Kangaroos Reinstated<br />

Ritson CHL President<br />

By BOB LEAMEN<br />

The contingent that represented<br />

<strong>the</strong> Kangaroos at last<br />

evenings CHL meeting in Williams<br />

Lake are still pinching<br />

<strong>the</strong>mselves. The Kangaroos<br />

are back in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong><br />

Hockey League; Jack Ritson<br />

is president of <strong>the</strong> league;<br />

and Doug Flnlay is secretary-treasurer.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> start of yesterdays<br />

meeting, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong> Hockey<br />

League was a three team organization.<br />

The league had<br />

written <strong>the</strong> Town of <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

some weeks earlier asking<br />

that <strong>the</strong> Kangaroos apply for<br />

reinstatement in that organization.<br />

The 'Roos complied, and<br />

<strong>the</strong> first order of business<br />

Wednesday evening was to<br />

consider <strong>the</strong>ir application.<br />

The Kangaroos representatives,<br />

Carl Enemark, Ray<br />

Commons, and Mike Findlay<br />

were not present in <strong>the</strong> room<br />

as <strong>the</strong> meeting got under way.<br />

The representative from Vanderhoof<br />

moved that <strong>the</strong> first<br />

part of <strong>the</strong> meeting, that part<br />

which concerned <strong>the</strong> 'Roos<br />

reinstatement, be closedtoall<br />

those but representatives of<br />

<strong>the</strong> three clubs involved.<br />

The press retired and <strong>the</strong><br />

trio huddled.<br />

After a lengthly wait, Enemark<br />

and Commons were invited<br />

into <strong>the</strong> inner sanctum.<br />

The proposition was put forth<br />

that <strong>the</strong> club was welcome<br />

back into <strong>the</strong> league providing<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y forfeited <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

previous years $250 bond,<br />

which had su{^osldly been<br />

consumed by league expenses<br />

involving <strong>the</strong> club's suspension.<br />

The 'Roos accepted, <strong>the</strong><br />

CHL was once again a four<br />

team league, and <strong>the</strong> meeting<br />

was once again open to <strong>the</strong><br />

public.<br />

The next subject on <strong>the</strong><br />

agenda was <strong>the</strong> election of<br />

officers. Carl Enemark nominated<br />

Jack Ritson for <strong>the</strong> office<br />

of president, and <strong>the</strong> nomination<br />

went unopposed with<br />

Ritson being elected unanimously.<br />

The call for nominations<br />

for <strong>the</strong> office of vicepresident<br />

went unanswered.<br />

Next <strong>the</strong> chair called for nominations<br />

for <strong>the</strong> office of se­<br />

cretary-treasurer. Again<br />

was Enemark that took <strong>the</strong><br />

floor, and this time nominated<br />

Doug Flnlay. Again <strong>the</strong><br />

nomination stood unopposed,<br />

and Flnlay was unanimously<br />

elected.<br />

Jack Ritson took <strong>the</strong> chair,<br />

and <strong>the</strong> meeting went into <strong>the</strong><br />

general business of <strong>the</strong> league.<br />

It was decided that <strong>the</strong> same<br />

number of games as last year<br />

would be played, 36, with<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> opening at home<br />

against Prince George on October<br />

30. It was also decided<br />

that <strong>the</strong> finals and semi-finals<br />

would be best-of-seven affairs,<br />

as <strong>the</strong>y were last year.<br />

The subject of <strong>the</strong> CHL<br />

Coy Cup representative came<br />

up when Prince George suggested<br />

that it should be <strong>the</strong><br />

winners of <strong>the</strong> finals, not <strong>the</strong><br />

off t/ie record<br />

THE BIG ONES ARE BACK<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Leif Rye,<br />

fishing <strong>the</strong> <strong>Quesnel</strong> Lake at<br />

<strong>the</strong> weekend had a remarkable<br />

catch of Rainbow Trout.<br />

Mrs. Rye caught three trout<br />

weighing 18 pounds, 9 lbs,<br />

and 7 1/2 pounds, respectively.<br />

Leif himself, not to<br />

be outdone, pulled out an<br />

11 pound rainbow. The Rye's<br />

say it's <strong>the</strong> best fisliing tliey<br />

have had in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Quesnel</strong> Lake<br />

