Three arrested on drug charges have bail hearing RCMP A bail hearing was conducted for three of the individuals arrested on July 10 after a search warrant was executed in Cranbrook. One subject was remanded in custody and will appear in court on Monday, July 20. A second person was released on a $20,000 surety (bail) for court on Monday, July 20, a third individual from the Lower Mainland was released on the condition that he not to be in Cranbrook unless it’s for court, scheduled for Aug 17. A fourth individual was released by police on a Promise to
Appear for court on Aug 17. All four were charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, three were charged with Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking and one with Flight from Police. Seized from the persons, vehicle and hotel room was more than $4500 cash, more than 200 grams of crack cocaine, 14 grams of MDMA and 76 Fentanyl Pills. In addition police seized a VW Jetta as offence related property. Cpl. Chris Newel says, “The quantities and types of drugs seized are very concern-
ing, these drugs are highly addictive and dangerous. In a number of cases we have found persons are buying drugs that are not what they are purported to be. This in itself is a huge concern.” Three of the individuals were not from Cranbrook but had moved in believing there was a void in the market. Our Cranbrook/ Kimberley Crime Reduction team quickly initiated an investigation and was able to successfully make an arrest and seize dangerous drugs before they hit the streets of our community.

Outlook
Revelstoke, BC — Seventeen adults, 11 calves (three to six weeks old) and one juvenile caribou were recently released from a maternal pen near Revelstoke. The release is part of a multi-stakeholder pilot project by the Revelstoke Caribou Rearing in the Wild Society (RCRW) aimed at increasing the number of endangered mountain caribou in the Columbia Mountains. Maternal penning is designed to increase calf survival by protecting cows and calves from predation during late gestation and the first few weeks of life Adult female caribou were captured in April and transported to a predator-resistant enclosure and have been tended by shepherds. The released animals have now moved into their natural high-elevation summer range and will be monitored for the next eight months using satellite-linked collars. During captivity there were five mortalities —an adult cow and four calves. The causes of these deaths varied. An adult cow and her calf died due to poor physical condition; three other calves died as a result of abandonment, injury (consistent with trampling) and infection, respectively. From the beginning, the project has implemented professionally reviewed standards of care. In the interest of improving care and gaining insight into sources of caribou mortality, a wildlife veterinarian re-assessed the caribou, the site and procedures. Recommendations from this assessment were implemented immediately,

Crashes spark tour bus safety review Tom Fletcher Black Press
A recent tour bus crash on the Coquihalla Highway that injured 30 passengers and threw the driver out through the windshield has prompted a review of motor coach safety in B.C. One likely change is the requirement for seatbelts in motor coaches, which has been adopted south of the border. A 2013 survey of motor coach operators by the B.C. Trucking Association found that
most B.C. companies support mandatory seatbelts, and many have already introduced them. New U.S. government regulations take effect in 2016, requiring new motor coaches to have three-point lap and shoulder seat belts on passenger seats. The U.S. regulation does not extend to transit and school buses, and does not require retrofitting of existing buses. Announcing the safety review Thursday,
Transportation Minister Todd Stone referred to the June 27 collision on the Coquihalla Highway, and another on the same highway a year earlier. Stone stressed that despite those incidents, commercial vehicle crashes in B.C. have declined by 24 per cent in the past decade, thanks to strict licensing and vehicle inspection programs. Stone said the review will look at other measures such as mandatory
rest periods for drivers. Doug Switzer, CEO of national industry group Motor Coach Canada, said most safety regulations are set by the federal government, and consistent from province to province. He said the Canadian industry supports introducing seatbelts. “Whether or not people will wear them is another issue, but we would certainly support making seatbelts mandatory on all new coaches,” Switzer told CBC

Tour buses are a key part of B.C.’s tourism industry, and most companies support mandatory seat belts. radio. “That’s probably the biggest thing we can do to reduce the impact of collisions when they do occur.” One issue for the in-
dustry is enforcement, and whether the driver can be ticketed if bus passengers don’t wear their seatbelts. Transport Canada’s

position has been that school buses are safe with closely spaced, high-back seats that reduce passenger impact in collisions. Stock quotes as of closing 07/17/15

Pictured are Brien Browne and Greg Ross of the Jimsmith Lake Community Association, ready to deliver 12 hand made bat boxes to residents of Jim Smith lake. Community interest in bats peeked after a presentation by members of the Kootenay Community Bat Project at the JSL annual summer party last year. Also in 2014, Directors made and installed a nursery box and a two chambered rocket box on a path near the boat launch in Jimsmith Provincial Park. Along with an informational sign, the goal of this project is to raise awareness about bat conservation in the Kootenays. Last week two of our members participated in a bat count at Baynes Lake Community Centre and helped count over 700 bats and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. With education, there are many communities are now involved in the bat conservation project.

City staff noted the contract in place is with Maple Leaf Forestry Ltd. from 2015-2017. It includes noxious weed control for cityowned properties both inside and outside the municipal boundary. The priorities have been identified as heavily travelled parks, recreation areas and roadway corridors, plus cityowned properties adjacent to these areas where weeds spread. City staff wrote that a large portion of the work is done via an ATV with attached spray equipment. The Public Works Parks Foreman will look into training opportunities to assist with this program.

