PAGE 6, THE WACO CITIZEN, TUESDAY, APRIL 1, 1986 SPORTS By RON STEFANIAI In 1983 a young man out of San Antonio Churchill High School assumed Baylor's quarterback position in a big way when he debuted in the 40-36 upset of Brigham Young, but he would not be tghe only quarterback. Cody Carlson had earned a position as a starter, but not a full fledged starter; he would have to split time with another kid on the block named Tom Muecke. So they went in every other play for the first year; they played every other series in 1984 and last season they played two series a piece. Now Muecke is gone and Carlson for the first time ever will have to be twice the quarterback he was before in playing time, responsibility and effort. Carlson said he can go four quarters, although he realizes it will be a little more tiring.

never got tired playing half a he said, now I realize that I will have to be in better shape and that I will still be tired just like the other ten guys out there." But there is another problem that concerns him and could make Grant Teaff bite his nails: Carlson has been sidelined before with injuries. In 1984, a groin injury kept him out of three games and last year he was barred llie Rice game with a oack injury. But strength coaches on the Baylor staff are taking preventive measures this year in an effort to make Carlson not so fragile. quarterback coach usually didn't make us lift that i William G. for Councilmember Beverly Hills Place 4 on ballot Carlson said, this year he told me to go in the weight room and not come out until I gained 15 The toughest part of the job is responsibility, according to Carlson, who said he looks at it as more of a test than a task.

I do the job, nobody can bail me out. I like And Carlson, who has been identified as more of a passer than a runner, will have total responsibility for the game plan with the absence of Tom Muecke's ability to run. However, he is not afraid and he said he got a good taste of carrying the ball in 1985. year I had to run the option when we installed the veer and I was pleased with the way I ran (37 carries for 127 yards). I will have to run more than before, but I am looking forward to Carlson said that teams that run well have a history of winning games and conference titles and that the Bears will do the same in an effort to win.

will pass the ball quite a he said, we will nave a balanced Carlson said he will miss his friendly rival workmate, but that he is looking forward to being the only one at the helm. will be he said of playing without Muecke, I am looking forward to controling the offense by myself." And although Carlson realizes that he will be beast of burden, he simply looks as it as part of the job that is all his in his final year in the green and gold.

It worked as she Two Southwest Conference football conches spoke in Waco recently on two different occasions.

Grant Teaff was principal speaker at the Salvation Army annual report meeting and Jackie Snerrfl addressed the annual Boys Gub dinner. As one Wacoan who attended both meetings put it, far as speeches go, IF Sherrill is the million dollar coach, then Grant Teaff is the 9 million dollar Of course, this is no suiprise to Baylor people who have heard Grant's motivational and inspirational speeches since his coming to Baylor in 1972.

Rumor has it that Gene Bartow, who formerly coached there and present coach at Alabama-Birmingham is waiting in the wings and will accept the position if and when it opens up. Final Four tag has been around for quite a while now. As broadcasters reflect on the history of tournament, few remember that Baylor, as well as Houston, have been the only SWC finalists in history of the tourney. The late, great and beloved BUI Henderson's 1948 Bears made it all the way to Madison Square Garden but lost to Kentucky in the final game. Those were the days when Baylor a fu? publicist and that job was handled by student Don OHver.

This writer witnessed that big game in New York and was a passenger on the plane that accompanied the team to the Big Apple. There was very little publicity In those days. I remember well that the Waco Tribune-Herald couldn't find a photo of the team to run in its editions following the game. As president of the Baylor Chamber of Commerce, I was called by the late Oscar Lamce for a picture. Oliver was contacted but a picture was not available.

A photographer was summoned and a team picture was finally run in the Trib about a week after the team returned to Waco.

City of Beverly Hills ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT Like many cities, we too are having to tighten our belts due to upcoming federal funding cuts, but with continued teamwork of our councilmembers, employees and volunteers we still are able to progress toward our goals. Our councilmembers find themselves challenged by these cuts, but It is a challenge they have met and successfully overcome, without penalizing the citizens by increasing property taxes or cutting back on services that benefit the citizens.

Teamwork does not stop with the council, it extends to the employees also. Each employee contributes their part by performing not just one job, but many, such as a city secretary that becomes a court clerk or police officer when needed, a street supervisor who doubles as a dog catcher, a bookkeeper that dispatches and police officers who volunteer as firemen. And as usual the most outstanding example of teamwork is from our volunteers. Our volunteer fire department works very closely with our police and other departments to provide the protection and service you deserve. The time they volunteer makes them a well respected part of the team.

This past year has been a rewarding experience for me. It is clear that our City has a team of councilmembers, employees and volunteers that are concerned about the welfare of our City. It is a pleasure to work with these individuals. I am looking forward to the rest of my term as your Mayor.
