fits into the play,”

Via Rail officials visit

Three officials from
VIA Rail Canada visited
Terrace on Oct.3 to
discuss the proposition
of building a new sta-

_tionette in Terrace. The

company representatives

conducted an ‘“‘informa-.

tion’’ meeting with the
mayor and several coun-
cil members, at which
‘plans were discussed in
early stage detail. In
about six months an-
other meeting will be
held to. cover the issue

further when more speci-:
fic plans have been
reached,

Meanwhile at the con-
ference, sketches of a
standard building were
viewed to allow Terrace
officials to get an idea of

what the building may

look like. More specific
sketches should be ready
for the upcoming meet-
ings. ‘‘The sketches were

“quite good,’’commented

Bob Hallsor, Clerk-
administrator for the Ci-

ty of Terrace. No final.

decisions have been
made by either party, but
both groups were satis-
fied with the outcome of
the raeeting.

comes alive

with other cast members
should be made in order
to develop personal
traits.” The part of
Dracula is not the lead
role, but actors feet that
every part is important in
any play.

According to - Rosz-
mann, theatre is a pic-
ture which reflects life’s
interactions in a way that
people enjoy identifying
with. ‘People should
enter the theatre and
leave their troubles at the
door; the audience must
be willing to relax and
enjoy the make-believe
world that actors
create,’’ Roszmann com-
mented. Willingness to
use the imagination
makes the cast’s efforts
more worth while.

“'The cast of Young
Dracula is a keen bunch
who are hard working,
and willing to expend
energy to create a splen-
did picture; I think that
there is enough energy to
pull off some fine per-

formances,*’’ Roszmann -

said. Although he does
admit that actors have
their limitations, Rosz-
mann believes that a
good actor can assume a
wide spectrum of roles

%

and do it in a way that
other performers may

‘not picture the part.

“I am really glad to
see organizations like the
Little Theatre,’’ Rosz-
mann stated, ‘‘because
these organizations give
people who wish to per-
form a chance to do so.”*
Roszmann. has par-
ticipated in a good
number of amateur pro-
ductions and enjoys the
part of Dracula. “The
role is very rewarding,’’
the actor commented,
‘it is a lot of fun for so-
meone who likes to ham
it up.”? Roszmann feels
that the part gives off
tremendous energy; even
though the character is
very old. ‘*The Dracula
part is that of an old
crank who lives life that
the rest of us would like
to do on Hallowe’en.”’

‘Essentially acting is
like the playing that chil-
dren do and that is where
the fun comes in.’’ Rosz-
mann admits that he
thinks that performers
will be nervous on Nov.
7 and 8, but he feels that
everyone’s first lines will
transform the whole set
into the world of Young
Dracula. ;

Terrace Review — Wednesday, October 22, 1986 23

Small business
aid promoted _

TERRACE — Horatio
Alger was a larger-than-
life figure in American
history who seemed to be
the living embodiment of
what has come to be
known as “the American
Dream’’. Alger rose
from humble beginnings
to wealth and prosperity,
and his contention that
anyone can achieve suc-
cess through hard work,
enterprise and deter-

mination is asserted in

several books.

Frank Reiter, northern
division manager for the
Federal Business De-
velopment Bank, recent-
ly told a Terrace and
District Chamber of

Commerce meeting that-.

the American Dream has
spilled over into the

North in the form of in--

creasing popularity for
small business ventures.
Times have changed,
however, since Alger
wrote his saga across the
blank vistas of the
American consciousness
in the late nineteenth
century. ‘‘The Horatio
Alger story is still possi-

ble today,”’ Reiter said,”

“but it’s much more dif-
ficult.”’

Reiter stated that 95
percent of all businesses
in Canada grossing less
than $1,000,000 per year
fall into the category of
local, independently
operated enterprises.

Those same businesses

produce 40 percent of
the goods and services
sold in Canada and

employ 70 percent of the.

work force. Reiter said
he believes the idea of
“being your own boss’’
accounts in large part for

the growth of small

business and the substan-
tial role it plays in the
general economy.

One ongoing barrier to -

the development of small
business, a problem that
has become more intense
in the past few years, is
availability of capital.
**Since the recession the
chartered banks have
become ‘gun-shy’ and
more deposit-oriented,”’
Reiter said. The problem
is being addressed by a
variety of Federal
Business Development
Bank programs, in-
cluding one Reiter called
a financial ‘‘matchmak-
ing’’ service. The service
attempts to put local in-
vestors in contact with
local idea people. Reiter

_ pointed out that by far

the greatest part of
northwest money avail-
able for investment is
channelled through
chartered banks and in-
vestment services to
remote financial centers
such
New York. ‘‘Canadians
have a far higher overall
rate of savings than

the FBDB

as Toronto and

Americans do,” Reiter
said, “Out of every.
dollar earned, 12 cents
go into savings, yet when
the banks are approach-
ed there is no equity
capital available.”’

Reiter also had advise
for individuals who are
already involved in a
small _ business enter-
prise, a principle he
termed ‘‘bombproof-
ing’’. ‘‘Be sensitive to
the changing nature of
markets and the
economy. Chances are .
that two-thirds of the ©
customers you have now
will not be with you five
years from now. Use the
good times to restructure -
the financing of your
business in order to sur-
vive the bad times. Use
professionals, such as
consultants and account-
anis, to continually im-
prove your business —
no business is so well-run
that it can’t stand im-
provement, Finally, ad-.
mit your .own limita-
tions; you can’t run
every aspect of the
business perfectly.
Determine where you
can benefit from outside
help, and get the help
you require."’ Some of
that help, he concluded,
is available through ad-
visory programs from
such as
Automated Information
for Management (AIM).
The FBDB will -be
holding seminars
throughout the north-
west this week in con-
junction with Canadian

/S5mall Business Week.
