Ninety-two-year-old Mabel
Hobenschield .is half of
Terrace’s champion crib team
that heads to next month's B.C.
Seniors’ Games in Coquittam, .

Hobenschield, who has
played the card game for nearly

70 years says a friend, Fred: =
Berghauser, asked her to part-'

ner him this year,

“So we went to Prince Rupert
and we took first place,’ she
says. '“We didn't.lose.a game.
He says with his skill and my
luck we won,"’ she jokes. ‘And
[ sure was lucky. Boy, I had
good hands and a good turn-up
every time.”’

Hobenschield Jearned to play_
crib in Kitwanga in 1924 with
her husband. “I just don’t
know how we got started,”’ she
says. “‘] didn’t think I'd ever
learn and my husband didn’t
have much. schooling. But we

got started and we played all the . |

time. .

- “When my husband was alive
he had to have our three games
before he went to. bed.’ Now

that her husband is dead, she .

has found other avid players at

the ‘Happy Gang Centre. ot
