Tommy Biln: children

If you're ing what

16, and 16-17. Over

all that noise coming from the
arenas is lately, this past
week has been Minor Hockey
Week in Castlegar. The
week's activities included
visits from teams from Spo-
kane and: the West Koot-
enays, a dance and a raffle.
To make this week a success,
the Minor Hockey Week
Committee “has worked very
hard" says Tommy Biln,
president of Minor Hockey in
Castlegar.

Tommy's involvement with
hockey began when his three
sons started their respective
hockey careers, Mother and
Father became true “hockey:
parents” and began the al-
most daily excursions down
to the arena to sit bundled up
in the bleachers watching
their children on the ice.

“For two years I just
watched,” says Tommy,
“then I asked the coach if
there was anything that I
could do.” And before he
knew it he was Division
Manager. That was six years
ago. As president of the as-
sociation this year, Tommy is
responsible for making sure
everything runs smoothly —
the teams, the coaches, the
meshing of schedules.

Of his own hockey career
he laughingly says, “I guess
Tve played only two games of
hockey in my life. I was the
goalie and I hung onto the
goal, posts!” Then he said
quietly, “You know, I ac-
tually hated hockey at one
time. But now I really enjoy
it.”

Minor hockey, I learned,
has teams for just about any
age. Novices are those as-
piring young hockey players
aged five to eight, “That’s the
fun age, they're the. fun
group,” says Tommy.) Atoms
are aged 9-10, Peewees 11-12,
Bantams 18-14, Midgets 16-

300 youngsters play hockey
here and Tommy notes that
Castlegar’s registration ‘is
higher than that of Trail and
Nelson and our population is
smaller,

Kids who sign up for
hockey are assured of being
on the ice at least three times
a week beginning in October
and ending with playoffs in
April. Usually one session a
week is a practicé, and the
other two are intramural
“house” games where teams
in the same division play each
other. Each division has one
“rep” team ‘which competes
against teams from outside of
Castlegar. *

Besides Minor Hockey
Week this year, the
ciation: planned the
successful exchange
Sweden last month,
week they hosted the East-
West Kootenay Juvenile
Playdowns and according to
Tommy our team “did very
well.” In March they will host
the Peewee Provincials.

Tommy feels the spirit of
minor hockey is good in town.
“The volunteer help is un-
real,” and represents hun-
dreds of hours per week.
“The fees we charge only
represent 60 per cent of our
ice costs,” he told me. “The
other 50 per cent is raised
through Ladies'Auxiliary
work, such as the concession
at the old arena.”

‘The coaches who donate so
much of their time have ail
had instruction at coaching
clinies put on by Selkirk
College. Tommy mentioned
that we have some coaches
who have achieved a “level
five”. coaching — certificate
“which is the highest level.
We’ are very fortunate to
have coaches of this caliber.”

Referees also give their
time and many have started

Getting to Know Your Neighbor

their levels at local referee
clinics, “The volunteer help is
tremendous,” he repeated.
“We stress the obligation on
the part of the team mem-
bers to keep the ice costs
down.”

Three years ago the Can-
adian Amateur Hockey As-
sociation eliminated body
checking from the PeeWee
level down in minor hockey
and, according to Tommy,
“that's the best thing that’s
happened. The kids are out to
have fun, They're not’ out
there to get thumped around
and hurt. Hockey. is really
changing. It’s not.as rough.”

Tommy cited an interest-

ing statistic; only one child .

out of every 5,000 who plays
minor hockey ever ends up in
the NHL and 95 per cent are
never going to ‘play hockey
again after their’ stint in
minor hockey.

“So it’s got to be just fun.
It’s had to change.” More and
more coaches are concerned
that each child gets a chance
to play, he told me, rather
than winning the game at all
costs.

Tommy was born in New
Westminster and grew up in
Mission. He attended UBC
and because he “always liked
chemistry,” enrolled in the
pharmacy program and got
his degree. “My dad wanted
me to be an engineer, but I
liked chemistry and people.

