Loy:ola student centre . .

Referendum finishes today by Rick Pawlak

On Thursday and Friday of last week, day students at Loyola ·college were asked to make a decision, or rather to ratify the decision of the L.M.S.A. in its plans to build a campus cent re . Although many possibilities had been explored in the quest for a new student union or even the renovation of some structure al­ready on campus (e.g. Hingston Hall) each of these was careful­ly studied before being discard­ed as impractical or unfeasable .

The "Planning Committee"

Sir Georg§.

which made these discisions was made up of Administrators, fa­culty and the L.M .S .A. executive. The Administration was included in this committee since the edi­fice would stand on college pro­perty and also any loan, which would be necessary, would go through the college as the banks take a dim view of the liquid as-sets of student associations. '

A brief history of the proposed centre was distributed through­out the student body but it con-

tained only the jist of what had taken place.

In a conversation with Mr. J . Stirling Dorrance, director of development at Loyola, it was learned that the whole idea of a " Student Union" was conceived in the early sixties when govern­ment money was flowing into uni­versity coffers indiscriminatly.

He went on to say that at that time it was common practice for a college or university to cons-

truct a building knowing full well that it would be unable to con­tinue payments thus forcing (using this term quite lossely) Quebec to step in with added funds for economic relief but that in the present economic situa­tion this type of chicanary would not be accepted by the provincial government and that any legal contracts in regards to money which the college enters into would have to be fulfilled b.v the college.

Vol 3 Issue 22 March 1 1971

The original plans called for a 2.2 million dollar structure com­plete with new bookstore, cafe­teria and student association of­fices in addition to a student lounge and other facilities but due to the inavailability of cash the obsession on the part of the Lutfy administration to have a union building the half-million dollar design was accepted as a compromise (without consulta­tion with thus in conclusion the students will get what they de­serve.

cently by the Dean of Students Office, on the subject of Student Housing, it was recommended that the university not undert a­ke any large projects designed to supply studen t accomoda­tions. The report stated "Given the minimal interest now being displayed for university sup­ported housing by tudents, and the general state of uncertainty about the future paths this uni­versity will be taking, it i re­commended that Sir George with hold any committments that it may consider making with re pect to becoming involved with studen t housing facilities."

" It is further recommended that more detailed examinations be undertaken annually." Sug­gested methods of carrying out

(2) a list of married students be deve­loped and stored with other tu­dent data for future use, and (3) a further examination of the population of day students be carried out annually to determi­ne their commuting distances and time ranges."

'We have the roommate of your choice' by Mike Dufort

Housing

cont. from pg . l "Need a Roommate?" the bro­

chure asks. "What type? What character?

What figure? What motivation? What sign? How many?"

"We have the roommate of your choice", it claims. · Without aying much more. the Matching Ro~mates Company, lo­cated at 65 Sherbrooke t . Ea t provide a unique service to the Montreal community.

The company in it seventh week of operation erve to a -ist those who are without living

quarter find a suitable room­mate. It has been succe sful thu far in matching up 40 indi­viduals.

Tony Sokolowski, part owner of th~ service, told The Paper that some people had gotten the wrong impre sion of thi newly­formed service.

'They thought it was a shack­ing up thing", he said.

Sokolowski recalled an incident where he received a call from a gentleman of about 45 request­ing that they service him a 2). year-old female roommate · with ~n appartment and lots of mo­ney.

Needless to say, Mr. Sokolow­ski told the gentleman that if he ever· found uch a girl, he would room with her himself.

The service, however, only finds roommates of the same sex. Interested persons are re­quired to fill out a short que -tionnaire in the company's ap­partmen t office.

"We ask them some basic questions - what they are like and what type of person they

Women's Lib rally support

"We want abortion laws re­pealed; we want them complete­ly taken out of the criminal code", said Penny Simpson, act­ivist in the Montreal Women's Liberation Movement and a member of its Abortion Action Collective, speaking to a small audience at S.G.W.U.'s Hall Building recently.

The Friday afternoon meet­ing which drew 14 students, was

. held to rally support for a de­monstration to be held on March 8th, International Women's Day. March 8th was declared Inter­national Women's Day in 1910 after the first major women's textile strike in ew York, and ince that time, has been a date

for militant action for women 's rights.

"We want abortion available to poor as well as to the rich" , the activi t declaimed in tat­ing that 20,000 women in Cana­da are hospitalized each year as a result of illegal butchered abortions.

Mi Simp on aid that in Montreal , only three hospitals have boards to consider abor­tions.

"The rest are Catholic hos­pitals" she added.

She also indicated that giving birth to a child i ten times worse than getting an abortion if done properly.

Simpson warned that those considering abortion should not go to ew York.

The people questioned were divided up according to sex, fa ­vulty, standing within the uni­ver ity according to year, and age . Citizen hip, marital statu , and re idential pattern of the respondents were determined .

tudent were a ked to e ti-mate the average number of hour pent daily in commuting because it wa anticipated that the desire to live in university hou ing would be related to the amount of time pent commu­ting.

