Staff Photo by Larry Littlefield No place like home for OG By LARRY LITTLEFIELD T-A Sports Editor ESCONDIDO Palomar College was whipped by Whipple Saturday night. Saddleback Colleges Toby Whipple, a 5-11, 195-pound tailback, ran for three touchdowns and scored another on a pass play to lead the Gauchos to a 37-14 Mission Conference football victory over Palomar at Escondidos Memorial Field. Whipple gained 150 yards in 30 carries before sitting down midway through the third quarter. The battle that was to be between Whipple and the Comets Tony Letuligasenoa never materialized as Palomars big fullback, who missed several days of practice due to a death in his family, gained only five yards on eight carries. Saddleback opened the scoring on its second series of the game and marched 38 yards on nine plays after blocking a Palomar punt.

Whipple carried on eight of the plays, scoring on a five-yarder. The Gauchos made it 10-0 following the first of four Saddleback interceptions when Doug Rothrock booted a 24-yard field goal early in the second quarter. Less than three minutes later Whipple broke around the right side and dashed 51 yards for Saddlebacks second touchdown, making it 17-0 with 10:37 left in the half. Palomar got on the scoreboard after Steve Schmidt recovered a fumble at the 38-yard line. Seven plays after Letuligasenoa dove over from a yard away, making it 17-7 with 4:26 left in the half.

The score at halftime, however, was 23-7 after Saddleback scored on the final play of the second quarter on a 10-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Chris Hector to Whipple, who dashed into the left comer. Early in the third quarter, Hector connected on a six-yard pass to end Rick Day, making it 30-7. The drive followed a Palomar breakdown that forced Mark Rainer to run on a fourth-down situation and he was stopped at the Comet 33. Saddleback finalized the scoring after Steve Smith intercepted a Rick Barrios pass, returning it to the 16. Whipple sprinted six yards to make it 37-7.

Barrios, bothered all night by a quick, stunting Saddleback defense, gave Palomar a touchdown against the Gaucho reserves when he hit Rainer with a nine-yard scoring pass late in the fourth quarter. the first home game in history under the lights for the Patriots. The OG football team responded to the occassion with a 21-0 Avocado League victory over Fallbrook Friday night. Cheerleaders from Orange Glen High School welcome both their team and some 3,500 fans to (Grid Scores Knights shock league leaders bright rcrnMnmA pi. Pats, field ESCONDIDO Orange Glen High School can boast today of a football field with lights brighter than any other in the Avocado League.

It would probably rather brag about its football team. Playing under their new lights for the first time, the Patriots were bright Friday night, register the upset. We wanted Oceanside to earn it. ye didnt want to give it to them. Asked to compare Friday nights shocker with last seasons 26-22 triumph over the Pirates, Woodhouse responded: This one has to be bigger.

Nobody figured we had much of a chance. All of our kids wanted to be winners, though. Meyer, obviously shaken and angry with his squad, summed it up quickly. They blew us off Excluding a few thousand bushels of bamboo leaves and several tons of horse meat, the tigers, gorillas and bears at the San Diego Zoo have the eating habits of the football players call them animals if you choose in the Avocado League. According to a source close to the inmates, the zoos fastest and biggest animals survive on large diets of meat, fruits and vegetables, fish and vitamin supplements.

The composite football player in the Avo circuit maintains a like diet, with steak, eggs and milk, gallons of milk. This, too, is according to a reliable source close to kitchen, the players mothers. While there are some unusual items on the individual menus, like the bell pepper sandwiches Mrs. Robert Eldridge makes for sons Bill and Lloyd of San Marcos High or the self styled vegetable dish Mrs. Tsugio Imoto, mother of Vistas Steve and Don, calls Okazu, players stick to the basics.

Many are typical of Poways Pete Smith, whose own self-discipline isaided by the fact that his mother, Mrs. Richard Smith, is the school nurse at Midland Elementary School in Poway. Mrs. Smith has studied dietetics and sees to it her son has a high protein diet with quality meats, eggs and milk and without candy or soft drinks. This is not to say he doesnt ever have candy or Cokes, but thats usually during the summer, Mrs.

Smith said. During football season Petes very serious and disciplines himself to good eating habits. Hot sauce, just in case The Imotos are of Japanese descent and have rice with almost every meal and Escondidos Herman Reily, in spite of a last name that might indicate he eats a lot of Irish stew, has Mexican parents. Although his mother, Mrs. Maria Reily, doesnt fix Herman very many Mexican dishes, theres always some jalapeno (mucho hot) sauce liearby.

Herman eats like a horse, says Mrs. Reily. For breakfast jiell have six eggs. He eats his lunch at school, but for dinner he likes big, thick steaks. Orange Glens Ken Hugins, one of Mrs.

Charles Hugins five children, is unique in one respect. He is sometimes called upon to help with the cooking chores. Hes sort of a fill-in cook, Mrs. Hugins said. He just does it to help out.

In the summer, Ken skin dives and often brings home abalone or lobster catches to eat that night. While he doesnt mind cleaning and preparing the delicacies from the deep, its good ol mom who does the cooking on these occasions. Most of the athletes drink milk by the gallons, either straight or in a milk shake, fortified with eggs perhaps, or natural protein. Vistas Mark Seymour, says his mom, Mrs. Robert Seymour, makes his own milk shakes using the family cocktail shaker, which makes a king sized drink.

