Tassone Leads Rebels to Victory

By ROY GOETTING
Castlegar Rebels’ Bruno
Tassone had a great night
Friday on home ice, scoring a
hat-trick in the Rebels’ 8 to 6
win over Rossland Warriors.
Warriors’ John Carron got
the first goal of the game at
sz, 18:24 of the first period,
assisted by Rick Woodhouse
and John McMaster. Rebels’
goaltender Tim Stubbins was
* injured on the play and was
unable to continue in the game.
He was replaced by Larry
Ingham.

Castlegar tied the game at
one apiece on Ken Sherstobi-
toff's goal, unassisted, at 13:58,
Rossland’s second goal came at.
17:25 by Bob Godfrey from Bill
Nazaroff, followed one minute

} later by Rebels’ second goal by
Ken Sherstobitoff from Dave
Kanigan and Bruce Martin,

Each team drew six min-
utes in penalties. Shots on goal
by Castlegar were 17, by Ross-
land 16.

In the second period, each
team acquired two more goals.
Bob Godfrey scored unassisted
at 6:53 for Rossland and Mike
Oliver hit the marker from

Bruno Tassone, No. 3, chaulks up a hat trick

John Carron and Robbie Martin
at 16:55.

For the Rebels, Dave Kani-
gan scored at 14:20, assisted by

FAY FODOR has_ been
named recreation program
director for Regional Recrea-
tion Commission No. 1. Miss
Fodor, who Is a Stanley
Humphries Secondary Schoo!
graduate with two years at
Selkirk College and one year
at the University of British
Columbia, will be filling the
vacancy created with the
resignation of Bill Chow who
will be leaving for Vancouver
at the year’s end. Miss Fodor
Is very familllar ‘with the
workings of Regional Recrea-
tlon Commission No. 1, hav-
Ing served as its summer
program co-ordinator for the
past six summers.

jon Then Terry
Halisheff tied the game at four
each from Ken Sherstobitoff
and John Josafatow at 16:24.

The second period was not
a good period to watch. Ross-
Jand drew three two-minute
penalties, one four-minute, one
five-minute, and one 10-minute
— for a total of 25 minutes.
Castlegar drew four two-min-
ute penalties, one five-minute
and two 10-minute, for a total of
33 minutes.

Some fans I talked with
during the intermission were
very unhappy, to say the least,
with a few of the players.

Rebels’ coach Darwin Mott
despises goon hockey — as do
most, if not all, the coaches in
this league. There will always
be penalties in the game, but I
think they should be accidental
in nature, not intentional.

Shots on goal by the
Rebels were 14, by the War-
riors, 10, Score at the end of the
second period was’ 4-all.

Some lucky fan won $115
on the Maloney “Scoro” game.
That will sure come in handy,
especially at this time of year.
That is only one of many prizes
that are won each game from
lucky program numbers.

While I'm on the subject of
luck, I hope that all our readers
have a ticket for tonight's
exhibition hockey game be-
tween Team B.C. and a fortified

Castlegar Rebels. Five $100
prizes will be drawn during this
game.

The most outstanding Ju-
nior B players in the province
are on this team. So don’t miss
this one chance this year to
see the best. Our Bruno Tas-
sone is on this team, but he
will be playing for the Rebels
tonight.

Back to the third period...
I'm not sure what coach Molt
said to our young men during
the intermission, but they
played the third period without
getting a penalty. Bruno Tas-
sone got the Rebels’ fifth goal
at 6:30 from Ken Sherstobitoff
and Terry Halisheff, and our

and 29, drawing hockey
teams from Trail, Nelson,
Rossland, Grand Forks and

Mike Nevakshonoff and, finally,
Tassone got his hat-trick at

If you don’t think staying

was Rebels 8, Warriors 5.

The next regular game for
the Rebels will be Dec. 23 at 8
p.m. The opposition will be the

nice to end the year with a
viclory over Spokane. Santa,

Winter Sports Buffs
Warned of Hazards

A macabre combination of
winter conditions is creating an
unusual hazard in many parts of
British Columbia, especially in
the north, according to the B.C.
Snow Vehicle Association.

‘Thin ice on numerous lakes
has been covered by deep and
early snows — which not only
conceal the danger but prolong
it, by insulating the water and
ice from the cold winter air.
This situation, says the BCSVA
is deadly for snowshoers, cross-
country skiers, snowmobilers,
and especially for ice-fishermen
and for ski-planes.

W. C. (Bill) Shields, sec-
retary-manager of the associa-
tion, says a survey of weather
and outdoors officials around
the province reveals ‘another
complicating factor. Due to
shifting winds, snows will drift
into various patterns on the
lakes, allowing cold air to
thicken ice in bared patches
while increasing _ insulation
nearby.

“Then, if the wind shifts,”
says Shields, “the snow will
move again, making it impos-
sible to gauge where the snows
lie on solid ice and where they
do not.”

The BCSVA urges all win-
ter sports enthusiasts to use
extreme caution, and to stay off
the lakes unless they have

checked conditions thoroughly
with the loca! authorities. Fol-
lowing someone else's track is
ho assurance that the ice is
thick enough to support ano-
ther.

“A snowmobile, for ex-
ample, travelling at high speed
may make it over a thin spot
where someone else may not,”
says Shields.

“Cross-country skiers have
no assurance of safety either, as
the pressure exerted on the
surface by the skis is approxi-
mately the same as that of a
snowmobile — 1/2 pound per
square inch. Skates, of course,
exert even more pressure. Play
it safe and avoid the lakes
unless it is absolutely certain
they are safe. Don't let the next
statistic be you.”

No running.
No walking.
No exercise.
No effort.
Penalty —

a shorter life.
No argument.

Fitnessis fun.
Try some.

Blueberry Recreation Release

A report on the recent
fourth annual Blueberry Christ-
mast Fair and other activities

the recent monthly meeting of
the group.

The Christmas fair was
highly successful. again this
year, with an estimated crowd
of over 2,000 people attending
the two-day event. The bake

the array of goodies that dis-
appeared quickly. The com-
munity support from everyone
in Blueberry Creek is greatly

appreciated by the commission.

Treats are again being
supplied for distribution by
Santa at the Blueberry Creek

plex from 7 to 9 p.m. with

mission.

Young Local Bowlers
Entered in B.C. Finals

Fifteen young local bowl-
ers travelled to Kelowna on

two girls would make the mixed
