December 7, 1967 Lehighton registers 10 pins to rudely welcome Palmerton into the sport of wrestling. Lafayette Schoenberger claims a 30-second fall at 95 pounds to open the match and the Indians cruise to a 60-3 victory. David Henritzy (112 pounds), Thomas Leffler (120) and Dennis Haldeman (127) also gain pins before the Bombers get on the scoreboard with Bill Horn's decision win. Other Lehighton falls come from Len Searfoss (138), Terry Woginrich (145), Russell Neal (154), Lee Siglin (165), Dennis Ahner (180) and Raymond Heiser (Hwt). Palmerton is in its first year of the sport.
