It's inevitable that at
some time or other you will
fall in powder or crusty snow.
It happens to the best of
skiers.

An important rule to™
follow is: relax and don't
panic. Becoming stiff or pan-
icking can result in injury.

When your feet are
twisted on your skis or your
skis are crossed or entangled,
release yourself from your
bindings, then use your poles
to get out of the snow. Put
your skis back on once you're
standing.

After falling on hills,
position yourself to lean into
the hill before pushing your-
self up with poles.

By practicing this tech-
nique a few times before
skiing, either at home or on
the trail, you'll accustom

. yourself to the procedure,

Ski Walking
Used on the flats and on
gradual uphills, ski walking is
the most elementary form of
cross country ski technique.
Arms and legs move as if
you're walking, except that
you glide a few feet with each
step you take. By bending
slightly at the knees and
keeping your weight over the
centre of gravity, you can ski
walk up gradual hills.
Changing Direction

Place your skis parallel
to each. other on a flat
surface. Your right pole
should stick ‘in: the snow
behind your left ski's tail,

DS

with left pole behind the left
ski's tip.

With body weight sup-
ported by the left ski and by
both poles, rotate the weight-
less right ski 180 degrees so
that it is parallel to the left
ski but pointed in the oppo-
site direction.

Now, -by placing your
body weight on the right ski
and right pole, bring the left
ski and pole around parallel
to the right ski and pole.

By reversing this pro-
cess you can turn the other

Ministerial discusses
pro-life controversy

By TED BRISTOW
Pro-life issues dominat-

eda meeting of the Castlegar

Ministerial held last week in
the United Church, |
The mini ad

ity to offer counselling to ~

-those considering abortion,

and also to challenge the
selfish and irresponsible at-
titudes that lead to unwanted

concern over the large num:
ber of ‘abortions, and the
casual attitude toward life
which lies behind these ‘fig-
ures. ;

The meeting expressed
its concern for the medical
profession who must often
make decisions in these dif-
ficult matters, and for the

+ potential mothers who need

support to think through the
implications of the. choices
which face them.

It was agreed that
churches have a responsibil-

and the ter-
mination of such pregnancies.

Although it was recog-
nized that churches must not
try tolegislate their views on
everyone, it was felt more
should be done to proclaim
that life is precious before
God and man.

The ministerial estab-

“lished a committee, headed

by Lowell Kindschy of St.
Peter Lutheran Church, to
explore ways to bring these
matters before the people of
this area.
