Hard, close checking <strong>and</strong>.<br />

older players off balance<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> high school basketballers fared half as well as<br />

<strong>the</strong>y could have <strong>and</strong> twice as well as <strong>the</strong>y might have as <strong>the</strong>y<br />

split a double header series with Prince George High School<br />

in Prince last Friday with <strong>the</strong> girls coming out on top 22-20<br />

while <strong>the</strong> boys dropped <strong>the</strong>ir game 39-26 before one of <strong>the</strong><br />

largest crowds ever to see a basketball game in <strong>the</strong> Cariboo.<br />

More than 800 fans turn- turn­ X cr^oli^Uy^^M. Berry,<br />

ed out for <strong>the</strong> high school<br />

tilts to cheer on <strong>the</strong>ir team<br />

<strong>and</strong> celebrate <strong>the</strong> official<br />

opening of <strong>the</strong> br<strong>and</strong> new<br />

high school gym which is reputed<br />

to be one of <strong>the</strong> most<br />

modern in design in <strong>the</strong> province.<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> was late in arriving<br />

<strong>and</strong> consequently <strong>the</strong>game<br />

was held up for an<br />

hour waiting for <strong>the</strong>m' to get<br />

on <strong>the</strong> scene <strong>and</strong> into <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

togs, but <strong>the</strong> fans held <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

.seats as <strong>the</strong> nor<strong>the</strong>rn cheerleaders<br />

<strong>and</strong> high school b<strong>and</strong><br />

l:ept <strong>the</strong>m v/ell amused thru<br />

<strong>the</strong> waiting period.<br />

When <strong>the</strong> team finally did<br />

get into action <strong>the</strong>y appeared<br />

to have mild cases of stage<br />

fright as it was <strong>the</strong> largest<br />

crowd that any of <strong>the</strong>m had<br />

ever played before <strong>and</strong> it<br />

showed in <strong>the</strong> opening stanzas<br />

of play.<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> girls led <strong>the</strong> way<br />

in <strong>the</strong> opener, but it was a<br />

case of who was more nervous<br />

as <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> first<br />

quarter shows only five points<br />

on <strong>the</strong> score board, 3 for<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> <strong>and</strong> 2 for Prince.<br />

The second quarter looked<br />

a little better, but only slightly,<br />

as Hea<strong>the</strong>r Inglis put on a<br />

four point spurt to set <strong>the</strong><br />

pace as <strong>Quesnel</strong> hit for 9<br />

points to Prince's singleton-<br />

Three-quarter time saw<br />

<strong>the</strong> score at 18-8 but <strong>the</strong> final<br />

frame saw Prince pull up<br />

its collective socks <strong>and</strong> start<br />

to roll. They scored 12 points<br />

behind Vi Adamski who hit<br />

for 6 <strong>and</strong> fell one basket<br />

short of knotting <strong>the</strong> score in<br />

<strong>the</strong> dying seconds for a final<br />

score of 22-20.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> boys encounter- it<br />

was <strong>the</strong> same idea only with<br />

<strong>the</strong> opposite team in <strong>the</strong> drivers<br />

seat as Prince started,<br />

strongly to end <strong>the</strong> first<br />

quarter 10 points out in front<br />

with a 12-2 score.<br />

<strong>Quesnel</strong> started to play<br />

ball after <strong>the</strong> break but still<br />

trailed at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> third<br />

'-'u.^rter although <strong>the</strong>y carried<br />

<strong>the</strong> bulk of <strong>the</strong> scoring<br />

for both <strong>the</strong> second <strong>and</strong> third<br />

quai'ters as <strong>the</strong> three-quarter<br />

time tally stood at 30-22.<br />

Prince caught up with<br />

<strong>the</strong>mselves <strong>and</strong> continued to<br />

control <strong>the</strong> backboards in <strong>the</strong><br />

final frame as <strong>the</strong>y showed<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir mastery of <strong>the</strong> situation<br />

scoring 9-4 points to salt <strong>the</strong><br />

game away with comparative<br />

ease.<br />

Short scores for <strong>the</strong> games<br />

stood:<br />

illcan<br />

create <strong>the</strong> illusion ot widening<br />

a room that appears too^<br />

narroWj or simply better proportioning<br />

any room.<br />

To shorten a room thai<br />

seems too long, one can use<br />

contrasting Ught <strong>and</strong> dark<br />

tiles, <strong>and</strong> by varying <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

