Bursary Deadline Changed! by Brian I odd In their ap p arent con tin u in g ca m ­ paign aim ed at lim iting the num ber o f students who receive Q u ébec bursaries, the provincial governm ent has changed the d ead line for ap p licatio n fo r Q u ébec bursaries to Ju n e 30th. W hile previously most students were able to wait until Sep te m b e r when their financial situ ation was a lot clearer, stu­ dents must now m ake their ap p lication in Ju n e to insure that they will have m oney in their p ockets in S e p te m b e r to pay fo r school.

T h e d e ta ils o f th ech an g es. which are quite te ch n ica l, are available from the Stu d en t Aid O ffice in the Pow ­ ell Stu dent Services Building at 3637 Peel Street on the upper cam pus. A p p lication form s are available from the Stu d en t Aid O ffice but students should bring a letter o f accep tan ce or a cu rrent ID card as p ro o f o f th eir atten d ­ ance at M cG ill to receive the new' appli­ cation form . M oving the d eadline fo r ap p licatio n s

appears to be part o f the continued cam paign by the P .Q . governm ent to limit the num ber o f students who receive bursaries despite moves by the federal governm ent to legislate the num ber o f students who receive aid. If you have any d ou bt ab ou t you r financial situ ation next fall and you might be eligible for Q uébec govern­ ment assistance it would be w orth your while to drop in and see the folks at the Stu d en t Aid o ffice b efore you leave for the sum m er.

hand plan. Every year fo r the past three, residents o f the four co-ed dorm s and R V C have been asked to skip a lunch and have the m oney donated to the S h rin e rs’ H ospital fo r C h ildren. Each year has proved to be an im m ense suc­ cess because every skip -a-lu n ch has raised ab ou t S I 200. T his money is used to help M cG ill student volu nteers buy things fo r en tertain in g the child ren at the hospital. S400 o f this y ear’s money was set aside fo r the afte rn o o n o f enter­ tainm ent. 1 n ad d ition, last year an oth er ^skip-a-lunch was held to aid student volunteers at the M ontreal N eurological In stitu te buy and stock a candy and m agazine cart for the patients there. T w o years ago, lunches were also given up to aid C rossroad s In tern ation al. But these are not the only com m unityminded aspects o f the residents. T h e upper three co-ed dorm s (G ard n er. M oison , and M cC o n n ell) have, fo r the past tw o years, donated m oney to the F o s te r P aren ts P lan o f C an ad a to help a boy nam ed D ram an e D ia n a who lives in M ali in W est A frica. T h e money is used to help support D ram an e and his com m unity. R esidents are asked to d o n ate ch an ge they find when they pack up in A pril. The first year saw $240 in change. This increased the follow ing year, and. accord in g to co o rd in ato r G len W ard , in his second year as A ssist­ ant D irecto r in G ard n er Hall, things look even better for this year. He’d like to rem ind all the residents that any change they’d like to d on ate can be given to the porter o f th eir dorm . U nlike previous years, both D ou glas Hall and R V C residents are being asked to help support D ram ane.

