from The Guelph Student Lounge Association to the Conestoga College Guelph Student Association. This was immediately rejected because it would imply that Conestoga College owned the Guelph Student Association. On the next draft the name Guelph Student Association of Conestoga College will be presented. The College’s Athletic Direc-

It seems a little foolish to me that contestants from as far away as Texas and Florida would travel all the way to Kitchener to compete for the

research the feasibility of a minimum property standards bylaw in the area. If the bylaw were put into effect it would give city council the power to force property owners to maintain their property to a certain degree. Who lit the fire under city council? A few complaints made by residents about the state of disrepair of some properties and neighbourhoods. This means that if your neighbor were to complain to his alderman that your lawn wasn’t cut as short as his, council could come to you and make you cut your lawn or face a fine.

Soon they will tell you what property you can buy and where you can live and how many children you can have. This is not a bylaw for the benefit of the majority it is one to please a few, a minority! We would be hypocritical if we let such a bylaw

These people don’t keep up their yards and the students have not the time, energy or funds to do it. to

bubbly master of ceremonies always declares that “all the girls are winners.” If that’s the case, there should be 19 girls parading around North America with the coveted Miss Oktoberfest crown, knowing that they are the queen of the drunken bash that infests our city every October. I’d be inclined to take it as a sign of physical imperfection if I’d lost a beauty contest, knowing that I have been doomed to view the world through two holes cut out of a paper bag. Yet these same girls who lose this time, will probably be back next year to try to avenge their previous losses. If they lost before, they’ll probably lose again people usually don’t get any prettier as years go by. But then again, the competition may be uglier next year. Why it is even called a beauty contest is beyond me. If a girl can’t win on looks alone, maybe she can still win

The government, through the Ministry of Colleges and Universities, has responded to market disruptions and economic pressures by re-thinking the opendoor policies of the fifties and sixties.

the opera Tommy really gained the group recognition as did the film version in 1974. The movie included Townshend and Entwistle as priests. Moon as Uncle Ernie and Daltrey in the lead as

Tommy. not uncommon to see Daltrey taking a stab at acting, since he has played other roles in films such as McVicar and It’s

Legacy.

The idea for a rock opera grew from a mini opera Townshend and the Who had. previously recorded called A Quick One While He’s Away. Townshend would later try once again with another rock opera called Quadrophenia.

He worked for Life Magazine before he was 20 and intermittently throughout his career, resigning several times over disputes on how his work should be edited.

NHL teams

burned

by overtime added to season. by Greg Neath

I’m sure that everyone knows by now that NHL has added a five minute overtime this year to try and reduce the number of ties that occur. The idea of regular season overtime had been discussed year after year until all sides finally agreed to add it to the 1983-84 season. For years I was sure that the NHL needed overtime. It seemed to be a waste for two teams to battle for 60 minutes to decide nothing. I even believed that a game might as well not have been played if it ended up tied. This view must have been very popular since overtime has been adopted, but now that overtime is here I’m not sure whether it will help hockey or not. Usually when a tie occurred one of the teams had to work extremely hard just to even up the

play five extra minutes. If the New Jersey Devils play a great game and are able to tie the Edmonton Oilers 2-2 in Edmonton they still have to play overtime. Edmonton, with more talent and a stronger bench will beat the Devils nine times out of 10. The Devils deserve a point if they can tie any team. Already this season, Washington, who are no lon^r a pushover but are still young, were beaten 8-7 in overtime by Philadelphia. Washington played well enough for three periods but were beaten in overtime by a more experienced team. The Capitals deserved something for staying even with Philadelphia, especially in a 14 goal shoot-out. There is something that can be done to help solve this problem. Overtime can still be used but a team would still gain one point for a tie even if they lose in overtime. The team who wins in overtime can be awarded two, or even three points. This idea makes so much sense it is strange that it was not considered when they discussed overtime during the off-season. to

This season, many poorer teams will finish with much lower point totals because of overtime. The better teams will pull even farther from the bottom and the bottom will get deeper.
