Denmon) Straigis throws for 3 TD's in Dallas win By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Writer “It was a good win for us. Pittston is a better team than it looked at times. They're big and strong, but they made some mistakes and our kids played good ball Saturday,” said Coach Ted Jackson following his team’s 31-0 win over the *#Pittston Patriots at the Dallas field. “Our kids played well on both sides, offense and defense. They moved the ball well and they took advantage of Pittston's mistakes. I'm glad we have the week off, our kids need it and it will give us time to prepare for G.A.R. “They're scary. They have four or five quality kids and they are a great offensive team and they are good on defense. They have some fysreat skill people. They'll be tough.” The passing of Jay Straigis and’ the running of Barry Miller led the _ Mountaineers to their 31-0 score ed afternoon. Straigis, the Dallas quarterback, had an excellent day passing for 119 yards and hitting Tony Baldo, Miller and Jeremiah VanOrden for touchdowns. He also picked up yardage himselfon at least a dozen runs. In the beginning of the game the Mountaineers were stopped by the hard hitting of the Patriots but the Dallas coaches had made some adjustments among the players to help compensate for the hitters of the linebackers. Barry Miller scored the first Dallas touchdown when he ran 34 yards with blocking by Tony Nadzan. Chris Williams made the extra point and the Mountaineers led 7-0. The Patriots were unable to pick up a first down and on their next possession, Tony Baldo caught a perfect pass from Straigis and ran 52 yards for a touchdown. The kick for extra point failed and Dallas led 13-0. In the second quarter, Straigis and Miller carried the ball until - they got to the five yard line then Straigis hit Miller with a scoring pass for six. Straigis’ pass for two points was broken up by Pittston and the Dallas team took a 19-0 lead into the locker room at the half. Pittston’s attempt to rush for a score was stopped on fourth down and two by George Ladamus and Straigis, and Dallas then went down the field behind Miller's car- ries. Jeremiah VanOrden took a Straigis pass in for a score. The kick failed and Dallas moved ahead 25-0. With only seconds remaining Dallas scored their final touch- down whenWillie Whitesell inter- cepted a Patriot pass and took it over for his first score of his career from two yards out. The kick failed and the game ended 31-0.

They went through the mo- tions but that's all,” said Lake- Lehman Coach Rich Gorgone fol- lowing his team’s 14-6 upset loss to Meyers last Saturday. “Meyers came to play football and they did. Our kids were ahead and then they fumbled on the 30- yard line and that was costly.” Gorgone said if his kids had played like they did against Tunkhannock, it would have made it a close game. “We knew if it came down to the wire it would take a big play to win. Instead our kids made the fumble which cost us.” The Mohawks used a powerful rushing game to shut down the Knights with Jim Serafini acting as theworkhorse for the Mohawks. Neither team was able to score in the first half, but the Knights went on the board with six when Brian Hampel took a pass over into the end zone. John Baranowski had taken a Meyers punt and carried it back to the 47 yard line and eight plays later the Knights were near the 20 yard line when they were hit with a penalty which made it fourth down and six. Instead of going for a kick Gorgone hit Hampel with the scoring pass. The kick for extra point failed and the Knights settled for a 6-0 lead. Late in the third quarter, the Knights fumbled on the 30-yard line and Meyers recovered. It took ll Sluggish Knights lose to Meyers them only four plays before Seraf- ini charged into the end zone for six points and the score was tied ; at 6-6. QuarterbackJames Laury went in out to pass and just before he was taken down by Mike Strutko he was able to release the ball which Mohawk John Strobel caught for the two points conversion. : Later in the fourth quarter Laury took the ball in from the one yard line to give his Mohawks insurance. The Knights attempt to come back failed as they tried an aerial attack to take them in for a score. Next week they travel to Ha- nover. “We have our work cut out es for us,” Gorgone said. “Hanover is a tricky team and they have some good kids. We'll have to see what happens.” Lake-Lehman group to support running teams The recent announcement that the Lake-Lehman All-Sports Booster Club has disbanded has prompted parents and friends of the cross country and track and field teams to form a Lake-Lehman Open Running Club to support the school's cross country and field Radzinski on Ed Radzinski of Lehman, is a first-year member of the 1989 cross country team at Luzerne County Community College.

"GHP's the best thing there is for me right now. Other insurance plans don't cover office calls. With two children, it's $30 or $40 a trip. So basically I took GHP for the office calls. "But when James was born here at Tyler Hospital back in February and had to be Life Flighted to Geisinger Medical Center, I was real happy to have GHP. "I'm on maternity leave right now from P&G, so I'm paying GHP premiums myself. I just don't know what I'd do without it. "With two children, you never know what's going to happen. There are accidents all the time. You never plan on anything going wrong, but knowing GHP's there gives real peace of mind. "I don't know how to put a price tag on that." To find out about joining GHP, talk with your employer or call 1-800-GHP-4000.
