WHILE CANADA didn’t get
past the qualifying round in
fast month’s World Cup of
Rugby tournament in South
Africa, had there been a pop-
ularity contest our guys
would have been in there for

‘a medal.

"So say. two North Shore citizens’ ’

who should } know, Jan Birtwell was
there as the national coach,.a man,

“who has raised Canadian rugby to

its highest-ever level internationally.
And Peter McMullan, with a cellu-
var for-much

of his stay, was there as the media
relations officer. «

It used to be said of Canadian
Olympic athletes that they were
always the most popular people at
the Game, largely because they
were nice and friendly, but mostly

- because they. didn’t win too often.”

In South Africa there was a di!

ferent reason: Quite different. The -

black people they encountered were
McMullan, the refrain was always
the same:. “We. know what } you ‘did

. to support us." -

What Canada did, of course, was.

apartheid was consigned to the ash-
can.of history. This having been’ ©

The New Zealuad, French and
