<strong>Harris</strong> <strong>Cops</strong> <strong>Dragon</strong> <strong>Spiel</strong><br />
The Al <strong>Harris</strong> rink of <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />
captured <strong>the</strong> third annual<br />
<strong>Dragon</strong> Lake Open Bonspiel at<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Dragon</strong> Lake Curling Arena<br />
last Sunday evening. The <strong>Harris</strong><br />
rink carne through with a 12- 11<br />
win over Phil Stolarski in an<br />
extra end of play.<br />
The ''B' -<br />
event went to <strong>the</strong><br />
Alex Dodge rink of <strong>Quesnel</strong> in<br />
a good battle over Bob Hennewav.<br />

PUPPERS LOSE<br />
TO LAKETOWN<br />
<strong>Quesnel</strong> and Williams Lake<br />
has started what could be ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
of <strong>the</strong> many minor hockey<br />
rivals. Last Sunday at <strong>the</strong> Civic<br />
Arena <strong>the</strong> two towns held a<br />
game between <strong>the</strong> Pup division.<br />
The two all-star teams were<br />
made up of pup players from <strong>the</strong><br />
pup league house teams. The<br />
teams were evenly matched with<br />
Williams Lake coming out on<br />
top by a 4-3 score.<br />
Although <strong>the</strong> Williams Lake<br />
team won, <strong>the</strong> locals put up a<br />
good fight in controlling most of<br />
<strong>the</strong> game. The winning goal was<br />
just one of those things that happens<br />
and <strong>Quesnel</strong> just couldn't<br />
get <strong>the</strong> extra marker back.<br />
(i<br />
The team played a real good<br />
game considering how long <strong>the</strong><br />
team has been toge<strong>the</strong>r and how<br />
old <strong>the</strong>y are." said coach Oscar<br />
Festerling.<br />
The idea of <strong>the</strong> out-of-town<br />
competition is to give <strong>the</strong>se<br />
young pucksters more ice time,<br />
The more ice time <strong>the</strong> players<br />
get, <strong>the</strong> better hockey players<br />
<strong>the</strong>y are going to be in later<br />
years.<br />
The <strong>Quesnel</strong> marksmen were<br />
Gary Benoi and Lyle Inglis.<br />
Inglis picked up two goals to<br />
lead <strong>the</strong> locals.<br />
rink skipped by Glen Baker.<br />
The Foreman rink was made up<br />
of Ma, Pa, and <strong>the</strong> two little<br />
Foreman's.<br />
The annual event seems to be<br />
getting bigger every year as an<br />
increase of four rinks was in<br />
attendance with 18 crews making<br />
<strong>the</strong> draw complete. The spiel<br />
next season will be hoping for<br />
<strong>the</strong> maximum of 20 rinks.<br />
The "A"'event proved to <strong>the</strong><br />
thriller of <strong>the</strong> spiel with <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Harris</strong> and Stolarski rinks going<br />
into an extra end to decide <strong>the</strong><br />
winner. The battle between <strong>the</strong><br />
two teams lasted through out <strong>the</strong><br />
match with <strong>the</strong> each rink taking<br />
<strong>the</strong> lead by one point. '<br />
In <strong>the</strong> deciding end <strong>Harris</strong><br />
, curled a rock into <strong>the</strong> house<br />
and <strong>the</strong>n proceeded to set up<br />
guards. Stolarski tried, in vain<br />
to take <strong>the</strong> <strong>Harris</strong> counter out of<br />
<strong>the</strong> house but failed, giving up<br />
<strong>the</strong> game 12-11.<br />
Curling with Al <strong>Harris</strong> was<br />
son Phil, Lloyd Phoenix and<br />
Tony Magnuson.<br />
The runner-ups of <strong>the</strong> event<br />
were Stolarski second, Bob<br />
Mitchell thikd and Jerry Ingram<br />
fourth.<br />
Alex Dodge and three topped<br />
<strong>the</strong> --B''event with a win over<br />
Bob Henneway for <strong>the</strong> hardware.<br />
The Dodge rink was made up of<br />
Dewey Lund, Bob Hall and Archie<br />
Johnson.<br />
Finishing in <strong>the</strong> third and<br />
fourth spot of <strong>the</strong> -<br />
'B'' event<br />
were Barry Holtzman and Ollie<br />
Pavio.<br />
Jim Foreman and family ventured<br />
down to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Dragon</strong> Lake<br />
arena and came up with a win<br />
in <strong>the</strong> '-C'' event. The Foreman<br />
