A Search & Rescue training exercise on Oct 27 simulated the crash of a 4-seat Cessna 172 that went missing on a flight from Calgary to Cranbrook. The crew of a Hercules aircraft, along with Cranbrook PEP Air (Provincial Emergency Program volunteers and Cranbrook SAR members worked the simulated crash site near the old Kimberley airport.

New water shortage response bylaw pending C AROLYN GR ANT
Kimberley’s new Water Shortage Response bylaw is working its way through the process and has now received first and second readings at City Council. Prior to third reading and adoption, Council would like to hear any comment Kimberley residents may have. The new bylaw is being brought in to respond to the low water situation this past summer, and the likelihood of low water levels occurring again. This past summer was long, hot and dry and even now, fall rains have been sparse. That has resulted in still only 3 cm of
water flowing over the Mark Creek Dam. At this time of year, most people have shut off their outside water so demands on the system are down as well, but Council wants to be prepared for next year with a bylaw that spells out levels of restrictions and penalties. The first level of restriction is what most residents are used to now — even/odd watering days depending on address with watering to be done between 4 and 10 a.m. and 6 to 10 p.m. Hoses for washing cars or anything else must be equipped with automatic shut offs. Stage 2 restrictions will require even numbered proper-

ties to water only on Wednesdays and Saturdays, same times; and odd numbers Thursdays and Sundays. City lawns, parks and boulevards will be watered once a week at Stage 2. Washing boats or motor vehicles, and pressure washing will not be permitted, nor will public fountains or water features be on. In Stage 3, there will be no watering of lawns allowed. Watering of sports fields will be allowed only to the extent of keeping them in usable condition. Golf courses will only water greens and tee areas. You may still water flower and vegetable gardens. Stepping up to level 4, there
will be no watering of lawns or gardens, no watering of school yards or sports fields, no operation of automatic car washes, no filling or re-filling of any type of pool. These stage 4 restrictions apply to golf courses and cemeteries as well. The City will make public announcements when entering any stage of restrictions. Penalties will begin at $100. Second offences may gain you a fine of up to $500, and no less than $250. In stage 4 restrictions, a commercial operator will be fined no less than $1000 for not following the bylaw. Residents who wish to provide feedback should write or contact City Hall this week.
Cranbrook and Kimberley city councils met last Tuesday night, October 27, to discuss joint initiatives between the two communities. The meeting was the first joint council meeting that the two cities have had since the new councils came onboard last election. Cranbrook Mayor Lee Pratt said it has been in the works for a while and he has had meetings with Kimberley Mayor Don McCormick over the past year. “Going back to square one, during the election Mayor McComick and myself introduced ourselves to each other and had a couple meetings,” Pratt said. “We decided then and there that what’s good for Cranbrook is good for Kimberley, and what’s good for Kimberley is good for Cranbrook,” he said. “We decided that if we were elected we would lean towards working together in getting some activity going for the region that would be positive for both communities.” Pratt said they also decided it was time to introduce the councils to each other. He noted that with Cranbrook being a new council and some new additions to Kimberley, the two councils didn’t really know each other. Mayor McCormick said that there are a lot

of common initiatives that the two communities share and are working towards. “So staying on top of that and making sure we’re supporting it in the best possible way is really important,” McCormick said. “The meeting (Tuesday) night was the first one to kick that off.” McCormick said the co-council meetings went back as far as the days Ross Priest was the mayor of Cranbrook and Jim Ogilvie was the mayor of Kimberley. “They saw that given the communities were close together, we should be trying to work a little closer together. Unfortunately those meetings happened once a year and there wasn’t a lot of follow up and there wasn’t an awful lot of things on the agenda that warranted work moving forward.”

Enrolment in the fall semester is up four per cent from last year at the College of the Rockies, as students continue to flood into popular trades and university transfer programs. The trend in increased enrolment is a trend that’s continued from 2013, as numbers have grown ten and a half per cent since then. Business Administration, Child, Youth and Family Studies, Tourism and Recreation Management and Kinesiology are areas that have seen the most significant growth, according to Jason Colombo, the COTR Registrar and Manager of Institutional Research. Colombo also noted that the transfer system in B.C. makes it easy for students to complete some of their programs locally before finishing in other institutions. “I would say every one of our academic, vocational and trades programs have transferability. If you look at trades, they’re Red Seal trades, so they’re inter-provincial and you can transfer your firstyear apprenticeship to any institution in B.C. or across the country,” Colombo said. “As far as transferability with the health programs, again the
mobility within British Columbia is one of the best in the world, definitely in Canada as far as the B.C. Transfer system goes.” A recent report by The British Columbia Council on Admission and Transfer (BCCAT), which looked at students who transferred to a degree-granting institution between 2008 and 2012, demonstrated a significant benefit of starting at College of the Rockies. The report noted that students who started at COTR and transferred to another institution typically did better academically than their peers with a higher GPA. Additionally, 85 per cent of COTR students who’ve transferred have completed their degree—the highest completion rate of transfer students from any B.C. institution. While trades, especially heavy-duty mechanics, remains popular, enrolment in other programs, such as the Child, Youth and Family Studies program has started to swell. “Our CYFS programs are cohorted programs. We can admit a certain number of students every year and so we’ve been meeting our maximums on that. We try to have students take those
programs on a full-time or full cohort basis, but many of our students are part-time learners and so the increase is due to two reasons. One—more of the students are taking a greater course load and we also received funding for additional seats for the Educational Assistant program,” Colombo said. College of the Rockies has also been ranked number one in the world in overall student satisfaction in the International Student Barometer, the largest annual survey of international students in the world, conducted by International Graduate Insight Group (i-graduate). “The i-graduate survey results point out the outstanding learning and teaching environment created by our faculty and also the exceptional support from everyone at the College, from the front door to our superb online environment,” Colombo said.

