Page 8 THE CLACKAMAS The Sporting Fool Speaks by Aaron Brown House guests and Human Nature . Have you ever had a “house guest” that refused to leave? Yes, sports fans, the sport ing fool in his final appearance will delve into this mystery. It starts harmless at first. The guest decides that he would like to comeover for a visit, just for a few days, to see the sights. Yet, after a week or two, the guest is still there. Does it sound like mother-in-laws (no offense, they are probably lovely, mis understood people)? So the “friend” doesn’t want j to leave and decides that he/she wants to move into the area, and would you be nice enough to let him/her stay until he/she finds a nice place “in the neigh borhood.” Three weeks later, the friend still has not left. In fact, your neighbors and your family com plain that the guest is beginning to irritate the heck out of them. The friend insists that he will withdraw, oops, I mean find another place soon, by this time, your wife decides that she has had enough and goes home to mother. Yes, this “house guest” is so irritating that you decide to do something about it, since ata dinner party the guest made a scene involving differences over the gas for the briquets. Your friends say that they will back you up and help you get rid of this idiot. But, of course, a few of your friends like the guest and aren’t really sure. Now this is where you can take two alternatives. Either you can say “screw my friend, we’re going to fight,” or you can help him find another place of his own peacefully. The first op tion will probably land you a black eye, charges of assault and battery, and your house would probably be destroyed during the fight. Which would you actually choose? Well since no friend ship is worth ruining, especially one thatyou have been cultivat ing for a while (Remember, you’ve given him money, guns and other items), why fight? I think when any normal functioning human being gets into a domestic dispute, the natural thing to do is fight, but the good thing to do is to talk through and work out differ ences. If only everyone lived by the policy. — The Lindros update: Toronto leads Quebec by2forthe heir to the Gretzky throne. — AARGH! The Paul Ysebaert watch has switched channels. Yes, my beloved rookie of the year selection was, gasp, traded to Detroit for Lee Norwood. Hmmm, the possibility of a Yse- baert-Yzenman-Fedorov line is interesting, and no doubt to Red Wing expert Alan Schacht as well. ' SPORTS PRINT Rally has retired... December 5,1990 Yes, Softball wants your pennies.. Dance team to boogie by Aaron Brown Sports Editor Say goodbye to the rally team, and hello to the 1990-91 Clacka mas Dance Team. That enigma ofa Rally squad had been defunct for a few years, according to sources, which paved the way for having a revamped and fresh idea for a Dance Team. Tryouts were conducted last week to fill the positions on the team, which led to quite a few interested people, giving the judges quite a field to chose from. “We had about 26 people come out, which gave us a lot to choose from,” commented Student Ac tivities Specialist Paul Kyllo, who was one of the judges along with Wrestling Coach Jim Jackson, students Susan Frost, and Holly Frost, who is currently choreog rapher for the Gladstone dance team, and will be doing the chore ography for the team. According to Kyllo, it was really difficult to pickout who was to become a member of the team. “We (the judges) had specific criteria that Holly (Frost) had set up for us,” related Kyllo. “There was only one or two points sepa rating all of the potential team members.” Kyllo continued that there was no parity between any of the danc ers since all of them were close together skill wise. “There was really no gap be tween them, which made things really difficult,” stated Kyllo. One interesting note is that thedancers who will be partici pating this year will be practicing at the unholy hour of 6 a.m. Those that were chosen for this early hour dance team were Kerry Aiderman, Janenne Asti, Tami Cushman, Holly Frost, Angy Gulbrandson, Julie Hartzell, Erin Jacobson, Shannon Marra, Kym Nichols, Lisa Oberle, Hill Rinard, Sabrina Sabri, Carla Salle, Anne Schuebel, Cindy Sellers, Alicia Smith, Rebecca St Wennis, Julie Tourville, Diane Whitmore, and Julie Williams. The general populace will probably seeing this group fre quently this year during different events. Stop!

The victory showed a marked improvement over the team’s previous three games, both in shooting the basketball and in rebounding the ball, according to Head Coach Royce Kiser. ‘Yes, we shot the ball pretty well in the game,” commented Kiser. “We also did a much better job in going to the boards, both at the offensive and the defensive ends of the court.” The Cougars shot almost 50% from the floor, going 33-67, in cluding hitting 7 of 17 from three- point range. They also shot 80% from the free-throw stripe, hit ting 20 out of 25 charity tosses. Rick Stevens led a very bal anced scoring attack with 18 points. Chris Lucas followed up with 14 points, while Glen Kiser chipped in 12 points. Lucas led the re bounding with nine boards, while David Daniels dished off eight assists to lead Clackamas. The next action for the Cou gars will be Dec. 6-8 at the Walla Walla Tournament in Walla Walla, WA.
