GET READY FOR A WINTER OF FUN

By CHERYL WISHLOW
Staff Sports Writer
Castlegar Rebels did it
again. They lost another
game. This time to the best in
the Kootenay International
Junior Hockey League —

‘Cranbrook Colts.

The 9-1 decision, Sunday
afternoon in Castlegar left
Rebgls Coach Mal Stelck with
these words: “I don't think
the team played as well as it
could have. WE are not get-
ting the job done as far as
checking and shots on goal
are concerned: — the two
most important parts of the
game.”

Leafs kids are slowly getting better

TORONTO (CP) — Out on
his own at the tender age of
18, Jim Benning isn’t sure
whether playing defence for
Toronto Maple Leafs or cook-
ing his own meals for the first
time is more difficult. How-
ever, he is certain of one
thing — there aren't 16,000
people watching you while
you burn your steak.

. Benning is one of three
rookie defencemen whom
Toronto coach Mike Nykoluk
chose to begin the National
Hockey League season with
— Bob McGill and Fred
Boimistruck are the others.

place in the Norris Division
and 19th over-all,

Nykoluk is counting of the
teenaged trio to withstand
the pressure exerted by win-
starved Leaf fans and de-
velop, sooner or later, into
the cornerstone of the club's
defence.

To critics who blame the
Leafs’ poor start on their in-

experienced defence, Nykol-
says:

No Cinderella
teams this year

REDWOOD cITY,
CALIF. (AP) — Coach Bill
Walsh says the Cinderalla
slipper doesn't fit his San
Frneisco ‘49ers, who were
2-14 just two years ago and a
dazzling 18-8 this season.

“Back when people were
calling us a Cinderalla team,
we went into Pittsburgh and
beat the Steelers,” said
Walsh. “Then we went to
Cincinnati and beat the Ben-

Is.
“We've won six straight

road games, and that’s not
Cinderalle football. I don’t
think there are any Cinder-
ella teams in the National
Football League playoffs this
year.:

“We've done so much herd
work, sacrificed
much to be thought of asa
Cinderella team.

The ‘49ers will be on their
home field Jan. 8, facing the
winner of Sunday’s New
York Giants-Philadelphia
Eagles game, and a victory
would make Candlestick
Park the site for the National
Football Conference cham-
pionship game Jan. 10.

Walsh told his team, before
yesterday's 11/:-hour practice
at nearby Stanford, he con-
sidered the Giants-Eagles
NFC wild-card match “a
60-60 game.”

Both potential Jan. 3 op-

to his defensive responsib-
iliteis.

“In the NHL, I've found
that because the players are
older and smarter, they wait
for that mistake, attack off it
very quickly and trap you out
of position,” Benning said.

“T haven't really played my
game yet, which is taking
chances. I haven't keen in the
NHL long enough to be able
to figure out quickly what the
risk is in trying something so
I hesitate to do it.”

For the next few months,
Nattrass will continue work
on her doctoral thesis at the
university. When the thesis
is completed, perhaps in late
spring, she plans to pursue a
few career goals.

She likes' the idea of con-
tinuing to teach and coach at
the university level and has
toyed with the idea of work-

ing in television or pursuinga j

career in promotions and
public relations.

Despite her successes,
Nattrass is virtually un-
known in the rest of Canada
beyond Edmonton.

She shows no bitterness
when she suggests that in
any other country, where
amateur athletes don't have
to compete with high-profile
professionals for the public
eye, a six-time world cham-
pion would be a household

name.

“It's not supposed to sound
like sour grapes; it’s just a
fact of life,” she said. “The
people in my sport know I'm
the champion and in many
ways that is enough.”
