OUR CAL. boys, and girls vallayball teams head into
a tournament this weekend at Caledonia,

Cal boys shape

up for tourney

THE CAL boys volleyball
team is starting io congeal
into what could be a force in
the northwest as the team
heads into a big tournament
here this weekend, ©

Coach Mark Neid says the
boys appeared really strong
at the start of the year, but
faltered recently in matches
against Kitimat.

‘‘We didn’t have any fin-

ish,” Neid says. ‘We
couldn’t capitalize on our
chances,”

So for the last two weeks,
Neid has been pushing the
team pretty hard, practicing
their weak areas like pass-
ing.

“Passing was one of the
things that did us in against
Kitimat,” Neid says.

Neid points out that the
team has plenty of potential
and some great players like
David Kelly, wha Neid
ranks as one of the best in
the zone,

**The older guys just have
to get some of the younger
guys motivated,” Neid says.
“So we can go into the
tournament with some
momentum.”*

Teams from all over the
northwest will be offering
the boys a chance to test
themselves at ihe tourna-
ment this Saturday at

Caledonia,

And on Sunday, the Cal
girls volleyball team gets
their chance to prove them-
selves
rivals,

against northwest

Become a hostess

HAVE YOU signed up to be a BC Winter Games
volunteer? Do you enjoy dealing with people? Are you
free on February 7 and 8? Marge Skead, one of the so-
cial events directors, tells me fifty hostesses are needed
by the end of the month,

If you are at all interested, mark Monday, November
on your calender. At 7:30 p.m. that evening there wil]
be a meeting al the Winter Games office, 4721 Lazelle
Avenue. It’s at the back of the Tillicum Twin Theatres
building. This mecting is for all who have already reg-
istered to become a hostess, as well as for everyone
else who might be interested. You can become either a
sports venue, or a VIP hostess. Thirty more volunteers
are needed in order to have a full slate.

Volunteering to be a Games hostess is only one of the
many ways you can help out. Be watching for the billet
registration form enclosed in your November 1st cable
bill. All Games participants 18and-under must be bil-
leted and that means a large number of athletes are in
need of accommodation. You'll find all the details in-
cluded on the form. Fill it in and drop it off to Diana at
the Games office.

Approximately $10,000 in net proceeds was realized
by the Rick and Paul King Foundation Auction and
Dinner, Many local businesses have already committed
funding or much-needed supplies for the Games,
Others have yet to confirm but have indicated that they
plan to contribute.

Some of the businesses who have already come on
board include All West Glass, the sponsor of the vol-
leyball events, as well as Ikon Office Solutions and
Bayview Fuels,

If your business has not been contacted about con-
tributing io the Games’ success, contact Wayne Braid,
the fundraising director. No matter how large or how
small your commitment, it will go a long way to help-
ing the athletes meet their goal of making the Games’
slogan of ACHIEVE THE DREAM come true and
making the 1997 version of the Northem BC Winter
Games a success for Terrace.

“Great shot, Charles. No way | could get
that one."

Charles put his arm around Angus and
escorted his friend off the squash caurt to
the locker rooms,

Later,
appeared ctistracted.

“Anything wrong, buddy? Can I be of
any help?"

Angus slumped In the chair. "Charles,
look we've been buddles a long time,”

“Yes we have,”

“There |s something you can do. [need a
loan for $57,200 to pay for a letter of credit
to bring In some goocis from Korea, but the
bank Insists on aca-signer, Would you co
sign? It’s Just a formality.”

Charles became very quiet. “This Is more
than bucidy buddy stuff, You've already had
one bankruptcy. Maybe you're heading for
ancther."

“Ah, come on, would! lead a buddy on?
Look, kid, | need your help. I'd do the
same for you. Besides, haven't I always
Pald you back?"

Charles closed his eyes and did some
deep thinking.” ;

“Okay, let's go see your bank manager,”

The manager was delighted to- see
Charles. "Charles, we know of your busl-
ness reputation. We also know what your
assets are, Just sign here, and we'll give
Angus the money he neecls, -

“Holct It one moment,” Charles sald,
“You know of Angus's previous bankruptcy.
I love the guy dearly, but high finance was
never his strong point. Does Angus have
any other loans?”

Mr. Banker, are you telling
me the truth, the whole truth, :
and nothing but the truth?

YOU BE THE JUDGE

by Claire Bernstein

Based On Actual Court Cases

The bank assured Charles. “No other
debts.”
~. Charles signed.

A few months later, Charles was horrified
to hear that Angus had gone bankrupt.

“lL shoulel have known. And now the
bank has come after me for repayment of
your Joan. Some frlend. Some bank,”

“Sorry, Charles,” Angus said. “But not to
worry, You know me, I've got lots of other
schemes up my sleeve. I'll pay you back,
In the meantime, I'll do this fer you. There
were other loans at the bank. And the bank
knew about them.”

Charles sued the bank,

“Your honor, I asked the bank manager
whether Angus had any other debts. He
said no. He lied, Angus had a loan of
$46,000, a mortgage of $85,000 and he
owed Revenue Canada $33,000. They
can’t make me pay when they liect to me, 1
would not have signed the note hadi |
known the truth."

The bank argued, “Your honor, we
belleved that Charles knew about Angus's
debts. Angus would not have needed
anyone to co-sign If the bank didn’t have
any doubts about his ability to pay. Charles
knew about Angus's previous bankruptcy.
He knew there was 4 risk, He accepted it
by signing. Make him pay.”

Should Charles pay? YOU! BE THE JUDGE,
Then look below for the decision.

"Mr. Bank, we're not going to Iet you collect fram Charles. You misrepresented Angus's
financial situation by not disclosing his indebtness, You got Charles to cosign the loan note
based on your comforting words that Angus had nu other debts,”

Today's decision is based on the facts of the case and the law of Manitoba,
