Saturday Morning
A pedestrian who was struck by a

fered a broken left leg, bruises on her left
arm, scrapes on her forehead and left
side of her arm.

ferred to Northwest Texas Hospital in
Amarillo. She reportedly underwent
surgery on the broken leg.
The accident happened as Mrs.
Aguayo was crossing 2nd Street (High-
way 86) north from the car wash. This is
in the 400 block.
A Happy man, who was driving the
vehicle, said he saw Mrs. Aguayo stand-
ing in the center (turning) lane when he
was about a block away. He momentar-
ily turned his head and saw the woman
in the street directly in front of him, he
said.
The driver told police he swerved to
miss the woman, but she was struck by
the vehicle's right front bumper.

* Two separate crimes were cleared
with the apprehension Sunday and
Monday of four juveniles. The suspects
have been referred to juvenile authori-
ties.
They are believed to have been in-
volved in an OcL 2 burglary of a motor
vehicle in which an auto left on a high
school parking lot during a football
game had a vent window broken to gain
entry. Cassette tapes and a brown
leather case, valued at $610, were taken
from the vehicle.
The four juveniles also are suspects in
an OcL 7 criminal mischief act in which
hay was scattered and pumpkins were
broken at a decorative straw blockade
between the VFW and American Le-
gion halls. Bales, which had been
thrown in the street, were removed by
police.
A citizen reported that a red
Panasonic upright vacuum-cleaner was
stolen from an open garage (no door) in
the 500 block of NE 3rd. The woman
said she had placed the vacuum in the
garage that morning and was away from
home from 9:30 until 11:30. It was
missing when she returned.
Value of the vacuum was placed at
$350.
A City of Tulia electric meter, situ-
ated behind the Allsup's store on SW
2nd, was "pulled out of the ground, then
thrown or slammed onto the concrete."
Damage was placed at $203.
i
GOLF COURSE DAMAGE
In another criminal mischief matter, a
vehicle was driven onto the Tule Lake
Country Club golf course between mid-
night Friday and 8:30 a.m. Saturday.
Extensive damage was done to the sixth
hole green. A decorated whiskey barrel
used as a planter box was also "run
over."
Total damage was placed at $2,550.
The matter remains under investigation.
A citizen reported Saturday that she
had failed to receive her $192 food
stamps card but learned that someone in
possession of the card had forged her
name at the Post Office. Also missing

items from the woman's mail box.
According to reports reaching police,
an individual knocked glass out of a
vehicle after his parents had refused him
use of the auto. He reportedly sustained
a deep cut on the arm and "lost a lot of
blood" which prompted the parents to
contact police

Hornets At Floydada Friday
Continued from Page One
scrimmage and won 26-7 on the local field.
The Green and White will again own a decided size advantage. From tackle to tackle on
offense they tip the scales at 229, 237,212, 230 and 257. In addition, there is an abundance
of experience.
Floydada's twin tenors of "(Jamie) Davis and (Michael) Henderson are both threats at
any time," Pair says. They combine both size (Davis 178 and Henderson 185) with speed.
Henderson ran second in the district track meet 100 meter dash this spring. Blocking for the
pair if 197 fullback Tyrone Henderson, Michael's younger brother.
Pair predicts "both teams will attempt to keep the ball away from the other one" because
each is concerned with the opponents' explosiveness.
’They're so good at what they do," the Hornet mentor says. "You've just got to line up
and try to stop them."
Led by darting runner Cory Sanders, quarterback Ryan Prater and a stable of fleet
receivers, the Hornets have not been exactly anemic on offense. They have outscored
opponents 169-62 through seven games and hold a 2,026-1,079 edge in total offense.
Sanders, who has rushed for 825 yards, is averaging 6.81 steps a carry.
On the stopper side, Kevin Pepper has 115 tackles (45 unassisted), John Brookins is
credited with 73 stops and Robert Rodriquez has an even 50.
