The Cassiar Curling Club’s Twenty-Fifth Anniv-
ersary Bonspiel was an unqualified success from
the start to finish.For the first time we were able
to accommodate forty-eight rinks, and using
“seven sheets of ice we could guarantee each rink
eight games. People who came to curl certainly
got what they came for.

By using five sheets of ice in the Arena the Club
was able to put on a demonstration of excellent
curling competition for the many spectators
who turned up to watch. The appearance of Don
Twa, ex-Brier competitor, provided an added at-
traction for the spectators.

A warm welcome back was extended to ex-
Cassiarites Don Irwin of Yellowknife and Bob
and Muriel Yorke of Prince George, and a warm
welcome was also extended to Jan McRae and
Doug McLellan who travelled all the way from
Nanaimo, B.C. to compete in our Bonspiel. Also,
for the first time we were happy to accommod-
ate a representative team from Cassiar Asbestos
Vancouver office.

AEW PRESIDENT FOR C.AG

DOUG LITTLE

N
In January of this year, Mr. Doug Little, joined
Cassiar Asbestos Corporation as President.

Mr. Little is no stranger to the North. He was
‘born in the Ominica District near Burns Lake
and has lived in numerous Bush Camps. Apart
from the years 1939-1945, when he joined the
Armed Forces, Mr. Little has spent most of his
life in B.C. He worked for Silver Standard near

‘Hazelton. He then moved to Salmo, B.C. during
the 1950’s, where he resided for some years.’

Since then Mr, Little; who is married and has
four daughters, has lived in Vancouver. He en-
joys skiing - both cross-country and downhill.
Living in Vancouver Mr. Little is able to indulge
in two more favorite pastimes - boating and —
fishing. However, in spite of the excellent
courses available, he prefers to leave golf to the
experts.

Since joining the Company Mr. Little has made
two visits to Cassiar. Having seen our town dur-

ing the winter, we look forward to showing him
what lies beneath all our snow. -
