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

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.
TAKE-OUTS \He plays for Huston Universi-
ty, and will hope to do some
KE 9-5950 punt-running-back Saturday at
Stereo Denny Stadium, wherein the
Cougars will engage the Crim-
Color-TV son Tide in the big action of
Ba <i ee a ~<a the week in these parts.

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.”

Seniors Score
Ehret, Ellsworth, Landis, Lettie
Tally As Lake-Lehman Wins 32-13
Cowboys’ Atherholt Stars In Defeat,
Returns Kick-off 100
Lake-Lehman gridders closed the
season on a winning note with ‘an
impressive 32-13 win over West
Wyoming on the Lehman gridiron.
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.
In running up the total of 32
points, coach Eddie Edwards got
his entire squad into the game.
The thirteen seniors, wearing
the black and gold uniforms of the
Knights for the final time, were
linemen Jack Sorber, Alan Landis,
William Ehret, David Dershimer,
