GOOD GRIEF! The
Hollyburn Hollyhawks
Jiiniors won a gold medal in
hockey last weekend and
they didn’t even need a
blanket to do it!

The men’s over-40 team
based at West Vancouver's
Hollyburn Country Club
earned their medal in Linus
Division play at the Snoopy
Senior World Hockey
Championships.

It all makes more sense :
when you realize the Santa :
Rosa tournament is the .
brainchild of Charlie Brown
creator Charles Schultz and

is played at the rink he built
in his home town.

Forty teams travelled to
California for the senior
event, including groups from
Finland and Japan.

The tournament divided
the mixed-age teams into
divisions of four each,
named after a Charlie Brown
character.

The Hollyhawks defeated
the North Shore Winter Club
Old Goats 3-1, Santa Monica
Sharks 90 and Calgary
Springbanks 9-1 to earn the
gold.

It was the first time out of

four entries the team had
earned the gold.

Leading this year’s edition
of the junior squad was
captain Ray Wong and
assistant John Roberts.

The Hollyhawks Seniors,
the over-50 team, finished

their division with the
bronze medal.

A 5-2 loss to. the
Hollywood Stars and

another 5-1 one to the San
Francisco 49’ers didn't stop
the local men from posting
at least one win, a 43
squeaker over Victoria.

Knoll earns vintage bronze

THINGS WERE just a little ,
bit different for Marty Knoll \j
when he took to. the:
Westwood track recently. |

Instead of piloting his —
usual trusty Formula Vee at
the July 24 meet, he was at
the wheel of a sleek black
1961 Lotus Seven for the
annual “Historic Racing
Weekend.”

Newcomers
finally win
at s‘pitch

WITH ONLY one week left
in regular sedson play,
Tokeland A’s need to win
only one of their next two

games to take the North
Shore Slowpitch League
title.

Highlight of the season for
last-place Newcomers has to
be their win last week over
the fading Stingers in a ninth
inning, One run victory.

In other play, St. Alice
Hotel downed Stingers 15-2
and Squids = took the
Newcomers 14-10

Owned by Roger Salomon
of New Westminster, the car
is powered by a spunky
Austin four-cylinder that
makes it “fairly fly” over the
road.

“It handles almost as well
as my own car,” said Knoll.
So well, in fact, that when
the complicated handicap
used to equalize the many
cars racing was worked
through, the North Van-
couver driver was awarded
the bronze medal at the end
of the colorful race.

Knoll was narrowly beaten
by two others who managed
to catch up on the last lap,
but was consoled by the
second place finish his five-
car team managed in the
relay race.

The race featured a huge
entourage of vintage sports
and racing cars, almost half

of which
California.

A 1947 Talbot Lago Grand
Prix was one of the featured
attractions as was an
authentic Porsche 906 and
an Alfa Romeo T33 sports
racer.

Also present were many
fine examples of Jaguars,
Lotus’ and other British cars
as well as many American
high performance cars.
Among these was an A.C.
Cobra which holds the
world’s record fastest lap,
198 mph, on a closed course
for producation
automobiles.

An additional bonus for
Knoll, who is sponsored by
Microlon Teflon Metal
Treatment/Cleanco Western
Carpet Cleaning, was the
champagne which served as
the drivers’ prize.

Sailboarding tests skill

other skills in between, that
sailboarding took over.

Travelling across Europe
and financing himself with
his unique skills, Damilano
settled for a time in Senegal.
There he _ first saw
sailboarding and took it up
Since there were few
mountains to climb, and
with no coaching whatsoever
he began the sport which
would soon dominate his
life.

It was sailboarding which
brought Damilano to West
Vancouver more than four
years ago, and when he is
not working as the manager
at the Cafe des Alpes he is
out there, crossing the
harbour, no matter what the
weather.

“I’m not athletic,”
Damilano says. ‘‘Wind-
surfing is mostly tactic and
technique in racing.

“It's not like running or
cycling — you have to read
the wind, play the sheets to
become a winner.”

Damilano races two kinds
of sailboards — open class
boards designed by French
manufacturer Crit and
Windsurfer boards used in
one-design events.

A sure sign of a sail-
boarder’s status is corporate
sponsorship, and Crit has
provided Damilano with two
boards to test and use.

And he does use them, to
good advantage. Damilano’s
most recent win came at the
end of June in the Pacific
Northwest open, when he

beat out competitors from
B.C. to Texas.

Damilano’s win in
District 11 one-design allows
him to travel to Sardinia at
the end of September for the
World -Championships. A
few more wins in the open
class and he can enter that
event too.

He has also qualified for
the North American
championshps in San Diego
this month, and will compete

“My life right now is
sailboarding and work, and
I'm just trying to save
enough energy to serve my
customers well,” Damilano
says.

In the meantime, daily
trips from Jericho to
Lighthouse Park and back
via Bowen Island will keep

Damilano ready for the
upcoming, and hopefully
successful, challenges for

the world title.
