Other rec News from right) places lapel pin on Daphne Angus, one of five West Kootenay residents to receive the Air Canada/Castlegar News Heart Five awarded certificates By CasNews Staff Five West Kootenay residents have been recognized for their outstanding community service with an Air Canada/Castlegar News Heart of Gold award. Castlegar News publisher Burt Campbell awarded Joanne Baker and Paul Samsonoff of Castlegar, Clarissa “Ma” Morris of Robson, Daphne Angus of Slocan Park and Walter Siemens of Trail with special certi ficates and lapel pins in a ceremony Friday morning. The five were the first to receive the awards in the West Kootenay. But they won't be the last. Nomin- ations for the heart of gold awards will be accepted until the end of July. Each nomination will be forwarded to a provincial panel of judges which will select provincial winners. Joanne Baker was nominated for her involvement in the Girl Guides. As well, she was instrumental in establishing the Castlegar co-opera tive housing and is chairman of the parent group at Woodland Park elementary school. Paul Samsonoff is well-known for his contribution to choral singing, in particular the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ's Union of Youth choir. Daphne Angus has been credited with making birthday cakes for half the residents of the Slocan Valley. And in the event of a death, she has lent moral support and food. Clarissa Morris raised seven of her DEFENCE POLICY Soviets admit errors By ROBERT EVANS uter to MOSCOW — Senior Soviet military and political officials said Saturday that errors in formulating defence and foreign policy over the past two decades often led to unnecessary confrontation with the West. The officials, ranging from Deputy Foreign Minister Yuli Vorontsov to the armed forces chief of staff, Marshal Sergei Akhromeyev, told a news conference the errors included dogmatism and a lack of openness in decision-making. “In diplomacy, we allowed ourselves to be carried away by polemics; we placed a high value on scoring polemical, propaganda points, and often propaganda stood in the way of real work,” Vorontsov said. “In the 1970s and the first half of the 1980s, we answered too directly to the arms race which the West unleashed,” Akhromeyev said in a clear reference to the Soviet military buildup of the period. in “Probably we should have taken more of an initiative in trying to find political means to respond to the constant increase in the military budget of the United States. Vadim Zagladin, deputy head of the international department of the Communist Party Central Com. mittee, said foreign policy under the predecessors of leader Mikhail Gorbachev had lacked conceptual logic. “While we rejected nuclear war and struggled to prevent it, we nevertheless based our policy on the possibility of winning one,” Zagladin told the news conference — one in a series before the Soviet Com munist party conference begins June 28. Foreign policy is to be discussed at the week-long conference called by Gorbachev to give a fresh impulse his perestroika program for radical reformation of Soviet society. Over the past few weeks, the once-taboo area has been the subject of increasingly critical study in the Soviet media by political commentators and historians. Some have argued that Soviet behavior both at home and abroad and the long-closed nature of Soviet society provided the West with good reason to mistrust offers of co-operation coming from the Kremlin. But participants in Saturday's news conference generally,insisted that Soviet intentions were always good and that mistakes were largely in elaboration, emphasis and presentation of policy. And Akhromeyev said many western leaders had promoted “ill-intentioned propaganda” for many years alleging that the Soviet Union presented a military threat and enjoyed military superiority over the non-Communist world. Genrikh Borovik, a journalist and head of the Soviet Peace Committee, said a major Soviet mistake in the past was “the total lack of openness in the making of foreign policy decisions . “We often ignored public opinion aborad, or failed to take it into consideration, and we acted on the assumption that we had a monopoly on the truth,” he declared Under Gorbachev's “new thinking” on foreign policy, Borovik added, “we are moving from monologue to dialogue.” nts include (from left) Paul Samsonoff, Joanne Baker, Clarissa “Ma” Morris and (far right) Walter Siemens.

