However, the baseball talk in New York the last two weeks has been about Ricky Henderson, the Yankees’ current centre fielder. He's making headlines not with his flashing feet — his stolen bases are almost taken for granted—but with his smoking bat. How hot has he been? He was named American League player of the week for June 17 to June 23 and his .500 (5-for-10) pace in this week's three-game sweep of Baltimore is fully 107 points lower than last week's performance when he batted .607 (17-for-28) against Baltimore and Detroit. That included an 0-for-5 game. “I only hit .267 the year I broke Lou Brock’s stolen Henderson one hot player base record (with 130 steals in 1982), so people tend to overlook my hitting ability,” Henderson said. The speedster’s 22-for-38 streak in the last 10 games has boosted his average to .359, tops in the major leagues, after a 3-for-25 start. He is 34-for-80 or .425 in his last 19 games and has stolen at least one base in 13 of those games. He has been successful 36 times in 38 attempts and has scored at least one run in 38 of the 51 games he has started. INJURES HIS ANKLE And he has done all of this with a left ankle which he sprained severely in spring training — he missed most of the exhibition schedule and the first 10 games of the regular season — and which he says is “still not 100 per “You can't walk him because that's like a double,” says Mike Boddicker of Baltimore. “You've got to make him hit the ball.” Henderson has hit 57 singles, eight doubles, four triples and nine homers, with 32 runs batted in from his leadoff spot. “This is the time of year — the end of June and July — when I usually start a streak (he was 13-for25 from June 26-30 last year).” Henderson, 26, came to the Yankees last December from Oakland in exchange for five players. He spent 5 seasons with the A’s, batting .291 and stealing 493 bases, leading the league in each of the last five years. He is the only player in baseball historfy to steal 100 bases more than once and he has done it three times (an even 100 in 1980 — his first full season in the majors — and 108 in 1983). He concedes that the trade “hurt, to tell you the truth.” SUNDAY —MAJOR LEAGUE: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Montreal Expos, 10:30 o.m., channel 9.

He cer- tainly didn’t get a chance last season with Toronto Maple Leafs. The National Hockey League club paid Palmateer $220,000 (U.S.) last season to sit out the season while the Leafs finished last among the 21 teams. “I really missed hockey,” Palmateer, 31, said. “It's been my life in winter since I was a little kid. “I thought I still had some- thing to contribute. I still be- lieve I do.” After spending a quiet winter, Palmateer found his free agency had almost caught him by surprise. “I didn't even realize this was the last weekend,” hi said. “I haven't talked with (agent) Al Eagleson in a few weeks, and it will probably be another three weeks or a month before the coaches and general managers are sest- tled in after their holidays. “At that time, we'll look over any offers and look for tryouts.” Palmateer has experienced chronic knee problems. Last fall, the Leafs’ training camp he payed half of one exhibitton’game against Que- bee Nordiques. Palmateer was reported then to have asked if he could miss the next day's workout to rest his knees and was re- fused permission. The vet- eral goalie did not suit up for another exhibition or league game, even though the team struggled. During the winter, he started a hamburger busi- ness in Toronto, “It kept me busy, kept my mind occupied,” he said. “I tried to keep in shape other- wise.” He said he has started skating with some of his former Leaf teammates in preparation for another shot at hockey and has found his knees appreciated the rest last winter. “They're certainly no weaker for it,” Palmateer said. “So far, in skating, there's been no soreness, and all indications are that the legs are as good as ever. “I hope I'll be back here in the exhibition season, play- ing for someone and doing my best ot whip their (the Leafs) butt.” Weekend Wrap-Up BASEBALL AMERICAN LEAGUE test Division Toronto 27 625 Oewrort 0 2% ‘Sx 3% New York 3 32 598 6 Borron we 5s 6 Boltmore 3 he sor 8 Milwaukee ny 6 12 Cleveland ne 34 2 Wet Division 1 509 tegeee $3zz8 CASTLEGAR CAMP!

