Yes, it happened again. The Rams outshot Milton 46-27 at Richmond Hill Arena Sunday evening but it was the same old story. A 4-4 tie. Their fourth tie of the season. But the majority of Rams still think they should have won it. Their reasoning is inspir- ed by a second period rush by Gerry Methe which saw him around the Milton net and appear to jam the puck over the line. The light flashed red but the referee disallowed the goal because the puck â€"â€" he said -â€" hadn’t gone over the red line. The Rams protested mightily but to no avail. I hope the critics are happy now. (Active in high school athletics.

'5 Not being a person who gives up easily I pursued these gentlemen for their reasons for not reading this column. I found that one of them just didn’t take “The Liberal†(may my curses fall upon them!) and the other swore that he’d cancelled his subscription upon discovering I was to fill this space. Recently I conducted a gallup-type poll con- cerning this column. I chose two rather typical high school boys and I posed the question, “Do you read Chip Martin’s witty, provocative, ab- sorbing and fascinating column ?†Their answers were both “Noâ€. so I re-phrased the question. “Do you read Chip Martin’s informative col- “Still No.†By this point your writer was in a state of disbelieving shock. I said to myself, “Self, some- thing is wrong here.†umn One constructive piece of criticism I have received is the request for more interviews so with that in mind, I present the following inter- View. Basketball season is just around the corner and already teams have been chosen and the players are diligently practising their skills. Last week I dropped in on one of these practices and interviewed what I felt was a typical York Cen- tral basketball player. Wilt Chambermaid is the centre on his senior team. He is 6’10†and weighs 103 pounds. “I guess I first became interested in basket- ball during a trip we took down to the Maritimes when I was eight years old. They have quite a few toll bridges down there and instead of hav- ing a man collect your 25 cents. motorists must throw their change into these large plastic bas- kets.‘ Upon being thrown into the basket the change then is funnelled into a machine inside a booth which gobbles up the motorist’s money and allows him to proceed. “Because I was fascinated with this appar- atus I insisted on being allowed to throw the change. To everyone’s astonishment and my great satisfaction I neVer missed. I knew from that point on that basketball] was to be my life.†The game saw the Rams Wilt is perhaps one of the greatest basketball players the York Central system has ever pro- duced but his rise to fame has not come without hardships. “Being 6’10†and weighing 103, I guess I am rather lithe, but this no longer bothers me. Every- one kids me about having to run around in the shower to get wet and that if I turn sideways I disappear. These jibes really used to bother me a great deal until I discovered they were true. All I do now is run sideways up the court and it’s extremely easy to score.†This case is illustrated by the fact that last year Wilt averaged 35 points per game. Defend- ing players were often heard to mutter: “How can you stop what you can’t see.†In the off season Wilt enjoys track and field Rumble Transport “I couldn’t really do very much until my phys ed teacher suggested one event in which I would excel â€"- the pole vault. I stand beside the pit and when anyone knocks the pole down I simnly reach up and replace it â€" great fun, you know.†Has all this fame gone to Wilt‘s head? This writer doesn’t think so. “I try my hardest every chance I get but there is only one thins.r about my playing that I regret. My elbows. Last season I accidentally elbowed the referee and I severely cut him. I have taken up weight training to put a little muscle around those sharp bones in my arms and I am now proud to saxr I have 7 inch biceps.†If you have a chance to see Wilt in action you would be doing yourself a great dis-service to miss him. I feel he is truly one of the great athletes of our time.
