2 Castlegar News June 30, 1989 : SPORTS June 30, 1989 Castlegar News 83 Rose quagmire deepens CINCINNATI (AP) — Major league baseball officials gave no in- dication Thursday of their next move in their bid to hold a hearing on charges that Cincinnati Reds manager Pete Rose bet on baseball games And the saga took a new twist when a newspaper reported some of Rose's lawyers made more than $1,600 US in campaign contributions to the judge who ruled in favor of Rose in his lawsuit against baseball. Next week Rose will seek to have his 14-day restraining order extended Baseball commissioner A. Bartlett Giamatti was in Washington, where he gave a deposition to Rose’s lawyers, and denied a compromise was in the works. Robert Pitcairn Jr., one of Rose's lawyers, had said earlier Rose’s lawyers were willing to discuss a possible settlement The deposition apparently had to do with a court date next Thursday in Rose's attempt to block Giamatti from holding a hearing or deciding his fate over the betting charges. A state appeals court declined Wed- nesday to do anything about a tem- porary restraining order granted Rose by Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Norbert A. Nadel. The 14-day order prevents Giamatti from taking CHAMP! y e Women's Bodybuilding Champions! SHIP FORM . . . Connie McLachlan, formerly of Castlegar, d in thi Interior Novice and Masters hips.

Time and effort to be recognized By GUY BERTRAND Staff Writer A little recognition goes a long way and finally the men and women who donate long hours to high school athletics will receive their due At the annual general meeting of the West Kootenay Secondary Schools Athletic Association held, Wednesday at the Hi Arrow Arms Hotel, it was agreed to recognize the people who keep athletics running throughout the year Art Maxwell, president of the KSSAA, said the award should recognize ‘long term commitment” rather than simply a coach-of-the-year award “Unfortunately we haven't had such an award before,’’ said Maxwell “People like Jack Closkey at Stanley Humphries certainly deserve the recognition.” According to Maxwell, there is a real problem with the coaching ranks at the high school level. “There are no coaches stepping forward to assume positions once Czech “ another coach steps down,”’ he said. Aside from acknowledging the coaches, nothing “earth shattering evolved from the meeting,”’ said Max- well. One motion that was tabled was the enforcement of a performance bond on the competing schools to avoid teams dropping out and no one to help cover the costs of officials for the games ““We have someone taking a look at it;?” said Maxwell, ‘Last year, two.or three sports had that problem and it got some coaches alittle upset.” Maxwell said it was still a question of how to put the bond WHO NEEDS ICE? . . . Don Davies of Castlegar gets a jump on the hockey season as he heads up Highway 3 on his roller blades. The rollers required the same movement needed to skate. So Davies, who plays in the local gentleman's leagu: hould have that extra together. “Do we make the teams pay before we allow them back from suspension or do we collect from every team in the league beforehand?” He also pointed out the problem of the extra bookkeeping involved. The league currently has the power to suspend teams. The motion may yet resurface at the next general meeting in September, Maxwell said. hopes for early release TORONTO (CP) — The No. | draft choice of the Hartford Whalers is counting on his native Czechoslovakia to relax transfer regulations. “| hope that they will lower the age limit, so I really haven’t thought about Edmonton bronzes Gretzky EDMONTON(CP) — Wayne Gret- zky will be back at Edmonton's Nor- thlands Coliseum in time for this year’s hockey season, and this time nobody can trade him A $75,000 bronze statue of the Castlegar Taxi The Old and Reliable Taxi Service LOWEST RATES IN TOWN! * 24 Hour Service * Licenced to Deliver General Freight © Charter Trips 1444 Columbia Ave. 365-7222 JULY 2 — Public Swim Brandson — 1 3:30 p.m. and 6:30-8 p.m. Public Swim Robson — 2-4 p.m. and 6:30-8 p.m JULY 3 — Suntun and Swim, 10 a.m Fitness — Complex 9-10 a.m. and 7:30-8:30 p.m. Public Swim Brandson 1-3:30 p.m. and 6:30-8 p.m. Public Swim Robson — 2-4 p.m. Red Cross Swim Lessons — Session I, Begins. 7:30-8:30 p.m. Public Swim Brandson 1-3:30 p.m. and Robson 2-4 p.m. JULY 5 — Fitness, complex, 9-10 o.m. ‘and 7:30-8:30.