Successful work party at new jump park
For the Bulle tin
The work part a week ago Sunday was a success down at the new jump park, says volunteer Alex Buterman. “Approximately 15 volunteers came to help shovel, pack and shape a few of the different lines in the park. We had stretched a garden hose from across the street/ creek to get essential moisture onto the super dry dirt. This dirt with a large clay component packs really well. There is a kids “snake run” that links to the pump track below, designed for
small bikes and run bikes which is packed and ready to ride. A green run with gentle small tables, step up/step down with perfect rhythm between the features, also ready to ride. a larger blue line with larger step ups, hip jump, tables which actually has two options in the beginning — yet to be packed and shaped — and a large black diamond line with large gaps, hip jump ect... (to be packed and shaped). “Please don’t tamper with the jump lines or snake run. The snake

News from the Kimberley Garden Club Submit ted by Marilee Quist
I’m amazed at our beautiful, long, slow fall! It’s too bad those first couple of frosts ended the season for some of my late-blooming perennials, but it helped to get the gardens cleaned up earlier. I have been enjoying the changing colours on the mountains; one doesn’t realize how many deciduous trees (leaf and needle) we have in our area until this time of year. However, I’m waiting now for a couple of hard frosts so I can prune back my tea roses and put them to bed for the winter. Our October meeting was held back inside in the Selkirk High School library and we had very interesting guests from both the Cranbrook and Kimberley Top Crop stores, speaking on tender and hardy succulents and their care. We also learned that there are perennial cacti that are hardy to this area, and in the spring, they look withered and dead – but that watering them brings

Wait for a couple of hard frosts, then prune back your tea roses and put them to bed for winter. them back to life! I will try again next year, now that I know they don’t die over the winter! After the talk, we drew names and were each able to pick a potted succulent to take home with us. Thank you Top Crop for your generosity! Following that, we invited our speakers to join us for coffee, cookies and pear cake before we started on our short business meeting. We discussed some ideas for our educational programs in 2016, and are
asking members to think of what else they might like to learn more about next year. We will not be having a meeting on November 11th, but we are all looking forward to our pot luck finger food appetizer and dessert Christmas Social on December 9th. It is a wonderful opportunity to socialize and get caught up with our members’ lives outside of the meetings. Our next regular meeting will be Wednesday, January 13, 2016.
If you are interested in growing your own organic garlic for harvest next year, there is still time to plant it before the ground freezes. I find my home-grown garlic lasts in a cool, dry dark place for about 6 months, and tastes much better that what is available in the grocery stores. The Garden Club meets the second Wednesday of the month. From October through May, we hold our meetings at Selkirk High School, starting at 7 pm in the Library. From June through September, we tour member gardens, and if necessary, hold a short business meeting in the second garden while we enjoy refreshments supplied by the hostess. We welcome anyone who would like to learn more about gardening in Kimberley, whether you are new to gardening or new to the Kimberley area. For more information on our meetings, call Nola at 250-427-1948. Happy Gardening.

Joint meeting works out common ground From page 1 McCormick said he and Mayor Pratt have been working together quite closely since the last election to figure out how the two communities can work much closer together for mutual benefit. He said in the past the joint initiatives have had a tough time getting traction. “Between Mayor Pratt and I, we are determined to make the regional collaboration thing work,” he said. “We have a number of initiatives underway.” Pratt said the meeting consisted of information for the council members, as well as some details on initiatives he and McCormick have been working on. that included the Industrial Advisory Committee and another Cranbrook-Kimberley development initiative. “It’s in the very early stages right now but we just wanted to bring the councils up to speed on that and how it’s pro-
gressing,” Pratt said. McCormick added: “Over time Kimberley and Cranbrook have really behaved on their own with respect to their own economic strategies. But we’re small communities — even Cranbrook is a small community, when you look at what the resources are to attract industry, and so the whole idea of pooling resources and coming up with a regional strategy for doing that is one that just makes sense — so that is one we’ve been trying to do for the past couple months.” A delegation from Rail To Trails was at the meeting to update the two councils on their progress.
“That was good because let’s face it, the Rails to Trails is both communities, so it was good for them to get both councils at once,” Pratt said. McCormick said that Rails to Trails is a class A amenity that has become an attraction for tourists and locals who use it on a regular basis. The trail cuts through three jurisdictions, Cranbrook, Kimberley and the Regional District of East Kootenay. “The society that has been managing Rails to Trails has been struggling over the five years that it’s been open in terms of how to maintain it, how to kind of build the amenities on the trail and keep it up
to date,” McCormick said. The society has now come to the two cities asking for help and more funding. Since then, the CAOs and representatives from the society in both cities have got together to figure out ways to take some pressure off the society. “And come up with a plan to keep that thing a class A amenity,” he said. At the meeting Tuesday, the councils were brought up to speed. At the meeting Chris New, the director of Leisure Services, also updated gave a brief overview of the Kimberley Cranbrook 55+ Games. “It’s very early in the planning stages for that

before the meeting involved the usual pleasantries, but also the issues the councils have to deal with in their own cities. “We all have the same problems of course,” he said.
too,” he said. “He just let us know that first and foremost the emphasis is on Vernon. As soon as that is over we’ll get a lot more involvement with the directors and that of the 55+ Games committee to see where we’re going and what events are involved.” “That’s a big endeavour, there’s going to be several thousand people coming into our communities for those games,” McCormick said. “We’re a couple years away right now — it is early days.” The meeting also touched on the Resort Municipality Initiative. Pratt said that while that was more focused on Kimberley, it was quite informative for he and council. “I think that could be a target for us, to come up with some sort of initiative that our communities can get involved together on it and get a bigger share of the pie,” Pratt said. Pratt said the feedback he’s heard from those in attendance was positive. “It’s time that the two communities did get together and start working

The Way it Was, Oct. 1956 COURTESY OF THE KIMBERLEY HERITAGE MUSEUM ARCHIVES KIMBERLEY NEWS October 31, 1956 Armistice Plans Near Completion Kimberley will celebrate Armistice this year around a cenotaph, the realization of long years of planning on the part of branch 67 of the Canadian Legion in Kimberley. The memorial to Kimberley’s dead servicemen has been made by local labour, for the most part, approximately three tons of rock came from Cominco’s “open pit”. Twelve yards of gravel and 49 bags of cement were also used. The top of the cenotaph will be finished off with a torch effect. There is a delay in securing this, but this also will be done locally and it is hoped it would be completed by the end of the month. The plaque was donated by Grey Royal Granite Quarry, J.S. Wilson and Son, Co. Ltd. of Sirdir, B.C. The Canadian Legion meeting was held Thursday, October 25, with Canon yerburgh, Padre to Branch No.67, in attendance. Canon Yerburgh assisted in the planning of the unveiling and dedication of the cenotaph. Also assisting in the planning for the actual Armistice service at the cenotaph November 11.

