Raining Terror On The Tirpitz
70 years ago Bud Abbott flew into aerial combat for the first time, aiming to bring destruction to a powerful German battleship F E R DY B E L L A N D
O
ne morning in April, 1944, Philip “Bud” Abbott climbed into the cockpit of a Fairey Barracuda bomber, took off from the deck of the aircraft carrier Furious, joined a squadron of fighters circling overhead, and set off into aerial combat for the first time. The target of the attack by two Royal Navy squadrons was what British officers bitterly referred to as “the Iron Whore.” “We finally rounded the last turn at the far end of Kaafjord and actually saw the Tirpitz anchored in harbour,” Abbott told the Townsman last week. “There she was!” And then, all hell broke loose. The Tirpitz was the sister ship of the dreaded Bismarck, and was the largest battleship ever built by a European navy. Since the destruction of the Bismarck in 1941, the Tirpitz had been holed up in a Norwegian fjord, seldom venturing forth to attack Allied shipping, but still a great menace which kept allied warships tied up when they were needed elsewhere.

This photograph was taken on April 3, 1944, from the cockpit of Philip “Bud” Abbott’s Fairey Barracuda bomber by Abbott’s navigator. The explosion on the left side shows Abbott’s bomb hitting the C-turret of the German battleship Tirpitz and exploding. “It really didn’t do any damage,” Abbott said. “But the whole time it was anchored in Norway it presented an enormous threat, to the point where it basically tied up the British Home Fleet in Scapa Flow, watching for this damned thing to come out. “And if it did come out and got into the shipping lanes, it would create enormous havoc. Quite a monster.” Bud Abbott, wellknown around Cranbrook, joined the Royal Navy in 1941. “I was contemplating volunteering, and my first choice was the Navy,” he said. “I thought if I wasn’t accepted into the Navy that I’d try the Royal Air Force (RAF). I managed to end up in what you would call the Naval Air Force. So it was an ideal combination of the two — the Fleet Air Arm. I
was chosen as a pilot, so I went into training for some time and starting flying later in 1941.” Abbott was assigned to convoy work in the North Sea and the Atlantic, doing anti-submarine patrol work. “We’d go halfway across the Atlantic and then back again, since we’d be met halfway by American or Canadian naval crews.” Over the next two years, Abbott flew many types of aircraft. “I mostly flew the Swordfish — an oldschool biplane, fixed undercart, no hood, no canopy, open air, no radio. Quite a neat, light little plane. We called them “Stringbags” since it seemed they were tied up mostly with haywire. It tottled along, not very fast. “From there we went on to a more advanced biplane, the Fairey Albacore. It had a sliding

sance was our principal duty. Later on we developed sonar to locate enemy submarines, but to begin with, we just kept our eyes open.”
Abbott said he never got to drop depth charges on any U-Boats. “The U-Boats were generally very wary and stayed down and deep, out of sight. They were wise enough not to show themselves. We would fly patrols over the sea for three or four hours and then head back to the carrier and be replaced by another flight shift. Not very exciting, that.” Abbott also did a few test runs with the Spitfire, the Hurricane, the Firefly and the Gladiator. “Those were all flown in fun — not in operation. I found the Spitfire to be very touchy. With every little move on the joystick, the thing was jerking all over the place. Extremely sensitive! And landing was quite tricky. It was anxious to take off again all the time!
“Flying those sort of dogfighters was quite different from the aircraft we flew. Our machines were usually quite slow and heavy.” Abbott spent the next two years flying routine, uneventful patrols. But in 1944, all that would change dramatically. Up until this point, Abbott had never experienced aerial combat. “We never went across the Channel, never flew over France,” he said. “We were concerned with the North.” The main British base in Scotland was Scapa Flow, in the Orkney Islands. “The entire Home Fleet could gather in there in comparative safety,” Abbott said. “I flew off several aircraft carriers: the Illustrious, the Indomitable, the Victorious, the Furious, and others.”

It was the second major incident for the fire department in a 48hour period. At 9:20 pm on Thursday, Nov. 6, 2014, Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services responded to a structure fire at 1504 1st Street South – a 15 unit apartment complex. The fire alarm system was activated and notified the 17 tenants of the fire and they evacuated the building. Three fire fighters and one engine initially arrived on scene to find a fire in the basement suite of the apartment complex. In all a total of 21 members were in attendance and two fire apparatus responded to the incident. The fire had the potential to extend into the entire building, however, it was quickly knocked down and crews were able to contain the fire to the suite of origin. There were no injuries to the tenants or the fire fighters. Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services thanks the staff of Emergency Social Services, for their quick response and attention to assisting those tenants affected. Due to the potentially harmful environment the most of the tenants were put up in hotel accommodations overnight, while several were able to stay with friends. There are no damage estimates currently available.

