ginger beer and pop bottles from Alex Phillips, the first bottler of soda pop in Western Canada, and from Christopher Morely, who had his factory in Waddington Alley in a building since refurbished into condos. The practice of hunting through silt and muck is called mudlarking, and dates back two centuries to impoverished Brits who scavenged the shores of the Thames River. Hygh, 54, has collected antique bottles for 40 years and enjoys the thrill of treasure hunting and its connection to local history. “I’m a history buff. I like relics like embossed bottles from Victoria or Nanaimo or Vancouver or San Francisco,” he said, noting that Alex Phillips first imported his bottles from San Francisco. “I do this as a hobby. We are the keepers of relics. We keep them for a while, then pass them on.” He normally hunts for old bottles “above the falls,” otherwise known as west of the Tillicum Bridge. Many sections of the Gorge were popular for swimming and socializing in the early 1900s, before the era of industry and pollution. “I walk the Gorge a couple times per year,” said Hygh, who lives in Nanaimo. “Other collectors walk it every day and still find stuff. Some people go in the water with (fishing) boots and wetsuits. That’s not for me. I scrounge around along the side.” --with reporting from Sharon Tiffin editor@saanichnews.com

Century-old bottles reflect long tradition of brewing beer in Greater Victoria
One colonist’s trash is another man’s treasure, given a century or so. Hunt around long enough in the Gorge Waterway and antique bottles can emerge from the muck. For Reece Hygh, the Gorge remains a treasure trove of old handmade bottles and clay jugs produced in breweries and factories dating to the earliest days of Fort Victoria. “The Gorge is one of the first places people partied. For Fort Victoria, the British colonists drank there and would toss in their bottles,” Hygh said. “You can still find really old bottles, embossed pop and beer bottles. We’ve found bottles marked ‘poison’. We’ve found U.S. Navy mustard bottles that date to 1858, dried mustard bottles. That is cool.” Probing the grasses and mud using a rake and a snorkel, Hygh and friend Chris Hill recently found a shard of a bottle stamped with ‘VB’ for Victoria Brewery, which is circa 1868. That early brewery first used water from Swan Lake and then moved into downtown Victoria. They’ve found

Esquimalt mulls sewage solutions at McLoughlin Point Daniel Palmer News staff
After an unprecedented three days of public hearings this week, Esquimalt council has tough decisions to make about a wastewater treatment plant at McLoughlin Point. On Monday and Tuesday, the Archie Browning Sports Centre played host to about 500 Esquimalt residents concerned about the final design of the facility, part of the Capi-
tal Region’s $783-million secondary sewage treatment project. Mayor Barb Desjardins has made clear the Township’s desire to harness the development as an economic generator and create a mixed-use facility at McLoughlin Point. Esquimalt’s creative project variances could include residential and commercial office space on top of the wastewater facility, as well as requiring the developer to build a dock at the site to barge construction supplies instead of trucking supplies through
the township. “I think council is going to make changes on Esquimalt’s terms, not (CRD) terms,” said Nick Kovacs, Esquimalt Residents Association co-chair, who was at Monday’s hearing. B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak said the province does have the authority to force through the zoning process if necessary. “But it’s our hope that won’t become necessary,” she said. Any delay to the project would require consultation with the federal government,
who have set a compliance deadline of 2020 for sewage treatment, Polak added. “I think we always knew that it would be a challenging process, that it would involve a lot of differing opinions expressed in the various communities,” she said. “But at the same time, we’ve also always supported the importance of taking care of this wastewater in an appropriate way that meets the guidelines.” Esquimalt council will consider the public input at a July 15 meeting. dpalmer@vicnews.com

Victoria’s Baby Molly succumbs to cancer
Victoria’s Molly Campbell has died in a Memphis, Tenn. hospital. The toddler was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a cancer of the white blood cells, at just 28 days old. She succumbed to the disease at St. Jude’s Hospital Wednesday morning. Dave and Rebekah Campbell moved to Memphis in November, along with Molly’s four siblings, to allow Molly to go through an experimental cancer treatment at a worldrenowned cancer care centre. In recent months, Greater Victoria residents rallied to provide financial and emotional support to the Campbells while they lived in the U.S.

Quadra elementary to undergo seismic upgrade Danielle Pope News staff
École Quadra elementary school will receive a safe birthday present this year, and join in the province’s mission to bring all schools up to the latest seismic standards. Construction began this week as part of a $9-million seismic upgrade to the school, with its completion to coincide with the school’s 100th birthday in the fall of 2014. “Student safety is a district prior-
ity and the Seismic Mitigation Program ensures every student feels safe at school,” said Peg Orcherton, Greater Victoria school district board chair. “I can think of no better way to commemorate the school’s 100th year than with these modern improvements.” The school, which originally opened in 1914, will see the addition of interior and exterior concrete shear walls, the removal of clay and brick chimneys and reinforc-
ing bars added to masonry walls, all thanks to the project agreement signed by the Ministry of Education and the Greater Victoria board of education. All four sections of the school require seismic upgrading, except the 1974 gym addition, which was upgraded in 2003. The elementary school has an enrolment of 305 kindergarten to Grade 5 students, with capacity for 515, and has been a rare division of Victoria’s education platform – it features a curriculum in both Eng-
lish and French, specialized music instruction for all grades and a unique First Nations program. Students will attend the former Richmond elementary school for the 2013-14 school year, with transportation provided. Since 2001, the provincial government has spent more than $2.5 billion and has committed more than $4.1 billion to school capital and maintenance projects throughout B.C. news@mondaymag.com

Andrew Almack is nearing the end of a personal, 30-day plastic-free campaign. He’s been buying bulk food and local produce and along the way has found himself eating healthier and saving money. Almack, 23, is trying to practice what he preaches as founder and managing director of a new organization called PlasticShore. The not-for-profit organization aims to raise awareness about the environmental impact of plastic debris and provides incentives and funding for community collection efforts. “Our whole mandate is to try to utilize plastic debris to create the greatest impact in society,” Almack said. PlasticShore is undertaking an online crowdfunding campaign to raise about $3,000 to run a pilot project for collection this summer. While the details have yet to be ironed out, Almack said he has recycling company EnCorp Pacific’s Return-It facilities on board as a collection point for material gathered by community groups.

