Page 8 - Mount Joy Bulletin September 11, 1974 Donegal Braves Win Red Rose Openers The Donegal Braves Midget football teams opened league play against Columbia on Sunday, Sept. 8, on the DHS field and came away with three victories. A week earlier the teams won triple victories in exhibition play against St. Anthony's elevens. The ‘B’ team opened fast when Steve Meszaros in- tercepted a pass and scampered 65 yards for the score on the next play. Jeff Kauffman then recovered his first of two fumbles and Frank Bromer rambled for 20 yards and another score. The remainder of the first hall saw Kauffman recover his second fumble, Craig Lehman intercept another pass, and the defensive unit, led by Darin Kolp, Steve Butz, Phil Landis, and Doug Bernard, completely stop Columbia. In the 3rd quarter, a Butz-to-Steve Neal pass for 33 yards pushed the score to 18-0. Shortly Neal also intercepted a pass but the Braves were unable to take advantage of it. Late in the game, (lolumbia mustered a score to make the final result 18-6 for the Braves.

A Darryl Shank to Brian Ney pass started the first quarter at 6- 0. In the 2nd, Scott Jones charged 67 yards for a score, quickly followed by Mitch Johnson's short plunge for another. A Ney-to-Shank pass for 16 yards added six more and at the half Donegal led, 24-0. Meanwhile, the defense was bottling up the Columbia opponents with solid football. Tom Weber recovered a fumble as did Shank. Rick Gordner picked off a pass late in the half, but no score resulted. Craig Meyers, Scott Adams, Bob Stauffer and Bob Welcomer threw up a stone wall for the ‘A’ squad. Late in the third quarter, a Ney-to-Adams flip added points as the score mounted to 30-0. With Jones also recovering a fumble and the Krady brothers, Kyle and Casey, making some fine tackles, the Braves earned their shutout. The ‘C’ team, seeking to retain their Red Rose League championship again this year, came out with a rush as Tom Lucabaugh recovered a fumble, but the Braves were unable to move; gave up the ball and got it right back again when Scott Hoover recovered another fumble. The defense, led by Jim Perry, Bill Dishart, Todd Butz and Marty Harmes kept the Braves in the game as the offense sputtered for three quarters. Early in the fourth quarter, Todd Butz swept his own right end for 16 yards on a fourth down play and the score. The defense made those six points stand up as they held on for a 6-0 victory. The ‘D’ team also took on Columbia on Saturday morning, winning, 6-0. Donegal’s offense bogged down on the soggy turf and a defensive struggle was on.

By mid-1971, however, the operating costs for producing and transmitting each 1,000 gallons of water exceeded the lowest rates charged to large industrial users. As inflation increased, the gap between rates and costs has widened steadily, the Authority adds. In the meantime, in- creased residential and industrial water use has increased because of more connections and heavier use by all classes of customers. Too, the Commonwealth has ordered the Authority to add reliable sources of water to the system as part of an agreement for using Charles Spring at the west edge of the borough. Now, two wells are located [ Storyhour To Resume The Storyhour offered by the Mount Joy Library will resume its program on Tuesday, Sept. 17. Doors of the library will open at 9:30 a.m. However, the actual storytelling time in the “magic room” does not begin until 9:45 a.m. participate. All pre-school children in Mount Joy between the ages of three and five years of age are invited to Donegal Indians Open But Bow, 35-0, To Tide Donegal’s 1974 season opener at Columbia Saturday afternoon was something less than sen- sational as the big Red Tide rolled to a 35-0 victory. It was sweet revenge for the Columbians who fell to a 13-0 defeat at Donegal a year earlier. Although the Indians of Gayne Deshler were never really in the ball game after the first of the second period, the Tribe did perform with certain satisfaction, con- sidering the handicaps under which it is working. Columbia had scored only once in the first period but in the second, the Tide rolled home with a pair of touch- downs and there was little doubt of ultimate victory. Columbia scored in all four quarters, running up 271 yards from rushing on 42 carries. The Indians had 140 on 43 tries. However, first downs were nearly even and Donegal hung right in the ball game with its punting. Jeff Sheetz, promising backfield ace, led the Donegal offensive attack with 72 yards gained on 17 tries. Newton Kendig had the same number of attempts and made 55. This week the Indians will host the Elizabethtown Bears in a Saturday af- ternoon game. Kick off is 2 p.m. Telephone Company Says It Needs Rate Increase The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission has suspended for investigation a $4.9 million annual in- crease sought by the United Telephone Company of Pennsylvania, which was filed to become effective August 26. United Telephone President L.G. Wigbels, in discussing the impact the suspension will have on the company, said, “It is dif- ficult to discuss any of the details of the announced PUC order to suspend our rate case as we have not yet received a copy of the order. However, I can say that we were very, very disap- pointed to hear of the suspension because as I stated at the time of filing in June this increase is a must. And I mean a must, if we are to continue to maintain the high level of service we now have and to meet the growth taking place in .our service area.” and it is reliably believed that they will furnish 1.6 million gallons of quality water. Harnessing the wells and making all connections into the system is expected to cost $1.4 million. A breakdown of the new water rate structure is as follows: Gallons Per Quarter Rate Per 1000 Gallons First 25,000 $1.25 (or less) Next 75,000 .80 Next 200,000 .70 Next 700,000 .65 Next 9,000,000 .60 Over 10,000,000 .90 Wigbels continued, ‘We too are consumers and are just as much the victims of inflation as anyone else. For example, our plant in- vestment per customer has gone up more than 70 percent since 1966 and during the same period we more than doubled our total plant in- vestment. The cost of telephone cable alone has risen 15 percent in the last two months.” “Within the next few months the company must go to the bond market to negotiate the sale of $15 million in bonds in order to continue our very costly construction and service improvement programs.’ Wigbels also added, ‘‘The current condition of the bond market is best described as chaotic. The interest rate we pay on these bonds will be directly affected by the financial posture of the company, So prompt ap- proval of this rate request is crucial.” | Wigbels asserted, ‘‘We have very earnestly tried to explain to our customers the needs for additional revenues — right now. I am proud to report that almost all of our customers, business and residence alike, have responded with support — or at least expressed their understanding. And we have contacted hundreds of them personally. No one likes — and rightfully so — to pay more for goods or services. But you can be assured that our customers, for the most part, know they have been, and still are getting, and are going to continue to get a very good bargain in their telephone service.” Carnival To Benefit Project D.I.G. At Donegal High The faculty and ad- ministration of Donegal School District will sponsor a carnival on Saturday, Sept. 14, to raise funds for Project D.I.G. The carnival will be held in the high school parking lot immediately following the Donegal-Elizabethtown football game (ap- proximately 4 p.m.) and continue until 11 p.m. Among the features of the carnival will be a music by the Donegal high school stage band; chicken corn soup by the Florin Fire company, including take out servings; prizes; games and many other en- tertainments.
