VANCOUVER (CP) -- The
great B.C. “metal chimney
controversy appears to have
gone up In smoke.

Provincial Flre Com-
mlsstoner Gordon Anderson
reatored his. seal of approval
Wednesday to class-A° in-
sulated metal chimneys
commonly used for free-
residential
fireplaces.

Anderson atartled
fireplace owners and
manufacturers late last
week when he withdrew hia
appreval for the chimneys,

saying they pose a serious
fire hazard when used on.
stoves and fireplaces that
burn solid fuels like coal or
wood, -

Anderaon aaid in, a
statement Wednesday he
changed hia mind after
meeting with chimney
manufacturers, distributors
and dealers and represen-
tatives of the provincial
Building Standards Branch.

He said the industry will
provide any asdistance and
information necessary for
safe use of the chimneys and

IN ALERT BAY

7 | _ METAL CHIMNEYS OKAY AGAIN —
Fire commissioner, industry to set guides

that his office will issue
instructions on proper In-
Btallation and maintenance
procedures in the near
future.

The fire commissioner -

originally cited a dozen
house fires implicating the
chimneys which consist of an

outer metal shell, a layer of -

Insultion and an inner shell.

He said they tend to
correde and overheat and
that wood smoke leaves a
layer of creosote on the inner
shell which could burst into
flame in high temperatures,
The chimneys are fine for

use with clean-burning gas
or oil-fired stoves, however,

Andergon’s statement was
widely mistaken as a flat ban
on the chimneys. Some
dealers said it would drive
them out of business,
Homeowners wondered if
they would be forced to rip
out their fireplaces,

The statement was, in fact,
simply a recommendation
because an outright ban
would require a cabinet
order ta amend the
provincial building code.

Until the commissioner's

* He said it was beyond his
medical field to comment on
procedures used when Miss
Roberlson entered St.
George's Hospital in Alert
Bay on Oct. 26.

Miss Robertson, who died
30 hours after she entered
the hospital, also had taken a
heay dose of the antibiotic
letracycline shortly before
her death.

Vancouver lawyer Michael
Rhodes, representing the
Nimpkish Indian band, said:
“The cure in this case was to
administer sugar.”

“Yes,” said Patterson.

Earlier, coroner Hal
Murphy rejected an attempt
by Pickup’s lawyer, Jim
McJannet, to have Rhodes
excluded from the inquest on
grounds the Nimpkish band
had no legitimate interest in
Miss Robertson's death.

McJannet argued that the
dead girl was not a status In-
dian of a member of the
band,

The band refused to give

He also sald a legal

another heavy round of
publicity.

Pickup, an Alert Bay
doctor for 30 years, was
subject of an inquest last
June into the death of Renee
Smith, an 11-year-old
Nimpkish girl.

The inquest jurors found
Pickup negligent in treat-
ment of the girl's ap-
pendicitis, but the B.C.
College of Physicians and
Surgeons later cleared him.

Murphy warned the five
jurors — three whites and
two Indians from nearby
Port Hardy — to be careful
not to let any previous
inquest or gossip influence
them.

The Inquest continues.

nesday, some bullding in-

permits for the suspect

withheld approval! pending a
clear directive.

Dealers, meanwhile, were
inundated with phone calls
inquiring about the status of
the chimneys. Most reported
serious loss of business and
some said the fireplace panic
would force them out of busi-
