Program supervisors Colleen Drobot (bottom) and Lesley Wilson are shown with murals depicting the reading themes. The murals are also full of symbols (parrots, cars, bubbles), each repr: a book read. A gu can be made from the photographs, or contest entrants can take a quick trip to the library basement to see the murals for themselves (no long-term counting allowed). Prizes of paperback books will be offered for nearest estimates. The reading program is in its last week and will wind up with a general sports and games day. SAY The Castlegar Airport lobby was jammed by 7:30 a.m. Aug. 5, as more than 70 Japanese students and their chap bid tearful to new friends and their homestay hosts prior to their return flights to Vancouver. Two separate English language/Canadian cul- ture student tours hosted by Selkirk College com- prised this summer's international education activ- ities, One tour, a group of 34 students and three instructors from Aoyama Technical College, spent from July 19 to Aug. 5 in Castlegar. The other, 30 students and two instructors from Konan Junior College for Women, spent three weeks in Grand Forks. The two tours were similar in structure, with mornings spent in Selkirk College classrooms learning English skills, and reserved for cultural or recreational pursuits. All the visiting students resided with Homestay host fam- ilies. “This year we built in a little more free time into the student's itinerary to give host families more time with their students,’’ said Gail Oglow, co-ordi- nator of the Castlegar tour group. Oglow was assisted during the three-week tour by nine local student cultural assistants. Their job was to assist with bus driving duties, to provide opportunities for the Japanese students to practice their English, to participate in recreational activities, and provide support during tours, cultural events and recreational activities. Some of the cultural i the group's activities on video and film enabling the Japanese to take home a video- tape of their Canadian adventures. “Our goal is first, to provide students with opportunities to learn and use conversational English NARA! Students say goodbye with ivities, as the stud: are on a school break from their studies at home, and they want to have fun while they're here. The most important part of the program though, is the of fri between students and the Canadian cultural assistants, staff members, and Homestay families. That's what inter- national education is all about.'’ This year’s Castlegar group visited the Rossland Mining Museum, Nancy Greene Lake, Zuckerberg Island and the Doukhobor Village Museum. At Syringa Creek Provincial Park they went canoeing and boardsailing, and played tennis and golf several times during their stay. A highlight for the Japanese students was a three-day trip to Banff National Park, and they also visited a local sawmill and a designer log home. “The wel and itality provided by the people of Grand Forks and Christina Lake was over- whelming,’’ said Paul Thompson, director of the Grand Forks tour group. “The tour was more successful than we had ever imagined."’ Students from Konan Junior College took golf and tennis lessons, went horseback riding, visited local artists, and cruised Christina Lake on a house- boat. They also spent a day in the Okanagan, where the waterslide was the most popular stop. On Aug. 5, it all came to an end, as students and hosts hugged and wept prior to their departure. Many lasting friendships had been forged, many lovely memories cherished. Next year, Selkirk College anticipates a continu- ation of the English Aanguage/Canadian culture tours. Aoyama Techplal College, Selkirk’s sister in an English that isn’t possible in Japan,”’ said John Armstrong, head of Selkirk College’s department of International Edu- cation. “We want to combine the language learning has made‘plans to return for their third sit, and the leaders of the Konan Jr. College tour have indicated their desire to return next summer.

ROCK, HYDE Ex-Payolas split VANCOUVER (CP) Rock and Hyde, who on their own and as the core of The Payolas have had five hit albums since 1979, are going their separate ways for the time being. But publicist Kimberley Blake stresses the hiatus isn’t the end of the singing duo, whose album Under the Volcano sold 70,000 copies in Canada last year, but an under. whelming 25,000 copies in the United States despite a lavish marketing campaign. Bob Rock has become a hot prop- erty behind the microphone as a reeording engineer and producer. He engineéred Bon Jovi's 1986 multi-million seller Slippery When Wet and he and Jovi are in Van couver's Little Mountain studios again working on another album. “He's been too busy with pro- Our Action Ad Number is 365-2212 ducing to do anything with his own music,"’ Blake said. ‘‘It's kind of taken a back seat “Bob is very much in demand right now. It was a choice he had to make.” Rack has also produced work for Kingdom Come and his schedule this year inclides production with The Cult and guitarist John Sykes, for merly of Whitesnake. Meanwhile, Paul Hyde is at home writing and working in his basement recording studio on demo tapes for a solo effort on Capitol Records next year, Blake said. Hyde has also produced other acts, most recently Raymond May, but Blake says he's more interested in developing the artistic side of his career. Blake quashed rumors of personal differences between Rock and Hyde who last performed together at some local club dates in April. “They very much do want to work together again,” she said. “It was really a matter of Bob tending to the things at hand. They're still very, very close.” Kids’ firm goes bust OTTAWA (CP) — A Toronto-based firm that sold child identification kits and registered more than 100,000 children with its child-find service has declared bankruptcy, the Ottawa Citizen reports today. H.F. Partners Inc., which operated under the name Canadian Missing Children Systems, filed for bank- tuptcy Friday. A creditors’ meeting is to be held Sept. 6 in Toronto. Canadian Missing Children Sys- tems operated branches in Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, Mississauga, Ont., Vancouver and Montreal — but only Ottawa and Toronto had been active recently, a company spokes- man said. Kits originally sold for $35. The price was raised briefly to $50, then dropped back to $35 when sales fell. The kits contained two small plas- tic bags for hair samples, a few said telephone calls to a hot-line would be answered in less than three hours and a private investigator would take the case if the child wasn’t found within three days. Pat Foster, spokesman for Child Find, a non-proft group that tries locate missing children, said the contents of Canadian Missing Chil- dren Systems’ kits could be picked up for spare change at any stationery store. The other services promised are available from Child Find for free. “They don’t give a damn about children, they just care about money,”’ said Frank Vice, a former employee in the Toronto office, adding that sales staff earned $8 to $10 commission for each kit. Ottawa employees walked out Aug. 4 after paycheques bounced. Const. Steve Marshall of the neff” by Nepean force said the kits were over-priced and that without proper training, most people wouldn’t have known how to obtain useable finger- prints. Marshall said he personally re- ceived about 40 calls over three months from parents asking about the company. But because the comp- any was legal, police had to be careful about what they told callers. Ottawa reviews UI OTTAWA (CP) — The federal sheets of paper, and an ink. blotter for taking children’s finger and palm prints, so parents would have ready information if a child dis- appeared.

Premier invited to be editor for day VICTORIA (CP) — An offer to create headlines instead of making them has intrigued Premier Bill Van- der Zalm, who said Tuesday he is very interested in an offer by the Nanaimo Free Press to become front page editor for a day. “I'm very interested,"’ he said in an interview. ‘I'm pursuing it ac- tively. “I'm going to see how I can fit it in between other things."’ The 114-year-old newspaper, noting Vander Zalm’s disdain toward the media ii recent months, offered to give him complete control of the content and presentation of stories and photos appearing on page 1 and also offered space on the editorial page for the premier’s comment. The invitation did not appear to intimidate the premier, who is no stranger to making headlines: ‘‘] think it would be a piece of cake, really. The Free Press, owned by Thom- son Newspapers Ltd., and which has a circulation of about 10,000, said it would donate a week's pay to a local charity if Vander Zalm accepts the invitation August 17, 1988 Castlégar News Ay ap Managing editor Wayne Campbell said the premier would be given a day’s training in the newsroom prior to his stint as an editor.
