Page 18 THE HERALD Wednesday August 1983 Summer solstice safeguards I was driving towards and then through the Glen early on Saturday morning wondering what to wnte and staying on the speed limit As I turned into my country lane a litUe mustard car s driver a female tooted long and hard As she passed on her way she went like a bat out of hell Thank goodness there were no soccer players around or cyclists I presume she was upset that I took my time why anyone would wish to speed through the village I have no Idea Perhaps an emergency We who drive have to take more care in these summer times as we have to deal with- pedestrians wrong way cyclists of all ages who often cycle without lights and are a danger to others never mind themselves Regrettably many are young soccer players and I believe that they have good fortune on their side as we rarely hear of injuries on the road Talking of dangers the fields are very hard at the moment with the lack of steady ram and players need to take care of their limbs and feet in particular The return of to the fold no matter for how long is very welcome The surface is still thick with grass for the time being and a few plays are required before the field is In bet ter shape Last week s Inter Coun ty players found it hard going At last weeks Inter County regular monthly meeting vice- president Bryan Turner warned teams to beware of their disciplinary record particularly in the area of dissent towards game officials He stated that he would come down heavily upon miscreants As it turns out United found themselves on the wrong end of referee Luc and received several cautions and two ejections This game alone will keep Turner and his committee busy United were held to a 1 1 tie by Stingers who continue to impress with their good results when least expected United have tied for the second week a row and are breathing down their necks Meantime lost at home to visiting by In the first division no result from the CrownMeteor clash in Bramalea at time of writing Eagles and Marlln played to a tie at Christian and right now Marlin look good for the run in for the title Hapless Manners although leading by 2 1 with 20 minutes left for play managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of vie tory By ALEX TOUGH Villa came through to equalize and then win in the dying moments Another heartache loss for the Mariners All these late game goals lost is a sign of fitness shortage as well as the injury situation Villa are a rejuvenated and changed side and well worth their challenge in the first division Well here we are back at the typewriter after a game of golf and a visit to Out minus a hamburger to continue the col umn Watched Vancouver destroy Vic toria by it should have many more this in the CSL Hanilton were tied by Montreal 2 and North York were held by Win to a score No change at the top of division East where Toronto lead the way It does look as though no one will stop Van who do appear to be a very good side indeed An interesting story comes out of Victoria Who would believe that a heart transplant player would be playmg a contact sport Victoria has one and I believe it is mid fielder Simon Keith a 26yearold midfielderstriker Keith had a transplant two years ago and is back playing top flight soccer and scored Victoria goal on Sunday evenmg last The way he played showed that the disability was no drawback at all as he tackled hard and played hard in order to score Quite an inspiration to us all Georgetown s girls bantams went to Grimsby the other weekend for a tournament One player is certainly worth a men tion was drafted in as goalkeeper and performed so well that the learn won the champion ship under the coaching of Dave Booth former Viking and Manner began nervously and became stronger as the day wore on and even stopped a penalty shot or two performance seem ed to inspire others in the squad and it was a fitting end to the tourney to end up winners against some fairly hot opposition Rugby squad triumphs Action was hoi and heavy in this match between North Rugby Club 2nd Team and Burl ingtoti 3rd Team played at s field on Sinclair Avenue The North side triumphed by a
