Warman fraud artist facing more charges A Warman man under investigation for fraud and theft is now facing additional charges. Trevor Payne, 27, was arrested last month in connection with fraudulent advertisements posted on Kijiiji. Payne was advertising an acreage for sublet and/or rent while he was in the eviction process by the landlord of the property. As a result of the ongoing investigation into the case by the General Investigation Section of the Warman RCMP additional evidence has been uncovered. Additional victims and

witnesses have come forward and Payne will be facing additional charges during his next court appearance in Saskatoon Provincial Court. Payne last appeared in court on September 19th, 2011 and was remanded in custody for a bail hearing on October 3rd, 2011. The acreage being advertised by Payne is located in the RM of Corman Park, northeast of Saskatoon on the East side of the Highway #11, and is the site of an old Dairy farm. According to Warman RCMP Constable David Van-

ghel, the landlord who owns the acreage has since taken inventory of the property and reported several items that have been stolen from the farm. The items were in the barn and used in conjunction with the dairy farm when it was last in operation. It is believed that Payne also advertised these items on Kijiji. The Warman RCMP is asking for the public s assistance in getting these items returned to the owner. Persons with information that may lead to any information are urged to call either the Warman Detachment of

the RCMP at (306) 975-1670 or if you wish to remain anonymous, Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, *8477 on Sask-Tel Mobility, text TIP206 plus your tip to CRIMES (274637) or online at www.saskcrimestoppers.com Trevor Payne is already charged with the fraud, theft under $5,000, four counts of false pretences, and four counts of failing to comply with a Judge s Recognizance. He is now facing another charge of fraud and an additional charge of failure to comply with a a judge s recognizance.

AFFINITY DONATES TO DALMENY CARE HOME A cheque for $3,686.00 was presented to Spruce Manor Care Home Board Chair Carl Redekop from Afﬁnity Credit Union in Dalmeny by Gerry Wild, Diane Tracksell and Evelyn Kasahoff. The fundraising efforts have helped pay for several ceiling track lifts, which improve the quality of life for residents in many ways.

Three-vehicle crash on Highway 11 results in several injuries South entrance to Warman one of several risky intersections along Highway 11, say RCMP By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

At least seven people, including four children and one teenager, were injured in a three-vehicle collision at the south entrance to Warman on Highway 11 on Tuesday, September 27. The accident occurred about 4:15 in the afternoon. According to George Peters of Warman, who witnessed the accident, an eastbound white Ford cargo van crossed the centre median into the northbound lanes of Highway 11, where it was hit by a black Honda CRV. The Honda was then hit on the passenger side by a black half-ton truck, and all three vehicles ended up on the east shoulder of the road. The truck, which had Ontario license plates, ﬂipped over onto its passenger side. I was heading westbound and was waiting in the median at the intersection to cross the south-bound lanes, said Peters. The van was going the other way. I saw the van pull out and then I heard a bang. I looked in my mirror and saw the truck ﬂip over. Another witness called 911. Warman RCMP, Warman First Responders, Warman Fire Department and MD Ambulance were dispatched and on the scene within minutes. Constable Dean Flaman

COLLISION AT RISKY INTERSECTION At least seven people were hospitalized following a serious 3-car collision on Highway 11 at the intersection with the south entrance to Warman. Among the injured were four children who had been picked up from school in Warman.

of the Warman RCMP said in an interview at the scene of the crash that the collision is still under investigation, so the cause of the accident has not yet been conﬁrmed. But he said that between 7 and 8 people were injured

and were transported to hospital. He noted that none of the injuries appeared to be life-threatening. Flaman said that four of the injured were children, who were apparently leaving Warman after being picked

up from school. The driver of the van was a teenage female. The good news is that there were no fatalities, Flaman said. But this is deﬁnitely a dangerous intersection, especially at this time of day, when there is a lot of trafﬁc

heading out from the city. Flaman said the Warman RCMP detachment had set up a stop sign check at the intersection the day before to reduce stop sign violations. And here we are today back at the same intersec-

tion, he said. This is deﬁnitely a risky intersection and we re out here to make sure people are obeying those stop signs and yield signs, and crossing safely. We ll continue to do that, because clearly it has to be done.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 2011 • PG. 6

