(TU TIER TTT LE TITS AMET | 11] NLT) 694 Wyoming Ave., Kingston Phone 287-2118 RICHARDS by Lee L. Richards Interesting, exciting and an experience we’ll never forget. That's the only way to describe last Monday's Gator Bowl football game. We've been to our share of top sporting events, but Gator Bowl ranks with the best. | J While we picked Florida to win,\we sat in the press box and quietly cheered for the Terps of Maryland. Maybe it was our Yankee pride. “Y’all know that the Gators of Florida were ‘going to stomp all over the Terps.” That’s what most of the Florida media people be- lieved. They went so far to say there were better high school teams in the state than Maryland. They wanted a big-name team to play the Gators. Maryland wasn’t good enough. If you watched the game “y'all” saw the famed Florida wishbone get across the 50-yard stripe three times in 60 minutes, once on a 15-yard flag and twice when the game was out of reach. The home-staters got all the pre-game ink. When Maryland kicked off I really thought I was going to see a bunch of Clark Kents dash into a telephone booth and bounce back with a big red ‘‘S’”’ on their chests. All of the Gators were ‘All supers.” LeRoy Hughes, Mary- land’s rugged mini-end from Harrisburg, said to us after the game, ‘‘Hey, maybe they’ll invite us back next month to play the high school team that’s better than us.” During the afternoon leading up to the contest, we sat around with several of the coaches discussing everything in general. They kinda felt the players were ready. Bob Pellegrini, former Terp All-American and Philly Eagle linebacker, was really keyed up. He perfect attendance and one gold arro . Chris Leonard; wolf badge and one gold arrow. Michael Lundy, John Paijavis, and Frank Aritz, all received one gold arrow. Webelo leader Dick Montgomery presented the following awards. Ricky Metz; Aquanaut, Tim Smith; aquanaut, Kevin Booth; aquanaut, and craftsman. Tom Peeler; aquanaut, craftsman. Ralph Bentley; craftsman. Robert Montgomery; engineer. Tim Tamanini; traveler.

Distributed Locally LALKO & SENNETT 697 Hazle Street Wilkes-Barre 825-3675 just knew the Gators weren’t that good. Pelle is a good old boy that still helps the Terps recruit. He sat near us in the box and smiled all the way. When the Terps arrived back at the motel around 1:15 a.m. the fun really began. We were happy for Coach Jerry Claiborne and his staff, simply because we know the frustration and relentless work they've gone through to put the Maryland football pro- gram on a- par with the biggies. We [chatted with Coach Claiborne as the Terp fans saluted the victors. Coach Claiborne said, \ “We just did not turn the yall over. We had a good icking game. | “I knew our defense would have a key role with the way Florida played. Our team has a great deal of pride and we demon- strated it.” CLIPBOARD NOTES: You better believe the Cowboys are for real. Tom Reese is one of few people we know that predicted Cowboys would make it to the Super Bowl. We also had Steelers and Cowboys winning playoffs. Why? Because of team quick- ness...Time has run out for the vikings and Rams. They're too slow...Walter White, outstanding rookie tightend of Kansas City Chiefs, did some celebrat- ing with us after Mary- land’s 13-zip win over the Gators. He’s a terrific guy with bright future in pros...Wishbone teams lacked scoring punch again in bowls. Texas, Alalbama and Oklahoma won @ be- cause they perfected pass- ing the football...Michigan Coach Bob Schembechler proved to be complete jerk in Miami...Our bowl picks were 6-5 nothing to boast about...How about those Pitt Panthers? Again, team quickness was the key factor...We are con- ; vinced that Pitt and Mary- Robert Montgomery, Ted Price, and \Tom Peeler explained in detail the meaning of the Boy Scout badge, in doing so the boys received the Arrow of Light badge the highest award a lcub can earn. Mrs. Mrs. Edward Price Jr., Mrs. land can play with any team in the country...PSU proved this, too. State needs speedy back and more complete quarterback...Jimmy Cefalo is not the answer to State’s outside speed pro- blem...Gator coaches used