AULD LANG SYNE
This is the time of year when sports fans look
back at the old year and measure its impact on his-
tory. What took place in 1969 that’s worth remem-
bering? The answer to that question can be given in
many ways with each fan singling out the events
that made the biggest impression on him.
If you're an alumnus of Penn State you're happy
that the Nittany Lions of Joe Paterno went through
another unbeaten season to rack up the longest win-
ning streak now in existence among the major col-
leges.
If you're a Valley View Cougar follower you’ll
remember vividly the collapse of your team in the
Eastern Conference championship game when the
Red Tornadoes of Mt. Carmel led by Gary Diminick,
who set a new state scoring record, all but ran your :
club off the field.
Followers of Wyoming Valley West will brag
about their perfect record club and refute with angry
voices the claim that the team played a weak sched-
ule in the Wyoming Valley Conference.
Abington Heights followers would like to forget
the first and last games of the campaign when they
lost to Dunmore and Tunkhannock respectively. The
loss to the Tigers in the traditional Turkey Day game
really hurt.
And Lackawanna Trail’s Suburban Conference
kings will long remember the title they won behind
their great back George Hudak—everybody’s choice
as one of the hardest hitting runners in the game.
They’ll also recall the few points that sc parated them
from representing the Northern Division of the East-
ern Conference in the title tilt with Mt. Carmel.
In basketball, the Trojans of Nanticoke Area will
never forget the game in the state’s capital when,
leading by enough points at halftime to practically
assure a place in the championship game, they fell
victim to some loose play of their own and seme
questionable officiating that had followers of the
team complaining well into the summer months.
West Scranton surprised in the Lackawanna
League as Dan Donovan built a powerhouse that
promises to run off with the title again this season.
The Bucks of Dunmore with the fabulous Richie Mur-
ray also provided some great basketball.
Abington Heights, of course, sneaked into the
PIAA Class A playoffs and Stan Majaika’s team that
finished second in its own league almost made a joke
out of the PIAA playoff system by staging a fantastic
showing in the Eastern semifinals in Harrisburg.
Ironically enough the Comets couldn’t handle the
miracle team of the year—Elk Lake, a Class C entry
in their own loop. As events later proved Mike (Red)
Wallace had id" real champion as his own son, Jim,
led the Lakers to the Class C PIAA title. It was a
great year for followers of the team. One of those
wonderful years that few schools experience.
On the pro front, the Wilkes-Barre Barons made
a shambles of the Eastern League and Art Pachter
dropped another sizeable sum as his Miners failed to
attract enough customers to the Scranton CYC to
meet expenses. But Art’s game. He's trying again,
and again the fans are conspicuous by their absence.
Collegiately, the University of Scranton grabbed
the headlines for the first time in many a year. Gene
(The Machine) Mumford was the big reason Nat
Volpe’s crew went through another unbeaten season
at home and finished in first place in the college di-
vision of the Middle Atlantic Conference. But the
current team, reputed to be one of the best in the
history of the school, has already been beaten at the
‘Long Center for the first time since that facility
. opened.
Boxing was dominated by a kid from Dalton
named Bobby Phillips. For a while it appeared the
erstwhile Clarks Summit High football great staged
better fights with his manager, Lippy Breidbart,
than with his foes. But at year’s end he recorded the
most important win of his young career with a repeat
win over Jerseyite Johnny Gillio. Phillips picked up
his biggest purse but the promoters lost a bundle as
the fans apparently lost faith in the fight game for
the umpteenth time.
The horse racing programs at Pocono Downs
caused little excitement. The harness racers suf-
fered through one of their worse seasons at the
mutuel windows with everyone having his own rea-
son for the sudden decline. The thoroughbreds made
their debut under the banner of Shamrock Racing
Association and averaged less per night than the
standardbreds. Apparently there’s nothing but
trouble ahead for the Downs where the poorest pub-
lic relations program in memory has really hurt.
Baseball, outside of a few amateur teams still
in operation showed no signs of coming back to life.
An ill advised attempt to revive even a little interest
in the return of the pro sport to the area failed. Fans
traveled to New York to watch the amazin’ Mets and
hapless Yankees and to Philadelphia for a look at
Richie Allen, baseball’s bad boy of 1969.
Perhaps one of the bright notes of the year was
the continuing success of the Abington Heights Cross
Country team. Never have the harriers received so
much publicity or accomplished so much for a school
or a community.
And perhaps coach Jay Soltis’ thinclads best
represent what makes the world of sports so wonder-
ful. The kids who came under his tutelage showed
their versatility. They were not only dedicated
athletes but representative youngsters who gave
every indication they're more than qualified to take
over leadership of this great nation in a few more
years.
If I had to point to a single sport that best exem-
plified the entire competitive establishment, my
‘finger would be aimed at kids like Glenn McLaughlin,
Joe Mooney, Kim Baxter and the other members of
a lightly-regarded sport for making a contribution
that makes it increasingly clear that tomorrow’s
leaders are nurtured in the cradle of competitive
sports.
