Look for the TUIT in November!

PROGRAM: Scott Horton introduced Chad Wintz, head basketball coach for Hutchinson Community College.

The Blue Dragons have had scrimmages with Coffeyville, Emporia, Ottawa and Kansas Newman. Five sophomores are returning for this years campaign. The 14-man roster includes seven young men from Kansas.

While some of the players are fighting the injury bug, the team expects to be ready for the Quarterback Classic on November 4th & 5th at the Sports Arena. Hamilton College of Nebraska and Northern Oklahoma will provide the competition for that weekend. November features nine home games for the Blue Dragons so plan on taking in a good game.

FINES:

We have reached a new low for AMBUCS. (That hardly seems possible, but we have.) Did our Sgt. at Arms, Tom Hymer, really say that the punch line to the joke was but we havent swept together! (Shades of Jack Mace!)

Late fees were assessed to Jack M., Rick M. and Dean B. Scott H. was fined for arriving after his guest. Bob B. was fined for a beer fee. Bob B. and Al S. were fined for circus golf. Doug F. was fined for picking on Bob. Mark C. and Scott P. were fined a newbie tax. Two tables of AMBUCS were fined for not paying attention. There you go! Mark T. was going to escape being fined. Oh well! His record of being fined at every meeting continues.