Exams M ark Weintraub by Colin McGregor T w o hundred years ago, ou r w oodsy, ou td oorsy fo reb earers navigated through the rivers o f life w ithout the aid o f so cia l insu rance, m odern m edicine, or m unicipal housing p ro jects. They were forced to rely upon them selves, and con seq u en tly they hunted fo r their own food ; they built their own houses, hewn fro m the native pine; and they clubbed their own w om en over the head and dragged them to beds that they had constru cted th e m s e lv e s . Life was hard fo r these men o f low hygenic stand ard s and tartan cloth s h irts -e x is te n c e was a difficu lt series o f tests, and there was now ay around it. R e a l m en . No quiche there. T o d a y , how ever, it’s all very d ifferent. P eople get to go to a U niversity betw een the ages o f 18 and 22 (o r th ereab o u ts) w here life is handed to them on a silver platter. We get our own b ooks printed f o r us, and we can tak e them out ot libraries with ou r little plastic cards w henever we feel like it. A b e L incoln had to w rite his own racy F ren ch novels to read at night back in the w oodshed - but we can buy them on Peel S treet w henever we feel like it. They are even individually w rapped, fo r ou r convenience. Y es. life is easy fo r the stud ent o f the 8 0 ’s, and we ta k e it all fo r g r a n te d . As Lord B eav erb ro o k o n ce said, “ In these days o f ease and splend ou r, we com m it fla tu la n c e a t w ill." He’s right, you know'. In 1783. the K ing could have had you shot for that. S o what do we have to do to enjoy this life o f R iley? A ll th at we have to do is to write a few piddling little exam s in D ecem b er, and in A pril. S o w hat? L ile is a series ol challenges, and exam s sim ply sep arate the men from the pederasts. Ju lia Child once said “ I f you can ’t stand the heat, get out o f my k itch en .’’ And she’s right, you know, even if she d i d say it in a very high voice. It’s a tough w orld, and e x a m in a tio n s serve as the u ltim ate test o f ou r nettle, ju s t like survival train in g or guerilla w arfare. T hey m easure ou r know ledge on the toughest y ard stick possible because when you are sittin g in a gym nasium with tw o thousand oth er students all pondering the sam e ep ic q u estio ns, all w riting the sam e essays, you are exp o sin g yo u rself to the p ro lessor w ithout the aid of a 1 hesaurus and saying. “ Here I am , ju d ge me if you w ill!” E xa m s are the lowest com m on d en om in ator, and t hat’s r e a l know ledge - no quiche there. W ould G ary C o o p e r have w ritten a paper? A b solu tely not. W ould “ S h a n e ” have w ritten a thesis rath er th an sh oo t ’em dead? O f c o u r s e n o t. W ould P a tto n have w ritten a thesis before m arching into Sicily ? C ’mon. A t the Law S c h o o l, they have 100% e xa m s, and no papers o f m id -term s. T his m akes a great deal o f sense, becau se you really do r o t have to show up fo r classes all sem ester. Y ou can stay at hom e, put you r feet up, eat C heesies and read the b ook s, why go into M cG ill five days per week? S ta y hom e, tak e it easy and show up fo r the exam s in D ecem b er, and in April. And if you feel n ostalgic fo r the life o f ou r fo reb ea rers, go out back and chop som e wood.

D ear Friends: P lease be kind to C olin. As is obvious from his colum n, he is not à well m an. Pretty soon you’ll be seeing his picture plastered on the backs o f n ational pu blications stand ing next to a sad-eyed Sally S tru th ers, with a cap tion reading: F o r years my heart w ent out to the m illions b f little burr-head ed children w hose bellies were sw ollen with m a ln u tritio n and w hose bodies were w racked w ith disease, to the sad faces o f those living in cou ntries that had eaten th eir co lo n ia l rulers and changed their nam es so that w hite people try ing to p ro n o u n ce them would get flustered . B ut then I m et C o lin . And the word p a t h e t ic to o k on a w hole new m eaning for me. S o you see, his ram blings in the colum n to my left should not be taken to o seriously; they are the produ cts o f a diseased m ind. P o o r C o lin is su ffering from exam fever. It strikes all o f us in som e degree. But the m eek and effem inate get it m uch w orse. C o lin ’s case is the w orst I’ve seen. Ignore his fevered ram blings ab ou t his “w oodsy ou td oorsy ” ancestors. H is fam ily on b oth sides were S c o ttish florists going back six lilac-filled generations. The only thing they ever hunted were gard enias and d elicate b am b o o baskets in the w ilderness ol G lasgow antiqu e shops.

