Mr. Bradley said he was
elated at the number of young
le. who participated in the
“rby and was more than
pleased at the number of female
contenders. He stated that he
wished to compliment the Back
Mountain area for the interest
being shown in sports and rec-
tion. He added that there is a
ional trend for participation
by female contenders, but that
the Dallas area is way ahead of
others he has been associated
with in the past two years.
Mr. Bradley congratulated
the Kiwanis members and
members of the Dallas Borough
Recreation committee for their
initiative in promoting recre-
ational activities in the area. He
stated that this Derby will prob-
ably become a state-wide con-
test because of the enthusiasm
generated locally by these two
groups. Mr. Bradley also men-
tioned the participation of local
Little League personnel who
showed up with participants
in running the af-

Shafer says
hunt safely
The period through Jan. 16
has been disignated ‘Hunt
Safely in Pennsylvania Time”
by Gov. Raymond P. Shafer.
The state’s chief executive
pointed out, “Hunting in Penn-
sylvania offers outdoor recrea-
tion for more than one million
residents and 100,000 non-
residents demanding greater
opportunities for the wholesome
enjoyment of the common-
wealth’s abundant wildlife Te.
SOUrCes.? kus: turf "err
However, he called hunting
accidents “a careless and need-
less blemish on the record of a
fine sport.”
He asked each hunter to
‘‘exercise his hunting pri-
vileges by reviewing sate gun
handling procedures and ad-
hering to the rights of land-
owners.”
Noting that more than 72,000
students were certified in the
first year of the mandatory
hunter safety training program
administered by the Penn-
sylvania Game Commission,
the Governor encouraged ‘all
hunters and qualified in-
structors . . . to participate in
this worthwhile program.”
The Governor concluded by
urging “every hunter to become
better trained and informed on
safety precautions, and to do his
utmost toward reducing hunting
accidents in Pennsylvania.”

ed the West Side Area Vocation-

Lopasky by displaying good ball
control and superior passing by
Tony Stevens.
Scoring came early in the
first quarter with the first tally
going to the Knights when Bob
Engle ran 50 yards for a TD
with 9:51 left in the quarter.
Engle also ran for the two point
conversion.
Pay dirt was again hit with
3:25 left in the first period when
L-L tromped 61 yards in nine
plays. The last of this series was
a keeper by QB Tony Stevens
from 11 yards out worth six
points. The PAT by Adamchick
was good making the score 15-0.

What Charley Meck of
Sterling Avenue, Dallas,
described as “a thrill of a life
time”’ will wind up on the dinner
table this Christmas if Nancy
Eckert keeps her promise.
The “thrill” about which
Charley is still bubbling is a 14-
pound Canadian goose he shot a
week ago last Saturday up near
Mansfield. And the story he tells
about the kill is enough to cause
a catch in the throat of any affi-
cionado of the hunt;
It seems that Charley and
fellow hunters Chuck Boughton
and Dick Mills, both of Lehman,
were returning home from a
successful day of duck hunting
when they happened upon a
early small game
season open
The first major surge in
Pennsylvania hunting activity
started with the opening of the
early small game season Oct.
17.
Squirrel and grouse are the
small game species that are to
be hunted. Seasons on most of
the other small game species
open two weeks later.
Oct. 17 also marked the first
day of the woodcock season, the
last of the migratory bird
seasons to open this fall.
Hunters may take Woodcock
auntil-Dec.:19. Ww
Squirrels, which for years
have probably been the state’s
most underharvested small
game species, again seem to be
in good supply this year. Sports-
men are permitted to take six
squirrels daily, and may har-
vest 30 in a year.
The overall grouse picture,
hunter safety
class is Sat.
The final hunter safety in-
struction class sponsored by the
Dallas Office of the Pennsyl-
vania Game Commission will be
held Oct. 24 from 12 p.m. until 6
p.m., Game Protector Edward
R. Godsky has announced.
Mr. Godsky notes that as of
Sept. 1, 1969, no hunting license
has been issued in Pennsylvania
to any person under the age of
16 years unless he has presented
either evidence that he held a
hunting license in this or an-
other state in a prior year, or a
certificate showing that he has
successfully completed a course
of instruction in the safe hand-
ling of firearms and bow and
arrows.
With these new* regulations,
Mr. Gdosky states, it is impor-
tant that young hunters receive
appropriate certification. This
may be accomplished by at-
tending the six-hour course Oct.
24.
Persons interest in attending
the course may contact Mr.
Gdosky at 639-1849.

