As the Rossland community mourns one of its own lost through a violent act, the Southeast District RCMP continue to actively seek and follow up tips into the murder of Thomas Feeney.

The body of Mr. Feeney was found in his home on Feeney Road in Rossland last Thursday following what Mounties have said is a violent homicide during a robbery.

“I cannot speak to what stage the investiga-tion is at other than to say this is a very active and ongoing investigation,” Cst. Kris Clark from the Kelowna detachment told the Trail Times Wednesday.

Former Local 480 President, Doug Jones, has openly declared his intent to file the necessary paperwork to enter the race to become Mayor of Trail in the coming municipal elections this fall.

The 61-year-old Jones retired from his position with the Steelworkers union a year ago but says he feels passion-ate about the area and the community and is willing to set aside his golf game to take on the demands of running for the mayor’s job.

“There’s a lot that can be accomplished and it’s a chal-lenge I’d like to take on,” said Jones. “Of course I’m not taking this lightly, I’ve had conversations with friends and family and I feel I’ve got support.”

Jones said that a mayoral run isn’t a new idea for him but is something that has been in the background for some time.

“This goes back further than this election,” he said. “I was approached a number of times before the last election but had already committed to staying on through bargaining.”

City employees Jen Daoust and John Harper, were on the job at the Trail Memorial Centre Wednesday morning setting the stage for the J.L. Crowe Secondary graduation ceremony slated for Friday at 7 p.m. Rehearsal for 168 Grade 12 Crowe students began that afternoon, a day earlier than usual, to accommodate Thursday’s school closure due to the teacher’s rotating strike action.

B Y S H E R I R E G N I E R Times Staff

With just weeks left in the school year, B.C. teachers have voted in favour of a full scale strike, although when full-scale job action happens is yet to be determined.

The result of the vote, conducted Monday and Tuesday, showed 89 per cent in favour, or 28,809 out of 33,387 ballots cast.

A record high turnout in favour of escalating job action up to and including full withdrawal of services was reflected in votes cast from Kootenay Columbia teachers, according to the local union’s president.

“I want to express my deepest grati-tude and respect for the resounding sup-port and solidarity shown by Kootenay

Columbia teachers by their vote in our local,” wrote Andy Davidoff, president of Kootenay Columbia Teacher’s Union in an email statement to the Trail Times.

The earliest a full-scale strike could begin is Monday but with no 72-hour strike notice issued as of Wednesday afternoon, the strike start could shift to Tuesday next week or later.

Full job action would close elemen-tary and middle schools while secondary schools would be open only to conduct exams for Grade 10 to 12 students.

As parents and students wait out a full strike date, Lisa Stewart, chair of the district parents advisory council (PAC) and Glenmerry PAC, said families have already been advised to make child care arrangements from now until the end of June.

“We don’t know what’s going to hap-pen but we want them to be prepared,” explained Stewart.

Parents are being constantly updated through social media and emails, she said, but if teachers walk and there’s no school, an important line of communi-cation is cut off.

“So many of our year end activities are up in the air because we usually send the information home with the kids,” Stewart said. “And if we only have three days notice we will be totally cut off from parents.”

Throughout June, Glenmerry PAC sponsors various activities on school grounds including a fun day and a hot lunch special.

Now those plans could be cancelledSee GRAD, Page 3

Students, family, friends, and local supporters of Kootenay Columbia Learning Centre (KCLC) gathered in the School District 20 (SD 20) facility in East Trail to congratulate 11 students as they donned black gowns and followed the procession to celebrate their high school graduation ceremony Wednesday afternoon.

Graduates, Rayann Boilard, Josh Burkart, Nicole Foyle, Wayne Haines, Kyle MacKay, Alex Stansfield, Dallas Tymkiw, Kristopher Walsh, Ashley Watson, Skye Weiss, and class valedictorian, Shane Flynn, were piped into the school’s gym to be acknowledged

for their efforts in completing their studies with SD 20’s Alternative Education Program.

The 11 Trail campus students join 22 others who have completed their studies through online cours-es and Continuing Education.

The KCLC students, in addition to their academic programs, have the opportunity to gain invalu-able experience through programs focusing on career and pre-employ-ment skills, physical education, Adventure Based Learning through the Take a Hike program, nutri-tional programs, community volun-teer activities, and social awareness and personal development through numerous guest presentations, and educational and active field trips.

FROM PAGE 1last minute, adding to the list of field trips and outings the children have missed since job action began April 23.

“The hardest part for us is the end of the year because we offer school supplies and things to order for next year,” Stewart said. “Our ability to reach our entire parental group will end.

“At this point we are relying on Facebook and doing the best we can otherwise.”

If teachers do a full scale with-drawal of service, questions about final exams and official transcripts for local high school students remain unanswered.

“All of those questions are still in the planning stage,” confirmed Greg Luterbach, SD20 super-intendent. “As for grads, all four

are proceeding this week,” he said. “The formal school graduation

ceremonies are done by staff with parents and volunteers helping.”

The BCTF’s latest proposal is for increases totalling 9.75 per cent over four years, plus cost-of-living adjustments in each year tied to inflation.

The province has offered a $1,200 signing bonus if teachers accept its proposal of 7.25 per cent in wage increases over six years by June 30.

