2 - Friday, March 2, 1984 - North Shore News INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DEBATE her, McCaw said, ‘‘This is outrageous, that a man that is wearing a collar (Dungey is an Anglican Priest) is sitting there and bare face lying (sic).”” Dungey, who was shaken by the mood and anger of the crowd, and by the accusa- tion, said he did ‘‘not appre- ciate that kind of treatment when a person is trying to give answers to questions.’’ McCaw accused Dungey of lying when he said he had not received any letters prior to three days before the board: meeting, requesting a public: forum on the society proposal. Another spokesperson for the society, former West Vancouver Alderman John Security, Humphries blamed the ac- tions and mood of the crowd on their frustration in not be- ing given a chance to give ROY DUNGEY ..angry meeting their proposal. ‘*We have people who are frustrated because we have not been given a _ chance, Humphries said.”’ After the meeting, he also told the News that he was not ‘ta baby sitter,’’ nor was he the society’s ‘‘keeper.”’ Humphries also privately apologized to Dungey, although he stressed it was a personal apology, not as a representative of the society. The North Vancouver School Board recently turned down a proposal by the socie- ty to rent Hamilton Junior Secondary. The board decid- _ ed then to move the board’s offices and maintenance “yards to Hamilton and then sell off those properties. The new proposal by the society is an attempt to make the deal ‘‘sweeter’’ for the strictly personal by Bob Hunter ITH ALL THE CONCERN about porn in our-inidst, I wonder about such whim- sical publications as Petersen’s Personal ‘The Complete Protection Magazine, Eagle, Shooter’s Survival Guide and Gung-Ho. To ‘mention a few of the ssnainly on maiming, killing “and. setting your dogs upon people It is interesting: (appall- ing?) to note that there has been an odd intermingling in recent years of what was once the hippie survival ethic and what used to be the simple, straightforward Soldier of Fortune’ kill-for-fun-and- profit mindset. What brought this sharply to my attention was a recent issue of Gung-Ho, an American publication (as most of these things tend to be) which carried its usual number of features on poison bullets, combat fleets, affor- Nostalgia Plus gia | Rattan Design Ltd that focus. —. dable tactical radios and—lo d>Greenpeace! Yes, Vancouver’s own gen- tle eco-freaks have finally made it to the macho big- time. Gung-Ho’s February issue leads off with an editorial titled ‘‘Wimps in America, A Dangerous Presence,’’ but then goes on to feature the ‘‘dedicated gung-ho eco-guerrillas of Greenpeace.”’ The editor-in-chief apologized briefly at the beginning of the story, saying ‘Yeh, I know, you think I’m off my nut doing an article like this in a magazine like ours,”’ but then spouted a crock of unmitigated macho garbage worthy of, well, an 1401 Hornby St. editor-in-chief of Gung-Ho magazine, ending up urging his readers to ‘‘Kill Com- munists, not whales!”’ And the curious part is that the juxtapositioning of what started out as a ‘‘peace move- ment’? with rabid mad-dog gun craziness is hardly isolated. There are dozens of ‘these survivalist magazines .which basically say the same sort of things that stoned-out longhairs were mumbling in the sixties.

Humphries told the News that the proposal was similar to its offer to the West Van- couver School Board, Mon- day night. , That proposal attempts to get around the revenue shar- ing arrangement with the provincial government. In- stead of paying a large lease for Hamilton (funding being Shared with the provincial government on 60/49 split), the society would give-a-large “‘non-sharable’’ grant to the District on a yearly basis: West board decided to ‘study the offer before making a final These magazines are unrelenting.
