a 6t was an irresistible urge
B that has prompted the report of
ee! my impression of this little town -
| - Terrace.
| §6©6. Earlier in the summer, the.
# controversy was raging over -
# the power of B,C.'s Minister of
eel Health Mr. Loffmareh (who
me was called “dictator” because.
m of his new job of determining
Oe the areas and usage of doctors
) in the better-known and more -
@ heavily populated areas of .
Vancouver and Victoria.
In fact, the Vancouver “‘hot-'
line” radio shows were at. this .
] time so involved with this topic
that it took preedence over oth- -
er equally important °

happenings, It was during this’ -

time, as‘I was contemplating -
J transferring to the Terrace, |

.that the term
would creep into comments and:

." eallers and commentators alike:

would insinuate that, if a person

were sent into these areas, they.

would be rewarded’ in salaries
-or that even a roster-like-

sysiem of shifting doctors to “journey” whieh covered about -

areas throughout B.C,

Also at this time the late
summer had developed into a
sizzler, andsome thoughts were
at times occupied by the coming
PNE.

At this tiniealso the late -

summer had developed a sizzler_
