     We always feel it is diffi- 
     
     cult to produce an interest- 
     
     ing column any week when we 
     
     write on Thursday and it is 
     
     read on Tuesday (hopefully). 
     
     It is, however, much harder 
     
     this issue when the most 
     
     important games of the sea- 
     
     son are scheduled for the 
     
     intervening Saturday and 
     
     Sunday. In case you are not. 
     
     posted with what is com- 
     
     ing up next week-end we'll 
     
     give you the remaining ga- 
     
     mes on the schedule of the 
     
     three teams now remaining 
     
     in contention for a play- 
     
     off spot in our section. We 
     
     have two home games against 
     
     UNB and Moncton has two 
     
     games at home against STU & 
     
     Mount A. Lacking the crystal 
     
     ball, that has been borro- 
     
     wed for use in the forth- 
     
     coming: U.P. E.2.S.U.»elec- 
     
     tions, we can make no fore- 
     
     cast but will invite you to 
     
     do your own conjecturing. 
     
     Please God let us have the 
     
     playoffs here!!! 
     
    

    
     Going back to happenings 
     
     since our last issue we'd 
     
     like to make a social com- 
     
     ment about the lovely party 
     
     accorded Claude Lambert & 
     
     Mike Paiemont by the "Sat- 
     
     urday" team during what 
     
     was scheduled to be the fir- 
     
     st period of a hockey game. 
     
     Our Panthers were so deter- 
     
     mined to show these two ex- 
     
     patriates, now labouring 
     
    
   
   
    
     TALK we 
     
    
   
   
    
     for an otherwise somewhat 
     
     colorless Acadia team, how 
     
     they felt about having them 
     
     back in the icebox surface 
     
     for a “Welcome Home" party 
     
     that the Panthers seemed to 
     
     ignore the puck in their 
     
     efforts at entertainment. 
     
     When the teams first went 
     
     to their dressing rooms 
     
    

    
     the score was 3-0 for the 
     
     "Bad" guys. During the in- 
     
     termission it is said that 
     
     Vince Mulligan showed him- 
     
     self to be a real "Party 
     
     Pooper" and, after a short 
     
     speech, sent out the Sunday 
     
     team which quickly brought 
     
     the game under control by 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     THE CADRE, TUES., FEB. 19, 1974 Page 15. 
     
    
   
   
    
     scoring five goals in the 
     
     second period and going on 
     
     to a 7-4 win. We were glad 
     
     to welcome Claude and Michel 
     
     back to the campus and hope 
     
     they enjoyed the first per- 
     
     iod party! 
     
    

    
     On the road against St. Th- 
     
     omas our Panthers conducted 
     
     themselves much as expected, 
     
     winniming two games in com- 
     
     fortable fashion. The main 
     
    
   
   
    
     feature of this road trip 
     
     was Billy Doherty's out- 
     
     burst of five goals in the 
     
     second game.... 
     
    

    
     In basketball we were hop- 
     
     eful of a real win against 
     
     St. Thomas but the whole ga- 
     
     me left us puzzled. We SEE- 
     
     MED the better team but, qu- 
     
     ite late in the second half 
     
     we trailed by 19 points! A « 
     
     real exciting rally left us 
     
     only four short at the buz- 
     
     zer,.-but the game did not 
     
     seem to be between the two 
     
     teams but a four way compet-— 
     
     ition among the two coaches 
     
     and the referees...we thoug- 
     
     ht the most humorous spec- 
     
     tacle of the whole athletic 
     
     year was 5'5" Mike Connolly 
     
     forcibly restraining 6'8" 
     
     Dave Smith as he struggled 
     
     to make a vigorous protest.. 
     
     Both coaches seemed very 
     
     unhappy over the refereeing 
     
     and, as a consequence we 
     
     have been told, STU did not 
     
     choose to stay on and play lt 
     
     the second game. For what it 
     
     is worth in an exhibition 
     
     game we believe we, therefo- 
     
     re , won this one 2-0 by 
     
     default. This score does won- 
     
     ders at improving our defen- 
     
     sive record but what a dis- 
     
     aster to our already sad 
     
     offensive statistics!!!!
