Greenwood, a former Trail resident, said she was afraid she was going to be-killed _ SMECHER continued from front poge The final meeting of the current board was not without controversy. Before giving her year-end report, Smecher moved that an agenda item that was discussed by the board at an in-camera meeting be brought up'at the-next. public board meeting for discussion. The next public board meeting is the inaugural meeting of the new board on Dec. 2. The in-camera agenda item concerns a letter of intent to the Ministry -of Education, but because the matter was discussed in-camera, no details were released at Monday's meeting. After the meeting, trustee Gordon Turner described the létter of intent as “a potentially explosive item in the district. “It has district-wide implications that are only speculation,” he said. “It's Probably something which we'll never have to do.” Turner added that the item will cause all sorts of problems for the new (board) chairman. “The new board will have to handle a potentially explosive issue,” he said. During the-meeting, Turner and trustee Kay Johnson argued against Smecher's motion. “I find it difficult to debate a motion on an item that is in-camera,’ Johnson said. “It seems highly irregular to me.” Turner said he wondered why Smecher made the motion at Monday's meeting. “It could have been discussed in-camera and brought up at (this) public meeting,” Turner said, adding, “We may want to discuss this now.” The board passed the motion with Johnson and Turner abstaining. when the stocky Hillis grab- bed her from behind and held a knife to her throat as she drove him and another young man out of this northwestern British Columbia town May 29, 1984. She said the two, both from nearby Kispiox, forced her to driye to an isolated park on an island in the Skeena River. Then they or- dered her out of the cab. “He raped me,” she said of Hillis. “He was: angry. His head was turned away. “I was just crying. I was seared of him.” She begged them not to kill her, and he agreed. “But I was wrong,” she said tearfully as she des- cribed. how Hillis advanced on her with a hunting knife. She was dragged into the bushes where she said Hillis slashed her throat several times and continued to stab her until she feigned death. And as the two drove off in her cab, she feared she would die. ernment emp! union. Collier noted the federal tax department had never before taxed strike benefits paid to union members. In this case, the tax de- partment contended the agreement between the em- ployees who went on strike and the union was a “contract for services” in which the strikers earned their money by withdrawing their labor from the liquor board “or, in other words, doing nothing.” CALENDAR. continued from front poge : ‘market.

Approximately $1,050. in cash, some cheques and credit cards, as well as five cartons of cigarettes and a quantity of Lotto Shell game cards were ‘stolen, Trail RCMP ‘said.

The investigation is con- tinuing. optional course — ‘will also be restructured: Its content and focus will be similar to PE 11 but with different percentages of time allotted to the various activities. Less emphasis — 40 per cent of class time — will be spent on chosen sports and more time — 25 per cent — will the new course. In the past, DePaoli said, PE 11 “has been a carry over from PE 9 and 10. “Kids have become tired of rehashing old sports,” he said. & Next year, in the optional course, two sports and will get 25 hours of instruction on ed two sports,” DePaoli said. That time will account for 50 per cent of the time in the PE 11 course. The rest of the course’ is broken down as follows: e 15 per cent on leisure activities such as downhill and cross-country skiing; e 15 per cent on active health, such as nutrition and fitness concepts; e 10 per cent on personal development which. will include such things as first aid training; and -y school, the Castlegar school board heard a presentation by SHSS physical education teacher Barry DePaoli on what's in store for students who opt for be spent on leisure activities. Active health will also receive less emphasis — five per cent — and and school will each receive 15 per cent of class time. DePaoli also described to the board the school's physical fitriess assessment which is sent out with each student's report card. The assessment includes fitness tests covering will select and upper and lower body strength. In addition, the assessment keeps track of body measurements, such as height, weight and percentage of body fat. The purpose of the assessment is “to educate. students about nd i with fitness and how to apply. this information to daily living,” according to d with the and i to pursue fitness and to “inform students of their strengths and weaknesses,” the assessment says.

By CasNews Staff Castlegar school board has turned down a -request from the Kinnaird Elementary/Valley Vista Parents Group to hire a paid crossing guard at Milestone Hill. At the board's meeting Monday night at Stanley Humphries Secondary School, board chairman Doreen guard to be hired at the minimum wage. » the board's with CUPE includes a classification for crossing guards and states that they must be paid about $8 an hour and be hired for a minimum of four hours a day, Smecher said. Trustee Linda Krullsaid “we're talking a $2,000 minimum” to hire a crossing guard. “If we do it for one we have to do it for all,” she said. Smecher said “it wouldn't hurt to put in a request (to BOARD BRIEFS the highways department) for a traffic light” crossing. Trustees Kay Johnson and Gordon Turner voted against the board's decision to turn down the request. US ROUTE at the committee that a request for a school bus route extension to Brilliant in the afternoon be turned down was referred back to the committee. ‘The request came from a parent in the area who said she is concerned that children coming home in the afternoon must cross the highway after leaving the bus. Johnson said the woman phoned her and expressed concern over the increase in industrial traffic in the area. “If there is a substantial increase in traffic then we should take another look at it,” trustee Anutooshkin said. BROWNIE BUSING A motion not to permit the busing of Brownies on the district's school buses ended in confusion and was unresolved at the meeting. DePaoli said the latter will vary in each school district: For example, he said, a Prince George school might choose to emphasize cross-country skiing because of the favorable climate and ‘terrain in that area.

Krull said the transportation committee was “afraid to set a precedent in the district” ‘by transporting anyone but students. But Johnson noted that the board has already set a precedent “by allowing a bus! to pick up children attending the Christian school.” 5 “I just hate to have an empty bus pass by people on the road,” Johnson ‘added.

Among things discussed were the renovations to SHSS and revision of the School Act. Smecher said D'Arcy promised to keep the board informed of pi with the revision:~ She added that D'Arcy told the trustees that “we are coming out of restraint.” But she said he added he didn't know “what we are going into.” STUDENT EXPELLED Johnson reported that one student has been expelled from SHSS this year.

HOCKEY FANS IN CRESTON have got their eyes on Philadelphia Flyers lately — speifically. the Flyers rookie goaltender Darren Jensen. Jensen, who hails from Creston, has been in goal during the Flyers’ last three victories. The 25-year-old was called up from the Flyers’ farm * team (Hershey Bears of AHL) when Bob Froese, the goaltender who is replacing Pelle Lindbergh, suffered a groin injury in practice. Lindbergh was recently killed in a car accident. But with Jensen in the nets, the Flyers are still winning. On Sunday the Flyers beat New York Islanders for its 13th consecutive victory, though that streak ended with an 8-6 loss to the same Islanders Tuesday night. Jensen, who played only one NHL game before last Thursday, surrendered three, two, four and eight goals in the four games. He stopped all seven shots by Edmonton's Wayne Gretzky, seven more by the Islanders’ Mike Bossy and kept New York scoreless for the last 30:05 of Sunday's game while the Flyers rallied from a 4-1 deficit for a 5-4 triumph. Jensen is a former star with the University of North Dakota. ‘THERE'S ANOTHER feather in the cp of the Kootenays with the naming of Rev. Calvin Brown of Nelson's First P yterian Church as of the Presbyterian Church of Canada’s B.C. synod. Brown, who is known at the Presbyterian Church here, is also pastor of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church at Slocan. CasNews publisher Burt Campbell, who periodically ‘attends Brown's Sunday evening services at Slocan, describes him as “a gentle man with a great sense of humor,” adding: “His sermons highlight his deep personal Christian views.” Rev. Brown, a 12-year resident of Nelson, will serve for one year as chairman and spokesman for the synod, which is a council of church .representatives from throughout the province.