Attack on the Tirpitz: Operation Tungsten Continued from page 1 Abbott paused in his recollection. “And one day the orders came to kill the battleship Tirpitz.” The Tirpitz was officially launched in 1939 by Hitler himself. The statistics are still impressive 70 years later: 823 feet long and 116 feet wide amidships, the ship displaced 58,000 tons fully loaded and sat 30 feet in the water. Tirpitz was protected by two separate armoured decks of 15 inches of hardened steel. The 163,000-horsepower engine gave her a top speed of 30 knots (56 kmh) — the fastest battleship afloat. Her crew complement was more than 2,000 officers and men and she was armed with over 118 guns, ranging from eight 380 mm main-turret cannons down to 88 mm anti-aircraft guns. When World War II broke out, both the Tirpitz and the Bismarck were considered a major threat. The pursuit and destruction of the Bismarck in 1941 was a major propaganda boost to the Allies, who at that point in the war were struggling to stem Axis advances. Hitler forbade the deployment of Tirpitz as a result, for fear of its loss. Tirpitz languished at the Wilhelmshaven naval base until mid1942, when she made her way to Nazi-occupied Norway. Tirpitz’s new assignment was to guard the Norwegian coastline against potential Allied invasion, as well as lay in wait to attack Allied supply convoys crossing the North Sea to the Soviet Union. And with that threat lurking on the edge of Allied operations at the Arctic Circle, there lay the groundwork for Operation Tungsten — as the attack on (and destruction of ) the Tirpitz was to be named. “Many of the ships were desperately required in other theatres of war. But they were just sitting there, watching this damned Tirpitz, terrified. But really, the Tirpitz was doing almost nothing. Occasionally being bombed, or being shelled, but with very little damage, because it was so well-armoured, and so difficult to get at. Most of the attacks by air
were aborted because it was so hard to get at in this hole it was sitting in. An enormous distraction, all around. “And I understand that the officers and crew of the Tirpitz were all just moping there in this idiot fjord, doing nothing, and thoroughly bored. They would be anxious to get some action.” And action they received: the British Admirality initiated Operation Tungsten — a powerful task force was assembled in Scapa Flow consisting of 21 ships, including two battleships, six aircraft carriers, and 10 destroyers. And, among his fellow squadron pilots on board the aircraft carrier HMS Victorious: Pilot-Lieutenant Philip Abbott. “I’d been stationed on the Victorious at that time,” Abbott said, “but we were temporarily switched over to the Furious. The squadrons were split between the two ships so we could all take off simultaneously. I went over with the rest of my squadron to the Furious. The Furious was a weird ship, the oldest aircraft carrier afloat at that time. She was laid out in 1915, but she wasn’t originally designed as an aircraft carrier —she was refit in the 1920s! And her deck always rolled to and fro, like a bloody logging truck!” The fleet set out on March 30, 1944, under the ruse of protecting an arctic convoy. “We sailed back south, and on the 3rd of April we launched our attack,” Abbott said. “We would not fly Stringbags this time — for this mission, we were to fly Fairey Barracudas.” Forty bombers flew in two waves, 10 from each ship, along with squadrons of escort fighters — Hellcats, Wildcats, Corsairs, and Seafires. “I was in the second wave. The first wave flew off at the break of dawn and got through to the target without any problems. They weren’t expected. They dropped their bombs and flew back to the carriers. Got through unscathed, with no casualties.” But there was an hour’s lapse between waves. It took time to

Quite impressive. While us, the underpowered heavily-laden bombers, were crowded to the far aft of the flight deck. We hoped to hell we could gun the engine hard enough to make enough speed to actually catch the air and take flight when we roared off the edge of the ship’s bow!” Abbott was frustrated with his reassigned aircraft. The Barracuda was a dive bomber, as well as a torpedo bomber and a reconnaissance plane. “The Barracuda was an interesting, but frustrating plane. It was a flying three-seater abortion, really. Way underpowered, with that Merlin 32 engine. On paper, the damned thing was supposed to make 386 kmh, but in practice you could only cruise at 160, 170 knots...maybe 200 mph — downhill, with a following wind, yes?” “During our run on the Tirpitz, we fortunately didn’t have to dive bomb. We came in at a reasonable angle — not like a bloody Stuka! As a plane, the Barracuda was okay, but it was only okay. Nothing you
would brag about in the officer’s canteen.” Once in the sky with his dubious aircraft, Abbott and his squadron were now all business.
