Ickoy place Considerable time having elapsed since our last Jock Talk that trying,in January, to get thrills Out of early Decenber games is, like kissing your sister. We do supp05e, however, that we might refresh your recollection.

In hockey, against Acadia, on 3 December we coasted to an 11-3 win after jumping to a first period 6—1 lead. Scorers were Louis Lortie with 3, Paul Martin got 2 and

DENNIS HIGH singles were made by Larry Arsenault, Val Mitchell, David Cameron, Ken Burton, Danny Kinnear and Terry Devine. Next day our boys played an outstanding gate with Saint Mary's and we really believe they would have handed the undefeated league leaders a trimming if we had not been forced

to play .the last two periods with but three defencemen. /'Goals by Wayne SqUarebriggs, David Cameron and Wilfred MacDonald gave us a 3-1 lead in the opening period, the second was scoreless, but in the third the well- balanced SMU squad scored three to take one of the best games we have seen in a long while 4—3.

Since the break, we have played two exhibition games, taking the Charlottetown Eagles 3-2 in a game that wasn't that close. . .the most interest in the contest seeming to be the accident that happened to the beautiful blonde, who always adorns the Centre section, when she was attacked by a puck. We understand she's O.K. but, in future, will always watch the puck and not the players. Goals were scored by Shane Turner, Louis Iortie and Brian Cameron. Showing Danny Kinnear off to his home region, the Panthers took the Easter Kings All V Stars by an 8-5 count. In this game, Snags MCInnis stepped out for a period and Danny DesJardins went in the Panther nets for his baptism of fire.

This weekend the Panthers (4-4-1) play in the Forum tm MUST games. Dalhousie (4-2—2) on Saturday and St. F.X. , (5-3—2) on Sunday. We'll be without Terry Devine who'll be out, with a broken wrist, for a few weeks and Bob Mitchell is a doubtful starter. A full and noisy rinkful of fans would help our boys a lot. ‘lhe Saturday night game starts at 7:00 p.m. and the Sunday game at

In Acadia's Tournament our Panthers, who had not played for several weeks, 'lost to Laurentian 84-61 in the opener (Lloyd Pullen with 17 was our high) and to Saint Mary's 89—70 in their second game (Keith Strieter with 23 points and 18 rebounds was our high and Dave Arsenault was right behind with 22) . We averted a shutout, however, as we lanbasted McGill 102—79. in the final game as Brooklyn's gift to UPEI 5 Vince Murray, topped our scorers with 27. The team goes to X and SMU
