, as Castlegar News March 19, 1986 On The Street... QUESTION: What do you think of free trade with the United States? ~ Dan Latkin It depends on what we're looking at. It'll hurt our lumber exports. Plotnikoff I don’t think there is free trade with the U.S. If there is an agreement, it'll be one-sided any: way. Shelley Gray I guess It's OK, but I don’t really know enough about it. i m~ West Taylor I think it’s a hell of a good idea, with some concessions. It depends how far they carry it (and) if they (the U.S.) don't take advantage of Brian Pinter I love it. It'll increase the value of our dollar and provide consumers a better opportunity to buy products they want at the price they want. Brian Wood T'm in favor of free trade with the U.S. The more we can do for Canada as far as trade is concerned the better off we are. Group to promote city Destination — Castlegar is the name chosen to promote Castlegar as a seminar, con- ference and convention des- meeting Monday night a group representing the Castlegar and District Chamber of Commerce, ho- tels, and the private sector, met to discuss the feasibility of promoting Castlegar as a workshop, meeting and con- ference site. A report prepared by chamber Tourism Marilyn Strong revealed that conferences and workshops brought in almost $3 million worth of business to the Castlegar area in 1985. “There was very little promotion work done to en- courage that business,” said Strong, who is also the new group's chairman. “The report outlines the potential for conferences in 1986 and with a proper strategy to promote and market the city and its facilities, the opportunity to increase the workshop and conference business is trem endous,” she added. Part of the marketing and support program will include presentations to local organ izations to encourage them to think about Castlegar as be- ing the host city for their own regional or provincial meet. ings. The chamber of commerce will provide support and as sistance to the organizers. This could include assistance with a presentation as to Castlegar’s accommodation and restaurant facilities, halls and complexes, things to do in the off hours. Jim Young, committee member and manager of the Sandman Inn, says he's ex cited about the proposal. “Any promotion efforts by the chamber to bring in con ferences and workshops will only enhance Castlegar’s at tractive position as the MARILYN STRONG ... heads group Crossroads of the Kootenays. With Trail working to be- come the sports centre for Canada, Castlegar’s promo- tion to become the confer. ence and meeting centre, complements the impression that there really is something to see and do in the Koot enays.” Farewell tea held A farewell tea honoring Shirley Glueheisen was held recently at the home of Bar- bara Poznikoff.

Waneta plaza Dionne ties Esposito on NHL scoring list By the Canadian Press His teammates call him Lou because of his likeness to comedian Lou Costello but when it comes to a Marcel Dionne usually has the last laugh. Dionne, a likeable fireplug from Drummondville, Que., joined another hockey hero with a sense of humor in the National Hockey League ree- ord books Tuesday night when he recorded an assist in Les Angeles’s 5-2 triumph over Washington Capitals. The assist gave the vet- eran Kings centre 1,500 points over his 15-year NHL career and moved him into a tie with Phil Esposito for second spot on the league's all-time scoring list. Only Gordie Howe has more, with 1,850. The assist, which came on Dave Taylor's goal at 5:28 of the first period, also allowed Dionne to take over second spot on the all-time assists list. It was Dionne’s 927th and snapped a tie with Stan Mikita. In other games, it was: Hartford Gretzky also had two as- sists to improve his season total to 197 points, 15 off his single-season record. In Landover, Md., John Paul Kelly scored twice to help the Kings down the Capitals. Kelly had only two goals in 52 previous games but he mat that total Tuesday as the Kings pre- WORLD CURLING Canadians By GORDON GRANT DARTMOUTH, N.8. (CP) — The junior men's world curling championship has be- come predictable: Canada and Scotland win and the other rinks scramble for a playoff spot. The Canadians and Scot- won both their games Tues- day, running their records to six wins and no losses, well ahead of the pack. There's a logjam in third place for the final two playoff spots: Swe- den, Switzerland, West Ger- many and Norway are at 3-3. Denmark and the United States still have a chance at 2-4 and Italy is out of con- tention at 0-6. With Canada and Scotland sure to make the final four, the other two semifinalists probably won't be deter- mined=gntil after the last draw of the round-robin seg- ment Thursday night. In the sixth round Tuesday night, Kevin Martin of Ed. mopton nipped Markus Eg- gler of Switzerland 4-2 and David Aitken of Scotland thrashed Lionel Tournier of France 14-1. In other games, Deiter Kolb of West Germany set a number of records in shut ting out Stefano Ferronato of Italy 13-0; Jorgen Larsen of Canada claims bronze medal GENEVA (CP) — Cynthia Coull and Mark Rowsom claimed a bronze for Canada in the pairs event while Brian Orser moved back on track in his quest fo rar a medal after the second day of competi at the world figure skating championships. Coull, of Greenfield Park, Que., and Rowsom, of Com ber, Ont., finished third Tuesday after moving up a noteh in the standings with a strong performance in the free skate. “It really hasn't sunk in yet, but I think it will some- time in the middle of the ." Rowsom said of his performance. The Soviet duo of Eka tarina Gordeeva, 14, and Ser. gei Grinkov, 19, captured the gold. The pair won Monday's short program and relegated defending champions Elena Valova and Oleg Vasiliev to second place with a techni- cally sound long program. Competition continues to day with the compulsories in ice dance and the women’s short program. Orser, the six-time Can adian men’s champion from ish: Ont., turn “I knew today that I had to go out and not show any caution and give it every- thing I had, which I did,” said Orser, silver medallilst at the 1984 Olympics and runner-up at the worlds last year. “I think what fired me up even more was skating right be hind Fadeev.” Orser can win the gold medal if he wins the free- skating portion on Thursday night and Fadeev is third or lower in the free skate, worth 50 per cent of the final mark. Tracey Wainman of Tor- onto finished fifth in the women’s compulsory figures in her first appearance before world championship judges since 1981 She was sixth in the first figure and second in the final two, but figure skating’s complicated marking system left her in fifth. Elizabeth Manley of Ottawa was 11th, one spot lower than her figures position last year when she was ninth overall. Kira Ivanova of the Soviet Union led after the figures, followed by U.S. champion Debi Thomas in second and ed in a flawless effort to win the free skate Tuesday and move into third place from his fifth-place result in the compulsory figures. Soviet skater Alexander Fadeev, the defending cham- pion, was second in the pro- gram, but retained the over all lead ahead of Jozef Sab- oveik, the European cham- pion from Czechoslovakia. world Katarina Witt of East Ger- many in third. The third-place finish in the pairs represented Can- ada’s fourth medal in the last four years at the world championships. Barbara Un. “derhill and Paul Martini won a bronze in 1983 and a gold in 1964. Katherina Matousek and Lloyd Eisler collected a bronze last year. vented the Capitals from taking over first place in the consecutive victories at home, remained one point behind the division-leading Los Angeles, 1-8-1 in its visiting Winnipeg Jets. Kurri, Mark Mess: Glenn Anderson, Dave Hun- ter and Raimo Summanen seored before Gretzky got his 50th. Anderson's goal was his 10th to beat Scott Brown of the United States 87 and Bjoern Ulshagen of Norway beat Peter Larsson of Swe- den 7-3. In the fifth round it was Canada 7, Norway 5; Scot- land 9, West Germany 4; Sweden 9, Denmark 6; and the United States 7, France 2. The West Germans set a record by stealing seven con- secutive ends and by scoring in the most consecutive ends. The steals record erased the previous mark of five, set in 1982 by Sweden, tied by Denmark and West Germany in 1984 and tied again by Canada against West Ger- many on Sunday. By scoring in seven con. secutive ends, the West Ger- mans erased the previous 52nd of the season. and tied by Canada on Sun- day. The Italians, the youngest team in this year's cham- pionship, tied the record of four others for the lowest score in a game, zero. But the only real excite- ment so far in the tourna- ment has involved Canada. In the sixth round, Martin and his crew curled well and hit when they needed to in edging Switzerland, but going down to the final end in a hit-and-roll game to cement the victory. In the fifth draw, the Can- adians had their fans edgy by not curling well in the early ends. However, they were aided by the Norwegian skip who made-costly blunders. Selects beat Olympic team CALGARY (CP) — Coach Igor Dimitriev of Moscow Selects enjoyed the game more than the partisan audi ence he was trying to please in Tuesday's exhibition hoc- key game against Team Canada. “If we win by goals, that's just right,” said Dimitriev after his team took care of the Canadian Olympic team 73. “But when we come to Canada, if we can put on a show for the fans, that’s what we're here for.” But the 4,373 supporters of Team Canada were more frustrated than entertained by the rapid-fire Selects. A three-goal outburst in a span of three minutes and 30 seconds in the third period salted away the Moscow vic tory in the opener of an eight-game Canadian tour Territorial play was close to even — both sides had 26 shots on goal and the Cana dians stayed out of the pen. alty box. The Selects were tagged with seven of the game’s 10 minor penalties. “Boy, you can't let down like that,” said Dave King, Team Canada's general man ager and coach. “If they get one, you can't look to getting it back on the very next shift. You can't give them up