Locals solid on Quesnel slopes ELEVEN TOP 10 divisional finishes highlighted the Shames Mountain Alpine Ski team’s recent trip to Quesnel... Jana Trappl had another fine weekend’s racing, opening with a fourth in J3 in Satur- day’s Giant Slalom then fol- lowing with the second fastest ‘time in the division in Sun- day’s Slalom. That last run saw her finish 2ist overall, a six place im- provement over her starting position. Chris Paziuk, Josh Mac- Donald and Graeme Dediluke, all JB class skiers, engaged in a private battle in Men’s races. Paziuk came out on top in the GS, taking eighth in the division two seconds clear of ninth placed MacDonald with Dediluke more than a second back in 10th. Sunday’s Slalom first run saw MacDonald come out of the gate immediately after Dediluke to clip just over a second off his teammate’s time. Dediluke reversed the order for the second run but couldn’! make up the leeway. MacDonald took fifth in the class by only three tenths of a second with Dediluke and Paziuk filling the next two spots. Sunday was also the better of the two ‘days for lan Mac- Cormac and Maithieu LeClere. Despite being among the last to ski, MacCormac sped fo 17th overall and seventh in the JB class while LeClere took the same spot among J2 skiers. Alesha Boyko rounded out the top ten finishes with a seventh in the J3 GS race, Patrollers set to defend zone title SHAMES MOUNTAIN. ski patrol team head for Smithers this weekend looking to repeat last year’s success in the First Aid and Toboggan Handling zone championships. Ski patrol zone president Barry Peters explained the competition requires the teams ta solve two first aid prob- lems, then handle a toboggan down the mountain over a spe- cially designed course, That last test includes two runs, one with the toboggan empty, one with someone strapped to it. The course will include a mix of terrain, flat, steep and moguls, he added. Last year Shames knocked off the '93 national champions from Prince George on the way to the zone title. Peters said five teams from Quesnel to Terrace took part last year and he hoped to see more this time. The Shames team will be Scott Trent, Ariane Viasblom, Faye Campbell and Jean- Pierre Harvey. Once the serious competition is done, the patrollers will wind up the Sunday, March 4 event with a fun GS race. NORDIC FORD MERCURY SALES AND FORD MOTOR CO.

The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, March 1, 1995 - C3 ‘All Seasons Source For Sports Presents... Only praise for the rookie| if this kid is so lazy, how come s he never seems to jeave the ice? That was the question after watching the youngest player in the NHL Icok like the best player in a game his team won belore its home fans. Eighteen-year-old Jeff Friesen ¥ came out-of junior hackey as one of its most talented players but f there were rumblings about his work ethic and willingness to give his all. Rumblings the San Jose 8 Sharks let fall on deaf ears. Now they're hearing league-wide praise for their prized rookie. - “A lat of things were blown out of proportion,” Friesen’ said, kicking back in his stall In the Sharks dressing room. “People | sald I'd float at times and then show up and score a couple of goals but a lot of what was sald wasn't fair or true.” Regardless, some teams listened because Friesen was rated the top junior in his class § before draft day, then slipped to 11th overall. It's remarkable how players get branded unfairly but it happens all the tine. Mike Bossy couldn't check, Doug Gilmour was too f small and Ron Francis was just too soft, All three will end up in the Hall of Fame. "| was kind of a wild card at the draft,” said Friesen. “Nobody before the Sharks wanted to take s achance on me." Now it doesn’t look iike they f tock a chance at all. Friesen is § more dangerous than the Sharks No, 1° right-winger, Sergei Makarov, who's been in a few more games. The rookie comes from Meadow Lake, Sask., a town of 4,500 that he says has produced its fair share of good. junior players. None better than Jeff. At 16, he was in the Westem Hockay League scoring 45 goals for the Regina Pats. At 17 he improved to 51 goals and made the national junior team. This season he made the team again and struck gold for the second time in Red Deer. He was ready § for the big time and is making the ge The Rees The << by Voice of Canucks Jim Hughson most of the opportunity, "My understanding of the game has changed a lot,” he said. “In junior we just played run and gun. { never had to play defence because they just wanted me to score goals, Now here | am killing penalties in the NHL and playing against other teams’ top lines.” His linematés are Ray Whitney from Fort Saskatchewan, Alta., and Pat Falloon, from Foxwarren,: Man. Together they cover the prairies and opposing lines centred by reputable forces like Roenick and Modano. But Friesen stands out because of his speed and strangth. While. the league has generally gushed over the arrival of Paul Kariya and Peter Forsberg and declared the rookie-of-the-year award a two- skater race, Friesen may have something to say about that. “Right now I'm not even thinking about that,” he says. “There's still a lot of room for improvement.” Especially once he gets over that jazy streak that's holding him to 25 minutes a game.

According to the Premier it was “the mast comprehensive public review of its kind in B.C. history.” Following the completion of the Report, the Premier cancelled the Project with no prior public consultation. Citizens might wonder why, since the Report is clearly favourable to the Project on environmental grounds, It seems Mr, Harcourtis the one with the back room deal, ; The Premier says “My government's decision protects the Fraser Fiver System and our salmon fishery forever". Good politics perhaps, but there Is no logical connection between this motherhood pronouncement and cancelling the project The Commission says: “ishways at Hells Gate, together with other works designaied to facilitate migration should ensure that any minor effect of KCP on the Fraser: River Flows would not affect salmon migration.” (p. viii, Summary Report) — .