P.T.A.Presents Playground Report
The P.T.A. community playgrounds were bigger and better than ever this year. The season began July 2 and continued until August 28. The summer began with three playgrounds operating: Miss Davene Herman at McDougall, Miss Barbara Jones and Miss Barbara Staniforth at Rotary Park and Miss Mavis Wynn at Chapman Camp. At the end of July Chapman Camp was discontinued because of poor attendance and as Help was needed at McDougall, Miss Wynn was transferred there. The budget, appropriated by the community chest for this year was $650, with $600 going to the girls salaries, $15 to miss Patrick for training them and $35 for playground supplies and petty cash. Many and varied crafts and activities were carried on, including all of the following, and more: safety posters, doll contests, dog contests, a suggested cat show, health poster, scavenger hunt, colouring contests, field day, cowboy and Indian day, sandbox competition, pie eating contest, track meet, softball league and doll making. For a job well done the P.T.A. wishes to thank the girls who worked so faithfully, and the Community Chest for the grant that makes the playgrounds possible.

Me and my knees against the world
T
here must be something radically wrong with my knees and I have no idea what it might be. For a person of my great age, my knees work just fine, thank you, and yet there must be something sacrilegious or even irreligious that is wrong about them; people representing gods simply cringe before them. The recent missionaries who visited my place positively paled when, wearing my summer shorts, I opened my door to them. The lady actually backed away, paling behind her make-up, then delivered her well-rehearsed speech perfectly. I didn’t actually concentrate on what she was trying to tell me because I was staring down at my knees wondering what was wrong with them. At least my fly wasn’t undone. The man bravely attempted to continue but wandered off his script and got very confused, probably because of my prominent and naked knee-caps. Two smartly dressed young men, probably from the Church of the Latter Day Saints, bolted when my son and I stood in the garden and waved cheerfully at them as they approached my house last summer. It may have been our bare chests and naked knees that drove them away but, there again, it may have been my son’s two large dogs. You just can’t tell.
It didn’t used to be like that, not the way I remember. When I was very young, our cub-scout-master used to march us into the local Church of England where the preacher smiled benevolently upon us, with our bare knees and all, then bored us to tears with long, tedious sermons and then ordered us to kneel quite a bit. Our cub master must have suffered too, and he did have extremely boney knees. Peter We spent a great deal of Warland time in that church kneeling, apparently asking forgiveness for something that someone must have done ages before. I never did learn what it was my ancestors must have been up to but it must have been something pretty awful. I don’t recall now if we had to kneel in grammar school when we said the lord’s prayer in English, French, Latin and even German but, if we were under sixty-six inches high we still had to wear shorts and thus expose our scarred, school boys’ knees. Incidentally, the prayers that we said made little sense at all but it did occur to me that the Germans, who were threatening us with annihilation at that time, were begging the same deity to help them. The Catholic church even rejected my knees. We were in Rome, the eternal city and visiting the Vatican. My beloved was

keen on seeing the famous statues like La Pieta within the basilica of St Peter, so off she went. However, when I attempted to accompany her, I was rebuffed and expelled because of my shorts. I was beginning to think that the deities that we’d been told had created us didn’t favour the knee-job one iota. Anyway, I backed off and found a shadowy alcove and waited, contemplating what it was that offended the catholic church so much about my knobby knees when the Pontiff himself came out on to a balcony and waved. He even waved at me but it was difficult, because of the distance between us, to tell if he was being sarcastic or not. The people in charge of mosques found fault with my knees several times. We had a few peeks into mosques in Turkey but, each time I attempted to enter, I was given a sort of skirt to wrap about my naked legs and thus conceal them. But in Thailand I somehow got away with not wearing long pants. The Thais are mainly Therava Buddhists and were not offended by the knobbly knees of the visiting tourists who, I am told, are the principal source of cash in that country. We visited lots of Wats while we were there that Christmas and, because Buddhism is a philosophy, so I guess the natives are philosophic about foreigners poking about in their ruins and baring their naked and pallid patellas.

Reconciliation: A meaningful step
Re: Myths of the Highway of Tears (B.C. Views, Oct. 28). Tom Fletcher’s column triggered my memory of the dog whistle politics we saw in the recent federal election. The Highway of Tears is not a myth and using mythology in the title of that column is an insult to the hundreds of Aboriginal families who have lost loved ones as a result of many tragedies that have occurred on that road and across this country. The identity politics of the outgoing prime minister were properly rewarded, and the party that showed Stephen Harper the door at 24 Sussex Drive has promised an inquiry into the disproportionate number of murders and disappearances that
continue to occur in the Aboriginal population. It would be hoped that an inquiry will begin to expose the depth and colour of systemic issues inherent in Canadian institutions that help perpetuate these tragedies, and that the new federal government will commit to real solutions from its recommendations. The incoming prime minister has made further commitments to the 92 recommendations that came out of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) process. The TRC has helped many Canadians to understand the origins of deep-rooted problems faced by Aboriginal communities both on and off reserve, and to help them move Canadians individually and collectively to a reconciliation commitment. Those current and future problems
will always be about the quality of the relationship between the First Nations people and the general non-native population. Improving the transportation options for people in the North is primary, but it does not solve the systemic problems that continue to poison opportunities for everyone to work together to end the dysphoria that has dominated Aboriginal communities both on and off reserve. Reconciliation Canada (reconciliationcanada.ca) is a key agent of change in this space and is dedicated to building meaningful relationships where all Canadians achieve their full potential and shared prosperity. Getting informed is the first step. Stepping into this discourse is the next. I am stepping in. Carl Mashon Victoria

