Women curlers give it their Rink Tuesday at all during a series of games at the Castlegar Curling NAP DOES NO GOOD Stars sting Canucks VANCOUVER (CP) — A little road atmosphere Tuesday couldn't help the Vancouver Canucks solve a home- ice quandary as they lost a 3-2 NHL decision to the Minnesota North Stars. The Canuck players, who often look like they're carrying pianos on their backs in their first game at home after an Eastern road swing, checked into a local hotel for an afternoon nap and pre-game meal to simulate road conditions. But they seemed to leave their legs in the hotel. The swift-skating North Stars jumped to a 2-0 first-period lead while outshooting the sluggish Canucks 10-1. “That was probably the worst period we've had all year,” said Vancouver coach Bob McCammon, whose fourth-place Smythe Division club went 2-1-1 on the road trip that ended with a victory in Buffalo on Sunday. The experiment, he lamented, was a failure. “Obvisouly, it wasn't the answer tonight.” The Canucks did storm back to outshoot the North Stars 20-3 in the second period and score a pair of power-play goals to pull to within 3-2, but the hole had been dug. “You shouldn't expect to win any games in your own building scoring two goals,” said McCammon. “We've only got a few snipers on this team and guys like (Tony) Tanti and (Petri) Skriko have to produce. “If we don't have other people kicking in we're going to have some frustrating nights.” The North Stars got first period goals by Neal Broten and Brian Bellows on a tentative Kirk McLean in the Vancouver net. McLean was pressed into duty when scheduled starter Richard Brodeur pulled a groin muscle in the pre-game warm-up. Scott’ Bjugstad scored the winner at 13:26 of the second period on the power play with a somewhat suspect goal. He pounced on a loose puck in the Vancouver end after Rich Sutter was hooked to the ice just inside the blueline and beat McLean with a soft wrist shot to the glove side. rebounds, so if I'm giviig up some- thing, they are cleaning it right away.” ‘The win was the fourth in six games for the North Stars, 11-13-4, who now find themselves in second place in the tight Norris Division, just two points back of the Detroit Red ings. “I think this hockey club has had a bad rap on them over the years, where they've been called Team Dissension or Team Underachievers,” said Minnesota coach Herb Brooks. “I haven't seen that in these fellows. We haven't been the smartest hockey club, however, but we're coming around.” The Canucks, who remain in fourth place in the Smythe Division with a 10-15-83 record, got goals from Steve Tambellini and rookie defence- man Ian Kidd with his first NHL marker. Rockies stop Rebels Rebels rock Raiders By CasNews Staff Dave Zarikoff scored four goals and assisted on a fifth Sunday as the Castlegar Rebels skated to a 10-3 Kootenay International Junior Hockey League win over the Raiders in Elk Valley. Zarikoff, Dave Terhune and Sandy Renwick each had one goal and one assist in the first period while Walter Sheloff had one goal and Jeff Adams settled for one assist. Elk Valley managed two goals. Zarikoff scored the only two goals of the second period. Sheloff and Terhune assisted on the first goal while Terhune and Kevin Koorbatoff picked up assists on the play. Goal scorers for the Rebels in the third period were Dean Mowery, Zari- koff, Kevin Koorbatoff and Doug Jay, each with one. Korbatoff and Jay also picked up an assist each. Other assists went to Keith Semenoff, Adams, Renwick, with two, and Greg Burkin. Elk Valley managed to score one goal. On Saturday night the Rockies stopped the Rebels 7-4 in Columbia Valley. In the first period, Sheloff scored one goal and assisted on another while Adams and Zarikoff each netted single goals. Other assists went to Renwick with two and Terhune with one. Columbia Valley settled for one goal. Jay put the Rebels ahead 4-1 in the second period after he took a pass from Renwick. ‘That was the last goal the Rebels got as Columbia Valley began its come- back, scoring two goals in the second period to cut Castlegar’s lead to one. The Rockies fired four goals past Rebels goalie Nick Colvin in the third period for a final 7-4 win. The Rebels’ next game is tonight when they travel to Grand Forks. Rockettes on five game winning streak ‘The Stanley Humphries Rockettes stretched their season record to 5 wins and 0 losses with a tournament victory in Lumby over the weekend. The Canucks argued for a penalty but to no avail. TAKKO SHARP The North Stars, whose road record improved to 668 with the vietory, got strong netminding from Kari Takko who had to be particularly sharp in the second period on several deflected point shots. “There was a few scrambles in front of the net,” said the second-year netminder from Finland. “It’s not like it used to be with our defence. “Now they are clearing all the The easily defeated Seaton Secondary of Vernon 58-36 and Lumby Junior 47-26 in the preliminary round. The team was paced with strong performances by Lori Kinakin and Jenny Rezansoff at forward while Shelly Pakula and Kim Lees had good games at guard. In the final, against host Charles Bloom Secondary, the Rockettes play- ed excellent defense to shut down the taller Timberettes and come away with a 61-43 victory and the tournament championship. Jenny Rezansoff was selected most valuable player of the tournament and Arla Goolieff was selected to the all star team. The Rockettes play host in this weekend's Blue & Gold tournament in the new gym. Strong teams from Richmond, North Vancouver and Ke- lowna will provide some of the tough- est basketball of the season for the Rockettes. The tournament starts at 4 p.m. and runs Friday night and Saturday. The Rockettes open against Sum- meriand at 8:30 p.m. on Friday night. ‘The tournament concludes on Saturday with the final starting at 7:30 p.m. DALLAS (AP) — Those attending the winter baseball meetings apparently do not realize they are supposed to do little wheeling or dealing because of increased free-agent signings and no interleague trading deadline. Perhaps all that was needed to spur the