Supreme Court has ordered a review board to reconsider its decision allowing a Kelowna teacher convicted Of gross indecency to resume teaching. Justice Kenneth Meredith, —in—« written decision released Thursday, said the Education Ministry’s board of reference “misinterpreted the Provisions of the School Act” in its handling of the case of teacher Gor- don Ledinski. And he said the board of refererice didn’t have the jurisdiction to rein- state Ledinski, who had been dismissed by the schoolboard. Repeated calls to Ledinski and his lawyer, Ken Connef, were not retur- ned. Ledinski was convicted in March 1988 of gross indecency for a 1987 homosexual encounter with a 15-year- old boy and fined $1,000. The boy told Ledinski he was 16 and had prior homosexual experiences. The Central Okanagan school board suspended Ledinski without Pay after he was charged Sept. 29, 1987, and fired him after his convic- tion. The review board overturned the firing and suspended Ledinski without pay for 23 months retroactive to the date he was charged. He resumed teaching for about a week last fall, sparking protests by Parents. The school board then O niversary bargains board of reference should have con- fined itself to a specific section of the School Act that allows two options. The judge said the review board must ‘‘either confirm the order 6f dismissal made by the school board, or order the school board to reinstate the teacher with or without payment of all or part of the salary lost during the period before reinstatement. “Those courses are the only ones authorized by the Statute,” the judge wrote. Although the judge said the review board was ‘‘confined to making an order’” under that Specific section of the School Act, the judge said the review board used a different section of the act_and_treated—Ledinski's dismissal as one of discipline. “That subsection seems to me to be inapplicable,”’ the judge said in his three-page decision. Although a new School Act was in: troduced last fall, the Ledinski case still comes under the previous Statue, an Education Ministry spokesman said. 2 Leave behind your cares, but bring @ block of our hotel You can stay on the shore of the world’s . most beautiful lake without getting soaked!

And while nobody wants to put Pressure-on-any-youngster with un- warranted attention, this 11-year-old has garnered the spotlight by deed. Nobody’s saying he’s the next Mike Bossy;-or even Steve Bozek for that matter, and his dad cringes when comparisons are made. Still, Shawn is something of a phenom in the ranks of atom hockey and it’s not just local hockey people whozhink so.

And the firsts don’t stop there. It’s the first time SHSS has hada girls soccer team so just about everything the players do on the field are new ex- periences for the school and the team With all this newness, one might expect at least a year of growing pains involving loss after discouraging loss. So far though, that hasn't been the case. “They're doing incredible,’ Hor- nbeck said. “Their hearts are really in it and it’s showing.”” Incredible might not be the word, Dodgers’ lost for LOS ANGELES (AP) — Orel Her- shiser, one of baseball's best pitchers since the mid-1980s, underwent exten- sive surgery on—his right shoulder Friday and will be sidelined for the rest of the season Dr. Frank Jobe, who performed the surgery, issued a brief statement through the Dodgers saying that it was determined through arthroscopic surgery that Hershiser’s shoulder required reconstruction of the an- terior capsule and tightening of 1g! for adult Ss.

LOUIS (CP) — Brett Hull scored two goals to lead the St. Louis Blues to a 4-2 victory Saturday night over the Chicago Blackhawks, locking their best- of-seven Norris Division final at three games each. The decisive seventh game is scheduled Monday night in Chicago Rich Sutter and Dave Lowry also scored for the Blues, while Denis Savard and Jeremy Roenick replied for Chicago. Hull's second goal of the game and 13th of the playoffs at 15:18 of the second period gave St Louis a 3-2 lead Hull kept the puck on the 2-on- 1 break and beat goaltender Jacques Cloutier with a slap shot from the right circle: He also scored a first-period power-play goal and missed a chance for a third when he shot high on a breakaway in the third period. Sutter made it 4-2 at 11:07 of the third period, scoring on a low shot from the right side of the net off a pass from Ron Wilson. Goaltender Vincent Riendeau made 37 saves, including 18 in the third period, for the win: but with two games under its belt, the team is a respectable 1-1. Nelson’s L.V. Rogers—team welcomed SHSS to high school soccer by beating the Castlegar team 6-1 in the first game of the season April 17. But a week later, after a few nights of practise, the local girls returned to shut out Salmo 4-0 at the SHSS field Tuesday afternoon. “They've been working extremely hard in practice — and everything came together in game two,’’ said Hornbeck, who does not teach at the high school. Team captain Jennifer Small scored twice in the first half and then com- pleted her hattrick with one in the second to lead SHSS, while playmaker Tammy Bezaire scored the third goal of the game. Goalie Shawna Slobidon posted the goose egg.

There was no indication during the game or afterward that Hershiser had a problem, but he apparently knew differently and underwent an examination Thursday morning which revealed damage to his rotator cuff. Hershiser, 31, signed a three-year contract worth $7.9 million in February 1989. He allowed six hits and five runs, all earned, walked four and struck out three in 6 1-3 innings Wednesday night. The walks were the first allowed by the right-hander this season. The goals by Savard and Roenick each came on power plays. The Blackhawks entered the game 2-for-28 with the man advantage on the road The Blues scored on their first two shots of the game and also had a goal disallowed in the first 2:30 to chase rookie goaltender Ed Belfour.

Unnecessary pressure, ‘like media attention for instance, is something he wants to make sure doesn’t spoil or otherwise give his son a false sense of- his accomplishments. it’s still-a-tong way to the pros or even junior hockey, so mom and dad naturally want to protect their son from any delusions of grandeur. Somewhat reserved, Shawn appears to take the attention in stride and isn’t looking any further than two months ahead as far as his hockey career goes. “*T made the team so I get to go to the tournament.
