King Rushes for 206 Yards as Duncan Bows erman made it three straight with a 14-0 whitewashing of Duncan last night. The Demons, still without a victory or a touchdown after three starts, nevertheless turned in a sharp performance against the Bengals, and will get tougher every week. Gene Corretto doesn’t have as many offensive guns as he used to tote, but the Bengals are just short of tremendous on defense. They blanked Ada 13-0, opening week, and then turned back power ful Putnam City, 12-6, last week. With Gary King around, they don't need many more backs. When the Bengals want to move, King just tucks the football under his arm and sets sar round the ends. He gained 206 of Norman's 300 rushing yards last night, and started them off to victory with a 47-yard scoring burst. The Bengals, stuck mostly to their split-T last night, but the hunch here is that when the going gets rough they'll switch to their single wing with the jet-heeled King in the tailback role Everybody's hero at Durant is Southeastern’s new football coach, Bob Thomas,who has the Savages away to a splendid start. They've whipped Memphis Naval Base, and Austin College and then staggered the collegiate conference last week when they fought Panhandle to a 21-21 standoff V-A Coach Bates Healdton Best in Loop GB OMAS, who has bounced around the state coaching scene for a couple of dozen years, is doing the face-lifting on Southeastern’s football program with practically the same athletes who finished near the bottom of the state league last year. The Savages have a couple of nifty bunkers in Duke Christian and Charley Johnson, and two fine receivers and running backs in Jerry Bailey and Granville Chandler, Bob Smith, who turned out winners at Davis before moving to Velma-Alma, says that Healaton won't be beaten in the GC Conference. “They're big and strong, and they have the fastest set of backs I've seen in these parts in a long time,” Smith said after Healaton had edged his Comets, 14-7, last week. The area player they're all talking about is Ryan’s 190-pound quarterback, Doug Cathey, who engineered the Cowboys’ 28-20 upset of Ringling last week. That, incidentally, was Ringling’s first regular season defeat since 1960. A newspaper account of Ardmore’s 32-0 victory over Capitol Hill in 1927 gave a vivid account of an injury to the Tigers’ star halfback, Mike Massad, ‘‘Three Capitol Hill players stomped Massad’s nose with their cleats. It was broken in three places, but the Black Ace taped it up, and returned to the game, the story read, Lawton Product Starred in Upset of Baylor YRON BEAVER, the brilliant quarterback on Lawton's 1956 powerhouse, was largely responsible for Houston's stunning 19-0 victory over Baylor last week. Beaver intercepted five Baylor passes for an all-time school record. Beaver plays only on the Cougars’ defensive unit. He trans ferred to Houston following a fine junior college career at Cameron. State junior college officials, who ordered Cameron to forfeit all its victories last year, may force OU to forfeit that 7-3 win to Syracuse since Joe Don Looney is a transfer from Cameron. Bob Williams, the little guy who coached Lawton cage teams many years, is now an assistant in all sports at Shawnee. He's charting defenses for new grid coach Jerry Harbour, and will do the same for cage mentor Jerrell Chesney. Williams confided that he’s happy to be back in the coaching fame, and that the year he spent out of it was the most miserable of his life... There isn't a better punter in state high school football than Kenneth Odom, the guy who dooms ‘em out of the park for Ard more. Douglass.
