Alexa Middelaer crash victim

The lawyer for a Delta woman charged with impaired driving in the death of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer is fighting to exclude some police testimony from the trial. David Tarnow is arguing police did not follow procedure on May 17, 2008, the day Carol Berner drove her Oldsmobile Intrigue into Alexa and her aunt as the pair fed a horse in Ladner.

Thursday, Const. Sarah Swallow told court she arrested Berner for impaired driving after Berner failed a roadside screening test at the crash scene. The device is set to display a fail reading when a person’s blood-alcohol level is 100mg/100ml or higher, Swallow said. During a medical exam at the hospital, Swallow said, she heard a doctor ask Berner if she had had anything to drink. Berner responded, “I’ve had a couple glasses of wine today,” Swallow said.

At the police station, Swallow said, she could smell alcohol on Berner’s breath. Tarnow is expected to cite Charter of Rights breaches in his arguments. Swallow testified on Day 4 of testimony in Surrey Provincial Court. The trial is scheduled for 16 days. After initially trying to avoid news cameras Monday, Berner faced reporters during a break from trial Tuesday. Berner emerged from the courthouse flanked by Tarnow and his co-counsel,

Jason Tarnow, after the senior lawyer extracted a promise that no questions would be asked of her directly. David Tarnow said it was important that his client be tried in a court of law, not “a court of public opinion.” He said Berner, whom he described as a “mother and grandmother,” was “extremely sorrowful,” but was not criminally responsible for what happened. A tearful Berner said nothing. see Witnesses page 3

Police investigators conduct a grid search of the area near the train tracks where a woman’s body was found on White Rock beach Tuesday.

Foul play ruled out in woman’s death Police have ruled out foul play in the death of a Lower Mainland woman whose body was discovered on White Rock beach Tuesday. “It’s no longer a suspicious death,” White Rock RCMP Sgt. Paul Fletcher said Thursday, noting the woman’s family has been notified and her name will not be released. The woman, aged 40 to 50 years, was found

around 8 a.m. Tuesday on the BNSF right-ofway in the 14300-block of Marine Drive. She was found at the high-tide line, fully clothed and with no obvious signs of trauma. Members of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team were called to assist at the scene – its third case on the Semiahmoo Peninsula in as many weeks. Police presence also included

forensic investigators and RCMP officers, and attracted significant media attention. Results of an autopsy conducted Wednesday were not available. Police have released no new information on the Peninsula’s two recent homicides, May 16 in Morgan Creek and May 22 in the Douglas area. - Tracy Holmes

The new owners of the Surrey Eagles wasted little time putting their own stamp on the team. On Tuesday – the group’s first day of ownership – Shane Kuss was fired as the team’s head coach, and replaced by assistant coach Matt Erhart. Chuck Westgard, who heads the new ownership group, said the decision came after a few weeks of reflection and Shane Kuss research. “We just want a new start,” said the South Surrey real estate developer, who purchased the team along with childhood friends Gary Nylund, an ex-NHL defenceman, and Scott Bradley, who works in the front office with the Boston Bruins. Erhart, 31, was head coach of the B.C. Major Midget League’s Greater Vancouver Canadians for two years, prior to spending a season with the Eagles. see Kuss page 27

path when the bridge opens in 2013, just a few months after an election, that decision won’t help the Liberals at the polls. The NDP, who have plenty of wind in their sails thanks to the enormous HST backlash, may gain a lot of extra votes simply by promising not to impose tolls when the new structure opens. They may decide to pay for it out of general revenue. Then there is the strong likelihood of a third party being a force in the 2013 election. If that party campaigns against tolls, it will put more pressure on the two main parties. The entire toll issue will likely become a political hot potato as completion of the bridge nears. The Liberals may wish to stand their ground on tolls, on the premise of fiscal responsibility and user pay, but their reputation for competence has taken a severe beating with the ham-handed way the HST was introduced and their almost non-existent defence of its virtues. Given the current anti-tax, anti-politician mood, the Port Mann Bridge tolls may well prove to be a defining political issue. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News.

news Bedside wedding in hospital

Last wish fulfilled Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

When the time came for Stephen Price and Patricia Hinschberger to exchange wedding vows, Hinschberger didn’t hesitate to ask for what she needed: Band-Aids. And just as Cary Grant did for his bride in the 1964 Oscar-winning movie, Father Goose, she placed one on the third finger of Price’s left hand and kissed it. “His eyes lit right up. He knew what I was doing,” Hinschberger said, noting there wasn’t a dry eye during that May 12 moment at Price’s bedside in Peace Society Terminal tries to patient Arch Hospital. salvage frustrated sea fest The memory is precious, but bittersweet. After 30 years together, Price died five days later, on May 17 – two months to the day April 7 PAN article after his diagnosis with terminal cancer. The South Surrey man was 54. Marrying Hinschberger had been his dying wish. And while Hinschberger has decades of memories of a vibrant, fun-loving Price who enjoyed camping and dancing, she is only just starting to find time to reflect. Due to finances, she had to wait nearly two weeks just to lay her husband to rest. “I haven’t had a time to grieve. It’s horrible,” Hinschberger said last week, days before Price’s cremation came together. Peace Arch News first reported Price’s story in April, after he said he was refused treatment for his peritoneal mesothelioma at Peace Arch Hospital. (A Fraser Health spokesperson disputed this). Price’s rare condition – linked to asbestos exposure – was causing his abdominal cavity to fill with fluid, and he had arrived Wednesday April 7, 2010 (Vol. 35 No. 28)