in bunches. You struggle so hard to get one, then you give back two. “Psychologically, it's really taxing on the players.” VISITORS HIT FAST It took only 16 seconds for Moscow to strike. Forward Sergey Pryakhin set up Ser gey Kharin, who beat goal- tender Alain Raymond with a sizzling shot from the faceoff circle. It was the first of four assists for Pryakhin. Pryakhin also set up Khar in later in the first and the Selects took a 2-0 lead into the dressing room. Although they dominated the second and held the Sel ects to only four shots on goal, the best the Canadians could do in that period was narrow the deficit to 2-1. “We took a lot of shots, but their goalie (Yuri Schundrov) didn’t have to use his arms or legs to stop any of them,” said King. “We shot right into his body, or we missed the net. We had eight scoring chances, but he wasn't forced to use his arms and legs once.” Igor Vyazmikin, Sergey Osipov and Valery Shiriaev scored for the Selects in the first half of the third period. That three-goal outburst came after the Selects had successfully killed four con secutive penalties. Vyazimikin scored on the power play when Trent Yaw- ney was off the ice for closing his hand on the puck. CHAMPIONSHIP . . . Member of Stanley Jr. the basket, while J:L. Crowe player tries to Rockettes takes a shot at the shot during West Kootenay game day night. the title. beat Crowe 44-34 to win _ CosNews Photo by Phd Colderbont I Jr. Rockettes win title Stanley Humphries Junior Rockettes won the West Kootenay basketball championship in a tournament played at SHSS Saturday. The victory marked the k ’ third pulling to 39-82 but could get no further. Final score was 44-34 for the Stanley Humphries girls. Goolieff led all scorers with 14 points followed closely by West Kootenay crown and sixth in the past nine years. FIRST ROUND BLOWOUTS Both semi-finals saw lopsided results as J.L. Crowe ff with 11. Lees had eight. Braun and Lori Kinakin had four each; and Pakula netted five. Rockettes’ coach Doug Pilatzke complimented his team. “The girls were ready to play when the game started, Hawkettes punished Rossland Royals 44-27 and the local Rockettes mauled Trafalgar 53-23. Against the Totems, leader guard Kim Lees led the sharpshooters with 16 points while Arla Goolieff and Shelly Pakula hit for nine points each. Jenny-Rezansoff, playing the best basketball of her season, added seven points; Pamela Braun and Lucy Cardoso had four points each; Vicki Gritchen had three points; and Carrie Gorkoff added one point. In the consolation game, Trafalgar was an upset winner over Rossland 33-30 to grab a third place finish. EARLY MOMENTUM In the championship game the Castlegar girls’ preparation was evident as they bolted out of the gate to take an early 16-3 lead Halfway through the second quarter the locals extended their margin to 22-5 before the Hawkettes settled down and began to hit some shots. Rockettes were in front 29-16 at the half. The Trail girls’ determination was evident in the third quarter as they whittled the Castlegar lead to a slim five points 31-26 before the local hoopsters pulled themselves together defensively. The Hawkettes made a final run in the last quarter and the big lead they ran up made things so much easier for them,” he said. “We didn't have to worry about playing catch-up.” Pilatzke singled out some individuals for special recognition. “Kimmy Lees and Shelly Pakula provided us with great leadership from the guard position, especially against the Trail press.” “Pamela did a commendable job of blanketing Crowe's high scoring Lori Avid, limiting her to nine points. “Jenny and Arla, two Grade 9 starters played very well rebounding and drawing fouls,” he said. “I thought Lori Kinakin was a key for us in that game. She substituted for three different players, got some rebounds, got fouled, scored a couple of hoops . . . it was nice to see her play well.” Pakula and Rezankoff were selected as second team Allstars while Braun joined Goolieff on the first All-star team Lees was selected as Most Outstanding Player. The Rockettes finish the season with 23 wins against only two losses, and with both the Grade 7 and Grade 8 teams having outstanding seasons, prospects for next year are bright, said Pilatzke.

Campbell's hiring ended speculation that had pre vailed since Kimall left to be come president and part owner of Montreal Alouettes on March 4. The Eskimos had considered two main can didates for the job — Camp bell and Dave Williams, the team's marketing manager Campbell and club presi dent Rex Boake completed details Monday night in Hou ston, where Campbell and his family have remained since he was fired as head coach of the National Football League Oilers in December.

He joined Houston before the 1984 season, hired by the Oilers at least partly to help lure another former Eskimo, quarterback Warren Moon, to the NFL team. Campbell had an 8-22 rec- ord with Houston, improving the Oilers from 1-15 the year before he arrived, to 3-13 in 1984 and 59 before he was fired with two games left in the 1985 schedule.
