Some days saw over 40 boats on the lake, and fishing was fair to good until Jan. 3 and the tapered off. This is due to the weather inversion which has had the lake clouded in for almost two weeks. Temperature has been around 1° surface water up. Until we get a major weather change, fishing will continue to decline. The hot lures for Rainbow have been Silver Alaskans — Silver J Plugs, and Blue Hot Spots fished either on surface or with up to four ounces of lead on short lines. Dolly Vardens have been hitting Bill Norman and Jointed Rebel plugs fished with either six ounces of lead or downriggers at 65 feet depth. The Woodbury Holiday Derby was won by Art . Henninger from High River, Alta. with an 18'-pound Rainbow. Next week we will explain the new tagging system that is to be implemented on Kootenay Lake April 1. > _ 2) /Moueam HOURS OF OPERATION: Sat., Sun., Mon. 9:30-3:30 Full Rental Service Food Concession Rates: Adults Juniors Child Under8 Phone 352-9969 Reaves after contract WINNIPEG (CP) — Run- ning back Willard Reaves of Winnipeg Blue Bombers said Tuesday he is seeking a new Canadian Football League contract worth more than $100,000 a season.

Salmo beat Rockers by 10 Stanley Humphries Jr. Rockers basketball team played its first league game of the season last Thursday in Salmo against the Jr. Fal. cons. Prior to this league game the Rockers completed a brief exhibition schedule by defeating the Rossland Jr. Royals twice and losing to a tough squad from Northport, Wash. The Jr. Rockers played a solid first quarter and quick ly established a comfortable 10-point lead thanks to some good inside moves by second year player and co-captain Rod'Gritchin, said coach Bar. ry DePaoli. The Falcons came alive in the second quarter due to some “lack lustre” team defence by Stanley Humphries. The Rockers managed to come away with a four-point lead at the half. The second half of the game took on a similiar pat. tern to the game's second quarter. The score remained relatively close throughout the game with the locals eventually prevailing by 10 points. Rod Gritchin played a strong game offensively for the Rockers scoring 15 points and pulling down nine re- bounds. Rookie guard Scott Bole came off the bench to score eight points and was impressive at both ends of the floor. Dale Fitehett, another newcomer to this year’s Jr. Rocker line-up played his usual, hard-working, consis- tent game on offense as well as defense, said DePaoli. Also contributing to Rock- er scoring was smooth point guard, Eric Dillon (eight points) who attended school in Courtenay prior to joining the Rockers this season. Dale Ditehett had seven, captain Glen Lefurgey added six and Fernando Ferriera chipped in with two. For their first league out- ing the Rockers played poor defensively from a team standpoint and lacked offen- sive sharpness, DePaoli said. The team indicates a great deal of promise but has yet to play up to their capabilities. Pee Wees tie with Nelson Castlegar Pee Wees hoc key team faced off against Nelson on Saturday and came away with a 2-2 tie. Sunday's game was in direct contrast when the Reps trounced Nel son 9-1 on home ice. In the opening game Castlegar’s Derek Kazakoff fired in a shot on a pass from Chris Postnikoff for the Pee Wee's first counter. David Vecchio scored at 18:02 in the first, assisted by David Jo sephson to wrap up the scor: ing for the Reps early in the game A hard-working back checking Nelson team frus: trated the Pee Wees on many scoring opportunities, result ing in two scoreless frames. Netminders Muller and La londe looked sharp making some key stops and restrict ing Nelson shooters to one goal in the second and third frames. In a turnaround the Reps came out flying for the con. vineing 9-1 win. Roger Carl son and Stephen Junker were spark plugs in the game picking up two goals and one assist each, helping their teammates to their first 1985 win. Vecchio scored unas. sisted in the first. Frank Stroble, Ken Halisheff, Chris Postnikoff and Josephson each notched one with assists going to Derek Kazakdff, David Green, Vecchio and Jeff Barr. psreieased in their het tournament of the season at the New Year's Hooperama in Trail on the weekend, playing three games which bore absolutely no «resem- blance to each other at all. The team won one game, but lost twice. In Friday evening's feature game, the Rockettes squared off against the perennial powerhouse Laurie Tiger- ettes from Cranbrook, and the local squad appeared to be intimidated by the Tiger- ettes awesome reputation, said Rockettes coach Doug Pilatzke. After a few minutes, find- ing that their intensity was resulting in some success, the team came to life and the result was a beautifully- played, competitive game. Trailing 15-6 after the first quarter some hot outside shooting by Lisa Uchida and Leigh Halisheff cut the mar- gin to 17-12 as the Rockettes” defense tightened and the of- fense began to produce some points. Midway through the third quarter the Tigerettes’ led by 27-22 and several missed assignments cost the Rock- ettes dearly as Laurie took a 36-24 lead into the final frame. Final score was 41-29 for Laurie, but in the process of losing the Castlegar girls learned an important lesson. “This is a team game and everyone must contribute to the total