Hydro to replace threatened home of. Michael Newman. B.C. Hydro has agreed to build a new house for Michael Newman. after his present home was endan- gered earlier this month by an 800-metre crack on a slope one. mile upstream of the Seven Mile Dam near Trail. The home will be built at another location on New- man's 182-acre property im- mediately after architectural designs have been approved by Newman and B.C. Hydro.

Hydro drew down water in the Seven Mile pond to its lowest level since it was initially filled in 1979, Hydro’s Seven Mile proj- ect manager Vaughan Mosh- er, said the drawdown of the pond may have had some- thing to do with the settle- ment of the hillside, but pointed out that this is a common geological occur- the The crack did not present any threat to the dam or to Hy- dro me retained the services of Irvine Low, a consulting from Oliver, for an In addition to the mon- itoring work done by its own independent assessment of the problem. Cath Quiding, Irene Pater and Virginia Maida, all of Castlegar and Marlene Orr of Trail. Outdoors with a camera . One of the great plea- sures ‘of the outdoors. is taking good pictures of your adventures. Thanks to the wonders of computers which have yworked out the math of lenses, and the unbelievable skills of camera people who | have developed small camer- as, it's. possible now to ‘get professional-quality pictures with simple cameras. -' We happened to get a Konica, but other companies make these small, automatic cameras too: Minolta, Yashi- ca, Canon, Nikon, Asahi- Pentax, Rollei and others. True, most of these really small ones don't have interchangeable lenses, but that feature, or lack of feature, keeps the price and the size down. Most of them let you override the auto- matic feature if you wish. ° We're delighted with her little camera and I find myself using it on articles for national magazines which re- quire top-notch pictures. I you're looking at these small cameras, one of the major decisioris is whether it automatically adjusts the lens opening or the shutter speed to get the right expo- sure. : There's something to be said for both types, but _whichever you choose, the cameras available today are wonders compared to what we had only a few years ago. They let the hiker or other outdoor type travel light and still have a first-rate camera. * 8 There's a lot of argu- ment whether human lives are saved on highways when the speed limit is dropped from around 70 (110 km) per hour down to around 55 (90 km) per hour, A’ study along a major highway shaws that, the lower speed limit does save a lot of wildlife. Species in- volved in the study were pheasants, rabbits, raccoons, skunks, opossums, deer, coy~ otes, badgers and muskrats. In 1973, the last year before the speed limit was dropped in the States a total of 4,493 of these animals. were killed. In 1975, when the speed limit was down, the total road kill of the nine species was 1,983, a drop of about 56 per cent. The traffic volume didn’t drop, so the decrease in wildlife road kills was ap- parently due to the reduction in speed alone.
