_— 22 Castlégar News June 4, 1989 SPORTS oy Castlegar News 83 June 4, 1989 Pistons on to final CHICAGO (AP) — It's two down and one to go tor the Detroit Pistons and Isiah Thomas. “Our goals were to have the best record in the NBA, to get to the finals, and to win,’’ Thomas said Friday night after scoring 33 points to lead the Pistons to a series-clinching 103-94 vic tory over the Chicago Bulls. “We've done two of the three,"” said Thomas, who will now lead the Pistons against the two-time champion Los Angeles Lakers in the final best-of seven series that opens, Tuesday night in Detroit Thomas scored 17 of Detroit's last 24 points as the Pistons eliminated the pesky Bulls and the great Michael Jor dan in six games. Jordan led the Bulls with 32 points, but it wasn’t enough. The Bulls suf fered a serious setback early. A little more. than a minute into the Scottie Pippen caught an accidental elbow from Bill Laimbeer and was knocked out Pippen did not return and was taken to hospital for observation although it The Vallican Archaelogical Park Society ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Thurs., June 8 7:30 p.m. Vallican Hall, Vallican Opportunity to get involved ina unique situation: Make our heritage come clive ARROW LAKE ELEVATION 1411.1 ft. on June 3 Forecast of Elevation 1416.3 ft. on June 10 Was announced he was not seriously in jured Brad Sellers replaced Pippen and, along with Jordan, helped the Bulls build an early 26-14 lead, Then it was downhill for Chicago. The Pistons scored the last 10 points of the quarter, took a 49-47 lead at the half, increased it to 77-69 after three quarters and then saw Thohffis take over in the final quarter to clinch the victory. after the Bulls had pulled within 81-79, “1 didn’t necessarily take over said Thomas, shifted from point guard to No. 2 guard by coach Chuck Daly ‘Chuck put me in the two position to set me up for the,open shots. Our guys were doing a good job setting screens and | put the ball in the hole.” The big question is how the Pistons would do this time against the Lakers, to whom they lost in seven games in the final last year “We're pretty much the same team as last year,"’ Daly said “We know a little more about our opponents and what the NBA finals arereally allabout. Laimbeer said the fact the Bulls made the Pistons work harder than ex- pected would make Detroit better in the final, Detroit swept its series again- st Boston andMilwaukee “1 believe it was good,”’ Laimbeer said. *‘Against Boston and Detroit we weren’t tested, not to the point where it could go either way. Against Chicago, we were put in the position that if we wanted it, we had to go out and get it. And we did. “*The’Lakers are smart, don’t make mistakes, have quality players and an outstanding defence. Their defence doesn’t get much credit, but I think we can beat them.”” Defeat wasn’t that devastating for the Bulls, who were simply worn out by the Pistons. , “Wetried hard, but Detroit’sa great team,"’ Jordan said. ‘*We did all we could Ladies successfu! in Nelson tourney Sunny and warm weather awaited local lady golfers who headed up to the Nelson Tournament of Roses spon: sored by the Nelson Ladies’ Golf Club.

