THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS Paid circulation leader *Winner of]22 state and national awardsforjournalism excellence in 2006 77th Year, Vol.27 Thursday, October 26, 2006 Macclenny, Florida 50O Judgeship race on November 7 Both candidates claim experience a ~me f r^Yn cf~ BY JIM McGAULEY Press Publisher- The top two primary finish- ers will face off November 7 to decide the next Group 4 circuit judgeship, a ,post vacated b\ retirement. Stephen Pennypacker. 49, of Gaines- ville, the top voter getter Sep- tember 5 among the six- counties that make up the Eighth Cir- cuit, has con- centrated on outlying coun- ties since then. and just this week picked up the endorse- ment of the third-place fin- ishei.

Mr. Griffis. who describes himself as a farmer and Stephen i small business owner in addition to having a private law practice, has to make up the ground. .Mr. Pennypacker ended up with 61.6 percent of the circuit vote in September more than doubling the tally of both Mr. Griffis and Ms. Sherman. -- "I am the most qualified can- didate because I am the most experienced in criminal court and jury trials, with broad ex- perience in civil, family and ap- pellate court," candidate Griffis responded recently to a question-, >m0 Zcoxrz MO-" <1.t --i 06 naire published in the Florida Times-Union. "I am also the only candidate with a successful private law practice." Mr. Griffis' claim of "most experienced" may be a bit of a reach in light of his opponent's past tenure as a private prac- tice, lawyer, as- sistant state at- torney and. for more than three years recently. .as a general magistrate in effect a judge in child depen- dency cases. , ..

He's gar- nered dozens of endorsements from lawyers around the cir- cuit, from the current state at- torney Bill Cer- *vohne, his pre- decessor, and ex-gubernato- rial candidate Rod Smith, the Fraternal Order of Police, the North-Central Florida Labor Council and, closer to home, pack' Baker County Sheriff Joey Dobson. The Gainesville Sun, in an October 18 endorsement, lauded ,Mr. Pennypacker for his experi- ence and said he was clearly the superior candidate. Among endorsements collected by Mr. Griffis are the Florida Po- lice Benevolent Association, Gator Fire Council, Gainesville firemen and the Starke police chief. Two Union County business- men, Marvin Pritchett and Avery Roberts, also tossed in support for Mr. Griffis.

She has just put the finishing touches on a group of wood pumpkin figures she was commissioned to design and paint for a front yard Halloween scene in downtown Macclenny. "I call this group the Happy Pumpkin Family," Ms. Nelson1 says smiling. "My friend Mark Lyons always produces the wood cutouts for me..Then I get down to the business of deciding the colors and details." For the Jacksonville native whonowresides in Glen St. Mary with her family, every stroke of the brush is an affirmation of life and faith. In 1997, seven months. into her first pregnancy, Carol Nelson suffered a massive stroke, the result of an undetected ,blood clot. in her brain. She lay in Baptist Medical Center, the right side of her body completely paralyzed, her speech reduced to unintelligible groans. "I kept telling my husband that I wanted to go home," said NMs. Nelson. "But he couldn't understand what I was saying. It was such a helpless feeling." Friends and family manned round-the-clock shifts to help care for and feed her. That allowed her husband, who drove a truck, to keep his job. The stroke caused the baby, a girl, to deliver two weeks early. Luckily, she delivered normally with no complications. Again friends and family stepped in to help care for little Heather. The doctors weren't hopeful about the chances of Ms. Nelson's recovery. When she was able to sit up in a wheel chair, her husband rolled her down to see one of the doctors. She remembers him looking at her file and then stating that it would be a good idea for her to make a will. "That was when it finally hit me the reality of my own mortality,", Ms. Nelon says. They managed to visit a lawyer and get a will drafted. After returning home, postpartum depression set in. She still required caregivers around the clock. Her appetite disappeared. A pic-line (intra- venous catheter) fed a blood- thinning medication into her system because the blood clot was still present. "I couldn't eat because the depression took a%%ay my desire for food," Ms. Nelson remembers. "I was terrified of losing consciousness because the blood clot might kill me in my sleep. It was a terrible time." One night when she felt the lowest point of despair, she asked God to intervene either take her permanently or let her eat and sleep so she could try to get better. (See page 2) Grandjury hears Dressel case November 1 The Baker County Grand Jury is expected to hear the prosecution case November 1 against Bobbie Dressel, accused in the shooting death of ex-girl- friend Cindy Below at her south Macclenny trailer home on October 16. Mr. Dressel was returned to Macclenny the after- noon of October 18 from Liberty County, Ga. south of Savannah. He was arrested there at an Interstate 95 exit late on the same day of the shooting of Ms. Below, 30, the mother of his 1-year-old son. The accused, 29, made a first appearance shortly after returning here and is now in the Duval County jail without bond. He is charged with first-degree murder. This will be the second murder case presented to the current grand jury. It indicted Melinda Smith and Steve Arnold in September for the stabbing death of Dorsey Bennett, 68, of Cuyler on August 12. Both are in county jail charged also with first- degree murder.

