Weirton Red Riders face Steubenville clash for playoff berth
The Weirton Red Riders must win at Steubenville to secure a Class A playoff berth against Milton. Weirton, coming off a 25-7 win over Parkersburg, aims to close regular season with a spotless record as the scholastic football spotlight tightens around Northern Panhandle. The Class B picture remains unsettled with Elizabeth and Huntington Vinson leading but dependent on week’s results and White Sulphur Springs scenarios. West Virginia University struggles with blocking and passer support as Texas Western outgains them 325 total yards. WVU rallies but falls 19-13, while Jim Banter stands out on defense.

Big Babe Ruth Stadium Dream Becoming Baltimore Nightmare
Baltimore long hoped Municipal Stadium would be world class yet it remains a mix of new concrete and old wood. Since 1944 debates over rebuilding or replacing the 27‑year‑old wooden horseshoe on 33rd Street have dominated city politics. Voters balked at another loan, lawsuits blocked plans, and work proceeds in fits with 12,900 seats built and more planned, leaving the venue precariously named for Babe Ruth while serving Navy, Notre Dame, and the Baltimore Colts in fits of national attention.
