Kids
tough in
b-ball
debut

Ed Mills
SPORTS EDITOR

Regardless of what league
organizer Brian Turlock says,
there was some decent ball
played Tuesday night in the
debut of the Kootenay West
Men’s Basketball League.

“It was a typical opening
day of senior men’s basketball
— 14 fats guys running
around trying not to die,” said
Turlock whose one-liners are
getting almost as good as his
basketball game.

But seriously, folks...

“Everything went well, ev-
erybody showed up, the refs
and scorekeepers showed up
and the games went off with-
out ‘a hitch. So we're under-
way, it’s good,” he said.

Turlock and several other
local players organized the
Kootenay West League from
the remnants of the defunct
Nelson league.

One newcomer to men’s
basketball, the Selkirk Col-
lege team, was an obvious ex-
ception to Turlock’s original
description of teams in the

league.

Young, fast and all-round
athletes, the college team
made their debut with a 91-48
win over the Winlaw Pistons
at the College.

In the other game, Turlock
scored 18 points to lead
Castlegar Realty over RHC
Realty 74-47 at Mount Sen-
tinel high school in South Slo-

can.

Turlock said the college
kids, and Castlegar Realty for
that matter, look tough early
on, but it is still early.

“Winlaw and RCH really
are better teams than they
showed. I think you'll find
we've got five strong teams in
this league.

“Those kids will run your
legs off but there’s a lot of tal-
ent on the other teams, they”1l
be all right,” said Turlock.

Wayne McCarthy had 14
points as Castlegar won round
one in the battle of the real es-
tate agencies.

John Ritchie had 13 points -

for Castlegar while guards To-
by Richert and Tom Thor-
Larsen had 10 each.

Norm Zaitsoff replied with
13 for RHC.

Cowan Office Supplies,
which is made up of players
from Nelson, Castlegar and
Trail, was the only team not
in >ction ry.

Clown ball is coming to town

@ They're not the Globetrotters,
but the Harlem Crowns will be an
entertaining imitation at SHSS
Tuesday night.

News Staff

You've heard of the Harlem Globetrot-
ters?

You know, Meadowlark Lemon, Curly
Neale, Gosse Tatum, Sweetwater Clifton,
Maquis Haynes and the boys who made
basketball buffoonery famous through-
out the world.

Well, one of the Trotters’ cousins is

| coming to town Tuesday night.

The Harlem Crowns, one of several
offshoots of the more widely know Trot-
ters, will make a stop at Stanley
Humphries Secondary school.

Their opposition for the night will be
the SHSS senior boys basketball team.

Though not the genuine article, the
Crowns should prove to be an entertain-
ing imitation, said SHSS vice-principal
and basketball coach Jack Closkey.

“They'll have a couple guys who can
dunk and a guy who can handle the ball,
they'll put on some routines and they'll
make fun of the boys and stuff. They'll
put on a good show,” said Closkey.

“We call it clown ball,” said Crowns

manager Herb Scaife in a news release.

Establish by former Globetrotter
Chico Burrelhin the 1950's, the Crowns
are basically a small town version of the
more famous Trotters.

The show was brought to Castlegar by
the high school’s athletic council.

After the Crowns take their cut, mon-
ey raised from the night will go to sup-
port SHSS’s athletic program.

Game time at the gym is 7 p.m. Tick-
ets are $5.

At halftime, the stars of Castlegar’s
mini-basketball league, for players in
Grade 4,5 and 6, will show off their skills
in an exhibition game.

Banjo’s makes good case

against hackneyed,

News Staff

The song might say ‘it ain't
over 'til it’s over,’ but Banjo’s
Pub made a pretty good case
against that particular tune
in a Castlegar Recreational
Hockey League game Thurs-
day night.

Banjo’s scored five first-pe-
riod goals then basically took
the rest of the game off in an
8-3 win over Castlegar Sports
Centre at the Community
Complex.

Price scored two
goals in the first and third pe-
riods and set up two others to
pace Banjo’s, who led 5-1 after
one period.

Banjo’s evens its record at
2-2 while Sports Centre falls
to a 2-4, Castlegar Pressure
Wash remains on top of the
league standings with a 4-2
mark\. *

Chris Owens had two goals
and three assists for Banjo’s,
while Rob Arisman had a goal
and three assists and Frank
Costa had a single goal.
