Seven districts call for return of control Joint brief is submitted to review committee (gulf 3telantrj5 Brtf ttooofc It has been recommended to the Regional District Review Commit- tee that the responsibility for land use planning in the islands be returned to the seven regional districts of the area. In a joint brief prepared by the seven districts, the review commit- tee has been told that the amend- ments to the Island Trust Act, which were proclaimed January 1, undermine the concept of regional districts. "We believe that not only is the basic premise of the changes to the Islands Trust Act inconsistent with the approach of the provincial government to regional districts, but that the process thus establish- ed conflicts with the basic principle of area representation," says the brief. "The clumsy procedures neces- sitated by the amendments create management problems and delays for local communities that remove the right to effective local plan- ning." LOCAL LEVEL The regional districts say that the "centralized provincial govern- ment cannot and does not respond well to the local needs of commun- ities" and that land use decisions must be made on a local level. "Regional government is a very efficient unit for determining the use of land and resources in an area large enough to be recogniz- able as a system," continues the brief, "while retaining the ability to respond effectively to the partic- ular character of the area and the wishes of the local communities." The brief points out that the provincial interest was represented when the General Trust Committee was made up of three "appointed provincial officials". But the change in legislation, the regional districts note, will see the General Trust Committee made up of elected local trustees, "who may very well come from one particular area in the Trust." OUTSIDE THE AREA If the general trustees were elected from Hornby and Denman Islands, the brief contends, final say in considering problems of the lower Gulf Islands would be in the hands of people from outside that area. "As a further result," the brief continues, "the whole agency de- signed to govern land use in order to protect the provincial interest will not have any provincially elected or appointed representa- tives. "Under this system it appears doubtful to us that the provincial interest will be any better protect- ed than it was...under the various regional districts." The regional districts also feel that the number of elected repre- sentatives within the Trust area is very high and out qf proportion with that of the rest of B.C The "responsiveness and the accessi- bility" of the decision makers and the staff have been "dramatically decreased", the brief says. DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS It is also noted that residents of the islands have to deal with different elected people for differ- ent functions. There are 29 elected officials dealing with land use and another seven who look after administration of services, such as health. The taxpayer, states the brief, is faced with the costs of maintaining separate local government struc- tures and "is furthermore burden- ed with cumbersome if not unwork- able process dealing with local problems". The regional districts conclude that either land use control be returned to them or that a new regional district of the islands be created. Land use planning, they feel, is a process that cannot be viewed separately from "other endeavours of local government". The aforementioned brief is one of three that have a connection with the islands and have been submitt- ed to the Regional District Review Committee.

We are all happy to see that we have RCMPConstable W. Klassen here on the Island for thesummer months. He says that if anyone wishesto get in touch with him, they may call theGanges Detachment, and the messasge willimmediately be passed on to him.

In cases when, sometimes, the GangesDetachment does not answer, as they are sovery busy there, too, he can be reached throughRCMP Detachment, toll free, Zenith 5000, andthey will also reach him much quicker thantrying to find him here on the Island.

Const. Klassen was happy on Monday to havehis mother and father fly down all the way fromFort St. John, to visit him for the day.

Galiano Lions are getting into gear now forthe big Fiesta, there was a joint meeting of allinterested clubs on June 1, before the regularLions meeting, and another one will be calledsoon.

The Galiano Ladies Service Club will beholding their garden party at the home of Mr.and Mrs. George Newton on Monday, June 12.This will be the last gathering of this club for theseason.

Galiano Lionettes meet on the same day, June12, at the home of Mrs. D. Lupton, and Lionswill have their last dinner meeting of thesummer season on June 15 at Galiano Hall.

In our hospital news, Miss Jean Lockwood ishome again after a short stay at Ganges, weunderstand that Peter Denroche will be cominghome soon, after a month in hospital. Mrs.Phoebe Sadler came home on June 4.

Some time ago, Mr. and Mrs. C.F. Webb soldtheir home on the Island, and are now on themainland. We are so pleased that KenBlackwood, an official with Okanagan Helicop-ters, in Vancouver, has bought the Webb home,and will be spending much time over on theIsland he has known for quite a few years.

Capital Regional Board

BRIEF CALLS FOR CLEAR DEFINITION OF ROLEOF EACH LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT IN PROVINCE

Capital Regional Board hassummarized the character of itsown operation to the RegionalDistrict Review Committee. In abrief presented to the commissionrecently, the board concludes withthe plea for clear-cut outlines of theduties and responsibilities of eachlevel of government.

