4 THE GRANTONIAN September 16, 1966 Generals, Madison engage tonight Similar strengths and con trasting weaknesses win provide the drama when the Madison Senators host the Generals in a clash of football powers tonight at 8 o’clock. Like the Generals, a strong backfield, good ends, and 19 returning lettermen are Senator merits, but lack of adequate size and speed will dim their hopes. Stalwart Senator backs in clude Gary Johnson and Terry Houck, who rushed for over 1,000 yards last year. Quarter back Dave White will pass, sometimes to halfback Jim Pos- ton. Ends Bob Baxter and Bob Hoffman are fine receivers and 210-pound tackle Tom Nielson and center Dennis McGhean are other top linemen. Madison fell to Benson, 14-7, in last week’s opener.

Playing comeback football at count for 240 of the Generals’ Franklin, the Generals had to 446 yards. “Grant’s defensive line was put together a patented 18-point fourth quarter to stop the de really tough,” moaned Quaker head coach Gale Davis. Strong defense has bolstered the Gen Spikers ready for erals for the past 3 seasons. cross country meet Another season of 2.5 mile races will begin when the cross country season opens Wednes day. Cleveland, Benson, and Jeffer son high school teams will in vade the course set around our school, park, and the bowl, in an effort to end General mastery over the schools who have yet to defeat Coach Mark Cotton’s teams. To warm up for the meet, Coach Cotton’s aces will run a 1.8 mile intra-squad race today. Runner to watch in the race should be Benson sophomore Mike Haim, who as a freshman won the state 2-mile title. Cleve land is expected to run well.

Netters prepare for tennis tourney by Mike Hoffman Now that the Generals are off on the right foot after their come back victory over Franklin, we think it’s about time we pointed out a few staggering facts concerning Grant football mastery. Over the past 3 years, the Generals have 2 city champion ships, 1 state title, and have fallen to second once. No team has defeated us twice and we have recorded 8 shutouts in 26 games. Actual won-loss record is pretty hard to believe. In those 26 games, we have compiled a 24 win, 1 loss, 1 tie mark. And as a class, this year’s seniors are 15 wins, no defeats, and they claim the city junior varsity scoring record. Defense has been a main staple in the success story. Only 218 points have been scored against us, less than 10 per game. Offensively, we have “rolled that score up to the sky” to the tune of 454 points, over twice our opponents’ and an average of about 18 points a game. Never a school to discriminate, we have trounced everyone in the last 3 years. Franklin handed us our only defeat, and we have been particularly hard on Roosevelt and Washington. ; Colonial players will be out for revenge this yfeaf’P'i 3 years we have ravaged them at 118-13. The Roughriders got oA Vj little easier, we have only totaled 84 points, but between those two schools nearly half our 3-year point total has been amassed. Following the Franklin game it was easy to see that spirit and pride are certainly not lacking, so we can probably look forward to another successful season. And the players are reminded that they are not just individuals by the sign in the locker room. PRIDE Pride in yourself, Pride in your school, Pride in your team. The Portland high school fall tennis championships will open Monday, September 19, here and at the Benson high school courts. All boys’ singles' and doubles will be held at the Buckman courts, while the girl netters will vie at the Grant courts. After the conclusion of the varsity competition, the junior varsity is tentatively scheduled to start on September 26. All those participating in both varsity and junior varsity are re quired to report for the drawing of their first-round opponents at 4 p.m. on the first day of compe tition. Those failing to do so will automatically lose by default. Tennis coach Dan Robinson said he was unsure of who would be representing Grant this year. The Generals, however, could pose a formidable threat with Greg Matthews in the singles and Steve Dole and Dan Pitman in both the singles and doubles. All contestants must wear white clothing, tennis shoes, and bring two new tennis balls. A Public Service Message for informed People We know you, Mr. Right: You’re the leader who always has the latest word on the whole scene. And the truth is—we need you on our side. Reason? Well, let’s face it tiger, the continuous combustion engine has a poor history among thinking people. That messy mixing of the fuel and the engine lubricant was just about that primitive, as was the inferior perform ance and billowing stench from the ex haust. Why, Perry Como couldn’t keep cool in the midst of all that! But, heads up people, times have changed! Please take note, for we know how great your group’s influ ence is on “right” thinking. What we are saying is simply this: When you buy your sportcycle, Think YAMAHA! Why? Because the mouse has ROARED. No more hard starting, messy mixing, billowing exhaust or ring-a-ding sound. Just a snarling tiger that will nip a honda’s head off with one bite. Impossible? Not since our integral oil injection or tuned ex haust started to reap the advantages of Continuous Combustion and Roller Bearing Crankshafts.
