Page 9, The Herald, Thursday, November 4, 1979 Rangers whip L.A. By [IAN MacLAINE The Canndlan Presa Steve Vickers heard the trade rumors last week, and his confidence was flagging. He'd watched a couple of . recent New York Rangers games from the presg box. “T was prepared for any- thing,” the left winger ad- mitted after Wednesday's National Hockey League game with Los Angeles Kings. "I knew there was going tobe a trade and it just as easily could have been me,” It wasn't. The Rangers sent another left winger — Pat Hickey — to Colorado Hockies as part of the five- player package that netted deienceman Barry Beck, Coach Fred Shero, it seems, had other plans for Vickers, “We figured we needed lo make a change, so we put Vickers wilh the Swedes," said Shero, speaking of centre Ulf Nilsson and right winger Anders Hedberg. The change produced immediate results ‘when Nilsson, Vickers and Hed- berg combined for four goals and seven assists in the Philli Doug Collins, Philadelphia 76ers guard, sat in the locker room at halftime, four points un his ledger, ‘In the past, 1 would have #otten upset,” Collins said. “It's a wacky game and it can drive you totally up a wall. I'm such an intense guy, getting only four points is frustrating.” Collins, however, came aut after the half and scored 26 more points to lead the 76ers to a 110-102 win Wednesday over Kansas City Kings and keep Philadelphia atop the National Basketball Association's Atlantic Division. Added to Collins’ first-half frustrations was the Kings’ Otis Birdsong, the game’s high scorer with 85 points. Collins drew first-half duty on the Kansas City guard. Collins' long jumper with 7:22 left in the game put Philadelphia up for good at 89-87, Three straight technicals on Kansas City made it 93-87 as the 76ers won their third in a row, Elsewhere in the NBA, Boston topped San Antonio 117-105, Indiana downed Portland 97-90, Atlanta whipped Detroit 115-107, Rangers’ 8-4 rout of Los Angeles.

(AP) — If major league baseball owners harbor any strong feelings about their pending negotiations with the players union, they're keeping them to themselves, After a 24-hour meeting wwqee eseay a sptkesman for the owners refused to answer most questions put to “We are trying very hard not to create a crisis at- mosphere or negotiate in the press,” said Ray Grebey, director of the player relations committee, "Collective bargaining is tough enough.’ American League owners also met briefly for what president Lee MacPhail termed an updating on baseball's quest to move the Cakland A’s franchise. “There was nothing mean- ingful or eartixshaking to come out of this meeting," MacPhail told reporters. The Qakland franchise, owned by Charles O. Finley, is baseball's eyesore, drawing a only 300,000 spectators last season while the game itself enjoyed record attendance. A Denver ollman, Marvin Davis, has tried to purchase the club but Finley's lease with the Oakland Collseum has eight years to run and all efforts to negotlate a set- tlement have been wun- successful, “The situation is as it is — the club is not successful there,” MacPhail sald. “And there is question whether the area can maintain tvo major league clubs.” He declined comment on reports AL owners have agreed to contribute $1 million towards a $4-million settlement, “J’m not going to talk figures with you,’ he said. "Tm just saying we're anxious to do it, we want to do it and the clubs are willing to participate. The snag is whether they (Oakland -of- ficials) want to let major league baseball] out of their city. We feel that since there isa major league club in the area already, that question is somewhat mitigated," Any settlement with Oakland officials would presumably include San Francisco Giants playing part of their home schedule in Oakland. “We would very definitely be interested in moving to Denver and having Mr. Davis owna club’ MacPhail said. “But this is no great change in our position.” MacPhail said he and baseball -commissioner Bowie Kuhn were in Oakland Oct. 15 and met with Oakland Coliseum directors to diseuss the situation. Grebey termed the player relations meeting routine and said no date had been set for the start of negotlations, The current players‘ agreement, which gave birth to the era of free agency, expires this year and some owners previously Indicated they might favor a hard stand against further can- cessions, “We are not going to discuss igsues before they come up,’’ Grebey sald. “This {s a routine contract negotiation, something that happens all across the FOUNDED BY BREWER Matthew Vassar, a wealthy brewer, donated $400,000 to start Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y,, in 1861, NOTICE In observance of Remembrance Day, Sunday, November 11, 1979, the offlces of the District of Terrace will be closed Mon- day, November 12, 1979.

Most conferences are held down south. Most, but not all, Cary Humphrey, manager of the Terrace Swimming pool, is organizing an aquatic conference to take place in Terrace the Dec, 7 weekend, Humphrey, who has been the zone chairwoman of the B.C. Recreation Association for the last eight months, began to plan the event in August of this year. "It's really expensive for people. from northern B.C. communities lo go south for conferences, and I felt it was lime to hold one here,"’ he said. “Iv'll be a lot less ex- pensive for people in the north, especially in the northwest, to come to Terrace than it would be for them to travel down south.” The conference is only connected with the BCRA peripherally, though. While it lasts from Friday to Sunday, the actual siminars and conference activities end Saturday night. BCRA zone meeting will be held Sunday afternoon. The conference itself has been organized to provide information about pools in general and northern pools in particular to communities which either already have facilities or are considering building them. Communities from as far away as Fort St. John are sending representatives from municipal govern- ments and recreation committees to Terrace to attend seminars and lectures dealing with topics of in- terest to pool staff and management. -Friday the conference gets underway with registration at 8. a.m. and seminars start at 9:30 a.m. Humphrey hopes that the conference will help the development of aquatic programs /n the north. “By offering some cheap exposure to new trends in aquatic programs."