LYNN BALL Student speaks on Ottawa Tuesday night Lynn Ball, a 1985 graduate from Stanley Humphries Secondary a CasNews correspondent for the high school and a Castlegar Rotary club del to the A in Ci country is a mosaic of different cultures, histories, and traditions, but we are united, and through that bond we can share those differences to help one another grow as program in Ottawa, reported to the club on her impressions at the conference. I was ii by the p of Lynn's address and felt that it was appropriate to this Canada Day weekend. However, when I interviewed her to get a little background for her address to the Rotary, I found her account of her experiences in Ottawa equally interesting Columbian, returned @ Canadian so that I am including of much as I can of them as well. First, Lynn's address: RETURNED A CANADIAN Good evening. Last month I went to Ottawa on your Adventures in Citizenship program. I have come here tonight to tell you about it, but since most of you I'm sure have at least a general idea of the curriculum, I'm not going to talk about what we did, but rather how I felt. I left on Friday, May 10 feeling that I was a British Colombian going to meet with youths from other provinces. I returned a week later feeling I was a Canadian who had shared an experience with other young Canadians. If I had visualized Canada as I left, I would have seen a brightly colored map divided into regions by thick black lines but I don't see it that way anymore. I know it now to be one country, not divided, but whole, covered with people who don't just belong to a province, but belong to one nation. BOND OF DIFFERENCES I'm not saying that all Canadians are the same, this Ci I was fi enough to have a girl from New Brunswick as my roommate. As we talked about our homes, I came to understand more about the problems in John Charters . . . Reflections & recollections bho won the opportunity to go on the Adventures ane ree ee eee its beauties as well, and I like to think she gained some of the same understanding for B.C. Even as we learned about the differences between our provinces, we learned that they're not so different. She came from a smallish high school that seemed to me to be a lot like Stanley Humphries; we had the same taste in music and clothes; and some of her friends sounded like some of mine. I learned about other regions through other people. Sitting at a table, alone amongst seven French-speaking people, I learned to appreciate in a personal way the feeling of isolation that a language barrier can cause, but as I was around the people from Quebec, they frequently laughing at our mistakes in French, and the Anglophones laughing at their mistaken in English, I began to feel much more aware of their province and the great waste it would be if we didn’t attempt to communicate, because we have so much to share. BEST AND BRIGHTEST It was the same with the rest of the people I met or the trip. Here were the best and brightest young leaders from across Canada, ready to diseuss their homes, and eager to hear about yours. Everything we did and talked about made the other parts of Canada seem closer. The greatest part of this program was meeting with 259 other young Canadians to help build a sense of identity as Canadians. The experiences we shared on the trip also helped foster a sense of unity with Canadians by building the feeling that the workings of Ottawa, politically, econo- mically and even culturally aren't divorced from my province and my experiences, but play an active part in the daily lives of us all. The Bank of Canada is real, the House of Commons is real, Mare Garneau, Madame Suave, and Brian Mulroney are real, something I knew intellectually, but didn’t really understand. These places were like sets from a television show. The people seemed as real to me as actors in one. Now I really understand, not just intellectually that these are vital, active forces in our lives. Thank you for allowing me to be a part@f this program, it was a great privilege has changed the way I view myself. Canada, I hope you will be able to continue this program for many years to come so that other youths will be able to share the same experiences I was so fortunate to participate in. in by entering into senior ecenate at the high school and then in speaking in competition against two other top students at a Rotary club meeting. The club then arranged for her airfare to Ottawa, billets and pocket money. She left on the May "10 which gave her the weekend to acclimatize herself, - and returned May 17. When she arrived in Ottawa, she was met by her billet, Gary Pluim, and teamed up with a delegate from New Brunswick, Lisa Thomas.. The Adventures in Citizenship began at noon Monday with a tour of the Parliament buildings and a visit to the House of Commons where the delegates were received by Speaker Johh Bosley and Clerk of the House, Dr. C.B. Keesler. They then went to another reception room where they were welcomed and photographed with Marion Dewar, Mayor of Ottawa, followed by a Rotary luncheon, and a visit to the Senate. The 260 student delegates were then divided into groups and each went to visit one of the number of the diplomatic missions in the city — United Kingdon, U.S., West Germany. Lynn found the South African mission to be of great interest since it was headed by its first black ambassador. Her group visited the Austrian mission. The evening’s entertainment was a dance, together with skits given by the different groups to represent their visits to the different missions. Lynn's group included a selection from The Sound of Music which, to their considerable satisfaction, won first place. The group to the United Kingdom constructed their skit around the song I'm a Little Teapot, which, though not a winner, reflects the spirit of the enterprise. HUMAN RIGHTS DEBATE On Tuesday they attended a debate at the University of Ottawa between a group of experts on the topic “Human Rights — More Rights or More Res- ponsibility?” “I blew my mind!” says Lynn. A visit to the RCMP ‘M’ division and an opportunity to see the famous musical ride followed. Later they visited the RCMP stables. “We had wonderful fun giving the young, unmarried Mounties a hard time,” she added. A visit to the Bank of Canada building, and the feature speaker, to their surprise, turned out to be one of the high points of their visit. “He was incredible! Informative, to the point, and witty. We gave him a standing ovation.” then lunch at Government House with Madame Gave: the Governor-General. “Such an incredible woman! She made us feel so and was so in our to the program. She certainly was not there to have her photograph taken. Later, we had a picnic in her wonderful gardens.” The day ended with a bus tour of Ottawa, spiced with the opportunity to “hassle” the unfortunate bachelor tour-guide. They had dinner at the parliamentary restaurant that evening with Kootenay West MP Bob Brisco as their host. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney stopped by briefly to greet them but did not stop for dinner. What did they have for dinner? “Chicken again, but. very well done. It is always chicken.” A dance followed. On Thursday they went to the Confederation Room in the West Block of the Parliament buildings to witness the Court of Canadian Citi The Hon. Rideout, Senior Citizenship Judge and Judge Lina-Dover Cohen presided. All the del were pi d with their citizenship certificates. Afterwards, in the only two hours free time that they had, they all went to a mall where they ate sundaes “to get over the chicken.” Their farewell luncheon was held at the Chateau Langit, 0s Oe capes Saareare G Sieget to ak hit-aboat chicken) where one rep from each pr spoke on their reaction and values from the conference. Lynn, because she was leaving a day later than most of the others, saw most of her new-found friends off. She had just seen a particular friend, Stephanie. Certain that she would never see her again, Lynn sat down and wept. Then said Lynn, a resident came by, stopped and said: “Let me guess. Adventures in Citizenship — right?” When Lynn nodded, the citizen said, “Here's a kleenex.” As Lynn said: “It was just wonderful.” To sum up. Poor Lisa hurried back early to New Brunswick to find that she had been laid off, according to a just i letter. Si an musician; may be back in April for the music festival competitions at Banff; and the entire conference, tears included was covered by a cameraman — John Bosley. Poor John! Roast and dinner for local teachers By JOHN CHARTERS The Stanley Humphries Secondary School staff held a smorgasbord dinner and roast Wednesday night at the Fireside Place to honor eight of their departing members. Three of these eight, Alden Bigsby and Lloyd Ish of the LE. Department and Martin Vanderpol of the English De- partment, have retired from teaching. Principal Lach Farrell has been inted Castlegar. Bill Lunn of the LE. De- partment has been transfer- red to Kinnaird Junior See- ondary School and Sally De- Rosa, who has taught biology for Fred Stroes for the past year, returns to the substi- tute teacher pool. Among the gifts were sev- eral more dubious items, in- cluding a large and rusty motor for Alden Bigsby to it and Director of Instruction for the Castlegar School District. Together, with their other gifts, these four teachers re- ceived specially-drawn por- traits by student artist Brad Mair. One staff member, Mike Balahura is leaving for the Ontario Institute of Special Education where he will take his Master's degree in learn: ing assistance. Harry Plotnikoff of the Math Department leaves on exchange to teach in the city of Bath, England. His op- posite number from Hard- man will teach for the year in his spare time, and Dave Dudley designed and sented a special fishing rod for the “universal fisherman” to Martin Vanderpol to bet- ter pursue his hobby. The dinner and the special program were followed by dancing to Rod Clifford's band. The entire program was organized by Bunny Charters while Don Mair acted as master of ceremonies. In the coming term, vice- principal Don King will take over as principal, with Don Mair and Jack Closkey as AARTIN VANDERPOL... half-time principals. inspects special fishing rod Foundation member resigns By JOHN CHARTERS The directors of the Sel- kirk College Foundation met last week at the Fireside Place for a surprise dinner meeting to honor one of their most valued members. Penny Freno-Link, execu tive director for the foun dation since its inception last year, has tendered her res- ignation and will leave at the end of the month with hus- band Greg Link and her child, for Fort McMurray, where Link has accepted a position as registrar for Reyano College. Freno-Link, who came to Selkirk College in February, 1981 as liaison and informa. tion officer, holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Sociology, a diploma in public relations, and has done pro- fessional work in fund. raising. She later became manager of public relations and last year when the foundation was formed, was made its first executive director. During the course of the dinner she was presented with a plaque by college board chairman Dr. Jack Colbert in recognition of her services, and a gift from the college by principal Leo Perra. Doreen Smecher, chairman of the foundation board, gave her an ice worm so that “she would recognize one up there in the north country when she met it.” During her residence in Fort McMurray, Freno-Link says she hopes to do some freelance work in fund-rais- ing and public relations. They say they expect to return eventually to B.C. At a regularly scheduled meeting at the college earlier in the month, the foundation directors ratified pointment of George Meclvor, chairman of the Selkirk Col- lege Development Commit tee, as a director of the foun- dation. The board also discussed a list of recommendations from the development committee and a marketing plan for Project ‘85. Meanwhile, the board has approved a revised job des eription for the position of executive director and has started to seek a replacement for Freno-Link. In the interval, information officer, Joe Lintz is carrying the responsibility for her office. A letter of resignation came from Brenda Balon, student representative to the Selkirk College Development Committee. She cited the pressures of work on post- secondary education. Her resignation was accepted and areplacement will be sought.
