Football the most popular sport, opened the athletic season. At rain-drenched Butler Stadium, Coach Johnny Peoples' COLTS used a blocked punt and a pair of long- distance pass plays from quarter- back Lester Gillespie to split end Glenn Edwards for a three touch- down output and an l8-7 triumph over Jones. Colts Corral lones, 18-7 The defensive unit held Jones to a grand total of 29 yards, whereas Worthing gained 136 total yards. l 32 Football LEFT: Coach Oliver Brown explains a defen- sive maneuver to Melvin Gentry. Worthing Clips Yates, 2-0. BOTTOM, RIGHT: The defensive team that held Yates to a grand total of 51 yards en route to a 2-O victory. The two points came in the opening minutes of the game as the football sailed over the punter's head into the endzone where the punter was tackled for a safety, the only points of the game. The game did have an exciting moment, a 75 yard pass-and-run scoring play from Gillespie to Lewis was called back because the COLTS were penalized for being off-side on the play. LEFT: Glenn Edwards shows perfect form as he makes an excellent pass reception and goes on for good yardage in the Colts' romp over Sterling. Colts Race by Raiders, 26-7 The OFFENSIVE RECEIVERS for 1974 really did their thing by aver- aging over 200 yards per game in receptions for the season. The most yards gained in a game were 264 in the contest against Sterling. The highlight of the game was a spectac- ular 79 yard pass-and-run scoring play from Gillespie to Glenn Edwards. The Raiders tried to ride a stubborn Colt, but were thrown off 26-7.