Another item asked students whether they planned to remain at home or to move during their future at Univer ity. The lar­ge t proportion , 44',, indicated that they plan to remain at home with their parent while 35', an ­ticipated a move in the near future. The remainder 21' , were uncertain as to their future ar­rangements .

claim to be infallible. Once matched, the roommates have four months to find out whether they are compatible.

"Within a four month period we supply them with our servi­ce free of charge", said Soko­lowski.

Most people, Mr. Sokolowski feels, are satisfied with t he ser­vice.

Miss Marily Geisman, a Mc Gill student, used the service and found a suitab le roommate the same day.

T he only person that cancel-

led the service, Sokolowski said, did o because she had already found a roommate on her own.

Sokolowski said that he and his partner Fauzi Saber got the idea from a similar matching roommate service operating in Boston.

This unique service can be had for $15 ($10 for students).

The service is provided at a lower cost for those who cannot afford so much, usually welfare recipients.

Mr. Sokolowski said that he and his partner are thinking of changing the name of the com-pany.

"While the name, Matching Roommate , is perf~ctly under-tandable in English", he said,

The following proposed amendment to Constitu­tion of the Evening Students' Association was passed by a unanimous Motion of the Execut ive Council on February 18th 1971. It will be submitted for approval by evening students in a referendum on March 15th to 19th, 1971.

office of the President of the Association,

dents who exercise the franchise in

...... the~~~~~~~~

Editorial ~-----------page_ Judiciary Committee.

In a recent memo to Dr. Frazer, Secretary of Universi­ty Council, Wayne Gray, President of The Evening Student. Association recommended that a judiciary committee be established to insure the legality of the legislation by the Student Associations.

Council recognized that this was a valid problem and asked Dr. O'Brien to establi h an ad-hoc investigation into the problem. As it stands now, there is little or no recourse for anyone who feels that they are getting the proverbial shaft by any of the three governments.

The possibilities of such a committee are innumerable. But I would hate to be there because under the present system, they would receive more mail than the post office during Christmas rush.

Such a committee is de perately needed. This year, concerning the Day Student,, As ociation alone, it would not be out of line to e timate that over half of the legisla­tion pa sed was unconstitutional soley due to the means used to ram it through.

The constitution was treated like just another piece of "Delsey's Finest" - used to clear away the reams of waste created by the total incompetence of every one on the S.L.C.

The sooner such a committee is created the sooner tudent will have a method of recourse that could possib- ·

ly work.

Letters ... Dear Sir:

On Thur day evening. Februa­ry 18th, 1971. I had the dubious pleasure of being refused per­niission to enter an almo t emp­Ly "staff" elevator on the 11th floor.

It i bad enough having no descending escalator from fllors 10, 11, 12 but exiting is complicated by the fact that peo­ple fill the elevators going up to ensure room fro the descent. And then we have our usual non­operating escalators, up and/or down.

Our Physical Plant Depart­ment has reached a new low (high?) in featherbedding when they place a man in an automa­tic elevator to tell people they can't get on.

I would say that with a mere 345 staff members versus 17,000 students that the ratio of second class to first class citizens is a bit much (like 49: 1).

What are we evening students getting for the 10c r increase in fees besides dirtier classrooms? Can't we go on a harmless ele­vator trip to forget the discri-

mination practised against u ??

A TAXING PROBLEM hy Wayne Vibert

I picked up a non-Quebec T-1 Short Form Tax Re­turn from the Department of Revenue' office on Dorche ter Blvd. W. and calculated the per onal i1,­come taxes payable for various taxable income as set out below.

The federal tax rate i con tant across the country with the provincial tax rate making the difference. That difference ranges up to 11' ,. depending on your domicile. In the table below, Manitobans are hit the hardest with .B. next and so on . The group under "others" includes Quebec and that makes us one of the lowest taxed(per onal) provinces in Canada.

My calculation did not allow fo! dividend credits or other complications. For Quebec, I took the rates of tax right off the table . For the re t of the pro­vinces I did the long calculation.

All Canadians in the "other" column have the pri­vilege of using a table ,o figure out their tax. The rest of the provinces force a detailed calcula~ion on their tax-payer . Quebec is the only province in which Canadians must ubmit two income tax returns.

I. H. Asper, in a column in The Montreal Star (Feb. ~5, 1971) passed on a few comments on the burgeon­ing government spending syndrome we appear to be in.

