Prior to the hearing, Sullivan met with Grade 11 and 12 students at SHSS to hear their suggestions regarding education. Sullivan heard a steady stream of complaints ranging from the use of American textbooks to the value of provincewide exams. Students emphasized that the 50 per cent overall value of the exams creates an excessive stress burden on the student. Students explained that only half of their mark is based on tests and assignments that span an entire school year, while the other half is based strictly on the results of the provincial exams. One student insisted that Sullivan would probably not listen to students since teachers complaints regarding Bill 20 were being ignored. Again, Sullivan emphasized his neutraility regarding Bill 20. He said his primary responsibility is to review the dis of B.C. andr changes based on submissions at hearings, but not to involve the commission in political controversy. \V7 ry B.B.Q.

Homowners will be hit with inereases in both re- gional district and school taxes. As well, the change in the provincial homeowner grant increases the minimum tax payable by most home- owners from $200 to $3650, and for senior citizens and other qualified homeowners from $1 to $100. “The overall tax situation will be a little higher,” Cal- derbank said. Meanwhile, taxes for the north end sewer system will increase slightly, from $28,000 last year to about $35,000 in 1987. However, that is still lower than the 1985 tax figure of $43,000. South end sewer taxes will remain virtually unchanged at $129,010 this year com- pared to $130,000 in 1986. Following is a breakdown of the budget, comparing this year’s figures with 1986. Government Services The total budget for this category is up slightly — by about $880. It totals $609,200. This section includes council expenses, administration, building maintenance, grants and election costs. The single largest decrease is in the area of adminis- tration, which drops nearly $43,000 to $183,820, or 19 per cent. Grants drop from $12,500 to $8,400. ATTENTION Council costs are up $8,680 or 15 per cent to $67,750. Building maintenance and in- surance is also up signifi- cantly to $63,500, a $26,000 increase over 1986. Services This budget increased by 5,2 per cent or about $35,000 to $694,000. The largest chunk of funding is for polic- ing — $477,970. That's. up Mere than $35,000 or eight per cent from 1986, Also included in this sec- tion is fire protection, which at nearly $153,000 is about the same as last year, build- ing inspection and licensing ($48,000) and animal control (39,000). Transportation Services This is the largest, single category in the budget at $937,300. It is up only slightly — about $1,300 or less than one per cent — from 1986. However, that is deceptive because the city's portion of the transit system, which amounted to $7,500 in last year’s budget, is now being paid through the regional district. The $356,585 earmarked for roads is a $9,500 increase from 1986. Environmental Health This includes garbage col- lection, which is increasing by $9,000 or 7.7 per cent to $128,000, and cemetery costs, which are up $6,750 or 31 per cent to $28,500. Environmental Development This category is down for the second time in as many years, dropping more than $9,000 to $98,300. The largest single expense in this cate- gory is for planning, which at $57,400 is down $6,700 or 10.4 per cent from last year. TRAIL Customers Tuesday, May 12 The following channel changes will be made: Chan. 2 C.B.C. French The residential rehabilita- tion program is also down for the second year in succes- sion; this time to only $4,000 from $10,500 a year ago and $13,000 in 1985. However, the city’s share of the Castlegar and District Development Board has more than doubled from $10,400 in 1986 to $22,000 this year. The city dropped $7,500 it had earmarked for promotion. The Castlegar Chamber of Commerce grant remains the same at $14,969. Recreational and Cultural Services This part of the budget is down nearly $2,000 to $218,500. The largest chunk of money goes for parks — $105,960. That is a drop of $7,500 from last year. The library is also included in this category and the city's share will rise to $95,350, up 2.3 per cent or about $2,200 from 1 Funds for the two pools will increase by $2,000 to a total of $3,000, while money for Kinnaird Hall will be in- creased by $900 to $13,700. This category includes things like the city’s debt payments — totalling $339,190 this year, down about $14,000 from 1986. The utility frontage tax is up by $6,000 to $329,000, while transfers to the reserve fund are also up significantly to $173,000. That compares to just $40,000 the city set aside in its reserve fund last year. The city's capital works program is also a lot larger this year, totalling $655,000, of the capital projects plan- ned for 1987 will be published in Sunday's CasNews. New Démécrats' top Liberals HALIFAX (CP) — The federal New Democratic Party has pulled marginally ahead of the Liberals to take first place in a national opin. ion poll released today by Angus Reid Associates. In its best showing sihce the party was created in 1961, the NDP received the support of 37 per cent of de- cided voters across Canada, slightly better than the Lib- erals, who slipped six points to 36 per cent. The Conservatives, at 25 per cent, to trail both opposition parties but were up slightly from their record low of 23 per cent in February and March. The survey of 1,677 adults, published by Southam News, was conducted over a five: day period ending Monday.

It’s not clear who made the initial suggestion, but with Hansen taking the day off, a friendly touch football game was proposed between his loyal (and glowingly fit) crew and the accompanying (and wheezingly unfit) media pack. Whatever and whoever, it was a bad idea because before the game was ove, two television crews had been knocked on to the disabled list. Rogers Cablevision lost two of its three-man crew, Sheldon Reisler going down with a broken leg and Ron Fischer with a sprained ankle. CKVU lost reporter Brent verely dislocated shoulder. ting day that thé mext day, Thursday, with a full slate of Hansen tour activities resumed, the two television stations had to patch and pirate, pooling the one healthy survivor each of them had to make up a single crew that covered for both companies.

Egg masses containing 150 to 300 eggs each, covered with a silvery-brown protective substance, are found ringed around small twigs during fall and winter months. Early spring larvae can also be readily removed by clipping and burning; larvae are often found clustered together while feeding on opening buds and developing foliage or on the sunny side of trunks or main branches while resting or moulting.
