WN SKIP WILLIAM ‘Press When Skip’ Williams was knocked off his feet by a lightning bolt he got the scare of his life. Williams was golfing with three others on a course at Port Colborne, Ont., when a sudden storn off Lake Brie hit the area and sent a bolt of lightning into a tree 10 metres from the men. Williams says his feet left the ground and when they came down he “didn't stop running ‘til I hit the clubhouse.” That incident occurred 15 years ago and gave Williams powerful respect for the dangers of lightning. Today, he is executive director of the Ontario Golf Association, an organ ization that has mounted a poster campaign to warn golfers of the risks of playing through a storm. About six people in Canada die each year from light- ning. Nearly a third of those hit are taking part in some kind of recreational activity, often on golf courses or in small rubbing your feet acrose a carpet can cause a spark to p your fingertip to a doorknob, the movement of clou: in a storm produces a charge that leaps to the ground in the form of lightning. ‘a golfing hazard The golf association poster says the best way to avoid being hit by lightning is to get inside before the storm arrives. Weather offices can predict the likelihood of a storm as much as 24 hours in advance. Nature provides many clues of her own. Distant thunder is the clearest warning, often allowing up to half an hour of escape time. The buildup of cauliflower-shaped clouds with a dark base (cumulonimbus) usually warns of an approaching storm. The safest place to go in a thunderstorm is inside a large building or a closed automobile. Small shacks, golf carts and most tents offer no protection. If caught outdoors while lightning is striking, it's important to keep off hilltops and open areas like fairways and putting greens. Shelter can be sought in dense woods. But standing under a single tree is one of the worst choices. In June, a St. Catharines, Ont. boy was killed by lightning while under a tree. A ‘week later, a Hamilton man died while entering his car when lightning struck a tree next to him, i er on .

Swimming and boating are Chamber. opposes increase By CasNews Staff Castlegar Chamber of Commerce has joined Castle. gar council in opposing B.C Telephone Co.'s application for a six per cent interim rate increase Chamber president Mike O'Connor told a recent coun cil meeting the chamber will not support a rate increase until the company begins providing “decent service.” O'Connor said chamber members several months ago reported poor telephone ser vice and after complaining the service was improved. However, he says the ser vice has again deteriorated. “You can pick up and dial and you get out into never reverland,” he said O'Connor said the chamber is “sickened” by the fact that when B.C. Tel representa tives were in Castlegar, telephones worked well “Now it's worse than be fore,” he said. However, city administra tor Dave Gairns said the city has not had.any more prob lems with its telephones. Meanwhile, B.C. Tel said in a letter to council that it re quires the interim rate in crease because operating ex penses in 1983 increased by 8.8 per cent and total oper ating taxes jumped by 13.1 per cent We anticipate that our expenses in 1984 will in crease by a similar amount,” said L.J. Dooling. B.C. Tel's vice-president of revenue re- quirements. He said B.C. Tel must maintain “a sound financial footing” in order to attract outside capital at a “reason able cost.” News received for a pho- tograph of the 107th birthday celebratian of Katie Chernoff in the July 1 issue incorrectly identified one person as son inlaw Fred Voykin.
