I thought I read someplace that Walt Harris did cover a few early 60's 49er & Raider games like during the exhibition season before regular season & taken over by Network television. Exhibition games like today covered by Independent Stations back then which of course employed Walt Harris who also did morning news @ that early time of television.
I used to wacth every saturday , its time to gring roller dreby banked track back theres a whole new crowed out there , wounder if they would let the skaters text
Watch villain Jan Vallow pound villain Sandy Dunn starting at 5:55. I watched Golden Girl Joan Weston knock Sandy senseless every week on TV back in 1972-73. Joan was on the Pioneers and Sandy was on the Chiefs.
Donnie Hagy Even though Jan Vallow was the villain, she was a tremendous jammer/blocker, and very strong, but Joanie Weston matched her strength and gotten her clock cleaned by Joanie most of the time.
@@donniehagy970 Joanie bested Sandy Dunn MANY times, especially when they played in the Chicago area, where the Pioneers were the home team. And I saw Joanie beat Sandy in several match races at MSG in person.
I always loved watching Jan Vallow she was always one of my favorites even though if she was a villain I love Joan Weston but I think Vallow had an edge on all of them she was just out right Junkyard dog tough
The Jolters had the youngest squad in the league @ the time they definitely needed veteran Jammers to add to it's depth & got it with Eddie Krebs & Barbara Baker Krebs added to the team after the departure of Larry Smith & Francine Cochu. Too bad Eddie Krebs didn't last long & it really put a lot of pressure on 1st year Skaters Charlie Gipson, Mike Moore, Robert Graves, & Ted Taucher to learn quickly. All 4 had a promising career had the original Seltzer IRDL not had folded later that Winter. As for the woman's field not much credit was given to Rose Duran either for carrying a lot of the load till Barbara Baker arrived to help. Interesting to note too the Red Devils & Jolters often borrowed a lot of the same Skaters for both red shirt teams.
I miss my beloved Cincinnati Jolters, deeply saddened when they became a fulltime red shirt team, and couldn't help thinking what if had they skated home games at the then-Riverfront Coliseum, now Heritage Bank Center when it opened......
@@user-fg2ls9js8g: Our beloved Jolters skated here in Cin City (Cincinnati, OH) USA during the original IRDL's '71/'72 Eastern Season, becoming a full-time red shirt team from the '72 Western Season onward until they closed down in December, 1973......
The videos are now in public domain. Only a few programs are still around. Please reference goldenclassictv (Jim Witt) since I remastered the video .This version is mine.
Amy: I know it's a little late for an answer, but if you're still working on your project, I suggest you look at some videos on here from Mark Roman (Tony Roman's dad). He has TONS of information about Roller Derby!
West Coast Roller Games was terrible - glamour and glitz. East coast skaters were athletes. Even the east coast roller games was far superior with the Philadelphia Warriors. I've lived on the west coast for a long time and when I hear people longing for the T-Birds, I always think, you have no idea what you're talking about.
My friend Cathy and I went to all the roller derby games at Commack Arena and Nassau Coliseum. Great memories of John Early and Larry Lee.
Soo enjoyable, really miss it, after spending 7 years, mostly on the road!!
I loved seeing Jan Vallow working well with Barbara Baker, Rose Duran, and Pam Canneva ❤️🤘🏾❤️🤘🏾❤️🤘🏾❤️
Walt Harris was an outstanding play by play announcer who actually turned down NFL jobs to work roller derby.

There was nobody like Walt! Grew up listening to him!!
RIP
P Brickley Walt was the best even Elmer Anderson had to take a backseat to Walt.
Some would call Walt the Gordon Solie of Roller Derby, but some would join me in referring to Gordon as the Walt Harris of pro wrestling!

I LOVE ROLLER DERBY

You know, that's really odd. I didn't like Sandy Dunn at all, but I NEVER saw Weston best her in a fight! Oh, and I LOVED Jan Vallow!
Donnie Hagy Even though Jan Vallow was the villain, she was a tremendous jammer/blocker, and very strong, but Joanie Weston matched her strength and gotten her clock cleaned by Joanie most of the time.

@@kennyroyal8572 Yes; and it's even harder to believe they were best of friends OFF the banked track!!
@@NYRNGR1 Thanks for your reply. I didn't say Joanie never beat Dunn, just that I never saw one match where she did!
The Jolters seem to use a lot of strategic blocking, they took the early lead. God bless everyone :)
2020
No clue how they score but I saw some crazy low blows on this even Ric FLAIR was yellin Whooooooooooo
I always loved watching Jan Vallow she was always one of my favorites even though if she was a villain I love Joan Weston but I think Vallow had an edge on all of them she was just out right Junkyard dog tough
Mark: Believe it or not, Joanie Weston trained Jan Vallow...AND...off the track, they were BEST friends!!

RalphD1957 - You couldn't have watched Joan Weston knock Sandy Dunn senseless every week since they didn't skate against each other every week. 😕

It was a broken nose
Does anyone know the final score?
Chiefs won on final play.
Why is everyone constantly taking off their helmets?
More L.A THUNDERBIRDS
No, thanks. I hated Roller Games.....pure buffoonery....a circus-like atmosphere. To me, they ruined the name of Roller Derby!