Biggest problem facing theregional districts, suggests thebrief, is lack of clear definition ofrole as well as the lack of a clearseparation between various localgovernment functions.,

The board has urged that theduties of each level of governmentbe more clearly laid out. Therewould be less likelihood of clashbetween various levels if this weredone and the present position,where large municipalities mayfrequently find themselves payingfor the cost of services to smaller,more isolated communities, couldbe eliminated.

To assess the needs of thedistrict, the authors of the briefexamined the nature of the CapitalRegion. Covering 945 squaremiles, the region includes the GulfIslands, the Victoria metropolitanarea and the Sooke electoral area.Victoria, the Saanich Peninsula andthe Gulf Islands share the samemild climate, although the westernsection of the district enjoys a verymuch heavier rainfall, sometimesexceeding 97 inches, or nearlythree times that of the islands.

In 1976 the population of theCapital Region was 230,600 and ofthis figure, 217,000 are in theVictoria metropolis.AVERAGE AGE

In terms of average age, thedistrict deviates from the BritishColumbia norms. The 0-14 group islower than the rest of BritishColumbia and the number embrac-ed by the 65-and-over bracket isgreater than average.

Activities in the Gulf Islandsare mainly directed to services,logging and the recreation indus-try.

After defining the area and thenature of its activities, the briefasks, "In the interests of thepeople in this well-defined regionalcommunity, which tasks, powers

For RentOffice Space

Lancer Building537-5453 or 653-4437

and responsibilities which are con-stitutionally held by the provincialgovernment ought to be delegatedto local government(s) and whatform should such local govern-ment^) take?"

The brief suggests that eight ormore local councils would acceptresponsibility for local servicingand regulation of property and itsuse; street maintenance and light-ing and beautification; sewer col-lection, drainage, water distribu-tion and local parks and recreation.Local land use would be theresponsibility of local councils in-cluding zoning, subdivisions • andbusiness licenses, local amenitiesand fire protection, garbage collec-tion, within the regional policy.REGIONAL CONCERNS

The regional council would, inturn, be responsible for regionalland use planning whereby localcouncils would be required toproduce local planning, consistentwith the regional plan.

Police, public health services,sewage trunks and plants, garbagedisposal and a fire protection policywould all be regional concerns.

Regional road systems andoperation of transit; economic de-velopment capability, local landuse in non-municipal areas, reg-ional parks and local improvementsin non-municipal areas would allremain with the regional adminis-tration.

The functions of local andregional government should beclearly defined and there should beno conflict in concerns.

The Capital Regional Boardfeels that the ideal situation fromthe point of view of the citizen isthat he may have access to hiselected representative and that hemay be able to identify thatrepresentative's jurisdiction.

The board asks that at leastsome of the directors of a regionalboard hold that and no other office.

Single most urgent need for theregional districts at the presenttime, says the brief, is the author-ity to enforce the regional planningfunction.THREE OPTIONS

There are three options facingthe review committee, concludesthe brief. The committee canrecommend a retention of thepresent status quo, whereby theregional districts will continue asthey have in the past, with minoramendments and changes.

Or the committee may recom-mend the elimination of regionaldistricts. The big problem then

facing the province would be thereturn of regional functions to themunicipalities or the province.

Third alternative is the expan-sion of the regional function.

Capital Regional Board supp-orts the third alternative. It makesits recommendation in its finalparagraphs.

"Your committee should affirmthat the role of regional districts

and local municipalities should bedefined in such a way as to givelocal municipal tasks to localgovernment and regional tasks toregional government, and assurethat there is a minimum interde-pendence between them.

"It should then identify a formand structure of government todeal with purely regional matters.Having done this, the details ofadministration will flow naturally

from the process."The committee should then

remind the Provincial Governmentin a most positive way that it has aduty to establish, define, support,and put in place the" kinds ofgovernment which are required atthe third level in order that thecitizen can be served adequatelyand responsively in the variousspecial ways to which he isentitled."

Trust replies to brief condemning

its role in islands land useHands off the Trust!When the Islands Trust present-

ed a final brief to the BritishColumbia Regional District ReviewCommittee on May 30, the briefurged that the Trust be permittedto operate as it is now set up for atleast two years before any furtheraction is taken.

