GREENVILLE, Maine, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- A Greenville, Maine, restaurant owner said he has canceled a free sandwich promotion for people who jump nude into Moosehead Lake.

Leigh Turner, owner of the Black Frog Restaurant, said he decided to cancel the free Skinny Dip sandwich promotion Thursday after the Board of Selectmen denied his application to renew his liquor license, the Bangor (Maine) Daily News reported Monday.

Turner said members of the board told him they'd be willing to grant his renewal request if he canceled the promotion because it encouraged nudity from patrons.

However, Town Manager John Simko said he contacted the selectmen after Turner called town officials to say the promotion had been discontinued, and the consensus among the officials was to let the ruling stand.

Turner, whose liquor license expires Nov. 9, has the right to appeal the ruling and request a public hearing, the newspaper said.

Cubs fans erect memorial outside stadium

CHICAGO, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- Chicago Cubs fans grieving the exit of their team from the playoffs have created a makeshift memorial outside Wrigley Field.

The Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday completed a three-game sweep of the Cubs in the National League Division Series. Since then, fans have been leaving candles, flowers, cans of Old Style beer and notes outside the stadium, the Chicago Sun-Times reported Monday.

"Dear Cubs," one note reads. "Thanks for nothing."

Workers at a nearby bar, Murphy's Bleachers, said they started the shrine as a way to deal with their grief over the disappointing end to a season in which the Cubs finished with the best regular season record in baseball.

"It was like a death," said bartender John Long. "The 2008 season died."

Flood could wash away baseball site record

LONDON, Ontario, Oct. 7 (UPI) -- A baseball field in Canada should lose the title of world's oldest existing playing field because it was altered after an 1883 flood, a U.S. historian contends.

A heritage official in Clinton, Mass., says while Labatt Park in the London, Ontario, has been used for baseball games since 1877, the ball field should lose its Guinness World Record designation due to the minor site alterations 125 years ago, the Windsor Star reported.

Historian A.J. Bastarache said after a flood in July 1883 destroyed parts of Labatt Park, which was christened Tecumseh Park, officials moved its home plate as part of a reconfiguration of the baseball diamond.

Bastarache argues such renovations should reset the field's inauguration date.

"If any old baseball diamond can qualify regardless of if it is still in its original location, then Civil War prison grounds could still qualify," he said. "The dispute would be endless."

The Star said if Guinness officials support Bastarache's claim, the record would belong to Fuller Field in Clinton, which was created in 1878 and has not undergone major alterations.

Student allegedly gave teachers hash cakes

LEEDS, England, Oct. 7 (UPI) -- A Leeds, England, high school student has been forced to switch schools after she allegedly gave two teaching assistants cakes laced with hashish.

The Wortley High School teaching assistants were hospitalized with dizziness and headaches in September after eating cakes brought in by the 15-year-old girl, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Doctors said the two school staffers had probably been drugged with a cannabis product. The teaching assistants were able to return to school the following day.

Officials said the student was suspended while they investigated the incident and the student has since been moved to a different school. The teaching assistants did not file a police complaint and the cakes were not tested for cannabis.

"The student in question has not been excluded from education, but is completing her studies at another school in Leeds," a Wortley High School spokesman said. "Wortley High School does not condone drugs and was disappointed this incident took place."