Anti-abortion relay walk starts PRINCE RUPERT (CP) — An anti-abortion group has begun a walking relay to promote its demand for stringent controls on abortions. A similar walk is planned to begin Aug. 1 in St. John’s, Nfid., said Genevieve Ring of Kamloops, nation- al co-ordinator for the relay. About 60 people gathered in the rain in this north-coastal British Col- umbia city Thursday to begin the relay. Each participant expects to walk about eight kilometres. The group that left Prince Rupert expected to meet a similar group from Kitimat on Saturday in Terrace, 140 kilometres west of here on Highway 16. Participants want the new law to permit abortions only for pregnan- cies where the fetus cannot survive and the mother's life is threatened, said Maureen Sullivan, president of the Prince Rupert Pro-Life Associa- tion. Last January, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled the federal abortion law was unconstitutional. The law had required that abortions be ap. proved by a hospital medical com- mittee. Sov iets escalate spy battle MOSCOW (CP-REUTERS-AP) — Moscow declared eight more Cana- dians personae non gratae Saturday and said it was withdrawing 25 Soviet staff from the Canadian Em- bassy in Moscow in response to Can- ada’s latest expulsions of Soviet dip- lomats. The official Soviet news agency Tass said Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Bessmertnykh summoned Canadian Ambassador Vernon Tur- ner to the Fereign Ministry and told him that defence attache Larry Bower was expelled for activites in- compatible with his diplomatic duties. In addition, Turner was told that seven Canadian diplomats formerly in Moscow would not be welcome back. Saturday's Soviet action marked another major escalation of the battle over spying charges between Canada and the Soviet Union. Tass said Bessmertnykh told Tur- ner that the Mulroney government had “resorted to a new hostile action” by expelling the senior Soviet mili- tary attache, Col. Grigori Stepan- ovich Roublev, from Ottawa and bar- ring other Soviet diplomats from re- turning. In all, Canada has expelled or barred 19 Soviet diplomats. Canada had accused the Soviets of trying to penetrate the Canadian security service and engaging in commercial and military espionage from Ottawa and Montreal, charges the Soviets denied. External Affairs Minister Joe Clark w that crippling effect on the Canadian mission in Moscow. Soviet authori- ‘ ties pulled out all 260 Soviet employ- ees from the U.S. Embassy in Moscow on Oct. 22, 1986, in retal- iation for U.S. expulsions of Soviet diplomats. The pullout forced American dip- lomats to do the cooking, cleaning, driving, translating and answering phones at the Moscow embassy and U.S. consulate in Leningrad. The Tass announcement did not make’ clear whether Canada could replace the 25 Soviets withdrawn. The Tass dispatch accused Bowen of “engaging in activity that does not correspond to his official status,” diplomatic jargon for spying. Tass said the Soviet Union rejects spying charges levelled against Sov- iets in Canada as “ungrounded.” Soviets welcomed MONTREAL (CP) — The recent spy scandal that has chilled relations between Canada and the Soviet Union failed to dampen the en- thusiasm of Canadian youths who welcomed a delegation of visiting Soviet students Friday. The 12 students are to take part in a peace mission that will take them across Canada by train for two w' eks with 10 Canadian youths. The Canadians, who greeted the i ion at Mirabel International eight Soviets had been expelled and nine others previously assigned to Canada barred from returning. The Soviets retaliated the next day, ex- pelling two Canadian diplomats from the Soviet Union and barring three others from returning. OFFICIAL BARRED Clark then kicked out the senior military attache at the Soviet Emb- assy in Ottawa and barred a former second secretary from returning. Commenting Saturday on Canada's action Thursday, Tass said; “Unfor- tunately, they didn’t heed our advice to display a feeling of responsibility and realism or our warning that if the Canadian side moved on to further aggravating the situation, it could expect immediate further retaliatory measures.” The Kremlin's withdrawal of 25 of its 39 Soviet workers could have a Tourist alert VANCOUVER (CP) — Tourist Alert issued Saturday by the RCMP.

