Her time of one minute 30.44 seconds was almost a full second behind that of Holly-Beth Flanders of the United States, who won the Husky event in 1:29.50. “She made two mistakes,” said Currie Chapman, the Canadian ski team coach. “They were at the areas we call the switch-back. She was skiing too straight, and she had to fight pretty hard to get back in line with the course. “Without those two mistakes, I think she would have finished second.” Sorensen said she realized when she had completed the run that it had not been a great race. “I gues I was over-anxious when I went into some of the gates. I went into them too soon and there was not enough flow to my race.” Skiing is not officially over for Sorensen, 25, because she plans to compete in today's super giant slalom, as well as Laliberte rink wins final CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) — When it came down to draw shots, Colleen Jones ‘was good but Connie Lali- berte was one better. with her first rock in the ex- Jones, of Halifax, attempt- ed the same shot, but as her “It picked up something, I don't know what nait J in 1982 and Penny LaRocque in 1983. 10 STRAIGHT WINS The win marked the 10th consecutive triumph for the Manitoba rink, which in- cludes lead Janet Arnott, second Corinne Peters and third Chris More, after they had dropped their opening two matches. Peters, Arnott and Laliberte are sisters. Laliberte appeared shaky in the early going. “I thought I was throwing okay, I just had trouble with my darn weight,” she said. » “Chris said to me ‘Connie, this is not the game to have a bad game.

I'd like to take on the world now.” The victory ended Nova Secotia’s two year reign — Jones, of the Halifax Evening Ladies Curling Club winning wasn't worried.” The game turned in the seventh end when she was able to draw for three and take the lead. After Jones executed a flawless inturn takeout for one in the 10th end to tie the match 4-4, the Nova Scotia skip drew around a centre- line guard to the eight-foot circle. But Laliberte came up with a cold draw to the button behind Jones. On her final shot, Jones tried to the takeout but the rock cut a bit too much and wrecked on her stone in the eight-foot. Laliberte turned the final to her favor in the decisive seventh end. Her big shot was a draw down the right side of the ice OFFICE AID LUELLA ANDREASHUK 218-11th Avenue, Castlegar, B.C.

Chapman lauded Sorensen for her contribution to the women’s downhill team. “She's brought us from obscurity and being over- shadowed by the men's circuit to respectability as an Alpine nation. We're a power in downhill and we're now developing in other disciplines. It's on Gerry Sorensen’s wagon that got us there. I think Gerry and Laurie Graham deserve a_ lot of credit.” Graham, 10th in the downhill Saturday, also spoke of Sorensen’s contribution, saying, “She added a lot to the team, both results wise and in day-to-day life.” on the centre sheet — the same shot she pulled off in defeating Lindsay Sparkes of British Columbia 6-4 in the semifinal Friday night.

I got the answer, or at least a good part of it while I was teaching at Westminster Abbey at Mission. Father Mark Dumont, a tall, quiet, gentle man had come for a chat and to show me an ingenius genealogical table (family tree) which was made up of a series of inter- locking circles and number codes which was both compact and easy to follow.

Permission was granted and the story, slightly edited begins with the biography of the first member of the family to leave Europe, Mare DuMont (1844-1927) written by Rev. Mark Dumont OSB. “Little did the parents know,” he starts out, “that when they were having their 21 child, Mare DuMont, that he would become the forefather of about 140 a year of 'y military service, he then decided to travel and get some experience, and sailed to South America, round Cape Horn to North America anid landed in the British Columbia gold fields. (whether on the Fraser or in the Cariboo, it is not stated but both areas were at a fever-pitch in the search for gold in the late ‘50s and early '60s and a man could earn $60 a day — against a dollar or two for the usual wage. His passenger ticket may still be seen in the Old Hastings Mill Museum in Vancouver. In his handwriting “Elende” on the ticket a word meaning “wretched,” “miserable” — the food was poor — the weather bad and he was seasick. living in the Pacific Northwest of America 130 years later. “Nor did his son, also named Mare DuMont, know that by jumping ship in Tacoma in 1903, all of his four brothers would eventually follow him to British Columbia and settle there. “Mare DuMont (his full name was Marcus Theodor Hubert Aegidius Apollinaris DuMont) was born on Oct. 19, 1844 in Cologne, Germany, the son of a well-to-do tobacco manufacturer, Michael DuMont (1782-18565). “It may seem strange that a family with a French name would be living in Germany but 10 ‘generations earlier, at the beginning of the 16th century Marc's RINGS A BELL. . . Father Mark Dumont of Misson “Mark went on to the Oregon Territories and fought in the Walla Walla Indian uprisings‘around 1866. After the fighting had settled down he took out American citizenship but later decided to return to Europe. “By this time he felt called to the monastic life and entered the La Trappe (Trappest) Abbey in Normandy. However, in 1870 the Franco-Prussian War broke_out and feelings ran high between the French and the Germans so Marc left the monastery. “Later, at the convent school of the Sacred Heart in Paris where his sister was a nun, he met his future wife, Rosalie von Reudorffer of Munich. They were married there in the convent chapel on May 3, 1877 and moved to German family, after whom the Dumont sub- ring chimes at d from right). His ancestors came from a well-known in south Castleggr is named. an estate called Parc Languet near Rouen in Normandy, where they had eight children. “In 1890 the family moved to Antwerp in Belgium where four more children were born. Of the 20, 10 sur- vived childhood, and the first of these only died in 1960. “The five sons emigrated to British Columbia in the first decade of the 20th century. Their mother died on April 6, 1912 after suffering many years from arthritis, but the sons did not receive the news until sometime later sinee Marc's letter via Liverpool telling of her passing, and had gone down with the Titanic on April 15, 1912. “Mare was most punctilious in his weekly corres- pondence to his sons, numbering each letter as he sent it. This was the only letter lost in all those years. “At the outbreak of World War I, Mare DuMont, now 70 and a native German in an occupied country, had to flee with his two daughters to live in Bridesville, B.C. where he spent the years from 1914-1924. “Just before his 81st birthday his five sons accom- panied him to Rock Creek for his return to his native city of Cologne. Here he died on March 6, 1927, and was buried beside his wife in the cemetery at Bonn, the same cemetery in which lies the remains of the great musical genius Ludwig van Beethoven.” This family biography, having extablished, albeit briefly, the story of the founding pioneer and father of the North American branch of the family then moves on to tell of Mare Aurele Dumont Kinnaird pioneer, and estab- lisher of the Dumont subdivision, who started his career by running away from his job, that is, by jumping ship.
