stopped short of turning down Henry Onushko’s app- lication for subdivision and opened the door for a possible reversal on the year long struggle. Council has referred the application to the departments of agri- culture and environment and their recommendations are expected at the next sub- division and development meeting at the end of September.

Mr. Onushko has farmed land in the Coronado area near Redwater for the past 25 years. He considers it no longer profitable for farming and has been seeking a subdivision go ahead from the MD. He's been turned down by the MD, the Edmonton Regional Planning Commission and the Alberta Planning Appeal Board, on the grounds that the sub- division was too close to a feedlot operation, in this case Canada Packers Poultry Farm.

Claiming this is unfair to him and to other farmers around the area Mr. Onush- ko submitted another app- lication to the MD's sub- division and development committee meeting on Aug- ust 27,

Committee chairman Law- rence Kluthe repeated the MD's concern that the sub- division would border an intensified feedlot operation and a subdivision might bring complaints from future land owners,

Complicating the situation even more is the fact that this restriction has now been incorporated into the MD's general plan draft. Section 1.3.3 subsection 12b states that the MDwill not support subdivision of land for country residential purposes if it is closer than one mile (1.6 km.) from the boundary of a land parcel containing a livestock confinement opera- tion.

It goes on to state that no development would be supp- orted near noxious industry of, activity potentially detri- metal to a residential en- vironment. As there are no plants of that nature in the area the immediate concern is with feedlots.

LANDOWNERS PROTEST RESTRICTIONS

The section came in for some criticism at the general plan public hearing the evening of August 30. Mr. Onushko and some of his neighbors showed up to protest the section. They felt that the section limits owners from doing as they wish with their property and to that effect presented a petition containing 100 signatures opposing section 1.3.3.

lt was recommended by the subdivision committee, earlier that day in council, that Mr. Onushko's request be refused because it wasn't in accordance with the

By Carla Bit The MD's General Plan draft took third place to a bingo and farmers’ market and managed to attract only 27 residents to a public hearing last Thursday night. Upstairs in the Centre bingo attracted a full house, and over at the Morinville Arena the Farmers’ Market drew a big crowd. The plan draft was given first reading in late July paving the way for the public hearing August 30 in the Morinville Recreation Cen- tre. Over 200 copies of the draft had been picked up prior to the public hearing, and council expected that many or more to attend the hearing. Those that did come, were able to get a first hand explanation from Ed- monton Regional Planning Commission (ERPC) plan- ners, Robin Vogelesang and Gordon Tweddle, and MD councillors, about the pro- posals in the plan outlining the MD's objectives over the

next five years.

The present general plan has been in existence for seven years. In 1977, the provincial government re- quested all municipalities with populations of over 1,000 to develop general municipal plans. Since the MD already had one, the draft is a revised up-date of the original plan. The re- vision must also conform to the regional plan now being drafted by the provincial government.

All policies for future land use are stipulated in the draft plan. Once adopted, it'll provide guidelines for the land use bylaw which will state more specific uses for the land, and replace the present zoning bylaws.

The principle objective, as outlined in the draft is to conserve prime agricultural land and maintain agricul- ture as a vital part of the economy.

During the past 10 years a phenomenon known as coun- try residential subdivisions has cropped up in the MD, which by their very nature contradict the primary ob- jective.

Acreages have brought about several problems as stated in the plan, including a decrease in agricultural land and farm values, specu- lative land purchase, inter- ference with normal farming practices and a demand for more services,

In order to maintain the rural character and yet allow for growth, the MD's policy will be to consider each country residential develop- ment on its merits, subject to development policies con- tained in the general plan.

While no one quarrelled with the basic philosophy of the objective, a good number were concerned about future

show at meeting

subdivision development.

As expected a number of residents from the Coronado area were concerned over section 1.3.3 which would limit subdivisions near in- tensified agricultural areas, specifically feedlots.

Mr. Tweddle explained that as a branch of agri- culture, feedlots should be maintained as an important part of the economy.

“*Feedlots belong in agri- cultural areas and to operate effectively, and on a large scale, the lots must be large too, hence the smell,’’ he said. ‘‘My view is that feedlots are just as noxious as industry and subdivisions should be kept away from them."

Jim Kirk, a resident of the Coronado area, claimed the section was too restrictive.

“It's not fair to the people who own the land,"’ he said. “They should be allowed to subdivide as they want. Provincial restrictions are only 1,000 feet between boundaries while the MD is asking one mile. It's like the airport in Edmonton, If people want it they know what's there. It's up to the buyer.’’ (A test case re- questing subdivision in the Coronado area near the Canada Packers Poultry Farm will be ruled on next month and could have a significant effect on section 1.3.3.)

Both planners pointed out that 1,000 feet is a minimum distance and that buyers aren't often aware of the problems they're getting into when they buy near a feedlot.

‘People may buy at times of the year when the feedlot doesn't smell and when it does people start to com- plain,’’ said Mr. Vogelesang. **People aren't always aware and their protests may force operations out."

A petition containing 100 signatures protesting section 1.3.3 was submitted on August 20 and will be studied along with any other written or verbal submis- sions to the plan.

One final concern was the future of abandoned railway

‘right-of-ways. The plan sta-

tes that they should revert to the MD but some residents felt they should go to land owners. At present railway companies maintain rights to all abandoned right-of-ways.

As one resident put it, ‘A railway right-of-way cuts my property in half. The rail- ways might get it into their heads to sell the property or put up a high rise on my property.”

All submissions and sug- gestions will now be re- viewed by the MD and some changes to the draft plan may be made, It will then have to pass second and third reading by MD council to become law before a land use bylaw can be drafted.

Refuses annexation delay

King’s decision means Hole goes

By Jeff Adams

Sturgeon Division School Board Chairman Lois Hole has got to go.

The Sturgeon Board has lost its bid to keep Mrs. Hole in office after January 1, 1980 when land she lives on becomes part of St. Albert through annexation. Being a city resident after that, she'll be ineligible to hold office in the MD.

In a letter presented at the

board’s August 29 meeting, the Minister of Education, David King, said he was refusing a request to delay transfer of the school boun- daries until the following July.

The board has asked him to do so, arguing that students living in the anne- xed areas would have to change from MD to St. Albert and Edmonton schools in mid year, since the

costs of educating them (through local taxes) would also be changed.

Mr. King said that wasn’t a problem. Students can finish their year at the MD schools and then switch, he said. Their parents’ educa- tion taxes during the Jan- uary-to-June period that are going to St. Albert or Edmonton can then be paid back to the MD.

