Letters;
To animal or cat lovers;
I live at 683 W. Market
St., Marietta and have
been feeding stray cats this
past year. It has become
financially impossible for
me to feed them any more.
Two of them had 2 litters
of kittens each since
spring.
I wrote the mayor and he
kindly helped as much as
he could. He called the
Police and they called the
Humane Shelter —and they
picked up the ones they
could that were tame, but
the problem is about six of
them cannot be picked up
because they are wild,
including the mother cat
who now has kittens hidden
To—
All voters of the Donegal
School District, Republi-
cans, Democrats, and In-
dependents.
Election Day, Tuesday,
November 8th, you have a
very important choice to
decide—that of ‘‘School
Director.’
One candidate alone is
the outstanding,preferable
selection—‘‘Jeff’’ Hartzler
—a man we desperately
need.
He is a man of integrity,
qualified in every sense of
the word—morally, intel-
lectually, and ethically.
" Today, the moral fibre of
our country is at a breaking
point. Locally, on our own
School Board, we need a
morally concerned man
~ who upholds quality educa-
tion.
‘““Jeff’’ Hartzler is a
gentleman who is honest,
some place and they will be
wild.
After they picked up the
ones they could get 1 made
up my mind I have to stop
feeding the rest. But it is
so pitiful even though I
can’t pick them up, they
come sit on my porch and
look in my doors and
windows and it makes me
sick, literally, to ignore
them.
So, 1 thought maybe
someone who loves animals
or cats would be willing to
try to trap them. I have no
transportation myself, and I
just cannot afford to feed
them. :
~_ Sincerely,
Ruth L. Simmons
conservative, and holds the
interests of the tax-payers
in trust.
Party affiliation is a
‘“label’’ that should be
passe in this year’s crucial
School Board election.
One vote —ene man
—*‘“Jeff’’ Hartzler.
Be an individual ‘‘think-
er’’ and not a ‘‘prisoner”’
of the ‘‘party dictators.”
Thank you.
A life long Republivas,
Edith M. Charles
P.S. For the interest of the
voting area citizenry—
there are nine (9) men on
the Donegal School Board
and the entire nine (9) are
Republicans.
We need a representa-
tive body and now is the
time for a welcome change.
This, especially, for all
selective Republicans.
Underdogs at the top of the ladder;
Indians lead section, but experts think they’ll crumble next Friday
‘““This is the most
important game ever,’
says Indian coach Gayne
Deshler. He's talking about
next Friday’s home game
between the Donegal and
Lampeter-Strasburg foot;
ball teams.
Right now, Donegal is in
sole possession of first
place in Section 3 of the
Lancaster-Lebanon Football
League — but only by half
a game.
Two teams, Lebanon
Catholic and Lampeter-
Strasburg, are breathing
down the Indians’ necks,
and they both have very
warm breath.
L-S has lost only twice,
and one of those losses was
to undefeated Penn Manor,
which plays most of its
games in another section.
L-S is led by quarterback
Doug Smoot, who’s the
best passer and the best
runner in the league. (He
has carried the ball 70
yards farther than Donegal
Look out Marietta! Here come those
Witches, ghosts, and
goblins will be seen roam-
ing the streets of Marietta!
Yes, genuine spooks will
raise the hair of area
residents on Wednesday,
October 26th, starting at
7:30 PM when the 22nd

Riverview school into the

This parade could be the
biggest Jaycee Halloween
Parade ever!
Organizations and indi-
viduals are invited to take
part in costumes or floats.
Prizes will be awarded
following the parade, at the
Jaycee center.

star Pete Splain this year
— in one fewer games.
The rest of the backfield
is almost as formidible. In
spite of their diminutive
size (Smoot weighs about
145 Ibs., the two halfbacks
about 135 each), they are
impressive ground-gainers.
Their speed is legendary.
In short, most football
experts think L-S is going
to win.
(One well-known expert
has observed that Solanco,
the only team which beat
the Indians this year, lost
to L-S 47-7.)
L-S is also an older,
more experienced team.
Most of the players who
beat Donegal last year will
be returning to Mount Joy
on Friday.
On paper, the Indians
have only one thing going
for them: for once, they’ll
have an edge in physical
bulk. If they can prevent
the L-S backfield and pass
The parade will be jolted
into existence at Riverview
Elementary School. It will
creep up Market Street,
ooze over Bridge Street,
and scream down Walnut
Street, before slithering
into Jaycee headquarters.
Trick or Treat Night in
the boro will be held two
days later, on Oct. 28, from
7 to 9 PM.
According to the Mari-
etta Jaycees, the old
Marietta High School build-
ing is haunted by ghosts,
goblins, and many other
unworldly creatures. To
placate these fiends, the
Jaycees are holding their
4th annual SCREAM IN

receivers from breaking
into the open, they may be
able to control the game, in
spite of L-S’s superior
speed.
The most dangerous
moments of the game for
the Indians will occur
during kickoffs and punt
returns. L-S specializes in
scoring from such unlikely
situations. When they have
room to run, they fly.
Donegal played a slightly
sloppy game against Ann-
ville-Cleona last week. The
defense allowed a 32-yard
touchdown pass in the last
quarter. A-C scored its
other touchdown of the
game after a 40 yard run.
Both plays resulted from a
momentary softening of the
Indian defense — the kind
of play that L-S would have
exploited with ever! more
devastating effects.
In spite of their less-
than-par performance, the
Indians won the game
22-16.
THE DARK! starting on
October 21st.
The doors will be opened
at 7:00 PM and closed at
11:00. The creaky old
school’s spirits will also be
available for those without
heart conditions on every
one of the next nine days
(same hours), except the
October 19, 1977
As usual, Pete Splain led
the Donegal scoring parade
with two touchdowns and
three conversion kicks.
Pete charged 148 yards on
22 carries in the game.
Arlen Mummau picked
up another six points on a
three yard dash.
A-C specializes in option
plays, one of the Indians’
defensive weak points. The
defense performed well
enough to win the game,
holding A-C’s star quarter-
back, Mike Sorentino, to 70
passing yards. Sorentino
hurled the ball 11 times,
connected S times, and was
intercepted twice.
Next Friday, we’ll find
out whether the Indians
can contain Smoot.
Expect a hard-fought
game, with the Indians
plodding slowly but ef-
fectively on the ground,
while L-S counters with
sudden burst of speed and
aerial fireworks.