Teachers in School District 20 (SD20) echo the BCTF’s president’s comment that, “there is no rea-son why a province as rich as B.C. should be second last when it comes to funding education,” said Davidoff.

“We want a deal not a fight before the end of June.”

“Any and all resources need-ed to identify the individual or individuals are in place.”

Autopsy results are being withheld pending the course of a trial, said Clark. “This is

necessary to protect the integ-rity of the investigation.”

Preliminary findings from the ongoing investigation lead investigators to believe that this was a random incident or a crime of opportunity against the 75-year-old man.

Specific items missing from Feeney’s home include an

LCD television; ammunition-reloading equipment and five firearms, one described as a unique rifle with an octagon-shaped barrel and distinctive firing mechanism and sight.

Tips are being received from the public and anyone with information to contact the tipline at 1.877.987.8477.

RCMP asking public for information

FROM PAGE 1He said that although he

had a full plate with his union position, keeping tabs on civic politics was something that always drew his attention, largely because people were encouraging him to consider that course.

“I think the reason people are interested in seeing me run is I know all the players in the area, although a lot of that could change after the election,” he said.

“I have a lot of experience in negotiations at high levels, I believe that I could bring some peace to this area.”

In spite of the fact that the only other individual who has openly declared an inter-

est in the mayor’s position is Mike Martin, the retired gen-eral manager of Teck Metal’s Trail operations who would have sat across the table from Jones during negotiations at the area’s largest employer, Jones maintains that his cur-rent goal has nothing to do with his former position or any kind of unstated rivalry.

“I want to immediately dis-pel any kind of union ver-sus company thoughts right now,” Jones said.

“Both Mike and I have moved on, we retired from those positions and, truth be told, he and I worked through a lot together at Teck.

“This is more about what I bring to council and the com-

munity, it might be a different approach than Mike but this has nothing to do with polit-ical parties or old arguments. This is civic politics and what we can do for this area.

“I want to make a differ-ence for the community and for the surrounding area.

“I was born and raised here, my whole family was raised here, my sisters are here, and my daughter owns a small business in town. I want to make it better for everyone.

“I think that building integrity and trust in some of the relationships may be the biggest challenge but we need to get the community moving forward.”

Law Society of B.C. members voted 76 per cent against approv-al of a law school at Trinity Western University over its opposition to sex out-side heterosexual mar-riage.

The vote of the spe-cial general meeting isn’t binding on the

board of governors, who previously voted to approve the con-tentious law school in Langley.

Opponents within the legal community argued the Christian university’s commun-ity covenant prohib-iting “sexual intim-acy that violates the sacredness of marriage between a man and a

woman” discriminates on the basis of sexual orientation against gay and lesbian law stu-dents and faculty.

The vote was 3,210 in favour to 968 opposed.

The governors, known as Benchers, made their decision April 11 after exten-sive debate, a number of legal opinions and a Supreme Court of Canada decision on religious freedom won by Trinity Western University in 2001.

TWU president Bob Kuhn said he’s dis-appointed by the vote.

“Difficult decisions involving fundamental rights and freedoms should not be decided by popular opinion,” Kuhn said, adding the Benchers’ thorough review “should not be undermined by a vocal group that organizes a special general meet-ing.”

He said there’s no evidence that religious beliefs of TWU-trained lawyers would affect their ability to serve all clients.

“A just society pro-tects the rights of reli-gious minorities.”

Law Society presi-dent Jan Lindsay said Benchers will give the result of the vote “ser-ious and thoughtful consideration.”

A pipeline com-pany aiming to trans-port natural gas to a proposed LNG facility in Prince Rupert has submitted an applica-tion to go through the Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park in the Nass Valley.

The Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Project is owned by TransCanada and would pump natural

gas approximately 900 kilometres from northeastern B.C. to the proposed Pacific NorthWest LNG facil-ity on Lelu island just outside of Prince Rupert.

TransCanada wants to clear a 50-metre wide right-of-way through a 14-kilometre stretch of the park west of New Aiyansh with most of the right-of-way par-alleling Hwy113, the Nisga’a Highway.

The lava beds which make up a majority of the park were creat-ed approximately 250 years ago when a vol-canic eruption spilled into the valley, cover-ing two villages and killing approximately 2,000 people.

The area was regis-tered as a Class A prov-incial park in 1992 and is now managed in partnership with between the Nisga’a Lisims Government

and BC Parks.In its application

for a park bound-ary adjustment, TransCanada says the 48-inch diameter pipe-line will be buried and that there will be no above ground struc-tures such as compres-sor stations.

After the pipeline is installed, the legal right-of-way will be reduced to 32 metres, with approximate-ly 10 metres of that

maintained. “Natural revegetation will be encouraged,” reads the proposal.

Nisga’a Lisims officials have so far declined to comment on the plan.

A summary of the application filed by TransCanada states it studied various alternative routes through the Nisga’a traditional and treaty territory before decid-ing on the Nisga’a park route.

“The routes that avoided the park were deemed most challen-ging and removed from consideration early in the process,” says the application summary about alternatives.

Two options were looked at for the park, one which would have skirted the south-

ern boundaries, but the pipeline company decided to follow the Nisga’a Highway instead to avoid water-ways and culturally significant sites.

The park boundary adjustment application includes a series of open houses beginning in Terrace on June 16.