trading juices of baseball's general managers, however, was to come to Dallas, where million-dollar land and oil deals are cooked up every day. On an unexpectedly busy day of dealing, three big name veterans — Dave Parker, Lee Smith and Rafael Ramirez — changed uniforms Tuesday. And there were rumblings they might soon be joined by Dave Stieb, Bob Welch, Mike Marshall, Dave Winfield and Kirk Gibson. “This is fun; maybe we'll see you again tomorrow,” Oakland manager Tony LaRussa said after the Athletics dealt pitching prospects Jose Rijoand and Tim Birtsas to Cincinnati for Parker, the six-time all-star outfielder. Parker and Smith not only switched teams, they switched leagues. In a surprise deal, the Cubs sent the right-handed Smith, the only reliever in National League history with 30 or more saves in four consecutive seasons, to the Boston Red Sox for pitchers Al Nipper and Calvin Schiraldi. “We've made a dramatic step forward,” Boston general manager Lou Gorman said, noting the Red Sox had'a major league-low 16 saves in 1987. “We've gotten one of the best relievers in baseball.” GETTING STALE Smith, the hard-throwing right-hander who has 162 saves the last five years, said: “I thought I might be going to Los Angeles. It was getting kind of stale in Chicago. It was time to move on.” The deal was the first for Jim Frey, the newly-named Cubs director of baseball operations, and seems certain to cause controversy in Chicago. In return for a proven closer, the Cubs obtained a starter, Nipper, 28, who's never won more than 11 games and a reliever, Schiraldi, 25, who struggled this season. The Reds got rid of the old, Parker, 36, to make way for the new, promising your outfielders Paul O'Neill and ‘Tracy Parker, who has « $1.4-million salary, hit career-low .253 despite respectable numbers and 97 runs batted in. LaRussa can't wait to bat Parker in the middle of a thunder-filled batting order that already includes Mark Me- fill the Astros’ hole at short. ‘There were just as many rumors as there were deals. Meanwhile, the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers were huddling over the idea of trading sluggers, with the Yankees sending right-handed-hitting Winfield to the Tigers for left-handed Gibson. Meanwhile, both leagues heard reports from their expansion committees. Philadelphia Phillies president Bill Giles sajd inter- league play could be the catalyst to bring about baseball's first expansion since Seattle and Toronto joined the AL in 1977. The AL would increase to 16 teams and‘the NL to 14 games if each adds two. Since 14-team scheduling has proven unwieldy for the AL, “interleague play is the only way I'd go for it,” Giles said. Expansion vetoed PALM_ BEACH, Fia. (CP) — The NHL's board of governors agreed-Tuesday to bend waiver rules so'Canadian teams can loan players to the country’s Olympic team. The board also agreed to shelve plans and to The U.S. Olympic team also has the option to borrow up to two players with U.S; erican-based NHL teams in the event of injuri¢s to regular Olympic team allow Edmonton owner Peter Pocklington to sell shares in the Oilers to the public. The governors, winding up a four-day meeting, also made whopping increases in fines against teams found to be ing with playing 1 on rival teams. The increase in fines is seen as a reaction to the turmoil created last winter by the Vancouver Canucks’ hiring of then-Los Angeles coach Pat Quinn. NHL president John Ziegler said the Canadian Olympic team will be asked to submit a list of five or six players it would like to borrow from the Canadian-based teams’ rosters and the NHL team and player must both consent to his participation in the Olympic tournament, Which begins However, Ziegler said he'll have the final say on which players will be made available to Olympic teams. Under existing NHL _ bylaws, players must first be waived through the league before they would be allowed to play in the Olympics. DISCUSS REVENUES Expansion plans were shelved unti] the governors can agree on how to divide broadéast revenues. There had been talk before the meetings that the governors would discuss the possibility of adding three teams to the 21-team league. The league does not reveal its broadcast. revenues. However, the Toronto Globe and Mail has reported that Canadian breweries Carling O'Keefe and Molsons each pay Feb. 13. $7 million a year.

In an interview Tuesday at the annual winter baseball meetings, Rod- gers said the Jays have a tendency to “waste the time” of other clubs, the newspaper reported. “I'm not criticizing them, but they shouldn't make people bust their chops the way they do,” Rodgers was quoted as saying. “We had trouble talking to the Jays at the meetings here in 1960 when I was managing the (Milwaukee) Brewers. “They offered us (pitchers) Jim Clancy and Dave Stieb then — when they were both good — but they kept talking and talking without getting anything accomplished.” Meanwhile, the Toronto Star reported that Jays general manager Pat Gillick sounded frustrated at his inability so far to make a trade at the meetings. “I don't want to knock other teams,” Gillick told the Star. “But a lot of clubs cannot make a deal without tracking somebody down and running it by ‘them. “Some people don't have the authority without checking with some- body higher up and that takes time.” Gillick met with the Los Angels Dodgers and Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. Dodgers advance scout Jerry Stephenson said the two teams “have been going at it hot and heavy” for three consecutive days. The Jays are rumored to be interested in right-handed pitcher Bob Welch, a valuable commodity the Dogers are dangling in front of several pitching-hungry teams. The were said to be interested in shortstop Manny Lee and either righthander Dave Stieb or left- hander John Cerutti, With the elbow of regular short- stop Tony Fernandez still healing — he won't be able to try throwing until January, the Jays might be less willing to part with Lee. Lee proved himself capable of playing the position after Fernandez fractured his elbow before the final week of the season.
