College professor wins big in 6/49 lottery PERSISTENCE PAID off for a Capilano College instructor who played the same set of 6/49 lottery humbers off and on for nearly 10 years. She matched five numbers plus the bonus on the March 21 draw and won $67,826. Julie Southerst of West Van- couver didn’t remember to buy her winning ticket until shortly before the 5 p.m. cutoff time on the day of the draw. She’s glad she did because when she watched the 6/49 draw on television that night it was a case of gocd news that just kept getting better. “I was happy when I matched three numbers. Then I missed the fourth,’’ said Southerst, ‘‘I ghought, ‘Well, at least I have But then she matched the fifth number drawn, the sixth and fi- nally the bonus number. She telephoned the nearest 7- Eleven store to find out how much her prize was worth, but they were unable to tell her that evening. “I never got to sleep until 3 a.m. I called family and friends,” said Southerst. She found out how much she had won the next morning. She how plans to pay off a few bills and is thinking about buying a new car, perhaps a convertible. Southerst also plans to share her good fortune with her two children, Mark, 23, and Kim, 22. Southerst purchased her win- ning ticket at Dundarave Mar- tinizing. While she stepped for- ward to claim her prize, two win- ning 6/49 tickets sold recently in the Lower Mainland, and worth $1.1 million and $746,750 respec- tively, remain unclaimed. Winning ticket holders have one year from the draw date to claim a prize. March has been a good month for other West Vancouver lottery players. George Forster and a group of seven friends matched five numbers plus the bonus on the March 7 BC/49 draw. And because they played a JULIE SOUTHERST Combo ticket their total winnings increased from $50,000 to a total of $53,400. Meanwhile, Synnove Guinan won her prize the instant way when she found three Aces on a Joker's Wild ticket for the top prize of $10,000. Guinan, a retired bookkeeper, plans to fly her two grandchildren out from Ottawa for a visit. W. Van Cancer Society selects chairman SALLY SAPINSKY, a long-time Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) volunteer, returns to the West Vancouver unit as honorary chairman of the 1992 spring cam- paign, which runs to Thursday, April 30. Sapinsky first became involved with the scciety nine years ago when she was a canvasser during the April campaign. She became the West Vancouver unit’s fund- raising vice-chairman in 1987 and chairman in 1988. After her stint as fundraising chairman — during which time she took six months to single- handedly compile ali the canvass- ing route maps — she took on the reponsibility for organizing and chairing the North Shore Jail ’n Bail for two years, which raised a total of $132,000. Following that accomplishment Sapinsky became the district fundraising chairman, which in- volved overseeing all the cam- paigns in the Greater Vancouver Regiona! District (GVRD) and representing the GVRD at the provincial level. A self-proclaimed ‘‘professional volunteer” with extensive experi- ence, Sapinsky has a soft spot for cancer society volunteers. ‘‘Their loyalty is what has struck me most about the CCS volunteers,’’ she said. ‘‘Canvassers, captains and zone managers keep volunteering year after year without any hesita- Sapinsky was rather surprised and touched when asked to be honorary chairman of the 1992 campaign. The irony of it is that she was the one who created the position to develop a higher profile for the campaign and also as a way of giving back to those who have given CCS so much.
