King of the Mountain winne

Richard Harrison, now six-time
men’s open winner of the King
of the Mountain footrace!

Junior men’s division title went
to Joe Nelson of Prince Rupert,
1 of 3 talented running brothers.

Anna Bernard was a 1st-time
winner of King of the Mountain's
women’s open section.

Corisa Berlin was the only
juvenile girl entered, so she
received a prize as well.

PS...

Roy Cole won the gold medal
for Class ’B' trapshooting at the
recent B.C.Summer Games.

Final results of the 14th annual
"King of the Mountain’ foot race
in Terrace on July 28 seemed to be
very similar to past years on the
men’s side.

For Smithers’ Richard Harrison,
it was a ‘piece of cake’ as he
legged in the best men’s and best
overall time of 37 minutes, 30
seconds. The record-holder at
35.29 in 1988, counted his sixth
triumph in this annual’ summer
event, (He had won previously in
1983, 84, 85, 86, and 88).

For Terrace’s Colin Parr (a two-
time past winner in 81 and 87), it
was a familiar story. He was run-
nerup to Harrison in 39.21. Colin

told us that despite having the
second best time overall in 14
years (35.33), he has had the unen-
viable honour of the runnerup
position at least half a dozen times.

One of the famed running
Nelsons of Prince Rupert (Charles)
garnered. third spot in open men
with a 41 flat timing.

The best female time was tumed
in by Rupert’s Rose-Marie Cheer.
She had won the open women’s
side last year, but moved up to
Masters women this year for the
best overall of 47.18.

Cheer had won her race in 1990
in 51.46, She was almost four
minutes faster this year in spite of

a

dreary conditions.

Actually, the rain and mud didn’t
discourage the entire Cheer family.
Rose-Marie’s two sons — Justin
and Brent — came home winners
as well. Justin won the Juvenile
boys in 48.45 while younger Brent
was runnerup in 50.35.

The open women’s crown went
to Anna Bernard in 50.12.

Race organizer Ed Ansems ran a
41.31 time to win the Masters (40
and over) section by about six

minutes over his closest rival.
Ansems said poor weather kept

the turnout down to 54 — not the
smallest ever, nor the largest ever.

Heaven...

The Cheer family of Rupert won their share of honours; mom
Rose-Marie won ladies’ masters, Justin (right) was juvenile
champ while brother Brent (left) was runnerup to Justin.

Blueback swimmers
right at home

Terrace Blueback swimmers felt
right at home during three major
meets in July.

In the July 5 to 7 junior provin-
cial championships at Victoria,
Dave Vanderlee (13) and Vince
Gair (11) took part from Tertace.

Dave won a bronze in the 400
individual medley, and placed fifth
in the 200 I-M and 400 freestyle.
He has another year in this section
and is expected to be near the top
next year. Vince was Up against
12-year-olds and failed to crack
the top 10.

In senior provincials at Victoria
on July 13 and 14, Tori Mac-
Kenzie and Denise Vanderlee
competed for Terrace. The 15 and
16-year-olds did a great job con-
sidering they were up against
National fevel swimmers in some
cases.

The i4-under B.C. Champion-
ships at UBC from July 19 to 21
provided the Bluebacks with their
best effort.

It was the "Garth Coxford meet"
with our 10-year-old chuming out
five gold medals (50, 100 and 400
free, plus the 100 fly and 200 1-
M). Garth also picked up a couple
of silver medals (100 back and 50
breast) and wound up with a fifth
place in the 50 fly.

Garth often finished several [zm meWORTORM|
metres ahead of rivals in his gold- ; |
medal events and was undisputed
grand aggregate winner for his
group. He is currently ranked best
10-under male swimmer in B.C.
and possibly Canada.

Aimee Peacock also had a good
meet, swimming her best time in
