\ A8 CASTLEGAR NEWS, October 21, 1981 Rain keeps fires at bay Rain, in record amounts, threatened to take over the annual job of snuffing our forest fires from the sup- pression teams in the Nelson Forest Rgion. Buckets of precipitation, starting with the all time downpour of 102 mm in May and continuing with the 115 mm worth of water in June and another 88.5 mm of rain- fall in July, kept fire at bay until the clouds cleared in mid-August. By then, the protection branch had recorded only 98 blazes an most of these were put out as quickly as they were found. The brunt of the 393 fires recorded during the 1981 season that began April 15 and ended Oct. 15 was re- corded after mid-August. Flames managed to destroy just 539 hectares of forest. Even with the late season dry spell, none of the forest districts posted a fire hazard Voice of Prophecy dates back to 1930 By DIRK ZINNER ‘The International Voice of Prophecy radio broadcast was the focus of attention at the Castlegar-Trail Seventh- day Adventist Church on Oct. 10. It was pointed out that the broadcast is one of the oldest continuous religious radio programs in the world. H.MS. Richards, Sr., Speak- er Emeritus, started broad- casting from radio station KNX-Los Angeles in 1930. His first studio was a make- shift; a chicken coop in his backyard in Walnut Park, Calif. Prophecy broadcast can be heard on CKQR-1230, on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. with Boris Kositsin as speaker/ director.

While the cause of each blaze has yet to be ascer- tained, it is clear that light- ning will make the largst contribution to the total. It struck most in the Rev- elstoke Forest District set- ting off 141 blazes, the most reported by any forest dis- trict in this region. The serial rappellers of Kusawa Contractors Ltd. were called upon to knock the wind out of 52 fires where- ver they occurred. * Fire fighters at Kootenay Lake and Invermere Forest districts almost dropped their guard as they ran through just 25 and 27 fire drills respectively. The Cranbrook crew scrambled to snuff out 55 cases of fires while the sup- pression experts in Golden met their challenge 67 times. Only 39 fires broke out in the Arrow Forest district and 37 in Boundary country. Putting the fires out burned up $1 million. The 393 fires fought in the Nelson Forest Region this year pushed the provincial total to 2,696, topping the where aired.

Library trustees to meet Trail Public Library Board trustee, Mrs. Jean Turnbull, will be one of the panelists at the B.C. Library Trustees Association Workshop to be held. Nov. 6 at the coast. She will be amongst ll. brary trustees from the farthest reaches of the prov- ince who are scheduled to gather for their Fall Work- shop at the Delta Airport Inn in Richmond, B.C. David C. Phillips, Faculty of Commerce, UBC, will lead the panel on the timely theme of “The Library Trus- tee and Labor Relations.” Topics to be covered by the panel will touch on negoti- ating union contracts, the non-union library, staff and policy manuals, using mu- nicipal and regional experts, § understanding a contract, salary scales, and specific experiences with relations to the particular library. Phillips will review the Labor Code and the New Employments Standards Act which every library trustee should be aware of, and em- at coast ployee and employer rights. Other panelists will be Phillip Rankin, trustee, Van- couver Public Library and member of the Vancouver School Board; Stan Smith, chief librarian, Prince George Public Library; and Joe Si- queira, chief librarian, Rich- mond Public Library. Library trustees are ap- pointed by their local re- gional or municipal’ govern- ments for a period of two years, serving toa maximum of eight years. They serve without renumeration and are all vitally interested in their local library service. Workshops of this calibre help them maintain open lines of communication with other trustees and profes- sional librarians from all over the province, Canada and the United States, in order to better serve the needs of their own communities.

Da- Costa said she told students to do what they wanted, and students decided among themselves to march to the board office. Castlegar News reporter Ron Norman, who was on the scene, said he understood DaCosta to indicate students move on to the board office’ and stands by that. “Getting into a little mischief this Halloween?” PHARMASAVE For all your supplies & decorations. © Realistic Rubber Masks (From $5.99 to $25.99) e Full Length Vinyl Costumes © Complete Make-up Window Decorations Kits Inflatables for party favors ‘© Safety Flashers Halloween Treats Battery operated for your Galore ety child's sa © Party Decorations Trick or Treat Bags Easily seen at a distance & Cards AND MORE!

