The 5:30 p.m. controlled teuton of pad-popping will give the two Lone Star Conference teams a first-hand look at each other before meeting later in the season for real. The scrimmage will also feature a confrontation of several members of Brownwood High's 1969-70 state championship teams. Fullback Gary Barron and defensive back James (Squirt) Thompson are playing for HPC while dotting ACC's roster are Jan Brown (5-10, IIS), a pro prospect at cornerback; tackle Odel Crawford tackle Garry Moore (6-2, 205) and linebacker John Isom (5-10, IK). Barron, Brown, Moore and Isom were all-state picks while at BHS.

Besides ACC and HPC, the McMurry Indians no longer members of the LSC also will be involved in the scrimmage.

According to reports from the Key City, ACC has three quarterbacks who are throwing well in ore-season workouts. "We're real pleased with our quarterbacks," says Bullington. "Out passing game is looking better." If that means the 'Cats can still throw as well as they did in the much-heraded Jim Undaey era, Jacket defensive secondary personnel could have a busy go of it Saturday afternoon.

Bullington and offensive backfieU coach Ted Sitton are working at quarterback with two-year letterman Clint Longley of Littleton, sophomore transfer Raymond Crosier of Mineral Wells and freshman redshirt Jim Reese of Abilene High. The Jackets have quar- terback answers to at (east two of those Purple hopefuls. They are sophomore Dennis Peel of San Antonio Highlands and newcomer Rick Worley of Oklahoma City. Head coach Dean Slayton rates both Peel and Worley as top-flight passers. What it all adds up to is a possible aerial circus shaping up between ACC and HPC in the Saturday get-together.

He said progress is "a little slower than we had hoped for" in teaching offense, defense and tuning to freshmen and junior college athletes.

However, he points to better team speed, quickness, site and mobility in predicting ACC's st year in the Lone Star Conference to be perhaps its best since the 9-24 team of 1970. Several offensive linemen, being tutored by offensive line coach Don Smith, drew praise from Bullington. They are freshman tackle Chuck Lawson, 6-3, 240, Lampasas; sophomore tight end Greg Stirman, 210, Abilene High; 6-2, 215-pound junior guard Mike Layfield of Fort Worth Richland; guard Brian Smith from San Bernardino (Calif.)

775-496. New Pice OB has dark memories of Florida stay A I i By MICHAEL A. LUTZ Associated Press Sports Writer HOUSTON (AP) Ask Fred Geisler where things started to go wrong for him at Florida State and he might tell you how he and six teammates were arrested and almost charged with petty larceny. Or Geisler might tell about the time he says FSU Coach Larry Jones told his mother he would see to it that Geisler never played a down of college football if he transferred and then refused to release Geisler from his scholarship agreement. Geisler might even go into some of the pre-spring training conditioning drills he says Seminole athletes had to endure.

Needless to say, Geisler was fed up with Florida State when he decided to transfer to Rice University prior to last season and sit out a year to become eligible. After a red-shirt season, and sitting out last year at Rice, Geisler finally starts his collegiate career Sept. 15 when he'll quarterback Rice against Houston. But memories of his years at Florida State are dark indeed. Geisler said he and six teammates were arrested during his freshman year when they were caught stealing some flags that had been draped around Tallahassee, Fla.

during the gubernatorial inauguration celebration. Geisler told the story with an 'no sir' and about that time the other guy came running around the corner waving a flag." Geisler said he and his teammates were taken to the police station and told they would be charged with petty larceny. Geisler said an assistant coach finally got them out of Jail and charges never were filed. 'I'm sure Jones thought I was amusing twist but he said the a troublemaker, but it was just incident also might had started the opposite," Geisler said. "I his relationship with Jones on the wrong note.

The incident occurred on Jones' second day as FSU coach. "When it came out in the paper, they called us the Magnificent Seven," Geisler said. "We thought it would be great to have one of those flags to put in our room. "We all piled into a pickup truck and headed downtown. We parked and each of us was supposed to come back with a flag.

Well, we all came back except this one guy and while we were waiting for him, a policeman drove around the corner. "He asked us if we had been taking any of the flags. We said never even got a traffic ticket before," The flag incident occurred during Geisler's freshman year at FSU and his situation went downhill from there. Geisler said when Jones learned that he was considering transfering, Jones called his mother one day while Geisler and his father were out. Geisler said his mother told Jones she thought her son would transfer to Rice and Jones told her he would see to it that Geisler never played college ball.

UUOVICMVUItllTCIEOIT MO MSI UlllflK CHMtf 1Q I UII 10 Oilers trim four players HOUSTON (AP)- The Houston Oilers let go four players Tuesday but picked up another, then managed to whisk two of the players they waived onto the tasi squad.

Cut were Richard Cheek, a third-year offensive guard, backup center Guy Murdock, and rookies Kelly Cochrane and Shelby Jordan. Cochrane, a quarterback, and Shelby, an offensive lineman, cleared waivers and were put on the Oilers' Uii squad. It is a familiar spot for Cochrane who spent last year in the same place. Also the club announced they picked up off waivers Wally Dempsey, a linebacker from the New York Jets who played eight years for Saskatchewan in the Canadian Football League. Dempsey, 29, went to the Jets after playing out his option last year and signed as a free agent.

Cheek, acquired off injured waivers from Buffalo, has been used sparingly in exhibition play. Murdock became a starter for the Oikrs last year with four games left in the season after an injury to Calvin Hunt and was namad to the NFL AU-Noakit team. INSUMNCE rM.ttf«tll.
