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 />

Film Library For<br />
<strong>Quesnel</strong> Discussed<br />
Visiting <strong>Quesnel</strong> last week<br />

Film Board of Canada who<br />
is urging <strong>the</strong> local library<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 />
<strong>the</strong> public to make greater<br />
use of <strong>the</strong>m. Projection Equipment<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 />

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 />

with a total of 24 1/4 points.<br />
The only trophy of <strong>the</strong> day<br />
to go to a <strong>Quesnel</strong> boat was<br />
won by Albert Mulder and his<br />
crew, Tony Green. This honor,<br />
to say <strong>the</strong> least, was a dubious<br />
one. The racing committee<br />
awarded this hapless duo <strong>the</strong><br />
Hard Luck Trophy, emblematic<br />
of exactly what Its name<br />
Implies.<br />
The <strong>Quesnel</strong> boats in <strong>the</strong><br />
competition finished In <strong>the</strong><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 />
