Captain ...A year ago, after El Dorado High School had finished pulverizing the Wellington Crusaders 47-18, one of the fallen Crusaders mumbled, '‘Wait’ll we get them next year.Next year is tonight and, as far as 22 Duke seniors are concerned, it’s the last year . . , the last chance they’ll get to square the 12-mlt;/nth matter with the Wildcats.The two teams collide at 7:30 p.m. at Wellington AthleticField.It’s annual Homecoming tivities for Wellington and season’s biggest crowd is ticipated.fes-thean-Bidding farewell to their high scIkxjI gridiron careers will be: Captain Andy Brandt, Mel Hamburg, Tom Hansel, John Smith, Ralph Mendia, Maurice Dewberry, Andy Serrioz, Steve Thompson, Phil Feaster;Vincent Arriaza, Bob Tompkins, Merle Brand, Bob Mendoza, Bob Booth, Dean Headley, Dave Tapp, Bob Cantrell andRonnie Nugen.Another Crusader senior, notable by his absence, will watch from the sidelines as the curtain closes on a season dedicated to him.That would be co-captain Jimmy Ybarra, who played onlyone game this year, but meant so much to his teammates that they voted to dedicate the 1965 campaign to him.Jimmy, brilliant halfback equally adept at defense and offense, was seriously injured against Wichita East. Ybarra suffered a brain concussion that ended his football playing.Another Duke senior who’ll watch from the sidelines will be guard Duane McKinney, easily one of the state’s finest linemen. Duane broke a thumb last week during a practice session and missed the Augusta game, won 14-7 by Wellington.Halfback Greg? Miles isn’t likely to see much action. Greg, also a 12th grader* has a badly sprained ankle and has been a part-time performer for about three weeks.One bit of good news *his week was the possible return to action by senior guard Dennis Driscoll, out about three weeks with a badly bruised arm. Dennis is expected to see considerable action against the Wildcats.Coach Jim Hooten’s Wellington club, one of the year’s big surprises in the Ark Valley League, enters the contest witha 4-3-1 record. With only a few breaks down the line, they could have won the 1965 league championship.El Dorado, a small but very fast group, has a 6-2 mark heading into tonight’s finale. Tfv Wildcats are 4-2 in conference play and Wellington is 3-2-1.Last year’s humiliation was the worst st tback Wellington had suffered in years, and thebiggest thumping an El Dorado team had ever dlt;ishlt;d out to aCrusader eleven.Since the two teams first met in 1922, Wellington has claimed 26 victories, to 16 for F.I Dorado. The teams didn’t meetin 1930.El Dorado has a three-game victory streak going against Wellington. l ast time the Crusaders won was in 1961, 28-20. The Wildcats emerged victorious in 1962, by a score of 26-20, won the 1963 game 13-6 and annihilated Wellington last year.Wellington utilizes a wing T formation, while F.I Dorado is a smorgasbord type team. The Wildcats use a multiple offense, switching from a tight T to a sin ■!. wing to a spread to justabout anything else they care toswitch to.Wellington (Kan.) Daily News, F’riday, Nov. 12, 1965Page 6By HAL BOCKAssociated Press Sports WrltrThe college football season has been almost devoid of any major upset but have-nots such as Indiana and Pittsburgh hope anticipation and a little bit of luck can change the pattern this weekend.The Hoosiers go up against top-ranked Michigan State at East Lansing and their 2-6 record hardly qualifies them for the spoiler role. Pitt, also 2-6, has allowed 120 points in its last two routs — an average of an opposition point every minute — and takes on sixth-ranked Southern California at Los Angeles.But Indiana and Pitt have one thing going for them that most other underdogs don’t this weekend. Both Michigan State and USC can be forgiven for hxtking past Saturday’s games to Nov. 20 when the Spartans play Notre Dame in a game that could decide the national championship and the Trojans battle UCLA, hoping to gain the host role in the Rose bowl.Looking ahead has helped more than one underdog pull off an upset and it would seem to be one of the few hopes the Hoosiers and Panthers can muster for Saturday’s games.North Carolina, 4-5, is in much the same position against fourth-ranked Notre Dame which walloped Pitt 69-13 last week. The Irish have won five straight since losing their second game of the season againstPurdue and seem to be picking up momentum for their big clash with the Spartans nextSaturday.Michigan State, of course, hasthe incentive to wrap up its first Big Ten crown and insure itself of a trip to the Rose Bowl and with the firepower provided by Clint Jones’ explosive running, the Spartans are not expected to trip over the Hoosiers.USC’s power-running MikeGarrett is expected to have a field day against a Pitt line on which Notre Dame’s Bill Wolski scored five touchdowns a weekago.In other games involving TopTen teams, second-ranked Arkansas can clinch a tie for the Southwest Conference Crown against SMU and No. 3 Nebraska can wrap up a Big Eight tie by taking Oklahoma State.Fifth-rated Alabama plays South Carolina, No. 8 Tennessee plays Mississippi at Memphis, ninth - ranked Missouri is at home to Oklahoma, and Kentucky, No. 10, plays Houston in the Astrodome.Stanford, up against UCLA, is in a better position than the other three underdogs. The Indians have a respectable 4-2-1 record and even Uclan Coach Tommy Prothro is worried.“I’ve never seen a Stanford team that was easy to beat at Palo Alto,” Prothro frowned. The game matches two of the top quarterbacks in the west,UCLA’s Gary Beban and Stanford’s Dave Lewis.International S hakeup InHorse Racing I spparentLAUREL, Md.

And horse racing.The 1-2 finish of Diatome and Carvin in Thursday’s Washington, D.C., International race was a shocker of a sorts. The runner-Up lost by only a nose and beat a hopeful for best horse of the year in the United States, Roman Brcther, by a length.Yet the French pair isn’t acknowledged as the best in Europe.Geoffrey Watson, trainer of Diatome, of fact about the umph.“He won the international, but he’s still only the third best in Europe,” said Watson. “That Sea Bird and Reliance, they would still beat Diatome.”Diatome finished behind Sea Bird and Reliance in France’s Arc de Triomphe and other races. The front two were among several who declined or dropped out of the International.Diatome had won only two races this year. Jean Boutil-lier’s Carvin had only one minor victory and went off the longestRoman Brother was $3.20 forthird.Canada’s George Royal took down fourth money.
