Reds

mmume TUESDAY WILL TELL

could

be finished

Terrace Reds currently
battling for top spot in the
Bulkley Valley Baseball
League could fold Tuesday.

Aspokesman for the team
said Sunday the players
decided amongst
themselves Thursday night
they would give it one more
try before calling it quits.

. The Reds were slated to
lay the other Terrace
foam, the Colts at Kerr-
Rotary Park Thursday, but
the game was cancelled

~when the team could muster

only eight players.
Last week, following a

‘dismal showing in the

Moricetown tournament,

Reds owner-manager

L'Estrange announced he

was selling: the club and

terminating a 20-year

involvement with ‘minor
rts-in Terrace.

LEstrange cited the
indifference of the players '
and Terrace residents at
wi as his reason for

Thursday’s game with the
Colts would have been the
first scheduled game for the
Reds since the owner
decided to unload the team.

The team’s spokeman -
said if the players show for
the Tuesday game, the Reds
have a “good chance” of
staying alive for the
duzation of this season.

He added he has “every
confidence” that the players
would show up. sti

With a 10-4 record, the
Reds are tied with Smithers
Glaciers for first place in

theseven-team league. The,

Glaciers have two games in

hand.

L’Estrange brought the
team into the league four
years ago and piloted it toa
pennant win in -just three
years.

Reducing the speed of a
DC-8 airplane by 14 miles an .
hour adds only four extra
minutes to a flight between
Chicago and Los Angeles
but saves’164 gallons of fuel.

his players were not taking

was not available for
