8-A
Trion Blasts Dade County 49-0
It has been reported that
Dade County became so dis
enchanted with Georgia and
the Federal Government in the
1940’s they tried to secede
from the state and union. If
they continue to play the
Trion Bulldogs in football they
just might try it all over again.
Last Friday night Coach
Clarence Blevins juggernaut
football team rolled over the
“Land of Dade’’ 49-0 in a
Region 6B North game.
The Bulldogs spoiled Dade’s
Homecoming with 23 first half
points and added 26 more in
the second half. Trion dotted
the scoreboard in the middle of
the first quarter when Junior
Quarterback Jeff Ware found
split-end Sammy Kingsmorc
free in the endzone for 14
yards and a touchdown. Lane
Farmer made the first of three
extra point kicks. Minuteslater
Dade tried a quick kick and
when the punter muffed the
snap from center James
“Tuffy” Russell pounced on
the kicker for a safety and (
Trion led 9-0. In the second
stanza tailback Randy Peace :
broke off tackle and raced 27
yards for Trion’s second touch
down. Minutes before the half ;
Ware found Kingsmorc open at
the Wildcat 30 yard line from
where Kingsmore reversed his ;
field and was hauled down at
the 10 yard line. The pass play
covered 63 yards. On the next
play Lane “Tank” Farmer
ripped up the middle, shedding
would-be tacklers like bowling
pins, for a 10 yard TD
scamper. From this point
Coach Blevins turned the game
over to the alternate unit.
Other Trion scoring was as
follows. Farmer ran for 10
yards in the third quarter.
Peace skirted right end for 29
yards to score. Steelman Jeff
Bowers intercepted a pass and
battled his way for 40 yards
and his second TD in as many
weeks. Russ Jennings closed
out the scoring with a 1 yard
quarterback sneak. Randy
Searels ran for 'he two point
conversion.
On defense Bowers, Farmer
played superb from their line
backing positions. Up front
Stan Rosser, Dan Logan and
Tuffy Russell sparkled as did
the entire defensive unit.
TRI NTON, Ga. Talk
about having things well under
control. The Trion Bulldogs
controlled the entire game
Friday night and, as a result,
enjoyed a 49-0 cakewalk over
Dade County in a Region 6-B
encounter.
Ihe victory boosted Irion’s
overall record to 4-2 and its
region mark to 2-1. And it left

them virtually tied for second
place in the region standings.
Coach Clarence Blevins saw
nothing but good in the way
his Bulldogs performed. Dade
County threatened only once,
driving to the Trion five-yard
line late in the first half. How
ever, the Bulldog defense
stiffened and held the Wildcats
at bay on this one threat.
Otherwise, it was Trion
from start to finish. The Bull
dogs so dominated play that
Dade County managed only
five first downs and two of
those came on penalties. An
other thing, Blevins played
every one of his troops during
the course of the game.
Trion scored in every quar
ter. The Bulldogs built up a
23-0 lead at halftime and then
erupted for three more touch
downs in the third quarter to
settle the issue once and tor all.
Trion rushed for 209 yards
and passed for another 103
markers. Dade County had 107
yards total offense, much of
that coming with the reserves
in the game.
Defensively, Jeff Bowers
had himself another fine night'
Besides making one tackle after
another, he intercepted a pair
of Dade County passes and and
returned one of those for a
touchdown. Also, Danny
Logan and James Russell were
singled out for their defensive i
work.
Trion went to work in the
first period when Stan Rosser
came crashing through to block
a punt. This gave the Bulldogs
the ball at Dade’s 14 and on
the first play quarterback Jeff
Ware passed into the end zone
to Sammy Kingsmore for the
touchdown. Lane Farmer
kicked to make it 7-0.
Later in the period, Dade
County tried to quick kick out
of its end zone. But, the kick i
never got off because Russell I
came rushing in to tackle the
Wildcat in the end zone for a :
safety.
The Bulldogs got two more ;
touchdowns in the second
period.
The first came after a nine
play, 49-yard drive and was
scored on a 10-yard scamper
by Randy Peace. I armer split
the uprights to make it a 16-0
game.
Then later in the quarter the
Bulldogs put together a i
70-yard drive that required 1
only three plays, hating up ;
most of the yardage was a ,
52-yard pass from Ware to
Kingsmore. However, the i
touchdown came on a 10-yard i
run by Farmer, who also added '
the PAT
The Bulldogs weren’t con
tent with a 23-0 lead at halt
time. They talked three times
in the third quarter
In the final period, Kuss
Jennings scored to climax a
56-yard drive. Ilie big play in
the drive was a 34-yard pass
from Jennings to David Wil
liams that put the Bulldogs
down close.
Randy Searels ran for the
two-point conversion to ac
count for the final margin of
victory.
Farmer and Peace ac
counted for most of the rush
ing yards. Farmer gained 7)
yards on I 1 carries and Peace
had 61 yards on 10 rushes.
In the passing department,
Ware hit on three of six for 69
yards and a touchdown.
Jennings completed one of two
throws for 34 yards
Kingsmore caught two
passes for 66 yards and a score.

