I saw it earlier at the local theatre. It was a good movie, and its popularity suggests to me that you don't have to fill a movie with sex and violence to bring on the viewers, The sex and violence may say more about the movie- makers’ tastes than the pub- lic's tastes. “Chariots of Fire” was mostly accurate. One of the crucial points in the movie was Eric Liddell’s refusal to run a heat for the 100 metres on Sunday. The movie had him informed of the Sunday heats just as he was boarding the boat for France. In fact, be announced well before feaving for France that he would not run on Sunday. For weeks, the public and the press branded him as a traitor, since he was almost sure to win the event. When the Olympic Committee had him run in the 400 metres instead, they saw, no chance of him winning for Britain. And in fact his inexperi- ence almost lost it. Placed in the outside land where he couldn't see the other run ners, he shot through the first 200 metres at a blis- tering pace.

Erie Liddell went on from the Olympics to teach at a missionary school in China. There he married a Canadian girl, and had two little girls. His widow still lives, in Ham- ilton, Ontario. In 1987 Liddel’s missionary society asked him to leave his teaching position to work in some small villages. It was a dangerous area, because of the Japanese occupation. He had to leave behind his wife and children. He often smug- gled needed money past Jap- anese patrols, by striking friendly conversation with them. He had a happy way about him that won friends and baffled enemies. In 1943, Liddell was put in prisén camp along with other British and Americans. Years later, people re- how much Eric Lid- dell had kept up their spirits during that difficult time. He would listen to people's prob- lems. He would talk about God. He would visit the sick. He died while in prison camp of a brain tumor, at 43 years of age. If they ever make a movie about the rest of Erie Lid- dell's life, I want to see it. It would probably be another box-office success. LEMOEL — To Mr. and Mrs. Brian LeMoel of Trail, a girl, born July 23.

AND MRS. KENNETH LEBEDOFF . residing in Thrums Bell, Lebedoff exchange vows Lorraine Irene Bell and Kenneth Matthew Lebedoff were married July 7, at the Calvary Baptist Church in The bride is the of Dougias Holling th and Pearl! Bell of Victoria, and the groom is the son of wate and Margaret Lebedoff of Thrums. The wedding was officiated by Pastor H.R. Duck- worth, and the organist was Jacquie Farris, who played The Wedding Song. The church was decorated in a rainbow theme by Helen's Flowers. Given in marriage by her parents, the bride wore a headpiece of silk flowers, white roses, baby’s breath, small daisies, and small pink roses. Her dress was trimmed with ruffles and a small train. The bride also wore a string of pearis and pearl earrings given to her by the groom. The matron of honor was Wendy Ann Filiatrault, the bride's sister, who wore a light-blue long dress. The bridesmaids — all nieces of the bride — were Melissa Filiatrault, who wore a pale blue long dress, Tanya Filiatrault, with a pale green long dress, Michelle Filiatrault, with a melon-colored ankle-length dress, Christine Bell, with a pale yellow ankle-length dress, Carolyn Bell, with a pale pink ankle-length dress, and Francine Bell, with a coral-pink long dress. The best man was Rob Neil, from Ashcroft. Ushers were Derek Kittson, Chris Bell and Harry Kooznetsoff. The reception took place at the Fireside Motor Inn, in Castlegar. The master of ceremonies was Alexander Lebedoff, and the toast to the bride and groom was made by Rob Neil. The weding trip was to Fairmont Hot Springs, and the couple will live in Thrums. Columnist John Charters, currently holidaying in the Scotland a land full of experiences All experience is an arch where thro’ gleams that untravell'd world which fades forever and forever as we move. ‘Ulysses,’ Tennyson It had been a tiring, cloudy trip, a long baggage wait at Prestwick and I had crushed the finger of our Scottish hostess Jean Cormack in the baggage cart. I was much upset and glad, therefore, of the distraction when Alex Cormack said, “Jack, will ye no ask that Frenchman to move his car, I canna get into mine?” I approached the apparently drunk or sleeping Frenchman sitting slumped in the driver's seat of his Renault — with his hat over his face and said, “Monsieur, s'il vous plait . . .” then suddenly realizing I couldn't remember how to say “would you move your car” in French, I said it in English. To my stunned surprise a voice from beneath the hat “Comment allez vous, monsieur, fermez la bouche, mate.” with a decidedly familiar chuckle and Australian accent. Then from beneath the hat, emerged the even more familiar features and Cheshire’ cat grin of our much travelling friend and joker Doug Williams, who with his wife Mary, had arrived earlier in Scotland and set up the faulty park trap for me with Alex. When laughter and greetings were over and our luggage loaded into the cars we were off southward, whisked along the narrow winding roads, between the high hedges and oak forests — and among copse dotted “hills of sheep’ by the fields along the Stlway Ferth, Scotland,’ until we reached the town of Dolbeattie and our temporary home. Dolbeattie is a typical small (pop. 5,000) Scottish town — on the river Urr and its narrow and twisting streets, and tall, narrow hued grey stone houses echo a history which goes back to Viking times. The Cormack’'s house, a three-storey building, (they own the two upper floors) faces on to the town square. At the centre of which is a tall, thin monument, a fountain and a bench. A wide black-painted door opens at the United Kingdom, tells of his experiences in Scotiend. sidewalk into a wide vestibule and thence up wee winding stairs .to the surprisingly extensive apartments. On the right of the door o a confectionary shop (sweet shop), on the leff is a hairdresser shop and the ‘corner Chippie’ (Fish and Chip) Shop).

Kinnaird and Son, Grocers.’ * “T.H. Arson, Butcher’, with ‘Dann’s Electric Appliances’ just to the right, a hardware shop across the road and on the left and just next to it, the local chemist (druggist) shop, followed by frock (dress) shop, (druggist) shop, followed by frock (dress) shop, station- ers, baker shop and at the end the large post office. Five years ago we watched from these same windows as a parade with several pipe bands and a number of floats marched by below. The main float was a replica of a ‘dragon ship’ complete with a number of heavily armed ‘Vikings’ who made mock-ferocious sallies at the many attractive auburn-haired young women who fled screaming — but not too quickly — to escape their clutches. One was reminded strongly that many of these red-heads had Viking as well as Celtic blood flowing in their veins. In any case there was little danger that pursuers or pursued would trip over the curbs, since these, in common with many older towns in Britain, are edged with granite blocks and only an inch or so above the level of the street — a distinct advantage where the crowded snowladen side walks have only enough room for two people to walk abreast, and one must step out into the street to pass. Our original plan had been to spend the first two or tour to come of the Hebrides (Western Isles). It is however, a land so full of things to see and experience that pure greed pushed good sense so that the very next day we had our hosts racing through the country side again, on the left side of the road, to visit Castle Douglas, which is not a Castle but a town and Dundrenn, an Abbey which is no longer an abbey but a picture post card Cicistercian Monastery run under the National Heritage Trust.
