connelly part ii last week stouffville umpire bob french told of the absence of young umpires in todays game spectators especially those that call themselves umpires while they sit 100 feet away in the bleachers are a precarious group that play a critical role in the deference of young umps i have been verbally abused in games but theres a type of psycholo gy to be used in handling mad players and coaches i try not to stand face to face with them when theyre yelling at me that might promote some physical contact i usually turn sideways to the per son and listen to what they have to say explained french however some umpires are not so compromising cliff bass has been limping for 21 years he re mained steadfast in his handling of an upset coach or spectator ill stand toetotoe with them and if the arguing persists ill walk away remarked the 37yearold claremont resident bass a geography and physed teacher in north york took a different approach to the scarcity of new umpires he reasoned that teens are more in terested in playing softball thanumping he also maintained that a sense of humour is in- dispensible in such a tense position you cant take the game too serious ly you have to laugh a lot after some games though i have said to my- sttlf ghats itncvcr again but i come back- you have to have fairly thick skin patience and good judgement he added bass recalled a game he worked 15 years ago in pickering where his pati ence and good judgement was tested by an inadver- tent spectator the drunken fan physically attacked him but fortu nately no one was injured in the skirmish so why does bass con tinue to park himself be- s hind homeplate in what appears to be a thankless job its a great way to spend my summers off as a teacher the game needs umpires and then theres the comaradie you get with the ball players its a good feeling cliff dunkeld a stouff ville resident and umpire for 25 years knows all ab out that good feeling hes been on both sides of the fence coach of va rious hockey and softball teams and an umpire dunkeld beliqves theres more stress in coaching than umpiring as a coach i can secondguess myself well maybe i should have done this or that an umpire makes the call and he has no opportunity to question his decision worry about it or change it said dunkeld umpires today operate under a mandatory law that they must carry one- million dollar liability in surance umpires arc liable the moment they shout play ball remarked rich pict- tc a junior umpire who lives in stouffville rich the son of local umpire and chief al piettc le

winning streak next wednesday night when it hosts newmarket norman ewing remembered a fragile situation in a mens slo- pitch tournament last year it was pouring rain right up to the start of the tournament the field was full of puddles we didnt like the look of it so we made the teams sign waiv ers which cleared myself and the other umpire of liability explained piette umpires dont like to take chances when mur phys law looms over the ballpark diamond if a runner tripped on his way to a base and broke his neck or even sprained his ankle in some freak acci dent that runner warned piettc could sue the township sue the umpires association or sue the umpire himself the plaintiffs premise for the suit might be an unfit di amond he said threatening fans thre atoning law suits although rare and splitsecond de cisionmaking appear insi dious agents of a strcssfull job maybe the all- important question is not why the umps do it but how they cope french dunkeld bass and piettc unanimously agreed on four innate ing redients that evidence a good ump strikezone consistency credibility confidence and the acute abili ty to tunc out noisy pa- a face full of dust and youre out get