Brainy idea to put on a skid lid It just makes sense. A unique program implemented several years ago by the Warman Fire Department encourages children and youth to wear helmets while riding bicycles, skateboarding and roller-blading. The program rewards children and youth who are spotted wearing a helmet with gift coupons from a local business. Members of the Warman Fire Department give out the coupons to the kids, providing them with a tangible reward for doing the right thing. At the end of the summer, larger prizes including bicycles and helmets, are also given out by the department. Lieutenant Marlin Wall of the Warman Fire Department says the objective of the program is to promote helmet safety, not just for kids, but for everyone. He says brain injuries are devastating, and prevention is the only way to realistically deal with the problem. The Bicycle Helmet Safety Program was started 7 years ago in Warman, and its success is best measured by what you don t see. You don t see an ambulance or First Responder truck at an intersection where a youngster on a skateboard miscalculated the jump from the pavement to the sidewalk, lost his or her balance and ended up taking a serious fall. If the youth had a helmet on, the worst he or she would have to deal with are a couple of scraped knees or elbows, and maybe a slight wound to their pride. You don t see a worried mother hanging up the phone after getting a call that her child has been rushed to hospital. You don t see a young person - and their family - struggling for years to overcome a brain injury that resulted from the trauma of their skull striking the pavement. It s a proven fact that wearing a bike helmet reduces the risk of injury and death. Cycling is a reasonably safe activity that millions of us enjoy, but each year in Saskatchewan a few cyclists die after a crash or a collision. Most die because of head injuries. Many more cyclists suffer permanent brain injury, often radically changing their personality and their capacity to operate in the world as before. Even experienced cyclists sometimes fall off their bikes. It is hard to prepare for a fall and it is easy enough to hit your head on the ground. If you are wearing a helmet, you will usually get up, brush yourself off and get on with your day. If you are not wearing a helmet, you could be knocked out or worse. It takes only a couple of minutes to strap on a bike helmet. If you do it often enough, it s like strapping on your seatbelt when you get into a vehicle. It becomes automatic and natural. Wearing a bike helmet increases your chances of surviving a fall or a crash or a collision. We all like better odds, so wear a bike helmet every time.

First Nations issues not so different Rural Saskatchewan people and First Nations people have often found themselves at odds, although it s not as bad as it used to be. The first time I explored this issue in depth was for a book entitled Writing off the Rural West. My chapter was called Uneasy Neighbours that explored the sometimes-difficult relationship between the two sides. In that book chapter I explored how relationships are often stronger in communities where First Nations and white communities are economically independent in communities. (Prince Albert and Meadow Lake come to mind.) But I also explored how difficult this relationship can be and cited the town of Punnichy next to the Gordon First Nations. One homeowner told me that in Punnichy at the time, homeowners would often buy cheap houses around them just to tear them down to prevent Sask. Housing from purchasing them and renting them to Indian families. Since the writing of that book, it s likely fair to say that even more progress has been made, although progress has often been slow. More and more economic participation by First Nations in local communities has meant more co-operation and better relations. One example I can remember writing about in the past decade involved the Thunderchild band need Turtleford where both sides became active participants in the hospital. Another example that has struck me in recent years is the entries in the Saskatchewan Municipal Awards that see local communities and First Nations jointly working co-operatively. But what has struck me of late is how problems of First Nations and rural communities tend to be common ones. And this thought really crossed my mind last week when about a thousand First Nation s people marched down Regina s Albert Street in a day of protest against the provincial government. Admittedly, I m rather skeptical of most legislative protests and especially this one. That it was organized about the time the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations (FSIN) was taking heat for dumping former grand chief Guy Lonechild, despite a court ruling suggesting they couldn t

do that. It was a bit too much for this old cynic. Add to the fact that I ve seen all too many protests at the legislature over the years demanding more support for agriculture, a lack of health and education funding, less interference in local government issues, less taxation and more equitable resource sharing. But it s also about here where it struck me that rural folks from the local farms, villages, towns and small cities and First Nations folks from the reserves, villages, towns and small cities may have a lot more in common than they recognize. For example, for years rural folks have made the point that the oil, natural gas and potash is produced right under their feet and that hat should