Council opts for Florida pension BY JIM MNcGAULEY Press Publisher Crediting itself for a job well done and declaring the move will entice others into public service. the Glen St. Mary Town Council voted October 17 to join up with the Florida retirement system. In doing so, the board voted unanimously to include itself in the deal. "We've worked hard," said Councilman Woody Crews, the most vocal in calling for a mo- tion to have Glen kick into the state system. Councilmen also cited the fact that longtime main- tenance worker Joe Raulerson retired recently without a pen- sion, and offering it from here out is an incentive for both exist- ing and incoming workers. Other than the five council members. Glen St. Mary has but three others on the payroll. Mayor Juanice Padfgett. \ho had been corresponding with Florida's Division of Retirement prior to last week's vote. said a decision will come later on whether Glen funds an amount equal to 9 percent of gross pay to the present or simply begins par- ticipation on at a future date. John Kucz' anski,. spokesman for the Department of Manage- ment Services in Tallahassee, said compensation for past ser- vice with public funds depends on how Glen pays its employees. Until the time the system is put into place, however, the maxi- mum pay-in is 9 percent. "They can buy credit into the system, but we'd need a clarifi- cation on how they are paid," said Mr. Kuczwanski, explain- ing that if compensation in the past has been salary plus other consideration it complicates the issue. Councilmen make $200 monthly; Mayor Padget $1833. Council members likely qual- ify for the elected official rate where Glen kicks in 12 percent and retirement benefits accrue at an .accelerated 3 percent annu- ally. They become vested in ten years, then draw 3 percent per year for each year of participa- tion, based on average pay for the final five years. In other business last week, the Council formalized its con- tract with newly hired town at- torney Joel Foreman of Lake City, replacing Phyllis Rosier of Starke who is now on the circuit bench. Mr. Foreman, who briefed the board on a number of pending matters that night, will charge a $500 monthly retainer that in- cludes meeting attendance and two hours. Additional hours are at $150 each. Mr. Foreman recommended the town adopt a policy allowing existing deep wells where they already exist on parcels connect- ing to the central water system. Mayor Padgett cited two cases where that is the case now, The attorney cautioned against enforcement woes that follow ambiguous policy in this area, and suggested it be included in Glen St. Mary's utility ordinance. The provision prohibits use of existing wells for uses other than irrigation when residences are connected to the central water (See page 2) Have a safe &, happy Halloween October 31!

