junction with Vimy Night.
' At the time of writing this

your correspondent, who

due to conflicting com-
mitments was not able to
attend Vimy Night, is not in
possession of details but it
would appear that although
the turnout was not as large
as in some past years those
in attendance had an en-
joyable evening. The Ladies

Auxiliary, as always, served

a truly beautiful meal.

Further details should be

available for next weeks

dispatch.

Hight Ordinary members,
one Associale member and
five members of the Ladies
Auxiliary travelled to

. Kitimat this past weekend
for the Zone Conference and

Leadership Training

Seminar. It was the general

consensus of opinion that it

was a most interesting and
informative session.

This meeting was the last
ot her two year term for
zone Commander Winnie
Grey. Although nominated
to run for another two year
term Zone Commander
Grey declined with regret
the nomination and
Comrade Jim Williams
‘became Zone Commander
elect.

Masset was chosen as the
site of the Fall Zone meeting
next September.

First Vice President of
Provincial Command;

Women's lib
course offered?

What is a Women’s
Studies Course? Why not
have a People Study
Course? Is it a course tor
womens libbers?

These are frequent
questions asked of the
Women's Studies Advisory
Committee at the Northwest
Community College, I would
like Lo briefly answer the
above questions. Womens
Studies focuses on women's
role in the past and present,
encouraging all students,
male and female, to gain
more appreciation, un-
derstanding and knowledge
about the functioning of
human societies throughout

the world, Aspects that may
be studied are how women
participaled in a variety of
social institutions such as
the family, the economy, the
arts and education during
various historical periods
with an emphasis on Canada
as well as comparative data
from other societies.

Next fall there will be a
Women's Studies Course
offered in Terrace with
transferrable academic
credit to B.C. universities
and colleges. Hopefully
male and female will
equally participate in a
worthwhile educational
course.

A bill designed to

of motor vehicle dealers was
introduced recently by the
Minister of Consumer and
Corporate Affairs, the
Honourable K. Rafe Mair.

“The -Motor Dealers
Licensing Act will protect
consumers and businesses
alike,” the minister said,
“by making it more difficult
for unscrupulous and
financially irresponsible
people to get into or remain
in the motor dealer
business. The act clarifies
many procedures that have

This timely review of
motor dealer - licensing
provisions came about
partly because of com-
plaints from motor dealer
associations whe noted that
some unscrupulous dealers
were allowed to take out
licenses, Trade associations
also expressed concern
about administrative
powers that were not spelled
out in the act,” Mair added.

“T wish to thank the Motor
Dealer Association and the
Auto Dealer Association for
their cooperation and their
contribution to the
development of licensing
provisions,” the minister
said.
