January 28, 1990 a) Castlegar News Dirks addresses meeting By JOHN CHARTERS Provincial Secretary Howard Dirks was the feature speaker at the Castlegar Rotary Club meeting Jan. 23 As a Nelson Rotarian, the visit gave him an attendance make-up with his club, he said. More impor- tantly, it afforded him an opportun- ity to rally community support for the proposed Celgar pulp mill ex pansion project. He indicated that the economic future of the area was linked strong- ly to the early development of the new mill. In job creation alone it would mean an initial 200 new jobs rising to 1,400 when fully opera- tional with state-of-the-art technol- ogy to meet the highest environ- mental standards in Canada, he said Taking advantage of an excess of chips in the industry today, the new ha ee Oe: mill would improve conditions ‘of residents and visitors, eliminate waste and benefit the economy of the entire area, Dirks said. It is a “win, win, win’ situation,- he said, but it needs informed, positive local support and he urged local citizens to visit and make full use of the Castlegar infor- mation centre in the City Centre Square mall downtown At. the conclusion of his address, Dirks was presented with a 40-page information-album on the develop ment of the Zuckerberg Island Heri- tage Park and the Castlegar Rail Station projects. The volume con- tained news clippings, photographs and other’ material to outline the historical, cultural and esthetic val- ues of the project starting with the purchase of the properties by the city, the initial sponsorship and con- tinued support by the Castlegar Rotary club, government, industry, local citizens, volunteer labor’ and the media, particularly the Castlegar News and radio station CKQR. It had been collated by John and Bunny Charters and presented on behalf of the Rotary Club and the Castlegar and District Heritage Soci- ety. In his presentation to the minis- ter, John Charters said the Zucker berg Island Heritage Park was not only an essential part of local history and culture but a valuable community investment. It had cost the city of Castlegar $85,000 to purchase it. With the input of private and public funds and labor it is worth $1 million. It is a major tourist attraction in the area with visitor numbers rising from a couple of dozen seven years ago to 4,500 last year and 12,000 this season — an income of hundreds of thousands of tourist dollars. The Rail Station which had been a backdrop for a made-in-Nelson mov- ip had been purchased by Castlegar “and was in its turn becoming a heritage and toufist centre in its turn We do not live in isolation, how- ever. Our local industry, our local heritage and our local tourist at tractions are Only a part of a greater whole. Competition is the spur_to prosperity but cooperation in the greater area of the Kootenays and beyond is the key to its achieve: ment Charters’ concluded by pointing out in the album that Premier Bill Vander Zalm had been an enthusi astic visitor ovet three years ago ‘when we were barely started"’ and invited the premier to pay a visit to Mulroney acts quickly in latest misconduct case CP News Analysis By JIMCOYLE OTTAWA (CP) — A scan of half a dozen newspaper front pages Friday, two. days. after a federal cabinet minister quit in disgrace, shows nary a word about it Somewhere, Erik Nielsen must be saying, grudgingly, that his old boss finally got the message: act quickly, fire transgressors, cut your losses Prime Minister Brian Mulroney moved promptly after learning that Sports Minister Jean Charest had telephoned a judge who was about to rule in the case of a coach bat tling to join Canada’s Common wealth Games team Half a world away at the Games in Auckland, Charest appeared in clined at first to tough it out after Liberal opponents began baying for ministerial blood But Mulroney “arrived Wed nesday at a Conservative caucus with an ominous tone in his voice, a serious look on his face and no words of support for the 31-year old lawyer from Sherbrooke, Que There would be none of the stonewalling that characterized the Sinclair Stevens and John Fraser fiascos in 1985 and 1986 — the stubborn defence of the indefen sible which Neilsen, then deputy prime minister, said in his memoirs had driven him wild Mulroney told the Commons a few hours later that Charest had resigned Fraser minister after the tainted tui scandal.

The Dirks expressed great pleas- ure with the gift and agreed to an early visit of inspection Club vice-president Don McDow- ell, who chaired the meeting in the absence of president Lorne Trickey, introduced some half dozen guests including the club's most recent Rotary exchange student, Christabel Nhlapo from South Africa. She was accompanied and introduced by her Rotaty host-father, Bill Furey. The club has been invited to take part in the B.C. Heart Fund Curla- thon Feb, 11.

I’m going to a team that has a shot at winning a Memorial Cup and that’s the only reason you're in this league."” Green said he had heard rumors of a possible trade but never expected it to happen “1 was a little upset because I've been in Spokane for four years and I don’t know if you ever expect to get traded or not.”’ Tigers’ manager Tim Speltz said Green is the kind of player his team needs. “Green's a situation where we felt we had to give ourselves an impact player. We've lost a few games by one goal this season and we feel he can provide the extra punch we need to win those games."” Green said he hopes he can be the player who gets the Tigers ‘‘over the hump" >and into first place in the WHL's East Division “1 think Medicine Hat got the best of this trade. I'm coming here and hopefully I can score a few goals and we'll take it from there.” The Tigers are currently tied for second place in the East Division Green said the hardest thing is leaving close friends, especially his teammates, in Spokane “That's the hard part, leaving guys you've got to know over the years but I guess that’s part of the game and you just have to expect it.” Green, a former member of the Castlegar Rebels and a product of the Castlegar minor hockey system, was drafted by the New York Islanders in the second round of last year’s NHL draft Green practised with the Tigers Saturday morning and is expected to see action ina game Saturday night Woolf, 19, has 35 goals and 67 poin ts in 47 games this season.

Green has 45 goals and 89 points in 50 games this season It’s probably his last season in junior hockey according to his father Doug Green “They (the Chiefs) were trying to get the best they could for him because they feel he won't be playing junior hockey anymore (after this season) He'll either be with the New.
