Stratford puts
streak on line
United Press International
Defending Class AAAA champion
Houston Stratford puts the state’s
longest high school winning streak
on the line tonight against Port
Neches-Groves.
Coach Oscar Cripps readily ad
mits he wants to continue the win
ning ways begun by his team in 1977
but he also admits that the next two
weeks are very important in the
final outcome this year for fourth-
ranked Stratford.
“It’s our goal to begin this week to
play for the state championship, and
to do that means we want to win
every game,” said Cripps. “But we
also realize that we have a very
young team this year.
“And, what we learn against Port
Neches this week and against La
Porte next week is going to tell us a
whole lot about ourselves,” he said.
“Playing two great teams right off
the bat can certainly help you when
you get to district.”
Stratford won its final four games
in 1977 and 15 straight last year to
run up a 19-game win streak. The
four victories in 1977 came after a
district loss, and that one defeat
kept Stratford out of the playoffs
until 1978.
“I believe we have the quality of a
team this year needed to win the
state championship, and that’s what
we re going to be out to do when we
begin play Friday,” Cripps said. “I
just hope our young players will be
ready to go against the passing of
Port Neches and the running of La
Porte. If they can, I think well be
ready for anything this year.”
While Stratford is out to extend
its winning ways, Abilene Cooper
will be at Wichita Falls to prove last
week’s 50-14 victory over
Brownwood wasn’t a fluke. The
Cougars gained the No. 1 rating in
Class AAAA with the Brownwood

BoUermahers still teasing .
UCLA to upset Purdue?
United Press International
For the better part of the last
dozen years Purdue University’s
football team has been as big a tease
as a row of burlesque strippers.
With the exception of last season,
when the Boilermakers posted a
9-2-1 record, Purdue has had a
reputation of not fulfilling its poten
tial, despite perennially fielding a
plethora of talent that has included
the likes of Leroy Keyes, Mike
Phipps, Bob Griese and Otis
Armstrong.
Purdue started to shed its image
last season when Coach Jim Young
guided the Boilermakers to a Peach
Bowl berth (and a subsequent
victory over Georgia Tech) and this
year there is talk of the team’s mak
ing it to the Rose Bowl as the Big
Ten Conference champions.
The Boilermakers began im
pressively last Saturday when they
crushed Wisconsin, 41-20, behind
quarterback Mark Herrmann’s four
touchdown passes.
UCLA is Purdue’s opponent
Saturday night at Los Angeles and
we think rabid Purdue fans may
need a few boilermakers when the
final result comes in. We re picking
this one as our UPSET SPECIAL
with the Bruins containing
Herrmann enough to pull out a
20-16 victory.
Here’s how we see the major
games across the nation:
The East —
Penn St. 42 Rutgers 3 — Joe
Patemo always takes it easy on the
Scarlet Knights.
Pittsburgh 27 Kansas 14 —
Panthers could be one of nation’s
best offensive teams if passing game
clicks.
Tennessee 30 Boston College 7 —
The fruits of Coach Johnny Majors
labors should begin to ripen this
season.
West Virginia 24 Syracuse 17 —
One preseason magazine carried
both teams in its bottom 10.
The South
Georgia 40 Wake Forest 0 —
Bulldogs have a fierce bite this sea
son.
Maryland 22 Clemson 10 —
Terps out to avenge loss to Tigers
last season which cost them the
ACC crown.
North Carolina St. 30 Virginia 15
— Wolfpack’s Dwight Sullivan
seems like the perfect replacement
for Ted Brown.
Florida St. 19 Arizona St. 10 —
Seminoles may not be as good as
everyone thought but neither are
Sun Devils.
The Midwest
Michigan 20 Notre Dame 14 —
Wolverines have too much speed for
Irish.
Misouri 42 Illinois 9 — Tigers
think they’re as good as Oklahoma.
Ohio St. 31 Minnesota 13 — Buc
keyes’ wide-open offense will be
puzzling for inexperienced Gopher
defense.
Wisconsin 23 Air Force 9 — Bad
gers much better than they looked
against Purdue.
The Midlands
Nebraska 37 Utah St. 7 — Hus-
kers’ defense among nation’s best.
Oklahoma 43 Iowa 10 — Billy
Sims sets off on quest for second
straight Heisman Trophy.
Iowa St. 35 Bowling Green 11 —

