Fenton High Hosts Unbeaten Lancers JUST DOGS Tcrrill Play Is a necessary part of a dog's life and the right kind can be fun for both you and your dog. Many dogs become troublesome because they don't have a way of letting off steam. The dog then devises his own recreation such as barking, fence running, digging or chewing up draperies or shoes, and owners are usually to blame. The form of ploy you give your dog should depend on his age, stage of development and health. Younger odgs have an abundance of energy which requires direction.

They learn a lot from games which also serve to give them exercise. For example, the youngsters' game of "hide and seek" is an excellent way to encourage a puppy to use his sense of smell, and he has fun at the same tune. Throwing a ball will develop his muscles, give him exercise and recreation. One thing, however, don't choose a game that will tax your dog too much. As pointed out by the Galnes Research Center, New York, older dogs, and obese ones, as well as puppies, should not be encouraged to play beyond their capabilities, A puppy uses a lot of energy just in growing, as well as playing, and therefore needs plenty of rest.

After a while you will fin that a scheduled period of real play should be followed with a rest period, and that means a real rest. He can be penned in wherever his bed Is, and though he may complain at first, he will soon get the idea and sleep. Keep in mind that during the age a puppy is teething, around four or five months, he will begin to chew everything in sight. You can help him by providing a knuckle bone or biscuit to chew on. This will aid in loosening the teeth, which might be giving him some pain.

When a puppy is teething, make sure you have something around for him to chew on or amuse himself. If you don't, he may find It great fun to chew on the furniture or a pair of your best shoes. One last thought on the subject of play. Recreation for your dog should always be safe and within the boundaries of your own home. He may get more exercise by letting him run loose, but you are exposing him to dangers of all kinds.

About safe play, just a thought, don't let your pup play with a rubber or plastic ball that has a bell in it. If he chews through the ball and swallows the bell, you've got trouble. About lime- Hope you hunters have your dog ready for the season. Some of the private game preserves and clubs are now open and that Nov. 11 date for pheasants is getting close.

Talked to a number of folks at the Golden Retriever National Specialty a few weeks ago, and the real confirmed field dog owner has all of his dogs ready now. Early practice helps bring in the game and when it comes to a bird that has been just nicked and crippled the dog is the best way to find him and the humane way to go about hunting.

Bisons Aivait for Grads Wheaton North Handles Fenton Eleven, 25-13 by RICHARD CAMP The crippled Fenton Bisons were agreeable guests at Wheaton North's Homecoming as they succumbed to the Falcons 25-13 Saturday afternoon in Wheaton. Hampered by injuries, the Bisons couldn't contain lard-running fullback Bill Brown as he accounted for 19 of the Falcons' points. Next week it will be homecoming for the Bisons at Bensenville against their powerful and unbeaten neighbor Lake Park. The Lancers have been rolling over their opponents with ease and piling up impressive scores all season as they con- inue their drive toward a conference championship.

If the Bisons expect to have happy Homecoming they will need to plug up their porous defense and play their best game of the year. DISASTER struck early Saturday when the Bisons were forced to punt from their own end zone into a howling gale. George Rodriguez' kick gave the ball to the Falcons on the Bison 40. With the strong wind at his rack Falcon quarterback Bruce Hartman winged the pigskin 36 yards to end Chuck Atwater on the Bison four yard line. Fullback BUI Brown took the Sail and plunged off tackle.

As hit the line, the ball popped loose and rolled into the end zone. Brown's momentum carried him through and he fell on the ball for Wheaton's first touchdown. The extra point was wide and the Falcons led 6-0. AGAIN THE Bisons were unable to penetrate Wheaton's defenses and were forced to punt into the wind. Starting on their own 45, the Falcons utilized their weight and size to best advantage and powered their way steadily for their second ouchdown.

This one was scored on a one yard dive by tailback Rich Lyon. Fenton made one penetration deep into Falcon territory in the second quarter when middle guard George Kroeger recovered a Wheaton fumble on the SO yard line. Unable to move on the ground against the hard-charging defense, Bison quarterback Fidel Fonseca faded back and tossed a screen pass to Mickey Finn, who scampered 38 yards to the Falcon 15 yard line. Outraged, Wheaton Fenton for losses on the next four plays and took over the ball on the 40 yard line. WITH TIME running out, Wheaton moved the ball rapidly up the field into the wind and scored on Bill Brown's one yard plunge with 30 seconds to go in the first half.