Thus, he said, ‘‘I cannot

agree to delaying the school boundary transfer until July 1, 1980.""

Les Matthews, a field administration officer for Alberta Education, said Thursday that Mr. King’s decision was consistent with the department's policy. ‘“‘We usually don’t set special conditions and there doesn't seem to be any reason to do so at this time. As far as we know it (the

education lands) will still transfer on January 1, 1980."'

Mr. King's solution solves the problem of who will pay the mid-year education costs but it still leaves Mrs. Hole off the board.

Board Superintendant Frank Robinson says there probably won't be a by-elec- tion to fill Mrs. Hole's place because there's only 10 months before the next

election. ‘‘But during that period a large group of people (in Mrs. Hole’s area), will be left disenfranchised."’ They won't have any repre- sentation on the Sturgeon, St. Albert or Edmonton boards of education, he explained,

In any case, Mrs. Hole's chairmanship will end this November, At that time the board's educational meeting will lead to a new election of officers and committees.

Trustees clash over annexation’s affect on funding

Any expansion to Sturgeon Composite High School sho- uld be delayed until Ed- monton’s major annexation proposal is resolved, says Sturgeon Division School Trustee John McDonell.

The annexation may take far too many students away from the school, Mr. Mc- Donell told trustees at their August 29 meeting, making it unnecessary for any future

Most board members dis- agreed, arguing with Trustee Don Hood that ‘‘We have to consider our responsibility to our ratepayers now."* There's already a demand for more rocm at the school, he said, and it'd be unfair to withhold money for expan- sion when nothing in the future is definite. ‘‘We can't look into a crystal ball,’’ he

said, to be sure if and when the annexation will ever be approved.

“You just can’t tell rate- payers,'’ he added, ‘‘that ‘she’s a washed up ball game. You can forget about getting any more money at this school."’

‘Someone has to. assume responsibility'’ said Chair-

man Lois Hole. As long as ratepayers are sending part of their tax dollars to the board, she said, then there's an obligation to provide adequate educational servi- ces.

Trustee Ruth Wall noted that a similar situation arose in the past with Redwater School. Since the County of

Thorhild knew the Sturgeon Division would eventually be taking over operation of the school, she said, it allowed it to deteriorate, providing little money for repairs and maintenance. She asked the board not to let that happen at Sturgeon Composite.

The board's superinten- dant, Frank Robinson, told

the trustees that in any case, population projections sug- gest that the expansion at Sturgeon Composite is re- quired whether Edmonton annexes part of the MD or not.

The proposed expansion at the school includes additions to the sheet metal, welding, automotive and home eco- nomics facilities.

Wheat bunt research

Prairie grain farmers and elevator agents can help in the federal government's research program to control wheat bunt.

Bunt is a wheat. disease caused by a fungus. It reduces crop yields and results in downgrading of wheat shipments.

Dr. K. J. Degenhardt, a

cereal pathologist at Agri- culture Canada’s Lethbridge, Alta. Research Station, is looking for samples of wheat affected by bunt. He wants to get samples from as many prairie locations as possible so that plant breeders can build into new varieties resistance to all races of bunt.

Lake development spawns concern in Morinville

Qualico Developments Sunshine Lake Estates, Sta- ge One in Morinville was the subject of a number of concerns at council's August 28 meeting.

Leading the list was lia- bility over potential flooding problems and a recreation board concern over respon- sibility for grass cutting and general maintenance of lake property.

The subject of flood lia- bility was deferred, at Qualico’s request, pending further information but that didn't stop some councillors

from questioning other as- pects of the lake develop- ment.

Qualico did, however, pro- vide a letter answering the board's queries over lake maintenance. Grass and maintenance of the two fenced park areas is the town's responsibility while maintenance of the lake pro- perty will be up to Qualico until the lake lots are sold. It will then become an owner responsibility.

Councillor Paul Under- wood had some questions about the agreement as the

Early start wanted on lagoon

Sewer rates

Tentative sewer rates for Riviere Qui Barre have been established by the MD's utility department. Accord- ing to utility officer Rick Thorne, residents will be paying $3.06 per lot though this could go as high as $4 allowing the MD to recoup losses expected in the first few years of operation.

The proposed rates were entered as information at council's August 30 meeting. Once the rates are finalized

by the MD, the hamlet’s school will pay $135 per month or 41 percent of the $3,980 monthly cost. Resi- dents will pay approximately one third, with the MD's share slated to be $196 per month,

Mr. Thorne has already met with residents informing them of the proposed sewage lagoon construction and change in sewer rates.

‘Everyone will be levied by the municipality and

town had not formally accepted responsibility for the parks. Councillor Harvey Atkinson also questioned the concept of private lakes without public access. Both have consistently opposed this part of the agreement which cuts off public access, while fencing around park areas doesn’t allow for ade- quate maintenance around the lake.

“I have some reservations about this agreement though I do accept the concept,"’ said Mr. Underwood. ‘The town may be forced to pull

down the fences, though, if maintenance must be done to the lake.’

He felt, too, that the odd shaped lots could result in problems with eventual own- ers failing to maintain their lake property.

“If that happens,’’ said Mr. Atkinson, ‘‘the town may have to cut the grass and bill the owners."*

Deputy mayor, Ross Quinn, pointed out that this wouldn't be a problem as has been proven with owners of other beach front property. With regards to public

access, he felt that allowing it, would destroy the concept of a private lake.

**People are buying lake front property for just that reason and they're paying for it,’’ he said. *‘They don't want the public in their backyards on weekends."*

Mayor Art Stapleton felt the argument over public access was confusing the issue and had harsh criticism for those proposing it par- ticularly when the develop- ment was more than half complete.

“I feel we're nitpicking at

this stage,’’ he said. ‘‘The agreement has been review- ed by property owners, lawyers, engineers and council, | might add, and we have now reached the stage of a workable agreement.”

Mr. Quinn pointed out that it was not too late to change the agreement if council so wished.

“If you have a positive solution, we could present it," he said. ‘'The lawyer is already asking questions about flooding, maybe this could also be brought up."

proposed for Riviere Qui Barre

residents have been infor- med that they will require septic tanks, except those already tied into the school’s septic system,’’ he said. “The school could then claim costs of the use in an arrangement with those resi- dents. Those residents have already indicated that they would be willing to pay towards the school’s sys- tem,"’

The expected life of the initial lagoon project is 10

years but witha rate set at $3.06 the MD will lose money for the first three to four years. At a rate per lot of $4, Mr. Thorne recommended the MD could make up these anticipated losses in the last six years as area population increases the load on the lagoon to maximum capacity.

