Seatbelts blitz ‘unwarranted’

Dear Editor:

Your recent editorial
defending the roadside stop-
ping and examination of
_ motorists for possible seat-
belt offences is interesting,
but you appear to have over-
looked an important point.

It is edifying to note that
the pro-seatbelters and
1.C.B.C. are able to provide
irrefutable proof of the
hazards posed by non-users,
and it is readily accepted
that all reasonable measures
must be taken to improve
road safety. For I.C.B.C., a
tangible means of justifying
the present large scale ac-
uuvities by the police on the

roads of B.C. now becomes a
possibility; a reduction in the
auto insurance rates would
certainly convince me of the
need to accept constant
police harrassment.

We British Columbians
have the promise of a possi-
ble decrease in road injuries
and certainty of a steady in-
come into provincial coffers
through the medium of
monetary fines being levied
on offenders.

Within the space of one
week, I have been stopped
and examined on no fewer
than four occasions, with the
last incident involving the
first time experience of be-
ing pursued by a_ light-

flashing police car in West
Vancouver. My criminal ap-
pearance, J understand,
stems from the fact that |
habitually use only the lap
Strap fitted to my car, with
the other paraphernalia be-
ing stowed on hooks provid-
ed by the manufacturer. En-
thusiastic police officers |
can understand, but I cannot
countenance a campaign
which has repeatedly
challenged my privilege of
legally using the roads of
B.C. without unwarranted
interference.

Certainly, | am aware that
other countries mount
similar campaigns. Several
police states have perfected

Dr. Alfred Bayne was a
champion of youth, too

Dear Editor:

It ts sad that, too often, it
is only with a person's pass-
ing that we take time to
recall all of the good he or
she has done. I wish, with
respect, to add a few words
about a very special person:
Dr. Alfred Bayne.

Here was a man whose
presence touched so many.
He worked with untiring
dedication for his fellow
senior citizens and, in fact,
for our entire community.

His efforts were never for
personal gain. In our many
years of friendship I witness-
ed him = striving towards

many goals and never did he
have anything but kind
words for all the people he
dealt with, even if they were
in Opposition.

Dr. Bayne’s life went out
to more than just seniors,
however, as he cared a great
deal for young people.

I shall always remember,
during my first participaton
in a civic election, taking up
the West Vancouver tradi-
tion of standing at the foot of
the Lions Gate Bridge.

There in the pouring rain
we stood, Dr. Bayne at 88
and myself. He was there to
show support, but that sup-

port wasn't just for me; it
was extended to all young
people. He had confidence
in them and he would always
be there to add help and ad-
vice. This was an encourag-
ment and his life was an ex-
ample.

While we join with his lov-
ing wife Vi and their family
in mourning his passing,
there is some comfort in
knowing that the memories
of this outstanding man and
the example which he set
Shall live on with us.

Name Centre for Dr. Bayne

Dear Editor:

The North Shore said
good-bye to Alf Bayne on
May 25. Since he died many
written and verbal bouquets
have been accepted and ap-
preciated by his family and
his friends.

All very heartfelt. all very
sincerely phrased == and
meant. But words are forgot-

(en, papers” are
memory dims.
Therefore | intend to ask
the mayor and council of
West Vancouver to name
the Semors Activity Centre
the Dr. Alfred Bayne Semors
Acuvity Centre. No one
worked harder to fund that
centre, no one cared more
about his fellow citizens His

muslaid,

name on that centre would
be the ultimate,
withering bouquet.
