A' rein- :carnation a 11Th immortal Howie , Morena No way. Clark Kent on skates? Probably not. We'll leave thit one for the boys at AlE . C. In fact, that fellow with the blue shirt and strange green hockey tape wae non other than Mike • Marion of the . I.H.L. Blues. The-one they' call "Wee, tee" scored 'a goal last Sunday night during his clubs 7.3 loss to the Wings. What's so special about that von may ask? Well, it was his first goal of the season and his first score ever in I.H.L. competition, For a man who never played organized hockey. (not .to suggest the I.H. L, is or- g anized)and hasn't been on skates in years, it was a most ' satisfying gonl indeed. The ' diminutive forward will not threaten any of the leagues records this season hut with a couple of more years experience, who knows?? Jim Sills scored the other pair of Blues goals.. The -win by the red shirts allowed them to maintain their first ,place lead in the league standings. • Art Strong and Kevin Bennett paced the Winners by scoring two goals apiece. Single_markers went to Ted Montgomery, Casey Klaver and Lloyd Eisler. STARS 9 HAWKS 1 Nebuchadnezzar was, at one time, the king of Babylonia. Babylonia, you see, was the Las Vegas of the Toga set. The immoral goings on had the religious fraternity in a pickle and King Neb wasn't such a hot shot leader type. He had the presence of mind, however. to repent all his sins just before he died, After he , passed away, his,, son, Belshazlr took over the throne and the first thing the new King did was to throw a wild, party to celebrate his coronation. He commanded that his fathers vessels of gold and silver be brought, so that the wine could be drunk front them. Well, the people drank' the wine, got looped to the eyeballs and praised' the gods of gold and silver. And you gotta know that all this carrying on was making some very angry. Suddenly the feast was interrupted when a man's hand appeared mysteriously and`' began writing pn . the wall of the palace. All the party goers who saw the hand were quite frightened, to say the least. When the hand finally disappeared, the words, "Mene, mete, tekel, upharsin" were left on the wall. Belshazzar was in ,a panic and sent for his wise men whom he hoped would inter- pret the strangc.writing. He promised all kinds of goodies to the prophet who could tell him what the mysterious • words meant. His late father's wise man, who happened to be Daniel, was brought to the palace. Well. Daniel took one look at the 'ords on the wall and knew exactly what they meant. The first thing he told King Belshazzar was that God had sent" the hand to condemn the people and the King for praising the false gods of gold and silver and failing to honour the Lord. Now that really got the King into a flap. After all, how would you feel if God told you suddenly one day th'i't he wasn't happy with Seaforth atoms win On Fri.

This type of person is extremely- -easy to please when it comes to bring a gift. A fisherman can own two store's full of tackle but his eyes will still light up at an assortment of lures spinners. Every tackle' box could use a set of scales to shrink that 30 lb. fish down to a more believable 10 or 12. A filleting knife also makes a great gift, but get a good one, The blade should be long 'and thin with g handle that is designed to make the knife float if acnidentally dropped overboard. The Ruko shark is my personal choice. Hunters are just about as mad -as fishermen when it comes to collecting gear and paraphernalia for their sport. Ammunifionisulways a good choice as is a new compass. Warm wool socks for the duck blind or a heairy wool shirt for the deer camp are also a good choice.

Buffalo skinners are a little out of date as well. The trend today is to quality belt knives and lock back folders with a belt pouch. It's hard to beat a dropped point knife with a blade between 3 and 4 inches long. A knife like this is capable of any chore from dressing out a cottontail to preparing a moose for the frying pan. Expect to pay 520.00 to $30.00 for a good production knife of this description, If you want to do something a little special for your favorite hunter, buy him a custom made knife. Andre Bajkor of 123 Alpine St., Hamilton, Ontario. L9A 1A7 (416-547-6136) is one of the better knifemakers in Ontario. He hand crafts a wide variety of styles and shapes that are not only fulIntienal and well designed, but a real work of art to look at.

"wan", meant that the Lord would destroy Babylonia in a number of days. "Teker meant that the Kings actions had beenweighed and were found lacking in goodness. "Ilpharsin" meant that all Belshazzar's lands would soon be divided!apiong the Modes and Persians.. Belshazzar, as distressed as he was by Daniels words4 kept his promise and ordered Daniel to be clothed in royal robes. He also made prophet third ruler of t e Kingdom. That very sa e night.

Since that win bowever, its been ,all downhill and their little Kingdom has crumbled under two straight one-sided defeats. Whether or not it was devine retribution will depend on your own 'point of view. The clubs actions have not been good and a series of silly penalties and do overall poor effort have contributed heavily to the Hawks recent decline. During the last two weeks the Flyers and Stars have picked apart the team and divided up the spoils in 7-2 and 9.1 shellackings.
