SPORTS Raider Football o The turnout for basket- ball was not as good as in prior years. This could be due to the fact that we had our registration a month earlier than usual. Many boys are holding off to see if they make the junior high or junior varsity teams. My advice is to register now with the PBC and if you make the high school teams, we will refund your registration fee. Only 10 or 12 boys will make each squad, in the high school. We will still accept registrations for a couple of more weeks, but as each team fills up you have to go on a waiting list, so sign up now by calling 593-6:)7i. Rifle will begin on Mon- day, Oct. 17, 7 P.M. at E.R.H.S., Room #7. After the first two weeks it will be held at Marion St. School. Judo will also begin on Monday, Oct. 17, 7 P.M. at Centre Ave. School. All players should wear sneak- ers and sweat clothes. New players are still welcome. Bowling continues every Friday at R.V.L. Lanes. We leave at 3:30 from the Amer- ican Legion parking lot. If some more bowlers could get a ride to the alley's it would help as the bus is becomming quite crowded.

We just can't seem to hit that magic \5\! We had 4 wins, and 1 loss Sunday. The Peanuts battled their way to an 8-6 victory over Oyster Bay. The first half ws all Raider defense. They continually kept Oyster Bay backed up in their own terri- tory. They backed them so far that the first score was a safety. The half ended with a abre 2-0 score. In the second half it was Aquafredda on a reverse play that went for a 25 yd. TD. The PAT failed. Oyster Bay got on the board with a TD, but their PAT failed and the game ended in an 8-6 victory for the Raiders. They will be at home this Sunday against Mineola at 11:30 at the HS. The Pee Wees were also at home Sunday to the League leading Mineola Mustangs. The Pee Wees lost the game 20-0 despite outstanding efforts by Aidan McGurrin, Mike Bertolini, Scott Smil- lie, Jess Walker, Mike Taranto, Jay Agnew and Frank Argondizzo. They will also be at home this Sunday against Elmont at 1:00. It didn't seem to bother our JV's that they were the first game, an unscheduled one at that, starting at 10:00. They proved they were u p to the game by beating Mas- sapequa 7-0. The game was an out- standing defensive effort by both sides. But, our JV offense somehow rose above the Massapequa defense's blitzes and marched down -the field and capped the march with a 7 yd. TD run by Mike Pizzo. The J V defense then went to work on Massapequa and held them scoreless. Out- standing on defense were Tommy Kelly, John Acquafredda, Matt Lasky, Darian Vito, George Arnio- tis, and T.J. O'Connor. They will be away this Sun- day at W. Hempstead. The Midget team, the 4th -game at the HS, knew they had a crucial game against Mineola. They came through with all the zest and spirit the four coaches could ask for and scored 38 points against Mineola's 19!! Tremendous blocking by Temple Rachek, Romano, Racanelli, Pickering, OHc, Honerkampj Hickam and Friscia made it possible for Jimmy Verity, # 21, to run 140 yds. and score 4 TDs!! The Raider blocking was instrumental in helping Danny Vito, #33, plunge over for East Rockaway's 1st TD of the day. Chris Schaefer's passing to Kevin Kelly and John Wilson set up another TD for the Midget Team. John Wilson also caught a pass from QB Chris Schaefer for an 8 yd. TD pass. In the second half the Raider defensive players- Lederman, Corral, Con- taldi, Clemente, Chisholm and Buchholz held the Mineola team to only 6 points. The Raider Midget Team is tied for first place in their division. Come on down and watch the games, support the Midget Team, their spirit, and their cheerlead- ers. They will be at home against Oyster Bay at 2:30. The Senior Team was the only team to play away Sunday. It was another game that was defense all the way. The 4th quarter on a pass from Pat De Masi to Rod McLane the Seniors finally scored. The PAT failed, and the game ended with the Raiders on top, 6-0. The Seniors will be on the road this Sunday against Baldwin. SUE VITO GOP HEADQUARTERS OPENS.