Confusion over treatment

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

The Spirit of the Sea Festival will go ahead this summer, but it may not be on the same scale the community has come to know it. That’s according to the head of the Community of Lights Event Society, which is stepping up to plan the August long-weekend celebration after the City of White Rock’s call for proposals for an organizer went unanswered last fall. Matt Todd, a former city councillor, said members of the society met last week to decide whether to continue involvement with the festival, after a city report that criticized orgaMatt Todd nization of last year’s event left past organizer volunteers “feeling wounded and totally demoralized.” Mayor Catherine Ferguson said Tuesday she is optimistic planning will move ahead, and a report will come before council at its April 12 meeting. “We are absolutely working to find solutions and ensure (the festival) happens for the community and for businesses,” Ferguson said. While there was a consensus among his society’s members to participate again this year, Todd said they have to catch up on two months of planning. “The challenges that we have right now is that it’s April, and we normally would’ve been in our full-swing planning a month or two ago.” At the very least, Todd said the see page A2

A South Surrey man diagnosed with terminal cancer two weeks ago says Peace Arch Hospital staff delivered “a kick in the teeth” by refusing to treat him Friday. But Fraser Health officials insist a lengthy wait for treatment was more likely the issue that saw Stephen Price redirected to Royal Columbian Hospital. “Nobody’s ever turned away,” Joan Marshall said Tuesday. “They would never refuse to do anything... but I know it has been a very busy time for the emergency department.” Price said he attended the emergency department April 2 to have his stomach drained of fluid build-up associated with his peritoneal mesothelioma. The 54-year-old said he has had the two- to six-hour procedure done at the local ❝Since hospital twice before – as recently as Feb. 26.

Price said he arrived at the emergency ward at 9:45 a.m. Friday, with his abdomen swollen six to eight inches with excess fluid. After waiting two hours, his doctor said staff told him Price would have to go elsewhere. He was told staff advised his doctor “they were understaffed and too busy and they couldn’t be bothered to treat me,” he said. “Since when does a hospital refuse somebody?” Price’s physician Dr. Milan Hainc said Tuesday – through his staff at Semiahmoo Medical Clinic – that Price was turned away because the procedure he needed is not available at Peace Arch Hospital. Marshall, however, told Peace Arch News that was “not at all” the case. As well, she is not aware of any staffing issues at the hospital that day. Price said he is not the only one outraged by what happened. According to the patient, administration at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster – where nine litres of see page A4

Rasmussen also testified he did not smell alcohol on Berner. Tuesday, he described hearing the crash while at a barbecue in the backyard of his friend, John Hembling. Hembling’s 35-year-old son, Dease, and his 33-year-old daughter-in-law, Rouvé, ran for the

street with Rasmussen. Rasmussen said he saw a red car had piled into a hydro pole after apparently hitting a silver car. The red car’s motor was still running, as were its windshield wipers, and Berner was still at the wheel. He reached inside and turned the motor off. Berner kept saying, “oh my God” over and over, Rasmussen said. When she got out of the car,

Berner seemed unsteady on her feet, but Rasmussen says he didn’t notice any smell of alcohol. Hembling, who has industrial first aid training, said Berner appeared “obviously disoriented (and) confused” but he also could smell no alcohol. He said he got Berner to take a seat on the curb. At one point, she asked him to get her cigarettes and cellphone from the car. Rasmussen had spotted Alexa’s injured aunt Daphne Johanson, who had suffered an obvious compound fracture. Then Rouvé discovered Alexa. The girl had landed against the base of a tree. She was covered in debris. Outside court, Alexa’s father, Michael Middelaer, described the eye witnesses as “heroes.” After each finished on the stand, Michael and wife Laurel – a principal at Southridge School – followed them out of the courtroom to thank them personally. “Most people’s first instinct was to help. At the end of the day you realize most people are really decent,” Michael said. - with files from Kristine Salzmann

Arson suspected in Ocean Park house fire Surrey RCMP are asking for public help identifying “persons of interest” in connection with a fire last weekend at an under-construction house in Ocean Park. Police believe the May 29 blaze at the unoccupied home, located near 128 Street and 26 Avenue, was intentionally set, and they want to speak with a group of youth who were seen in the vicinity at the time, said Const. Peter Neily. “They may either have information to offer – which is why we’d like to speak with them – or they could possibly be suspects,” Neily said Wednesday. Police were called to the area around

On Sale This Week

1 a.m. on Saturday, after a passerby reported seeing the front door of a house on fire, Neily said. The flames were quickly extinguished, and damage was limited to the front-door area. Investigators noted “obvious areas of accelerant” at the scene, Neily said. A group of approximately five youth – two females and three males – aged 14 to 16 years were seen in the area at the time, with one of the males described as wearing a white hoodie with a black, tribal print. The teens, or anyone with information on the incident, are asked to contact police at 604-599-0502. - Tracy Holmes

