The board voted unanimously Monday to take “whatever legal action necessary to get the floor fixed.” Trustee Doreen Smecher said a problem with the floor “bubbling around the entrance” was first noticed in September. Since then the floor is gaping and the edges are curling. They are curling to a point that kids running could chip the edges and the edges could splinter,” Smecher said in a building committee report to the board. Superintendent of schools Terry Wayling said volleyball and basketball benches “have left permanent abrasions” in the floor. Smecher said a representative of Centaur Products was scheduled to meet with the building committee and discuss the floor, “but he didn't get in because of the weather.” Andy Boolinoff, maintenance supervisor at Stanley Humphries, said a Centaur representative inspected the floor without anybody knowing he was there. “He didn't contact us,” said Boolinoff. The $60,000 gym floor, installed just this year is “fully guaranteed and warranteed.” The building committee has received a letter from the contractor requesting final payment on the floor. But the board and the gymnasium architect say the floor is “less than satisfactory,” according to Smecher. Trustee Rick Pongracz agreed. “The floor is un. acceptable. A couple of years down the road I expect we will have many many problems with that floor.” Smecher noted: “The finish is guaranteed for three years and it has only lasted 3’ months.” Wayling said the first indication of a problem came after last year's graduation dance left impressions on the floor “That floor was a multipurpose floor, there must be 10,000 heal marks on that floor,” he said. “I really think we'd better go after them.” BOARD MEETING Soles fund By BRENDAN NAGLE Staff Writer The question of funding the Andy Soles scholarship at the University of Victoria was raised again at the Selkirk College Board meeting last night in Trail The board adhered to its blanket policy of retaining Selkirk funds for Selkirk College needs, but at the same time seemed a little uneasy about not doing something for the highly-respected Soles. The board eventually agreed to have faculty and staff raise community awareness about the scholarship in hopes of convincing local residents to make their own con tributions. “It would be counter-productive, I would say, for us to provide money that would help a student attend another institution,” board member Ed Mannings said in an inter. view. “The money that the college (Selkirk) receives or raises should be used to benefit the college.” But board member Judy Campbell was in favor of some support for the Andy Soles scholarship “I would like to see something done,” Campbell told the Castlegar News. “I would like to see somebody from the faculty take the initiative to see if there is interest in the community to help fund the scholarship out of the University of Victoria.” There was a suggestion during the meeting that perhaps Selkirk could initiate its own scholarship in Soles’s discussed name, but the Soles family has already endorsed the UVic scholarship. ~ “My main concern was that if we said, ‘OK let's bend the (funding) rules and give to this one,’ that then we'd open up that whole kettle of fish again,” and have more groups from outside the college soliciting funds, Mannings said.” The Andy Soles scholarship is for students from the Kootenays who want to attend UVic. In other college board news, the college received a letter from Municipal Affairs Minister Rita Johnson re. questing it recommend board members for two regionaliz ation committees that will be set up in the future. College president Leo Perra said the two committees will deal with economic development and government services. The committees will have about 30 members each and will serve the Kootenays. Two names were submitted to represent Selkirk College on the committees: Perra and Doug Glover, director of the college's Enterprise Develop ment Centre. “Being a participant in this particular process will give the college first-hand information as to what may evolve as a result of regionalization and help us in our own planning activities,” Perra said. Perra said one of the representatives will serve on the government services committee and one will serve on the economic development committee, but nothing has been finalized.

Thursday, Friday & Saturday January 2] - 23 THURS. & FRI. 9:30 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. SATURDAY 9:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Antignani scored number seven from Yzerman No. 1 in Detroit DETROIT (AP) — First there is Wayne Gretzky and then Mario Lemieux, and then — hold it right there, says Detroit Red Wings coach Jack Demers. He has a word to say about Steve Yzerman. “Lemieux might be the second-best player in the world, but I'd take Stevie,” Demers says. “We've made the playoffs two years in a row with Stevie.” The 22-year-old centre, who a year ago became the youngest captain in the Red Wings’ history, has been one of the hottest players in the NHL this season. He has 34 goals and 41 assists and has the Red Wings, suddenly one of the NHL's better teams, atop the Norris Division. Yzerman's 22-game scoring streak, which ended a week ago in New York, broke the club record of 17 set by Alex Delvecchio 23 years ago. As a result, Yzerman has become virtually untouchable, no small matter with Demers, whose success with the Red Wings is based in large part on the shuttling of players back and forth to the minors as a means of motivation. Demers says he would never trade Yzerman. “That's like asking me if I'd trade my son, Jason, for the kid next door.” The coach feels Yzerman has matured into a superstar this season. “Gretzky and Lemieux are in a class by themselves,” Demers says. “But the captain isn't far behind. “He's not just a great player on our team, he's a superstar in the National Hockey League. The only thing that bugs me is he doesn't get any votes for the all-star team.” Yzerman credits much of his success to linemates Gerard Gallant and Bob Probert, the Red Wings’ second- and third-leading scorers. “T'm playing with some pretty good people who give me the puck,” Yzerman says. “I've talked to Gallant and Probert. If we have a chance to shoot the puck, we shoot it. We don't look for the pass.” During the scoring streak, he had 20 goals and 30 assists for 50 points. Yzerman has failed to collect a’ point in just six of Red Wings’ 45 games. He is fourth in league in scoring, trailing only Gretzky, Lemieux and Denis Savard. Yzerman needs 15 points to equal the career-high 90 he recorded last season. His 34 goals are five short of his career high he set in rookie year 1983-84_ In just under four seasons, he has 382 points, ranking 11th on Red Wings’ all-time list. Yzerman is threatening team scoring records of 55 goals set by John Ogrodnick in 1984-85 and 121 points by Maree! Dionne in 1975-76. The club record for career points is Gordie Howe's 1,801.