He noted that all government levels will take in about $30 billion in revenue , up from $11 billion in 1960. And he noted that government spending is growing at a much· fa ter rate than the economy. In 1960, governments took in ahout 27 ', of the G. .P. whereas for the past fi cal year they will be gobbl­ing up about 38', . He reiterated comment I had made previou ly regarding the expanding octopus of govern­ment bureaucracy that is taking a greater part of our population into the ci,·il en·ice. He mentioned that in 1960 the Federal government had a mere 150,000 employees whereas in 1970 that figure had blos omed out to 250.000 sou l . He deplored the lack of capital remai~ing in taxpayer · hands after taxe have taken their cut and the increasing control that legislature bodies have over our actions with licencing. etc. The an wer is not to oak the rich -they just don't make up a large enough proportion of our economy to be able to put in the needed funds. We in the middle will keep getting cut deeper and deeper a we move~ toward a welfare state, imply because the middle income group control the great­est amount of incomes that are taxable. That's worth thinking about.

This is the la t tax column for this year. Remem­ber to file your return by April 30th after checking and double ·checking it. lf that Quebec Hospital ec­tion gives you a rough time just read it over a couple of times and it will come clear to you.

Todav we take a look at Registered Retirement avings Plans and the Dividend Tax Credit. You havP

just missed the deadline (Feb. 28~) for_ contribut­ing to an RRSP for tax purpo es for this year but you can keep it in mind for 1971.

'REGISTERED RETIREMENT SA VIN GS PLAN : 1. What are registered retirement saving plans? These are one-man pen ion plan made available

Co-op to buy used hooks It would seem t hat t he days

are almost over when students at Sir George are taking a ha­bitual beating on the ale of used books. The mark-up in the past on second hand books has bor­dered on the phenomenal as stu­dents have been forced to pay as much as 80< , for a second hand ,book old for so<, to t he book store .

A group calling themselves the Co-op Club is arranging to buy used books from tudents at fifty percent value and to resel them for a maximum 5' r handling charge tacked on to the original price.

Room H-603, E.S.A. Anyone who is interested in selling sold books should take them to the third floor.

Letters I agree that a handshake af­

ter a tough, hardh itting, CLEA hockey game is definitely OT hypocritical. But one after a tough, hardhitting, DIRTY one? What word can I use except to say that it is hypocritical?

I wonder if the writer of that editorial, if he plays hockey, will shake hands with hi op­ponents after a game who, for the past 60 minutes, has been trying- to elbow him, high-stick him, cross-check him . I doubt even Jean Beliveau will shake such opponents' hands.

The lat.e Vincent Lombardi, greate t of all football coaches, hates to lose. He always stre -ed on winning, but he al o stres­

sed on tough, hard, CLEA , games.

If the college hockey coaches can teach their players to play clean games, I think the player will always fee l, no matter who their opponents are, who won t he game, by what margin , to shake t heir gpponents hands. The other team had won their respect to be educated gentle-men.

cont .. tunity to com mend those who a­re s~fficiently un elfish, in te­rested and social-con cious to express well founded criticism. I would hasten to add however, t hat some additional effort - not neces arjly on the part of our critics, but more importantly by each student _(night and day) enrolled in t his university, and by that hitheto disinterested eg­ment of our alumni - would con­tribute vastly towards the de­

. partmen t's potential. This effort could take t he simple form of participation at athlet ic events 'and an occasional cry of " Yay Sir George". For t hose somw­uit more venturesome indivi­duals, ideas for, or assistance in promotional, spirit-bui lding or fund rais ing programs are other possibilities. Doug Insleay our athletic director is the man to see.

The department's latest disap­pointment came with the know­ledge that McGill 's athletic fa­cilities cannot be made availa­ble for our use in the coming year , though Mr. Insleay cen­tainly made every conceivab le effort to acquire them. It is my idea that with an improv­ed Quebec economy and just " a little help from our friends" the next five years could provi­de us with our own athletic com­plex. I might add here for tho-e whom it may concern, that it

is m.v opinion that considering our very limited budget, we ha­ve as excellent and diversified a program of athletics as can be expected. And if you think thi yea r's version of the Geor­gian Football Team was impor­ved, just wait till you get a look at next year' ro ter! ! ! !

Waiting for

Oscar I

Oscar time drawing ever so near (whatever little you may think of the perfunctory habit of giving out such awards) it would be wise to have a close look at two of the movies playing in this town today, and in par­ticular, the ones that have been "nominated" for a­wards in a specific category.

Five Easy Pieces

In the new American film, the homeless hero takes a very major role. He travels the land in search for a life style, a place of innovent pleasures and a place in which to "do one's thing". In Easy Rider, Peter Fonda summarizes the situa­tion by saying " We blew it". Meani~ what? That they never found it? That is wasn 't there to be found?

There is a prickly sense of unease in certam of these films.

In Five Ea y Pieces. the hero is once more on the move. Ma­de by members of the same group that backed Easy Rider. thi~ is a more probing film, taying real while making dis-

variably colors the substance of the new cinema. What better way to open up the film than t" make

its protagonist homeless? In 'Downhill Racer', the hero paid a visit to his home town, failed to communicate, and headed for the high cold places again . In Five Easy Pieces, he also goes home, though not for long. find out about him gives the film its unusual strength and bite. For Robert Dupea, as played with astonishing naturalness by Jack

icholson, does indeed have a background and once had a home and the reason for his leaving it that gives him his intiguing quality.