entitle them to a fair share of royalties so they can ﬁ x the roads or keep their schools and hospitals open. Interestingly, this was also one of the major themes behind the First Nations protest march in Regina, albeit with added dimension of treaty rights. First Nations argue the original treaties they signed 140 years ago with the new white federal government (remember, this was the northwest territory and Saskatchewan wouldn t become to be a province for another 30-plus years) talked about sharing the land to the depth of a plough shear . First Nations say his means that they never gave up the right to natural resources buried much deeper. Or at least, they view this as grounds for a bigger share. And while some might rightly view this is a specious argument, it s quite similar to the argument rural communities make for a bigger share of the natural resource pie. So perhaps we re all not so different. Perhaps our biggest challenge right now is recognizing our similarities.

Shortline railway to Speers receives funds The Government of Saskatchewan announced September 22 it has approved $3 million for the North Central Rail Line Ltd. (NCR) under the guidelines of the Community Development Trust Fund (CDTF) in Meadow Lake. This is an excellent development that will support our mills and hundreds of jobs in our communities, Enterprise Minister Jeremy Harrison said. Improving the rail transportation system will make sure we can continue to deliver our products to markets around the world and make sure our economy in Northwest

Saskatchewan continues to move forward. The funding will be used by the NCR to assist with the improvements and maintenance of the rail line pending the purchase of the Meadow Lake to Speers rail line from the Carlton Trail Railway Company (CTR). The Meadow Lake to Speers rail line will make transporting products to the main CPR rail line more cost-effective. Once the ownership transaction of the rail line is completed, refurbishment will be our number one priority, North Central Rail Line Ltd. Chairperson Ray Wilﬁng said. This funding, with oth-

er funding sources, will help to ensure that the necessary improvements can be made to the rail line. NCR was established in 2008 with the support of the 55 West Enterprise Region and the North Central Transportation Planning Committee - Rail Subcommittee, to negotiate the rail line s purchase after papers were ﬁled by the CTR to ofﬁcially discontinue the line. This project is a great example of what we can accomplish when we work together to keep Saskatchewan moving forward, Harrison said.

CRIMESTOPPERS REPORT

Cst. Jennifer Armstrong, Martensville RCMP (306) 975-1610

Break-ins, vandalism in Martensville The Martensville RCMP are asking for the public s assistance with the following: On September 27th and 28th between the hours of 10:00 PM and 6:30 AM, a grey Chevrolet truck was stolen from the 600 block of Reddekopp Drive. The suspects are believed to also be responsible for stealing a cooler of alcohol from a truck on Bendel Crescent, as well as committing mischief to a car on Bendel Crescent. The truck along with the empty cooler, were located at a business on 51st Street in Saskatoon. Sometime between 5:00 PM on September 26, 2011 and 7:00 AM on September 27, 2011 an unknown person slashed a tire on a vehicle parked on 1st Avenue North in Martensville. Between the hours of 11:30 PM on September 25th and 8:15 AM on September 26th, 2011, rocks were thrown at the front window of a residence located in the 900 block of Manor Heights. The window broken as a result. Another residence located in the same vicinity also had a rock thrown through a window at approximately 2:30 AM. On September 18th sometime between the hours of midnight and 7:00 AM, a beige colored Dodge truck was stolen from a residence in the 300 block of 1st Street South. The truck was driven through

the MacCormack Ranch area, where it is believed the truck was driving erratically, causing skid marks and damage to the roadways and sidewalks. The truck was then driven to the Lions park, where it was involved in a roll over. There was extensive damage caused to the grass in the park, and the truck. If anyone was a witness to these events, or may have any information regarding these events please contact the Martensville RCMP.

