-DISPLAYS WORK
AT HOMESTEAD

By CasNews Staff

The works of Robson artist Sandra Groepler are
featured in this month's Presentation Series at the Home-

~stead Soup and-Sandwich Shoppe. The show opened Friday

Groepler’s early years were spent on Long Island, N.Y.
where she was encouraged by her mother to be involved in
many of the decorative arts, Groepher says in a release. Her
enjoyment of rural landscapes and of the sea was nurtured
by many happy childhood summers there.

In 1966 Groepler graduated from Cornell University
with a Bachelor of Science in Home Economics, majoring in
Housing and Interior Design.

During the next few years she experimented in various
lines of work, becoming a food editor for the trade magazine
Vending Times, assistant director in an art gallery in
upstate New York, an editor on_the alumini magazine for
Ithaca College, and a visual aids producer on a bilingual
project in Albuquerque, N.M.

Groepler then returned to her studies and graduated
from the University of New Mexico in 1972 with a Masters
Degree in Art Education and Home Economics. For the next
12 years (1972-1984) she taught in her chosen disciplines at
Stanley Humphries Secondary School.

Since then, she has devoted her time to her artistic
endeavors — especially in the pastel medium.

Groepler’s work has been accepted at several juried art
shows: the sixth annual Kootenay Boundary Juried Art

irom which her work was selected for the Provincial
Exhibition in Robson Square in Vancouver; an exhibit of
works of new artists in the Frame Art Gallery in Nelson; and
the 10th anniversary presentation entitled, Changes, at the

film's portrayal of women
lawyers is not quite accurate.

Jill Wine-Banks, 42, an as-
sistant state attorney gen-
eral, was shown a copy of the
script by the producers two
years ago and asked to make
suggestions on how female
lawyers think, act and dress.

“There were some things
that were clearly absurd,”
said Wine-Banks of the
script. “She was wearing
frilly clothes. Women law-
yers wear suits, not a lacy
dress.”

Jagged Edge stars Jeff
Bridges as a man accused of
murdering his wife for her
money, and Glenn Close as
the woman lawyer hired to
defend him.

Wine-Banks, 42, who help-

ed prosecute the Watergate

rlichman, H.R. Haldeman and
others, also said most law-
yers would not go out to meet

Colbert still
acting at 82

LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Claudette Colbert strides off-
stage with co-star Rex Harri-
son, both seeming pleased
that they have once more
managed to breathe life into
Frederick Lonsdale’s antique
comedy of manners, Aren't
We All?

They are nearing the ‘end
of a run that has stretched
from London to New York to
San Francisco. Their next

stop is Washington and there .

might be an Australian tour
next-year.

Colbert is Stunhing in a
couture gown, her small fig-
ure as trim as ever, the
trademark bangs in place,
the apple cheeks smooth as a
girl's.

She goes directly to her
smallish dressing room,
changes into slacks, then re-
ceives post-performance vis-
itors; Carol Channing and
husband, Charles Lowe. The
lilting Colbert laughter fills
the backstage corridor.

For 25 years, the actress
had been one of Hollywood's
most dazzling stars, appear-
ing in 63 films including The
Sign of the Cross, Cecil B.
DeMille's~ Cleopatra, Imita-
tion of Life, Tovarich, Drums
Along the Mohawk, Boom
Town, So Proudly We Hail
and The Egg and I

The role that won her the
1934 Academy Award for
best actress was the runaway
heiress in It Happened One
Night.

She talks fondly of her
home in Barbados: “It’s a
divine place. The tempera-
ture never gets over 83 and
never falls under 70. I love it
there. I swim every day.”

Then why would she leave
to tour in a creaky, 60-
year-old comedy?

“I love to act,” she con-
fessed with a guilty giggle.
“I never thought I would still
be acting at the age of 82.
Never.”

“Jack (her husband) was
all set to retire from UCLA in
1968, and we were going to
spend our life together at
Barbados, which we both
loved. But while I was down
there getting things ready,
he had an operation here for

cancer of the intestines. They
removed all the cancer, but it
had already spread to his
liver. Within five months he
was dead.

“We had been married for
35 years. It was a tremen-
dous blow. I can't tell you.”

Since then she has devoted
herself to the theatre. She
has had film offers but noth-
ing good.
-Born Lily Claudette Chau-
choin in Paris, she came ‘to
New York with her parents

in -1910,--made—her-stage-

debut in 1923, then scored on
Broadway in The Barker.
Her first film was the silent
For the Love- of Mike, dir-
ected by newcomer Frank
Capra, and she lived in Cali-
fornia from 1932-58 then re-
turned to the theatre to play
Marriage-Go-Round with
Charles Boyer.

