JOY TELLS ALL

IT CERTAINLY was a
grand night for the firefight-
‘ers and the Vancouver
Firefighter’s Band Saturday
night at the Hotel Vancouver
as they celebrated their 75th
annual Firefighters Ball.

Thanks to the dedicated hard
work by the ball committee, headed
by Bob Hollier, the evening was a
complete sell-out with more than
90C dressy guests! Rick Honey

_ was emcee and the special guests
that evening were the Minister of
Employment and Investment the
Honorable Glenn Clark; Mayor
Philip Owen and his wife, Brita;
AND Honorary Fire Chief Murray
Pezim, just back from his business
headquarters in Scottsdale and now
home to stay. He looked healthier,
too! Probably because he’s just quit
smoking after 51 years and
undoubtedly at the urging of his
new blonde lady, Michelle
Rockhill. ,

Vancouver’s first Honorary Fire

. Chief, Simma Holt wasn’t at the

: ball. She was out of town on busi-

ness. But the distaff side was well
represented by Vancouver’s first
female firefighter, Cara Goose.

(And no, they don’t call her “moth-
r”.) Pd known that Vancouver had

a female firefighter for several

months but decided to go along
with the VFD in keeping a low pro-
file on her. ...

Safeway’s Don Bell was ulso on
hand as the donor of the adorable
stuffed dalmatian puppies that dec-
orated the tables. They were auc-
tioned off to the highest bidder at
each table. The last of the red-hot
lovers. a tithe formerly held by the
now-married Herb Capozzi, Bazil
Pantages was there looking as
tanned as ever. Herb and his red
taffeta-ed Alixandra were waltzing
around the floor.

West Van's Harvey Gould and
his grand-daughter. Rachel, made u
handsome couple. Rachel was real-
ly enjoving the party, She was cele-
brating her 20th birthday ... WED
union head Dave Mitchell and his
wife Mary were proudly showing
off photos of their litle son, Sam,
who's now 14 months old and wis
born just prior to last year’s dinner
dance. Also, upstairs in their hotel
room before they came down to the
gala do, Bob and Glenna Hollier
were displaying their little three-
month old baby son, Nathan, their
first heir to the family fortune who
was all decked out in a teeny tuxe-
do. No fund-raising total as yet but
it certainly was a very successful
event, especially for the Burn
Unit...

Jovial Harvey Young had his
car towed the other night and he
was delighted about it. How’s that
for a twist!

Seems that Harvey lent his
absolutely mint condition 1926
Model T roadster pick-up to the
Rotary Club of Vancouver for use
at their annual Vancouver
President's Balf at Mark
Andrew’s Hyatt Regency for oul-
going president, Harvie Malcolm.
With the kind of drivers we have on
our streets, Harvey was a litile ner-
vous about driving the car. So he
asked Drake’s Towing for the price
for their special towing service.
That’s when Tom English of
Drake’s Towing astonished Harvey
and waived the charges in recogni-
tion of Rotary’s community activi-
ties and towed the truck in its “best
black tires” on the back of Drake’s
special rig to the event. Kudos to
Drake Towing for their community
spirit! P.S. If you want a collector’s
item, the 1926 Model T with hand-
carved wooden wheels is for sale
and the number is 327-104...

ence shopping at its finest.

ty kitchen products from around the
