Swimmers can also work towards gold, silver and bronze badges if they swim the mile in 25, 85 and 45 minutes respectively. Ee Castlegar. Aquanauts swim club begin p aman By ‘The Associated Press . Whatever Bill Russell was thinking, it certainly couldn't have been about an obscure baseball rule. The rule says a runner is out when “he fails to reach the next base before'a fielder tags him or the base, after he has been. forced to advance i by reason of the batter: ‘be. coming a runner.” . In other words, if the cat- cher dropsa third strike with two out and the bases loaded, all he has to do to end the inning is pick up the ball and touch home plate for a force- out.

WE’RE OPEN 10 AM — 5PM stare ow Re CASTLEGAR NEWS, May 12, 1982 Vancouver will ' complete deal - ByGRANT KERR UNIONDALE, N.Y. (CP) — Some time this week probably back on the West Coast, Jake Milford will take Bill Torrey to dinner and pick up the tab — the final payment in the Richard Brodeur trade. “I guess we should com- plete the deal,” Milford, gen- eral manager of Vancouver Canucks, sald Monday. “We owe the (New York) Island- ers something, that’s for sure.” * . The Canucks acquired Bro- deur from the Islanders on Oct. 6, 1980, a move that has made Milford look like a genius with Vancouver, now in the Stanley Cup final against the Islanders. Torrey, general manager of the Islanders, said his club let Brodeur go because the team was overstocked at the time with netminders Billy Smith, Glenn (Chico) Resch and junior draft choices Ro- land Melanson and Kelly Hrudey. “We were looking for a minor-league goalkeeper and found out Brodeur was avail- able,” said Milford. “We had good scouting reports on him and thought he might help 18 LEADING CANDIDATE Brodeur, 29, has emerged asa leading candidate for the Conn Smythe Trophy as the outstanding player of the National Hockey League playoffs, along with snipers Mike Bossy and Bryan Trot- tier of the Islanders.

Beodeur played the 1979-80 season for In- dianapolis of the Central Hockey Leauge and led the Checkers to the CHL cham- pionship. OPPOSING BRODEUR Smith, now opposing Bto- deur in the Stanley Cup finals, remembers Brodeur as - a“very confident guy in him- self.” “It was tough for him here because of Chico and myself,” said Smith. “We were both proven NHL goalkeepers. Brodeur played in 52 games with the Canucks each of the last two seasons. Vancouver had the fifth-best defensive record in the NHL this season, mainly because of Brodeur's 3.35 goals- against average. “For the club, this is the one trade I've made that's done more for the team than any other,” added Milford. “I don't know where we would have been last year without Brodeur after (Glen) Hanlon got hurt.

In the Vikings’ second game, against the Cranbrook Rovers, they tied.