But Almack, who has a business degree, knows there has to be a market for the material. That’s why a major part of the plan is to create a certification program for products manufactured from discarded plastics. “Just like Free Trade has created a demand for ethically sourced products, we want to create the same kind of demand for plastic-based products,” Almack said.

HAFI adapts homes for B.C. seniors and people with disabilities
Brenda has always been an active woman. However, recent health issues including osteoarthritis in her left knee and losing kidney function have slowed her down. Her mobility is limited and she is now on dialysis three days a week. To adjust to her changed circumstances, Brenda sought help with her daily living activities. Part of that help came from the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program offered through BC Housing. Launched in January 2012, the HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently. Brenda applied for a new walk-in bathtub because she couldn’t safely get out of the tub on her own. Walk-in tubs include additional safety measures such as anti-slip floors, grab bars, and a very low step in. Home adaptations may also include handrails in halls or stairs, ramps for

For the past few of months he’s been gathering support for the idea, primarily from young adults, but also from such organizations as University of Victoriabased Ocean Networks and the Georgia Strait Initiative. At a recent World Oceans Day celebration, Almack’s group showed off a board of lumber made from recycled plastic. From a mass marketing perspective, however, he envisions more everyday items such as office supply and household products being certified under the PlasticShore program. He hopes to gauge the public’s interest in such recycled products this summer.

When, after 60 years of prodding, the first national Korean War Veterans Day is celebrated July 27, Fred MacDonald will be thinking of his brother. Bruce MacDonald was among 516 Canadian soldiers who didn’t come home from the war. He was a machine gunner, killed by the enemy while defending a hill from the Chinese during the Battle of Kapyong, as recounted in John Melady’s quintessential book Korea: Canada’s Forgotten War. “He got killed April 25, ’51. He had only left Seattle at the end of March,” said Fred MacDonald, who lives in Langford. “Hardly gives you time to look around and see what’s going on. Not very nice.” Last month Minister of Veterans Affairs Steven Blaney, Sen. Yonah Martin and Saskatchewan MP Blaine Calkins announced the adoption of Bill S-213, which created Korean War Veterans Day, to be celebrated annually on July 27, the day the war ended. It’s been a long struggle to gain recognition for the veterans of a war largely ignored at the time and to this day, MacDonald said. “It seems like forever we’ve been trying something, and nothing’s happened.” The Korean War lasted from 1950 to 1953. It was a conflict between the Republic of Korea (South Korea), supported by the United Nations, and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea), supported by China and the Soviet Union. About 26,000 Canadians participated in the war, which was

Korean War veterans Fred MacDonald of Langford and Gary W. Hall, from Oak Bay, hold up a flag representing MacDonald’s brother Bruce, who died during the conflict. The first ever Korean War Veterans Day will be held on July 27, marking 60 years since the end of the war. initially regarded as an international police action. MacDonald’s friend, Gary W. Hall, who grew up in Victoria, joined in Feb. 1951. Hall was inspired by the stories his own brother brought back from his time with the Air Force in the Second World War. “When I finished Grade 10, I joined up. I was 17,” Hall said. “At that age your parents had to sign and my mother signed, but my father wouldn’t because he said one son was enough. But eventually he came around.” Fred MacDonald joined the army in 1950 in Peterborough, Ont. and was assigned to artillery. He was stationed in Victoria and shipped out to the war in 1952. He worked in brigade headquarters there and managed to keep away from the front lines, unlike his brother. After Bruce’s death, their mother received his outstanding pay and the Silver Cross in his honour, but nothing more. “I tried to get recognition for him. No way. (The government) wouldn’t even give me a letter saying ‘Thanks,’” Fred said.
Mexican arts fest set The seventh annual Festival Mexicano brings salsa, mariachi and pinatas to Centennial Square this weekend. Hosted by the Mexican Canadian Community Association of Victoria, the free event runs from noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday in the square.

Centennial Square activities include salsa dance lessons and performances, traditional Mexican food, craft vendors, workshops and family-friendly activities. For more info, go online to victoriamexicancanadian.org.
“That’s what makes me mad, too.” When the soldiers returned at the end of the war, or after a one-year rotation, many people didn’t even realize Canada was taking part in the conflict, MacDonald said. “Nobody knew we went, nobody knew we came home, the government didn’t recognize us.” With the day of honour now in place, MacDonald and Hall agreed Sen. Martin, who was born in Korea, is largely responsible for helping Korean War vets get the recognition they deserve. “If it wasn’t for her, we wouldn’t have any recognition right now at all,” MacDonald said. “She’s the one that’s done it all.” Even with the struggles for recognition, the two local veterans believe what they accomplished in Korea was worth the sacrifice. To this day, Koreans are extremely appreciative of what the soldiers did 60 years ago. As of yet, no celebration is planned for the Greater Victoria area. kwells@goldstreamgazette.com

