Make January abig month _ for new subs January could be the month of victories. The prognosis is good: with last week’s Supreme Court decision allowing thousands of formerly - disfranchised voters to cast their ballot in Thursday’s election, Van- couver might see the return of an even larger COPE majority to the school board, and an anti- cutbacks board in Cowichan. COPE’s policies of adequate funding for education and a return of autonomy to Icoal school trustees make it the civic _ | alliance that deserves the support of Vancouver voters. We at the Tribune think the paper also deserves your support. Just as we'd like to see a victory in the school board race, we’d like to see Our paper score a victory with a successful conclusion to our 1985-86 subscription drive. We've achieved, with the hard work of our readers and suppor- ters, 461 renewals and 316 new subs — but that’s still a long way from victory, which in our case is 500 new subs by Jan. 31. (We remind our readers of the special offer: a copy of Fighting on the labor struggles of the 30s, for only $4, or Fighting Heritage and Ben Swankey’s The Tory one year sub.) During the next few days, let’s tory for public education in this province — and the paper which fights for it.