COTR Nursing Students Travel to Kenya Submit ted
Four College of the Rockies nursing students recently took part in a two-week exchange in Nyeri, Kenya. The trip was made possible by the College’s International department as part of the Maternal Access and Infant Survival for Health Services (MAISHA) project and facilitated by long-time College partner Dedan Kimathi University of Technology (DeKUT). The four students, Jordanna McGregor, Jacqueline Strauss, Sylvia Breton and Angela Hoover are enrolled in the College’s Bachelor of Science Nursing (BSN) and Practical Nursing programs. College of the Rockies’ Health, Human and Family Services instructor Jeff Quinn and Okanagan College’s Chair of the BSN pro-
gram, Monique Powell, also participated in the exchange. While in Kenya, the students were able to observe the instruction and practice of health services from a Kenyan perspective while also learning from the Canadian instructors who accompanied them. “This was a life-changing experience that I will forever cherish,” says Hoover. “I was able to observe many differences in maternal health care between Canada and Kenya and witnessed many different cultural nursing practices.” “This experience will never be taught in a class,” agrees Breton. “There wasn’t one day where I felt that I wasn’t learning something.” The exchange proved to be educational on many levels. “It has

I was also
able to enhance my personal sense of community.” The learning wasn’t limited to that of the students, however. Quinn and Powell led several
classes over the duration of their stay and found the experience valuable for their own professional development. “It was a great oppor-
tunity to teach, learn and participate in nursing within a different cultural climate. We will be able to use what we experienced in Kenya in our personal teaching
and nursing practices in the future,” adds Quinn. It was not all work for the students and instructors. A mid-trip excursion to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy provided an opportunity for them to experience Kenya’s diverse wildlife closeup, while providing a much-needed break before resuming a second busy week at the MAISHA health facilities. College of the Rockies’ Manager, International Projects and Partnerships, Moritz Schmidt is pleased his department was able to provide this opportunity to the students and staff and is thankful for the reception they received. “DeKUT and MAISHA coordinator Winnie Koima worked tirelessly to accommodate us and deserves our utmost appreciation for being so welcoming,” he says.
The Biography of Malcolm Little “I
knew right there in prison that reading had changed forever the course of my life.” So wrote Malcolm Little in 1965, in a book nobody wanted to touch. Born in 1925 in Omaha, Nebraska, Little’s life was a struggle from the beginning. His father was murdered when he was six, and his mother was institutionalized not long after. He and his seven siblings were split up and sent to various foster homes. Despite the trauma of parental loss, Little adjusted and excelled at school, and was elected class president at his junior high. When his grade ten English teacher asked him what he wanted to do when he grew up, Little replied he would like to be a lawyer. The teacher simply frowned and said “one of life’s first needs is for us to be realistic ... you need to think of something you can be ... why don’t you plan on carpentry?” His need to “be realistic” stemmed the fact that Malcolm Little’s skin was black. He left school that day never to return. Little soon drifted around the streets of New York and Boston; engaging in illegal gambling, drug dealing, pimping, and racketeering. He was known in the criminal underworld as Detroit Red — the first of his numerous name changes. His life in this world ended in the winter of 1945, when he was arrested for grand larceny, and

sentenced to ten years in Charlestown State Prison. Having no access to the street drugs he had been in using, his forced withdrawal made him so fierce-tempered he was soon known as Satan. His aggressive behaviour frequently landed him in solitary confinement, which is where he discovered not only a love of reading, but also a fascination with a religious movement called The Nation of Islam. The Nation of Islam (not to be confused with Islam) was founded in 1930 by Detroit’s Wallace D. Fard Muhammad. By the time Malcolm Little encountered it, it was being run by Elijah Muhammad. Little (aka Detroit Red, aka Satan) corresponded with Elijah Muhammad, who welcomed him into the Nation of Islam. Upon his release in 1953, Little became the most electrifying and charismatic champion of the Nation anyone had ever seen. It was then he changed his name again, this time to Malcolm X. Malcolm X simply terrified people. While the Civil Rights Movement was just beginning to sweep the American South, Malcolm X was having none of it. He rejected nonviolence and inte-
gration, and preached of Black Separatism via armed rebellion. He felt Martin Luther King Jr. was a “chump” and an “Uncle Tom,” and pelted him with eggs during a speech in Harlem. Malcolm X and The Nation saw all whites as “the blue-eyed devil,’ and their days were numbered. “We’re not Americans,” he stated, “we’re Africans who happen to be in America. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from Africa. We didn’t land on Plymouth Rock — that rock landed on us.” “I am not interested in being an American, because America has never been interested in me.” His fiery stance helped The Nation swell in numbers, but not all was well in the organization. Very soon numerous rifts between Elijah Muhammed and Malcolm began to show, causing him to denounce it. While the Nation went from placing sanctions and ex-communication on him to a death warrant, Malcolm X traveled throughout Europe and Africa, meeting world leaders and royalty. While visiting Mecca he converted to Sunni Islam, which embraced Muslims of “all colours, from blue-eyed blonds to black-skinned Africans, interacting as equals.” He returned to the States not only with a changed worldview, but a new name, this one Malik El-Shabazz. Although he chronically
Malcolm X feared for his life, he spoke at many college campuses, and now spoke out in favour of the non-violent Civil Rights Movement. He also agreed to release an “as told to” autobiography with the journalist Alex Haley, for a split of the $20,000 advance Doubleday was offering. After hundreds of midnight to dawn interviews, Haley had compiled and edited the work into a publishable form. But he had no sooner turned it over to Doubleday when news came that Malcolm X had been killed. He had been gunned down my multiple Nation of Islam assassins while he was giving a speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Washington. Unfortunately, Doubleday refused to publish it. Nelson Doubleday feared that he and his staff would be
next on The Nation’s hit list if they published it. Haley shopped it around, but found all major publishers had been gripped with the same fear. However, the publishers at Grove Press were no stranger to death threats, having previously published ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ the previous year. With a team of First Amendment Rights Lawyers, and a strong show of armed security guards, Grove Press released ‘The Autobiography of Malcolm X’ in October of 1965. Nobody was prepared for it. Part of the shock was Malcolm X had been dismissed by most major media outlets as a terrorist before and even after his murder. ‘Newsweek,’ ‘The Washington Post,’ and ‘The New York Times’ had all eulogized him as “a blazing
racist,” “a twisted man” “leader of the Negro lunatic fringe,” and bid good riddance to “the spokesman of bitter racism” and his “ruthless and fanatical belief in violence.” Now they had to eat their words. ‘The New York Times’ was the first who found the book to be “a brilliant, painful, important book,” lamenting the loss of this “most able, articulate and compelling spokesman.” Malcolm X’s conversion from street criminal to international human rights activists resonated with people of all races, immediately selling 3 million copies in over a dozen languages. Since then it has been reprinted over 45 times, and continues to be a worldwide best-seller. ‘Time’ magazine listed it as one of the top 10 non-fiction books of the 20th century. Few people are not affected by Malcolm X’s conversion from militant hate to hope, and from separatist violence to inclusive peace. Even a teenage Barack Obama “found something in the narrative of a man who was also of mixed race, had lost his father, and needed to create a self.” The New Yorker re-reviewed this year (celebrating 50 years since his untimely death) and found it, even after all these years, to be “profoundly comforting.” Mike Selby is Reference Librarian at the Cranbrook Public Library

