Cougars Defeat
Ole Miss, 25-11
The Houston Cougars are
back in the limelight in a big
way after a slow start and
one of the big reasons is Gary
Mullins, a near-sighted quar-
terback who has piloted them
to three straight victories af-
ter the Cougs lost their first
two games.
The latest triumph was the
biggest of all, a 25-11 con-
quest of nationally-ranked
Mississippi with Mullins run-
ning for one touchdown and
passing for another and with
Jim Strong romping with 219
yards on the ground.

The Hempstead Bobcats put
together a strong second half
effort Friday night, as they de-
feated the Somerville Yeguas,
36-8, in a District 26-A con-
test. The loss brings the Yeg-
uas’ district record to 0-2.
Hempstead scored on Its
first possession of the ball
game, when Ricky Burch
scored from one yard out to
cap a 67-vard drive. The try
for extra points failed.
Somerville fumbled the fol-
lowing kickoff and the Bobcats
were in business once again,
this time from the Yegua-39.
Three plays later, John Greig
recovered a Paul Self fumble
in the end zone for another six
points. David Rape passed to
Paul Self for the two point
conversion.