With the summer con- Struction season fast coming to a close the ground work is now the immediate concern.

Namao Ridge will get new well

Relief, in the form of a new well, is on the way for residents of Namao Ridge, southeast of Morinville. The MD's utility department will dig a new well in the acreage subdivision in mid-Septem- ber, and meantime a tem- porary supply will be piped in from Grandview Heights.

The pipeline will be con- structed using irrigation tub- ing with water from Grand- view Heights used to fill the 50,000 gallon reservoir in Namao Ridge. The utility department will fill the reservoir manually but is hoping to make the line permanent with construction slated to begin sometime this year.

MD council passed a bylaw at last Thursday's meeting allowing for surveys and examinations to begin on the pipeline route. If they prove successful, an application and plans will be filed with

the provincial government under the Water Resources Act for a license to construct the water diversion line. The temporary pipeline, however, is expected to alle- viate water shortages which have plagued Namao Ridge for the past two years, Pipes in the subdivision must now struggle over two hills and water pressure is often low or non-existent when it arrives in the homes, Water was shut off again the weekend of August 24 when the reser- voir became too low to handle the demand, MD utility officer, Rick Thorne, complained that residents had depleted the reservoir by using water for watering lawns and washing cars. Water was draining faster than two wells could produce it, he said, and water restrictions were en- forced, subjecting residents to fines or water service cut

offs for unnecessary water use.

The pipeline was originally intended to complement the existing wells but council suggested that water from Grandview Heights be used exclusively to fill the re- servoir, providing a good indication of consumption and water quality.

Joint-use agreement close to approval

The Redwater town council and Sturgeon Division School Board have agreed in prin- ciple to joint use of Redwater School.

The agreement -- still to be signed -- includes sharing the construction costs for storage rooms, an arts, crafts and music room, an addition to the kitchen and installa- tion of security doors.

The project is expected to cost $59,100 but prices may rise. If they do, Redwater's $28,933 share will escalate with them.

The past week has been a very busy one for the Redwater RCMP Detach- ment,

Saturday saw an Allied Van Lines truck tip over on

Redwater will be paying for two-thirds of the kitchen addition, one-third of the arts, crafts and music room and for all of the storage rooms and security doors.

The town and the board agreed to the arrangement at Sturgeon Division’s August 29th meeting. Redwater Mayor Alex Konasewich tried during the meeting to convince the board that a two-thirds sharing of the kitchen costs was too much, The school, he said, would surely use the facilities more

than one-third of the time.

That may be true, said trustee Don Hood, but the town will be using other school facilities for which there's no charge. ‘I don’t see this as being inequitable at all. We don’t ask for a one-to-one share for the gymnasium."’ He also noted that other joint-use agree- ments in the MD provided for the municipalities to pay an even greater share.

Mr. Konasewich also questioned the need for an arts, crafts and music room.

Space that would allow phy- sical recreation would be a lot more valuable to the town, he said, and that was impossible under the present plan.

Larry Kirkpatrick from the Sturgeon Recreational Board pointed out that a clear need for an arts and crafts room would be apparent from enrollment in related classes in the area. At the moment, he said, interested people are forced to hold them in their homes.

Test Application

Continued From Page BI general plan or past rulings on similar applications.

Councillor Walter Jerram pointed out that the smell was no longer a problem because Canada Packers had secured a certificate of compliance and had cleaned up its operation. He stated too, that the Alberta gov- ernment’s own restrictions state that there must only be a minimum of 1,000 feet between intensified agricul- tural operations and sub- divisions and that other counties appear to be more lenient than the MD in this area,

The county of Strathcona sees no problem with sub- divisions near intensified agriculture and Parkland puts a caveat on parcels so that people are aware the problem exists.”

Mr. Kluthe felt that a

caveat or warning on land purchase agreements would not be enough to prevent residents from complaining. ‘How do you deal with people who would com- plain?’ he said. **Would the poultry operation then have to be compatible with the residents?”

The situation failed to come to any conclusion, though the application was- n't approved or rejected. It now lies in limbo waiting for recommendations from agri- culture and environment, but before then, ceuncil will have to rule on submissions protesting section 1.3.3.

Only then, will the MD be able to decide whether to relax or maintain restrictions on subdivisions near live- stock operations, and only then, will Mr. Onushko find out if he's lost one last time.

Board debates field trips

The traditional field trip, a chance for kids to get away from the classroom, would be a thing of the past if Sturgeon Division School Trustee John McDonell had his way.

‘Most of these field trips are a damn joke; nothing but a chance for students and their teachers to have a day off,’ Mr. McDonell told the Sturgeon board.

He said overnight skiing trips to Jasper are one kind of venture that he'd par- ticularly like to see curtailed. There's a great danger, he said, of ‘‘greenhorns,”’ going skiing, getting injured and leaving the board liable for the medical expenses.

He agreed that students would be disappointed if they were denied a trip to Jasper, but maybe they've been

spoiled. ‘‘If I’m given a choice between Jasper and Lake Eden I'll take Jasper but if I'm given a choice between Eden and staying home, I'll take Eden."’ Other people at the meet- ing agreed that the privileges of field trips can be abused, thus making the board's new field trip policy -- including requirements for three weeks notice of any trip and docu-

mentation of the educational value of the excursion -- a valuable control.

“You'd be surprised at some of the educational justifications that you get for trips,"’ said superintendant Frank Robinson, The trips can be used by teachers as bribes, added trustee Don Hood, to get the students to “‘act as good as gold all year,”

Ski trips to Jasper,”’ the board's director of instruction Tony Taylor, ‘have been a reality in the division for quite some time.

That includes one last year during which the bus broke down on route.

“I think we have to accept responsibility where respon sibility is due,’’ said Mr. Hood. ‘‘We approved that trip to Jasper. We certainly

said

can't have any control over whether the damn bus breaks down."’

The new trip policy should go far towards providing better control over the students, the board agreed. The policy includes guide- lines concerning supervision, time away from the school, transportation and insur- ance, But it’s only as good as those who implement it, added trustee Joyce Porsild.

Water Board plans major 2 million expansion

The Northeast Water Board, comprised of six municipalities is planning major construction of a water pipeline and a 1.5 million gallon water storage and pumping facility near Gib- bons.

The six, include the coun- ties of Strathcona, Parkland and Thorhild the towns of Redwater and Fort Sask- atchewan and the MD of Sturgeon.