Bike safety is two-way street here’s a pall hanging over Bike Month this year. Anyone who’s ever spent any time on two wheels can’t help but feel a pang of trepidation heading out on their bikes after six cyclists were killed in one bloody, brutal eightday stretch in early May. Three were killed in Quebec May 14 when a motorist inexplicably managed to mow down a group of six sport cyclists with his pick-up truck. Another was left for dead in a ditch after the vehicle that hit him fled the scene. But perhaps more disturbing for those cyclists who ride to work every day through busy urban traffic, or enthusiasts who do 100-kilometre training rides in the country on the weekends, is the vitriolic commentary that accompanies the online news coverage of those tragedies. Motorists say the roads were built for them, cyclists impede the efficient flow of traffic and flout the rules of the road, and that bikes should be on sidewalks. Cyclists say roads must be shared, and motorists are often aggressive or just oblivious to them. Even after years of initiatives to promote safe cycling, like Bike to Work Week (running until June 6) and Bike Month, and the designation of special lanes and routes, there’s still a lot of ignorance and antagonism between motorists and cyclists. South Surrey’s Dr. Steve Larigakis – who helped promote the Bike to Work initiative on the Peninsula – hoped having a large number of cyclists visible on the road would not only make other people feel safer about joining on their own bikes, but also help motorists become accustomed to sharing the road. Sharing is a two-way street. And sharing the road requires a certain amount of empathy and respect from both parties, elements often sorely lacking on the mean streets. Motorists must respect that cyclists are entitled to a share of the road. In fact, most are also motorists, so their tax dollars have helped build and maintain the roads on which they’re riding. Conversely, cyclists must respect that with their right to share the road comes a responsibility to use it safely and legally. That means riding sensibly and predictably. It means following the same rules and protocols that govern the movement of heavier, and deadlier, cars and trucks. More respect and responsibility is the best way to reduce future tragedy on the roads.

You are handsome, witty, intelligent and immensely loved. I know this because I see you interact with your friends and ours. And I beam. It is time to give you the reins. It’s hard, because in doing that we say to you, and to the world “Here is Zac. Here’s the man we’ve nurtured and molded and helped to Become.” I want to scream “WAIT! There’s more! It can’t be over yet, I’m not ready for it to be over yet...” I’m scared I didn’t do you justice. That I wasn’t the parent you deserve. That I missed a life lesson I could have bestowed and didn’t. Suddenly, it feels too late. It slipped from adolescence to a period of jostling for control (that word again) to early adulthood. It’s paradoxical. To show confidence in you, I must have confidence in the job I’ve done. Because if you take control, Zachery Thomas, it will mean our work here is done, or at least the heavy lifting. There will, in time I suppose, be talks over barbecues and beers, where I nod sagely and impart patriarchal advice about cars, girls, interest rates and Jimmy Buffett. We’ll get to that. But the lesson, the epiphany, is this: It’s not over. It’s just different. It’s you now, Zacman. Your life, your reins. Be safe, have fun. We’re here if you need us.

Marine patrol appreciated Editor: Re: Marine Drive speedway, March 17 letters. A couple of months ago, I wrote a letter to the editor regarding speeding on Marine Drive and the lack of police presence. I am writing now to say I was very pleased on the May long weekend to see the RCMP out in full-force, pulling over many speeding drivers along Marine Drive. I realize the difficult job that the police have, in this day and age, and I just wanted to let them know that the citizens really appreciate everything that they do. Thank you for enforcing the posted speed limit. Unfortunately, the minute you leave the area, the Nascar race begins again, but while you are around, it is quite a bit more civilized! Kudos and thank you very, very much. Sandy Cooper, White Rock

Q Way to go! Good job to the RCMP, finally enforcing the 30 km/h speed limit on Marine Drive. The residents of this fine community thank you for your efforts. Yay! Now if only we could find a way to make everyone obey it all of the time, not just when the RCMP are watching! Frank Hutchinson, White Rock

Tears of joy from a stranger Editor: On May 19, my friend, Maria, was stopped at an intersection with her scooter on 152 Street in South Surrey. A man in a white car, who was also stopped at the intersection, gave a passerby a beautiful longstemmed red rose and asked him to give it to the lady in the scooter. Maria, who was dealing with some issues of her own, was so touched by the unexpected kindness that she

cried all the way home! She would like to thank the kind gentleman and wish him God’s blessing. K. Koop, White Rock

Traffic lights long overdue Editor: Re: Light speed stalls Marine drivers, May 14 letters. Thank you, White Rock council, for the lights on Marine Drive. They are very helpful. Good for council. I think the traffic lights were long overdue, and commend council for their forward thinking in this matter. I have lived in White Rock on Marine Drive for more than 20 years. Trying to get access to Marine Drive from Oxford and from the Boathouse entrance on to Marine Drive during a sunny day is almost impossible. I have on many occasions simply gone over to Stayte Street and made a right-hand turn to get home.

