A Greenstreet News Co. Publication True As my more faithful readers may recall, I predicted that last week would be the week of upsets in collegiate football. True Grid indicated that most prognosticators would be for- tunate to hit a .700 percentage for the difficult schedule. Well, True Grid was accurate as usual—major upsets abounded as Texas A&M beat Arkansas, Illinois whipped Northwestern, Iowa edged Wisconsin, Missi- ssippi surprised L.S.U., Michigan State trounced Purdue, Pitt came from behind over Syracuse and Vanderbilt beat Tulane. True Grid's log for this trying week—56 right and 24 wrong, for a .700 percentage, precisely -the percentage pre- dicted. This brings the season’s record to 409 right, 128 wrong and 7 games ended in ties—a 762 aviwage. The cOming weekend will not offer any relief. While the major powers will encounter fairly light opposition, there are an unusually high number of very evenly matched contests—es- pecially in the Big Ten, the Southwest Conference and the Ivy League. For those of you who wager modest amounts on football card—save your money this week! As in past weeks, 10 leading games will receive True Grid’s speciiggreview. The winners are listed \n italics. ..Alabama at Louisiana State: Bear Bryant claims this is the best Cian Tide squad he has fielded ‘to date, and their per- formance has supported that contention. With the loss of All- American Tommy Cassanova, L.S.U. has faltered in its last twe outings. The Tide will not be stemmed as it wins a tough one under the lights. ..Mississippi State at Auburn: As True Grid indicated, Auburn would come to life against Florida—they did with a zestful 40-7 win to remain undefeated. Miss. State gave Tennessee a good struggle but was trounced by Alabama 41-10. Auburn’s Tigers will be out to match ‘Bama’§®nargin. Baylor at Texas: For the first time in years most members of the Scuthwestern Conference realizfbat they have a chance against the hobbled Longhorns. Look for Texas to sharpen their blunted horns against the Bears before a home crowd. The eyes of Texas will watch as the Long- horns win big once again. Boston College at Syracuse: Obviously an upset is an- ticipated. After last week’s stunning fourth quarter loss to Pitt, the Orangemen will be in- tent on salvaging some pride from a disappointing season. Based on records and statistics, the Eggles are a better team. Howe®=r, feeling prevails. over reason and Syracuse receives the edge. Iowa at Michigan: The Hawk- eyesMvave been improving weekly under the tutelage of new coach Frank Lauterber and last week’s upset win over Wis- consin may mark the start of brighter days at Iowa. The third ranked Wolverines also are getting stronger, though, so postpone Iowa’s rebirth for at least one more week as they are soundly whipped by Michigan at Ann Arbor. : Iowa State at Nebraska: Iowa State has lost only to Colorado and Oklahoma while’ winning five ggmes, and most of you had the ®pportunity to watch Nebraska soundly defeat Colorado last Saturday. Iowa State is having its best season in years, but Nebraska is the de- fending national champion and remains number one. The Corn- huskers will beat Iowa State but not as impressively as Okla- homa did. Maryland at Penn State: The Nittany Lions cannot take the Terps too lightly: Although 2-6, the Terrapins have been in all of these contests against some formidable foes. After wrap- ping up the Lambert Trophy against West Virginia, the Lions will not be up for this one. Nevertheless, the power of the East should prevail while giving their excellent second units a chance to see plenty of action. Michigan State at Ohio State: The Spartans put it all together against Purdue last week in a 43-10 blitz. As True Grid predicted. Ohio State had to’ come from behind to edge Minnesota 14-12. The Buckeyes have already lost one this year in Columbus—they rarely lose two at home in one year. Ohio State will have to contain the Grid flashy Eric Allen—if they, do, they should win. Oklahoma at Missouri: With the loss of Dan Devine to Green Bay, Missouri’s football for- tunes have ebbed. The Tigers defense should provide the nation’s best offense with a field day; the potent Sooners should get about 5) points on the board against the rebuilding Tigers. With another impressive vic- tory, Oklahoma moves up closer to Nebraska for the nation’s top ranking. Notre Dame at Pittsburgh: The Irish defense continues to support their bankrupt offense. The Panthers scored an im- pressive upset over Syracuse last week, but inconsistency and errors have plagued Pitt so far. They cannot afford such luxuries against Notre Dame. The Irish defense does it again as the search for an effective offensive formula continues. Professional football con- tinues to unfold major upsets on a weekly basis. True Grid did see Miami upsetting Los Angeles but was surprised by Chicago’s defeat of Dallas, Atlanta’s victory over Cleveland, Philadelphia’s second straight win over Denver and Houston’s win over the faltering young Bengals. The record last week was seven right, four wrong and two ties. The season’s record to date stands at 48 right, 26 wrong and 4 ties for a .649 percentage. True Grid’s selections for the upcoming weekend are: Miami over Buffalo, Houston over New England, Kansas City over the New. York Jets, Atlanta over Cincinnati, Pittsburgh over Cleveland, Dallas over St. Louis, Chicago over Green Bay, San Francisco over Minnesota, San Diego over the New York Giants, Oakland over New Orleans, Detroit over Denver, Washington over Philadelphia, Baltimore over Los Angeles.

