in time wher the child is con- sidered a living human being rather than ‘‘the product of conception.”” All I ask is that if we are going to err, for ‘‘God’s sake” let us err on the side of life.

With his massive canoe sculpture for the Canadian Embassy in Washington nearing completion, Reid’s next major challenge could be his own people in the misty Queen Charlotte Islands. He wanis his art to reunite them with their roots and rekindle their pride. Reid speaks sadly of alcoholism, broken homes and suicides in his mother’s village of Skid » where in Toronto ‘‘because I didn’t see any reason for sitting in a booth and talking to myself.’’ Reid returned to the West Coast in TELEPHONE 365-5210 / the early 1950s to start a new career As @ carver. At first he copied’museum Pieces and photographs. Then he began to strike out on his own. Although Reid’s art is drawn from mythology, he likens it to calligraphy “because it goes straight from the subject matter to the person observing it... it’s a decorative art form, but the decoration is the form. “‘It isn’t mythology so much as the actual graphic expression of that mythology. I’m still pretty shaky on who did what to whom.’’ 17-FOOT Fil TRAILER FOR ABOVE. wheel drive.

Some of his gold bracelets sell for $25,000, and a gold box would approach $100,000, says Karen Duffek, a Museum of An- thropology researcher at the Univer- sity of British Columbia. “tHe brought native art into the limelight, out of the natural history museums and into the galleries,”’ she says. ‘‘He’s gone past those boun- daries of northwest native art.”” The artist recently won the annual $100,000 Royal Bank Award, which honors important Canadian accom- plishments. Reid, 70, sits in his cavernous Van- couver studio where the aroma of cedar hangs over plaster of paris splatters from the canoe and its figures. By October, after four years of work, the six-metre canoe and its oc- cupants — personalities from Haida mythology — will become the Spirit of Haida Gwaii (Haida Kingdom) af- ter they are cast in bronze in a foun- dry in Beacon, N.Y. His white hair flowing back, Reid sits on a second-hand couch and talks in a slow, raspy voice. His left leg twitches, a reminder of Parkinson's disease which he contracted 15 years 0. Like the Haidas of the Charlottes, Reid knows adversity well, but a wry, self-deprecating sense of humor and medication help him deal with ‘‘this damned disease which makes me un- comfortable.’” Parkinson's doesn’t curtail Reid’s creativity. Short, sharp strokes of his carving tool send chips flying from a damp red cedar block as he forms the dorsal fin of the killer whale that will topa staff in the canoe. It is the sculpture’s final piece. Later, working on a different sculpture, his steady hands delicately guide a propane‘torch as he joins two thin strands of 18-karat gold. Wire sculpture is his latest endeavor, for- ming small animals as he works the strand with his fingers and tiny pliers. Born in Victoria to a Haida woman “‘who did her best to get away from the native existence’ and a Scottish- American man, Reid learned design from his mother, a dressmaker to the aristocrats of the B.C. capital. But he wasn’t encouraged to become an artist and worked in small- town radio before concluding a 20- year broadcasting career at the CBC TANNING SPECIAL Sun., Mon. & Tues.