Ongoing contest of the genders “My husband should be a warning to all women planning matrimony.” Felicity Verity “It’s disgusting!” exclaimed George. “Women running around sweaty and half naked.” He was endeavouring to wind up his wife, Fliss. “And there’s no way they can play soccer like men; they’re built all wrong.” Felicity said nothing; she is used to her husband’s harangues but I did notice her fingers getting whiter around the handle of the skillet and wondered if George realized how close he was getting into real danger. We’d been watching some of the Women’s World Cup games and I, personally, had been enjoying the contest. “How come they call it football? It’s nothing like football,” exclaimed George. “Probably because they actually kick the ball with their feet, Georgie.” That was Fliss controlling her temper; she’d put down the skillet and, for the nonce, her husband was safe. George was putting on one of his male chauvinist pig performances, probably because he reckoned I was there to protect him, but those women had played some marvellous games. I’d been impressed by their skills, their strength, their aggressiveness and their incredible speed. “They’ll never be as good as the men,” added George, but I butted in. I said,
“They’ll never be as good as the very best male players but they’re already better than ninety per cent of male footballers.” I was sticking my neck out there. “One thing, they’re not as big nor as strong as the best men players.” “Some of them are bigger than me.” cracked George “Bigger brains.” Fliss from the kitchen. I laughed, but I had been amazed at the prowess of those young ladies from all over the world. “They should’ve been Peter home looking after their ventured Warland menfolk,” George, then, “When’re we eating tonight?” Felicity picked up the heavy skillet again and I didn’t think she intended to cook in it. “Couple more games and then, thank heavens to Betsy, it’ll be all over. CFL will be up and running soon.” George still trying to dominate; I don’t know why he thinks he can win. “First, there are the Pan Am games and we’ll see some great performances — from women. Real athletes. Women diving, kayaking and even playing rugby. That’ll be great, eh, Georgie? Women playing a nasty rough man’s sport, rugby.” This was Felicity getting into her stride. “Big tackles and no body armour and no new guys every thirty seconds. They probably won’t kick the ball much, just carry it. It’ll be like watching a sale at Ikea.” She skipped lightly back in to the kitchen. “Prolly purses at ten paces.” George slid

into the living room and I sidled in after him. It sounded as if Fliss might be throwing things in the kitchen but she turned out a great meal as it always was when the lady put her mind to it. “Women should be kept barefoot and pregnant,” muttered George over his steak pie. “You tried that with me, Georgie, then you were supposed to support me and the kids but I had to get jobs to support us.” George side-stepped that one. “And they gonna wear make-up too, these female rugby players?” he asked. “That American goalie was wearing make-up a mile thick. Looked like a raccoon. And the stupid hair-styles!” “Careful, George!” I said between mouthfuls. “You seen any men’s soccer? It’s about the only sport where they don’t wear helmets, so some of the guys go wild.” But I can be a male chauvinist pig too. I find quite a number of female athletes a pleasure to watch. In some of them I can still see my lovely wife racing down the field with her hockey stick in action like some female berserker and my young daughter frightening the life out of me racing downhill on her skis. Felicity arrived with the desserts and George patted her hand and passed one to me. Felicity grinned and said, “Women are good at co-operating. Men are hopeless. In fact, men are useless. If you decide to have one around the house, he’ll never remember where he should stay.”

