The group would likely review the problems in southern Africa while the leaders are at their private retrest, Thursday and Friday in K: na, B.C. But the officials refused to specify the topics t might be covered by tha fi ear countries began Tuesday in the palatial, heavily guarded confines of the Vancouver convention centre, leaders from five continents grappled with world issues, including the arms race, and trade and But they switched their focus today to the week's big issue — South Africa. It was not clear what, if any, new measures the Commonwealth might take to maintain the heat on Pretoria and its race-separated regime. British officials, briefing reporters today on the condition they not be identified, said Prime Minister ‘garet Thatcher's to further i is well known and she remains skeptical about a variety of proposals for a committee of foreign ministers to work on the problem. “There are infinite varieties . . . (of such proposals),” one British spokesman said. “We are very skeptical about that for the simple reason there are already God knows how many institutions monitoring the situation in South Africa. “And to have another seems to us to be scarcely required.” As the conference opened Tuesday, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney called apartheid “intrinsically evil,” in his opening speech before representatives of 45 of the Common- wealth’s 49 member states. His assertion that apartheid must be ended quickly brought him an emotional bear hug from Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda. But it became abundantly clear that a split is in the making. Spokesmen for Britain's Margaret Thatcher bluntly ald oe their prime minister has no intention of backing new against South Africa and will not support Saranys proposal that a council of Commonwealth foreign ministers be named as a catalyst to dialogue between Pretoria and black opposition groups. ‘Thatcher called apartheid “utterly detestable,” but also forcefully reminded other leaders that Commonwealth members “are free and independent sovereign states. “We have a legitimate right to our own views,” she added in a clear indication that she does not intend to follow Commonwealth peers in aiming significant sanctions against South Africa, which has more trade with Britain than with all other C OTHER OPTIONS Later, while observers speculated about the fallout from a possible second major split within a year over sanctions between Britain and other Commonwealth countries, External Affairs Minister Joe Clark told reporters that sanctions are not the only arrow in the anti- pgertheid quiver. ding that some C: countries may be arse = a “sanctions fatigue,” and*that “lohely little sanctions” by countries such as Canada cannot have much impact, Clark said there are, indeed, other options. He did not, however, explain what they might be. One possibility, the Canadian proposal for a council of foreign ministers, hasn't made any headway with Thatcher. British officials said, however, that the delegation is-open to another proposal for a working group of foreign ministers foreign ( “It's fluid and misty aé this’ tithe,” said one. Later, Mare Lortie, Mulroney's press aide, said the suggestion for a short-term council of foreign ministers could pririguesabecl alge gerry auton. dorset B50 as a compromise and said the Commonwealth could decide, at the end of the conference, if it wanted to brad ‘he committee permanent. ‘ In the briefing rooms, Thatcher's officials were icing the Canadian record on economic sanctions. They Canada had actually allowed trade with South Africa to increase in 1985 and 1986 while Mulroney was publicly calling for stiff measures against the white regiine. That set off a round of mutual jibe-swapping between the Canadian and British delegations, with one British official saying he “marveled” at the way the Canadians came up with self-justifying figures on trade with South Africa. A miffed Canadian groused in reply that the British “are playing silly bugger in the traffic on this one.” But on the surface, the endless rounds of formalities and speeches were calm enough and the Commonwealth appeared to be the collegial grouping that has been a peaceful force for four decades. After a day that began with being piped into a hall d with gs for the tradi | opening ceremony, the leaders changed ta into gala dress for a private dinner with the Queen at the luxurious downtown Four Seasons Hotel, an event that coincidentally marked ‘Thatcher's 62nd birthday.

It was the first time that number had been worn by a Lion in regular-season play since the notorious Young {nicknamed Dirty 30) retired in 1979. A sure bet as a Canadian Football League Hall of Famer, the Lions’ all-time leading receiver has never had his jersey officially retired by the team. “It was a bit of a funny feeling,” admitted Young, who watched the game on TV. “I remember somebody on the board of directors telling me once they had voted to retire it, but I guess it never became official.” Recently, appointed as the general manager of the Sandman Inn of Georgia Street, Young says he wasn't upset to see 30 in the lineup again. “It's only a jersey,” he says. “After all, the club has been great to me. They had a wonderful night for me at Empire Stadium.” Because No. 30 hadn't shown up since Young retired, many Lions fans assumed that the number had joined No. 15 [Willie Fleming}, No. 22 [Jee Kapp], No. 38 [By Bott Jo, Tp lNeron Fiehdeate] sad: Na 6A evel as sweaters that would never be worn again, But equipment manager. Creighton simply hadn't bothered ordering a No. 30, assuming like everyone else that it had been retired. But when the Lions changed jersey companies this year, a No. 30 was included in the order. The Lions board of directors says it discussed retiring the number when Young finished his playing days. But it was decided instead to honor him with a Jim Young Scholarship Program. THE NEW $1.5 million Grand Forks aquatic centre is a hit with residents. The centre, which opened June 20, features a fitness centre, poolside cafe and seating areas, tanning booths, family change rooms, coin operated lockers, a whirlpool, wet and dry sauna and a wading pool for the youngsters. The pool was built with volunteer money, $800,000 from the city’s slag reserve fund, an Expo Legacy grant and taxes from a portion of the Kootenay Boundary Regional District. A particularly welcome feature is the water level. About 96 per cent of the pool surface is shallow water where adults can stand with no trouble and children can play. IMPRESSIVE POOL . . .