TransCanada esti-mates that there will be 110 person years of employment to Nisga’a people during a three-year construction per-iod of the project, with construction of the Nisga’a Memorial park right-of-way pegged for summer and fall of 2017 and predicted to take four months.

Provincial legisla-tion passed in March, Bill 4, allows compan-ies to do assessment work within provincial

park boundaries to be used for potential park boundary adjustments applications.

After the pub-lic consultation and reporting stage the boundary adjustment then goes to the prov-incial cabinet where an amendment to the parks legislation is granted or denied.

TransCanada is still working on its plans for the remainder of the pipeline routing out of the Nisga’a terri-tory. Their most recent map shows underwater routing from the coast down to the proposed Lelu island facility. However, other routes, including one that would run north of the Nass Valley and enter the water at Kitsault instead, are still being looked at.

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SOTTAWA - Former

Bank of Canada gov-ernor David Dodge is taking issue with the notion that balancing government budgets as quickly as possible is the key to a strong economy, or that it is a wise policy at the moment.

In a new paper for the Bennett Jones legal firm, where he is now a senior adviser, Dodge analyses the two-speed Canadian economy and has some advice for governments to improve competitive-ness and growth.

Without naming any specific govern-ments or politicians, Dodge makes clear that he believes now is not the time to slash and burn to get to a balanced budget.

Instead, the empha-sis should be on tak-ing advantage of low interest rates to invest in infrastructure to help improve Canada’s lagging productivity, which he says is hold-ing back the economy.

The aim should not be to get deficits to zero as quickly as pos-sible, but to reduce deficits to below nom-inal growth in the economy so that defi-cits become an ever-decreasing share of gross domestic prod-uct, he says.

“It is thus import-ant to realize that in the current environ-ment of low long-term

interest rates, fiscal prudence does not require bringing the annual budget bal-ance to zero almost immediately. Small increases in borrow-ing requirements to finance infrastructure investment would still lead to declines in the debt-to-GDP ratio,” he writes.

“ G o v e r n m e n t s should expand their investment in infra-structure while restraining growth in their operating expenditures so as to gradually reduce their public debt-to-GDP ratio.”

The advice from one of Canada’s most respected central bank-ers - he headed the institution between 2001 and 2008 during one of the country’s most expansive eco-nomic periods - comes at a time when the issue of fiscal policy is front and centre in pol-itical discussion.

On Monday, federal Finance Minister Joe Oliver chided both Ontario and Quebec for failing to corral their deficits, tying fis-cal policy in Canada’s two largest provinces to weak economic per-formance.

The Harper gov-ernment also has taken pot shots at Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau’s less aggres-sive stance on deficit elimination. Trudeau has suggested the

budget will return to balance through eco-nomic growth, without the need for aggressive austerity measures.

As well, Ontario Conservative leader Tim Hudak has made fiscal prudence the central plank in his campaign, promising to eliminate 100,000 public service jobs if elected on Thursday.

By Dodge’s analy-sis, which he co-wrote with Bennett Jones advisers Richard Dion and John Weekes, one of the chief problems with the Ontario and Quebec economies is loss of competitiveness since 2003 as higher commodity prices, par-ticularly for Alberta oil, pushed up the dollar at the expense of central Canada’s manufactur-ing sector.

From 2008 to 2012, he says, Canada bene-fited from favourable terms of trade due to elevated commod-ity prices, but the spoils were not evenly spread.

“At the same time as they were buttressing real national income and domestic spend-ing, the high commod-ity prices and terms of trade contributed to keep the Canadian dollar strong, thereby holding down real net exports,” Dodge said.

“The resulting negative impact on real GDP would have varied considerably across provinces ... Ontario

likely experienced rela-tively more severe loss-es of output than other regions of Canada as a direct result of losses in exports.”

As well, Dodge says although commodity sales were a net gain for Canada, the gain was “highly concentrated in commodity-produ-cing Western Canada and Newfoundland and Labrador.”

“The net impact of the terms of trade on real domestic income, on the other hand, we estimate to have been positive for most provinces but not for Ontario.”

In another rec-o m m e n d a t i o n , Dodge warns against Canadian regulators falling too closely in line with global finan-cial system reforms being implemented as a result of the melt-down in 2008 that trig-gered the worldwide recession.

While he agrees with forcing banks to retain more capital to backstop their oper-ations, the move to “deadweight” regula-tions that add to com-pliance costs is less-ening Canada’s advan-tage in the sector, he says.

Politicians preoccupied with budgets rather than fixing infrastructure, warns former bank boss

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S STORONTO - Uninspiring choices at the

ballot box, negative campaigns and unpreced-ented involvement from organized labour have political observers worried that the upcoming Ontario election will be marred by yet another disappointing voter turnout.

Ontarians have shown a growing propen-sity to stay home on election day over the past two decades, with voter turnout num-bers steadily falling from 64 per cent in 1990 to a historic low of 48 per cent in 2011.

Experts monitoring the most recent cam-paign say they fear voters have been given little incentive to buck the trend this time around.

Queen’s University Political Studies Professor Jonathan Rose said the 40-day campaign hasn’t featured any of the usual factors that drive people to the polls.

Voters are usually galvanized by either a single hot-button issue or an active eco-nomic crisis, he said, adding none of those factors are present this time around.