I'm speaking of Cynthia Below, who was brutally murdered at her home by her es- tranged boyfriend Bobbie Dressel. "CindN Poo," as I called her, was a great person. She. was a corrections officer, a friend and a mother to two precious babies. Cynthia didn't S v want to leave us so soon, and she tried in vain to stop the person who was trying to take her from us. Bobbie Dressel was no stranger to the law when Cindy first asked for a restraining order against him in July-of this year. Bobbie violated the restraining order numerous times. " He once threw a brick through Cind\ 's windshield as she left work; ,another time he h fired an AK-47 assault rifle in her yard while she was, inside. And then there were the phone calls hundreds of threatening phone calls. Bobbie Dressel \ a:s arrested in August for \iolating the restraining order, and subse- quentl\ released on bond with the stipulation that he Near a GPS tracking device around his ankle. The de\ ice does two things: first. Bobbie Dressel's location anywhere in the world is available to the Sheriff's Office 24 hoIurs a day, seven days a week: second, if he went to any location that Cind was associated with the monitoring company could ^0 call the Sheriff's OffKie. With a restraining older in place and Bcbbie Dressel wearing the GPS device, Cind - should have been safe. S. ,. That wasn't the case at all. On October 15. Bobbie Dressel called Cindy over 30 times threatening to kill her. C CindN reported these incidents to the Sheriff's Office and a report was made. This is the point at which Sheriff Joey Dobson had the opportunity, to sa\e a beautiful oung mother of two from a horrible fate at the hands of a lunatic. \%e all know w hat happened less than 24 hours after a report was made to the Sheriff's Office. Cind\ Below \\as murdered. Here is whfat should have happened. When C, nthia called the sheriffon the 15th to re- port death threats had been made. the BCSO should ha\ e called thlie monitoring company and learned Bobbie Dressel's location. If-he was out of the county, a \ arrant could ha\e been obtained so any agency\ could pick him up. Ajudge has the power to denN bond to any person he or she deems a threat to the pub- lic. Bobbie Dressel demonstrated time and time again lie was a serious threat to Cindy. Unfortunately, these simple steps weren't taken b\ Sheriff Dobson, and the result \was a tragedy . Sheriff Joey Dobson stood in front of the television cameras on the morning of Octo- ber 16\ while Cindy was 1\ ing dead on the floor of her home and told reporters two things I \ ill al ways remember. First. he said, "W\Ve can't place a deputy out here at this house 24 hours a day, seven days a week...." I think in a situation like this with a person like Bobbie Dressel it would l have been a smnnall price to pa3 to post a deputy at Cindy "s home until Bobbie was located. With the GPS tracking bracelet he would ha\ e been found quickly. Second. Sheriff Dobson said. "As any person knows, a law enforcement agency can only do what we can do." I would agree with that statement if his office had done everything that could have been done. In the case of Cindy Below, Sheriff Dobson abandoned the basic duty he ha,4 to protect human life, and there is no excuse fdr his' inaction.' , Perhaps if Sheriff Dobson had worked as hard on Cindy's case as he works ,.R sN politics, maybe Cindy. would still be with us.

' Richard Luallen, 27, was found hiding in a closet at the residence of his aunt off Faye Road north of Macclenny. Depu- ties had gone there late that eve- ning after recovering a stolen pickup truck nearby across from a residence occupied by' the sus- pect's mother. Deputy Greg Burnsed was enroute to another call near Twin Bridges on SR 121 just after 6:00 pm when he clocked a noth- bound car at 108 mph. then gave chase after it quickly turned east onto private property toward a dead end. When the officer pulled up behind the 1995 Ford its driver, later identified as Mr. Luallen, fled into nearby woods. Passen- ger Thonias Brock 19, of Mac- clenny was taken into custody and told Deputy Burnsed the car belonged to an aunt who was out of town. Later that evening, Marvin Lauramore reported a 1993 Ford pickup stolen from his residence off Leonard Norman Road not far from where Mr. Luallen was S last seen. Police were aware of a resi- dence off Violet Lane near 121 where the suspect had been stay- ing, and Lt. Glen Gnann that evening found the pickup parked nearby. Deputy Brad Dougherty, who found Mr. Luallen in the closet, said the suspect admitted to be- ing wanted in Ohio, and said that is the reason he ran from Deputy Burnsed. He was booked for grand theft of the pickup, fleeing po- lice, speeding and having an open container of alcohol in the Ford. Charges against Mr. Brock a closet pend. In another arrest involving a warrant, Earl Griffin, 50, of Jacksonville was taken into cus- tody after police questioned himn about suspicious behavior at the Citgo store on CR 125 south of Glen St. Mary.

He returned in ten minutes with what Mr. Nelson thought %were both key sets and they conversed for a time before the suspect left. NMoments later., he drove axwaN in a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado pickup valued at $17.000. Mr. Nelson said it headed east on NMc- Iver after leaving the lot at the intersection with South 6th.

Just before leaving, the sus- pect conversed about a homicide that occurred in southMacelenny that morning, and claimed to be related to victim Cindy Below. In other vehicle thefts, Denise Harrington, 29, of Macclenny is named in a criminal complaint for taking a 2006 PT Cruiser from a residence on South 9th overnight on October 19. The vehicle belongs to David Garcia of Forest Park, Ga, who was visiting in the area with daughter Tiffan) Garcia, an ac- quaintance of Ms. Harrington. Ms. Garcia told police she awakened that morning to find the vehicle gone.' She and the suspect had spent the night at the residence, and had argued before retiring. Ms. Harrington was found with the car the following day in White Springs, Fla. She will be charged with grand theft. A 17-year-old from Perry, Fla. was arrested north of Macclenny the afternoon of October 17 seat-' ed in a 1993 Ford pickup he al- legedly took from a relative. Sgt.