It was a southern neighbor that gave Mrs. Marlys Frye, mother of Poways Jeff Frye, the recipe for scrambled eggs and hominy grits, which has become a popular breakfast at the Frye household. The moms can detect nervousness Keep them well fed and theyre content could be the theory behind most of the moms, except on game days when appetites are replaced by jangling nerves. Although the players dont express their nervousness outwardly, mom can usually tell out of instinct. Jack eats continuously, but on the day of the game he doesnt eat as much, says Mrs.

Donald Thoreson, mother of Escondidos big fullback. He gets nervous and thats good. Football players are either trying to gain weight or take it off. Thoreson, who also wrestles, has been trying to take a little off and San Marcos Bobby Gremett, not overly big for a linebacker, has been trying to gain. Hes a salad and vegetable eater, says Mrs.

Robert Gremmett, and his favorite food is home made bread. He eats a lot of ice cream, too. Jeff Flood of Escondido packs in plenty of fruit and' Orange Glens Dennis Huff, who builds up a big appetite working out at home, tries to steer clear of anything greasy, according to their moms. Not too much mention of pizza, tacos and other greasy tasty snacks from the moms polled, but those are probably the supplements they arent aware of. Usually, however, the growling noises heard on the football field aren going from stomach.

Theyre coming from the well-fed animals.

He also was a solid blocker for the winner. But it was Eldridge, aided by the blocking of teammates Juan Lira, Mike Lawton and others, who did in the proud Pirates. With his brother, Bill (a tackle who is captain of the offensive unit), sidelined for the season as the result of a neck injury suffered in an earlier victory over Carlsbad, Lloyd took charge.

Oceanside capitalized on the first of the three first-half miscues by San Marcos to score its initial touchdown. Pirate defensive lineman Pete Oess scooped up a stray pitchout by Gardner on the Oceanside 45-yard line on the Knights first series of downs and rambled to the San Marcos 28. Fullback Brad Stewart smashed over from the one-foot line eight plays later and Vale Simeta kicked the extra point to give the home club a 7-0 lead with 1:27 left to play in the opening period. The Knights worries werent over yet. A bad pass from center on a fourth-down punting situation set up Oceanside on the San Marcos 13-yard line, early in the second quarter and quarterback Kevin Sullivan scored four plays later on a keeper to make the cushion 13-0.

Eldridge, who gained 93 of his 141 yards in the first half, got Cont. On Page B-2, Col. 4 By GEORGE CORDRY T-A Managing Editor OCEANSIDE Dont count San Marcos High School out of the Avocado League football title race just yet. The Knights arent ready to roll over and play dead. Coach Bob Woodhouses charges are still very much alive and in the title picture, thanks to a pulsating 22-21 upset victory over previously undefeated Oceanside Friday night before 5,000 fans on the Pirates field.

It probably will be a long time before Oceanside coach Herb Meyer and his Pirates forget Knight halfback Lloyd Eldridge and the San Marcos power sweep. Woodhouse juggled his starting backfield, moving Eldridge from fullback to left half. The swift junior chewed up the vaunted Oceanside defense by gaining 141 yards in 25 carries (5.6 average) and scored 20 of his teams 22 points. The win was the third against two losses for the Knights, whose first five games all have been Avo outings, while the Pirates saw a four-game victory streak snapped and are now tied for first place with a 3-1 league record. This has to rank as one of our greatest victories, Woodhouse said after San Marcos held off a furious final-second charge by Oceanside to Pro Scores HIGH SCHOOL Avocado League Escondido 22, San Dieguito 0 Orange Glen 21, Fallbrook 0 San Marcos 22, Oceanside 21 Vista 20, Poway 13 Grossmont League Grossmont 21, Granite Hills 7 Helix 21, El Cajon 7 El Capitan 68, Mt.

That loss appears much more 'Costly after Orange Glen rolled over Fallbrook, 21-0, dominating every phase of a game that, but for two fumbles in the end zone, could have been 35-0. Had it not been for the forfeit loss to San Marcos, the Patriots could now be in a four-way tie for first place if they had beaten the Knights, who upset frontrunning Oceanside Friday. Orange Glen is now 2-2 in the Avo, 3-2 overall and alone in fifth place. Fallbrook slipped 2-3.

Three key mistakes by the Knights in the first half almost cost them their third league win but the juggling act by Woodhouse yielded rich dividends in the end. Woodhouse switched Eldridge to left half, brought in defensive back Ken Iacuaniello to play wingback and moved in linebacker Miguel Bolivar at fullback. Only quarterback Bob Gardner remained at his familiar position.

BDomres to start at QQB for Chargers CHICAGO Marty Domres, in his second year of professional football, wilL be the starting quarterback for the San Diego Chargers today against the Chicago Bears.

Veteran John Hadl has been the starter in the first four games of the season, but he leads in league in interceptions thrown and San Diego is winless with three losses and a tie. Running back Mike Garrett, just acquired from Kansas City, will suit up but is not expected to play. The game can be seen locally on KOGO Channel 10, beginning at 11 a.m. Chicago is a three-point favorite, despite the absence of running back Gayle Sayers. Doctor, Lawyer, Merchant, Chief?
