STUDENTS BACK, NEW PASSES ISSUED The return of school this week of elementary and secondary

students is a big event for them, but has a special meaning for everyone else, too.

Motorists, naturally. should be aware that students will be walking and riding their bikes to classes during school ho and should watch for them on the roads.

Transit passengers should be prepared for slightly more crowded buses at times when students are heading lo and from classes.

And students themselves should be receiving their new bus passes for the current school year, issued individually by the schools in which they are enrolled. However, last year's passes are valid until Scpt. IS.

The passe0 entitle students lo travel for a reduced single zone fare of 25 cents (half the adult fare) and are g o 4 at all times throughout the system. I t is not necessary to show your pass upon boarding the bus during school hours, but you must have it ready for the driver to see upon request. Passes must be shown during non-school hours.

We welcome all students back to classes, and we hope, regular use of the transit system.

Have a safe and happy school year!

MUNDY PASSENGERS NOTE The wakday 647 p.m. departure of the 154 Mundy

service from Lougheed Mall is no longer operating. Passengers should take either the 6:l7 or 7:02 p.m. departure. for E a t h and Columbia.

HONESTY CLEARS CONSCIENCE Doug Anderson's letter from Winnipeg warmed the hearts

at B.C. Hydro Transit. Recently returned from a holiday in Vancouver, Doug's let-

ter contained a cheque for S1.SO. in payment of three fares on Sea-Bus Doug and his family had neglected to pay at the time.

"I need lo corrccl the situation." Doug wrote. "This may seem Uke a small matter. . .but there should be justice in all things."

We thank you for your openness and your honesty, D and hope your adions set an example for others.
