In their final match against a strong Madill team, the Senior Redmen won the first game by a 15-12 score but dropped the final game by a 15-11 score. The Senior Redmen had difficulty ad- justing to the very low ceiling at Norwell but their play improved as the day progressed. Improved play by recently added setter John Lavis was a definite asset. The Senior Redmen now have 13 points on the season and are in a solid position to qualify for the playoffs. The next Redmen tournarnant is October 21, at Central Huron.

As mentioned a few weeks back (as Bob Dylan would say), the times, they are a changin'. If all goes right, when you open your paper to the second section next week, you will see the all new recreation pages. (Not the whole section, but a few pages). I'm about ready to give it a shot. I've taken the photos for my very first feature, and all that remains are a few interviews to get my facts right on the feature sub- ject. It will be my first sports feature, and I hope you'll enjoy it. With that feature out crf the way I'll have only two things to worry about before next Monday. First there will be my column, which always proves difficult to write. But my second worry, which is far more important than my column, is getting enough copy for these new recreation pages. I know, I know, I'm always harping about getting more copy, but I have a reason for this. It seems no matter what I do, the flow of copy coming in never increases. Sure, my regular contributors such as the bowlers, high school teams, and the Mustangs keep contributing, but that's about where it stops. Is it my breath? Should I change my col- ogne? Why not give me a call with your DRVID EMSLIE news? There must be some proud parents, players or coaches out there who would like to see their team's achievements in print. Just give me a chance to improve and expand your recreational coverage, and I'll do my best. Like I've said before, if no one involved with the team wants to write up a story, so- meone can just call in and give me the facts. If, however, no one wants to be bothered calling in with the facts, how about giving me a number 1 can call to ask for the facts. That's how 1 work it with the Clinton Junior "D" Mustangs. Just a five minute call to the team's manager, and I'm able to keep people up to date on their latest statistics. So, there you have it. Just give me a story, a call or a number, and I'll take care of the rest. You probably. know how to reach me by now. but here it is again. nava Fm' lin 'it 482-9502. And once again, if you're dropp- ing something off, and the office is closed, just stick it through our mail slot. One final reminder. Since the second section ( with the recreation pages I will be put together on Monday afternoons, we have to have any written copy in by noon on Monday. Thanks for hearing me out on this new section this one final time. I'rn just trying to make it work. This should be my final request for help anyways, because by this ,time next week, it will be too late. Volleyball I seem to be just full of reminders this week, but here goes another one. Don't forget, everyone is welcome to at- tend the first session of Monday Night Volleyball at St. Joseph's Separate School next Monday night I Oct. 26 i. If I'm not too depressed about the results of my first attempt at putting together the recreation pages, I should be out to join the fun. Redmen edge Stratford On October 15 the (ventral Huron Redmen junior football team travelled to Stratford to play against the Northwestern Huskies. In the first half the defense was having trouble containing the strong Huskie of- fense. The Stratford team scored first, but the Redmen were quick to respond. The offensive team blocked hard to allow Steve Vandendool to run in for the touchdown. Keith Ducharme was successful in kicking the point after. The Huskies, however, persisted and scored again late in the half putting the Redmen down 14-7 coming into the second half. The Redmen defense was more effective in the second half. The Stratford team was completely shut down and they weren't able to put another point on the board. This inspired the Redmen offense, under the quarterbacking of Daryl Hemingway, and Steve Vandendool ran in for his second touchdown of the game. Ducharme brought the score to 14 all with the conversion kick. With time running out, the Redmen had possession and Steve Vandendool punted the Huskies ball into the Huskie end zone, and with the speed of the punting team the Stratford player was taken down for the safety point. That put the Redinen into a 15-14 lead that held out until the game's end. Stratford put on the pressure in the dying seconds, but they couldn't score. With this win the Redmen's football record for the 1987 season stands at two wins and two losses. The last game of the regular season will be against Norwell at home ori October 22 at 2:00 p.m. Coyne out and cheer them on. Mustangs drop to two and five record The Clinton .Junior 'I)" Mustangs' win - loss record continued to slide this past week. It now stands at two wins and five losses. They started off last week's play with a two and two record, but dropped to two and three on October 14 when they lost 8-2 in l,ucan. Bobby Ladd and Steve Vandendool .scored for the local squad. • Their luck didn't improve at all when they played host to Exeter on October 16.
