-Lions-Bombers match aclassic

By The Canadian Press

The last time B.C. Lions and Winnipeg Blue Bombers
met ina Canadian Football League game that counted, hype
ran rampant and so did the Bombers, who won 31-14 to
advance to the Grey Cup.

After clobbering the Lions in the Western Division final
last fall, the Bombers went on to win the league champion-
ship against Hamilton Tiger-Cats in an anti-climax.

When the Bombers and Lions bégin their eagerly
awaited back-to-back series before a sold-out crowd at
Winnipeg Stadium today, the division championship won't
be at stake.

But first place in the West —currently held by the Lions
— is on the line and the Bombers, two points back, want at
least to be even going into next Friday's return match in
Vancouver.

“This two-game series has been on the back of our
minds, we've been well aware of it for a long time,” said
Bombers’ quarterback Tom Clements. “We'll be ready.”

In the only other CFL game today, the Ottawa Rough
Riders entertain Toronto Argonauts. E

Alleyes, however, will be on the clash between the two

Western powerhouses in Winnii

It’s a classic matchup, the first time the clubs have met
in a game that counts for something since the Western’
Division final last fall. The Lions, of course, haven't
forgotten. 2

As well, the Bombers have won 15 home
games dating back to 1983, but the Lions haven't been
beaten in five road games this season.

While Winnipeg has scored more points than any other
CFL team this season, the Lions have allowed less than any
other. club.

5 NOT HEARD
And when it's all finished today, fans will have next

week's game to look forward in B.C. Place Stadium, where’ -

last year Clements couldn't shout audibles loud enough to be
heard.

But an important ingredient for Winnipeg — head coach
Cal Murphy — will be missing and defensive coach Fred
Glick will be calling the shots.

Murphy suffered a mild heart attack last weekend and
won't be with the Bombers, 9-3, for either of the two games
against the Lions, 10-1.

But another old warhorse — veteran centre John Bonk
— will be returning to the field after a two-game absence due
to injury.

Glick said ihe return of Bonk, a 12-year veteran who had
played in 202 consecutive games before being injured, will

help'make up for the loss of Murphy.
“Whether they actually are, the fact John's there will
instantly make the guys feel like they are stronger,” Glick

_said. “I'm glad he's going to be there.”

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Al Rosen, San
Francisco Giants’ new president and general manager,
has fired one coach and three trainers and reassigned
three other coaches with the National League baseball
team..

Rosen, who also promised~plenty of changes
among the players on the worst team in the NL West,
released batting coach Tom McCraw and trainers
Perry Archibald, Gary Iacini, and Tokita Tadao.

Rosen said he plans to start trading players soon.

“I'd hate like hell to go into the winter meetings
without having made a trade, and then have to make
one there,” he said.

BLYLEVEN SIGNS

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota Twins pitcher
‘Bert Blyleven has-signed a new multi- -year contract
reported to be worth $3.5 million.

Club president Howaard Fox announced Blyle-
ven's signing late Friday after the American League
team completed a game with Cleveland Indians:

“I was happy to get it done,” Fox said later in an
interview. “But I felt that when we traded for him we
had a goed chance of signing him:”

Terms of the contract were not disclosed but the
Minneapolis Star and Tribune reported that Blyle-
ven's contract gives him a guaranteed deal through
1987 with an option for 1988.

Mark Moors did a good job filling in for Bonk, but Lions’
linebacker. Glen Jackson said the veteran's return to

"Winnipeg's offensive line will help the Bombers consider-

ably.
*vthe guys on that line have played with Bonk for a few

years,” he said. “There's no disputing that they're more used
to playing -with Bonk.,

“That means there are less things that can throw “them J

off, because they're used to being with each other.”

Clements was ineffective last week in a 27-24 upset loss .
to the Ar He was ly under p from
the Argos’ defensive line, led by James Curry.

Winnipeg's offensive line coach, John Gregory, said
Bonk will help nullify the Lions’ rush, which is one of the
most fierce in the league.

