Kats were up against the winless Hawks. The Lions had beaten the Mates two weeks earlier and it was clear from thé start that both teams were prepared for fierce action.

The Mates came out strong early, exploiting the Lions defence with a mixture of short and long passes. The return of quarterback Les Yard to the Slo- can lineup seemed to give the receivers an extra boost and the defence a renewed tenacity,

The Lions seemed up to the challenge and went into halftime only down six points, 12-6. They made a few adjustments at the half but could not find the end zone nearly enough.

The final score was 25-18 for the Mates and it took a clutch interception on the final drive to seal the win for the Slocan Valley team. The win put the Mates in a good position for the playoffs since they could afford to lose one of their last two games and still

Mates team representative Dave Loukianow, who scored a touch- down and a single point convert in the game. “We managed to luck out a win and that should clinch first for us.”

The other Saturday game was much less exciting as the Kats trampled the Hawks 22-6. The outcome was never in much doubt as Darryl Bojechko scored two touchdowns for the Kats and Dave Terhune added another. Kevin Murray scored the lone touchdown for the Trail Hawks.

The Kats win set up an inter- esting match-up Sunday when the Kats faced the Mates at the South Slocan Skydome also known as the field behind Mt. Sentinel High School. A win by the Mates would secure them first place while a loss would make their final regular season game versus Trail a must win situation.

The game was all Kats from the start. The Kats were clearly ready for the game and had been waiting for the opportunity to show the Mates the bitter taste of defeat. The score at the half was 19-7 and the final ended up 38-26.

Clay Martini scored three touchdowns for the Kats while Ron Coe, Dave Terhune and Adrian Marken all chipped in with one touchdown apiece. Scor- ing for the Mates were Les Yard, Vic Hoodicoff and Ian McMillan with two.

“It's hard to play two games in two days,” said Loukianow. “It's hard to get going in that second game and that’s what happened on Sunday.”

The other game on the day saw the Trail Hawks gain their first victory of the season as they sur- prised the Lions 26-0 in Trail.

The Hawks will still make the playoffs behind the Lions but they have picked a most opportune time to start a winning streak. They play their final regular season game against the Mates this Sunday in South Slocan and, if they lose, they will also play the Mates in the first round of the playoffs. Their first victory has certainly put a little scare in the Mates.

“You just never know what's going to happen in this league,” said Loukianow. “They were able to get lots of veterans back and they are the champions from last year. It’s the end of the year and it’s time for all the team’s to play good, so you never know.”

The other game this Sunday is at 2 p.m. at the Complex Field where the Lions take on the Kats who are riding a four game win- ning streak.

It takes a lot of effort to build a winning team but many times effort is simply not enough. You have to possess the people, the drive and also a little luck,

Derek Peregrym, Head Coach of the Selkirk College Cross-Country team, knows what it takes because he witnessed it last weekend. The Selkirk Saints are the Cross-Country Provincial Champi- ons for 1994 and they have the smoking running shoes to prove it.

Going into last weekend’s BCCAA Champi- onship in Abbotsford at Fraser Valley College, Pere- grym felt his team only had an outside chance of

“I was expecting a good solid second,” said Peregrym, “We got that and more. Everybody ran up to their potential which was good considering we had a long seven hour trip which was longer than anyone else.”

This is Selkirk's first championship since Pere- grym took steady hold of the running program three years ago. The team finished second the last two seasons and Peregrym was glad to finally get over

the final hurdle and finish first. He knows what it means for a small college like Selkirk to successful- ly challenge the bigger institutions.

“It’s good for the college and it says something about the quality of runners in this community and college,” said Peregrym. “You look at the other col- leges in the BCCAA and they have four or five times the population of us."

Of course Selkirk didn't win the Championship without a little “divine intervention”. It just so hap- Pened that the two largest College competitors, Okanagan and Cariboo, couldn't field a large enough team to qualify in the team standings. In Okanagan's case, one of their runners fell ill while another missed the bus. Had they been able to compete the outcome may have been much different.

But all's fair in love and cross-country running and the runners from Selkirk certainly didn't mind

Mac-Blo wants to destroy our unions

All the major industrial projects in Port Alberni and the rest of B.C. were built by contractors affiliated with the B.C. Y.T. Building Trades Unions. For decades MacMillan Bloedel and other companies have received good value and top-quality results for their construction dollar, and the workers have received fair wages and benefits for their work. Companies like MacMillan Bloedel now want to change all that.

The battle is not about lowering the costs of construction. The union contractors have been lowest bidder by a long shot on recent projects in Port Alberni, Powell River and many others.

The battle is really about union-busting. pet Union