More importantly, however, he said is the question of leadership. Rose said Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne, Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak and NDP Leader Andrea Horwath have all failed to capture the public’s imagination despite their stark ideological differences and clearly defined visions of how the province would look under their leadership.

“There is not a lot of enthusiasm for any of the leaders, in part because I don’t think any of them are inspiring,” Rose said in a telephone interview from Kingston, Ont. “They’re not motivating people to go out and vote because of some inspirational idea.”

The flat response to the front-runners seems to be born out in the various polls gauging public interest in the election.

The margin between voters backing Wynne and those supporting Hudak has lev-elled off at roughly one per cent among the most recent survey results, with undecided voters consistently pegged at more than 10 per cent.

Experts said the era of the disengaged voter makes it increasingly difficult to pre-dict how the undecided voter will behave when election day rolls around.

OPINION

All eyes on Clark as pipeline decision nearsWith the federal

government’s decision on E n b r i d g e ’ s

Northern Gateway oil tanker and pipeline pro-posal expected within the next week, the political hot potato is definitely back in B.C. Premier Christy Clark’s lap.

Throughout 2012 and 2013, Clark doled out a lot of tough talk when it came to Northern Gateway, going so far as to tell the Toronto Globe and Mail that pushing ahead with the pipeline would spur a “national political crisis.”

“Whether or not people supported the pipeline, they would band together to fight the federal gov-ernment if they decided to intrude into British Columbia without our consent,” she told the newspaper in October 2012.

“This project can only go ahead if it has the social licence to do so.

It can only get the social licence from the citizens of British Columbia,” she pointed out.

Speaking to Calgary university students the same month, Clark point-ed out the B.C. govern-ment could withhold 60 different permits or refuse to hook pumping stations up to the province’s elec-trical grid.

“The thing is, if British Columbia doesn’t give its consent to this, there is no way the federal gov-ernment or anyone else in the country is going to be able to force it through. It just won’t happen,” Clark said.

These statements don’t leave a whole lot of room for Clark to manoeuvre, especially considering the Globe recently reported that none of her five conditions for approving heavy oil pipelines have been met.

It’s a point that hasn’t been overlooked by B.C.

environment and democ-racy campaigners. Earlier this month, Forest Ethics Advocacy launched a new campaign called Stand Strong Christy.

“Thousands of British Columbians from across the province are send-ing messages calling on Premier Clark to con-tinue opposing Northern Gateway and standing up for our watersheds, coast and children’s future,” said Nikki Skuce, ForestEthics Advocacy senior energy

campaigner.“With (Prime Minister

Stephen) Harper’s likely approval of the pipeline, we need our premier to stand with the majority of B.C. and push back on ever getting Northern Gateway built.”

Meanwhile, another B.C. group is organizing for a citizens’ initiative to put the Enbridge pipeline to an HST-style vote if Clark reverses her pos-ition on the project.

Dogwood Initiative reports it has 75 local teams collecting petition signatures in advance of the federal government’s decision.

“For this pipeline to be built, First Nations along the route as well as a democratic majority of British Columbians would have to support the pro-ject.

Neither appears like-ly,” said Kai Nagata, Dogwood’s energy and democracy director, in a

press release. And another cam-

paign, led by LeadNow and ForestEthics Advocacy, is targeting the 21 Conservative MPs in British Columbia who could feel the electoral fall-out in the next elec-tion if the feds green-light Northern Gateway.

While the feds certainly deserve to feel some heat, it’s Clark on whom the spotlight is likely to shine the brightest in the short-term, given her election promise to “put B.C. first” and “stand strong” on her five conditions.

When the Northern Gateway announcement comes down, British Columbians are going to look to Clark to put her money where her mouth is – and it’s hard to see how she’s going to hand off the hot potato this time around.

I am writing to draw your readers attention to a serious threat to Canada's Medicare that could change our public health care system into one modelled after the United States two-tiered, for-profit system.

A legal challenge to Medicare has been initiated by Dr.Brian Day, owner of the Vancouver based, for-profit Cambie Surgical Clinic which is known for unlawfully billing for medi-cally necessary care. When patients complained and Dr. Day got wind that the com-plaints would be investigated, he started the legal case in an attempt to get around the law.

The case, which will be heard in the BC Supreme Court this fall, has been called “the most significant constitutional chal-lenge in Canadian history”.

If Dr. Day is successful and wins this case, it could have far reaching effects across Canada and for all of us. It would open the door to a US style system where a family of four pays $16,000 annually for health insurance often with less cover-age than under Medicare.

There are some 45 million

Americans who have no cover-age, and health care costs are the major cause of bankruptcies in the US. Such a system would drain physician and other resources from public health care and result in even longer wait lists in the public system, particularly for those without the ability to pay.

We are all aware of the wait times and other stresses on Medicare, largely due to years of under funding of health care by the two senior levels of gov-ernment. We also know that we have excellent staff at the direct patient care level. However, at the end of March this year, the Federal Government unilater-ally and without consultation, terminated the

Canada Health Care ccord which resulted in the loss of millions of dollars by the prov-inces who have the primary responsibility to provide health care to its citizens.

The BC Health Coalition and Canadian Doctors for Medicare have been granted intervener status in the case which means they can participate directly in the case. In the effort to defend

Medicare in court it is impor-tant that the people of B.C. also speak out to support them and the BC Government in vigor-ously fending off this attempt to privatize health care in Canada. It is essential that we do this in order to ensure that the prin-ciples of Medicare (universality, accessibility, portability, com-prehensiveness and non profit administration) are maintained for all citizens, now and in the future.

