UNPRECEDENTED volumes of liquor are being

seized
Vancouver police.

And police think the
reason is not so much that
they are cracking down
harder but that more and
more people are turning to
booze - and are taking it with
them each time they go out
in the sun.

A spokesman comments:
“I would speculate it might
have something to do with
the economic climate.”

The feeling is that the
wave of drinking may be
attributable to the same
social pressures that are
being blamed for the up-
swing in child abuse cases
and crimes of violence.

That as times get tougher
many people would rather
seize a sunny day as an
opportunity to Hie out in the
sun drinking, and put their

problems behind them.
Last weekend police made
liquor seizures at

recreational areas
throughout the municipality.

At Cypress Park alone
they confiscated 1,000
bottles of beer over the two-
day period, as well as 25
litres of wine and _ four
bottles of hard liquor.

The park has become a
favorite watering hole for
young people lazing out in
the snow suntanning, in spite
of the fact that West Van
police have had roadblocks
set up there each sunny
weekend for the past few
weeks and that the lquor

seizures have been fully
publicized.
Last weekend, police

stopped an estimated 2,000
vehicles at the park gates

and inspected 310 of them in
their checks for alcohol.

It was a hectic weekend
for liquor checks throughout
the municipality. Seizures
were also made at Am-
bleside, Whytecliffe Park,
Sandy Cove and Lighthouse
Park and a police spokesman
concluded from the seizures:
“There is a definite increase
in the amount of alcohol
consumption.”

The same weekend also
saw the liquor stores at 220-

16th Street in West Van
broken into. The _ thief
smashed a window and

‘crawled through the hole

and though the break-in
triggered the burglar alarm
the thief still managed to
escape with nine 40-ounce
bottles of Bacardi white rum
worth a total of $148.05.
