The sixth game of the season finds the WCU gridders once again in for an encounter with conference foe. The Citadel. Second year Coach Art Baker has nine starters returning from both the offensive and defensive units and expects a strong improvement over last year's 5-6 record. The Bulldogs were trounced 38-24 in Cullowhee last year. After a week off. the Cats return home to face the Wofford Terriers in an afternoon encounter. Wofford will be seeking to recover from a dismal 3-8 season and to avenge the 26-11 defeat they suffered at the hands of WCU last season. The eighth game of the season marks the second in a three game homestand. as the Cats will be hosting another non-conference opponent in Lenoir Rhync. The Bears will be heading into Cat country as Western's opponent for homecoming. I he- following week the C ats will take the field In what should be an e-xc-itme rematch ol the game which lasi icur proved to be the biggest ol ille Season.

Fast Tennessee State University. The Buccaneers were only 4-7 last season, nonetheless they defeated the Catamounts in the second game- of the season. Coach Waters has already staled thai alihough he isn't upset about last year's loss anymore, aei'iigoanee will be his. The Catamounts will be returning a strong defensive unit, with ten starters and a number of key reserves back off a sepiad which was second last season in the Southern Conference in overall defense; but it will be the offense which will tell the story. Mike Puscy (last year the S.C. leader in passing yardage. 16 nationally) will be returning as will several of his key favorite targets, foremost of whom is Gerald Harp (S.C. Plavcr of the Year, second nationally in pass receiving). But the Cats running game is suspect. Should several bright spots appear in the offensive back-field and the rest of the team remain relatively injury free, the Southern Conference championship, which just barely eluded the Catamounts last season, may this year be grasped.