Warning signs at construction sites there for a reason, say police By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

major construction project at the intersection of Highway 7 and the entrance to the Agrium potash mine southwest of Saskatoon will vastly improve traffic flow when it s completed in a few weeks time. But in the meantime, drivers need to slow down and pay attention, says Glenn Thomson of the RM of Vanscoy Police Service. This is a very large construction project, with a lot of equipment and crews working long hours, Thomson explained in an interview at the site on September 27. It s probably one of the bestmarked construction zones in the province, but for some reason, many drivers aren t slowing down. The construction site takes in a 3.5 kilometer stretch of Highway 7 west of Vanscoy, and involves widening the 2-lane highway to 6 lanes at the intersection to allow for turning lanes in both directions. Construction began about a month ago and is expected to be completed by the end of October if the weather holds. The project, designed to accommodate increased traffic as a result of the expansion of the Agrium mine, is being undertaken jointly by Agrium, PCL and the Ministry of Highways. There has already been one accident at the site. And that s one too many, says Thomson. When you go through a construction site, you re required to slow to 60 kilometers per hour if people or equipment are working on the roadway or adjacent to the roadway, said Thomson. On a two-lane highway like Highway 7, traffic in both directions is required to slow down in a marked construction zone, he explained. On a divided highway, only the traffic on the lanes where work is being done are re-

quired to slow down. The rules are the same for passing construction zones, police and emergency vehicles and tow trucks on roadways, said Thomson. It s 60 kilometers per hour. Fines for speeding violations in construction zones are hefty and based on a sliding scale. If you go through a construction zone at 100 kilomters an hour, the fine would be about $380, and it goes up quickly depending on how fast you re going, explained Thomson. He added that it is sometimes difficult for drivers to know if crews are working at a site because they may not always be visible. There may be a crew working in a ditch digging a hole for a culvert, for example, he said. Or there may be a surveyor working anywhere along the site, and he could be a long way away from his vehicle. Thomson said there are roughly 250 large reflective warning cones placed along the highway marking a sharp drop-off where the new roadbed is being constructed. It s about a two and a half or three foot drop, and if your vehicle hits that it will roll for sure, and then we have a very serious accident situation, said Thomson. The roadway at the construction site is quite narrow, so drivers in both directions must be vigilant when passing through that section, he said, adding too many drivers not only speed, but are also talking on their cell phones or texting. Anytime you re talking on the phone you re not paying attention, he said. And accidents are almost always

Three steps forward, but how many backwards? There wasn t much sense trying to provide Saskatoon Blades assistant coach Dave Struch with any consolation following Saturday s 6-0 loss in Brandon. The only problem with that is that there s a lot of guys on this team that were here for that loss (last year) and the same thing happened this time, an exasperated Struch explained when it was mentioned to him that the Bridge City Bunch absorbed a 7-0 whipping at the hands of the Wheat Kings at Westman Communications Group Place, almost one year prior to the day, before going on to 56-13-3 log. That was one of the biggest chicken-(pause) efforts I ve seen as a Blade (player), as an assistant coach. I was embarrassed for the organization and I was embarrassed for the players. The disappointment was exacerbated by the fact Saskatoon rallied from a 2-1 deﬁcit after two periods the night before for a gritty, hardfought 4-2 victory over the Red Deer Rebels at Credit Union Centre. (From) the drop of the puck, we weren t ready for anything, said Struch. You could see it when we were try-

ing to create any type of offence. There was no grit, there was no drive, there was no edge. Any time there was going to be any type of confrontation, we wanted no part of

The Bridge City Bunch moved up 30 places in the C.H.L.

They used that pick to take 18-year-old Russian goaltender Andrey Makarov. Makarov was a key to Saskatoon s come-from-behind victory last Friday over Red Deer at Credit Union Centre… stopping all 12 shots he faced in the third period and blocking 31 of 33 drives overall in the 4-2 triumph. Makarov played last season in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League with the Lewiston MAINEiacs and has won both of his starts, showing that last year s experience was beneﬁcial to him!

