The University of Northern British Columbia is the top university of its size in the country according to annual rankings released today by Maclean’s magazine.

For the first time ever, UNBC is ranked No. 1 in the Primarily Undergraduate category that includes 19 universities.

“This recognition from Maclean’s only supports what the residents of Northern B.C. already know - that UNBC provides a first-rate education and a foundation for the development of the next generation of leaders for

our region, our province and our country,” UNBC President Dr. Daniel Weeks said.

“The dedication of our faculty and staff, the achievements of our students and alumni, and the generosity of our donors all contributed to this tremendous accomplishment.”

UNBC finished in the top five in seven different categories including student awards, total research dollars, library acquisitions, student/faculty ratio, faculty awards, operating budget per full-time student, and library expenses.

This year, Maclean’s added a student satisfaction survey, and strong support from UNBC students figured significantly in the outcome. UNBC students gave the University high marks in mental health services, extra-curricular activities and the quality of course instructors.

“As a graduate of UNBC, I recognize the value of a UNBC education, and can echo the sentiment of our current students that pushed us to the top of the national rankings,” UNBC Board of Governors Chair Ryan Matheson said.

“On behalf of the Board

of Governors, I offer sincere congratulations to the entire UNBC community as well as its supporters and champions.”

Trent University placed second in the undergraduate rankings and the University of Lethbridge placed third.

Simon Fraser University retained top spot in the Comprehensive category, followed by Waterloo and Victoria. McGill placed first in the Medical Doctoral category, followed by Toronto and UBC.

UNBC had been a runner-up three times in the past, placing second in 2014, 2012 and 2008.

Nancy Poulk Clouston of Quesnel, BC quietly passed away

Friday, Oct 23 2015 at the age of 83. Nancy Adeline Tellman was born March 7, 1932, the sixth and youngest

daughter of Vern and Alma Tellman of Lake City, Minnesota. It was the spring of the worst year of the Great Depression, but she was a sparkling child, with a stout constitution and joyful spirit that would carry her and those she loved for the rest of her life. So how can you sum up a life? How can you condense the experiences earned growing from sparkling child to young Army wife, from working mother to seasoned rancher? How can you sum up all of the little things that collect over a journey that stretches from Minnesota to California, across the Texas panhandle and the Colorado high country, to the pristine wilderness of the British Columbia Cariboo? Those who knew her, whether by her love of music, her winning smile, the hats she so fondly wore, or her books and poetry, know that you can’t.Nancy remains a much loved member of the Quesnel community and will be greatly missed. She is survived by three sisters, six children, seven grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, countless friends, and her dog.Donations in lieu of flowers may be made to the Quesnel and District Hospice Palliative Association, to whom we owe a special debt of gratitude, or the BC Cancer Foundation.Heartfelt thanks to Drs. Smit, Jascobsen, Appleby and Leeuwner, the staff of Quesnel Home Care Nursing, Fraserview Pharmacy and the Quesnel and Prince George Hospitals.A celebration of Nancy’s life will be held in Quesnel, details will follow.

1The Quesnel Lions

Housing Society (QLHS) has formally engaged with the City of Quesnel to rezone land for its affordable housing project for seniors: the Lions House. An important part of that work is additional consultation with the community, beginning with an open house Nov. 3 at the Tower Inn from 5pm to 8pm.

“Community outreach, including the neighbourhood, started in 2013,” said Mitchell Vik, QLHS president.

“Now that we’re in the formal rezoning process, several more steps will be undertaken, including an open house.”

The open house is a “drop-in” opportunity to see preliminary plans and give QLHS reps a chance to hear ideas and concerns about the project. No formal presentation is planned, so the public can visit any time between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.

The proposed 30 unit, $5 million, four story building at the corner of Reid and McNaughton would be the first large apartment building built in North Quesnel in over 25

years. To proceed, the project is seeking approval from the City for several changes to existing land use.

The key changes would allow a four story building, reduced on-site parking requirements, and higher density (the number of apartments on the lot). More information on the project can be found at www.qlionshousing.ca.

“To be economically viable, we obviously need to generate enough rent income to pay the mortgage,”Vik said.

