Photos, A2 CP Rail spokesman Don Bower said five rail cars jumped the track, but all were left standing. Bower said no one was injured in the derailment, The cars were part of a train pulling more than 40 rail cars. The derailed cars came within seven metres of the Mitchell Supply building, which is located adjacent to the track. However, Bower said there was no danger of the cars crashing into the building. “It's a relatively low speed situ ation se I don't think that would be a concern,” he said. Board rejects abortion film By BONNE MORGAN Staff Writer Castlegar school board will remain neutral on the controversial topic of abortion. Trustees at an education com. mittee meeting Monday turned down an invitation from the Castlegar Right to Life group for district staff to view a 45-minute slide presentation on abor. tion. In a letter to the board, the Right to Life group said information on abortion and alternatives should be a required part of the new Family Life education program at Stanley Humph- ries secondary school. “The issue of what to do about un. wanted pregnancies, alternatives to abortion is relegated to an optional topic. This‘ought not be," spokesman June Lepsoe said in the letter. “If the issue is simply not dealt with at school... our young women are likely to be guided by popular ignor- _CosNewsPhoto by Bonne Morgen ance in this critical area.” Superintendent of schools Terry Wayling drafted a letter following Monday's meeting informing the Right to Life group that the board has decided it would be “inappropriate to endorse or advertise” the film. “This is a very stormy political issue and I feel for us to be even considering it is not within reality,” trustee Rick Pongracz said at the meeting. Wayling suggested it would be more appropriate to circulate a notice throughout the school district ad- vertising a public presentation of the film. But trustees disagreed to any in- direct show of support for the film. “I disagree. No way,” said trustee Ed Conroy. SHSS principal Gordon Shead sald though there “some track dam age.” “The cause is under investigation,” he said in a telephone interview from his Vancouver office CP Rail crews worked night Tuesday to clear the rail cars and repair the track, The line was repaired by this morning ACP Rail worker at the scene said the derailment did not affect train traffic because an alternate line was used.

School passports concern principal By CasNews Staff The principal of Stanley Humph rather than given to students directly. Only provincially-approved courses are covered by the Passport to Education program. Students taking locally developed courses, such as Russian and First Aid 9 and 10, will not be able to use those marks to get program money. Effort, work habits and other factors such as citizenship or school/ community involvement will count for one-third of the selection. Teachers at Stanley Humphries have yet to find an accurate way of weighing work habits and citizenship. Money awarded by the program is scaled, with Grade 9 students receiving $125; Grade 10s, $175; Grade 11s, $225; and Grade 12s $275. Not all of the trustees were happy about the program either. Rick Pongracz said B.C. univer. sities already don’t have enough room for students and said he is concerned with more students receiving scholar. ship money. ries secondary school says he is concerned with the Ministry of Edu. cation’s new Passport to Education program. Gordon Shead said so far teachers at Stanley Humphries have shown “mixed reactions” to the program. The Passport to Education pro- gram, in which high school students could receive as much as $800 towards their post-secondary education was discussed at the Castlegar school board’s education committee meeting Monday. The program is to be implemented this year and gives students “credi for academic achievement, effort and citizenship. The credits can be redeemed by students who attend a post-secondary institution within five years after graduation. Only those students within the top 30 per cent of their grade will receive credits for the program money, says “If you are going to increase (the superintendent of schools Terry Way- number of students receiving money) ling. where are they going to go?” he asked Wayling also said he thought t at the committee meeting. money associated with the credits Mickey Kinakin said he is “dis- would be “debited” from tuition costs gusted” with the program. Greenpeace seeks dioxin warning VANCOUVER (CP) — The Green. peace Foundation says people should be warned not to eat seafood caught near pulp mills because dioxins were found by a mill outfall site on Van- couver Island. But federal Fisheries Department spokesman Mike Nassichuk said Tues day the discovery of dioxins near pulp mills “should no longer be any great surprise.” Greenpeace spokesman Renate Kroesa said a Swedish laboratory test showed dioxins in sediment taken by Greenpeace last September near Mac- Millan Bloedel’s Harmac pulp mill near Nanaimo. But MacMillan Bloedel spokesman Otto Forgacs said the environmental group had not found dioxins in seafood. for the food chain are frightening,” Kroesa told a news conference. “We can now be sure that dioxins are in crabs, clams and non-migratory fish in the vicinity of pulp mills. People should be warned not to eat seafood caught in the vicinity of pulp mill Nassichuk pointed to a U.S. En- vironmental Protection Agency study last year that confirmed dioxins have been detected in the liquid waste of five U.S. pulp mills, as well as in downriver trout. But Nassichuk also said it would be premature for the public to be concerned about eating seafood near pulp mills. He noted the Greenpeace warning was based on a single sampl Greenpeace said among the di IN TRAINING . . . Julia Havdale prepares for her one-kilometre run in the Olympic Torch.Relay Race Rosen's dream still alive By BONNE MORGAN Staff Writer Lance Rosen's dreams of carrying the Olympic torch did not die when the Castlegar teenager was struck and killed by a car on the Lower Mainland last fall. Instead, a friend of the family will hoist the Olympic torch and run Rosen's one kilometre through Montrose on Feb. 1. Julia Havdale, who works as a bartender at the Marlane Hotel, is said she has known Rosen's parents, although she does run Diane and Randy MeNee, for a long time and the decision to take on the run “just came about through everyday conversation.” Rosen had been séleeted to run on the 77th day of the 88-day cross. country torch run. “I haven't been running much lately,” Havdale admits. She hurt her back running 10 months ago, so most of her training comprised of weight lifting, “once or that by working out at Hooter’s Fitness Parlour CosNewsPhote by Bonne Morgor twice a week” for a “couple of miles.” Also, Havdale says the recent weather has prevented her from running. But she says the one-kilo metre run shouldn't be any trouble. “There should be no problem,” Havdale says, adding that she used to run 16 kilometres at a time before she hurt her back. Havdale, who has been ftunning “off and on” for about eight years, says she loves running. “It gets you high.” “The implications of these findings continued on pege A?

The students, in Grades 9 to 11, will leave for the trip to Moscow and Leningrad March and return on April 5 Some of the include visits to museums, art gi leries, Lenin's Tomb, the Kremlin, Soviet schools, stores, theatres, and possibly a circus.
