round Ontario Federation of Schools Athletic Association OFSAA A basketball tournament game played here over the weekend an inability to handle 0 Gorman pressure defence- In the second half particularly in the third quarter spelled doom for Acton as Gorman won the game 3930 The loss eliminated Acton from the tournament after wins over Arthur and Cartwrlght High Schools pressure tactics of the team surprised Acton coach McLaren It did fool me because they had no bench he said Even though we had practised how to get away from that sort of pressure we just couldn t handle it By virtue of their pressure success Gorman took the lead in the game tut could not open it up However in the final quarter some thing happened that hurt Actons chances of winning the game Forward Theresa separated her shoulder and had to leave the game With the score 2926 for 0 man at that point McLaren knew his team chances had dwindled some what with the loss Playing senior ball different for junior To me that was the touma meat championship game McLar en said It the loss was disappoint but It was a great year But game statistics point to the third quarter as the telling feature of the game In that Quarter Gorman Acton 2 The third quarter was the turning point cocoach Anne Andrews said In the last quarter they scored 10 points and we so it was pretty We t putting the ball up enough she said Both coaches said they were happy with the season but said they could be losing up to 10 players from the team for next season t ask for anything more from the girls McLaren said They gave me everything they could I felt we had one of our strongest teams this year Andrews said We knew we had to play a good game to win and the girls gave it their best Judy Thomson had nine points to lead

Athletic Herald photo by Dan Ralph Association OFSAA senior girls cham Cross country skiing Lawrence nets four in win Arm swing will help ones pace Striding If you have been active for a number of years I think It wise to start out by Striding Striding Is basically the same exercise as walking with longer than normal steps Striding is achieved by placing greater emphasis on the push off foot to lengthen the norma stride Striding can be maintained by accentuating the arm action Let both swing freely so that they are perpendicular to your body A good arm swing will automatically help propel the legs and will enable you to maintain a good brisk pace Measure off a course that la not too demanding and gradually Increase your daily mileage over a week period until you have worked up to a 3040 minute workout At the end of this time period you may want to start a running program Running Train Don t Strain Start out slowly on a measured course You may want to measure the distance around the block where you live If you are running outdoors After completing one or two laps you might want to call It a day Dont push yourself to the exhaustion point When you feel fatigue slow down and walk or jog slowly back to the starting point Cool down a day Set a realistic goal for yourself For example Ifyoubaverunahalfmllecoursefartwo weeks try to run a threequarter mile course for the next two weeks and so on Remember only you know your limitations and how you feel Don I Worry About Year Time Over the years I have seen too many people giveuponarunningprogram because they have become obsessed with the stop watch Remember you are running far fun for aerobic conditioning and for your own satisfaction During the first few months your goat should be to complete say a one or two or even a five mile run depending on your individual conditioning At a later date you might want to In order to find out your per mile pace Then you can set new goals as time passes The same principles apply a striding cycling or roller skiing Boiler You may wish to supplement the running program with roller training Some skiers alternate running and roller skiing you feel that running Is not for you then you may wish to concentrate on roller skiing for aerobic condltion- Equipment Roller skis are becoming more sophistical each year although the perfect roller ski baa yet to be Invented I would recommend the two wheel roller skis thai allow you to control your speed by Roller skiing comes closer to simulating real skiing than any other exercise The two wheel variety allows you practise the marathon skate as well as diagonal stride The gliding quality is also excellent and allows for a real honest double poling workout Poles For Roller SUiag The hoops Including the tips on- your regular poles should be removed and replaced for theSummerwithcarbldetipi The extra bard tips will be hotter able to penetrate the asphalt thereby preventing slippage The total cost for roller ski carbide tips and binding Is approxi The wheels ore usually good for approximately 1 kilometers and can be replaced The Roller Ski Workout Approximately cent of your normal workout consists of double poling IS per cent will beskatlngandlSpercentdlagonal striding These percentages can be altered If you wish to work on your weaknesses Diagonal striding can best be practised on gradual inclines Repetitions on the some hill do wonders for your stamina Be cautioned however on skiing down steep bills as stopping Is extremely difficult at medium to fast Four goals by Dave Lawrence paced George

under- i Sue did not let herself go McLaren said We talked to her about that and her problem was hesitation but she fit right In Craig saw action In all three games Acton won their first two games against Arthur and against Cart and said she was happy with her play in those games But in Actons loss to man she was not pleased with herself at all des pite getting seven rebounds Craig will still be ell to play junior next year but could go up to the senior ranks if she so chooses Up to 10 players could be leaving the team next year due to graduation I not sure If 1 play senior next year or
