INNOVATION

It has been brought to my attention that
some people would like an index to the
Innovation Abstracts which are a
regular addition to the Mad Hatter.

| have a complete index for Volume |
through Volume Vill (July 1979 to
September 1986). In addition, | have a
complete collection of articles from
Volume VI, No. |! (April, 1984) to the
present.

If you would like a copy of the index of
the articles (issues), please let me
know.

WALK-FOR-
LITERACY

| would like to apologize to the people
from Douglas College who contributed
to the Walk-for-Literacy held last
October in Stanley Park. | am sorry for
the delay in getting receipts and
information out to sponsors and
walkers. The Walk raised $4000 which
will go to the Carnegie Centre and the
Adult Literacy Contact Centre. Thanks
are extended to Gillies Malnarich, for
the work she did in organizing the
College support. The Adult Basic
Education Association of B.C. has re-
cently been granted charitable tax
status by the Federal Government, and
we will be organizing the Second
Annual Walk-for-Literacy this fall. We
will be better organized the second
time around, and look forward to your
continued support of this very
worthwhile cause. If you have any
questions please contact me at the
Maple Ridge Centre - 467-681 I.

DOUGLAS COLLEGE
HEALTH
AWARENESS CLUB

The Health Awareness Club meets
every Wednesday from 12:00 to |:00
P.M. in room 2802. Although this
began as a “Diet” Club, none of us are
strictly dieting but, as we become more
conscious of health factors and their
importance through our instructor,
Chris Johnson, we are gradually losing
weight.

Club activities vary from pot-luck
luncheons where the food structure is
analyzed into fats, carbohydrates, etc.,
to playing adult games (where a good
time is had by all). We have seen films
on health subjects such as fad diets
and osteoporosis and on fine days we

 

walked to the Quay and Friendship
Gardens. Future plans include outdoor
games such as tennis.

Our knowledgeable and fun-oriented
instructor, Chris Johnson, originally
offered only his help, but has now
kindly taken over the structure of the
Club and his efforts are much appre-
ciated. We feel we have learned a
great deal about our health
requirements in the past few weeks.
Above all, we now realize the neces-
sity of some form of exercise on a
regular basis.

Applications are now being taken for a
personal nutritional analysis through
the local Y.M.C.A. The cost - approxi-
mately $11.00 per person - will dep-
end on the number of participants.
Information is available through Chris
Johnson at local 5334.

The club will continue until June and
new members are still welcome.
Registration is through C.P. & S. and
the fee is $10.00.

RRSP -
DEFERRED
SALARY
LEAVE

Due to recent changes in the tax laws it
may be possible to implement a
flexible RRSP program through payroll
deduction.

Although details are somewhat vaque
at this time, ‘Deferred Salary Leave
Plan’ deductions appear to be a possi-

bility.
CANCER FUND

| am a canvasser for the Canadian
Cancer Society, and would be deligh-
ted to receive your contribution.
Income tax receipts will be issued.
