had quit — two of them because
they were fed up with Ottawa. In
addition, party president Derek
Cave will leave soon. He’s tired,
he says.

The guy whose resignation
made the most waves was Chuck
Walker, who is also president of
the B.C. Lions. Walker hiked out
some months ago, it was revealed.

Hilarious though it may seem,
one of his plaints was the number
of shoes Mila Mulroney has.
(Which, you may recall, was only
slightly less than how many the
former first lady of the Philippines
rejoiced in, thus causing Brian’s
wife to be dubbed Mila Marcos.

More seriously, he said he
didn’t like party funds being used
for improvements made on 24
Sussex Drive. His contributions to
the party had been taken under
false pretences, he stated in his let-
ter of resignation, and he was
thinking of suing to get his money
back.

Mr. Walker now tells me his
reaction may have been: over-
emotional. ‘‘But,’’ he added,
“there are so many dumb things
going on, and who is in charge of
the barn?”

Man guilty
of theft

A 20-YEAR-OLD West Vancouver
man received a suspended sentence
and was placed on probation for
two years after he pleaded guilty
Thursday in Worth Vancouver
provincial court to two theft
charges.

Dean Michael. Hutchinson was
originally charged with theft and

possession of stolen property in -

connection with an Aug. 23 theft
of a marine radio telephone and a
camera case filled with assorted
camera equipment.

Hutchinson was also charged
with theft under $1,000 in connec-
tion with a Jan. 25 incident in
which cash was stolen from a
private citizen.

Appearing before Judge LK.
Shaw, Hutchinson pleaded guilty
to both theft charges. A stay of
proceedings was entered by the
Crown in Hutchinson’s possession
of stolen property charge.

The second disgusted board Where South Africa is concern-

member who quit was Valerie A.
Vopni.

“It doesn’t seem to matter a
damn who is doing what,’’ she
told me in reference to the doings
of the party's glorious tactics.

‘All that seems to matter is what .

is happening in Quebec and
Ontario.

“The system worked against us
(here in the West) when the
Liberals were in power,’’ she went
on, ‘and it will work against us in
the next election. Our MPs cannot
represent the West.’’

Mrs. Vopni is no separatist. But
she is ‘‘disillusioned with the
federal political process’ and may
have another go at local politics.

Sniffing around like a hungry
hound-dog, I talked to board
member Andre Danyliu, who
agreed that the Tory natives were
restless. On the positive side,
though, he thought that Meech
Lake and free trade would lift the
troops’ morale a bit.

He stated without any pro-
mpting from me, however, that a
lot of local Tories were ‘‘not too
thrilled” with the Canadian posi-
tion on South Africa. ‘‘It is

ed, Baloney and Clurk are mar-
ching one way, and scads of
thinking people the other. Kissing
black dictators while bashing our
kith and kin in that republic isn’t
all that popular, except with
dopes and dupes.

Remember how Joe sent a letter
to 30,000 selected Canadians, ask-
ing them to sign his silly ‘‘anti-
apartheid”’ register? It now turns
out that only 5,000 complied. The
remainder tossed his eppeal into
the slush-basket.

Mr. Cave is staying on as party
president until the new constituen-
cy boundary becomes official.
There will then be a fresh board.
He is leaving for personal reasons,
but did say there ‘‘have been a lot
of difficulties this past year."’

‘“‘Anything that smacks of
liberalism drives Capilano Tories
crazy,’’ he said. ‘‘But it’s not the
same across the country.”’

I beg to differ. The polls differ,
too.

All this unhappiness does not
bode well for Collins (Mary) and
Chuck Cook come the next elec-
tion. You don’t hold a fort with
demoralized troops.
