Pictured from left are combined meee HOYT CALLED OuT No other kind of job, career or profession can compare itself 4p that ‘of professional sports, — Professional sports is truly in a world all of its own, or at least some people who are employed in the field of professional sports are in a world all of their own. More specifically, major league baseball player, and that word I use extremely lightly, LaMarr Hoyt is in a world all of his own. In fact no one really seems to know which planet Hoyt is from, but the general consensus is that it is not the one called earth. Hoyt, the former San Diego Padre pitcher, who had hoped to sign with the Chicago White Sox or Oakland A's, has been suspended for the 1987 baseball season by com- missioner Peter Ueberroth. Hoyt’s banishment from the di amond really comes as no surprise, considering his past off the field ac- tivities. In the last year Hoyt has been arrested three times while in possession of marijuana and twice while in possession of large amounts of unprescribed tranquilizers. But Surj Rattan wait, it gets better. He recently served a 38-day prison sentence but told friends that he was eager to resume his playing career. When does he find the time to play baseball? If he’s not out on the prowl trying to score some drugs, then he’s smoking drugs. And if he's not smoking drugs, then he's cooling his heels in the Big House because he was smoking drugs. And the man wants to resume his playing career? The reason Hoyt is a former San Diego Padre pitcher is because the Padre’s waived him in January. The reason the Padre’s waived him was because he was arrested at the San Ysidro, California border last Oc- tober. He had over 500 illegal pills with him at the time. I knew professional sports was tough and frustrating for those employed in the field, but I never knew it was this tough. So tough and frustrating that someone like MGNO as ONLY OR WHILE QUANTITIES LAST medal. winners Heather Sheppard, Selena Fodor, Chelsa Van Vliet and Lisa Datchkoff. LaMarr Hoyt has to smoke grass and pop pills just to cope. One must really feel for him. 1 know I do. Hoyt probably doesn’t want to do drugs. In fact he prob- ably hates drugs, but he had to get, high just to cope with all of the pressures of being a professional athlete. That sounds reasonable, doesn't it? Hoyt, like so many other profes. sional athletes, has managed to make the big leagues after giving it his all while in the minors. So now that he’s managed to make the major league, he of course has much, much more money to spend. Now it appears that LaMarr Hoyt’s life in the fast lane is coming to an end. Ya, poor old LaMarr Hoyt has really had a rough time of things. But as he tells his friends, he still wants to play baseball. I think the Castlegar slow pitch league is looking for a few guys. Right winger Rick Vaive scored three goals and assisted on another as the Toronto Maple Leafs broke a four-game losing streak with an 86 victory Saturday night over/the Vancouver Canucks, e Vaive increased his season's output to 28 goals as the Leafs’ offence finally broke loose after producing only nine goals and gaining only one point in five previous games.

Presley broke a 1-1 tie at 10:40 with his 24th goal of the season. He skated down the right side, pulled goalie Gilles Meloche out of position, cut behind the net and caromed the puck in off Meloche’s stick from the opposite side. Watson tied the score at 2:33 by?deflecting Mare Bergevin's shot from the left point past Meloche for his ninth 1 The Blackhawks are 3-0-2 in their last five games and moved into third place in the Norris Division, one point ahead of St. Louis.

(AP) — Mikke-Makela scored a power-play goal with 48 seconds left in the third period Saturday night, giving the New York Islanders a 3-3 tie with the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis, which began play tied with Chicago for third place in the Norris Division, five points behind Minnesota, had taken a 3-2 lead onMark Reed's seventh goal of the season at 8:55. Doug Wickenheiser of St. Louis was serving a holding penalty when the Islanders got a faceoff deep in the St. Louis end with 1:20 remaining and pulled goalie Billy Smith, giving them six skaters to four for the Blues. The Blues got the puck out-of their territory-and the Islanders attack was delayed because Gerald Diduck could not get away from a St. Louis player inside the blue line. Pat Lafontaine waited for Diduck to get onside, and fed Makela a pass racing down the right side. Makela blasted a slap shot from the top of the faceoff circle past St. Louis goalie Greg Millen for his 17th goal of the season. BRUINS 5 SABRES 1 BOSTON (AP) — Charlie Simmer scored two goals and assisted on two others as the Boston Bruins defeated the Buffalo Sabres 6-1 in an NHL game Saturday afternoon.

(AP) — Craig Hartsburg scored with 41 seconds left in the second period to cap a four-goal burst day as the North Stars rallied from a three-goal deficit for a 6-3 NHL victory over the Los Angeles Kings.

