In 1982-83, he scored 46 goals and 61 assists for 107 points. The following season he scored 39 goals and 77 as- sists for 116 points. He had scored 408 points in 347 regular-season games played. In playoff games, he has scored 22 goals and 30 assists in 34 playoff games. Last season, Pederson scored 29 goals and added 47 assists for 76 points. Jack Gordon, Vancouver's general manager and direc- tor of hockey operations, said: “We made a determined effort to land Barry Pederson and we are delighted to have succeeded. His NHL creden- tials are there for everyone to. see and we're confident he'll be a tremendous asset to the Canucks for many sea sons to come.” Neely, 21, was Vancouver's first-round pick in the 1983 draft. A former member of Portland Winter Hawks of the WHL, the last season was his third as a Canuck. He scored 14 goals and 20 assists in 73 games.

He was traded to the Flyers last year and appeared in 64 games, picking up 167 min utes in penalties. Christina Lake now 18 holes By CasNews Staff Christina Lake Golf and Country Club has expanded its golf course to 18 holes. ‘The expansion makes the golf club the only 18-hole course between Castlegar and Oso- yoos.

About 120 club members and directors were on hand for the opening. The cost of the expansion was $609,000. But golf club professional Carl Yelland says $100,000 of that came from a Canada Works grant. Some funds were also ob- tained through the sale of timber on the land which was acquired for the added nine holes. The land was turned over to the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary by the Trickey runner-up Castlegar golfers were well represented at a Sweep- stakes Tournament held Tuesday at Birchbank Golf course. The event was hosted by the Trail ladies and 122 golfers took part in the day's event Local winners were: Ruth Trickey, loss gross runner up; Division one, Leslie Johanson, low gross, Diony McArthur, low net, Kathy Johnson, best back nine; Division two, Laverne Mak- ortoff, low net; Division three, Heather Pottle, best back nine; Division seven, Norma MeDonald, least putts; Division eight, Ver. ginia Madia, low net.

But Yelland says the golf club would have to spend $100,000 in order to get the $50,000 from the Lotteries Fund. “We don’t have that (mon ey) to spend,” he said. In fact, the golf club still owes $350,000 to the Grand Forks Credit Union for the expansion. But Yelland said the club will go back to Hewitt and “It's kind of a blow to us,” he said. “We were expecting some money in the form of an outright grant.” Since the expansion open ed, Yelland says the response hasn't been overwhelming but the golf course expects business to be “tremendous” as word of the expansion be comes better known.

Eight teams are competing in the tournament at Kinnaird Park, which winds up today CosNewsPhote by Doug Horvey LIONS SHOULD REMAIN BEST IN THE CFL By BRIAN KENNEDY KELOWNA (CP) — The architect is leaving, but the offensive catalyst is staying and that should be enough to keep British Columbia Lions at the top of the Canadian Football League. Bob Ackles, who has been with the club for 32 years — the last 10 as general manager — says he isn't concerned about his decision to leave for Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League. “T'm leaving the club in good shape,” said Cakles, whose resignation takes effect in July. “There are no loose ends.” One of his last major moves was to re-sign veteran quarterback Roy Dwalt, who had flirted with trying his hand in the NFL before agreeing to terms with the Grey Cup champions. Ackles's belief that things are stable is borne out at camp, where shorts and sun tan oil are the order of the day in this lakefront town in British Columbia's southern interior. Head coach Don Matthews is known for running a country club-type camp. This year is no different. he Lions are rich with talent, so much so that Matthews can still joke after learning that talented wide receiver Jim Sandusky could be out for nearly two months with a knee injury. His replacement will be Ned Armour, who was outstanding in the playoffs after replacing the injured Mervyn Fernandez. “We have a policy here with the B.C. Lions — you're not allowed to get hurt unless we have an adequate backup,” says Matthews. TOP COACH Matthews has established himself as one of the most successful coaches in the CFL, with three consecutive first place finishes and two trips to the Grey Cup — in 1983 and again last year when the Lions won for the first time in 21 years. Fernandez, likely in his last year with Lions before he heads to the NFL, has recovered from his leg injury and is ready to hook up with Dewalt to form one of the most feared passing combinations in the league Dewalt, a six-year pro, led the CFL in passing last season with nearly 4,300 yards and 27 touchdown passes, while throwing only 12 interceptions. With Dwalt signed, frustrated backup Tim Cowan knows his future is elsewhere. Cowan wants to play, and although he may stay with the club this year, he expects to be gone next season after his contract expires. Rookies Bernard Hawk and Willie Totten, who threw 59 touchdown passes for Mississippi Valley State last year, will push Kariton Watson for the third quarterback spot. Another battle shaping up in the offence is at slotback, where Canadian Jan Carinci, obtained in a trade with Toronto, is battling import Ron Robinson for the job. Both men have had minor injuries in camp Defensively, B.C. will make a couple of changes. Walter Ballard, obtained along with Carinci for Nick Hebeler and Kerry Parker, is battling with Bennie Jones for the defensive end spot vacated by Hebeler. At safety. Nelson Martin is challenged by Andre Jones. Linebacker Kevin Konar feels the defensive unit will be more aggressive than it was last year “We are not going to give up big plays,” he said. “So don't try and cross our goal line or we will punish you.” Weekend Wrap-Up FASTBALL By The Canadian Press ATS COMMARERCIAL FASTBALL Castlegar’s Felix Belezyk is the second ranked member of the Canadian men's team and 33rd internationally. Canadian downhill ski racer Todd Brooker has been dropped from the top 15 — the first seed — on the men’s World Cup circuit after miss- ing much of last season with an injury. The Paris, Ont., skier is ranked 36th in the last In ternational Ski Federation rankings. “An appeal has been made to the FIS to upgrade his rating, given his situation of last year,” Glen Wirtele of Ottawa, national team head coach, said. “It's a blow to his pride, but shouldn't seriously affect him.” Brooker is recovering from the knee injury at home by riding a bicycle. “Todd will miss the first two downhills of the season in Argentina in August,” said assistant coach Terry Spence. “He won't be back on skis until September.” Top-rated member of the Canadian men’s team now is Rob Boyd, 19, of Whistler, who is ranked 29th interna tionally. 23 Conseco Caltorme a3, shatnghy. nderson.

