Swimmers and tennis players complained loudly to the Sidney
Recreation Commission last week about lack of factilities.

Parent Teacher Association members were critical of the tentative
plans for an ice rink instead of aswimming pool and for a few minutes,

A large campaign is being
planned to promote a skating and
curling ice rink as a Saanich
Peninsula Centennial 71 project,
but P.T.A. spolesman Mrs.
Shirley Foley protested, ‘How
many lives are saved by the
teaching of ice skating? In this
water-bound area, swimming
instruction is vital!’

Several mothers chimed - in
with supporting statements and
Mrs. Neva Pennie objected to this
unorganized approach to solving
the need. ‘We are not using the
recreation commission
properly,” she said, “it is all

“arms and legs and no head.”

the matter. will: be discussed

Association meeting.

Grade 11 student at.
Claremont Senior Secondary
School, is going to Japan on July
8, with 70 classmates.

Linda is one of about 10 Indian
students at Claremont who are
trying to raise funds for the three-
week trip to Expo in Japan and
Korea travelling on a charter
flight sponsored by: the Saanich
Credit. Union. Cost of the: trip
organized by teaching staff at the
school is approximately § $550 per
student.

On their behalf, the Saanich
Indian Education. Association, .a
parent organization affiliated
with the Tsartlip Indian School,

wrote to the Indian. Affairs.

Department in. Ottawa. The
Indian Affiars offered. to pay
dollar for dollar any amount the
students were. able to raise
themselves, up to 9275 each.

For the boys ‘at least, Laurie
and. Reg Underwood, Earl
Claxton, Eric Pelkey and Frank

Cooper, and perhaps one or two”

others; the new. target of $275 is
not too. difficulf.to reach. .They
are able to work at odd jobs after
school and on weekends.

For ithe. two--girls,

even this figure seemed hopeless.

The girls tramped all over for

jobs, says. Claremont: teacher,
Mrs. R.G. Phillips, and Belinda
alone was able to get a job doing
housework for $5 per. week.

... the lucky one

Linda was not able to geta job
at. all. Her plight came to the
notice of a member of the Loyal
Order of the Moose, and through
the efforts of this new and active
Saanichton organization, and its

‘Governor, Charles F. Tennant, of

7656 Wallace Dr., a grant of $275
was approved and will be
presented to the lucky student
soon,

Tronically, since it was Belinda
who through a talk persuaded the
Saanich. Indian Education
Association to back their appeal
to Ottawa, itis Belinda who faces
the prospect of not going to Japan
with the others. Even saving
every penny of the money she
earns doing housework, she
admits it will be far short of the
required amount.

Meanwhile, plans are moving

ahead for the exciting trip. .

Organizer, Mrs. Phillips, says it
