The GMSI, season began on Mother's
Day May 10. Since then, 300 regular season
games and 78 play-off games have been
played. That's a lot of ball in 119 days!
Surely, by now we must3cnowswcho_ tciLl-bo
advancing to our semi final round. Not so
guys! With only six games remaining,
many spots are still up in the air. I've been
doing this scheduling and write-up for
more years than my knees have left and
I've never seen the race so close and the
battles so intense. And this was achieved
without a draft system. Simply amazing —
but then, so too is our sport of Slowpitch!
Let's start with C Division this week.
The Lakeview Ranchers have Cl locked up
as they now post the only undefeated
record in the league. After that it gets pret-
ty messy ! The key match -up is Murphys
Law vs. Local 1863. If Local 1863 wins, they
move into an eight point tie with Murphys,
but gain the final play-off position as a
result of their win. Should Murphys win the
game, we will have a three way circular
tie for second place. It is circular in that
Murphys beat Little Bqwl who beat
Chisholm TV who beat Murphys. Since all
three would advance anyway, we would
look at run differential to deterrrline their
relative standings. At present, Little Bowl
has a plus 28, Chisolm TV has a plus 32 and
Murphys still have the key game to play.
This key match -up will have been played.
by the time you read this! Rather anti-
climactic isn't it?
B Division, the hornets nest of slowpitch
all year long, seems to have cooled down.
Suncoast Restaurant, plagued with in-
juries and old age (-may go together) drop-
pedtwo straight this week to fall to a solid
B3 finish. Though Home Hardware could
move into a numerical tie withDearborn, if
they beat the Raiders, Dearborn would stil
gain B4 on the strength of their win over
Home Hardware. The only real question is
who will finish first? Parkhouse must win
their final game to clinch it, otherwise they
are doomed to a second place finish and a
short losing series to Suncoast `1 sorry Wal-
ly, I couldn't resist it! )
Now for A Division. They have screwed
things up so badly,. that I don't even want to
talk about it — but here goes! Goderich
Chrysler, written off long ago by all but
one, rallied to - down B—oyes 5-2 amt-knock.--r5tiirs'
off Ideal Supply 10-5 in eight innings. Now Shanahans
they are back into contention. At the same
time, Canadian Tire lost two straight'
They owed me one and got back, plus a bit ,
with those losses!
Should the Coyotes defeat Thruway ,•we
are--th n. into a four-way tie for second •
-
place, unless the Bulldogs can also defeat
Sunys — in which case it is a three way tie
for third! All teams are urged to contact •
me as soon as the outcomes are known'
Run differential is not used to eluniriate'.
a team from play-offs' We could well be
forced into a "mini" play-off round to
&etermine which team is eliminated'
All this is far too much for my brain to
comprehend. We'll have to sit back and
await the outcomes of our final six games.
'I would encourage team reps to submit
scoresheets "immediately" following the
game. I need them to plan accordingly '
Also, the next general league meeting is
set for Mon. Sept. 14 at *14) pm. 'Nomina-
tion forms for next year's'executive as
well as recommendations for constitu-
tional revisions should he in to 'Pini
Frawley by then. •
For those with long; memories, you tinny
now recall earlier predictions and realize
that they were 75 percent accurate. Next
week you will read the Brewsters picks fur
semi final action. I could tell you now
but why waste a column'

Old-timers clinch title
in ladies slow pitch
BY KATHLEEN CARTER
Even though all playoff games are in-
complete, a 1987 Goderich Ladies'
Slowpitch 'A' Championship team has
been determined.
The Oldtimers clinched their title after
beating Sifto Goodtimers 5-4 on September
2. The win gave the Oldtimers a 6-1 win
record in the standings, while Sifto,
Go-4-Ettes, Night Owls and Samuelsons
each accumulated three or more losses to
put their hopes of winning at a standstill.
Oldtimers' winning game was a tough
one from the first pitch, with the Sifto team
ommitting three errors on a hit to centre
field which gave Shirley Schmidt of the
Oldtimers a homerun in the fifth, to'take a
5-4 lead.
Sifto's last at -bat had their -opponents on
their toes, as they managed to get the
bases loaded with two out. But all attempts
to score the tying run were overpowered
by the Oldtimers" team. Although the
Oldtimers meet with the Go-4-Ettes on
.September 8, win or lose, the Oldtimers

tions ladies! -
The 'B' division teams however, are still
battling it out with Bruno's and Hot Shots
tied at six wins each. The other three
teams; Nile, Meneset and Double Blue,
have also accumulated three. or more
losses, to put them out of playoff title ter-
ritory. Stay tuned for more 'B' division -ac-

Pairs advance in Canadian
Open Bridge championships
Mary Donnelly teamed with Eleanor Er-
skine to score 74 points and advance to the
next round in Canadian Open Pairs Bridge
Championships.
Qualifying round play was held at the
Goderich Duplicate Bridge Club, Sept. 1,
with the top five teams advancing.
Bev and Henry Perala took second with
69 points, Anna Godley and Verna Worthy
were third with 64 points, Don Godley
teamed with Archie Hamilton to score 54.5
and Dawna Sproule and Mari; Hall finish-
ed fifth with 54 points.
The Club was saddened by the recent
loss of one of its charter members. Frank
Donnelly had been an active player since
the early thirties, when the Goderich
Duplicate Bridge Club was formed. Over
the years, Mr. Donnelly participated in
many Canadian and international tour-
naments. His keen wit at the bridge table
will be missed.