By TREVOR LAUTENS In the Vancouver Sun As every good fiction writer or painter or alert person in the street knows it's the detail that betrays. | Msgr. John Monaghan of Nelson, an 80-year old priest was sentenced the other day to four years in prison on 14 charges of indecent assault and three charges of sexual assault. He pleaded guilty. Those were only the tip of what the Crown prosecutor called “hundreds—and hundreds” of incidents involving his young female parishoners aged six to 19 over a 34-year-period, as reported by the Sun's excellent court specialist Larry Still. What, in fact had he done? Most of the incidents involved what might be called deep bum patting. Fondling. Touching private parts. In the coarse phrase, feeling up girls. That's reprehensible conduct, all right. But as Judge Stewart Enderton noted, there was no violence, no threats, no masturbation, no oral sex, no intercourse. So what do we have here? I'd say that these were acts of a silly male adolescent of pre-adolescent who was ignorant of and curious about the female body, and got immature sexual titillation from feeling around it. That's exactly how I'd define the sexuality — not the sexual practices of most priests. A shrewd priest well knows the implications of sexuality, but for many of them (consider Msgr. Monaghan's genera tion) the first-hand knowledge probably goes no further than the playground gropings of kids, or staring at sister. For this, a man — beloved, even called saintly — goes to prison for four years? Look again at that list of Judge Enderton’s. None of the touchy-feely developed into truly disgusting sexual exploitation of children. The man was naive, sexually hardly more than a child himself. Four years for Msgr. Monaghan? We have, after all a former prime minister of this country who wasn’t above the occasional bum-pat of women. We've sentenced him to nothing worse than living in Ottawa and having to run a disorderly party of malcontents. So what about the punishment meted to Msgr. Monaghan? It exaggerates the seriousness of his crime. I'm not saying that feeling girls is no big deal. I'm saying that sexual ideology has blown it into a bigger deal than it is — a corollary of our age’s blowing sex into a bigger deal than it is.

Bell workers walk out OTTAWA (CP) — Local Bell Canada technicians and operators remained off the job Saturday after joining their counterparts around Ontario and in Montreal two days before a Monday strike deadline. In Ottawa, about 1,000 local technicians and operators began their strike at 6 p.m. Friday, several hours after similar Ontario walkouts in Cornwall, Toronto, London and Windsor, and in Montreal About 19,000 Bell workers in Ontario, Quebec and part of the Northwest Territories are in a legal position to strike. Panties start fire WEST JORDAN, UTAH (AP) — A woman following a newspaper story's advice to yeast-infection sufferers tossed her underpants in the microwave and sparked a fire, authorities said, Firefighters rushed to the woman's home in the south Salt Lake County community of West Jordan and quickly extinguished the flames, but not before the microwave oven was destroyed and a nearby wall scorched, said County Fire Chief Don Berry. Berry said when the embarrassed woman’explained how the fire started, firefighters were hard-pressed not to laugh. “It's one of those things that: ‘Just when you think you've seen everything .. .’" Berry said. Stories called ‘rubbish’ LONDON (REUTER) — Princess Anne's husband Mark Phillips denied British newspaper reports he secretly spent the night at the same hotel as a Canadian divorcee and shared intimate dinners with her. Phillips, 39, told reporters at London airport after a working visit to Canada: “ The reports last Sunday linked his name with public relations consultant Kathy Birks, 44, whose company works for Phillips. Palestinians protest JERUSALEM (AP) — Troops shot and wounded a Palestinian in the Israeli-occupied West Bank on Saturday, and dozens of police vehicles and policemen in riot gear patrolled Arab East Jerusalem to quell Palestinian protests. A Palestinian was lightly wounded in the leg in the West Bank town of Nablus when soldiers opened fire to disperse protesters in the city’s casbah, or Arab bazaar, the army said. Four other Arabs were treated for tear gas inhalation. On Fritlay in Nablus, a Jewish settler opened fire on a crowd of Muslim worshippers who stoned his car. The settler wounded seven people, two of them eight-year-old boys. Iraq takes islands BAGHDAD (REUTER) — Iraq said it recaptured the oil-rich Majnoon Islands from Iran on Saturday, dealing Iranian troops their third major defeat in as many months. In a tacit admission of defeat, Iran said its troops were forced back to new defensive positions by chemical attacks. An Iraqi High C said elite Pr Guards stormed Iranian positions in the marshlands as the 8rd Army Corps hit Iranian troops dug in between the oilfield and the border. The man-made islands northeast of the Iraqi port of Basra sit atop one of the world's biggest oilfields, straddling the border between Iran and Iraq. Soldiers arrested MANILA (AP) — Philippine troops arrested three soldiers loyal to deposed president Ferdinand Marcos in a raid at dawn Saturday and found a plan to attack the capital's international airport, police said. Meanwhile, newspapers reported the government wants Marcos to come back from exile to face trial on charges he stole billions of dollars worth of government funds. Police Lt.