Harper 52
Cranfills Gap 6
Bi-district Champions
for 1991!! Harper played
its way to a victory
last Friday night against
The Gap and stopped the
game on the 45-point
rule with 9:14 left in
the fourth quarter.
The first score came
with just under 2 minutes
left in the first quar-
ter with a pass from Da-
vid Kunz to Scott Fied-
ler of 20 yards, Scott’s
first TD of the year.
The score stood 6-0 at
the end of the first
quarter because the wind
carried Shawn Spaeth’s
point after kick in a
totally different direc-
tion than planned.
In the second quarter,
Justin Esquell scored
the first of three TD’s
for the night on a 12
yard run. The next came
on a 29-yard run with
Shawn Spaeth kicking
both extra points. The
score stood at 22-0 at
half.
Justin started the quar-
ter's score with an 18-
yard run before the de-
fense got in the act
with a score. David Kunz
intercepted a pass from
The Gap and ran for 60
yards to a touchdown.
Cranfills Gap scored
their only touchdown in
the third quarter, but
the point after was
blocked, leaving the
score 38-6 before Joe
Montoya ran 50 yards on
a sweep to tack on more
points.
Jason Kramer finished
the game in the fourth
quarter when he crossed
the goal line on a 20-
yard run.
Harper was only penalized
once in the entire game
and Raul Robles led in
tackles for the defense.
Harper will face Trini-
dad in the Area contest
this coming Friday, at
Evant, at 7:30 PM. The
final 16 teams are now
lining up—
Trinidad is 11-0 on the
season and beat Aquilla
51-6 in their contest
last Friday.
Just as a side note—
in regular playing sea-
sons, Harper is the
southernmost school
playing 6-man football
and Trinidad is the
easternmost school.

The Roman Empire was the
greatestthe world has
ever seen, lasing over
500 years. Its strength
came primarily from two
things: 1) Roman law and
justice, and 2) the Ro-
man legions. The Roman
foot-soldier, the G.I.
of his day, was one of
the best fighting men
the world has ever seen.
This was due to the firm
discipline in which he
was trained and his
skill in using the short
two-edged sword in close
in-fighting. He kept it
razor sharp and could
wield it with deadly
efficiency.
This figure of the two-
edged sword is used by
the author of Hebrews
in 4:12 as a symbol of
the Scriptures. He re-
minds us that God’s
Word, His Scriptures,
can sometimes cut us to
the quick. We are read- "
ing a passage, say from
the Gospels—when sud-
denly it strikes us.
This fits us to the tee.
God’s Word is not some-
things we can trifle
with or ignore, if we
take our religion ser-
iously. If we are open
to its message, it can
be alive and active
down to the very marrow
of our being. If we allow
Him, God can speak to us
each day through His \
living Word. Often
other books are just
dead print, but the
Bible can scrutinize the
unspoken thoughts and
hidden conceptions of -brv-
us all.
jl
Yet the two-edged sword
in the wrong hands can
do great harm. God is the
God of love and we must
not use His holy Word
to vent our anger and
revenge. Neither does
He, intend for us to play
a kind of Scriptural
roulette by just picking
texts at random by which
to guide our lives. The
Bible must be understood
as a whole and interpre-
ted with common sense —
and the long understand-
ing of the Christian
church.