“To get there, we need two things: four stories so we can get to 30 units, and 10 to 15 ‘market rent’ units for seniors who can afford it.”

Vik said that the QLHS has conducted research showing

conclusively that seniors’ housing developments require much less parking than do conventional housing developments.

Many jurisdictions allow one parking stall for every three units for seniors projects, especially affordable housing. Lions House proposes 11 stalls, which is slightly more than that.

“Since the building wouldn’t host significant events, there will only be a few days per year, like Mothers’ Day, that create much parking demand,” he added.

QLHS has been proactive on the parking issue, and offers to enter an agreement with the City that would effectively prohibit most tenants from owning a vehicle.

“We don’t expect limitation on vehicle ownership to be an issue,” Vike said.

“The Lions House would be located where residents can walk, scooter or take transit to most places they need to go, and we expect demand

for these apartments to be much higher than we can supply. Even the market rent units will be mainly rented by seniors aging in place, gradually getting rid of their cars.”

The more non-government money raised, the better chance the project will have to obtain government financing.

“The main fundraising work now is the ‘Buy a brick’ campaign,” Vik said.

“That campaign continues to go very well, and offers a chance for individuals, families and businesses to support the project and receive a permanent recognition of their support in the new building.”

The QLHS was launched by the Quesnel Lions Club in 2012 after the Lions determined that more affordable housing for seniors is an important need for Quesnel. The QLHS is a separate society established to fill that need.

Lions Society seek input on senior housing project

“Now that we’re in the formal

rezoning process, several more steps will be undertaken, including an open house.”Mitch Vik, president

Open house: Affordable housing project for seniors

Tuesday Nov. 3, 5pm to 8pm,

Best Western Tower Inn (banquet room)

The Quesnel Lions Housing Society (QLHS) proposes to build a 30 unit, four story apartment building on the vacant lot at the corner of McNaughton Ave. and Reid St. in north Quesnel (please see the location map below). The purpose of the open house is to encourage interested community members to review the preliminary plans for the project and provide feedback to QLHS reps. The proposed development would provide aff ordable housing for seniors. The proposed building would look similar to, and be about the same height as, the nearby Maeford Place assisted living facility on McLean St. The QLHS is seeking rezoning and Offi cial Community Plan changes to allow four stories, reduced parking compared to a conventional apartment building, and increased density (the number of dwelling units and lot coverage).

BCNEWS

TOM FLETCHERBlack Press

A warm winter and a dry spring and summer combined to produce a big jump in BC Hydro power exports this year.

Electricity exports to the U.S. jumped by 73 per cent in the first eight months of 2015 compared to the same period last year, according to export data from Statistics Canada.

BC Hydro says the warmer winter decreased residential customer demand for electricity in B.C., leaving enough water in the Columbia and Peace

River reservoirs that their combined volume reached record highs by the end of March 2015. That allowed for more generation from Mica dam on the Columbia River, which recently had a fifth and sixth turbine added to bring it up to maximum design capacity.

“These exports also supported the management of the obligations under the Columbia River Treaty, which provide for increased releases of water from the Canadian Columbia basin when the U.S. basin finds itself in severe drought conditions, as it did in the spring and summer

of 2015,” said BC Hydro spokesperson Simi Heer.

“Ultimately, the increased release meant additional generation at Mica, which resulted in more energy available for export.”

The Columbia River Treaty was signed by Canada and the U.S. in 1964, and its flood control mandate is set to expire in 2024. Energy Minister Bill Bennett has argued that the treaty should be renewed with an increased annual payment from the U.S., to reflect the value of controlling the river on the Canadian side for flood control and irrigation for

agriculture in Washington state.

The increase in electricity sales was a bright spot for B.C. exports, the value of which fell 22.2 per cent from January to August, due mainly to falling natural gas prices.

Electricity prices also fell during that period, so the 73 per cent increase in exports resulted in only a 32.2 per cent increase in value. Decreases in gas and electricity prices are related to greatly increased shale gas production in the U.S., which is used for power production as well as heating fuel.

