16A Premier Bill Bennett and his cabinet colleagues may get a } heated reception at their sched- ‘ uled cabinet meeting June 2 in ; Nelson. The Save Our University Committee, comprised of busi- ness, labor and service clubs in the southern Interior, has ‘called for citizen involvement in a demonstration to protest the closure of Notre Dame Uni- versity, In a press releasé Friday, the committee said mformation booths have already been set up in the three communities of Nelson, Trail and Castlegar to : urge people to sand lobby cards to the premier and sign peti- + tions demanding the creation of : a fourth public university for : the Interior with the first CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, May 26, 1977 Protesting Notre Dame University Closure campus to be located in Nelson by this fall.

Part of the problem, as seen by the committee, is the method of funding public uni- versities. The Universities Council of B.C. is given a bulk sum to allocate to the three public universities of SFU, U. Vie and UBC, The committee says of $172 million allocated for uni- versity education this year, only three million was ear- marked for post-secondary edu- cation in the Interior, “Of the three million,” says the committee, “one million was divided up among the three coastal universities to study | what should be done about In- terior education, “One million is being used to close NDU, to purchase assets, to pay severance costs to faculty and other costs. This leaves‘only one million for edu- cational programs, not just in Nelson, but throughout the In- terior,” said the release. The conimittee says a statement by NDU president Rowland Grant that “we have faited in our talks with the government to guarantee a- structure will be in place when NDU closes” is the strongest indication they have of the un- certain position of the univers- ity. “Without a structure, stu- dents cannot register for pro- grams;.without students, there * can be no university,” said the committee, adding, “The pre- -mier should be made to live up to his promise of a publicly- funded four-year degree- granting university in Nelson.” Hard-Drinking Mothers-to-be Cause Defects Women who drink heavily during pregnancy run the risk of having mentally retarded babies, according to recent re- search at the University of Washington. Dr. Sterling Clarren, a pediatric fellow: at the uni- versity, said drinking mothers also are more likely to have - miscarriages or stillbirths. The threat is not ‘just to chronic alcoholics, Clarren said, but to moderately heavy social drinkers, as well.
