semi-
|__ finals |

NORTH VANCOUVER
Highlands reached the semi-finals
of the B.C. Provincial Little
League Championships Monday
by beating Victoria Triangle 7-6.

The game was continued from
the night before when it was called
because of darkness.

Highlands, the North Shore’s
representative in the tournament,
led the way in Saturday's opening
day games with a 15-1 drubbirg of
northern B.C.’s Nechake team.

The North Shore team met
Whalley in Friday's semi-finals of
the eight-tearn tournament which
was piayed at Chris Zuehlke Park in
North Vancouver.

In other action last week, Dun-
can eliminated Victoria Drive from
tournament action Monday with a
12-2 win, Whalley edged out Trail
3-1 Tuesday and Victoria Triangle
eliminated Kitsitano Wednesday,
winning 3-2.

The finals are Monday.

Hunter
bowls
over Games
competition

VANCOUVER'’S Nell Hunter, the
oldest competitor at the Com-
monwealth Games, picked up her
first win Tuesday in the lawn
bowling singles.

Hunter, 71, beat England's
Margaret Blatmann 21-18. She is
not in contention for a medal as
the victory brought her record at
the games to one win and five
defeats.

But the victory came as a
much-needed boost, particuiaiiy in
light of a major loss earlier in the
week when she was defeated 21-7
by New Zealand's Rhoda Ryan.

Hunter has competed on the
bowling green for 40 years, while
also playing softball, basketball,
soccer and golf,
