TICATS NOT SAME TEAM THEY WERE HAMILTON (CP) — Tiger-Cats’ OVER CONFIDENCE TO. BLAME Jets having their problems this year. WINNIPEG (CP) — Win- nipeg Jets began the. Na- tional» Hockey League cam- paign with visions of over- taking Stanley Cup Coach Barry Long has re- fuséd to panic,.. especially over the disappointing pro- duction of the Jets’ prime unit of Dale huk, Paul Edmanton Oilers, but the club is having trouble staying —above .500. © The Jets finished fourth overall in the NHL last sea- son with 96 points and were eliminated from post-season play by the Oilers in the Smythe Division final. Few changes were made in the off-season and the only major deal was a trade with Quebec Nordiques in October that brought veteran goalie Dan Bouchard to Winnipeg. A good start saw the Jets go on a six-game unbeaten streak and post a 6-4-1 record in their first 11 outings, in- luding a convincing 9-3 _ drubbing of the Oilers at the Edmonton Coliseum. November has been ano- ther story. The Jets have sputtered to 7-9-2 and are in fourth place in the Smythe, 10 points be- hind the Oilers. Winnipeg lost four straight and went five games without a win before knocking off New Jersey Devils 5-3 last Friday. That was followed by a 5-4 loss to Calgary Flames on Sunday night. “Overconfidence is what starts a slump,” says Jets’ defenceman’ Robert Picard.- “We came off a great month of October and we looked at the end of the tunnel in November. “We thought we would have some easy wins and we ended up losing games we never should have lost.” MacLean and Brian Mullen. LEADS SCORING Winnipeg's top scoring line, to date is the bump-and- dump threesome of Laurie Boschman, Perry. Turnbull and Scott Arniel, which has accounted for 59 points. The Hawerchuk unit has 57 points. Boschman, assessed a one- game suspension after draw- ing his third misconduct of the season Sunday night, is tied with -Hawerchuk * and MacLean as the team's: top scorers. Each’ has 22 points. Long. says there's a lot of frustration over the slump, but adds it’s only a.matter of time until the Jets return to their form of last spring. He's been stressing a re- turn to the basics and a change in attitude to turn things around. “On certain occasions we get down on ourselves,” Long said. “When other teams score goals, we have a tendancy to let up. Nelson hammers ‘hapless Smokies By The Canadian Press Nelson Maple Leafs seem- ed to feel a little guilty after hammering hapless Trail Smoke Eaters 9-2 in Western International Hockey League play Tuesday night. “Trail is not a team that should lose 9-2 to anybody,” said Lee Keller who scored one of the Nelson goals. “It would be nice if Trail and us could play 4-3 games because then the fans would come out.” There were fewer than 100 in the stands as the Leafs held a wide edge in play in the last half of the game. “We weren't running up the score,” said Keller after the Leafs’ 11th consecutive win. “We're not good enough to do that.” Dean Keller's two first- period goals stood up until midway through the second period. Brother Lee, the league's second-leading ‘scor- er and penalty minutes lead- er, then scored to start a Nelson surge that led to 5-1 second-period lead. Ed Cooper and Brian Bur- ley also scored twice for Nel- son while Walter Shelloff and Rick Durston scored the other Leaf goals. SCHEDULE HURTS Trail, which was playing its fourth game in five nights and has only a tie in 15 starts, got goals from Tyler Bolduc and Terry Proulx. In Kimberley, the Dyna- miters scored four unanswer- ed goals in the third period to defeat Cranbrook Royals 5-3 and win their third game in a row. : ee ¥ November 20, 1985 Castlegar News 53 Mid- Week Wrap-up HOCKEY texcusttanomesasor?

Slotback Rufus Crawford, though, suggests B.C. Lions shouldn't take the Eastern champions’ offence too lightly. The 30-year-old veteran said Tuesday that when the Lions meet the Ticats for the Grey Cup game in Montreal on Sunday, they should forget about the team that lost 42-8 and 21-11 last July and August. “We've become a much more balanced team,” Crawford We're starting to put points on the board.” And the points have helped the defence. “They can relax a bit and not feel like they have to do it all themselves,” Crawford said. gave up the third-fe t points in the league this season, behind only the Lions and Winnipeg Pee Buttato Quebec Montreal Horttord & Petrick D Phulodelphia 1 Weshingion 4 tongs, Becesya Tuesday Result Sherbrooke 451 Catharines 3 (OT) BASKETBALL NBA EASTERN CONFERENCE ‘Atlantic Divisi Pet. 338 Control Divi ans Fae geigee WESTERN CONES nase fB8ee Eg Pocitic Divis BEgES GE-ruvedpavoce Leogue. iques, recall goaltender (aE Goenaties wirom Frederic American Hod BOWLING Hight Tive. tot Rows Single: Alley Oops. 1 Lodies High Singl Team High Single: S High Three: Finches, 3015. ow?

The defence was the second toughest to r against next to the Lions, and not easily exploited by the pass, having pulled down a league record 46 interceptions. “We're a veteran defence that can adjust,” said middle linebacker Ben Zambiasi. “If we're beaten physically, there's not much you can do but work harder. “If you get beat mentally, that’s different, and that’s the part of the game we've become better-at than-last-year’s— team.” A CHANGED TEAM Last year's version of the Ticats also was good enough to advance to the Grey Cup, only to get blown out by the Bombers. “The best team won it last year, but we're a different team this time,” Crawford said. “You have to credit coach Al Bruno and (general manager) Joe Zuger for their patience with (rookie quarterback) Ken Hobart. “The way he plays in practice is no secret. If you watch him, you'd think he was the worst quarterback in the whole world. “But he threw the ball Sunday ‘better than I've ever seen him throw and he used all of his receivers. I think everyone scored except me.” Hobart tossed 'a playoff record-tying five touchdown passes last Sunday in a 50-26 win over Montreal Concordes.

Research may: cut.cancer risk QUEBEC (CP) — Resea- rehers at Laval University and Laval Hospital in Quebec City have begun experi- + menting with anti-carcino- genic substances they hope will cut the cancerous effect of cigarette smoke: Pharmacy professor Andre Castonguay and Dr. Michel Boutet, a Laval Hospital pathologist, say they'll test several of the compounds on cultures of human who cannot stop, for the former smokers who were exposed to nicotine for a long time and for non-smokers who are forced to breathe the smoke.” The decision by the pair of reseachers to embark upon the experiment comes after six years of testing the harmful effects of the smoke at the American Health Foundation in New York. The anti sub- bronchial tubes as well as on hamsters to evaluate their potenial resistance to lung cancer. The human cells used in . the, three-year experiment will be taken from among a ‘sample of some 400- news cases of lung cancer that the hospital treats annually. Hamsters will be injected with derivatives of nicotine — the most highly concen- trated carcinogen in cigar- ette smoke — which is believed to cause lung can- cer. “Our goal is not to encour- age smokers to continue to smoke without danger.” said Castonguay, “but to reduce the risk of cancer for those stances used will be com- pounds found in such vega- tables as brussel sprouts, broceoli and‘turnip.