OUR VIEW
Korean War vets earned respect We were heartened recently upon hearing Canadian veterans of the Korean War were finally to be recognized with their own day of remembrance. The Year of the Korean War Veteran was proclaimed by the federal government in January of this year, Those who fought to coincide with the 60th anniversary of in forgotten war the armistice signed in finally recognized 1953. But the enactment of a special day, July 27, to be marked in perpetuity to honour the sacrifices and efforts of Canadian soldiers, sailors and air force personnel, has more long-term significance. In all, 516 Canadians died and another 1,558 were wounded in the three-year conflict, a battle between the Soviet and China-supported north, and the south Koreans, supported by the United Nations, some of the member countries of which waged war against the Nazis just a handful of years previous. Stories retold by local Korea vets of surviving family members receiving little in the way of acknowledgement of their sons and daughters’ sacrifices from the Canadian government were both shocking and embarrassing. Media of the day largely ignored the conflict, to the point where many Canadians back home didn’t realize their country was playing a combat role in the war-torn region. Luckily, things have changed in 50 years, including the treatment of veterans and the value we place on their role in maintaining peace and reducing chaos in the world. Most wars in which Canada has been involved have aimed to achieve a political end for the greater good. The people on the front lines working to accomplish that aim – some of whom paid the ultimate price – deserve to be recognized for their efforts, which in the vast majority of cases are honest, true and patriotic. Regardless how one feels about war, the Canadians who have fought in them have, at the end of the day, worked to protect the rights and freedoms we should never take for granted. For that, they deserve our thanks. What do you think? Give us your comments by email: editor@goldstreamgazette.com or fax 250-478-6545.

In place since 2003, the Regional Growth Strategy proposes “keeping urban areas compact and largely contained,” while ensuring that the region’s wild spaces are left for future generations. That a proposal which failed to accommodate any existing plans for the Juan De Fuca area even made it to a vote reveals that The Shores and Wildwood have indeed set a precedent for development outside of the region’s urban areas.

Columnist’s portrayal of Canada was ‘disgusting’ Re: Rights under attack on Canada Day (The Capital, June 5) Simon Nattrass’ column on July 5 was an embarrassment to your publication. Victorians just had a bad week. We found out that our small city on an island at the edge of the world is not immune to the scourge of Islamic terrorism. On our beloved Canada Day, when citizens from coast to coast gather to celebrate what a wonderful country we live in, two of our own tried to murder and injure. We are all poorer because of it. So what does Simon Nattrass and the News do the following Friday? They kick us all in the teeth with a ridiculous editorial painting a picture of Canada
that is utterly disgusting. According to Nattrass, our police use Orwellian armoured vehicles and helicopters with search lights to harass harmless everyday citizens, Victoria was the staging point for “the genocide” of indigenous peoples up and down the coast, Victoria “orchestrated the spread of smallpox” to natives, and then Mr. Nattrass confesses that he can’t really get that “O Canada feeling” celebrating Canada Day on “stolen land.” Mr. Nattrass, let me tell you about Canadians. First of all, we are not apologists. Supposed injustices 100 or 150 years ago happened, you guessed it, 100 or 150 years ago, and had nothing to do with
us, so get over it. Secondly, no Canadian living today undertook any “colonization” of natives nor did anyone ever intentionally spread any disease to natives. Finally, the overwhelming majority of Canadians completely disagree with you. If Canada isn’t the best country in the world then it’s certainly in the discussion, and we are abundantly proud of what Canada is and will continue to be. No matter how many of you and your Marxist apologists graduate from our universities every year, you’ll always be greatly outnumbered by ordinary small-c Canadians that know our country is awesome from coast to coast.

he Pacific Tattoo started with a forgotten conversation following the 1992 military tattoo in Chilliwack. The military musical event brings together a collection of fire, police and armed forces bands, and will perform Saturday night and Sunday afternoon at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre. It’s been producer Roger McGuire’s dream since 1992 and now it’s come to fruition, moving into the 7,000 seat Memorial Centre after a debut at Bear Mountain Arena last year. The Tattoo is now an annual event. “McGuire was playing the bagpipes and came and told me at the end of the tattoo in Chilliwack that he wanted to do one,” Pacific Tattoo director Dave Tarry said. McGuire says it’s true and Tarry believes it, but he only knows he talked to a lot of people that weekend. Tarry ran a number of tattoos in the 1980s and 1990s at venues as big as the 16,000seat Pacific National Exhibition arena. When McGuire was seeking volunteers to help launch the first Pacific Tattoo back in 2011, Tarry showed up and they met again. “I figured I’d sell tickets, or hold the door, or do whatever I had to do. I just wanted to help,” Tarry said. “When we found out (Tarry) was available to help we knew we had a lot of expertise,” McGuire said. Bringing together 500 cast and crew on an arena floor is no easy feat and it’s been a long time coming for McGuire. He returned to the Island from that 1992 tattoo and started the Victoria Military Music Festival Society in 1993. A tattoo was always the plan, but wasn’t realistic at first. Instead he ran a series of military music events in Victoria over the course of 18 years. Throughout that time McGuire was also the Pipe Major of the Canadian Scottish Regiment Pipe and Drum band based out of the Bay Street Armoury. He led the regiment band to tattoos in Edinburgh, the Netherlands and Hawaii. “There’s a crossover between the involvement in armed forces the pipes and producing the Tattoo that’s suiting,” McGuire said. This year’s Pacific Tattoo has a fire and police

