Youngfwood 20 Youngwood 6 Youngwood 0 Youngwood 6 Total 69 1943 FOOTBALL REVIEW Youngwoods second home game was played in the mud but this did not st-op our 'boys from rolling to a 20 to 0 victory over Washington Township. The game with Ligonier on their field ended our winning streak. Youngwood lost by one point, 7 to 6. After a week's va-cation the Railroaders took on the pouwerful T rformation Pitcairn team. With a 21 to 0 victory Pitcairn also took home many casualties. The final game of the season and the last one for the seniors was played at Scottdale under their lights. The Railroaders football antics thrilled the spectators but Youngwood was defeated again by only one point. The ending score was 7 to 6 favor Scottdale.