Aberdeen Crusaders come up short against Longhorns By PAT PECKOVER peckpatr@uregina.ca

he Aberdeen Crusaders hosted the Rosthern Longhorns in a nineman football Conference 1 game on September 29, but Rosthern controlled the game both offensively and defensively, coming off the ﬁeld with a 76-38 victory and a 4-0 record. Rosthern set the pace for the game when they ended their ﬁrst drive with a 55yard run for a touchdown. They continued to batter the Crusader defence, scoring two more touchdowns before Aberdeen put together an offensive drive of their own. Thanks to the quick feet of

Crusader quarterback Dylan Fehr, and some nice catches by his receiving corps, Aberdeen got to within 10 yards of Rosthern s end zone before giving up the ball on downs. The first quarter ended with the Longhorns up 22-0. Rosthern kept the momentum going in the second quarter, scoring a touchdown on their first drive. Aberdeen showed some more offensive spark on their next possession, when they finally scored a touchdown. Fehr had run the ball in for a touchdown, but the play was called back as his knee had gone down before the line. On the next play, the Crusaders

put six on the scoreboard to make it a 36-8 game. The Longhorns took control of the ball after that and scored two more touchdowns before the quarter ended, leading 60-8 at the half. Rosthern continued their offensive dominance in the second half, scoring one more touchdown in the third quarter. Aberdeen got their ﬁrst and only quarterback sack on the Longhorns in the third quarter, but couldn t capitalize on any drives. The Longhorns were up 68-8 at the end of the quarter. Rosthern started the fourth quarter with another touchdown, but then Aberdeen seemed to ﬁnd a

way to gain yards. The Crusaders started throwing long, deep passes to their receivers, who started catching them, and turning those long distance gains into touchdowns. Aberdeen also used a couple of short kicks after touchdowns to regain possession of the ball and set up the long pass again. The home score increased from 76-22, to 76-30, to 7638. That s where the score stood when the ﬁnal buzzer sounded. Rosthern came out ready to play, said coach Tim Epp after the game. This was likely the game which would determine ﬁrst place in the conference, he

well, Aberdeen had problems hanging onto the ball, with several passes dropped by the receivers. Aberdeen coach Trevor Ethier said that overall, it was not a good performance by his team. Rosthern came out and played very well, he said. They beat us all over the ﬁeld. The Crusaders were expecting a tough game, as both teams had 3-0 records going into the game, Ethier noted. We knew they would be very good, but we just didn t answer the bell, he stated. Aberdeen heads to Hague on Thursday, October 6 and will be at home against PACI on Thursday, October 13.

explained. We wanted to make sure it was us in the number one spot. Epp praised the Aberdeen team for their determination and hard work. This was the toughest team we ve seen all year, he said. They ve got some big fellas and some good players. They really challenged our players. In the second half, Rosthern used their second string extensively, giving them playing time against a tough team, explained Epp. Throughout the game, the Crusaders tried to use deception and deceit on the Rosthern defenders, but very few of the plays worked.

Delisle Rebels down Kindersley Kobras By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Delisle Rebels extended their season s unbeaten streak to ﬁve games, downing the Kindersley Kobras 89-0 in Kindersley last Friday. And according to Rebels coach Ken Byers, this team is the most self-motivated group of players he s ever coached. I ve been coaching for 15 years in football and wrestling, said Byers in an interview October 3. And this is a very special team. I ve never seen a group of kids so motivated. Byers said the team s ultimate goal is the provincial title this year. The boys did so much on their own in the offseason, he explained. Basically all we had to do was open up the gates of the corral and let them out. They really want to bounce back from their second place ﬁnish last fall, and go all the way this year.

They also want to beat the record set by the 2004 Rebels, which scored 397 points while allowing only 33 points against. So far, this current edition of the team has racked up 358 points while allowing only 1 point against. With two games left to go, that record has a good chance of being shattered. Byers said the team has inserted junior players into the game in the second half. We ve been doing our best to be respectful of our opponents, he said. We re not trying to run up the score, He added the junior players also have beneﬁted from the team s post-season runs in the past several years. When you have a 6-week sesaon, adding another four weeks really makes a difference, he said. All that experience means that by the time the junior players reach the senior ranks, they

have a lot of games already under their belts. DELISLE UNSTOPPABLE In the game in Kindersley, Delisle quarterback Jaden Wood-Sparrow completed 8 passes for a total of 136 yards and accounted for 2 touchdowns during the game. The Rebels were also successful on the ground, with Justin Price racking up 199 yards while scoring 4 touchdowns. Des Vessey had 84 yards rushing and 2 touchdowns. Logan Frohaug had 198 yards on 4 carries on punt and kickoff returns, and another 68 yards rushing, scoring 3 touchdowns. Jeff Shirley, Kolton McKenzie, and Tanner Olson each added touchdowns. Defensively, Brayden Knackstedt and Dakota Nebozenko accounted for 5 tackles each. The Rebels lead their con-

