By hanging around the tables, he developeda nice relationship with Ed Murray, who took an interest in him, and taight him some of the fine points of the game. He began to improve to the point where he began entering local tournaments. At age 14, he won his first trophy. Since there were few tournaments on a local basis, his need for competition was not being met. But a meeting with Tom Monaski, the organizer of the Pennsylvania State Pool Championships, encouraged him to enter the State pool championship. He placed ninth in his first 9-ball championships, and that taste of victory got him eager for more. He began playing tournaments in New York, Ohio and even Las Vegas.

INDUCTEE Coach Charlie Karlow looked like a prizefighter, but his interests were much deeper and much more varied than just sports. Apparently, this was noticeable at an early age because his 1929 yearbook says, “None, by himself, is his parallel”. He was a man who coached, played, ran tournaments, and then was able to go home and build a house all by himself. After a fine career in high school in all three sports-football, basketball, and track- he earned a full scholarship to Albright University. His senior year there, he co-captained the team along with Stan Hino of Shenandoah. He also lettered in track, participated in the weight events. When he came to Mount Carmel High School in 1953, he continued to coach football and basketball, and, in addition, ran intra-mural programs in volleyball and basketball, Coach Karlow had a broken nose that had never been fixed, which gave him the look of the tough guy that central casting might have chose. But he spoke five languages, played guitar, mandolin, piano, organ, accordion, harmonica; was a super dancer, swimmer and diver, and a horseshoe champion. Mostly, he was a great guy who was a lot of fun, and made an indelible impression on a whole generation of high school kids.

INDUCTEE Bill was born in Locust Gap, one of seven children of William and Mary Beierschmitt. At Bradely High School in Locust Gap, he was a starter on the football, basketball and track teams for three years. He played halfback in football and forward in basketball. AS a sophomore, he led Mount Carmel Township to a victory over a bigger Mount Carmel Area team. As a sophomore, he also was a first place winner in a long jump, in a meet which later became the district championships. After high school, he went to Beckley Business College in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and graduated from that institution in 1931. He became a Director of Athletics of Kulpmont High School in 1932 and remained in that position until the jointure with Mount Carmel in 1964. He coached Kulpmont High School basketball for 11 seasons, compiling 134 wins and a 55 loss record. Five of the 11 years as Coach, he took the Wildcats to the District IV playoffs. Two of those times, his teams reached the finals. This is quite an achievement when you consider that all teams played in one classification, and Kulpmont’s enrollment was among the smallest. He teams won three league championships, including the Susquehanna Valley League and Keystone League Championships in both 1941 and 1944. Tom Brennan, who was then editor of the News-Item and a Kulpmont High School alum himself, commented on his ability as a basketball coach: “Even though Bill Beierschmitt’s abilities as a basketball coach are overshadowed by the creative accomplishments of his friends Mike Terry and George Wrona’s football powerhouses, his court teams were feared from Altoona to Scranton, and it was Bill Beierschmitt who was responsible for making Kulpmont a basketball hotbed.” Bill Beierschmitt joined the Mount Carmel Area faculty in September 1965, and died shortly thereafter in December 1965. He is survived by his wife, the former Ruth Dempsey, and three daughters, Joan, Ruth and Louise.

In football, he was at his best when the going was toughest as in the famous game against Shenandoah at Lost Creek/. This is the game which made the Tornadoes the champions of the Eastern Conference. Even though he was hurt, he played an outstanding game against the big, tough Shenandoah team that featured the likes of Ed Katalinas and Bobby Nork. Fortunately, he recovered in time to help Mount Carmel win the State championship against Bellefonte in a game at Penn State. Al and Jim Morrison, who was previous inductee, were the leading receivers of quarterback Mike Terry on the team.

INDUCTEE Ray Green was an unusual high school athlete. Even though he was short and strong, which made him a natural lineman, he was versatile enough to run the mile on some very good track teams. He was an outstanding high school athlete, who received a football scholarship to attend Bucknell University. He was a starting guard as a sophomore. Against St. Thomas University, he blocked a punt, picked it up and ran it in for a touchdown, which gave Bucknell a 12-6 victory. As a result of that victory, Bucknell was chosen to play in the first Orange Bowl game in 1935. AS a college senior, he was selected to play in the college all-star game against the Philadelphia Eagles. One of his teammates was Vince Lombardi. Ray returned to Mount Carmel to work and began his coaching career at Mount Carmel Catholic. His Mount Carmel Catholic teams were known for their hard hitting tough brand of football. He later moved to Mount Union coached there for a short period, then returned to Minersville where his teams were perennial conference contenders. He was one of 13 children of hard working parents. Like so many others, his only opportunity to get out of the coal region was to capitalize on his athletic ability. So when the opportunity to play under Coach Carl Snavely at Bucknell presented itself, he was willing to do whatever it took. He paid for his meals by digging coal on weekends, and then bartering the coal for food at the College Inn in Lewisburg. Ray Green is presently enjoying retirement at his home in Hegins, Pa.
