1910 — PRINCE RUPERT DAILY NEWS — 1963. An independent. newspaper devoted to the upbullding of Prince Rupert and Northern and Central British Columbia, A member of the Canadian Press — Audit Bureau of Cirecwation Canadian Daily Newspaper Publishers Association Published by The Prince Rupert Daily News Limited JOHN F. MAGOR President Authorized as Second Class Malt by the Post Office Department, Ottawa, and for payment ot postage in cash, Kiger aw yr Mate we TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1963 Congratulations Miss Pierce —She could bring fame to Rupert f ever this city had oecasion to stand up and cheer it is most certum- lyein the light of Monday's announce ment that swimmer Sharon Pieree is to represent not only Prince Rupert hot the whole of Canada in the Pan- American games this spring. The mere fact this 14-vear-old girl wis chosen to be part of the women's team that will travel to Brazil in April is a great. tribute to the community which is rapidly becoming known as a city of champion swimmers. We have every reason to blow our horns and if Miss Pierce can emerge victorious in the South American com- petition then we can indeed sport huge coloiful feathers in our caps. \Mith less than two years of experi- ence in the aquatic world, Miss Pierce hasbrisen to an astounding height. It ix LO be classed nothing less than amaz- ing to see this young girl capture a Iuadhha on a team that hundreds of oth- ers. older than her have had to strive vears to attain. leven the outstanding Miss Mary Stewart of Vancouver, the holder of a world record, has not been able to brag of such a feat in such a short time. Little Miss Pierce has proven that her twice-a-day rigid training pro- eram under the direction of instruct- or Ron Gilchrist has paid big divi- dends, No one will hold regret if Sharon should not be successful in Brazil— quite the opposite. It is stimulating enough to know that a Prince Rupert swimmer is to eompete in this re- nowned event. With no less than 42 age group re- cords to their credit, six of them held by Sharon Pierce, the Prince Rupert swim clib and Mr. Gilchrist seem to he chalking up history at every turn. No other city of similar size in the province can boast of such esteem and there’s no reason why Prince Rupert should not take advantage of grab- bing some of that vaunted pride held so long by some of our friends in com- munities to the south. This latest achievement involving Miss Pierce must only be considered astronomical. From a girl who hardly knew the difference between a dog paddle and breast stroke two years ago to one that could now bring a wealth of fame to herself and this city Sharon is to be highly commended. We only hope this girl, who is now as much at home in the water as is a seal, can make us even prouder. And it wouldn’t have to be much. Another Rupert drill team — hooray! Phe report in Monday’s Daily News that the Prince Rupert Shrine Club ix 10 reorganize its drill team is sweet music to many citizen's ears. However, more gratifying to learn iz the fact that Alex and Laura Mitch- ell will once again Jend their very able services to instructing the new team, We remember well the days when Mr. and Mis. Mitchell brought much aeclaim to Prince Rupert with their smartly-dressed and astutely-trained sivls drill squad. And it wasn't too lone ago that this Shrine-sponsored group of girls captured many laurels throughout the dominion and many parts of the United States, It had always been a pleasure to watch the precision drills of this color- fully dvessed team and as such it was a sad loss when the girls broke up. We hope now that any girls, 15 years of age or over, will take advan- tage of the opportunity to be a part of this proposed new contingent. Having watched Mr. and Mrs. Mit- chell put this team through its paces many times over, we are secure in the knowledge that Prince Rupert will once again have some spirited per- formances. We hope too that this team will again he in a position to make the tours that once captivated the hearts of many.
