For HiirJ Consecutive Year
Warwick Warriors Take
L-L Section II Title
By Steve Palkovic
Warwick, behind a hard
nosed defense and a solid
ground game, downed
visiting Elizabethtown 28-7
to earn its third consecutive
Section Two title.
A win over the Bears was a
must if the Warriors had any
intention of holding the
crown alone. As was the case
the past several years,
Manheim Central suffered
only one loss and was hoping
Warwick would falter
somewhere along the way,
forcing a tie.
However the Warriors had
too much riding on the
outcome to give anything but
their best. At stake was an
unprecedented third title. No
other team won the crown
more than twice since the
formation of the LL League.
In addition, Warwick had not
lost a game on Grosh Field
since the dedication Sep­tember
1977.
Some of the seniors who
had playing time since their
sophomore year have never
tasted defeat in a league
encounter. In fact, the last
league loss came in 1976, and
since then the Warriors have
won 21 straight games.
Warwick was not about to
let that streak end on
Saturday as they took
command of the contest
from the opening whistle.
The local 11 won the toss and
elected to receive the ball.
Six plays and two minutes
later they earned their first
score. Two big plays ac­counted
for most of the
yardage.
The first came on a
reverse with Steve Neuroh
coming left, then handing
the ball off to Brian Shelly
who negotiated 23 yards
through the opposition. After
Shelly picked up 10 more on
the ground, Ruhl went to the
air. He hit Neuroh on the
right flat on a well executed
screen play, and behind
some excellent blocking the
speedster covered 38 yards
untouched. Pete Dussinger
added the PAT.
Two plays later Warwick
had the ball again due to
some good defensive play.
The Bear’s Rick Ulrich
attempted to circle around
the end, but Scott Garman
was there to meet him with a
hard tackle, causing a
fumble. Joe Strohm came up
with the ball at the visitors
37.
On the second play, Brian
Shelly went 27 yards for a
score but a motion penalty
killed the touchdown. The
Warrior machine went to
work again.
Sticking to the ground,
Neuroh, Groff and Shelly put
the ball on the three with
four downs to get it across.
However a fumble, the first
of three, prevented a score.
Although Warwick spent
the remainder of the first
quarter in the Bear’s back
yard and had several op­portunities,
they couldn’t
manage to push across
points.
On one occasion, Ken Kolp
sacked the quarterback
forcing a fumble recovered
by Sid Brumbach at the 20.
But again the Warriors were
frustrated in their attempt to
score.
Late in the second period,
thanks to a Jim Lux in­terception
at midfield,
Warwick was on its way.
With Brian Shelly carrying
the ball on six of the 10 plays,

Newly-elected Judge Wayne G. Hummer Jr.
poses for a family photo with his wife Cindy, and
daughters, Jennifer, left, and Elizabeth, right, in
front of their home at 318 Linden St. They were
planning dinner out in the evening to celebrate his
election to the bench.
Election to Bench Brings Many Changes
Judge Hummer Looks
Forward to Challenge By Fran Parke
Wayne G. Hummer J r . ’s
recent election as a judge in
the Lancaster County Court
brings with it some far-reaching
changes for the
Lititz attorney.
Hummer has until Jan. 7,
when he takes his oath of
office, to wind up his affairs
as senior partner in the law
firm of Lombardo, Hummer
and Wedge and sever all ties
with the firm.
Although he is pleased and
proud to have been
nominated and elected to
this respected office, he
regrets having to give up the
practice of law and the
c l ie n t s and c lo s e
associations it has brought
over the years.
“It sounds so final. I regret
having to give up these
associations but I do look
upon being a judge as a
challenge to look forward
to—with mixed feelings,” he
said in an interview at his
home at 318 Linden St.
He feels it is an honor to be
elevated to a judgeship. It
means your fellow attorneys
had enough confidence in
your qualifications to
recommend your candidacy.
The County Republican
Committee had the con­fidence
to endorse your
candidacy and the people
elected you to office.
But, along with the honor
g oe s a tr em en d o u s
responsibility. The judge not
only hands down the sen­tence,
but he must keep the
trial moving and rule on all
procedural issues. He is
c o n t in u a lly m ak in g
decisions—decisions that
must be impartial and fair,
guided by prior decisions of
the court and by the rules of
procedure. And any of these
rulings to allow or prohibit
evidence to get to the jury
may be questioned on ap­peal.
Correcting abuses in the
appeals system is one of
Hummer’s priorities when
he assumes his seat on the
bench.
“We have a problem in
Pennsylvania, and in the
Federal courts as well, with
the appeals system,”
Hummer said. “An accused
can file pretrial motions and
have them heard and
decided; then go to trial and
file post-trial motions and
have them decided; then
appeal to the superior court,
to the supreme court and
even get into the federal
court if a constitutional issue
is involved.”
When th e a p p e a ls
procedure is exhausted the
accused must serve sen­tence,
but these appeals
often go on for years, with
the accused remaining free
on bail the whole time, he
explained. “He can file a
new appeal about any
grievance he may have,
including questioning the
competency of his attorney.
“Somehow this has to be
consolidated so we don’t
have a defendant who goes
all the way through the
appeals system and then
gets still another bite of the
apple by finding fault with
his attorney.
“ Unfortunate ly, the
taxpayer foots the bill for
most of these appeals, in
addition to having already
paid court costs for the
prosecution of the case.”
Hummer explained that he
would like to see an appeal
procedure where a defen-dent’s
appeal would be
consolidated in one action,
including the question of the
competency of counsel.
With two new judges,
Hummer and Ronald
Buckwalter, the Lancaster
County Courts will be able to
be more efficient in their
administration of justice,
Hummer said.
“It is to the credit of our
existing judges that they
have managed to keep our
court cases current,”
Hummer remarked, adding
that the jury system also
works well in Lancaster
County and some respon­sibility
for this goes to the
judge who imparts a sense of
impartiality to the jurors as
he instructs them on how the
law applies in the case
before them.
Both Hummer and his
wife, Cindy, are natives of
Palmyra, Lebanon County.
After graduating from
Palmyra High School,
Hummer attended Hershey
Junior College and was
graduated from Lebanon
Valley College. He com­pleted
Dickinson Law School
and was admitted to practice
before the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania December,
1962.
The next month he went on
active duty in the Navy,
serving as a law specialist at
the Naval Station in Norfolk,
Va., until May of 1966.
Upon completion of his
military service, Hummer
joined the law firm of
Barley, Snyder Cooper and
Mueller in Lancaster and the
family moved to Lititz.
He went into practise in
1968 and two years later
formed a partnership with
Joseph J . Lombardo.
He was primarily a trial
