by Mickey Place Well two wins out of six games MAY be an inprovanent over recent efforts, but a .333 average is deemed good only as a batting average in baseball. This past weekend, we lost two in hockey, (They were league games too). At the Knock- out Tip Off Tournament
we split a pair in both Pantherette and Panther action. The Pantherettes started things off well
by gaining a very satis- fying win over the girls from St. F.X. (who are in the league rated superior to ours) 80—64, as sharp- shooting Cathy Chandler
Two out of six ain't bad
netted 29 points and Dam Macleod 18. Our girls led from the start and the X—ettes were never
in contention. Alas, homver, in the final game against the Acadia ladies, we bowed out 57—46 in a contest that was reasonably close until the final minutes when the more experienced Acadia girls drew away. Velvet Charters, a new- comer from Sussex, N.B. , led our scorers with 20. The girls make their first home appearance
of the season on Friday
' at 6:00 P.M. when they'll
play hostess to the St. F.X. girls in their" last exhi- bition game before their league«start. While on the distaff side of ath- letics, we'd like to
offer sincere congratu- lations to Barbara Mullally who, this week, received an Honours Award from the Atlantic Provinces Physical Education Society recog- nizing her record of par- ticipation in her field.

Fans can see the Panthers this Friday at 8:00 as they take on the Alumi in the annual contest which induces oldsters like myself to remark "My, hasn't he put on weight! 1" league play opens here with Acadia on the 19th. ' In Hockey, we opened our league season at Dalhousie and the game was much closer than ' the 6-1 defeat would indicate, as we trailed by only 2—1 after the second, nainly because of a good performance. by goalie Jamie Cudnore. The third period, however, 'belonged to Dalhousie and they outshot us by wide nargin, as they scored four unanswered goals. Dcrmie Morrison, rotund raconteur of the Guardian, points out that it was, in part, an Island victory as four of the Dalhousie squad
Mad)onald, had four assists in a brilliant game.
expectorating ("Spit" is a horrid word) on an opponene This certainly camot
be deemed as a defensive treasure, but it certainly is offensive. We cannot see nuch value in it either, it does not help to score
a goal and it does not deter an opponent. Inasmuch as most of the players Chen bubble gum, we can't under- stand its use. Now in the faroff days of our youth many athletes chewed tobacco and a squirt of Hickey's mist might be a real deterrant, but sweet smelling saliva from
bubble gum??? Besides
what would Emily Post say?? Penalties played a large part in the result of this game as Dal scored three goals on power plays as our boys sat out for 37 of the 63 minutes inposed. Next day, at Woilfville, we led 5-4 with less than 5 minutes to go, but Acadia came back with three unanswered scores in the closing stages to win 7-5. Scoring for us were Callie MacPhail, Mike Ready and Norman Beck while hard working Gary Trainor had a pair. Our league record is now 0-2 as we head into this weekend which will feature St. F.X. Saturday at 2:00 P.M. and Saint Mary's (3-0) on Sunday at 2:00 P.M. Wouldn't it be fun to see us lose a couple of fights and win a pair of games.” — '
