[Groff] Refer Question

My question is: When using Refer in endnotes mode ($LIST$), Is there any way to supress
the "references" string ?

The Background
---------------

I have an assignment that requires both endnotes and
an annotated (2-4 sentences) bibliography.  I am using Refer with a local database of
LocalInd (in my home directory).
Of course the endnotes work as specified:

.NH
Footnotes
.[
$LIST$
.]

Creating an annotated bibliography from the same Ind file is a simple enough task--

1) Use the %X and %Y fields for the annotation text in my LocalInd bibliographic database. (%X for the first
line and %Y for each additional line.
 
2) Use a sed script that strips out the %X and %Y lines and moves them to a separate paragraph.  This script creates a temporary Ind file "TempLocalInd."

3) Run TempInd through Refer to create the file TempLocalInd.rof


So the Annotated Bibliography section looks something like:

.NH
Annotated Bibliography
.PP
.so TempLocalInd.rof

This works perfectly except that Refer always includes the string "References" in its output.  My output text
looks like:


5. Annotated Bibliography

References

blah...blah...blah....


Is there any way to supress the "References" string ?