theme, with the Australian Federal Police Pipes and Drums, the Johan Willem Frisco Netherlands Army Band, Delta and Winnipeg Police Pipe bands, and several more. Of the 500 cast and crew there will be members of B.C. RCMP and firefighters, local Highland and Irish country dancers. One hundred and eighty-five of those will be carrying an instrument, 100 drums and 85 brass and reed. “When they all come together it’ll make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up,” Tarry said. Last year’s inaugural Pacific Tattoo carried a Queen’s Jubilee theme and featured 400 performers. Scheduling conflicts precluded the use of Royal Athletic Park. “It’s a big step moving into the arena for our second year. We hadn’t planned on making the jump so soon but it’s going well so far,” McGuire said. “One of the first challenges was old Memorial Arena not suiting us very well. But even when the new arena came together we had some other challenges. As a new event it’s a big step to move to (Memorial Centre) but we took it and now we’re making the best of it.” Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. on Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday at Memorial Centre. Tickets available in advance online at pacifictattoo.ca/tattoo-tickets.

TaTToo - Sgt Maj. Darren Campbell of the B.C. RCMP leads members of the RCMP and Naden
Band during rehearsal at CFB Esquimalt’s Wurtele Arena in preparation for the second annual Pacific Tattoo. The military, fire and police band event is July 13 and 14 at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre. Behind Campbell from left are Const. Kim Hartigan (Richmond RCMP), Const.

Christy Mohr (North Vancouver RCMP) and Corp. Mike Spencer (Surrey RCMP).
It is said that British troops were stationed in the lowlands of Holland in the 17th century. To recall them to their garrisons each night, drummers were sent through the villages playing doe den tap toe, which translated as “turn off the tap,” so the innkeepers knew to stop serving beer. One drummer led to two drummers which led to four drummers, and tap toe morphed into tattoo. Now it’s come to represent a military festival of music and dancing. - All 500 cast and crew will dine in the Victoria Curling Club. - A dance crew from Stages Performing Arts School will add a touch of comedy with an original Keystone Cops style skit.

West Lake ButterfLy GirLs Band
weekend
Butterfly Band spreads its wings You’ve probably never heard of a pipa, shimianluo or daluo, but on Sunday Alix Goolden Performance Hall will be filled with their music, played by one of China’s most acclaimed traditional performance bands. The West Lake Butterfly Girls Band are visiting from China’s Zhejiang province as part of the Canadian-Chinese Performing Arts Festival. The 18-member band has already graced stages as prominent as New York’s Lincoln Centre to share music that predates modern history. “Zheijiang is the province where Suzhou is located, the sister city of Victoria,” said Thomas Leung, president of the Canada-China Friendship Association, Victoria branch. “A lot of these instruments — harpsichords, flutes, gongs and two-stringed erhus — the Canadian population are not accustomed to hearing many of them, so it’s a great opportunity to listen to a world-class band, particularly in Victoria,” Leung said. The performance is part of a seven-week arts festival organized to promote Chinese culture and promote co-operation between Canada and China, Leung added. This is a very highly accomplished ladies group, wonderful artists and beautiful people as well,” he said. The show is Sunday at 8pm.The $25 tickets are available through the McPherson Playhouse box office at 250-386-6121 or by calling Leung at 250-220-6138.

Laroche’s art work is uplifting Sidney artist Odette Laroche is joining fellow Federation of Canadian Artists member Linda Anderson in a joint show at the Coast Collective Gallery in Colwood this month. Laroche, who runs her own gallery and teaches painting to area students, is looking forward to showing her collected works at Bold Living Paintings, until July 14. Laroche creates images in bold colours, thick with texture, depicting scenes that, while not completely real, evoke memory in each viewer. She said her work — done mainly in oils in techniques she has honed over her many years of painting — invokes the feeling that the viewer has been there before. “If I want a place to be recognizable, I will look at the form and structure of the place and translate it into my work,” she said. “It’s a path and a journey that the viewer takes.” For her, painting is a journey and she enjoys it immensely. She mainly works in landscapes but does make the odd foray into portraits, which requires her to work more realistically. “My goal in painting is to make them uplifting, enjoyable, with lots of colour and texture. I want to take people to a place they haven’t been before, or maybe trigger a memory.” The show in Colwood this month will feature some of Laroche’s larger works, many of which she keeps in her gallery off of Beacon Avenue, next to the Fairway Market. It’s also there where she hosts students, young and old, who want to learn to express their art. Later this month, on July 20, Laroche will also be at the Greater Victoria Art Gallery Paint-In.

