Page 8 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, September 25, 1952 Mustangs Drop Pilot Rock 25 to 13 in Opener Entire Squad Sees Action Heppner's Mustangs got off to a flying start on their conference football season last Friday after noon before one of the largest football crowds assembled In Heppner in many years, by de feating the Pilot Rock eleven 25 to 13. It was the first game for many of the players and the first under the direction of coach Steve Trtikositz. The Mustangs showed surpris ing technique for their first game of the season and with an entirely new system especially considering that there are only seven lettermen on the squad. They used a wide array of de ceptive plays which went for long gains on several occasions. An indication of what type of a game the spectators were to see came on the second play of the game when Heppner , broke loose for about 60 yards and a touchdown, only to have the play called back on a penalty, Heppner ran up 350 yards total gain for the afternoon with all but 20 of that being on the ground. This compared with 200 for Pilot Rock of which nearly half of the yardage came from passes. Before the final gun had sounded every member of Hepp ner's 33 man squad had seen action. Tallying the points were Roland Taylor, one touchdown and Jack Sumner three. Al Par ent made one try for point good. Norman Kentzor and Kieth Stan ton made Pilot Rock's two touch downs. Heppner racked up 13 first downs to Pilot Rock's 8 but suf fered 70 yards in penalites all of them but one for offside. Trukositz said the boys are now working on blocking and decep tion as well as a stronger pass defense in preparation for their next game October 3 with Uma tilla. o RHEA CREEK H. E. C.
