Whiltby Council Batties U mpires Somne ditizens might ac- cuse the Town of Whitby Council of striking out on certain counts but they show- ed a good crowd who turned ouIta Peel Park on Sat. that they are good sports who *are garine for anything. The occasion was the "fun" gaine organized by the uimpires of the W.M.B.A. ta .help bring the baseball season ta a close in Whîtby. Last year the men in blue met a team uude up of the mein- bers of the Whitby Police and Fire Departments and this year when they threw out the challenge ta the counicil il was quickly picked up and the gaine was on. When the dust had seltled and the participants were anjaying a post game corn roast il was still undecided who really had won the af- fair but there were a lot of laughs for the players and the crowd. There were cer- tainly same sI range costumes and some even stranger antics on the field as runners headed for third rather than first or through the pitchers maund ta get to second via the short route, there was a canfetti filled basebaîl which exploded ta, the surprise of everyane, Clerk Bill Wallace ended up in handcuffs for stealing second base, Council- lor Gerry Emin showed up with an oversized ping-pong paddle and managed ta give the bail a gaod ride, Keith Birch came ta bat wearing a pair of cricket leg guards and acricket bat. There were up- wards of fifteen players on the field at most limes and there were unexpected hap- penings every minute. Hon- ours for being the best sport of the afîernoan would have ta go ta Councillor Jcwy Thompson, who didn't seemn ta mmnd in the least she was the only gal in the game and enîered inta the spirit of îhings ta the delight of the crowd. The Council teain augmen- ted by niembers frani other municipal deparîmfents was made up of Fred Beckette, Jim Gartshore, Jaohn Good- win, Forbes McEwan, Jerry Harnes, Warren Mawat, Bill Wallace, Gerry Enmn Ron Hawkins, Keith Birch, Brian Custom Repairs I 121 BROCK ST. 668-7341 NORTH * If you've always want- ed a shoe that was hand made, we can help you out! * You'Il flip over the modern design and fine detailing of the shoes!

Assault may consist of merely the attcmpt or threat to apply force, Without any actual force being applîed. As a court in New Brunswick put it, "An assault is committed when a person threatens to apply force and has the ability to do Sa." Q. 1 marricd my first cousin.