A new water turbine is installed at Mica dam

north of Revelstoke. The addition of the fifth and

sixth turbines, completed this year, increases the

dam’s capacity by 1,000 megawatts, enough to

power 80,000 more homes.

Goodto see

Prime Minister-elect Justin Trudeau has vowed to have an equal gender split in his

cabinet, to be announced next week.As expected, not everyone was

thrilled with Trudeau’s decision to create an even split in his cabinet. On social media, some criticized him, pointing out that it may be irresponsible to not install the best candidate for each post.Historically, as female political vet-

erans can attest, that hasn’t always happened as the old boys’ network has tended to dominate.The numbers from last week’s

federal election were moderately en-couraging. Eighty-eight women were elected, or 26 per cent of the total of 338 seats.While that’s 12 more female voices

in the house – representing about 40 per cent of the 30 new ridings – it’s barely higher than the 25 per cent in the previous Parliament.Nonetheless, it was good to see

more women running. Among the big three parties, the NDP had the closest to a gender split. Of its 338 candidates, 146 (43.2 per cent) were women, and 18 of its elected MPs (40.9 per cent) are female. The Liberals will have the most women, 50, in Parliament, or roughly 27 per cent of their total of 184 MPs. The Conservatives lagged well behind, with just 17.2 per cent of its 99 seats (17 MPs) to be held by women.

When I graduated high school I was voted “Most Casual” by the year book commitee and labeled as such in the school’s hard covered annual. I took that as a more polite way to describe “Biggest Slob.”

I never wore a stitch of make up or learned how to style my hair in my youth. I wanted to, but after a few failed attempts at improv-ing my appearance with my mom’s cosmetics and plastic hair rollers I gave up. My typical look in high school consisted of a pair of bike leggings, an unflattering over sized t-shirt or hoodie and my hair pulled back in a messy ponytail. A fashion plate I was not.

The opposite of that, my daughter seemed born with a sense of style. Even as a toddler she was objecting to certain outfits and pulling out ones she prefered from her dresser. As she got older that interest in clothing grew and she soon became enthralled with beauty products as well. She and her friends would spend hours polishing their nails, applying make-up, styl-ing their hair and putting together ensembles. They’d host fashion shows, strut-ting up and down our hall-way in my high heels while

I took pictures of their different creations. They’d also play “beauty salon” alternating between stylist and customer.

I’ve sat in Daisy’s make up chair on many occassions over the years and with the exception of the times when she was three when I’d end up with my lips outlined like a clown, too much blush on my cheeks and bright pink nail polish up to my knuckles, I’d usually end up looking quite present-able.

Now that she’s 12 her delight in makeup and hair has intensified. I came home last week and the closet in her bedroom that I’d converted into a homework nook with a desk had been modified to a make-up sta-tion reminiscent of what’s seen in the cosmetics section of a department store.

She’d moved all her sta-tionary supplies to a hutch

inside her room and set up her desk with her hair tools, beauty products, and a Hol-lywood free standing mirror she’d received as a present.

“I never do my homework in here anyway,” she ex-plained. “This makes more sense since I like to sit while I’m putting on my face and there’s no room to do that in my little bathroom.”

Putting on her face means different things at different times. In the morning before school it’s just mascara, eyebrow shaping and clear chapstick. After scool or on the weekend it could be many different looks as she and her friends experiment with a variety of techniques and appearances they’ve learned from YouTube. For years she’s wanted to be a make-up artist and she’s got a talent and interest for it that I don’t.

It’s gotten to the point that if I wanted to go to an event with an elegant evening look I would definitely ask for her assistance. I tried doing my own “smoky eyes” once many years ago and ended up looking like a raccoon.

An old friend recently crti-cized my concession of such a “superficial pursuit that sexualized and demeaned all females.” That wasn’t an

unfamiliar notion as I have been puzzled and annoyed by the seeming assumption that the natural faces of women aren’t good enough and require face paint in order to look presentable.

Over the years I’ve light-ened up about that. Daisy’s innate love for beautifying transcends any irritation I have with the multi billion dollar cosmetic industy, and I have come to regard it more as an art form that holds a great deal of entertainment value for my daughter and her friends and millions of others.