for some years.<br />

HORSEY PROBLEMS<br />

Reading <strong>the</strong> new traffic<br />

By-law it becomes apparent<br />

that horsemen will not<br />

be allowed to te<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

steeds to trees, street signs<br />

or lamp standards within <strong>the</strong><br />

Municipality. What about<br />

parking meters? Surely that<br />

is legal as long as <strong>the</strong> nickel<br />

is in <strong>the</strong> slot.<br />

it<br />

winners in league competition,<br />

that should be <strong>the</strong> Carlboo<br />

Hockey League representatives.<br />

Williams Lake complied<br />

with this suggestion, and<br />

when a vote was taken it was<br />

a tie, with Williams Lake<br />

and Prince George on one<br />

side, and <strong>Quesnel</strong> and Vanderhoof<br />

on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r. The tie<br />

breaking vote went to Jack<br />

Ritson who cast his ballot<br />

In favor of <strong>the</strong> playoff proposal.<br />

The subject of <strong>the</strong> league<br />

joining <strong>the</strong> British Columbia<br />

Amateur Hockey Association<br />

was next on <strong>the</strong> list, and drew<br />

some varied comments. Some<br />

delegates felt that membership<br />

was an extra expense,<br />

while o<strong>the</strong>rs pointed out <strong>the</strong><br />

excellent work done by <strong>the</strong><br />

BCAHA, especially In <strong>the</strong> field<br />

of minor hockey. The resolution<br />

to join was eventually<br />

passed unanimously.<br />

BCAHA representative Bert<br />

Bradley was on hand to point<br />

out that <strong>the</strong> league could get<br />

most for it's dollar by endeavoring<br />

to maintain close<br />

co-operation with <strong>the</strong> association.<br />

It was also proposed from<br />

<strong>the</strong> floor that a Ken Smi<strong>the</strong>rs<br />

Memorial Trophy be established,<br />

to be awarded each<br />

year to <strong>the</strong> player who qualified<br />

as "<strong>the</strong> most gentlemanly<br />

player v 1th outstand.<br />

Ing ability". This motion was<br />

agreed upon in principle by<br />

<strong>the</strong> delegates, and was tabled<br />

for discussion at <strong>the</strong> next<br />

meeting which is scheduled<br />

for September 29, at Prince<br />

George.<br />

committee to build up a town<br />

film library for public use.<br />

Mr. Neale told <strong>the</strong> <strong>Observer</strong><br />

that housing a collection<br />

of Film Board productions at<br />

<strong>the</strong> local library encourages<br />

would also be made<br />

available by <strong>the</strong> Board.<br />

Many of <strong>the</strong> communities<br />

in <strong>the</strong> Nor<strong>the</strong>rn Part of <strong>the</strong><br />

Province have already installed<br />

such a service and <strong>the</strong><br />

Film Board have been encouraged<br />

by <strong>the</strong> uses made<br />

of <strong>the</strong> films by clubs,schools,<br />

community ventures and private<br />

individuals.<br />

Film libraries have been<br />

built up in Williams Lake,<br />

Prince George, Hazelton, Mc­<br />

Brlde, Smi<strong>the</strong>rs and Prince<br />

Rupert among o<strong>the</strong>rs.<br />

"If this unit is housed in<br />

<strong>the</strong> library it can be made<br />

readily available to all members<br />

of <strong>the</strong> public without <strong>the</strong><br />

complications which would<br />

naturally arise if it were housed<br />

in a store or a school,"<br />

said Mr. Neale.<br />

TRAFFIC BY-LAY<br />

THIRD READING<br />

The long-awaited Traffic<br />

By-Law was given third reading<br />

by town council Tuesday.<br />

The By-Law, one of <strong>the</strong><br />

biggest read by <strong>the</strong> council,<br />

covers regulations for alli'oad<br />

users in <strong>the</strong> Municipality.<br />

Mayor Fraser was objecting<br />

on behalf of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong><br />

Union Board of Health and <strong>the</strong><br />

Corporation of <strong>the</strong> Town of<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> to an application by<br />