(CP) — A bloop single by Randy March in the bottom of the ninth inning scored Ron White from second base to give Canada a 5-4 win over New Zealand at the world junior men’s softball cham- pionship Thursday night. The win upped Canada’s record to 11-0 and set the stage for a rematch between the two countries in tonight’s semifinal. New Zealand, the defending champion, is 9-2 As one scribe put it, the game was the greatest he'd ever seen that meant absolutely nothing Each teams was assured of the playoff meeting well before game time, but neither played like it. Players made diving catches, sparked timely rallies and on occasion blew their tops. Both benches emptied in the fourth inning when Canada’s Bob Berg slid into third base and shoved New Zealand’s Boyd Roff. March said neither wanted to lose — despite the standings “When you play for your country, statistics don’t mean much,” said the 19-year-old from Oshawa, Ont “They're playing for New Zealand and we're playing for Canada and you play the best you can every time out.”” The | momentum changed throughout with New Zealand leading 2-0, Canada going ahead 3-2 and 4-2 and the Kiwis sending the game into ex- tra innings with a two-run rally in the seventh. TENSE GAME “It was probably one of the most tense games I’ve ever been involved said New Zealand manager “It was atop performance Canada had a great chance to win it in the bottom of the eighth but a diving catch by centrefielder Jason Farrow off Colin Abbott kept the winning run from crossing the plate Linden heads NHL cast Nelson will be the site of a game featuring National Hockey League stars facing off against the Nelson Maple Leafs. Vancouver Canuck star Trevor Lin- den will head a cast of present and former NHL players in the Maple Leafs’ annual midsummer hockey game on July 8 at the Civic Centre. Linden, runner-up for the Calder Trophy as the best rookie in the NHL and named to the NHL's all-rookie team, is one of the Canucks’ brightest stars. Joining Linden will be teammate and Nelson native, Greg Adams, Trail’s Ray Ferraro, currently with the Hartford Whalers, Gord Walker, formerly of Castlegar and now skating with the Los Angeles Kings and former local big-leaguers Pat Price and Danny Gare. Game time is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. and will round off a weekend featuring a dinner roast, golf tourney and an autograph session at the Chahko-Mika Mall.

The Zuckerberg Island pond gets a breath of life as work is completed to raise the road with culverts and a drainage channel is dug out. Already walleye have been spotted in the channel. Catching up on kudos ‘To everything there is a season, and a time to every pur- pose under the sun.’ — Ecclesiastes (The Old Testament) So let us begin: First, my apologies for the doubtless myriad of things that I had promised to do during the past six mon- ths, and didn’t. Those promises were made in total sin- cerity and with every good intention and, in most cases, written down (‘‘paper never forgets’’). The trouble is that I do and the cracks in my memory are getting larger and more numerous. Please, therefore, do not hesitate to again and yet again remind me. Even Lincoln's mother, after 99 reminders of something not done by her famous son, was prepared to do so once more, ‘Or all would have gone to waste.” In this regard 1 am reminded that John Munday phoned me about two weeks ago to say goodbye before leaving for Equador and to ask me to greet all of his friends here, to express his gratitude for their many kind thoughts and words, and to express..regrets for his inability to come here for a visit as expected John’s high hopes for some miracle cure for his eyes, ears and heart were only partly realized. His sight and hearing have not been improved, only checked from further immediate deterioration, and two of his four heart bypasses have closed off so that he will.be limited in what he is able todo, physically As a consequence he is having some problems with depression. On the other hand he is arranging for a trust to take over much of his active administration at the or- phanage in Quito and has thus accepted the fact that he is not immortal. There are actually very few of us who areas I was at considerable pains to point out to him 1 have urged him to continue writing his autobiography, tentatively titled ‘Happy Mother's Day, Father. It should be fun. In the meanwhile, please take a moment to drop him a line of encouragement. In his present frame of mind he probably thinks that recent earthquake in Equador was directed at him. Next, my thanks to the mysterious person who sent me first a witty poem and then a mock admonishment on my misplaced attempts to live-ttap a pestiferous raccoon. Bunny knows but won’ t