“We were met with a heavy barrage of anti-aircraft fire, and dozens of Luftwaffe interceptors raced at us out of the sun! Our particular squadron peeled off from the main flight and began our attack run.” Bud Abbott “So there we were, Petty Officer Gallimore and Sub-Lieutenant Peck and myself, crammed into this Barracuda. We flew in for the coast, barely 50 feet above the waters to avoid German radar. The Tirpitz was 120 miles from our fleet, and when we reached the Norwegian coastline, we all climbed steeply to about 9,000 feet altitude and flew inland between the mountains. It was a bright, clear day at the end of winter. The mountains were gleaming white with snow, and the delightful scenery was very impressive.” The breathtaking beauty of the Norwegian wilderness was forgotten, though, as Pilot-Lieutenant Abbott
neared his target. “The first wave had inflicted significant damage on the Tirpitz. They landed several bombs on the ship’s main deck, and caused all sorts of ruckus — but none of the big 1600lb armor-piercing bombs managed to pierce the lower armour in the hull! The first bomber pilots had dropped their ordnance at too low an altitude for the penetration to be effective. And the Germans were spitting mad, and had had a good hour to prepare themselves for any follow-up attacks. So we finally rounded the last turn at the far end of Kaafjord, and actually saw the Tirpitz anchored in harbour. There she was!” And then, all hell broke loose. “We were immediately met with a heavy barrage of anti-aircraft fire, and dozens of Luftwaffe interceptors raced at us out of the sun! Our particular squadron, I think there were nine of us, peeled off from the main flight and began our attack run. We could see the ship, but much of it was clouded in by an artificial fog, created by the shore-mounted German smokescreen generators. Down in this fjord, this deep hole, if you will, and difficult to see! But each Barracuda had three 500-lb bombs, and we had to deliver them. So down we dove, our Barracuda shuddering through the explosions of the incoming
anti-aircraft shells. Difficult to keep aiming straight. Our escort fighters were dogfighting like mad with the Messerschmitts in the skies above us, and other fighters were below us, strafing the Tirpitz’s deck and attacking the anti-aircraft batteries on shore. We dropped our bombs, made our strike, and then banked off hard. We flew away as fast and low as we could get, racing back to the carriers. It all happened so very fast. Our squadrons got out of the skirmish quite lucky, actually. We only lost 9 airmen and 4 aircraft, all told. It could have been a heck of a lot worse, but the Tirpitz’s smokescreen actually worked double-duty in our favour. The German anti-aircraft gunners couldn’t see us and were all firing blind into the sky.” Even with the attack run successfully completed, Abbott’s squadron wasn’t out of the woods yet. “At that time after the attack, the weather suddenly became quite cloudy. It was now difficult to find our ship, and we were still over enemy territory. No one knew if the Luftwaffe would chase us down. And we were flying under complete radio silence. Radio communication was absolutely forbidden on this operation. We’re up there in the clouds, and the carrier was somewhere down underneath the clouds. Some of the pi-
lots couldn’t find our ships, and had to ditch in the North Sea and make their way back to the Norwegian shore, where they had to surrender to the rather unsympathetic German troops. But we managed to locate the Furious.” And even still, the gut-wrenching drama was not finished. “Our approach to landing back on the carrier deck was to come in high, just above the stall, as opposed to the American method where they bore in just above the waves. The stern of the carrier would be heaving up and down in the choppy seas, as much as 30 feet of movement high and low. You ran the risk of simply crashing hard and flat into the ass-end of the carrier if you didn’t have your wits about you. We came in high at full throttle, just above the stall, and came down almost in the centre of the deck, where there was a minimum of movement, and you hope to hell your braking hooks would catch the deck cables. You were a nervous wreck!” The British High Command agreed that Operation Tungsten was a success, even though the Tirpitz wasn’t destroyed. She was severely crippled. The Tirpitz never took to open sea again, and was ultimately destroyed on 17 November, 1944, by RAF bombers. Abbott reflects on the loss of life among the Tirpitz’s crew. “We killed 123 and wounded another 329 of them, including her commander Hans Meyer. But that was part of it. It was war.” Abbott continued. “It was a shame, really, to have such a magnificent ship destroyed. It was a shame to have this sort of idiocy prevailing. The idiocy of war. It would be wonderful to see such a fine piece of naval history sitting pretty in some maritime museum.” After that unforgettable day of fire and steel, Abbott’s next missions fell back into less hazardous duties. “It was a good, clean life,” he said of his time in the Navy. “Much better than standing in mud up to your knees in the trenches.”