<strong>the</strong> City of Prince George to<br />

dump 1,670,000 gallons of primary<br />

treated sewage Into<br />

<strong>the</strong> Fraser River every 12<br />

hours.<br />

"While <strong>the</strong> City of Prince<br />

George are proposing limited<br />

treatment of<strong>the</strong> sewage, I suggest<br />

to .vou gentlemen that It<br />

is totally Inadequate in this day<br />

and age. The City of Prince<br />

George should not be allowed<br />

to consider anything o<strong>the</strong>r than<br />

complete treatment of sewage<br />

discharged into <strong>the</strong> Fraser<br />

River", Mayor Fraser told<br />

<strong>the</strong> Pollution Board.<br />

The board headed by A.F.<br />

Paget listened for more than<br />

two and a half hours of<br />

argument for and against<br />

Prince George's application.<br />

The board's decision will<br />

not be known for at least a<br />

month.<br />

The City of Prince George's<br />

proposal, put forward at <strong>the</strong><br />

hearing by W.H, Rolston and<br />

Dr. M.J, Stewart, is geared<br />

to an estimated population In<br />

1970 of 30,000. The proposal<br />

showed a six point plan for<br />

<strong>the</strong> treatment of <strong>the</strong> sewage<br />

before It Is discharged into<br />

<strong>the</strong> River.<br />

This would Include coarse<br />

screening, comminution, grit<br />

removal, fine screening,<br />

screenings disintegration with<br />

re-cycle to fine screen and<br />

chlorlnatlon. The treatment<br />

plant would be located at <strong>the</strong><br />

sou<strong>the</strong>ast corner of <strong>the</strong> city<br />

on 28 acres of land.<br />

"Provision has been made<br />

in <strong>the</strong> initial planning to provide<br />

such higher degrees of<br />

treatment as may be required<br />

by future changes In upstream<br />

conditions and downstream<br />

uses," said Mr. Rolston.<br />

He said that <strong>the</strong>se future<br />

plans would result in more<br />

complete treatment of sewage<br />

and would be incorporated<br />

as money became available.<br />

Upgrading of s e w a g e treatment<br />

would proceed in two<br />

steps. The first would be to<br />

develop primary treatment for<br />

removal of settleable solids<br />

from <strong>the</strong> raw sewage and <strong>the</strong><br />

second step would be secondary<br />

treatment for <strong>the</strong> removal<br />

of most of <strong>the</strong> suspended and<br />

dissolved organic matter.<br />

Mr. Rolston claimed that<br />

potentially liigh bacteria<br />

counts in <strong>the</strong> river by 1970<br />

would be killed off almost<br />

completely by chlorlnatlon. He<br />

estimated <strong>the</strong> kill figure at<br />

90.95 per cent.<br />

Mayor Fraser told tlie board<br />

that <strong>Quesnel</strong> drew its water<br />

supply from a system of underground<br />

wells adjacent to<br />

<strong>the</strong> Fraser River and although<br />

<strong>the</strong>re are adequate natural fil-<br />

Square Your Seis<br />

By RUTH PATCHETT<br />

The <strong>Quesnel</strong> Squares are<br />

planning an outdoor dance at<br />

<strong>the</strong> Safeway Parking lot on<br />

Friday, September 10 starting<br />

at 7:30 p.m. Wally Sanderson<br />

will be <strong>the</strong> M.C. and caller,<br />

and square dancers from<br />

Prince George, Wells, Williams<br />

Lake and o<strong>the</strong>r parts<br />

of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Cariboo</strong> are expected.<br />

Wally will start his fall<br />

Beginners' Classes at <strong>the</strong><br />

Carson Elementary School on<br />

Tuesday, October 5 from 7:30<br />

to 9:30 p.m. The <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

Squares will be having <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

weekly dances in <strong>the</strong> near<br />

future, and dates will be announced<br />

soon.<br />

• • *<br />

The suggestion made in last<br />

week's "<strong>Observer</strong>'*' regarding<br />

<strong>the</strong> completion of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