foursome staged a win over<br />
Glen Baker to cart away <strong>the</strong><br />
awards.<br />
Curling with Jim were wife<br />
Lil and children King and Gay.<br />
The Dalahay rink skipped by<br />
Glen Baker took <strong>the</strong> second slot<br />
with <strong>the</strong> Banana Belt entery<br />
coming third and Svend Pederson<br />
taking <strong>the</strong> fourth position.<br />
"It was a good spiel,'' said<br />
Bob Mitchell, president of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Dragon</strong> Lake Curling Arena,"<br />
I think every one had a good<br />
time."<br />
Midgets<br />
Upset 6-3<br />
The <strong>Quesnel</strong> Midget All-Stars<br />
went downed to <strong>the</strong> hands of<br />
Prince George Midgets by a<br />
count of 6-3. The locals lost <strong>the</strong><br />
game in <strong>the</strong> last two minutes of<br />
<strong>the</strong> match that sported <strong>the</strong> usual<br />
rough and tumble midget style of<br />
hockey.<br />
The Pulptowners netted three<br />
goals, in <strong>the</strong> last two'minutes of<br />
<strong>the</strong> game when Bob Gassoff was<br />
ushered off to <strong>the</strong> cooler for <strong>the</strong><br />
remainder of <strong>the</strong> game with a<br />
hooking infraction.<br />
Rod ' Browning playing between<br />
<strong>the</strong> local pipes just<br />
couldn't cope with <strong>the</strong> some<br />
10 shots <strong>the</strong> PG pucksters peppered<br />
him with in <strong>the</strong> dieing<br />
minutes of <strong>the</strong> match.<br />
Mushins, Rota and Dorish<br />
each tallied in <strong>the</strong> last moments<br />
to put <strong>the</strong> locals down 6-3.<br />
The game was a 1'eal crowd<br />
pleaser with both teams being<br />
fired up. <strong>Quesnel</strong> was asseted<br />
with 10 of <strong>the</strong> 19 penalties handed<br />
out by referee Tom Moffat.<br />
The first period saw each<br />
team netting one marker with<br />
Wayne Hamilton denting <strong>the</strong><br />
mesh for <strong>Quesnel</strong> and Randy<br />
Rota drawing first blood for<br />
Prince.<br />
Hak and Rota each potted singles<br />
in <strong>the</strong> second frame with<br />
<strong>the</strong> locals falling behind by one<br />
with a marker from Warren<br />

losing to <strong>the</strong> Vanderhoof Bears<br />
4-2 and rebounding back with<br />
a '6-5 nipper over <strong>the</strong> Mohawks<br />
of Prince George.<br />
The Saturday evening contest<br />
was one that is hard to explain.<br />
Some how <strong>the</strong> Bears out<br />
scored <strong>the</strong> locals with having<br />
eight penalties to <strong>the</strong> 'Roos<br />
two.<br />
<strong>Quesnel</strong> opened <strong>the</strong> game<br />
early in <strong>the</strong> first period with<br />

Watch that Ladder!<br />
If you're not an outdoor buff,<br />
do something more than sit and<br />
stare at those same lifeless<br />
four walls. Get in <strong>the</strong> swing of<br />
things and paint. Almost any<br />
room can be quickly and easily<br />
changed to a brighter, livelier<br />
place with an investment of<br />
only 15 dollars.<br />
But don't jump in without<br />
first making <strong>the</strong> necessary<br />
preparations. Fill all cracks<br />
in plaster walls with spackling<br />
material, using a putty knife,<br />
a kitchen knife or a versatile<br />
finger and thumb. When <strong>the</strong><br />
patching is completely dry,<br />
sand <strong>the</strong> surface smooth and<br />
dust your walls thoroughly.<br />
To make your paint ing easier<br />
remove all hardware and light<br />
fixtures from <strong>the</strong> room or cover<br />
with masking tape. Kitchen<br />
and bathroom walls should be<br />
washed with household cleansers<br />
to remove caked on dirt<br />
and grease. Cover all floors<br />
and furniture with drop cloths<br />
For ASI Your<br />
And<br />
SHEET METAL<br />
before painting — a few splatters<br />
are inevitable. Now you<br />
are ready to apply <strong>the</strong> undercoating<br />
or primer.<br />
If you use a raised platform,<br />
be sure it's rigged from<br />
two strong ladders and a wide<br />
plank. O<strong>the</strong>rwise you may enjoy<br />
your new room from <strong>the</strong><br />
confines of a recovery bed. Allow<br />
<strong>the</strong> plank to extend at least<br />