To this end, the Society for the Protection and Care of Seniors (SPCS) is holding a Defend Medicare Forum on Wednesday, June 18,2014, 7 p.m. at Trail United Church (1300 Pine Avenue).

The keynote speaker will be Rick Turner of the BC Health Coalition and there will be an opportunity for questions and discussion, along with refresh-ments and a visit with friends and neighbours.

For those with questions, please can call me at 250-364-1487.

Defend Medicare forum on June 18

So I went out for a drive to the Pend D’Oreille on Friday and I was so disappointed at the way it looked. Last Thursday was grad and it sickens me how disgusting this year’s grad class left it. There was garbage left everywhere.

I’ve tried getting in touch with Crowe but no-one has got-ten back to me.

The garbage sat out there all weekend and when some Grade 12 were confronted they said they were to hung over and had school that’s why they didn’t pick it up Friday.

When I went out Friday it was at 6:30 p.m. so they could have came after school. Apparently some went and cleaned up Friday but they didn’t take the garbage with them then left a big box and two huge garbage bags.

I went out Sunday to go to Buckley and drove past the grad spot again and it was still gross. They left the two garbage bags and a big wooden box of garbage in the middle of the stag field.

There was still garbage lay-

ing around on the ground and their empties were scattered all over the place.

Now what bothers me is I go out to the Pondy every weekend to camp, and when I’m done it doesn’t matter if I’m hungover or still drunk I still have to clean my mess before I leave and have to take it with me.

Where in the heck do they think it’s okay to go cleanup the next day.

This is a road that I travel quite often with my five-year-old daughter and it’s sad to hear her talk about the huge mess that the grad class left. She was quite upset that they would leave it where all the baby ani-mals live.

She asked me what will hap-pen to the babies if they get into the garbage? There is a fox den and a coyote den in that area that both have had batches of pup.

It is now Monday and there is still garbage out there and empties scattered throughout the trees and grass.

When I went on Facebook and saw that some of the resi-

dents that live in the Pend D’Oreille have gone and cleaned up the mess that the Grade 12s left out there.

It’s not the responsibility of the residents to pick it up. It should have been Crowe and the grad class out there clean-ing up.

And to top it all of they have their stag on someone’s private property. How do you think they feel when they go out there and see the mess all these young kids have made?

As a person who loves being out in the bush it makes me sick to know that these kids are treating our Mother Nature like crap. Either Crowe needs to step forward and apologize for this or they need the students to.

Maybe they should just do stag at the school from now on so that these teenagers stop hurting our beautiful world.

Those mountains are my back yard and I don’t want to see them shut down cause of ignorance and stupidity

DAVIES (NEE NORDLUND), MAY ILENE – May 23, 1922 – April 26, 2014

It is with deep sad-ness that we announce the passing of May Ilene Davies on April 26 at Langley Memorial Hospital.

May was born in New Norway, Alberta on May 23, 1922. In 1925 she moved to Kimberley, B.C. After graduation from high school, May attended Pitman Business School in Vancouver returning to Kimberley to work as a cashier at the Bank of Mont-real. In 1944 she married Ken. After the birth of their first child in 1947, May’s priority became one of being a mom. In 1971 May and Ken moved to Trail where they resided for 36 years before mov-ing to Langley, B.C to be closer to their children and grandchildren.

An avid gardener, knitter, pianist, bridge player and crossworder, May also enjoyed her sports – bowling, bad-minton and golf. A lifetime member of United Church Women (U.C.W.), May was active in Trail United Church and sang in the choir. Another passion was the Trail Hospital Auxiliary where she worked tirelessly wrapping bandages for use in the hospital.

May’s greatest joy was her family. She was predeceased by her husband of 64 years, Ken, in 2008. May will be loving-ly remembered by her children Leiana Wilson (Craig), Robert (Karen), Colin (Sharon) and Ilene Dyck (Andrew).

On June 14, after a private interment service, the family invites you to join them in a Memorial Tea reception at the Trail United Church at 2:00pm.

NATIONAL FITNESS DAY

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SALBUQUERQUE, N.M.

- Martha Hyer, an Oscar-nominated actress who starred alongside the likes of Frank Sinatra and Humphrey Bogart, and later gained notoriety for her extravagant lifestyle, has died.

Hyer passed away May 31 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Raymond Lucero of Rivera Funeral Home told The Associated Press.

She was 89.Born in Fort Worth, Texas,

the easygoing actress began her movie career with a small role in the 1946 movie “The Locket,” but she got her big break in the 1954 comedy “Sabrina,” starring Bogart and Audrey Hepburn.

In that movie, she played the fiancee of a character played by William Holden. Hyer would later write in her memoir that Bogart was helpful in scenes with her.

She reportedly once turned down a date request from a young Sen. John F. Kennedy and began acquir-ing more high-profile roles

during the 1950s.In 1951, Hyer married

director C. Ray Stahl, who directed “The Scarlet Spear,” which starred Hyer. The mar-riage ended in divorce three years later.

She was nominated for an Academy Award as best supporting actress for her role in the 1958 “Some Came Running,” starring Sinatra, Dean Martin and Shirley MacLaine.