MD _ Secretary-Treasurer Gilbert Boddez, outlined the agreement and debenture

bylaw to MD council at its meeting last Thursday. Council gave three readings to the agreement and first reading to the debenture authorizing the municipality to borrow $421,900 as its share in the $2,109,300 project. A total of $1,687,600 will be borrowed by the board with the remainder made up in government grants.

The first leg of the pipeline will feed water from Edmon- ton to Fort Saskatchewan.

Notley pays tribute

to Henry Young

“‘His life was in many respects a reflection in miniature of the progressive movement in Alberta, and his outstanding contributions to that movement were in- strumental in laying the foundations upon which suc- ceeding generations may now build,’’ said Grant Notley, Alberta NDP leader, on learning of the death of Henry Young, late of Millet, Alberta.

““As president of the Farmers’ Union of Alberta from 1949 to 1954, and as a member of the Inter-Pro- vincial Farm Union Council, Henry Young presided over one of the most exciting and fruitful periods of farm history in Alberta. It is indicative of his determina- tion and dedication that it was during his tenure that the building still occupied by Unifarm's offices was erec- ted, and that the Farmers’ Union achieved the largest membership of its long his- tory.-- more than SO percent of all the farmers in the province.

“It was only fitting, then, when Henry Young was in- ducted into the Agriculture Hall of Fame in 1972.

**But Henry Young's in- terests and concerns ex- tended far beyond the limits of his own occupation, and he brought the same dynamism and deep personal commit-

ment that characterized his work with the Farmers’ Union to the struggle for social justice and equality.

“Henry Young served four successive terms on the executive committee of the Alberta Co-operative Com- monwealth Federation from 1938 to 1942, from 1940 to 1941 as president. This time compassed one of the most energetic and productive periods in the provincial CCF's history. The work done by Henry Young and others at that time led directly to the success en- joyed by the CCF in the late forties.

‘Along with such figures as Henry Wise Wood, Bill Irvine and Elmer Roper, Henry Young will be remem- bered as a pivotal influence in the development of the progressive movement in Alberta.

‘His passing constitutes a great loss, and is for me a cause for deep personal sadness.

“But his contributions -- his clear vision of a better future and the unwavering determination witn which he struggled to achieve that future -- will remain as a legacy for Alberta."’

A memorial service was held for Henry Young at the Community Hall in Millet Monday, September 3, at 2 p.m.

Morinville council has postponed a decision on the town’s new tennis courts pending a cost revision by the development committee. After examining the cost

breakdown for the $60,000 courts, council agreed that there might be room for savings. As each item was dealt with, the original amount, which doesn't in- clude lights, was cut in half.

The absence of one coun- cillor caused a split vote on a motion to accept Morinville’s Recreation Master Plan dr- aft, presented at council's August 28 meeting.

The motion failed to get the necessary majority and ended in a tie. It was declared lost and must be returned for another vote at council's next meeting.

The plan outlines all recreation prospects for the

By Margarette J. Atkinson

We have a record at Mom's place which we sometimes play, ‘‘A Cow- boy's Best Friend Is His Pony.”’

Yes sir, that is a true fact. If there's a blizzard, just give them their head and they'll take you home.

During the early 1900's many a guy who had indulged in too much home- made spirits got home (with- out killing someone else, as they do with cars and drink- ing) on his horse.

My brother Jim's horse, Sandy, knew when he was supposed to get his oats at the homestead. He would unlock that granary with his teeth or if he saw someone heading that way too slow, Sandy would give a **boost"’ with his nose to the seat of Dad's overalls.

Every time Buster Elie used to swing the blanket onto his horse and turn to get the saddle, that horse would turn his head around, grab the blanket with his teeth and pull it off.

One old man used to spend a lot of time in the old beer parlor in winter, His team and buggy stood hitched

town until 1984. Included are plans for tennis courts, outside arenas and swim- ming pools and their pro- jected time lines. As well, there are plans for revamp- ing existing recreation facil- ities.

Minor changes in the plan's wording were accep- ted and in addition, concerns that the town’s recreation board have continuity with the Sturgeon Regional Rec-

during the early 30's by the old hitching rail, which was up by Joe McLean's Post Office at Gibbons. At about 50 degrees below zero or more one day | watched one of this man's horses pull at that rope-hitch with his teeth. The poor animals had stood all they were going to. I slipped over and helped that horse.

Needless to say, the team went home and the old fellow stayed there all day and evening too. Talk about ‘horse-sense’!

One time during the 50's as I was walking along a path through the deep forest of the Canadian Rockies, I just walked along whistling a tune. Suddenly from am- ongst the trees a horse closed in on both sides of me, two more ‘‘joined ranks"’ in front then two more, brought up the rear. One more walked away up front.

‘Il was startled, to say the very least. What's going on with you guys?"' I said out loud. How could I expect to get out of line anyhow? ‘Oh well the ranks are closed, I’m here, no way out, I might as well whistle a tune and keep going too!"*

You know I find on an average there still seems to be kind, considerate people. But I do waver in that decision a bit!

I wonder at residents all along southwest and west of the Spruce View Manor who allow the constant even chronic ‘‘Yap yap yap"’ of large dogs, especially at night. Good Lord, do you really know your dogs vocal chords are in action?

I wonder how you would react if someone would tape that chorus and then set it by your open window while you are at your weary-worst, or needing to rest for a very

Considerate people do exist

early morning.

And most of all, the thoughts of all those won- derful, senior citizens in their rooms resting for a busy tomorrow. Did you ever consider them? Also the youths racing around in loud cars or motorbikes?

I stepped out on our front porch at 10:25 p.m. Tuesday, August 7 while some youths were racing a mini-bike with the ‘‘croaky"’ horn blasting away. I let out a bellow loud enough to scare a wild boar! ‘Stop that damned racket around here. What's the matter with you anyway! Don't you know it’s bed time and senior citizens are sleep-

ing?”

I got a lovely surprise; the lads said *‘Sorry, we won't do it again."" Now isn't that considerate? Those lads made us feel really good. | wonder if the dog owners

Soilasa renewable

resource

Parking lots and shopping centres aren't the only cul prits in the loss of prime farmland in Canada. Food crops themselves are rapidly using up this precious soil resource.

Organic matter found in the soil helps hold ground moisture, makes the easier to work, helps prevent soil erosion and provides crops with nutrients. But the organic matter content of soil 1S graduaily reduced through cultivation,

However, a soil chemist al Agriculture Canada’s Leth- bridge Research Station says soil is a renewable resource His studies show that the critical fractions of the soil's organic matter can, in fact be increased through cultural practices.

THE FOLLOWING IS A COLLECTION OF ODDS AND SODS.