Daisy’s posse say they don’t feel it’s necessary to wear make-up and some are often seen without it. They’re all smart, creative individuals involved in competitve activities such as fastball, gymnasitcs, soccer, dance, and school sports. I don’t see the harm in them having fun with make-up as long as it’s appropriate out-side the home. In our house they can do whatever they want with their appearance. The freedom of creative expression is good, even if it means choosing to look like the biggest slob.

Editor:Re: What service is

next? Observer, Oct. 23 Feedback.

The announcement of making changes to residential garbage pick-up and landfill operating hours (Observer, Oct. 14/15) rather startled me, but I viewed it quite differently than Matthews apparently did.

I saw it as wise for the Mayor and council who are facing the fact of financially tougher times ... not as they are trying

to punish taxpayers; they have already taken “hits” themselves.

1) You’ve heard it said we have become “a throw-away society” ... a spoiled lot of people who can afford to re-place items rather than try to repair or “make-do”.

At 74, I clearly see the difference from the times I have lived through in which money was not as easily got.

2) Also, at 74-years-old, I’m very into recycling (as promoted by today’s

society, AND at our landfill) for the benefit of future generations.

Re-cycling (paper, plastic, tins/metal, etc.) cuts a person’s so-called garbage amount by far more than half... always.

I have also seen people’s garbage containers “bursting open”, but because of non-flattened cardboard boxes, discarding of an old vacuum cleaner, etc. ... all of which should be recycled through MMBC’s recycling pick-up (if you

are privileged to have that service) or disposed of in a proper manner; those things do not belong in our landfill.

3) We have become ‘a spoiled society’ in which we expect everything to be done for us... for “nothing” if possible, even by our city.

After living with only one or two in a house for many, many years – and also being responsible to recycle what I can – I am not able to fill even one kitchen catcher bag

per week with what I call garbage... never mind a large city garbage container! (Mind you, I re-use zip-loc bags from purchases of frozen fruit, etc. to keep fruit, vegetable and meat/cooking scraps – even coffee grounds, so my under-the-sink garbage container is not wet, does not smell or attract flies, etc.

Hence, if I were counting on the city picking up my garbage, I could easily wait two

weeks or more without problems.

So, is your glass/ garbage container half full or half empty?

I’m just thankful our City and elected representatives are now “the type” to admit openly and honestly (we’ve heard those words for years) that we ALL have to help reduce costs. Take a good look: this is reality... not just “them punishing the taxpayers”.

It’s all our jobs to reduce and reuse

KYLE CHENGQuesnel, B.C.

I shouldn’t go along; my friends thought we should loot a rich person’s closed mansion.

By the way my name is Alex. I already told them we are going to get caught, but their stubborn, all 11 of them.

We’ll go tomorrow at the “scariest” hour, which is at 12 a.m.

Surprisingly I’m excited; I’ll probably sell everything I steal.

We’re all standing in front of the house, ski masks and everything. My friends’ names are Bill, Leo, Morgan, Jeremy, Mark, Sierra, Julie, Chris, Caleb, Abby and Lisa.

We’re slowly walking into the mansion; as soon as we walk in we all start

grabbing things that look special.

As we finish downstairs, I hear a creak near me, then a scream right beside me. I bolted to the nearest person, who happened to be Leo. I explain what happened and he told me I was a big baby.

He’s probably right, I am a big baby, so I drop my stuff and slowly sneak toward the door, but wait what is creeping up on Julie.

Is that a wolf behind her? I yell at the mismatched creature and Julie suddenly spots it as well.

She runs for the door along with everyone else, we all huddle near the door and wait. I yell “what are you waiting for?” and Mark returns “the door’s locked”

We all screamed and ran to a hiding spot.

As it quieted down all you heard were growls and the scraping of claws. If you weren’t scared at that point you weren’t human.

Then a scream pierced the air. It was so loud then it disappeared and it was all quiet again.

I could hear the sobs of Mark and their quick little “please save us.”

I bolted for the stairs and see the mansion has come to life full of death, there is a brown coloured werewolves.