arena, so that it could be<br />

used on a year round basis for<br />

entertainment of various<br />

kinds, would certainly favor<br />

with square dancers In this<br />

area. There just Isn't a hall<br />

large enough to hold <strong>the</strong> crowd<br />

for our annual square dance<br />

Jamboree.<br />

However, whe<strong>the</strong>r this Idea<br />

would obtain <strong>the</strong> approval of<br />

<strong>the</strong> B.C. Centennial Committee,<br />

Is ano<strong>the</strong>r matter, as<br />

<strong>the</strong>re are definite rules laid<br />

down stating that <strong>the</strong> grant<br />

win not be given for fixing up<br />

an existing building, unless it<br />

is for an addition. The Committee<br />

wants a town or community<br />

to be able to point to<br />

its Centennial Project and say<br />

"That's what we did In Centennial<br />

Year". Anyway, it's<br />

worth investigating.<br />

* * *<br />

A letter in <strong>the</strong> last issue of<br />

"Sets In Order" caught my<br />

attention. In it, ErnieCarviel,<br />

a square dancer from Hamilton,<br />

Ontario, says: "We have<br />

just read in our local newspaper<br />

that both <strong>the</strong> Country<br />

Hoedown and Red River Jamboree<br />

are being dropped this<br />

year. This is in itself bad<br />

enough, because I am sure<br />

that many of us have enjoyed<br />

watching <strong>the</strong>se shows. Both<br />

Joe Johnson and Johnny Davidson,<br />

(square dance callers),<br />

have been doing a good job of<br />

presenting Western Square<br />

Dancing to <strong>the</strong> Canadian public."<br />

"Surely if <strong>the</strong> Town of <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

"It appears to me tliat tlie<br />

"Our town feels that <strong>the</strong><br />

COMMENT<br />

By BOB LEAMEN<br />

The suggestion has been made by some of my readers that I<br />

am extremely long winded on <strong>the</strong> subject of football as long as<br />

, <strong>the</strong> Bombers are on a v/lnnlng streak.<br />

It seems that a couple of gentlemen named Fleming and Kapp<br />

' have brought that winning streak to an abrupt halt.<br />

It seems that Eagle Day and company settled a little score of<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir own with <strong>the</strong> Big Blue.<br />

It seems that my predictions of last week are already starting<br />

to look a little sick.<br />

I promise never to be long winded again — until next time.<br />

* * *<br />

Which is now.<br />

There have always been certain "sacred cows" In our society,<br />

among <strong>the</strong>m: mo<strong>the</strong>rhood, little league baseball, mom's apple<br />

'^ pie, and until recently, at least In so far as coaches were con-<br />

' cerned, professional football players.<br />

There was a time when football players enjoyed complete<br />

^ Immunity from <strong>the</strong> scorn of <strong>the</strong>ir coaches — of a public nature,<br />

at least. "Wrongway Lunkhead" could scoop up afumble In <strong>the</strong><br />

, drying seconds of play and ramble 60 yards with delusions of<br />

grandeur to score awlnnlngtouchdown against his own club. The<br />

coaches reaction for <strong>the</strong> press? "You can't win <strong>the</strong>m all" or<br />

"Wrongway Just had a bad game."<br />

Of course, <strong>the</strong> coach might have a few words of wisdom for his<br />

star In privacy of <strong>the</strong> dressing room — but on <strong>the</strong> surface?<br />

- Tranquility.<br />

In days of yore, players and coaches used to hide from <strong>the</strong><br />

public any mutual criticisms that <strong>the</strong>y might have had. At one<br />

period In <strong>the</strong> history of <strong>the</strong> Bombers <strong>the</strong>re was such a degree<br />

of animosity between <strong>the</strong> coach and certain of <strong>the</strong> players that<br />

<strong>the</strong> coach was eventually forced to leave. All <strong>the</strong> time that<br />

this feud was going on, <strong>the</strong> public knew nothing about It.<br />

The gentlemen In question faded Into obscurity somewhere<br />

in <strong>the</strong> NFL. Perhaps you've heard of him Al Sherman?<br />

In <strong>the</strong> old days football stars were Indeed above reproach.<br />

But now - wow!<br />

Dave Skreln, head coach of <strong>the</strong> B.C. Lions, started <strong>the</strong> ball<br />

rolling this year when he stepped completely out of character<br />

and rapped that most sacred of all sacred cows, Joe Kapp. The<br />

occasion was that club's second loss to <strong>the</strong> Bombers. The only<br />

result of this criticism was that Skreln made himself look bad<br />

In <strong>the</strong> eyes of Kapp fans throughout <strong>the</strong> province.<br />

Next It was Bud Grant's turn.<br />

The scene was <strong>the</strong> most recent Bombers - Lions game. Joe<br />

Kapp, apparently having recovered from this mortal wound to<br />

his ego, wheeled back and fired <strong>the</strong> long bomb to Willie Fleming.<br />

Close on <strong>the</strong> heels of <strong>the</strong> "Wisp" was Bomber safety man,<br />

