Give ’em shelter say Terrace youths

BY DIANA SMITH

One hundred and eighteen students at Caledonia Senior Secondary School want a youth hostel in Terrace.

Out of one hundred and thirty- eight students who completed a questionaire about youth hostels, twenty were opposed to the idea,

Of the 118 students in favor, most felt that a place is needed to accomodate travellers at low cost for a few nights.

Students agreed that a cheap, temporary shelter would encourage more people to visit Terrace, and help people wha were iooking for work in the area,

One s.adcit wrote on his questionaire that a hostel was needed “to provide inexpensive accomodation for groovy people who are riding across Canada on their thumbs".

Another student wrote thal “Young people should come to Terrace to see the Pacific Northwest and the beautiful Skeena Valley."

Another student wrote “Terrace is a nice place to be”.

One student suggested that a hostel could be a project for Terrace youth to support and participate in, and would pravide an opportunity for people to get to know each other.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

A few students felt that a hostel would provide recreational opportunity far people living in Terrace.

Others said it is unrealistic to expect young students to pay hotel and motel rates--tha‘ hostel charges should be not more than $1 a night,

Thirteen students believe that hostel accomodation should be free.

They wrote that the hostel should provide lodging, food and recreational facilities.

Students felt that rules governing such a hostel should be comparable to rules of other hostels; no booze, dope or sex, a limited stay and a curfew.

Others said that people should simply “clean up their awn mess” and “keep it neat’’,

“Pulting rules on people is no good but pople should respect the place and keep it decent.”

The final question asked students' opinion of the community’s responsibility to the youth of the country.

The concensus was that a community should be responsible for its youth, but one student represented the views of many with the statement '‘...the youth must also help the community, not take everything for granted.”

“Give ‘em shelter,"" was a ’ view expressed by one student *

and shared by others. Of the 20 students opposed to
