Dallas Cowboys Coach Tom
Landry didn’t need his comput-
er to out figure why attendance
was poor at Irving Stadium
Sunday.
"I guess some of them (the
fans) had other plans today,"
Landry said. "I had to break
my plans to be here."
The Cowbyos had a string of
44 consecutive home sellououts
broken and there were 13,349
no-shows Sunday when pro
football fans found a way to get
even with the players and
owners. Thousands of National
Football League fans stayed
away from the games in 13
cities in protest to the recently
concluded 57-day players’
strike.
As the teams resumed the
season after eight weeks of
inactivity, the 13 stadiums were
filled to only 77 percent
capacity.
The cavernous 71,300-seat
New Orleans Superdome had
the most empty seats, with only
39,341 fans showing up to watch
the Saints upset the Kansas
City Chiefs. The Saints drew
58,673 for the Sept. 12 season
opener against the St. Louis
Cardinals.
Cleveland’s Municipal Stadi-
um had 29,041 vacancies, while
24,814 seats were empty at Rich
Stadium, the home of the
Buffalo Bills.
Those fans that did turn out
were quite vocal in voicing
their disapproval of the
players.
"I think it (the strike) hurts
us for the balance of this
year,” admitted NFL commis-
[continued on pg. 12]
of themselves in football uniform and were given their jersey
displaying their player number through glass. Each player also
was presented a trophy
Coah Jerry Hill presented the plaques and parents present-
ed the other items.
Terronez opened the program by reading an article titled,
"Please don’t curse the boy down there., he’s my son."
He also recognized those who have been instrumental in
helping to establish the camera tower and supporters of the
Perry football team. This included a host of individuals, their
spouses and businesses.
Recognized were Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Beisel, Mr. and Mrs.
Larry Voss, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Busha, Mr. and Mrs. Leon
Hughes, Mr. and Mrs. Danny Coldiron, Mr. and Mrs. Paul
Morrow, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Roth, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Wilda, Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Kohman, Mr. and Mrs. Gary Billingsley, Mr. and
Mrs. Ralph Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Dee Oden, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil
Meyer, Dennis Bass, Joe and Jay Williams.
Mr. and Mrs. Gene Wood, Mr. and Mrs. Sid Wilhelm, Gary
Campbell, Jeff Griffin, Earl Hicks, Bud Hollingsworth, Tim
Bingham, Harold Pense, Jack Talmadge, Mike Witt, Willa Mae
Dalrymple, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Stover, David Dunbar, Wendell
Logan, Jim Wolff, Faye O’Dell, Chuck O’Donnell, Leo Wagner,
Bob McDaniel, Leo Wagner, Jan Marburger and Marvin Beier.
Bob Webb, president of the Quarterback club, presented a
framed self portrait to each coach. The pictures were given by
Jack Talmadge and frames were given by the Quarterback
club.
Webb presented plaques to volunteers, who do not have sons
on the team, but gave time and effort to help the team during the
season. These include Garry Voss, Cecil Beisel, Larry Voss and
Jack Busha. He presented a framed "work of architecture” of
the weight bench plans to Coach Rick Evans.
Coach Hill presented an autographed football to Bob Webb
and a Perry Maroon wrist watch to Bill Rotter. The football has
the names of team members and the season schedule. A plaque
was available for presentation to Dr. Richard Seal, who served
as the team physician, but was unable to attend Saturday
evening.
Coach Hill introduced the speaker, Don Jimerson, assistant
athletic director at the University of Oklahoma. He has been at
OU 16 years, served as head freshman coach eight years and
receiver coach for four years. "How to Achieve Success," was
title of Jimerson’s talk.
Jimerson said he had known many renouned athletes and
studied them to see what made them tick, how they achieved
success and had decided these are the same qualities that make
people "champions in the game of life as a person."
He came to the conclusion that success is peace of mind.
"But how do you get peace of mind and where do you get peace
of mind?" asked Jimerson. "It is being the best that you can
possibly be. It takes a ton of courage, willing to pay the price;
learning to say no and one will never have to say no to anything
really worthwhile in life; learning to overcome obstacles,
having a heart...a heart beat difference between ordinary and
the best.”