Ota Hally, who has been an instruc- tor for 15 years, will be in Castlegar beginning Monday, June 12 to teach a course on scuba diving. The course, will run six days and will include five classroom sessions, four practise sessions and five open-water dives. Classes will be available in the morning, noon, early afternoon or in the evening. Hally, one of only 29 master instruc- tors in Canada, explains in a news release that once a person passes the course he or she obtains a diver's licen ce, which is required to. rent equip- ment, get air or charter a diving boat The PADI (Professional Association MOVE EM’ OUT. . . This was just a net full of the 20,000 yearling Gerrard ™ rainbow headed out to stock Lower Arrow creeks. This batch was slated to be dropped off at Inonoaklin creek. CasNews Photo by Guy Bertrand Sport fishery gets boost By CasNews Staff Another 20,000 pen-reared Gerrard rainbow trout were picked up by helicopter from Scotties Marina Thuf sday for release throughout the Lower Arrow Lake region as part of the con tinuing effort to improve the lake's fishery Release sites were Deer, Taite, Oc topus and Inonoaklin creeks. The trout, raised to yearling size, are starting to contribute to the sport fishery on the lake. This year marks the fourth year the fish have been raised at the marina. “The whole system is working really well,”’ said marina owner Scottie Tait Locals off to Surrey By CasNews Staff Two Castlegar women hope to have luck on their side as'they take their hor- seshoes to the B.C. Summer Games. Michelle Feenes qualified for the ‘A event and Jean Bonin will compete in the’ event The two women competed along with other horseshoe pitchers in four ladies’ and five men’s categories at the tryouts for the Games in Cranbrook The winners of each event now go to Surrey for the Games from July 20 to Other winners were Joyce Pocha of Cranbrook in the ‘B’ division and Helen Angerilli of Fruitvale in the ‘D’ class rounded the ladies field On the men’s side, Murray Nicholas of Fairmont won the ‘A’, Don The sport fishery on both the Lower and Upper Arrow Lakes is showing Improvement, according to an infor- mation bulletin released in May The Dolly Varden catch from January to April was estimated to be about 150 fish, which is twice as many as previous years for the same period. Seven “‘trophy’’ rainbow between five and 16 pounds were also caught. These fish were originally released into the Upper Arrow systems and confir ms predictions that this practice will contribute to the Lower Arrow sport fishery Anglers should also be looking for- ward to success in angling kokanee. The bulletin reports anglers catching their limits on some days. Harvest of kokanee started in the last part of April and last year more than 20,000 were harvested in the Lower Arrow Lake Echo sounding and trawl work on both the Upper and Lower Arrow lakes last fall showed there were twice as many kokanee in the Lower Arrow as in the Upper Arrow according to the report The purpose of the work is to.deter- mine kokanee distribution and abun- dance as well as growth rates in the two lake basins. Reports for the Upper Arrow during January to April showed 86 dolly var den were weighed in. This is twice as many for January than in the last 12 years. Similar success was also found for Gerrard rainbow Regulations have changed in the Summit Lake and Nakusp region with a minimum size raised to 30 cen- timetres and a limit of four fish per day. The strategy behind this change is to protect the younger, smaller fish and create a “‘trophy’’ rainbow fishery, according to the report Kamloops bid gets Canada Games KAMLOOPS, B.C. (CP) — Kamloops has won out over four other B.C. bidders to play host to the 1993 Canada Summer Games, federal Spor- ts Minister Jean Charest said. Charest told a jubilant crowd jam- med in the city’s airport terminal that the evaluation committee was quite impressed with the city’s bid. Kamloops was chosen over Vernon in the Okanagan, Nanaimo on Van- couver Island and the Vancouver-area ofA Matsqi generate $40 million in economic ac- tivity, with 4,000 athletes taking part over a two-week period. Abbotsford Mayor George Ferguson said Charest had advised him earlier that Kamloops would get the Games. “There are some political aspirations there,"’ Ferguson said “Kamloops is not going to be NDP forever.” Vernon Mayor Anne Clarke said her Gravestones reminders of lives passed at the Abbey It's Sunday and the last day of April at the abbey oh the hill, The air glows in the morning sunshine and vibrates to the chorus of bird song as the resident barn swallows flash from the tall cypresses in front of the grey brick monastery buildings to the red-tiled eaves and back again. Men and women, members of a 50-strong retreat group, stroll along the black-top roadway in summer dresses and shirt sleeves, while worshippers for the high mass at 10 o'clock drive slowly up the hill, park and walk slowly towards the Abbey church ... There’s no hurry, the bells have not pealed yet Fhe lawns and meadows below the monastery sweep and flow down from the road and past the cemetery to Mary Lake, glittering like a jewel in the morning light, down to the playirig