'Life goes on’ for track and field

By MARY JOLLIMORE
TORONTO (CP) — After hitting rock bottom
with the disqualification of Ben Johnson at the Seoul
Olympics, Canadian track and field is rebuilding — this
als promise is a clean slate of glean

**Life goes on,"’ says Andy Higgins, head coach of
the University of Toronto high-performance centre,
“Our sport has been through a very rough time but what
we've got to do is go forward and do the best wecan."”

The sport will go forward — but with noticeable ex-
ceptions. The fallout from the Johnson steroid scandal
has rocked Canadian track and‘ field and the once-
respected Canadian organization seems in chaos as the
outdaor season approaches.

, Johnson is suspended for at least another 18 mon-
ths and the federal government has suggested he may
never run for Canada again. Other high-profile athletes
went down in the wake of Johnson's positive drug test at
the Olympics.

Angelia Issajenko, Canada’s fastest female sprin-
ter during the 1980s who has since admitted almost a
decade of steroid use, has conceded her competitive

Sprinter Courtney Brown and Mark McKoy, one
of the world’s best hurdlers, were suspended by the
Canadian Track and Field Association for their refusal
to run in Olympic relay events.

PICK UPSLACK

Coaches across Canada feel there are plenty of
Canadians capable of picking up the slack as the team
works toward the 1990 Commonwealth Games in New
Zealand in January.

Canada’s respected (@am of middle distance run-
ners remains virtually intact and there's a rising star in
the decathlon — Michael Smith, who was 14th at Seoul
and won the silver medal at the 1986 world junior cham-
pionships.

Olympic herg Dave Steen, whose bronze in the
decathlon was the only track medal Canada got to keep
in Seoul, in concentrating on the pole vault but hasn't
ruled out a return to his speciality.

Doug Clement, middle distance coach of the
Olympic track team, said in an interview from Van-
couver that the public perception of the drug problem in
Canadian track has been distorted by the attention
focused on the Dubin inquiry into drug use in amateur

“Ten to 15 athletes out of 100 carded (track)
athletes were involved in this scandal so that means 85
were not involved,"’ said Clement, whose stable of
athletes from Richmond (B. Kajaks Track and Field
Club includes Lynn and Paul Williams and Simon
Hoogewerf. :

“What we have now is an opportunity to start
things off with a clean slate with a core of veteran
athietes,"” : 2

But the turmoil that has plagued Canadian track
isn’t limited to just the athletes. Phere is a measure of
uncertainty about the upper echelon of the Canadian
Track and Field Association. Gerard Mach, head coach
for the CTFA, handed in his resignation after 16 years
with the association in late March.

The resignation of Mach, who coached the national
track team in his native Poland for 20 years before
coming to Canada, is regarded by some as a major blow
tothe CTFA,

**At crucial times he was always the one you could
go to and get a ruling,”’ said John Cannon, a national
sprints coach who works out of the Calgary Spartans

“There's a bit of consternation about the national
system, the relative instability of the CTFA and the lack
of focus for what the national team is doing,’’ said
Clement.

For example, Clement said, no announcement has
been made about the schedule or track and field
coaching staff for the Francophone Games which are
being held in Morocco in July.

The CTFA was $250,000 in debt after the*Seoul
Olympics and now faces substantial legal bills from the
law firmrepresenting it at the Dubin inquiry.

Clement said even though-the Harry Jerome meet
in Vancouver on June 10 — the first major outdoor meet
in Canada this season — has lost commercial sponsors,
there was enough money generated in past years to keep
the meet going this year.

“*A lot of corporate sponsors are sitting on the fen-
ce right now and aren’t going to do: much until (Mr.
Justice Charles) Dubin delivers his message,"’ Clement
said.

But with Johnson ineligible to compete, European
meet promoters and corporate sponsors are taking a
hard look at their involvement with Canadian track and

career is likely over.

Razor story
uncovered
by letter

During Heritage Week we ran a story on fire chief
Bob Mann and an old CPR lock and key which had
figured:dramatically in his young life. At that time we
Suggested that there were probably many other stories
connected to the artifacts which we had gathered at the
Rail Station and we were right.