I also enjoy the new sidewalk and safer railing. The overgrowth of trees is another matter. Jack P. Scott, White Rock

Giving ade to a supreme visitor Editor: My son and his friend decided a lemonade stand was a good idea for May sunny long weekend. A limo drove by them on the Sunday, apparently not interested. However, it subsequently turned around and drove up to their stand. Out popped Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, who requested five glasses of lemonade for her friends. She paid $10 – including a very generous tip! The two boys – Nicholas Pusic and Jason Lozado – were ecstatic. They came running over to our home yelling, “Dad! Dad! You’ll never guess what just happened! “We just sold five lemonades for 10 bucks to our mayor, Diana Ross, in a limo!” John Pusic, Surrey

On the hot seat Editor: Re: Limited empathy, May 28 letters. If I accept the common theme in the letters to the editor in the May 28th edition of this newspaper, all ordinary Canadians should be outraged at the expense account of our member of Parliament. Certainly, politicians need to be held accountable. But, it seems Hiebert is not being given a fair hearing. Often when figures are quoted in a virtual vacuum and comparisons are made, pertinent information is overlooked. Of the $637,093 in total expenses, $422,723 were costs incurred in running the constituency office. In reality, that figure is not exorbitant. The office is there to serve constituents of all political stripes. Then there is the matter of the $214,360 in travel expenses. For those of us who are living settled lives, this seems excessive. But this needs to be placed in perspective. One does not have to be a rocket scientist to know this expense account is miniscule in comparison to the total cost of government. It would be inappropriate to compare my modest travel bill with that of a top-flight business executive. Is it any less appropriate to compare it to the expenses of a member of Parliament who is obliged to regularly travel the virtual breadth of the country? Some members of parliament are obliged to maintain homes thousands of kilometers apart. Any diligent member of Parliament is already making significant sacrifices in respect of family. Keeping the families of our representatives together should not be viewed as a luxury. Do we expect our parliamentarians to pay the

We have a young member of Parliament who, as far as I can ascertain, is both competent and conscientious. Let’s at least give Hiebert a fair hearing! Ellis André, Surrey Q It’s time for Russ Hiebert to do the right thing and either step down or announce he won’t be running for re-election. The letters to editors of several papers have carried a large number of complaints of his excessive taxpayer-funded mailouts to constituents. I have complained to his office at least six times. And now, to find out taxpayers have been paying airfares for his wife and kids to travel to Ottawa is outrageous. This is intellectually dishonest behavior, at best. Bill Phelps, Surrey Q MP Russ Hiebert and his family travelled together in compliance with parliamentary guidelines. Our MP lost his own father at an

early age, which likely adds to his yearning to be there for his children. Russ Hiebert is extremely diligent about all his responsibilities and serves this area well. I have known Russ for some years now, and he has never wavered from an absolute desire to serve his constituents and his country. L. Wright, Surrey Q So, MP Russ Hiebert spent $637,093 of our money last year – the second most expensive MP in Canada – $214,360 of which paid for his family to fly between Ottawa and his home and constituency in South Surrey-White RockCloverdale, because Russ doesn’t want to be apart from them. Ever. I thought his constituency elected one MP, not four. I guess we should be relieved that the Hieberts don’t have 10 or 15 kids. We couldn’t afford them. Jerry Steinberg, Surrey Q An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert. I just read the article in the Peace Arch News where you are defending your over-the-top travelling expenses because it is important to

keep your family together. I do not accept it is up to the taxpayers to pay for the cost of your wife and children to travel – especially first class. As a senior VP of a multinational corporation, my husband travelled constantly. I stayed behind, worked full-time in my own career and carried the bulk of the day-today parenting. Not easy, but we understood our family time was important and we made the most of our strengths and abilities to ensure the family remained strong. We did not, however, expect the company to pay for us all to travel. Every family in your constituency deserves better than to see their taxes spent so casually. You knew when you were elected that you would be spending time in Ottawa. Your decision. My decision is you will not be receiving another vote from me or anyone else I can convince that it is time for you to be away from the public trough. Perhaps our elected officials should be compelled to spend time in the private sector in order to have a reality check. Linda McLevy, South Surrey

Retired officer Len Giles recounts his career with the force – and examines the current state of policing

Author aims to ‘recapture pride’ of RCMP Tracy Holmes

Staff Reporter

fter 31 years in policing, Len Giles has stories to tell – about the time he stopped a Soviet diplomat for speeding; about Chinese counterespionage investigations; and his time with the RCMP Musical Ride, to name a few. Giles has oft told of his awakening to the realities of communism in southeast Asia and of his view of the fall of the RCMP’s Security Service. And after nearly two decades of regaling family and friends, the South Surrey man has put his views and experiences into print. He describes Wearing Red, Tracking Reds: What a Ride! as a straight-up memoir of what he saw and experienced over the course of his career. He touches on problems within the RCMP that date back to 1963, and the impact of the 1985 Air India bombing on the newly formed Canadian Security Intelligence Service, of which he was a part. “I’ve stated it as it happened, as it affected me and the way it was,” Giles said. Giles, who retired from policing in 1991, started tinkering with writing a book on his experiences about eight years ago. His role as registrar in the Braidwood Commission – which looked into the high-profile, RCMP-involved death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski at Vancouver airport in 2007 – was among more recent events that pushed him to finish the project. “With the problems the RCMP has been finding itself in over the years and… when I look at what’s happened in my career and their declining image… it made me decide to try and get this thing together – maybe clear up some of the background,” Giles said. “The book, it kind of ties that stuff together.” Working in his basement office, surrounded by books such as Inside Canadian Intelligence, The Shock Doctrine and Trudeau’s