team effort,” re- marked Pilatzke. “Against Laurie, the girls saw clearly that if they all give a max- imum physical and mental effort they can feel very good about themselves and what they have accomplished, even after a loss.” LEIGH HALISHEFF . cut the margin Against J.L. Crowe Jr. Hawkettes on Saturday morning the girls never really got untracked and dropped a close 32-25 de- cision to a team they had beaten before Christmas. Halisheff and Karen Popoff scored 10 and eight points each but the spark that had glowed so brightly the pre vious evening was missing. “Perhaps we underesti. mated the Trail team because we had beaten them before Christmas. I know I did. Their point guard Nancy Cragnolini is a very fine player and the early morning game didn't bother her one bit,” Pilatzke said. “Perhaps the next time we play Crowe we should have them wear the Laurie uniforms. Maybe that'll get us going.” In their last game against Prince Charles from Creston all of the Rockettes had better games as eight of the girls scored in a 59-22 romp. Halisheff hooped 19 points, Popoff 16, Lori Kinakin eight, Shelly Pakula, Tina Baker, Carrie Brown and Pamela Braun four points each, Kim Tarasoff two points. For her fine all-round play, Halisheff was named to the all-star team. Halisheff scored 39 points in three games. Belczyk will race Castlegar's skier Felix Belezyk, who did not race in Saturday's World Cup down- hill race at Kitzbuehel, Aus- tria, is expected to compete in this week's double down- hill at Wengen, Switzerland. Belezyk, took six stitches in his right elbow after falling in Thursday's training run Proko and was unable to race Saturday. Downhill ski team member Chris Mclver of Rossland, who suffered a minor con- cussion after crashing Fri- day, is also expected to com- pete this weekend. Meanwhile rookie Don Stevens, 21, of Rossland, was the second best Canadian in p rink edged out By CasNews Staff The Marie Prokop rink of Castlegar failed to qualify for the provincial ladies curling championships when they lost out in the Interior play downs in Prince George over the weekend. The Prokop foursome, which consists of skip Pro- kop, third Carol Waters, second Jan Kambick and lead Carol Allan, won three out of four games in the bonspiel to advance to the A and the B event. The rink lost its fourth game by only one point. The playdown was a modi. fied double knockout and the Castlegar rink lost to the Mulner rink of Prince George 7-6 and to the Heathfield rink of Williams Lake by a score of 8-6. Meanwhile a senior ladies rink from Castlegar will be competing in the senior lad ies zone playdowns in Fernie this weekend. The rink con sists of skip Belle Gray, third Aileen Oglow, second Glenna Akselson and Sophie Janicki, lead. Saturday's race, placing 39th among the 49 finishers with a time of 2:14.34. Stevens said after the race he feels he will benefit from having raced on what is con sidered the toughest course on the World Cup circuit. “I felt I gained an awful lot of experience out of these two races,” he said. “I didn't really do too great, but when you're racing here for the first time, you can't expect too much.

The school was formed by former faculty and students of the David Thompson Uni- versity Centre in Nelson, which was forced to close After the Social Credit gov- ernment cut off funding. En- rolment for the school's sec- ond semester, which starts this week, is to hire a part-time office worker and hold e poetry symposium later this spring. “But we can't go on giving a high level of teaching in the long run, unless we can make a living at it,” said Tom Wayman, a poet and instrue- tor at the school. He said tuition is kept very low, from $35 to $85 per course, but this means there is nothing left over to pay staff. Wayman is drawing un- employment benefits, and other staff members work in the ishi i or at double to 300. A $7,000 Canada Council grant will allow the school to other jobs. Despite its name, the school offers most of its January 16, 1985 Castlegar News courses in the Vancouver area, although there is a sat- ellite program in Nelson. Wayman said the school proved to be an instant suc- cess because it offers a brand of -hands-on training in fic- tion, drama, comedy, poetry and basie journalistic writing that is not readily available at established universities. Workshops on how to get manuscripts published are also available, and the school conducts a workshop where criticism of the students’ writing by professional edi- tors is carried out. “Any citizen of the world who writes in English can come in and interact with our Winner credits DTUC The winner of CBC Radio's national short story award gives much of the credit for his work to the writing pro- gram at the David Thompson University Centre in Nelson, and says he is tremendously pleased the courses are con- tinuing despite the closing of the university. Ernst Havemann of Bal- four won first place in the short story category for “The Interivew,” which was read Saturday. on the CBC pro gram, “Anthology.” Last year, Havemann won second prize in the national contest. “I don’t think I would have ne on writing if it hadn't been for the classes (at David Thompson),” he said. “The students were ter- ribly fortunate in the amount of attention they got.