A call to Revolution
Greta Gerwig stars as Frances in Frances Ha, which opens today at the Empire 6. Photo contributed
A loosely choreographed life
I
f there was ever any question that Greta Gerwig (Lola Versus) is the new indie It Girl, all doubt is removed with Frances Ha, a jauntily episodic account of 20-somethings trying to make their way in New York City. Gerwig plays Frances, a 27-year-old apprentice dancer and choreographer at the periphery of a Manhattan dance company. Full-time employment eludes her, and our sometimes ungainly and neurotic heroine thus has lots of time to tug at the many loose ends of her messy private life. At the beginning of the film she breaks up with her boyfriend, mostly because she’d rather keep sharing a lease with
her best gal pal, Sophie. That arrangement soon upends as Sophie moves in with a fellow that the two young women had long disparaged. Frances is soon looking for other living arrangements, and eventually new employment, all the while trying to negotiate friendships and relationships with a circle of acquaintances who are casual about sex and sardonic about the self-conscious lives they all lead. Estranged from Sophie, the increasingly confused Frances has a rough few months as she flails around trying to find a satisfying path in life. Although this is all routine stuff – think HBO’s Girls, but on a bigger canvas – this well-observed film is
charged with deadpan humour that will spark hoots of rueful recognition in the audience. Gerwig, who co-wrote the script with director and real-life lover Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the Whale), creates a fully fleshed character who is deeply flawed, often lacking in good judgement, and marvelously human. Never sitcomcute, the sometimes-unlikable Frances, who self-identifies as “undateable,” is fascinating and always-believable company. And as she slowly stumbles towards maturity, it’s impossible not to wish her well. Rating: ★★★½
H
ollywood thrillers so much emphasize visceral impact over underlying ideas that it is almost startling to enter the world of The East, a thoughtful if rather earnest look into the shadowy realm of eco-terrorism. The film stars Brit Marling as Sarah, an ex-FBI agent who has recently been hired by an elite security firm with a roster of multinational clients. Sarah is asked to go undercover and infiltrate The East, a cell of eco-radicals who believe in inflicting violent reprisals on the top brass of, say, pharmaceutical companies who knowingly sell dangerous antibiotics, or oil refineries whose chemical pollution causes cancer. Sarah successfully worms her way into the middle of this group of anarchists whose members include an angry and suspicious young woman (Ellen Page), a med school dropout, and the group’s soulful leader (Alexander Skarsgard), Benji.
weekend
Initially a dutiful spy, Sarah gradually finds herself falling not only for Benji but also his logic of raising public awareness by inflicting harsh consequences on “eco-criminals” who would otherwise go unpunished. And when Sarah realizes that her own boss is also a callous bastard, she is liberated to readjust her moral compass. But how far will she go? East has a slightly mysterious air that marks it as more arthouse film than genre exercise. But moodiness can only take you so far, and many of the scenes – both in the anarchists’ abandoned farmhouse and the boardroom of the security firm – don’t quite ring true (the fact that Sarah looks more like a Vogue model than a freegan dumpster diver isn’t even the most improbable thing in the film). But notwithstanding its dopey ending and other flaws, this is well worth watching. Rating: ★★½ The East continues at the Odeon.
Frances Ha opens Friday at the Empire 6.

OPENING
★★★½ FRANCES HA -(Empire 6) Greta Gerwig, the new indie It Girl, stars in this droll comedy-drama about a 20-something wannabe dancer in New York who is having trouble putting her life together. Starts Fri. See review. PACIFIC RIM -(Odeon/SilverCity/ Westshore/Empire Uni 4) Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth)
directs this Transformers-ish epic about aliens who attack Earth and are resisted by giant robots that are controlled by human “pilots.” The planet gets trashed – once again – starting Fri. GROWN UPS 2 -(Odeon/ SilverCityWestshore) Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade reunite for more lowbrow shenanigans as these old pals from high school return to their hometown
to find all sorts of craziness awaiting them. Starts Fri. ★★★½ THE SAPPHIRES -(Caprice, Cinecenta) Sixties soul music is at the centre of this delightful, true-life story about four young Australian aboriginal singers who hooked up with a wacky promoter and toured American military bases in Vietnam, performing Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett songs to adoring soldiers. Starts Fri.
CONTINUING
★★★½ BEFORE MIDNIGHT -(Empire Uni 4) Richard Linklater’s third installment of the charming – and chatty – love-denied story of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) has lots of surprises … not least of which is that the starcrossed lovers have finally hooked up. Between the atmospheric Greek locale and the well-crafted dialogue this is a grand cine-treat for those

already bored with the summer’s superhero blockbusters. THE CROODS - (Caprice) A prehistoric family taking an unexpected “road trip” into a magical land is the plot of this whimsical animated charmer (which has been getting great reviews). With the vocal talents of Emma Stone, Nicolas Cage, and Ryan Reynolds. EPIC - (Caprice) In this animated family adventure a teenage girl is magically transported to a deep forest setting where she bands together with a wacky crew of critters to help battle a terrifyingly dark force that is threatening their world … and ours. Note: moves from the Westshore to the Caprice on Fri. ★★½ DESPICABLE ME 2 -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Westshore/Empire Uni 4) The 2010 original, about a loathsome criminal mastermind who was reformed by the love of three young orphan girls, was a goofy delight. The sequel, although still clever, is much more scattershot, with an unimaginative plot and unwelcome dashes of mean spiritedness. Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, and Russell Brand supply the voices. ★★½ THE EAST -(Odeon) Interesting moral complexities are explored when a female undercover operative infiltrates a violent anarchist group that attacks evil corporations … and she slowly finds herself becoming attracted to the group’s point of view. Starring Ellen Page, Brit Marling, Alexander Skarsgard. See review. ★★½ FAST & FURIOUS 6 (Caprice) The high-octane series continues, with ever-wilder stunts. In this outing Dom’s crew is asked to take down an ex-Special Ops soldier who has morphed into a supercriminal specializing in vehicular warfare. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, and Paul Walker. ★★½ THE HEAT -(Odeon/SilverCity/ Westshore) In this raucous and sometimes hit-and-miss comedy from Paul Feig (Knocked Up), Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids) play odd-couple cops who will have to learn to work together if they are to stand a chance of taking down the drug lord who’s their assigned target. ★★★ IRON MAN 3 -(Caprice) An emotionally unbalanced Iron Man (Robert Downey) goes up against the terrifying Mandarin (Ben Kingsley), one of the more intriguing megalomaniacs of recent years. Despite being a step down from the original – and a bit long-winded and bombastic – this is an imaginative, humourous and fast-paced thrill ride. With Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle and Guy Pearce. ★★ THE LONE RANGER -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Westshore) More proves to be less, as the classic western TV show from the 1950s that featured a masked lawman and his Native American sidekick gets a predictably grandiose treatment from director Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean). Starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer. To be fair, this is much slicker and more entertaining than the vindictive critical dog pile would make you imagine it is.

