Golden Hawks Face Tough Test

In Final Two Gridiron Games

Waterloo Lutheran University Golden Hawks enter the final two games of the Central Canada Intercollegiate Football conference schedule with their backs against the wall as a result of their 12-8 loss to the

University of Waterloo Warriors last Saturday.

If the Golden Hawks have any aspirations of winning the league title for the second year in a row they must win their next two games.

Both games will be real tests for the Hawks who now have a 4-1 win-loss record.

The Hawks will be on the road this Saturday to play the University of Ottawa Gee-Gees. The Gee-Gees have an identical 4-1 record with the Hawks and both the Hawks and the Gee-Gees share second spot in the C.C.I.F.C.

A win by the Hawks Saturday would leave them with a 5-1 won-lost record and would set the stage for the C.C.I.F.C. finale to be held at Seagram Stadium on Saturday, November 11 when the Hawks host league-leading McMaster University Marauders.

- more - The McMaster squad boasts nine former WLU players, eight of whom played on the Championship Golden Hawks team last year.

A win over Ottawa and McMaster would give the Hawks the league title and an opportunity to play the winner of the Maritime Conference to determine who represents the east against the west in the third annual College Bowl game in Toronto on November 25.

In other varsity sports at WLU try-outs for the varsity volley- ball and teams are being held each week. The try- outs are held twice a week in the gymnasium. The curling team will be selected from the curling club.

The Golden Hawks hockey team under the careful and experienced eyes of head coach Ted Maki continue to work out at the Kitchener

Memorial Auditorium in preparation for the 1967-1968 Ontario Inter- collegiate Athletic Association season.

This year the WLU Golden Hawks and the

Warriors are hosting the second Dominion Life Hockey Tournament, November

24-25 at Waterloo Arena.

The four teams participating in the tourney, which was won by

Sir George Williams University two years ago, include Carleton University from Ottawa, Lake Superior State College from Sault Ste Marie, Michigan, the Warriors and the Golden Hawks,

The teams will be playing for the Dominion Life Trophy.
