the good life?;
WHEN I WENT to bed at 11:00 p.m. last Friday night, I knew
that I would awake to an extraordinary day. By the grac-
iousness and diligence of Mr. Will Perry, Sports Information
Director 'par excellence, I had a press box pass waiting for me
in East Lansing. By the misfortune which foul luck inflicts upon
her victims, I already had in my possession a free pass to An-
gell Hall and this month's session of the law boards.
I was so caught up in the excitement of the day that I failed
to grapple with a few elementary problems - the first of which.
is my innate inability to sleep the night before such days, which
predictably struck as I arose at seven, after five hours of troub-
led rest.
My next problem was one of logistics. I unfortunately
believed the LSAT propaganda which states that you will
leave the test area at or before 1:00 p.m. If I had indeed
been released at 1, I still would have had to get home, change,
eat, get in my car and negotiate the 75 minute drive to MSU
by 3:10. Oh yes, never having been to East Lansing, I didn't
know the way.
Needless to say, everything didn't go according to schedule.
I decided to breakfast at the Campus Grill because it seemed
quick and easy. Not only was the proprietor slow, but he was
surly; taking as an extremely personal affront my request for
whole wheat toast and desire for eggs "over easy."
The law boards weren't much fun, and true to form, the proc-
tors at the boards held us captive agonizing minutes longer than
expected as they meticulously adhered to procedure before dis-
missal. My watch offered no consolation as it ticked to 1:20 as I
raced out of the test room.

Cincinnati slips by sox6-5

CINCINNATI (A) - Joe Mor-I
gan's bases-loaded single in the
bottom of the 10th inning gave
the Cincinnati Reds a tense 6-5
victory over the Boston ; Red
Sox in the third game of the
World Series last night.
The victory gave the Reds a
2-1 edge in the best-of-seven
seriesdwith Game 4 scheduled
for tonight in Riverfront Sta-
dium.
MORGAN'S hit sailed over the
pulled-in Red Sox outfield after
the Reds had loaded the bases
with noneout on a leadoff single
by Cesar Geronimo, an error by
Boston catcher Carlton Fisk on
a controversial bunt in front of
the plate, and an intentional
walk to Pete Rose.
Red Sox reliever Roger Mor-
et, trying to work his way out of
an almost impossible jam,
struck out pinch hitter Merv
Rettenmund, but then surren-
dered the winning hit to Morgan.
Until the 10th, this game had
been an exchange of home runs
with each team tagging three to
tie a World Series record.
Dwight Evans tied the game
for Boston with a dramatic
ninth-inning two-run homer, but
it only prolonged the game an-
other inning.
GERONIMO, who had one of
the Reds' homers earlier, led off
the 10th with a line single to
right against reliever Jim Will-
oughby.
Reds' manager Sparky Ander-
son sent up Ed Armbrister to

bat for reliever Rawly Eastwick.
Everybody in the stadium knew
that Armbrister's job would be
to sacrifice Geronimo to second
with what hopefully would be
the winning run.
Armbrister did just that, tap-
ping the ball in front of the
plate. Fisk leaped out from be-
hind the plate and seized the
ball quickly, firing it to second.
But Armbrister and Fisk ap-
peared to collide, the throw was
bad, and Geronimo was up in a
flash and on his way to third.
Armbrister reached second on
the play and the Reds were in
business.
R 0S E was walked inten-
tionally, loading the bases for a
possible force at any base and
Moret came on to face Detten-
mund.
The lean left-hander struck
out Rettenmund, a right-handed
batter who was swinging for
Ken Griffey. That brought up
Morgan with the Red Sox in-
field and outfield stilltpulled in
perilously close on the light-
ning - fast synthetic turf.

Morgan, who had contributed
a defensive gem to save a Bos-
ton run earlier in the game,
came through, delivering a fly
ball that fell behind center
fielder Fred Lynn for the win-
ning run, and ending this
strange, exciting game.
FOR A WHILE, it seemed
the Reds would run the Red
Sox right out of Riverfront.
Theirrawesome power, held in
check for two games, erupted
with a two-run homer by John-
ny Bench in the fourth inning
and consecutive homers by
Dave Concepcion and Geronimo
in thetfifth as Cincinnati seiz-
ed control with a 5-1 lead.
But the Red Sox weren't fin-
ished that easily. They built a
run without a hit, cashing in
two walks, a wild pitch and
Lynn's sacrifice fly in the sixth.
They added a run in the sev-
enth on Bernie Carbo's pinch
homer and then tied it on
Evans' shot in the ninth.
RELIEVER Will McEnaney
opened the ninth by slipping a
third strike past Lynn. But Rico
Petrocelli drilled a single to
center, his second hit of the
game and sixth of the Series.
Anderson, playing the per-
centages, went to his bullpen for
Eastwick, a right-hander, to re-
place the lefty M c E n a n e y
a g a i n s t the right-swinging
Evans. But the strategy back-
fired when Evans drilled his
homer.
