on T.V. , that this was just a rerun that we

had seen before. As a matter of fact we cannot récall UPEI ever beating a S.M.U. hod<ey team! Saint Dunstan's did but in nearly all UPEI

games the script has been that SM) gets an early lead and UPEI struggles m with a futile "Catch— up" effort. So it was in this game in whidn SMU ran into early penalty trouble but, at full strength, scored three incredible goals in 29 seconds! Later cn Brian'Ostroski got a brace of markers while Shane Carr netted one for our losing cause.

Crippled Rick Hill and Danny Kinnear (with an adorable daughter at his side) watdied the game from the sidelines and neither will be in shape to play for quite some time. We regret to report that Kenny Burton hit the butt end of an oppment's stick with his mouth and suffered such extensive damage

to at least two teeth that our insurance premiums may be increased next year. For this

obvious play Kenny was not penalized! The team goes on the road for the next two weekends, X and Dal to be followed by Acadia and S.M.U.

In basketball, in the Tip-fo Tournament in Wolfville we won over Nbunt Allison quite handily in the first round 87-72 with Larry McGee being our leading

In the

scorer with 36. final, however, the powerful hometown nationally ranked Acadia quintet whomped us 95—47 with our Larry McGee chipping in with 26. The first league game here will be on the 23rd when we host Acadia. The season is still young and coach Kevin expects the hard work he is handing out to his charges will make them contenders for playoff honours.

Hermie MacNeil‘s basketball Pantherettes made their league debut a winning one last Friday as they outscored the girls from Nemorial University 53-33. Alysom Mamell led the way for us with 15 points. This is me more game than we won in the league all of last seasm! Cn , . Saturday the girls played an exhibition game against N.S.A'.C. and trimphed again, this time 50—42, with Susan Batt leading the way with 11.

We were quite surprised to learn that our rtémarks of last week‘ with regard to the language used

/

around the penalty box, were interpreted to mean that we were shocked. After several years in the army and also having associated with many varied types throughout life we should be shocked? What nonsense! Dur—iE‘I-g—

the past week, however, we have discussed with several knowledgeable people on campus what

ALLISON MAXWELL .

we regard as an ObVious decline in the quality

of profanity. One learned gentleman thought a study into this

subject would be an excellent field for an English major to explore. Wecan recall, in army days, getting a dressing down from a permanent force Regimental Sergeant Major. We had committed the heinous crime of having an anklet splashed by a passing vehicle! Without using the same phrase twice he cast aspersions on the legitimacy of our ante— cedents for several generations past and pointed us out as an obvious prmf of the Darwinian theory. After several minutes of virulent vilification he left us white and shaken BUI‘ with a reluctant admiration for his extensive vocabulary. point is that what does shock us, is the present day limited range exhibited when expressing irritation. Were the protagonists limited to a 25 letter alphabet, with a skip between "E" and "G" their arguments would sound like a spirited Sunday School discussion! We by nomeans advocate extensive study in this subject and, with the present 10» grade of proficiency, we do believe that those who no» make weak attempts at what was once an art are so far behind that they really have no future in this field and should turn aside and use their ' talents in anotheridirettim!
