rooster and a goose, taken from
a pen behind a women's house

The woman said she was

Slocan_Junction Schoo! Closes

- Pupils Hold Reunion

Past students commemor-
ated the closing of Slocan
Junction School with a reunion
held recently at the school,
More than 50 former pupils and
teachers enjoyed an evening of
socializing. and reminiscing.
Each person introduced himself

~ or herself, some adding inter-

esting comments.

Judge Leo Gansner - of
Nelson spoke of the early life of
the school.

He recalled that a school

was started at Slocan Junction
about 1912 in quarters under
the community hall. It was
necessary, to have eight pupils
before a school could be opened
and Myra Humphrey had to be
taken in at a tender age to
make up the eight.

School continued in this
rather dismal location until a
new one-room school was built
and classes moved in. around
1917. It later expanded to a
two-room school with eight
grades.

At the reunion were four of

the original pupils of that
school, Julia {(Potosky} Muraro,
Mary Potosky, Millie (Potosky)
Roberts‘ and Judge Gansner.

Some of the early teachers
were recalled, Miss Mary Pat-
terson, Mrs. Boomer, Miss
Gladys Clyde and a Miss Rowa.

Of the latter Judge Gans-
ner had a humorous tale.
Apparently Miss Rowa struck
terror into young hearts, es-
pecially on the spelling detail.
Students were given 60 or 70
spellings and if they got more
than ten wrong they received
the strap for each mistake over
the ten. s

Parents got up in arms
over this and protested. The
outcome was that pupils had to
write each mistake 50 times
each, s

This drew another protest
because it brought on a paper
shortage. Parents weren't go-
ing to supply scribblers for such
a purpose. Spelling, mistakes
were written out on any paper
available, brown paper and
brown paper bags.

Some of the earlier pupils
were Gerry and Wilfred Lee,
Jack, Jim and Kathleen Gray, a
large family of Andersons,

Paula and Elsie Gansner, and .

Winnie (Russell). Halsey, to
name a few. Daisy Lee, also a
one-time pupil at the school had
brought along some old pic-

tures which sparked much
recollection.

Judge Gansner remem-
bered Slocan Junction as a
place with community activity
organized to a high degree.
Mrs. J. D. Yeatman, was one of
the moving forces in this
respect.

A letter was circulated
with best wishes to Mrs.
Yeatman, now living in Brace-
bridge, Ont., in which she was
remembered as a respected and
loved citizen of Slocan Junction

Are Seeking:
Washrooms
For Tourists

The second Slocan Cham-
ber of Commerce dinner meet-
ing was held at the Lucerne
Restaurant Monday of last
weel

presiost George Mark
chaired the meeting. There
were two guest speakers, and
new members joined. _

Gay Steves reported that
it was impossible to get any-
thing started for B.C. Day this
year as’ all the’ clubs: ‘have
disbanded for the summer
holidays.

Clyde Hammond and Hal
Wright spoke of Sandon’s ef-
forts to get public washrooms
for the tourist population. San-
don has the oldest power plant
in B.C, visited by 20,000
tourists last year.

A Letter of Thanks |

Editor, Castlegar News
The first season’ of the

‘ newly formed Castlegar Cubs,

is over and I think it is time'to.
express thanks to those who
made it possible.

It takes many hours of leg
work and knocking on doors to
get, the. finances and people to
start.a club. Tho most credit
goes to Bruce Allingham and
Wayne Tamelin for. their tire-
leas‘ efforts, Along with them
are the businesses who backed
these young men, namely
CKQR Radio, D-Bar-D and
Sylvester's Food Mart,

Publicity was made easy
with the Castlegar News and
CKQR Radio always ready to
fry reports and bulletins.

Finding umpires is. like
{finding a ‘salmon fly when the .

“fishing is good; very hard. But

with guys like Ken Morris, Bob
Fred » Podvinikoff,
Jack and Alex Voykin anda few
unnamed ones the managers’
burden’ was eased: : greatly.

“Especially when these persons

asked ‘for nothing in return for

. personal expenses. ,

- The ‘two best’ in’ this
capacity must be Don Tamelin

and Randy Morris, With almost ° fh

no remuneration these two
kept our ball loss to zero and

that’s money saved at $6 per’

ball.

Scorekeeping on home
games is a'careful and exacting
operating in keeping league
records, Thanks to Nell Warner
for her efforts at all games.

When a club is struggling

; for a footing, a helping hand is

sure welcome. Thanks to Pat

Picton and the Sentinel: Ball ~

Club for their assistance, Also
to Tu-Dor Sports who took a

chance on a bunch of -guys

trying to make a go of it,
Finally to all the playera,

thank you. It was a tough.

season and it cost money out of
your pockets, but I think it was
worth it. You played well, we
lost some and won some but
everyone did his beat.

It is necessary that this —

attitude’ continues year after
year, so that there will always
bea place to go for the younger
player coming out of the Colt

League. Keep baseball an ac- |’ ~

tive sport in Castlegar.
