Bizarre is a better description. What else could you call the startling spectacle of California's Kevin Moen charging through the jubilant Stanford band, preparing to trumpet victory, to give Cal an incredible 25-20 victory in the final seconds.

And unbelievable is the only way to describe Cal's dizzying five laterals that produced confusion among the 75,000 fans at Memorial Stadium until the touchdown was verified. ry- The stunning end of the game had players, coaches, fans and members of both bands surging onto the field. It was a surreal example of what is theoretically passible, but almost never happeas. Said Cal linebacker Ron Rivera: "It's an act of God." After the game, Bear backers went wild. Berkeley streets were full of crazy drivers and beer caas.

The celebrations went on for hours in fraternity and sorority houses, dormitories and bars.

Republicans currently head four committees and hold the vice chairs of all committees headed by Democrats. Democrats have 48 seats in the Assembly; Republicans have 32.

The balance in the last session was 49 Democrats, 31 Republicaas. Party politics aside, Assembly Speaker Willie Brown, D-San Francisco, plans several changes in committee assignments that could herald important shifts in state policy. For example, Assemblyman Jim Costa, D-Fresno, who represents a San Joaquin Valley constituency that wants more North State water, is expected to become chairman of the Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee. Costa opposed the Peripheral Canal but did so because of environmental restrictions that would limit the amount of water available from the north. The current chairman, Assemblyman Norman Waters, DPlymouth, was an arch-foe of the canal on the ground of protecting North State water resources and the environment.

He is expected to take over the Agriculture Committee. Brown was asked last week whether Republicans would lose the committee leadership positions they won in 1981 as a reward for voting to elect him speaker instead of Assemblyman Howard Berman, D-Los Angeles.

The broadcast said an explosive charge touched off the fire in a seven-story building in Sidon, 25 miles south of Beirut. There were no reports of casualties.

By Gale Cook Examiner staff writer SACRAMENTO Assembly Democrats appear determined to begin the new legislative session by punishing the Republican minority for blocking lawmaker salary increases and taking reapportionment to a referendum.