Dick Thornton. . .but not close enough. Flemmlng caught <strong>the</strong><br />

pass and rambled over for <strong>the</strong> winning major. Now It was Grant<br />

that stepped out of character and blasted one of his charges.<br />

Grant suggested publicly that Thornton should have been a lot<br />

closer to Willy. Perhaps he should have been perhaps he<br />

shouldn't. Be that as It may, years ago this fa<strong>the</strong>rly advice<br />

would have passed on In <strong>the</strong> privacy of a dressing room — not<br />

over <strong>the</strong> air waves.<br />

I'm not suggesting that this state of affairs Is unhealthy.<br />

These men are playing football for a living. It's <strong>the</strong>ir Job. If<br />

a man goes to work and commits ablunder that costs his company<br />

money. It's ten to one that.his boss doesn't care If <strong>the</strong><br />

, Queen herself is listening as he'rakes <strong>the</strong> poor unfortunate<br />

over <strong>the</strong> coals. By <strong>the</strong> same token, a ball player can cost his<br />

club a lot of money by making a bonehead play at a critical<br />

moment, and <strong>the</strong> coach, being only human, Is liable to call a<br />

bonehead a bonehead.<br />

There Is, never<strong>the</strong>less, in my opinion, one subtle difference.<br />

- A coach has a responsibility to his team, and to <strong>the</strong> public, to<br />

act In part as a public relations officer. I don't think that any<br />

• dyed-in-<strong>the</strong>-wool football fan thinks of his gridiron heroes as<br />

real flesh and blood people. It's all right for us to knock <strong>the</strong>m,<br />

» but don't let an outsider try It — like a good coach for Instance.<br />

Like it or not, however, it appears that football players, in <strong>the</strong><br />

'eyes of <strong>the</strong>ir coaches at least, have tumbled from <strong>the</strong>ir"<br />

pedestals.<br />

Maybe mo<strong>the</strong>rhood is next.<br />

* * •<br />

^ I am tempted to say something clever like "speaking of<br />

mo<strong>the</strong>rhood", and continue with finesse into my next topic.<br />

Unfortunately <strong>the</strong>re is no possible connection between mo<strong>the</strong>r-<br />

' hood, and what is to follow. Therefore, I will Just bravely<br />

carry on.<br />

With baseball uniforms in <strong>the</strong>ir lockers for <strong>the</strong> year, and<br />

with hockey still on <strong>the</strong> horizon, <strong>the</strong>re exists in <strong>Quesnel</strong> a<br />

• sports void that lasts from <strong>the</strong> end of August until <strong>the</strong> beginning<br />

of October.<br />

As a result, many teenagers (and o<strong>the</strong>r malcontents) spend<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir spare time hanging on street corners aimlessly kicking<br />

» at <strong>the</strong> pavement and telling lies about <strong>the</strong>ir most recent exploits<br />

with <strong>the</strong> opposite sex.<br />

Not that <strong>the</strong>re's anything wrong with standing on street corners<br />

-- but it makes a hell of a spectator sport.<br />

This is one problem that is often encountered in <strong>the</strong> world of<br />

sports. There is no one sport thai allows for a large number of<br />

participants, and at <strong>the</strong> same time remains an attractive spec-<br />

'tator sport. While persuing <strong>the</strong> pages of my favorite periodical<br />

(Mad Magazine) <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r day, I discovered that this problem,<br />

'which apparently is universal, has been solved. In <strong>the</strong> magazine<br />

was laid out rules and regulations of a brand new game that<br />

" combines <strong>the</strong> best features of both spectator and participation<br />

sports. The name of <strong>the</strong> game — "43 Man Squamish."<br />

You've never heard of 43 Man Squamish you say. Allow me to<br />

• explain <strong>the</strong> basic rules which were outlined in<strong>the</strong> magazine.<br />

There are 43 men on each side (thus allowing a large num-<br />

.ber of participants).<br />

Also present are thr o: -ials: a magistrate, a probate<br />

. judge, and a baggage smasn^. • '-^tually, once <strong>the</strong> game is underway<br />

none of <strong>the</strong>se officials h authority. If <strong>the</strong>re is any<br />

dispute, <strong>the</strong> final decision is left up to <strong>the</strong> spectator who left<br />

'his car in <strong>the</strong> parking lot with it's lights on and it's motor<br />

running.<br />

The object of <strong>the</strong> game is for one team to advance <strong>the</strong> "pritz"<br />

(an egret hide sphere stuffed with bluejay fea<strong>the</strong>rs) across <strong>the</strong><br />

'eight sided playing surface to <strong>the</strong>ir opponents goal line.<br />

