The Riley boys are at it again. This time another generation. When the "White Plains Plainsmen," Westchester's entry in the Met Junior Hockey Association, found themselves in last place in their pursuit of a playoff berth, they sought a little outside help. The first night that Jack Riley's boys, Jay and Mark, came down from West Point, Jay got one goal and three assists and Mark had three assists in their 5 to 2 win. Several nights later, young Jay, emulating his famous father and uncles, slammed in six goals as White Plains clobbered the Jets of Comack 12 to 3. Jack, as you know, is the hockey coach at West Point.