Lead Inspector Larry Crews just flipped the switch that operates the electric/hydraulic powered lift in the maintenance bay. A roaring sound fills the bay and a huge, yellow bus, one of '44 currently maintained by the district begins to rise into the air. Transportation Director Gary Pelham, a seven-year veteran whose typical morning begins a 5:00 am, stands nearby, surveilling the progress of the inspection. School buses have changed in the last decade. Since they are rotated out of the system every 10 years, the .tough, no frills work-horse buses that weie such a common sight on the roads a generation ago are becoming a thing of the past. Modem buses are larger and designed specifically with comfort and safety in mind. "Today, a typical bus in this. county logs between .20,000- 30,000 miles annually," says Mr. Pelham. Our buses use about 700 gallons of fuel every day - more when it rains." They cost about $70,000 brand new, and that's without air conditioning." The front seats of new buses 'have panels that fold down to reveal built-in child safety seats for the smallest passengers. The seats are :fully padded with a covered back. They are designed to absorb impact during a collision and act as a buffer.between the children. Flame retardant material is used to construct the, coverings and all seats have seat belts. The driver's seating area is ergonomically designed for the greatest comfort and ease of. operation. 1 oe Doors are no longer manually operated, but are air powered and open \ ith a simple flip of a switch. "Our veteran drivers, who are all too familiar with 'driver's shoulder' are especially glad for that," Mr. Pelham laughs. Man\ buses are now sporting new "California" mirrors which have large, round, wide-angle, reflectors. This allows drivers the \\ idest possible viewing area to see walking children, cars and other objects. New buses also have an automated crossing arm attached to the front bumper that is activated when the bus comes to a complete stop. This feature also ensures the driver can visibly account for children as they cross in front while, approaching 'or departing the bus. About 250 feet prior to stopping, the system of amber warning lights begin to flash. The system switches to red flashing lights at full stop when loading and unloading. The front control panel, located to the driver's left, is Updated nearly every year, according to Mr. Pelham; .Ai '71.) e gr. aind 10 irat a S 1014 it '' b *3 1,-,sholder- it; 'el a lead ia Sff 1t rTt ro,' Crc"'. cheicct'he'lwn ad i~ta #a f,,jrite for i cor aad lair.4/1 .,/ B010, Comr, 44 schoo'iil buice'sundergo an in-depth wtspecrio.I cienr 31) da~s A ir Crti, w- checks - There is even a noise reduction switch activated %when the bus approaches a railroad crossing. It inumediatelh reduces noise of radios. air blowers, etc., so that the sound of a train engine or horn can be more easily detected. , "With the size of buses, their vivid yellow color and the very conspicuous flashing warning lights, it's hard to believe any driver wouldn't be able to see a school bus," says Mr. Pelham. Buses are equipped with a two-way radio system for communication between drivers, _the transportation department, parents and law enforcement personnel ." . Camera and video systems are mounted in the overhead front panel near the driver seat. The camera records to a hard drive which can be accessed by the computer system in the transportation headquarters. The. two handicapped buses operated by the county are not required toha\'e the \ideos\ stem. "T\\o things account for that." explains Mr. Pelham. "Those two buses just don't experience the discipline problems often present on regular buses and they state requires the presence of an aide to assist the children and driver." Other safety features deal with emergency evacuation. Any window with a surrounding rubber gasket can be removed' from the inside, and the bus roof has air circulation hatches that can be removed to free trapped passengers. Florida's Department of Education requires every bus carrying children undergo an in- depth 60-point inspection once every 30 days. The inspection is divided PHOTO BY KELLEY LANNIGAN into main categories: Inside and outside, engine compartment. undercarriage, lubrication and maintenance and road test. According to Mr. Pelham, every inch of the bus is put under scrutiny. "We check even thing." says Mr. Pelharn. "Hoses, lines, wiring, bolts, filters, seats, brakes, gauges. lights if it's part of the bus, then it's checked." Two-three buses are inspected daily from 9:00 am to 1:00 p.m. - the window of time when they) are typically idle between four daily routes. Brand new buses '-are put through an initial inspection also. If thev arrive 'from the. manufacturer and don't meet code requirements, they don't go on the road. Also different on the newer buses is a fuel system designed to use' an ultra-low sulphur diesel fuel. The .newer buses are advantageous for their highly developed child-safety features, but have one disadvantage the 'undercarriage isn't as rugged as those in the older buses. With the preponderance of dirt roads in rural Baker County, the older buses stand up to wear and tear better than the ne\\. "So there are definite advantages', to both," says Mr. Pelham. Trick or treating On October 31 from 5:30- 8:00 pm, Macclenny Nursing and Rehab Center residents will give trick or treat candy to the children. All community chil- dren are welcome to stop by and visit. Macclenny Nursing and Rehab Center is located at 755 S. 5th Street.

