Those in attendance agreed with organizers Maureen - Bostoc and Donna Bannister that there isa need for such a centre in Terrace. Between the time the proposal was first mentioned and the meeting, a matter of weeks, Bostock and Bannister heard of two rapes in town. The purpose of the centre would be to help women like these victims with un- derstnading and support. Bostock wants a com- fortable environment in the centre so the victim will have a piace to settle down and ga her wits. ; The centre would also serve as an information centre. It would help women deal with police and the courts by telling them what to =—_ expect in rape proceedings. - “An important aspect of a rape centre is to help women undertand the adversary system of court’’ said Bostock. “‘In a rape trial, the vicitm is represented by the prosecutor, not by a lawyer retained by herself.” RCMP Constable Marjan Comadina said the centre would have to work with the police. ‘‘Unless you en- courage the victim to call us right away, there’s no use in having a centre’ Comadina said. The police have to verify that a rape did in fact take place betore the victim can procede with action. It is easiest and most accurate if a police-appointed doctor conducts an examination as soon after the incident as possible. Comadina said that things have improved in sexual assault cases since she and another female constable came to town in July. “We can talk to victims in a way that our male counterparts cannot,” she said. Saturday’s meeting dealt mainly with rape although Bostock mentioned the abortion counselling aspect ‘of the centre in her opening remarks. “IT would like to make it clear that the centre would not have a stand on abortion — we are neither for it nor against it, but we do want to help women faced with the question,” she said. Bostock said that she wants the rape relief and abortion counselling centre to work in conjunction with existing services. ‘‘We’d like to talk to women’s groups about our centre." It was. dicided that Bostock, Bannister and a core group would go ahead and write a constitution to New Year’s Eve will never be _ By STANLEY JOHNSON NEW YORK (AP) — There will still be a New Year's Eve this year, but it will not be the same for tens of millions of North Americans—for the first time since 1923 Guy Lom- bardo will not lead his Royal Canadians in Auld Lang Syne, The Canadian-born creator of “‘the sweetest music this side of heayen” died Saturday night in Houston’s Methodist Hospital of a breathing problem associated with the onary artery trouble ‘or which he was admitted Oct. 27. His wife, the former Lillibelle Glenn of Cleveland, Ohio, whom he married 51 years ago, was at his bedside. Arrangements for a funeral service near his Freeport, Long Island, home were being made Sunday. Lombardo was 76 and had led a band for 63 years. He started at 12 with four other youngsters playing for women’s clubs in London, Ont., his birthplace. He was named Gaetano after his father, animmigrant Italian tailor. UNBROKEN SUCCESS The Lombardo orchesta proved to be an unbroken success story for more than half a century, and for many people his New Year’s Eve telecast was a traditional part of the holiday. Lom- rdo sold more than 400 million records and for the last 40 years never made less than $1 million a year. Last summer, his revival of the Broadway stage show Finian’s Rainbow at Jones the same for the most successful big band in music history. Asked the reason for his perennial popularity mbardo once said: “It’s simple. People like to dance,” The Royal Canadians had a bland, soothing style, which infuriated lovers of pure jazz and most critics of popular music. Nevertheless, in 1965, during the height of the Beatles’ Lombardo beat the English group at the box office, ‘awing larger audiences on one tour than the pop group had in the same facilities. Lombardo admitted that not all the people loved his music all the time. “We lose them in their teens, but we catch them u later,” he once said. “Sooner or later we get them all and when we get them, we keep them.” MANY INQUIRIES A CBS official said Sunday the network received more telephoned inquiries about Lombardo’s death than it did about those of Elvis Presley earlier this year or Bing Crosby a few weeks ago, Some of his biggest hits were Little White Lies, Boo Hoo, You’re Driving Me Crazy and Seems Like Old Times. Auld Lang Syne was the band’s theme song long before Lombardo played it over radio Dec.31, 1929, from the Hotel Roosevelt Grill in Manhattan. The Royal Canadians layed every New Year’s ve at the Roosevelt for year after year and, when the hotel announced his departure for the Waldorf- Astoria 13 years ago, Time magazine commented: “It was like Athens announcing the departure of the Acropolis.” REGIONAL DISTRICT OF KITIMAT-STIKINE Public notice Is ‘aiven to the electors of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine that a poll has become necessary at foe alactionnow pardta arene Ihave: ’ Hof srpellt nigral boli oe ea a allt and further thet the persons duly nominated as candidates at popularity ~ Pe dee ee i SNK SSR become a society under. the Society's Act.