Unfortunately, the main law in the movie, and the one which may eliminate icholson from grabbing up an Oscar (which he probably doesn't hunger for any­way) is the lack of definition to Dupea's character. He is near­ly a tragic figure , but not qui­te, because we're not sure what he represents that was wa ted.

Five Easy Pieces, however, has its flaws; one or two inci­dents are "telegraphed" a lit­tle ahead of time with the les­sening effect that inevitability gives to drama; and in the re-cording studio cene, the tech­nician seem much too oblivious to, and even alienated from. the talent of the artist.

ther may set no milestones in cinema. But it has truth, heart and a sensitivity to human rela­tionships that lifts it far beyond the more agressive movie of­fering this season .

The theme is so pertinent and the performances so very affec­ting, that one is more than wil­ling to settle for any amount of agressiveness that is tossed o­ne's way. At - the film's center is the pill-produced world of the aged, an octogenarian who can still function as despot over his fully grown children. Tom Garrison (Melvyn Douglas) has long since retired from both business and the world of po­litics; in fact, his mind tends to wander just a bit.

However, he is still a formi­dable character .to his son (Ge­ne Hackman) a writer and tea­cher; somewhat less to his daughter (Estelle Parsons) whom he banished from the house for marrying a Jew. The death of

tinction between kinds of rea­lity. It is very possible that the new generation of film ma­kers have wearied of the studio and what they find 'outside' in-

What he finds there. what we too striking symbol is that of Dupea playing a piano on a truck bogged down in a freeway jam­up. The keys are out of tune: there is more discord from the irrate horn blowers behind him.

the children 's mother (Dorothy Stickney) precipitates the deci­sions from which the drama derives.

Admittedly, the theatre is bet­ter for this sort of thing. It thrives upon the self revelatory dialogues, the verbal flashbacks that bring each of the charac­ters into focus . Indeed, it used to be fashionable to label adap­tations such as "I ever Sang for My Father" as "uncinema­tic --- as if the lack of tricky camera work and snappy editing were enough to put seriously, intelleigently conceived material beyond the play.

In watching this film, one can still regret, to a certain degree, that it was not just a bit .more " cinematezed". But the fact is that unless it had first been conceived for the stage (which it certainly was, by Robert An­derson) it would probably have never made it as a movie script at all. The reason for this is, that in this movie one finds the characterization that keeps one going, hopefully, to the le­gitimate theatre. It seems only that such characterization occurs in films that have been adapted from a stage play (witness Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, The Boys in The Band.)

But even in this instance, things are done on the screen that the theatre could never ac­comodate. There is a beautiful sequence during which the bro­ther and sister reach some form of understanding. The maturity of the trees and the manicured lawns bespeak the whole life of the departed mother, and throw into effective but unspoken con-

. trast the life of the arrogant, unfeeling, old man in the hou­se beyond.

A documentary like sequence -- again impossible on stage reveals the old-age homes for what they really are; places for dying. The son, understandibly, is not able to consign his fa­ther to such a dismal, future­less future . But when he sug­ge:ts to his father that he co­me to live with him in Califor­nia, the father, no less under­standibly, is not willing nor a­ble to abandon all the things that have given meaning to his life .

I Never Sang for My ·Father outdoes most movies in potent, powerful characterization , and if predictions could be made and the awards were given justly, Melvyn Douglas must pick one up for his role as Tom Garri­son (_the old ,man) . ,

"Thl:! Fantasticks", "Trojan Women" and now - "Stairca­se" . An extremely varied pro­gram and strangely eriough, just as successful.

On Thursday night I caught a glimpse of what this recently formed society was producing. And this new production is mo­re sophisticated than any of their previous ones.

"Staircase" is a difficult play. It is centred round two barbers who love each other, who hate, comfort and maul each other. In an unobtrusive way, it comments wryly on the impossible nature of communi­cation. Charles Dyer, . the au­thor, has in two acts managed 'to describe two lives in an in­timate manner that is charac-terictic of a superior play-wright. His dialogue runs, dashes, he itates - his thoughts swing from as ociation to as-ociation and we in the audien­

ce, are carried along with him .

An ex-actor, Charlie Dyer, (yes, the play is autobiographi­cal) and hi motherly hairdres­sing companion Harry, have been living together for some

twenty years. The prime issue that the play revolves on is the court summons that Charlie has received for parading in female attire at a local gay bar. To make matters worse his daugh­ter whom he hasn't seen in twenty years is to arrive the next day. From here on the play twists around and provides shock after shock. To descri­be it further would ruin your pleasure. Let me say that it is all hilarious and the sadness underneath the play never es­capes for oversone sentiment.

I have never seen David Featherstonhaugh direct a play at Loyola and I must congra­tulate this effort. "Staircase" is a death trap for most direc­tors - Mr. Featherstonhaugh has captured a frail essence that is most appropriate to the

play and he has conjured up two gem-like performances. The movement of the dialogue is ex­cellent and the pace of the di­rection is never tedious.

