OME YEARS ago, there used to be a
drive-in theatre in North Vancouver off
Pemberton Avenue. Too bad it’s gone
as it is a long way to other drive-ins out in
Burnaby, Surrey and Delta.
Today’s question is:

- “Would you like to see
a drive-in return to
North Vancouver?’

Mike Robertson
North Vancouver

Surrey and Delta are
too far away to go. lt
would be very convenient
to have a drive-in theatre
back on the North Shore.

Theresa Wild
\ North Vancouver

Yes. The drive-in
theatre is a fun place to go
with friends. 1 would like
to see someone take a
chance and set one up on
the North Shore.

with guns

RCMP IS investigating a
frightened North Vancouver
woman’s report that two
youths pointed handguns at
her late Thursday.

The woman reported the
youths, who were in separate
cars parked together at the
corner of Lions and
Belgrade, pointed the guns at
her at about 10 p.m.
Thursday: ~

The cars then drove away
from the scene. No shots

New WV group
looks for peace

‘*TO PROMOTE an
awareness in West Vancouver
of peace through world
nuclear disarmament from a
non-partisan perspective.’’

With that statement as its
credo, a group calling itself
the West Van Citizens for
Peace has been launched.

**We believe that ordinary
Canadians, concerned about
the arms race between the
super powers and desiring
that Canada should play a
strong peaceful role, can in
increasing numbers turn the
tide of government thought
and action,’’ a representative
of the group says.

INCIDENTS FROM
separate house parties in
“North and West Vancouver
last year resulted in fines for
women who appeared in
court this week.

The most significant of the
cases occurred in West Van
where police saw one of the
first charges laid under the
municipality’s anti-noise
bylaw upheld

Christopher Talbot, 18,
was found guilty of violating
the anti notse bylaw and fin
ed $500

THE BLOOD donor clinics
are back at Lions Gate
Hospital.

Sessions will be held Mon-
day and Tuesday as Lions

were fired. Police attended
but were unable to find the
Iwo.

According to the woman,
one of the two youths was
wearing a bandana over his
face.

Police are looking for the
two men, believed to be in
their late teens or early 20s.
One was driving a_red
Volkswagen Rabbit and the
other a large dark-colored
sedan.

Vol. I ° No. 12

The representative said it is
hoped that the group, which
currently has members rang-
ing in age from 18 to 80, will
grow substantially in time to
support their first action.

That will be participation
in the April 28 Peace Walk in
Vancouver which last year
drew more than 65,000
people.

police attempted to break up
a party and received no co-
operation from Talbot.

The anti-noise legislation,
adopted last year, is seen as
the department's prime tool
in the battle against parties.

Meanwhile in North Van-
couver, Robert Waterworth
was found guilty of obstruc-
ting a police officer and fined
$350.

The charges arose from an
August 12, 1983, house party
where Waterworth was
repeatedly ordered to leave
the area but kept returning

Crash Pad From
The Satellites |

I get a lot of calls from confused but well meaning readers who
want to know from whence all this grist for the copy mill
emanates. In plain english, that means they want to know how to
find our place. Its easy. Imagine that you're a spy satellite, drifting
high over the North Shore in your orbit.

Down in Cotton Country, Dept.

Now, you can see the 2nd Narrows Bridge from your vantage
point, and two sets of winking traffic lights on the road that leads
due West. That’s us! We're right at the light, on the southeast cor-
ner. Turn your head and you can see our sign. Or,
sider us kittycorner to that vast spangle of lights known as Park
& Tilford. Another landmark that tells you you're getting close is
Venice Bakery. Just follow your nose. Now, I know that Cotton
Drive isn't exactly the most famous street in the world, but its ac-
tually a part of Main St., which is an extension of East 3rd Street.
which ought to be a part of Marine Drive. | have considered ap-
plying to the powers that be to have this all made one street,
Macht Way. but changed my mind when | realized the nightmare
of confusion it would cause with the block numbers. and every
company and business would have to change their stationary.

Yet another landmark will be our new Canadian flag — once we

accused of raising the flag to celebrate the departure of a noted