Kimberley author launches new children’s book What’s Up? Mike Redfern
Kimberley artist, illustrator and writer Susan Dancer will launch her second self-published children’s book August 1, when she will have both hard and soft cover copies of her beautiful little Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest available for purchase and signing at the Kimberley Public Library from 12 noon to 4 p.m. It is purely coincidental that this story about observing a forest fire from a forestry lookout tower should be released on one of the hottest fire seasons in BC provincial history. Dancer started work on the concept 14 years ago with a series of watercolour illustrations. Writing the lookout journal first as a poem, she showed it to BC author Luanne Armstrong at a workshop. Commented Armstrong, “Why is it a poem? Why not make it a story?” She also suggested that it needed more paintings. Dancer spent the next couple of years completing more paintings and rewrote the poem as a prose story off and
on over the 10 years since then. She finally pulled it all together after receiving a grant from the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance in 2014 with a deadline for completion by May 2015. She published it under her own Blue Publishing label and the hard cover, 32 page, fully illustrated book was printed in April. A soft cover edition will be available by the book launch. Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest is set at the fire lookout in Carbondale, Alberta, between Pincher Creek and the Crow’s Nest Pass. Dancer and her two children spent many summers atop the lookout tower there with her husband David who has worked as a fire lookout for the Alberta Forest Service for 17 years. Fire service work is in Susan’s blood. She grew up in Lesser Slave Lake where her father used to fill tankers with fire retardant and where she spent 3 seasons working alone in the bush and a period working as radio operator at the Forest Service headquarters. She has the experi-
ence that lends itself to the story and the paintings. Some of the illustrations relate directly to that experience. The helicopter in one illustration is the same colour as one of her friend’s ‘copters and the airtanker in another illustration is the same number 13 as the tanker flown by another friend. But most of the illustrations reference the actual fire lookout tower on which she and her family spent so many summers. The story builds to an exciting climax as the firefighters battle the fire before coming to a quiet and hopeful conclusion. The illustrations are in delicate watercolour, full of small details mentioned in the text. It is a book for parents to share with their children and they will probably have to explain the meaning of some of the words. But the pictures tell the story without need for words so a pre-reading child can enjoy it on their own, too. This is Dancer’s second published book. The first, The Raven’s Letter, was a book
without words, the paintings for which once formed an exhibit in the Gallery at Centre 64. In this book the pictures told the story and made the ‘reader’ slow down to look carefully at what was happening in each illustration. It was used in an ESL class and another class wrote stories to go along with the pictures. It is worth going slowly through Fire in the Forest, too, so that all the little details can be enjoyed. Nelson & District Arts Council and the Elephant Mountain Literary Festival selected Lookout Journal: Fire in the Forest to share the 3rd annual Carver Award, a cash award made to new writers in the Kootenay/Boundary region. The award is in memory of the late Richard Carver, lover of the arts and the Kootenays and a driving force in the Nelson & District Arts Council. The book was nominated by Kimberley Public Library director, Karin von Wittgenstein, who looks forward to welcoming you to Susan Dancer’s book launch and signing August 1.
Voice of Experience
The evolving English language Betsy Brierley
My two-year-old grandson does not use contractions. His mother will ask, “Lachlan, do you want a fish stick?” He will answer, “No, I do not.” It’s a bit Yoda-ish, but maybe he is ahead of the rest of us, because apparently the apostrophe is in jeopardy. Mary Norris, a copy editor for the New Yorker magazine, says: “The apostrophe is under a lot of stress, largely because in texting you have to switch screens to insert it, and who has time for that?” The English language is flexible, one reason it is today among the three most widely spoken in the world. How much more flexible can it get? A lot more, it appears. Already there is “wer r u?” and “thx” and “lol,” which I thought meant “lots of love,” but no, it does not. Will we soon be writing contractions as dont and cant and wouldnt? Spelling correctly may be in jeopardy. As we all know, English spelling is full of rules and inconsistencies. But, wait, now there is the autocorrect feature for your computer device. (Ms. Norris abhors autocorrect, although she admits she is free to disable it.) I suggest there is a certain entertainment value. In one of my recent emails “Nanoose” (the bay) became “nanosecond”. My son-in-law, texting his mother about taking a certain photo, wrote, “I can’t get a good shot shooting into the light.” You can guess how the autocorrect feature improved on that, and the “correction” slipped through. Step #1: Call Karrie and get your access code number. 250-426-5201 extension 208
Using the words “text” as a verb and “autocorrect” as a noun are examples of another transition happening within the English language. Nouns become verbs and verbs become nouns with alacrity, it seems. Annoying new words accost us: a panelist on a CBC news program uses “incentivize” when discussing how to motivate people to exercise more. “Problematize” is a verb used in academic circles. (I am not making this up. We may all now problematize the issue of people who text.) A friend who also gets huffy when encountering grammar gaffs told me she almost drove through a red light while noting the improper use of an apostrophe in a very large soap ad. It was “insensibly possessive,” she said. “I was hoping that some marketing firm was getting royal you-know-what from an irate VP out in Mississauga. But I bet not. I bet about 14 people noticed... and like me they fumed and didn’t know what to do about it.” Who really cares? Is not learning spelling and grammar rules akin to not learning math processes because the calculator will do it for you? In this age do we need to know the reasoning behind multiplying and spelling or simply how to apply them for what needs to be accomplished? Cursive writing is taught only at the teacher’s discretion in schools today. Is it necessary to know how to write with a cursive hand when daily lists and notes can be made on a phone and a cheque
can be deposited with an online photo? Isn’t efficiency the point? In spite of the English language being cluttered, ambiguous, irrational, irksome, as well as hard to spell, I will always be one of the 14 who notice and object when it is abused. It may just be esthetics; if you are used to seeing something a certain way for decades, adjustments can be troubling. Perhaps objecting merely problematizes the issue. It has taken centuries for English to develop to this point, through the merging of old languages, influences of the church, the Industrial Revolution, science, other cultures, emerging issues, computer technology, not to mention linguistic elements such as consonant and vowel shifts, and inevitable errors and omissions along the way. Words and punctuation become accepted because people use them. What goes into the Oxford English Dictionary with its 20 volumes or into a 600-page slang dictionary depends on us. Surely, there will be a texting shorthand dictionary out there somewhere. We have always been the enablers of change to the language, and change it will. I myself have begun to say “No, I do not” to express with the authority of a two-year-old that I don’t enjoy fish sticks. Betsy Brierley lives beside Kootenay Lake.

Kimberley’s du Toit Wins BC Amateur For the Townsman
For four days, Jared du Toit proudly sported his 2013 Champion bag that he earned for winning the 2013 BC Junior Boys title in a playoff over Jordan Lu and Kevin Vigna. Now he can put that into storage because he has a 2015 Champion bag which signifies his win at the 113th BC Amateur at Fairview Mountain. Du Toit played a solid final round, never letting his closest competitor, Stuart Macdonald of Point Grey, get any closer than four strokes. Du Toit finished at (-10) 278 after his final round (+1) 73 to win by seven strokes over Point Grey’s Stuart Macdonald. “It’s pretty awesome,” said du Toit after accepting the Bostock Trophy as the 113th BC Amateur champion. “I remember when I was 13, caddying for a friend at the BC Am and I saw the guys in the final group. I hoped and thought that would be me some day and that day was today.” And don’t think the champion bag isn’t a big thing to du Toit. “I’ve been proud to show off this bag as a champion in 2013 and now I have one for this year,” said du Toit. Macdonald, the midway leader at Fairview Mountain, couldn’t break par on the last two days, ballooning to a final round (+4) 76, which was still good
enough for a (-3) total of 285 and solo second place. “Hats off to Jared, he deserves this win so much,” said Macdonald. “He played so well, especially when the conditions got windy and tough. I didn’t lose this tournament, he won this and I congratulate him on his win.” Macdonald got to within striking distance of du Toit on the front nine, but the killing blow came on the 8th hole when du Toit made birdie while Macdonald made bogey after hitting his drive right. That extended du Toit’s lead to six and he coasted in the rest of the way. “It was good to have a big lead going into the round and once I extended it, it was just about getting in and finishing,” said du Toit. Du Toit was a front-runner from the very start, as his first three rounds of 68, 68 and 69 had him no worse than second at any point in the tournament. By limiting the number of mistakes he made - only one double bogey, along with just 11 bogeys to go with 19 birdies and back-to-back eagles (made during his opening round) - du Toit was the steadiest player in Oliver. While other players made big numbers all over Fairview Mountain, du Toit kept to a conservative game plan of trying to make easy pars on
the par-3s and par-4s and trying to make birdie on all the par-5s. He was (-8) on the par-5s, which included his only double bogey on the 5th hole in his opening round. But du Toit really put the tournament away during the final 5 holes during Round 3. Trailing Macdonald by two strokes, du Toit made birdies on all but the treacherous par-4 16th and held a commanding four-stroke cushion which he would nurse through his final round. Perhaps the moment Macdonald knew du Toit had moved ahead for good was on the final hole during the third round, when Macdonald hit his second shot long into the back bunker, found it plugged and had to play away from the hole, saving bogey. But du Toit hit his approach to 15 feet under the hole and calmly stroked his birdie putt into the centre of the cup to give himself double the lead going into Round 4. While the sun came out on Friday for the final round, the wind kicked up, pushing scores up to the point where only two players finished under-par for the day. The most important sub-par round came from the University of Washington’s Kevin Kwon, who shot a (-2) round of 70 to move from outside the top 10 to third spot and the