(AP) — Olympia Brewing Co, faces $55,-000 in fines imposed by the states of Oregon and Washington for allegedly paying some taverns to Olympia beer. Brewery officials made public the fine and a tem- porary suspension from r sales in Oregon on Friday.. Olympia officials said that in consenting to the penalties, the brewery was not admitting the violations. Kenneth Underdahl, administrator of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, said the penalties resulted from a ninemonth in- preven of Olympia Brewing. He said the OLCC fine af $30,-000 against Olympia was the largest penalty ever levied by the commission for violation of liquor laws. The fine and a four-week suspension from beer sales iil be cut in half if Olympia accepts a one-year probationary period, Un- derdahl said, SUSPENDED 30 DAYS The Washington State Liquor Control Board and the company signed a consent agreement under which the brewery is sus- pended for 30 days from supplying wholesalers. That suspension will be vacated on payment of a $25,000 penalty, a board member said. OLCC investigators found that payments of $78,000 were funneled through a Portland-based Olympia wholesaler under the guise of payment for fictitious ’ cOmputer services. Underdan! said the ents were improper Inducements to retailers and are prohibited by Oregon’s liquor laws. ‘In the common ver- nacular, it is ‘commercial bribery,” he said. . PAYMENT MADE The OLCC investigation also said that $30,000 was channeled, through a third- party company owned by an Olympia vice president, to a corporation running a chain of franchised taverns. In Teturn the corporation agreed to use Olmpia draft beer in all of its taverns, Underdahl said. . A statement released on behalf of Llyod Diddy, Olympia vice president for public affairs, said the company had begun its own investigation. He said he was confident that when the investigation is complete, it will show that the alleged: payments were “confined in large part toa three-year period when the company faced intense competitive pressures.” The OLCC investigation also turned up allegations that Olympia funneled $20,000 in Washington through a banker to poli- ticians for support on legislation that would have owed dog racing in that state, Underdahl said. Olympia beer is available at British Columbia government liquor stores.

Special tothe Herald Maureen Forrester, in- ternationally known Canadian Contralto ap- red at the R..E.M. Lee heatre last Saturday evening. Acclaimed as one of the world’s greatest voices, Miss Forrester treated her appreciative audience to works of Haydn, Wolf and Fleming. Opening with Ariadne Auf Naxos by Haydn, Forrester sanas a woman abandonded by her lover on a Greek Island. In this long dramatic work she conveys the woarmth of a woman to her man, her fears for his safety, to her sheer fury when she realizes her own perilous predicament. The tessitura of this work ex- poses the beaufiful quality. of Miss Forrester’s lower register. Ten songs from the Italienisches Liederbuch by Hugo Wolf delifgted the audience as Miss Forrester kindly offered a few words of translation before each. Here John Newmark, Miss Forrester’s accompanist of long standing became her equal partmer as the two balanced these lovely short songs of contrasting nature with a fitting mood and delicate nuance. Seldom have I ever heard the Confession Stone of Canadian composer sung with such compelling conviction. The poems by Owen Dobson tell of the Virgin Mary's feelings as she reflects on incidents in the life of Jesus. The religious text of these songs are secondary to me to t instictive feelings of a Mother to her son. Agian Miss Forrester’s dramatic flare coupled with a magnificent yoice held the audience spell-boubd. All too soon the evening closed with threer Ap- placian folk songs of delightful character and an encore hinting to an unexplored side of Miss Forrester. congratulated for providing this evening of magic. It won't soon be forgotten.
