10 "CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, Feb, 27, 1964 THIS WEEK -~AND NEXT €anadian Troops To Help Police By RAY ARGYLE The offer of Canadian troops to Cyprus as mem: bers ‘of an international peace-keeping force is in line with this country's policy of helping to keep brush-fire wars from burst: ing into mafdr disturbances. At time of writing, it is not yet ‘clebr what, the com. plexion of the Cyprus peace-keeping mission will be, or whether Canadian troops will actually parti: cipate. The steady deterioration of the'situation on th . iterrafean island, ‘however. ‘g A ddriands in: a ternational cou trol. either. un- der NATO ior the United Na- _ tions. Aside trom strict- siderations of avoiding un- necessary bluodshed, the Cyprus squabble raises the spectre of twu o: our NATO allies — Greece and Turkey — going .o war against each other on the very flank of the Soviet Union. The fact that these two countries ieei they can even contemplate such action without fear of Soviet in- tervention ts further evi- dence of the ufting of fear of a global nuclea: war. With the nuclear threat apparently de tused in East-War diplomacy, there will probably be ar increas- ing number of isolated out- breaks involving individual non-Communist countries. Cyprus has been prim- arily a Britis) problem during the past decade. Lying only 40 miles from the Turkish shore, its 600,- 000 populatio. is four- fifths Greek. The majority of these wanted the former * British colony to be united with Greece. The island’s Turks, on the other hand, wanted Cyprus partitioned so they could have their own inde pendent corner. Brita rightly rejected both courses and gave the tsland independence. Archbishop Makarios of the Greek Orthodox church became president, and elected to keep the country in the British Commonwealth Baset by many economic difficulties not the least of which {is a serious shortage - of water for trrigation. the new nation started lite under a precarious consti- tution designed to protect the rights of the Turkish minority. The current uxtbreak of tiots- and street fighting can be traced to attempts by President Makarios to change the constitution so as to weaken the influence of the minority Turks. The sland’ obviously could not be left to fester as a Mediterranean Congo. As countries such as Bel- gium and even Canada have learned, achieving peace between different racial stocks is not an easy accomplishment. In the case of Cyprus, where its people can be easily in: flamed and where there is uo long tradition of respon: sible government, it will take many years to over. come present difficulties By internationalizing the . problem, there is less danger of the island falling Brey to a desputic dictator- ship — either nationalistic or communistic. The pres ence of. outside influences also serve to Strengthen peace in the Mediterranean, especially between Greece and Turkey. Canadian participation in Laos, the Congo and the Suez has given this country a high reputation as an impartial arbiter of ivcal differences. Our entire military establishment should be dedicated to this single cause of interna- . tonal peace-keeping. CONGRATULATIONS FROM FOFE.

The pre- sent and prospective new execu- tive, who witnessed these games, had their eyes’ opened and ‘must concede that losses logged by the teams should not be ‘charged whol- ly to lack of player ability, but to the present: structure of our league system. The Pee Wee rep team provided local fans with one of the best exhibitions of sports- manship and determination we have seen this season and coach Ed Isakson is very pleased’ with the play of these young’stars.'"” The Trail Pee Wee's who have played together all season in the scores of 3 to 2 and 4 to 1, Local second look at their rep team setup. Limited” practice’ together and few competition games proved Midgets, while in the Juvenile ser- jes we saw the emphasis put. on body punishment and noticed that flagrant use of the hickory. Secondary interest in that rub- ber disc often left-the opposition in scoring position and our own goalie unprotected. Juvenile play now allows body contact, a condition of play that usually separates the men from the boys and our three Midgets called up to fill the juvenile roas- ter are to be commended for a courageous and determined effort. Officiating during’ the © play-off series left few complaints — all games kept under control and- no protests, Officiating by our local volun- teer referees appears above par, and fan abuse, a hazard of the trade, has seemingly little effect on the confidence and nerve of these hockey gendarmes. -The Midget rep team made a trip to Spokane for a match with midgets south of the border, while pickup ‘team “of bantam and mid- gét players took on the Air Cadets in a Saturday afternoon meet. Sunday the Castlegar Sports- mans’ Club challenged their Nel- son counterpart in a rough and tumble game that provided many. laughs for the attending fans.
