evidence and the finishing touch was added by an en thus las brass band A Georgetown rerun of Gone With The Wind Not likely but definitely on event of almost equal proportion The GDHS Senior Rebels faced elimination last Tuesday in a sudden death semi final contest against the M M Robinson Rams of Burlington Even hough the Rebs had defeated the Rams earlier in the year Coach Jim was not taking this contest lightly The earlier encounter had been won by the Rebels by one small point and the Rams top player Gord Mc Niece had not played The Rams brought along approximately 100 supporters however the students picked up the challenge and packed the gym to lend vocal support to their favorites As one teacher commented This is the most support we ve had and the most spirit that has been shown in three years The Rebels rose to the oc cas ion and put down the bat tling Rams 63 It was a close game throughout and the Rebels almost blew It in the opening quarter by playing A timid Ineffective ball the Rams had a comfortable 168 lead and clearly dominated Clay Then as so often happens i sports the Rebels made a complete about face and look control of the game With to go in the hall the Rebs hit high gear Both teams were playing tight defence but the Rebels shooting and rebounding were clearly superior in thai three- minute span Georgetown held Coach Costlgan called a the Rams to one point while timeout to calm his players down and the talk must have tied at the half The had a soothing effect as the question on everyones mind Rebels returned to the floor was whether the Rebels could more confidence and continue their pace in the controlled play until the final second half or would they sounded The Rama revert to their early first and especially McNiece quarter To the be full marks for relief of the Georgetown sup- their effort Although they porters the Rebs came out outplayed for three gunning and continued with quarters there was never any strong defensive play The thought any time of letting fourth quarter opened with the They are a credit to their Rebels sporting a lead school and to their coach and Realising that elimination will no doubt be a power In was at stake the Rams surged to come back In the early part of the Coach Costlgan described the fourth period With six minutes win as good overall team remaining the Rebels held a effort Paul had an slim threepoint lead Then outstanding game He was with their supporters urging floor leader and key point them on the found their Better when the need arose shooting eye and with remaining pulled In front and If he could to control This should have affected his temper better could turn the Rams play but Gord l qui fl basketball player easily the best player Rick Gourlie hit for some key on the

name of the game last Friday night at Nelson High School In Burlington and the Rebels lost both the psychological war and he on court battle rather badly There was no question that the Rebels were cast as the underdogs However Just recently when these same two teams met In the regular season the Rebels kept pace with the Lords for all out the final three minutes of that gamcbeforebowlngout performance in that contest coupled with the teams ex cells semi final win over M M Robinson was expected to Hive the Rebels the added lift they would need to seriously threaten Lord Nelson But nothing of this sort materialized and the Rebels were literally blown off the court From the opening whistle the Lords took command of the game and the best that can be said for the Rebels Is that they were in contention for possibly two minutes Their rebounding was virtually nonexistent and the press defense that Nelson employed throughly checked any thought of a patterned Rebel offence For the better part of the game It was every Rebel for himself and the resultant erratic ball handling and shooting coupled with poor passes only served to add to the Re lea considerable misery The rabid Nelson fans who packed the gym enjoyed every minute of the humiliation and continually drowned out the Infrequent cheers from the Georgetown crowd who had fallowed their hopefuls to Burlington Rick Mike Doug Lamb and Paul Michael each had six for the Rebels Mark played well below bis capabilities scoring one point and showed aggressiveness on the boards He did little to help his team a cause
