PRO-LIONS Gate Hospital candidates made a clean sweep
of the 1986 LGH board elections Wednesday night, assuring

the maintenance of current LGH abortion policies.

“lam incredibly relieved,’’ said
incumbent board chairman Hilary
Clark, “not for me, but for the
hospital. My concern all along has
been the possible take over of the
board by a single issue group that
would have destroyed the fabric of
life as we know it at the hospital.”

Of the 3,578 eligible North and
West Vancouver: Hospital Society
2,107 cast
ballots in this year’s election. In

pro-life challenger Louis Knoll,

Jim Warne was returned for his

man Hilary Clark...‘‘incredibly

Ewart said Thursday, ‘I'm a fit-
ue disappointed. But I don’t know
if the vote accurately reflects the
North Shore. The issue (abortion)
is just too important. We'll have to

run in the same way as, and
