Page 18 GULF ISLANDS DRIFTWOOD Wednesday, February 16, 1983 Export 'A' competitors named S t r i k e r s d o w n e d 3 - 1 BY KEN COLLINS Here are the people who made it on to the teams that will compete shortly in the Export "A"- sponsored competition. For the ladies" team they are Carol Kaye, Sheila Lucas, Val Hughes, Brenda Helfrichand Trudy Sloan, and for the men's team, Frank Keoppel, Doug Hack, Albert Kaye, Ron Robertson and Ed Allan. Here are the better scores of the past week. Albert Kaye: 727-744 (313-331); Carol Kaye: 796-773 (307); Terry Jenkins: 723-753 (317-319); Jan Arsenault: 774; Dan Bedford: 742; and this writer with 788. The bowlers of the week were Carol Kaye and this writer. Spot bowling is the only way to go and living proof is Ed Harker, who sports a 150 average in the men's league. Two weeks ago Terry got him to try spot bowling instead of his usual pin bowling. Last week it paid off as he came up with a 618 triple, 168 pins over his average. Felt sorry for my daughter Julie last Friday night. She had six headpins in one game as she came up with a 137 game. It never fails. As soon as anyone asks me to watch him bowl, because he is not doing too good of late, he always gets a strike. How can you fault anyone who does that Y.B.C. NEWS The Bantam division held their- Four Steps to Stardom Zone Roll- Offs Sunday in Esquimau. Our representatives were Laura Little and Mark David. A big thank you from all of us to these two bowlers for placing well in the standings.. This weekend the junior and senior representatives get their chances to place as well in the individual divisions. Good luck to you all. High scorers for the past two Saturdays were: Jets (February 5): Eric Taylor 119, Simon Baines 106, Bonnie Trottier 84, Meghan French 82, Jennifer Neilson 81, Heath Cooper 74, Alicia Gopp64, Nathan Helfrich 56. February 12: Eric Taylor 103, Simon Baines and Nathan Helfrich Perseverance pays off for Salt Spring Sockeyes BY MALCOLM LEGG Perseverance pays off in the long run. The Salt Spring Sockeyes have had a dismal season in league play and after last weekend's opening defeat in Cup play the prospects looked bleak indeed. But not for this group of neversay-die women, who put on a sparkling display of soccer to defeat the Stingers 2-1. Even so, the outcome was never a certainty, especially in the second half when the Stingers poured on the pressure. The Sockeyes started with only nine players and appeared to be in for a tough match even though the Stingers had only 10 players. Minutes after the opening whistle Trish Graham arrived, giving the Sockeyes their 10th player and the team sprang to life. Deneen Grant pushed a quick pass to Trish who split the Stingers' defence and banged home their first goal. Moments later, Vicki Byron arrived and the team had their full complement of players and they responded by pouring on the pressure in the Stingers' end. Trish, Vicki and Debby Bell all had glorious chances to score but the Stingers held on valiantly. The Sockeyes' pressure eventually paid off as Jackie Byron dribbled through three defenders and put Debbie Bell in the clear with a perfect pass. Debbie made no mistake and the Sockeyes were up by two at the half. The Stingers' missing players finally arrived at the half giving them a full squad. With their fresh legs they poured on the pressure in the second half. The Sockeyes' back wall of Suzanne Terrick, Sue Byron and Marianne Allan, coupled with goalie Denise de la Franiere, were equal to the challenge. Mid-way through the half the Stingers slipped through the Sockeyes' defence for a goal but it was the only goal Denise was to let in, as she played brilliantly throughout the match. The Stingers pushed forward for the equalizer but the Sockeyes' midfield of Becky Legg, Deneen Grant and Maria Betts took control and contained the opposition in their own half for most of the remainder of the game. Next week they hope to make it two in a row with a home game on Sunday at 11:30 am. 86, Alicia Gopp 81, Heath Cooper 69.