E x a m s a ch a n ce to exp o se y o u rself to the pro fesso r? M o re crazed b abb ling. He b etter than anyon e know s th at this sort o f thing is best done in the priyacy o f a teach er’s office, w ithout anyon e pointing and giggling. W hat C o lin ’s colu m n proves is that exam s are d angerou s, horrid things indeed. Besides cau sin g his m alady, they also cau se stress, w hich in tu rn leads to acn e, which u ltim ately leads to ca n ce r in lab o rato ry rats. W orse yet. exam s cause studying! P eople w ho have never opened a b o o k , who have been at every D o u g P ub and have R ocked the K azbah nightly com e face to face with know ledge. T h e results are terrifying. Here are but a few exam ples: 1. C ram m in g fo r his physics exam . B ig Billy B o n eb an g er finally com prehen ds the co n cep t o f gravity in all its splend or. T h e result? O bsessed day and night with his d iscovery, he fails to rise to the o cca sio n and his girlfriend leaves him fo r a carb u n cle specialist. 2.

And as if this were not enou gh, let us not forget that exam s cau se invigilators. And in vig ilators, it appears, are invariably people from the places that Sally S tru th ers finds her poster children. C o n clu sio n ? E xam s cause im m igrants and thus exam s cause d rought, fam ine and shingles in Third W orld nations. W hat could be worse?

Y ou are the last people in the world to accu se the Tribune o f being “A propa­ ganda rag for a sm all clique ol K nee-jerk right wing m alcon ten ts.” T h a t the M cG ill D aily has been un­ a b le to present a clea r and unbiased re­ port on any m a jo r or m in or p olitical issue is not only well know , but sad and true. T h e one sided, narrow -m inded, d o g m a tic stand s th a t the D aily to o k on

such issues as El S a lv a d o r. S o u th A fri­ ca . A m erican F oreg in P o licy . Gay rights.

T h e ch aracter assassination o f anyon e that you consid ered “ U nenligh ten ed ” •was b latan t and degrading. Sad as it m ay be. the M cG ill D aily has ceased to be an exercise in student jo u r­ nalism .

B R O A D ’S H EA D R E V IS IT E T A by Nancy Martin A year ago, I w rote what I expected to be my last-ev er co n trib u tio n to M cG ill student jo u rn a lism . But then people (tw o people) begged and pleaded with me fo r m ore this year, I sw ear, though, this one that you 're reading now' is the last one. Ever. I prom ise. H onest. Un­ less, o f co u rse, you need a co rresp o n d ­ ent in New Brunsw ick next y ear... S o , kiddies, as it is the end o f the acad em ic year, and the end o f my 3 such years at M cG ill, we’re g oing to do a quick review. T h e to p ic is: I cam e to M cG ill, and what did 1 find? I found M cG ill, once a respected giant in N orth A m erican ed u cation, to have been reduced on m any levels, to a slo b b erin g old fo o l, begging fo r and greedily accep tin g fo r ad m ission anyone at all who ever had any desire to attend university. 1 found m any professors w hose a p ath etic attitu d es tow ard their jo b s reflected the ro ck -b o tto m adm is­ sions stan d ard s, in that it is virtually futile to attem pt to inspire intelligent, divergent d eb ate am ongst minds better suited for work on an assem bly line. I found a 400-lev el cou rse fo r which the requirem ents fo r 6 cred its were two 20-p ag e papers. P eriod . C lass atten d ­ a n ce was o p tio n al. I w rote the first paper in 4 hours and got a B -. 1 tried and tried to write the second paper, but found m yself m orally incapable o f d oing so. Instead, I w rote a letter to the p ro fesso r politely exp lain in g that 1 would have to accep t a K F in the cou rse as I cou ld n ’t accept a degree based on nothing. T h e p rofessor did not reply.

