Hill tt Uii 1 "if -ftf Trevor LAUTENS These days those recent days, before last night's rain have been the glad, sad days. They were the mirror Image of the first days of spring. They were warm and soft and, Just as in April, the morning mists clung stubbornly around the mountains until well after morning was past, defying the pale sun.

But such days, like a false pregnancy, bring forth no life. Their promise is empty. The pantheon of gods who run the world throws each one at us as a beautiful lie. It is pleasant to believe such lies. Even when we know that the children of April's earth, so recently the green generation, is about to become the generation of ashes.

Ashes some nights recently there was an ashen glow at dusk over Burrard Inlet. Its light was weird and dead. These were the days of vast apocalyptic sunsets. They were literate sunsets. They had read Dylan Thomas: "Do not go gentle into that good night Rage, rage against the dying of the light." They had read him, and they believed him.

These days seemed to be the cinders of summer. The colors of their sunsets were burnt colors. They departed, leaving orange moons. These were the days of sunsets that predict each man's" death. Two women of many years and great dignity came down to see the sunset at Jericho Beach the other night, as if fascinated by intimations of their own mortality.

They stood and watched, and seemed to be not looking at the sunset but part of it. The beach the same beach that a few weeks ago rocked to The Monkeys and Petula Clark and Bob Dylan was motionless, except for a youth doing beadstands. He was very serious about it. A wild and surrealistic touch. Then the women, clasping each other with a sunset clasp, slowly walked away.

The citizen stood up out of the motionlessness that had hidden him, and reflected on the ghost of beaches past. There was Venice's Lido, and St. Raphael, and a lonely one called Maddeket, and another where a certain Dark Lady wept. These thoughts were not orderly, as writers wish them to be, but were as renegade and untranslatable as the sunset itself. The citizen remembered a totally unbelievable idea of Picasso's, as recorded by one of his mistresses: "Everything exists in limited quantities especially happiness.

If a love is to come into being, it is all written down somewhere, and also its duration and content." In September, this can be believed. bishop world Brian Kent Photos answered questions ranging from modern morals to affairs, then left by plane for Prince George visit. world's 40 million Anglicans during press conference in Kamloops Thursday.

"We must love those we are inclined to dislike, and those of other nations, creeds, and colors who at first may seem uncongenial to us," the Most Rev. Dr. Michael Ramsey said in. a sermon preached at the Anglican Church of St." Michael and All Angels. The Archbishop expressed optimism for the future of Christian unity.

"While the divisions in Christendom are painful, awful, and scandalous, we are privileged to be living in a time when the most powerful trends are trends to unity," he said. He had found impressive evidence both in Canada and elsewhere in the world, he said, that people everywhere were acting on the principles of mutual love and respect laid down in a declaration signed by him and the Pope. "The Anglican Church in Canada has given great help and leadership in finding new ways of helping to achieve our goal," be said. The Archbishop and Mrs. Ramsey arrived here at 6.20 o.m.

from Kamloops on a regular Canadian Pacific Airlines flight. He and his party were greeted at the airport by Rev. E. D. Powell, rector of St.

Michael and All Angels, and immediately went to the home of Hubert King. OC. chancellor of the doicese of Cariboo, for dinner. A congregation of more than sex leads to serious sociological problems. "Pre marital relationships tend to be irresponsible," he said.

Fisk Urges Car Licence Laws Check Formation of a committee to examine motor vehicle regulations allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to obtain drivers' licences was recommended today by a senior police official. Deputy chief constable John Fisk said he is not satisfied a 16-year-old is prepared or capable to accept the responsibilities of driving. "There are possibly some exceptions, but I feel we should take a close look at the policy of granting licences at 16," he said. Fisk made the comments in supporting a suggestion by Staff Inspector Dan Brown that the minimum age limit to obtain a driver's licence be raised to 18. Mitzi's 8:15 show.

It was big night for the Riviera, which had lured Mitzi away from the Flamingo, where she regularly appeared on earlier Vegas dates. It was also the hotel's 11th anniversary and it marked the opening of a 12-storey, 220-room, new wing attached to what was the first and once the "only" high-rise hotel in this funny little piece of outer space. It has to be outer space because there can't be anything on earth quite like Las Vegas. But that's another column or so. One other thing was a little bit different than the Vancouver opening.

At the end of her show Mitzi does a number that allows her to introduce friends and stars around the room. A few of the drop-ins she introduced here were Carolyn Jones, Jan Murray, June Ally-son, Betty Grable and Yin-cente Mennelli, whose daughter Lisa is down The Strip at the Sahara with Buddy Hack-ett. All the same, it was a big kick to sit In that packed rocm full of the opening night mob who were seeing this show for the very first time, 400 jammed the church for the service that followed, many standing in the aisles. Among those who accompanied the Archbishop to the service was the Rt. Rev.

