¥ { | { DALLAS, PENNSYLVANIA % ~ a SHAVERTOWN AND ALDERSON TO TANGLE IN By JIM Harris and Searfoss Star In Victory With the little men, Bob Harris and Dick Searfoss providing the spark and scoring punch Alderson went on to down St. Therese’s in the semi-finals of the play-offs by a 60-49 score. Probably the smallest mighty mite of the league Bob Har- ris played probably the best game of his career in the Church League as he tossed in many shots on drive- ins that seemed almost impossible along with intercepting many of the Saints’ passes and turned them into fast-break scoring plays. Harris fin- ished the game with 21 points, while his back-court play-maker Dick Searfoss hung up a total of 14. The 6’9” Dave Shales was held in check until the fourth period when he dropped in three of his five goals to finish with 11 points. Don Hinkle was really tied up all night and failed to hit on many of his shots and finished with only five points, far below his average. Lohman and Bolton were responsible for holding these two big guns in check but it turned out that the little men can | Baur | also apply the backbreakers. led the ‘losers with 20 to continue’ his torrid scoring in the past few games.

It is my feeling that the Dallas team brought a lot of honors to Their play in the North League was good, and will be remembered by their op- ponents for some time to come. In winning the Class ‘A championship at Bloomsburg the team brought additional glory to themselves and the community. Saturday night at Bloomsburg must have been Dallas night. All of the Back Mountain was there. Wherever you looked there was . | column: Sportslight Smith Boys Elected Basketball Captains Punch and Keith Smith, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Smith, former Huntsville residents, now of East Woodstock, IConn., were elected cap- tains of their respective school basketball teams recently. Punch plays guard at Pomfret and Keith is on the Rectory elemen- tary team. Keith is also football captain at Rectory. Both boys are football lettermen and baseball players. some one you knew. There is noth- ing like a Dallas fan, and how they whooped it up when the second half got under way. A party had been arranged at the Zephyer Diner after the game. One of ‘the parents brought two huge cakes for the team and cheer leaders. Everyone was happy, and Jim Martin was one of the happiest. The present team will go down in history as one of the finest aggre- gations this area has ever produced. My hope is that our teams will always be good enough to be invited to the Bloomsburg tournament. The environment at the College is good for the boys and for the fans who follow the team. Some time ago we said in this if Dartmouth and Temple ever meet in basketball Temple will give the Green a clobbering. The two met Saturday night in: the NCAA play-offs, and Doggie Julian’s boys made a respectable showing and were defeated by 19 points. That isn’t exactly a clobbering. An interesting note on the tour- nament was the selection of Guy Rogers, Temple's negro player, as the most valuable player. This, mind you, all out of Charlotte, N. C. Rogers played under terrific pressure, and at the outset was lustily booed, probably due to the game being played in the South. At the conclusion of the evening’s play he was showered with cheers for his performance as player and gentleman. More than 12,000 fans were packed into the hall for this game and many left with the thoughts of this young®man in mind. It proved to many hat black and white can play in a game together and the color doesn’t rub off. They are just plain Americans indulging in their favorite sport. If the North- ern politicians would keep their hands off the South, the country would be better off. It is always strange that the politicians who shout the loudest are the very ones ‘that can’t control their own baili- wicks. Dartmouth has been in the NCAA play-offs five times, which is some- what of a record for an Eastern team. ’ Baseball is in the news. It is my understanding that condidates for Dallas High team will be called out as soon asthe weather permits. Genial George is bemoaning the lack of material. It really touches my heart. “Our regular savings account at the Miners National Bank now amounts to umpteen thousand dollars and three cents!” Member: F.D.I1.C.
