The impending competition has raised

from the dozens of entries in the "Name

The Bed News, Beavers, we called on
reporter *Jim Heer to produce a charicature
of die team symbol, The Beaver.

With all the attention the game is

can say is "You had better win", in a

But we're not afraid. We have Super
Beaver to protect us; and uphold justice in
the world (sounds good, doesn't it?) And
besides, we've managed to hold two
whole practices, and might even squeeze
one in tonight. Blue Jays, watch out, here
we come.
Sunday's game is just for fun and
perhaps to raise a bit of money for the
hospital. It should prove to be an enjoyable
afternoon for "players" and fans alike.
After all, how many softball teams Can
boast having a Beaver as toach and a dog
named Tuktoyaktuk as catcher?
