SPORT TRAILS

(By...Len, Walker)

Today marks my. first. anni-
versary -writing this, column in,
‘the Castle News. Sport has gone
ahead in leaps and bounds in the
past year with kids ball, senior
men, and the ‘West Kootenay
Champions, the Castlegar: Kats,
the inter-school track meet held
last summer — all‘ a hugh -suc-
cess. Basketball was the main

Sport this past winter as well as.

a bo: club which had some-
thing Jike 50 members, All in all
it has been’ a. good year, even if
some of my predictions were a
little off the beam.

With the announcement last
week that. three imports have
arrived to play softball and bas-
-ketball, it looks like. the com-
ing yeariwill be even more suc-
cessful than the last.

Castlegar. has tried for years .

to have a championship senior
men’s ball club, and from what
I have heard no one has tried
harder to reach that goal than
our own Gerry Wanless, who has
put in long hours with various
teams. Gerry has never given
up trying and I for oné would
like to see Castlegar go all out
this seaspn_to. fulfill” Gerry's
dream ofa championship.

From this day forward Castle
gar, I believe, should let every-
one know. that-we-are.in-the sport
picture and that we will take a
back seat to. no one.
LACROSSE

Sunday afternoon I took in
the lacrosse game between Trail

. Ba
and Castlegar. This was ‘the first
game that I have. ever. witness-
ed and*:I. can, well: understand
after -seeing it. that the Indians’
were the originators of. this sport
for it looked like someone would
be scalped by an opposing play-
er at any time.

Castlegar took an early lead
and never were headed, winning
handily 11 to 6. Ewan Wallace-
led the local attackers with 6
goals. Walt Poogy picked up 3.
Bob Moffat led the Trail team
with 3 goals.

Fred Horkoff played spectacul-
arly in the Castlegar goal, beat-
ing the Trail players time—after
time. Paul Zanet playing rover
for the locals, played a good
game but failed to score when
he hurridly shot three -or four
times missing the goal by inch-
es. Rudy .Martini and Butch
Hulburt on two different occa-
sions in the final period, dropped
their sticks and went at it with
fists, but no damage was done
as players from both sides pulled
them apart.

HOCKEY

The Detroit Red Wings who

took Toronto out of the playoffs

‘in four straight games scoring

13 goals to Toronto's 3 have tak-
en a strangle hold on the finals
by downing Montreal Canadiens
3 straight games. by scores of
3 to 1; 2 to 1, and 3 to 0. De-
troft should take the cup in

. A straight- games if-they. do, it

will be the first time that a
team has gone through the-play-
offs undefeated that is 8
straight games.
