College is not only good news for students and faculty at. the educational institution, it's also very good news for 1 of the fs d 4, Corporation, of British Columbia surprised almost everyone by containing provisions which . will also allow the government to go into the general insurance field if it wishes. The government should be taking a second Castlegar’ district...’ A> proper. indoor. sports facility at the college has long been lacking and, as Selkirk's principal, Dr. Bruce Fraser, told the Castlegar, News, construction’.of: the gymnasium will release the time presently rented by the college. in the KJ88 and SHSS gymnasiums to other groups. Recreation: Commission No. 1; for example, has been anxious to obtain more gym time for adult keep-fit classes and possibly this will help that group, although the problem with gymnasiums, like that of ice arenas, is ‘that . everyone wants to use them at the same time.

For ‘all: this, however, people shouldn't delay “any longer. obtaining ‘their Autoplan insurance.
