By David Weinberg With Wildwood High School playing without guard Mark Harmon and losing, star center Bob Schafer for most of the game with early foul trouble, Lower Cape*May appeared ready for a victory last Friday. Despite Kyle Anderson's 16 points, poor shooting from the floor and the foul line by the Capers helped the Warriors to a 48-39 win over^thc visitors. The Capers grabbed a 9-8 first quarter lead behind 6 points by , Australian transfer Steve Puller. It proved to be the only leatfr the Capers would enjoy however, as the Warriors opened up a 24-18 halftime

lead.

The Capers continued to hang tough throughout the final quarter until Anderson and forward Greg Douglass both fouled out. Anderson led both teams in scoring with 16 points, while Douglass and Puller each addbd 8 for thfc Capers.

play.

Last year the Rec Dept., under the direction of Gregg Arnold, sponsored the league which played at the high school gym.

very successful prograrfi produced a champion - THo State Farm Ins. Co. composed of a group of five athletes led by Mike McLaughlin. SO WHAT'has happened this year?Avith about 50-75 players clamoring for a chance to play volleyball, the Board of Education in an economy move refused ^Vto open the school gyms for apy outside activities. It was a matter of having a qualified custodian on duty and paying him overtime Gregg Arnold then turned to the 4-H Club for permission louse their . facilities af the Lockwood Youth center. But-he was told it would cost him $40 a night to play there. This was to pay for the light and heat. THIS EXORBITANT price was beyond the means of the Rec. Dept through the efforts of Rill Lockwood and Betty Jean Jesunkcowsky. The cost per night was lowered to $20 per night and nowthere is light at the end of the tun net. By charging an entry fee of $40 per team, the Rec Dept, can sponsor the league again this year So it is hoped that State Farm. Kiwanis Optimist. Acme. Jamesway and Murphy's will again be in contention t and there is room for two more. Any organization wishing to play should get in touch with Gregg Arnold at the Middle Township Recreation Dept.