Arbour laid it on the line. “We were a disaster,” New York Islanders’ head coach said Tuesday night after watching his team blow a 6-5 lead in losing 9-6 to Les An- geles Kings. “We were so bad, we even looked bad in the warmup.” It was the first loss of the National Hockey League sea- son after four wins and a tie for the defending Stanley Cup champions. It was not the defeat that caused Ar- bour to wince — it was the manner in which it occurred. “I had a feeling my guys were only concerned about how many goals they were going to get against this team. They didn’t care about anything else. The only thing that counts is the present and the future. In other NHL games Tues- day, Boston Bruins won their fifth game in seven, 4-3 over St. Louis Blues; game with a power-play goal at 8:48 on a backhander in the slot after picking up a loose puck. Steve Bozek got the go- ahead goal at 6:21 on an as- sist from Marcel Dionne, who scored three times. John Paul Kelly, who also scored three times, then followed with two straight, the first at 8:19 on a rebound off the pads of Islander goaltender Rollie Melanson and the sec- ond at 11:08 from close range. Greg Terrion also scored for the Kings, 3-8-0. Bourne had two goals, as did Mike Bossy, and Tomas Jonsson and Ken Morrow singles for the Islanders. “Kelly is just a mucker, a guy who works the boards,” said Los Angeles coach Par- ker MacDonald. “I'm happy to see a guy like this have this night. “He's not the greatest scorer but he works very hard.” Oilers edged Calgary Flames 5-4; and Pittsburgh Penguins downed Colorado Rockies The Islanders’ loss came on home ice. After Bob Bourne gave New York a 6-5 lead on a short-handed goal at 1:27 of the final period, the Kings went wild. Larry Murphy tied the The 2l1-y Id native had only one goal en- tering the game. He was the beneficiary of a wide-open game that gave him the op- portunity to score. “It’s the first time in six years, since my first year in juniors, that I've got three goals in one game,” Kelly said. “Our line has chances in the last few games. “Tonight, every shot seemed to go in.” Los Angeles goaltender Jim Rutherford, 82, a native of Beeton, Ont., remained unbeaten as a King, register- ing his third win this season and sixth since being ac- quired from Toronto Maple Leafs last March 10. OILERS 5 FLAMES 4 The Flames lost only five of 40 home games last season but have not -yon in the Stampede Corral in thrce games so far this season. Paul Coffey, Matti Hag- man, Wayne Gretzky, Dave Hunter and Glenn Anderson scored for the Oilers, 4-3-0, who held period leads of 2-1 and 4-2, Paul Reinhart, Don Lever, Dan Labraaten and Guy Chouinard scored for the Flames, 1-6-1, who outshot the Oilers 33-26. Roh Low has the winning goaltender, Pat Riggin the loser. “It's a tough. building from which to get two points,” said coach Glen Sather of the . Oilers, who lead the Smythe Division of the Campbell Conference. “They're still a good club. “They'll snap out of it. It's just that they're in a little bit of a slump right now.” PENGUINS 5 ROCKIES 3 Peter Lee and Greg Ma- lone, with his fourth goal of the season on a power play, gave the Penguins an early lead they never relinguished Warriors top Regina By Th Press A signal from Darren Boy- ~ko’ -of:- Winnipeg. Warriors. made all the difference Tues- day night for Winnipeg War- riors of the Western Hockey League. Boyko’s call to team-mate Danny Sylvester led toa pass and a goal at 6:40 of over- time, giving:the Warriors a 6-5 win over Regina Pats. “Danny heard me call him and he got me the puck in the clear,” Boyko said. “I lost control of it over the blue line. But the goalie made a mistake and came out at me and I was able to go around him.” sy had sent the game into overtime with a -tying. goal-at 18:16" of ‘the third period. Bruce Schmidt got two goals for the War- riors, who felt avenged for their 5-4 loss last Saturday night in Regina. Winnipeg coach Bruce Southern said the Watriors “were only able to play with three lines because we only had 11 forwards dressed. And the guys were tired but they worked very hard.” Brent Pascal and Dave Michayluk scored two goals each for the Pats but the team effort was a disappoint- ment to coach Bill LaForge. “We've got to win a game on tle road one of these days,”--he-- saidr-“We---had enough chances tonight to win two hockey games. We had the momentum in the first period and we let it change hands.” In other games, Saskatoon Blades whipped the visiting Seattle Breakers 9-4 and Portland Winter Hawks de- feated Victoria Cougars 6-4. The Cougars’ loss broke a 28-game unbeaten string on home ice. Their last defeat in Vietoria in regular-season play was last Nov. 29. “It’s been a long time since T’'ve seen a Victoria team play in front of a small home crowd of 6,763. Gregg Sheppard, Rod Schutt and Doug Shedden also scored for Pittsburgh, 8-4-1, Brent Ashton scored his third and fourth goals of the season and Tapio Levo added one for the Rockies, 1-6-1.