It will be clear at the end of thatperiod whether the Trust is handl-ing its responsibilities in an ad-equate manner.

The brief, presented by Chair-man Marc Holmes, is as follows:.

***May I suggest that if ever' an

issue has been "settled", this onehas. Exhuming it once more servesno good purpose.

Briefly, the history is:In September, 1973, the provinc-

ial government's four-party SelectStanding Committee on MunicipalMatters, having toured and studiedthe Islands extensively

(A) Unanimously recommendedan "Islands Trust" to assume theprimary responsibility for....landuse, future growth patterns, con-trol,of development...etc. This wasin recognition of the fragile andfinite nature of the islands and thepressure upon them.

(B) Clearly stated that "althoughregional districts are not geared tocarry out all the responsibilitiesexpected of them relative to thefuture of the coastal islands ofB.C., they can well serve theislands for many administrativepurposes including...local im-provements, special projects,health, building inspection, etc."FIRST ACT

In June 1974, the N.D.P. Gov-ernment drafted and the Legis-lature passed the "Islands TrustAct".

This reflected the spirit of thereport but was a half measure inthe sense that the Trust in import-

ant land-use matters had only •power of review and veto. Thismeant a degree of duplication ofwork done by the regional districts,a fact which they frequently criti-cised.

When the Social Credit govern-ment came to power a great deal ofstudy was given to the subject ofthe proper role of the Islands Trust,if any. Many representations weremade by regional districts to thePremier and to the Minister ofMunicipal Affairs to the effect thatthe Trust should be abolished ordrastically curtailed.

The Government studied thematter at length and finally secur-ed passage of Bill 25, by aunanimous vote of the Legislature,which drastically amended the Acteffective January 1978.INITIATIVE

each "designated" island a bodywith the power of initiative inland-use by-laws - zoning, subdi-vision, and the like - and to shareresponsibility with the Ministry ofHighways in regard to subdivisionapproval. This eliminated dupli-cation and ensured "on island"planning and land use control.

What it did not do was to removesuch things as hospitals, publichealth, building inspection, fireprotection, recreational parks, var-ious works and services, and othernon-land-use matters from theregional districts, the improvementdistricts, and the many provincialand federal departments Whichserve the islands in their variousfields of responsibility.ALREADY WORKING

It is here maintained that thenew system is already working welland that roughly two years shouldelapse before further significantrevision is considered.

Already the cumbersome land-use control procedures on theislands are proceeding more swiftlywith more local input, and withmore local knowledge of what isgoing on. This is largely due to thefact that each island of significancehas two resident locally-electedtrustees.

It is pointed out that last July,unofficial, but carefully controlled,polls favoured the Islands Trustover the Regional District on L)en-man Island and Hornby Island byroughly 90% and 75% respective-ly.

In November last the CapitalRegional District held an officialreferendum on Salt Spring Island,which is roughly half the popula-tion of the Trust area.

The result, with no room left tordoubt, showed that over twice asmany voters favoured the Trust ascompared to the Regional District.

Root diseases in trees (and theyare numerous) are caused by fungiin the soil. Fungi are thread-likeorganisms, non green plants thatcannot photosynthesize, thereforedepend- for their nourishment onother living or dead organisms.

A soil fungus, aided by theenzymes it secretes, will penetratethe bark of a tree-root with itsstring like members. These willspread like a web or network

(called the mycelium) slowly con-suming and destroying the root. Inmature trees, some root fungi willmove up into the trunk.

How do you know a tree isinfected with root rot? Viewed froma distance, an infected tree mayshow no sign, although there isfrequently a slowing of growth andsometimes (but not always) thefoliage will yellow or thin. What isrequired is careful examination at

the base of the tree. It is here thatyou will discover the evidences thatpoint to root rot.

Honey-coloured mushroomsgrowing around the bottom of thetrunk are one sign. These are thefruiting bodies of a fungus andindicate that the mycelium has fedextensively on the root system.One fungus produces what isknown as the "fairies ring", asmall symmetrical circle of toad-stools, close to the base of a maturetree. Another clue would be disten-sion or heavy flow of pitch emittingfrom the stem down near theground.

A tree so affected could one daytopple over suddenly, quite withoutwarning, even on a calm windlessday. In fact, several people onrecreational trips have, paid withtheir lives because they did notavoid root rot areas.

When a diseased tree falls or iscut down, the root disease funguswill remain in the soil for longperiods of time. As new trees grow,on the site, their roots becomeinfected and the disease continues.

