To the editor; In response to Mrs. Jane Shultz’s misinformed and erroneous accusations of the Donegal Braves Football Program, I would like to take this opportunity to respond to these false allegations. First of all, these organi- zations are not run by the same people, and attending parent meetings would en- lighten her to this fact. Mrs. Shultz also contends that her son did not play in any games for 2 years on teams that didn’t win a To the editor: M.Y.A.A. a clique? Not so. In response to Mrs. Jane Shultz’s letter last week in your paper, I would like to give you our facts and feelings. No, our baseball and soft- ball program is not dying, in fact we are getting bigger and better. Since our inception we have grown from six teams and approximately 75 kids to 11 teams and 175 kids. The clique, as we are called, are the handful of people who donate their time and effort to make this one of the better organiza- tions in this area. We would be better if the people who sit back and criticize would get off their whispering, and criticizing backs and help out once in a while. In reference to our travel- ing midgets our policy is as follows. Tryouts are held and the better players are picked. Then the boys are told they have a choice to stay or go back down to pee-wees. Once they make that choice they are commit- ed for the year. Mrs. Shultz’s son had that choice June 20, 1979 2 letters from Bump Yohe game. False. Every boy on the ‘B’ team played in every game and almost evenly played a half of every game. Mrs. Shultz’ son was a lineman, and her husband was his line coach. He surely would know if his son hadn’t played. I question whether Mrs. Shultz wants her son to be on a baseball or football team or be the team himself. Thank you ‘““Bump’’ Yohe Coach ‘B’ team What he learned 1 credit to his coach at that time, Mr. Don Neal, who brought him along slow so he would learn to adjust to the better competition. I must say that right now he must be doing another fine job as his team is 6 wins and 1 loss in the Susque- hanna League. I have seen most of his games and he does try to use his bench whenever he is able. As for being a friend or relative to play in the M.Y.A.A. is pure bull. Out of all the kids, and the few who work hard for the M.Y.A.A., we couldn’t make all these friends or relatives in a lifetime. Mrs. Shultz says she .is proud not to be a part of the M.Y.A.A. (clique). Un- fortunately there are some parents who don’t want to be active, and it is not fair to criticize those who are. . If one cannot say some- thing good about a volunteer organization, it is better to say nothing at all. The M.Y.A.A. will con- tinue to grow and be active in our community with or and decided to stay up. without the help of the Mrs. a When he quit it was of his Shultzes. 1 (or his parents’) choosing.

I know this for 1960’s and hope to be here in the year 2000.
