BELATED CON-
GRATULATIONS to West
Van resident and
photographer extraor-
dinaire, Derik Murray.

Just one week ago, Derik was
back in Toronto at the Oatario
Science Centre for a celebratory
and festive evening at Canada’s
most prestigious photography and
illustration show and competition,
the CAPIC National Show.

A panel of international judges
selected the nation’s finest im-
agery by awarding one gold, one
silver and three bronzes in six
categories. The good news is that
Derik was presented with the gold
medal for his black-and-white
shot produced by B.C.’s Workers’
Compensation Board.

Not only did he win the top
award, he also won two of the
three bronze awards.

Derik and his wife, Marthe
Love, are famous for their food
photography. They're also the
producers of the colorful Expo
book and the just-completed
Burnaby Centennial book called

are gaining more fans every day.

By Friday, May 8, Graham an-
ticipates that they will welcome
their 50,000th passenger! They
won't know until that day which
terminal will greet the fortunate
traveller, but they do know that it
will be someone sailing on the
2:30 or 5:30 afternoon sailings.

To celebrate this milestone, the
lucky 50,000th passenger will
receive a year’s worth of travel or
52 round trips between Vancouver
and Victoria on the Royal Sealink
Express at a value of some $3,500.

And yes indeed that was West
Van’s own Terry David Mulligan
on the Royal Sealink last week.
He was on board taping a feature
for his TV program...

Coming up shortly is the first
Firefighters Ball in 20 years. It’s
going to be held at the Hotel
Vancouver and co-hosted by the
Vancouver Fire Department
(VFD) Band, along with Van-
couver’s honorary fire chief, B.C.
Lions owner and magazine cover
stud muffin Murray Pezim. The
Pez will be there with all those
good-looking VFD Calendar boys
plus members of the B.C. Lions.
There will be dining, dancing,
entertainment, a benefit casino
and fabulous door prizes.

It was way back in 1886 that
the First Firemen’s Bail was held
in Gold’s Hall on Cordova and
even then it was a fundraiser. The
money went to buy uniforms and
badges.

Next Saturday, May 2, at the
Hotel Vancouver, guests will be
entertained by North Van’s
masterful Rick Honey, who will
act as emcee for the gala affair.
There’ll be a strolling string
quartet, an a cappella quartet of
firefighters caitled Hot Line, and
the danceable music of the 14-
piece orchestra Tuxedo Junction.

As well, there wil! be lots and
fots of prizes, like a Caribbean
cruise for two. air fare and one
week’s acco. ‘ation in Hawaii,

a trip anywhere in Air B.C.’s
world and a weekend getaway at
the Hotel Vancouver.

The cost for this festive affair is
only $75. That’s a bargain these
days! And the cause is so worthy,
too. The black-tie evening is to
raise funds for Vancouver General
Hospital’s Burn Unit and to help
cover the band’s travel expenses in
spreading the good word about
the number one fire department in
all of Canada and the top one of
three in North America...

where Wayne Newton was open-

Wayne has a new album out,
Moods and Moments, that in-
cludes a tune called The Letter.

it's based cn a note that Elvis
Presley wrote in a hotel room
which was found discarded in a
waste basket. The song is very
touching and just may hit the
charts.

They also went to see Debbie
Reynolds at the Dunes and were

invited to her birthday party that
featured champagne and birthday
cake. The cake was sparkling with
an unbelievable 60 candles! And
Fran said Debbie is such a delight.

The Shorts rounded off their
trip by taking in the Martin and

Ed Sullivan days of TV.

And don’t forget that Movie
