TERRACE — Two local children needing orthopedic care are being helped by a local service organization. ‘The two are among five in the northwest being assisted by having medical, living and travel costs paid for through the Shriner organization, says a spokesman. Jim Macintosh of the Kitimat-Terrace Shrine Club said the assistance is part of the Shriner effort which has hospitals for orthopedic and ‘arthritic care and burn units in North America. In B.C., the Shriners have put money.into a wing for or-]. thopedic care and for burns at the B.C. Hospital for Crippled Children in Van- couver. . “'There’s no cost at all to the children or their families. ‘It’s all taken care of,’ said Macintosh. Both of: the local children are. .. going, through assessments’ at a Shriner facility in Portland, Oregon. The Shriners -also have an _ingham, Washington. ‘In addition to the hospital wing in Vancouver, the Shriners have available or- thopedic care in Winnipeg -and. arthritic care in Mon- ‘ treal.- Money raised from the * Shriner circus at the arena hére: June. 24 goes toward such: care, Shows are. at 4:30 p.m, and 7:30 p.m. “to November, Iskut Valley north of here.

They said there were ‘problems | co we said look elsewhere,” said Cooper. Although. the Nisga’ a Tribal .

All of those fit the Terrace area, Cooper also said, the location being studied is not in danger of problems because of land claims. : “They are not ina itigious claim — one under litigation or one that may be in the prospect of,’” he said. That ° would point to the Tsimshian claim which stretches from halfway between Terrace and Prince Rupert, south to around Lakelse Lake. and then ‘south to Kitwanga . toward Prince Rupert. © _ Cooper also said the mill need not be near its first intended _ wood supply because ofthe * _ possibility of trading pulp quali-. y ty wood with Skeena Cellulose.

Skeena Cellulose vice presi- dent Reg Lightfood said last week it and Orenda have talked bu! nave not reached any agree- ment. ‘* There are interesting oppor- tunties’ for both parties,” he said.

What was needed now was to determine when that growth would occur ‘and what port should be playing what specialized role without duplicating public money.’” - While Prince Rupert was already set up as a bulk loading port and would continue in that role, he suggested the Kitimat facility could perhaps be developed as a “‘container-style facility”’ serving small manufac- turers. ’ Parker, a strong proponent of the port, has said there is room for two ports in the nor- thwest. He’s also said that shippers prefer having a choice of ports in case something should hap- pen to make one inoperable, And, he said that. competition between ports would bring bet- . ter service and pricing to shipp- ing customers, a ENTERPRISES LTD. ~ Invites you to their new store: at 4925 Keith Ave. in Terrace ~ COME IN AND MEET Terrace Standard, Wednesday, JUNE 19, 1991 — Page A15 “Visit Vancouver's” e Minimum 2 night stay + | Saturday - Sunday only © ¢ Tivolis Bar & Grill, cozy Execulive Lounge « Gov't, corporate, group & tour rates also available tb py “All Suite Hotel’ ae * Based on double occupancy © Friday - Saturday or © Complimentary 24 hour airport shuttle . ® Indoor pool & jacuzzi, complimentary membership to Fitness World A» Within walking distance to two large shopping malls, a §6. theatres, restaurants, etc. | 1-800-663-2878 7211 Westminster Hwy, Richmond, B.C. v 6X 1A35 ae lame: Dematra Alexandar Darvaudis & Time ef Birth: May 8, 1991 at 10:03 pm nae ett 10 tbs. 3 oz.