Courtroom drama with Nancy Drew
In
Mike Selby
the winter of 1978 the Minneapolis police found a shoeless 11-year-old girl walking aimlessly down a snowy road. A few hours earlier she had been walking home from school when a man kidnapped her at knifepoint, and threw in the trunk of his car. While he waiting for her parents to pay the ransom he demanded, the young victim unscrewed the bolts of the car’s taillights, popped the trunk and escaped. This courageous and remarkable girl stated she got the idea from a Nancy Drew book she had read. “She read something like 45 Nancy Drew books,” the police officer who found her told the press. “They seemed to have prepared her mind to deal with the situation and escape.” While this case would grab the headlines across the United States (and unfortunately become fodder from numerous made-for-tv mysteries), another court case revolving around Nancy Drew was about to begin. This one was a lawsuit over the literary rights to legendary girl detective; pitting Simon & Schuster against fellow publisher Grosset & Dunlap. Although it only took a federal court to five days to issue a ruling, all kinds of long-kept secrets were exposed, including the existence of a secretive syndicate. Nancy Drew herself needs no introduction. The teenage sleuth first appeared in the familiar yellow hardback in 1930s ‘The Secret of the Old Clock’ by Carolyn Keene. From then until 1979, Grosset & Dunlap published 56 mysteries, all written by Keene. From then onward Nancy Drew left the confines of hardcover print and burst into television shows, graphic novels, video games and feature films. She still regularly appears yellow hardback, and 80 million of them have been sold in dozens of
Mildred Benson surrounded by many of the books she has written. languages around the globe. What came out of the Schuster/Dunlap lawsuit was that the iconic girl detective was the brainchild of Edward Stratemeyer, a book packager who had found success with the Bobbsey Twins and the Hardy Boys book series. Part of his success was to have his books secretly ghostwritten, with ‘secretly’ being the key part of his business plan. Although each Hardy Boys books claims to be written by Franklin W. Dixon, no such person exists. Dixon is a pseudonym of a variety of ghostwriters, including Canadian journalist Leslie McFarlane. Each writer would be paid a one-time fee for their efforts, and sign a non-disclosure agreement about authorship. These beloved books of generations of readers were part of the Stratemeyer Marketing Syndicate, which was never to be revealed by any of its poorly paid and non-disclosing ghost writers. Edward Stratemeyer passed away in 1930, leaving the syndicate to his daughter Harriett Adams, who ran things much as her father did until 1979. By then it was clear that although Grosset & Dunlap made millions and millions from Nancy Drew, they refused to pay the standard graduated royalty rate
to the Stratemeyer Syndicate. After decades of this treatment, Adams handed over all rights to Simon & Schuster, who offered her a much more equitable deal. Grosset & Dunlap found all this to be unfair and sued, but they didn’t have much of a case. Although they were the publisher, Stratemeyer was the creator of Nancy Drew, and all intellectual property rights belonged to his daughter after his death. Drew’s author, Carolyn Keene, was also a pen name, with Harriet herself being the actual author of all original 56 books. The case appeared very open and shut, but then Grosset & Dunlop called a force of nature named Mildred Benson to the stand. “I am so sick of Nancy Drew I could just vomit,” Benson told the court. Mildred Benson was one of those irritating people who squeeze the maximum out of every single minute of life, and — then in her mid 80s — resented being subpoenaed to a courtroom. She told the court she was employed by the Toledo Blade as an investigative reporter for the past 58 years. She had also been an olympic-class swimmer, a political activist, a commercial pilot, an avid golf-
er and keen scuba diver. She also someone reluctantly admitted to writing 135 children’s books, including the first 23 Nancy Drew books. No one in the court gasped louder than Harriet Adams, who yelled “I wrote the books, I wrote the books” before fainting. Benson produced all the proof the court needed, outlines and contracts she had signed with Harriett’s father. There was even a document from Warner Brothers Pictures, who could not proceed with a 1938 film series of Nancy Drew without Benson’s consent. While this shifted the true identify of Carolyn Keene, it did little to help Grosset & Dunlap. On May 27th, 1980, the court found in favour of Simon & Schuster. It was also the day fans of the series began to credit Mildred Benson with creating their beloved character instead of Harriett Adams and her father, even though Adams still insisted she wrote the original books until her death in 1982. Benson would have been happy to let her have it, if she had not been called to testify under oath. She was incensed that a bunch of adults would be “spending their time and tremendous sums of money wasting their time tracking down her old books, when they could be out doing something instead of paying homage to a dusty relic like Nancy Drew.” “We have finally heard the last of Nancy Drew” Benson ended her speech to reporters as she exited the courtroom. She hoped to put in a round of gold before she swam some laps. Had she not been so busy, she would have caught the third season of ABC’s Emmy-winning ‘Hardy Boys/ Nancy Drew” on television.

