Dr. John Adams, head of the Fields and volunteer craftsman Art Koch, the chapel house has been stripped down to the original logs and that the contract for a new roof has been completed. Koch, with another crew of Katimaviks replaced the foundations of the chapel house and re-attached the front porch. As well, they reroofed and restored the original log cabin. The city has brought a water line and hydrant to the house, he said, and a new power line will enable electrical contractors to install power and alarm systems in the house at an early date. It is then planned to insulate and refinish the inside of the house. In the meantime, craftsman Gordie Hill and The Katimavik team have constructed, stained and mounted decorative shutters on all the lower windows of the house, pending the installation of glass. Katimavik, working under the direction of Heritage Committee Chairman John Charters, have kept the bridge and paths open during the recent heavy snows and high water, and have continued the slashing of the acacia trees. An interim report by Dr. Mark Mealing, Anthropolgy professor at Selkirk College, was also received. Dr. Mealing and the Selkirk College Anthropolgy 210 class began the construction of Kakuli House (Indian winter pit house) last fall to increase public awareness of the island as an early Indian heritage site, complementing the present pit-house sites. To date, the students have dug the pit (near the end of the bridge) and erected the framework for the house.

The coin would feature some aspect or aspects of the island park. City administrator Dave Gairns discussed the pros and cons or registering as a non-profit society under the Societies Act and the matter will be given further consid- eration at the next meeting.

Bennett shuffles cabinet VICTORIA (CP) — Terry Segarty, a relatively unknown Social Credit backbencher who was a union member until 1979, was named British Columbia's labor minister today in a cabinet shuffle that involved three other portfolios. Segarty, 38, member of the legislature for Kootenay, succeeds Bob McClelland. McClelland becomes minister of industry and small business development, a portfolio left vacant by the -appointment of Don Phillips ashead of the newMinistry of Trade and I; Another backbencher, Austin Pelton, 64, takes over as environment minister — one of two portfolios held by Tony Brummet. Brummet, who as the former environment minister was at the centre of the controversy over the government's wolf-kill program, retains his other job as minister of lands, parks and housing. The surprise of the cabinet shuffle was the appointment of'Trish-born Segarty, who admitted he him: unaware by the call to serve as labor minister in a province niaghe es for its industrial relations strife. “The ministry I'm gejng into is a complex ministry,” said Segarty, who worked as a heavy duty mechanic and was a member of the International Woodworkers of America union until his election to the legislature in 1979. He said his experience in the forest industry woyld help him in his new job. “I certainly have a good idea of what it's like in the work place,” he said. “I have no pre-set ideas of what should be done ahd what shouldn't be done.” Segarty said he wants to sit down and talk to people in government, industry and the labor movement to discuss new ideas. McClelland admitted his previous job is tough. “Anybody that inherits labor in British Columbia has a handful,” he said. Recent statements from the labor movement suggest, however, that “people are beginning to seek new opportunities for co-operation and consultation. I think from that point of view Terry comes in at a good time.” Premier Bill Bennett said “Terry Segarty is ideal for the post. He has an understanding of the difficulties that the private sector workers are going through.” The premier said he expects the new labor minister to help with the skill training, ptogram currently under négotiation with the federal government.

If the local school board said it needs more money to protect education quality, 53 per cent said they'd be willing to pay, 40 per cent said they weren't and seven per cent couldn't say.

Delta board deep in red VANCOUVER (CP) — Delta school board has been offered $113,000 by the pro- vineial government to help offset its 1984 budget deficit of $635,321, and board of. ficials are continuing to meet with Edueation Ministry of. ficials today to find more ways of reducing the deficit. School board chairman Mary Bittroff said Tuesday it will be at least “three or four more days” before the board knows the final deficit figure, or whether the $300,000 pen- alty levied by Education Minister Jack Heinrich for incurring the deficit will be reduced. But that “wait-and-see” at- titude did not go over well Tuesday night with 200 an- gry Delta teachers and par- ents who crowded into a local secondary school auditorium to question board officials during a regular school board meeting. Although most of the ques. tions demanded the board take some sort of action against the provincial gov. ernment, Bittroff pleaded for patience and said it would “not be fair” if the board made statements about the financing problem while it was meeting with govern ment officials. from this ad Still here isn’t it?

Answers like that brought catealls and derisive shouts from the partisan crowd. The association submitted a brief to the board during the meeting, calling on it to submit this year’s budget based on 1981 service levels, coridemn Heinrich for impos ing the $300,000 penalty, and develop strategies for pres. suring the provincial gov. ernment to improve educa. tion financing. The crowd was not told of the $113,000 grant, which was offered by the govern ment for the French immer. sion program. School board secretary treasurer Miles Adam said after the meeting the gov ernment would allow the funds to be used to help off-’ set the deficit because ade. quate financing levels for Delta's French immersion program already exist, and that the board would prob- ably apply the grant to the deficit. Walter Davidson, Social Credit legislative member for Delta, criticized the board for what he called high admin istrative costs. In an inter view in Victoria, Davidson said the number of staff has increased 400 per cent during the last five to seven years. Meanwhile, three other school boards’ budgets are expected to be missing from Heinrich’s desk Thursday when the deadline passes for submitting budgets within government restraint limits. Burnaby trustees voted to join Vancouver board in a legal challenge of the dead. line. Courtenay distriet will sub- mit a budget only after they meet with Heinrich to diseuss their concerns.