Kimberley’s Jared du Toit is 2015 BC Amateur Champion. final Willingdon Cup spot. “It’s always a big deal to be able to wear the British Columbia colours,” said Kwon. “I’m always proud to represent BC.” As for his round, Kwon came out strong, with birdies on four of his first five holes. He would make pars the rest of the way, save for bogeys at 6 and 18. “It was so windy out there that I knew if I could make pars after my start, I would move up the leaderboard fast,” said Kwon. “It turned out to be a good tournament for me.” The best final round was produced by Royal Colwood’s Keaton Gudz, who made bogey on his opening hole, and then proceeded to birdie six holes to finish at (-5) 67 for the day and (+2) 290 for the tournament. “I wish I had played better yesterday,” said Gudz of his third-round 77. “I think the difference today was I hit my irons close and made
some putts. I had a lot of confidence standing over my putts today and I made a score that I am pretty happy with.” Gudz also credited his Royal Colwood colleague Kevin Carrigan for taking him under his wing. “Kevin is a huge role model for me,” said Gudz. “I’m learning so much playing with him.” Defending champion Jordan Lu had another steady round, finishing at even par 72 for the day and (+1) 289 for the tournament. “I grinded so hard today,” said Lu. “I didn’t make enough putts and with the wind blowing like it was, I wasn’t as aggressive as I needed to be. I thought the scores would be a lot higher. What Jared did, to make the scores that he did, that’s really good on this course, in this weather.” The Bostock Trophy, donated by Senator Hewitt Bostock in 1895, is the prize given to the winner of BC’s longest running and most pres-
tigious amateur golf tournament. The trophy remains the property of the Victoria Golf Club and is on loan to the British Columbia Golf Association for the presentation each year to the winner. Past winners have included Doug Roxburgh, who has won 13 times, James Lepp, who won four consecutive titles, and last year’s champion, Jordan Lu. British Columbia will be represented by 42 golfers at the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship, with the top 25 and ties from the BC Amateur earning spots at the Weston Golf and Country Club and Lambton Golf and Country Club in Toronto, beginning Aug. 10.

Amateur Paul Dunne has a share of the lead going into the fourth round
History in the making at home of golf in Scotland ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Jordan Spieth was one shot out of the lead and one round away from the third leg of the Grand Slam. Not since Bobby Jones has an amateur won the British Open, and then along came Paul Dunne
with a bogey-free performance Sunday at St. Andrews that gave him a share of the lead. When a shootout at St. Andrews ended Sunday, 14 players were separated by three shots. Half of them were major champions. Even for a place packed with centuries of
history, this British Open offered endless possibilities. Canada’s Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask., had his best round so far at the British Open. He had five birdies to finish at 4-under 68. He’ll enter the fourth round tied for 45th at 4-under.

“Family is incredibly important to me,” Weir said in the statement. “I love the game and will return when the time is right.” Weir was expected to be one of more than a dozen Canadian players in the field for the Canadian Open, which is set to begin Thursday at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ont.

Former Masters champion Mike Weir won’t play in his 25th RBC Canadian Open and is taking an “indefinite leave of absence” from pro golf for personal reasons. Weir said in a statement posted on Twitter and that he is taking time off to focus on his personal life and children. He and wife Bricia divorced earlier this year. They have two teenaged daughters. “Mike has recently endured some difficult times in his personal life,” agent Danny Fritz wrote in an email to The Canadian Press. “With everything that has been going on away from the golf course, Mike’s golf game has been impacted as a result.” Weir withdrew from his last PGA Tour event, the John Deere Classic, earlier this month after shooting a first-round 73.

The two will share second place. “We are incredibly grateful that no one was seriously injured today,” the league said in a statement. “Mick’s composure and quick acting in the face of a terrifying situation was nothing short of heroic.” Commentator Ross Williams said there are occasionally shark sightings in and around events but an actual attack was very unusual. “For it to happen in that fashion during the finals, where it actually showed that crazy aggression toward Mick Fanning, such a crazy thing,” he said on the video.

JOHANNESBURG - Knocked off his board by an attacking shark, a surfer punched the creature before escaping unharmed during the televised finals of a world surfing competition in South Africa on Sunday. Three-time world champion Australian surfer Mick Fanning was struck by the shark from behind and knocked into the water as he sat on his board waiting his turn during the JBay Open in Jeffrey’s Bay in the Eastern Cape Province. As he scans the water, two fins appear and with a splash he disappears under the surface. He is next seen furiously trying to swim to safety before a rescuer pulls him out of the water. “A big sigh of relief seeing Fanning in one piece,” a commentator is heard saying, on the video of the event posted on the
World Surf League website. “I felt something grab, get stuck in my leg rope and instantly jump away. And it just kept coming at my board,” Fanning said, once safe on the rescue boat. Fanning said at first he swam away but then decided to defend himself and turned to punch the shark in the back. “I saw it taking my board away and I just started cracking it,” he told a crowd that gathered around him once he was back on shore, referring to how he struck the shark. “I’m totally fine. I’ve got nothing wrong with me,” Fanning said in an interview. “There’s a small depression in my board and my leg wrap (was) bitten. I’m just totally tripping out. To walk away from that, I’m just so stoked. Oh man.” The World Surf League cancelled the remainder of the