THE FIRST ANNUAL TURKEY TOURNEY should be a laugh. But for some it will, no doubt, be a good measure of racquetball proficiency.

The CKST sponsored racquetball tourney, to be held at the St. Albert Fitness and Court Club September 28-30, is Open to any member of the public who wishes to plunk down seven smackers,

Four classes have been set up, Super Novice, Novice C, and D. I don’t know what happened to “A”, maybe there are no such players in town.

Winners and runners-up will receive Thanksgiving turkeys for their efforts.

WHILE TALKING TO MARK MESSIER last week, it became apparent that the kid has his head screwed on right. He rates his chances of catching on with the Edmonton Oilers as “maybe possible” (not quite in those words). Mark, in my opinion, thinks it’s going to be a tough road in latching on to a spot on the Oiler roster, and he realizes a stint in the minors may be on the agenda before»returning to the NHL club on a more permanent basis.

STILL WITH HOCKEY . . . the game last week the St. Albert Junior Saints played against their “alumni” turned out to be an impressive event in some ways.

Rocky Saganiuk, last year with the Toronto Maple Leafs, played with the Saints team in the match. He was definitely the best player on the ice, even though he had never played with a Saint or Met team. (The Saints were formerly the Spruce Grove Mets and the Edmonton Mets). But he always wanted to be, so we have been told.

One disappointment was Wayne Babych of the St. Louis Blues. He played about three shifts in the first period, and the crowd was told via PA system that he received a minor injury, forcing him out of the game. A cut on the foot we've been told.

I suppose it’s easy to understand not wanting him to take any chances on such an important game (to the Blues at least), An injury in the early stages of his career wouldn’t be welcome.

Other NHL’ers present in the game, which is hoped to turn into an annual affair, were Mark Messier (Oilers), Paul Messier (Colorado) and Gary Rissling (Washington) Mike Panteluk looked pretty good, and he'll be trying out at the Oilers camp next week.

It’s too bad the game had to be played on the Friday of the September long weekend. About 250 people gathered into the Akinsdale Arena for the match, with the low number due mostly to the fact that many people take this particular weekend to close down the summer cabin for the winter months.

AND STILL MORE ON HOCKEY .. . Here's a first for Edmonton. The Hockey Hall of Fame Tour will be hitting town soon.

The hall is on a 72 day tour of North America, sponsored by Bauer. It will take position at Woodward's Southgate store from September 20-22. Admission is free, and the doors will open to the public from 10:00 a.m. till 9:00 p.m. on the first two days, and 10:00 a.m. till 5:30 p.m, on the last day. Some Edmonton Oilers are supposed to make the scene, plus some surprise visits from some of the veterans of hockey.

Should be interesting!

HERE’S A NOTE FROM THE NCABL .. . The regional baseball league will be holding its bi-annual policy meeting from 9:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 22 at the Morinville Recreation Centre.

AND BOY AM I MAD AT THE HOUSTON OILERS! . .. There they were on Sunday, playing before my very eyes on the tube. The Oilers were leading the Washington Redskins by two points with about a minute and a half remaining in the game. I had picked Houston to win by three points, so all I needed was a measily field goal to collect my “win’’ in the football picks column,

And do you think they would try, with good field position and all? No such luck I'm afraid. The beggars ran most of the clock out, and I’m out one sure win,

TIDBIT DEPARTMENT . . . Guess who almost came to St, Albert to open the track at the Summer Games? My reliable source in this one says the City of St. Albert wrote to a certain English fellow asking him to do the honors at the track. The fellow they asked was a track runner, and a pretty fair one too. Unfortunately, the fellow had to run a race a few days after and didn’t want to come for fear of the lack of oxygen in this “high” altitude might affect his pace. This secret man was Sebastion Coe.

AND HERE'S ANOTHER TIDBIT . . . though not as important or as interesting as the above. However, it does relate to the track, which was recently named the “Fowler Athletic Park.”” The track facility has had a revolving turnstile installed at one gate, enabling joggers and other athletic types to run around the track without at

‘, ) Ottocrats win

fastball championship

Trail Leisure Ottocrats won the inaugural Greater St. Albert Men's Fastball League championship Tues- day night with a 3-0 shutout over the St. Albert Territorial Juniors in a game played at Meadowview ball park.

The win for the Ottocrats was their third in four games of the best of five series. Ottocrats won the opener 15-1, lost the second by a 7-2 score, then took a strangle- hold on the series by winning the third 10-4,

Both clubs played some very excellent fastball al- though the Ottocrats were the superior team at the plate, outscoring the Juniors 30 to 12. ‘

Ottocrats finished the eight team league in fourth spot, six games behind pennant winning LBH Buil- ders, while the Juniors finished a strong second and were only two games behind the Builders.

Ottocrats took out the Trophy Bank Colt 45's in the first round of the playoffs and gained a berth into the final with a three-game series win over the Builders in the second round.

Territorial Juniors knocked off the St. Albert Blue Jays in the first round and then

gained a berth into the league finals with a surpri- sing win over the seasoned St. Albert Nu-West A's,

Danny Woytiuk was very strong on the mound for the Ottocrats as he was the winning pitcher in all three wins, while Dale Lawson and Al Edwards were the big men at the plate as they hammered the pitching duo: of Mike Mitchell and Blaine Galbraith as if they owned them.

Juniors also gained a lot of respect from the Ottocrats

and the many fastball fans that attended the games as they displayed a lot of poise, considering all are under the age of 21. Rod Gauf

scored the

winning run Tuesday night as he started things off with a one out single in the third inning and scored on Al Edwards double. Edwards in Please Turn to Page B14

Saganiuk stars in Saints alumni game

Rocky Saganiuk scored three goals in a losing cause last Friday night at the Akinsdale Arena in St. Albert as the St. Albert Saints lost 7 - 5 to a team of players that previously play- ed their junior hockey under the guidance of coach Doug Messier.

Saganiuk, who played 15 games with the Toronto Maple Leafs and 61 for the New Brunswick Hawks and was the American League's

pRB ee

ROCKY SAGANIUK

most valuable player, put on an excellent display of skating and shooting and was the top player on either team.

A small crowd of only 250 attended the game, but those who were there saw plenty of action and some top notch talent on both teams.

ST. ALBERT & STURGEON GAZETTE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1979 - B13

Saints alumni goaltender Jim Bales managed to make an excellent pad save off the stick of Rocky Saganiuk (8) on this close in play but did give up three goals to the ever hustling Saganiuk who finished off the season last year with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The alumni defeated the Junior Saints 7-5 in the game played last Friday at Akinsdale Arena.

