Second Fire On Monday Burns Home

Firefighters were busy Monday as they were called to a trailer fire Monday afternoon, the second structure fire in less than 10 hours.

There were similarities in both of the fires. Both structures were considered complete losses totaling $15,000 and both started in the bedroom. However, the cause of the fires differed dramatically.

According to Capt. Bruce Williams, the trailer fire, which occurred in the 3200 block of North Fourteenth Street at approximately 1 p.m., was started by children playing with either matches or a lighter.

"Half of the trailer was already involved when we arrived," Williams said. "Only the back half of the trailer was destroyed by the fire but because of smoke damage throughout I am sure it is a complete loss."

At 4:07 a.m. Monday another fire "gutted" the interior of house in the 300 block of South Pine Street. The fire was considered an electrical fire and was caused by an alarm clock.

Two fires in one day is not unusual for this time of year says Fire Chief Larry Mullikin. "Fires increase in the winter months," Mullikin said. "The increase is usually due to the misuse of heating appliances."

Cable Company Offers Amnesty Until Feb. 28

Cable ONE has announced its participation in an amnesty campaign with the Police Department to educate and inform consumers about cable theft.

Amnesty will be granted to all consumers who are illegally receiving cable services without payment. This includes all illegal connections to the system, the use of unauthorized descrambling equipment or receipt of other services which are not being paid for.

Amnesty will be granted until Feb. 28. After that date, Cable ONE will begin an audit of the entire cable system to secure all services. At that time, those addresses receiving unauthorized services will be turned over the Police Department and the District Attorney's office for prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.

Theft of cable service is a violation of Oklahoma law, punishable by fines (up to $400). In addition, Cable ONE reserves the right to file civil charges against any illegal users of its service for back payment of services received by consumers who do not take advantage of amnesty.

In making the announcement, General Manager Jerald Stone said, "Cable theft is a serious crime that influences all aspects of our business. The revenues lost to cable theft can impact the quality of services in the future. We feel a tremendous commitment to securing our systems for our paying subscribers."

"Our business is to bring entertainment and information to our paying subscribers, but when that objective is at risk, we must take these aggressive steps to protect our product. I know that the cooperative effort with the Police Department will enhance our efforts greatly and I thank them for their commitment," Stone added.

Persons wishing to become legal customers, turn in illegal equipment, or confidentially report cable theft of any kind, should call Cable ONE office at 762-6684 or the anonymous "tip line" toll free, 1-888-557-8095.

Prep Preview Cat Wrestlers Heavily Favored in Enid Dual

By FRED HILTON
News Sports Editor

Things have improved for the Wildcat wrestlers as they start the second semester by taking on Enid in a district dual here tonight.

The Cats and Plainsmen will clash at 7 p.m., following the JVs matches (six or seven of them) against Perkins, which is scheduled for 6.

Ponca City will be heavily favored against Enid, which is still struggling to get its wrestling program off the ground. The Plainsmen are the second of three district foes the Cats must face to win a berth in the Dual State Tournament. The Poncans overcame their biggest hurdle by beating Edmond Memorial, 48-22, early in December. The third district match, against Edmond Santa Fe, is scheduled here next Tuesday.

Po-Hi coach Pat Young is making a couple of changes in his lineup for tonight's dual, but this time the changes are a matter of choice and not prompted by illness or injuries.

Sophomore Phillip Brotherton's return to Ponca City gives Young a little more flexibility at the lighter weights.

Brotherton, who moved away last season but returned for the second semester, will be at 103 pounds tonight, allowing Phillip Gelino to go back to 112 for the dual.

Josh Bailey remains at 119 with Willie Ivie stepping in at 125, allowing Mark Dodgen to go to 130 and Matt Dodgen to 135.

The rest of the lineup remains about as it was for the Jenks Quad Saturday.

Lorenzo Jones is at 140 pounds, Michael Osborne at 145, Kyle Duren at 152, Toby Redleaf at 160, Darrin Smith at 171, Jay Bentley at 189, Nick Steichen at 215 and Jason Nuerenberg at 275.

The plans, right now, are for Gelino to drop back to 103 and the Dodgens to 125 and 130 for the Geary Tournament this weekend.

