<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 />

The Foreman familyofWells<br />

with a win over <strong>the</strong> Dalahay<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 />

Don Finnie of Vanderhoof is<br />

currently on a 23-game point<br />

18 goals and added 19 assists<br />

Tlie <strong>Quesnel</strong> Kangaroos ended<br />

its league schedule in<br />

third spot. Tlie 'Roos split <strong>the</strong><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 />

a marker from Max Helzel.<br />

Vanderhoof retained in <strong>the</strong><br />

last five minutes of <strong>the</strong> period<br />

to take a 2-1 lead after <strong>the</strong><br />

first frame.<br />

The Bears goal getters<br />

were Therrian and Striggler<br />

Bears pick up ano<strong>the</strong>r goal to<br />

set <strong>the</strong> pace for <strong>the</strong> win.<br />

Leroy Watt tipped in a shot<br />

from Campbell which proved to<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 />

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 />

temporary pollution solution is<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 />