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll feel as if you can handle whatever heads your way. You could be feeling this way all day long, so make the most of it. You likely will be greeted by the unexpected. You will see many fast changes when you go in a new direction. Tonight: Take time to chat with a pal. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your creativity encourages you to head down a new path. This new vision is the result of being able to detach. In the next few months, you will see a change in your romantic life. As a result, you will be much happier. Tonight: Add more spice to your life. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will appreciate some downtime, even if those around you don’t encourage that kind of behavior. You will open up and be more creative once you get some much-needed personal time. Use caution with money matters. Tonight: Let the party go on and on.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. How you handle a certain situation could be much more effective if you detach, ask questions and are willing to re-evaluate your perspective about a key person in your life. Tonight: Catch up with a neighbor who has news to share. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Use caution with your finances, and you will avoid trouble. Your sense of humor comes into play when dealing with someone unpredictable who is full of light and energy. Understand what is happening behind the scenes, and move forward. Tonight: Balance your checkbook. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Relate directly to someone you care about. This person will be delighted to have your time and attention. In general, reactions today will shock you and send you into another dimension. Maintain a sense of humor. Don’t overthink a situation. Tonight: As you like it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Know when you need to step
Tundra
back and say little. Close associates seem unpredictable. You might take someone’s comments personally and not as they were intended. Keep smiling, and know what results you desire. Life might take an interesting turn. Tonight: Make it a quiet night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your ability to understand where a friend is coming from should be treasured by that individual. Don’t push someone too hard right now. You’ll have an opinion about what needs to happen, but so will he or she, and you might not concur. Tonight: All smiles. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have the capability to turn a situation around if you so choose. Nevertheless, you can’t seem to stay focused on one issue at the moment. Try to be more direct and upbeat in various areas of your life. Let go of what is difficult for now. Tonight: A must appearance. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll push hard to achieve certain benefits, especially in
business and financial matters. Remember that emotional security also is a high priority. Listen to what is happening with a friend or associate who might be far away. Tonight: A new vision becomes possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) A partner, friend or loved one seems to want to push you in the direction that he or she would like you to head in. If you don’t want to head down that path, speak up -- there are different paths follow. Expect a certain amount of flak. Tonight: Be a duo. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel out of sorts as you head in a new direction. What you think you want and what you actually receive could be two different things. You need to lie low, even if someone is being fussy. What happens here could be crucial to your well-being. Tonight: Say “yes.” BORN TODAY Guitarist Carlos Santana (1947), mountaineer Sir Edmund Hillary (1919), actress Sandra Oh (1971)

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I are lucky to live near the friendliest, most helpful neighbors we could ask for. They are a middle-aged European couple who moved to the States two years ago. Here’s the problem. They have a swimming pool in their backyard, and when they use it, they do not wear swimsuits. I assume they are just doing what is normal in their native country. When I am outside, I simply try to look the other way and ignore them. However, when they see me or my wife, they almost always call out to say hello and start a conversation. My wife is not bothered by it, and will go over and talk with them. However, I’m not so comfortable. Generally, I wave and go back into the house until they are out of the pool. My wife says I am overreacting, but I don’t think I should be uncomfortable in my own yard. She does not want to put up a fence, as she thinks it would be unsightly and unwelcoming. Can you help? -- Neighbors of Lord and Lady Godiva Dear Neighbors: You cannot stop the folks next door from sunbathing nude unless there are restrictions in your town. You also should not be reluctant to use your own yard when the neighbors are out. The solution truly is a fence or perhaps shrubbery that would allow each of you to have more privacy. There is nothing unwelcoming or unsightly about nice bushes, plants or flowers. Unless, of course, your wife likes to look more than she is willing to admit. Dear Annie: Why do some people insist on arriving late for family dinners? My husband and I are greatgrandparents with the only home large enough to host the entire family. We wake up early enough to set up and cook, and I set the time that seems most convenient for our family members. When there is a football game in the evening, I set the dinner for noon. When there is early morning rain, I set the time for late afternoon. When asked if we can set a specific hour, I always agree. On Memorial Day, I told everyone to be here at 1 p.m. Ten people were here waiting, and the last two came in 45 minutes later. We didn’t sit down to eat until after 2. This is awkward for everyone, but especially for young children who are hungry, seniors who haven’t eaten since early morning, and one family member who is diabetic and needs to time her insulin. Why is it no longer polite to be punctual? -- Late Arrivals Dear Late: It is still polite to be punctual, but some folks are simply inconsiderate. If there is only one couple that does this regularly, feel free to tell them that the festivities start an hour earlier than you tell everyone else. Otherwise, here’s how it works for chronically late family members: Set the time, and when that time arrives, sit down and start eating. Those who show up late can be told to find leftovers in the kitchen or join you for dessert. They will either accommodate themselves or make a greater effort to show up on time at the next family event. Either way, the rest of you should not be held hostage waiting for them.

