Blocking Looks Poor
1t was in this scrimmage that
the most weaknesses have shown
up, Wenzel said. Besides reveal
ing the need for Improvement on
the right side, it also showed
very poor blocking by most
everyone. AS a result, it's safe
bet there will be plenty of drill
in this all-important fundamental
this week, and right up Iuntil
the first game.
One redeeming feature dis
covered by the Coach is that the
team, as a whole, is charging
faster than last years. Failure to
start as quickly as their oppon-
ents after the ball was snapped
from center was one of the Mon
archs' greatest weaknesses last
season, and had them at a big
disadvantage quite often.
There are still three weeks to
go before Mechanicsburg comes
here Sept. IL to open the season,
and Wenzel feels his team has a
long, long ways to go before that
time. But practice will continue
every day except Sunday, until
then, and great many of the
difficulties should be ironed out
by that time.

get out and "look over the fair, "
according to Judy.
Rosemary, who is married to
Dewey Shirk, was enjoying her

ask: II wonder how Rebecca is?"
Rebecca is her five-month-old
daughter who was spending the
day with her aunt. 1T was too
hot to bring the baby along,
Rosemary said.
Rosemary, Judy, Carolyn and
Grandma Hartshorn returned to

all of them, including Rosemary's
husband, will be down to the fair
again on Tuesday.

come over and help out" His
son-in law will also help with
the chores.
Besides their own farm Of 1853
acres, the Westlakes farm about
$50 additional acres. Mr. West
lake is a Shropshire sheep rails
er, and now has about so head. In
addition, he has 20 head of cat
tie, about 80 hogs, and the boys
have several head of Angus and
Hereford steers.
Mr.. Westlake and the boys
handle all the farm work. This
summer they harvested 80 acres
of wheat, a large hay crop and
have about 80 acres of corn and
several acres of soy beans yet to
harvest.
The whole family is looking
forward to their trip to New
York. >Since school begins before
they get back, Judy and Carolyn
will not be able to make the trip.
"They don't seem to mind,

fair will be a big thing for them" !"