I also found Hugh M a cL e n n a n , a gentlem an o f rare wit and intelligence, with an unusual ab ility to see his own experien ces in a universal co n tex t. In Hugh M a cL e n n a n 1 found what 1 was lo o k in g fo r when 1 ca m e to M cG ill: som eon e w hose attitu d e tow ard life is to exp erien ce it in full, to feel love and jo y and pain, and strive to do good w ork, and m ake m istak es, and learn. 1 found som eon e I could adm ire and respect and learn from . A fter carefu lly consid ering my two years as a student at M c G ill, and w eigh­ ing the value o f the degree 1 would earn if I co n tin u ed , 1 decided to drop out. 1 had learned that true ed u cation is em ­ bodied in a state o f m ind, a way o f liv­ ing, w hich in its purest fo rm , is seldom found in classro om s. 1 learned that the q u asi-in tellectu als w hich one finds in such p ro fu sion at universities are people fo r w hom 1 feel very sorry, as they miss so m uch in life. W hat I found at M cG ill was a som e­ what rarefied slice o f life: rarefied be­ cause m ost o f the people surrou nding me were very long on th eory, very short on exp erien ce in living; and a slice o f life because th e exp erien ce involved good tim es and bad, fear and fury, struggle and profit. 1 learned a great deal. M ost o f what I learned was a b o u t ed u cation al processes and in stitu tion s, and the peo­ ple w ho spend their lives buried in them . W hat I found at M cG ill was the best o f tim es and the w orst o f tim es. G o o d ’bye, M cG ill. It’s been real.

Principal’s Message W e are now ap p ro ach in g the closing m om ents o f the acad em ic y ear 1982-83. It is a tim e o f pressure and stress fo r m ost o f you. T h e re are final classes to be attended, papers to be researched, exam s to be w ritten. S p rin g is in the air, but it is likely you do not have the tim e to take full ad vantage o f its presence. 1 would like, in this final issue o f the T rib u n e fo r the year, to wish all o f you great success in handling the w ork that rem ains to be d one. 1 hope the results tu rn out well fo r you, and th at the sum m er th a t follow s will be a happy one, with warm full days, and many op­ p o rtu n ities to d o all the things th at you enjoy best.

PresidentElect’s Message Being on the brink o f sum m er holi­ days is an inherently jo y o u s occasio n . T h e pressures o f exam s will soo n be over, the- T e rra ce R estau ran t will re­ open ou tsid e o f the R ed p ath L ib rary and the S tu d s (S tu d en ts’ S o cie ty ’s illus­ triou s b aseball team ) will attem p t to re­

gain its cham p ion sh ip title over all M cG ill d ep artm ents. F o r m ost students, sum m er m eans a break from the rigors o f acad em e and the cou ntless pressures o f student life. Y et fo r so called student leaders at M cG ill, we are on the brink o f a very difficu lt tim e. In light o f the recently lost dues increase referendum , the Stu d en ts’ S o ciety is facing the w orst fin an cial sit­ uation since receivership and will have to go through a severe austerity pro­ gram . T h e five individuals who m ake up you r E xecu tiv e C o m m ittee will have to develop creativ e ways to im plem ent the im pending cuts, with m inim al dam age to p rogram m ing and services.

Publishing at McGill Anne MacLennan Stu d en t jo u rn a ls and m agazines may be d ifficu lt to find on a n atio n al level, but th ere is no scarcity o f student pub­ lishing at M cG ill University. In the past few years there has been an upsurge in the Facu lty o f A rts. T h e initia­ tive fo r such publishing ventures has been sustained by the A rts and S cien ce U ndergraduate So cie ty o f M cG ill Uni­ versity. T h e A S U S program o f support fo r jo u rn a ls has provided the basis fo r the found ing and continu ed existen ce o f arts and science jo u rn a ls on cam pus. T h e g reatest bulk o f grants fo r these journ als com es from the A S U S and in som e cases this im petus is supplem ented by ad d ition al aid from the F a cu lty of A rts and the P ost G rad u ate S tu d en ts’ Society. Last Thu rsday a very successful and w ell-attended launching party was held in h on or o f the first issue of R u b ic o n , at T h e W ord B o o k sto re . F ollo w in g this first issue, the jo u rn a l will be published every A pril and N ovem ber. It is a forum

