A similar writ is also likely
to be-- delivered:- on the
restaurant publication Dick |
MacLean’s Guide for
publication of an article by
Keate in the April 18 - May 2
edition. Lon

The article, titled The
Orenda Odyssey Part II, was -
subtitled “The
falsehoods and fabrications
of Karin Lind and George B.
_ Yocher as published by the

' Canadian Geographic and
MacLean’s Magazine.”

ACCOUNT DISPUTED

The article went on to
itemize and dispute certain
accounts by Tocher . and
Lind of the Orenda voyage,
ranging from the number of
trees Tocher had cut down
during his career as a logger
to the size of the tree that
was Carved into the canoe

_ and whether Tocher had

” dived into the water from the
canoe at Hawaii.on arrival or
‘during a re-run for the
cameras.

Tocher says his original
arrangement with Keate had
been that in return for Keate
finding financial sponsors for
the voyage he would be
given 15 per cent of any
income and the rights to
. write a book about the

adventure.

Tocher maintains that by
August his relationship with
Keate had soured to the
extent that it was dissolved.
“I refused to jump’ through
any more hoops for him,”'he
said.

Lind, who has issued the
writ with Tocher against
Keate, says: “We felt em-
barrassed and un-

comfortable with all his
publicity on radio. It (the
Orenda trip) was going to be
a joyous occasion, not
something to be hyped up for
little old ladies to'send in $5
contributions. Geordie was
trying to encourage in-
vestors, not contributions.”

Tocher maintains that
total income from the
Orenda adventure was about
$3,000, of which $1,000

came from radio station |

CKNW, $800 from
municipalities of West
Vancouver and North
Vancouver, contributions

from Tocher’s friends and

the rest
donations.

He says he offered Keate
his 15 per cent but it was not
accepted and that on
dissolution of their
arrangement told Keate he

. did not want him writing a

book or anything more about
the Orenda, Tocher or Lind.

This, say Tocher
Lind, is the p
writ for the alleged libel. The
offending article was at least
the third article Keate had
written about them since last
summer and Lind says:

“We just want him to stop |

doing this and never write
‘anything again about either
of us.”

Lind, who is an -an-
thropology~™ instructor at
.Capilano College, maintains

that while many people she -

has encountered have
become angry with Keate’s
comments, she fears the
articles may create doubts
about her integrity in the
minds of some of her
students, damaging her
professionally.

Mountie denies
occupants’ story |

FROM PAGE 1

He says ‘the police report
shows that she was not even
there when the incident took
piace but that her son was
and stood in front of the
door with his a folded,
refusing to cooperate.

He says Constable Grabb
radioed for assistance as the
man he was looking for “has
a rather colorful history”,
and answers Mrs. Brooks’
allegation that she was there
when the door was kicked in
by saying:

“It doesn’t make any sense
if she had the key and was
there at the time. The
Brooks, boy gave the usual
four-letter word and Grabb
kicked the door in and at no
time was there any mention
of Mrs. Brooks.

But he does agree with .

Mrs. Brooks that she was the
innocent party in her whole
affair and that the RCMP
will pay for the repair of her
door and door frame.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Brooks
is still angry and has even
brought City Mayor Jack
Loucks in on the dispute.

He has called to check the
damage and says: “I had a
look at the door and wasn’t
very happy about what had
happened.

“I think it was unfortunate
it happened but any one of
us under the same cir-
cumstances might have done
that.”