Subscribe To The Post Dallas surprised the Patriots of Pittston Area with a go-ahead touchdown with only 23 seconds remaining to win 29-23 at the losers’ stadium Saturday night. The Mountaineers led twice in the see-saw battle before Rob Goeringer put them ahead for good in the closing seconds. Neither team moved the pig- skin on their initial series but when Dallas got the ball follow- ing a Pittston punt on their own 46, they mounted their first scoring drive. The big play of the series came on an end run by quarterback Gary Arcuri for 28 yards which put the ball on the 11. Three plays later Charlie Griffin powered in for Dallas’ first score midway through the first period. Turnovers controlled the beginning of the second quarter as Bruce ‘‘Tex’’ Dadson cover- ed a loose ball for the Mountain- eers at the 46. Three plays later, Len Pesolini got the ball back for the Mountaineers at the 46. Three plays later, Len Pesolini got the ball back for the Patriots as he intercepted a Mountaineer pass. On the ensuing series Pittston began their first threatening drive as they managed their initial first down of the game. With the ball at the Mountaineer 12, quarterback Ray Musto chose to go to the air, but Gary Kostrobala killed the Patriot threat as he inter- cepted on the goal line and brought it out to the 22. Following a Mountaineer punt, Pittston regained the ball on the Dallas 47. Two big run- ning plays covered the distance with the first call going to Jim Cefalo for 22 yards and the next to Dave Bachkosky for 25 and the score. With the kick by Bob Pointon, Pittston area led 7-6. On the following kickoff Wayne Evans regained the lead THE DALLAS POST, NOV. 4, 1971 Mounts Surprise Patriots; Take Lead in Final Seconds for the Mounts as he scampered 85 yards for Dallas’ second score. After a key block by Gary Kostrobala near mid-field, Wayne sprinted the remaining distance untouched. A penalty moved the ball to the 1% for the PAT which went to Charlie Griffin who erashed in for 2 to account for the final points in the half. As in the first half, neither team could capitalize on their first series. On Pittston’s second possession, they moved the ball 60 yards in six plays with the scoring play coming on a pass from Musto to Peso- tini for 19 yards. Cefalo scored the two-point conversion after taking a pitch from quarterback Musto. As the final period started, the pace of the game quickened. The game, up to this point, had been relatively free of penal- ties, but following a run by Lou Spiccioli, tempers flared and resulted in the first of two un- sportsmanlike conduct penal- ties against Dallas and the ejection of Mountaineer Bob Considine from the game. Following the second 15 yard penalty, the Patriots had the ball on the Dallas 15. Four plays later Cefalo blasted off-tackle for one yard and the score to put Pittston in command tempor- arily, 23-14. On the next series the Mountaineers countered with an 8 play, 66 yard drive to bring Dallas within one, 22-23. The march was aided by two 15 yard Patriot penalties for pass inter- ference. Gary Arcuri accounted for 31 yards on three carries in- cluding the four-yard scoring run with 5:47 remaining. The two point conversion came on a pass from Arcuri to Rob Goer- inger. Two costly penalties ham- pered the Patriot offense and they were forced to punt with little more than three minutes remaining. : On the first play of the Dallas drive, Gary Arcuri completed a pass to flanker Bud McHale who turned the apparent 10 yard gain into a 53-yard gainer to give Dallas a first down on the 16. Charlie Griffin crashed: through the center of the Patriot line and cut to his right for 11 yards. Three consecutive carries by Rob Goeringer covered the remaining five yards to put Dallas ahead 28-23 with only 23 seconds remaining. The kick by Kostrobala ac- counted for the final point to give Dallas the 29-23 victory. Pittston’s desperate attempt to score was ended as Moun- taineer middle linebacker and defensive captain Roger Howell grabbed a Patriot pass and re- turned it to the 20. Time expired . with out the Mountaineers running another play. Cefalo was the game’s high rusher as he accounted for 109 yards in the Patriot’s losing effort. Griffin, the conferences’s third leading scorer with 74 points, tallied 89 yards on 20 carries and accounted for a touchdown and a two-point conversion. The 85-yard scoring kickoff return by Wayne Evans ties him for the longest kickoff return in the conference. Tex with nine individual stops, and a fumble recovery, Jim Wisnieski with nine stops and Roger Howell with seven individual hits and an inter- ception anchored the Mountain- eer defense. Next week will be Home- coming for Dallas as they host the Queensmen of ‘West Side . Central Catholic at 2 p.m. Bob Engle, Lehman No. 27, heads for a TD in last week’s contest at Hanover. Engle posted his 13th touchdown as the Knights went on record with three B Division victories. att Tony Stevens, No. 15, picks up yardage for Lake-Lehman in last week’s game with Hanover.

