MIKE LEAKS (41) breaks through for good yardage as Hornet defenders
Keith Barker (82), Gene Gunstanson (70), and Jeff Harraid (85) close in
for the stop.
MICKEY WILLIAMS (40) is stacked up at the line of scrimmage by a host
of Ennis Lions led by Steve Moore (14) with Billy Novotny (64), George
Smith (65), and Forrest Roberts (80) closing in.

or at least it appeared that way.
Gary Lillie fell on a loose
Hornet fumble at the Athens 28
yard line but stalled at the 20.
The Hornets could not control
the ball , and had to punt the
ball back to the Lions with 1:17
remaining in the game. The
Lions had good field position at
the Hornet 45, but got no further
tffan the 18 as the game ended
leaving the Lions on the short
end, 1266.
Mike Johnson led the Hornet
ground attack with 80 yards on
19 carries. Ricky Hardin
completed 3 of 7 passes for 80
yards to lead the Hornet attack.
Joe Perkins, Chris McCool,
John Dora, and Roy Andrews
lead the Hornet defense that
appeared a bit porous at times.
They tended to bend a little, but
never break.
The Lions had good offensive
punch but it was between the 30
yard lines. The Lions out first
downed Athens 19-9 and out
total offensed Athens 306-214.
Mike Leaks lead the Lions
ground attack with 91 yards on
23 carries and a TD. Troy Vyers
had a good game as he started
his first varsity contest hitting 9
of 24 passes for 115 yards. Vyers
output could have looked more
impressive, but some of his
seceivers had a bad case of the
dropsies.
The Hornets managed only 9
1st downs as the Lions put up a
strong defense except for about
4 splays. The front four of
Forrest Roberts, George Smith,
Charles Franklin and John Paul
Monreal stacked up the Hornets
on numerous occasions, they
were backed up by Mark Gant,
Billy Novotny and Ronnie Greer
at the linebackers, and Ira
Fields, Chess Hobbs, Steve
Moore, and Kevin Leaks in the
secondary.
• For a 1st game it was vir-
tually free of mistakes as there
were no interceptions, only 3
lost fumbles and just 8 penalties
called for the entire game. Gary
Lillie claimed the lone Lion
fumble recovery.
Game at a Glance
Though the slenderest of
women may claim she has
no muscles at all, she actual-
ly has 620 of them. So has
the brawniest of weight
lifters. But despite the fact
that these voluntary muscles
make up somewhere around
40 percent of everybody’s
body weight, few people
know how they work and
how to take good care
of them.
Every muscle is a sepa-
rate organ with its own
nerve supply, function and
place in the body. But al-
though each muscle is inde-
pendent, no muscle works
alone. Every muscle gets its
messages from the brain
and needs -nerve impulses
and other connected mus-
cles to operate.
Sometimes a condition
called muscle fatigue occurs
when waste products are
left after intense or pro-
longed muscle activity. This
waste matter cannot be re-
moved fast enough and an
unpleasant sensation results.
One product physicians of-
ten recommend for tempo-
rary relief from minor mus-
cular aches is a non-aspirin
pain reliever Tylenol® an-
algesic tablets, which are
generally regarded as avoid-
ing problems sometimes en-
countered with aspirin.
Along with the analgesic,
relief comes with heat, rest
and gentle massage.
Voluntary muscles are
among the few organs of the
body which can be educat-
ed. Enormous skills—from
lifting heavy weights to play-
ing the piano with speed
and accuracy—can be devel-
oped with practice.
That’s why the brawny
muscle man and the delicate
woman may look very dif-
ferent, but share the same
620 muscles. He worked
to develop his muscles for
bulging strength; she didn’t
and instead ended up with
litheness and grace.
The Battle of Moores Creek,
North Carolina, was the open-
ing engagement of the
Revolutionary War in the south,
and is often called the Lex-
ington and Concord of the south.
Here on Feb. 27,1776, a force of
1,500 loyalist militia attacked a
patriot force of about 1,000 men
under Col. James Moore, en-
trenched on Moores Creek. The
patriots turned back the loyalist
assault and subsequently cap-
tured or dispersed the entire
loyalist command. The action
bolstered patriot morale and
strengthened the movement for
independence. The British,
moreover, abandoned their
plans for conquering the
southern colonies and did not
resume major operations in the
south until late in the war, The
World Almanac notes.

