FROM PAGE A1 alive - rests now with Tony Brummet, minister of the provincial government. Brummet was not available for comment, but executive assistant Dick Okros told the News late this week that the minister is ex- pected to respond soon to a plea to stop the logging pro- posal. — That request was made by NorthVan District Mayor Marilyn. Baker. “The minister has not yet made up his mind,” said Okros, “but I expect an an- nouncement of some kind or a response to Mayor Baker is imminent.” Baker, the three North Shore MLAs and others are united in their opposition to the- logging proposal but, because of the timber rights the company holds, may be unable to stop it. According to Okros, staff DEBBIE IS from North Vancouver, and works part time in a dentist of- fice. She wants to study to become a dental assis- tant. The Tree. Man 4 i Wi, —~————... a by .
