BASEBALL Dirty 30 now a hall of famer By DAN RALPH HAMILTON (CP) - Almost 30 home, this is the way to do it,” years after saying goodbye to his home town, Jim Young returned to a hero’s welcome Thursday. The 48-year-old Hamilton native, who starred with the B.C. Lions for 13 seasons, was named to the Canadian Football Hall of Fame, along with former players Brian Kelly and Tom Hinton, and long-time administrator Norm Kimball. “If you’re going to come’ back an emotional Young said after the ry. Young, nicknamed Dirty 30 for his aggressive playing style, was twice voted the CFL’ top Canadian player (1970, 1972). In 197 games with the Lions, the hard-nosed receiver caught 522 passes for 9,248 yards and 65 touchdowns. “The nickname was something I gave myself because I felt football needs the role and image,” said Young, now the Lions’ vice-president of business operations. Young, who once worked as manager of the Sandman Inn in Castlegar and holds a celebrity golf tournament there every summer, did his best to live up to his moniker. In a 1978 game between B.C. and Saskatchewan, the Roughriders’ Ron Lancaster threw an interception and Young was blocking for his With a three game series with Montrose beginning Park Tuesday night, Rachel Friedrich and the rest of the weren't going to tet a little rain stop them from getting in some practise at SHSS Thursday night ~ CasNews photo by Ed Mille in Gi at and Castiegar Peewee Reps fastball team Rebels hire coach By Ed Mills Staff Writer The Castlegar Rebels junior B hockey club has a new coach.

Chevaldave, who admits he hasn’t had much contact with the Castlegar hockey scene in the last few years, is looking forward to returning home and taking on the challenge of his first junior hockey coaching job. “I want to get into contact with all the guys who played with the team last year, introduce myself, chat with them, as well as the up-and- coming players from the (Castlegar) Midgets. Chevaldave, whose first coaching job was a two-year stint with the Salmon Arm Bantam Reps six years ago, said he considers himself a career coach. “I want to go up the ladder as far as my talent will take me,” he said. In a decision made prior to hiring Chevaldave, the Rebels executive agreed to make the team’s coach a paid position for the first time since the Rebels inception in 1976. Chevaldave will get $300 a month. Chevaldave is expected to move to Castlegar permanently in mid-August.

He was a four-time western all-star, an and held that position when the Alouettes folded in 1987. “That was a great way to spend my life in the business world,” Kimball, 61, said of his career.

Regatta's name stays the same By CasNews Staff Fifteen to 20 sailors and their crews are expected next weekend for the Gary Fodor Rega ..., er, the Syringa Creek Regatta on the Lower Arrow Lake.

The Pass Creek sailor will-be trying to make it four in a row when he drops his 25-foot Martin 242 cruiser in the water in back of Scottie’s Marina for the first day of the two-day event Saturday But the 15-year veteran said he'll be very surprised if he wins it this year. “I haven’t been practising that much, so it’s like anything else, you have to work at and I’ve been busy with other things,” he said.

As for changing the name of the event to the Gary Fodor Regatta, Fodor said: “You can forget about that, I'm a long shot this year.” The Regatta is the smaller by far of the club’s two annual summer events. The other event, the Gray Creek Regatta on the Labor Day weekend, is the largest sailing event in the West Kootenay and this year expects to get 50.to 70 boats The Gray Creek Regatta, held on the east shore of Koot- enay Lake, is open to all dasses of sailboats including sail- boards, dinghies, catamarans and cruisers.