Committee forms to advocate Key City Theatre replacement Trevor Crawley Townsman Staff The RDEK isn’t ready for an official presence on a newly-formed committee that is advocating for a replacement building for the Key City Theatre, however, two board members will
serve as representatives from their electoral areas. During the monthly meeting of the RDEK board of directors, a motion was put forward to appoint two directors to have an official RDEK presence on the com-
mittee, but it was eventually amended so that those two serve in their capacity as their electoral representatives. This new committee will have representation from the City of Cranbrook, the Key City Theatre Society and the
school district. Mike Sosnowski, director for Area A, which includes much of the Elk Valley, had concerns that the two board appointees would be giving an impression that the RDEK was going to take an active role in

tives from the two electoral areas directly around Cranbrook,” Stetski said. “In the end, the board decided it would be the directors from around Cranbrook to participate in this new committee.” After discussion, Area C Director Rob Gay and Area E director Jane Walters were given the assent from the board to join the committee as representatives of their electoral area. “It’s a fine point, and once the committee forms up with all four partners in place, then there will be recommendations coming back to the board, potentially for recommendation by the Regional District for the replacement of the Key City Theatre, when the time comes, and that, of course, is dependent on the placing of the high school, so we’re not there yet, but it’s building that relationship and including the board because there are about one-third of participants that come to shows at the Key City Theatre are from outside of Cranbrook.” According to Stetski, any plans to replace the Key City Theatre are tied to the replacement of Mount Baker Secondary School. In terms of priority, the province is focusing on building schools in the fastest-growing areas, in terms of population, which is led by Surrey. The B.C. government is also working on earthquake upgrades and replacing old schools, of which Mount Baker is at the top of list in the Southeast Kootenay district. “The partners and the interest is still very much there and we’re hopeful in the next few years that Mount Baker will be replaced,” added Stetski.

Opinion/Events
On Financial restraint
There is one common element amongst new candidates in this election, about which I am surprised. It is the assumption by many of these candidates that they will, if elected, be able to greatly change the City’s budget. I wonder what magic wand and unknown skills they possess. Council has unanimously approved its Five Year Financial Plan, which was carefully crafted by very well qualified staff working in collaboration with Mayor, Council and Department Heads. I have attended most budget meetings and all but a few council meetings over the last five years. I have rarely, if ever seen any of these new candidates attend these meetings where rationales and discussions were heard. None of these candidates has provided insight as to what they consider frivolous spending. So scratching my head, I wonder if the following might be some of the items to which they refer. Subsidizing the Ministry of Highways to improve the West Entrance was a problem for a few councillors. It was the opinion of several Councillors that twin benches (a department decision) on 14th Avenue were not necessary. The bioswale on 14th Avenue is sorely misunderstood. The plant growth may not be pretty (to some) but there has not been a single flood since it was installed and the resulting debris and costly cleanups are gone.The total monetary sum of these items would not fill many potholes or lower taxes, let alone barely begin to pay for any infrastructure replacement. We must also remember a large part of the City’s budget is controlled by other authorities, policing and fire protection. So come on candidates, please be specific and enlighten us about where you will cut and what you consider to be frivolous spending. Jenny Humphrey
Candidates
