- Walt Harris is there for all the thrills and spills. He;s backed up by Jerry Seltzer at track side.
The program is from the summer of 1973. I checked with KTVU 2 and their transmitter was replaced with a better one in the summer of 1973.
Its amazing to see Joanie Weston a Pioneer skater. Always will be a Bay Bomber golden girl.
Love Joanie Weston
RIP Walt Harris- great doing both roller derby and wrestling...
Charlie knew exactly what to do in every jam thank you Charlie
Joanie weston made the game worth watching I've seen her in person at the Cincinnati Gardens
I agree. Watched her and Charlie tons at the Cow Palace in SF. Great times with my sister.
Sad to see Jerry Seltzer knew ahead of time too that this was going to be the last interleague series between the Chicago Pioneers & Los Angeles Thunderbirds
I love to see Charlie O'Connell go out on the jam he's awesome
Rio bravo
Ahh, back in the good ole' days when we could use words like gal and beauties with no questions asked. Now everything is zur and zee and bullshit like that.
I love to see Joan Weston go out on the jam
Thanks for the info. I'm glad you have a better copy. I taped this off a satellite channel many years ago. This version is better quality than my original VHS tape. Future roller derby copies, when possible, will be added in the HD 1080p format. I can do more this way as long as the original source is in good shape.

I loved Roller Derby
thank you for posting these vids !
Thanks 4 turning the clock back ..
I LOVE REMEMBER IN PUERTO RICO TV ,
Judy Sowenski&the Philadelphia Warriors were the team to beat in mid 1970's in the Roller Derby!!!
The Warriors had an allstar lineup, Sowinski, Arnold, Rosetta Saunders and Delores Tucker
My Dear Miss Agnes: Neither Sowenski nor the Warriors skated in ROLLER DERBY in the 70s. They skated in that mickey mouse league, a/k/a roller games. Besides that, Judy Arnold was the star female skater for the Warriors, not Sowenski.
@@JJN259 I was always under the impression that Judy Arnold was the "star" skater (women's) for the Warriors.
@@JJN259 Thanks, Joe. I did not know that. I thought Judy Arnold skated well up until the 80s!
Charlie meant business and I love him
Charlie O was the best he was very serious about playing the game he was the Boss
I waited to see this on tv. New stuff isn’t derby
💯agree!
Modern roller derby is a joke compared to this.
I completely agree!
I love to see Joan Weston go out on a jam
You said that already.
THE Philadelphia Warriors, THE BEST
I agree.
Jerry lost it again. Wasn't Bob Hein that Tony Roman dumped behind the referee's backs. It was Larry Smith after a jam.
Women's Roller Derby and GLOW were 2 of the best thing I seen when I was a kid.
*GLOW- Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling.
LOVE, Loved< Joan Weston, she was roller derby !
Tony Roman was a good jammer
the skaters of today CANNOT SKATE
Amen! Most are concerned with some "catchy" name. Plus, they skate on a FLAT TRACK and still can't even stand up! Ridiculous scores in the 200s. Whoever heard the like? Skaters like Weston, Calvello, Dunn, Lydia Clay, Reed--just to name a few--would mop the floor with these clowns!
Actually, Roller Derby peaked in the 1960's, became silly in the '70's. Wish they had vids of the 1960's games. Those were good! Way more skill demonstrated.
So true!! The roller derby skaters today cannot match the talents of Joannie Weston, Delores Tucker, Sherry Erich, Jan Vallow, Charlie O’Connell, Bill Groll, JoJo Statford, Bob Hein, BJ Petersen, Carol Meyer, Tony Roman, Francine Cochu, Diane Syverson, Skinny Minnie Gwen Miller, Patsy Delgado, etc. They’re the true icons of roller derby and cannot be replaced...God Bless them all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
These skaters were real athletes...just to ski
The girls of today are way cuter but no where near as vicious as these gals were back in the day. This, I would pay to watch live.
And, thus, the problem. What they call "the Derby" nowadays, is an absolute joke and not worth watching. I can only imagine what the likes of Calvello, Weston, Vallow, Dunn, Lydia Clay, Kathy Reid, Rosetta Saunders, Delores Tucker, or Margie Laslow would have done against these "pretty girls".
Great game!
Does anyone know the 2020 roller derby schedule??? Thanks.
Just wonderin', when did the pioneers change their uniforms???
Late 1973 before Jerry Seltzer's IRDL folded. The claim were these uniforms were well worn though only 2 years old to me. Still looked in decent condition after all they were reused a few years later. Only a few uniforms looked a bit tattered.
I remember their original uniforms (I think they were either blue and white or blue and grey). Then (for quite a while) the wore the red/white/and blue uniforms, before going to that garish yellow and red.
Weston should have skater on the mens team.
This is Roller derby. Not the b.s they came out with called flat track with no embankment or rail. To bad they ruined the game. Wanted the original version to come back.
Love it at 23:50 when after she beat Joan she gives Candy Jones a shot too. Laid her out.
mma on skates
Anyone remember the halftime GRUDGE MATCHES?
Dan: I remember hearing Roller GAMES talk about their match races. It wasn't until recently that I learned Roller DERBY even had them!! I saw several games (with Derby) and NEVER saw a match race!
Debbie Cho could NOT skate.
For a rookie she did pretty well.
Makes 2 of us. I was never all that impressed by her either.
@@georgegong6813 I always thought she was mediocre at this point in her career... I often wondered if she got better with time.... I did not see any Roller Derby after it closed down... ALSO ... I was never too impressed with Candy Jones... I often wondered if Derby would have continued if these 2 gals would have been rather impressive skaters... Though after watching this game I was somewhat impressed with Candy Jones....
@@MrPete60441 Yes she was just OK for a new rookie mind you. However Sherry Erich, Rose Duran, Catherine Shaw, many got the best of her over the years. Sandy Dunn tried using her as a backup later on the Jolters didn't do all that well there either. Very overplayed if you ask me. Candy Jones on the other hand was spunky though she really put on the pounds later made a gallant return with the Jolters as well. Though being off for awhile & that weight didn't help. I always wondered @ the time period of this game where Darlene Forbes, Janet Earp, & Sue Neibauer were? Heard recently Candy Jones pass away sadly. May she RIP. Debbie Cho as well I believe passed some time ago. May she also RIP
😄
I am so glad derby isn't like this anymore.
The old Roller Derby may had taken a bit of liberties if you will. Though sorry the current game does nothing for me @ all. Takes skill to skate on a banked track. Even to perform some to the stunts these Skaters did. Sorry what I've seen on CZcams current Skaters always do so out of bounds of the track. Most stumble & very difficult to make out the Jammer. Finally the play stops way too much with too many rules. Meant to be a simple game period. Yes this Roller Derby not all the rules may had been enforced for sake of television. Though try viewing earlier Derby games which can also be viewed on CZcams of the past, yes you will see real skill. Oh I also roller, incline, & yes ice skate as well.
Totally agree..I've been wanting to go check out the derby we've got here in Detroit, but haven't made it yet..Glad I saw some on CZcams--I don't think I'll be partaking! This stuff today is tttoooo ssslllooowww..Give me the old stuff ANYDAY!!
Yes got to witness one @ the Fairgrounds in Sacramento. A demo event that sorry did nothing for me @ all! Even if it was yes part of the admission!
You mean, drawing more than 10,000 spectators in major arenas??
Ono way in hell could the girl's teams get a tenth of the crowds derby got. Largest was 52,000.
This was one of the poorest games I've ever seen skated by Bomber men. They were completely disorganized; instead of O'Connell running his mouth on the infield, he should have been more involved skating wise. They looked pitiful.