Knights Lead B Division; Bob Engle Leading Scorer by Tony Ferrara The Knights of Coach Ray- -mond Caucci rallied for 22 points in the second half to erase a seven Hawkeye seven point edge and control the game Friday night at Hanover Sta- dium. Senior Bob Engle scored two touchdowns in the game to make him the leading scorer of the Wyoming Valley Conference with 13 touchdowns, and four two-point conversions for a total of 86 points. Meyers’ Tony Sch- waub runs a close second with 85 points. The Hawkeyes, receiving the opening kickoff on their own 37- yard line, used Randy Carlos and Joe Long to get an early score. Carlos capped the 63- yard drive on a four-yard dive followed by a successful PAT by Shafer. The rest of the first half was merely a battle of punts, inter- rupted only once by a Tarutis pass intercepted by Knight de-. fender, Bill Kalish. Thus the Hawkeyes left the field at half- time with an encouraging 7-0 lead. The Knights, with a reputa- tion of being a second-half team, illustrated this chara- cteristic by exploding in the opening minutes of the second half. They drove the opening kickoff 54 yards in four plays. The fourth play was a dive by Engle from the two, followed by a keeper by QB Tony Stevens for the two point conversion, giving his team the edge 8-7. Just minutes later, as the Hawkeyes had possession of the ball, Tarutis went to the air. Knight defender Bill Lozo inter- cepted the hard-thrown pass and out-maneuvered his pur- suers to score on a 45-yard run. The PAT failed, and the ball game was now turned around with an important 14-7 Knights’ edge. The Hawkeyes, after re- ceiving the kickoff, threatened by moving the ball down to the L-L 23 on short runs by Carlos and Salsavage. Their con- fidence was downed however, when a loose ball was recovered by Bill Kalish. The Knights now threatened but failed to come through on a fourth-and-one play on the Hawks’ 31. This was the story for the rest of this quarter and most of the last. It was not until the last quarter that the scoring was finalized. The Knights received possession on a punt to the Hawks’ 33 yard line. It was Engle all the way as he carried seven times for the 33 yards and the three-yard TD run. Lozo was successful on his conver- sion run good for a 22-7 finish. The Knights strenghtened their lead in the B division standings, now boasting ‘a 3-0 record, while the Hawks remain 0-3 for the year in “B* ‘division'* *! tilts. Pilot Project Encourages Opening Hunting Lands The Pennsylvania Game Commission and private in- dustry have joined hands to launch a pilot project designed to make or keep more privately- owned land available for public hunting. The project, called the Forest Wildlife Cooperative Program, will be similar to the Game Commission’s Farm Game Cooperative Program, which has opened to sport hunting nearly two million acres of private agricultural land. Under the Forest Wildlife Program, the Game Com- mission will provide an ad- ditional degree of protection to large forested tracts. In return, owners will make the properties available to sportsmen. Certain roads into or across the tracts will be closed to public usage and posted with Juaser Game Commission signs. The responsiblity for enforcement of regulations governing the posted roads will rest with the Game Commission. In the past, some in- considerate hunters abused the privilege of using these roads, creating deep ruts in bad weather, thereby making them impassable, and otherwise damaging the property. Owners had to repair the damage at their own expense. Indiscriminate snowmobile operators would gain entry to private property, usually through such roads, and then speed along on the snow, damaging young seedlings and knocking the bark off trees. Littering became a problem almost impossible to control, with owners forced to spend large sums of money to clean up One of the entries in the annual dog show sponsored by Back Mountain Kennel Club Nov. 6 is this long-haired dachshund, shown with his handler, Ray Anderson, at a recent show in Berks County. Judge on that occasion was Mary Nelson Stevenson, left. Public Invited To View Film The concluding film in Wyoming Seminary’s current documentary series on recent world history will be held Nov. 10 in Pettebone-Dickson Student Center. A documentary com- bining highlights of preceding films in the series, ‘Farewell to Yesterday,” deals. with the synopsis of the history of the first 50 years of this century. Public is invited to see the film Wednesday at 8 p.m. in Pettebone-Dickson Student Center on Wyoming Seminary’s campus. the trash, garbage and other debris left by some irrespon- sible visitors. Additional damage was registered by owners of trail bikes, motor scooters, all- terrain vehicles, mini-bikes, motorcycles, etc. : Many property owners, although they would have preferred to keep their land open to sportsmen, were forced to post their tracts against all trespassing in order to protect themselves. Or, to offset damages, taxes, and increasing costs of providing free recreational uses, some were forced tolease hunting’rights on their lands to private groups or individuals, thereby closing the area to public usage. Owners of large tracts, sometimes maligned as profit- seeking inconsiderate of public needs, have for some time sought relief from often- overlooked depredations while attempting to meet publie demands for more ‘‘open space,” and the cooperative program grew out of a mutually recognized need for more protection, combined with multiple land use concepts. It is hoped that this new pilot project will improve sportsmen- landowner relationships in many forested areas of the state, particularly in the nor- thern tier counties, as the Farm Game Cooperative Program has done in the agricultural sections of the commonwealth. Only large, forested tracts will be included in the pilot project. The minimum size area involved will be at least 1,000 acres. : Already, nearly a half million acres have been enrolled in the pilot project under holdings of the following cooperators: Texas Gulf Sulphur Company, Hammermill Paper Company, Collins Pine Company, United Natural Gas and the Sylvania Corporation. rventually, if successful, the program could result in perhaps a million acres of land available for public hunting—land that otherwise might have been closed to the sportsman.
