 August 1966 Page 1 OCEAN FALLS ON TV

I do not know if CZ paid for the recent TV program "Salute to Ocean Falls" - they sure didn't bust the piggy bank on the Ocean Falls part of the program. If there is a next time lets make it a salute to Ocean Falls and not a CZ advertisement. A program regarding the sporting activities of this town could fill an hour by itself let alone anything else.

August 1966 Page 2 Burke scholarship goes to Ocean Falls lovely The only daughter of an Ocean Falls member of the IBPS & PMW has won the John P. Burke scholarship for the area. She is 18 year old Dorothy Jane Moser, daughter of Peter Moser who is employed as a heavy duty mechanic with CZCL in Ocean Falls. The scholarship is worth $500. Miss Moser recently graduated form Gladstone High School in Vancouver and intends to study at University of British Columbia.

August 1966 page 5 NEWS & VIEWS by Alex Jack It appears there is no end to the number of complaints regarding the prices and quality of meat and groceries sold by the local Hudson's Bay Co. It is surprising that the "higher ups" of this store fail to recognize the discontent among the customers and make an effort to keep these same people happy.

Safety Afloat The local management report encourages us all to go carefully with their botas. I say the biggest hazard is the condition of the waterways. Ever been up to Link Lake. CZ should clean this up before publishing anything about safe boating.

Interest While both Local Unions here voted in favor of accepting the conciliation officers report, the turnout of the membership of both locals was very disappointing.
