Yuppies boosted
children's books

TORONTO (CP) — Mary-
ann Kovalski, an author and
illustrator originally from
New York, remembers when
Canadian
for children were almost non.
existent.

“When I came to Toronto, I
just id advertising and edi.
torial work — there was no
children’s book industry,”
says Kovalski, 36.

Now, Canadian illustrated
books have never looked
better thanks to dozens of
artists producing about 300
titles annually, says Kathy
Lowinger, executive director
of the Children’s Book Cen
tre, a  government-funded
promotional agency.

Lowinger says the big
change occurred in the mid.
1970s, with government sup-
port for authors and pub-
lishers.

In 1974, Dennis Lee's
huge-selling Alligator Pie,
with illustrations by Frank
Newfield, showed Canadians
that indigenous children’s
books’ could be as good as
any.

Specialist children's book
stores began opening and
thriving, and new publishers

CREDITS YUPPIES

Lowinger attributes the
growth to “the beginnings of
the yuppie market,” as the
new generation of parents
wanted some illustrated
reading material for their
children.

Kovalski got involved in
1981 “by sheer fluke.”

ys.
A friend told her that
Hussey was looking for some.
one to illustrate a book in just
six weeks. It was the break
Kovalski needed. Her work,
Molly and Mr. Maloney, is
still in print.

Kovalski’s most recent ef-
fort, The Wheels on the Bus,
is her eighth. Adapted from a
song, it takes the central
characters back to a nos.
talgic, 1940s-looking London
on a ‘bright red double.
decker bus.

“A really good children's
book respects its readers,”
Kovalski says.

“Children can appreciate
wit and sarcasm as well as a
beautiful image. Like adults,

they should be exposed to the
gamut. But a lot of writerd
and illustrators pander to
kids.”

WINS AWARDS

Barbara Reid, whose
whimsical and detailed Plas-
ticine tableaux have brought
her a clutch of awards, says
she likes “to do things that I
would've liked when I was a
kid.”

Her book Have You Seen
Birds, published last year by
Scholastic, won four awards
for its pictures.

In Reid's new book, Sing a
Song of Mother Goose, the
illustrations — photographs

Reid's pieces taken by her
husband — are less elaborate
but just as compelling.

Children's books began as
a hobby for Ann Blades, who
has written or illustrated 10
titles since 1971.

Ads on CBC would
affect programs

OTTAWA (CP) — Com
munications Minister Flora
MacDonald predicts Canad
ians would see fewer contro-

duce the Crown corporation's
reliance on the government
for money and would en-
courage the CBC to broad-

versial and pro-
grams if CBC television tries
to raise revenues with more
commercials.

“A commercial posture af-
fects CBC's responsibility to
reflect its special responsi:
bilities,” the minister said in
a lengthy document issued
Friday to the Commons com
munications committee.

CBC television executives
suggested this week they
may insert advertising in
programs that are now com-
mercial-free. The network
has also said it plans to take
less-expensive American
shows off the air and replace
them with top-quality Can
adian programs.

Pulp mill plans
put on hold

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Forest giant MacMillan Bloe-
del’s $115 million plan to ex-
pand its operations in Port
Alberni has been put on
hold, says a company official.

Gary Johncox, the comp-
any’s vice president of human
resources, said the Port Al-
berni capital project decision
is the “major item” deferred
by the company and is the
result of a strategy to slow
down corporate expenditures
and capital plans.

The decision was made be-
cause of “the uncertainty in
the economy coming from the
volatility in the stock mar-
ket,” said Johncox.

October
was a
warm one

By CasNews Staff

Castlegar had one of the
warmest, brightest October's
ever, threatening to break
every record at the Castlegar
Airport weather office.

There were 194.4 hours of
sunshine, just 3%, hours
short of the record in 1974.

The total rainfall was only
5 mm, just 1.2 mm more than
the recorded low set in 1974
also.

This year measurable rain
fell on just five days, the
normal being 12 days. The
average temperature was 8.5
C., up from the normal of 7.6
c.

set one record
last month. The lowest mean
wind speed of 8.6 kmh was
well below the old record of
4.6 set last year.

Hospital
holds

discussion

The Castlegar and District
Hospital held a diabetic dis-
cussion session Monday. The
event was well attended and
many: topics were covered.

Dr. Ron Perrier, pharm-
acist Judy Balfour, regis-
tered nurse, Vi Hegan and
dietician Linda Salonen pre-
sented a series of lectures
pretaining to diabetic living.

Diabetic discussions are
planned four times yearly.
All diabetics in the area are
invited to attend the ses-
sions. The next diabetic dis-
cussion will be held in the
spring.

MacMillan Bloedel presi-
dent Ray Smith said the Port
Alberni pulp mill éxpansion
is just one of a number of
capital-investment projects
that are on hold.

“Given the singular events
of Oct. 19 (the worst single-
day stock market crash in
Wall Street history) it is pru-
dent to stay and see what the
outfall is going to be,” said
Smith.

Airlines
terminate
deal

VANCOUVER (CP) —
Canadian Airlines Interna-
tional has ended ita arrange-
ment with Vancouver-based
Burrard Air Ltd. to be its
official feeder airline on two
Vancouver Island routes, the
airline said.

Burrard Air president

Skelton said Alber-
ta-based Time Air, in which
Canadian Airlines holds a
major interest, has taken
over by increasing its service
on the Vancouver-Nanaimo
and Vancouver-Campbell
River routes.

Canadian Airlines spokes-
man Jack Lawless said the
airline's contract with Bur-
rard Air was from April to
October and was only in-
tended to be an interim mea-
sure.

“Time Air now has the
equipment and can operate
on its own into those areas,”
he said.

Skelton said Burrard Air
will continue to fly the routes
and has arranged for Ward-
air to handle its ticketing
arrangements at Vancouver
International Airport.

Mandatory testing urged

TORONTO (CP) — A fed-
eral Health Ministry report
calls for mandatory AIDS
testing for immigrants, the
Toronto Globe and Mail re-
ported Saturday.

The newspaper said it ob-
tained a 79-page memo to
cabinet from the Health and

attractive, even though
patients with acquired im-
mune deficiency syndrome
would not necessarily be ex-

The Globe quoted a source
as saying Health Minister
Jake Epp has approved the
report but it has yet to go to
cabinet.

Images

In a section of the report
entitled “ministerial recom-
mendations,” Epp firmly op-
poses mandatory AIDS test-
ing for the general public be-
cause “the cost of repeatedly
surveying the entire popu-
lation would be prohibitive
(up to $250 million per year).”

Mandatory testing of im-
migrants would either keep
those who test positive for
the AIDS antibody out of the
country or to at least keep
track of them, “to detect any
significant change that might
signal a poliey. review.”

Although the United
States has implemented man-
datory AIDS testing fo
immigrants, the consensus
among experts is that the

to hold

move will have little impact.

The report, called Pre-
paring Canada for AIDS in
the 90s, also predicts that by
1991 the fatal disease will
have cost the health-care
system more than $500 mil-
lion.

The department asks that
the $4-million public edu-
cation fund on AEDS be in-
creased by about $53 million,

since education is currently
the only effective means of
controlling the spread of the

disease.
