had two touchdowns called
back in a wild-scoring spree.
According to scouting re-
ports, the Wildcats will line up
in at least four different of-
fensive formations, ranging
from the Wing-T with split
ends to the straight-T to the
Power-1. Fullback Joe Shea-
rer, 175, is their bread and
butter runner, while wingback
Lynn Bishop, 140, is a dan-
gerous pass receiver and the
Wildcats’ best defensive per-
former from his linebacking
post.
DOUBLE DUTY PERFORMERS for the Blinn College Bucs
are Billy Fontenot (61) and Charles McClain (36). Fontenot,
a sophomore 210-pounder from Beaumont, is a starting
offensive guard for the gridiron Bucs and a catcher on the
baseball team. McClain, a 175-pound freshman from Olton
in far West Texas, starts in the secondary and is expected
to be a star track performer since he won the state champ-
ionship in the hurdles last year. However, they and their
teammates are most interested right now in beating arch-
rival Wharton County Saturday night in their final confer-
ence football contest. ____________________
