A significant feature of the
educational seminars con-
ducted by the Regional Edu-
cation Department during the
past year was the interest

shown by IWA members who
had little previous experience
in union activity. This con-
firmed the belief that new
members benefit by familiar-
ization with the union’s aims

as an incentive for their par-
ticipation in IWA affairs.

Local Union arrangements
for two-day seminars at Wil-
liams Lake, Terrace, Radium,
and Camp Woss attracted
large groups of IWA mem-
bers from the surrounding
areas who expressed their
appreciation.

Advantage was taken of
the opportunity to conduct
courses at Labour Council
week-end institutes which

nished all those attending.

Course subjects included:
Collective Bargaining, Auto-
mation, Job Stewards’ Re-
sponsibilities, Conduct of Un-
ion Meetings, Labour History,
and Trade Union Basics. Lo-
cal Union officers presided
and Regional and Interna-

proved extremely valuable.

The program originally
scheduled was interrupted by
Coast negotiations. As direct-
ed by the Regional Negotiat-
ing Committee, IWA mem-
bers were constantly inform-
ed of bargaining develop-
ments. Simultanéously, in-

IWA for the general public
through news media and spe-
cial articles appearing in vari-
ous publications.

In co-operation with the
International Department, an
expansion of the program,
with improved techniques, is
now under consideration.

At the 19th hole, relax with a
Lucky Lager. This is one time
you can bend your arm and lift

your head.

Watch the birdie! Each year a growing army of golfers tone up desk-bound
muscles by challenging par on B.C.’s famous fairways - and Sahara sand
traps. Whether you shoot low seventies or high hundreds, there’s a new
challenge in every shot and every round - and sometimes sweet success.

Lucky Lager’s slow-brewed Western-style - a bold breed
of beer with man-sized taste and a flavour as big as all
outdoors. For big beer enjoyment, grab yourself a Lucky.