There is an old Rolls razor at the station. Nick
Chernoff gave it to us along with many other things.

In its day the Rolls (the razor not the car) was the
first real blow to the old straight edge (cut throat)
razors. It came in a self-contained box with sharpener
and honer and heavy blade and symbolized coming of
age to the young man who was just starting to shave.

This particular razor caught the eye of the visitor
Davie MacDonald and therein lies a letter and the story
of acoincidence. The letter reads as follows:

Knowing that you were much involved in -the
Preservation of the CPR Station in’Castlegar and from
your writings in the Castlegar News, | think that you
would be interested in a bit of a story with regards to a
Rolls razor which is on display in the station.

The razor is inscribed with the name Murray
Stephen and | asked the woman in charge if I could pick
it up and examine it closer to confirm my recognition.

1 bought this Rolls Razor from Murray Stephen in
Blair Atholl, Perthshire, Scotland about the end of 1942
while with the general workshop section of the
Canadian Forestry Corps. Murray, being a machinist,
was transferred from another B.C. Forestry Company,
he having enlisted in the same, while working at the
same trade on the gold dredges in the Yukon. He being a
pretty good drinking man was always short of money so
he sold it to me for one pound.

1 believe this razor had been given to him by his
sister, engraved with his name and silver-plated during
the 30s, when the Rolls razor first came out. He was
some years older than I, and married a widow woman

since the war

The machine shop next to the welding shop in
which I was sargeant in charge was partially equipped
with machines which came from Balnagowan,
Rosschire, and form the estate of Sir Charles Ross, the
inventor of the Ross Rifle. He was also first president of
West Kootenay Power and Light Co. Ltd. of Rossland,
May 1897. Healso had an interest in the Velvet Mine just
over the old summit road to the west of Rossland.

There was also a drill press, milling machine, left
turning lathe, power saw and a few other things from
Balnagowan, which Murray worked on during his time
at Blair Atholl, and I have a few pictures of the interior

showing some of the fellows.

fought this razor home with me in September of
1945 to Nelson, where by mother was living. I had star-
ted work for WKP in 1936 and was at South Slocan
when | enlisted on September 16, 1940 in the 18th Co,
Canadian Forestry Corps., recruited in the East and
West Kootenay, Slocan, Arrow Lakes and Trail ares

Iretired Jan. 30, 1976, and decided to get rid of alot
of things and the’ razor went to Kootenay Exchange
(Geo. Colletti) in Nelson, along with other things.

The letter concludes:

I have rambled on at some length and trust that it
has not been boring. I do some writing and some notes
of place names, etc., for the record, for young folks who
do not know of these things. Kindest regards,

Heritage Society is having problems. The success of the
Rail Station and particularly Zuckerberg Island has
outdistanced support.

ticular phase of our development, we must have more
help. Hence, our secretary has prepared a call to arms. It

Pulpit & Pew

By Pastor IRA JOHNSON
Kinnaird Church of God

It was Sydney Harris who said:
“The commonest fallacy among
women is-that simply having children
makes one a mother ... which is as ab-
surd as believing that having a piano
makes one a musician!"’ History bears
out the fact that when mothers have
fulfilled their role wisely and well,
society has been blessed. When
mothers have lived wickedly and
selfishly, society has suffered accor.
dingly. What does the Bible have to say
about the) characteriestics of true
motherhood?

According to Proverbs 31:10-12, her
husband can have. full confidence in
her, for she will do him good, not
harm, all the days of her life. He need
not worry about her not being faithful
to him; but more than that she actively
seek the good of her husband and
family. The writer of the Proverbs goes
on tosay that

‘She speaks with wisdom, and
faithful instruction is on her tongue
She watches over the affairs of her
household and does not eat the bread
of idleness. Her children arise and call
her blessed; her husband also, and he
Praises her!"’ ~

Today, many mothers work outside
the home, and quite often this works a
hardship on family life. However, our
account from the Bible speaks of this
godly wife and mother as a person who
buys property, who trades profitably,
who seemingly runs a business, and yet
takes excellent care of her family’s
physical, emotional and spiritual
needs! (see verses 13-28) bf

What is her secret? She reverences
God and has gained wisdom — so she is