The game gets underway when <strong>the</strong> probabe judge flips an<br />

• uncirculated Spanish paesta. If <strong>the</strong> home captain wins <strong>the</strong> toss,<br />

his team gets <strong>the</strong> choice of ei<strong>the</strong>r receiving, or defending against<br />

. <strong>the</strong> pritz. If <strong>the</strong> visiting captain wins, <strong>the</strong> game is called.<br />

Actually, space is too limited here for me to relate all <strong>the</strong><br />

. rules of 43 Man Squamish, (a game, incidentally, that is bound<br />

to enjoy a great deal of popularity, in <strong>the</strong> near future), so I<br />

. will just leave you with this advice. The next time you are<br />

standing on a street corner with 42 of your buddies, and you<br />

.get tired of girl-watching, just call Tim Glover at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Observer</strong><br />

(our 43 Man Squamish team captain ) and arrange a game.<br />

. If you are interested in obtaining <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong> rules, send<br />

Tim 25^, six Captain Crunch box tops, and an autographed pic-<br />

,ture of Alfred E. Neumann, and he would be more than happy<br />

to send <strong>the</strong>m out to you.<br />

MR. AND MRS. DON BURNS, <strong>the</strong> winning combination that took home <strong>the</strong> North <strong>Cariboo</strong> Challenge<br />

Trophy from Geary 18 Regatta held at Dragon Lake on <strong>the</strong> weekend.<br />

Prince George Sweeps Regatta<br />

Few breezes were felt on<br />

Dragon Lake during <strong>the</strong> weekend's<br />

Geary 18 Regatta, but<br />

when <strong>the</strong> winds did blow, <strong>the</strong>y<br />

were 111 winds for <strong>the</strong> local<br />

skippers.<br />

There Geary 18's from<br />

Prince George made <strong>the</strong> trip<br />

to Dragon Lake last weekend<br />

to take part in <strong>the</strong> North<br />

C ariboo Inter-Fleet Regatta,<br />

and <strong>the</strong>se three craft<br />

promptly placed one, two,<br />

three in <strong>the</strong> meet.<br />

A fairly strong breeze was<br />

up on Sunday, and <strong>the</strong> Prince<br />

George boats made <strong>the</strong> best of<br />

It. In <strong>the</strong> first race. Burns,<br />

Ruhl, and Skinner, all of<br />

Prince George, finished<br />

in that order. Following were<br />

Haralson, Van de Vlekkert,<br />

Sampson, and McAlister,<br />

Burns repeated his performance<br />

in <strong>the</strong> second race.<br />

but this time Albert Mulder<br />

was close on his heels, and<br />

placed second.<br />

The group from Prince<br />

George appeared to be taking<br />

turns. In <strong>the</strong> third race of <strong>the</strong><br />

meet Don Ruhl placed first,<br />

while Burns placed fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />

down in fourth position. This<br />

time Samson came in second,<br />

and Haralson, third.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> fourth and final race,<br />