Continued From Page B13 the Grads came back late in the period as Paul Messier and Dave Hoyda tallied. Messier is with the Colorado Rockies while Hoyda will perform with the Winnipeg Jets this season.

Ex-St. Albert Saint and a member of the Oil Kings last year, Barry Brown, gave the Grads a 3-2 lead in the first minute of play in the second period, only to have Sagan- iuk skate the length of the ice to score his second of the game. Brown fired a blis- tering slapshot that Grad goaltender Jim Bales had no chance on.

Ex-Fort Saskatchewan Tr- ader star Grant Morin, who was with Kalamazoo of the International League last season, scored late in the period to put the Grads ahead 4-3 going into the final period of play.

Morin's second of the night with only 14 seconds gone in the third period put the Grads ahead of two and Messier’s second of the night at 3:03 proved to be the winner,

Saganiuk took a pass from Mark Messier at 4:44 of the period to make it 6-4 but a rink-long rush by Dave Mor- row, who scored on Saints goaltender Brian Ford, put the icing on the cake for the Grads.

Billy Hobbins, with the New Westminster Bruins last season and previously with the Saints their first year in

St. Albert, rounded out the scoring at 17:24 of the period,

Referee Ron Burwash, with excellent help from Bob Wallis and Jim Beaudry, had an easy night handing out only five minor penalties

with the Jr. Saints getting three, none of which resulted in goals.

St. Louis Blues star Wayne Babych played only a couple of shifts in the first period before having to leave the game. He received eight sutures to a cut in his foot.

Following the second per- iod of play coach Messier ran

a shoot-out contest with all players taking part. Bruce Jacobson won $20 as the top goalscorer over Brian Shaw, while Brian Ford was the least scored upon goaltender and also pocketed $20,

Jacobson was with the Saints two years ago and last year was with the Edmonton Oil Kings.

FOOTBALL FIGURIN’

The first weekend in the NFL came through with some surprises, but the biggest point to be made was the relative closeness of the games.

Joe Who had a tough time picking winners, while Marty O’Kell had better luck. However, when it comes to beating the point spread, both Joe and Marty took a beating (to get credit for a correct pick, the winning team has to beat the predicted point spread).

Joe’s record in the NFL stands at 1-13, while Marty’s record is just slightly better at 3-11. And they call themselves experts.

But even the “experts” in the U.S. had a bad opening weekend. Harrah’s Reno Race and Sports Book compiled a 5-9 record in the betting department. Oh well!

In the CFL picks last week, Joe compiled a record of 1-4, while Marty came through with a 2-3 record. Hamilton’s win over Ottawa really rocked the boat.

Here are the games and picks on tap this week in the NFL and CFL.

AMAZING CATCH National Lampoon readers will remember the baseball issue of a few years back when the amazing Hoplong leapt over 100 feet in the air to make a game saving grab. RMC Sportsmen's Don Darling was a little short of a hundred foot leap on this catch but he was obviously close enough to beat Rummies Gordie Brown and another unidentified defender on this play. RMC handed the Rummies a 45-25 defeat, a first for the Rummies since league inception.

Beitel manufactures first place conquest

It's taken nearly a season and a half but, the Rummies have finally lost one. Thurs- day night the RMC Sports- men, led by Terry Beitel, bested the 1978 champs 45 - 25 in a come from behind effort.

Beitel did everything for RMC, throwing three TD passes and scoring three of his own including one off an interception.

At one pointin the game Sportsmen trailed by two touchdowns but a quarter- back change (it's difficult to tell from the stats who came in and who went out) gave the school teachers new life - although you would think a two month holiday every summer would be lift en- ough.

Apparently the big diff- erence in the game was the work of the Sportsmen de- fence. They held the Rum- mies in check with several interceptions allowing the offense time to get on track. An informed source says Sportsmen scored three TD's in the final 10 plays to salt away the victory.

John Provincial was the top Rummies scorer with two TDs.

Geoff Holden's four TD throws were enough to keep him two up on Terry Beitel, his nearest competitor for top passing honours. Holden has connected for 21 in his four games.

Two games last week produced the unexpected. The Dirty Dozen needed last play heroics to come from behind and down the lowly Sturgeon Sabres 26 - 25. Either the Dirty Dozen have become even wimpier than we thought or the Sabres have really turned things around,

The other surprise was the play of the Bonneville Cas- uals. After playing their first three games like a team ol your little sister's friends they came on strong to tie the Phantoms at 27 in a well played game between two evenly matched teams.

Casuals actually led for much of the game before falling behind and coming back for the tie with two plays left. Words out the Bonneville Casuals’ camp is that they've finally learned the meaning of execution.

14839 - 118 AVENUE, EDMONTON. ALTa TSL 2M7

And get this. Casuals now have a QB rated among the top 10 (let's not tell them there are only nine teams in the league). They also have a pass receiver tied for last spot. Do I hear playoff talk?

In the Dozen's game lan Langridge had two touch- downs while Bernie Hert- metz picked up two for the Losers.

League scoring leader Allan Stephen of the Phan- toms had two in their game to maintain a one point lead over Don Darling of the Sportsmen.

Mark Thompson of the Bonneville Casuals crossed the goal line three times to move into the scoring stats.

Top scorer of the week was Don Savich of the Mayfair Plumbing Bombers. The Bombers were easy winners over the league doormat Chargers 53-12. Larry (Nur- eyev) Powers had the hot arm in that game throwing half a dozen touchdown strikes to his receivers. Rob Crossley had two majors for the Bombers and the Char- gers didn't score enough to record.

GAMES THIS WEEK:

Mayfair Plumbing Bomb- ers will prove that the Sturgeon Sabres were just lucky in that game with the Dirty Dozen.

Or maybe the Phantoms will prove that the Dozen really don't have it after all. An informed source dropped by the office this week to say the oddsmakers were calling the Phantoms to win by a TD.

Tomorrow the Bonneville Casuals will have their hands overfull with the Standard Generals. Generals, on the strength of the stats, should win that one by 12 points.

For all you Christians versus the Lions fans the game to watch will be RMC Sportsmen's annihilation of the Chargers. Will we see our first three figure score?

Chargers will have two days after that one to prepare for the Rummies who will have been resting since their loss to RMC 10 days earlier. Maybe we'll be an eight team league after that one. Bet you can hardly wait to see the ‘for and against’ stats.

Girls soccer squad takes fourth

The St. Albert juvenile girls soccer team played a very competitive brand of soccer over the weekend in the annual Klondike Cup soccer tournament in Ed- monton, bringing home the second consolation title.

