I distributed 3000 fliers in our local schools. This is the only way besides this column that 1 can publicize our registrations. Many people ignore registration and come to our activities to sign up then. This causes many difficulties in running a program. In the future there will be two fees. One will be for people who come to registration, the other (a higher fee) will be for people that join later. For this regis- tration we will still sign up people for the same price. If you are interested in basketball you may still reg- ister. Boys and Girls in 7th and 8th Grade will be per- mitted to play Pal and High School. The seasons will not conflict as in the past. Boys and Girls ages 8 to 18 may still register for Judo. Judo is on Wed. at Center Ave. School from 7 to 9 PM. Boys and Girls ages 10 to 18 may still register for Karate.

Raider Football By Sue Vito The Raider season is almost in mid-season, and coaches I am still lacking news from you!! 1 do know that the JVs won a game, but 1 will try to get a story on that. The only game 1 can report on is the one that I see!! On Sunday, Oct. 4th, the Midgets traveled to Inwood and came away with a 25-7 victory. It was a bitter cold day, but the Raiders were hot, both on offense and defense. The touchdown by the Buc- caneers was scored late in the 4th quarter. On the first play on offense, Damien Del Pezzo took off for a 50 yd. TD. The Pat failed, but the Raiders were on me scoreboard, the next TD was scored by Jarett Vito, who romped for 20 yds. At the half the Raid- ers were ahead 12-0. In the third quarter Victor Nigro plunged in on a quarterback keeper. The last score was scored by Damien Del Pezzo, with the PAT being scored by Eric Bravaro. The games for this Sun- day, Oct. 18th are as follows.

Pack 84 meeting was a great success. We had quite a few boys already advancing in rank. The boys thorougly enjoyed the Indian Lore theme the pack used. The boys crafts were all displayed for the parents to see. The only complaint we heard was when all the leaders and committee people sang. Saturday, September 26 at 9AM, lots of feet started off together on our annual 5 mile hike to RVC Park. The day was beautiful and the turnout was fantastic. All the boys marched in fine form. Once in the Park our refreshment coordinator, Mrs. Pat Ryan, had every- thing ready for the boys: hot cocoa, soda, cookies and hot dogs. She (as always) did an outstanding job. Mr. Bill Weeks (asst. cubmaster) dressed in his straw cowboy hat did the cooking and we thank hini for his help. We then had relay races, balloon race and other games. The day ended at the park with the boys besting the dads and moms in tug of war. We then walked back home. Pm proud to say 3 more leaders have been trained with more to come. The pack and committee have grown and are all working together this year to make 87-88 the best for Pack 84. Till next time - Keep the Scouting Spirit alive.
