J Weavers plan annual exhibit The first Selkirk Weavers’ Guild meeting since last June was held at the Resker Hall in Robson on Sept. 16 with 18 regular members and four guests in attendance. -Members immediately be- gan planning, delegating and assuming responsibilities for the annual exhibit and sale. This will be held on Nov. 13 and 14 at the Castlegar Com- munity Complex, with a pre- view showing Friday evening and the sale to take place on Saturday. In the light of high in- surance expences for the weaving room.at the Douk- hobor Historical Society Vil- lage and a rent increase for the meeting room at the Res- ker Hall, the guild discussed the possibility of an increase’ in membership fees. A workshop is planned for April or May with Mineke Miess. She offers expertise in dyeing, transparencies, Where there's a will there's a way: , FREEPORT, TEX. (AP) — Folks here figure there's always a way around a prob-- lem. This time, though, it took a helicopter. The Freeport city council noted a state-law require- ment that on-site public hearings be held by muni- cipalities seeking to annex land. : So when the owner of land near Jones Creek refused to grant city officials permission to hold the hearing on his turf, the council had itself a 24-hectare (60-acre) problem. Officials tried to get to the land by car, but a gate was closed and locked. Un- daunted, the officials re- turned to city hall, and found that a helicopter was avail- able to take four of them to the hearing site. Mayor Tobey Davenport and two council members were chosen to create a quo- rum. A reporter joined them. The four were deposited in a pasture, to the surprise of a herd of cows. Davenport called the meet- ing to order, read the re- quired notice and asked if anyone opposed the annex- ation. A cow mooed. Annexation approved.

It was suggested that a follow-up course to Ruby Marsh's instruction for be- ginner weavers through the Castlegar and District Rec- reation Commission be in- troduced. If sufficient inter- est is shown, this is a pos- sibility for the winter ses- sion. For the meeting on Oct. 21, members are invited to bring along any odd yarns with prices clearly marked for a yarn swap. If any members have a brilliant idea for a theme for this year's sale, they are urged to make their suggestions at this meeting. The S.W.G. would like to extend a welcome to pros- pective new members. New weavers and/or textile ar- tists are invited to attend meetings on the third Wed- nesday of every month at 10 a.m. in the Resker Hail in Robson. me Changes made to this year’s stamp program Postmaster General Andre Ouellet recently Fraud charges stayed against mayor CRANBROOK (CP) — Mayor Ty Colgur was fined $400 Monday in provincial court after pleading guilty to acharge of failing to exercise his powers and perform his functions with care, diligence and skill.