Fergus O'Grady, Roman Catholic bishop of the Archdiocese of Prince Rupert. One of the highlights of the service in the starkly simple A- frame church was the dedication by the. Archbishop of a new bishop's chair. After the service the Arch bishop chatted with members of the church choir before going on to a coffee party for nearly 500 people at the Inn of the North. A broad grin wreathed the face of the 61-year-old primate when he was presented with a bearskin rug by Alderman Elroy Garden, on behalf of the mayor and city council.

"I am overwhelmed by this wonderful animal," the Archbishop said from behind a lectern on which the skin was draped. "I gather it is sometimes rather cold here, when this sort of thing comes in handy." At Quesnel today, more than 1,000 school children gave the Archbishop a thunderous welcome when he arrived in the settlement. Their enthusiasm was redoubled when he told them he had been asked to announce they would have the rest of the day off. The archbishop and Mrs. Ramsey, left here by car early this morning.

club attraction in local history. I've always been curious about the claim that these "break-in" shows are just the way they are supposed to be presented in Las Vegas. It was the same: dance step for dance step, word for word, song for song, and number for number. The only thing different was the opening night crowd, which was larger. They say they can seat 900 people in the Riviera's Versailles Room.

They tried for 950. I bad Groucho Marx in my right-hand pocket, Danny Kaye's producer in my left-hand pocket, and somebody's soup down the back of my neck. The had -started forming around the entrance at six in order to beg or bribe a cadre of maitre d's for the privilege of paying anywhere from $7.50 (for a chow mein plate) to nine bucks a head for dinner and a chance to see FREED PUPILS PICK APPLES Sun Staff Reporter KELOWNA i i I school students were dismissed from their classrooms Thursday to pick apples in the orchard area 20 miles north of here. Some 50 Grade 10, 11 and 12 students of the Winfield high school were to have continued picking today but a thunderstorm sent them back to classes. Only serious picker shortage was in the Winfield area, although some are still needed in the Oyama and Kelowna districts.

A school official said the students can earn up to $20 a day picking fruit. how accidents happen in the kitchen. A man and wife were shown overloading electrical outlets, failing to remove objects such as roller skates from the floor and attempting to remove a piece of toast from the toaster with scissors. Members of the Vancouver city police dog squad put dogs through their paces in the school tennis courts. Belcher later said the turnout at the conference was disappointing.

"People are apathetic towards safety," he said. she do?" And still somebody else replied, "Who cares?" It was very high-type conversation. Said hello to Stan Getz while he and Buddy Lester agreed they both had to get back to Vancouver to steal some more records from Bob Smith's jazz collection. The party started to break up about four thirty but I'd started to break up much earlier. It suddenly dawned on me through the smoke and the haze that it was now Thursday and I hadn't been to bed since Tuesday noon.

At that point Mitzi and Jack came along and, ignoring the large plates of goodies around the room, announced, 'm we're going to eat." Which is the reason we were in the Sands Hotel around six eating Chinese food. One of the headwaiters came over and said to Jan Murray, "I stay up every day just to watch your TV show." When the waiter walked away Murray shrugged and said, "How do like that he has to stay up to watch a daytime TV show. It could only happen in Las Vegas." He's so right. driving offenders. Staff inspector Dan Brown told 75 persons at a conference on safety that drivers in the 16 to 18 age group are among the most irresponsible on the roads.

"Teen-agers 1 't be allowed to drive until they are 18," he said. He said statistics show that 16-to-18-year-olds have more accidents than people in any other age group. He said courts should not hesitate to impose stiffer penalties on youthful offenders. STATUS SYMBOL "Among teen-agers, the car is a status symbol," he said. "One of the best means of enforcement is taking away the status symbol," he said.

"They should have their licences taken away." Brown's comments came dur ing a panel discussion at the end of the day-long conference, sponsored by the Vancouver Parent-Teacher Association and the Vancouver Traffic and Safety Council, at John Oliver High School, Forty-first and Fraser. Panel member Bob Malkin, VTSC director, told the meeting of a warning by California psychiatrist Dr. Arnold Friesen that emotional instability behind a steering wheel can lead to an accident. Malkin told the mainly adult JAYNE MANSFIELD night in Las Vegas and to watch them reacting in much the same way as the folks back home. The women oohed and awed at the gowns, and the whole place hushed when Mitzi switched them on with a number In which she group that parents have a responsibility to see their children are taught to drive by a recognized driving school.