Here’s how to eliminate 18 hours
of study time each week.
If your study technique is typical, you spend 26
hours each week buried in your books. 66-2/3%
of this study time is wasted on an antiquated set
of procedures. Procedures that have remained
unchanged for over a hundred years.
What’s worse, Vou presume there is nothing
you can do to improve. The prevailing attitude
on campus is “\bu either have it or you don’t!”
What nonsense!
Evelyn Wood course. The answers were varied,
but mostly on the same wave length: 1) They
wanted to reduce their study time; 2) They
wanted to feel more confident in class, more in
control; and 3) They wanted to learn more, to
achieve better grades.
At the end of the course, each student was
asked if his goals were met. Over 95% said yes.
The other 5% received their tuition back
Any student with average intelligence can im
prove his reading and study skills at least 3
times with a) better techniques, b) expert coach
ing, and c) controlled practice. And he can do it
quickly —in time to dramatically increase his
grades in the current semester
For this is precisely what the Evelyn Wood
course offers, and backs it up with an iron-clad,
no-nonsense, written guarantee.
Why Do Most Students
Read Slowly?
THE GUARANTEE
Any student who attends every Evelyn Wood
class, completes the required practice, yet does
not improve reading and study skills at least 3
times will be eligible to receive a full tuition refund.
Over 1 9 000,000 Graduates
Over 95% SUCCESS!
Since 1959, three Presidents have invited Evelyn
Wood instructors to teach their staffs how to read
better. All in all, the list of famous graduates
reads like Who’s Who:
Most students have no idea what their reading
ability is. If they are typical, they read about 300
words per minute (or one page of a novel). Why
is it that students read at virtually the same speed,
considering how very different they all are?
The cause can be traced back to the First
Grade. When we were taught to read, we were
asked to read out loud, word-by-word. Later, in
the Second Grade, we were asked to stop saying
each word out loud. But we never really did. Fact
is, you’re saying these words right now—not out
loud, but to yourself, one word at a time!
This means you read only as fast as you talk—
about 250 to 300 words per minute. (As if to
prove the point, Guiness’s Book of World Records
lists John F. Kennedy as delivering the fastest
speech ever at 327 words per minute).
old-fashioned speed reading technique of picking
out key phrases. In the Evelyn Wood course,
skimming is a dirty word!
The PRICE BOILS DOWN
TO $2 AN HOUR.
Read what the University of Illinois student
paper said (Ed Sejud): “If a student avails himself
of all the facilities by the (Evelyn Wood) Institute
and attends all the class sessions, the price boils
down to only about $2 an hour, cheaper than any
private tutoring you’ll ever find. Spread over four
years, the course can save thousands of study
hours and can probably affect a boost i n a student’s
grade-point average. Assignments which once
took days can be accomplished in a matter of
hours, leaving much more time for other pursuits.
The Institute estimates that it can save average
students 350 hours of study time each semester—
probably an understatement”.

How Do You Learn To Read
Faster? With The Same
Comprehension?
At the Mini-Lesson you will find out how the
Evelyn Wood course eliminates the habit of read
ing only one word at a time. How you can learn
to read 3 or 4 words instead of only one. To see
how natural this is, look at the dot in the middle

EVELYN WOOD
MINI-LESSON THIS WEEK
Don’t take anybody’s word for it—not ours,
not anybodys. We developed the Mini-Lesson
so you could make up your own mind about
the course. The Mini-Lesson lasts only 1 hour.
During that short time, you have a chance
to try your hand at it—to find out if it really
can do the job for you. In 60 minutes over
80% of the audience increases reading speed.
Just a little, but enough to know what it’s like.
At the Mini-Lesson you will find out how the
Evelyn Wood technique handles difficult text
book material. How it improves memory and
concentration. How it makes reading a
pleasure instead of a chore. Let’s face it, if
the Evelyn Wood course is for real, you ought
to know about it.
