Knocked off three oppon- ents, including one bird who tried to oneupmanship me by bring- ing along his own private cue, to make the finals. Should have seen the tiger I faced then. Six feet four, 20 years younger than me, fine golf- er, hawk-eyes of the outstanding hockey goalie he is, and the hottest pool shark in town. Now don't panic, mum, I beat him. It was best three games out of five. He took the first two so fast that all I had a chance to do was chalk my cue and spot the balls he kept knocking in, Isn't this exciting? Well, as we old fighter pilots put it, there I was at 30,000 feet, upside down, out of ammo, and three straight games to win. I knew that only sheer brilliance and naked courage would save the day. So I gave him the old reverse treatment. Instead of making points, I kept losing them. You can do this in Russian billiards. Pretty soon 1 was 28 in the hole. He was about 30 in the clear, a difference of 58. He got over-confident and careless, started knocking the balls around, losing points, and I craftly crept out of the hole, a few at a time. Suddenly he realized this old duffer might beat him, got desperate, and I had him on the run. Nothing to it, really. The thought of the shame if I beat him destroyed his confidence and he was a sitting duck. That's my story, • • anyway, and there were no wit- nesses. Speaking of games, never play them with women. I found put years ago that the only game you can play with them is the love game, and even there you have about as much chance of winning as you have with a slot machine. Women are completely devoid of sportsmanship, hate to be beaten and turn cold or hot with rage when they are, Knowing this, I foolishly took part in a mixed curling bonspiel the other day. The girls haven't changed. They played as though the six-dollar prizes were solid gold Cadillacs. Still on sports, the winter carn- ival season is in full swing. I guess they're a good thing. Give people a chance to get stoned to the eyeballs or roar about on their skidoos, releasing their ag- gressive tendencies. The height of something occurred at one of these events the other day. Winner of the ice-fishing con- test collected a free holiday in Nassau. The winner? A 4 1/4- inch perch. And a last word on games. The Liberal leadership mara- thon is on and the pack is off and running. But the bulldogs, greyhounds and just plain mutts are all looking over their should- ers at that darned French poodle coming up fast. My suggestion: call the race off and ask Dief to take over as leader. Winston Churchill crossed the floor of the House and look how far he went. And wouldn't the Old Chief have a lovely time ripping into Stan- field?