Brown drove over the extra point and the Falcons sought warm half-time shelter with a comfortable 19-0 lead. A fired up Fenton team came out to engage Wheaton in the second half. Correcting their first half defensive mistakes, the herd battled the Falcons to a standstill in the third quarter. Early in the fourth period, Fenton struck again on the screen. This time Fonseca flip- ped the ball to Rodriguez behind a wall of Bisons and Rodriguez carried the spheroid 42 yards before he was stopped on the 15 yard line.

Thrown for a loss on the next play, Fonseca again called the screen to Rodriguez, who went in for the T.D. Rodriguez picked up the extra point on a run when the snap was high and he had to run. LATE IN THE fourth quarter Rich Lyon intercepted a Bison ss and returned it 42 yards to the four yard line. The Bison defense threw the birds for a loss back to the nine (Continued on Next Page) Visitors Have Rugged Club Steger Directs Lancers Past Crown Unit, 33-0 by DICK DAVIS Lake Park's varsity football squad wasted little ime in establishing their football supremacy last Saturday, as the Lancers humbled Crown 33-0.

Showing Progress Blazers Fall, 26-7; Tackle Brooks Next by ED MURNANE If Addison Trail Coach Don Layne looks like a frustrated man this week, you have to sympathize with him. Layne has finally brought his Blazers to the point where they can start worrying their opponents, and who do they have to meet during the next three weeks? First it will be Willowbrook, this Saturday. The Brooks are riding along on top of the Des Plaines Valley conference with a 4-0 record and would like nothing better than to send their sister school home with a lesson in football. Then, after a a against i a 1 South, the Blazers will travel to East Leyden, the only team in the conference with much of a chance to topple the Brooks from first place. ALTHOUGH LAYNE is not jubilant with last Saturday's 26-7 loss to Morton West, his displeasure with the Blazer failure is not because they were beaten by a better team.

The Blazers lost because they made a few costly mistakes and let the Falcons take advantage of a key break. The statistics will even point out that the Blazers were evenly matched with Morton. Addison Trail gained 12 first downs to Morton's nine. And the Blazers gained 178 yards rushing to the Falcon's 145. WHEN THE first half ended, despite the fact that the Blazers were trailing 14-7, they had kept the ball for 44 plays to Morton's 15.

The second half was a little closer, but the game still ended with the Blazers running 26 more plays than Morton. Morton got on the Scoreboard first, but only after they pulled a successful a punt. The Blazers held them to five yards DES PLAINES VALLEY Willowbrook 4 East Leyden 3 Morton West Dewners Grove 2 Glenbard East 2 West Leyden 1 Hlnsdale South 0 Addison Trail 0 on the first three downs, and when Jim Gray dropped back to punt, that was what the Blazers expected. But a kept the ball, and raced down to the Addison 22 yard line. GENE MARCHUK the Falcons to the 16, and quarterback Gray danced around left end for the first score.

Frank Wollrab's extra point kick was good. Dale Brooks returned the Falcon kickoff to the Blazer 31, and for the first time since their opening game, the Blazers put on a successful march. Brooks, his brother Glen, and Phil Rhode shared the ball carrying as the Blazers marched 69 yards in 17 plays. Dale Brooks carried the ball from the one-yard line for the first Blazer touchdown since the second quarter of the Glenbard East game. MIKE DERRICO kicked the extra point and the Blazers were on the Scoreboard after 11 quarters of goose eggs.

The Blazer defense, not to be outdone by the offense, stopped the Falcons dead on three plays after the kickoff and Morton was forced to punt. It looked like the Blazers would pick up where they lef off and march to a second score. Glen Brooks picked up two yards, and Rhode gained nine and a first down on the Addison 41. An offsides penalty againsi Addison Trail put the ball back on the 36, and on first down Rhode and. Dale Brooks crossed signals on a handoff and the loose ball was picked up by Morton's Ed Buksas.