Also expected to return to Winnipeg's lineup. is wide
receiver James Murphy, who has been hampered by
hamstring pull, and linebacker Gary Moten, who will replace
Frank Robinson.

The Lions, meanwhile, will have backup quarterback
Tim Cowan back on the sidelines but injured defensive back
Andre Jones is doubtful and will likely be replaced by Kerry
Parker.

B.C. defensive co-ordinator Greg “Newhouse said it's
quite a challenge coming up with a defensive strategy that
will stop the high-powered Bombers’ offence.

Reflections
& recollections

article starts off with the story of Bill being honored in
Victoria with a Fellowship of the British Columbia
Chamber of Commerce. It then mentions that he was
president of the Castlegar Chamber in 1951 and president
of the Associated Board:of Trade and Commerce of
Southern British Columbia in 1956 and again in 1965.

The report gives a brief summary of chamber
activities until the early 80s one would gather from an
interview with Bill.

“The first items of major concern were to-get a bank
and liquor store into Castlegar. Both items were
accomplished in a short period of time.

“The Castlegar airport was also an early project of
the chamber. It publicized the idea of having the district
airport at this location, and it came to be.

“Early in the 50s, Castlegar joined the British
Columbia Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce.

“The chamber worked diligently for about 10 years
to get the southern trans-provincial highway through
Castlegar. It participated, along with Greenwood and

Castlegar
Chamber 39
years old

Before Castlegar was'a city. or even.a town or a
village, it had a chamber of commerce — or to be more
accurate, a Board of Trade, as it was known 39 years ago.
It was organized, according to the late Art Anderson who
was a of the chamber, with one
fundamental objective in view: “To make our. community
a better communi

Its first president was the late Ralph \ West and it had
a charter ip of 40. The pop of Castlegar
at this time was about 700 — not a bad start. Over the 39

years of its existance the chamber has had 33 presidents,
32 men and one woman, and the membership has chosen
this weekend to recognize them. __

Most of these names are familiar to those of us who

request little time is available for research, though media
coverage. over the years has been excellent.

However, with the hope of establishing some basic
information for. my hoped-for-book onthe history of.
Castlegar and District, I have donoe a hasty scan of
several recent scrapbooks, kindly supplied for me.

According to a an article by Craig Weir in from the
1980 issue of the Trade and Commerce Magazine:

“Twenty-five years ‘ago, Castlegar was little more
than a crossroads village through which one passed en

Grand Forks, in ek from Paulson to Kinnaird, to
ize the feasi ity of the route.

“In the fall of the same year members met with Phil
Gaglardi and, discussed their trek with him,*and got
assurance that this route would be carefully considered
before deciding the location of Highway 3 between the
Columbia River and Christina Lake. a

“The chamber prodded the government for 20 years
to get the section of highway from Brilliant to Meadows
completed and in service.

Most recently the chamber, represented by Mary
Anderson, chairman of the local Expo 86 committee, has
become involved in the participation of Castlegar in the
Expo activities. This is seen a boost to tourism and the
establishment of more permanent benefits to the

route to such southeastern British Columbia centres as
Trail and Nelson. Today, Castlegar confidently proclaims
itself the Hub City of the West Kootenay district, and
current developments indicate that the slogan is based on

much-more-than-wishful thinking by the “Chamber-of —

"were doing quite well and didn't see, any great need for a
lively Chamber,’ Oglow said. “But so much started
happening in-1979 particularly that we found-ourselves
trying to cope on an ad hoc basis with more and more
demands for information and statistical data from across
Canada and the United States.”
5 “The result: In February 1980, the Castlegar
Chamber of Commerce opened a central office and
installed Gloria Thomson as full-time manager. In
addition, plans are being made to relocate and enlarge a
tourist information booth in the expectation that sign-ins
will increase from 2,400 during the summer of 1979 to
over 10,000 this year.”