Texas Rights to Petroleum
In Question with Senate Bill
Can Texas keep gas produced from
state leases within the state in times of
shortage? Recent legislation, which
gave the Texas Railroad Commission
responsibility for determining when
there are shortages and when transpor-
tation of such gas out of state should be
prevented, may be challenged in the
future.
In a recent interview with Petroleum
Engineer Magazine, Jim Langdon,
chairman of Texas Railroad Commis-
sion, said there is a strong question of
the bill’s constitutionality. “The courts
might consider it as a restraint of com-
merce. But the bill would rely on the
sovereignty of the state. Texas has re-
tained its state lands and presumably
the profits and income derived from
them.
“Oil and gas in the public domain of
the State of Texas is reserved for the
benefit of the state,” Langdon em-
phasized.
The Texas bill could be a hedge
against U.S. Senate bill 692 and any
other legislation designed to control in-
trastate gas. Langdon called this bill
unconstitutional and said it presents a
real threat to states rights. "We will
contest any federal legislation attempt-
ing to assert any jurisdiction over intra-
state gas or commerce."
Target of the federal bill, Langdon
said, is oil or gas discovered on federal
leases located in producing states. Gas
or oil on these leases would be con-
sidered in interstate commerce. Much
of it is produced in states heavily im-
pacted with federal lands, Indian lands
in Oklahoma and other states including
New Mexico. Wyoming, Montana and
Colorado, Langdon said.
“What most people fail to realize,"
said the Railroad Commission chair-
man, “is that the whole economy of
Texas is based on oil and gas and it is
the only indigenous fuel used in this
area." He said the Commission is con-
ducting a survey to determine all con-
sumers in the state who are using gas
under boilers. The study will determine
what alternate capacity these customers
have and, if none, how long it will take
to develop such capacity. “Down the
line we must find better uses for nat-
ural gas other than for combustion
purposes."

New Book Is
Published
I Believe, autobiography of
Baylor University head football
coach Grant Teaff, is being
published by Word Books,
publisher, Waco.
Grant Teaff took over at
Baylor in 1972, working with a
team that hadn’t known a
winning season in more than a
decade. In three years, he
guided Baylor to its first South-
west Conference championship
in fifty years and took top
coaching honors across the
nation.
A coach recognized for his
personal interest in his students
and staff alike and respected for
the self-motivation he instills in
•those who hear him speak,
Teaff has traveled the United
States since coming to Baylor.
He appears about 200 times
each year in high schools,
colleges and universities,
coaching clinics, conventions,
sales meetings and churches.
I Believe, written with Sam
Blair, is a book that will move
you swiftly from laughter to
tears, as Teaff shares personal
feelings, his pride in players’
achievements and victories, his
pain in defeat, why “I believe”
is the secret of his success.
Blair is sports editor for the
Dallas Morning News. His
writing has brought him
national awards and his byline
has appeared in Sporting News,
Sport, Pro Quarterback and
many other publications.
the eight winningest teams in
the country--Notre Dame (1),
Penn State (2), Nebraska (3),
Alabama (4), Tennessee (6),
Texas (8)--have made a total of
13 appearances .in the Cotton
Bowl. No other bowl has at-
tracted so many highly-rated
teams in the same period. Over
that same span seven of the
eleven winningest coaches have
brought their teams here, four
of them in two or more games:
Penn State’s Joe Paterno,
Alabama’s Bear Bryant, Notre
Dame’s Ara Parseghian and
Texas’ Darrell Royal six years
in a row.
Penn State defeated Baylor,
41-20 in the 1975 classic.

Vacation For Hay Fever
Sufferers
Hay fever can be as
troublesome as a severe head
cold at times, and although
the condition is usually asso-
ciated with fall ragweed, it
can occur through much of
the year.
Many hay fever sufferers
arrange to take their vaca-
tions during the height of the
hay fever season that causes
the most problems for them.
They seek areas where the
pollen count is reported to be
low.
States in the U.S. having
a low pollen count include
parts of Alabama, Arizona,
California, Colorado, Florida,
Hawaii, Idaho, Maine, Mich-
igan, Minnesota, Montana,
Nevada, New Hampshire,
New York, Oregon, Utah,
Vermont, Washington, Wyo-
ming, Puerto Rico, the Virgin
Islands. Nearby Canada and
Mexico are also listed among
the low pollen areas.
Modern research in the al-
lergy field began around the
turn of the century. There
are now injections of desensi-
tizing ragweed extract that
help some sufferers if taken
in time, and a relatively new
drug for asthma that has been
found useful in some cases of
hay fever as a prophylactic.
There are medications to alle-
viate symptoms. The more
common of these, sneezing
and stuffed-up runny nose,
can usually be relieved with
an antihistamine-decongest-
ant nasal spray such as NTZ.
Or, the physician may recom-
mend a tablet with a similar
combination, or other thera-
pies.
Hay fever is a reaction to
pollen from three principal
sources: trees and bushes pol-
linating in the spring; grasses
and weeds pollinating in the
summer; and particularly, rag-
weed in the fall.

