SKELETAL REMAINS e seek public help

WEST VANCOUVER detectives are turning to the public for help in identifying a young man

whose skeletal

remains

were found on a

Hollyburn Mountain trail in April:

The remains were found by two North Shore residents hiking the area on Monday, April 23 and, despite intensive efforts, police have as yet been unable to identify the body.

Investigation has revealed only that the body was at the Hollyburn site for as long as three years — any time be- tween the spring of 198] and the fall of 1983. The police have full dental charts from the body but so far have been unable to match them with those on file with den- tists who have been con-

‘tacted.

Police describe the dead man as a white male, be- tween 20 and 35 years of age. He was tall, of medium build and had his own teeth with a substantial amount of dental work.

The man was wearing a blue jean jacket and a blue jean shirt with snap buttons, GWG boot cut jeans, a braided black leather belt with a square brass buckle and tan-colored, size 10- and-a-half suede cowboy

boots. The boots were HH brand and had been pur-

chased at store.

Anyone with information on the missing man or anyone who has gone miss- ing between the spring of 1981 and the fall of last year who may match the descrip- tion police have compiled is asked to telephone the West Van Police at 922-4141.

Cyclists draw police warning

IF YOU’RE a cyclist and figure you’re fast enough to get away with running red lights and stop signs, you’d better be fast enough to out-run police, too.

That's the word North Vancouver RCMP who have launched a crackdown on cyclists who are not obeying the rules of road as spelled out in the provincial Motor Vehicles Act.

If you’re caught con- travening those rules and found guilty, police say, you could be fined as much as

from

$35 for each infraction.

Police are launching the crackdown m response to a significant increase in the number of law-breaking cyclists on the roads since the start of the transit shut- down,

‘*Since the buses stopped running there’s been a noticeable increase in the in- cidents of cyclists failing to obey traffic signs and the rules of the road,’” says a spokesman for the com- munity policing division of the RCMP. ‘‘Cyclists must Obey the same rules as drivers.”’
