Phillies Coach, Mike Ryan. But
DJ’s Ed Green, Ed Siaky and
Debbie Colton, were no match for
the veteran television team.
Sports directors, Howard Eskin,
Channel 29, Scott Palmer, Channel
6, and Larry Rosen, PRISM, were
coached and assisted by Phillies
coach Claude Osteen.
It was a timed competition, with
each team member having the
same amount of time to milk. Each
team had its own cow with all the
team members milking into the
same bucket. Pennsylvania State
Dairy Princess Pam Kindig was
the official umpire for the contest.
When the timed competition was
over, Pam weighed each pail, dec
laring the television team the win
ners with over seven pounds.
The radio team made a good
showing with four pounds of milk.
Howard Eskin, dressed in a tuxedo
for the competition, made a victory
speech for the television team. He
told the fans that it was an easy vic
tory, and credited the win to,
“practice, practice, practice.”
