Taylor on TV Cultus Lake's marathon whistler, Elwood Taylor, and ac-companist Elsie Giesbrecht appeared last weekend on CKVU television's Vancouver Show. "They said they'd like to have us back," reported Taylor.

Taylor whistled, with Giesbrecht backing him up with piano, guitar, and yodeling, performing Chime Bells, Blue Canadian Rockies, You're My Best Friend, and a contemporary gospel song, Come On In. Tho Time for Change The bathtub, unchanged in 50 years, is too short, too narrow and too low, and toilet seats should be redesigned to be more comfortable, maintains a human factors engineer. The author of a textbook on people-oriented products says, for example, toilets ought to be taller. EXTENDING A HAND Children of Rosedale and Agassiz United Churches last Friday evening staged the first of two benefit concerts as a hand of friendship for children of the Asian country of Nepal. One of the children, holding up a large graphic of a carrot in this musical number about No More Bread and Butter, extended a hand in a different way here to wave at mom and dad.

The second concert will be this Friday, 7:30 p.m. at Kent Elementary School in Agassiz. prpecnts A TRIPLE HEADER! EXOTIC DANCER All week the nub, shows at KOTO?

Mixing music, humor, and pathos it tells of hopes, fears and triumphs of early farmers of Saskatchewan and how they overcame almost universal skepticism and hostility to form their June lOthilith 12th own grain marketing company, the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool.

The production, directed by Clint Hames, features: Fraser Valley College's theatre department head and festival artistic director, Ian Fenwick; Vancouver stage veteran Roy Vine; FVC regulars Lynne Wells and Rick Mawson; and Sabine Hutchin-son, well-known Chilliwack Players' Guild performer.

South, Chilliwaek for the visit. Students taking band courses began selling chocolate bars to raise money for the trip. Vedder has a small concert band this year of about 24 people. Every member is therefore needed for each concert. Despite the fact the chocolate sale was a big success and although the necessary funds were raised, many students were unable to get away for the exchange trip.

It had been scheduled for June 2 to June 4. This left the band teacher Mr. Vedder Junior Sec. School news by N. Cave On Thursday, May 6 VJSS held its annual spring concert.

It has become a tradition at the school to host a visiting band at our concert. This year the band was from Quesnel and the concert was a tremendous success. This tradition also includes an invitation to Vedder students to make a return trip to Quesnel. Having set the dates for the exchange Vedder began to raise the funds Wilson with no other option but to cancel the arrangement. A rather disheartened Mr.

Wilson has arranged a day-trip to Hell's Gate in appreciation of the effort displayed by his students. He is optimistic for next year however, when the band will consist of 59 students. It is rather sad for both the Quesnel band and for Vedder's music program but we can always look forward to next year. 792-1311 Vedder nan HELD OVER HELD OVER 2nd WEEK JUNE 11 -17 EVENINGS: 7:00 9:00 P.M.

These last few weeks (three to be exact) have been really full of life and things have just started getting back to normal. To start with, there have been two field trips, one on May 17 and the other on May 20.

On May 17, we (the Grade 9 population) went to Victoria. The major problem of the trip was the ferry, which was scheduled to depart at 8:15, was delayed an hour. This left us with about 45 minutes to kill at the ferry terminal. This created more problems; one of our four options had to be dropped, so of course they were the uneducational ones, the wax museum and the undersea gardens. The students must complete a 25-page booklet of various questions on what they have seen and heard.

The places we went to see were the B.C. Legislature, the B.C. museum, and Butchart Gardens. Despite the delay and cancellations of the field trip, though a little rushed, was really enjoyed by all. The end of May and June should be a little slower, with only the honor roll field trip, track meet on May 26, and report cards on June 30.

With only nine days of school left, it won't be boring. Have a great summer; because I won't be writing again, see you next year. TICKETOUTLETS: CHILLIWACK Bretts Limited Jennifer's Apparel Ltd.