Ice battle but fall to Wheat Kings, Thunderbirds Kootenay Ice claim overitme point Friday against Brandon before falling to Seattle Saturday
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
If playing back-toback games within a 19hour period wasn’t challenging enough, the Kootenay Ice faced two of the WHL’s toughest this weekend as the Brandon Wheat Kings and Seattle Thunderbirds visited Western Financial Place. The Ice managed one of a possible four points over the weekend set, falling to the Wheat Kings 3-2 in overtime Friday before dropping a 5-2 decision to the Thunderbirds Saturday afternoon. “We showed that we can play with those teams,” said Ice defenceman Bryan Allbee Saturday afternoon. “We took Brandon to overtime and I think we had a lot of chances to win that game as well. “[Saturday against Seattle], even though we lost, when we’re playing our game we can compete with those teams and that’s a pretty big positive to take out of it. We know we can do it, we’ve just got to play that way and find a way through 60 minutes.” Allbee was a catalyst for the offense Saturday, manufacturing the first goal of the game with a heavy point shot that was redirected by forward Austin Wellsby for a 1-0 Ice lead. Unfortunately for the home team, the Thunderbirds tallied five straight to take a commanding lead, before Allbee added a late power-play goal in the third period to make it a 5-2 final tally. A couple quick second period strikes from the Thunderbirds changed the complexion of the game and it was the visitor’s top line doing all the damage. Only 13 seconds into the middle period, forward Nolan Volcan went hard to the net and was rewarded, redirecting a point shot from defenceman Jared Hauf to give the Thunderbirds a 2-1 lead. Only 1:09 had ticked off the clock after Volcan’s marker before Mathew Barzal deflected another point shot past a helpless Wyatt
Hoflin and just like that, Seattle was out to a 3-1 lead early in the second period. “We had a five-minute lapse there, right at the beginning of [the second period],” Allbee said. “They capitalized early then we got back to what we were doing but for some reason, for three or four minutes there, we got back to bad habits. Good teams are going to capitalize on those chances. “We’ve got to find a way to play a full 60 [minutes]. That second period really hurt us.” Thunderbirds forward Ryan Gropp extended the lead to 4-1, ringing a hot shot off the iron and past Hoflin before the second period came to a close. Hoflin made 30 saves in the loss, while Flodell was good on 22 of 24. Perhaps the highlight of the weekend came towards the midway mark of the third period Saturday afternoon. With Seattle’s top line buzzing and moving the puck efficiently in the offensive zone, defenceman Turner Ottenbreit took a backdoor pass. Staring down an empty net with Hoflin swimming, the Thunderbirds blue-liner fired low along the ice, only to have Hoflin reach back and pull the puck off the goal line with the paddle of his stick. The effort from Hoflin will certainly stand as a save of the year candidate, and very well could take the cake. It electrified the 1,788 in attendance at Western Financial Place. It was tough sledding against a tough opponent on the heels of a hard-fought Friday night tilt with the Wheat Kings. “There are good parts and then there are parts that aren’t good,” said Luke Pierce, head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Saturday afternoon. “We have to take the things we didn’t like and learn from them. For our team, it’s understanding that you’ve got to know your body. “We looked tired. When that happens — and it’s going to happen over the course of the

Ice forward Max Patterson (#24) thinks he’s scored, but with Jared Legien (#19) piled on top of Thunderbirds goaltender Logan Flodell, the goal was disallowed due to incidental contact. Flodell and the Thunderbirds went on to a 5-2 victory Saturday afternoon at Western Financial Place. year — you have to adjust the way you play the game, be a little more basic and follow the plan that’s laid out because your brain isn’t going to react and think as quickly.” Friday night, the Wheat Kings used overtime to slip past the Ice. Ice winger Zak Zborosky was on the case once again, putting the first goal on the board for the home team before setting up the game-tying marker late in regulation. “Compared to the last time we played these guys, we’re a totally different team and we battled all night,” Zborosky said Friday. “We played these guys hard and, yeah, it would have been nice to get the win, but getting the one point is good.” After falling behind 2-1 late in the third period as Nolan Patrick put the visitors up with a power-play goal, Zborosky made a nice move in tight before slipping a beautiful feed to captain Luke Philp who roofed one up on over Wheat Kings goaltender Logan Thompson to tie the game 2-2 with only 1:39 on the clock, eventually forcing overtime. In the extra period, the two teams exchanged scoring oppor-
tunities before Wheat Kings captain John Quenneville skated in alone on Hoflin, beating the Ice netminder to claim the bonus point. “We had our chances to win it in overtime,” Pierce said Friday. “Unfortunately we didn’t. “We talked about wanting to push the pace more and I think that’s a good approach — go and attack. You’ve got to play to win. If you sit back and you’re afraid to lose the game, it’s going to hurt you. I thought we did a good job. We went after it tonight. We out chanced them in overtime, they just capitalized on theirs.” Wheat Kings forward Tyler Coulter opened the scoring in the first period. Hoflin made 29 saves, while Wheat Kings goaltender Logan Thompson turned aside 20 pucks. The Ice will get in a full week of practice before hosting the Medicine Hat Tigers Friday, Nov. 6 at Western Financial Place (7 p.m.).

Local fighter makes Muay Thai debut in Calgary Cranbrook’s Tyson Hirscher drops debut bout against Winnipeg’s Kevin McCarthey
For The Townsman
Cranbrook fighter Tyson Hirscher is not a new name in combat sports throughout the East Kootenay. Fighting out of Huncar’s Fighting Arts, Hirscher has been making waves in the west, making a name for himself locally, nationally and at the world level by winning gold at the WKC Kickboxing World Championships. Since winning gold at the WKC championships in 2014, Hirscher has decided to step up his career and begin fighting in the amateur ranks of Muay Thai. The Cranbrook fighter made his debut showing Saturday, Oct. 17, at the Journey Fight Series 13 show in Calgary, Alta., where he
took on Kevin McCarthey of Winnipeg, Man. The Journey Fight Series is one of Canada’s biggest Muay Thai venues, making it a special opportunity for Hirscher to be invited by promoter Trevor Smandych. Coming into the fight, Hirscher showed great composure considering he was considerably lighter than his opponent. McCarthey, who fights out of Ultimate Muay Thai in Winnipeg, was pushed back early in the bout, as Hirscher immediately went to work using a series of punches. Towards the end of the opening round, Hirscher took a hard left from McCarthey before receiving a flurry of hits that dropped him to the
mat, but didn’t keep him down. In the second round, McCarthey scored two knockdowns and the fight appeared over, but Hirscher continued to battle, weathering a further storm from his opponent. The third round brought the best from Hirscher as he kept his distance and set a frantic pace. The Cranbrook native landed some hard kicks, including a beautiful straight kick right up the middle that connected on McCarthey’s chin, followed by a swift and hard right hand punch. Though Hirscher’s heart won him the third round, it was not enough to claim the bout as he lost a unanimous decision to McCarthey.