Oldroyd barristers & solicitors & notaries public GENERAL LEGAL PRACTICE BY STRICK AUST On Sunday the Salt Spring Strikers lost an important match to Prospect Lake in their quest for the "B" District Cup. Although the Cup is not out of their reach yet, the road to the playoffs is now quite a bit more difficult as they will have to win three games in a row, away from home, to participate in the final match. The Strikers were short some players but the team was determined to fill in the voids and pull off a victory against their strong"B"side. Besides the desire for the District Cup, the boys had another reason for wanting this victory. Last year the same Prospect Lake team had knocked the Strikers out of District Cup play and down to the "C" level of competition. The Strikers started strongly, putting immediate pressure on the Prospect Lake defence but time after time they either outran the Striker forwards or muscled them off the ball. Finally, after 15 minutes of determined effort, the Strikers were able to break through the defensive wall, and put the ball in the back of W W * •¥ W the net. As with many of the team's goals, it was a combined effort between Mike Cue and Jeff Moger. Prospect Lake rallied after the scoring of this goal and scored one of their own, a well earned goal that seemed to boost their spirits and spur them on to greater effort. Ten minutes later they scored again, this time on a breakaway. Now the Strikers renewed their effort, and with only minutes to go in the first half, almost tied it up as Lric Donnelly executed a perfect left-footed kick that beat the keeper, but missed the net by inches. The second half was back and forth action, as both teams were able to move the ball through the mid-field of the other, but seemed unable to penetrate each other's defence. Finally, with five minutes to go, the Strikers literally pulled their goalie and pushed everyone up in an effort to even the score and put the game into overtime. With only the keeper and one defender back, the Striker net was virtually unprotected. With only minutes to go. Prospect Lake .broke out of their own end and put the lid on the game with their third goal. » w w w w S y t v i a 9 s S c i z z o r s Facials Facial Cosmetics Make-Up Ear Piercing French Braids Manicures Perms Cuts, Tints, Sets & BlowDrys Hair Removal Phone Sylvia, Brenda, Debby, Lois or Shelley at 537-9521.

Wednesday, February 16, 1983 GULF ISLANDS DRIFTWOOD Page 19 KICK-OFF Coers Cup play is delayed by poor weekend weather BY MALCOLM LEGG Soccer news came on two fronts last week amid a weekend of terrible weather that limited action at Portlock Park. Our off-field news is that the Royal Canadian Legion Branch at Salt Spring becomes a supporter of our club once again. Over past seasons the service clubs of Salt Spring Island have been a mainstay of support for the many programs our club offers. S e l e c t s a d v a n c e semi-finals to BY MALCOLM LEGG Once again the Salt Spring Selects put on a thrilling cup game as they out-lasted Duncan 1-0 to advance to the semi-finals ol the District Cup. The two teams battled through 60 minutes of scoreless regulation time, forcing a 20-minute overtime session. Duncan, with the wind at then back, pressed hard in the first half of the overtime but the Selects' defence held tight. Mid-way through the second hall of overtime the Selects struck for the big goal. It started from a cornerkick with Rob Wanless passing the ball to Ben Berry. Ben dropped the ball to Chad Little who first-timed a cross into the middle. The cross was deflected into the air but carried to Darccy Kirkpatrick who smartly volleyed a high shot in for the winner. Duncan pressed hard for the equalizer in the dying minutes but Salt Spring was the match for every Duncan thrust. No damage Volunteer firefighters were called out last Thursday to deal with a chimney fire in a home on Lower Ganges Road on Salt Spring Island. The fire caused no damage to the home of Betty Calkins. The call was made at 5:45 pm. PHONE M.E.