The movie was based on a James Jones novel and brought her critical acclaim for her role as a school-teacher being wooed by writ-er and war veteran, played by Sinatra. Hyer lost the Oscar to Wendy Hiller for her role in “Separate Tables.”

Hyer would later say that loss devastated her.

After the Oscar nod, Hyer would star in a number of American and foreign films that garnered little attention. But she gain notice for her expensive taste thanks to a 1959 Life magazine photo feature highlighting her Pissarro painting and show-

ing her getting a massage dressed only in a towel. By the 1980s, Hyer found herself millions of dollars in debt to loan sharks.

In 1966, she married film producer Hal Wallis, who took her to New Mexico for the first time during the film-ing of “Red Sky at Morning.” Hyer remained married to

him until his death in 1986 and moved to Santa Fe short-ly after.

“This country casts a spell, and it never lets go,” she would later write about New Mexico.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reported that in her later years Hyer became reclusive, preferring to paint and hike.

WELCOME TO THE APPLE TREE SPOKANE

B y W i l l J o h n s o nNelson Star

Chris O’Gorman was walking his Russian mountain dog Boris along the Kootenay River on the Slocan Pool Trail Monday morning when he saw an over-turned boat circling in a back eddy.

“I could see a boat out there but I couldn’t quite hear what the voice was saying. I could hear that it was one syllable over and over again, and that caught my attention. That doesn’t sound like conversa-tion. I looked out and I was like is that boat okay? It was pretty far away on the other side of the Slocan Pool,” the 39-year-old South Slocan resident said.

Then the 12’ alum-inum boat pivoted with the current.

“I could see it was an overturned boat with somebody half on top of it. I hear him say ‘help, help, help.’ So I ran back toward the trailhead because I’ve got my canoe stashed in the bushes near the trailhead. I’m running and I’m thinking what am I going to do? I don’t have a lifejacket, I don’t have a paddle,” he said.

Then he spotted a “flattish sort of board stick” lying nearby and grabbed it. And after instructing Boris to wait on shore, O’Gorman pushed out into the current.

“The river’s raging right now. You know, white caps and swirl-ing. I had to cross the main current and it was pretty gnarly. I didn’t have a proper paddle to negotiate it. I was yelling at him the whole time say-ing, ‘I’m coming, hang on.’ I didn’t know if he could hear me because the current was so loud.”

Finally, O’Gorman reached the 84-year-old Glade resident.

“I could see at that point he’s got a lifejacket on. He’s an old guy, hanging on and it was starting to look like he was los-ing it. I said to him whatever you do, don’t flip me. I realized he probably didn’t have the strength to pull himself into the boat without endangering us. So I gave him my tow rope and started paddling to the other shore, the south shore.”

With the dead weight of the senior behind him, it took O’Gorman “10 to 15 minutes of givin’ ‘er” to reach safety. He was worried his makeshift paddle would snap before he could reach

the shore.“I was just dripping

in sweat. So overheat-ed. I was fighting the current,” he said.

When they reached the shore, O’Gorman had the man strip off his clothes and he rung them out. He started to prepare a fire. But after assuring that the man wasn’t experien-cing hypothermia, he decided to make the trek back across the river.

“I thought maybe the best thing is to load him up in my boat and take him across again. I’m exhausted at this point. Got him to sit right in the bottom so we’ll be low centre of gravity,” he said.

Crossing meant navigating the main current again, and this time O’Gorman was caught in a whirlpool.

“We started spin-ning in circles. It was kind of sketchy. I thought if he goes in again, he’s done.”

But this story has a happy ending, because shortly after they reached the shore

and O’Gorman drove his new friend home. He spoke to the man’s wife, told him to get her husband in a hot shower, to feed him soup and tea, and then he headed back down to the river to retrieve the man’s boat for him.

“I remember he was like `that’s it for fishing season. I think I’ll stick to golf’,” said O’Gorman, with a laugh.

Around that time, O’Gorman saw emer-gency vehicles.

“I saw two pass me. I think one was search and rescue with Sea-Doos on the back. I was like right, I guess I should call somebody,” he said.

Dog walkers had alerted emergency ser-vices when they saw the overturned boat with nobody in sight. The RCMP received the call at approxi-mately 11 a.m.

“I called them and I was like hey, just in case there’s a search going on, I got buddy safe. He was the only one there. It’s all good.”

O’Gorman was relieved to find out they were already retrieving the man’s boat and taking it to Glade.

“I was like great, I don’t have to go back into that river,” he said.

When asked how he felt after the ordeal,

O’Gorman smiled and shrugged. “It was pretty obvious at the time. You see a guy yelling for help out on the lake? I’m just glad I had a boat. If I hadn’t had a boat there was nothing I could’ve done. I’m just so thankful I had a boat there. It was a stroke of luck for everyone.”

And when pressed

about whether or not he was scared, O’Gorman laughed. “Once I got out into the current I realized how dangerous it was, you know? I felt vul-nerable not wearing a lifejacket.

“I’m a guy who always wears my life-jacket and I thought if I go down here, I’m done. Of course it’s

fresh in everyone’s mind after what hap-pened at Slocan Lake.”

O’Gorman person-ally knew one of the fourth youths that recently drowned. He said another friend drowned last year on the Skeena River. He’s happy that neither he nor the man he res-cued have been added to that list.