weekend ★★½ MAN OF STEEL -(Empire 6/SilverCity/ Westshore/Caprice) Zack Snyder (The Watchmen, 300) helms this occasionally interesting but mostly inflated reboot of the series about the original caped superhero. Starring Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, and Michael Shannon, who is brilliant as the villainous General Zod. MONSTERS UNIVERSITY -(Empire 6/SilverCity/Westshore) In this prequel to the 2001 animated smash about fuzzy plush-toy monsters, we go back to the early days when Sully (John Goodman) and Mike (Billy Crystal) met at university. ★★ NOW YOU SEE ME -(Empire 6/Caprice) The FBI and Interpol combine forces to battle a clever crew of Las Vegas illusionists who seem to be robbing banks … while simultaneously performing for a casino audience. Despite a great cast that includes Morgan Freeman, Mark Ruffalo, and Jesse Eisenberg, this is a flabby caper film with little magic to it. ★★½ OBLIVION -(Roxy, 9:15) Tom Cruise stars in a visually stylish but rather dull and derivative sci-fi thriller about a man who returns to a ruined Earth to extract its remaining resources when strange things start to happen and he begins to question his mission and himself. ★★★½ STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS -(Roxy, 7:00) J.J. Abrams retains the helm of the rebooted Star Trek franchise with this entertaining and engaging tale about a youthful Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) tackling a seemingly unstoppable one-man weapon of mass destruction. With Bruce Greenwood, Zoe Saldana, and a sinister Benedict Cumberbatch. ★★★ THIS IS THE END -(Odeon/ SilverCity) In this truly whacked comedy, stars such as Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel and Jonah Hill play themselves as they party at James Franco’s house – only to find themselves confronting a terrifying, demon-filled apocalypse. Although a bit oversold and rather slapdash, this is very funny (and very rude). ★★ WHITE HOUSE DOWN -(Empire 6/SilverCity/Caprice) As if Barack Obama didn’t have enough problems, the White House falls under attack – again! – by terrorists, and there’s only one off-duty cop (Channing Tatum) on the inside who is left alive and able to give the bad guys a thumping. Basically, this is lots of good actors slumming in a cheesy-fun flick that slowly becomes jaw-droppingly corny and preposterous. ★★★ WORLD WAR Z -(Empire 6, SilverCity, Empire Uni 4, Westshore)
Countries topple and armies shatter in the face of a zombie pandemic, as a shaggy-haired Brad Pitt tries to save the world. This is an intense and intelligent movie that uses zombies to embody the more plausible horror of a SARS-like threat to the planet.

Minor Braves call for volunteers
Susan Simmons swims in the open waters of the Strait of Georgia in 2011 as part of a relay team. Simmons and her two teammates swam one hour shifts across the 34-kilometre crossing from Sechelt to Nanaimo. Simmons estimates her distance at about nine kilometres, less than a third of what she’ll attempt on July 20. Photo by Jim Close
A cold answer to MS Athlete a model for multiple sclerosis Travis Paterson News staff
When Susan Simmons was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis she was told not to exercise. That’s because until recently the medical system told most people with MS to hold off exercising, and for good reason. Exercise heats the body and overheating is a known trigger for MS symptoms. But new knowledge is changing the approach to dealing with MS. Simmons, for example, was once confined to the couch. She was 80 pounds heavier and suffered temporary blindness, up to two months at a time. Exercise, and her will to stick with it, has brought her back to a functioning status beyond that of most 48-year-olds. She’s currently preparing for her biggest open-water swimming achievement yet, as she attempts to conquer the length of Cowichan Lake on July 20. It’s 34 kilometres from Heather Campsite to the Town of Lake Cowichan. In fact if it wasn’t for the potentially debilitating disease, the James Bay resident may not have become the ultra-distance swimmer that she is. After 12 years with the disease, and “a lot” of medically prescribed drugs, Simmons said her health was clearly headed in a downward spiral. “I started exercising when I was 40 because I knew something had to happen, or I was going to end up in a wheelchair,” she said.
As a youth Simmons loved swimming, and the temperature of the pool matched with the knowledge she needed to keep her body cool. “At first it would be a few laps in the pool followed by a two- to threehour nap. It got better and better.” To prepare for Cowichan Lake, Simmons has branched from her Victoria Masters swim group at Crystal Pool and joined three more, the Tyee Aquatic Club, Mercury Rising Triathlon and YMCA Victoria.
been setbacks, but you won’t hear any complaining from Simmons. A (mostly) raw food diet to go with the heavy swimming regimen has changed her mindset. She’s a model for others with MS. Her blog, MSathlete.org, is accessed worldwide. “I get emails from out-of-country, ones that really move me, people who say, ‘I used to be a runner or swimmer and now I’m back at it since being diagnosed,’” she says. “What really moves me are emails
Did you know? ■ Not everyone has the opportunity to exercise against MS as it’s more progressive for some than others. ■ Simmons is a five-time participant and co-organizer of the HtO Thetis Lake Swim for MS. The July 28 fundraiser has several distances, 800-metre, 1.5 km, three and five km distances. ■ The 1.5 and 3 km Thetis Lake swims also act as Masters Provincial Championship distances. ■ Fifty percent of the money raised will go towards a cure for MS and 50 per cent will help fund a fitness program for people with MS in the community. ■ In addition to her four masters swim clubs Simmons is also part of an unofficial Sunday morning
“Masters swimming clubs don’t do the kind of kilometres I need so I’ve had to find more. It’s not much fun doing 50 kilometres per week in the pool by yourself.” Even during her taper this week, Simmons is swimming a total of 30 km. Through the years there have

