Page II THE November IBT6 Team completes very satisfying season Sports For Cord and McCal of Georgetown their eighth plate finish in his Weekends International Tall Fines ally staged in what truly tould lw Sports Comment A certain view I on our sports Herald The brickbats have been laid aside temporarily and this weeks sports sojourn will travel the reminiscent route In glancing at the calendar last week I that the glutton of time had felt it to remind me of a milestone Perhaps millstone might be a better term in some of my readers opinions but it struck me that I had juil passed two years as the Sport Editor of The Herald Struck believe me is the right terminology because I happened to be standing under Caesars creation when it decided to fall I must admit in a sense I was shanghaied into the job as I was attending Sheridan College in at the time I was hired and had no presumptions about accepting a newhpaper capacity albeit Sports Editor or the now Hills Herald The opportunity arose I accepted and in all truthfulness I have never regretted my decision 1 have always been both a participant and I must admit an observer of athletic goingson and in Georgetown I found and am slill discovering a veritable goldmine of athletic achievements That I put the rap on a particular aspect of the Georgetown sporting spectrum from time to time should not be digested as a judgement on the feast as a V whole Rather it should be accepted as seltzer offered to allow the rest of the local sports banquet a more amenable time to filter through the voracious area athletic appetite I am at limes critical and I feel rightly became I am of the opinion that sports in Canada arc treated as the unwanted yet at times unavoidable burdensome child The only way to remedy this situation is to make people aware On the local level fitness sports achievements j and the lifelong increments that accumulate through being healthy allow one carry on an active life If in demanding this strata I am wrong then Caveat Emptor let the buyer beware because can assure you I will always be selling these wares In one sense I am against the ultraorganized aspect y of sport but then again one realizes that perhaps this is the only way that lines can be brought to masses The word masses will no doubt raise some hackles but before jumping to conclusions and concussions think for a bit Although I detest generalities I suppose I must now be considered an adult In public school truthfully in Northern Ontario our Physical Education classes con of in winter playing dodge ball in the school basement day and in summer perhaps getting out to play Admittedly it depended on the teacher and one female member of the staff used lo dread taking us out on the playground as she used to act as the umpire and to my recollection not one ball was swung at and the game if it could be called one was terminated lime and again because of a bloody nose Ihe teachers Thanks to my father through rather subtle and in fact now rather ingenious methods I feel 1 learned the value of sport Sport or a game in a specific instance should not be dwelt upon whether in victory or defeat Instead the moments should be savored and reminisced over not in bitterness or in arrogance but in the that one was a participant In sports as well as other walks of life including politics too many people are observers rather than participants and this I eel is at the crux of a plethora of Sports can be played rehashed debated criticized and lauded However Ihe final score regardless of the game must be accepted Perhaps the sports anion Its not If you win but how the game is played can and should run counter to the final result These thoughts that I have thrown out in some way hopefully explain my philosophy on sport I dont consider myself on expert at times I J consider it a privilege to report on sporting achievements However I try to maintain on unbiased perspective and in so doing leave myself open to the flings and which undoubtedly will me even more fuel for Sports Comment BITS of the GDHS Junior basketball team is having quite a year She had on 30 point game and last Monday scored points and