co m er to M cG ill U niversity. Its first issue appeared in F eb ru ary this year. It is a new sletter rath er than a jo u r n a i or m agazine and will ap p ear on a m onthly basis. T w o m ore issues o f the S o c ia l S cien ce F o ru m will be printed this year. It includes b rief accou n ts o f current re­ search in the social sciences by m em bers o f the M cG ill com m unity. A second fea­ ture o f the new sletter is an inform ation section that lists guest lectures, co n fer­ ences and inform ation ab ou t aw ards and grants. Stu d en ts in the linguistics d epartm ent o f M cG ill U niversity are cu rrently org anizing th eir own p u blication in th eir field. T he W orkin g P ap ers in L in ­ gu istics published at the U niversité de M o n tréa l was one o f the few forum s fo r the pu blication o f linguistic research. H ow ever, the p ro ject has been a b an ­ doned at that university and M cG ill students hope to keep the jo u rn a l going at M cG ill.

S h e is the president o f the M atu re Stu d en ts A sso cia tio n , an org an ization w hich officially cam e into being in 1980. T h e a sso ciatio n offers study skill w orkshops, referral services, a new sletter, so cials, and the use o f a lounge (A rts 136) in an e ffo rt to bring m atu re stud ents to g eth er and keep them inform ed. “ W hen 1 cam e here,” said B rigitte, “ 1 felt isolated from the people who were supposed to be my peers. 1 was lonely. 1 had ju s t left the U .S . and 1 w anted to establish friendships. T h en I found the M atu re Stu d en ts A sso cia tio n .” B rigitte was im m ediately elected as a U I rep. and was surprised , and rath er relieved, to find that her problem s were m ore com m on than she had im agined. M eeting oth er m ature students gave her the op p ortu n ity to air her grievances to a sy m p ath etic and sensitive group.

“ Y o u know , m atu re students have a wide range o f reasons for being here. T h e ir values and exp erien ces differ. W hen you com e back to sch o o l, you tak e you r studies m ore seriously, and there’s a com petitiveness, a strong drive to excel, and a desire to really g et s o m e ­ thin g ou t o f you r p ro g ram ." B rig itte sees a need fo r a big push to integrate m ature students into the uni­ versity. S h e says the D ean o f Stu d ents O ffice, in p articu lar K ay S ib b a ld , has given the organ ization a lot o f support, but m ore is needed. T h e M atu re S tu ­ dents A sso ciatio n needs aw areness and involvem ent from all its p o ten tial m em ­ bers. B rigitte urges m atu re students to phone 2 8 2 -0 5 1 3 or drop by the lounge and find out what is happening. “ I’m not sure if m atu re students are being ostracized or w hether they are os­ tracizin g them selves, but I do know that we are here to provide an aren a fo r air­ ing their con cern s if nothing else, and we’re going to keep trying to get m ore people involved.”

Three oth er branches o f the U niversity o f Q u ebec stated they had no student pu blication s at all. A side from T e P rofil, all other news­ papers claim ed grants through their student governm ent as a sou rce o f fund­ ing.

Eniko is finishing her third year in A rts, record -h old er in the CI AU & 3m diving events, O utstan d ing D iv ier A w ard-w inner at the C IA U C ham ps three years running. M cG ill M V P (diving) three years running, and, m ost recently, was awarded the M cG ill A th le te -o f-th e -Y e a r A w ard, the M urial V. R o sco e Aw ard. I his aw ard is the highest one given to an individual w om an student in her grad u atin g year lo r p ro ficien cy and leadership in a th let­ ics.

Dickens captured the m en’s equ ival­ ent, the F o rb e s T ro p h y , at the A th letic Aw ards B an qu et, on M ar 25. He is fin­ ishing his third year o f M ed icine, and has been a vital cog in the R edm en S o c c e r m achinery that has brought M cG ill its second consecu tiv e C IA U Cham ps.

