Judgment Galls

[Thumb Up]To Larry Johnson, the Charlotte Hornets' rookie, for pledging $180,000 to the United Way of Central Carolinas, enabling the charity to avoid its first shortfall in 37 years.

[Thumb Down]To the Florida High School Activities Association, jar taking away two victories from the 7-1 Lake Brantley High football team because the school, in an act of kindness, let an emotionally handicapped student dress for two games. The student,-who was technically from another district, did not play.

[Thumb Down]To the New England Small College Athletic Conference, for making its members play only conference teams beginning in 1992, ending the 102-year football rivalry between league member Hamilton and Union, and the 98-year one between the NESCAC's Middlebury and Norwich.