After regaling friends with stories for years, retired RCMP officer Len Giles finally wrote them down – in his just-completed new book. Shadow – and with a circa-1941 history of the Triads, presented to Giles by a member of the Hong Kong police, nearby – the selfdescribed novice historian wrote. Along the way, he relived the difficulty of trying to do the right thing. Giles’ first doubts about the RCMP surfaced in 1963, when he was accused of acting against directions he knew nothing about. In 1977, his “moral turpitude” was questioned, after he recorded an interview with a source that led to the discovery of who bugged a cabinet minister’s chair. While

some praised Giles’ work, one senior officer reprimanded him for not disclosing to his source that the conversation was being taped. In 1989, Giles’ judgment as a manager and peace officer was questioned after an officer working in his section was accused of manipulating source payments. “The innuendo was that I was protecting him, and I didn’t follow through and take police action and arrest him,” Giles said. “(The commissioner) accused me of not being a police officer.”

The tales are many, and Giles knows not everyone will agree with his take on what happened, or with how he views the RCMP today. “Sure people are going to say, no, no, no, that’s not right – and that’s fine. We’ll see where it goes,” Giles said. “Maybe I’m looking for the old, untarnished image and the feeling of pride I had when I came to my first detachment in Princeton, and I seem to have lost that. “The force just doesn’t have the image it used to. It’s really sad for me as an ex-member... to

find myself now questioning the RCMP.” Giles expects the full Braidwood report, on the circumstances surrounding Dziesanki’s death, will not help that image. Delivered to B.C.’s attorney-general last month, it is expected to be made public sometime in June. He awaits the findings with the weight that had built up from his own experiences significantly eased by the publication of his book. “It’s the best cathartic experience that you’ll ever go through,” he said.

I’m told that substituting coffee for water significantly enhances the potency of the spray. Whenever dishwashing liquid is mentioned in a home-based insecticide, it’s very important that you use only a mild form and avoid detergent or degreasing agents and antibacterial soaps especially, as they can be harmful to plants. One general spray to protect against many common garden fungal pests is made up of a cup of chamomile tea, a half cup each of vegetable and peppermint oils and a teaspoon of liquid dishwasher or soft soap in 4.5 litres of water. Another – rather messier to prepare – consists of one-half cup each of powdered milk and molasses and a teaspoon of baking soda mixed into a paste then steeped in 4.5 litres of warm water, strained and used as a spray.

Student takes top prize in poster contest Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

Brian Giebelhaus photo

Douglas Scandrett’s poster earned top prize.

What started as a marketing class assignment for an Elgin Park Secondary student has turned into a prize-winning project that will be mass produced and distributed to schools and community centres around the province. Last month, 16-year-old Douglas Scandrett was assigned to create five posters in one week, and submit the best one to the Teens Against Gangs contest. More than 300 youth entered the competition – co-sponsored by the Vancouver Sun and the Gang Task Force – for a chance to win one of three iPads and

have their poster and its anti-gang message published. Scandrett’s poster, which he spent three hours creating on his computer, depicts a television news report of a teen killed in a shooting. The words ‘There’s better ways to tell your parents you won’t be home for dinner’ appear along the top. “It’s just supposed to symbolize how a parent would feel if they found out their kid was shot,” the Grade 11 student said. “Everyone always focuses on the youth making the right decision, but eventually the kid has to learn it’s not just him or her who is affected by what he does with his life.

“It’s just to get kids to realize there are other people in the world, not just them.” Scandrett also composed a write-up explaining what motivated him to create the poster. He said that although gangs aren’t a major issue at Elgin, their impact is felt strongly elsewhere in the Surrey School District. “Other schools in our district, it’s a huge problem, so that’s why I created (the poster), because not everyone can be fortunate enough not to have to deal with it every day.” see page 22

Long-lost play resurfaces at Playhouse

CAPRICE 2381 King George Hwy., Surrey

604-531-7456 SHOWTIMES - June 4 - 10/10

Alex Browne Arts Reporter

Early 20th century British author and playwright Githa Sowerby would be amazed. She was only able to arrange for a single performance of her proto-feminist drama The Stepmother in London in 1924. But now, more than 80 years later, her words are coming to life on the stage again, in Canada of all places. After a well-received revival at the Shaw Festival in 2008, The Stepmother opens in its first community theatre production this week, presented by the White Rock Players Club at Coast Capital Playhouse. It was considered a lost play, a mere footnote in Sowerby’s canon, until a copy was found in the files of the London office of theatrical publisher Samuel French. Why had it languished in obscurity all this while? Alan White, who directs the current production, thinks he knows. “I know there was a prejudice against female playwrights in that time which made it tougher for women to get their plays on stage – that’s one of the reasons,” he said. “The other is that there was a big gap between her big stage success, Rutherford and Son, which was

produced before the First World War, and The Stepmother.” White said the earlier play, a scathing indictment of capitalism which drew on her background as the daughter of the owner of a glassmaking factory, had “made her a household name.” But, by 1924, much of that fame had evaporated, he said. Again, Sowerby drew on situations in her own life in developing the new play. It’s a grim tale of a woman trapped by marriage and convention: Lois Gaydon (played by Chloe Traynor in the current production) had been hoodwinked, while still a teenager, into marrying manipulative spendthrift, Eustace (Fred Partridge), and becoming the stepmother to his daughters, Monica (Rebecca McEwen) and Betty (Elyse Raible). Ten years later, at 29, Lois is under few illusions about the irresponsible Eustace, or their marriage, or the reduced circumstances that have forced her to open her own dress-making business. But her promise to provide a dowry for Monica, now 19 and engaged, precipitates a true understanding of the financial jeopardy Eustace has placed the family in.

