Harris and Dooley Feud No.1 (4345 words)
Les Dooley was on horseback, chasing Bill Harris, also mounted, down the hill, firing at Bill from a Winchester rifle as rapidly as he could pump the weapon.
Bill Dooley, with a revolver in each hand, seeing no more live Harris boys for targets, was shooting bullets into the corpse of Wes Harris and stamping the upturned face, while the aged mother of the dead man sat by, fanning flies from the blood-smeared features.
Bill said that he and Wes had made arrangements to go to the Indian Territory and take up claims; and were to start a few days after the picnic of August 4.
Former DelVal coach lands at La Salle (phillyBurbs.com) (487 words)
Bill Dooley has gone from working at a suburban NCAA Division III men's basketball program to an urban, Division I team in the heart of the big city - and he did not even have to move from his Warrington home.
Dooley was the coach at DelVal from 1998 to 2000 and then coached the Irish National Team for two years before returning in 2002.
Dooley is glad he does not have to pull his kids out of school and move to pursue his coaching career, something that usually goes with the vagabond-type life of a college coach.
