news ts
on 'Canadian-U.S, efforts to
Tetcleve the Soviet satellite

in our Northwest Territories. |

We are not yet positive as
to the use of this satellite by
the U.S.S.R, but in recent
dincussions on the matter in
the House of Commons the
“friendly use’ of satellites
has been underlined by our
Minister of Defense, the Hon.
Ba ‘Danson,

Sateliltes are used, he
said, to check the position of
ships, or pollution, and to

in search and rescue.

The extension of Canada's
offshore limits to 200 miles,
together with increasing oii.
and’.gas exploration and
tanker: traffic in the Arctic

-and off east and west coasts,

hae led the federal Govern-
ment to consider the use of
radar-equipped surveillance
satellites to augment air-
craft and ship surveillance.
(Radar is necessary because
of its ability to penetrate
cloud and darkness.)
At this time,a special task
force ai studying ate
ty of a Canadian
surveillance satellite to be
operational in the early
1980's.
The task force defines the
word “surveillance” to In-
clude monitoring both en-

‘vironmental conditions such

as sea state, ice, fog, surface
winds, tremperature and oll

Hution and human activity

such as the movement of
ships, drill rigs and ex-
ploration parties.)

This move on the part of
the federal government
should be reassuring to
many sea-travellers, and I
hope that satellite use will
prove most helpful to many
of us in northwestern B.C.

Altogether six work
sharing arrangements have
been madé between labour,
industry and government.
Workers who are involved
will not face unemployment
because of companies’ need’
to lay off workers tem-
proarily and companies will
maintain a stable work
force, This co-operative
effort, 1 believe, will provide
a necessary bridge for
economic revovery that we
so badly need at this time.

‘Moving to a more

Six Pieces de Suites 1

A sonata by A

rather slow pace set in

the grace required for

musicians chose such a
dreary finale, when a
quartet member told
me later they have
commissioned works
by this composer
written expecially for
them. Fortunately
these _exercises in
technical expertise are
not one of them.

A word as promised
about the audience. In
many. years as a
concert goer, I have
never seen a more
thoughtless or rude
group. The nature of
these instruments
demand attention by
all if anyone is to enjoy
the performance. Late
comers should: have
the courtesy to wait
until the sound from

the stage has s
before e opening topped

doors and sitting in the
first available seat as
quickly as possible.
Light and movement
are as distracting as
the sounds of infants
and children playing in
their seats. Moving up
and down the outside
aisle does not make
you any less of a
nuisance.

Quartet Tarago tried
manfully to regain the
mood of the opening
Fugues by. encoring
the popular Miller's
Dance by De Falla.
Alas, it was too late.
Their concentrations
had been broken once
too often. Quartet
