Man
found
thieves

A West Vancouver man
returned to his home Friday
evening and found there
were people already there
who had broken into it.

The man, who lives on the
1800 block Ottawa went to a
neighbor’s home and called
the police. A youth tried to
leave the man's home while
the police were on their way
and the householder ap-
prehended him.

Police found a total of
three juveniles had been in
the house and as a result of
their investigation have
charged five juveniles with
three counts of break and
entry. None of the incidents
had been reported to the
police.

A collection of drawings
of nude women by North
Vancouver artist Dorothy
Manning, which City staff
complained were obscene,
are to be allowed to hang in
North Van City hall for the
duration of the exhibition
which ends the second week
of April.

When 13 of his female
staff presented him with a
petition stating that the
pictures - wunexplicit
sketches of naked women -
were obscene, Mayor Jack
Loucks said he would let
public opinion be the judge.

Since then City hall has
received nine calls voicing
the same opinion as the 13
staff who raised the matter

"T-LIKE CENSORSHIP —

and he has received one
letter in favor of the
exhibition.

But by and large, ac-
cording to the mayor, most
people have been saying
they don't consider there's
anything offensive at all in
the pictures.

“A lot of people wonder
what all the fuss is about,” he
says. “They say they see
nothing wrong with the
pictures.”

He appears to feel the
dispute which arose when
the pictures were hung
among an exhibition by
Dorothy Manning two weeks
ago in City hall may well
have been useful in focussing
City’s attention on a subject
which required a decision.

in N.Van City hall

“A minor controversy lke
this makes people look at it
and you have to decide who
will determine what pictures
will be put up. We always
had the attitude that the
North Vancouver Com-
munity Arts Council had the
choice.”

He wonders whether it is
time council made a decision
on the matter for future
record

He says: “I don’t think any
of us particularly like
censorship. If we are going
to continue with the com-
munity arts group making
the selection Id like to have
it clear who's running it, so
we know it, the public knows
it and the community arts
council knows it.
