Three or four seasons ago. the Bears were corn— prised of merely six to eight players. They will be led by the shooting and ball hand- ling abilities of Dennis Niel - Sportalk Pnui Erni • It's the band that 's important What doyou thnk of when you hear the word football? pc. you think of a rough game played on a large field in front of a great cheering cro:wd? Do you think of a bunch of grown men, protected by massive pads, hitting each other in pursuit of a small leather ball, which doesn't even have the decency to be round? No, if you are like most true football fans, you probably think of the most important aspeet of the game...the cheer- leaders. If you were to mention football around Seaforth District High School this week, the reply would would be the Grey Cup, scheduled for this Sunday in Toronto. And the reason that this Grey Cup stands out from preVidus ones is that the school's Girls Trumpet Band will be heading to the big city this weekend to take part in the nationally televised Grey Cup Pairade. Thitis just another prestigious feather in the cap of the popular band, which in the last year alone has marched in such events as the International Plowing Match, last Saturday's London Jaycee's Santa Claus Parade, and of course in the Edison Pageant of Light in Florida last February. But this time it will be different. The Gray Cup Parade will be seen by literally millions of people throughout Canada, rather than just a local audience. Makes you nervous, doesn'tit girls? It will be the Edmonton Eskimos and the Hamilton Tiger Cats on the. field Sunday. but we all know.that the S.D.H.S. girls will be the stars of the show in downtown Toronto Saturday. There's no doubt about that. By why talk about a band in a sports column? Simple. I've taken quite a bit of flack from band members because they haven't been receiving much publicity recently. When I tell them that a trumpet band has nothing to do with sports, I get such answers as "We're athletic. It's a lot of work marching. It's hard," or some- times "You try marching 41/2 miles in the cold when your hands and feet are frozen and your shoulder is aching." So I feel that it is only fair to pay tribute to those great athletes who compose the band. After all. while most sane people are at home watching the festivities on the idiot -box, in full living colour of course, these energetic girls will be unselfishly braving the elements --yes, even risking' getting a cold—so that the rest of us hedonists can be entertained. What dedi- cation! In all fairness, we must truly admire the band. It's quite an achievement to partici- pate in Canada's parade of parades. especially at this time of year when thd weather promises to be less than ideal. They really deserve our support. And don't wory. You can watch the girls In the parade. and still not miss even onc shot of the cheerleaders. Attendance is" sagging at hoe gal:11es,, as ' only 68 Pasens paid to see the.
