Page 10 April 1981 Cassiar Courier Liors & Lioress News “MONTE CARLO NITE” LION PRESIDENT REG ASH “DOING HIS THING” PROS, SSS A FUN CROWD SRE IO IO K Lioness S2ews It has come to the attention of the Lioness Club that a lot of people are unaware of the Club’s activities and functions in the community. Due to the turnover of residents here in town we have become a very small group of ladies. Unfort- uately it is becoming increasingly more difficult fo function as we have in the past. Perhaps some basic information concerning the involvement of the club would help to stimulate the interest of prospective new members. Community affairs which have been organised or supported by the Lioness Club are:- - A bazaar to raise money to support an overseas foster child. - A Mother's Day Dinner was organised for the benefit of local mothers. Cold plates were made up and delivered to the homes of those people participating. Also an ice cream parlour was set up. - A skate -a@ - thon:- contributions went to the Easter Seal House and the Crutch and Brace Fund. - Collection of used spectacles for C.N.ILB. and canvassing for the C.NI.B. - Participation in many local activities to help the community spint. - Aid for all the fire victims in the area - Hospital showcase for newborns in town. The Lionéss Club is a charity organization that cares about our community. It would be a shame to.see the Club forced.to fold and no longer able to contribute to these worthwhile causes. Anyone interested in sharing ideas and skills would be most welcome and their help much appreciated. Thankyou Cassiar for your support in the past years. Please help us to contribute our contin- uing support and aid to the Community. Lions Monte Carlo was a great success again this year, and thanks are in order to Lion. Richard Rudkowski, for organising the event. Also a great deal of thanks to the people of our fair commun- ity for their participation. All monies made at this event are being distributed amongst several organ- izations in our community. Several games this year were run by our newest members, Lions Carl Du Manoir, Ken Kethler and Abdou Minouni. Also thanks to Lorne Armstrong and Pam Kraw- czyk for their assistance. The Tin Lizzie was won by Patrick Haldiman from 511 Malozamoff. Pleasant driving Pat. Most people noticed the familiar face behind the kitchen. Yes, our “Weenie King” Lothar Kutz made his appearance again this year, with his grandmother’s recipe. Unfortunately, halfway through he ran out of propane and all the weenies came to a standstill and he started baking cookies and cakes at the cookery. We still recognized you under that dirty chin Lothar. REG ASH TIN LIZZIE SSE « L KUTZ FIRST PRIZE RINK WITH TROPHIES L to R L.KUTZ B. STORIE R.ASH C.

Two teams, comprising: Skip — Cameron Joseph Third — Gabor Friscka Second — Elizabeth Gwilliam First — Teresa Bartell and Skip — David Storoschuk Third — Vance Shayler “Second — Dan Deyo First — Bev Deyo were picked from students in grades 7 to 10. The festivities began with a dance on the Friday even- ing and was followed by a full day of curling on Sat- urday against teams from Atlin, Teslin and Dease Lake. In the early draws Cassiar’s A Team, skipped by Cameron Joseph, devastated the Teslin No. 3 team 10—1 while the B team, skipped by David Storoschuk was vanquished by the Atlin No. 2 team. Team A went on to play the Atlin No. 2 team and were nar- rowly edged out 7 to 4 in a game which could have gone either way. This loss eliminated them from fur- ther play in the tournament. Team B rallied against” the Atlin No. 3 team to win a berth in the finals for the B Event. The B Event playoffs started out drastically for Cas- siar asthe Teslin- rink amassed a 7 to 1 lead by the fourth end. The Cassiar team collected itself and came back to tie the match in the eighth end. The ex- ' tra end saw Cassiar put three shot rocks into the house before the Teslin rink could draw in for shot rock, Pressure was on our skip to make a take-out and stay in the house. This was accomplished but the Tes- lin skip performed the same shot. Dave was again call- ed upon to make another difficult take-out shot pote unfortunately, he narrowly missed. The final standings were Atlin team No. 1 and Atlin team:No. 2 came in first and second in the A Event,, Testlin team No. 3 came in first and Cassiar Team B came in second in the B Event. Trophies were award- ed to the members of the winning teams at a banquet dinner. _ All of the members of the Cassiar school curling teams enjoyed themselves and would like to express — their thanks to the community of Atlin, their billets and the Atlin School for organizing a successful bon- spiel. ‘BIG PRIZE BINGO On March 25 the Figure Skating Club and the Commun- ity Club held their monthly Big Prize Bingo at the Rec Centre.

BY JOHN STURROCK CHAPTER 6 Now that Dangerous Dog Danny had a warm full tummy he was inclined to regard his world with optimism. His impatience, frustration and for- ward looking anxiety disappeared. AllI need now is a harem, he thought — about five or six beauteous lovable adoring female type canines ~ something to howl with when the moon is rising. He lay back on the grass, clasping his front paws- behind his head, and crossing his rear dog legs! He reflected and mused and dreamed. Just think, he thought, my harem would have a yearly yield of sixty-six puppies — presuming, of course, a batch of 6 adoring females. Freedom is wonderful. Such fatherhood, such rewarding motherhood. Just think, he thought, that next year will bring forth one hundred and eighty-eight days. Multiply that by sixty-six and wow! I could be a chieftan! a Godfather! I would have respect, bargaining power, a dog to reckon with.I’d need a garbage contract — Doggie Chow kitchens, training pro- grams, provisions for widows and single parent puppies, and music lessons for proper howling! Dogs will howl again, without the danger’of brick ~ throwing! Ah yes! Tomorrow I must begin the task of liberating my female adoring doggesses! Tomorrow will be the canine female liberation day, Oh how happy they will be. Of course I may refuse several. I-must have my pick of the litter in the interests of doggy racial purity, And so, he fell asleep! f. Miz Pinky and all the rest of the denizens disap- peared into the forest, leaving Dangerous Dog Danny sleeping by the fire amidst the. litter around the place of secret meetings and strange dreams. And to this day the lawnchair monster of the house of square trees cannot understand how Dangerous Dog Danny lit the fire and obtained the food and the fried chicken, garlic bread and so forth. He wonders and muses. Dogs must be in- telligent, he thought. They just don’t talk human!
