The officials must bear some of the blame but, for the most part, the players on both teams didn't play the game. They are talented young athletes with considerable abi- lities — the least of which are professional wrestling and third-rate displays of boxing. Let's hope that the series with the Trail Jr. Smoke Eaters is one we can all be proud of. For the record, Trail has the winningest team that has ever come out of this league. They have played 44 games this season, including their playoff series with Rossland Warriors, and lost only three of those games. They were able to defeat our Rebels every time they played them this year. That is not lo say, however, that some of the mes weren't very close, « The Rebels will be going into this series with 14 regular players. Kenny Gorkoff,..Greg. Moreso and John Josafatow are out with injuries, Tim Paul was given a mateh penalty in the final game with Grand Forks, which carries a minimum three- n, isn't any better off; with injuries and suspensions, they won't be dressing more than 14 regul: Over the year, Trail goal- tending has been the best in the league, I feel our defense is superior and our forwards as strong as Trail's.
