be more , than enough as
French could not generate
any offence. Plunkett and
Crawford had a little help as

third baseman Falkiner was
a vacuum, grabbing eight
grounders flawlessly. Austin
led Bedford with two hits.

Golf can be a cruel and frustrating game as this participant in the Sunset Golf Club Junior
Invitiational Tournament learned Wednesday. After making a superb lag putt from con-
siderable distance, the youngster left this one foot putt a few inches short. A total of 60
golfers participated in the one -day event won by Richard Clark of St. Thomas.(Photo by

Men's Slowpitch League
A1119 playoff games
completed despite rain
BY BRUCE BAKER
This past week has to be voted the most
likely to turn a scheduling chairman grey.
With rain delays and cancellations, games
were shuffled around and played on
various diamonds throughout the county.
All 19 playoff games were eventually
played and I'm now pleased to report that
we're back -on schedule and will be finished
before Christmas.
The week got off to a great start (from
my unbiased viewparit) as Goderich
Restaurant jumped out to an early 4-0 lead
and held on to defeat the Bears 7-2. The
Bears put it together later in the week as
they downed Coyotes 11-4 and the
Optimists 10-2. The wins earned the Bears
a second place finish in series Q. Goderich
Restaurant edged the Optimists 5-2 for
their third win and top spot in series Q.
• In series R, the Bulldogs captured top
• spot with a sonvincing win over Carlow.
Garb and Gear ended their season on a
positive note as they dumping the Old-
timers 14-6. This, combined with Carlow's
23-20 win over the Oltimers gave an im-
proving Carlow team second place in the
series.
In B division, Jeffrey's cobras edged
Local 1863 7-5 and Goderich Elevator 12-8
to take first place in series S. Tickers
edged Local 1863 8-7 but the Elevators
already had second place locked up on the
strength of two victories over the union
and Tickers.
In the final series, Champco came from
behind to down Cedar Lodge 16-15
However, the Lodge clinched top spot in
the Series with a 7-3 victory over Meneset.
It took the seventh inning of the final game

before Meneset eliminated the Renegades
7-6 and captured second place in the series..
• This now leaves us with eight teams
advancing to the second round of the
playoffs ' in which ,all series are best of
three affairs.
Sunday night, Jeffrey's Cobras scored
four runs in the fifth to defeat Carlow 7-4
and take a one -game lead in that series.
Although the official score is not in yet,
the 'Bulldogs defeated Elevators to take
the lead in that series. Goderich
Restaurant defeated Meneset 8-6 in the
first game and clinched the series with a
10-8 come -from -behind win Monday. Bears
pounded Cedar Lodge 29-1 to take a one -
game lead in that series.
• League members are urged to think
about the purpose of playoffs. Althoughwe,
have two divisions we are one league. Our
separate A and B champions are a result of
league play. They are awarded trophies
based on their play over the 24 -game
schedule.
The. playoffs are -not designed to
determine separate A and B champions,
that has already been deterniined. The
playoffs are designed to produce a league
champion. .•• ,
If B teams happen to get 'eliminated
early, it should not be all that surprising or
upsetting. It just means they don't qualify
for the league championship. This
structure provides an opportunity for any
team in the.league to be the champions, it
• does not, however; guarantee an easy
road.
• These were the thoughts of the team reps
• when this structure was voted in March 20.
September is a poor time to be com-
plaining about it.
