[just another ref]

Everywhere I go, it seems, the problem of unsupervised kids running around, some very young, gets worse and worse. Tonight I'm lead standing just outside the endline. I am turned to my left, so the court is to my right. I have a whistle, start to raise my right hand to stop the clock for the violation, and whack a little girl right between the eyes. I never saw her, but if she was on my right side she must have been standing/walking pretty much right on the line. It hurt my knuckles, so I expect she might have a mark of some sort. I felt bad, of course, even though I really don't see it as my fault.
