It was a yellow rubber ball with rubber spikes, in case anyone gets any strange ideas about playing with maces. It had 2 red spikes on it, with the rest being yellow. The object of the game was to catch the ball by grabbing onto the red spike. -- Alan Steinberg {ucbvax}!decwrl!amdcad!cae780!alan "You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred..." -- Super Chicken
