feading of what Beta Sigma Phi means
toher.

Aprilshows extremes

By CasNews Staff

Record snowfall and~high tem-
peratures highlighted the weather in
April, according to the Castlegar
Weather Office's monthly summary.

Temperatures were above normal
for the month and new record highs
were observed on the 18th and 30th

April began with one last bout of
winter weather. A record 10.8 cen-
timetres of snow fell on April 1 and
slight amounts were recorded through
April 3

By the end of the first week, con-
ditions had turned to a more typical
spring pattern. A ridge of high
pressure allowed above normal
amounts of sunshine although a few
Pacifi¢ disturbances provided rain
showers.

The weather office says the amount
of rainfall was slightly below average,
but when combined with the record
amount of snow, the total
precipitation was slightly greater than
normal.

A group of Northwest Baptist
Theological College students and Dr
Larry Perkins were guests at Calvary
Baptist Church last Friday evening.

The musical students brought to the
congregation an hour of inspiring
singing. Perkins gave an appropriate
message which asked the question,
“What can I do in the service of the
Lord?”

The students continue on their 42-

ches. Perkins flew back to Vancouver
Saturday afternoon.

Local logger and NDP hopeful
Corky Evans told a meeting last week
in Slocan that he sees many ways to

Economic Development Commission,
whicli has called for submissions trom
valley residents

Evans said the valley can be
developed in competition with areas
like the Okanagan, or as a “place that
is unique, a place like no other place:
where we can seck to develop our
uniqueness to generate wealth.

The former regional district director
said characteristics of the valley can be
seen as disadvantages, or with a dif
ferent viewpoint, as advantages

He said transportation can also be

tor an extended visit,"’ he said

He said it's also important to
examine the ef fects on other areas such
as the Okanagan which are connected
to highways that increase the export of
raw products like logs, to take to the
Lower Mainland for processing.

Evans said there are Many ways to

He said local private timber owners
could form a New Brunswick-style

GREAT TASTE

smoke pollution problém in the valley
can be alleviated by mixing hog fuel
with waste newsprint from Nelson and
Castlegar. The result would be a
smokeless fire which could be used to
generate power for the mills

Evans said the woods economy
could also be diversified, and money
kept in the valley,
means such as bringing in hundreds of
thousands of dollars annually by
establishing and tarming cedar trees on
flood plains which are unsuitable for
agriculture or housing and by keeping
some of the $10 million income ot
loggers and truckers in the valley by in
creasing credit union services for con
tractors. in logging and tfee=planting,
as well as establishing fuel depots and
heavy equipment repair services
