GREAT IDEA by 8.C.
Transit and Environment
Canada to make June | to 6
Environment Week.

{t was to encourage people to
leave their polluting cars at home
and take the bus. | don’t drive, I
never have and I’m always happy
riding the bus, especially our
super new-look Blue Buses.

They’re safer, more relaxing
and very comfortabie. The new
buses came on stream about two
weeks ago, much tc the delight of
transit manager Tony Lorage.

West Van Municipal Transit has
provided service in West Van since
1912 and is the oldest continuous-
ly operated municipal service in
North America.

These Orion } buses are the
first for the Vancouver Regional
Transit System and should prove
popular to the riding public...

Couldn't believe how successful
the first annual Celebrity Waiter’s
Luncheon was at Michaet Kaite’s
Waterfront Centre Hotel.

Neither could the hard-working
organizers, Brooke DeBoutray and
Philip Langridge, who wound up
with just over $90,000 in under
two hours.

Helping to make it a success
were VIPs like Steven Funk, Teny
Hepburn, Jamie Mah, Jacqui
Cohen, Susie Moll, David
Richardson, Elani Skalbania,
Frank Bernard, Michael Lambert,
John Evans, Olga Hick, Bob
Kadlec, Bob Lee, Avtar Bains,
Jim Hutton, Kevin Evans, Norm
Grohmann and especially West
Van Mayor Mark Sager, who was
even frantically jumping on his
chair to increase the bidding.

Best Spert Award had to go to
pretty Jili Marshall, the top-sell-
ing life insurance agent in
Canada, who took a whipped
cream pie in the face from her
client, wealthy lumberman Bob
Smurthwaite. He really plastered

er!

She was a sight to behold.

It was a unique and fun way to
raise money for such a worthy
cause. Kudos too, to CBC’s Kevin
Evans as emcee and to talented
auctioneer Barry Scott, who
helped a little nine-year-old who
was a recovered leukemia victim,
auction off a large stuffed Mickey
Mouse for $6,000.

It was the same kind of infec-
tous spirit of giving that pervaded
the party that night at the home
of American Con. Gen. David
Jobnson and his wife, Scarlett
Swann.

This was the Midsummer's Eve
gaia fundraising dinner and auc-
tion for the Canadian Cancer
Society (CCS).

Those two cute six-year-old
twins from the TV series Full
House, Mary Kate and Ashley
Olson, have been attracting a
good deal of attention over at
Cleveland Dam in North Var ina
Christmas-time scene for the TV
movie To Grandma’s House We
Go with Rhea Perlman and Gerry
van Dyke.

They were there for an entire
week, It took a little longer than
expected because every now and
then a tourist in simmer shorts
would be caught strolling across
the grass.

Earlier in the week, the crew
was shooting other scenes en the
steps of tire Vancouver Art
Gallery.

Christopher (Superman) Reeve
has been shooting his new film,
Mortal Sins decked out in priestly
garb out in the sunshine at the

from the curious golfers...

FRANK ANDERSON and Susic Moll at the Waterfront Centre lun-
cheon - over $90,000 was raised in under two hours.

up to Murray Pezim’s office to
make a presentation to the guy
who helped pull off the oh-so-
successful Return of the
Firefighter’s Ball at the Hote)
Vancouver last May 2.

The gift to the Pez, the
department’s honorary fire chief,
was a huge black marble plaque
upon which is a long-handled
white fireman’s axe.

And you know, I always
thought that Murray wes Van-
couver’s first-ever honorary fire
chief, but a female reporter beat
him by a few years. Apparently
the one-time Vancouver Sun col-
umaist and author, Simme Holt,
was named Vancouver’s first
donorary Fire Chief back in 1970
by West Van resident and former
VFD chief Armand Konig...
