know how to comment. ‘
We thought the first two
periods of the contest
with the U. de Q. a Trois
Rivieres were examples
_ofwhatwethinkiswrong
shutouts !
In Field Hockey, we lost two to the league leading classy U.N.B. squad (11-0-0 in league play!) by the ra- ther lopsided scores of eight and six to zip. We might comment that two of the leading scorers for the visitors were Island girls..and they both played very well. The green in our colours might be that of envy. Starting off with a re- building job and with mostly first year students, we think Barb Mullally has moulded a team that was in contention in every game ‘ played up to this weekend. We'd like to see a change in the rules of this game that would permit coaching from the sidelines, as we think Barbara's young team could have fared better were she only allowed to give vocal advice and encouragement during play.
In Soccer, we were out- classed by the U.N.B. team, which scored a double shutout while re- gistering nine goals in the
hockey
with hockey. We would ex- pect that ‘two teams who had nothing to lose or gain in an exhibitiOn contest would, presumably, try to gain experience and training in the skills that might be needed in the league games ahead. Instead they came out playing as though they were old ene- mies intent upon destruc— tion and the spectators were treated (?) to an exhibition of rowdyism that bore little re- semblance to what we think intercollegiate sport should show. From our perch we, midway in the second period, thought of what it must have been like in the old Rcman Ampitheatre as the spectators roared for the lions to finish off the Christians. After the first five minutes it seemed to us that the Referee had lost all control and it was a relief when the second period was: cut short to stop the strife. It must have been lectures by the Coaches following the cessation of play, but the teams care out and played in the final period and in the game "the next
night. Score in the first game (A secondary statistic) was 6-4 for the visitors with Hal Schuman, Brian O'Stroski, Sanders McIsaac and Gary Trainor getting credit for our goals. ‘ The second game wasTmnch more enjoyable, albeit still a loss, as we jumped to a
2-0 lead early' in the gate on goals by Gerry‘McCarron and Thane Campbell, but
les Patriotes took a 4-2 lead and Trevor Crawford's goal at the 15 minute mark of the third period only made it close. Three games in tnree nights proved too much for the Panthers and they appeared listless as they dropped the final game of the weekend to fast skating Saint Mary's 10-5. Scoring for us were Norman Beck, Gary Trainor, Terry Palmer, Hal Schurman and Mike Ready.
To offer something of an excuse for the last two games, we might point out ' that Brian O'Stroski (away for a wedding) and the in- jured Callie MacPhail missing from our lineup.
Throughout the series, The Panthers had a musical

which we found most intri— guing. Chris Jones, Jamie Cudmore, Neil MacKenzie, Walter 'Jaeger and Bill Morrison all took turns guarding the Panther goal, all appearing quite capable, but none scintillating. We do not envy Coach Jack Hynes as he tries to make his final choice or choices. Nextaction will'be at the Forum on Saturday night
when Acadia will visit for
a pro-season game. The league opener for us will be on the 8th and 9th of October, when we go to Dal. and Acadia.
