Howdy all, at the last
meeting of the local C.B.'ers,
it was brought to my at-
tention that we would do well
to inform the people of our
well run organization, so in
this week's report we shail
introduce you to the many
members of the group more
commonly known as M.0.P.
(Many Odd People).

Heading our group as
president is a SUPER
THIEF, while the secretary
is a giant SUPER COOKIE
{and no, it cannot be eaten!)
making this seem like a
typical family run
organization. A huge
machine, what is often
referred to as a ROCK-
CRUSHER, ground his way
through and made himself
known as the vice president
while all the time a BUM-
BLE BEE buzzed around
getting new memberships.
Unlike other clubs, we pay
our dues in the form of a MAI
TAI and that’s about as
treasurey as you can get.
The directors consist of
someone's LITTLE MAMA
watching a RAIN-DROP ona
piece of CEDAR WOooD,
while the sky stays bright as
the LITTLE DIPPER tries
to find the Ways and Means
to get there. For publicity
the club does its best to rely
on their mascot, a DENO,
who tries to stay out of the
way of all the little PEB-
BLES. '

Our place of meeting is on
aLITTLE SHRUB where we
all hold on to a BRAIDED
ROPE soas not to fall off and
geta STINGER as they tend
to SNAP-ON pretty fast. Our
own means of built in
RADAR tells us that a
WOLVERINE ia stalking
nearby even though a
GRASSHOPPER is jumping
about. To be sure there's
never a GREY CLOUD in the
aky at our meetings so we
can always watch the BIG
DIPPER do its and
twinkle away until the
SANDMAN decides it’s time
that we all get a bit’
SLEEPY, only then do we go
10-7 and BEEP BEEP our
way out of there and make
MOOSE TRACKS until next
time. See you there?

To make amends now, let
it be known that I goofed off,
as usual, and that the names
given are in their respective
order as heading the locally
yun BBC GRS, and who
support the local charities
through the various func-
tions they have throughout
the year. This club is made
up of hard working people
who do their best to help
others whenever they can
and they should be thanked
accordingly. A lot of people
are misinformed as to what
C.B.'ers are, thinking they
are just a lot of grown up
kids with nothing better to do
than talk on the radio. But
first of all, to be a good
C.B.’er is to be able and want
to help others in all walks of
life, and these people do just
that, Sure, we all goof off
now and then, and I think [
bead that list, but our hearts
are in the right places so
when you hear or read of a
dance or other do that is put

Paper
shortage
hurting

COQUITLAM, B.R& (RL
— Publisher KR, D. Taylor
said Thursday The
Columbian has turned down
advertising and commercial
printing contracts because of
a shortage of newsprint.

MacMillan Bloedel, a
major supplier of newsprint
to British Columbia
newspapers, has put its
customers on a quota sys-
tem. A company spokesman
said the move was caused by
a world-wide shortage of
newsprint, not local issues.

Taylor sald B.C, Forest
Products and Crown
Zellerbach have increased
their newsprint shipments to
‘The Columbian but the
amount is not enough to
cover the effects of Mac-
Millan Bloedel’s rationing.

He said the shortfall is re-
stricting the size and cir-
culation of the suburban
evening newspaper, both of
which increased since the
Vancouver Sun and Province
were closed Nov. | by a labor
disprte.

“The American
management of MacMillan
Bloedel is exempllfying the
intent of any corporate glant-
maximization of profits,"
Taylor said,

“MacMillan Bloedel feels
it is more important to bring
in U.S. dollars than inceaze
local industry.”

on by the C.B.'ers, Go your
best to altend and help us to
help others,

On the less serious side
now, we would like to
congratulate our BRAIDED
ROPE for her recent win of
Terrace's goony bird and
also for her win at some
winnings. Guess the steaks
are on you next time, eh

tty?

Everyone wish LITTLE
MAMA a happy birthday the
next time around, as I recall
she's the lady who received a
gift and who proceeded to
sing Happy Birthday to
herself all the while opening
her “gift” only to find that it
was some of her own dishes
that she had lent out to
another party some time
back and who had taken this
long to return them.
T wasn't your birthday
anyhow, eh L.M.?

A five from TWISTED
STRING to TOLLIE. Gosh! 1
forgot what it was!

GK. folks, before 1 go 10-7
for the night, a reminder to
get your tickets in to the one
SUPER THIEFSKI and
hopefully we'll catch you on
the return, till then 1 expect
you to all have yourselves a
week week, take. care and
keep amilin’, Hey hon! Say
goodnight. 3-3 for now. |

Directors elected

The Terrace and District
Community Services Society
recently held: their annual
general meeting at which
time the incumbent directors
were re-elected.

Elected for a two year
term were Roy Greening,
Dave Gellately, Jane Booth,
Doug Mumford, Phil
Stewart, Judy Vandergucht,
and Frances Long. Mary
Boucher was elected a
director for the first time.
This leaves four vacancies to
be filled. David Pease will
remain the appointed
director for Terrace district
council,

Roy Greening was re-
elected chairman hy ac-
clamation, Dave Gellately
became first vice-chairman,
Phil Stewart was elected 2nd
vice-chairman and Judy
Vandergucht remained as
secretary.

Concern was expressed by
Greening at the lack of
people interested in
becoming directors of the
society. The society, he said,
is very active with a budget
close te half a million
dollars. The society sponsors
projects in every facet of the
community and it is
essential that more com-
munity members take an
active interest in the society.

Interviews have been
taking place for project
managers for the Women's
Growth Centre and the
Family Violence Research

Project. With the resignation
of the Volunteer Bureau
project manager, this
position will be adverlised
through Canada Manpower.

A visitor to the meeting
was Jana Sieben who was
looking for support for the
society for Birthrite, an
organization branch is in the
process of being iormed in
Terrace. Birthrite actively
supports the pregnant
women with counselling and
literature to make the right
choice about her child. The
branch will be seeking
funding to establish an office
and at that time the society
will sponsor the project.

The next meeting of the
society will be held Dec. 1! in

the Skeenaview Lounge. Hf .

you are interested in
working in the society call

635-3178, which is the society