Chiefs dismantle Lions in NFL’s last London outing of 2015 regular season Chris Lehourites Associated Press
LONDON - When Alex Smith had no options left, he ran. And he ran far. The Kansas City quarterback carried the ball five times and gained 78 yards, including a career-high 49-yard scramble in the second quarter that set up his 12-yard touchdown run. With a comfortable lead in hand, Smith settled into his usual role, throwing for 145 yards and a pair of touchdowns to lead the Chiefs to a 45-10 victory over the Detroit Lions at Wembley Stadium in the last of three regular-season NFL games in London. “We got a lot of guys with a lot of different strengths,” Smith said. “We can present a lot to a defence. It’s hard for them to defend.” De’Anthony Thomas,
Charcandrick West and Spencer Ware also rushed for touchdowns the first time the Chiefs had four different players rush for scores in the same game since 1960. Thomas ended up with 100 total yards, while West ran for 97. Travis Kelce and Jeremy Maclin caught the two TD passes in the second half. “Alex was putting the ball on the money today and Charcandrick was running north,” said Kelce, who had six receptions for 49 yards. The Chiefs (3-5) were at Wembley for the first time, while the Lions (1-7) played in London for the second straight season. The Lions were playing for the first time since offensive co-ordinator Jim Bob Cooter took over for the fired Joe Lombardi. And although the offence got moving on the opening possession, it stalled
horribly after that. Matthew Stafford threw for 217 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Calvin Johnson had 85 receiving yards, while Joique Bell ran for 56. But after the Lions took a 3-0 lead on 35-yard field goal from Matt Prater, Detroit was hapless with the ball. “Not a good outing, obviously. An understatement,” Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. “We ran the ball decently early on, but we reached the point where we wouldn’t be able to regain lost ground quickly enough to keep running.” The Kansas City pass rush posed huge problems for the Lions, and Stafford’s two interceptions resulted in 10 points going the other way. He was sacked six times, including on fourth-and-8 near midfield early in the fourth quarter trailing 31-3.
Smith also got tackled a few times, mainly because he was running effectively and picking up some key yardage. The quarterback helped set up the first touchdown by scrambling 8 yards for a first down. On the next play, Thomas ran in from the 10. At the start of the second quarter, Smith ran for a career-high 49 yards to open a drive. On third-and-10 from the 12, Smith scrambled into the left corner to make it 14-3. On the defensive side, Sean Smith and Justin Houston both picked off passes from Stafford. Smith’s interception resulted in a 33yard field goal from Cairo Santos. Houston’s pick set up West’s 8-yard TD run up the middle. NOTES: Attendance was 83,624, the smallest of the crowds at this year’s three regular-season games at Wembley.
Habs lose Kenyan runners sweep titles at New York City Marathon Price to injury R achel Cohen Associated Press
NEW YORK - Kenya’s Stanley Biwott and Mary Keitany swept the titles at the New York City Marathon on Sunday. Keitany became the first woman to repeat since Paula Radcliffe in 2008. Biwott won his first major marathon title after placing second in London last year. He finished in 2 hours, 10 minutes, 34 seconds, beating countryman Geoffrey Kamworor by 14 seconds. Reigning Boston Marathon winner Lelisa Desisa was third and defending champion was Wilson Kipsang fourth. Keitany finished in 2:24:25, beating Ethiopia’s Aselefech Mergia by 67 seconds for the largest margin of victory since Radcliffe’s 2008 title. She pulled away around the 21-mile mark to become the
eighth woman to win more than once in New York. Ethiopia’s Tigist Tufa took third. Keitany, a two-time London Marathon champ, had twice finished third in New York before breaking through last year when she won by just 3 seconds. That was her first marathon since 2012 because of the birth of her second child. Mergia is also coming back from a long break. Her daughter was born in July 2013 and she didn’t run another marathon until winning in Dubai in January. Laura Thweatt of the U.S. was seventh in her marathon debut. In the men’s race, 40-year-old American Meb Keflezighi, the 2009 champ, was also seventh. More than 50,000 runners are expected to finish the 45th running of NYC Marathon, completing the 26.2 miles through five boroughs.
Plan ahead. Check weather and road conditions, make sure your vehicle is winter ready and drive for the conditions. Know before you go.

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will be out at least a week with a lower-body injury. Canadiens coach Michel Therrien told reporters that Price suffered the injury in Montreal’s 4-3 loss in Edmonton on Thursday. Rookie Mike Condon will make a second consecutive start in the Canadiens’ home game Sunday against Winnipeg. The Habs have three more home games coming up. Ottawa is at Montreal Tuesday, followed by the New York Rangers on Thursday and archrival Boston on Saturday. Price is 7-2 with a 2.01 goals-against average this season for Montreal. The 25-year-old Condon is 3-0 with a 1.67 goals against average and a .944 save percentage. He backstopped Montreal to a 6-2 win in Calgary on Friday night.

