Redskins Lose
To W. Wyoming
Harris Hurt Early
In First Quarter
Dallas Township, in what was
probably its worst game of the
season, bowed to a weak West
Wyoming team 13-7 Saturday on
the Dallas Township field. The Red-
skins, picked to win by better than
two touchdowns, outplayed West
Wyoming in every department but
the scoring,
After a scoreless first half, West
Wyoming unleashed a third period
passing attack which caught the
Redskin defense napping. This sur-
prise flurry netted West Wyoming
thirteen points which was enough
for the victory. The last quarter
saw Dallas Township roll up tre-
mendous yardage but the Redskins
could tally but once and so went
down to defeat.
The loss of Bob Harris, sturdy
essential quarterback in the Red-
skin attack, early in the first half
hurt the Redskins. Harris suffered
a bruised chest and may be out for
the remainder of the season.
Bob Bellas took up the slack and.
tore the West Wyoming line to
shreds with his slashing runs but
he could not account for enough
yardage to score more than one
touchdown. Roy Tryon also turned
in some nice runs but the Redskins
lacked the steam to reach paydirt.
The Redskins fresh from a 26-0
victory over Tunkhannock looked
nothing like the same team Satur-
day afternoon. The Redskins were
rudely jolted in what was supposed
to be a tune-up for the big Thanks-
giving Day contest.

Lehman Loses
Another Game
Ends Season Tomorrow
Against Seminary J Vs
Lehman traveled to Wilkes-Barre
Township Saturday afternoon and
bowed to the stronger Georgetown
eleven 24-13. Even though de-
feated the Scotties have every
reason to be proud of the game.
Lehman was strictly an under-
dog, conceded a slim chance to
even score against the five times
triumphant Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship.
Coach Tony Marchakitus’ eleven
fought a game battle and gave the
favored Maroon and Grey a bit of
a scare.
The Scotties will finish their
worst season in years tomorrow
against the Wyoming Seminary
J V's,
Havoc wrought by graduation
turned last (year’s championship
eleven to a valiant but wunder-
manned team this season. Lehman
has turned in but one victory this
season, a 12-0 win over Factory-
ville.
However, the Scotties played
some pretty close games in which
the opponents considered them-
selves lucky to come off the field
on the long end of the score. Leh-
man’s 7-6 loss to Avoca comes
under the heading of the Scotties’
best played contest. A 19-14 loss
to Dallas Township and a 13-7 loss
to Moosic were two games in which
the Scotties almost made the
grade.

starts December 1 and finishes
March 8. It was also agreed to ob-
tain two referees for each game.
