B2 CASTLEGAR NEWS, June 26, 1983 ( OFF TO DETROIT? VANCOUVER (CP) —: Vancouver whispers the word, Trade. Ron Delorme, a Vancou- ver Canuck teammate, calls to say the hot rumor back in Saskatchewan is that Williams will be traded next week to ano- ther National Hockey League team, perhaps De-. troit Red-Wings, Hartford Whalers or New Jersey Devils. Williams, the devilish left winger, produced only eight goals last season when given a checking role by Canuck coach Roger Neilson. “One reason why I've made a living in this game,” Williams said this week, “is that I've always been ready to play, where- ver it is. T'm solid with the Canucks for another year. That's low I see the situation. I. know we lost quite a bit last season because we didn’t have too many peo- ple who could be hard, who thing.” 3.7, 2 .

A player shouldn't be judged on statistics, said Williams, when the system helps create those num- bers. . “Roger Neilson sees me as a checker,” he said. “He's made it clear that's my job and I don’t really see how you can score goals when’... you have to put yourself between your own net and someone like ‘Lanny McDonald." . Williams said he can un- derstand the Canucks “brining-in a young player like Patrik Sundstrom from Sweden last season, but not an older player like Ivan Hlinka, who played two seasons and now has: returned to his’ ' native Czechoslovakia. “At the end of the day, what did the Canucks get out of Ivan?" Williams asked. “When you boil it down, they didn't get that much. “The guy had tremen- dous skill, but it was pretty clear he preferred to play at-home and it was also clear that he couldn’t han- dle 15,000 miles a week on the road. NOTTOBLAME | “I'm not blaming him for that. It,was in his back- ground and he was really too old to change.” Williams, who scored 35 goals in 1980-81, said his production declined after he suffered a. back injury and “got strict job instruc- tions.” The NHL's most penal- ized player in history is still angry over the sudden end to last season when the Canucks were eliminated in the first round ‘of the playoffs 3-1 in games by - Calgary Flames. “It was terrible watch- ing Calgary Isy down against Edmonton,” Wil- liams said, “They obviously thought they’d had a good season when they beat us,” illiams has tried to soothe his combative feel- ings by hunting and fishing in the Yukon. ’ track meet Woodland Park Elemen- - Josh ‘Austin; Srd'- Greg tary School held an enjoyable.

Not. only.do they have trouble getting to the courts, the fields and the hiking trails, but they don’t want to do these things by « themselves. They need a friend. A year ago, Craig Andrews, Selkirk: College's Tim Frick who adults and child teaches fitness to Vianne Timmons, teacher at Silver Birch school; and the. * When I visited them at the recreation complex in their little cinder-block, windowless room they call their office (Norma: “We sure do need some posters. If anyone has any posters... ."), they were quick to tell me that they in no way were “experts” when it came to work with the "handicapped. They're merely “coordinators,” the engine behind the machine. “We play to get-volunteers,” said Norma, “and get . them to take our. clients to recreational activities.” - “Our target,” stated Doug, “is to get five handicapped adults into some form of activity.” This he considers an “attainable goal,” and one they might well reach before the end of summer. The three began their summer at Selkirk College in May. They observed Tim Frick’s fitness courses. They travelled back into town to sit in on some classes at Silver Birch school: They visited the Clay Castle and spent a lot” of time at the Volunteer: Exchange learning how to and “Michelle sient and drew the “Recreational Friends” logo. They scanned books, read articles and bounced ideas off of each other in “think-tank” sessions. Finally it was time to get set up. ~They decided that'a monthly newsletter ‘would be the most efficient way to let Castlegar find out who they are, where they are, what they're doing, and what they need from the community. ‘Then they lined up some qualified résource people for a mid-July workshop for both Potential Volunteers, and for those uncertain about but who would like to learn more recreation department's Rod Irwin got their coll heads together and came up with an idea. Why don't we get the people of Castlegar to be “Recreational Friends” — drive these persons to ball games, to the swimming ‘pool, to’ the lake? This would allow the people of Castlegar to see that ‘the handicapped are péople, after all, and just like them. And it would give the ‘han ipped a chance to develop friendships outside their Gwn circle, and of course, it would make it possible jor them to get to places that they ‘couldn't ordinarily, | But they needed “coordinators, "a few energetic people to gét this thing off the ground and keep it going, to match “client” with “friend,” to tap the resources within the community and set up training programs. So, they applied for and were given.a Summer Canada youth employment grant/This ts-where Norma McMillen, Doug - Green andMichelle Arishenkoff come in. They applied for the jobs and got them. about working and “playing” with the mentally handi- capped. “We're trying to set it oop like a business,” emphasized Doug. “We'd like to gain permanent status in the community.” They agreed upon a list of qualifications for “friend” and “client” both. I read from their pamphlet that a “friend” should have: 1) some previous experience dealing with mentally handicapped persons (helpful but not essential), 2) patience and understanding, 8) responsible adult, 4) valid driver's. license, and 5) jence as a in a activity which is specifically of i interest to the sltent. - From this list.we can.see that ,most. of. us, qualify. . ews see that.a 'r friend,’ ” LINDA HALL Getting to Know Your Neighbor RECREATIONAL FRIENDS oo Trying to coordinate