"What this team needs is a
good joke," smiled soccer coach
Herb Lauffer after a disap
pointing loss to Slippery Rock,
"and the biggest joke I can think
of right now is Indiana." I guess
you had to be there, as the old
saying goes, and there Denny
Grace was. In fact, Denny was
there three times, scoring three
goals to pace the Cubs to a 4-2 win
over Indiana.
More important perhaps than
the four goals scored was the
pressure Behrend put on the
Indiana defense, pressure the
Cubs failed to use against Slip
pery Rock. "We want a blue
jersey on every ball," stated
Coach Lauffer before the game,
"and we don't want to -let them
settle the ball and start an of
fensive drive."
Along with excellent pressure,
the Cubs also displayed some fine
passing. Although there is still a
tendency of the team to often
carry the ball instead of affecting
a pass, the team showed some
excellent .give and go plays, not to
mention some good passes and
chip shots. Behrend had some
trouble in the second half when
the wind was in their faces,
causing any high kicks to "hang
up" in the air.
Denny Grace opened up the
scoring in the first quarter on a
fine pass from halfback Steve
Martin. Denny did it himself on
his second goal, ramming the ball
into the upper right corner of the
goal from about the 18.
Steve Motycka showed some of
the speed that Behrend is noted
for this year, on the Cubs' third
goal. Streaking in from his left
wing position on a breakaway,
Motycka collided with the
onrushing goal keeper, getting
just enough on the ball to put it in
the net and the harrassed goal
keeper out of the game.
Grace got the Cubs' fourth goal
at the beginning of the second half
Club Offers Involvement
Have a little free time for
something more than just sitting
in the dorm? Want to get out and
meet some people? Why not join
the Behrend Booster Club and get
involved? Everyone is invited to
join. Students, campus staff, or
members of the faculty can all
take part.
Members are required to at
tend the scheduled meetings.
These meetings may be con
cerned with topics pertaining to
chartering buses to away games
and to making signs for an up
coming game.
Also any member is en
couraged to offer suggestions or
new ideas for improving the club.
It is hoped that with the help of
you, this year's Booster Club will
plan some interesting events. The
High Again
Win Saturday
on a pass from Bob Jeffery to
complete Behrend's scoring.
Indiana's first goal came in the
second half on a direct kick from
the 18 that just cleared Behrend's
defensive wall. Indiana's final
goal was a chip shot that barely
beat Cub goalie, Mickey Brosuis.

Last weekend a buddy of mine
and myself packed up our
sleeping bags, a tent and enough
food for three days and left on a
trip I will remember for quite
some time. Our destination was
Mosport, Canada home of the
Canadian Grand Prix Race. We
crammed all of our camping
equipment into his small MGB on
a warm Friday afternoon and
expected plenty of beautiful
weather all weekend. Boy was
that ever a mistake! I heard that
Canadian weather changes very
quickly and now I believe it. The
sun could be shining brightly and
before you knew it the rains were
pouring down. It seemed like we
went through all four seasons in
those three days. Aside from the
unexpected weather the trip was
an enjoyable event.
When we arrived we pitched
camp, fixed some supper, and
tried to relax somewhat from the
six hour journey. It did not really
seem that bad because the
scenery was fantastic. After we
ate we went to the garage to take
a look at the cars. If you have
never seen a formula I car or any
professional race car you are
missing one of the most beautiful
sights ever seen. The crafts
manship in these fantastic pieces
of machinery is amazing. Each
and every-car is well taken care
of by its team of mechanics and is
totally stripped and rebuilt before
every race.
As we walked through the
garage watching the mechanics
busily prepare the cars for
Saturday's preliminaries we
would stop and take pictures of
some of the most famous cars in
the racing business. The first car
we saw was the Tyrell which was
to be driven by the World
Champion Jackie Stewert. He
had already won the title with two
races remaining but still chose to
drive in this race to give the
Canadian fans a look at his
winning car. As we moved farther
down the line we saw the Yardley
McLaren team busily rebuilding
the engine in the car that Jody
Sheckter would be driving. Along
side of Sheckter's car were the
cars driven by Dennis Holme and
Peter Reuson.
MEM
The next set of cars we saw
were the John Player team Lotus
driven by Emerson Fittipaldi and
Ronnie Peterson. These cars
were in my opinion the best
looking as they were black with
gold stripes and lettering. They
also had two fine drivers riding in
them. Then as I glanced down I
saw my most favored car of them
all. The U.O.P. Shadows • driven
by George Follmer and Jackie
Oliver. They were sleek
machines, black in color with
white lettering. I hoped one of
these cars would win the race. We
walked on further and saw the
rest of the cars competing, the
Ferraris, the Surtees and the
Brabhams. Then we decided to
call it quits for the night and
headed back to our tent and went
to sleep.
Saturday was trial day and we
spent most of it watching the cars
run the track which is 2.459 miles
in measurement. Ronnie Peterson
had the best time of all so be
would have the pole position for
the race. The biggest surprise in
the positions was Jackie Stewert
who was placed tenth. Everyone
figured that he would be right up
front, and I think he would have
too if he hadn't already won the
championship. That night was
full of wild parties and all night
movies in the pitts, and everyone
was getting excited for Sunday's
big race.
Sunday morning seemed
dismal as it rained until about
eleven. The race was supposed to
start at two thirty, and we figured
it might be delayed. Before we
knew it the sun was shining and
the cars were out warming up.
The race started on time with a
thunderous roar from the engines
of the twenty five cars competing.
Ronnie Peterson held the lead
for quite, some time until he
pulled in for a pitt stop, then
Emerson Fiittipaldi and Jody
Sheckter were fighting for the
lead with Francois Cevert close
behind. On the 32nd lap Cevert
tried to pass Sheckter and the two
cars collidid and spun off into the
guard rail. Neither driver was
hurt, but the ambulance was sent
onto the track when this hap
pened. The pace car came out and
all the cars were lined up in single
file behind it. The cars were to be
lined up in order of their position
in the race, but there was plenty
of confusion when number 21 Niki
Lauda, appeared to have the lead
car number 5, Jackie Stewert, in
second and Fittpauldi in third.
The race was slowed down until
the tow truck could remove the
wrecked cars. As soon as this was
done the pace car left the track
and the race resumed with
confusion mounting on who was
really the leader.
Getting close to the end Peter
Reusen was making a strong bid
to overtake the leader which was
now Emerson. Fittipaldi. He
passed him in the 76th lap and
held on to get the victory. Fit
tipaldi, however, claimed he was
one lap ahead of Reuson so he
should have won_ After four hours
of deliberation and re-checking of
lap times, Reuson was declared
the winner_ The race was ex
tremely close all the way and it
was exciting even though the
championship had already been
won.
We packed up our belongings
and headed back home. This trip
seemed longer because there was
nothing to look forward to, but we
rehashed all that went on that
weekend. We are planning to go
back again next year and I am
looking forward to it. For anyone
who hasn't seen a major race I
recommend trying to see a Grand
Prix. It is a lot of fun and
something you will remember
forever.