ference with 10 points. The win also improves the team s alltime record, since it began in 1998, to 103 wins, 20 losses and 1 tie. NIGHT GAME OCTOBER 6 The Rebels put their current year s unbeaten streak on the line on Thursday, October 6 when they host the Martensville Royals under the lights for a rare night game. Game time is 7:00 p.m. It s one of the highlights of the season for the whole community, said Byers. We re hoping to get a good crowd out. This will be the ﬁfth time this season we ve faced Martensville, so it should be a good game.

Sask Prairie Hockey League doubles in size with addition of 4 teams By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Drawing up the season schedule for the Saskatchewan Prairie Hockey League (SPHL) just got a whole lot more complicated. The senior hockey league is expanding from four teams to eight as it gets set to launch its second season, and will likely go to two divisions, according to Troy Rookes, manager of the Radisson Wheat Kings. We have the original four teams all confirmed that they ll be back this coming season, explained Rookes in an interview September 30. There are also four new teams: the Perdue Pirates, Hafford Mustangs, Cut Knife Colts and Glaslyn North Stars. The league also includes the Maymont Settlers, which captured the league s first-ever championship last seaon, the Radisson Wheat Kings, Battleford Beavers and Saulteaux 3-Stars. The league held its first scheduling meeting on September 28, and according to Rookes, a decision was made

to create two divisions as a way of reducing travel costs for teams. The east division will include Hafford, Radisson, Perdue and Maymont, he said. The west division will be made up of Glaslyn, Saulteaux, Battleford and Cut Knife. Each team will play its divisional rivals three times, while playing home-andhome series against teams in the other division. It amounts to a 17-game schedule, with most of the games slated for the second half of the season because about half the communities rely on natural ice. He said doubling the size of the league was a little unexpected, but suggested the philosophy of the league is sttriking a chord with communiites that ﬁnd it difﬁcult to ice a competitive team in leagues where elite players sell themselves to the highest bidder. We don t pay players, Rookes said. That s one of the reasons the league got started. A new rule has also been implemented in the SPHL regarding poaching players,

he added. It s similar to the NHL rules, Rookes said. If a player wants to move to another team, he needs to get permission - a waiver - from the team he played for last season. If he gets a waiver, he can move. If he doesn t get a

waiver, then he can t play in the league that year. But the next season, he can play for any team he wants to. On the other hand, if the team refuses to grant a waiver, then that team loses a roster spot for the coming season. So in effect, there are

10 new players this year, so I think we ll be in good shape and maybe even a little better this season. The full schedule for the SPHL, as well as game results, can be found by logging on to the league website at www. sphl.hockeyleaguestats.com/

Chiefs get the scoring touch back after dropping first couple games By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

It s back to basics for the Delisle Chiefs. After narrowly losing their two opening games of the Prairie Junior Hockey League regular season, the Chiefs are looking to kickstart their offense by driving the net, skating hard, and winning the battles along the boards. We do have a very fast team that can play a ﬁnesse game and cycle the puck, said Chiefs Coach Dave Norris. But if it s not going in then we need to shoot more and drive the net harder. The Chiefs were edged 5-4 by the Saskatoon Royals on Friday, September 30 at Harold Latrace Arena. Despite plenty of power-play chances, and even though they out-shot the Royals 3529, the Delisle squad had trouble getting the puck past Royals goaltender Jay Hudon. They dropped their season opener to the Saskatoon Quakers 5-3 earlier that week. It s been a frustrating start to the regular season for a team that did so well in the pre-season, conceded Norris. We really didn t give it our best effort against the Royals, he said after the game. We couldn t get our power play scoring. I think tempo-wise, we took it to them and forced them to take a lot of penalites, but we just couldn t capitalize on those opportunities. The Chiefs power play started sputtering early in

