FOR INFORMATION RE: EXCURSION FARES HOTELS -U-DRIVES FAMILY PLAN TRAVEL RENO BUS TOURS CLOVF.RDAIJs TRAVEL gun Pilots of private aircraft who. carry rifles or shotguns in their planes must obtain a firearms licence even though the guns are intended solely for survival if the plane is downed in the wild. 1 A pilot who did not have the necessary permit when he was checked at the Fort Langley seaplane base after a trip from Port Hardy was fined the minimum sum of $10 in Langley provincial court last Thursday.

-In convicting Myran Dale Alfred Olson, 36 years, of Langley, Judge Hugh Ellis said he sympathized with Olson but told him, there is no way out of your obligation to get a -permit. Olson had advanced' several arguments he did ndT have to get a permit including the submission that his plane was his property? within the meaning of the Act and therefore a permit was not necessary. YG RAVEL SALES Hrrrnrg rfAAfc RADIO CONTROLLED LANGLEY PHONE 534-6955 Judge Ellis ruled, however, that the word property meant real (immoveable property, although the section of the Act read to court did not use the narrower definition. In any case, evidence was given that the gun was taken out of the plane at one point. The gun, for which Olson had no licence August 19th, was a .22 Savage shotgun rifle.

He said he kept it strictly for survival. The defendant admitted' he had obtained a licence for the gun in Alberta but that licence had expired.

He suggested that, in 1965 when there was a hgavy fall of, snow, a person who should have been put in another grave went into the Chadsey grave by mistake.

Town officials are checking graves and cemetery records. Meantime, Mr. Chadsey is in another grave. Carl Hessay held show i of art work Carl Hessay, a well known local artist, held a one man show at Heritage House Galley last weekend beginning on October 12th. Carl was born in Shanghai, China, and at a very early, age he developed an aptitude for the arts.

He was chosen to study at the academy of the ants in-Paris and then went to Dresden, Germany, for another four years. He spent many years at sea with $ears of military experience in the Spanish Civil War and World War Two. Even at this period his paintings were pur -chased by collectors.

Moved by mayoralty candidate Aid.

Ron Ross and seconded by Aid. Jim-f Karpoff, the motion came after Mayor Bill Vander Zalm and Aid. Bill Vogel had. left chambers to catch a ferry to Victoria for meetings on Wednesday with government officials. 1 Ross moved to rescind on the basis of a request from the South Surrey Plan Committee.

His motion received no discussion and no debate. Aid. Ron Ross and Aid. Ed McKitka switched their votes from one week ago to tip the balance in favor of stopping the marina plan. Reporting from THE HANEY GAZETTE: Residents of II addresses on Alouette Rd.