Fred Skinner, not to be outdone<br />

by his Qompanions from<br />

Prince George, led <strong>the</strong>m home<br />

to make it a clean sweep for<br />

<strong>the</strong> visiting club.<br />

By virtue of <strong>the</strong> way he<br />

placed in <strong>the</strong>se four races,<br />

Don Burns was awarded first<br />

place and <strong>the</strong> North <strong>Cariboo</strong><br />

Challenge Trophy. His winning<br />

total was 29 1/2 points.<br />

Don Ruhl, and his crew,<br />

Andy Morris, also of Prince<br />

The only trophy of <strong>the</strong> day<br />

crew, Tony Green. This honor,<br />

to say <strong>the</strong> least, was a dubious<br />

Meet <strong>the</strong> Kangaroos—Ramsden<br />

Bill Ramsden brings to <strong>the</strong><br />

Kangaroos a wealth of hockey<br />

know-how, acquired during his<br />

climb from Pee Wee rinks in<br />

Winnipeg to <strong>the</strong> New York<br />

Rangers of <strong>the</strong> NHL.<br />

Bill played his Bantam and<br />

Midget hockey in that prairie<br />

city, and served as a Juvenile<br />

with <strong>the</strong> Winnipeg based West<br />

End Orioles. The Winnipeg<br />

Junior Rangers were <strong>the</strong> team<br />

that enjoyed his services at<br />

<strong>the</strong> Junior stage of his hockey<br />

career.<br />

As <strong>the</strong> Winnipeg Rangers<br />

are part of <strong>the</strong> New York<br />

Organization of <strong>the</strong> same<br />

name, when Bill turned pro,<br />

he went to <strong>the</strong> New York Ranger<br />

farm club in New Haven.<br />

During his season with that<br />

club. Bill was called upon occasionally<br />

to bolster <strong>the</strong> roster<br />

of <strong>the</strong> parent NHL club,<br />

and played a series of games<br />

with <strong>the</strong>m. •<br />

Since <strong>the</strong>n Bill has played<br />

with Tacoma, St. Paul, <strong>the</strong><br />

Saskatoon Senior Club, and<br />

spent three seasons with Spokane<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Western International<br />

League.<br />

After that, Bill got into <strong>the</strong><br />

coaching end of <strong>the</strong> game, and<br />

worked with <strong>the</strong> Native Sons,<br />

a Junior A team from Lethbridge.<br />

From Lethbridge, Bill came<br />

to <strong>Quesnel</strong>. He joined <strong>the</strong> Kangaroos<br />

in <strong>the</strong> fall of '63, and<br />

helped <strong>the</strong> locals to a league<br />

championsnip in <strong>the</strong> '63-'64<br />

season.<br />

With a brand new season<br />

looming on <strong>the</strong> horizon, <strong>the</strong><br />

Kangaroos plan to get off to<br />

an early start, and have every<br />

intention of repeating that performance.<br />

THE OUTLOOK - After a summer when so many warnings<br />

have been Issued by <strong>the</strong> Forest Service for vacationers to<br />

use extreme caution over <strong>the</strong> weekend, it is a pleasure for<br />

<strong>the</strong> Service to announce that fire hazards during <strong>the</strong> Labour<br />

Day weekend should remain low. No major increase in <strong>the</strong><br />

fire hazard is indicated.<br />

A drying trend from <strong>the</strong> northwest should bring clear<br />

skies to most of <strong>the</strong> Province. Some shower activity can<br />

be expected for eastern sections.<br />

School Opening Month<br />

September, <strong>the</strong> month of<br />

school opening, may arouse<br />

vai'led sentiments. The small<br />

one who is taking his first<br />

steps out Into <strong>the</strong> wide world,<br />

of education, will probably<br />

run <strong>the</strong> gamut of emotions<br />

- pride, fear, joy, homesickness,<br />

boredom, jealousy and<br />

an overdose of fed-upness,<br />

possibly followed by going on<br />

strike, when <strong>the</strong> whole subject<br />

of education will be ana<strong>the</strong>ma!<br />

But almost immediately things<br />

will calm down and Junior will<br />

settle in to absorb knowledge.<br />

Mama will shed a few tears<br />

at <strong>the</strong> thought of her little<br />

darling out in <strong>the</strong> cold world,<br />

but she'll soon appreciate her<br />

free hours while he is safe<br />

in school.<br />

Before he makes his debut<br />

into <strong>the</strong> new fields, he should<br />

be given a thorougli checkup<br />

by his doctor or at <strong>the</strong> child<br />

health unit at <strong>the</strong> local health<br />

department. He needs a complete<br />

examination, including<br />

his eyes, ears and teeth, so<br />

that he may start school with<br />

every possible advantage.<br />

Also important is <strong>the</strong> immunization<br />

which caji protect<br />

him against diphteria, siiiollpox,whooping<br />

cough, polio .^nd<br />

tetanus or if he has already<br />

had <strong>the</strong>se protective sliots,<br />

<strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> "booster" shots<br />

should be given.<br />

His diet is important and if<br />

he carries his lunch to school,<br />

it should consist of foods that<br />

approximate <strong>the</strong> midday meal<br />

he would get at home - containing<br />

one third of<strong>the</strong> day's<br />

nutrition.<br />

Make sure that your youngster<br />

starts out with a good<br />

grounding in tlie rules of <strong>the</strong><br />

sidewalk and road; running out<br />

into <strong>the</strong> road after a ball could<br />

take his life.<br />

He should know that <strong>the</strong><br />

policeman is his best friend<br />

when he is lo.st or in any kind<br />

of trouble, but strangers<br />

should never be talked to and<br />

rides in strange cars should<br />

not be accented.<br />

When he comes home from<br />

school, don't be too busy to<br />

hear his story of his day. It<br />

will make him feel important<br />
