Perry newest hero

By JOHN COTTER

NEW YORK: (REUTER) — In a country of instant. celebrities, ‘the newest hero in the United States is a~ 22-year-old who stands 74 inches tall, weighs 308 pounds.and is simply — and respectfully — called The Refrigerator.

William Perry is only a National Football League rookie but his exploits on dnd off the field have added a dash of humanity and romance to a game some critics describe as a bashing match between robots with big shoulders and no necks. 3 x

One of 12 children from a small southern town, Perry has risen above scorn and is about to garner one of the rewards of quick fame: advertising dollars.

The Refrigerator is besieged by offers to endorse everything from thermal underwear to, yes, refrigerators.

When he began playing in mid-summer, Perry was vilified as a fat slob and worse by many analysts of the game. He was the first pick of Chicago Bears after playing college ball at Clemson.

They pointed out with cynical chuckles that his weight might balloon to 350 pounds depending on how many plates of favored fried chicken he devoured.

But in nine weeks, Perry has won a multitude of believers.

As a defensive tackle, a usually anonymous line position, he has helped lead the Bears to a league-leading 9-0 mark. Twice he’s been switched to offensive roles and twice he has scored decisive touchdowns.

SMILE APPEALING

But it is mostly his gap-toothed smile and unassuming

nature that have captured the fancy of Ameri

He has. app don the ‘ks’ morning talk shows and his agents ‘are negotiating appearances on the nightly news and a late night sitdown with Johnny Carson, whose program is the status symbol of the celebrity set. z

‘The Wall Street Journal, which does not have a sports page, featured him in a front page article. - i

The Daily News carried two separate columns about Perry one day, including an interview with his mother and some of her favorite recipes, and a boxing-style tale-of-the-tape cartoon pitting his measurements against a refrigerator.

0, what is the appeal? “He's bringing some personality to a game that has in

.many ways gone stale,” said Pat O'Malley, a sales executive

and diehard football fan} “He may be a flash in the pan, but I love it.”

“He represents the underdog.” says Mark Mottaz, Perry's lawyer. “People said a lot of disparaging things about him at the beginning and he's proved them_wrong.”

“He's big, as in large, and he's different — that’s it,” said Frank Albanese of a Madison Avenue advertising firm. “If the hype keeps up he could be another Mister T, especially with the kids.”

KEEPS HIS HEAD

Perry is aware of his growing fame, but seems almost reluctant to discuss it.

“You've got to just let it come one day and go the next,” he said. “You don't let it build all up and get beside yourself.”

Harmston places 30th

Delta won the boys title with a time of 25:10 for 7.2 kil- ometres. The top Kootenay boy was Nick Chatten of Grand Forks, who was 28th.

A total of 233 girls and 289 boys finished the race.

In team placings, Mt. Douglas of Victoria was first in the boys standings. J.L. Crowe of Trail was fourth.

Vernon was the top team in the girls standings. KJSS

came 14th. A total of 85 schools participated_in the provincials and 30 schools had teams.

_ Ski clubs amalgamate

The Ben Shaw Ski Society and the Nordic Ski Touring Club of Castlegar have amal- gamated to form one club.

The signing of an agree- ment took place recently, amalgamating the two local cross-country ski. clubs _in- volved in the Nancy Greene- Paulson ski area. The Ben Shaw Ski Society and the Nordic Ski Touring Club will be known by the name of the latter organization.

Colin Pryce, former. presi- dent of the Ben Shaw Club, cited the major reason for the merger as being the need for

in the Paulson area.

As the ski trail network expands, and more skiers use the trails (over 6,000 last season) it was felt that one larger group could best coor- dinate the development of the trails as well as liasing with the Forest Service, he said.

Nordic Club president Ja- akko Hartman also noted that it will now be easier to plan groomed tracking in the area and organize future citi- zen races and marathons.

However, the Ben Shaw name, synonymous with the

cooperation in the develop- ment and mai of new trails and cabin facilities

f early

of cross- country skiing in the Mud

Lake area, will not be lost. The shelter bearing- that name will be maintained and the major awards in the Nor- dic Club's citizens race in March 1986 will be named after Ben Shaw.

