West Virginia University's football team will return to Jackson's Mill this fall for pre season drills. New Coach Art Lewis has not set dates but drills are expected to last about two weeks. Last year the squad trained at Camp Greenbrae near Alderson under former Coach Dud DeGroo. A Weirton pitcher Jim Hanna powered a 5 to 3 win over East Bank in Saint Marys, extending his season streak to 10 victories with three RBIs and two hits in four trips. He struck out 10 and limited the opponents to seven hits.