"They must not be taught in some haphazard manner," he said. INTEREST LOW VTSC president Pat Belcher said public interest in safety problems is low. "Safety is a difficult commodity to sell," he said. "The safety council is short of funds and staff." Belcher said driver training should be included in the high school curriculum. "If we allow a teen-ager to drive at 16, he should get his training through an accredited driving school," he said.

"I can't teach my youngsters to drive it's a professional's job." Several high school students and members of the Vagabond's Drama Club presented a 15-minute court-room skit. Earlier in the day, Vancouver city police constahles Fred Ells and Bob McDonald showed teenagers and adults how to check safety points on bicycles. SKIT PRESENTED Capt. Jim McBeth of the Vancouver fire department, showed the group through a skit plays a 10-year-old kid who is rich but unloved. They laughed and cheered in all the same places, and the built-in trick mike she uses in part of the show snapped, crackled and popped, just as it did at the Cave.

Still later, after the second show, Mitzi threw a small party for several hundred friends and a bunch of the other acts. Some of the details are a little hazy because the Cave's Bob Mitten and his wife, Marion, who had come over from L.A. for the opening they'd been to see Eartha Kitt open at the Century Plaza the night before and I made a few other shows. But I remember large-eyed Lisa Mennelli and Helen O'Connell complimenting each other on the way they sang. Buddy Lester, another Cave regular, and Shecky Green traded wit and Jayne Mansfield tottered in, clutching her bosom and a chinchilla stole.

Several times during the evening she seemed to fall out of her dress. Somebody mentioned that she was playing at another Strip hotel and somebody else asked, "What does Robbery Reported John Newman, 224 Fourth Avenue, New Westminster, told police two men jumped him in the washroom of the Broadway Hotel, 100 East Hastings, about 7 p.m. Thursday and robbed him of $24. Sex Only Standard Young people seeking a sexu al standard should follow the basic principle that sex belongs only in marriage, a church conference panel decided Thursday night. "Only sex with marital fidelity gives a secure basis for marriage, family, and the de velopment of the individual," American sociologist and author Dr.

Evelyn Duvall told the interdenominational B.C. Conference on Church and Family, B.C. Minister of Highways Rev. Phil Gaglardi and Sun reporter and author Mrs Simma Holt, members of a reaction panel, agreed with the conclusions in Dr. Duvall's thesis, entitled The Search for Sexual Morality Today.

SOCIAL CHANGE "Young people today are emerging from childhood in a period of vast social change," said Dr. Duvall. "They are encouraged to express and develop in their own ways, and are re-examining sexual standards. "Men and women are changing in their relationships with each other, men now enjoy their wives more as companions and wish to be at home with their families and enjoy their children, much different than the family relationships of 30 years ago." "A continuing high rate of Illegitimacy, despite contraceptives; increasing young marriages, despite the odds against them; a high rate of venereal disease, despite medical advances; and a very large increase in abortions," she said. "Young people must examine the new sexual standards that are emerging and decide which; one they prefer.

WASSERMAN "But most people are family-oriented, dream of wife and children long before marriage, and know that husband and wife 'find' themselves in their most intimate moments as co-creators before God. "And if sex is kept within marriage, the partners are free to love others widely and fully without sex and develop as individuals." Vancouver psychiatrist Dr. Bennett Wong, the third member of the panel addressing the audience of 1,400 people at St. Andrew's esley United Church, was the only speaker to disagree with Dr. Duvall.

"I would like to believe we are a marriage-minded, family-conscious society, but I can't," he said. "If we were, we wouldn't have these problems. "Today's youth is not going to return to the old morality of Dr. Duvall new morality, with the emphasis on the individual to make decisions himself with understanding and responsibility, is here to stay." OLD MORALITY Mrs. Holt said that 'new morality' is simply a term thought up as an excuse for people to do what they want to do.

Dr. Duvall expounds an old morality, but the problem isi how to convince the young she is right." Rev. Gaglardi advised teen agers to be careful. "Behave yourself marriage; is the proper place tor sexual activity," he said. Dr.

Sylvanus Duvall, professor. of social science and religion; from Chicago, told another ses-j sion of tne conierence at Shaugbnessy United 1550 West Thirty-third, that easy! LAS VEGAS Some people get up in the morning and go to work. And then there's yours truly, who forgot to go to bed one morning this week and wound up in Las Vegas. It all started quite casually when the phone rang the other day and my friend Jack Bean, who is Mitzi Gaynor's husband, suggested: "C'mon down and see the opening at the Riviera. After all, it's the show we broke in at the Cave, so you can get a local angle." So I staggered out to the airport and hopped the 6:55 a.m.

flight south and here I am. That's how we economy-class setters do things. It's been sort of wild, I'll tell you. As a matter of passing interest you'll recall that Mitzi brought her show into Vancouver for an engagement of one week that stretched to four and played to more people than any other night.