Handcrafted Treasures & Tasty Treats
HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) A conversation points you in a new direction, which allows for more creativity and freedom. Tension builds only because you are set on achieving a certain result. Listen to constructive feedback, and allow your imagination to soar. Tonight: Don’t act like it is Monday night. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others won’t hesitate to give you feedback. Pay attention to which areas of your life are being discussed. Do you think that perhaps you need to make an adjustment to one or more of them? Emphasize security and long-term concerns. Tonight: Your home is your castle. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Keep reaching out to others, especially if you need some help or advice about an important decision. A different perspective will be useful. Listen carefully to the goings-on of others’ lives in the process. Don’t allow too much chaos to run through your day. Tonight: Visit with a pal.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have very different creative ideas from those of others. You also might note that your audience becomes more critical and smaller as the day goes on. Be expressive and authentic in a conversation with a younger person. Tonight: Do some early holiday shopping. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might resent someone close to you, who could be tripping you up. You seem to be able to accomplish what you want, and you’ll add your special finesse to whatever you do. Don’t be too invasive when trying to find out what’s wrong with a loved one. Tonight: All smiles. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll make a great effort to get past an issue that you might choose not to share. Perhaps you just are tired or feeling down. A partner is likely to trigger your imagination in order to help you see a situation more realistically. Tonight: Take some much-needed private time. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The emphasis is on success, but
Tundra
you’re only successful because you have taken the lead. A meeting could prove to be a hotbed of ideas that are great but costly. Play devil’s advocate. You might discover some intriguing ideas for how to gather more funds. Tonight: All smiles. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have done enough research to be able to take the lead in a project. Use caution in an important decision that could be costly or might not come to fruition quickly. A meeting is likely to point you in a new direction. Tonight: Count on hanging out till the wee hours. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Reach out to someone who is an expert in his or her chosen field. You’ll want to hear a different point of view and detach. You could be overthinking an issue or a conversation by replaying it over and over again in your mind. Tonight: Surf the Web. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be amazed by how strong someone else’s argument is. You are likely to agree with this person once you understand
his or her vision. Nevertheless, you still might want to test out his or her ideas on others. Trust yourself. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s plans. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You are able to gain a new perspective when speaking with others. Your immediate knee-jerk response could be off. A partner will invest a considerable amount of time trying to help you find the right path. Express your appreciation. Tonight: Check in on a friend. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others flood the airwaves with their caring ideas and suggestions. Focus on completing what you must, and don’t get distracted before you are done. Set aside time for meaningful conversations that are likely to touch you. Tonight: Exercise away your stress. BORN TODAY Gov. Scott Walker (1967), former U.S. President Warren G. Harding (1865), political commentator Pat Buchanan (1938) ***

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am a 60-year-old divorced male. I am decent looking, financially secure, have a lot of close friends, and am fun and interesting. Yet I haven’t dated in 25 years. Why? It is embarrassing to admit, but I feel inadequately endowed. My friends think I am just too picky, but I can’t tell them the truth. I would love to have a woman in my life to travel with and share all that I have to offer. I would treat her like an angel. I don’t want to go on spending my life alone. What can I do? -- Embarrassed Dear Embarrassed: We suspect many of the women in our reading audience will be writing to ask for your address because you sound like a gem. (Sorry, ladies, we don’t put readers in touch.) We won’t say, “Size doesn’t matter,” because we know you believe it does. But the majority of women are more interested in the rest of you. The secret to a great sex life is in the organ between your ears, and your willingness to please your partner. We guarantee there is a woman out there who will love you for your personality, your intelligence, your warmth and your kindness. But you won’t know until you put yourself out there. Tell your friends you are looking, and then check out church groups, volunteer groups and even online dating sites. Not every woman will be a keeper, but please don’t give up. Dear Annie: For my mother’s 80th birthday, my three siblings and I planned a catered dinner to celebrate. We agreed to split the cost four ways and updated each other frequently on the details. Mom chose the menu. Everything seemed to be going well. When we received the quote for the meal, I discovered that two of my siblings had made changes to the menu, including the amount of beef ordered and the type of chicken served. Also, the two of them decided the cost should be per person instead of an even split. This change seemed to be directed at me since I have the largest family. That was a month ago and I am still a little irritated. The extra money doesn’t bother me. What does is the hijacking of the party by my siblings without agreement from everyone else. Am I out of line? -- Still a Little Miffed Dear Miffed: Of course not. When siblings are paying for a joint celebration, all of the costs and details should be discussed and agreed to by everyone unless someone opts out. Perhaps your siblings thought you would balk at the idea of a perperson distribution, but if you have a much larger family, it would not be unreasonable to pay extra. Nonetheless, they should have discussed it with you ahead of time instead of making these decisions unilaterally. Let your siblings know that you expect more transparency next time and then please try to let it go. These types of things, while unpleasant, should not create a rift.

Edwin Roy Beduz
October 27, 1930 - October 23, 2015
It is with deep sadness and sorrow that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of our father Roy Beduz. Roy, born and raised in Kimberley, BC, began his career with Cominco and met his wife Joan at the Phosphate Mine, Cominco America, MT. Married on October 6th, 1956, they arrived in Yellowknife, NT in the dead of winter that year to start their lives together and eventually raise their two children, Judi and Brian, while Roy worked at Con Mine. Roy completed his Cominco career at Polaris Mine, Little Cornwallis Island, NU. His next career took Roy and Joan to the Queen Charlotte Islands, BC where Roy worked in the capacity of Maintenance Superintendent for the School District until his retirement. Roy and Joan spent their remaining years in Marysville, BC. Roy is predeceased by Joan, his wife of 59 years. He leaves behind his son Brian and his wife Lorraine, his daughter Judi (Cozzetto) and her husband Terry, his brother Louis and sister-in-law Meta, brother-in-law John Mollenberg, nieces and nephews, and his little canine companion Pepper. The interment will take place at the Kimberley Cemetery later this year. Forever loved and greatly missed. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

World Diabetes Awareness Month and Day Submitted
Awareness Month this November, The East Kootenay Foundation for Health is erecting a large blue circle on the roof above the ambulatory care entrance at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital. The blue circle is the universal symbol for diabetes and was the brainchild of Kari Rosenfeld of the International Diabetes Foundation (IDF) and her daughter Clare back in 2006, when the IDF was campaigning for United Nations Resolution on diabetes (which they received). The blue colour is meant to evoke the color of the sky, and the circle is a symbol of unity. The blue circle will be a new addition atop the roof at EKRH and is a result of a generous heart and donation from designer & builder, Dean Simpson of Reactive Welding in Cranbrook. The EKRH Starmakers leant a hand by adding the brilliant blue led lighting. The circle will be erected and lit on November 1 and continue through to the start of EKFH’s annual Starlite Campaign which launches on November 27. In addition to raising diabetes awareness on November 14 EKFH and the Cranbrook Diabetes Wellness Center will recognize the World Diabetes Day 2015 by hosting a GO BLUE FOR BREAKFAST event to be held
on November 14 (9:30 – 11:30 a.m.) at the Heritage Inn in Cranbrook. The event will specifically address the topic of healthy eating and its importance both in the prevention of type 2 diabetes and the effective management of diabetes to avoid complications. For a small ticket price attendees will enjoy a healthy diabetic breakfast, hear ideas from guest presenter Dr. Ross Dawson and nutritionist Catherine Strachan and have a chance to win a few door prizes. The latest estimates from the IDF Diabetes Atlas indicate that there are 382 million people living with diabetes worldwide. By 2035, 592 million people or one person in ten will have the disease. A further 316 million people are currently at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes, with the number expected to increase to almost 500 million within a generation. What makes the pandemic particularly menacing is that throughout much of the world, it remains hidden. Up to half of all people with diabetes globally remain undiagnosed. These facts and figures reiterate the importance of urgent action. Most cases of type 2 diabetes can be prevented and the serious complications of diabetes can be avoided through healthy lifestyles and living envi-