The triumph of "Staircase" is however, Maxim Mazumdar. "Staircase" is a two-character play but it seems to me, that it can rise or fall with the ex­cellence of Charlie's portrayal. And Mr. Maxumdar never dis­appoints us. He i alternat ively vulnerable, brutal and cloyingly sincere. He splutter and flut­ter with the aura of a faded actor who refu e to believe he i a hack. It is a splendorous performance, quite the be t that I have seen this year in Mont­real theatre , and with it "Stair­case" is superb.

Mr. Mark Bassel 's Harry, i an excellent performance as well. Never spineless. And it is certainly to his credit that he holds his own when playing with the show-stopping Mr. Ma­zumdar.

Both actors work well toge­ther ; although I was a little un-

ea y at fir t with the actors ' different speech patterns; Mr. Mazumdar's clipped British and Mr. Bassel ' Canadian accen t. This difference wears off and the ear does adapt to it quick­ly .

·Gail Renard's

Odd (Couple) What television how features

two men haring a New York flat , and living and enjoying life together? Clear your filthy minds pervert . I'm speaking about the erie , "The Odd Couple" .

"The Odd Couple", by Neil Simon , started as a hit Broad­way play ; was rewritten into a highly successful movie; and then changed into a winning televi ­sion erie . ext it will proba­bly become a cartoon how, a comic strip , and a breakfast ce­real.

When I first heard of the e­ries, "The Odd Couple" , I thought it wa a show about Pierre Elliot Trudeau and Anne Murray. Ho­wever, I was delighted to find that it was the story of two di­vorces, living together, and try­ing to readjust to being ingle.

Lately, the series has start­ed each week with 1i film clip explaining that the two are divor­ced, and only sharing the flat until they remarry. This was obviously added for the benefit of the same perverts that I had to explain my opening sentence to.

But the main merit and hu­mour comes in the show itself, and its two main character Oscar Madison, and Felix Un­gar. The e fictional men are getting o well known that I think that they will become classical figures , like Scrooge, Little Or­phan Annie. Scarlett O'Hara, and John Diefenbacker.

Oscar is a slob, but not just an ordinary one. If all the slobs in the world got together, Os­car would tand out in the lob­mob. His room is decorated in Lo Angeles earth-quake 1971 ; and he dre se in Early Ame­rican li t ter. But he i lovable .

Felix i twen tv maiden aunt­ies rolled up into one . He's o clean that " Hou e Beautiful " ha a ub cript ion to him . Felix is also blessed wi th a million al­lergies . He is Hi Royal i­nus of the Dristan set , and , ma­ke one heck of a ,room-mate. But he i lovable.

The both of them living toge­ther make the odde t couple that you ever aw -- with the odde t problems . Take the dead parrot . That wa the problem -­who's go ing to take Felix' dead parrot? A funeral wa finally arranged, and I don 't remember laughing o hard since I fir t found out that I got accepted into Sir George. But the math­students would have loved that programme, becau e it featured a real polly-gone. (Sorry, I could not re ist ). That show was only one of 26 equally funn y epi o­des.

Loyola on Thursday evening bu t it was Loyola Warrior Time in the third period as the Number One O.S.L. team cored for un­answered goals to win 8-4. The 40 minute competition was against University of Sherbrooke . The 20 minute confrontation was with Sherbrooke goaltender, J.P. Desaulniers who stopped 20 shots in the first two periods and was magic in the third but couldn 't keep out John Hutton, Bill Mar­kell, Jack Surbey. and Bill Doyle.

Many people took their turns at being honored in the game be­ginning with presentations given and telegrams read to the sta l­wart Loyola coach whose 100 victory _plateau was being re­cognized .

One of those also honored was Jim Sunstrum-with a penalty shot. Referee Bill Bowman awarded it to any Loyola player at the time (6:16 of the second) when Father Vachon of herbroo­ke do ed his hands on the loose puck in the crea e. The score was knotted 2-2 at the time. on exchanged pairs in the first pe­riod, bu t unstrum failed in his bid to put the Warrior ahead. Sunstrum picked the puck up at center and we~ved in, teasing fakes with his body before being forced to hoot by Desau lniers who stood hi ground. Out wen t the ti ck, deflect ing the high hot into the·corner .

The rest of the second period wyn t much the ame way, wit h the U of goalie being put on the spot and herbrooke being held to only 6 shots, succeeding on two of them; with a lapshot from the point after a ra h of penalties left two men in t he box for Loyola and one for her­brooke: and with Father Vachon poking the puck home after it parked itself beside the po ton a play on which Rocky Martin was not an All- tar.

De pite these two herbrooke marker the Warriors kept even, coring first in t he period to

make it 3-2 and preceding Va­chon' goal by 1 1! minu tes to make it 4-3.

