Homecoming festivities at Donegal High School
The big homecoming
crowd was delighted with
Norlebco’s excellent band
and accomodating football
Jennifer Mylin, runner-up in the Homecoming Queen
contest at Donegal High School.
“Donegal will win,”
says Doktor Predicto
Dr. Predicto had a mear-
perfect record last week,
calling only the McCaskey/
Manheim Township game
incorrectly.
Predicto looks ahead to
this week’s action, and
predicts a ‘‘Squeaker’’ for
Donegal against Cocalico,
with the Indians coming out
the 20-19 victors.
In other games this week,
Predicto forecasts the fol-
lowing:
SECTION
Cedar Crest over McCaskey
Gov. Miff. over Muhlen.
Wilson over Hempfield
Lebanon over Lanc. Cath.
Manheim Twp. over CV
; SECTION II
Columbia over Ephrata
Central over Solanco
Warwick over PM
SECTION II
Donegal over Cocalico
L-S over Norlebco
A-C over Leb. Cath.
Elco over Garden Spot
Predicto calls the match-
up between Elco and
Garden Spot the ‘‘game of
the year.”
team, which allowed itself to
be overrun 27-8 by the
hometown Donegal Indians,
last Friday.
Donegal’s well-balanced
offense scored 20 points by
the end of the first half,
while the defense held the
invading Vikings scoreless
until the final moments of
the game.
The entire Indian offen-
sive backfield looked good.
Rick Funk carried the ball 12
times and gained 92 yards.
Steve Bowman, with six
carries, gained 77 yards,
averaging one first down per
carry. Ron Kennedy, with
seven carries, racked up 63
yards. And quarterback
Darryl Risbert threw the ball
six times, completed four
passes (one a touchdown)
for 39 yards, and was not
intercepted.
Scott Snyder led the
defense with six solo tackles
and a blocked punt that set
up the Indians’ second
touchdown. He also tackled
the Viking quarterback on
two attempted pass plays,
and assisted in four more
tackles.
Jeff Duke had nine tackles
and four assists, and Ron
Kennedy intercepted a pass.
Indian touchdowns were
scored by Funk, Kennedy,
Bowman and Darrin Kolp.
Snyder kicked three extra
points.
The Indians are now one
victory away from the sixth
winning season in the
history of the school (Done-
gal has fielded football
teams for 27 years, but has
had only five winning
seasons, most of them quite
recently).
The Indians take on
Cocalico next week, and are
favored to win. The game
will, however, be much
tougher than last week’s
contest with Norlebco. Co-
calico has a strong offense
led by quarterback Bruce
Wolf, one of the best passes
in the league. The team has
lost most of its games
because of poor defense.

Jeff Duke
is ‘Irresistible’

title.