I have quite recently moved to Cranbrook and I am not familiar with the political landscape of the city. Although I’ve read print materials about the candidates for Council and Mayor I attended the recent all candidates forum at the Key City Theatre in order to solidify or change my impressions of the candidates. To help voters reach a voting decision I’d like to share my opinions and feelings about the Mayoral candidates. The three candidates for Mayor had widely different views of what Cranbrook needs so citizens have a clear choice. I found Mr. York to be a fascinating, amusing man. He had some interesting ideas but seemed unsure of himself at times and didn’t articulated his platform as well as I would have liked. Mr. Pratt was the biggest surprise to me. He was a negative angry man. He pulled out all the cliché’s ad nauseam about attracting business, cutting the budget and road repairs. Mr. Pratt didn’t seem to like anything about the present Council and Mayor’s efforts to improve Cranbrook’s quality of life. I concluded that Mr. Pratt is a limited vision candidate with a slash and burn mentality. I was left wondering if he even liked Cranbrook. Mayor Stetski displayed a serene countenance throughout the evening. I thought he ably and proudly defended the current council’s term in office and presented a diverse vision for the future of Cranbrook. I liked Mayor Stetski’s positive attitude and multi- dimensional approach to make Cranbrook an even better place to live than it already is. I’m going to vote for Mayor Stetski. E. Anthony Collins
Have you received your voting instructions from the local CUPE Union in the mail? I am being told by the them for whom I should vote. Seriously? Of even more concern is the implicit, yet dire, warning that they are promoting a slate - a tax and spend Mayor (Stetski) and three councillors loyal to Mayor Stetski (Cross, Warner, and Blissett) who will ensure a majority on any vote at the Council table. All of CUPE’s choices promote social spending as a priority over basic infrastructure needs and protective services. Increasing our taxes each and every year at a rate well above the cost of living over the span of 8 years (Mayor Stretski’s current three year spending record plus his tax and spend vision for the next 5 years) is a recipe for disaster. But wait, it is apparently affordable because Councillor Cross assures us “we can tax the businesses more because they are able to write off their taxes”. Sheesh! Really? She obviously has no idea what it takes to run a business. Is it mere coincidence that none of CUPE’s choices have the distinction of running a business? Anyone with a willingness to increase taxes (I.e., Mayor Strets-

About Cranbrook taxes
Our previous letter to the editor has created quite the storm of interesting comments which definitely keeps the community engaged. There have been a number of positive responses from the community in general, however a few incumbents and their supporters have disagreed and state they lack facts. So here are the facts: When our letter stated that Cranbrook is the 4th highest taxed jurisdiction the study was based on 27 communities in BC with population category range from 10,000 to 24,999. This information is publicly available at civicinfobc.ca. These are facts and not opinions. Councillor Cross wrote a letter to the editor inferring that Cranbrook taxes are in the middle of the pack which is an opinion. She states that she has researched 9 municipalities in BC with population category from 16,000 to 24,000 and includes Courtenay BC (population just over 24,000) and then quotes in the newspaper that `…Cranbrook is around the middle. This statement is incorrect. So let’s review these 9 municipalities that she refers to and tell me if our municipal tax rates are in the middle as she wrote in her letter to the editor on Tuesday November 4th. Residential Municipal Rate Business Municipal Rate City Residential Rate City Business Rate Port Alberni 9.1145 Cranbrook 19.3029 Cranbrook 7.3476 Port Alberni 15.4923 Williams Lake 5.88 Fort St John 14.5986 Ft St John 5.189 Colwood 13.7962 Salmon Arm 4.91 Williams Lake 12.71 Courtenay 4.04 Pitt Meadows 12.4822 Pitt Meadows 4.01 Salmon Arm 12.0018 Colwood 3.4916 Courtenay 11.3279 White Rock 3.679 White Rock 8.728 *source www.civicinfo.bc.ca survey of residential and business municipal tax rates. These 9 communities’ tell us that Cranbrook has the 2nd highest tax rate for residential and the highest business rate. What Councillor Cross most likely meant was that the ``Tax Gap Rate`` is in the middle. There is a large difference between a Tax Rate and a `Tax Gap Rate` The Tax Rate calculates how much you pay for the municipal portion of your taxes based on per $1,000 of assessed value. The `Tax Gap Rate is the gap between the Residential Rate and The Business Rate. I trust this clarifies to Councillor Cross that indeed Cranbrook Tax Rates for both residential and business are some of the highest in BC. Please visit www.civicinfobc.ca to verify these findings. We (Christy and I) have also included the full study of 27 jurisdiction tax rates for population size however do not think it will be published in the local paper due to length requirements. It is unfortunate that some choose to counterattack us personally when we are only pointing out the facts and encouraging community discussion about taxation and spending in our City and the need to control its escalating costs.