patterns achieve <strong>the</strong> idea of<br />

narrowing an over - wide<br />

room. St<strong>and</strong>ard nine-inch<br />

square tiles, can be used.<br />

To separate two areas, two<br />

different colors of tile can be<br />

used. For example, dogwood,<br />

pink <strong>and</strong> charcoal with a<br />

touch of pink have proved<br />

particularly popular recently.<br />

THERE'S news-in plaster.<br />

You wouldn't expect it, because<br />

10 years ago <strong>the</strong> dry<br />

wall substitutes for this prosaic<br />

building material were<br />

supposed to be putting pla.ster<br />

out of business<br />

3ut in spite of <strong>the</strong> bragging<br />

by inventors <strong>and</strong> builders<br />

who were g'oing to save<br />

home buyers great sums by<br />

making walls out of everything<br />

^ from packed mud to<br />

masticated grocery boxes,<br />

plasterers just kept on trowelling.<br />

Today you can get accoustical<br />

plaster that soaks up<br />

sound like a sponge absorbs<br />

water. You can get predecorated<br />

pleister to give your walls<br />

a permanent tint that won't<br />

wash off or wear off — eliminates<br />

painting.<br />

You can use quick drying<br />

plaster to shortcut <strong>the</strong> usual<br />

waiting period for final decoration.<br />

Or you can still rely<br />

on <strong>the</strong> tried <strong>and</strong> tested<br />

three-coat plaster job that has<br />

distinguished quality construction<br />

for generations.<br />

Gypsum, <strong>the</strong> main ingredient<br />

of modem plaster, is<br />

now being mined <strong>and</strong> quarried<br />

at a rate of about 10,-<br />

000,000 tons per year.<br />

However, you'd wonder<br />

how <strong>the</strong>re could be enough<br />

left for plaster, from <strong>the</strong> waj/^<br />

this mineral is being used.<br />

Hollywood uses is to simulate<br />

snow. Farmers have been<br />

using it for fertilizer ever<br />

since Benjamin Franklin introduced<br />

it for that use. It<br />

goes into <strong>the</strong> making of face<br />

powder, dental plates, poker<br />

chips, bathroom fixtures <strong>and</strong><br />

polish for grave stones.<br />

To meet this market, 10<br />

jiew gypsum; plants are scheduled<br />

to be established this<br />

year, although <strong>the</strong> stuff is as<br />

old as <strong>the</strong> Egyptians <strong>and</strong> is<br />

only what we call plaster of<br />

Paris.<br />

Why do we keep on plas­<br />

tering walls?<br />

The Gypsum Association<br />

says it's because it helps to<br />

give lifetime protection to<br />

<strong>the</strong> value of your investmen..<br />

in a home. You can redecor­<br />

ate over <strong>and</strong> over again —<br />

as long as you can keep up<br />

with a woman's amazing ideas.<br />

Questions <strong>and</strong><br />

Answers<br />

Q — What is <strong>the</strong> best wa.\'<br />

to move paint from window<br />

glass?<br />

A. — Scrape with a razor<br />

blade. It is safer to use a special<br />

tool for <strong>the</strong> purpose available<br />

at hardware store.s.<br />

Q. — Shall we use tar or<br />

asphaltum to help waterproof<br />

<strong>the</strong> exterior of our<br />

foundation?<br />

A. — Asphaltum is generally<br />

better. Tar may chip<br />

after it hardens <strong>and</strong> ages.<br />

Q. — Is it wise to always<br />

buy <strong>the</strong> best quality of lumber?<br />

A. — No. The best procedure<br />

is to buy <strong>the</strong> lowest<br />

grade (least expensive)<br />

lumber which will do <strong>the</strong> job<br />

satisfactorily. For example,<br />

No 3. studs will serve <strong>the</strong><br />

purpose in a one-storey house<br />

just about as well as No. 1<br />

studs. Your dealer can advise<br />

you on lumber problems.<br />

Q. — How can we prevent<br />

stains on our newly painted<br />

exterior walls?<br />

A. — Stains on hght-colored<br />

exterior walls often como<br />

from corrosion of screening,<br />

gutters, flashes <strong>and</strong> hinges.<br />

Painting or varnishing <strong>the</strong><br />

metal parts this fall will eliminate<br />

stains.<br />

"I'LL CRY TO­<br />

stardom before she is twenty<br />

able to overcome her malady<br />

<strong>and</strong> start a new life.<br />

The portrayal of Lillian<br />

Roth ejves SUSAN HAY-<br />

WARD <strong>the</strong> best dramatic<br />

role of her career. The picture<br />

also gives her her first<br />

chance to sing, for she sings<br />

(Following is an account submitted<br />

by Garry Hills, local Sun<br />

