calls the police, this is a reference to a

opposing team's flag. The team that
cptures their opponents' flag first wins.

game. You can capture the other team's
people, andputthemin prison." Aplayer

Lady Cav’s
Defeated by Lack
of Experience
By Jennifer Moore
Fate was not on the Lady
Cavalier's side last evening. The
ladies traveled to Bluefield, VA to
defeat the Virginia volleyball team.
M-AC tried to hold up against the
Bluefield team, however, they were
unsuccessful. According to Coach
Chaplain, the ladies just did not play
well.
The Lady Cav's made another
attempt for victory on September
11, when they challenged Lee Col
lege here at M-AC. The home court
advantage was not on their side. The
home team was defeated three games
in a row. Coach Chaplain stated,
"They were just a lot more experi
enced than us."
After a rough match with Lee,
the ladies turned right around and
took on Covenant College later in
the afternoon. Although the home
team fought hard and forced the
visitors to withstand five games in
which the teams rotated victories,
they were finally defeated in the

in January 1992, volunteers have
seen tremendous growth and true
dedication of lives to Christ

Home Alone 2 Captures Campus’s Attention
By Cara Weiss
Montreal is taking the fi
nancial burden for recreation off of
students. Every Friday night, at 8:30
on the upper deck of Belk Center, a
different movie will be shown. Cary
Willcox, and the Student Activities
Committee have already chosen the
movies for the month of September.
Next month is baseball month, and
all the movies that will be shown will
pertain to baseball.
The movie being shown this
Friday will be Home Alone 2. It's
about a little boy, Kevin, being left
fifth game.
Even though the ladies have a
few more losses than wins, they are
looking for a good match with Clinch
Valley on September 20, here at
McAlister Gym. Coach Chaplain
feels that they have a good chance of
winning. He replied, "They are a good
bunch of kids, struggling with confi
dence. They just need something posi
tive to happen." Healso stated thattheie
was only one girl on Clinch Valley's team
who could prove to be a real threat,
because she hits exceptionally well.
home again during Christmas time.
He finds himself alone in New York.
The two shmucks, who tried to break
into his house in Home Alone, are
chasing him through New York.
Kevin keeps playing tricks on them,
which causes them lots of pain. But
they still keep after him. This movie
contains a lot of suspense, so it may
even hold the interests of Montreal
students with poor attention spans.

Boredom Ends
By Sean Anderson
Tired of nothing to do on
Friday night? Then come play
miniature golf in Asheville.
There will be a group leaving

be a shuttle bus driving to
Asheville. The cost is free, but

This promises to be an excit