Boundary expansion
As the upcoming civic election draws to a close there is an issue a friend and I would like addressed. A few years ago the Council of that day made a decision to bring the land that is now Shadow Mountain into the city limits. They did so without notifying taxpayers or informing them of potential costs or benefits to the city. They were also going to bring the huge land block of the East Hills in — again with no notice or discussion. This project included placing a road through the Community Forest. I assume the land owners of the East Hill may still desire to have the their land within city limits, or subdivision. I am hoping the candidates in this election will respond to this letter and let all the taxpayers know two things: 1. How you would vote on a request to bring the East Hills area into the city; 2. How open would you be with taxpayers prior to making ANY decision that would have lasting implications for them. Lorill Love

Global warming stalled politically too On most issues this column discusses, the feedback I receive is generally negative. One exception has been human-caused climate change, where my mail runs three to one in favour of a skeptical approach. Most express relief at having someone question the exaggerated or false claims advanced by environmentalists who strive to paint Alberta and B.C. as home to uniquely evil climate crimes. As mentioned last week, this is an urgent issue in B.C. as the government pushes to develop liquefied natural gas exports. The B.C. Liberal approach to limit only the “intensity” of greenhouse gas emissions from LNG production, and make no commitment on the majority of emissions from upstream gas production, looks like the effective end of Gordon Campbell’s crusade to lead North America in “climate action.” The government has also abandoned Campbell’s collapsed effort to set up a capand-trade system with various U.S. states to regulate emissions. Which brings me to a key reason for public skepticism. Going back to Jean Chrétien’s lip service to the Kyoto Accord, the world-wide effort to rein in fossil fuel emissions has been a smog of hypocrisy, hollow promises and failed experiments. The next grand climate summit is
scheduled for Paris next summer, although the vast international green bureaucracy will first have to jet to Peru for a pre-summit summit. The European Union has just agreed to a Campbell-like new target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 40 per cent by 2030. But that’s dependent on the Paris summit reaching a legally binding international deal, something the United States remains unwilling to do. BC VIEWS Meanwhile, Germany is building new coal-fired Tom power plants. Fletcher In Ontario, a grandiose scheme to replace coal-fired power with wind, solar and other renewables has produced steeply rising electricity rates and a political scandal over a cancelled plan to build gas-fired capacity. The public continues to be bombarded with ginned-up stories of environmental destruction. You may have seen shocking TV reports in October of a “haul-out” of thousands of walruses on beaches around the Chukchi Sea in Alaska and Russia, with animals trampling each other. The World Wildlife Fund and U.S. biologists rushed to media to frame this as a crisis caused by a lack of sea ice. This claim has been demolished by Susan Crockford, an evolutionary biologist who teaches at the University of Victoria. If you Google “Walrus mass haulout hype
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
refuted” you will find Crockford’s brief video showing a long, pre-industrial history of these events. She concludes that they are a sign of overpopulation in the now-protected walrus herds. Crockford’s website, polarbearscience. com, debunks similar claims made about supposedly disappearing polar bears that have been a mainstay over the years to drive the global warming catastrophe narrative. In terms of actual reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, there are signs of progress. The United States has made considerable strides, thanks to abundant shale gas that has allowed it to switch from some of its 600-odd coal-fired power plants. Which brings us back to B.C.’s push for natural gas exports. The NDP claims to support this, but has spent hours in the legislature warning of a giveaway of the resource, imagined fracking disasters and LNG tanker explosions and everything else they can dream up to throw at it. This is the same party that campaigned against the carbon tax in 2009 and hasn’t had a coherent energy policy since. But this isn’t some partisan game. It’s about whether B.C. maintains its gas industry. And so far natural gas is the only thing that has substantially cut carbon emissions. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Rollin’ with Reinhart & friends
Boosted by the return of star forward, Ice embark on three-game win streak with victories over Edmonton & Swift Current
Chris Pullen Photo/cranbrookphoto.com
It didn’t take long for Sam Reinhart to reacquaint himself with scoring goals alongside his Kootenay Ice teammates. The star centre scored 32 seconds into his return, helping the lead the Ice to a pair of victories this past weekend. katchewan Midget Hockey League. The move leaves the Ice with 23 players on the active roster (2G, 7D, 14F). In 13 games, the 2013 ninth-overall bantam pick tallied one assist and a minus-5 rating. He posted 13 goals and 30 points in 43 games during the 2013-14 season with the Generals. Legien was a healthy scratch Saturday against Swift Current…F Jon Martin (upper body, one week), F Kyle O’Connor (lower body, day to day) and D Tanner Faith (upper body, indefinite) all missed both victories due to injury…F Austin Vetterl dressed in his 150th game as a member of the Kootenay Ice…After 2,307 fans showed up to see Sam Reinhart’s debut, another 2,243 took in Saturday’s shootout win…Kootenay’s 3-2 shootout win marked the 250th of head coach Ryan McGill’s WHL coaching career...