that say, ‘You’ve inspired and motivated me to get fit for a half-marathon.’ I live for that.” Others who contact her are still in the early stages of exercising. “They need a three hour nap after 10 laps in the pool, and that’s a thrill too because I’ve been there.” Simmons’ current neurologist is
fairly new to her and is happy she’s exercising, she says. “I think the MS community has realized (the importance of exercise) and more are doing it.” Simmons won’t be alone for the Lake Cowichan swim. Swimming alongside her is Alex Cape, a 34-year-old Canadian Forces army medic and member of the Vic Masters club. They’ll be escorted by a support crew of friends and family in boats, and are inviting swimmers to jump in for a stint along the way. If Simmons completes it without incurring any serious health hazards, such as hallucinating or suffering hypothermia, she’ll strongly consider attempting the English Channel (charmingly, the distance from Dover to Calais also 34 km). As a swimming purist, Simmons won’t wear a wetsuit. It offers buoyancy and is not in accordance with the Channel Swimming Association guidelines. Cowichan will be cool, but not as cold as the Channel. However the freshwater will be less buoyant than the ocean. The swim is estimated to take 10 to 11 hours. Two years ago Simmons swam with an all-women’s relay team across the Strait of Georgia, 34 km from Sechelt to Nanaimo (Simmons’ estimates her contribution at around eight to 10 km). Last year Simmons completed the Vancouver Open Water Swim Association’s Bay Challenge, a 10-km swim across the Burrard Inlet from West Vancouver to Kitsilano Beach. “I thought I was hallucinating in the Burrard Inlet when I saw a massive animal beside me. Turns out it was a grey whale.” sports@vicnews.com
It’s summer time, the best time of year to look at youth hockey, hockey parents and the politics that go with it. Player assessments are coming up in August and the Saanich Braves Minor Hockey Association would love to have people with hockey backgrounds making non-biased decisions when grading players’ for skill. “We’re always looking for coaches and new people to come in and help coach and do player assessments with a non-biased persective,” said Norm Westhaver, vice president and coach coordinator. “Not to take away from parent volunteers. You need to have parents contributing and we’ll have parents come forward but we want to put it out there that we’re always looking for non-parents to commit beforehand.” Westhaver played for the minor Braves organization as a kid and was a Jr. B Brave after that. Now all four of his sons, ages seven, 10, 12 and 14, are part of the league and Westhaver wanted to help out. “We’ve removed a paid hockey ops position and have now got a number of volunteers handling the different tasks,” Westhaver said. “There’s always a need for coaches and other volunteers.” The Braves teams play out of George R. Pearkes Community Rec. Centre. Contact Westhaver at normwest@telus.net.

Just what is it about ‘32 Fords that has sparked so much passion among classic car enthusiasts that they the deserve their own premier billing at next weekend’s JENNIFER BLYTH Northwest Deuce Days BLACK PRESS event? They’re great looking cars, for sure, and their design is well-suited to stunning modifications for a creative eye. But more than that, the 1932 Ford – or Deuce, as it’s affectionately known – was only made for nine months before the unique body design gave way to a number of significant changes, explains Deuce Days founder and co-ordinator Al Clark. “Because it was so rare, everyone wanted one.” Continued on Pg.

Deuce Days founder enjoys a life-long passion for classic rides By Jennifer Blyth
To say cars have been a life-long passion of Fairfield’s Al Clark might be a bit of an understatement. Clark first got his hands under the hood as a youngster, his interest piqued by an older brother who was very much into cars. After learning the ins and outs of keeping a vehicle running, Clark purchased his first car at age 15 – a 1942 Ford he had to tow home. “I didn’t even realize what I’d bought,” he recalls. A friend had an old car with an engine so they put the two together and sold for a profit, setting Clark along a path he continues to drive this day. His next car was a 1948 Chev coupe he saved all summer for, paying $225, and then setting about customizing it in time to drive it for his Grade 12 year at Mt. Douglas High School. At 16, he joined the Quarter-Miler’s Club, one of Victoria’s first car racing clubs, and under its banner he raced a dragster at the Cobble Hill track, in Arlington, WA and later at Mission Speedway for 13 years. “It went 149 mph in 9.2 seconds,” he recalls. His day job at the shipyards kept him busy until 1997, but in between he still found time to host a series of car shows, first with the Quarter-Milers, and then for the International Car Show Association. From 1974 to 1988, the shows were held indoors initially at the former Memorial Arena, then in Esquimalt at the Archie Browning Rec Centre. “In 1991, I decided to try to put on my own show,” Clark recalls.
The idea for Deuce Days came about a few years later and the inaugural event was held in 1998 at Kinsmen Gorge Park, welcoming about 100 primarily local and lower Mainland cars. Two years later, he moved to the the Oak Bay Village, and since then, following a year in Chilliwack in 2002, Deuce Days has enjoyed terrific success along Victoria’s Inner Harbour. With a steadily increasing number of cars and enthusiasts, the event this year has

more than 960 cars registered and is expected to attract 50,000 people. Clark enjoys travelling to shows in other cities, meeting other enthusiasts, renewing old friendships, and in turn encouraging return visits to Deuce Days. “It’s really neat when they all