In 1958 at the British
Empire Games in Wales the
nine-member team won &

gold and a silver medal. A
year later at the PanAmer-

earned a silver ‘medal. In

1960 ‘the team travelled to
the Olympics In- Rome: and
came away with still another
silver medal and: this put
them in ‘the B.C. Hall of
Fame. ‘

Tommy remembers rowing
“four hours a day every day.
We rowed off Stanley Park

few times when it got rough.”

“posto my 34 years “td this
area, Brigadier General
Frederick Burnham of Hal-
cyon Hot Springs has always
been a fascinating but semi-
legendary figure, but an es-
sential part of local history.

Requests for information,
however, elicited some ver-
bal information from Polly
Romaine, personal recollec-
tions of the man and the place
by wife, Bunny,'and printed
information from Axel Niel-
sen and Matt Rohn. Last
week we printed Bunny's
recollections of some 30 years
“ago.

‘This week, with Mr. Niel-
sen’s permission, I would like
to offer the contents of a
small 8 x 5-inch (8 x 18.6 em)
booklet. It is entitled “Hal-
cyon Springs, Arrow Lakes,
B.C." and is surmounted with
the insignia of the White
Cross, Grand Privy Order. It
would appear to be a kind of
publicity ‘booklet, possibly
ordered by the general him-
self, and the material taken
from several different sourc-
es — one of whom appears to
have been a columnist who,
though he is writing (pre-
sumably about 1930) writes
as if he were a late Victorian.

The first page is headed
“On The Line, IV” and is ap-
parently a reprint from the
Vancouver Daily Province. it
begins:

In my last I think I
indicated that at Revelstoke,
“The Line,” (the CPR?) so far
as it is treated of in these
scattered paragraphs, took to
water by way of the rear
paddle-wheel steamer, the
“Minto.” Now the “Minto”
must have been named sev-
eral governor-generalships
ago, so you can reckon her
zge near enough yourself.

* -She is still a quite taut and
likeable boat. None of the
people who boarded her on
the day I am mentioning
would have minded living on
her for an extended period,
for there is a well-appointed
saloon for meals, and com-
fortable berths to sleep in,
not to mention unparalleled
views of mountains and lake.
(I have before shown, in
these letters-on-the-way, a
sort of tendency towards the
picturesque.) We were
bound, on the. present oc-

casion to the first seaport on
the voyage — to wit, Halcyon
Hot Springs. We got there
with equanimity, and landed
with pride. It marked the end
‘of our trip. We had ac-
complished our intention and
carried out our plan. Sub-
sequent travelling will be
in the nature of a return,
which is never so interesting.
. . *

But though I may say, 50
far so good, I must endeavor
to give my “dear readers”
some description of this
unique emporium of health,
built high up against the site
of a lofty hill; a hospital
under the sway of the White
Cross, and under,the imme-
diate. superintendence of
Surgeon-General Burnham,
who, having served with dis-
tinction in the war, has found.
here a fitting place in which
to expend his irrespressible
energy.

There are some White
Cross leaflets somewhere
about the place, that give in
irreproachable _ English an
account of the activities. of
that society, but as I have not
one of them at hand, I will

only note the fact that it loses -

about a dollar aday,on every
guest entertained. here. (An

covered with their delightful
spring foliage that contrasts,
here and there, with a
balsam, or a cedar. Across
the calm Jake about as wide
here as the ferry track across
the Inlet (Burrard inlet, Van-
couver) are the foothills,
above which gleams Mount
Halcyon, 10,400 feet, whose
topmost peak has no clim-
bers, and is covered with
eternal snow.

But of course there are no
sophisticated elevators in a
truly-to-goodness place of
this sort, and if, as a con-,
sequence, thigh muscles take”
on a development similar to
that of the New

bed, covered up ‘With wlan

to sweat in comfort. .