Their support enabled us to put on the Whitecaps clinic, referees'clinic and coaches' clinics as well as run our on-the-lield program. During the last couple ol seasons their support has dried up as they turned their financial assistance towards other goals. The return of the Legion to our family comes when we need it most. With spiraling costs and a booming enrolment of 250 players, finding the necessary funding becomes more difficult each soccer season. On the soccer field there was only limited play in Cup action but all our teams are still involved, at least for another weekend. The poor weather cancelled Coers Cup play for the intra-island and peewee soccer also, but both will resume next weekend. In Division 6C cup play the Selects won again with an exciting 1-0 win over Duncan in overtime. This weekend they play their semifinal match at 11:30 at Portlock Park. The Sting in 5C cup play won easily as their opponents failed to field a team. Their next match is Saturday at 1 pm at home. 1 he Sockeyes, in women's play, defeated the Stingers 2-1 and also play at home at 11:30 am Sunday at Portlock. The Strikers in 3B cup play dropped a tough 3-1 decision to Prospect Lake and play in Victoria this weekend. The Wranglers play their semifinal match in Saanich this weekend. With a win they move into the 4C cup final. The Kicks play their first games this weekend in the IA cup. Saturday at 10 am at Portlock against Bays United is the first with their second at 10 am Sunday. For 3,000,000 Canadians Heart Disease isn't just somebody else's problem. Make no mistake about it. Heart and Blood Vessel diseases are Canada's number one health problem, killing almost as many Canadians every year as all other causes put together. At any one time, almost 3,000,000 people will be affected by diseases the Canadian Heart Foundation is concerned about. They include: Hypertension (high blood pressure). Heart Attack and Stroke, Rheumatic Heart Disease, Congenital Heart Disease plus a number of others that are less well known. At present it is estimated Heart and Blood Vessel diseases are costing the Canadian economy over two billion dollars a year in medical expenses, lost wages and lost production. That makes it a problem that affects us'all. Look at all we've done. We can all be proud of the progress the Canadian Heart Fund has made over the last 25 years. Today the death rate is down dramatically. Over 27°/o compared to 1965. Literally thousands of Canadians are alive today because of your donations in the past. The reason for this reduction is based almost solely on research and education. Canadian researchers developed the first pacemaker, artery transplants, human heart valve replacement, surgical correction for "blue babies" and techniques used around the world when major heart surgery is necessary. Our education programme helps spread information about new breakthroughs to doctors, nurses and other health care professionals through seminars held in hospitals across Canada. Training for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (Emergency Heart Massage) is also carried on in many centres. Of all the donations received by the Heart Fund, 88% goes directly into research and education. So youe money makes a difference where it really counts.

Please, give from the heart. Use the envelope inserted in this issue of bull Islands Unftwood. Because research into a number of heart diseases has been so successful, future work is being concentrated on the two main killers left to be conquered: Arteriosclerosis and Hypertension. Commonly referred to as hardening of the arteries, Arteriosclerosis is a condition where deposits build up on blood vessel walls. When a blood vessel is closed off by these deposits the surrounding tissue dies. A Heart Attack or one type of Stroke could be the result. You know Hypertension as high blood pressure. Over 2,000,000 Canadians have this condition. It is one of the leading causes of stroke, congestive heart failure and is a major risk factor in Coronary Artery Disease. Many medical researchers feel that successfully finding a cure to Arteriosclerosis and Hypertension will virtually eliminate both Stroke and Heart Attack. The two major causes of death in Canada. So think of the breakthroughs still to come. Help us buy more time in the research labs. It's the only place heart disease will finally be stopped. Give as if your Heart depended on it. Last year 80,000 Canadians died of Cardiovascular Disease. More people than from all other diseases combined. So even with the progress made to date, Heart diseases can still affect you or your family without warning. And it's not just the elderly. In men half the deaths from heart attack happen between the ages of 35 and 64. And the median age of stroke victims is only 50. Right in what many people consider the prime of life. There are still a lot of unanswered questions. Still too many people we can't help. We're doing all we can. Now it's all up to you. Help us make heart disease a part of the past. B.C.