The beautiful glass enclosed side porch of the Hilltop Restaurant in Orange Park overlooked a reflection pool in the center of which flowed a swan fountain. Friends from the first graduating class of the consolidated schools of. Sanderson, Taylor and Macclenny-Glen gathered there for a 50th class reunion to share a wonderful dinner and reminisce about the "good old days." There was lots of laughing and sharing during the social hour leading up to the official welcome by Tommy Johns., Mr. Johns recalled interesting historic facts from 1936-7, the years most of them had been born: Franklin D. Roosevelt was president. Congress passed a minimum \\age of 40 cents an hour and God Bless America. % written by Irvin Berlin, \\as the most popular song in the. country. Gene Taylor then gavethe' invocation and Zade Cov\art introduced Gentleman Josie Davis, the vocal entertainment laterthat evening.Teachers NMar) Finley and Elizabeth and Mike Gazdik were also recognized.

During the wonderful meal of salmon. chicken and prime rib. the classmates told amusing stories on each other and some of their teachers. "Do \ou remember when.we rigged up that bucket of water over the door to the boy's rest room?" asked Wilbur Groves %with a devilish gleam in his e)e.

Pinned in wreckage for over nine hours AM lacclenn \ \oman was hos- pitalized o\ e the weekend but is expected to reco\ er after she was pulled to safety after languish- ing in an overturned vehicle on. a lonely road in the Osceola Na- tiofial Forest.. A hunter traveling along SR 250 at the Columbia County line about 8:00 am on October 21 spotted the crashed 2004 Ford sedan in a thick stand of under- growth about 25 yards from the paved roadway. The motorist, who left the scene while police and rescue workers freed Laura Beth Thom- as, 20, was not identified. Based on a time line estab- lished by friends she had dropped off about 11:45 the previous evening, authorities believe Ms. Thomas had the accident about midnight or shortly after. That means she lay pinned in the wreckage for nearly nine hours, Sgt. Michael Crews of the sheriff's department said, with her legs partially out a rear pas- senger window. The top of the vehicle was severed by rescue workers to free her. "I don't know how she made it laying there and losing so much blood, but she did," said Sgt. Crews, who speculated Ms. Thomas failed to turn south on CR 229 after dropping off two friends. The unidentified motorist told police he noticed mashed-down foliage on the roadside when he passed it that morning, then spot- ted a portion of the Ford before calling 911. Trooper K.M. Boatwright Jr. of the Highway Patrol said the westbound vehicle went out of control on a long curve, then flipped three times after striking some trees on the right-of-way. Initially, police thought an- other person may have been with Ms. Thomas and left the scene.A search of the immediate area by FHP, wildlife officers, a prison canine team and US Forest Ser- vice turned up Iothing. Sgt. Crews said several.blood- stains were found on the pave- ment nearby, and a grassy spot had two indentations suggest- ing a bleeding person sat or laid down there. A limb the approximate size of a pool stick bearing blood- stains was also found close to the scene. After the unfruitful search, au- thorities speculate the blood and tracking ma\ have come from a deer injured b ,the Thomas se- hicle or another one. Ms. Thomas wag disoriented and unable to spread much light on the time or cause of the acci- dent, nor give an explanation for blood outside the Ford. Trooper Boatright's report said Ms. Thomas was not re- strained by seat or shoulder belts when found. He also noted there was no way to determine if she was driving or a passenger. Guest speaker Mary Finley, home economics teacher \\ho taught man) members of the class, gave a warm presentation regarding her y eats at the school. "It's : funny," she recalled. "The girls \\ho took my class alh a. s complained about having to clean the stove. The boys ne\er did. they just cleaned it." Ms. Finley recounted how one student was perperuall. late to her class. It seems Tommnc Johns could never get up quite early enough and alh al s came dragging in at the end. Ms. Finley finally called his mother because he was failing due to absence. '"That took care of that," said Ms. Finley. She also laughing\ told of Naomi Roberson's habit of chewing gum and raring back in her chair, punishable by having to sweep the floor. "Naomi -swept that floor nearly every day," she said. As the evening wound down, Sandra Anderson shared an inspirational parable and deceased' classmates were remembered..The happy group of friends then greatly enjoyed the music of, Gentleman Josie who sang 1950s tunes such as El Paso and White Sports Coat by 'Marty Robbins and He'll Have" To Go by Jim Reeves. The class posed on the winding steps of the Victorian staircase for a group photo before departing for the evening.

