Letters to the Editor 09-08-1998
- Clinton Lies - Affairs Are Wrong - Clinton Scandals - Wants Owen's Back Clinton Lies Editor, Times-Union: If I only read, listened and viewed the national media, I would come to believe that Bill Clinton has made a few public and private mistakes to blight his record as an astute government leader through the years.Fortunately, I learned long ago that many things read, heard and seen require more substantive investigation in arriving at the truth.Bill Clinton's reign has cost us all a lot of money because of his refusal to tell the truth up front, for he knows the truth would have kept him from the position of power he holds today.
Plymouth Wallops Wawasee
Syracuse -ÊThe Wawasee Warriors came into Friday's football game with state- ranked Plymouth short-handed. The Warriors were missing their leading rusher, Logan Lees, who had rushed 85 times for 367 yards this season.His presence was sorely missed as the Rockies stuffed the run and silenced the Wawasee crowd on senior night with a 48-19 drubbing of the home team. The action started early when Plymouth kick returner and running back Andy Barker returned the opening kickoff to the Wawasee 45-yard line, but the Rockies were then pushed back to their own 15 when they were called on a clipping penalty. Unnerved by the penalty, Plymouth marched down field. On a first and 10 from their own 31-yard line, Barker mimicked his kick return and barrelled 32 yards before being corralled by the Warrior secondary.
Barrett Finds His Form
NORTH MANCHESTER - If Manchester All-State running back candidate David Barrett had a subpar game last week against Rochester gaining only 80 yards, then he certainly made up for it Friday night. Barrett ran the ball 40 times, racking up 287 yards and four touchdowns along the way as he helped his Squires beat rival Southwood 42-28.The win also meant that Manchester sits alone atop the TRC standings with just two games remaining. Both teams came into the contest with undefeated records in the conference.And it looked early on as though Southwood would be in first place at the end of the night After Squire fullback Greg Groombridge put his team ahead 7-0 late in the first quarter, Southwood stormed back with 14 unanswered points.The Knights' D.J.Marshall returned the Manchester kickoff 78 yards to tie the score up at 7-7.Manchester coach Al Bailey was concerned about the effect the kickoff return would have on his team.

Last year the Tigers shared the NLC title with NorthWood, but a 29-28 overtime win over the Panthers last week put Warsaw's destiny in its own hands. And the Tigers fulfilled that destiny.The win over Concord left the Tigers the lone undefeated team in the NLC and gave them the outright title for the first time in 10 years. Although Concord was 2-6 overall heading into Friday night's game, the Minutemen came out like champions by starting the game with a bold on-side kickoff in an attempt to take the first possession away from Warsaw.
