Rick Funk leads Donegal Indians football team
to 27-6 victory over A-C Little Dutchmen
Led by running back Rick
Funk, the Donegal Indians:
turned in their best of-
fensive performance of the
season as they overran
Annville-Cleona’s Little
Dutchmen 27-6 last Friday.
Funk churned out 272 of
the Indians’ 359 total yards.
In the entire history of
Rick Funk
Donegal High School, only
three or four athletes have
gained more yards in a
single game. Had it not
been for a controversial
penalty which canceled 30
yards of a 60 yard
touchdown run, Funk would
have broken the 300 yard
mark, setting a new school
record.
Quarterback Darrel Ris-
berg also had a good night,
connecting with two of his
four attempted passes for 40
yards and one touchdown.
Touchdowns were scored
by Ron Kennedy, Funk (he
had two) and Steve Bowman
(who hauled in Risberg’s
pass to score).
On defense, Ron Kennedy
had a great night with two
pass interceptions and six
solo tackles. Darrin Kolp
made five solo tackles and
assisted in bringing down
five other runners.
Next Friday night is
homecoming at Donegal.
The Indians will be facing
Norlebco, a team with giant
linemen and a good quarter-
back, but not much speed.
Donegal has an excellent
chance to win this game,
and the following two, to
finish the season with a
‘DHS over Norlebco,’ says Predicto
Doktor Predicto has
applied all of his massive
brain to this weekend’s
football prediction, includ-
ing a 34-6 victory for
Donegal over Norlebco.
“It’s all downhill for
Donegal,’’ Predicto told our
sports editor. ‘“They have
seen the toughest part of the
season and should finish
very strong.
The prediction of Donegal
over Norlebco is especially
good to hear, for this week is
homecoming at Donegal.
Dr. Predicto’s other fore-
casts follow:
SECTION I
Lanc. Cath. over Muhlen.
Cedar Crest over Lebanon
Wilson over CV
McCaskey over Man. Twp.
Gov. Miff. over Hempfield
SECTION II

Donegal school board
accepts new contract
The Donegal School
Board, at last Thursday’s
meeting, accepted the new
two-year teacher’s contract
ratified by the Donegal
Education Association Octo-
ber 1.
The contract is for 1980-81
and 1981-82 with the
effective date set at October
16, 1980.
The average increase in
1980-81 salary is $1,504
(10%) average; and for
1981-82, $1,541 (9.4%)
average. :
The beginning salary for a
teacher with a bachelor’s
degree in 1980-81 will be
$10,200, and in 1981-82 it
will be $11,050.
The contract provides
dental insurance for em-
ployees but not for depend-
ents.
Complete details of the
new contract will be made
available at a later date.
In other business, ¢ the
board voted to install a dual
high
school. The burner would
depend mainly on natural
gas and use oil as a stand-by
fuel. Should gas and oil
prices even out over the next
several years, the district
will have a choice of fuels.
The district anticipates a
$25,000 per year savings on
fuel. There is also the
possiblity of a reimburse-
ment from the state for the
conversion.
Mr. William Loercher,
boys’ tennis coach, offered a
possible solution for repair-
ing the tennis court. A
repair company will make
two sample patches on the
peeling surface before win-
. ter. Resurfacing work would
be done in the spring.
ZEMCO, the company
responsible for making re-
pairs to the high school
track, has not yet visited the
school. They had promised
to come during the first two
weeks in October.
A request to purchase a
new master clock for the
Maytown building was
granted. Bought from the
Simplex Company, the clock
will cost $1,250.
The board also agreed on
the request to purchase a 12
horse power tractor mower
with snow blade for the
Seiler building. The lowest
quote received on the tractor
was $2,450.
The board also accepted
the recommendation of
BASCO engineer for spec-
ifications and supervision
for the replacement of the
Grandview boiler. Mr. Chris
Fry is the engineer for
BASCO. His services are not
to exceed 12% of con-
struction costs estimated at

The Susquehanna River is very low this year due to the very dry weather. Some
very interesting and geologically important ‘‘pot hole’’ rocks have been exposed in
the Falmouth area because of the low water. Above, Joyce Thomas, 28 Front Street,
Marietta, gets a close look at some of the pot holes, while some local kids, below,
enjoy the fun of ‘“‘falling’’ into the holes. While exploring the holes, the local group
came across some names and initials deep inside the holes, including an October 1,
1909 recording of B.W. Raine’s explorations. The photos were sent to us by Joyce, an
employee of Herr’s Market, Marietta.