-Col. Romeo Maganto said the soldiers apprehended in an apartment in Manila’s Tondo slum district belonged to a group led by former li Jonel Reynaldo C: who was involved in coup attempts against President Corazon Aquino’s government. Eight killed in clash CALCUTTA, INDIA (REUTER) — More than 30,000 Hindus and Muslims clashed over worship rights to a shrine, killing eight people and injuring about 100 in India’s West Bengal state, police said on Saturday. Police sealed off the Berhampore area, about 200 kilometres north of Calcutta, after Friday's riot. Hindus claimed the Katara Mosque was not a mosque but a temple and threatened to take over the building. The victims’ trauma? Trauma has been swollen into the most pretentious word of the pop-psychol- ogy lexicon. Anyone can invent — or get rid of — “lifelong trauma” on the spot. The caretaker at my school — beloved by the kids — had his hands down the front of my pants at a vulnerable moment when I was 10. That traumatized me? “lifelong?” Only if I had let it and I didn't. No, this is what happened: Msgr. Monaghan was caught in the crosshairs of revengeful feminism and virulent anti-Catholicism. Those two forces are running freely on the streets of British Columbia these days. Both involve, at bottom, hatred. More significantly, they are socially tolerated hatred — approved hatred. Canada is a colonial country, intellectually and otherwise dependent, and B.C. is the heattland of that colonyhood. One of the marks of such societies is that the colonials, in their feverish yearning for metropolitanism, slurp up the latest modes from more established areas with unthinking eagerness without doing the groundwork. British Columbians don't produce sophistication — they steal it. So feminism, generated by the East Coast elites, is swallowed whole in B.C. and disgorged in its most excited form. The cry “Take back the night!” has pfobably been heard — in Osoyoos. (Sure, take it back. By the way, from whom?) Anti-clericalism, the rage against the priest bearing incense and tradition, has to be total, a clear-cut, or our provincial noses would be out of joint. i Thus B.C., with little domestic tradition as a counterweight, is a fine home for a sub-intellectual class that has successfully created a skewed baseline of public awareness —so that, for example, women who may never have read the lesbian Susan Brown- miller have absorbed her thesis th: Il male-female intercourse, even the married kind is, well, more or less rape. And, by the way, what could be more male than the Catholic hierarchy? And therefore what offers more prospect for the joys of humiliation? I began — a long time ago, you may think — by Stating that it's the detail that betrays. And in the Monaghan case, the detail — the “little” matter that led sloggingly to these last few paragraphs — is the handcuffs. Msgr. Monaghan was handcuffed in court after sentence was imposed and led away. Routine, no doubt. But was there no one moved to say: “Let's not do this. He's not going to leap over the dock, or shoot holes in the ceiling?” You need to handcuff an 80-year-old man? An 80-year-old priest, with a pacemaker? Yes, you do — if the real motive fuelled by the angries, the permanent malcontents of B.C., is humiliation. School district runs up deficit By CasNews Staff As the school year comes to a close, the Castlegar school board finds itself with a $25,000 deficit. The board will be forced to carry the deficit into next year's budget and is hoping the Ministry of Educa- tion will bail it out. “At this time no response has been received from the Ministry of Educa tion, regarding my request for an approved deficit,” secretary-treas- urer John Dascher said at this week’ board meeting. Expenses approved by the minis- try are funded 84 per cent, while the remaining 16 per cent will have to come from local taxes. Dascher said provincial funding will probably come after the paper- work has been completed. “It is assumed the ministry is waiting until the audited statements have been filed,” he said. Schools superintendent Terry Wayling says there are two valid reasons why the district ran over budget in the 1987/88 school year. He said two severely handicapped students entered the district after the budget had been submitted. Two teachers’ aides were hited for thé students, contributing to the over run. As well, he noted: “Our sick leave cost has far exceeded what we BIG WINNERS . . . James Skwarok (left) cap- tured both the K.T. and R.E.

