SUN STAFF PHOTO John Van Putten = Glade Continued from 1A As ordinary people become more aware of the “big life” about the state of our forests after years of terrible logging practices, these people are start- ging of Glade Creek watershed, Ministry officials cited examples of Hasty Creek (83 people arrest- ed) and Lasca Creek (75 people arrested) as what could happen when residents reject a Technical Cc i and take other mea- ing to di ponsibility for these practices. Logging compa- nies and politicians have been avoiding this responsibility for years. The response of Ministry officials and our local MLA’s now — to set up a Technical Committee to discuss more log- ging in another watershed — does not approach responsibility. Somehow the system has to respond to the very public input it seeks from the residents, and stop this logging. When asked what options the people had that opposed the log- ANDITSA wt ‘ $3995 GOOD,VYEAR . % AG OUR LOWEST PRICE ALL SEASON RADIAL IS A coooZvear S4S P155/80R13 $39.95 P185/75R14 54.95 P195/75R14 55.95 P205/75R14 63.95 P205/75R15 65.95 P215/75R15 67.95 P225/75R15 72.95 THESE PRICES INCLUDE OUR FAMOUS CUSTOMER PROTECTION POLICY & @ ‘on 4 cee] ALIGNMENT At Most L Services Pcl and Contact Your Local Kal Tire Service Centre Priced sures. Some option! Do 300 Glade residents need to be arrest- ed to get someone to listen? Will this change the decision to log? True responsibility here — to the Earth, to the plants and ani- mals and people of Glade Creek watershed — would be for gov- ernment officials and politicians to stand up and say: ‘We are lis- tening. We are not going to log near your water supply. We are going to reverse this decision.” True responsibility would be rec- ognizing that water — the essence of life — is of priceless value in a clean state, and that the forests that keep this water clean should be protected in watersheds. Let's stop playing God here! Neither the Ministry officials nor the politicians nor the company workers nor the residents know what will really happen to Glade water supply if these trees are cut. All the computer modeling and committee planning cannot predict the effects on water quali- ty and quantity. All we do know is that we don't know ... the effects of i said: “The buck stops here.” What would be the conse- quences of setting a precedent to not log in Glade Creek water- shed? What is of more value here — 80 hectares of logs or continued good water supply? When will we see this kind of pment in BC's forests will never be known. But we are slowly destroying the oxygen bank of Canada's West.

Both she and her squad had a little trouble hiding their elation at the result “We're supposed to be hum- ble aren’t we?” When the two teams met up in Rossland two weeks ago, Rossland won 6-0. Chernoff was pleased with how well they operated as a team against Rossland while missing three of their regular senior starters. “It was really nice to see the three new juniors plugged in there.” Karen Akslesen, Takia Casler, and Jennifer Chernoff all helped the team make histo- In the team’s practices and in their strategy to this point, the focus has been on defense “We haven't worked on the forward part of the game,” said Cheroff. With only one return- ing senior on the defensive squad, the back squad had to be solidified so the forwards can have the confidence to take the game.

She can make the university teams if she chooses to go that route,” added Chernoff. In the second game of the day, they lost a physical, rough game to the Rossland Ladies 3-2 With one month left until the playoffs, the team is looking towards building up the offense in their game. “This game is so difficult to leam, it takes practice and prac- tice.” But that’s on the slate, and Chernoff is looking forward to seeing the end product “Once we start getting some practice we'll be popping them in.” An important part of that stronger offense is a strategic game. Being smaller than a lot of their rivals, it’s important for the girls to be able to read the opposition, and to be able to pick apart their defenses. “Everything we do now will be aimed towards winning the West Kootenay, and going to [the provincials in] Squamish.” fF 42 48 38 24 20 15 18 16 NOWNNON=g Castlegar Dexters O Nakusp 0 (forfeit) Rossland 1 Castlegar Hi-Arrow 1 127 6 10 151 103 8 137 175 6 86 144 (e) ESULTS Bulldogs 25+ Dixie Lee Hawks 28 of the slots we picked open.” Trail only crossed the goal line in the first, with a run-in by quar. terback Ron Coe, And a two point conversion by Dwayne McDonell Trail led 8-6 at the half, but after that it was all Castlegar.

As defending champs, they're off to East Vancouver to compete in the provincial cham- Co a pionships. The three game win- ning streak may help, said Camp- bell. “It gives us a boost of confi- dence going down there.” He expects the competition may be tough. Many of the Lower Main- land teams have been playing football a lot longer than the Kats. But the last three games have told Campbell something. “IT think we gel really well as a unit.” And though he knows it will be tough, there is a bottom line. “It'll be an experience down there.” * | js 4 ON. al Clay Martini gives it a spin to celebrate breakin’ in to the endzone. SUN SPORTS PHOTO / Jason Keenan Minor hockey needs a few good people JASON KEENAN, Sun Sports Editor Castlegar minor hockey is looking for a few good people. A major growth in the number of budding young Gretzkys in town has stretched the coaching and administration of minor hockey to its limits. ‘The problem is the price you pay for sucess’ — JIM CRAIG President Castlegar Minor Hockey “The problem is the price you pay for success,” said Jim Craig, the president of minor hockey. Registration is up about 40 over last year, to just over 260. “It’s created a lot of need for parental participation in coaching and volunteering,” he added Help is needed in all aspects of the organization, including the parents group that does the fundraising for the teams, on the executive, as well as coaching The Castlegar and District Recreation Department has been doing a lot of work to accommo- date the growth of minor hockey, and find ice time in an already tight situation. Now they need the help of parents, and people who have not been involved with hockey over the past few years to make it another successful year. “We've got the programs in place. We just need the people to help us run them.” Right now the league is look ing to fill the following positions tournament co-ordinator, two or three spots on the executive; and coaches on the midget, bantam, pee wee, and atom house teams, as well the atom initiation and \ novice teams. The two junior levels face the biggest need for coaches, with 105 novice and 75 atom skaters already registered. That makes up about two-thirds of minor hockey. Craig said the program bene- fits both the parents and the kids involved. The time parents and- - kids have together is always lim- ited, and minor hockey offers both the opportunity to spend a little more time together. “That time you have with your child is precious,” said Craig. “Those parents involved are going to end up being more ful- filled, and I think their children will too.” More parents being involved will also mean that those already involved are less likely to get burned out. The end result is a better product Last year the league put out a real solid product, including provincial ‘A’ pee wee champi- ons, a champion Atom house team, and the bantam team taking third at the provincial ‘AA’ level. The league started play on Monday, and their first games against outside teams starts on Oct. 23. So volunteers are needed as soon as possible “If they're interested in help- ing, we'll find something they can do.” Want to get involved? Call Brian Bebbeiman at 365-2155 before 6 p.m., or Jim Craig at 365- 2583 after 6 p.m.. Or you can contact any director of minor hockey,