a foot beyond <strong>the</strong> step of <strong>the</strong><br />
ladder on which it rests. For<br />
safety, make sure <strong>the</strong> ladders<br />
are fully opened and locked in<br />
position.<br />

YOUR CARIBOO GARDEN<br />
by PETER JOSEPHY<br />
As a short column like this<br />
one cannot be too comprehensive,<br />
I shall confine myself to<br />
<strong>the</strong> description of a few of <strong>the</strong><br />
most desirable shrubs, suitable<br />
for this climate. In addition, I<br />
would like to review an outstanding<br />
new book, recently<br />
publicshed by <strong>the</strong> Canada Department<br />
of Agriculture.<br />
Shrubs are used in different<br />
ways, i.e. hedges, foundation<br />
planting, shrub border and as<br />
specimen shrubs. Literally<br />
hundreds of different shrubs<br />
can be found on Cariboo properties.<br />
Surprisingly enough,<br />
quite a few non hardy species<br />
have survived for years in more<br />
or less sheltered locations.<br />
DWARF<br />
My favourite group of shrubs<br />
are <strong>the</strong> Potentillas or Cinque -<br />
foil. With <strong>the</strong> exception of somewhite<br />
varieties, <strong>the</strong>se are dwarf<br />
shrubs. The small flowers are<br />
continually blooming from June<br />
till freeze-up. Most varieties<br />
are quite compact. Since <strong>the</strong>y<br />
stand trimming well, <strong>the</strong>y are<br />
excellent for small flowering<br />
hedges, but can be used for<br />
just about any purpose.<br />
Some of <strong>the</strong> more popular<br />
varieties are Potentilla Snowflake,<br />
white, which will grow<br />
4-5 feet tall. Potentilla Farreri,'with<br />
bright yellow flowers,<br />
grows to about 3 feet. „<br />
A fairly recent introduction is<br />
Potentilla Tangerine. This one<br />
has orange flowers, somewhat<br />
larger than <strong>the</strong> former varieties<br />
while <strong>the</strong> shrub only grows 18"<br />
tall. Potentilla Arbuscula is a<br />
prostate shrub with lemon yellow<br />
flowers. This one is excellent<br />
for rockeries. Allpotentillas<br />
will tolerate drought conditions,<br />
but I find <strong>the</strong>y do better<br />
in ra<strong>the</strong>r heavy, moist soil.<br />
DOGWOOD<br />
Silverleaf Dogwood or variegated<br />
dogwood, is ano<strong>the</strong>r one<br />
of my favourites. It is one of<br />
<strong>the</strong> most effective shrubs, will<br />
grow just about anywhere, and is<br />
attractive throughout <strong>the</strong> season<br />
with its strikingly colored<br />
leaves. Since <strong>the</strong>y do well in<br />
shade, <strong>the</strong>y are often planted<br />
at <strong>the</strong> entrance of <strong>the</strong> court<br />
house here, where <strong>the</strong>y have<br />
no sun.<br />
Tamarix, a very interesting<br />
group of shrubs, quite prominent<br />
in <strong>the</strong> Okanagan valley, has<br />
not wintered tod well here with<br />
us. However, <strong>the</strong> variety Tamarix<br />
pentandra rubra has put on<br />
quite a show here in <strong>the</strong> Fall<br />
and late Summer, after rapidly<br />
recovering from some winter<br />
kill. Tamarix pentandra does<br />
best when pruned back severely<br />
in Spring. Since this shrub<br />
is of such beauty with its fea<strong>the</strong>ry<br />
leaves and masses of tiny<br />
dark carmine flowers, midsummer<br />
till freeze-up, I do not<br />
LUCKY<br />
hesitate recommending it to<br />
homeowners for trial.<br />
DIFFERENT<br />
Ano<strong>the</strong>r outstanding specimen<br />
shrub is <strong>the</strong> FernleafCaragana.<br />
This one is quite different<br />
from <strong>the</strong> common caragana<br />
and especially attractive^,<br />
early Spring, with its fine fea<strong>the</strong>ry<br />
leaves and an abundance of<br />
yellow' flowers. , A semiweeping<br />
shrub, reaching a<br />
height of 8-10 feet at maturity.<br />
Several species of shrubs,<br />
native here, are propagated by<br />
nurseries, notably Oregon<br />
Grape and Bearberry or Kinickinick;<br />
both broadleaf evergreens.<br />
While it is possible to<br />
transplant Oregon grape from<br />
<strong>the</strong> wild, Bearberry is almost<br />
impossible to transplant. Bearberry<br />
is ideal as a groundcover<br />
on slopes of very poor<br />
soil and good for rockeries.<br />
This plant is quite prominent<br />
