The price of a stamp would jump from 17¢ to 30¢ effective January 1, 1982. Today’s question is: ‘‘What do you think of the postal rate increase?” _ .Bea Christie North Vancouver I feel that the proposed increase is too high. I have been reasonably happy with the postal service in. the past. As usual, it will be the elderly who will be hit the hardest by the increase. Bill Donaldson North Vancouver With the new high rates, it would be nice to have improved service, but I doubt there will be any change at all. Darlene Morgan Delta, B.C.

Multiple sclerosis victim Tracy Benson was at Grand Boulevard near 12th street at 10:30 p.m., on one of the walks she takes each day when she was jumped from behind by four youths. The assault left her un- conscious and with several broken ribs and her at- tackers threw her crutches up ino a tree. At News press time the woman was still in Lions Gate Hospital, where her condition was described as satisfactory. RCMP say she was on one of the walks which she takes three or four times every day because her condition requires regular exercise to prevent her limbs from stiffening up. - They are appealing for anyone who may have seen the attack or the group of youths to contact their North Van detachment at 985- 1311.
