’ While the law frowns on this, many people are

in favour of self defense, even if it means kill-

Today’s question is:

No trouble in
local schools

WHILE VANCOUVER high schools were struck
by student walk-outs this week, it was business as
usual in North Shore schools according to

educaters,

Thursday, students Ieft a
number of schools in the
Vancouver area, saying they

‘were leaving their classes to

bring greater public atten-
tion to the effect of educa-
tional budget cuts on
schools.

In North Vancouver, to
Jate Friday morning, there
had been no disruption of
classes here.

One high school educator
offered the opinion that the
biggest reason was because

“The staff cuts that have
had to be made have been
achieved through attrition,”
he said. *‘The students have
gotten used to the situation
as it has developed over the
past three years.**

He said that is far dif-
ferent than the situation fac-
ed by the Vancouver school
board where lay-offs appear
likely as the result of the
latest round of educational
funding restraint.

My worn out, scuffed old shues are my favorite
possession. I guess [ should. break down and: buy
some new ones. You know, every time ! try to, I put.
ray ald ones on one more time and | can't help but
take them to the shoe repair shop. They're not really
worth ft, but hey, they're really comfy. | guess a lot
of people feel the same way about their favorite

things Like their cars.

My hard unsell has made way for ¢
cerned questioning. | finally figured out:
somebody comes.in to Crash Pad . ite

:clunker they know what they want. They have also”
weighed the ‘‘maybes’, ‘buts'.'an
carefully. I've always been concerned that t ast:
of the repairs will outweigh its market value, That is,
if they are going to sell it. Usually though, these loyal
people just love their comfortable, familiar cars, and.
they plan on giving it a home for another 3 or 15
years. So you cani see it's just not right for me to give
people the third degree. Maybe just the first.