along <strong>the</strong> highway South of <strong>Quesnel</strong>.<br />
GOOD BOOK<br />

through her introduction<br />
of many new hybrids of<br />
ornamentals. This 187 page<br />
hard bound book, with a full<br />

you have. For example, by using<br />
this equity at Seaboard Finance most<br />
homeowners can obtain a lower<br />
interest rate than is' possible on a<br />
personal loan. And at Seaboard you<br />
can borrow up to 80% of <strong>the</strong> value<br />
of your property, or in some cases<br />
even more. See us for cash today.<br />

DOES WATER'S TASTE LEAVE YOU HIGH AND DRY?<br />
of<br />
Commerce estimates, America<br />
will be tapping her fresh water<br />
reserves to <strong>the</strong> tune of more<br />
than 400 billion gallons per<br />
day. That's ten times <strong>the</strong> usage<br />
at <strong>the</strong> turn of <strong>the</strong> century and,<br />
with demand increasing,rapidly,<br />
experts agree that we'll<br />
soon have to turn to processed<br />
sea water to keep from going<br />
thirsty. •<br />
Already many communities<br />
are noticing a marked difference<br />
in <strong>the</strong> taste of drinking<br />
water, coffee, tea, , soup and<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r water-based foods. This<br />
is a result of a serious water<br />
pollution problem compounded<br />
by <strong>the</strong> necessity for tapping<br />
secondary sources which don't<br />
measure up to previous standards<br />
with regard to taste, odor<br />
and coloring. Extensive chemical<br />
treatment makes <strong>the</strong> water<br />
safe, if no more pleasing to <strong>the</strong><br />
palate, nose and eye.<br />
In New York, City, for example,<br />
<strong>the</strong> waters of <strong>the</strong> muddy<br />
Hudson River were recently<br />
tied into <strong>the</strong> municipal system<br />
despite <strong>the</strong> fact that 1<br />
it has<br />
been said: "If you fall into <strong>the</strong><br />
Hudson you don't drown — you<br />
decay."/<br />
Perhaps <strong>the</strong> only consolation<br />
to be found is, things have<br />
been worse. History reports<br />
that a traveler passing through<br />
New York City in 1748 wrote<br />
friends that <strong>the</strong> water was so<br />
bad "even <strong>the</strong> horses balked at<br />
drinking it."<br />
The taste of water-has produced<br />
a variety of responses on<br />
<strong>the</strong> part of <strong>the</strong> American public.<br />
For one, sales of bottled<br />
water have shot up steadily<br />
over <strong>the</strong> past several years,<br />
with <strong>the</strong> industry now selling<br />
about $65 million worth of<br />
water per annum.<br />
Perhaps a more practical<br />
temporary pollution solution is<br />
<strong>the</strong> home water filter. While<br />

SCIENCE AND GOOD SENSE<br />
LIGHTEN IRONING CHORES<br />
mm®<br />
Today's iron is a model of<br />
product engineering designed<br />
to operate easily and with little<br />
effort. And technological<br />
improvements in <strong>the</strong> weaving<br />
and finishing of fabrics have<br />
made clothing easier to care<br />
for. Even so, as inevitable as<br />
<strong>the</strong> sun coming up is <strong>the</strong> load<br />
of family wash that needs doing<br />
each week. For <strong>the</strong> homemaker<br />
who wants to make <strong>the</strong><br />
job as easy as possible. General<br />
Electric Housewares Division<br />
home economists offer a<br />
few tips.<br />
Make certain <strong>the</strong>re is plenty<br />
of light in <strong>the</strong> ironing room<br />
and use a well padded board —<br />
<strong>the</strong> wider, <strong>the</strong> better. Iron in<br />
long, straight strokes and always<br />
with <strong>the</strong> grain of <strong>the</strong> fabric.<br />
A steam iron is very effective<br />
for pre-dampening cottons,<br />
linens and starched clothing.<br />
The thirty nine steam vents in<br />
<strong>the</strong> soleplate of new models<br />
provide complete and even<br />
steam coverage. And, double<br />
non-stick ironing surface helps<br />
prevent starch and lint'buildup<br />
on <strong>the</strong> soleplate.<br />
TRIXIE THE TRADER<br />
Linen, rayon, nylon, triacetate<br />
and some permanent press<br />
fabrics are best ironed with a<br />
steam iron. Even wash and<br />
