They never retumed to the team after the holidays and attempts to contact them have been fruitless. The latest development has seen two more players defect. Rebels’ captain Dwayne Dergousoff had a falling out with Coach Ed Cooper and decided to walk, ending up with Beaver Valley. Keith Semenoff, seeing this as his last year in Junior B wanted an oppor- tunity for post season play and with the Rebels blessing was released to Trail. In view of what could be con- strued as a demoralizing situation, the team played one of their best games on Saturday, taking the Smokies to the limit before losing 3-2 when the leagues top scorer, Mike Tavaroli decided the issue with 3:20 left in the game. Short on bench strength, Derek Lalonde and Nino DaCosta were tiser & TV Tony 3 Betty Clockor psulucting vi ici 18 brought up from Midget . Their aggressive play and enthu- siasm | gave the team a spark, Chris made his felt . ing pass and put it past Kolle before ‘he could get set. The Rebels now wanting overtime with some heavy hits and Matt Kolle kept them in the game fac-: ing 42 shots compared to 28 faced by Trail netminder Brent Brad- ford. Trail got the only goals in the first period to take a 2-0 lead. Seven minutes into the second, Corey Ross got one back on a nice tip in of a Lavallee pass. Derek Lalonde tied the game up at 2-2 with his first goal as a Rebel with about six minutes left in the third with Ross again in on the play. The intensity picked up as both teams tried to end it before over- time until Tavaroli snared a clear- to apply the pressure but the Smokies played to Protect the lead and were successful . On Friday the Rebels were shut out 5-0 in Grand Forks. You can’t win games if you don’t score goals. Conversely, you can lose games by taking penalties as 4 of the 5 Grand Forks markers were of the power play vasiety. Faced with winning 7 of their last 9 games just to match Grand Forks current 31 points its safe to say that the squad will be playing the balance of the season for pride, As Trail almost found out, the Rebels can still play the role of giant killer, Bowling Highlights Monday - 9:30 am Cheryl Kinakin 240 Bev Postnikoff 640 Monday - 7:30 pm Charlene McIntosh 291/721 Roland Handley Tuesday - Nadia Stoochnoff Cathy Stewart Tuesday 7:00 pm Gord Jackson 268/700 Mable Postnikoff 304/718 Tuesday Mixed 9:00 pm Marv Wood 312/808 :Debbie Frost 310/747 . ‘Wednesday-Golden Agel2:30 pm.

Ordinarily, we do a season of per- formances from outside the region but this year we had'jo cut right back.” ; A scheduled performance last fall had to be cancelled, she said, “because we didn’t have the peo- ple power.” Last year, the arts council bad sponsored six performing arts events in Castlegar, “This year, our biggest problem is the lack of . volunteers,” she noted, Heidi Berger, the past secretary — who also found herself staying in the position without an election mandate — is worried that without an active arts council the commu- nity may well lose the ‘available federal and provincial grants to nsor arts events. “It's too bad,” she said. “If we don’t have an arts council, we * won't get all that money.” Berger and the others are still hanging in there but not without a growing sense of futility, “Over the past few years the support for the arts council has really dwindled,” said Berger. “I . am (still) a secretary because we were unable to hold an election.” However, one executive mem- ber feels the crisis is cyclical and will pass, but only as scon as new people are found, Hleonor Elstone, who has been with the afts council since its early beginnings, said in an interview . last week the problem at this point is not so much that the arts council is falling apart but that it’s been g its sphere of activities, As ‘well, the key people involved over the years have become ‘involved with other groups and projects, she noted. “In any community organiza- tion, there’s always a danger that there won't be encugh volun- teers,” said Elstone, “These things work in cycles. “We're now ina cycle that we need more ‘volun- peice because we're expanding our Prefsome people would like to retire from their Positions, 80 we need new energies.” The arts, ‘council in Castlegar has been in existence for more than twenty years.