As well, two directorships have been created on the Nordic Club executive solely for the purpose of: providing input from former Ben Shaw members into future develop- ments west of Mud Lake.

Also in accordance with the wishes of the Ben Shaw executive, some of the trails in the area (Spruce and Sun- shine) will be left untracked for ski touring enthusiasts.

Ladies help minor hockey

\ By GRAHAM READ

Arriving at the Pioneer Arena for your son to enjoy a game of hockey, you have little to do but wait in a cold arena for your son to finish. The temperature outside is -20 or so, but inside could be colder. You stand and watch the game. :

A quick glance to the end- of the-arena,you-spot ladies standing in a nice warm room. These ladies are mothers of some boys playing hockey. They are looking after the concession. They have warm coffee and hot chocolate for your enjoyment plus numerous snacks.

You dream of days gone by. Grandma would give you a nice warm drink to take away a chill just as we do for our children on a cold winter's day.

The ladies auxiliary to Minor Hockey headed by Brenda Barr, Barb Junker, Rita Perrier, Fern Allam, and Dee Lewis must spend countless hours during a hockey season arranging for supplies and cleaning the concession plus warm-up room so that we can enjoy a coffee or

THE LEGION HONORS DEAD, SERVES LIVING

Editor's note: Following. is ‘columnist John Charters's address at the-1985 Castlegar Remembrance Day services. eeuive _ .OnNov. 11 of each year, we take a few minutes — as we do now — to remember and honor those who served and gave their lives in the cause of our freedom today.

But the remembering and honoring this year is of special .

significance since it marks the eve of the 60th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Legion; 60 years of honoring the dead, a lifetime of daily service to the living.

In his familiar and much loved poem, In Flanders Fields, to which I direct you now, you will see that John McCrae has done three things in the three verses. In the first verse he sets the stage with-his description of “the crosses row on row”, symbols of sacrifice, amidst the blood-red poppies.

‘The Legion never stops trying’

In the second he establishes the link between we, the living, and the generation of youthful dead. In the third verse he flings the challenge to all the generations who” will follow afterward:

Take up our quarrel with the foe

* To you, from failing hands we throw

The torch, be yours to hold it high. .

Sixty years ago the Legion accepted the challenge, caughtthe torch in strong, committed hands and has lighted the years of memory for those who paid, and still pay, so dearly for the cause of freedom for us all.

Furthermore, keep in mind the fact that freedom must be won again and again and, that while the forces of

itarianism were def d on the Id, they are still alive and well in a hundred guises across the world. Moreover, they are as ably ‘assisted as ever by their

sacrifice of our dead is honored and not forgotten while the living are remembered and supported and strengthened every day. J

The battle for freedom never stops, but as one

With its now 600,000 members and adherents, the Legion has been a powerful voice speaking for veterans and their families over the years — a new voice in the age-long history of neglect. Pacific Command alone with its 179 and 113,000 i has

im established an incredible record — $63 million in the past 28 years for senior citizens housing.

In 1984 alone it gave $580,000 from the Poppy Fund directly to the veterans, as well as $47,000 to the support of family practice at the University of B.C. medical school, and equal amounts to the geriatric division. Each year the Legion Ladies Auxiliaries raise more than $2.5 million for hospitals and bursaries.

Closer to home, an examination of the Castlegar Legion list of donations revealed two-thirds of a page of grants in six months to youth groups, athletics, medical research, bursaries and community events, not to mention thousands of hours of volunteer labor.

In a world which too often seems cynical, selfish, irresponsible and indifferent, the Royal Canadian Legion can hold its-head up proudly, for by its efforts, the

ions by the Royal Canadian Legion, the torch symbol will, as we suggested earlier, feature prominently where the Legion is involved. However, one fact cannot be overlooked: the. Legion and the community are essentially a part of the same fabric. What injures one injures both; what benefits one benefits both.

As Jim Moore points out, the average age of Canadian veterans is now 66. The hands that have held up the torch are getting older and more tired. The Castlegar Legion Branch 170 is trying to fit in all association members to take more responsibility in the branch, in carrying that torch.

It hopes, moreover, that all members of the community will come forward with an offer of help at this special time in the Legion's history.

It’s easy. Just say, “Can I give you a hand?”

You'll be surprised.