carrier who returned on Monday<br />

from a 10-day trip to Disneyl<strong>and</strong><br />

sponsored by <strong>the</strong> Vancouver paper.<br />

— ed.)<br />

<strong>January</strong> 2nd rolled around <strong>and</strong><br />

although I had known since Dec.<br />

22 that I had waa <strong>the</strong> trip, sponsored<br />

by <strong>the</strong> Vancouver Sun, I<br />

still couldn't realize I. was really<br />

going.<br />

I started to get excited when<br />

<strong>the</strong> Observer photographer came<br />

to take pictures of me packing<br />

my suitcase for <strong>the</strong> trip.<br />

I went to bed <strong>and</strong> tried to<br />

l»ave a sleep, but couldn't. So<br />

I played canasta with my sister<br />

until bus time. My family <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Sun agent, Mr. Wilf Lowden.<br />

were at-<strong>the</strong> bus to see me off at<br />

midnight.<br />

I arrived in Vancouver at 2:30<br />

p.m. <strong>January</strong> 3 <strong>and</strong> was met by<br />

Mr. Jack Cowie of <strong>the</strong> Vancouver<br />

Sun, who took me to <strong>the</strong> Sun<br />

Building. I met several of <strong>the</strong><br />

staff <strong>and</strong> was shown around <strong>the</strong><br />

building, also <strong>the</strong> cafeteria where<br />

I met <strong>the</strong> girls <strong>and</strong> was told to<br />

Keep Fif (lass<br />

AHendance G o o d<br />

TOIRTY turned out Monday evemng<br />

for <strong>the</strong> first "Women's<br />

Keep Fit CTass" held at <strong>Quesnel</strong><br />

Elementary School.<br />

Although it was a little crowded<br />

due to <strong>the</strong> fact that -fro-ren<br />

pipes were being repairecl in <strong>the</strong><br />

gym <strong>and</strong> a classnwm was utilfeed,<br />

everyone enjoyed <strong>the</strong> entire<br />

evening.<br />

Next Monday <strong>the</strong> classes will<br />

be held in <strong>the</strong> gym <strong>and</strong> Mrs. W.<br />

lagljs, instructress, plans to divide<br />

attenders into several different<br />

groups for desired corrective<br />

work.<br />

It is expected that a number<br />

cd newcomers will also be present<br />

next week. Anyone interested<br />

in joining 'this enjoyable evaning<br />

exercise class should commence<br />

as soon as possible.<br />

make myself at home.<br />

I <strong>the</strong>n phoned my parents back<br />

in <strong>Quesnel</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sun got in<br />

touch with my uncle in Vancouer<br />

who I visited with for an hour<br />

or so. He took me back to my<br />

hotel room which I shared with<br />

ano<strong>the</strong>r carrier. We were <strong>the</strong><br />

only out-of-town boys to win <strong>the</strong><br />

trip. Early next morning we left<br />

for Disneyl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Los Angeles.<br />

We spent <strong>the</strong> first night on <strong>the</strong><br />

bus <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> next in a hotel. We<br />

arrived in Disneyl<strong>and</strong> on Sunday.<br />

Due to our long trip we slept in<br />

<strong>the</strong> first morning. Then we went<br />

to see <strong>the</strong> "Tennessee Ernie"<br />

show <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>n out to Knott's<br />

Berry Farm. I really can't de-<br />

.scribe this place o<strong>the</strong>r than to<br />

say it was just wonderful. The<br />

next day we went to Disneyl<strong>and</strong>,<br />

<strong>and</strong> that was something you<br />

dream about. Just wonderful. We<br />

iipent a very bu.sy day, went on<br />

all <strong>the</strong> rides, really had a swell<br />

time.<br />

Tuesday we went to <strong>the</strong> studios<br />

where <strong>the</strong> Walt Disney pictures<br />

are made. This was very intere,

sadness in this capital,<br />

where for so long he was<br />

so widely known. There will<br />

a gap next session in <strong>the</strong><br />

House that no-one can fill,<br />

alone, <strong>and</strong> would imitate<br />

CCF. in Bumaby in 1933 —<br />

<strong>and</strong> was victor again in 1937,<br />

1956. He never knew defeat<br />

at <strong>the</strong> polls.<br />

Ernest Winch sat side by<br />

side in <strong>the</strong> House with hi.S'<br />

Fo never compromised<br />

with his principles. From<br />

time to time he disagreed<br />

with his party, <strong>and</strong> he said<br />

so out loud, for political e.xpediency<br />

was as a horror to<br />

him. He was a plain <strong>and</strong> Simple<br />

man, of fine intellectf <strong>and</strong><br />