McCool had scored the fir t one when he beat the herbrooke

goalie to the puck after mo­mentary indecision by the latter, pulling it aside and backhanding it in . This goal followed a Sher­brooke power-play where the Green and Yellow had controlled the play but had mustered only one or two shots on net, which Rocky Martii;i stopped in good form . The fourth Loyola goal was Ron Riley's, when he changed the direct ion of a Bill Doyle shot.

So the score stood at 4-4 The Warriors showed true

championship form in "Their Twenty Minutes" and scored one of the prettiest goals of the season at 11 :56, the one that made it 7-4. Bill Doyle was left to lift it over the helpless U of S goalie after Chr is Hayes had tossed it out in front to team­mate Jim Sunstrum, who was skating even with t he Sherbrooke goal, taking the defenceman with him . Instead of taking a 'shot, which seemed inevitable, Jim Sunstrum cleverly back passed it to a hustling Doyle and the work was done.

A fair-sized skirmish erupted in the final 30 seconds but cool headed players outnumbered the fired up ones and no real animo­sity was exchanged .

Dave Draper deserved his Day. And the Warrior deserved

Loyola Warriors ended their regular season play on a vic­torious note last Saturday after­noon at the Athletic Complex as they walked over the larger Bi­shops University Gaiters 7-3 in what may be a preview to the OSLAA championship game. T he playoffs are scheduled for next weekend at the Pointe Claire Arena with Loyola, Bishops, Trois Rivieres and Sherbrooke slated to compete. The final standings are not yet set, as Sherbrooke and T rois Rivieres have to play on Monday evening to make up a game that was postponed during one of the re­cent snowstorms. There will be two games on Friday night and

· the winners of these semi-final matches will then meet on Satur­day night for the OSL crown .

Saturday afternoon 's contest was one of the hardest-hitting of the season as the Bishops side, averaging 190 pounds a man , attempted to run the Warriors out of their own rink. Scraps would have broken out on nume­rous occasions had suspensions for the first play-off games not threatened potential fighters as

The Georgians defeated Mac­donald in a rather chippy and dull affair at the Pointe Claire Arena Sunday. It wa expected that the Georgian would be the victor and they backed up this progno -t ication by coring ju t 17 se­conds after the drop of the puck. Mike Bonkoff was the markman on relays from Cullen and Be­dard . Mac then went into its pat­tern of clutch and grab to try &nd stop the Georgian . ir Geor­ge upped the coun t at the fo ur minute mark when Joel London took pa ses fro m Cullen an d Bonkoff to put ir George ahead 2-0. T he Georgian drove into Mac's end , looking fo r more chances to add to their lead . Chance they had ; success, though, was minimal. Goal tender Blair was extremely lucky on a few shots that hit the goal post. Any time Mac was fortun ate e­nough to begin a rush they were often stopped by some good solid body checks from Bedard and Mc amara. Steve Rach scored late in the period for ir George who peppered Blair from all an­gles. Blair was so busy and har­rassed that he almo t scored on himself near the end of the pe­riod . In attempting to clear the puck from five feet in front of

tempers ran high from beginning to end. Bishops jumped into the lead early in the first period when Rod McLernon deflected Chris Barton 's slapshot from the point past a screened Rocky Martin while Chris Hayes was serv ing a minor penalty. T he Warriors evened the count less

pot. T he Georgian seemed content

to play the second period at Mac­donald' pace and consequently ended up without a goal. The boy from te. Anne's actually had their chance with T aylor hitting the post on one occasion and being robbed by Bernie Wolfe on another. Sir George' line of London, Bonkoff and Cullen was a threat every time that it was on the ice and Mac's alternate goalie, Hebert, who replaced Blair , had to be extra harp . In the third frame the parse crowd wa given a preliminary look at next week' t itle bout when Joel London and M ichael Lemire dropped their glove and let fists fly. The decision, based on the score card of two writer and one injured hockey player, went to London . Both combatents were excused for the rest of the game. Mike Bonkoff added ano­ther goa l for ir George at 5:48 on assist from Cullen and Cro sley.

_f!ockn-'1.0om c:::!Vann:J For the past four months about a hundred guys have participat­

ed in intermural hockey games from 4:30 - 8:30 p.m. Saturdays at the McGill arena. .

The eight teams - Appollos, Blades, Komets, Maroons, Rein­deer, Seals, Voyageurs, and Vets - have p layed 14 league games resulting in the Reindeer as League Champions. The Playoffs are to take place March 6 and 13th when the Championship will be decided. The Championship will include three playoff games among the winners (4 top teams) and three playoff games among the losers.

Tom Dyce has been in charge or Intermural Hockey and has done a fine job in organizing the games and playoffs.

The style of hockey played in intermurals is rough yet the guys come out with the idea to play good hockey. They are not as

go:>d as the J .V. 's because they are not as well organized. Howe­ver, the quality of intermural players has been shown since three of them were recrui ted to play in the last three J .V. games, when J .V. s were short because ome of their players tepped up to fill in for injured Varsity Georgians.

