In this case, it’s three as in Gevremont, Lalonde and Lemiaux - the top amateur draft selections made by the Canuck scouting staff last June in Montreal, Poite met behind closed doors for more than three hours with David Schatia and Larry Sazant, legal advisors for the three graduating 20-year-olds from the Montreal Junior Canadiens.

Camping: the pioneer way BYCLAUDETTE SANDECKI Whenever you register in a campground where the washrooms are clean and the grounds are free of litter, you thank two people -- the manager, and the neat campers who stayed there before you. Beeause it takes much more than the diligent efforts of the manager alone to achieve and maintaina firstclass campsite. It requires, too, the fullest cooperation of every camper. How long would a washroom look freshly scrubbed if every camper fails to brush the gravel off his feet before he enters; is too Jackadaisal to flush the toilet; and then leaves a scum of whisker stubs and soap around Watery deaths It's better to be an unclassified drowner than any other according to stalistics compiled by the B.C, Safety Council. Unclassified drownings have accounted for only two deaths out of a total of 129 drownings that have occured in this province this year. Another interesting stalisiic is that 16 people have drowned in their cars (five during July) as compared with a total of 10 when swimming. Falling into a body of water is the most dangerous of all with 45 people drowning so far this year (12 during July). However, the number of individuals with swimming abilities must be increasing more rapidly than this province's growth rate. Todate only 129 people have drowned this year compared with 169 during a corresponding period in 1970. Applicants are now being accepted for Terrace’s hunter training course. . Local hunters along with ‘ others across the nation will soon be subject to the Federal Government's safety regulations.

How will the washroom look by the time 30 or 40 campers have washed up that morning? ‘ : T'll tell you how it will look - Hike all those second rate campsites that tourists are forever complaining about to me. As though I am in a position to change things. Sure, I sympathize when they tell me they paid a ransom for a campsite and then — the washrooms were so filthy they couldn't force themselves into the shower, though they — had paid fora shower. ] sympathize when they describe washroom floors littered with crumpled paper towels, cobwebs and -spiders in the corners, toilets that never flush, and garbage barrels overflowing on to the ground. But though upset about facilities they have paid for and not been able to use, they are not upset enough to do anything constructive about it. Why don't they make a move to eliminate the conditions and better the prospects for the people who may be staying in those same campsites next year? But they don’t. They ery to me, but what can I do about someone else's campbground? What they should do is complain directly to the people who have the power to improve the situation, Who are the people with the power to improve thesituation? First, there's the manager, or whoever took your money at the . time you registered. Tell him exactly what you find unacceptable about his campsite, whether the washbasins need scrubbing, the garbage cans need emptying, or the toilets need repairing so they'll flush.- And don’t be apologetic. After all you paid good money; you have every right to get the services advertised. You're not getting your money's worth if the facilities are too dirty or too broken to be used.
