Neither side budging in Pulp and Paper dispute SHARLENE IMHOFF Sun Editor The labour. dispute involving Pulp and Paper workers has both sides digging in their heels, refus- ing to budge for a chance to return to the table. "We think we've given them a first class offer. If anyone moves it will be them," said Dave Reed, an official from the Pulp and Paper Industrial Relations Bureau, in reference to the unions involved. More than two weeks ago, 80 voting union delegates across the province voted unanimously against the last contract offer, which included pay raises of 30 cents an hour the first year and 70 cents an hour the following year. Stan Shewaga, president of the pulp workers’ union, faxed a cir- cular to media outlets Tuesday, explaining that in Alabam MacMillan & Bloedel, a hea weight in the pulp industry, has just agreed to a contract with three United Paperworkers Inter- national Union locals. The release explains that the industry has been wrongfully flooding the media with reports about a poor pulp and paper market and that this latest contract offer with MacMillan & Bloedel proves otherwise. The release from Shewaga states the new contract to U.S. workers provides for wage increases of 2.5 per cent and three per cent per annum, and workers receive 13 statutory holi- days per year. In B.C., the workers currently have four statutory holidays, and the industry is demanding they give up one of them—another bone of contention between the two sides in B.C.. The NDP government is keep- ing a watchful eye on the strike, and Labour Minister Moe Sihota placed a call to the Industrial Relations Office Tuesday. "I wouldn't expect a back to work order at this time, but things can change when a strike gets lengthy,” finished Reed, who said the minister was "just checking up” on the situation while out of his own office. Surprise RCMP road blocks put damper on graduation party SHARLENE IMHOFF Sun Editor Two surprise road blocks set up by local RCMP on the same night as graduation celebrations has some graduates and their par- ents upset. _ Graduation celebrations ‘took place on Saturday, and consisted of what was termed a “con- trolled” party at the old Kalame- da race track, on the outskirts of Castlegar. Part of this control was extend- ed by parents for security reasons and by members of the local Ambulance service, who provid- ed safe transportation home from the celebrations. RCMP enf< d The Castlegar mother says she is not blind to the fact that the students will be drinking anyway, and that to control the party by providing safe transportation home is the alternative almost everyone agreed would be the But Corporal Al Hudema from the Castlegar RCMP said the ‘It seems like graduation is just another excuse to get drunk.’ — CPL AL HUDEMA RCMP the law which states it is unlaw- [See Letters to the Editor] party held by the race track was more than a bunch of grads get- ful to serve alcohol to any minor in a public place, and the road checks resulted in RCMP confis- cating a large amount of alcohol en route to the graduation party. “There's a lot of upset people, including members of the ambu- lance service who were intent on driving these kids home,” said Maureen Chermenkoff, a parent whose son graduated this year. ting , and that the RCMP are fully justified in serving the law. “{The party} was not a con- trolled circumstance. It wasn’t just grads attending this party, it was their relatives, it was their friends, and even strangers. It doesn’t take long for word to get out that the big party is being held.” Hudema says it’s likely that graduates might have lost all con- cept of what “Graduation” is all about. “It seems like graduation is just another excuse to get drunk,” Hudema says he fully endorses the dry-grad concept and extend- ed his congratulations to-the few Stanley Humphries students who chose that particular route. “We're not sticking our heads in the sand by saying a dry grad will work. We know that the kids will begin to have what they call pre-grad parties as soon as Spring hits. But if that’s the case, then there shouldn't be a problem with keeping graduation night alcohol- free.” Over 650 vehicles en route to the party were searched, yielding 15 alcohol seizures and two “minor in possession” charges. One of the seizures by police was a full keg of beer. RCMP met with the grad plan- ning committee late last week, and during this time, Hudema said he reinforced the fact that providing alcohol to minors is a violation of the Liquor Control Act. “This action is illegal and not condoned by the RCMP—why should we allow it on one night,” Hudema said. -Gettin’ ready! - Thank you SUN STAFF PHOTO / JASON KEENAN Castlegar Little League team members get together to thank all the sponsors who helped make their first season a big success.

Sun staff likely be closing their offices two to three days each month to make Doctors in Castlegar will be closing their office doors this Fri- day afternoon. Local Physicians Action Com- mittee Chairperson Dr. Jon Van Vliet said the province’s medical system is underfunded by $60 million for 1992. Van Vliet said B.C. doctors will up for the 1] in funding. “Funding will run short before the year ends,” Van Vliet said. “It won't cover lab costs and doctors won't get paid.” Physicians throughout B.C. have been trying to persuade Health Minister Elizabeth Cull to change certain aspects of the con- troversial Bill 71 since it was New program could help local teenage moms gain academics BRENDAN HALPER Sun staff Castlegar could soon have a school program to help young mothers obtain their much need- ed high-school diplomas. The School District No. 9 board members are currently reviewing a Teen Parenting Pro- posal. Unfortunately, most young female students who become pregnant have to leave the educa tional system because of parental responsibilities, financial prob lems, and the social stigma often attached. “Certainly the trustees are very favorably disposed to support this program,” said Superintendent Terry Wayling. Wayling said the program's viability depends on assessing present needs within the district and, “If there are adequate num- bers to generate enough revenue to hire some staff, it would proba- bly be feasible.” Wayling and trustee Lach Far- rel have already had discussions with staff at Stanley Humphries Secondary School “We're not quite sure of how to deliver the program.” Program options include cor- respondence education, the pathfinder program— c introduced. Bill 71 contains nine articles which B.C. doctors find unacceptable, including the lack of sufficient funds. “We don’t feel Mrs. Cull is lis- tening to the Physicians,” he said. “She has no intentions of being fair and open. It’s such high- handed techniques without nego- tiations” Local doctors also say that uti- lization of services has increased by four per cent this year, some- thing the NDP government has not accounted for. “We'll probably lose a lot of doctors who'll head out of B.C., to the States where there is better equipment and no waiting lists,” he said. “They're creating a rationing—a worsening of the system with Bill 71.” assisted education program with a minimum $150,000 price tag. “We're looking at the feasibili- ty of direct, tutorial type of instruction by a_ teacher,” Wayling said. “We'll try and make this thing fly—we've asked See TEEN MOM 11A Sunfest is only two days away — see you there! ! { v
