Former teacher jailed

A FORMER North Vancouver elementary school teacher
was sentenced Tuesday in B.C. Supreme Court to 12
months in jail for committing gross indecency with a
former student.

Carl William Stymiest, 48, was convicted in June after
the student, now in his early 30s with a wife and three
children, testified that the Burrard View Community
School teacher had engaged him in masturbution and
oral sex in the early '70s.

The witness gave evidence that Stymiest, his Grade 6
teacher, once took him to a Richmond motel on the
pretence of going on a weekend camping trip with
Stymiest and his wife.

The sentence handed down by Mr. Justice Wiliam
Trainor is being appealed.

Trial date set

A TRIAL date has been set for one of two men charged
in connection with an attempted cigarette heist from 2
Caulfeild Village supermarket.

Tyler J. Burgess, 27, of Burnaby, will appear Feb. 7 in
B.C. Supreme Court for trial and jury selection. The
trial is scheduled to run from Feb. 10 to 14.

The charges against Burgess and co-accused David K.
Raffle, 22, of Surrey, stem from a March 23 incident in
which a joint-forces police operation interrupted an
early-morning robbery.

Burgess and Raffle were ordered to stand trial on five
counts, including robbery of two Canada Safeway
employees, break and enter, theft of a Toyota pickup
track and possession of the stolen vehicle.

Senator hospitalized

NORTH VANCOUVER Senator Ray Perrault was listed
in good condition in Lions Gate Hospital Thursday.

4 spokesman in Perrault's Ottawa office would only
say that Perraull, 65, is in the hospital for minor
surgery.

“He's in good condition. He’s undergoing a minor
preventive procedure and he'll be back at home on the
weekend.’” said the spokesman. ‘‘It’s a private matter.
He's ifoing fine.”

Roof funds arrive

THE PROVINCIAL government has previded Lions
Gate Hospital with $350,000 fer roofing repairs.

The money will be used to replace parts of the roofs
on the activation building and the northern expansion.

LGH president Bob Smith said he is pleased to receive
the money even though it comes three years after the
hospital requested funds for rooficg repairs.

He said the contribution fram the ministry of health
was less than the hospitel requested, adding that LGH
would subsequently have to ‘“‘ro'l its other needs” into a
later application for funding.
