Page 16—SUSQUEHANNA TIMES Parent of Week C. Ginder A couple days after the Susquehanna Times ran their first article on *‘Parent of the Week."' we received the following letter: We nominate our Dad for Parent of the week award. He is a super dad because he loves and spend a lot of time with each of us. He was the pee wee leage baseball of mount joy Athletic Association this past year. He teaches us many thin on how to play foot ball, baseball and soccer. He takes us on long bike rides whe our mom works. We go to church every Sunday in Lititz. We love him very much Steve Ginder-11 John Ginder-9 Anne Ginder-5 221 School Lane Mount Joy 653-5355 Whe we went to visit the Ginders they were all there: Clair W. Ginder, his wife Marv (Seaber) Ginder, and their three children: Steve, John. and Anne. Anne seemed to be the most excited by a visit to her house by a reporter; she was smiling broadly and jump- ing up and down. The children things than they had mentioned in their letter that their father does for them: helping them fix their bikes. "‘sometimes’’ buying them lots of toys, taking them on vacations, to the movies. baby-sitting while their "Mom's at work.’ Mr. amd Mrs. Ginde have a rather comglicatec and changing work schedule that they must continually work out together. Mrs. Ginder, who has her R.N. from Lancaster General and a B.S. in nursing from Elizabethtown College, told more 57 2 Mary and Clair W. Ginder stand in back of their three children: John, Anne, and Steve. works afternoons and nights at Columbia Hospital. Mr. Ginder drives trucks to anc from the New Yorl Metropolitan Area for Yel low Freight. Mrs. Ginde: may return from the hospital at midnight; then Mr. Ginder will leave for the Yellow Freight terminal in Lancaster, drive a truck to New York, drive a truck back to Lancaster, and return to Mount Joy in mid-morning. The Ginders arrange their work schedule so that one of them is always at home with the children. Mr. Ginder’s beliefs about raising children are based on Christian philoso- phy, a Christian philosophy which he in turn learned from his parents. Mr. Ginder’s father, Victor Ginder lives in Locust Grove. His mother Florence Ginder died three years ago. About his parents he says, ‘‘To me they were the best.”” Mr. Ginder attended the Green Tree Church of the Brethren as a boy. When he married Mary Seaber from Lititz, he started attending the Moravian Church there, where the entire family goes now. About different church denominations, Mr. Ginder says, ‘‘It doesn’t matter too much, so long as you worship the resurrected God.”’ We asked what there was in Christianity which was so important for being a good parent. He answered with one word: ‘‘Love.”’ [continued on page 8] Predicto picks Garden Spot over Donegal Dr. Predicto, unfortunate- lv, picks Garden Spot to beat Donegal 27-0 this Friday. Needless to say, the staff of the Susquehanna Times disagrees completely with Predicto’s prognostication for this game. We believe there psychological factors, like team and community spirit which elude his cold mathematical calculat- ions. We have the audacity to make a counter prediction: Donegal 13, Garden Spot 7. Here are the rest of Dr. Predicto’s prophecies: Section One Manheim Muhlenberg Wilson over Cedar Crest McCaskey over Conesto- ga Valley Lebanon over Hempfield Lancaster Catholic over Gov. Mifflin Twp. over Section Two Manheim Central over Elizabethtown Ephrata over Penn Manor Warwick over Columbia Section Three ELCO over Cocalico Annville-Cleona over Lampeter-Strasburg Northern Lebanon over Lebanon Catholic Mules defeat Indians, 13 to 12 It was the middle of the final quarter of the game and favored Donegal was leading Solanco, 12-7. Then the Indians bungled a punt, giving the ball to Solanco on their 30-yard line. The Mules made good use of Donegal’s blunder. In eight plays, taking plenty of the precious remaining time, Solanco moved the ball to a winning touchdown and making the final score 13-12. In the first quarter Steve Meszaros had gone 68 yards to a touchdown, before he injured his leg and had to leave the game. A sustained drive by the Indians in the third quarter was halted by a 15-yard penalty for an illegal block. Total yardage for the teams was similar to the final score: 187 for Donegal, 193 for Solanco. Next week the Indians take on Garden Spot there. Donegal Midget results Here are the results of Sunday’s Donegal Braves football games: A Team: Donegal-0, Willow Street-14 B Team: Donegal-14, Willow street-0 C Team: Donegal-6, Willow street-0 D Team: Donegal-0, Willow Street-18 September 26, 1979 Never-say-die booters come from behind, win Last Wednesday the DHS soccer team won from Penn Manor in the final minutes of the game. At half-time Manor led 2-0. Donegal scored two points in the third period tying up the game, and then scored the winning point with § minutes to go. Coach Bernie Thome called the performance a “super effort.” He said Penn Manor was a ‘‘real good team,” and that the LL Donegal player deserve ‘‘a lot of praise for their outstanding job.”’ “We were up for this game,” said Thome. Thome sees a tough week ahead with Hempfield here Tue. night, with the J-Vs playing at 6 and the varsity at 7:30. The J-Vs lost to Penn Manor last week, 4-5, but showed pluck by changing the score from 2-5 at one point. Tennis girls fall under racquets of McCaskey Donegal’s girls tennis team went down before McCaskey on Wednesday, 0-7, ending the unbeaten streaks of Donegal’s three top seeds: Beth Keffer, Sherri Kinsey, and Marty Miller.
