C.A.T.S. Program To Include Four Grades At South Ward
The Coleman Independent School
implemented a program for gifted
and talented students in grades 3, 4,
and 5 in 1983-84. This will be
expanded to include grades 3, 4, 5,
and 6 for the 1984-85 school year.
Identification of students for en-
4,
trance into the program will be
based on the different criteria as
follows: (1) standardized achieve-
ment testing scores for reading,
math and language arts: (2) product
evaluation; (3) teacher nominations
according to the Renzulli/Hartman
Behavioral Scales of learning, moti-
vation, creativity and leadership; (4)
peer nominations; (5) parent nomi-
nation; (6) Slosson Abilities Test
score. Selection will be made by a
committee of educators.
The prqgram is called C.A.T.S.,
an acronym for “Creative and
Thinking Student”, and is operated
as a resource, pull-out type program
with the students being served for
2'/»-3 hours one day per week.
The Coleman Independent School
District has adopted a policy which
states that “gifted and talented
students shall be defined as those
students who excel in any one or
combination of the following areas;
Leo Stallworth Signs
With Abilene Christian
BYSTANBRUDNEY
Leo Stallworth, a 5-11, 175 pound
senior, became the second Bluecat
gridder to sign a National Letter of
Intent with a major university
during the past week. Stallworth
inked the letter with Abilene Chris-
tian University this past Wednes-
day. He joins Vince Hubbard, who
signed with Texas Tech the same
day.
There wasn't a big splash about
Stallworth's signing ... in fact, his
signing was casually mentioned in
the Abilene Reporter-News but
there's a great deal more to the
story.
For Leo, the opportunity to play
college football has to be regarded
as a dream come true. The stream-
lined senior did not play for the
Bluecats this past season, his senior
year, because of his age . .. missing
the U.I.L. “birthday” regulation by
a few months. So the 1982 Bluecat
tailback had to rely on his creden-
tials “that year" to catch the eye of
the ACU coaching staff.
A.C.U. apparently liked what
they saw after gazing upon game
films of Stallworth's best efforts in
'82. "Lee" led the Cats to a 6-3-1
record by rushing for a 1,000 yards
plus on 183 attempts. He tallied 11
touchdowns ... one by the passing
route for 66 points. Stallworth
caught nine passes for 125 yards.
His best game of '82 was against
Abilene Wylie when the speedster
racked up 214 yartis rushing on 17
carries for three TDs. He was
recognized by the Associated Press
Schoolboy Honor Roll the next
week.
Leo was a first team All-West
Texas pick in 1962. Stallworth was a
8-AAA second team all-district
pick in his sophomore season and a
first team choice a year later. While
playing junior high football, he
returned an even dozen kickoffs for
touchdowns.
In trsck, he ran a 10.72 100
meters and anchored a flashy 400
meter relay team which turned in a
1962 best of 42.7. He qualified for
regional in the mile relay and 100
meters that season. He finished
sixth at state in his freshman year in
the 100 meters.
For the Bluecat senior, 1963 has
been an agonizingly long athletic
season. Leo longed to be a part of
the football team which sccom-
ptished so much in winning the
Mistrict title. Instead of running
general intellectual ability, specific
subject matter aptitude, and crea-
tive and productive thinking
ability." These students require
special educational services beyond
those normally provided by the
regular school program to assist
them in achieving their potential
toward increased contributions to
themselves, their community, state,
nation and world.
Any parents that will have a child
in grades 3, 4, 5, and 6 for the
1984-85 school year and who thinks
their child might benefit from such a
program should contact Ed Pryor,
principal of South Ward, and obtain
a form for nominating their child for
the program. Nomination does not
necessarily mean acceptance into
the program because there are
numerous other criteria to be con-
sidered. However, this will initiate
the identification process. If your
child is presently a member of
C.A.T.S., you will need not nomi-
nate your child.
The forms may be obtained
between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. at
the principal's office and must be
returned by April 1, 1984.
Tryouts For Judging Teams
All 4-H members interested in
participating on the county horse
and livestock judging teams are
asked to attend a meeting Thurs-
day, February 16, at 7:30 p.m. at the
Courthouse, announces Kerry
Shropshire, County Extension
Agent, Agriculture, 4-H.
Those unable to attend the meet
ing should contact the Extension
Office to request their names be
placed on the list, as this is
necessary for participation on the
teams this year.

LEO STALLWORTH
end sweeps, he became a “fiery
cheerleader” on the sidelines, en-
couraging his teammates through
tough moments .. . and through W;
all, the likeable and talented senior
never quit the battle. He endured.
Lesser dedicated athletes would
have blamed their obscurity this
year on “senioritis."
Stallworth has run nearly every
day since his last ball game in 1982.
He looks strong, lifting weights
regularly. La#t Wednesday’s sign-
ing in Abilene allowed Leo to fulfill
the first part of his dream. At the
Letterman's Banquet held on May
19, 1963, Stallworth was awarded
the “Outstanding Back" trophy for
his 1982 accomplishments by his
teammates. At the time when he
received his award, Leo spoke to a
packed National Guard house. He*
choked on an entire passage of
praise for his teammates in allowing
him to receive the award. Tearfully,
he uttered, “you were great" and
TU miss you next year", knowing
well be was ineligible to play.
Leo Stallworth's remarks in doe
ing were. Tm going to play college
football". A year later. A.C.U. says
he will play football sod he reports
in August. With Leo's determina-
tion and grit, he'll give it his best
shot. We hope he succeeds. Stall-
worth is but another successful end
Effective January 1, 1984, a new
State Law requires any person
selling a motor vehicle to furnish the
buyer with an Odometer Statement
disclosing the cumulative number of
miles traveled by the motor vehicle
at the time of transfer, according to
Mrs. Billie Baker, Coleman County
Tax Assessor-Collector.
The Odometer Statement must be
surrendered to the County Tax
Assessor Collector with the pur-
chaser's application for title.
All certificates of title issued by
the State Department of Highways
and Public Transportation covering
vehicles transferred on and after
January 1, 1984 will record the
latest odometer reading as reflected
by the application for title.
Individuals may obtain the pre-
scribed forms for odometer's state-
ments from the Department's Motor
Vehicle Division or any County Tax
Assessor-Collector's office.
