Great Golf!

Gert Van Niekerk has pulled another
winning golf team out of the woodwork
here at Douglas as they travelled to
Kamloops on Oct. 12 - 14 and brought
home silver place medals. The team
lost out to Malaspina by three
strokes over six rounds of golf.

Congratulations team!!

 

 

Soccer

The men's soccer team defeated
Trinity Western on Oct. 16 with a
4-2 score.

The team will take on a tough
Capilano team on Oct. 27 at 1300 hrs,
at Sapperton Park.

This is the last league game of the
season and the last chance to cheer
for this year's soccer team.

 

Benefit Hockey

Gordie Howe and Bobby Hull were big
hits as they visited our Campus
last Monday afternoon. Autograph
seekers vied with T.V. cameras

and sportSreporters for a chance to
meet and talk to these gentlemen
who some consider to be two of
North America's greatest hockey
players ever.

Both Bobby Hull and Gordie Howe
(who were described to me by one
woman on campus as middle-aged
perfect 10's) emphasized they were
"getting on in years" and probably
lacked staying power in comparison
with the 20 year olds, whom they
were about to join on the ice.
However, after watching the game,
we all realized that if this was the
case, it is amazing what these two
must have been capable of twenty
years ago.

Gordie Howe used his superior
skating ability and knowledge of the
game to literally skate circles
around our guys and the Vancouver
Canuck Oldtimers. He scored three
goals for our Royals and was chosen
lst star of the game.

Royals goalie, Jamie McCluskie,

told me after the game that their
wrist shots were as hard as any slap
shots he has stopped and that with
wrist shots, he never knew where
Bobby and Gordie would direct them.
Both Paul and Jamie were terrific

in goal, and "the great one", Gordie
Howe, had many compliments for
members of our team.

Added attractions of the evening
featured Gary Monahan,"the Voice

of the Canucks" and Paul Shmyr, who
joined Gordie and Bobby here at
Douglas for the Press Reception and
