The GDCI junior Vikings were eliminated in the Huron -Perth Conference basketball semi-finals on Tuesday, March 1, losing 58- 48 to the Stratford Nor- thwestern Huskies in Stratford. Bavan Maison, with 15 points led the sharp -shooting Huskies who got on top early, outscoring the Vikings 23-10 in the first quarter. The Vikings dropped back into a zone defence in the second quarter to slow the pace down, but the Huskies still led, 42-23 at the half. The Vikings kept coming and outscored Stratford by six in the third quarter, but the Huskies lead was too much to overcome.

"Once is not enough" is a saying that generates many connotations but to the GDCI it has only y one meaning: "If beating the Foresters once was great, a second win would be tremen- dous." The Vikings from South St. experienced that feeling as. they upset the 14 and 2, Foresters for the second time this season. As was the case in the first match, this game was played expertly by both sides and impressive shots replaced mundane ones at every turn. Anne Duncan, represen- ting female Vikings everywhere, had an outstanding night while Roger Moore's efforts were both visible and highly audi- ble.

" "One more try, please" was the plea of GDCI skip George Sutton as the match between the Huron Health Unit and GDCI Teachers came down to Sutton's final rock of the night. Following a splendid double take out by Health Unit leader Jack .. MacKinnon, a pair of "healthy" rocks rested dP- fiantly in the house but the last rock of the game was still to come. A hit and a roll to the right would win the hard fought contest! Sutton's final shot was typical of his radical personality. It 'hit and rolled far to the left! Final score Health Unit 6 GDCI: 5.

Mrs. Budnark'simprove- ment might be linked to the fact that she is obviously curling for Two! Or perhaps she is just getting more rest nowadays. Helping Dianne on this festive evening was a tremendously accurate Ron Ritchie who apparently has no fear of the term "foreclosure". The trio of Denomy, Teichert and Hamilton used every method found in the "Tell Best Ways To Distract An Opponent Handbook" but Ritchie was impervious to it all.
