"Machines with no heart"), like Aleksandr Yakushev and Valeriy Kharlamov. The Soviets soon got our respect, lickity-split, nonat- '�` low grudging.'$ y had heart, and earned a spot forever in ours. In retrospect, the only expert who was close to the mark before this great series began was the Sun 's sports editor George Gross. "Don't take the Soviet National Team lightly," he wrote. "They wouldn't have agreed to this series if they didn't think they had a fair chance of winning some of the games." How right he turned out to be. YOU CAN'T GO BACK Although the eighth and deciding game of the "Super Series" was as entertaining as the sport can be it was not, as new experts have deified it in the last couple of weeks, "The Greatest Hockey Game of All Time." That description covers a lot of territory but the game that would earn my nod for that particular label was also played in a September between Team Canada and the U.S.S.R., but only a decade ago - at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton. It was the second game of the Canada Cup final in 1987, which Team Canada won in double overtime on a goal by Mario "The Magnificent" Lemieux, assisted by Mr.Wayne Gretzky, "The Great".

I also scooped tickets to this past Sunday's Tem Canada 25th Anniversary Charity Game at Maple Leaf Gardens, featuring a goodly number of our aging heroes, including Henderson (now a "Born Again," but as far as I'm concerned he can be any- thing he wants to be, as I swore when he scored that big goal in September 1972 that I'd never say another bad thing aboyt him), from 25 ,yam ago. Sunday was sad. I guess you can never go back or • home again, as they say. The. ont i legend who didn't look old, grey and fat was Stan Mikita, who has aged well but looked kind of maturely wizened, even when he was in junior. Then again, 1 look kind of old, grey and fat these days too. What did I expect? Twenty-five years is a long time. THANKS TO 'EAGLE' Talk about the Rolling Tennis team takes conference title Seaforth District High School's tennis squad won the Huron -Perth team title a week ago Monday at Stratford. The conference tournament had been postponed the Friday before because of rain. Individually, Sean Ludwig and Carali McCall captured gold in mixed doubles and Cheryl Thompson and Starla Wick finished first in women's doubles The SDHS team was made up of 15 tennis players and racked up more points than all the others, for instance teams from Clinton, Stratford, Enter, Wingham, Listowel, Goderich, St. Marys and Mitchell. "We didn't get it without some luck and hard work," said coach John Ball. "It was quite a team effort." Volunteer Hank Binnendyk also helped coach the team. Water exercise a fountain of youth? Seaforth's Drusilla Leitch was one of the more than 85 aquatic fitness instructors from across Canada and the United States to attend a "state of the art" water train- ing program at West Vaughan Community Centre on Sept. 20 and 21. The "Golden Waves" func- tional fitness research pro- gram showed that seniors, aged 60 to 89 years, decreased their physiological or performance age," accord- ing to information provided by the program. "'They felt and acted as if they were 40 years old,' observed Mary Sanders, of the University of Nevada. "This was not a bad out- come for only three hours of water exercise per week for a four-month period." Leitch 'says the Golden' Waves program revealed that water training will improve upper body strength, func- tional range of motion, bal- ance and lower body strength. She was particularly impressed "that this program helped seniors improve their abdominal strength and pos- ture through stabilization exercises." Leitch teaches water fitness classes at the Vanastra Recreation Centre, and land- based classes for the Seaforth Recreation Department "where she utilizes 'function- al fitness' training on land in her fitness is fun programs.

Anyway again- back to the first Super Series, our best versus their best, it was all set up by a lawyer fellow called Alan Eagleson, who has since fallen into disrepute, and for good reason. But it was the wheeler-dealer, power -trip- ping "Eagle" more than any- body else who set this great matchup up, and for that he deserves the nation's eternal gratitude. He did more than talk and fought fire with fire, pulling it off, where others had tried and all failed. He helped give our game to the world. Sold it as the great spectacle it is. In retrospect a quarter-cen- tury later, Russian (and all of Europe's) hockey has become more like ours. And our hockey has become more like theirs. And the game is better for it, no matter what the experts say.
