It really didn't seem fair hav-
ing tb spend a sweltering sunny
afternoon watching hundreds of
pounds of male mince pulverize
one another.

contemporary gladiators do bat-
tle in sauna-tymsknslitions.
'"Oh to be a member of the
paparazzi, Rorne's starlet hunt-
ing photographers, zeroing in on
big -busted beauties clad in the
briefest bikinis,"
.The advent of hot weather
seems to bring with it certain
connotations as to what one
should be doing instead of the
job at hand.
But n9, here we were on the
football field watching a trio
of local maulers attempt to tear
each other apart.
Football is normally an ap-
pealing sport when one is clad
in topcoat and scarf shouting
Oeudo-obscenities across a frost-'
covered field. "

it lacked the atmosphere. It
-was a time to speculate that the
tough trio had rejected the ap-
parent summer call of the wild
for youth.
ToPrid Torsos
By all accounts they should
have been sticking surfboards
underneath hairy armpits and
rushing off to display torrid
torsos and continue. their educa-
tion on- some beach.
But by aparent choice they
had rejected the idea of lying
on Nfarm sands casually casting
empty beer cans into -the water
and reciting beat poetry tb ex-
plain their existence.
Lw.. these ggys. A series
of gleeful grunts at each bone -
jarring impact showed they
were the pseudo -masochists ot
which good football players are
made.
Coach Wayne Horner did not
help things. The cigar -smoking
GDCI instructor barked orders
at the big three—Brian Dowds,
John MacLean and Brian Fea-
gan, as though it was their pri-
vilege to ,be perspiring under
pounds of pads.
For he was putting thein
through their paces under the
expectation thatjt will take at
least one of them to the Ottawa
Rough Riders Camp later in the

So who want's to plaPt,foot-
ball at the end of June? Ap-
parently not just these three.

the country converge on train-
ing camps in an attempt to
snag the coveted prizes of the
football world.
Surfing Ball
The sun beat down even
stronger and brought visions of
film producers seizing on these
three energetic youths to pro-
vide a rkew theme for the seem-
ingly endless number of surf-
ing films.
Titles like "Cleats on a surf:
board" would replace "Beach
Party 'Lansjahm...woutthlie._ lines
of dialogue like: "They used to
kick sand in my face till I bor-
rowed Angelo Mosca's shoulder
pads." ..
All levity aside these three
young, athletes deserve full
credit for their efforts. It was
enough to make out -of -condi-
tion onlookers puke'to see them
tearing round the turf in, -the -
display of uninhibited enthus-
"It gets a little warm under
all these pads in this sort of
weather," said Brian Llowds.
"But it is an :excellent way of
getting into shape if you can
stand it." .