FERTILIZING LAWNS
Fescue and other cool I
season grasses, such as blue- i
grass and bentgrass, make very I
little growth during hot, dry I
periods in July and August j
When the temperature begins
to drop in September and I
October, growth begins again.
This is the time to begin a
tall fertilization program in
order to have a high quality
lawn for the fall and winter
months One approach is to
fertilize with a mixed fertilizer
such as 6-12-12 in September,
followed by periodic applica
tions of nitrogen to keep the
grass green
It you want to purchase
only one kind of fertilizer for
year-round use, then get a fer
tilizer high in nitrogen, low in
phosphorus and medium in
potash. Fertilizers with a 4-1-2
or 3-1-2 ratio are useful
I samples of these ratios are
16-4-8 and 1 2-4-18 analysis.
F ALL ROSES
While most of us think of
spring and summer as the time
for a profusion of beautiful
flowers, many plants may pro-
duce flowers during the tall
season.
Roses are one of those
plants that bloom in the spring,
summer and fall. It is not
unusual to have a few rose
blooms at Thanksgiving or even
Christmas. The warm days and
cool nights of fall are just right
for good bloom production on
rose plants.
However, for late blooms,
care during the summer and
early fall is essential.
Care consists of fertilizing,
watering and continued dusting
or spraying. Use one-fourth
cup of 8-8-8, 10-10-10. 5-10-5
or similar analysis per plant for
the last application in Septem
ber
Carefully apply fertilizer by
broadcasting it over the soil
surface extending just beyond
the branch spread of the plant.
Avoid getting any of the fer
tilizer material on the foliage
or stems. Water the plant
immediately.
Try to water roses early in
the day and avoid wetting the
foliage. Wet or damp foliage is
more susceptible to mildew
Wayne London picked up
216 yards in 13 carries to lead
the Chattooga J V Warriors to a
34-6 victory over the La-
Fayette Baby Ramblers.
Chattooga manhandled La-
Fayette as they compiled 368
total yards to the Ramblers
118. Thomas Baker caught 2
passes and out ran defenders
for 2 touchdowns.
The Warrior fullback, Billy
Martin, picked up 41 hard
earned yards in 11 carries.
Little Chris Petitt gained 40
yards in 5 carries. Quarterback,
Eric Mann, picked up 33 yards
in 3 carries and was 2 for 3
passing, before he was forced
to leave the game with a frac
tured shoulder.
Today the Warriors will play
the Ringgold JV in Ringgold.
Game time is 4:30.
Handicapped
To Receive
ATLANTA-There’s good
news for handicapped persons
in Georgia. The Department of
Public Safety has begun imple
menting a new program de
signed to provide identification
cards, complete with photo
graph, to all handicapped per
sons who do not have a drivers
license.
According to Lt. Col. J. H.
Cofer, acting commissioner, a
bill was passed in the 1973
session of the Georgia General
Assembly to provide for the
identification cards. They are
being issued by the Drivers
Service Division, and resemble
a drivers license.
Handicapped persons in
terested in obtaining the identi
fication cards may do so by
visiting their nearest Georgia
State Patrol post or drivers
license examining station. All
and other diseases.
Weekly sprayings or dust
ings should be continued until
after the plants go into
dormancy. Watch for foliage
and flower diseases as well as
spider mites. They can quickly
ruin your fall crop of flowers.
If you need more informa
tion on lawn and garden prob
lems, contact the Extension
office at 857-1410, or come by
Summerville post office base
ment. We will be glad to help.

CHATTOOGA 13 - LAKEVIEW 12
Coach Jack Archer’s Warriors have a three game
winning streak coming into this big battle and feature
probably the most balanced attack in the region behind
quarterback Larry Liebe who now is over an early
season injury. The Indians have won by big margins the
last two games, but the real test of any team rests with a
close, hard-fought game. I believe though the Indians
will win this one but a mistake could ruin it.