wear cottons often need a touch<br />
up with <strong>the</strong> steam iron to look<br />
bandbox fresh. Many different<br />
ironing and pressing techniques<br />
necessitated by <strong>the</strong><br />
varying fabric textures and fiber<br />
contents are easily handled<br />
with <strong>the</strong> modern steam,<br />
and dry iron with permanent<br />
press touch up setting.<br />
The dry iron is effective for<br />
. touch-ups, pressing and ironing<br />
of polyesters, acrylics.acetates,<br />
silk, suede lea<strong>the</strong>r, metal<br />
lies, and most permanent<br />
press fabrics. A fabric ironing<br />
guide on <strong>the</strong> saddle plate of<br />
<strong>the</strong> iron gives ironing instructions<br />
and proper fabric dial<br />
settings.<br />
Genera! Electric home economists<br />
recommend steam irons<br />
be emptied of water while still<br />
hot on completion of ironing.<br />
Irons should not be stored in<br />
<strong>the</strong> carton but standing up with<br />
<strong>the</strong> cord loosely wrapped<br />
around it.<br />
In addition to using tap water for ice and beverages, we use<br />
30 to 60 gallons when taking a shower, and about 51 gallons<br />
doing a load of laundry in a washing machine.<br />
mates that as much as $29 billion<br />
will be needed over <strong>the</strong><br />
next 5 years to clean up <strong>the</strong><br />
nation's rivers, lakes and<br />
streams, <strong>the</strong>se devices provide<br />
<strong>the</strong> individual with a means of<br />
purifying <strong>the</strong> water when it<br />
reaches his home for less than<br />
$29.<br />
Units, like <strong>the</strong> Eaton Water<br />
Filter, attach directly to <strong>the</strong><br />
kitchen tap without difficulty<br />
and screen out objectionable<br />
taste, odor and discoloration.<br />
The water that passes through<br />
is as fresh as any from a brisk<br />
mountain stream.<br />
At <strong>the</strong> heart of such equipment<br />
is an activated charcoal<br />
filter, best known for its effective<br />
cigarette smoke filtration<br />
in leading brands such as<br />
Tareyton. Interestingly, activated<br />
charcoal is also used by<br />
thousands of American communities<br />
to protect <strong>the</strong>ir water<br />
supplies as well as in <strong>the</strong><br />
preparation of rriost soft drinks,<br />
beer, wine and alcoholic beverages.<br />
While activated charcoal's<br />
ability to absorb impurities in<br />
water has been known for<br />
nearly half a century, its full<br />
potential in this area was not<br />
really recognized until <strong>the</strong> late<br />
stages of World War II. At<br />
that time rumors were spreading<br />
that <strong>the</strong> retreating German<br />
armies planned to use botulism<br />
and o<strong>the</strong>r deadly germs to poi<br />
son <strong>the</strong> water supplies of European<br />
cities <strong>the</strong>y abandoned to<br />
<strong>the</strong> advancing American troops.<br />
A chemist named John Hassler<br />
was assigned to find a way to<br />
safeguard <strong>the</strong> GI's.<br />
Hassler contended that activated<br />
charcoal was <strong>the</strong> answer.<br />
He proved it in a highly dra-<br />
•matic way.<br />
Taking a heaping helping of<br />
thoroughly infected garbage<br />
which had been allowed to sit<br />
for several days, he whipped up<br />
<strong>the</strong> foulest "soup" ever prepared<br />
in an Army kitchen.<br />
Then he ran <strong>the</strong> "broth"<br />
through a series" of activated<br />
charcoal filters and calmly<br />
drank it while an array of officers<br />
looked on in amazement.<br />
When Hassler suffered no ill<br />
effects, <strong>the</strong> Army commissioned'<br />
<strong>the</strong> construction of a convoy of<br />
special water tank trucks<br />
equipped with activated charcoal<br />
filters for front line use.<br />
How much is a drink of fresh<br />
water worth? It's all in your<br />
point of view. The Army paid<br />
<strong>the</strong> price of <strong>the</strong> trucks. A rich<br />
merchant crossing <strong>the</strong> Sahara<br />
Desert is reported to have<br />
given a poor camel driver a<br />
record $20,000 for a cold gourd<br />
of water.<br />
Think about that <strong>the</strong> next<br />
time you use 60 gallons of<br />
water during a long, leisurely<br />
shower.<br />
