Helped Defeat Cambridge

‘Local Man Rowing at Oxford

Michael Moran
By GREG JOYCE
'Nelson News Sports Editor

Michael Moran has come a

long way since he started com- °

petitive rowing at Brentwood
College on Vancouver Island in
his final year of high school.

Now 22, Moran added ano-
ther feather to his oar last week
when he helped Oxford defeat
Cambridge by seven lengths ih
the 128rd university boat race
on the River Thames.

How did Moran, a native of
Castlegar, work his way onto
the prestigious Oxford eight for
the classic four-mile race down
the English river?

The long climb began in
1969 when he began a three-
year stint at Brentwood Col-
lege, near Duncan. But it
wasn't until his final year at
Brentwood that Moran began
to demonstrate his prowess asa
future world-class rower.

After capturing the school-
boy title in B.C, in 1972, Moran

and the Brentwood crew
travelled to St. Catherine's and
managed to row away with the
Canadian Schoolboy Champion-
ship.

- He entered the University
of British Columbia the fol-
lowing autumn and began work
on a BSe, degree with the
major emphasis in the field of
cell biology. S

Among his accomplish-
ments while studying for four
years at UBC were rowing ap-
pearances at the 1973 Canada
Games, a bronze medal at the
Pan-Am Games (1975) in
Mexico City and last, but not
least, a trip to England last
summer where he and his
rowing mates won the Henley
Steward’s Cup.

His rowing ability  well-

established, Moran applied and -

was accepted into. Oxford’s
Cable College and began. his
formal studies in physiology (he
is not discounting the . pos-
sibility. of medical schdol) in
October, 1976,

Oxford, however, has
dozens of superb rowers and

Moran, while playing an in-

tegral part of Cable College’s
rowing teams, had one further
tryout to undertake before be-
coming a part of the No. 1
Oxford team.

At Season's End

Ladies Beat Pensioners

: By JOHN DALZIEL

. Welll Well! The column J
have been looking for for the
past ‘five months has finally
turned up.

This will be the last blurb
of the 1976-77 season and it is
with somewhat mixed feelings
that I'sit tapping it out. As
usual it has been somewhat of a
mixed experience with the
usual ups and downs, successes
and failures but, once again, the
plus factors have finished on

top. .
Perhaps the greatest bene- -

fit I have had from these
weekly notes has been the old
friends I have been able to ré-

tain and the new ones I haye -.
been fortunate enough to col--

tect. When I'am stopped on the
street with the remark "I really
enjoyed your column in last
week's paper” it sort of leaves
me with the feeling that it is all
worthwhile and the doubt that I
might not continye is resolved,
for a while at least.

Typing out these com-
ments is not really a‘chore. In

" fact, once I sit down and get

started I get.a lot of ‘quiet’

(enjoyment out of “doing it.
’ Phere‘has béen the odd ‘time 1:

have been left with the’ im-
pression that someone or other

has not been too well-pleased
with something I have written,
If this is so, I am sorry, for I
have never intended to say
anything that could offend. -
‘The-success of the curling

Now that is out of the way
there area couple of items with
which to close the column.
First, the serio-social get to-
gether between the ladies of
the Afternoon Curlers and the

cluband the
young-at-heart seniors with
whom I.have been associated
for the past four years has been
the sole object of this en-
deayor. :

Now I am stepping down
from the. presidency of the
Pensioners Curling Club but
will still be in there helping to

Castlegar News

keep it the success’ it has
proved to be. I also hope to be
able to keep you posted on the
happenings of that body when
next November rolls around.
In the meantime I’ hope
that each and every one of you
will have a real good summer
and be able to do some of the
things -you have’ always ‘wanted
“to but‘inéver “got: around to.
Have a good time, and see you
on the ice next season.

last W

those girls were out for blood—
and they got it. In the four

matches played,.the boys could J

only manage to finish ahead in
one, and that by a squeaker.

Thad looked forward to
playing in these “games but
other matters kept me away
until almost noon and I only got
in one end playing for the

the opposition at that. Maybe it
was a good thing I didn’t get
there any earlier. °

In the social department,
however, the ladies really out-