The Boy have managed to beg, borrow or steal the necessary equipment and have proven to be enthusiastic in turn outs since none of the teams have defau lted in the plagueing snowstorms when the rest of the city came to a standstill.

The Georgians extended their winless streak to ten games as t hey played the perfect hosts by not giving much competition for the visiting Patriotes de Trois Rivieres . The attitude of late came under attack by a couple of the players after this game, though to no prevail. The main complaint was that of the horse play that has been going on be­fore and after the game. ·

The orators can't be blamed for sounding off, for on this night like on others, there lack­ed any degree of heads-up hoc­key at the crucial times. Like the time when Sir George was trailing only two to one and they had a golden opportunitie to tie the game up as they held a two man advantage. But it was the Three Rivers team who scored. Then also in the dying seconds of the first period everyone just stood around waiting for the clock to run out and Three Ri­vers took advantage of it by scoring the go-ahead goal. But then again this season has been one of great frustration because of all the injuries and now the players are out to enjoy them-

selves a bit since the pressure to make the playoffs is off. The freak injuries that accurred had to build up a certain amount of frustration in the other players as they stood by so helplessly, watching their team dwindle a­way.

Sir George continued their style of late by using their bo­dies. London and· MacNamara were the leaders as each deli­vered more than their share of body checks. On a few occasions a little extra was put into their checks and thus they spent con­siderable time in the "sin bin". Luckily both Cullen and Hale ca­me to their rescue, by doing a masterful job of killing the pe­nalties. The one powerplay goal that Three Rivers got was sco­red from behind the net. So they couldn 't be put at fault. Barry Cullen and Steve Rach got the two Georgian goals. Cullen's came on a beautiful solo effort, as he put his pattented shift on the defenceman before getting home free in on the goaler. Rach's goal came after MacNa­mara eluded two forecheckers, swept around the defencemen and fed Rach a pass.

Bernie Wolfe was once again bombarded by barrage of show. This time 48 were directed his way. Though Wolfe was at fault for a couple of goals, he more than made up for them as his porous defence left him alone on many occasions. The final ga­mes of the season are proving interesting as a few of the J. V .'s are trying to prove to Coach Arseault that they are good en6ugh to stay up next years .

the lighter Warriors was par­tially effective in the first period but completely unproductive in the next two. After the first twen­ty minutes the Gaiters forgot a­bout playing hockey and expe­rienced difficulty clearing the puck out oL their own end. At the end of two periods the score was 5-3; Nick Haramis, .John Hutton and Jack Surbey scoring for the Warriors while Donnie Campbell replied for the Gaiters. Jim Sunstrum and Chris Hayes rounded out the scoring in the third frame on solid individual efforts while Larry. Carriere missed on a penalty shot after being hauled down on a break­away by Chris Barton. Final score, Loyola 7 - Bishops 3.

The chances of the Gaiters defeating the Warriors in the play-offs is virtually non-exis-. tent unless they abandon their football-like hitting style and stick to hockey. Also, the Gaiters will have to receive superb goal­tending from Loyola high school product Alain Hebert, who on Saturday was brilliant in kicking out 42 of 49 shots directed at him. Hebert will receive a lot of votes for the first OSL All-Star team and should be considered a pro prospect. His play must have impressed the six or seven pro scouts who were in atten­dance.

Saturday's home game was the last for veterans Mike Thomas­sin , John Hutton, Bill Doyle and captain Chris Hayes. All have made great contributions to the Loyola efforts of the last three years and will be extremely hard to replace. Nothing would make these four veterans happier than a national championship which

Off to Natio~als Loyola Wins .Third Straight B'Ball Crown

by Dennis Forristal

To 'the surprise of no one, the basketball Warriors walked off with their third consecutive Ot­tawa-St. Lawrence title this past week-end. It is hard to tell which of the three was the . ea­siest to capture.

Wins of 93-55 and 95-57, o­ver Royal Military College and Macdonald respectively, were only a small hurdle toward the task that lies ahead for Loyola this week in Wolfeville, Nova Scotia, site of the National Championships.

The victory margin of 38 points for both games pretty

. much tells the story of Loyola in the league playoffs .

Friday night; ,.Loyola forced RMC into as many mistakes, mishaps and mismatchups as Bill Mann's wardrobe, with their press from the opening tip-off. Playing a basic man-to-man, the bustling quintet allowed a· mere 6 Cadet points in the opening quarter. Meanwhile at the other end of the court, the Warriors were setting up their plays, running them well, and hitting the open man, enabling them to take a comfortable 43-18 lead into the locker room at the half.

The econd half was no more exciting, as both teams played a they did in the first half. As

has been the case for the past four years when playing a lea­gue member, the Warriors fail ­ed to concentrate at times and looked very clumsy at certain intervals remaining to be satis­fied with tum-overs that have plauged them all year long. Nine­teen in one game isn't well re­ceived.