tell. Clever though Then my congratulations to Sherrel Koreen on her election as president of the Castlegar and Distrit Heritage Society. She is a dedicated and competent lady and; with the expanded directorate behind her and good community support, the Heritage Society will move smoothly into the next phase of its evolution with ease. My thanks to Burt Campbell for the opportunity for both of us to combine alittle heritage research and to visit the beautiful Crow’s Nest Pass country and the Waterton Lakes Park. That, combined with the visit to Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump project,made a won- derful six-day working holiday. Good for an entire column all on its own. I forget a lot but keep learning a little each day and that's the name of living. Verna Keraiff said recently that I couldn’t stop smiling when the latest development at the Zuckerberg Island pond — the raised road with culverts and the drainage channel on the pond — was completed a couple of weeks ago. And she was right, for though it was a relatively small operation, it was significant in an era of *‘bigis better.”” In the first place, it had a kind of cooperative, un- bureaucratic flow, starting with our letter of concern, the mayor’s carrying that concern to the B.C. Hydro meeting, our on-site study with superintendent Larry Flynn, his supportive report, the $2,000 Hydro grant, further studies and plan modifications, the con- structive approach of the Environment Ministry, the prompt cooperative action of the city engineering department, ending with a skilled operator and good supervision, and thus history was made. John Charters Reflections and recollections As a consequence, the pond has a chance to come alive again — the walleye in the channel proved that. Apprehensive citizens and disabled folk can now reach the island with solid ground under their feet and the firemen |have ready access in case of fire. It’s not finished yet, still rough, but it makes potential realities out of long-held dreams. Nice work Alex. The whole thing makes me feel that the spirit of the medieval cathedral builders is still alive and well and so | continue to smile. It’s like breaking the four-minute mile: In the meantime, the city workers are doing main- tenance on the bridge — the rail will be just a little higher and the deck a little wider; the women at the station have made wood-burned signs which Carl Koreen will use to set out some initial plant identification on the island, thus bringing the dream of an education eco-museum a Jittle closer Then there is Doris Sweeney's confused little friend, the river beaver who, unaware the beavers are not supposed to like evergreens, is doing some clear- cutting on the island’s perimeter. He (or she) will have to be live-trapped and sent elsewhere but not by me. I have already failed the course Finally, 1 would like to acknowledge with thanks the beautiful gavel made by Deon Miskell and presented by Carl Koreen at the Heritage Society's annual general meeting. The wooden mallet that I used was effective but potentially lethal. In Sherrel’s hands it symbolizes a new phase again Rotary Club welcomes executive members The Castlegar Rotary Club has a new executive. On June 27, Dick Nelson, newly elected district governor for Rotary District $08 (East and West looked for little more. The Rotary International Polio Plus eliminating worldwide and Project, childhood aimed at Kootenay, Eastern Wash and Idaho), and his wife Libby, were special guests at the club installation dinner held at the home: of retiring president Jim Gouk and his wife Ann After a brief address to some 45 Rotarians, Rotary Anns and exchange students, Nelson then installed the new executive as follows: President —Lorne Trickey; vice president — Don McDowell; secretary — Len Allen; treasurer — Len Lippa; past president — Jim Gouk The following were elected direc tors: club service — Dave Donaldson; community service — Dave Williams; vocational service — Lach Farrell and International Service — Bert Rourke After the installation, Nelson then presented each of the executive with pins of office and his own personal “Enjoy Rotary” pins In making his acceptance speech, president-elect Trickey said that he polio limiting severgl other children killer diseases as well, had been hard work but successful beyond all expectations There are no other major projects at he said, so that the club could presen| concentrate this community fellowship. Earlier in the year on commitments evening, district conference held in Spokane, the Castlegar club had been awarded the coveted Outstanding Achievement Award for its student program The program seeks to promote in- ternational peace and understanding students across the world.

