NIA DALLAS, PENN SYLVANIA Lopasky Rated i ‘Big Noise” In Top Football Competition The following reprints from two! issues of the Birmingham Daily News, concerning former Lake-Leh- man football star Joe Lopasky speak for themselves. They were sent to the Dallas Post by Mrs. Edward Cob- leigh, former resident of Outlet. The Cobleigh’s son Delbert is a third year engineering student at Missis- sippi State, plays trumpet in ‘their famous band, and occasionally scans the southern papers for columnist’s opinions on Houston University star and old neighbor Lopasky. “—The big noise But The Big noise has to be Lopa- sky, who very likely is one of the top running backs in the country and fellow they might be talking about for All-America if Houston | hadn’t lost five in ‘a row. He’s from Lehman, Pa., close by Pittston which sent Charley JED EE ER <i <i <I <<< <a BAR LINK’S GRILLE HARVEYS LAKE ® HARD SHELLS ® JUMBO SHRIMP ® CLAMS Try our Famous Ham Sandwich from the NEW | SMORGA-BAR 7 DRAFT BEERS 3 if CE GE ED «CE «i «GID ES EP i > > > > <> <> <> <> <I << << <I <i <I <a <<a, pe <i <u <i aa’ | Trippi to Georgia and Lopasky almost wound up being a Bull- dog. (Miss. State Univ.) Hal Lahar, then coach at Huston, talked him away at the last minute. There was never any question about Joe going to West Virginia, where his brother Bill had played before going on to the San Francisco Forty- Niners. Bill had been a star back at Leh- man. West Virginia made him into a lineman. Pop wanted to make sure he saw son Joseph runing with the football, not restricted to blocking and tackling people. Joe may be the first Penn- sylvanian who ever made it big in Texas. Pennsylvanians go to Kentucky, to Miami, to Georgia and such places when they leave home for college football. Lopa- sky almost didn’t stay last year. Practice had started. It was 100 in the shade, and the Texas bumidity had the sophomore Lopasky low in mind. But he stuck around, and he’s a threat to Alabama, and Alabama had best not forget it. At 5-10 and 205, Lopasky is a powerful runner with great balance and elusiveness to boot. He had carried for 207 yards on 59 runhing plays this season, and he runs kickoff’s back like that punt, 296 yards on 11 of them. Houston | has provided him ample opportunity. Up to now, Houston has received a lot.” and then — October 23: “It is ' possible you didn’t know that opportunity is at hand for your eyes to look upon the football play- er with the most phenomenal punt return average’ in the history of punt returning. Know it now. His mame is Joe Lopasky.

The tourney is open to both men and women and is for the' benefit of 1964 State Tournament Fund. The State Tournament is to be held in Wilkes- Barre ‘this year. The Automatic Strike Tourney will be held at Crown Imperial Lanes, Sundays, November 24 and December 1; also at Kingston Lanes Fridays, November 24 and 29 and Sundays, November 24 and Decem- ber 1. The fee is 3.00; there will be separate prizes for men and Industrial League A new league was formed in Sep- tember but thas been unheard of until now. It consists of ten teams: Stanton TV, Harveys Lake A. L, Mushals Construction, Kern's, Park- er Fuel, A & P, Automatic Cigarette, Gordon’s Insurance, Adams Market and L.A.D.s. The league rolls off every Wednesday night at 9. I have only reports from eight teams this week. Top scorer was Al Wendall with 215 (540) for Stanton’s. B. Hoblak hit 200 for Gordon's, P. Schalm had 210 for Automatic, E. Espen hit 219 for Harveys Lake. Hitting 190’s were Stuka, G. Thomas, Alex- ander, Jordan, R. ‘Bonomo, Briggs, Karulawski. Kern’s rolled 3164 total pins, in- cluding handicap. Lopasky’s average, to end the suspense, is 82 yards per punt haul- ed back, The catch is, they've given the boy only one to haul. Lopasky caught that punt’ the night Houston played Auburn, op- ening its season. The Tigers slashed at him, fought to get him, fell over themselves in eagerness, and joe just kept running and running and running, all the way to the end zone from his own 18. Now it happens that Houston uses a double safety, as some do, but not Alabama. Lopasky stands deep on one side for pnts, somebody else on the ot- her side. Ever since the night of Septem- ber, all punts have gone to that somebody on the other side. No one has kicked one close to Joe Lopas- ky like Jon Kilgore did, There is a degree of frustration here, perhaps, but it sure doesn’t hurt the old average which stands, as I said, at 82 per return, and beat that, if you can.” reprinted from Birmingmam News CROWN IMPERIAL LANES BOWLING NEWS Let’s hear more from this league!

It was the final game for thirteen of the seniors and four of them, Bill Ehret, Ken Ellsworth, Alan Landis and Larry Lettie provided the scoring punch in rolling up the highest score of the season. Landis led the scoring parade with two touchdowns, the first as he blocked a Cowboy punt and raced into the endzone, and the second on a Lettie pass in the fina] period. Ellsworth, besides scoring a TD, booted two extra points, Lettie turned in a fine per- formance as he scored once and threw for two more scores. Lettie’s performance was over- shadowed, however, by West Wyo- ming’s fleet-footed halfback Bill Atherholt, who returned a Lake- | Lehman kick-off 100 yards for a score, besides turning in runs of | 60 and 50 yards, and capped the | afternoon by returning another | kick-off to the Lake-Lehman 20- | yard line to set up the final West ‘Wyoming score. The Knights held a slim 6-0 half- time lead, having moved 70 yards | in the first period for a score as | Lettie and Ehret combined on a 20- Yards, Other Fine Runs yard pass play. West Wyoming’s final score came on a 20-yard pass play from Roberts to Schultz following Ather- holt’s second brilliant kick-off re- turn.
