The Bandits will most like be gunnin’ for the Panthers after Embrun robbed Cumberland of its first-place lead in the National Capital Junior Hockey League midway through the season. Cumberland finished second overall in the standings as the regular season schedule closed over the Family Day long weekend. That includes a 7-1 skinning of the Vankleek Hill Cougars Saturday night.

Competition con- tinues Monday night in Cumberland. In the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League the Casselman Vikings are three and zero on Alexandria in the opening playoffs round of the St. Lawrence Divi- sion.

She’s very lucky.” Father and daughter were out on the ice in the inlet between Clarence Island and the ferry dry dock along the Ottawa River soon after the annual derby began at 6 a.m. Feb. 18. Three-quarters of an hour later, something yanked on Allyson’s rig and its live-minnow bait. On the other end of the line was a walleye, weighing in at just over five pounds. “I thought it would be easy,” the cham- pion young angler said about the fight to haul in her morning’s catch. “But it was heavywhenItriedtopullitout.Mydadhad to help me.” Allyson’s fish was a regular topic of comment among dozens of other anglers in the derby as they watched their rigs and hoped for the same kind of luck.
Allyson Dion has a dream. To be the best ice fisherman, or girl, ever, just like her dad. “I wanted to ice fish like him,” the nine-