Under his committee's direction, it d to enjoying Rotary a enjoying and retiring president Gouk reported that at the exchange has become the largest student ex- change program in the district’s 44 Rotary clubs. Each year, four or more Castlegar students spend a year as the guests of Rotary clubs and citizens of other countries and each an equal number, with very strong-community support, spend an equal time in this community living as members of local families and attending classes at Stanley Humphries secondary school Not only has the exchange program increased a local understanding of other cultures and educational backgrounds, it has greatly improved the career prospects of the participants and engendered many deep and lasting friendships. At the same conference, John Char- ters, chairman ,of the Zuckerberg Island Heritage Park Project commit- tee, was awarded $100 toward his $1,000 Paul Harris Fellowship sustaining fund Next May, the district conference will be hosted by the Beaver Valley Rotary Club, Nelson's home club.

Heritage Society holds annual general meeting By JOHN CHARTERS The Castlegar and District Heritage Society held its first general meeting June 15 at the Castlegar Rail Station with about 20 members in attendance. In his report to the society, retiring president John Charters outlined the history of the heritage group since its inception asa Heritage Advisory Committee in’ 1983 and its re constitution asa society i It had begun, he sai a small group of dedicated naive amadeurs anxious to save one neglected corner of our unique historical background. It is now a significant factor, with two awards and two major projects to its credit, in the growing provincial heritage picture. it has siphoned more than a quarter of a million outside dollars in works and wages into the local economy and, while not its main function, has become a major tourist attraction in the area. He recognized the contribution of the federal government, the B.C Heritage Trust, city government, local business and industry, local citizens, the Castlegar Rotary Club and tens of thousands of hours of volunteer labor by members and friends of the society Progress on the restoration of the Zuckerberg Island Chapel House and the Rail Station is moving on steadily particularly with the help of fine paid guide-restorers. The presence of the Selkirk Weavers and the Castlegar Ar ts Council at the station marks a major integration of the society and the community The first prize award for the Sunfest parade float and the $100 prize, thanks to Sherrel Koreen and her committee, was a great morale booster, Charters said In spite of frustration, delays and many hours of hard work, it has been all worth while. The society has'saved an essential part of local history, it is a real educational, cultural and economic force in the community and it is very much a part of our economic future. In handing over the gavel to the new president, Charters praised her hard work and dedication and assured her of the full support of himself and the committee in the newest phase of the evaluation of the society The new executive includes: President — Sherrel Koreen; vice president Roy Ward; secretary/treasurer — Verna Keraiff; and past president — John Charters. Directors are: Bunny Charters — ar. chivist and weddings; Helen Dunlop — historian; Darlene McDowell; Bob Mann security and safety; John Charters — publicity and public relations; Dick McLeod and ‘Byng Giraud — and general supervision; Donna Moyer — arts; Doris Sweeney — Zuckerberg Island general supervisor; Joe Killough — friends of the Island; and Nick Verigin. In the meeting which preceded the general meeting, McLeod reported on contracts negotiated for the insulation and roofing of the station. Sweeney reported on the society logo and Alex Lutz reported on the construction of the island lagoon channel and the causeway Signing of the lease agreements with the city was approved unanimously as was a motion to grant life memberships to former directors Lutz, George Apel and Getty Rempel Bunny Charters reported briefly on the B.C.
