During all of this search, a sailor
sat in ‘his RCN vehicle, not paying
‘too much attention.. But when the

something: in his pocket... > -. oS
“Now. what: an 1 going to do?” I

me that I should telephone Morrison
Motors, who have. a large -ring .of
keys: to fit: ‘old cars and if-I was
lucky, would ‘find “one: to.fit... This
I immediately. did and :a:nice lady
came right around and helped for
a few-minutes but could “not stay,
so left the large ring of keys to be
tried.

Maybe 50 or. 60 keve later, one of
the keys did fit; and this lady in
distress was very relieved. “I took
the big key ring back to Morrison's
and immediately got three keys to
fit the car.

This was a. good lesson to this
country: gal: and she is very grate-
fut to the unknown ‘sailor as if he
not come along’ with’ this. ad-
vice. it would have, made a’) much
bigger. problem. “As Jit was, I. was
able to get my shopping done and

“What caused ‘all ‘the activity
among’ the power boats on a wet
and miserable day. like Sunday? A
question many a-North Saanich resi-
dent must have asked without -find-
ing a. satisfactory. answer, Here is
the explanation.
While the Canadian Power Squad-
ron stresses -safety in: boating and
does not advocate putting out in the
face of gale warnings or messing
about in fog -if -it.can be avoided,
it does. try to: prepare yachtsmen to
handle these situations when. they
cai’t -be-avoided..° The .19. vessels

FROM sw ARTZ BAY
Start. ofthe cruise: Was al: Swartz
Bay, departure ‘times: varied: with
the speed’ of individual vessels: so
that “arrival at Birds “Eye Cove
would be about. 12:30 p.m. I glanced
at my watch as I made. fast the
bow. line’ and .the time was 12:28:
From. Swartz.-Bay- two «compass
courses had. taken ‘us to Hatch Point
and a ‘third ‘to Burial Island in San-
sum Narrows.” ‘Then we proceeded,
to Octopus Point where ‘the meas-

‘ured mile: was run in’ both diree-.

tions... The: average: speed on the
two runs: gave the | ‘ship’ s speed -at
whatever . RPM: (engine speed) was
used,.-In ‘our case 1900 RPM gave a
speed. ‘of 7. 3] knots... “The. students
charted all - courses . on:-the. charts

_| the

Sall Spring” Tshind”. Chamber: of
reply. to criticisms levelled at. it -by
“newly... organized » South. Salt
Spring’ “Association regarding: the
proposed . removal. of the ‘Fulford
ferry wharf to Isabella Point.

Chamber resolution to request the
B.C. Ferry Authority ‘to study such
a move ‘has been . strongly. opposed
by the new association:

The suggested move has been _pro-

the past 30 years; ‘the chamber said.
“The reasons ‘for. the move are
obvious: ferry traffic through. Ful-

more frequency: of service is neces-
sary; . the: present: ship provides a
most. uncomfortable vessel for. a’ 40-
minute - vide, whereas it would~ be
quile’ endurable for a "15-minute
ride, it was ‘stated: - Parking facili-
ties cat the present. dock are. none
existent, it. was: noted. ;

» Forry: service: is provided asca
convenience” to. the” general:
and not just for a’ few: businessmen
at Fulford: the chamber said’
BETTER COMMUNITY ;

“Fulford. should “be tble’ to
velop into a far. better and more
prosperous: community without the
ferry cluttering ‘it’ up,
closest community with>:a -water
system. to .the new. site.” -«.

The chamber. also took issue with
the. South Salt Spring Association's
statement ‘that. the move will: cost
‘several million’ dollars...”

“Since : the .. Long “Harbor - Road
was Jet: at contract ‘for $159, 000. and
the ..Ganges breakw. ater at under
$70,000, and. both.-are ‘comparable
to- the required :items. at. Isabella, it
sounds: as if. the: Fulford figure ° is

eight to 10," the chamber continued.