an activity prog for Ci y handi- recreational skill and would be willing to share that skill with a client.” What do you want from Castlegar? I asked ae capped are: Deg Green, Michelle Arishenkett (left) and Norma McMillen. All three of these coordinators are students, Michelle grew up in Castlegar and spent last year in the university transfer program at Selkirk College. In the fall she will be ‘UBC in the pre-medical sciences. When she saw “We want them, when they see a h; becoming involved in the community, to be aeeaptiog ‘of him,” stated Norma. Doug added, “We would like to have people come up and tell us if they have any suggestions or could help us. We would encourage people to just drop in and talk to us." And finally Michelle concluded, “We'd like to see some volunteers,” The three were quick to add that they define the term very loosely, — anything from a game of tennis to a walk in the woods or a drive in the mountains. The fact that most people go on vacation for a few weeks in the summer is also not a deterrant to becoming a friend. “We're not asking for a firm time commitment. Even a few times a month, that would be great!" says Norma. T learned from them that there are similar summer programs set up at the Clay Castle and Silver Birch school. But theirs’ is different. The workers themselves are performing the job of “friends.” Doug, Norma and Michelle are trying to motivate the community. to be “friends.” After the three of them leave, they hope friendships among client and -friend. to-be ‘sufficiently “will be a person witha. specific ‘interest, or to go forth on their own steam, “We. don't want everything to just drop,” comments Mchelle. the ad for this “coordinator” job “I was a little bit hesitant at firat, but I thought it might be challenging. You have to use your head in this job, it’s a thinking job. I'm always things about it.” “Yes,” interjected Doug, “I take it home with me and think about it in the middle of the night.” Like Michelle, Norma is a university transfer student at Selkirk College, although she doesn’t plan to go back to school for a while, intending instead to work and save money. She describes herself as a “fitness freak” and would like to eventually teach P.E. and fitness. Doug is just about finished four years of eductional studies at Selkirk College, and David Thompson University Centre through the University of Victoria. This coming year, will be his “professional” year and then he will begin looking for an elementary teaching position. Doug-and his wife Charlotte have three children; Brent, 5; Darin, 8; and Chelsea, 18 months. Although not one of the three came into this job with very much experience (if any) in working with zx handicapped people, all now take their position very:: » seriously. They are doing their best to make Castlegar an. Can you help? and caring Eckville — ae “the town that media made ECKVILLE, ALTA. (CP) The people of this small, central Alberta town would like to get back to quiet ob- security. For a month, controversy over the classroom activities of schoolteacher Jim Keegstra focused media attention on the community, with reporters and whirring cameras everywhere. Keegstra, who taught his social studies classes there is an international Jewish conspiracy at work and that _ Second World War atrocities against Jews were exag- “ gerated, was fired from his teaching job. Now, the town of 850, 14( of wants some peace. + “People are getting tired of the whole thing," said Ross Henderson, a reporter with the weekly Eckville Examiner. “At first it didn't bother them, but it got to the point where they couldn't walk out of a store without a TV camera pointed at them.” When a film crew from the CBC evening newscast The Journal arrived to get the scoop on a little town with an anti-Semitic mayor who taught Zionist conspiracy theories to high school students, “It really threw the whole town out of kilter,” said Margaret Andrew, one of the parents involved in bringing Keegstra’s teachings before an education board inquiry. “Especially the TV cameras. Some of the kids wanted to be on the air and others ran the other way.” Eckville lies on secondary Highway 766 —a right turn at the Husky station. Red and yellow farm machinery lines the road outside’ the New. Holland dealership and the Alberta Wheat Pool grain elevators tower over the community. Main Street is the only paved . road in town. Chamber of Commerce president Len Schultz said the town is considering ways of redeeming itself from the “redneck” image it feels it has unjustly acquired. “We're looking at starting a promotional campaign to say Eckville is a good place with a lot of community spirit.” George Schmidt, a member of town council who asked for Keegstra’s resignation as mayor, said the town’s image has heen tarnished. “We want to get on with business,” he said. “The issue, as the media say, has not torn the town apart.” Schmidt said Keegstra — acclaimed as mayor at the last municipal election — is lapping up the publicity and playing to the media. THRIVES ON PUBLICITY “If Keegstra was an ordinary citizen, people aul . dismiss him as a kook,” Schmidt said. “But he's mayor so the media take it seriously. He thrives on it — he's never reached so many people.” Keegstra, a tall, lanky, grey-haired father of four, says “The Jewish conspiracy is no secret — the media has blown it way out of proportion.” SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION Annual General Meeting Tues., June 28th “ > 7:30p.m. Recreation Complex All Parents are Urged to Attend, mnt: Hone alan anid tachivee Wad AR catanign Eskimos release quarterback “an New York Glonts tign middie linebacker Harry Conon to ‘one-year con- uA odtlchigan Panthers sign tight end Me- allt dttey Generale sign offensive Hocxay Winsipes Jets trode tal! winger Norm Dupont to Harttord Whalers tor ioture ¢ CROSSWORD / wa Average time of solution: 70 minutes.