I continue running upstairs to a closet and hid there. More screams pierce the air as another hiding spot is found, I’m not going to die in a house like this, so I look for a weapon room, all

the monsters seem to have disappeared.

All my remaining friends appear, I do a head count and three of them have died in horrible circumstances which I’m not going to describe.

We all quickly search for a key or a weapon; we don’t find anything except a couple of butter knives in the kitchen.

I quickly think of what wolves don’t like and then a idea sparks. I tell everyone to plug all the holes and start the sinks, maybe the wolves are afraid of water.

Then the wolves and ghosts come out again. Wanna know how I can tell?

Well to my left Caleb gets dragged off to die. So far Caleb, Chris, Mark and Morgan have died.

But the wolves are staying away now all we have to do is outwit them, except fins poke through the water.

I scream to get on to the shelves to higher ground, Jeremy and Bill get dragged under and where they were, blood mixes with the water, there’s only five of us left.

I’m determined not to let anyone else die, the water recedes somehow and the wild monsters get away again.

There is lying on the floor an obstacle course, I realize the house is testing us; I tell my remaining friends to follow me and don’t do anything different.

We slowly dodge bloody butcher knives and spikes. We’re on the last obstacle and my friends

are starting to grin a little then, everyone that died shows up.

Everyone gulps and turns that grin upside down. I remember the knives in my pocket and chuck them at the remains of my friends. They all hit except I didn’t have enough knives.

There is one zombie left, I grab the nearest thing while my eyes are closed. I happen to grab a butcher knife in mid-air and chuck it back at the zombie.

It hits and we run to the door; we all run home scared and telling stories, but nobody believes us.

That is the scariest and stupidest thing I’ve been through.

At least I still have some friends, I hope they destroy that mansion.

Lessons learnedThe night Alex lost half his friends and found out crime doesn’t pay

PHEONIX CURTISGr. 7 – Voyageur

One Halloween night there was a terrifying noise com-ing from upstair’s in Josh’s house…. BANG, CLANG, CLUNK! He heard.

He jumped off the couch and hid under the blankets. Josh was only eight, but he was responsible enough to be left home alone.

He reached out and grabbed the phone, which was lying on the coffee table but something grabbed his arm.

Luckily he managed to yank his arm away from the mysterious creature.

He stayed under the blankets until his mom got home. Once his mom got home he leaped out of his blankets and cried to his mother and told her all about the events that happened.

He also told her about the scary creature grabbing his arm, but as usual his mother told him he was over tired and to go to bed.

Josh, who did not usually argue when it comes to bed time, cried out “bed!” be-cause his room was in the attic.

He than went up to his bedroom and got in bed. Josh looked around and saw his best friend Joe.

“Haha you screamed like a little girl.” Joe said.

Josh’s mom said that was a neat trick and told him to apologize to Josh and told him to go home.

Joe and Josh were never friends again..

It was almost Halloween night, so I was carving a pumpkin. It was bright orange, I carved a big mouth and � ve goggly eyes. It gave me goosebumps because it looked suspicious. When ever I went, his eyes seemed to follow me. When I went to go put the knife in the sink, the pumpkin moved across the table. I assumed he rolled, so I did not really care.

On Halloween night I went trick or treating around the neighbour-hood. I heard laughing. I looked back, but did not see everything I heard. “Guess who?” I looked

down, it was my pumpkin. I screamed and ran home as fast as I could. My pumpkin had two spidery stems as legs. He was chasing me.

I accidentally dropped my candy. I could not get it. My pumpkin grabbed it. I was so scared I did not care. I � nally got home. I locked all the doors. My pump-kin’s stems grew so much he was as tall as my window and was able to jump in the windows.

I ran to my room and called my mom on the phone but my pump-kin answered the phone and said, “See you next year.”

I hung up the phone and I started to scream.

Pumpkin comes to life and scares me

I went into the woods and I went behind a tree and a rock and the witch who � ew past me and zom-bies who walked past also the ghosts and the goblins who ran past. And my mailman becomes evil and my house too. So I went to my costume and it � ew up and up and up and � ew up and down

in front of me. And went out the door and never came back. And then I didn’t � nd it again so I looked out my window and I found it because it � ew past my window and then it again and again and again so I went to bed and I woke up and my costume was at the window and � ew in. And it � ew out again and � ew away and I put on my skeleton costume.