The Blues fell to a 2-4-0 and remained in last place in the Campbell Con- ference’s Norris Division. The Bruins squandered a 8-0 lead built on goals by Normand Leveille, Barry Pederson ard Brad Park. Bernie Federko scored twice and Mike Zuke added another at 9:21 of the third period to draw the Blues even, temporarily.

Wishlow Yankee Stadium, modern zoo By Al Colletti NEW YORK (CP) — In the dirty subway yards not far from Yankee Stadium, they use the meanwest guard dogs and high fences to keep graf- fiti saboteurs away from the trains. It works. But there is no defence against bottle-throwers in the ballpark and that makes manager Tom Lasorda of Los Angeles; Dodgers -angry- When they played in Brooklyn until ‘the early 19508, the enemy got whacked mostly with rotten fish and vegetables. Yankee Stadium is base- ball's modern zoo. For the 1981 World Series, it was relatively quiet — a nice respite from a spate of mur- ders ranging from babies to cab drivers that have cap- tured tabloid headlines.

Down 50, the’ Dodgers « nibbled.away.at.the.lead-and. « were beginning to get to starter Ron Guidry. After seven innings, Yankee man- ager Bob Lemon told Guidry .to take a shower. Lasorda said that when Baker was retrieving Win- field's long fly, a fan threw a bottle that just missed Ba- ker’s head. He complained to the umpire and later said that such incidents must be stopped before a player is badly burt. “It amazes the hell out of and Seattle a Calgary. Alouettes could be kicked out MONTREAL (CP) — The Canadian Football League's Montreal Alouettes could be kicked out of Olympic Sta- dium if team owners don't come up with a‘ $300,000 contract guarantee for its use, officials with the Quebec government's Olympic Instal- lations Board said Tuesday. The board, which oversees administration of install- ations built for the 1976 Summer Olmypics Games, sent the Alouettes a notice of default and a summons in September in connection with payment of the contract guarantee. The team was given 30 days to pay, but board spokesmen say the Alouettes have not replied. Lucien Saulnier, board president, said the filo will be studied next Wednesday to decide “what steps to take next to recuperate what it is owed.” The board could opt to cancel the contract, which would mean “no more sta- dium for the Alouettes,’ Saulnier said. The team owes the board for rental fees, advertising costs and-rent for its offices in the stadium, “but it's over the contract guarantee that a major problem could come up,” said Saulnier. “This guarantee has never been paid. It goes back to the time of the Bergers (former Alouettes owner Sam Berger who signed the contract in 1980).” Life hectic WINNIPEG (CP) — There are no typical days for ath- letes Diane Jones-Konihow- ski and husband John Kon- ihowski. *‘ Diane, one of Canada’s top female track and field ath- letes, recently phoned John, areceiver with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, from Aus- tralia.

The couple established Edmonton as home base. But early this season he was traded to the Bombers and since then the Koni- howski’s have seen little of each other. “It’s been wild... really wild,” Diane said, shaking her head as she took a break down a exhibit Present owner Nelson Skelbania, reached by tele- phone in Vancouver, referred calls to his Montreal as- sociate Rene Forte who said in an interview from his home that “steps are being taken with an insurance company.” He would ot elaborate.

Before the board makes a decision ext week ‘we'll have to examine every- thing and make sure we have the power to do that (cancel the contract).” “It’s a big decision with a lot of consequences.” Skalbania contacted a Mon- treal group a month ago about 2 possible salc of the CFL team, which hasn't been drawing large crowds this year despite obtaining sev- eral high-priced players from the U.S. National Football League.
