Black Knight Chris Wargo (No. 15) was a little luckier on this play as he prepares to scamper
Dallas a 16-0 lead.
“We knew we had to stop Stu
Thomas and we did,” said Rybak.
“I was worried about Chris Wargo
taking over for Thomas, but our
kids stopped him as well. I’ve
watched Lake-Lehman play and
Wargo is good.
For the record
The Old Shoe is a football shoe
that was actually worn by Bruce
Griffiths, captain of the 1948-49
Kingston Township High School
football team.
The shoe, which rests on a red
mahogany base, was bronzed by
the Dallas Rotary Club in 1948
and originally awarded to. the
winner of the Dallas Township/
Kingston Township Thanksgiv-
ing Day game.
Following the merger of all
Back Mountain schools, the Old
Shoe Trophy remained in exist-
ence and is now presented
annually to the winner of the
Dallas-Lake-Lehman football
game.
Much thanks to a Shavertown
resident for bringing this to our
attention and setting the record
straight.
field last Saturday with one ambi-
«tion - to win the game and take
home the Old Shoe trophy, the
trophy that goes each year: to the
winner of the Dallas/Lake-Lehman
football game. Last season, the
Mountaineers and the Knights tied
and each school had possession of
the shoe for half of the year.
Not so this season as the Mountai-
neers ground out a 16-0 shutout over
the Lake-Lehman Knights on the
‘Dallas field.
“Mike Borton started the momen-
tum. He had five carries for 20
yards for our first touchdown in the
\ opening of the third quarter. His
* touchdown came less than six min-
utes into the quarter when he went
over tackle Fedro. Gerry Mihalick
was roughed up on his kick so we
had another chance for the extra
points. Bernie Walsh ran around the
right side for two points and we
| were in the lead 8-0,
while Lake-Lehman quarterback T. Willy
“Lake-Lehman has nothing to be
ashamed of. They are dedicated
players and a well-coached team.
We were lucky enough to win this
year and have the old shoe until
next game in 1984. That will be
another ball game.”
Knight Coach Mark Kirk said
after the game, “The Mountaineers
were much bigger than we
expected. Our defense played a
great game against Dallas during
the first half, but they took control
in the third quarter. They went
right at our line of scrimmage and
scored two touchdowns in eight min-
utes.

CLIPBOARD NOTES: When was
the last time a local team won a
football game by the score of 2-zip?
Coach Rybak confided to me
before the season he’d be delighted
with a break-even season. Mountai-
neers played up to their potential in
just about all of their contests.
Perhaps the worst kept secret in
America is the bowl bids. I couldn’t
polls, I’d take then all head-to-head
are always overrated.
While Georgia has a nice football
team, the Dawgs are 0-4-1 against
Pitt and Penn State. Panthers have
three wins and were tied by Georgia
David Morris and finally forced a
corner kick that was taken by Scott
Shafer who powered the ball to the
feet of Morris who tapped it in the
net.
Following a goal by Macungie,
United’s equalizer came when Mike
Richards skyrocketed a shot over
the heads of all players from the 22-
yard marker that had Macungie
goalkeeper completely beaten as it
dropped behind him into the net.
The winning goal came off the boot
of Jimmie Lister after a fine run
down the wing by Dale Root who
pushed the ball into the center for
Paul Melone to pass onto Lister.
The second game against Pocono
from Stroudsburg resulted in a 5-1

still lack credibility. Pitt bowed to
both Maryland and West Virginia,
yet is ranked ahead of both in UPI
last week.
Most of the good football teams
improve during the course of the
season. Miami is one such team. I’d
rate the Hurricanes second ahead of
Texas which has sort of declined in
recent weeks.