There is one light on the horizon for Lois – a lover, Peter (John Holland) who lives next door. “They are in a relationship, if not an overtly sexual one,” observed White. “They have a deep love – a great fondness for each other.” That this is considered a problem – not a resolution – is one of the things that surely stamps the play as a period piece. In the context of 1924, divorce was a last

resort. It would surely ruin Lois’ reputation – while continuing to endure a scoundrel like Eustace would not. “Today’s audience will say – particularly women – ‘we’ve come a long way, baby.’ But not all the way. That’s the relevance of the play, to look at what has changed and what hasn’t,” said White. It’s the first time directing in White Rock for White, who moved here with his wife, Lamorna, three

good characters.” White Rock-raised/ Studio 58-trained Traynor, playing older than her years, suits the role of Lois well, he said.

Why is it that the words excitement and spontaneity always seem to follow “if”, “when” or “as soon as”? Wouldn’t it be great if we could put aside all the reasons why we don’t and just do?

Of course, certain realities prevent us from living up to our full spontaneous potential - work, traffic, chores, etc… It seems like there’s always a to-do list stuck between you and your free time. Remember that trip you wanted to take? That canvas you wanted to turn into a painting, or that forgotten recipe still hanging by a fridge magnet? Is it that the days got shorter? Or did we just forget to take a timeout?

At Morgan Crossing, spontaneity is a built-in feature. It’s where your favourite restaurant, gym, shoe store, bakery, dry cleaner, hair salon and grocery store are only as far as the front door. It’s a nice change from typical suburbia where a mid-day lawn mow might be the closest thing you’ll find to spontaneity. There’s a community built around you, where you can walk to your wants and needs instead of tracking them with a GPS device. Watch life unfold in the courtyard, in the coffee shop or at the edge of your balcony. Here, time isn’t just spent, it’s enjoyed.

arts & entertainment Exhibit explores global consumption and its effects

The art of our environment Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Ian Johnston’s art is garbage. Most of the time, anyways. He knows it and regularly tries to swing away from using refuse materials in his work, frequently incorporating ceramic sculptures of various proportions. But inevitably, he returns to the trash heap for his inspiration, questioning global consumption and modern convenience in the process. His exhibition, Transnational Absolute, on now at the Surrey Art Gallery, features three artworks. The first is located in the tech gallery space outside the main gallery. Machine for Singing is an interactive piece involving ceramic bowls where the audience activates something in a separate area. Johnston doesn’t want to give away the surprise for gallery visitors, but the concept is to illustrate that “we don’t understand the repercussions of our actions,” the Nelson-based artist says. “The idea is they’re making something happen ... without realizing it.” Also outside the main gallery are a trio of Johnston’s drapemolded ceramic works of human arms and a hip. They are inspired by milagro charms, usually of various body parts, traditionally used as religious offerings in Mexico and other areas of Latin America and attached to alters or shrines. Johnston’s ceramic forms,

Artist Ian Johnston stands in front of his mural of vehicle bumpers. he says, are “milagros for our planet.” The third, perhaps most dramatic part of of the Surrey exhibition, is a ceiling-to-floor wall mural of mounted vinyl vehicle bumpers painted ultramarine blue. Titled Swimming Upstream in the Comfort of: Homage to Yves Klein (2006-2009), the piece points to how the consumer is often unaware what they’ve purchased or why. “They (vinyl bumpers) kind of crept into our world without anyone noticing. Up until the 90s, everyone had steel bumpers,” Johnston says, adding it seems unfathomable that plastic bumpers would be utilized to protect vehicles weighing thousands of

pounds. “The way we’ve used materials over the 100 years has not been all that intelligent.” Still, people have a choice in what they purchase, how they use them and how they dispose of things – and it’s something worth talking about, says the architect-turned-artist. “It’s not about making people feel bad about wanting things,” Johnston says. “It’s to engage people in discussion.” The show, entitled Ian Johnston: Transnational Absolute, is on display until June 21.

The makers of Hong Kong’s Octopus card and London’s Oyster card are on TransLink’s short list to set up similar smart cards and turnstiles to control payment and access to the transit system here. The faregates and cards system – initially estimated to cost $171 million – is to be in place by 2013. TransLink expects to sign a contract by the end of the year with one of three groups of bidding firms: • Thales/Octopus International Projects, maker of Hong Kong’s Octopus card. • Serco/Parkeon, provider of a smart card system in Perth, Australia. • Cubic/IBM, operator of the London Oyster card system. All three bidders are suppliers of multiple existing systems in either Europe, Australia or major U.S. cities. They were picked from 10 initial groups to submit detailed bids after a request for proposals is issued in mid-June. Passengers will be able to load money on their smart cards, which have an electronic chip, and then use them for fare payment by swiping them past a reader as they board and disembark. Funds will automatically be debited from their accounts. Along with the cards, some form of turnstiles would be installed at all SkyTrain and SeaBus stations, end-