The team came in fourth behind the winners, Ajax of Edmonton, Tom's Lake, B.C. and Calgary Chinooks. Bev- erly and the Blue Jays, both of Edmonton, were also in the juvenile girls class.

The St. Albert squad opened up the weekend with a close 2 - 1 loss to Tom's Lake. Jackie Anderson: scor- ed St. Albert's lone marker.

The second game involved the tourney winners, Ajax, and the locals held the Edmonton team scoreless in the first half. The St. Albert girls, however, fell behind in the second half and lost the match S-1. Scoring for St. Albert was Margaret Geren- cser,

In the second consolation final, St. Albert clobbered Beverly 6-0, with goals coming from Sharon Van Buren and Heidi Worsfold with two each, and Margaret Gerencser and Jackie An- derson, with singles.

The local team will swing back into action with the Challenge Cup on Sept. 12; and their first game in the provincial playoffs Sept. 22 against the winner of the Edmonton zone,

Coach Wilf Paul says he expects the girls to defeat the Edmonton winner, especially after the fine performance the girls gave in the Klondike Cup on the weekend,

The St. Albert Tennis Club had eight teams entered in the Edmonton District Inter- club League: one A team, three B teams, three C teams, and one D team - and six of the eight made it to the playoffs. Following are the results - with the playoffs just having concluded this week,

The A Interclub team ended the season on top of their six team league standings are as follows: St. Albert - 55, Glenora - 53, Garneau - 46, Broadmoor - 44, Mayfield - 27, Hillcrest - 15. Since the A's had only six teams the playoffs involved only the top three - with St. Albert getting the bye to the final because of their top placing. Glenora defeated Garneau 7-1 in semi-final play and St. Albert and Glenora were tied 4-4 in the final playoff, however Glen- ora took the Canada Safeway trophy because they had more points in the games. Team members for the A team were: Dave Kirk, Steve Kirk, Peter Miller, Lloyd Scherer, Betty Ontkean, Cynthia Sage and Judy Wood.

The BI team ended the season in second place in their seven team division. Standings were as follows: Garneau 69, St. Albert 1 - 66, Broadmoor - 51, Spruce Grove - 46, Hillcrest - 42, King Edward Park - 41, Allendale - 22. Team mem-

Lions Club peewee’s shock California team

The St. Albert peewee Lions soccer team travelled to Calgary on the Labour Day weekend to compete in the annual North American In- vitational soccer tourna- ment.

The locals were the big surprise in the peewee divi- sion, beating one of Cal- gary's top teams 6-0 in the first round. The second round saw the St. Albert

boys in another upset, as they clipped the favored San Jose, California team 1-0 San Jose was all over St Albert in the first 10 minutes of the match and came close to scoring on more than one occasion, but good goal- keeping by St. Albert's Sean Hunt kept the net clean. Midway through the first half, St. Albert began to play much better, and the action

continued equally from one end of the pitch to the other.

The second half turned out to be dominated by the local squad, as they came close to scoring several times, The San Jose keeper had his work cut out for him in the second half and performed admir- ably.

The only scoring play of the game came when lan Reynolds ‘‘dipsy-doodled"’

Al Laplante will take over the reins of the Peewee A team, while Bill Shore will take charge of the Peewee B's.

The Bantam A club will have Rick Powell at its head, and Bob Couture will coach the Bantam B's,

In the Midget category, Blaine Galbraith will look after the A's, while Roy Malanchen will contend with the B's.

There will only be one juvenile team this year, and Stan Harkness was announ- ced as the coach of that squad.

There is also a possibility that a strictly 11 year old team will be formed, and if that happens, Ed Rusnak will be the coach.

Schedules were also re- leased for tryouts for the

representative teams. Pee- wee tryouts will be held September 15 and 16 from 8 to 9:45 a.m. and on Sep- tember 20 from 6 to 7 p.m. Bantams are invited to work out from 10 to 11:45 a.m. on September 15 and

16, and 7 to 8 p.m. on September 20. The midgets will hold

tryouts from 4 to 6 p.m. on September 15 and 16, and from 8 to 9 p.m, on September 20.

The Juveniles will have the ice from noon to 1:45 p.m. on September 1S and 16, and from 9 10

to p.m, on September 20. All tryouts will be at

Akinsdale Arena, and any boy interested in making a rep team is welcome to come to the sessions.

around three California de- fenders, and was brought down from behind by a frustrated San Jose player just before he was about to go in on the lone keeper.

An ensuing penalty kick was taken by Derek Brad- ford, and he made no mistake as he pounded the ball just under the crossbar for the winning goal.

In the third round, St. Albert Lions met another California team, Pleasant- view Valley. This match was very similar to the contest with San Jose, but the locals ended up on the short end of a 1-0 score.

The players on the Lions peewee team were noted to be very good sports thr- oughout the tourney, espec- ially after their cliffhanger loss to Pleasantview Valley.

The St. Albert team was also on the receiving end of some praise from the Calgary folks, who enjoyed the high degree of skill displayed.

The team members would like to thank the St. Albert Supper Lions Club for their generous sponsorship of the team; without them their trip south would have been diffi- cult to pull off.

The coaches are now pre- paring the squad for the Northern Alberta section of the provincial playoffs to be held later this month.

Vol.

Most of St. Albert's advice on how to deal with Edmonton's major annexa- tion proposal will be coming from Toronto if the list of hired consultants is any indication.

Three of the six experts, including the ‘team’ director, come from that city, acc- ording to a profile of each presented by City Manager Bob Byron at Tuesday's city council meeting.

Eli Comay, formerly a member of the Metropolitan Planning Commission, has been hired to coordinate the city’s annexation submis- sions and reactions to Ed- monton’s submissions. Mr. Comay operates an urban consulting firm in Toronto and teaches at York Uni- versity.

Don Patterson, also of Toronto, has a long history of administering organizational studies, urban and regional planning and economic and demographic forecasts, Mr. Byron said. He'll be in charge of outlining St. Albert's economic status with or without annexation.

Earl Berger, a former Toronto resident who's lived in Edmonton for the past four years, will be responsible for assessing St. Albert's pre- sent and future social service needs and the effects that annexation would have on

them.

The fourth team member, Ken Foster of Grimble and Associates in Edmonton, will be responsible for explaining the transportation require- ments that St. Albert will face in the future, and what annexation would mean.

