It’s as simple as that,” Matthews, who led the Lions to the Grey Cup last season in his first year as B.C. head coach, defended his players to the end. “Changes, just for the sake of change, is not in my opinion what makes a better team,” he said: “The players who lost two games are the same ones who have won eight games before that.” The Lions have an 8-3 record and are second in the Law nie 2 z 2 : ‘The Bombers, 92, also have won just once in their last three games, including a 14-14 tie last weekend in Montreal when the Concordes didn’t allow the Winnipeg offence to score a touchdown.

By Christmas that year, streetcars were operating. Some Nelson bus riders will also get an extra bonus. Stan Grill, representing council's transportation com- mittee, will be distributing to randomly-chosen passengers that week a number of 24-ride cards. This year is also the 36th anniversary of the change- over from streetcars to the rubber-tired buses introduc- ed by Interior Stages in 1949. The city assumed control of the bus service early in the 1950s and has operated Nel- son Transit ever since. Provincial assistance be- gan with a $17,000 operating grant in 1972, and after a dis- astrous fire destroyed three buses in 1974, Nelson has used buses from the unified provincial fleet ot provide transportation. Currently, the transit sys- tem operates three 1976 GM diesel 35-foot buses leased from BC Transit, which pro- vides a $168,000 contribution as the provincial share of Nelson Transit’s $360,000 1984/85 budget.