fields, tennis courts, past the Shrine of Our Lady on its little wooded knoll, then up the hill to the orchards and pastures and down to the monastery farm beyond the flowering trees and hedgerows. The view is beautiful and even the masses of newly defiant yellow dandelions, sweeping across the expanse of green like a golden Milky Way across the green, have their place The cemetery, enclosed in a hedge of sheltering trees and dominated by a tall blue spruce, is the only place empty of visitors. As always, when I first come here, | walk down to check and pay my respects. The lawn, I notice, has been cut recently, but the grave edges need a little trimming and there is a fresh growth of moss or lichen on the markers which needs removing. It will be done. | The grave close up stones are plain granite slabs in: scribed with a small cross, the name of the deceased and his dates and the letters OSB (Order of St Benedict) or | Obl. (Oblate). Quite simple, as becomes a Benedictine The nearest stone and the most recent resident, is that of my friend, Brother Francis, former band-leader and disk-jockey turned monk of whom I wrote earlier His marker reads, Dodson, Brother Francis, O.S.B., October 10, 1935-November 18, 1985. In one brief lifetime he managed to include several. He was a small man but full of courage and devotion, an example and strength to many stricken like himself, with cancer. He is well remembered Father Adian Angle, February 17, 1890 - May 24, 1965, is the oldest sleeper. He had come from an Anglican monastic order in England which had turned Catholic, and had emigrated to Canada to help found a monastery here. Instead, he became a parish priest, was closely associated with Westminster Abbey and on his deathbed asked to be buried in the monastery grounds. His graves close to the blue spruce, a seeding at the time of his death. He was followed in by Father Leo Walsh, Decefti ber 1884-March 11, 1986, one of the original group of monks who had come to Mission from the Deer Lake Seminary in Burnaby, to establish the monastery and to teach at the Seminary of Christ the King. He waa merry monk and while his discipline was shaky he had much to offer his pupils, many of whom are still at the monastery and speak of him with great affection. Next to him lies Brother Joseph Gouch, Obl., a Swiss, who earlier had grown mushrooms for the Money's Mushrooms company. He then became an in- ternal oblate at the monastery where he lived out the balance of his days performing incredible’ labors with great ingeauity.and the simplest of tools One of the monuments to his industry is the “Ap: pian Way,” a stone paved roadway from the top of the hill to the then barn, now Brother Peter's carpenter's shop, far down at the edge of the Lougheed Highway He built it singlehanded, using his old tractor and con: siderable ingenuity Moreover, being a Swiss, he built it to last, as it plunges down the steep hill in an almost straight line. It is little used now but he would probably sneer at the present curved and gently rising blacktop driveway. He didn’t appear for breakfast one morning so the monks investigated to see if he was ill. They found him sitting up in bed with his rosary in his hands. Death had taken him at his morning prayers. Brother Francis Stockley, 1967, was an English- man and another internal oblate; that is, he lived with the monk’ but was not subject to the same rules as they. He had been a fruit farmer but when his wife died he came to the monastery and spent the rest of his days happily tending the orchards and gardens. John Charters Reflections and recollections Father Benedict, Father Andrew’s brother and un- tik recently the very popular and gentle monastery guest-master, is even now waging a valiant battle with cancer while spending as much time at home with his brother monks as the doctor and his condition permits. Anessential part of the 1,500-year-old Benedictine tradition and rule is that for the monks, the monastery is their only homie for life. They live and work and pray as brothers in the monastery and are buried in the family plot when they die. I overheard one visitor ask Father Placidus, the assistant guest-master, ‘‘Are you a brother or a priest?”’ Since all the community wear the same design of monastic habit with the exception of the belt, (leather for brothers, cloth for priests), the question was quite legitimate, more so, at some times, since when they are carrying out their numberous chores they could be wearing anything, including cowboy boots, vest and 10 gallon hat Father Placidus chuckled and said, ‘I’m a brother who happens to be priest." A good answer High Mass in the Abbey church is enchanced by the symphony of light coming in through the great stained glass windows which symbolize the four seasons, and is rounded with the renewing of friendships afterward in the guest foyer, followed by morning coffee with the prior and my family in my apartment. |The afternoon, after the always special Sunday noon dinner prepared by Brother Benedict, the chef, is taken up in part with the last-minute meetings with the teaching fathers, 8 a.m and 4:40 p.m. ESL classes and preparations for the regular daytime lessons.