The experts in terms of utilities -- water and sewage

will be Stanley and Associates, and the legal council for St. Albert will be Wayne Drury. 4

In an interview Wednes- day, Mr. Byron emphasized that the six consultants only make up a part of St. Albert's efforts for the upcoming annexation hearings. The city’s chief planner, Wayne Gordon, and its chief en- gineer, Don Corrigan, will also play key roles, he said.

“It's a team effort. It's not just something done by the people outside.’

Mr. Byron said the con- sultants had a group meeting last week and another one is scheduled for October, Most of their work, he said, need not be done in St. Albert because it's simply resear- ching reports and docu- ments. In any case, he said, ‘twe simply couldn't afford to keep them here all the time.”’

Although three of the key team members are easter- ners, Mr. Byron noted that two of them have extensive

re iit

DAYS END

Silhouetted against an evening sky, two locomotives head across the bridge near Lions Park.

20 No. 36 Thursday , September 6, 1979

St. Albert's annexation team revealed

experience in the Edmonton area. Mr. Patter$on has spent the last four years in the city and Mr. Comay completed a report on metropolitan government for the County of Strathcone in 1978.

Despite their impressive credentials and experience, Mr. Byron said the team members have one thing counting against them: time. Only a couple of weeks remain before the initial Local Authorities Board hearings begin and that's not nearly enough time to pre- pare important defences for the city of Edmonton's sub- missions.

As a result, he said, St. Albert's representatives will be asking for at least a two month delay in the hearings. He said he couldn't set a specific date since that's up to the legal people involved but, ‘‘It is impossible for us to be adequately prepared until December."’

He added that it's difficult for St. Albert's staff to do a lot of preparation because so much of their work will be rebuttals of Edmonton's submissions. It’s important to remember, he said, ‘that

you can’t react to something-

that you don’t know is being said yet. It's they who are applying, so they state their case and we must react to it,””

Format to be set for annexation hearings

By Jeff Adams

The first step in what's sure to be a lengthy process begins next Tuesday as lawyers for all the muni- cipalities involved meet to discuss legal procedures for the upcoming annexation hearings in Edmonton.

The hearings before the Local Authorities Board (LAB) are scheduled for September 25 to 28. The LAB's Tom Lauder said Wednesday that next week's one day meeting will simply be a chance for the solicitors involved to discuss a format for the hearings.

They'll be talking about such matters as which party makes the first submission, who can rebut whose argu- ments and when they can be presented.

No definite procedural decisions will be made next week, he said, and the lawyers involved will simpiy discuss various options and then take them to the hearings two weeks later for finalization.

Mr. Lauder said the four days of scheduled hearings will largely be taken up with setting out the ground rules for the actual, later hearings which will probably occur in October or November.

He added that another major point of discussion during these preliminary hearings could be the surr- ounding municipalities’ eff- orts to get the hearings delayed to allow further preparation time.

While the September dis- cussions are going on, people wishing to make a submis- sion at the later hearings can register outside the Holiday Inn chambers. Registration, Mr. Lauder said, will involve proving that you're a resi- dent of the proposed ann- exation area, A tax bill or

receipt will be enough, he said.

After you're registered, it's up to the LAB to contact you later with an appoint- ment time for you to appear at the hearings. This system, he said, will avoid the un- fortunate situation where citizens would be waiting around outside the chambers indefinitely to make their submission.

Mr. Lauder added that even people not living directly within the proposed annexation area or Edmon- ton can apply to make a submission to the LAB, The criteria, he said, will include proving that the annexation

would somehow affect you.

He noted that all of the hearings will be located in Edmonton, no matter how long the whole procedure takes, Equally affected areas like St. Albert can’t play host to part of the hearings, he said, because it’s standard LAB procedure that all hearings take place within the area that applies for the annexation and within the area that would receive the annexed lands -- in both cases, that's Edmonton. “You'd have to admit too,"’ he said, ‘*that Edmonton is the most centralized area for such a thing."’

Public meeting

next week

A group of St. Albert residents has confirmed that a public meeting has been called for next Thursday. At that meeting annexation procedures and how the layman may intervene in those procedures will be explained.

The meeting, which will go at 8 p.m. September 13 in Ronald Harvey School, was called as the first step in a grassroots response to Edmonton’s annexation proposal which goes before the LAB later this month.

Committees and a chairman will be chosen by those attending. Further information regarding the meeting is available by telephoning Dr. Richard Plain, 459-8062.

The explanations came late and long at last Tuesday night's council meeting when City Manager Bob Byron defended the mayor and himself for suggesting last week that St. Albert could be part of a metropolitan gov- ernment.

The meeting's agenda was complete except for the question and answer period when Mayor Ron Harvey asked Mr. Byron to report on the latest developments in St. Albert's opposition to the Edmonton major annexation proposal.

Mr. Byron responded by briefly listing the annexation staff who have been acquired to assist St. Albert and then launched into a lengthy explanation of comments

The newspaper reported that the two suggested St. Albert might accept a com- promise to annexation whereby it would be included in a metropolitan govern- ment that would have control

over water, sewers, trans- portation and possibly other utilities.

Mr. Byron emphasized to council that Friday's com- ments weren't meant to ‘sell out’ St. Albert. ‘‘We cannot simply in isolation say ‘no’ to the annexation. We have to look at alternatives that are available."

He said many municipal- ities in the Edmonton area are ‘‘desperate’’ for water and sewage management and, because ‘‘it has been a consistent theme in St. Albert to cooperate to aid the region,’’ a metropolitan form of government shouldn't be that objectionable. ?

Water, sewers, transpor- tation planning could all be governed by this new body, he told council, ‘‘One auth-

Byron defends metro proposal

ority would be responsible for the provision of these services, one, not a muni- cipality of authorities, one."’

He said that in answering the Journal reporter's ques- tions, he and Mr. Harvey had been thinking in terms of, ‘Here is St. Albert, here are its needs, and how can they best be met.”’

Mr. Byron told council that any suggestion of a ‘partial annexation’ of St. Albert through a metropolitan form of government posed no threat to the city in the upcoming annexation hear- ings because the governing body, the Local Authorities Board (LAB), had no power to decide anything beyond a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ vote on annex- ation.

A compromise solution, he

said, might be a matter for the province to deal with later. Mr. Byron said he hopes the government's atti- tude towards the hearings will be one which will ‘allow the process to take place for a rational discussion for the area's future.’’ In this way, he suggested, the LAB’s decision need not be a final one for St. Albert.

This is the perspective, he said, in which council should view his and the mayor's comments to the Journal last week, Any negative reaction to the newspaper article, he concluded, was the result of “assumptions being drawn and opinions formed which are premature.”’

“I don't think the article in the paper detracted from what our goal is,’’ responded