which had been at a cyclic low
for several years, showed pro-
mise of recovery last fall, and
birds for a time, showed a slight
upturn last year, and early indi-
cations are that the situation
looks even better this year.
Grouse hunters are permitted
two per day and ten per year.
Woodcock should again
provide exciting hunting in the
Keystone State this fall. There
are populations of local birds,
and the normal migration of
“timber-doodles should be in full
swing during the latter part of
the month.

geese
pond where a flock of geese,
lured to the water by four tame
geese, were bobbing around.
Such luck!
But the hunters’ excitement
was short-lived. Canadian geese
are noted for their excellent
eyesight and natural wariness
and these were obviously no
exception to the rule. They had
chosen ‘to alight on a pond
surrounded by 500 feet of knee-
high grass—with no trees or
hiding places closer to the water
to shield the men from the
geese’s vision.
After a careful study of the
situation, it was decided that
Chuck Boughton would circle
the pond and attempt to drive
the geese toward Dick and
Charley. After crawling 300
yards on his belly toward the
water’s edge, Chuck was finally
noticed by the tame geese who
promptly set to honking to warn
their wild cousins of the inter-
loper. Chuck jumped up, fired
at the geese, and watched in de-
light as they took off and flew
directly over the heads of
Charley and Dick. Both men’s
shots brought down geese.
Charley’s neighbors, Nancy
and Lee Eckert, have promised
to fix one of the geese—com-
plete with all the trimmings—
for Christmas dinner, and Dick
Mills plans to have a family
dinner as soon as his wife and
brand-new infant daughter get
home from the hospital.
It was a good week all the way
around.

yard line. The only Tech tally
came in this series of downs
when QB Krufka ran a keeper in
from the one yard line with 1:08
left in the first quarter.
. The beginning of the second
period was very slow until Bill
Lozo—with 7:44 left in the
quarter—displayed his running
ability at the goal line for the
Knights when he ran from seven
yards in for a TD. Minutes later
Bill Kern saw pay dirt for the
first time in the game when
Stevens completed a pass to
him from eight yards out.
Adamchick hit on the second of
his three PAT’s on this TD. This
tally brought the score to 28-6 at
the half.
The opening of the second half
found the Knights kicking off to
their visitors. On kick-off the
ball was carried to Tech’s 32. On
the first play of this series of
downs Knight Joe Mescalis
picked off a Krufka pass on the
42. Four plays later, pay dirt
was hit by another Stevens to
Kern pass from the 17. The third
Adamchick PAT was complete.
This was the last score of the
game, leaving the score at 35-6.
Credit should go to the fine of-
fensive blocking of Sieber,
Smith, Bonning, Mohen, and
others for the Knights. For the
Titans, fine defensive play
should be credited to Albert
Harrison who was doing a lot of
tackling against the Knights.
It is also appropriate to note
that Coach Curry’s second
team, both offensively and de-
fensively, were playing most of
the second half. Of these are
such potential starters as Mark
Bogdon, QB, and Joe Mescalis,
who picked up 35 yards for L-L.
Bill Lozo, fine Knight back who
led on running yardage, tried
_his had at QB for a few plays but
was relieved by Bogdon.
Rogers led the Titans by
accounting for 40 yards on three
complete passes.
This win sets the L-L record
at four and one in league com-
petition.
Wyoming Area will host the
Knights tomorrow, Oct. 23, at
their own stadium.
