S -The Caniadian Statesman, Bowmmnvile, Zume 26, 19883 SPORrop J ~ % By Frank Mohun 623-7=4; - 110W GOOD IT IS How good it is- or was - ta get out onl the old golf course again over the weekend. Lait year folks used to say ydisparaglng things about how much we worked. This week- e nd the query was - "Where have you been?" "Don't you play golf anyniare?" And besides, we don't think the nck- ers over us being slightly busy were very fair either. Actually, Sunday's round we really enjoyed - but Friday and Saturday the sparts editor had a little trouble navigating around the fairways. - The following item will «plain. t. i.t t t 1t MUST BE GETTING OLDER Thursday night the old scribe returned to the softball scene and discovered Friday marning that we're an older scribe than we thought - or is that older softball player - or better yet, we should have stayed 'retired". *Seems like our office team was in dire need of a catcher for last week's game and homehow or other we promised to fill in. It wasn't tili later that we were inforni- ed that the pitcher was "pretty fast and has a good curve bail. He is and he bas. *The fast anc we managed to hold most of the time, but thc curve - the best we'vc scen - seemed to elude aur grasp quit. regularly. Our readers wiil remember the days when Bowman- ville was the centre of Intermediate basebali - and It was ]Robbs and Barnes handling thc umpiring chores. The pitcher Ia Gary Hobbs, Carleton University student, son of Umpire Hobbs. His brother - Murray, stars an thé mound for Scugog Cleaners. Anyway - after this catching stint- Friday niorn- Izig we could barely make it out of bed- Boy, were we tore! - particularly the leg muscles. That night we had to play a golf match at the Ashburn course. Teeing the bal replaclng divots and lining up putts were mighty rough, but by Sunday the scribbler had just about recovered. P.S. - We lost the baîl game 4-3, the catcher makingl two marvellous throws - one to third which sailed into left field and another to second that managed to reach centre field. Surprisingly enough we knocked ln a pair of runs - Wlth the bases loaded and two out, but don't think we'Il be eý- asked to catch again. Also managed to edge out a win in the golf. t. t t i.t CASSIUS. CLAY - MY HEROk Don't ask me why but Cassius Clay la our hero. No doubt if anyone was to meet someone as opinionated as our by Cassius, we wauldn't like them, but we baven't met tic eloquent Mr. Clay yet and we like him. He thinks he's good, brags about bimself, and believes the other fighters are inferior. But he is gaad, and bi$ opinions, expressed through poetry, are different, to say the least. Cassius is a breath of fresh air (or bot air as youe mnay prefer) in the rapidly deteriorating business of boxîng. . And he bas proven ta be the best boxer in his bouts, even calling the round when he will claim the knock-out. We don't know if this is an act or If Cassius Clay Is really the type of persan he appears to be. Whatever may be - be usually backs up his rhymes in the ring and after *Ilila said and done he even bas a few kind words for the 4 vanquished.
