The game was close and fairly well played throughout. Castlegar took an early lead and by half time they id a 13 to 9 edge. The Nel- son boys led by Trainor with 11 points and Godderis with 6 fought gamely to the final whistle but just’ missed winning. HERE AND THERE Well, as the saying goes, the Trail Smoke Eaters have “had it.” They fought gamely but the Edmonton Pats fought hard- er and deserved their win, and now the so called “old men” from Edmonton ‘ will continue down the trail to the Allan Cup. ‘We of the Kaotenays wish the . Pats the best of luck in their quest for top honors in amateur hockey circles. Due to the burning down of the auditorium where the Van- couver basketball team played all their games, the series between Vancouver and Trail Motors has been postponed until this week- end. Rennie Mitchell will be travelling to the coast with the Trail team. SOCCER Plans are underway to form a-soccer club here in Castlegar within the next week or ten days. If a club is formed, thera is a very good chance that they will enter into the Trail league. So please step forward all you footballers.