SHELBY HILLGr. 6 – Riverview

When Caitlyn turned 14, she was sent to a school called Creepsin School. It was a long way to walk from home to school. The school looked awful from the outside. There were dead vines and it looked abandoned. When she walked in the teachers and staff looked awfully weird. Some of them were werewolves, vampires, zombies, Frankenstein and spiders – pretty big spiders. The hallways were horrible, nothing but old paintings and the stairs were very old and creaky.

Caitlyn saw this vampire giving a paper to everyone. Caitlynn walked up to the vampire and he gave her a piece of paper with all of the the classes and the subjects that were taught in them. All were gross and weird. There was the Dissecting Room, Flesh and Blood Room and Break a Hand Room. Caitlyn was in the Dis-secting Room. Her teacher was Mr. Deadly and he was a zombie. Caitlynn got one good look at him and she ran out and hid. The Brake a Hand Room was actually the gym. Her gym teacher was Frankenstein. She did laps and jumping jacks and all that hard stuff. When it was time for lunch, it was a good thing her mom packed her a good lunch. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be eating because she thought it was disgusting to each � esh and drink blood.

After the day was � nally over, Caitlynn was relieved. She walked home and told her par-ents all about the disaster. Her parents didn’t believe her, so tomorrow would be another day of disaster.

Once upon a time everyone was really excited because it was a day till Halloween. Everyone was out at the mall getting their kids a costume. One got a bunny, one got a dog and one got a Godzilla. The mall shut down for the night.

In the morning all of the kids got up and put on their costumes, went to school and got a whole bunch of candy, cupcakes, cake, chocolate bars and marshmallows.

When they went outside for lunch 10 people were missing. One of the helpers at the school went look-ing for all 10 kids.

A couple minutes later she found all of them but they were dead and all lying in a big puddle of blood. Their necks were bright red. The duty that was looking for the kids disappeared.

When the bell rang to go home everyone went trick-or-treating. There was one house that had a head of a skeleton singing “Revenge, revenge, revenge is all I need” and every kid that went to that house gets pulled in and eaten.

First to go in was the little boy dressed as a bunny.

He rang the doorbell and got pulled in and put into storage.

Next was the dog. He got pulled in and put into storage.

Next was the Godzilla. She said “Give my friends back!”

The dude was scared to death so he had to say yes.

ANICIA BALDWINGr. 6 – Ecole Baker

It’s Halloween today and Ali’s mom said that she couldn’t go down Spark Street, for the only house that was still standing was haunt-ed. All of the other houses on the street rotted from inside out and eventually they crum-bled to the ground. Ali heard that the house owners where still in side of the houses when they fell down.

Siri asked Ali if she would go trick or treating with her. Ali said yes but she clearly an-nounced that she could not go down Spark Street.

When she told Siri this, Siri burst out laughing “HAUNT-ED, you’ve got to be kidding me!!”

Ali didn’t make a peep after that. By the time school was over the sun started to go down. It’s almost winter so it gets dark earlier. Siri walked out alongside Ali when the bell rang.

Everybody ran home to get ready for Halloween, at 8 p.m. people started to go door-to-door chanting trick or treat.

Siri and Ail’s bags were heaping with candy by 12:30 a.m. and they had to go home

but Siri made her go down Spark Street which her mother said not to go down.

Siri put a piece of paper over the street sign so Ali wouldn’t freak out.

Since Ali had never been up that street she could not tell that it was the haunted house, they reached the door and Siri pushed Ali in side. Siri slammed the door behind her.

Ali screamed as a white fig-ure pulled up beside her, she was so scared that she ran up the creaky old stairs.

The whole house smelled as if mold was growing inside the walls.

When she reached the top floor she peeked into the din-ing room and there, sitting in front of her, was about 12 ghostly figures trying to eat apple cinnamon pie. She was so horrified and scared she jumped out of the closest win-dow and ended up breaking a few leg bones.

Siri has always been mean but never this mean on Hal-loween.