T e a m o f th e M o n th T h e team o f the m onth fo r M a rch is the B ad m in ton team . T h is m u ch-ne­ glected varsity team has ju s t com pleted its best season ever. T hey won the Q U A A C h am p ionship s recently, to end a long history o f near-m isses. W ithin its fram ew ork, several individuals stood out: B eena N arw ani, R oevel Gu/ntan, Uouise Jo h n s o n , and A m os Peres.

A n d n ot a sin gle sw eatsu it was seen all evening. H ere fo llo w s a p la y -b y p la y à la D ick Irvin (th e M.

Coach Hubert treated them to ten (10) bottles o f bubbly at S ir W innie’s. Annette Kiss lived up to her nam e, w earing the stunningest dress ol the evening; a black fishnet body stocking. • Dinner: A bagpiper led in the head table. G ra ce was said by killer eager Willie Hinz. And no. the man is not p erfect: Y es, he has won the R hod es sch o larsh ip , and yes. he is the recipient o f u n co u n ta b le a th le tic aw ards, and yes. he does m aintain an incredible G PA , but no, he can 't say grace. He must have either been really nervous, or else he was ju s t on d ru g s...oh w ell...th e rugby rowdies hardly let him finish. • Hors d’oevres consisted o f nondescript cold vegetables peas, beans, and corn (w ho let the B M H stall in the k itchen?), and tasteless dev iled egges. all glazed with steel-belted rubberized gelatin. 1 o b oot, the dish was accom panied by L aurence W elk’s greatest hits. S o m e call it m uzak (a cce n tu a te the a a ck k k l). • Soup was next, and it was good. It was som e sort o f vegetable, but nice and hot and tasty. O bv iously the B M H m utiny had been squelched. It was at ab ou t the soup stage that inlam ou s rugger, that ep itom e o f the term ‘o b n o x io u s’- Pierre M cLean started m o ose-callin g through his funnel. No fem ale m ooses (m eece?) showed up.

At the head tab le, all were busy tu ck in g in to the m eal. Dick Irvin spent a happy tim e yakking with (o r at?) Dr. Gladys Bean (A ssistant D irecto r of A thletics).