Sharon Tiffin/News staff Al Clark’s ‘32 Ford Roadster, “So-Lo II” is a tribute to his brother Colin’s sectioned ‘49 Ford, “So-Lo.”
start arriving in town,” Clark says. These days, when not undertaking the myriad details required to host one of North America’s favourite classic car shows, Clark enjoys creating his own custom vehicles – from Model As to 1940s – both for his own use and for others. His favourite? Probably a threewindow ‘32 coupe, jet black with green rims. “They’re so rare,” he explains. “They were a prototype for the ‘33 model, with suicide doors, molded rain gutters...all sorts of little features they were testing.” Today, enthusiasts can even build an entirely new Deuce from brand new parts, fabricated to match the original. Clark’s current ride is his fourth Deuce, a pale blue ‘32 Ford Roadster with tan upholstery and orange accents, which took eight months to complete from start to finish. “I wanted it to be nostalgic looking; picking the colours was the hard thing.” Then he saw a Volkswagen in pale blue and another in tan. To test the look, “I had paint cans I painted blue and tan, then I laid an orange straw between them.” The name of the roadster, “So-Lo II,” is a tribute to his older brother’s sectioned down 1949 Ford, “So-Lo.” While his brother has passed away, the memories of times shared over their vehicles remains, and as his next project, Clark would like to recreate that ‘49 Ford his brother loved driving in the ‘60s. Not a Deuce, but very special all the same.

known as the Candy Apple because it had the first candy apple paint job on the West Coast. Let’s go back to 1950 when a young car painter named Joe Mahovlich bought an original 1932 Ford roadster in Vancouver. He was excited by the hot rod craze spreading up the coast from California and began to customize his car. He removed the running boards, hood and fenders. Then he channeled the body to lower it over the frame rails so the roadster was low-slung and sleek. He rebuilt the frame and suspension, chroming almost everything including the cotter pins.

In 1955, the partially completed hot rod was purchased by Chuck Robinson who was painting cars for a downtown Vancouver GM dealership called Bow-Mac. Chuck rebuilt the roadster and installed a new Buick Century V8 engine that had been shipped to the dealership so the mechanics could learn about it. By the time he got around to painting the car, Chuck had become the area sales manager for Ditzler Paint. He was vacationing on the beach in Los Angeles when a girl eating a candy apple said it would really be something to paint his car that colour.

Rediscovered Hot Rod at continued from B8
a four-stage paint job that gave his roadster the very first candy apple paint job. “This was decades before today’s two stage basecoat-clearcoat paint,” Chuck recalls. His car became known as the Candy Apple as he picked up armloads of trophies at custom car shows up and down the coast. “The Americans weren’t too happy seeing a Canadian car winning awards for the best paint every time but I did eventually make a lot of friends,” Chuck says of the excitement of that era nearly 60 years ago. In 1958, he sold the car to Port Alberni pilot Ray Bowerman who continued to win awards at shows on Vancouver Island, including the Victoria Curling Rink. The-now famous hot rod passed through a series of owners in the Alberni Valley in the early 1960s until it was caught in the tsunami that hit lower Port Alberni in 1964. The car was partially submerged in salt water. With the resulting damage, the owner decided to sell the car in parts with most of the fully chromed suspension and other pieces going to new owners and the rest of the car cut into pieces. Those bits and pieces ended up hanging on the walls of a garage in Victoria when Jim Jennings decided he wanted to build a roadster. He made the purchase and trucked everything home. He was 10 years into the build when he was approached to trade his partially completed Deuce roadster for a 1934 coupe that was a completed hot rod and worth much more. “There was
The rediscovered, rebuilt Candy Apple Deuce was recently displayed at Vancouver’s Pacific National Exhibition where the hot rod was originally shown in the 1950s. Chuck Robinson installed a new mid 1950s Buick V8 with all parts chrome plated in his Candy Apple Deuce hot rod.
something about his keen interest that made me think there was more to my car than I knew,” he recalls. Then the would-be purchaser gave Jim a copy of a 1960 Hot Rod magazine featuring the Candy Apple hot rod. Other car bugs and friends followed up with more information. He got a November 1958 issue of Car Craft Magazine featuring his car, trophies from Seattle’s SeaFair Autorama in 1957 for Best Hot Rod and Best Competition Roadster, and a BC
Custom Car Association award for Abbotsford race track top eliminator recording the Candy Apple was timed at 123 miles per hour in 13.1 seconds on the quarter mile run. “Now I knew that I had to restore the car as close to the way she had been in 1958 and not follow my original plans,” Jim says.
By that time, word was spreading that the Candy Apple had been found and was being restored. He either contacted or reached out to eight people who had owned the car. He received photos of the car as it had been in the 1950s and early 1960s to make the restoration as authentic as possible. Highlights included taking the finished car to meet Chuck Robinson, who had turned Candy Apple into one of the West Coast’s top drag race and show cars. Jim also met Joe Mahovlich, who shared memories of building the roadster in the early 1950s. Jim now has a complete photographic history of the Candy Apple going back more than 60 years. As one of British Columbia’s most historic hot rods, it will be displayed at the Northwest Deuce Days show along with hundreds of others from Canada, all over the U.S. and as far away as Europe and Australia.