the opening frame. I think we had 8 or 10 minutes of power play time in the first period, and if we could have picekd up one or two goals, it would have got us going in the right direction, said Norris. As it was, the Royals built up a 3-0 lead, and it GAZETTE PHOTO BY TERRY PUGH wasn t until midway Delisle Chiefs forward Dustin Wlaz tries unsuccessfully to get the puck through the secpast Royals goalie Jay Hudon. ond period that the Chiefs got on the scoreboard with two quick goals by Eric Ditto and Paul Frecon. But the Royals added a couple more markers of their own to restore the three-goal margin. The Chiefs picked up the pace in the final frame as Justin Kerr and Dustin Wlaz tallied to make it 5-4, but they were unable to pull goaltender Cam Irwin in the final minute. We clawed our way back toward the end of the game, but when we needed that final push, we just couldn t make it happen, said Norris. It s just the way the game went. But eventually, it will start going our way and we ll start getting the bounces. We re just going to go back to the basics and skate hard and hit guys and drive the net and get a lot of shots. CHIEFS DOWN RAGE The Delisle Chiefs got back on track in the scoring department on Saturday, October 1, recording an 8-1 win over the West Central Rage in Kerrobert. The win not only re-

stored some conﬁdence to the team, it also helped propel two of the team s veterans into the scoring lead for the PJHL. As of Monday, October 3, Eric Ditto and Justin Kerr were tied for the league lead, with 7 points each. Andrew Cribbs of the Quakers was third with 6 points, followed by Michael Pylypow of the Royals with 5

points. Three Chiefs including Russ Scheider, Dustin Wlaz and Stacey Campbell were tied with the Royals Kyle Jones and Murray Ruether for fourth spot, each with 4 points. The Delisle Chiefs next game is their home opener at the Delisle arena on Saturday, October 15. Game time is 8:00 p.m. They play the Royals at Harold Latrace Arena in Sskatoon on Sunday, October 16 at 7:45 p.m.

The Hague Panthers are on a roll. The team improved their season record to 2-2 after beating Prince Albert Collegiate Institute (PACI) by a score of 66-14 on Thursday, September 29 in Prince Albert. It was the second win in as many games during a short week for the Panthers. They beat Birch Hills 44-7 on Monday, September 26. Hague coach Tom Mufford said the team got off to a flying start. Travis Fehr started the game by stripping the ball from the opposing player when we kicked off, and he took it all the way for a touchdown, said Mufford. Then we kicked off again. They got the ball on about the ten and we sacked them in the end zone for a safety. They kicked to us, Mark Loewen scored on our first play. Mufford said there werefive kickoffs in the first minute. That kind of sums it up,

he said. Every player on our team got some playing time. The Panthers Jared Loewen got one touchdown, Luke Guenter recorded 3 majors, and Justin Fehr added 2 touchdowns, including one off a punt return. Justin Fehr was named the Subway Panthers Player of the Game. Mufford said the win was all the more impressive because several players, including Adam Wagner, Kevin Loewen, Brett Buller, Dustin Huchkowsky, Brent Gossen, Owen Hubbard, and Sean Unger, all went in at postitions they had never played before. Some had never even practised at those positions, said Mufford. He added that on the defensive side of the ball, Jon Fehr played a solid game, having a hand on most of the tackles. He said Adam Friesen and Brett Nolin were stellar in the secondary. Jared Loewen also had 2 sacks, concluded Mufford. The Panthers next game is Thursday, October 6, when they host the visiting Aberdeen Crusaders. Game time is 4:00 p.m.

cipient of this pass was Kyle Jones, who, despite being well covered, was able to catch the ball and break free for a TD. The Comets added to their lead at 10:26 of the 4th quarter with a 70 yard run by RB Cam Shiels. These were followed by Comet touchdowns on a run, a pass, and a kick return. Warman also gave up a 2 point safety which resulted in the 56-20 score. Warman coach Tyler Scheidt stated that he couldn t fault the effort of the team as they battled hard. He added that they just didn t have the depth. Warman s next game is against Humboldt on Friday, Ocober 7 at Warman s Neufeld Field. Game time is 4:00 p.m.

