“The court order came

Coat of arms for N. V. Ga

North Vancouver City will
get its own coat of arms by
next May — but only if the
College of
England approves.

City council voted
Monday night to approve a
draft design for the coat of
arms which incorporates a
sailing ship, two lions, a
bear, a salmon and a grouse.
Beneath the shield- is the
motto “Lion of the North.”

North Vancouver City had

Originally decided to hold a
contest to come up with
ideas for a coat of arms in
time for next year's 75th
anniversary celebrations.
But the municipal strike
prevented people from going
to the library to get contest
ideas, council was told by
Robert Watt, a member of
the committee which
designed the coat of arms.
. Watt said the committee,
which also included Mayor
Jack Loucks and City Clerk
Bob Watson, decided to
cancel the contest because
“time is of the essence” in
getting the design approved
in time for next year's
ceremony.

The design still has to pass
the expert scrutiny of the

official coats of arms, Watt
told council.

Council members only had
a few quibbles about the
design.

“The ship looks more like
the Mayflower,” = said
Alderman Gary Payne. “The
Mayflower would never have
come here.”

“The lions mystified my
wife,” Frank Marcino
remarked. ‘“‘Are they

the kind of sailing ship that
would have been seen here
in the- 19th century and the
lions’ would be clearly
defined as mountain lions.

The tions represent the
mountains of the same
name, he said. The ship, the
animals and other aspects of
the shield stand for various
geographical, natural,
commercial. industrial and
historical aspects of the City.

The design also includes
the tentative official colors
of North Vancouver City —
blue and white, representing
the mountains and the sea,