World Cup

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SSAO PAULO, Brazil - It’s almost time. The

day Brazilians have been anxiously waiting for is finally arriving.

Brazil plays Croatia tonight to get the home World Cup underway, beginning its quest for a sixth world title almost seven years after the nation was picked as host.

After so much talk about delays, protests and problems, fans at last are getting a chance to cheer for the national team on home soil in foot-ball’s showcase tournament.

If Brazil wins the opening game, the fact that the stadium in Sao Paulo isn’t even fully finished yet will quickly be forgotten. A loss, quite simply, is unthinkable for a nation whose identity is so closely linked to its football team.

Brazil hasn’t hosted the World Cup since 1950, when it endured a heartbreaking loss to Uruguay in the final. This time, everybody knows that only the title will be enough to please the home crowd.

“We are all eager to get started, we are just counting the days,” Brazil midfielder Ramires said Tuesday. “We know that the fans have con-fidence in our team and they are behind us. We have to do everything possible to try to win this World Cup. We know everybody is expecting us to do it.”

Boosted by the home crowd, Brazil is one of the main favourites to recapture the trophy won by Spain four years ago in South Africa. But the other usual World Cup contenders will be trying to spoil the party in the land of football, including Germany, Italy, Argentina and the Netherlands.

, runner-up in 2010.Brazil is trying to become the first nation to

win the World Cup at home since France did it in 1998. The Brazilians were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the last two tournaments, to France in 2006 and the Netherlands in 2010.

A festive World Cup atmosphere has taken over Brazil in the run-up to the tournament despite the country’s preparation problems and the threats of protests. Brazilians had been slow to get into the World Cup mood, but now streets are being painted with the green and yellow colours and local flags are being displayed on windows of homes across the country.

The crowd support is one of the biggest rea-sons coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has been saying loud and clear that Brazil is obligated to win the World Cup at home. Players also don’t hide that they believe Brazil is the main title favourite.

“We know that we will have the fans behind us, and together I think we have a great chance of reaching our final goal, which is to win the World Cup,” Brazil starting midfielder Luiz Gustavo said.

Brazilian fans had been questioning the national team before last year’s Confederations Cup, but the title in the warm-up tournament was enough to bring the fans back on board.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SPINEHURST, N.C. -

Adam Scott is trying to build a golf game that can travel to any golf course in the world for any tournament.

He can only hope it knows the way to

Pinehurst No. 2. Or any U.S. Open course, for that matter.

Scott goes into this U.S. Open as one of the favourites because of his game, his form and his world ranking. The Australian didn’t reach

No. 1 in the world by accident. He has won six times around the world in the last two years and really thrived in the majors.

He won the Masters last year for his first major. He could easily

have won the last two U.S. Opens. He was in the hunt at the PGA Championship last year at Oak Hill.

But the toughest test in golf?

Scott hasn’t broken 70 at the U.S. Open

in five years. He has missed the cut as often as he has made it - six times each. And in those six times he completed 72 holes, he has yet to finish under par. His best perform-ance as a tie for 15th.

“I’ve talked to you all about 10 years of playing pretty average, by my own expecta-tions in majors, and tried to improve that the last few years,” Scott said Wednesday. “And I think I’ve done a good job - but maybe not quite as good at the U.S. Open.”

Scott is riding some reasonably good momentum. In his first week at No. 1 in the world, he won at Colonial. A week later, he was tied for the lead at the Memorial with seven holes to play until he put one tee shot in the water and took two shots to get out of a bunker.

Even so, he has no complaints with his game.

Scott is among the best drivers in golf and has been for the last two years. That would seem to suit him well at a U.S. Open, where accuracy is always a premium. His putting comes and goes - not even the long putter has cured that incon-sistency. But the rest of his game is well-

rounded.“Maybe it’s coinci-

dence that I haven’t had my best stuff at a U.S. Open,” Scott said. “But I certainly feel like where my game is at now, and the past few years, I should be able to compete here. I’m trying to build a game that can play anywhere.”

World Cup group sChedule

FROM PAGE 10That tournament

also helped show that Brazil has a team capable of competing against the top football nations today. The vic-tory came in a final against world cham-pion Spain.

“The Confederations Cup allowed us to regain our confi-dence,” said Scolari, the coach when Brazil won its last world title

in 2002. “Now we have to repeat that during the World Cup.”

Brazil begins the tournament having won 15 of its last 16 matches, the only loss a 1-0 result at Switzerland in the first match after the Confederations Cup.

Brazil will start the World Cup with the same lineup that won the Confederations Cup, with 22-year-

old Barcelona striker Neymar leading the team.

Croatia, led by Real Madrid playmaker Luka Modric, will hope to pull off a monu-mental upset, but the team won’t be at full strength against the hosts.

Coach Niko Kovac won’t have forward Mario Mandzukic, who was red-carded in the team’s final qualifier, and experi-enced midfielder Niko Kranjcar, who had to

be dropped from the squad because of a late hamstring injury. Novac was already without defender Josip Simunic, who was banned for 10 games by FIFA for leading fans in a pro-Nazi chant after a qualifying match.

The high-profile opening match will be played at the troubled Itaquerao, the con-struction of which was delayed so badly that the roof won’t even be fully finished until after the tournament.