CosNews Photos by Bonne Morgen Class of '88 unique Editor's note: Following is the valedictory address given by Derek |Ball at Saturday's Stanley Hum. phries secondary school graduation ceremony. By DEREK BALL My fellow grads, parents, teachers and guests: Three weeks ago I came to school and a friend approached me and said, “Congratulations, you're class valedictorian!” I said “Great! . . . What does that mean?” It means that I address everyone here today and try to communciate some of the things that are racing around our heads today. It means I have to stand up and sweat for another four minutes and 40 seconds (39, 38, 37... .). My first thought was to look closer at this strange animal who is an SH graduate of ‘88. I thought that if I could get a feel for what an average grad is like, I could express their feelings better. The only thing that.I could find was in their many differences. The members of this year’s class are all so incredibly unique from one another. There is no single one like any other. So now my classmates are thinking “Cool . . . he’s comparing us to snowflakes.” Maybe I am. We are entering a world that is far more uncertain and perhaps a little scarier than that of our parents. Our unique qualities, our individuality is one of the great things that we will bring into the world to allow us to succeed. We will also take the gifts and lessons that we have been given by so many others. Our teachers have given us homework, boredom, worry, punishment and (you didn’t hear this from me( maybe even knowledge and strength. From each other we have the friendships and memories that will last a lifetime. This year we learned that life really is only as good as we make it and we have had some really good times. Hopefully, there will always be more in our future. You, our families, have raised us, disciplined us, taught us what is right and wrong, shaped us and helped us in our failures and triumphs. So the way I figured this, whenever we screw up we can hold you responsible. When we fail French or dent your car it's your fault. Really, where would we be without our parents? What would we do? I would never make my bed again and we'd all proably stay out a lot later. We'd also pay rent, forget our appointments and struggle without your guidance and love. How do we repay the people who have shown us to walk? We can show them how fast we can run and try not to stumble. I know a lot of parents still see us as toddlers at their feet, but as far as I know none o.f our class still DEREK BALL . . Students snowflakes? wears diapers. So much has changed! We are so far from where we began and I can't help but wonder where the time has gone. There seems to be a 12-year blur in my school career. I remember taking nap time in kindergarten and the next thing I know I'm staring blankly at an Algebra 12 provincial. Through a lot of hard work and with a lot of support we have all made it here today. We have changed a lot but do these diplomas mean we are suddenly adults? I hope not. There is a J.C. song that goes: “Hold onto it as long as you can, changes come around real soon make us women and men.” hope we can all keep the spirit and energy of our past years and never stop doing things and learning things. In closing I'd like to ask the grads to take the very best of care tonight. We all want to get rid of these hot gowns, and be out celebrating. But who here would look forward to burying one of our friends after this evening? Best of luck. Thanks. AWARDS continued trom front pege The C.U.P.E.