So after a few painful months Ali forgave Siri and they went trick or treating together every year after that. And for the house, it crum-bled to the ground along with the ghosts.

I was about to carve my pumpkin and there was a golden seed.

Whenever you touched it, it burned your hand.

So I grabbed my tweezers and I went to get the golden seed and the tweezers turned golden and I was surprised.

But the tweezers could still move, so I picked the golden seed up with my tweezers and touched my door.

It turned golden and I went and showed my mother.

And then mom turned everything in the house golden.

Then she locked the golden seed up.

2 Rivers Boxing Club brought four of their boxers to Cranbrook for the Charity Challenge Oct. 24 with the boxers performing well. They included Rumour McGregor, Emmett Emblau, Trey Lighten-ing and Olin Lee. McGregor was the youngest of the group, as she is eight years old. Emblau and McGregor took part in the Initia-tion category, which is for boxers from the ages of eight to 10. The matches had no winner or loser with both boxers receiving a med-al. Head coach Wally Doern said he was impressed how McGregor and Emblau did in their bouts.

“I was happy with their perfor-mances,” Doern said.

“They couldn’t have done any better.”

He said Emblau got some good shots in on his opponent as well.

“He landed some big hooks and when they landed they were pretty big,” Doern said.

Lightening had his matched called by the doctor when he got hit and started to bleed. Lee’s match saw him win by unanimous decision against Josh Hines from Medicine Hat, who was overmatched in the bout. Lee was proud of how he competed, as he had not boxed in a while.

“I think it went very well,” Lee said.

“This was probably one of my best fights so far.”

Doern agreed with that sentiment.

“Olin’s performance was superb,” Doern said.

“He boxed beautifully

and scored very well.” He also added that the one thing

that surprised him during the matches was the fights between McGregor and Emblau, in how aggressive their opponents were. “The only thing that did surprise me was the aggression of the two little Cranbrook boxers,” Doern said.”

“We weren’t quite ready for that but it was a good experience and now we are ready for it.”

Along with the individual med-als that the boxers won the club also won the award for best out of town team. 2 Rivers Boxing Club will be hosting Rumble 19 Nov. 7 with the fights starting at 7 p.m, which will feature Lee in the main event. Reserved sponsor-ship tickets are available for $50 and general admission for $20. If interested you can call Doern at the club at 250-991-5061 or his cell at 250-925-4834.

STORIES & PICTURES

OLIVIA TURNERGr. 4 – Carson

JENNAH PAULGr. 6 – Nazko

Once upon a time there was girl name Jamie who was six years old and who had just moved to a new house.

Jamie kept telling her parents about a clown she kept seeing in her bedroom window.

She would run into her mom’s room yelling I saw it and her mom would say saw what? Her mother did not believe her and told Jamie to stop lying and go back to bed.

The next day after getting back from school she continued to see the clown.

After she had dinner and went up the stairs to the bathroom to wash up for bed then she heard a SLAM!

The lights went out and Jamie tried to open the door but it would not open. The clown than appeared and said “you sleep in my room Jamie I’ll be seeing you” the lights then turned back on and the door opened.The next day Jamie went to her mom and asked if they could move and her mom said that we have

just moved here, but Jamie was adamant about it and her mom said we have to ask your dad. Later when Jamie’s dad got home her mom went and said Jamie wants to move again. He agreed and said lets start packing. As they were ready to go someone said “aren’t you forgetting me: to Jamie’s parents and they looked towards the back of the room and saw the creepy clown. They then ran screaming out the door and they said to Jamie that they were sorry and would believe her next time.

Parents finally believe Jamie

ABBY BOERBOOMGr. 6 – Ecole Baker

I couldn’t breathe; I just paced around my room. Finally I let go and screamed. “Sorry, I needed to get that out.” I apologized.

“It’s alright.” Madison, my friend, said.“Here, let me fix your hair.” Jasmine, my

sister, said. As Jas fixed my hair Madison sparkled me

in fierce perfume. “All ready.” They said in unison. I couldn’t breathe again.

Next thing I knew, I was walking down the isle when I fell off a two- metre podium down a cliff.