"Other qualities include attitude, believing in yourself;
modesty, realizing that whatever you achieve a lot of people
help get you there and you should give credit where credit is
due; a sense of pride, the kind of pride that gives you class that
sets you apart; and last but not least, learning to take God with
you wherever you go."
Coach Hill thanked the mothers for the banquet and
recognized the football queen and her attendants, Cindi Jerome,
Page Coker and Dawna Jeffery, and the cheerleaders, Page
Coker, Lisa Bradshaw, Tina Bocox, Kim Houska, Sharlotte
Forest, Kristy Garrett, Teresa Dolezal, Karen Collins and Ver-
nona Dow.
Recognition was given the team equipment managers,
Rodney Vollmer, Robert Klingaman, Mike Ewy, Ricky Vick and
Travis Wilhelm.

Reagan On TV
At7 Tonight
By NORMAN D. SANDLER
WASHINGTON (UPI) -
President Reagan, intent on
countering a Soviet military
buildup, tonight will outline a
plan to deploy the MX missile
in a "dense pack" formation,
administration officials said.
Reagan, in what aides de-
scribed as "a major address on
defense and arms control," will
deliver a televised speech from
the Oval office at 7 p.m. CST,
several hours after announcing
his choice of a basing mode for
the MX.
Administration officials said
Sunday the president, in accord
with the recommendations of
Defense Secretary Casper
Weinberger, had chosen a plan
that would place 100 MX
missiles in closely spaced
launch canisters in the West.
The concept, known as
"dense pack," assumes the
bulk of the MX force would
survive a Soviet attack because
the first explosions of incoming
warheads would destroy or
deflect others that followed.
Weinberger has estimated the
"dense pack" option could cost
$25 billion.
The missiles would be located
in a field 14 miles long near a
military base in Wyoming,
Nevada or New Mexico. Critics
contend the plan offers no
greater protection than other
deployment options.
The question of how and
where to base the MX — the
newest addition to the U.S.
nuclear arsenal — has clouded
the fate of the program for
more than a year. Reagan
rejected a Carter administra-
tion plan to shuttle the missiles
among multiple underground
shelters in the West.
The officials, who requested
anonymity, said the long-
awaited recommendation on the
Mini-Parade Has
Third Entry
The third float has been entered for the Christmas
mini-parade which will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 11,
emphasizing a religious theme.
Latest entry was by Caraway Street of the First
Christian church, with Gail Johnson and Bob Stringer
as sponsors. The float will receive $25 to help defray
expenses.
Previously entered floats are from the junior high
cheerleaders and the First United Methodist church.
Each float entered is eligible for the $25 cash for
expenses. Entry blanks are available at the Chamber
of Commerce office and entries may be taken or
mailed to the C-C office.
This is the second year for the parade which was a
resounding success last December. The mini-parade is
so named because floats are encouraged for backs of
pickups, hay racks, trucks or other conveyances and
need not be elaborate in design. They must be decor-
ated to emphasize the parade theme "Remember the
Christ in Christmas" or feature carolers, instrumen-
talists or other ideas.
This and other pre-Christmas activities are in charge
of Bill Parker and Milo Watson, co-chairmen for the
retail committee of the chamber.
First event will be the annual pet parade which will
be at 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 4.

MX, which will have to be
considered by Congress, will be
a major part of Reagan’s
nationally broadcast address.
In the speech, Reagan will
reaffirm his determination to
strengthen U.S. strategic forces
in the face of what he calls a
growing Soviet threat while
pledging to seek real reductions
in nuclear arms, officials said
Aides said Reagan will
portray the 10-warhead MX -
more powerful and accurate
than land-based missiles now in
the U.S. arsenal — as an
important element of his drive
to close a perceived "window of
vulnerability” in the U.S.-Soviet
nuclear balance
Administration officials at-
tribute this perceived imbal-
ance to increased vulnerability
of the land-based missile force
resulting from improvements in
Soviet weapon technology
To underline the need for the
MX, Reagan will give a
comparative analysis of U.S.-
Soviet nuclear balance, which
one aide said will highlight "the
Soviet surge in the last 20
years."
However, the officials said
Reagan also will seek to assure
critics of his ambitious military
buildup, estimated to cost $1.6
trillion over five years, that he
is committed to arms control.
