Remembrances of Schreiber centennial Often great disappoint- ments beget great achievements. Picking the right tone of voice, the pro- per gut responses to events, is an art in which I, per- sonally, am sadly lacking. It is my intention to inspire others to respond to the re- cent Schreiber centennial celebrations and share their thoughts, revelations and experiences so that we may all catch the spirit of that magic week. And magic it was. It was as though had stopped briefly and had given us all a second chance to relive our lives, rejuvenate old and forgotten feelings and experience countless cases of deja vu. Renewing old acquain- tances and listening to ~ stories long forgotten were constant reminders that you may leave Schreiber but that Schreiber never leaves you. It was difficult, at times, to separate the past from the present. Even the infirmities of old age seem- ed to abate and with each passing day a feeling of togetherness pervaded and everyone sensed that this was truly an unforgettable, joyous, momentous occa- sion, never to be ex- perienced again. One does not come away from long days and nights remember- ing the past and consider- ing the present, full of sor- row. In the end, quite the other way, one is renewed. After any occasion of this nature there is always a letdown, a sadness in the realization that the magic moment has passed and many of us have failed to grasp the full significance, Heinz 57 victorious The Schreiber Mixed Adult Slowpitch League held it's 3rd Annual Tour- nament Wednesday, August 21 to Sunday August 25. Twenty-two exciting games in all were played within the 5 days. Heinz 57 defeated the 1984 champions Stray Cats in the final games by a score of 6 to 2. The game was tied 2-2 at the bottom of the 6th, where Heinz 57 earned 4 runs to take the championship undefeated in the Tournament. The Stray Cats worked their way into the final by defeating Catch 22 at 9:30 a.m., Recreation at 12:30 p.m., Texaco at 2:00 p.m. and the Dead Heads at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday. Heading into their 5th game of the day may have proved too much for the powerful Stray Cats Team. Ron Larivee, Recreation Co- ordinator presented the winning team with in- dividual championship trophies. Team members include: Mario Veneziano, Lawrence Speziale, Frank Trichilo, Marc Trichilo, Robert Speziale, Joey Speziale, Mimmo Diano, Fred Figliomeni, John Cebrario, Janice Liebroch, Linda Trichilo, J.J. Diano, Jacki Marshall, Maria Cebrario, Jacki Speziale, Brenda Speziale and Kara Klassen. Congratulations!!! The Stray Cats were awarded the consolation trophies. The "Most Fun Loving Team" award presented to the team who has the most fun went to the "Misfits.""

L.H. Simons Clerk-Co-ordinator Township of Terace Bay Terrace Bay, Ontario failed to express our true feelings, failed to convey a message to all Schreiber- ites that the event touched our daily lives deeply. We live in a cynical, selfish, unsentimental world. A world in which, to show one's emotions is viewed as a weakness. I happen to think other- wise. I happen to think Schreiber is different, has always been different and, assuredly, will always re- main different. The magic moment need not pass. If enough of us respond with our stories, experiences, however in- significant, it will keep the spirit of Centennial °85 continued on page 12 The long awaited report of the Royal Commission on the Northern Environ- ment was released in Thunder Bay on last Thursday. The report was commis- sioned by Premier William Davis' government in 1977 to inquire into all matters pertaining to the environ- ment north of the 50th parallel. The Liberal government has asked that the report be released to the public at the earliest possi- ble date. A land mass larger in area than Western Europe, yet containing less than half of one per cent of Ontario's population, the region north of 50 degrees extends from an imaginary line running north of the Trans Canada Highway in Nor- thern Ontario to the shores of James and Hudson's FUNERAL Funeral services for Mr. Rossport, Ontario who died August 24, 1985 were held on Tuesday morning from Kings Funeral Home to St. John Berchmans Church, Rossport.

Justice Patrick Hartt was appointed to head the com- mission. He published an interim report in 1978 and was succeeded as commis- sioner that year by Ed Fahlgren, a Northern On- tario mining executive. The commission inter- viewed hundreds of people in communities and reserves across Northern Ontario, accumulating a wealth of information. The 450 page report and its recommendations touch on every aspect of life in the remote north, including native concerns, resource management, the environ- ment and government's role in the region's future development. Northern Af- fairs and Mines Minister Rene Fontaine said his ministry is heading an in- terministerial committee to study the report's recommendations. "Because the recom- ~ mendations have major im- plications for a number of ministries, Premier Peter- son has asked my ministry to co-ordinate the govern- ment's response," he said. He noted that some of the proposals contained in the recommendations have already been targeted for attention from the Liberal government.
