The Old Men
Win It All
The XGI-A Basketball team
won the intramural playoffs last
Thursday night with a
convincing 44-27 victory over
the AMF Blue. The old men,
who must have learned a few
tricks in the service, finished the
year unbeaten with a 19-0 log.
The XGrs reached the finals
by beating the Trojans 32-26 in
one of the best intramural games
of the year. On the other side,
AMF Blue beat the Foul Balls,
who had been division leaders, in
their division final 38-30, to earn
their spot in the intramural final.
The XGl's beat them two in a
row, in the best of three game
final series.
The first game won by the
XGrs was a 35-28 victory. They
were led by Paul Wendolowski
with 10 points and Bruce Cox,
chosen Most Valuable Player,
with 8 points.
The final game, the vets were
led again by Cox with 12 points
and a hot handed Bill Bailey
with 12 also. Mike Edward led
the game, Blue team, with 7, the
first game and 9 the last.
The XGl's combined a strong
zone defense with a torrid,
explosive offense and great
rebounding power to remain
unscathed. The inside punch was
supplied by Cox, Wayne
Siegfried, Bob Cook, and Denny
Switzer. Bob Lopez and Steve
Wesley provided the
ballhawking, while Bailey, Larry
White and Wendolowski
provided this outside scoring and
precision like fast breaks. Last
and least, all the twines were
pulled together by the Coach
and ball-handler, Len "Pistol
Pete" Thompson.
POEM
The flashes of the past are here;
The future comes to make me
fear.
The faces that I once forgot
Remind me now of what I'm not
The faces that I always see—
They comfort and they frighten
me.
The faces that are not yet mine
Will bring my Death before my
Time.
The faces then were ropes of
blonde
With which to make a subtle
bond.
The faces now are turning black
And so, my love, Fm going back

ors BSSNB The Point
or New Clothes For An Old MEd
NOVEMBER, 1971—LOVING R
Several times I saw you
and hesitated.
Finally, while you were leaning
against my wall,
I walked up and tried you on
for size.
You were warm and fitted to
my body like an old sweater
known for many years.
Slightly too small
I realized the limitations
in our togetherness.
I know that when winter blows in,
the time will be here
to find myself a new garment.
I was clothed in love for one
summer.
No other clothing will match
that total nakedness.
THE CAPITOLIST
by Samantha Bower
I hope you'll see that when I go
it will not be a rejection
of your warmth and kindnesses
but the knowledge that
for me
you're not quite the right fit,
and for you, perhaps I seem
a bit loose around the edges.
But that's no reason not
to wear each other
through the falling leaves.
I was dreaming and in my
dream I was walking down a lane
in the country. The
down-trodden walkway faded
into the edge of a field. Not
really a field but just an irregular
area where the green-growth was
diminished. Trees no longer
dwarfed me. I started running
and ran until I fell down.
Peaceful, physically exhausted, . I
lay for a while, letting the sun
play its light show on my
eyelids. Walking again, skirts
brushing my legs, I stopped at a
flower. It was just below my
eye-level. I looked at it, smelled
it, touched - it. It was a
half-bloomed primrose. I held
the stem and leaned over it,
cupping it like a drink of water
in my hands, and looked into
the center. I could see another
girl, in another field leaning over
another flower (or the same
flower). I got real close and
looked over her shoulder into
her posie. And there, in the
center, was another field,
another girl, and another flower.
Later that same
thought—maybe rm a flower,
slowly unfolding until the center
is revealed. Or maybe rm a girl
watching flowers. Or maybe I'm
a field growing flowers. Or
maybe I'm just me giving you a
dream to dream about.

Where has Mr. Herpal gone?
Congrats to Mike on his
brilliant chess playing. I once
asked a girl to play on my
checkerboard bedspread. She
was afraid she'd get mated, I was
afraid I'd get rooked. I
convinced her I was a king and
she was as lovely as a queen, so I
pawned her all night. No more
puns, please!
Mr. Paul, We can't see you.
Hello to Bob P., Steve R., Phil