Smart cards, like London’s Oyster card, are coming to B.C. ing unrestricted access to the rapid transit system. It’s estimated 5.6 per cent of SkyTrain passengers don’t pay to ride, depriving the system of $6 million a year, but critics contend staffing turnstiles are likely to cost far more than any money recovered. The Expo Line will require renovations to accommodate turnstiles. The province is providing $40 million towards the costs and another $30 million will come from the federal government, with TransLink covering the rest. The new card system promises convenience for riders. It could also eliminate the current three-zone payment system in favour of charging passengers based on either distance travelled or time on the system. It’s also expected the system will give much better data on actual transit use.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Kuss fired as coach of Surrey Eagles Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Shane Kuss was fired as head coach of the Surrey Eagles Tuedsay, one day after the new ownership group – led by local businessman Chuck Westgard – officially took control of the franchise. Assistant coach Matt Erhart was promoted to head coach. When news broke in March that the team was to be sold, Westgard said the coaching staff would remain intact, but after “thinking about it and doing some research,” decided to change direction and make the switch.

“It wasn’t something we originally planned on doing, but we just figured that, with us coming in, now was a good time for a fresh start and to rebrand the team,” Westgard said this week. “It’s nothing personal, and the (team’s past record) only had a little to do with it.. we just wanted a new start.” Kuss did not return calls seeking comment. Westgard said brief thought was given to hiring a new head coach who would be new to the organization, but ultimately decided to go with the 31-year-old Erhart who, like

Kuss, is a former Eagles player. “It’s just a bit of a hunch, really,” Westgard said of his new hire. “He knows the players, knows the league... we know he’s got a great work ethic... We thought he deserved a chance, and we’re confident that, given this shot, he’ll be very successful in helping us put a winning team in place. He’s our guy going forward... it’s his baby now.” Last season was Erhart’s first as assistant coach with Surrey. Prior to joining the B.C. Hockey League team, he spent two years coaching the Greater Vancouver Canadians

of the B.C. Major Midget League. “I’m excited. It’s a great honour for myself,” said Erhart, adding that he’d only had a few brief meetings with his new bosses before being offered the job Tuesday. “The direction the team is going, and the enthusiasm and new direction from the owners is great. I’m really excited and thankful for the opportunity.” Erhart admitted the appointment was somewhat bittersweet, however, considering he’s replacing a former colleague. “Shane’s a great coach and a really classy see page 28

from page 27 guy, and you never like to see anybody lose their job,” he said. “I learned a lot (last season)... the BCHL is a lot different than major midget, so last year was a good experience.” The Eagles were ousted in the first round of BC Hockey League playoffs last season, and in three seasons at the helm, Kuss failed to get the team past the second round. Kuss is a former coach of the year in the junior B ranks with the Delta Ice Hawks, and is the BCHL’s all-time leading scorer. He was hired in 2007 – replacing Rick Hillier – by former owner Ronnie Paterson, who still acts as the team’s governor. Paterson agreed with the decision to fire Kuss, Westgard said. “Everybody agreed it was the right move. It was fine with everybody,” Westgard said. “To get to where we want to go, we decided we needed to do this.

File photo

Shane Kuss was fired as head coach Tuesday. With new management, comes change.” Erhart is the Eagles’ fourth head coach since the championshipwinning 2004/05 campaign. That season began with Ryan Thorpe behind the bench, before he left midseason for the Western Hockey League and was replaced by Hillier at Christmas. Hillier lasted two seasons before Kuss came aboard in January of the 2006/07 season. Helping Erhart in his rookie season as bench boss will be former NHL defenceman Gary Nylund, a Peninsula

resident who is part of the new ownership group. Nylund will serve as an assistant

coach with the team. Westgard didn’t foresee any problem having a team owner working under a rookie head coach. “No, I don’t see that being a problem... I think Matt and Gary will work really well together,” Westgard said. In other coaching moves, Jim Babcock, who has served in a variety of roles with the team in recent years, was named an assistant coach, while former assistant Roger Ross was released.

Shutout win Playing at the stadium dubbed “the best little ballpark in the world,” the White Rock Tritons returned to the field Tuesday after a weekend of rest to shut out the Vancouver Cannons, 4-0 at Nat Bailey Stadium. Pitcher Jeff Degano went the distance on the hill for White Rock, striking out seven, while allowing just three hits, in seven innings of work. His won-lost record is 2-2 for the season. Offensively, the Tritons were led by speedy leadoff hitter Josh Sigurdson, who went 3-for-4 at the plate, with two runs scored. He also stole four bases. Josh Larsen and Todd

Lawrie named player of year For the second consecutive season, University of Washington pitcher Danielle Lawrie won USA Softball’s National Collegiate Player of the Year award. The Langley native, and former White Rock Renegade, was announced as the winner Wednesday, beating out her Team Canada teammate Jennifer Yee, a North Delta native who attends Georgia Tech; and UCLA’s Megan Langenfeld for the honour. Lawrie is only the second player to ever win the award twice. This season, the senior compiled a record of 40-3, and led the NCAA in strikeouts with 478, in just 288.1 innings of work. Lawrie was no slouch with the bat, either, leading the University of Washington Huskies with 15 home runs and 57 RBI. “Obviously this is a prestigious award, so I am deeply honored,” said Lawrie in a release posted on the Huskies website. “I would not have won it if my team didn’t do what it has been doing all year... It’s tough for me to take the credit. This is a huge honour and I’m extremely thankful.” The award is one of a handful won by the softball phenom this year. Lawrie has already earned first-team All-Pacific Region, first-team AllPac-10 and was named the Pac-10 Pitcher of the Year for a second straight season. She won the Pac-10 Pitcher-of-theWeek award a record eight times during the 2010 season and also won five different National Player of the Week honours.