McGill: Great Moments in Sports by Ace Baker M y. how tim e Hies. Y es. the year has draw n to a close, and soo n all o f you long-tim e cam pu s ath letic supporters will be departing this blessed retreat fo r a sum m er out in the real world, and all it has to o ffer (such as U S F L fo o tb a ll, N H L p layoffs, the P G A to u r, the E x p o s, etc.). W ait! Hold on a sec- if only fo r the sake o f nostalgia (rem em b er back in '8 2 -’83 M ab el?), let’s sit back and recall som e o f the finer m om ents o f the sports year. Here they are. a q u ick rundow n o f only a few o f those now -im ortal ‘ M cG ill: G reat M om ents in S p o rts': 1. September 2 5 ,1 9 8 2 — McGill Redmen vs. Queen’s Golden Gaels. F o o tb a llregular season gru dge-m atch. O k ay , so we got cream ed. T h at doesn't m atter. You would never have remembered- had I not told you. S o why then does it qualify as a ‘great m om ent in s p o r ts T I ry to re-visualize it sports fa n s - the packed stadium , the rabid fans, the sun shining, the post-'gam e rioting . . . T his reporter has seen Q ueen's play at oth er sch o o ls, and believe me, it's strictly high sch o o l y'know , a lew painted faces, a tru m pet or tw o. a little noise in the bleachers. But it's the attra ctio n o f the big city that does it the big social event on the Q ueen’s calen d ar that has becom e the M o n trea l ro ad -trip . W hy? R ivalry. T h e top sch oo l in the cou n try, the best stad iu m , a helluva fo o tb all team to boot (no. 2 in the cou ntry going into that gam e). It has to be the most intense rivalry in the cou ntry, gang what som e refer to as the ‘ R ose Bow l o f C an ad a’. And a sp ectacle it was. N o less than 17 busloads o f Q u een ’s fans, painted purple and to tin g anim al skulls. T h e beer was flow ing. T h e band was playing. And there was fo o tb a ll to o . T h e M cG ill defense was riddled by the Q ueen's air a tta ck , while the offense would tu rn over the ball every tim e a drive seem ed to be m ounting. T h e 30-1 loss was a rude aw akening for the previously undefeated R edm en. w hose e a rlie r victories had included a sixth straight Shau ghnessy C u p victory. B ack to the crow d: S p e cia l th an k s to the engineers fo r their heroic halftim e antics to disorient the Q ueen's cheerlead ers, band, and p ran ksters; to the rugby team for its truly noble d efense of the goal posts after the gam e; and to Psi U psilon F rate rn ity fo r gener­ ously housing the crowd ’til the wee hours via an im prom ptu post-gam e party. W ait ’till next year, sam e tim e, sam e place . . . 2. October 2, 1982— McGill R FC vs. Harvard Crimson. Rugby A nnual C o v o C u p gam e. Ah yes, recall that lazy a ftern o o n up at F o rb es field, where fans lined the natu ral tu rf, basking in the sun and suds, shou ting their obscenities at n o -o n e and everyone in p articu lar (R u g b y fans are the greatest). M eanw hile, the inspired M cG ill R F C hacked, raked and rucked, m auled, brawled and shm ueked the C am brid g e side in a decisive 15-3 victory. By thus dism issing the pride of the Ivies, the M cG ill R u b g y -F o o tb a ll clu b proved its ab ility to deal with the finest colleges in the land; a sweep at C o rn e ll later in the season would con firm this claim . 1 hree other gam es on the slate ( B 's. C 's. and L ayD 's) provided an en tertaining and m ost e n jo v a b ie d a y for all. A hot barbequ e and even hotter bash follow ed th e settin g sun, and a n o th er M cG ill great m om ent in sp orts becam e a M cG ill great m om ent in sports history. 3. October 30, 1982— McGill M artlets vs. New York Yeowomen. Field H ockey O W 1A A sem i-fin als. O h, what a gripping dram a. M o lson stadium has rarely seen this class o f nail-b iter. A fter a 12-gam e undefeated streak .an d a 2-0 victory over W estern in the q u arte r-fin als, our field hogs dug in fo r a tough m atch vs. the hogtow n bullies. R eg u latio n play ended in a 2-2 tie. Now get this: not single, no, forget double, but we're talk in ' overtim e here, and still no decision. W ell sports fans, it (th e O n ta rio ch am p ion sh ip , and a C l AU berth no less!) had to be decided on penalty s tro k e s and all 1 can say is th at if any of you rem em ber the East G erm anyF ra n ce W orld Cup soccer sem i-fin al last sum m er, you can be assured that we’re on the sam e wave length. W hen the dust cleared , the girls from New Y o rk had netted tw o to the M artlet one. and had pulled v icto ry from ou r grasp. A m om ent of silence sports fans . . . . 4. November 13, 1982 — McGill Redmen vs. Victoria Vikings. S o c c e r C IA U ch am p ion sh ip . I suppose everybody know s this story by now. But ya g o tta love the way those goo>e pim ples keep cornin' back. A fter finally unloading C o n co rd ia via a 4-1 v ictory in the q u a rte r finals, and a q u ick dash out east to ham m er U N B in the sem is by a 2-0 score, the stage was set. If you ever hear som eon e say that scoreless gam es are dull, sm ack him or her w ith a wet herring fo r m issing this one. It w asn’t until 5 1 :1 5 into the gam e that the lone goal o f the m atch was scored. T h e heroics were provided by reserve forw ard H isham A bdel R ah m an , on precision passing
