Hi-Arrow Devils steamrolled by _ hungry Dexter's Dynamos crew Castlegar’s Hi-Arrow Devils steamroller ran out of gas Sunday, May 12 as they were defeated by their in-town rivals by a score of 3-0. Dexter's Dynamos played a deadly efficient rain soaked game to take their first West Kootenay Soccer League win of the season. - “The boys were hungry,” said Dynamos coach Ed Chaves. “They wanted to win this game and today it all came together. The Devils played well but that's the way it goes. Don’t cver underestimate the human being.” : Louie Costa opened for the Dynamos with a goal late in the first while in the same half Devils goalkeeper executed a brilliant save, holding the Dynamos scoreless for the remainder. . Devils offensive tactics kept the ball in the Dynamos’ end for the better part of the game but they just couldn’t seem to put it in the riet. The Dynamos wrapped things up with two additional goals in the sec- ond half. “] think in the first half we certainly missed a lot of opportunities,” said.

He was real support- ive and gave me lots of responsibility,” Ball said. x After seven-and-a-half years at the Calgary herald, Ball had worked his way up to a district sales representative position in the paper's circulation department. 8 ; “I wasn’t really enjoying the job, confided Ball, who began working at the paper after spending a year at L ian University where he was enroled in the Sports Administration program. : An active athlete, Ball looked to the tourism industry as offering lots of career potential while enabling him to pursue a lifestyle he enjoyed. He leamed of Selkirk College’s golf club management program while golfing one day with Tambolini, a member of the program’s advisory committee. Supported by Tambolini’s letter o ion, Ball was into the charter class. Ball faced some tough choices once he finished the program. As the pro- gram’s top student, he considered job offers from large and small opera- tions before deciding to sign on a general manager of the Moberly Lake Golf Club, located 30 km north of Chetwyn, BC.
