DONEGAL NEWS NOTES
From School Board
October 17, 1974
Twenty-six more Donegal pupils are receiving ‘free or
reduced price’’ meals at district cafeterias than a year ago.
As of Sept. 19, the project called DIG, to build an auxiliary
gymnasium at D.H.S. had received contributions of $18,250.21
and had unpaid bills of $11,100.
Between Sept. 6, 1974 and Oct. 1, 1974, Donegal district
enrollment dropped 21, to 2,875.
Mrs. Peggy Nissley has been named to handle purchase
orders for the district through the business office, taking up
part of the work formerly handled by Dr. Ralph Coleman,
who retired this summer.
Nov. 11 is traditional Veterans Day. The nation observes
the day on Monday, Nov. 5. But, Donegal schools will observe
the occasion on Friday, Nov. 8, in all buildings.
Sixty-two pupils in the district — about 2 percent — are
part of ‘““minority” groups, a state report revealed.
One hundred and eighty-four pupils are participating in fall
athletic programs. As of Thursday night, Oct. 17, there had
been 9 team wins, 12losses and three ties.
J.V. football games have been discontinued for '74 because
of lack of a sufficient number of boys. Only one game — with
Columbia — was played.
Report cards will be sent home Nov. 7.

Two Braves Teams
Win From Presidents
The Donegal Braves
midget football ‘B’ team
opened play Sunday against
the Presidents by scoring a
22-6 triumph.
After falling behind, 6-0, at
the start of the 2nd quarter,
the Braves charged into the
lead on a Steve Butz to Steve
Neal pass good for 16 yards
and the score. A 2-point pass
from Butz to Steve Meszaros
put Donegal up, 8-6.
Late in the third, Butz
plunged over for six more
and a repeat of the 2-pointer
gave Donegal a 16-6 lead,
and then at the beginning of
the 4th period Meszaros
squirted 50 yards for another
and Donegal finished up with
a 22-6 win.
The defense, led by Phil
Landis, Frank Brommer,
Jeff Kauffman (who
recovered one fumble), and
Phil Spickler played tough as
nails. Tony Mann chipped in
with a fumble recovery, as
Children to Collect
For UNICEF
Interested children from
the Grandview and Seiler
elementary Schools in Mount
Joy will be collecting money
for UNICEF on October 24
through 27. UNICEF is the
United Nations’ Children’s
Fund which was awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize.
UNICEF is assisting more
than 500 long-range
programs in over 100
countries on an annual
budget equivalent to what is
spent on world armaments in
just two hours of every day.
Coins collected by the
children of Mount Joy will be
used to save the lives of other
children.
Nine hundred million
children in the developing
countries, that is three of
every four, lack medical
attention as well as enough
of the proper nutritious food
and an adequate education.
Through UNICEF, these
children are given the care
they need.
Welcome the Mount Joy
children when they come to
collect. They are giving their
play time to help others.
Your donations will be ap-
preciated.

the defense did the job.
The ‘A’ team kept pace
with a come-from -behind 14-
12 win. Joe Butz opened the
scoring with a 2-yard plunge
for a 6-0 lead. However, the
home team quickly tied the
score and then went ahead,
12-6, at the end of the third
quarter. The 4th quarter
belonged to Donegal. Scott
Jones plowed over for a
score Lo knot the count at 12.
Then a Ney-to Shank-back -
lo-Ney pdss play added the 2-
point conversion and the
Braves held in for the win.
Brian Ney and Randy Derr
each recovered fumbles and
Jones and Casey Krady each
intercepted passes to aid the
defense. Bob Pyle, Tom
Weber, Eric Gerlitzki and
Bob Stauffer keyed a defense
that held when it counted.
The ‘C’ team’s title hopes
received a jolt when the
Presidents upset the Braves,
6-0 as they took the second
half kick-off and marched in
for the score. The offense of
Todd Butz, Ron Kennedy,
John Ott and Marty Harmes
couldn't get untracked
enough to pull this one out.
The defense, led by Rod
Fellenbaum, Billy Dishart,
Darrel Risberg and Jim
Perry, played well but gave
up one long gainer which
proved fatal.
On Sunday, the 27th, the
Braves will travel to
Conestoga Valley for the last
regular season game for
1974.