Humanity

Foundationis coming

BY ANDREW LOCKSTIDTIn the late 1960s a few very

intelligent people, came to share acommon vision! It seemed theycould see that the true nature of theearth was slipping, causing peopleto change. Maybe people wereslipping, causing the earth tochange. Obviously this non-lifesupporting trend could not con-tinue.

Guru Raj Singh, of Vancouver,became interested in holding aconference, together with leaderslike Buchminster Suller, DavidSpangler, Patricia Sun, Yogi Bha-jan and others. These individualscreated the first World Symposiumon Humanity, held in Vancouver inNovember, 1976. A few thousandpeople came to hear and feel thisvision. Maybe this gathering start-ed the New Age we seem to bemoving into.

Out of the first symposium camethe joining of this collective intu-ition into the Humanity Found-ation.

The next step was putting to-gether a second World Sympos-ium, which will be held in threecentres: Los Angeles, Toronto andLondon. Linked by interactive vid-eo satellite, the event will reachmillions. If we all start becomingaware of our beautiful earth andour fellow beings maybe we won'tdestroy ourselves. -

On Sunday, the HumanityFoundation will be introduced toSalt Spring Island.

We are planning a day of talksand workshops dealing with suchthings as solar energy, astrology,natural preventive therapies, herbsand flower remedies. MargaretMarsh, Jim Green and Mac Mc-Laughlin will be our main speak-ers.

The event will take place at theCommunity Centre between 10 amand 6 pm.

The new owner of Salt SpringIsland's tacoria, El Zocalo, hasspent enough time in Mexico toknow what it takes to make tacos;in fact, Daryl Wang says he got"mighty sick" on tacos when hewas there.

Wang took over El Zocalo fromGeorge McLaren a month and ahalf ago. McLaren, who started thebusiness last year, has taken a jobfirefighting in the Yukon.

Daryl Wang came to Salt Springtwo and a half months ago fromVancouver. His cooking experienceincludes a job as a cook's helper inan oil exploration camp in Pincher

Island riders benefit by programsOn Saturday and Sunday Salt

Spring Island riders were fortunateto have Heather Woods, of Victor-ia, as their instructor.

Heather's considerable exper-ience in all phases of riding and hergifted ability to communicate as ateacher, made the clinic a valuabletraining session.

With classes for complete begin-ners right through to more advanc-ed English equitation, every riderfound Heather able to assist withindividual problems.

Twenty riders endured the blist-ering heat, finding the clinic re-warding. Three follow-up clinicshave been arranged for August,September .and October. AnneCaldwell, will have further details.

A clinic with Fran Joyce is

planned for July 4, 5, and 6.

This clinic should be very valu-able as Fran is a well-knownVancouver Island horsewoman.Fran will be giving a high leveldressage demonstration one dayduring the clinic.

This event should not be missed

as Fran riding her impressivestallion will give an excellentperformance.

What would you do if half the

population of island disaJL JL

BY MARY WILLIAMSONI have been taken to task for

straying from the path of WorldRelief and Development. I acceptthe judgement, if World Relief isconcerned solely with "overthere". My personal feeling is thatthe Third World is right hereamong us in many respects, andwhen these concerns are brought tomy notice, I pass them along toyou.

However, to return to the ThirdWorld as generally defined

What would you do if half thepopulation of Salt Spring Islandsuddenly disappeared and nobodycould find out where they were, orhow they were, or if indeed theywere still alive?

I dare say Initially your reactionwould depend on who they were:whether they were friends of yours,or if they were people you werequite glad to see the last of! But theprobability is that half the popula-tion of Salt Spring Island wouldinclude at least one member ofyour family.

What would you do?Presumably you would inquire

from the R.C.M.P., your M.L.A.,our M.P. in Ottawa, ministers ofthe governments. And if they areprofessed ignorance? Would youwrite a letter or two to theDriftwood....perhaps even to aVictoria or Vancouver newspaper?

More Food

for Thought

What then?CONTACT FAMILY

My guess is that you would getin touch with other members ofyour family across Canada, or inother parts of the world, and askfor their help. Moral and financialsupport would be very necessary insuch circumstances.

Well, 2,500 people in Chile,opponents of the military junta,have simply disappeared. Nobodycan obtain any information as totheir whereabouts, and the powers-that-be blandly say: "There are nomore political prisoners, we declar-ed an amnesty."