Polaroid camera to film Terps’ offensive and defen- sive alignments. Pics cover 35-yard span. They couldn’t figure defense out...Biggest collapse was Ohio State. We've got to admit Woody was com- pletely out-coached. Yes out-coached. We wonder if the Bucks had a game plan plan??? Big Eight isn’t cracked up to what it’s supposed to be...Colorado Coach Bill Mallory said in November, “You can take six teams from Big 8 to bowls and we'll score six vic- tories”...That’s gotta be one of the laughs of the new year. Florida papers had great coverage on all the bowls and NFL playoffs... If Dallas'is to challenge Crestwood and Hanover for hoop title, they’ve got to start getting more consist- ent in shooting... Maryland Coach (gr Claiborne showed a heap of class after winning his first bowl game. Mary- land had stigma of not winning the ‘Big One”, too. People used to say that about the Cowboys. Remember??? by Wendy Smith The Junior Varsity Lake- Lehman Lady Knights met the Tigerettes of Benton for a scrimmage on Dec. 22, on the Knights’ court and won 38-4. Sophomore Marcia Janiczek gave the Knights a boost with her con- secutive shots during the first quarter. The increase was also supported by Louise Stryjewski with a total of eight points second highest scorer. The first quarter ended with a score of 10-2, Lake-Lehman. Freshman Cheryl Travis, high scorer with 12 points, displayed some unique defensive plays and a shotting streak beginning supplied with some tricky passes by her teammates bringing the score to 24-2, Lake-Lehman’s favor. Points continually added up with sophomore Jill McCarroll making some tough rebounds. This brought the third quarter to a close with a score g32- 2, led by the Knights. The fourth quarter was swept away by the Knights ending in a final score of 38- 4. Wyoming Valley Junior High School Wrestling League will open Thursday with six meets scheduled.

Next Pack meeting will be held Jaruary 16th at 7:30. There isalineinapop- ular song which reads, ‘‘he who is not busy being born, is busy dying.’’ This could well be paraphras- ed to read, ‘‘he who is’ not busy getting healthy, is busy getting sick.’ There is no standing still in this life. One ei- ther moves ahead or falls back. This is especially true as regards health. Health is a condition whi - ch must be actively main- tained. The idea that we can stay where we are, moving neither one way nor the other, is pure illusion, and this illusion has sent many unsuspect- ing soul to an early grave. Many people, not under - standing | this dynamic principle of health, make the mistake of equating health with the absence of symptoms. Symptoms are usually the last war- ning signals of a body long troubled by disturbed fun- ction. We have become condi - tioned to regard symptoms as nothing a pill can’t cure, or a laxative can’t fix. The truth is, illness and disease can exist under the surface for a very long time before you feel their symptoms. Cov- ering up these little ‘‘nor- mal’’ symptoms, such as headaches and indigestion, by taking pills, can only meke matters worse, for as you delay treating the CAUSE of your problems, your body continues down the road to inevitable bre- akdown. No matter how we fool ourselves, we cannot fool the intelligence which fas- hioned our bodies. When people have symptoms, they are sick. They get worse; and sometimes, if they’ fool themselves enough with drugs, they die premature and need- 9 less deaths. What they do not com- prehend, and reasonably so, for they have never been told, is that WE CAN BE SICK AND NOT BE AWARE OF IT. Infact, in the vast majority of cases, the person whode- velops symptoms has re- ally been sick for a very long time, all the while believing that he was per - fectly healthy! Unless we actively do something then to maintain our health, we run the risk of contribut- ing to our own sickness. This is where chirop- ractic is invaluable, as it alone among the health professions, offers the opportunity to maintain a valid standard of health. By restoring the body’s nervous system to opti- mum working capacity, chiropractic allows every part of the body the best process.
