Continued from 1A because their employer that day was their union, and not their respective hospitals, and because the union had replaced their wages for that day, WCB ruled that in that circumstance they were also employees under WCB. Because all three partics fall under the supervision of WCB, ICBC was let off the hook for claims. “Let's say, hypothetically, that a young person suffers a catas- trophic injury. Under WCB. that injured emptoyce toses 25 per cent of wages for the rest of their working life afitil they retire because the maximum range of WCB payments is approximately 75 per cent. Secondly, the injured employee loses all rights to gen- eral damages which are pain, suf- fering and loss of enjoyment of life,” said Dalton, who is current- ly representing Elizabeth Chr- usch in what has now become a legal tangle against ICBC. In.a catastrophic injury, the highest court of B.C. has indicat- ed that an appropriate award for the suffering is $240,000. “If a young person loses 25 per cent of their wages for the rest of their life and this $240,000 that they could have otherwise invested, that person has literally lost multimillions of dollars over their-lifetime.” The driver was not only com- pletely negligent, he did not have a valid drivers licence.

John Van Putten 365-5579 The Castlegar Sun WEDNESDAY, January 5, 1994 Rocker and Rockettes net mixed results JOHN VAN PUTTEN Sun Sports The game of basketball is one popular sport all across the United States, and Cana- da for that matter—but the high level of support in the USA did not stop two Castle- gar high school teams from making their annual trip to Northpor,t Washington to take part in the Cross-border tournament. Up against tough competi- tion, the Stanley Humphries Senior Boys” and Girls’ squads found the trip to be both rewarding and one that taught them a few lessons. “We go down to Northport and play in front of a good crowd to play against Ameri- can teams with a strong defence,” said SHSS Senior Boys Coach John Ritchie. Hitting the court for action in the December 29, 30 tour- ney netted the Rockers mixed results. In their first game they played Northport Sec- on School and the 59-51 score was in their favor. Mark Perrier was the lead Rocker on the scoreboard with 14 points. That win earned the SHSS JOHN VAN PUTTEN Sun rts The Castlegar Rebels are planning to break into the 1994 section of the Kootenay Inter- national Junior Hockey League season like a lion—just as thcy said goodbye to | Currently the Rebels are sit- ting.on a 20 game winning streak, which destroyed the club record of 19 in their-last game of 1993 against the Ross- land Warriors. In the next couple practices Coach Wayne Salekin said, “we will try and get the players out skating to try and wear off some of that turkey off them.” This Friday night the Rebels will be up against Rossland in another match that will have both teams fighting for the win for different reasons. Castlegar is aiming to win their 21st game to tie the League record set by the Grand Forks Border Bruins last season. “Getting back On the track we left off on,” is the main goal of the Rebels coaching staff as they prepare to start off the 1994 section of the season. Rossland, on the other hand, wants to be the team to end the Rebels streak. The Warriors were unsuccessful in their last team’ a spot in the tourney final, Ritchic said the 63-52 loss to Curlew Secondary School was not a bad final result, Considering his team was’down by 15 points after the first quarter of the game. Todd Bonderoff lead the way with 18 points for the Rockers. In last year's tourney the Rockers returned with the tourney title with 71-48 and 58-55 wins in the two games they played. Two years, ago the teams performance did not net them near the same result, as they got pummeled, in this annual event for the SHSS team. As for the Senior Girls team their two games gave them much of the same result—two losses. They opened with a loss to Northport 42-38 and closed the tourney with another losing effort to Curlew Sevondary, 49- 37. “We are still in ‘learning mode. We are playing every- one equal, we are starting to turn it up,” said Senior Girls Coach, Jack-Closkey. Up to this point in the sea- son Closkey says he and his team have been more con- attempt on December 17, when the Rebels won with an amaz- ing 6-4 come-from-behind win. The winning goal was scored by Vince Antignani with 23.9 second on the clock. The game is set to start at Friday, 8 p.m. at the Castlegar Community Complex Rink. cerned with pluyer devclop- ment and honing skills than with winning all their games. but he says that is about to change. “It's time to start to focus in more on winning.” Now that the season is under way in the new year Coach Closkey will be look- ing more at how each of the players fits into the meshwork of the team and start using players in specific rolls. “We ate going to start look- ing at who will play in certain situations... it’s starting to sort itself out well,” Closkey said commenting on how he will determine who will be playing what position and when. Both coaches agree that this tournament is one that helps fill the void for the teams between Christmas, New Years and the start of regular season play in January. Both the Rockers and the Rockettes saw their first action of 1994 last night.as they hosted L.V. Rogers from Nelson for the first regular season games after the Christ- mas break. Results were still unavailable as the paper went to press. “Forget about the holidays and get back to the game plan,” Salekin said as the team pre- pare to continue their winning streak. The Rebels play again on Saturday as they host the North Okanagan Kings.

Rogers)... basi- cally it all comes down to one game, but all the games are still important,” Ritchie said The regular season will have the SHSS Rockers and teams from J.L. Crowe, L.V.
