I shudder to think that the _ time has come when we must even think of sacrificing chil- dren's sports for commercial gains. The baseball and softball clubs have worked with the city for years in making this field : into a diamond that has hosted ‘ teams from across the province. I suggest to the city Here, members of all clubs ne to figure how they can get all their players a field to play on -for at least two games a week. At present we are fortunate that Slocan is playing with us as this gives another field, plus those at the various school “grounds in the district, T most certainly agree that we do need additional parking, but let’s not take the only field in downtown Castlegar.

Realty Ad Phrases Make Very Interesting Reading Gary Lautens Acolumn in the Toronto Star After commuting to work (31 miles each way) for nearly 14 years, I’ve decided it’s time to move into big, had Toronto. So we've sold our house (to anice couple from Calgary) and are going through the real estate ads each evening. Even though we're nov- ices, my wife and I are catching on to certain phrases copy- writers use in describing prop- erty for sale. For example, “close to everything” means there's no front lawn and you're so close to the street you'll think the buses are going through your living room. “Picturesque neighbor- hood"—there are winos sprawl- ed over the sidewalk. “Can be turned into income property"—the place has a basement and enough room behind the furnace to chang a hammock. “Handyman's special"— there's no ceiling in the bed- room, the wiring has been condemned, and you have to shinny a rope to get upstairs. “Victorian gem"—if you ‘weigh over 135 pounds you won't fit in the kitchen. “Can't be duplicated at the price"—no, but it can be for $25,000 less in Hamilton, “For those who want some- thing better"—it's out of your price range. “Ravine lot"—step outside DRY CLEANING 8 Ibs. $4.99 Ploza Cleaning Castleaird Plaza : 435 the back door and it's 76 feet straight down. “Move in for only $5,000 down"—and pay $1,200 a month carrying charges. “Architect designed"—the place has a bar in the basement made with leftover lumber by a previous tenant who took a shop course at high school. “Loads of extras"—there's a shower in the bath tub. “Only minutes from down- town"—by Soyuz rocket, and not during the rush hour. “Newly decorated”—the living room has been painted in the past 10 years, in marcon, “Lawyer's home"—the place has been lived in for 18 months by a motorcycle gang, but the second mortgage on the place is held by a man named Lawyer, who lives in Miami year round, “In prestige area"—it’s al- most half a block from an all-night pizza parlor. “Ideal for executive cou- ple"—there's only one bedroom and it's listed at over $100,000. - “Wake up each morning with the birds"—there’s a chicken plucker next. door. “Part of Toronto's past”— the house will have to be gutted and rebuilt. “Move into this centrally- located beauty and throw away your car keys"—there's no garage, side drive, or spot on the street for your car. “Pool-size _lot''—unfor- tunately, -you'll have to tear ‘down the house if you want to puta pool ‘on it. “Three or four-bedroomed home"—one of ‘the bedrooms "has a large closet. “Gourmet kitchen”—the can opener .on the wall goes with the house. headpiece trimmed. with seed saris.

In“the meantime it seems obvious that B.C. Hydro vis anxious to ‘clear the project { through the Water Comptrol- ler.) The pressure on the mayor. and council of the City of Revelstoke is simply enormous. Last week. there were 160 citizens at the public meeting the the face once the go-ahead on the dam at'4-mile is given. ‘It was.a wild meeting! May. I quote rather extensively on it as reported in the Revelstoke Review Sept. 1? Alderman Opra said, “Council has been on this thing © for a long time. We didn’t have time to get legal assistance to carry on the battle as vehe- mently as some of you may like. We want: to make sure the citizens don't suffer financial burdens because of the dam.

Our: borrowing power. depleted. The city pays 27 mills for debt alone and 28 mills to run the city, of which 17 usually goes for snow removal.” A letter from a citizen was then read that said that Hydro’s confidence ‘that the Downie Slide could ‘be stabl- lized was not good enough, that he was against the dam and urged the people to “stop sitting on your butts, write the premier, your M.L.A, It's your duty. to. protect your rights.” (Thunderous applause.) Mayor Parker in response asked if 8,000 people could tell the rest of the province ' they couldn't have power. He had is’ ‘tried to get local organizations to submit briefs tnd “we've endorsed them.” He went on, “we know that people are against the dam and I venture to say all members of council are against it.” “Then why don't you op- pose it?” asked a citizen. “We have,” yelled Parker, “but op- position in the past (to Hydro) has negated any mitigation.” - The citizens appreciated the mayor’s further reference + to the hard work and thinking that had ae into the 800 page brief submitted to Hydro, but he was unable to dissuade the + meeting from.adopting a mo- tion that urged council to take a firm and open opposition to the “one dam" concept. = . Only 10°people were a- gainst the motion, - So there you have it, it is ‘an emotional issue, and a tough issue. All of the scenes have not been acted out though. How do you readers feel about it?