What they do not say is that theamnesty was only extended tocertain prisoners, and the rest werere-classified as "common crimi-nals". But where are they? Howare they? Are they, in fact, stillalive? Why will the government notacknowledge the inquiries made byrelatives, friends and international

Last March the United NationsHuman Rights Commission issuedits fourth consecutive condemna-tion of the military junta of Chile.Red Cross International, AmnestyInternational and C.I.M.E. (Centrefor European Immigrations) havecontinued to press for information.

Canadian Memorial Church toVancouver is the headquarters ofthe hunger strikers in that city:please direct your thoughts andprayers to them. Petitions arebeing circulated on Salt SpringIsland, so please take the time toread and sign them, and take yourown measures in support of thosewho care so deeply about 2,500missing political prisoners.

The burdens and guilts are real

The stigmas of

single parenthoodBY ELIZABETH WAKD

Much has been written andmuch has been said about singleparenthood, all too often by thosewho have never experienced it.

Last week's Food for Thoughtcolumn made it possible for onesingle parent on Salt Spring towrite a little on the frequentmisconceptions of single parentfamilies. It is with some regret thatI can only speak for myself,however with most single parents Ican share this one experience: thestigma of "broken homes".

Most of us did not begin ourparenthood lives as single parents.But it happens. The burdens, theguilts (often brought on by theattitudes of society) are real. Andin the past, the very recent past,most have had to carry the guilts,the burdens and the children alone.

Support systems had not yetbeen developed. The financial bur-den for most seemed insurmoun-table and social assistance wasanother stigma (much worse forsingle parent fathers who share thesame difficulties as the mothers).Society is evolving, is becomingmore supportive and the supportsystems and resources are beingmade available and the stigmas arediminishing.DON'T WANT PITY

Single parents don't want orneed pity: another stigma. Singleparent families can be happy,constructive and unified families.True, our responsibilities are per-haps heavier in many areas, parti-cularly financially. And we can'tturn to our mate at 3 am and say,"Sarah's sick again. It's your turnto take her to the bathroom", or.

"Today is my day for sitting undermy favourite tree without interrup-tion for two hours."

Thankfully, I developed a finebackground in tackle football, fish-ing, fort building, skipping rocks,racing cars, spaceships and theFonz. They were traditionally con-tributed to the family by the malecounterpart. We must fill in theempty spaces. Perhaps we try alittle harder.

Our Children can do well in school,and in whatever they choose tcinvolve themselves in. Why not?They don't necessarily grow upwith distorted views of marriage orof family. Why should they? Manyprofessionals and back porch philo-sophers have been trying to con-vince us of this for far too long. Wesay, "It ain't necessarily so!"CARRY THEM ALONE

The report cards, the skinnedknees and illnesses, the troubles,the worries we carry alone exceptwhen friends listen with open earsand hearts, and at times, evencome to our rescue.

Stress? Distress? My greatestdistress is felt while observing thedestruction of families: single par-ent, nuclear, extended, as theresult of problems brought on bythe use of alcohol, the misuse ofmedicinal drugs, money, immorali-ties, the lack of caring and sharingand misunderstandings.

In some small measure we allshare, as parents, the same joysand sometimes the disillusion-ments in creating a stable familyunit. Support your local singleparents and we'll do -our best tosupport you!

On Tuesday, June 13, at 8 pm inthe Activity Centre, they will bepresenting two one-act plays. Thefirst one, "Not Enough Rope", wasthe G.I.S.S. entry to the B.C.Drama Festival, South Island Zone,in April, and is being revived forthis final presentation.

It is the farcical story of a younggirl, played by Lisa Fennell, whothrough her own devices, ends upin an all but impossible situation.

Help is sought from a young man(Greg Nord-Leth) and an old lady(Jane Saba) who are either unwill-ing or unable to render assistance.The final result - well, why notcome and see for yourself.

The second play is the comedy"From Five to Five Thirty", a playof sentiment and wit, with asurprise ending. An old lady,portrayed by Amy Newman, sud-denly decides to have a last fling,much to the disapproval of herthree daughters, played by Michel-le Minvielle, Glenda Woodly andDenise Kruger. The three sisterstry to put an end to their mother'sdisgraceful behaviour, only to havethe tables turned completely by therevelation of the true identity of thehousekeeper, Laurie Perkins, andan ending which turns indignationto stunning shock.

