Star-Phoenix from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada • 11

the STAR-PHOENIX Saskatoon, Monday, January 10, 1972 11 ilson sets hot pace Fiom last year, Jerome Rak was 12th with 1,935, Howie Jaquish was 18th with 1,877, and Paul Meakin 4Ist with 1,629. Meakin was the man who pulled off the last-day heroics in 1971 to grab sixth spot. Don Wilson got off ta his most blazing start ever as the Saskatoon trials for the Western Canada five-pin bowling team opened Sunday at Grosvenor Lanes. But, generally, it was a day of startling developments. By the time eight games were over, six of the top 10 places among the women were held by first-time entries in the trials and six of the top 10 places among the men were held by bowlers who have never been to the Western Canada finals before.

With the surge by the upstarts, many former team members got lost in the opening day shuffle and some at them are going to require monumental comebacks to get back in contention. brandt, and Johnson were in the top 10 on seven occasions. Ag Price was Ilth at 1,801, Ann Sawatzky was 14th with 1.767, Shirley Quayle had 1,681, Bunny Hinch, 1,635, Marion Heasman, 1,606. and Iris Rak, from the team two years ago, was at 1,486. It was the first time in 15 years that Hinch had never made the top 10 list at any stage of a day's performance.

Other 300 games among the men included Brian Britton, 350, Vic Schellenberg, 341, George Gataint, 344, Doug Cox, 329, Andersen, 325, 306, Doug Kachuk, 323, Terry Rak, 321, Ed Clark, 314, Shore, 322, 300, George Gresty, 306, 301, Ken Smith, 310, 302, Hong, 304, Walsh, 304. Other 300 games among the women Were Sawatzky, 352, McColm, 321, and Green, 309. team to stay close in the running while Taylor, a former Canadian champion, seemed to be regaining old form and a 323 and a 298 helped her rise among the front runners. Hildebrandt closed with a 265 to grab. fourth; Marshall, another newcomer, had games of 320 and 289, to keep her in the running: Murray finished with 295; Johnson, formerly of Winnipeg 'but new to Saskatoon bowling only three years ago, had the day's high single, 371 and so the story went.

Eileen Wilson, a former Prince Albert high schobt star who bowled 10 pins in the East last year, after the first game, was on the board right up until the eighth game. It is significant that Marshall was in the top 10 all day and that Wilson, Morris, Hi Ide From two years ago, Stu Dafoe was sitting 28th with 1,810. On the women's ledger, the entry was larger than ever29and new faces certainly dominated play throughout the day. Morris, a first-time entry but a member of three leagues, set a steady pace, taking over first place on the sixth game, dropping into a tie for second on the seventh but regaining the lead with a closing 235. Her best games were 291 and 277.

Stewart, president of Macdonald Tobacco Inc. said Saturday. "We have had a very satisfactory relationship with the men's national finals for 45 years, and it seems only right to branch out and assist the thousands of women who play this great sport," he said. The word assist is the key to the Macdonald involvement. Under the chairmanship of Saskatoon's Syl Fedoruk, president of the Canadian Ladies' Curling Association, the women virtually run their own show.

They've had sponsorships in tbe past, but for the last few years have been doing an excellent job on their own. "But it was an expensive proposition," said Miss Fedoruk, "and Macdonald's came along at just the right time. We're looking toward a national championship to compare with the Brierand we have it." Provincial women's play. downs will begin across Canada immediately. The provincial champions will be awarded "cameo Lassie" sweater arm crests similar to the coveted purple hearts awarded provincial men's champions.

The national women's cham- pions will receive the Macdonald Lassie Trophy, with a victory banquet to be held March 3. "Although Saskatoon personnel are doing a lot of the work to bring this competition about It is by no means an all-Saskatoon show," said Miss Fedoruk.

"The 1978 British Commonwealth Games could be overshadowed and virtually lost amidst the counter attractions continually going on in any major urban centre of 2 million or more population. In Edmonton, the Games will be the attraction of that year. and the focus of concentrated attenion in the interim years until that date," The Edmonton mayor outlined some of the proposed facilities that will be built should the city's bid be successful. They include a $3.5 million stadium at the University of Alberta for athletic a $350,000 cycling track adjacent to the stadium, and a $3.5 million Olytnpic standard, 10-lane pool and diving facility.

Also in the offing for the Alberta capital is a $30-million, multi-purpose, downtown centre, capable of accommodating most indoor events simultaneously. This has already been rejected by Edmonton voters, but is expected to be the subject of another ballot, the mayor said. The Edmonton bid maintained the city has a ready-made MONTREAL (CP) Armed with a multi-colored fact-filled brochure and a direct commitment from the Alberta government of Premier Peter Lougheed, Mayor Ivor Dent of Edmonton Saturday won the right for his city to become the Canadian candidate to stage the 1978 British Commonwealth Games.

Of the countries registering bids.

Hcng Kong, India, Malaysia, and Trinidad-Tobago have never had the Games. Canada, founder of the Games, previously held them at Hamilton, in 1930, and Vancouver in 1954. The 1970 Games were held at Edinburgh, Scotland. Col, Jack Davies of Montreal, president of the Canadian association, made the anouncement of the Edmonton selection after both delegations had made hour-long presentations to the committee. Col.

Davies did not vote on the selection. In addition to Mayor Dent, the Edmonton delegation included Horst Schmid, minister of culture, youth and recreation in the Alberta government, and Dr. Maury Vlan Van Vliet, dean of the physical education department at the University of Alberta. In his letter of endorsement for the Edmonton bid, Premier Lougheed assured the selection committee that "the resources, within reason, of many of our government departments will be placed behind Edmonton's efforts." Mayor Dent said one of the legacies a "host city must leave is facilities of Olympic and Commonwealth Games standards, for broad and constant use by its own citizens, and by citizens and competitors for a wide area" around the site. He also said his city fits almost perfectly the type of host city the founders of the Gaines had In mind.
