Growth statistics of the Father Says Thank You Dear Sir: As many of the true facts of the Crescent Valley accident have come to light since the inquest, I would like, on behalf of my wife and myself, to thank Mr. and Mrs, Bill Posnikoff and famlly, also Mr. John Hlookoff and family, and any of the local residents who] am gure helped to save my son Philip's life, The media reports on Philip's condition, and the in- juries received were incorrect, When admitted to hospital, he had a fractured skull, and was suffering from exposure, and was placed in the intensive care unit for four days, Investigation of his in- juries is stil! being pursued due to his amnesia. A great deal of public attention has been given to the lack of concern by the accident but my son is living e1V | having 1,000 members, five years to reach 2,000 members but in * Ps the past two years membership has grown by 1,000 each year.

He said they'd arrived at the party about midnight, after visiting a nearby pub, but couldn't recall when they'd left. “I don't remember drink- ing,” he added, “but I could have.” Calderbank said he and Beattie had taken a bottleiof rum to the affair, “But it was donated to the party,” he said, “and the bottle was. passed around between about 80 people,” He didn’t recall the ac. cident and couldn't even re- member whether or not he was driving at the time. *“Is your lack of recollection Our Carpenters and Carpetlayers are WALKING OUT!