“People then asked me: if
it was hard to do stage work
after so many years in films,”
she said. “They still do. The
theatre is where I started,
for heaven's sake. And I still
love it.”

She donned a dashing red
cape and was_ escorted
through the stage door to-
ward the street.

“Oh, dear,” she said, eye-
ing a cluster of fans on the
curb. She spotted one with a
camera and warned: “No pic-
tures!”

Star in
Playboy

CHICAGO (AP) — Don
Johnson, star of NBC-TV's
Miami Vice, is‘almost — but
not quite — nude in a 10-page
photo essay in Playboy mag-
azine’s January issue.

The photos show Johnson's
shoulders, chest and thighs,
but reveal more of - his
ex-wife, Body Double star
Melanie Griffith.

The pictures were taken in
1976 as part of a series of
pictorials on couples. Griffith
has since married actor Ste-
ven Bauer and Johnson has
become a parent with actress
Patti D'Arbanville.

cP shareholders
approve merger

MONTREAL (CP) — Can-
adian Pacific Ltd. announced
this week its shareholders
have approved arrangements
for a merger between the

and its ‘y>

“double discount” resulting
from CP’s two-tiered corpor-
ate structure.

Under the existing. struc-
ture, CP Ltd. acts as a hold-
for CP Enter-

Canadian Pacific Enterprises
Ltd. of Calgary.

“Now we will have a fully
modern corporate structure,”
said Frederick Burbidge,
chairman of CP Ltd., who
announced results of the vote
taken at a special meeting of
shareholders.

“This will give us an inte-
grated from

ing

prises, which in turn acts as a
holding company for a num-
ber of companies including
Cominco, PanCanadian Pet-
roleum, Alcoma Steel, Maple
Leaf Mills, and Marathon
Realty.

This means that CMP Ltd.
does not have direct control
over many of its assets, and
analysts say its shares have

which to address the CP
group. It will also have a
pgsitive effect from a finan-
cial point of view because it
will eliminate one holding
company. CP shares will re-
flect more accurately the
value of CP assets.”

Under terms of the mer-
ger, approved in principle by
the boards of directors of the
two companies in September,
each common share of CP
Enterprises will be exchang-
ed for 1,675 ordinary shares
of CP Ltd. .

CP Ltd. shareholders
passed a resolution allowing
five directors of CP Enter-
prises to become directors of
CP Ltd. The new directors
would be Thomas Galt, Mer-
vin Leitch, Alan MacNaugh-
ton, John Nichol and Ronald

TORONTO (CP) — Furious
trading on the Toronto Stock

week Friday, but share
prices could not withstand a
wave of profit taking.

The TSE 300 compo:
index fell 16.14 points to
2,863.24, cutting this indica-
tor's gain for the week to

vances 431 to 298 while 362

million shares.

All but one of the 14 stock
groups lost ground. Hardest
hit was the communications
and media group, sliding
82.86 points to 4,805.11.

Other major losers includ
ed the transportation group,
off 36.77 to 3,757.73, mer-
chandising 26.30 to 2,969.76,
utilities 25.40 to 2,876.34, and
management companies
24.67 to 3,583.65.

The only winner was pipe-
lines, which rose a bare 5.70
to 2,754.59.

In New York, the Dow
Jones industrial average fell
5.78 points to 1,477.18, cut-
ting the week's gains to 5.05
points.

But Toronto and New York
have been the scenes of fren-
zied buying all week because

of wide expectations of lower

States have been drawing in-
vestors like a magnet.

Traders said selloffs occur-

closed,” SFP president I-K.
Barber said Thursday.

Speaking from SFP's head-
quarters in Richmond, Bar-
ber said “we expect (the
transaction) to be done be-
fore Christmas.”

He said the reason for the
purchase is it’s simply “a
good opportunity.”

“It will add about 65 to 70
million board feet” to the
company’s annual production
capacity, he said.

Barber would not disclose
what remains to be com-
pleted in the transaction,
saying only that loose ends
common to all business deals
have to be cleared up.

The transaction also needs
the approval of B.C.’s Min-
istry of Forests.

Barber said SFP’s_ pur-
chase of the mill will not
mean a change of staff.

SFP also operates sawmills
in Quesnel (120-130 million

board feet) and Slocan (90-96

million board feet).