There was no one between Buksas and the goal line, am the Falcons had six more points the easy way. Frank Sveda ran over for the PAT. After the kickoff, the Blaz ers again looked headed for a score. In three a i Rhode brought the ball into Morton territory, and a face mask pen ally against the Falcons Addison Trail down on the 39 Two carries by Glen Brook and equalizing 15 yard penal ties against both teams put thi ball on the Morton 27.

The Vikings received the pening kickoff and from that mint on had a difficult time rying to determine whether the irutal blasts of the elements or the Lancers were the more adversary to face. The Vikings spent the lions share of he first half vainly trying to repel the locals' full-throttle of- 'ense. QUARTERBACK Mark Steger paced the Lancers' relentless attack, and the 6-2 185 Ib. senior ield general enjoyed a most remarkable afternoon. He scored two touchdowns and passed for' two others, ringing his season's productiv- ty to an impressive six touch- lowns and an additional eight ouchdowns via the air lanes.

His 12 pass completions in 20 efforts were outstanding under he brutish wind conditions of his gray and blustery day. In the opening period, the Cancers swatted the Viking de- etise aside for a pair of touchdowns and a 13-0 quarter lead, lie first drive covered 54 yards in 12 plays, while the second scoring march covered 39 yards in nine plays. THE VIKING defense stacked to derail the locals 'up- he-middle power in these two Lancer drives, so Steger deftly picked the visitors' i weakness apart with keeper carries and outside sweeps. Wingback John Cunningham initiated the drive with a 15- yard run to the Viking 45. Steger than a 16 yards to the Crown 22 on a third and eight play.

Cunningham ripped to the 16 two plays later, but the Lancers bogged down to a 4th and 4 situation several moments later A quick slant-in pass to tight end Bill Grant gave the Lancers a first and goal at the six, however, and set up Steger's five yard touchdown run on the nexl play. Cunningham's placement kick made the score 7-0 with 5:24 left in the period. HALTING THE Vikings, fol lowing the kickoff, Steger and reserve wingback John Ander son shared leather lugging du ties in the nine play series. Anderson's key runs were good foi six and seven yards in crucial second down probes. Filially with a second down and goal at the eight, Steger connected with Grant for the Parkers' seconc score.

Midway through the seconc period, the Lancers drove 51 yards in a dozen plays to jrab 2 20-0 halftime lead. Anderson was again active in the drive with a 15 yard power sweep to the Viking 25, but it was Steg er's clutch 3rd and 8 pass completion to split end Mike Little to the Viking 10 that kept the drive moving. lidgewood 2 Mundelein 1 TRI-COUNTY FOOTBALL Park Vheaton North Cary Grove 4 4 4 own Elmwood Park After Steger ran to the five, fullback Ray Pulford bulled his way to the one, and Steger, be- lind center Bill Jansen, pushed over from there. Steve Paluck's conversion kick a good to round out the Lancer 20-0 lead. EARLY IN THE third period, Vikings picked off a Steger ass at the Lancer 28 and man- iged to march to the Lancer 12 before the locals thwarted the hreat.

The Lancers started from their own seven after a penalty, but moved out of danger. Eventually, they were on the Viking 21 before the drive lost its steam. The Lancer defense checked the Vikings' offense behind tackle Tom Klein, and soon had the ball on the Crown 30. The Vikings stiffened at this point, however, holding the Lancer threat at the 25. Unfortunately, the Vikings hobbled the ball on their very first play and Ralph Pope's recovery put his mates in control at the 28.

ON THE FIRST play from scrimmage, dropped back into his well structured pass protection pocket a whipped a perfect 28 yard TD strike tosplit end Steve Paluck inthe end zone. Paluck made the catch behind two Crown defenders, making Steger's day complete as the Lancer lead jumped to 26-0. Still bottled up in their own territory after the kickoff, linebacker Paul Mahonb locked and recovered a Viking punt on the Crown 11, and set upthe Lancers' final score. Junior quarterback George Blystone directed this score by pitching a 5 yard pay off strike to junior split end Rich Vana. Vana made a marvelous reception of Blystone's pitch, and Cunningham kicked the Lancers 33rd point to wrap up the victory.
