TUSCARAWAS - The Broncos (2-0) (2-4) have done it again  It appears as if the Tuscarawas Broncos had better stick with Tuscarawas County League opponents during the 1961-1962 season.  They handed arch-rival Gnadenhutten (1-1) (4-2) a convincing 15 point loss.  Both wins for the Broncos have been over league opponents.  Last week, they handed rugged Garaway its only loss of the season 66-54.  Neither team could hit for much of an average either on field goals or fouls.  Tusky canned only 28 of 62 action flings for 22.2 percent and 20 of 32 fouls, while Gnaden potted 21 of 58 action flings for 17.6 percent and 19 of 30 charity tosses.  Four men hit in double figures in the Bronco surge, led by Fred Burmich with 20, Russ McGlothlin with 15, Bob Romig with 14 and Phil Meese with 10.  Bob Ervin waxed hot for the Tribe to take game honors as he burned the cords for 12 of 16 action shots and 10 of 12 charity flings for 34 points.  The Tuscarawas Reserves (3-3) started the night off by knocking off the Gnadenhutten Reserves (2-4) 48-32.