BY BOB GERARD, Press Sports During the bye week, Baker High football coach Bobby Johns candidly assessed the progress his team has made this season and how far it still has to go to meet his expectations. The Wildcats will face Bishop Kenny Friday in a district match- up. Both teams- are out of the playoff picture, but will be play- ing for pride. "Ifyou look at the early games of the season, say Middleburg or WVest Nassau,. it's clear that we've made a lot of progress," said Johns. "We \ weren't a very good football team at the start of the season." Johns sees the team making gains Iw eek-b\ -week. but there is still a lot of work to do, par- ticularly on the mental side of thle game. "We are still making a lot of mental mistakes that are costing us ballgames." said the first-year coach. Johns looked at the losses to Raines, Jackson and Su\% annee Counts and blamed them on mental errors. In each game, the team \"as close to victory, only to have key drives go awry due to fumbles, poor clock manage- ment or missed assignments. For a coach who preaches fundamen- tals, that can be frustrating. "You can see that we go into games hoping to win, but not ex- pecting to % in." said Johns. "It's as if we're waiting for something bad to happen." According to Coach Johns, good teams enter a game know - ing they will win, and not letting anything stand in their way.' "In every game you'll have times when things aren't going : yOr way, and you have to over- ' come them to \in." At this point the Wildcats haven't made the leap of faith to, accomplish that. Johns used the example of a regular season win over Vernon High while'he was coach Blountstown and a.play against the same team. "We were trailing i games and came back to x couldn't have done that we were convinced that w win the game." That switch has yet with the young Wildcats work on game situation- snap decisions ha\ e to b in practice. but until a t able to accomplish it in t of competition it don't t to make the mental lea "hope" to "expect." "There were some k ments in the Raines an son games where, had v able, to overcome, the Should have been different Johns. "But we weren't do that." Nonetheless,' Johns is with the team's progress' ciavly when he realizes th to work as a team to.be s ful. T"We don't have the rea nant player that big pr have.

This game proved it takes a total team effort to win. 'The offensive standouts for the Packers were. Will Rhoden with six carries for 134 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Marcus Harper carried three times for 13 yards and scored an extra point. Cooper Hodges and Joseph Alford also ran the ball. 'The Packer's defensive play- ers of the game were Joseph Al- ford with eight tackles. Cooper Hodges and Will Rhoden both had seven tackles and Dalton Vonk followed with six. Other notable defensive players were Marcus Harper, Daniel Courson, Detrone Watkins and Dawson Fiaser. 'The Titan offensive players were Kaleb Manning with 26 carries for 97 yards rushing. Jus- tin Waddell rushed for 49 yards and caught a pass for 17 yards. Justin Morris led the defense for the Titans with five tackles and a fumble recovery.

I THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS, Thursday October 26, 2006 Page 14 Bishop Kenny here for home after Suwannee dashes district BY BOB GERARD Press Sports Live Oak seems to be the place where hopes of a playoff slot go to die. The Baker High Wildcats. saw their hopes at a playoff shot destroyed when they entered the confines of the Suwannee Coun- ty High football field a 'couple of weeks ago. This past weekend, the Wild- cats' homecoming opponent Bishop Kenny suffered the same indignity. The Crusadeis were 1- 1 in district play going in to the game, and hoped a win would propel them another step closer to a possible though improb-, able pldvoff slot. But Suwannee, which started the season in miserable fashion with a 1-5 record,' used its home field advantage to craft an excit- ing 21-17 % victory over the Cru- saders. The win left the Bulldogs with a mathematical chance at the playoffs and Kenny 'gasping for air. - The loss was a complete re- versal of BK's previous week's remarkable 40-34, 'ictory over the Raines Vikings. In that game., the Crusaders rode the arm and quick feet of qUarterback Alike Stukel to victory. Stukel "is a very dangerous quarterback, and stopping him will be job one for the Wildcats on Friday night. Stukel is a threat throw ing the ball. but perhaps an even bigger threat running the option. When he decides to run. Stukel has the speed and durabil- ity of a tailback. In the first half of the Suwan- nee game, Stukel was a one man wrecking crew. He ran the ball eight times for 108 yards and. threw eight times for 68 yards. Kenny went up 17-7 and looked in complete control of the game. But Suwannee made adjust- ments that the Wildcats will look at very carefully, loading the line w ith size, and the game swung to the Bulldogs' fav or.
