SPORTS Pounding by Trail leaves the Rebel team grasping for pride By FRANK ISERNIA ‘Sun staff writer Tt must have been another one of those games that: Castlegar really didn’t. want to win, and scoreboard proved it. Trail Junior Smokeaters pounded the Rebels 11 - 5 in KHL play ‘at the Castlegar > Sportsplex this past Saturday night. : Statistically speaking a Rebel victory wouldn't have changed anything. Last is last. Only team pride was on the line. “We came out of the starting gate flat had no jump, and made a lot of mental mistakes,” moaned Rebels coach Ed Baie “We were up against an experienced first place team, carried 11 midget- aged players on our 16 player ros- ter, and our goaltending just wasn’t there,” On a night when everything that could go wrong did, the perfor- mance of the midget players proved to be the only silver lining in the dark cloud. As the game progressed, it became obvious that it was the midgets who came to play. ‘The Rebels’ usual bump and forecheck style was missing, the defence consistently failed to clear the puck, and their goaltending let them down. Too many soft goals hurt the team on this night. For Trail, this victory was just Schéduld for Feb. 13 to Feb. 17 1991 Wed. 5 pm, Fri. 9 am, Sun. 5 pm * Kooteany Forum - repeat from Monday.

Phone 365-3122 what the doctor ordered, After los- ing four of their last five, this was a must win game. “We needed this win, if we want to hold onto first place we can’t let up” said Trail coach, John Stark, “We came out flying, played a good transitional game, jumped on the puck every chance we got and took the play to them. Our goaltending was great." Trail totally dominated the game, and the 66 shots fired at Castlegar netminder, Lorin Healy, confirmed it. “We came out flat in the first . couple of periods and when you play a team like Trail you can’t come out like that.You have to come out flying” remarked Rebels’ captain, Rick Crowe. Trail Junior Smokeaters opened the scoring at 2:03 of the first peri- od on a goal by Peter Geronazzo, his first of three, en route to posting, his second hatrick of the season. “It felt great. We've been in a slump and it's good to get on track. Our team needs the points and it feels good to be able to con- tribute”saidGeronazzo, Less than five minutes later Trail struck again with two quick goals, one minute apart, to take a 3-1 lead heading into the final five minutes of the first. Castlegar pulled to within one, on a goal by Mike Hunter at the 16:45 mark, but Trail restored its two-goal lead with.just under a ry tomy Best Friend . & Husband, also the Worlds' Greatest Dad minute left, and retumed to their dressing room ‘at the sound of the buzzer leading 4-2. ‘ Trail’s potent offence victim- ized Castlegar four times during the second to increase their lead by five. Dave Cammock’ 8 goal at 12:02 was the only puck that beat Trail goaltender Brent Healy. Although the Smokeaters led 8. 3, they ‘rallied for thiee more goals’ during the final frame to increase their offensive output to Vy goals on the night, Castlegar scored two Inte period ‘goals , but it was much too little, ‘ much too late. ‘The better team won.

In a boldly-stated three page press release mailed to all Angli- - can bishops in Canada the church leader warns: “This conflict has the potential to ignite the entire (Mid-East) region in unimagin- - able devastation, to pit the Muslim world against the West for decades to come, and to unleash waves of violent and racist extremism throughout the world, not least in our own country.” On Sunday morning — two weeks ago — this strongly-word- ed letter of January 17 was read to ‘ Anglican congregations from -coast to coast, including St. David's of Castlegar. Reverend Peers condemns Sad- « right cause in the purpose of war. * proportionality in the use of force. + discrimination in the application of force (protection of noncombat- ants) * reasonable prospect of success. On the question of last resort he says that South Africa has been in violation of UN resolutions for 40 years and Israel for 23 - yet sanctions and negotiations are still being pursued. On the question of right cause he asks whether the purpose of the war is to liberate Kuwait or is it a further attempt by Western pow- ers: to: dominate -Middle ‘Eastern * affair? “If the :cause-which is being pursued is the preservation of westem lifestyles (oil) then this war is not just,” he says The Primate ‘deplores the “coalition’s” apparent lack of con- cern for the lives of innocent Iraqi civilians and also regrets that due Parliamentary process was not fol- lowed in the decision to put Cana- dian forces into combat roles. He appeals to the prime Minis- ter to show Canadian leadership dam Hussein’s against Kuwait but says that the decision of the Canadian government to commit our forces to war and the call from Canadian politicians to support the war effort is deeply problematic.” There are issues bere upon which religious leaders - have a duty to comment,” he says. The church leader based his argument upon the Christian tradi- tion of applying six tests toi a con- the ion of a new world order which settles disputes in civilized way, rather than resorting to the brutalities of war — then calls upon all Canadians of good will to “pursue all efforts -to bring about peace and the ces- sation of this destruction.” The head clergyman concludes: “This war in the Persian Gulf does not meet the tests provided by tradition for a morally j fus- tifiabl at this flict to violence is morally justifiable. They are: * last resort after all. other attempts to resolve sae co conflict. e With the entry into the “ring” of church heavyweights like Rev- ~ erend Michael Peers let us hope and pray that we shall soon see Article was insensitive Dear Editor: I am writing about the article on Michael Buckingham in the!

Copies of Primates’ letter available on requcet, Harry F, Killough Reply about Cayuse from forests district Dear Editor: I read with interest the Febru- ary 06, 1991 Letter to the Editor titled “Concemed with water qual- ity and quantity” sent in by Libby Ruljancich. Her letter was cen- tered around a perceived lack of cooperation from the B.C. Forest included; 1. A commitment to meet with the CCWC at least twice a year to discuss watershed Telated issues. 2. A commitment to meet with the CCWC on site and review past, present, and any Proposed ~ harvesting Spsrations, ij Service‘in dealing with ’ isSues‘in the Cayuse ‘and Tittle Cayuse Creek “e32A ‘a hydrological review of these> Mn. Ruljancich’s letter would lead one to believe that the Forest Service is not interested in the this year, A number of the CCWC's were, in fact, In my opinion, the nature of these of the resid of this area nor are we interested in watershed planning for the Cayuse Creek area, This is absolutely untrue. The Arrow Forest District has met with Mrs. Ruljancich on innumerable occasions over the past years, both at her residence as well as this office, and I might add, over many forest manage- ment related issues. In regards to the Cayuse Creek drainage, log- ging operations have been ongoing for many years, without, to my ds were to this office taking direction from the CCWC instead of our democrati- cally elected government. In addition to these commit- ments, the Forest Service conducts regular inspections of all harvest- ing operations (on Crown land) and reviews, in considerable depth, all proposed harvesting rations, The Forest Service remains committed to being receptive to any Public | criticism and/or con- the ge, and effect to either the quality or quantity of the water resource. The Forest Service felt the meeting with the Cayuse Creeks Cc @ 03, 1990) was beneficial for a parties cem of our forests. In this regard, whether Mrs. Ruljancich chooses to believe it or not, this office will continue to treat water quality and quantity as the number one priori- ty in all domestic consumptive use appears that i Ruljancich felt otherwise.