Special focus will be placed on the importance of starting the day with a healthy breakfast. The campaign will
continue to promote the importance of immediate action to protect the health and well-being of future generations and achieve meaningful outcomes for people with diabetes and those at risk. The key messages of the campaign include: • Make healthy food the easy choice • Healthy eating: make the right choice • Healthy eating begins with breakfast Tickets are $20 per
person and available from the Cranbrook Diabetic Wellness Center (20 23rd Ave S, Cranbrook) or at the Heritage Inn. Tickets must be picked up and paid for before November 5.

No extra sleep for you
B.C. petition calls for end to daylight savings time C a na d i a n Pr e ss
KAMLOOPS, B.C. Clocks in most of Canada will go back an hour early Sunday morning, but not everyone is pleased with the extra time for sleep. “People with sleep disorders don’t get an extra hour of sleep. They get an extra hour of laying there thinking about not sleeping,” says Tara Holmes. Holmes is one of two Kamloops, B.C., residents who have created
an online petition urging the provincial government to do away with daylight time, where clocks leap forward an hour in March and fall back in November. Daylight time has been a pet peeve for Bob Dieno, the petition’s co-founder, since university when he slept in on the day the clocks switched and missed the final exam in his chemistry class. The time change is
archaic and disruptive, Holmes argues, especially for people who have sensitive internal clocks, such as seniors and children. There are also studies, Holmes says, that have found an increase in workplace and road accidents in the weeks following time changes. “It’s crazy when you look at the impact this has,” she says. “There’s so many reasons that we shouldn’t do it but I don’t think there are

many reasons why we should.” Some parts of Canada don’t observe the time change, including almost all of Saskatchewan, which is on central standard time yearround. Other places the time change doesn’t apply include the northeastern corner of British Columbia, the town of Creston in B.C.’s East Kootenay region, three northwestern Ontario communities located in the Central Time Zone, the eastern reaches of Quebec’s North Shore, and Southampton Island in Nunavut. Abolishing daylight
time in B.C. would make the time uniform across the province year-round, Holmes argues. Originally, the pair had hoped to get 10,000 people to sign the petition within four months. However, more than 13,000 added their names in a matter of weeks. Now they are aiming to get more than 15,000 signatures before presenting the petition to the government. Holmes says she’s happy people are having a conversation about daylight time, even if politicians don’t make the change.

Air SAR conducts training exercise F O R T H E TOW N S M A N
Cranbrook Air Search and Rescue took part in a training exercise last week, using the complete range of activities that would normally take place during a search for a missing aircraft. The October 27 exercise simulated thesearch for a four-seat Cessna 172, with one pilot and passenger, that went missing on a flight from Calgary to Cranbrook, assuming a crash in a field several miles north of the Cranbrook Airport. The simulation included conducting an initial visual and electronic search through to SARTechs (Search and Rescue Technicians) and parachuting to the crash site. The crew of a Hercules search aircraft, under the watchful eye of Check Pilot Stephen McAlpine, were provided with details of the missing aircraft and picked up several spotters at the Canadian Rockies International Airport. The spotters, volunteers with Cranbrook PEP Air (Provincial Emergency Program), rotated through 20 minute shifts with the military SARTechs at the very large spotting window of the “Herc” while the aircraft conducted a close contour search flying along the western front of the Rockies near Top of the World Provincial Park. The simulation continued with the crew picking up the radio signal from an ELT (Electronic Locator Transmitter) that automatically transmits a radio signal when an aircraft crashes. For the scenario an ELT operating on the training frequency was used. The electronic radio-direction-finder search led the search aircraft to an area where the spotters noted debris matching the colour of the missing aircraft. Two individuals were seen on the ground near the debris but no radio or cellphone contact could be established with them. The Hercules aircraft then made a low level pass (50 metres above ground level) and dropped a portable 2-way radio that landed
seven metres from two injured individuals near the wreckage; a real testament to the crew expertise in an aircraft travelling in excess of 200 kph. Radio contact was established and it was confirmed that the two individuals were the object of the search and had suffered broken bones. As part of the simulation it was determined that neither a Cormorant helicopter nor land ambulance was immediately available to attend to the injured so the SARTechs, working closely with the cockpit crew, parachuted to the crash site landing very close to the aircraft debris. The two “survivors” of the simulated crash, Nick Bedwell (SAR Manager and Training O f f i c e r- C ra n b ro o k Ground Search & Rescue) and Brian Weeks of PEP Air, then returned the two SARTechs to the airport where the Hercules was waiting. Allister Pedersen Cranbrook PEP Air Training Officer coordinated the exercise with Cranbrook Ground SAR and the military search crew from 435 Transport & Rescue Squadron. Louise Shynuk, Dan Shynuk and Grant Tulloch (PEP Air Spotters) received military spotter training from the SARTechs to maintain their standing as certified and current spotters on military aircraft such as the Hercules or Buffalo aircraft either here in Cranbrook or anywhere across Canada. After receiving his spotter training update in the cargo bay Allister was requested to go to the cockpit to coordinate the simulation with the check pilot. “Even though it was a tremendous opportunity to spend time in the cockpit I realized it would be almost as interesting to see the cargo bay door opened for the SARTech jump or to be on the ground,” Pederson said. As intended, the exercise provided experience for the spotters on a different type of aircraft and provided the military and Ground SAR with valuable experience in order “That Others May Live”.
