American Field Service searching for families
A ten-month "experience”
in international relations wi-
thout leaving town -- that’s
what AFS International Scho-
larships (American Field
Service) is offering Bellaire
families.
AFS Chapter President,
Mrs. Sue McCredie andAm-
erican Family Committee
Chairman, Mr. and Mrs.
Bernard Freeland are sear-
ching for a family that will
host an overseas student for
the coming school year of
1974-75. The student usually
a high school senior will live
with the family and attend
classes at Bellaire Senior
High School. While many fa-
milies participating in the
AFS program include family
members who are high scho-
ol students, any family is
eligible to serve as a host.
Young familiesare very suc-
cessful as host family vol-
unteers. It becomes a learn-
ing experience for young
children and or parents the-
mselves.
All candidates who apply
for a years’ stay in the Uni-
ted States are carefully
screened by AFS Interna-
tional Headquarters in New
York City. Students come
here from over 60 countries
and 2622 students from ab-
road are currently living
and studying in America this
year. Bellaire is fortunate
in having two students, Fre-
deric Palay from Paris and
Bellaire falls to
Lamar 21-14
Willy Jakulica from Salta,
Argentina, living with Bell-
aire families, the lanes and
the Fricks, and attending
Bellaire High at the pre-
sent time.
The main requirement for
an AFS host family is the
parents’ concern for and an
interest in young people. As-
ide from food costs and pos-
sibly some small incidental
expenses the host family in-
curs no debt in hosting a
foreign student. The local
adult chapter and student
chapter raises money an-
nually through a bond drive
which -- when supplemented
by whatever contributions
the student can afford —
covers AFS Program expen-
ses.
AFS also extends a mon-
thly allowance directly to the
student to cover his inciden-
tal personal expenses. The
organization makes sure
host families will not have
to pay medical bills for stu-
dents. As a matter of policy,
AFS extends medical cover-
age to its students. Host fa-
milies may take a monthly
tax deduction in accordance
with a provision made by
the United States Internal
Revenue Service. So there
is very little expense to a
host family. What the host
family furnishes is some-
thing that cannot be paid for
in cash — love and attention
that every young person wants
in a home situation.
Host families are backed
in Bellarie by a large and
active AFS Chapter made up
of Bellaire Area residents
and a Student Chapter at
Bellaire High. Any of the
members are ready to step
in and give support to host
families at all times.
Quarterback, Kenny Moh-
nke, passed for two touch-
downs and ran for another,
to lead the Lamar Redskins
to a 21-14 homecoming con-
quest o the Bellaire Car-
dinals, Saturday night in Del-
mar stadium.
Mohnke tossed touchdown
passes of 17 and 34-yards
and scored rom two yars
out on a sneak. Both of the
TD passes went to Greg
Knicade. Kincade had an out-
standing night in the defen-
sive secondary, also, inter-
cepting two Bellaire aeiral
attempts.
The Redskins showed a
balanced attack, picking up
121 yards rushing and 97
yards theough the airways.
Kevin Gentry, the city’s le-
ading rusher led the gro-
und attack, picking up 112
yards on 19 carries. Moh-
nke completed 6 of 8 pass-
es for the night, to pace the
Lamar aerial attack.
Bellaire drew first blood,
driving 46-yards in 6 plays.
Bolman capped the drive with
a five yard keeper for the
TD. The Drive resulted from
a fumble recovery by the
Card’s Bob Poindexter on the
Lamar 46 yard line.
Lamar’s first TD was also
set up by a fumble recovery,
with James Predium coming
up with a bobble for the
Redskins on the Bellaire 34-
yard line. Lamar struck mo-
ments later, with Mohnke
connecting with Kincade for
a 34-yard scoring strike,
leaving the score knoted 7-7
after Denton Priest’s PAT.
The Redskins moved ahead
in the second period,follow-
ing a 46-yard drive. Mohnke
scored the TD on a quarter-
back sneak and Priest added
the PAT, giving Lamar a 14-
7 lead at the half.
Bellaire came out strong
in the second half, receiving
the kicko f and driving 75-
yards in 15 plays to tie the
game 14-14. Pat Hartnett
scored the touchdown on a
one yard run and Steve
Fefer Booted the PAT.
Lamar, however, came
roaring back with aTDdrive
of its own. The Redskins
returned the ensuing kickoff
to their own 32 yard line.
F rom that point they moved
68 yards in 9 plays, with
Mohnke passing 17-yards to
Kincade for the deciding to-
uchdown. Preist added his
third PAT of the night, fin-
alizing the score at 21-14.
Bellaire showed its usual
strong gound attack, gaining
204 yards rushing. Rusty
Kennedy led the Cardinal
ground attack with 111 yards
on 23 carries. Card quar-
terback, Bollman, suffered
from three pass intercep-
tions, including one on the
Lamar five yard line, which
stalled the Bellaire effort.
The victory gives Lamar
a 4-2 overall record and a
2-1 mark in 18-A competi-
tion. Bellaire drops to 3-3
overall and 1-2 in league
play.
