Page 18 On “Sunday bicycle riders from all over the nation will tour through the Back Mountain area as part of the Gibbons Great One Hundred. Sunday’s running will be the third annual one hundred-mile bicycle tour, which is organized by the Wyoming Valley Bicycle Club and sponsored by Gibbons. The tour will start at 7:30 a.m. from Kirby Park. Registration will take place from 6:00 a.m. to 7:30. Anyone can enter the event by paying the entry fee, but minors must have their parents with them at registration to sign the necess- ary forms. The Great One Hundred re- presents a serious challenge to the bicycle enthusiast. The course is laid out across the hills and valleys of Northeastern Pennsylvania--mostly on secondary roads. If Sunday’s weather is bright, cool, and sunny, hundreds of local riders are expected to participate. Even in the event of rain, however, a number of die-hard cyclists will take off from the starting line at 7:30 with every intention of completing the event within the 13-hour time limit set by the organizers to avoid after-dark riding. Although 100 miles in 13 hours may sound fantastic to the novice, with the modern multi- speed bicycles that most of the participants will ride, the chall- enge is quite feasible. The good riders will average 20 mph over the course and would, therefore, likely finish in about six hours-- allowing for rest stops. Light refreshments, courtesy of MacDonald’s will be served at three scheduled rest stops to bolster the energy reserves of the long distance tourers. Since serious cycling and heavy eating don’t go together, refreshments will be limited to such things as oranges, raisins, and orangeade. Spectators are encouraged to choose strategic spots along the route to cheer the riders on their way. In the Dallas-Shaver- town area, the better riders may be expected to go through around 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Local police and civil defense volun- teers will be on hand to control traffic at some of the more hazardous intersections, like the Overbrook Road-Pioneer Avenue crossing. “Sag Wagons” will sweep the course behind the riders to pick up the ‘breakdowns’ and the incapacitated, and to insure that no riders are left out after dark. All riders who have not completed the course by 8:30 p.m. will be picked up. Those successfully complet- ing the 100-mile tour will receive awards in the form of on their jackets. Anyone inter- ested in getting further in- formation about the event should call Jack Young, 474- 5695, or Leonard Lukas, 288- 2900. The finest cars in the country will start arriving next week at Pocono International Raceway in preparation for the third running of the Schaefer 500, July 1. Raceway officals expect a total of 39 entries to be on hand for the upcoming week of quali- fications and practice beginning June 20. Upon registering June 19, all contestants must undergo in- spection by United States Auto Club officials. Inspection will be crucial this year, as all cars must conform to the new rule changes set by USAC following the Indianapolis 500. All cars which have passed first inspection will be allowed to practice on the track June 20- 22. With only three days slated for practice, there should be . plenty of action each day for all fans attending. Practice sess- ions are set for 9 to 6 daily. The full weekend of qualifica- tions begins June 23 with open practice at 9 a.m. Following track inspection at 10:45 a.m., time trials will begin. Cars will be allowed on the track accord- ing to the order drawn at the drivers’ meeting the previous night. When qualifications recess Saturday night, the day’s fastest qualifier will be awarded the coveted pole posi- tion for the start of the Schaefer 500. Sunday will be the second day of qualifications with practice from 9 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., and time trials from noon to 6 p.m. Complimentary time trial tickets are available from many area Sunoco dealers. On June 27, carburetion tests will be conducted from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Pit practice will be from 9 am. to 11 a.m., and again from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. that day.

Mark Engler, losing pitcher, figured in the winning team’s high score when the Shavertown pitchers gave up 20 walks. Gary Zumchak, with assist- ance from M. Shaver, picked up his third win of the season. Zumchak struck out six and walked one. In the final game of the first half, the Westmoreland squad defeated the Lehman Jackson “B’’ nine 13-2. Again, J. Supul- ski starred at the plate, hitting out a two run double and a grand slam home run. Paul Moran and Steve Skammer also knocked out hits for the West- moreland team to figure in the scoring. G. Zumchak fanned five of the Shavertown teeners to pick up his fourth win of the season. Despite the fact that they won their final two games, the West- moreland team finished the first half in second place, one game behind the first place East Dallas nine. East Dallas, who suffered last season, came on this year to win nine of their ten games in the first half to cop honors.
