Storm damage in area
High, localized winds did damage to several barns and smaller buildings outside of Maytown
Sunday night. Shown above are the remains of a large structure located at Colebrook and Rock
Point Roads. Workmen were already clearing away the debris Monday morning.
Experienced hockey team off to a strong start
“Things got off really
pretty well,”” says Joyce
Zangari, coach of the
Donegal field hockey team.
That seems to be just a
bit of an understatement.
The team began the season
with three scrimmages;
winning all three. They
defeated Hempfield, Lan-
caster Catholic and Colum-
bia.
They continued their
winning ways by beating the
Manheim Township team.
Next came a loss to
McCaskey and a tough 1-2
defeat at the hands of
Ephrata. The game against
Ephrata was the first league
game. ‘‘It could have gone
either way,’ says Coach
Zangari. “It was very
close.”
The team got back on the
winning track by defeating
Elizabethtown, 5-0, last
Thursday afternoon.
The team meets Annville-
Cleona and Cedar Crest this
week. Mrs. Zangari doesn’t
like to make any predictions.
‘““We play in a very strong
section; perhaps the strong-
est section in Pennsylvania.
Every team we come up
against is strong. It is best
to take one game at a time
and not think too far
ahead.”
The field hockey team is
described by Zangari as
very experienced. Most of
the players, with the
exception of the goalie, are
back.
Playing goalie is a strong
freshman, Amy Westerman.
‘“Amy is doing an outstand-
ing job for us. She has a very
strong clear.”’
The nucleus of the team
consists of the six seniors:
Sherry Derr, Betsey Ger-
mer, Brenda Hershey, Col-
leen Jones, Gina Mohr and’
Joann Storm. There are also
some experienced juniors
and sophopmores playing.
“The girls have a good
competitive attitude,” says
Zangari. ‘‘They should do
really well this season.”’
The players, described by
Girl’s tennis team boasts 3-1 league
The Girl’s Tennis team is
off to a fine start this season
with a 3-3 overall record and
a 3-1 league record. And it’s
easy to understand why they
are doing so well. Coach
Kitty Jo Etsell treats the
girls to milkshakes after
every win. That’s almost
enough to make this lazy
sports editor take up tennis!
The girl’s team is a young
team, with only two of the
top five girls returning from
last season.
The number one player is
Beth Keffer. Beth, a senior,
has played in that position
for the past two years as
well as this season. She
brings a lot of experience to
the game.
Number two Marty Miller
is the other returning
player. The sophomore
played from the number
three spot last year.
Rounding out the top five
are Cindy Brubaker, a
junior, senior Darlene Mus-
ser, and freshman Jenny
Crider.
The team got off to a slow
start, losing to Cedar Crest,
5-2, Manheim Central, 5-2,
and McCaskey, 4-3.
“The kids were really
nervous,”” Coach Etsell
explains. This was due to
their inexperience, she
Good attitude on soccer team
The Donegal Soccer team
is quite enthusiastic this
season, according to Coach
Bernie Thome. The booters,
who have a two loss and two
tied league record, meet
Elizabethtown today, at
home, and Hempfield Fri-
day, away.
‘““E-town has a strong
team. They just defeated
McCaskey 8-3,” says
Thome, ‘‘but I hope, rather I
know, that we will get up for
feels.
The girls got over their
nervous feelings for the next
three meets, defeating Con-
estoga Valley 5-2, Elizabeth-
town S-2, and Garden Spot
6-1.
Looking ahead to this
week’s meets, Coach Etsell
thinks the team will win
that game.”
Hempfield will be tough
also, according to Thome.
“They are one of the top
teams, if not the top team,
in the league.”
Thome feels it is very
important for the Donegal
team to win some games
right now to keep the good
attitude. ‘‘If our wins could
match our attitude, we’d be
doing great.’’
The team consists of a

combined with experience,
should provide Donegal with
a very good hockey record

admits that Warwick, a non-

pretty tough to beat.

says. ‘‘That’s how we are

season. We will just wait

Predicto
Dr. Predicto, that math-
ematical prognosticator with
the oversized brain cells, did
pretty well in his predictions
last week, missing only two
games.
Conestoga Valley lost to
Lancaster Catholic by a |
21-20 score, and Governor |
Mifflin defeated Manheim
Township, 7-0 .
Otherwise edictor was
faultless, an unfortunate
thing for Donegal. The
Indians were defeated by
the Barons of Manheim
Central 39-14. Predicto has
no soft spot in his heart for
the home team.
‘““‘But, fear not,” he is
quick to tell our sports
editor. ‘‘Donegal will defeat
Solanco by a 20-13 score.”
‘‘Are you sure?’’ asks our
editor. ‘‘The Golden Mules
topped Donegal by one point
last year. Our Indians seem
to have a lot of trouble with
the Solanco team.”
‘‘Just listen to me,’’ grins
the confident Predicto.
“Facts and figures do not
lie. Donegal will win.”
Who are we to argue with
the almighty Predicto?
Here are Dr. Predicto’s
forecasts for the upcoming
week-end of play.

The Mount Joy Jaycees

Saturday, October 4. Two of
the runs will be ‘‘Mixed

This unique even is being
held to encourage male-
female running teams as
well as individual runners.
Three runs—of five miles,
two miles, and one mile (a
short run for kids under the
age of 12)—will start and
end at the Mount Joy
Vo-Tech School. The two-
mile and one-mile courses
are mostly flat. The five-

challenge even the most
experienced runners. This
course will pass scenic spots