second line, featuring Levi Cable, Luke Philp and Jaedon Descheneau, doing the branding Saturday against the Swift Current Broncos. Philp opened the scoring and after battling to a 2-2 draw through overtime, the 19-yearold alternate captain extended the shootout with a quick release that beat Broncos goaltender Landow Bow. “The key is to have something set in your mind with what you’re going to do,” Philp said of his composure. “It works for me. The more I think about it, the more I stress out. You’ve just got to kind of set yourself with one move.” With the game in the balance, Descheneau scored on a similar shot, beating the reigning CHL Goaltender of the Week to put the Ice ahead for the first time in the skills competition. Carter Rigby missed at the other end of the rink and the Ice claimed their third consecutive victory. Wyatt Hoflin earned both starts this weekend, making 46 saves on 51 shots. The weekend results push the Ice to 6-13-0-0. The Ice wrap up a sixgame home stand Friday, Nov. 14 when the Calgary Hitmen return to Cranbrook. The last time the Hitmen visited Western Financial Place, they laid a 9-2 licking on the hosts. “[We need to] be consistent with our game,” Descheneau said Saturday. “[Against Edmonton] we played a great game. We were in their zone all game, kept pressure, passes were on the tape all the time and moving the puck quick. If we do that all the time, no one can beat us. We’re a fast team with lots of skill and good goaltending. If we follow the game plan and do the little things [head coach Ryan McGill] tells us to do, we’ll be fine.” Notes: After Saturday’s shootout win, the Ice announced F Jared Legien had been assigned to the Moose Jaw Generals of the Sas-

It didn’t take long for Sam Reinhart to make himself at home in the comfortable confines of Western Financial Place. Along with the return of Tim Bozon, a much more confident Kootenay Ice squad rattled off two wins this weekend, edging the Edmonton Oil Kings 4-3 Friday, before using a shootout to get past the Swift Current Broncos 3-2 Saturday. The pair of victories helped build a modest three-game winning streak for the Kootenay Ice, who had dropped seven consecutive games prior to this most recent run. Making his season debut Friday night against the Edmonton Oil Kings, the 19-yearold native of North Vancouver drove hard to the doorstep of Oil Kings goaltender Tristan Jarry. After he couldn’t get the first try past the 19-yearold Pittsburgh Penguins prospect, Reinhart managed to find space inside the post, putting home his first of the WHL campaign. All of this within the first 32 seconds of the first period on his first shift since returning from the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres. “The biggest thing is getting used to these minutes again,” Reinhart said Friday night. “I think it was important to get an early one to get my confidence back. It’s certainly a different type of game playing here and I think that was important, to get off to a good start. I imagine the legs will feel a lot better next game.” The 6-foot-1 pivot averaged just 10:21 of ice time during his nine games with the Sabres. It’s safe to say Kootenay Ice head coach Ryan McGill utilized Reinhart for more than 10:21 Friday. The 2013 WHL Player of the Year was the focal point on a revamped power-play that saw seven opportunities and cashed in twice against the Oil Kings. Reinhart headlined the top power-play unit, which featured defence-
man Rinat Valiev and Luke Philp on the point, with sharp-shooters Jaedon Descheneau and Tim Bozon up front. If 32 seconds into the first period wasn’t fast enough, Reinhart shaved 11 seconds off that mark, scoring a power-play tally 21 seconds into the middle period off a cross-crease pass from Tim Bozon. “I think we can still get better, create more,” Reinhart said. “The puck movement was there. I think we need to get back to moving ourselves a little bit more. We were a little bit static at times. There’s stuff to work on. We’ve only had one day of practice on the power play.” Reinhart wasn’t the only returnee to have an immediate impact. After playing Oct. 24 and 25, forward Tim Bozon missed three games with a lower-body injury. The native of Valbonne, France, returned to Cranbrook with the ailment and wasn’t at full health in his initial foray within the lineup, further aggravating the injury. The speedy sniper appeared back at full health this weekend, grabbing two goals to help fuel a recharged Kootenay Ice offense. “When I play at 100 per cent, I think I can be dangerous,” Bozon said Friday. “Against Calgary and Spokane, I was not 100 per cent. It was tough for me. I wanted to make sure I came back 100 per cent. “It was long and really frustrating. I was injured when I came here [from AHL Hamilton] and we did everything possible to get me into the lineup as soon as possible…After those two games against Calgary and Spokane, we understood that I needed to be 100 per cent to come back otherwise it was not going to get better and I wouldn’t be efficient on the ice.” While Kootenay’s unofficial top unit, featuring Reinhart, Bozon and Zak Zborosky, did the heavy lifting Friday, providing three goals, it was the Ice’s unofficial