LOST AND FOUND

MISSING

Please call “Caring Hearts” 604-598-1177 Betty Mensinger, (Drew) May 18, 1929 - May 17, 2010 We are sad to announce the passing of our dear mother, Betty Ewart Mensinger. Betty was a strong, beautiful liberated woman who will be greatly missed by her family and many friends. She was a woman ahead of her time who always believed in equality and equity. Betty graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1950. She was born in Saskatchewan and lived in Ontario after she was married but has lived in the White Rock/S.Surrey area for many years. Betty was an award winning quilter, long time member and past president of the Peace Arch and Fraser Valley Quilters Guilds. She was also a member of the Serendipity Stitchers needlepoint club. Betty exercised at the South Surrey Recreation Centre with the early crowd and walked the White Rock promenade daily. She was an avid wine maker and was well known for her positive attitude and quick wit. Betty retired from the Surrey Credit Union in 1992 and she had a positive impact on the many people she came into contact with both personally and professionally throughout her life. She is survived by her three children, Murray (Bev), Jean (Berdie), Diane (Aaron), six grandchildren Diane (Konrad), Zach, Martine (Tanqueray), Nina, Austin, Zoe and two great grandchildren, Maggie and Jack. A celebration of life will be held in her honour on Friday June 11, 2010 at 2pm at the Paciﬁc Inn (Pink Palace) in White Rock. THOMSON, M. Elizabeth (Betty) born September 2, 1922.

He is survived by his daughter Lesley, son Gary and grandchildren Benjamin and Emiley. Peter leaves behind his best friend and soul mate Gloria and is fondly remembered by her children and grandchildren. His wit, humor and charm will be remembered by all who knew him. His retirement years were spent traveling, he especially enjoyed the Oregon coast. He received great joy being an active member of the men’s club at St. Mark’s Anglican Church. He left us too soon, but left a lifetime of memories. In lieu of ﬂowers a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or a charity of your choice would be appreciated. A Memorial Service will be held at St. Mark’s Anglican Church, 12953-20th Ave. in South Surrey on Saturday June 5 at 11 am followed by a reception in the church hall.

She is also survived by her sister Verna Rost and husband Fred, plus several nieces and nephews of whom she was very fond. Ethel was a dear friend or “Grandma” to Dianne LaSchiazza, Michelle LaSchiazza and family, Nancy White and Irene Campbell. She enjoyed a long rich life, and was grateful for its joys, and especially for the many people who loved her. A private gathering will be held to share memories and to celebrate her well-lived life. We will greatly miss her wisdom, wit and generous heart. The family is very grateful for the kindness of her friends and care-givers at Evergreen Baptist Care. www.bcclassified.com

OBITUARIES

Hogg, Kathleen Blair July 14, 1918 – May 29, 2010 It is with great sadness we announce the loss of our loving mother and grandmother, Kathleen Blair Hogg (nee King). Born on July 14, 1918 in Fairfax Manitoba she was raised on the extensive family farm which was awarded the distinction of being named the most beautiful farm in Manitoba. She trained as a registered nurse in Portage La Prairie and then moved to Vancouver in the early 1940’s to nurse at Vancouver General Hospital. In 1942 she joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and was stationed at Pat Bay on Vancouver Island where she met the love of her life Dr RJ Allan Hogg. They were married on June 20, 1945 at Christ Church Cathedral in Vancouver and moved to White Rock the following year to join the community and raise their family. She was an active member of many community groups including being a founding member of the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary, the Rotary Anns, and the Daughters of the Nile. After raising her family she enrolled at the British Columbia Institute of Technology where she upgraded her registered nursing degree and returned to nursing in her early 60’s. Our mother was a gracious, funny, compassionate woman who was always present for her husband, children, and grandchildren. The memories are forever. Predeceased by her loving husband in 2005 she will be sorely missed by her children Gordon (LaVerne), Joan (Bill), Linda, John (Tracy) and her seven grandchildren James, Blair, Robert (Tania), Katy, Ali, Allan, and Jackson. A service will be held in her honour on Tuesday June 22, 2010 @ 3:00pm at First United Church 15385 Semiahmoo Avenue, White Rock BC. In lieu of ﬂowers the family asks that donations be made to the Dr Al Hogg Family Doctor Legacy Fund at the Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation 15521 Russell Avenue, White Rock BC V4B 2R4 which raises funds to develop and train family doctors to serve the community of White Rock. The family extends their sincere thanks to the wonderful residents and staff of the Dr Al Hogg Pavilion of Peace Arch Hospital who lovingly cared for our mother in her last years.
