...NOTEBOOK: First the quarterbacks, now the goalies. Last season's starter Peter Walsh decided to take a year off, and an Amherst forward stepped on Bood's leg. Blood will require stitches to close the gash, and will miss this weekend's action...Eddie Weinfurtner and Bennie Erulkar will tend the twines...The booters' record now stands at 1-2-1 (0-1 in the Ivies)...Their next game is Friday night under the lights and on astroturf at Cornell...URI visits the Business School field next Wednesday--hopefully, in slightly warmer weather...
Forget about that scene in the movies when the pin-striped boss looks at the usually prim secretary and exclaims, "Why, Miss Smith-Mary-you have taken off your glasses!" Nowadays, it is likely to be a Ms. who is doing the noticing. The woman boss, once a corseted cliche in man-tailored suits, has begun to win a reputation for eying the boys in the office. That is the conclusion of a study by two U.C.L.A. psychologists, Barbara Gutek and Charles Nakamura, called "Sexuality and the Workplace." Men, they report, have joined women as victims of sexual harassment...

A Navy study done the same year found that women lose less time than men, partly because of the male penchant for alcohol, drugs and general roistering. Females miss an average of 4.22 days a year, compared with 7.03 for males...
That is a shame, because they miss Freddie Lynn's 39th homer of the year, a frozen rope to right-center in the eighth which brings home Sizemore and ties up the game. Nobody really wants to stay for extra innings against the Blue Jays at the end of the year, and Pudge Fisk complies by clubbing the first pitch of the bottom of the ninth somewhere near Kenmore Square. As Yogi Berra once said, "It ain't over 'til it's over." Well, it's all over: Red Sox 6, Blue Jays 5. They can let the grass grow...
