GNADENHUTTEN - Overcoming a one-point 1st quarter deficit, Dennison's Railroaders (5-1) rallied to outscore Gnadenhutten (3-7) 17 to 6 in the 2nd quarter and waltz on to a victory here Saturday night.  In racking up their 3rd straight triumph, the Railroaders got balanced scoring and reigned on the boards.  Coach Oren Thompson, who inherited only one letterman from last season, said there will be some changes made on the Gnadenhutten squad between now and the next game at Port Washington January 4.  He indicated he will start looking ahead to next year and go with more underclassmen in an effort to get more experience for the youngsters to prevent another meek start in 1963.  John Neighbor and Nick Cummings, who paced the attack for Coach Tom Conner, also were the big men on the boards.  They scored 15 and 16 points, respectively.  Fred Lecce chimed in with 13.  Veteran Bruce Kohl led theIndians with 13 points, the only Gnaden performer in double digits.  Gnadenhutten shot poorly from the field, hitting only 14 of 58 attempts for 24 percent.  Dennison hit on 22 of 52 for 42 percent.  A total of 34 personals were called, 20 against Gnaden.  The Dennison Reserves also put down the Gnadenhutten Reserves (3-6) 40-32.
