Details of the procedure require producers to have produced wheat on the farm in each of the three years — 1969, 1970 and 1971. Reliable proof of production — such as scale tickets, warehouse receipts etc. would need accompany the application with each crop year clearly identified. In order to assure consideration, producers must file a written request for this consideration within 15 days from the date indicated hereon.

Hurryin Hoosiers By J' Q* Fann

No matter what the big city papers say TED MCNULTY will be the starting quarterback on opening day if he is healthy. They have to write something and Rodney HARRIS is both exciting and is good copy for their readers and a fine quarterback. John Pont is NOT going to play “quarterback” checkers with a chance to win the conference race. He is going with the tough and experienced TED MCNULTY. Ted needed only another catch or two, out of the many that were dropped, to have taken the conference passing championship last year and was first going into the Purdue game. One of the biggest worries of the coaches seems to be taking good care of itself. The offensive tackles are coming around. The left tackle is one Dave Sungeon who started a lot of games last year but was just a little short. This year is a new ball game. Joe Pawlitsch, our fine tackle, always worked him over well in scrimmage last year. Joe is a better football player but unable

to do it this fall. Dave seems to have his thinking in good order and it is helping his play. He worked like a demon all summer and it is showing. He is also about 250 pounds. The guys behind him are looking good and this makes him a better player. At the other tackle slot is Greg McQuire at 275. Big and strong' but not yet proven as to consistency. He dqes some great things but is a little overweight. His strength is fascinating to watch. He loves that big downfield block which will a game someday. He was improved over the spring. If he is to match up in steadiness watch out. At this writing the backup men seem to be Bill Geiger, 6 ft. 4 and 255, and Ron Klenoski, a sophomore. Klenoski has technique and will be a good one. Sparhawk is another big sophomore and has strength. Any slip by the number one men and one of these could move in. Some of the interior linemen could be shifted to tackle for we are strong in the interior.

In the second match Doug Smith of Wawasee defeated Rich Shoemaker 10-8; In match number three Jeff Hendrix of Manchester stopped Brad Butler 10-5; Greg Fidler of Wawasee defeated Steve Ferringer 10-8 in the fourth match; And, in the fifth singles match Don Petry of Manchester stopped Dick Dull 10-8.
