Slatington Upsets Dope, Beating Palmerton’s Blue Bombers, 12-0

Nearly 3,000 football fans sensed the significance of the old adage, "All good things come to those who wait," last Thursday morning, when after waiting ten long years, S. H. S. defeated Palmerton 12 to O. The DeRosa-Williams coached team kept the Matuska-coached Palmerton team guessing almost the entire game.