There ‘is no dust in this
place, so bacteria give it the
go-by. There is no dust be-
cause there is no adjacent
cultivable land. The advaa-
tages of a dustless atmos-
phere are evident, I don't
know whether anybody and

_ everybody can be granted

admission to the halcyon
days that are spent here.
Judging from the aspect of
the guests at present I should
image that they have to give
references, But P.A. O'Far-
rell, the well-known journa-
list, will know. He has often

people it is all to the good.

Another thing that strikes
me is that a staff of helpers
consisting of bred-in-the-bone
ladies, chiefly of English
birth, have found here a place
where they can diffuse the

written ° of this
paradisal location. It is 1450
feet above sea level. It es-
capes the rain of lower levels
and the rarefied atmosphere
of higher altitudes.

But as I said before, not
having the leaflet,I will just
mention a few things in my
own words. One of the first
that strikes me is that you
are always either going up-

climb staircase after stair-

health-giving open air, and
after that make a steep climb
to the top of the hill, if you

water gushes from its rocky

ceived the thanks of the
United States embassy for

zens in Montenegro. In 1922

HALCYON SPRINGS
ABEAUTY SPOT TUCKED
AWAY AMID LAKE AND
MOUNTAIN
WONDERLAND

About mid-way to Arrow-
head, some 20 miles north
from Nakusp, nestling
amongst the pines and firs at
the foot of the mountain
slopes, is Halcyon Hot
Springs. Here the natural
mineral waters, which come
steaming from the. rocks
further up the mountain, are
brought under contro! to the
end that their benefactive
properties: may be . made
available for the relief of suf-
fering humanity. From ac-
ross the Continent, and even
from. beyond the’ ocean,
comes an everincreasing cli-
entele to this haven of quiet-
ude, culture and comfort,
‘seeking health and recreation
from the curative powers of
the .springs. Brigadier-Gen-
eral F.E., Burnham, Grand
Prior of the White Cross,

‘under whose aegis the mana-

gement operates, tells of the
exhaustive tests which he

spas on the Continent of

common occurrence for a
patient, who: was. so badly
crippled as to have to be
carried from the steamer
which calls at the Springs, to

board the boat smiling and on —

his, or her, own feet after a
comparatively short sojourn
‘at Halcyon Springs. A mem-
.ber of the -Author’s Club,
London, Eng., and a speaker
whose fluency and perspic-
acity betoken a full mind,
Brig.-General Burnham gives
lectures from time to time on
the attaining and maintaining
of health and fitness, being
himself a living embodiment
of the doctrine that he
‘preaches. ~

Across the lake from the
Priory, on ‘the western shore,
towers majestic Mt/ Halcyon
whose rocky peaks and flinty
escarpments, with their
gleaming mantle of glacial
snow, present an everchang-
ing and ever-challenging pic-
ture that runs'the gamut of
Nature's .moods. Here, in-
deed, in these Upper Arrow
Lakes is a terrain where the
air is laden, not with the dust
and noisome-fumes of city

~ streets, byt withthe health-

giving scents of the pine for-
est and the ozond of the
sun-spangled lake. Of the in-
terior of the Priory, with its
art treasures, space does not
permit to speak. Not is it to

be wofdered at that the ~

ever-widening circle, who
have drank of the beautios:.

and freshness of Halcydn and’

the Upper Arrow Lakes,
agree that these centres of
health and ‘scenic’ splendor.
cannot become too widely
known.
—W.B. Allan
“Halcyon — the Magic
Word which conveys to one’s
mind thoughts of: peace and
quietude, is the ideal name
for that beauty spot on the
shores of Arrow Lake which

is now becoming world famed
amongst all classes of peo-
ple.”

“Haleyon lies serenely
tucked away amid surround-
ings of scenic grandeur only a
short distance from o our main
highway.”

“Blessed by nature with a
wonderful series of hot
springs which contain chem-
ical content said to surpass
that of any other hot springs
on the North-American Con-
tinent.”

“Though probably the ma-
jority of visitors to Halcyon’
go there to derive ‘benefit
from the curative waters,
there are many other. at-
tractions. Beautiful walks
among: woodland’ scenery
may be enjoyed, and the
scenic beauty of the sur-
roundings can hardly be sur-