HOW TO BREAK BAD HABITS
PHILADELPHIA - The
college football season opened
Saturday in a night game,
number Six Penn State met
underdog Temple at
Philadelphia’s Franklin Field.
The two Pennsylvania teams
haven’t met in football since
1952. Penn State Coach Joe
Paterno says Wayne Hardin has
done a great job of building the
Temple Football team.
Penn State is the only
member of the top ten
scheduled for action Saturday
night.
BEAUMONT - Students at
Vidor High School in Beaumont
are happy. Their football team
snapped the longest current
high school football losing
streak in Texas last night when
the squad downed Beaumont
Forrest Park High School 10 to
. Vidor had been without a
regular season victory for four
seasons. Last night’s victory
gives the school a one victory,
40 losses and one tie record for
the past 42 games.
Apple a Day?
National spending on health
care leaped from $80 to $395 per
person over the last two
decades. It is projected to
reach $755 by 1980. Spurring the
rise: Major medical advances
requiring new, expensive
facilities, increased in-hospital
care and price jumps which out-
stripped the rising costs of con-
sumer items. The annual rate
of increase for health products
and services was 3.9 per cent in
the early 1950s; by the early
1970s, it had reached 6.5 per
cent, the Conference Board
reports.
Almost everybody has at
least one bad habit, sometimes
several. And they’re not easy to
break. An old Spanish proverb
says, "Habits are at first
cobwebs then cables,” and you
can’t beat old Spanish proverbs
for truth.
What exactly is a habit? Most
experts would define it as a
constantly repeated gesture,
mannerism or body motion
which is either unconscious or
— if the person knows what
heY doing and can’t stop it —
compulsive.
Nervous habits include
nail-biting, grimacing, yawn-
ing, twitching lips, nodding
heads, raising eyebrows,
clenching fists. Nervous hab-
its are aggravated by poor
general health, inadequate
nutrition, emotional tan-
trums, nervous fatigue and
conflict.
A bad habit may begin at a
moment when a person seeks
relief from anxiety too strong
for him and the repeated
gesture quickly becomes an
unconscious response to
anxiety. Most people want to
stop these habits and don’t
know how. Among the habits
people seem to want most to
break these days are smoking
and eating fattening foods. For
the tense smoker who wants to
break the habit, factors such as
work or home difficulties
usually must be removed, or he
must adjust himself so as to be
relatively free from tension.
Taking a long weekend away
from his usual haunts — in a
relaxing, thoroughly different
setting such as at a Holiday Inn
— can go a long way toward
starting the habit-breaking
under the most pleasant
conditions. If he’s enjoying
himself while not smoking on
his fun weekend, he’ll possibly
make enough progress so that
he won’t backslide once he
returns to the old routine.
That goes for overeating
too. Swimming, sightseeing,
relaxing in Holiday Inn’s
charming surroundings can
compensate for a lot of food.’
You don’t have to cook so you
don’t have to taste; no
refrigerator is at hand to be
opened whenever you feel the
urge. In short, temptation is
behind you, and you don’t even
miss it. And when you’re eating
at Holiday Inn, you can order
the proper food for your diet —
and stick with it more easily
than at home. So if you have a
bad habit to lose, why don’t you
call Holiday Inn right now for a
reservation?
A first step toward
overcoming the inward need
and the outward "habit” is to
face it. This brings the need to
the surface.
William James, the famous
psychologist, believed^ you
could substitute a new positive
habit for the old habit. He
advocated these things to
remember:
1. Take care to launch
yourself with as strong an
initiative as possible.
2. Never let an exception
occur until the new habit is
securely rooted in your life. m
3. Sieze the first opportunity
to act on every resolution you
make.
Discipline and control,
applied to even petty habits,
have a special reward. It’s like
house fire insurance. The
payment does no good at the
time and you may never see a
return. But if there is a fire,
your payment may be your
salvation.
Someone has said that one of
the terrible illusions of life is
that we let outselves think that
the present hour is not the
critical, decisive hour. But it is
— so now is the hour to break
that bad habit. ,
