     By Peter Hunt 
     
    
   
   
    
     U.P.E.l. soccer team in-

     MacKenzie score U.P.E.I.’s 
     
     first goal from a scramble in 
     
     front of the net. U.P.E.I.’s

     This week’s male athlete of r 
     
    
   
   
    
     the week is Glenn Smiley. 
     
     Glen scored one of the soccer 
     
     Panther’s goals in a 2-0 Win 
     
     over St. F.X., their lone game 
     
     of the weekend, and' played 
     
     what coach Gordie Wilson 
     
     called, “his best game of the 
     
     year.” A veteran in his fourth 
     
     year with the Club, Glen is a 
     
     native of Montreal who now 
     
     makes his year—long residence

     senior Business student. 
     
    
   
   
    
     foot shot in front of the net 
     
     by Glenn Smiley. U.P.E.I. 
     
     almost got-a third goal in the 
     
     lst half as Richard Pierre 
     
     Gilles was set up in front of 
     
     the net on a pass from Peter 
     
     Rawlinson, but was denied 
     
     the chance by the: St. F.X. 
     
     goaltender. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The 2nd half was mainly a 
     
     defensive fight, as each team 
     
     had a few good scoring 
     
     chances, but neither team 
     
     could materialize any goals. 
     
    
   
   
    
     By Angele Foley 
     
    
   
   
    
     A dashing cavalier leaps 
     
     from a balcony grasping 
     
     hold of a chandelier as 
     
     he swings to the ground. 
     
     He draws his sword and 
     
     advances ’ towards his 
     
     opponent. The latter 
     
     lunges at the cavlier who 
     
     parries the blade to the 
     
     side, and then ripostes. 
     
     ' The exchange continues, 
     
     first one giving ground, 
     
     and then the other, until 
     
     finally the cavlier with 
     
     his back against the wall, 
     
     has but one chance, and 
     
     lunges  A 
     
    
   
   
    
     If you can‘picture yourself 
     
     as the cavalier, then you’ll 
     
     enjoy fencing. The sport of 
     
     fencing evolved from the 
     
     swordplay of French noble- 
     
     men. The French terminology 
     
     which is still used today, is a 
     
     legacy from the days when a 
     
     duel could mean life or death.

     Fencing ' 
     
    
   
   
    
     'Today three different wea-t 
     
    
   
   
    
     pons are used in fencing: 
     
     foil, epee and sabre. Both 
     
     men and women fence, al- 
     
     though women' are usually 
     
     restricted to foil. 
     
    

    
     Fencing is a unique sport, 
     
     requiring both intellectual 
     
     and physical prowess. The 
     
     fencer has to be able to react 
     
     to his opponent’s movements 
     
     plot strategies, and execute 
     
     plans with speed and agility, 
     
     all within a matter of seconds. 
     
     It is a sport iii which the 
     
     individual must rely 'solely on 
     
     his own skills tovdefeat his 
     
     opponent.

     guing, don’t despair, there is.