Warman s HIgh School football team travelled to Melfort to take on the Comets on Friday, September 30. The final score of 56-20 doesn t reflect the whole story of the game as an injurydepleted Wolverines squad played a very competitive game before running out of gas in the 4th quarter. Melfort took a first quarter lead on a long run by Cain Grisdale. Warman defence kept the game close by stopping the Comets twice on third down gambles deep in Warman territory. Warman continued to have momentum when Chris Arthur blocked a Comet punt, giving Warman possession of the ball in Melfort territory. This led to a pass and run TD by Warman receiver Spencer Ulrich. With 2:26 left in the half Melfort responded with a long TD pass to receiver Curtis Puetz. On Warman s next possession an errant shotgun

snap had Warman pinned on their 1 yard line. An Anthony Hallborg pass out of the end zone was picked off by the Comet s Justin Wehrkamp and returned for a TD at 1:53. The determination of the Warman squad was best exhibited on their next drive as QB Logan Misskey marched the team down the ﬁeld with a couple long runs, and a pass to his brother, Josh Misskey. With 27 seconds left, he connected with a pass to receiver Spencer Ulrich. Warman continued their strong play into the second half and at 7:49 of the third quarter Warman moved to within one point of the Comets after Logan Misskey used his elusiveness and speed on a 65 yard TD run and then topped this off with a two point convert run. A real turning point of the game came with 1:56 left in the 3rd quarter when Comet QB Brett LeCuyer was able to get a long pass away while under tremendous pressure by Warman s Tyler McKimmon and Clint Penner.

Burgess. And then they constructed the real thing. It took about two and a half hours. And then we started up the fans and it inflated. There are vents in each pod that keep the air flowing, so it s very safe. David Hlady said the idea for the lunar colony project has been around for about 15 years, and was originally designed by the Canadian Space Agency. I ve done it a lot of times before in Asquith, where I taught before coming here, explained Hlady. But this is the first time it s been set up in Warman. After the structure is completely inflated, the lights in the gym are turned out and the students are engulfed in complete darkness. They use flashlights to navigate inside the lunar colony. Hlady said the project not only stimulates the students imagination, it also encourages them to use critical thinking skills and respond to unexpected situations while working with others as part of a team. it s a great math exercise, it s a great communication exercise, and it s a great cooperative learning experience, Hlady noted. But the key thing is that it fits directly into the provincial science curriculum. That s what all our activities should do. It s not enough just to do something that s cool. It has to be cool and fit the curriculum s objectives. He said one of the foundational objectives within the space unit part of the curriculum is to encourage the students to think about what it would be like to live in outer space. So by having the kids do the simulation exercise, they will be able to discuss and experience the concepts of isolation, and how life would have to be quite structured, he said. In that kind of environment, it s not a democracy, so there s a political dimension to this as well. Everybody s security depends on working within that tightlystructured environment. During the day-long learning exercise, the students experienced a contamination incident and a meteor shower - both of which threatened the colony. The

students had to deal with those unexpected situations and plan their responses. It was a safe, fun way for the kids to take on new kinds of responsibilities, said Hlady. They re having a blast. While they re in there, they re not Grade 6 students, they re astronauts.

When Steven Heidel of Prince Albert heads to London, England, this week to take part in an international WorldSkills competition, he ll be relying on Bev Demmert of Warman to help him stay sharp. The 20-year old Heidel is pursuing a degree in Computer Science at the University of Saskatchewan. He is competing in the computer software applications WorldSkills competition against people from all over the world. He won a Canadian skills competition in Waterloo, Ontario in May, 2009. Winning the gold medal at the Canadian competition qualiﬁed Heidel to represent Saskatchewan and Canada at the global WorldSkills event, scheduled for October 5-8 in London, England. Bev Demmert of Warman has been a computer systems technology instructor since 2001. In 2009, she was approached by the program director at SIAST to coach Heidel for the Canadian Skills competition in Waterloo. Our program head, Conrad Krueger, approached me and asked if I would tutor or coach this young fellow who had won the Saskatchewan competition, explained Demmert in a recent interview. It was a strictly volunteer position, and I was happy to

take it on. She said watching Heidel earn the gold medal at the Canadian competition was a good experience. It was quite exciting, she said, adding the compe-