always as easygoing as you are. Honor a change within a relationship. The other party could be quite different from you and might have different interests. Be smart. Give this person some space. Tonight: On a roll. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Allow yourself to see someone in his or her element. As a result, you might realize how unclear you have been about this individual. He or she could demonstrate a romantic quality, which will add excitement to your interactions. Tonight: Hang out with a favorite person. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You would be wise to encourage others to express their feelings and ideas. You will get a better idea of what you are working with.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll ease into a seemingly carefree Monday morning. By midday, you could notice a change in a key person’s demeanor. You know how to handle this person, but he or she also knows how to handle you. The trick will be how to avoid a power play. Tonight: Try to relax. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your finances continue to be a main priority. How you see a personal matter could change quickly because of an unexpected choice and discussion. This new perspective will lead to more empathy between you and someone else. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might want to be more circumspect with your budget, as you never really know when there could be a problem. You have a habit of overindulging if you are not careful. Understand what is happening within your immediate circle. Tonight: Pay the bills, then decide.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Defer to others. You might want to assume control, but allowing others to try out their ideas will benefit everyone. It is likely that you’ll need to keep some distance from someone who is quite controlling. Tonight: On center stage. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You seem to be pushing past your normal limits. You know what you are capable of, and you will be able to do whatever it takes to get there. You could be amazed by what you can accomplish and by how good you feel expressing your talents. Tonight: Do a vanishing act. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Know when to turn your back on a situation that no longer appeals to you.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I was in a long-distance relationship with “Jerry” for six years. He frequently spoke about commitment, but when he still wasn’t ready to do anything after all that time, I broke things off. That was a month ago. Although our breakup wasn’t particularly acrimonious, it has been difficult emotionally. I used to spend summers with Jerry and his now 9-year-old daughter, and took care of her while he worked. We developed a close bond. I’ve only spoken to Jerry once since our breakup, but I’m wondering what I should do about his daughter. I still love her and would do anything for her, but I don’t want to overstep my ex-status. How do I say goodbye from a distance? I don’t want to hurt her. -- Miss Her, Not Him Dear Miss: This is not an uncommon problem when couples split up. There is still an attachment to the children, and more importantly, the children often feel the loss. Please talk to Jerry about this. Ask whether his daughter is having difficulties with your breakup and what you can do to help. Perhaps you could write her an occasional letter or email, maintaining a distant friendship so she knows you have not abandoned her. While you should do nothing to encourage a belief that you and Dad are getting back together, make sure she understands that she will always have a place in your heart and she can call or write you any time. We trust Jerry won’t get in the way of something that is in his daughter’s best interest. Dear Annie: It is almost Thanksgiving, and my boyfriend has asked whether I would like to go to his daughter’s home for Thanksgiving. I thought that was nice of him, as my family does not live near me. He called his daughter to let her know I accepted the invitation. But he also said he told his daughter I am “stout.” I felt insulted. I called him the next day and made an excuse that I would be unavailable for Thanksgiving after all. I am 20 pounds overweight, but I have no bulges. His comment hurt me so much that I haven’t gone out with him since. Do you think he was rude to say this to his daughter? -- Not Stout Dear Not: Yes. And just as rude to repeat it to you. We can think of no reason to justify his saying this to his daughter. Nonetheless, if this is the worst thing he has ever done in your relationship, please try to forgive him. Explain that you found his comment insulting (he probably doesn’t think so) and that you want him to stop discussing your appearance with other people. Dear Annie: I’m writing in response to “His Wife,” whose husband’s personality changed and he was later diagnosed with depression. In my case, the one in depression was me. I had a hysterectomy and thought I was fine. That was 14 years ago. Now, after 41 years of marriage, my husband has decided he wants a divorce and needs to move on without me. He said something happened to me and that our marriage has been over for a long time. I had no idea I had changed in any way. After reading the letter from “His Wife,” I realized I had gone into a depression. Loss of hormones and painful intercourse did change my moods, creating anger and the loss of affection. My husband never addressed the problems. His usual way of handling anything is to ignore it, walk away and hide. So instead of making me see how I’d changed, he found a girlfriend, vacationed with her and gave her diamond earrings. I want to let couples know that the way to resolve things is to talk about them before it’s too late. And never rule out a medical diagnosis like depression. -- On the Way to Divorce Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