Much of RMC's shooting ca­me from the foul 1ine, courtesy of the Warrior's stupid fouls. The Cadets trailed by 28 at the end of the thi:rd quarter, main­ly due to the Warrior's defense that did not allow them to. get a good shot off. There is not much one can say about a defense so inferior and an offense that has some talent but could never get untracked.

The final read 93-55 with Warrior guard Tom Profenno leading all point-getters with 19, followed by teamate John McAu­liffe with 17. Dave Heath was tops for the Cadets, putting in 14.

The second game of the twin­bill saw Macdonald being handed a 77-70 win, thanks to Bishops . The see-saw battle finally open­ed up late in the third quarter when Bishop ·, because of ~oul trouble, remained in a zone de­fense, and where there is the slightest opening, Clansman Jim Guild is usually good for two. Such was the case with the zone, and Guild took full advantage to

pop in 23 in the second half alone . Down by four at the half, the Gaitors failed to hit when they needed it most. The third quarter saw Macdonald open up a thirteen point lead on the count, with consistant outside shooting by Guild and Ken Smy­the .

The Gaitors, however, came back in the final frame with Pe­ter Munzar hitting thrice in the early . going, but the big fore­ward can 't do everything for them, though he gav~ it a good try. If defeat wasn't enough, Munzar failed in his bid for a 2500 point college career all of which made Norm Silver's Mus­tache taste even sweeter. Twen­ty for the night ended his five year stint with 2496, by far the most ever by any Canadian col.­lege player. Jim Guild had 37 with fellow guard Ken Smythe good for thirteen.

The finale Saturday was play­ed as expected. It was reported, however, that a small dosage of

itol was in demand by a few who failed to be put to sleep by the pace of the game. Macdonald took an early lead, in fact, 2-0, before the game even began . Clansman coach, Pat Baker, who's beginning to realize hi team's chances of winning, needs every ooint, so he was

real exciting dog-fight for the right to represent the O L in the ational Collegiate Hockey Championships --- won't shape up as a real exciting dog-fi~ht. The main reason for this is the Loyola Warrior team which should experience little real op­position in the OSL Playoffs this w~kend, at Pointe Claire Are­na.

The three other teams that will vie for the honours are Sherbrooke, Three Rivers, and Bishops University. The final playoff seed is not as yet deter­mined because of a postponed Sherbrooke - T hree Rivers match to be played tonight.

In the eries itself, the first place team, Loyola, will face the fourth place team, followed by the match between

awarded 2 points on account of a dunking violation on the War­riors in the pre-game warmup, but once started, Baker couldn't wait for the humiliation to end. Loyola jumped out to a 23-7 lead at the end of the stanza, meaning the defense held for 5 points. Their consistant outside shooting, a fired up defense, disallowing the press, upped the count to 44-22 at the half. · It was highlighted by ·the fine de­fensive work of Tom Profenno, who stole the ball twice at half­court to. go in all alone for the basket.

The second half only lenghtend the Warrior's lead . The defense

· again held the Clansmen to a mere 9 points on seven shot&. from the floor. Offensively Loy­ola potted 35 points with All­Star John McAuliffe finding the range with his fine corner jump shots .

Substituting freely throughout the game, there were five War­riors into double figures. McAu­liffe ended the night with 29, Dave Burke being · good for 16. Profenno, Jack Contos and Greg Gill each had 10. Again it was Jim Guild leading the Macdonald attack with 23, followed by Ken Smythe with 18. The course of the two Warriors contests was as expected; overpowering their opponents in every facet of the game except time-outs. . This week's journey to the -

ationals is a whole new ball­game and a whole new approach when they put their reputation on the line once again.

This past year for the War­riors has been one of ups and downs. ince Christma they

have boasted a 13 and 1 record, the loss coming to Platsbrug by 2.

They have learned to play as a team, probably the basis for many claiming this year the best for Loyola. The starting fi­ve now complement eachother beautifully.

Jack Contos has had the best year in a brown and white uni­form, finally disregarding the knee which has hampered him for the previous two years. The guards which up until January were the weak part of the War­riors game have settled down into two good play-makers. Da­ve Burke has never looked bet­ter with his outside shoot ing being a big asset. Tom Profen­no has now found the scoring touch that he had one year ago .

John McAuliffe has come back this year to play with no inter­uptions and is an All-Canadian candidate . Gene Lawrence, the most consistant over the four years, has remained the top shooter on the club. These two and Contos continue to play well both offensively and defensively, with the improving play of the bench, all have contributed to make this year very rewarding. But it is a whole. new season this week in the ational when they take on Acadia University, tops in the country, at .Acadia, in front of 4000 partisan fan no less. They have been content to settle for far less the part two years. It's up to them what thi year. For Loyola the tools and inspiration are there, all that is required now is for their confidence and potential to be fully realized.

You again!!! Out ... Get off of the ice NOW!!!!