Wait, I never fell. I WAS PUSHED. I thought. I looked up past the cliff to see Tris Riddle and Tessa LeStrange staring at my lifeless body, laughing.

That sent me haywire. My soul got up and possessed her, making her jump down the sewer so she would never see anyone again.

I tore her face off with a ladder and ripped her neck so her head was twisted.

Tris was throwing stuff down at my dead corpse when I possessed her making her slap everyone there and then jump down a cliff farther than mine was.

My fiancé sent emails through Myspace telling everyone about my death. People were scared to go in the bathrooms because he said I would come up the sewer and murder them.

So I eventually got sick of it and murdered Frank, my fiancé, through his shower.

No one dared talk to me after that and I lived a haunted ghostly life.

The only thing is people had thought that the cliff I was pushed off of was haunted.

HUNTER ANTONICKGr. 7 – Voyageur

I went jogging one day in the park and sud-denly a man who looked very strange came walking by.

He looked like he had a broken leg and his face was green and disgusting.

Then a women came up to the man and tried to help him or see what was wrong with him. Unfortunately she was about to find out!

The man bit her on the arm. They were can-nibals, I realized in horror.

However, they were not cannibals they were zombies and I think I am next.

One push too far

The zombie apocalypse

and the spooky house

LIAM CHENIERGr. 4 - Carson

One dark and stormy night Dracula came out of his cave to suck BLOOD!!!

It was dusk – the right time to hunt for food. He jumped in his dracmobile and headed for the nearest hotel which was 55 miles away.

By the time he got there, it was almost dawn, but like us, he can’t go without a meal.

But Dracula saw a cow on the road “Mm beef,” Dracula said as he whisked the cow off its feet.

45 minutes later he drove up to his cave and yelled at the cow, “What are you waiting for – an engraved invitation?” as he shoved the cow in the barn.

He went to his castle’s bar and had a drink. “That’ some good Joe,” he said.

For the next 1,000 years Dracula slept in his coffin at the very back of his cave, and never harmed the people or livestock of Earth again.

MASON CROYGr. 2 – Parkland

In the woods it was dark. I was a monster. I went out with my talking cat. We saw a ghost and we followed it to a house. We went to a Halloween Party. I said “BOO!” The monsters were scared of me. They ran away and never came back again.

Spooky Halloween

Draculareforms

AVA BEANSGr. 3 – Parkland

I was in my house getting on my costume. I came out to show my Granny.

When I am showing her, my cos-tume starts to fly and I was in it. I flew out the door.

Ella and Brooklyn tried to get me down. Then my brother tries to get me down, too. Dogs barked at me

in the neighbourhood. I flew over a lot of houses.

I tried to hold on to a tree but I flew away.

Everybody got in to the car and drove under me and my Granny tried to get me down.

I finally jumped out of my cos-tume and fell into a cushy tree.

I did not want that costume ever again so I got a ghost costume in-stead.

Up, up and away

NATHAN NITSCHKEGr. 2 – Parkland

On Halloween there was a pumpkin with money inside it.

It had $1,000,000 inside.I want that pumpkin so bad. Two years later I have the

pumpkin.I have $1,000,000.I bought it for $10.

The $1 million pumpkin

AIDEN GILKERSONGr. 6 – Kersley

Carter was playing his video games and then his mom called and said “can you go get me some pickles.”

So Carter went to the basement, turned on the lights and went to the cupboard and grabbed the pickles. Then the lights went out, he saw a face in shadows, he turned on the lights and it was gone. He went upstairs and gave his mom the pickles.

Three Weeks Later“Can you grab some beans” “okay

mom” said Carter. So he went to the basement, got the beans, the door slammed and locked, the lights shut off, he saw the face then the body.

He dropped the beans, it came close then tapped him then he was at a cliff.

The monster was behind him and whispered “push” as Carter began to fall.

The face in the shadows

Corn MazeTRAE SCANLANGr. 2 – Parkland

I went into the Corn maze. My family went one way and I went the other way. I was lost. Then a fake zombie jumped out of the bushes and a chainsaw came out. I finally caught up with my family and we went home.
