REDSKINS MEET W. WYOMING TOMMORROW
Redskins Outplay Tunkhannock
In Postponed Game On Monday
Dallas Township unleashed a
crushing ground offensive to topple
Tunkhannock 26-0 Monday after-
noon at Dallas Township. This un-
usual date was caused by postpone-
ment of Saturday’s tilt due to in-
clement weather. Coach Bob
Thomas’ Redskins added to a 7-0
halftime advantage to stun the
Tunks into submission with a series
of quick opening line plays which
ate up yardage in large chunks.
Bob Bellas and Roy Tryon, a pair
of fast-stepping hard-charging half-
backs, were outstanding as they
varied end sweeps with off tackle
slants in a one two punch which
kept Tunkhannock groggy through-
out the game. Although Bellas and
Tryon were the feature attraction,
the supporting cast was outstanding
in its own right. The defensive
work of the Redskin line was tre-
mendous. However the plaudits
must be reserved for the fine all
“round protection given the Red-
skin runners whenever they hit the
Tunk line. The Redskin line open-
ed some king sized holes to allow
the backfield of Tryon, Bellas, Har-
ris and Eckert to romp at will in
the Tunk secondary while the
downfield blocking time and again
allowed the runner to continue for
extra yardage.
Notable absentee in the Tunk-
hannock lineup was Ozzie Hudock.
His absence was definitely felt as
his power plunges and accurate
passing are the mainstays of the
Tunkhannock attack. Besides the
scoring done by the Redskins, they
tallied three additional times only
to have the touchdowns called back
by penalties. Don Eckert scored
his first TD of the season only to
have it nullified. However on the
next play, Bellas broke through to
score. Tunkhannock’s main scor-
ing threat was also nullified by a
penalty. The Tunks had the pig-
skin on the Dallas six-inch line
when a 15-yard clipping penalty
pushed them back. A pass inter-
ception by Bob Harris put the end
to another scoring threat.

Redskins And
West Wyoming
Meet Tomorrow
Westmoreland And
Lehman Will Travel
To Distant Fields
Dallas Township has its last home
game of the season: Saturday with
West Wyoming at 2:00 on Dallas
Township Memorial Field. Both
Lehman and Westmoreland are
away against some very tough op-
position. Westmoreland meets Wy-
oming in its final Luzerne County
Conference tilt. Lehman visits
Wilkes-Barre Township in a game
which finds the Scotties decided
underdogs.
The Redskins under coach Bob
Thomas are favored to win their
fourth game of the year against a
winless West Wyoming eleven. The
Redskins all-star backfield of Bel-
las, Tryon, Harris and Eckert work-
ing behind a strong line should
be able to rip through West Wy-
oming at will. The Redskins will
be preparing for the all important
Thanksgiving Day game with West-
moreland and the West Wyoming
game should provide the right
touch to smooth out any kinks in
the Dallas offense.
The Mustangs from Westmore-
land will run up against a very
rugged Wyoming eleven. Wyom-
ing has defeated Wilkes-Barre
Township, West Pittston, Moosic,
Edwardsville, and Shickshinny, and
has been defeated only by Exeter
14-12 and Forty Fort 20-14. Rich-
ards and company will have to
be on their toes to garner the vic-
tory in this encounter.
Lehman will be in the unenviable
position of playing Wilkes-Barre
Township which has already won
five games in the tough Luzerne
County Conference. The Scotties,
in the throes of their worst season
in some time, will be hard put even
to. score against the larger Wilkes-
Barre Township lads.

Mustangs’ Fighting Spirit Brought
Victory When Defeat Seemed Certain
A pass interception by Glenn
Carey with only seconds left to play
and with Shickshinny on the West-
moreland three-yard line finally
pulled the contest out of the fire
for the underdog Westmoreland
eleven and gave them a. well de-
served victory.
A bitter cold Saturday afternoon
and a wet gridiron held down the
number of spectators but little af-
fected the caliber of play as West-
moreland downed Shickshinny 21-
18 to move up another notch in
Luzerne Conference standings.
The game was to have been
played at Shickshinny but wet
grounds forced it to be moved to
the Trucksville gridiron.
Behind during the entire game,
Westmoreland pushed across a score
in the final period and then staved
off the Shickshinny threats to bring
home the victory in an electrifying
finish. Ed Carey scored two touch-
Trophies For Shupp,
Rustin, and Sickler
George Shupp, president and
business manager of the East Dal-
las Baseball Club, was presented
with a baseball trophy Thursday
night at the Bi-County League
banquet in Beaumont in - recogni- |’
tion of having done the most for
his team and for the League.
George Gay, Tunkhannock, in
making the presentation and award,
ended his remarks by saying:
“Keep an eye on George. He's
presidential timber for next year.”
Harry Sickler and Arch Austin
also were given awards, Sickler for
management of the winning team,
Orange, and Austin for the runner-
up, Beamount.
Doug Carter, president of Sus-
quehanna-Wyoming County League
was a guest.
Herman Kern was Master of

downs and Bernie Sherin one in
the Mustangs’ fight against the
clock.
Jack Richards scored two of the
extra points and Ed Carey one as
the Mustangs elected to make their
attempts on the ground rather than
through place kicking. This move
proved to be the smartest of the
game as the Mustangs scored all
three times on the extra points
and Shickshinny failed to make
good any conversions. Richards
was the outstanding offensive play-
er as he passed to Sherin directly
for one score and set up the others
with amazingly accurate passing of
a wet, slippery ball. Jim Dolhon
with his plunges and Ed Carey with
his end sweeps kept the Shick-
shinny defense upset and set’ up
Richard’s aerial forays.
Shickshinny shook loose its
backs for three touchdowns from
a well handled T formation. Quart-
erback Buzzy Bach mixed a variety
of plays which had the. Mustangs
guessing for a good part of the
time. Defensive play by Purvin,
Greener, Ed Carey and Glen Carey
helped the Mustangs stave off the
Shickshinny threats. Carey’s inter-
ception was the top defensive play,
but an interception by Purvin in
the third quarter stalled another
Shickshinny goalward drive. Tony
Greener recovered the Shickshinny
fumble in the last quarter which
set up the final Mustang touch-
down.