The immediate result has been a great enthusiasm for the new experience and a steady volley of letters to friends and relatives, including the Charters. Since the student exchange program is a valuable tool for international peace and understanding, and a unique experience for both the students and their temporary parents (Rotary and non-Rotary), as well as the communities at large, I have passed on the reports of these young ambassadors for the interest and pleasure of all, as well as for those who may wish to correspond with the students. Last month Susan sent a letter to the Castlegar Rotary Club. How are you all? I am having a wonderful time here in St. George. It's a very friendly town. I have now been here for 2‘: months and I have been very busy with school and other things, which I am going to tell you about further on in the letter. But first I will tell you a bit about my school. It has 304 students and they are all very friendly. School starts at 9 a.m. and goes until 3 p.m. There are seven periods a day, each 35 minutes long. There are three separate buildings, all on one floor. There are no classrooms, it's just one big room divided into separate parts. The subjects I'm taking are Socials, Math, Applied Communication (English), Applied Business Studies, Home Economics, Cathering, and Art. They're all fun and I am really enjoying school! I have been to three Rotary and two Rotary Ann meetings. They are all a lovely bunch of pepole and they make me feel right at home. The first weekend I was here, I just stayed home and rested to get over my jet lag. The flight was 22 hours and I stopped in Honolulu and Cairns for a little while on my way to Brisbane. The weekend of Feb. 21/23 there was a briefing camp in Stanthorpe (five hours south of St. George) for all the exchange students in districts 964-63 and 60. We all arrived on the Friday afternoon and talked to each other most of the night. Then, on Saturday, we went to Angello's vineyard and looked at the grapes, the kegs. and then we even got to sample some. It was really nice. Sunday we went toa celery farm, then had our lunch and briefing at the home on the farm. Everyone headed home after that, but it was a really fun time. The weekend of Feb. 28March 2, I Toowoomba (four hours east of St. George) for a church camp. It was really fun and I met lots of people. The weekend of March 14-16 I went to the Gold Coast with my host parents for district 964 Rotary Conference A total of 2,000 Rotarians and Rotary Anns attended. It went to John Charters . . . Reflections HUNGRY FRIEND... Castlegar Rotary Exchange student Susan Ross feeding a kangaroo (or “roo”, as they are more commonly called in Australia) at Rosehill Farm in Queensland. was held at Jupiter, which is known for its very popular casino. We arrived on the Friday, went shopping for awhile, then all met back at the hotel at the conference room. Before tea, one person from each country had to carry the flag of their country and the rest had to follow. Later on all the students were invited out-to meet Rotary members. Saturday we had to {ntroduce ourselves individually to everyone. I was very’nervous when I got up todo that but it went smoothly. That night there was a barbeque for students and it was really good. This was a really fun weekend and it was the firt time I went for a swim in the ocean. The beaches are gorgeous. For Easter holidays, I went with my host family to Coolum (on the sunshine coast two hours north of Bris- bane). We stayed at some relatives of the Noon's and they lived about seven minutes from the beach. We went for lots of swims while we were there. We also visited the Big Pineapple, which is also on the sunshine coast. It’s the biggest tourist attraction in Australia. It has a sugar cane and nut train going through the pineapple plantation and other fruit farms, then the nut train takes you to the farm themselves. They were really interesting. There is also an animal farm, lunchroom and a place to shop. It was really neat. I only stayed in Coolum for 4'/2 days, and I had the most wonderful time. The Easter bunny even came but with no snow. Oh well, next year. WA My upcoming events are the Rotary exchange student safari around New South Wales and Queens- land. We will be gone for three weeks. Then five days after I come home from that I go on a 10-day trip to Sydney. Canberra and the Snowies (the Snowy Mountains of East Australia) with the school. After I come back from that I'm on June-July holidays for another week and a half. So J should have a fun two months. I'm really looking forward to it. I would just like to thank you all for letting me have this wonderful experience as an exchange student. It is something I'll never forget. Susan Ress “The Ozie Te Be” P.S. Also on April 10, I went to a sheep sheering farm of one of the fellow ians and got to see how they do it. It was really interesting. I even tried it a bit but I don't think sheep sheering will be my career, thanks. (Charter's note: Susan mentions the school uniforms and no make-up regulations in another letter, a fact of Australian life which we too had noted. Many of the uniforms had school crests since there are a considerable number of private schools. Many of the places she mentions are familiar to us and will be to others. I look forward to her getting down to earth and more details a little later in her sojourn. Mon.-Sat., June 9 to 14 Mens. No. 3516 Regulor $159.95. NOW .... Mens 12-Speed. No. 5250. Regular $173.99.
