Victory was sweet for the Scranton squad after last year’s 46-6 loss to the Back Mountain team. Mel Wynn caught a 63-yard pass from Brian Sickler in the opening minutes of the second half and went across the goal line for the Mountaineers’ only score in the game. There seemed to be a lack of team effort on the part of the Dallas squad at the home- coming game. The Mountain- eers were also without the services of senior quarterback Al Pisaneschi due to an injury he sustained in the game bet- ween Hanover and Dallas the previous week. The Cavaliers received the opening kickoff on their own 34 yard line and with superb passing by F. Wiercinski moved the ball down the field in the first five minutes of the opening period for their first touchdown. Wiercinski passed to Mifka, then to L. Pisony for a total of three plays, taking the ball to the 17 yard line. Then Mifka went across from the 17 to score. Pisony made the PAT and the Cavaliers were in front 7-0. The Mountaineers were unable to move the ball and were forced to punt. The Cavaliers began their drive OCTOBER 18, 1973 from the seven yard line with Mifka: and = D. McGlynn breaking the Dallas defense on every play for good ground gains. They were finally stopped on about the 40 yard line when Wynn intercepted a pass. Scranton Prep dominated the first half with their aerial at- tack with three of their men completing on seven passes. Wiercinski made good five of and McGlynn connected for a good one. In the second quarter, some fine defensive playing was shown by the Cavaliers’ J. team scored and the half ended with Prep on the long end of the 7-0 score. Folowing the score by Wynn, the kick for extra point went wide and the numbers on the board read 7-6. / Then the Cavaliers began their strong rushing game and in 13 plays, they marched down the field 57 yards for another touchdown, racking up four first downs. Mifka made the six points taking it across from the three yard line. The conversion point was good and the Cavaliers were ahead 14-6. From that point in the game, mistakes were the Mountain- eers’. the punt, their fumble was recovered by Prep’s G. Dough- erty and the Scranton eleven went from the Dallas 32 to score. It took them seven plays to the spot where McGlynn went over from the one yard line and with less than a minute remaining in the third period, Cavaliers were in front, 20-6. Dallas Area received the ball, but again did not move it and were forced to punt. With Prep again starting to move, Wynn saved the Mountaineers with his second interception of the after- noon. It was not for long, however, as 'S. Glasgow. recovered another Dallas fumble. Later in the fourth quarter, still another Mountain- eer fumble was recovered by M. Faherty. The Cavaliers took the ball to the Dallas 14 yard line where Wiercinski went across for the final score of the game. The try for extra point was wide and the Cavaliers were in command 26- 6. Deserving praise for his fine offensive playing was young sophomore Brian Sickler for the Mountaineers, who filled in for senior A. Pisaneschi. The young sophomore came through well under the circumstances. The Cavaliers added up 20 first downs to the Mountaineers’ 10 and had a total of 211 yards gained on the ground to 30 by Dallas Area. The Mountaineers put together 163 yards in the air to the Scranton squad’s 94. The Mountaineers will ‘meet Nanticoke at Dallas this Saturday. Game time is 2 p.m., with a special Booster Day program. National Fire Prevention Week was well observed in the Back Mountain. Local fire- companies held drills, inspected schools and buses, showed films on fire prevention and even took a fire engine to a Cub Scout meeting. The Trucksville Fire Com- pany inspected the Westmore- land and Trucksville Ele- mentary School buildings and held a mock fire drill. Exit time in Trucksville was 45 seconds and was 47 seconds in the West- moreland building. The fire in- spectors kept a student behind would be missed. In each case the teacher was aware that a student was missing and repor- ted it to the fire chief immed- iately. An exit was blocked to see what the student would do and they reacted tremendously according to the fire chief, Jack Stephenson. Present from Trucksville for the drills were Chief Stephen- son; first assistant, Hugh Gallagher; second assistant, Chuck Woolbert; Sheldon Williams, Tom Evans, Vic Spaciano, Harry Owens Jr., Jim Lorah.

Mr. Grossman pointed to the current rail crisis as. an example of the need for a regional approach to tran- sportation and that the coopera- tion of all regional groups was necessary to prevent a serious economic setback if rail aband- onments were allowed to happen at the scale which has been talked about in recent months. He also potted to the air transportation system as an example of a mode of trans- portation needing considerable improvement. He stated that a Regional Aviation Advisory Committee had been establish- ed as Northeastern Pennsyl- vania's input to a Statewide Airport Systems Planning Study. He noted that the committee is very active and will continue as an advisory group for at least the next two years as part of the statewide study. During the talk it was noted that a Regional Transportation Advisory Committee had been established under the chair- manship of Thomas Shelburne and that this committee has a very active role in monitoring the total transportation problem of the region. Mr. Grossman noted the efforts by a number of regional organizations to improve trans- portation facilities and urged a comprehensive approach to solving the current transporta- 3 / Very few can be trusted with an education. | —Guiney A Greenstreet News Co.
