If the score is tied at the end of regulation play, each team in the first inning sends the player who was the last out in the previous inning to second base as a runner. This sure gives both teams excellent chances to score. In the weekend ladies fastball action, the Exeter Greys won a game in extra innings using this system. Congratulations go to Janet Buchanan and Lynne Farquhar and the rest of the Greys on winning the ladies fastball title with a final game win over Blanshard, a team they Lost to earlier in the event. A good penalty It was interesting to learn last week of a decision handed down by an Ottawa judge in a case against a man who wa3 charged with assaulting a hockey referee. The fan was given a conditional discharge, put on probation for two years, ordered to take a course on refereeing and referee at least 10 houseleague or minor hockey games. After being in charge of 10 games at any level of hockey this fan will learn his lesson and soften his abuse for officials.

A large number of these are playing key roles with a number of clubs. The standouts are Warren Moon who seems to have revitalized the Houston from his quarterback position and coach Bud Grant who is in the midst of creating a miracle with the Minnesota Vikings. Grant came back to Minnesota this season after the club was worse than terrible in 1984 and although two games do not a season make, he appears to have the Vikings back on the right track. Grant is not the only coach to bring out miracles. The other is Darryl Rogers at the helm of the Detroit Lions. Many of the Detroit media made light of Rogers when he was hired out of an Arizona University. The key to Detroit wins in recent years has been Billy Sims, but Rogers has been able to fashion a pair of wins without the help of Sims who is still on the injured list. Song helped Lee Paul tells us that the Paul Brothers and Shit are responsible for the good showing by the Blue Jays on the we kend in New York. Their comedy routine about the Jays was telecast across the United States Wednesday, night on the Nashville Music network and was seen by several area residents by way of satellite dishes. It's too bad the Pauls could not have been at the Yankee Stadium Friday night to sing our National Anthem. The Canadians at the game were doing more laughing than being upset at the way the song was murdered. In years past the Yankees had a Murderers Row, now they butcher our anthem. Oh, well, we won the ball game anyway. >�a .'s......_> .... .-:' ..? �-...:::. :?. .Y.. ,...'-.: - ,.::'.. . . -':: sir •::..:t;.;:'. :" �: Soccer season ends with pair of championship wins The soccer season came to an end very succesfully for Exeter teams this week in playoff action.
