It was the hour of decision
Monday night for the coaches of
the six schoolboy football teams
who participated in the Bi-State
Conference play in the 1966 sea-
son when they, along with the
principals and coaches of all ten
schools in the conference, met for
their Winter meeting at Shady
Rest restaurant on U. S. Routell,
north of Martinsburg. It was the
time for the coaches to sit down
and make their selections for the
Al,l-Conference teams and Jeffer-
son County's two representatives
in the league- Shel~herdstown
and Harpers Ferry--faired excep-
tionally well in the selections
with each team having three
players named to the first team,
each collecting two berths on the
second team and each playing
four men on the third team. Shep-
herdstown had two boys in the
honoruble mention class ~nd
Harpers Ferry one.
Named to the first team from
Harpers Ferry were Lorne Pope
and John Fox, two fine Tiger
tackles, who played a maior role
in the 6-2-1 record which the Ti-
gers chalked up during the sea-
son; and Sago Garrett, the lead.

of the leading scorers in the sec-

and Garrett are seniors, while
Fox is only a junior.
The Shepherdstown representa-

little high school players in the
entire area, who was a power on
both the offense and defense for
the Cardinals; Max Moore, a
standout interior guard and Ron
Kidrick. the Cardinals' high scor-
ing fullback, who was also one of
the leading scorers in the section
and area. Wright and Moore are
seniors and Kidrick a sopho-