Jennifer was predeceased by her beloved father Sheridan Worley, and her brother Cam Worley. Jennifer was a cherished friend to many. She kept us laughing with her quick wit and hilarious impersonations. Jennifer grew up in Cranbrook, B.C., before heading off to Lethbridge Community College. She graduated from Journalism and started her career at the Lethbridge Herald. Always adventurous, she moved to Calgary, working at the Calgary Sun and then the Calgary Herald. She went back to school at the age of 39 and received her Bachelor of Design from ACAD. She spent the last decade of her life working at the Calgary Herald where she used her skills as both a journalist and designer to bring readers some of the paper’s most popular pages. Jennifer was also a beautiful skier who could make a black diamond run look like the bunny hill. And she loved to travel, exploring Europe, the Far East, Canada`s west coast, Mexico and the U.S. She also loved to shop, making it almost a profession in itself. And anyone who’s been in her backyard knows she had a green thumb. Jennifer also had a passion for reading, knitting, art and music. She loved to hike and bike, and was a focused and dedicated long distance runner completing every marathon she started, including Boston. Jennifer was strong, tough and brave. When she was diagnosed with cancer, it was another marathon for her. She was focused on what she had to do and settled in for the course. She was an inspiration and she never gave up. We lost Jennifer far too soon. It was not a race that she could win, despite her relentless determination to fight it, every second of every day for the past 20 months. A celebration of Jennifer’s life will be held on Sunday, September 13, 2015 with friends walking together in the annual Ovarian Cancer Walk of Hope, followed by a tribute, Worley-style. If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to: Ovarian Cancer Canada, 105B 1409 Edmonton Trail N.E. Calgary, AB T2E 3K8 www.ovariancanada.org Telephone 1-866-591-6622.

Lillian (Rusty) Fabbro 1931 - 2015 It is with broken hearts we announce the passing of our precious Mom, Lillian (Rusty) Fabbro, on July 13, 2015 at the F.W. Green Home. Mom worked hard raising her four kids and always made sure we had what we needed. She spent endless hours sewing clothes for us as well as staying up all night Christmas Eve to finish outfits for the girls’ Barbie Dolls and put together Ron’s bikes. We also had the best birthday parties in the neighbourhood with the most imaginative cakes. Mom was also involved in the Cranbrook Girls Bugle Band as a chaperone for a number of years and always looked forward to the summer trips. She worked at Discount Foods and would always talk about the good times she had with Dean, the Manager. Mom was born in the old Cranbrook Hospital and lived her entire life here except for a short move to Nelson to attend Business College. She married her forever dance partner, Jim, on June 3, 1950 and they were married at the St. Eugene Mission. They were the life of the party at the Bluebird Hall and won many dance contests throughout the years. Mom was predeceased by her husband of almost 50 years Jim Fabbro, her Mom and Dad, Sam and Grace Ratcliffe, her sister Betty, and her faithful companion and dining partner Keeko (her dog). She is survived by her brother Terry (Ruth) Ratcliffe, kids Ron (Shirly) Fabbro, Carol Reed, Linda (Dave) Birch and Bonnie Nielsen. She also adored and would keep her cupboard stocked with goodies for her grandchildren Chris Fabbro and Melissa (Mat) Box, Cory Reed, Chad (Jessica) Birch, Chelsea and Krista Birch, Tyler Nielsen and her two nieces Debbie and Charlene. She also has 3 great grandchildren which she would ask about all the time – Marshall and Mackenzie Reed and Camden Box. We are honoring Mom’s wish of no service and will hold a private family burial at Fort Steele cemetery in August. We can’t thank the staff at the Green Home enough for the care, attention, compassion and simple kindness they showed Mom on a daily basis the entire time she was with them. You are truly a special group of people and we thank you so much for making her transition to care easier. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Mom’s honor to the Cranbrook Girls Bugle Band.

Newport Folk Festival marks 50th anniversary of Dylan going electric Michelle R. Smith Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - On the night of July 25, 1965, Bob Dylan strode onto a stage at the Newport Folk Festival, plugged in an electric guitar and gave the music world a shock. Wearing a black leather jacket, the darling of the folk movement and singer of protest songs launched into a searing, distortion-filled, threesong electric set that brought boos from folk purists but thrilled others. Fifty years later, it’s considered one of the most important events in rock history, the high-voltage moment when Dylan broke away from folk and helped show fellow musicians the poetic possibilities of rock. The Fender Stratocaster that Dylan played that night sold for nearly $1 million, the highest price ever paid for a guitar at auction. A new book out this month, “Dylan Goes Electric! Newport, Seeger, Dylan, and the Night that Split the Sixties,” by Elijah Wald, takes a deep look at the event. And the three-day festival, which starts Friday, is marking the anniversary with a closing-night tribute to be performed by a still-secret lineup of artists. Musicians today still take inspiration from Dylan’s performance and talk about what it means. “It’s the true American spirit to rebel against the establishment,” says Joey Burns of the indie rock band Calexico, which is performing at the festival on Friday. He calls it a “moment of turning things upside down and questioning and rebelling and being true to oneself. Dylan being true to oneself as an artist. And also reinventing oneself.” Peter Yarrow of the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary, who introduced Dylan that night, agrees Dylan was a poet pursuing his artistic vision. But he says Dylan’s going electric had a different meaning back then for those in the folk world, which was deeply concerned with social causes such as civil rights. Until then, they thought Dylan, who wrote “Blowin’ in the Wind,” and “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” was, too. “The audience cared so much about his music and its meaning in the world of that time,” Yarrow says. “To them it was a breach of faith.” Listeners wondered whether Dylan had become a sellout, he says, someone who had decided to “go commercial and let the suits determine what you’re