Enid, which at times has sported some good individual wrestlers but have never been a serious threat teamwise, is looking for small victories to boost morale.

The Plainsmen won their first tournament in four years in the Kansas Duals at Chaparral and took Norman North to the wire before losing 38-31 in a dual before Christmas.

Enid 215-pounder Brandon DeKock, the only experienced senior for the Plainsmen, is the team's leading wrestler at this point but coach Corey Clayton feels his other grapplers are gaining confidence.

 

Wildcats, Lady Cats Kick off New Year

By MATTHEW KOENIG
News Sports Writer

One year ago today, both Wildcat basketball teams came off the holiday break with 0-4 records. Their first game of the New Year was against the Owasso Rams, and both teams came up with surprising upsets.

Though both teams have a win this season, they'd like to start the New Year in much the same fashion. The Lady Cats' tip-off is scheduled for 6:15, while the boys' game will start at 7:45. Both games will be broadcast by WBBZ, 1230 AM.

The Rams, though unranked in Class 6A, have a pair of formidable foes in 6-4 sophomore Richard Hardmon, and 5-11 guard Jay Brunett. Brunett broke his hand six weeks ago, however, and could be out of the line-up tonight.

The senior-dominated Lady Rams, ranked No. 8 in the state, are anchored by 6-2 Jessica Bates and 6-0 Sarah Reese. Reese has averaged 16 points per game, while Bates - who recently signed with OSU - has been knocking down a stellar 22 per game.

Ponca City Wildcats (1-3) at Owasso Rams (2-2)

Scoring-wise, Ponca City and Owasso are at opposite ends of the spectrum. Offensively, the Cats have been prolific, currently seeded second in the conference with 60 points per game. The Rams are last, with an average output of just 38.4 points.

Defensively, however, the Rams have allowed an average of just 46 points - good for third - while the Cats are in the conference basement, giving up a whopping 72.3 points per game.

"Obviously, we're not going to win giving up that many points," says head coach Ron Arthur, "we have to get that number down in the 50's if we want to be successful."

Blame it on turnovers. If the Wildcats have a New Year's Resolution, it could be "don't be so generous." The Cats have given up the ball a crippling 28.3 times per game, nearly double the opposition (15.8).

Can the Cats mend the error of their ways? Arthur thinks so. This is, after all, a new model year for the Wildcats.

After a disturbing, 76-50 loss to Jenks on Dec. 19 - a loss which saw the Wildcat team run about as well as a '76 Pinto - a solemn Arthur promised "changes."

So, after weeks of two-a-day workouts and a couple of scrimmages against Blackwell and Pawnee, the restyled, 1998-model Cats are about to roll onto the showroom floor.

Arthur says the new styling boils down to attitude.

"It just echoes what I told them this summer," he says. "It comes down to who can handle adversity and pressure."

Also, the Cats will be looking for more activity from their bevy of big post players - Ryan Treadway, Jason Shelton, and Alfred Delancy.

Like another conference foe, Sapulpa, Arthur says the Rams play a patient, "Princeton-style" game - namely, they walk the ball up court, take their time, and choose their shots carefully. And - as they did with a near upset against Sapulpa - Arthur hopes his team can respond.

"We want to get them off balance. But we have to score and make them play a fast paced game."

P.C. Lady Cats (1-3) at Owasso Lady Rams (5-2)

If the Lady Cats have a New Year's Resolution, it could be "score more points."

Though they're dead even with the opposition on turnovers (20), the Lady Cats have shot just 36 percent from the field, and during their last game (a 54-28 loss to Jenks, Dec. 19), they connected on just 15 percent of their shots. And while the Lady Cats have held opponents to 56.5 points per game (Owasso averages 58), they've managed just 47 of their own.

To head coach Dana Pulley, those numbers say it all.

"We need consistency," she says, "the good teams in the conference are doing well because they shoot over 50 percent. We have to do that."

And if one thing has led to that lack of baskets, Pulley says, it's a lack of movement.

"We've been working on our four-man motion and our pressure defense - we can't have people standing around."

Pulley also says they've done a lot of conditioning, and says she's come up with several different combinations in the line-up that could give her starters some much-needed rest.

"They're ready to get back into it. They're ready to play, they're ready to get some wins."