Dear Annie: I’ve known “Ted” all my life. About 10 years ago, I loaned him $1,000. He never repaid it, and I could really use that money now. Ted lives in a different city, and when I phone him, he refuses to discuss it.

In the past, I had given Ted money out-right, but this was absolutely a loan. I made sure he knew that, but I didn’t ask for a promissory note or any interest. If I hire a lawyer to sue him for the loan, I’d lose half the money paying the lawyer.

Ted’s mother once warned me not to loan money to friends. What can I do? -- Should Have Listened

Dear Should: You could try to retrieve the money by suing Ted in small-claims court. You generally don’t need an attorney to do this, but you are likely to lose the friendship perma-nently. You might want to warn Ted in advance that this is your intent

if he isn’t willing to dis-cuss the loan and reach an agreement.

Dear Annie: You get lots of letters from hus-bands or wives who are unhappy and asking, “What went wrong?” Maybe the trouble is that while they were planning a wedding they forgot to plan a marriage.

I performed my first marriage ceremony 60 years ago and have done several hundred since. Some were in large churches with fancy flowers, string quartets and an exqui-site reception. Some were in my living room with only the bride and groom in their Sunday clothes.

There is quite a dif-ference between a wed-ding and a marriage. A wedding is the civil and/or religious cer-emony that ends in the signing of a certifi-cate making the whole thing legal. A marriage is a covenant between two people who prom-ise to love, honor and cherish each other.

My advice to any couple planning the kind of wedding they will have is to first ask what kind of mar-riage they will have. -- Retired Methodist Minister in Texas

Dear Minister: It’s true that some couples are so focused on the trappings of a wed-ding that they don’t give enough thought to what comes after. And what comes after is meant to last a very long time.

Dear Annie: Your advice to “Upset Mom in USA” made me angry. She said her son was accused of stealing a ring from his cousin when he briefly stayed

at his aunt’s house.This son is a finan-

cially secure 32-year-old businessman, not a teenage boy bicycling around Europe. The missing ring is between him and his cousin. In addition to the possibil-ity that the niece sim-ply misplaced the ring, it could also be a setup.

The aunt called her nephew, not his moth-er. Mom has no place in this contretemps, yet you advised her to speak to her son when he returns, and even suggested she offer to split the cost of the ring. Why should Mom offer anything if her son is innocent? If she in any way admits that her son is at fault, it will poison the rela-tionship between her and her son. And if he did steal the ring, he should pay the full cost. Either way, it is not Mom’s place to fix it, and you should have said so. -- Annoyed at You

Dear Annoyed: Our concern, actually, was

not the son or the ring. It was the rela-tionship between the sisters. You are abso-lutely right that the son is responsible for working this out, and we should have said so. But we also know how difficult it is for a parent to stand by and

watch a family situa-tion deteriorate over such accusations. Even though the issue is between the cousins, we suspect Mom fears losing the affection of her sister, and that is where our advice was directed. (Although the idea that this might be

a setup did not occur to us. Heavens.)

Retrieve money through small claims court

Leisure

For Friday, June 13, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is the kind of day where a “what goes around comes around” vibe is very strong. Therefore, be aware of this. Be kind and gener-ous to everyone. (Ya think?) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be patient with oth-ers today, especially sib-lings, but most especially be patient about financial matters. Your patience will pay off; trust me. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This Full Moon energy is still strong and could cause you to be at odds with those who are closest to you. (Naturally, we only get angry at those we love.) Stay mellow. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You will have moments of deja vu, where people from your past -- espe-cially ex-partners and ex-spouses -- are back in your

life again. Consider this an opportunity to have peace-ful closure. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Focus as much as pos-sible on being efficient and productive today. And while you’re doing this, help oth-ers to be efficient and pro-ductive as well. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take every opportu-nity to be kind to children and young people today. It might present itself, or it might not. If it does, con-sider yourself lucky. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Value your relations with your mother or other female relatives today. Do what you can to show your appreciation. You won’t regret this. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You have a strong desire to talk to others today, because you want to enlighten them about

something. Be helpful if you can. It’s a good day to smooth over troubled waters. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Focus on financial mat-ters today. More than that, look for ways to be gener-ous to others. This might be big or small. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) The Moon is in your sign today, which brings

you good fortune. If you are kind and generous to others, your good fortune will continue! This is an infallible formula. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Seek out ways to enjoy peace and quiet today. You might want to meditate or do yoga or stretches on the floor. (That’s all I do.) Do something that makes you more peaceful and self-aware.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A conversation with a female could be signifi-cant today. Listen to what this person has to say. She might give you advice that will help you achieve your future goals. Who knows? YOU BORN TODAY You are a dreamer and seek-er. You have your heroes, and yet, ironically, people view you in heroic terms because you are so adven-

turesome. You are also imaginative and coura-geous, which is why you will attempt the impos-sible. Good news! This year might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big!

June is Brain Injury Awareness Month in the province, and for the first time the West Kootenay Brain Injury Association is highlighting Patrick Johansen’s paintings in an event at Waneta Plaza in Trail on Saturday from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. Johansen is a Trail man whose life changed forever on July 9, 22 years ago in a car accident. A the date of his accident approaches, Johansen said the day has always been like any other, but that could change next year. He and his girlfriend are considering having their wedding on that day and said, “Why not turn a bad into a good?”