Both of these plays, produced bythe students of the Drama 9/10/11class, were presented earlier thisweek on Galiano, and now havetheir final showing on Tuesday,June 13.

Cast of the Gulf Islands Secon-dary School production, From Fiveto Five Thirty, is seen rehearsing in

preparation for the play's presenta-tion on Tuesday at Ganges.

. Meeting last Monday evening,the association discussed the pro-posed sewer system at some lengthbefore it was decided to write to theCapital Regional Board asking fordetails of the terms of reference ofthe survey.

Nick Gilbert, member of theAdvisory Planning Commission, isto present the Islands Trust withthe recommendation of the asso-ciation that the planning of theGanges sewer system be co-ordi-nated with the Ganges Plan.

The association also expressedconcern over the role of the IslandsTrust in the sewer project. A letterwill be written to the Trust enquir-ing of its position.

Planners will also propose tothe Trust that other utilities mightbe buried while the sewer excava-tions are open.CO-ORDINATION LACK

There appears to be a lack ofco-ordination in connection withzoning, it was felt. The associationwill draw the attention of theIslands Trust to this lack.

Ganges Auto-Marine was citedas an example, where the zoning ischanged "after the fact". Repeti-tion of the practice would defeatthe purpose of zoning by-laws, itwas suggested.

The matter of Ganges Auto-Marine was raised recently by theIslands Trust. The property waszoned for automotive sales andservice. With the implementationof the marine activity, the zoning isinadequate and must be changed.

The planning association sug-gested that the health departmentappears to assume no direct re-sponsibility in connection with St.Mary Lake. It acts on writtencomplaints, the meeting was told,but it does not initiate investiga-tion.

The health department recog-nizes the need for controls forfuture development, it was noted,but problems created by existentdevelopments are permitted tocontinue.

No investigations of existingfields, systems or run-off patternsare being considered, plannerswere told.

Household wastes and run-offfrom fields and roads all find theirway into the lake.

Possibility of milfoil was alsoconsidered.

Jack Fisher, Salt Spring IslandTrustee, will report to the nextplanning meeting on the homeoccupation by-law of Salt SpringIsland.

It is too early in league play todetermine the strong and weak'teams but the league is definitely!competitive with several teams in Ithe winning for top honours.

For both leagues, there are!several points that must be remem-bered.

Home team is responsible for agame ball (new) and back - up ball(relatively good), bases, and in thewomen's league, umpires.

Would all home teams pleasereport the score to Dagwood's Deli!

or it becomes very difficult to drawup standings.

All players and coaches mustrefrain from harassing the ump-ires. Remember, they are volun-teers. This is very applicable in thewomen's league where many socalled know-it-alls appear deter-mined to spoil the girls' games.

Please remember the leaguesare for recreation and fun, winningis certainly nice but get an equalenjoyment from just playing thegame.

President of the service club,Bert Timbers told Driftwood thathe is looking forward to the daywhen the system of saving lite inemergency will be included in thephysical education curriculum inGulf Islands Secondary School.

BY M. MANTLEThe softball season on Salt

Spring Island began in earnestFriday evening when the first gameof the Beer League Series wasplayed at Ganges.

In an amazing show of sports-manship and good manners, not asingle insult was directed at um-pire Suzanne Gagnon.

Scrub was the name of the gameand play lasted for a full two andhalf hours, during which time fanswere treated to some spectacularhome runs.

First homer of the game was along, hard drive into the stands byveteran batter T. Richards. It was aclose one though, due to quickaction on the part of outfielder ArtMunneke. The ball arrived at homeplate a fraction of a second afterRichards, who made a spectaculardive and slid into the plate (andcatcher Debbie Lafrance) in thenick of time.

Speaking of Nick, Humphreysalso tallied up a few runs, butnothing really worth mentioning.Dave Roland was an excellentperformer outfield, where he spentconsiderable time chasing balls.

Among other stars were AliceRichards and Lynn Baker who aremembers of the women's leagueteam Kayes' Cuties, and provedtheir prowess as pitchers.

A splendid display of fly-catch-ing was seen throughout the game.There was also a splendid displayof attempted fly-catching on thepart of veteran short stop DerekSowden who also took the oppor-tunity, on a number of occasions, toautograph the ball.

Next game of the series is beingplanned for Friday evening.

League standings are not avail-able because unfortunately no onebothered to keep track of lastweek's scores.