Rockettes on By JACK CLOSKEY The Stanley Humphries Senior Rock- ettes will face their biggest challenge of the year this week. The girls will travel to Penticton to play in the Provincial Championship Tournament March 4-7. West Kootenay competition has proved to be little challenge for the girls this year as they rolled to a 21 win 7 loss season record. The Rockettes have been consistently ranked in the top 10 provincially and they know that a solid effort in Penticton could pro- duce a top five finish or even a Provin- cial Championship. The girls have played well in tourna ments all season, winning in Lumby and Trail and placing second in Spar- wood and Nelson, so the pressure of tournament play should not be a con. cern. The Rockettes are a well-balanced team with solid contributions coming from all players. The team leaders in scoring and rebounding have been for- wards Karen Popoff, Leigh Halisheff and Lynette Swanson, but the most consistent play has come from the guards where Tim Tarasoff has had an outstanding year. Lisa Uchida, Shelly Pakula and Kim CURLING ACTION road Lees have added tough defence and fine outside shooting to make the back court one of the best in the province. Tina Baker, Pam Braun, Lori Kina. kin and Tracy Kaminsky have been able to handle the substitute role at forward to the point where there are no weak spots on this team. The girls opening game is against Okanagan Champion KLO of Kelowna at 5:20 on March 4. This team defeated the Rockettes 51-48 in the Blue and Gold Tournament but the girls are confident that they can turn that score around against the taller Kelowna squad. Armstrong takes win NEW WESTMINSTER (CP) — Vancouver's Jim Armstrong opened the B.C. mixed curling championship Friday night with an 11-6 win over Kelly Turner of Kimberley. ‘Armstrong is seeking to advance to two Canadian curling championships, having qualified earlier for the national men’s final as the third on the Bernie Sparkes rink. In other first-round games of the double-knockout tournament, Steve Williams of Duncan edged Tom Car. michael of Prince George 98 in an extra end; Mark Longworth of Vernon beat Bob Baker of White Rock by the same 9-8 count; and Kim Browning of Richmond downed Doug Smith of Ver- non 8-4. The championship continued through Sunday. SYDNEY, N.S. (CP). — The Canada Winter Games ended on a triumphant note for Nova Scotia on Saturday with the host province's convincing victory over Quebec in the men’s basketball final. To Quebec, however, it was only a minor annoyance. The province, represented by 250 athletes over the two-week period, went on a tear over the final six days, winnign 32 gold to wind up with a total of 47, Quebec outdistanced Ontario, which finished second with 20 gold from its 252 competitors. And the basketball victory made it a happy ending for Nova Scotia fans when their team beat Quebec 91-76 i the men’s final before several hundred delirous fans at nearby New Waterford. It enabled Nova Scotia to finish with only five gold but it sent about 6,000 volunteers home talking about their team and the success of the Games. “I've always felt that Nova Scotia kids can play the game with anybody, can understand the game, and are as well-developed fundamentally as anybody,” said Nova Scotia coach Bev Greenlaw, whose team went through the tournament undefeated. The two weeks of competition for about 3,000 of Canada’s developing athletes wrapped up with medal presentations in three sports and the closing ceremonies, attended by Otto Jelinek. NEW FACILITIES A number of new and renovated buildings have been left behind as a legacy of the Games, started in 1967 at Quebec City with the first Winter event. In other team finals Saturday, Quebec nipped Ontario 63-60 in women's basektball and Quebec won another title by defeating Ontario 6-5 in hockey. Quebec then closed out a strong week with gold medals in the men’s and women's speed skating relays. Quebec finished with 98 total medals, including 30 silver and 21 bronze. Ontario wound up with 80 medals — 20 gold, 26 silver and 34 bronze. In that point totals, however, Ontario finished with 211 to 210 for Quebec, while British Columbia was next with 179. It is the fourth consecutive time in which Ontario has won the Games’ Flag as the overall points champion and the eighth in the I-year history of the winter and Nova Scotia beats Quebec in Canada Winter Games action summer competition, held alternately every two years. Nova Scotia was the class of men's basketball and it showed in the second half against Quebec. Leading by three points at the half, the host province came out firing in the second and stretched its advantage to as many as 21 points late in the game. CAPS OFF WEEK The gold capped off a week of lopsided wins for Nova Scotia, whose closest margin of victory was 12 points against Ontario. It’s widest was a 67-point bulge over PEI. . “] think it says what I've always felt, which is Nova Scotia for its population has got to be, if not the best, then one of the best basketball provinces in Canada,” said Greenlaw. Kevin Veinot led the winners with 23 points. Perry Douglas scored 22 for Quebec. Tina Fasone of Montreal was the catalyst for the comeback victory by the Quebec women’s basketball team. Down 13 points at the half and 15 early in the second half, Fasone led a point-scoring surge that gave Quebec its first lead of the game with 5 1-2 minutes remaining. _2We don't have a very good first half, and in the pécond half we decided to come out bit by bit and take it ‘away,” said Fasone, who scored 13 points. “Once we tied it, we were on our way.” ‘The hockey final was marred by a controversial call in the last minute ofthe game as Ontario pressed for the tying goal. The Ontarians, trailing 6-4, pulled their goaltender with a minute remaining. They drew to within one when Jim Bodden scored his second goal of the game with 34 seconds remaining. Defenceman Larry Van Hersle appeared to have tied the game 14 seconds later with a shot from the point but the goal was disallowed Referee Charlie Banfield, who had his arm in the ari as Van Hersle wound up, assessed an interference penalty to Ontario captain Jeff Shipley The Ontario players and coaching staff complained vociferously, to no avail. Many walked to the dressing room with tears pouring down their facs.