Electric dreams … Bob Dylan plays a Fender Stratocaster for the first time onstage at the Newport folk festival on 25 July 1965. going to sound like.” Dylan’s performance was not the first time someone had played an electric guitar at the festival. And many in the audience had already heard one of the electric songs he played that night, “Like a Rolling Stone,” which had been released the previous week and was on the radio. But this was a poke in the eye from Dylan, who had played twice before at Newport, in 1963 and 1964. Yarrow says Dylan was insulted by his position in the lineup: in the middle of the evening, rather than at the end, like a traditional headliner. Before his set, Dylan told Yarrow he planned to play three songs and would not sing acoustic. Yarrow suggested he begin with a couple of acoustic songs, then tell the crowd he had something new he was working on that he wanted to share. Dylan ignored him. Yarrow recalls he did a scrupulous sound check before Dylan played. But as Wald points out, rock ‘n’ roll at an outdoor festival was a novel concept at the time. Dylan took the stage and launched into a howling version of “Maggie’s Farm.” Guitarist Mike Bloomfield turned his instrument up as loud as it could go. The now-familiar sound of distortion was new back then. “The sheer volume, no one had ever heard anything that
loud,” Wald says. “A lot of people just thought it sounded horrible. The band was overwhelming Dylan. The people who loved it were as shocked by it as the people who hated it.” In addition, the band was under-rehearsed. Some members had learned the songs just a few hours before, Wald says. They followed with “Like a Rolling Stone” and a third song that they struggled through. Legend has it that festival organizer and folk music elder statesman Pete Seeger threatened to take an axe to the power cord, though Wald says those stories probably stem from Yarrow telling the crowd Dylan was going to get his “axe,” slang for guitar. While some who booed were upset over Dylan’s embrace of rock or the lousy sound, others did so because Dylan’s set was so short and they wanted to hear more. In any case, Yarrow took the stage again and coaxed Dylan back up for two more songs, both acoustic - “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” and “Mr. Tambourine Man” - before he left for good. Yarrow says Dylan knew the response was “horrific.” “He was aghast by the response and said to me, and this is a quote, ‘What have you done to me?”’ Yarrow recalls. Dylan’s publicist did not return an email seeking com-
ment for this story. But in the 2005 Martin Scorsese documentary “No Direction Home,” Dylan said that at the time, he didn’t know why people booed, but that he didn’t think it had to do with the songs themselves. He said that later he heard Seeger was upset. “It didn’t make sense to me, Pete Seeger, someone whose music I cherish, someone who I highly respect, is going to cut the cable” Dylan said. “It was like a dagger. ... Just the thought of it, you know, made me go out and get drunk.” Boos continued in the months that followed, with one fan even shouting “Judas!” at a show in England. Dylan returned to play at the festival only once, in 2002. Festival organizers say there is a standing invitation for him to play whenever he wants, but he will not be coming this year. These days, the story is often told as a generational split, a case of a 24-year-old Dylan rebelling against straight-laced older folks, but Yarrow and Wald say there was more to it than that. At this year’s festival, “if Katy Perry was invited, a lot of people would go, ‘Oh, my god, no.’ That’s the same split that was going on then,” Wald says. “It wasn’t that people hated electric guitars. It’s that they hated stupid pop music.”

Brett Kissel brings ‘Airwaves’ tour to Cranbrook For the Townsman
Brett Kissel, a 25 year old singer/songwriter has been the country music story in Canada for the past few years, recently winning two awards from the Canadian Country Music Association for “CMT Video of the Year” and “Interactive Artist of the Year”, after recording eight nominations. Brett also took home a Canadian Radio Music Award for Country Breakthrough Artist of the Year, on top of two Association of Country Music Alberta Awards, and two Edmonton Music Awards. With countless sold out shows across North America, Kissel was primed for his major label debut album through Warner Music Canada, “Started With A Song.” Even before the album’s release, Kissel had already made radio history, with more than 93 per cent of Canadian Country stations adding the first single, “Started With a Song”. This track eclipsed the record for most adds at Canadian Country radio in one week, a record previous-
ly held by none other than Taylor Swift. Since the album’s release Brett has become the talk of the Canadian country music scene. Kootenay Concert Connection’s President and GM, F.J. Hurtak said, “I saw Brett perform live for the first time at the CCMA’S in Edmonton last year and he literally stole the show based on audience response. I was so impressed that my business partner Gene Daniel from Nanaimo, and I, started talks with Brett’s agent immediately to put together a tour for B.C. in 2015. It has taken some time because he is very much in demand, but we are pleased to say that Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre will be one of the stops on the “Airwaves” tour this November.” Brett has seen two of his music videos reach No. 1 status at CMT, and he has scored three top ten radio hits, and won his first Juno Award becoming the very first country artist to be awarded with “Breakthrough Artist of the Year” in 17 years. In June of 2015, Brett won
the coveted SOCAN award for his hit “3-2-1”. His current single “Airwaves” was the most downloaded song on DMDS the week it was released to Country radio across the country. The track is now available on ITunes as well. Brett’s forthcoming album “Airwaves” (Warner Music Canada) will be released in September, and fans can certainly watch for Brett at the 2015 CCMA Awards in Halifax, where he is bound to be a front runner nominee. Tickets for Brett Kissel’s “Airwaves” Tour at the Key City Theatre on Tuesday, No. 17, went on sale Friday July 17th at the Key City Theatre box office. Tickets can also be obtained by phone at 250-426-7006 or online at www.keycitytheatre.com All seats are reserved and priced at $42.50 inc. gst(sc extra) The “Airwaves” Tour with Bret Kissel is presented by the Kootenay Concert Connection in association with B 104 and the Cranbrook Daily Townsman.

New penalties eyed for careless fire starts Tom Fletcher Black Press
The B.C. government is reviewing its penalties for those who start forest fires with campfires or discarded cigarette butts, as losses pile up from a severe early fire season. Prince George-Mackenzie MLA Mike Morris has been assigned to the review, as the province’s forest fire crews continue to work flat-out to keep up with lightning-caused fires and those caused by human carelessness. Morris said he will examine what new penalties can be effectively enforced. “For example, should we be banning those who break fire bans from attending our provincial parks?” Morris said. “Should we look at larger fines up to and including possibly of the impoundment of vehicles for those who flick lit cigarette butts out of their windows?” One tree faller has been killed as the B.C. Wildfire Service continues to work against 175 active wildfires, down from 200 since the start of the week due to cooler weather and showers. The service has tackled more than 1,000 forest fires so far this year,
about a third of them human caused. “There are some who have suggested you can’t legislate against stupidity,” Forests Minister Steve Thomson said. “But if exploring the idea of increasing fines or acting on ideas that mean more people will get the message, I think we should be prepared to have a look at it.” Witnesses can report careless smokers or breaches of the province-wide outdoor fire ban with the same phone numbers as to report wildfires, 1-800-663-5555 or *5555 on a mobile phone. Of the 14 new fires Monday, two are suspected to have been human-caused. About 375 of this season’s fires are listed as human-caused, burning 44,000 hectares. Most new forest fire starts this week have been from lightning storms in the Kootenay region, but most were accompanied by rain and no large new fires have been added. States of local emergency continue in the Cariboo, Squamish-Lillooet and Alberni-Clayoquot Regional Districts as of Tuesday.
