Fans get preview
Wildcats look sharp in
scrimmage with Stinnett
Perch rodeo in final week; grand
prizes to be awarded on Monday
Canadian grid fans got their
first preview of the 1962 Wild-
cat football team in action
Tuesday night when the Wild-
cats ran through a brisk two-
hour scrimmage session with
the Stinnett Rattlers.
And when it was over, both
coaches and fans were wear-
ing smiles.
The Wildcat gridders, lack-
ing in experience and not
over-burdened with beef, nev-
ertheless put on a rousing
good show and looked, on the
whole, like a promising outfit.
The scrimmage with the
Rattlers was on even terms
all the way. Each team scored
one "touchdown" ... although
there was no kick-off and no
official scores were kept.
Each team owned the ball
for timed offensive periods,
alternating each ten minutes.
Stinnett scored first, during
their second offensive, when
they broke a halfback loose
for a 35 - yard touchdown
scamper. The Wildcats bounc-
ed back in their next offen-
sive period with a scoring
drive of their own, climaxed
by a 40-yard pass and run
executed by Robert Lewis and
Gordon Rivers.
Defensively the Wildcat
"first" team looked impres-
sively effective against the
heavier Rattler eleven.
John Ramp to
coach at McLean
John Pamp, who taught in
a suburban Dallas county
school last year, has been
named Junior High coach at
MrT,ean high school.
Mr. and Mrs. Ramp moved
to McLean last week to pre-
pare for the opening of the
school term.

As they lined up, the Wild-
cats were featuring Eddie
Conyers at center, Bill Ortega
and Bill Owens at guards,
Roy Yarnold, Rocky Lucas,
and Mike Henderson at tack-
les, Larry Robbs, Jerry Petree,
Wyman Prater and Richard
Pennell at the ends . . . with
Joe Schaef, Gordon Rivers,
Robert Lewis, David Cook and
Bill Grist most prominent in
the backfield formations.
Also showing up as an ef-
fective corner man on de-
fense was one of the smallest
men on the squad, Keith Yar-
nold, who had fans cheering
with some alert defensive
work. So did Larry Robbs and
Eddie Conyers.
New recruits were swelling
the Wildcat ranks at mid-
week, although Coach Ned
Jolly says he is still disap-
pointed in the number of
freshmen reporting.

The Wildcats open the sea-
son at home Friday night of
next week against the Wheel-
er Mustangs, coached by
former Wildcat coach Grady
Burnett.
This is the final week for
the Perch Rodeo at Lake Mar-
vin ... a summer promotion
which has resulted in the re-
moval of more than five thou-
sand perch from the lake
since Memorial Day.
Monday . . . Labor Day . . .
is the final day of the Perch
Rodeo, and the weekly prizes
for the final week will be
awarded Monday afternoon at
5 o'clock, along with the
Grand Prizes for the season.
The Grand Prize for adults
is a set of floaters, for kids a
rod and reel. Kenneth Raines
of Pampa is the front runner
by a wide margin in the race
for the grand prize for adults.
Raines turned in a one-day
catch of 440 perch early in
the season. Front runner in
the kids' division is Carol
Ann West of Pampa whose
string was 125.
Fishing has been slack at
the lake during recent weeks,
according to Concessionnaire
Ray Guaseo. Winner of the
kid's prize for the 13th week
was Roy Beasley of Pampa
with 5 perch. There was no
adult prize.
Last week's winner (14th
week of the contest) was But-
tons Price of Canadian for the
kids with 38 perch; and for
the adults, Rusty Hutcheson
of San Jose, California, who
caught 39.
