f ~J 2 t i i i" I J i t ) I i I ) Y* ,4 ~ I 1 e The Hinton Bobcats were defeated by the Peterstown Pirates 33-6 be- fore a packed house and alight drizzle where the Pirates seemed to domi- nate the game from the start. The Bobcats were led offensively by sophmore Matt Redes with 77 yards on 7 carries. Quarterback Steven Brown returned a punt for 75 yards for the only Hinton score of the evening. Defensively the cats were led by Eric Frazier with I0 tackles and a fumble recovery. Brown inter- cepted a pass in the second half of the game. The Hinton Bobcats played their firstJV football game in several years against Peterstown yesterday. This gave the younger cats some playing time which will help out in their varsity careers. Coach Richmond is hoping to have several JV contests this year. The Bobcats, now 2-3 on the sea- son, will battle Greenbrier West Friday night. West are 4-0 on the season and the cats will have a tough contest on the road against the Cavaliers. A new weekly article will be the predictions ofradio stations WMTD sports broadcasters Joe Blanken- ship, Wayne Ryan and Roger Hodge. I will pick area games to choose the winners.

Jemar Ford scored on a" 5yd. run for the Bobcats. Defensively the cats were led by Donald Martin. Jason Pack and Jemar Ford with each player having eleven tackles. This was the first win for first year head coach Ron Lilly and assistant Norman Farley• With this game they are 1-2 for the season. They played Trap Hill yesterday and will play Roncev- erte Thursday at 7 pm. Talcott Jr. High Pirates again played an outstanding game only TO come up short on the scoreboard. Talcott was defeated by Greenville 28 to 14. Talcotts scoring was Shawn Mann with a 5 yd. reception from Quarterback Brad Wykle. Robert Cook continues to play well and scored a touchdown on a 3 yd. run. Jason Ballengee caught a pass from Brad Wykle for a two-point conver- sion. Talcott will play Gap Mills Thurs., 6 pm at the SummersCounty Athletic Facility. BASKETBALL Girls Elementary Basketball isin full swing with the six county teams preparing for the October 2nd open- ing games. The young ladies 4th, 5th and 6th grades from Talcott, Pipestem, Jumping Branch, Sand- store, Bellepoint and Hinton Area have been practicing for about three weeks. The elementary program is the frst step in preparing these girls to become future star players. JR. HIGH Since starting my weekly articles I have had several opportunities to view outstanding basketball games, but on Monday night, with a stand- ing room only crowd, and two fierce cross county rivalries I viewed the best girls jr. high game ever. The two teams involved, the Talcott Pi- rates and the Hinton Lady Cats, fought to a 52-50 score. The Talcott Pirates coming out on top and im- proving their season record TO 4 wins and 0 losses. The game started with quite a few turnovers from both team s. My feelings were that the big game produced nerves on both sides. Talcott was led by Patricia Sea with 23 points and 5 steals, Jenny Mann had 16 points, 13rebounds, 3 blocked shots and Erica Williams had 10 points, 9 rebounds and 2 steals. Susan Turner also had 3 points and 4 steals for the victory. Hinton Jr. High was led by Jan- ette Yopp with 16 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and a blocked shot. Cheryl Cooper had 10 points, 4 re- bounds, I assist and 2 steals coming offthe bench for Hinton. Other scores for this team were Joetta Cales, 9 rmints; F. rrah Lilly, R points; and Tabitha Lilly, 7 points. The outcome of the game, I felt, was the good play by the Taloctt bench and the fact that Hinton only shot 25% from the foul line to Talcott's 46%. Jenny Mann played an outstanding game under the boards and Patricia Sea handled the Hinton press like a seasoned vet- eral~. In other action last week the Talcott Pirates defeated the Mercer Christian school 43-25. Leading scores: Jenny Mann, 11; Patricia Sea, 11; and Tonya Gunter, 10. The lady Pirates will played Greenville yesterday and will play Gap Mills Oct. 1. The Hinton Jr. High Lady Cats will play Gap Mills tonight, Peter- stown Sept. 27 and Shady Spring Oct. 1 HINTON LADY BOBCATS The Lady Cats had two games this week and found themselves with one victory and one lose. Their sea- son record now stands 4 wins and 3 losses. They also lost the services of Kim Wynes with a chipped ankle in the Greebirer East game Thursday night• Earlier in the week against Beckley, Kim scored 31 points, had 9 rebounds, I assist and 6 steals in a game that saw her go over the 1,000 point goal in her three years as a lady cat. With six and a half minutes left in the East game she had scored forty points, had 7 rebounds and 7 before injuringher ankle. Kim will see a specialist today to see just how much action she will miss. With 7th & 8th GRADE LADY BOBCATS DOWN TALCOq[T The Hinton Lady Bobcats 7th and 8th Grade team raised their record to 3 and I on the season with a 36 to 20 victory over Talcott Monday night Sept. 17. Lindsay Keaton led Hin- ton to the win with 14 points, five steals, and six rebounds in only two quarters of play. The Lady Bobcats. led 15 to 7 at the half before taking over in the third quarter to up their lead to 28 to 15 after three periods. In the final quarter of play Kristi Clark scored five of Hinton's eight points in holding off the Lady Pi- rates and capturing the 36 to 20 victory.

Approximately 300 teachers at- tended. The purpose of EcoTheater's presentation was to demonstrate how ECO's process can be used within the school system in the teach- ing and preserving of local culture and histery. Martha Asbury-Faulkner ex- plained how Ecotheater works with young people in teaching interviews skills, writing a story from those interviews, and usingimprovisation to polish those stories into final scenes tobe presented to the public. Scenescan be a reflection of their life or a preserving of their elder's way of life. Scenes are as timely as today or as ancient as yesterday's genera. tions.
