played an upanddown end fast skating hardshooting contest against It was good wideopen hockey at its best Not only was there plenty of quality goals 16 in all to be exact but there was some decent and honest togoodncss and clean hard hits The penalty box stayed relative ly empty and the teams stuck to hockey So the fact remains There should be more people catching the act of these resurgent Raiders In their new bright red and black finery before they hit the playoffs Perhaps there still some Georgetown fans out there who are uninformed enough to believe the Raiders nee Gemini are still the sad sack lot they were last season Well nothing could be further from the truth Last years survivors are quick gelling with some impressive newcomers and lo and behold the Raiders are serious contenders

salt water and swimming not my best event to begin with confessed Edwards Nevertheless the Georgetown athlete performed well in the water and looked to make up ground along the km bike route It was a hard hilly course he said It tended to weed out the weak riders A iokm run primarily straight followed the cycle portion and conlli to progress At the finish line his official time was 1 with the winner clocking In at an unofficial I I was surprised at the high of athletes competing said Edwards As a gala banquet marked the con elusion of the 1988 Police Games Edwards and his father began the second leg of their journey a bicycle trip up the cast coast of Australia The Edwards first brush with a member of Australia unique wildlife family came as a surprise and left them feeling like they

caught me off guard Other highlights on the Australian road included several samplings of traditional Aussie pub lunches the Las Vegaslike clubs Retired Serviceman League rustic com moda in outback
