The Wharton County
Junior College Pioneers
upped their record to 3-0
Saturday when they
topped Navarro 35 19 in
Corsicana.
The Pioneers took over
the game in the first
quarter when they
mounted a great goal-line
stand at their one-yard
line.
WCJC stopped the
Bulldogs four times from
that close range, took
possession of the ball and
marched 99 yards to their
first score. They never
relinquished that lead.
“There’s nothing that
will demoralize a team or
pick up another team like
a goal-line stand,” WCJC
Coach Carman Bonner
said adding that the
defensive effort was “the
turning point of the
game. The whole defense
was in the middle of it.”
It took the Pioneers
only 13 plays to march
the length of the field as
tailback Joey Harris
culminated the drive with
a nine-yard touchdown
run. Harris picked up 110
yards in the game and
leads the Texas Junior
College Football Con-
ference with 421 yards.
The touchdown was
Harris’ third of the
season.
Harris’ runningmate,
Mike Guidry, scored
WCJC’s second touch-
down when he blasted
five yards in the the
second quarter for a
touchdown.
Although Navarro also
scored in the second
quarter to move within
nine points at haltime.
The Pioneers took over
the contest in the third
period, however when
Bonner had his troops
borrow a page from Don
Shula's Miami Dolphins
fur a “flea flicker
touchdown.
Quarterback Rene
Sanchez started the play
with an eight-yard pass to
Dale Fife who in turn
pitched to Franky
Johnson. The WCJC
wingback then sped 35
yards for the touchdown
The Pioneers scored
again in the third quarter
after safety Chester Ray
recovered a fumble at the
33 yard line to set Up a
nine-yard Cercy Greer
touchdown run. Harris
had a 10-yard run on the
drive and Sanchez and
Fife connected for 14
more yards.
Sanchez passed to Fife
for 50 yards in the game.
The sophomore signal
caller completed seven of
11 passes for 104 yards.
Dale Benditz and Ken
Thomas were favorite
receivers of Sanchez'
before he left in the game
in the fourth quarter in
favor of Larry Shoppa
and Mike Payne
Payne scored WCJC’s
final touchdown from the
one-yard line after Ken
Ford came up with an
interception at the
Navarro 18. A 17-yard
Guidry run set up
Payne’s touchdown.
Tim Horvath had a
field goal from 35-yards
out, a 32.8 punting
average and two extra-
points.
The Pioneers will
return home Saturday,
Oct. 2 to face Henderson
County Junior College at
Tiger Stadium. The
Cardinals have a 1-2
record after « 24 23 loss
Saturday to Kilgore, the
nation’s top-ranked
junior college team.
Henderson features a
potent passing attack.
Ricebirds—
(Continued From Pg. l-B)
continue on defense. Both teams employ a 5-2 align
ment with five players stationed on he line and two at
linebacker. Santa Fe starts an all-senior defensive
line that has helped hold St. Thomas, Hitchcock and
Wharton to just one touchdown.
Richard Longmire, Steve Aymes (210), Tracey
Bear, Foss and Joe Raitano (190) have been tough up
front while Matejka has not letup from his outstan-
ding performance a year ago. Safety David Ober has
also looked very good this season.
“Our defense has played well,” Jamail said. “We
still have a lot of improving to do but I’m pleased with
the defense so far.
“We have a lot of confidence in ourselves and it’s
going to be a good matchup.”

Coal helps control
rising fuel costs
And when fuel costs are lower, so are your electricity bills.
Moreover, thanks to modern technology, coal is clean-burning:
the flue gas released from CPL’s coal-fired plant is 99.5%
clean.
Last year, Coleto Creek Power Station generated about one-
quarter of the electricity used by our customers. The cost of
the coal burned at Coleto Creek was two-thirds the cost of the
natural gas used at our other plants.
In the years ahead, coal will assume an even bigger role in
providing power for South Texas as CPL builds and shares in
additional coal-fired units. By relying on this dependable and
cost-efficient fuel, we make sure you will
continue to have an adequate supply of
electricity at the lowest possible cost.
