   European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - August 18, 1988, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Safe football 88 upper Heyford continued from Page 7 Singleton enters his third season at Heyford. He s Quick. He s a Leader which the sky Kings need with an offence that returns Only three starters. Singleton directed Heyford to two touchdowns at Bent Vjaters then rested. His successors Eric Green and Tom Lytle directed Heyford to seven interceptions. If Singleton gets Hurt it will create the kind of chaos Heyford suffered when tailback Jerome Solomon was injured before the 87 . Title game. With Solomon gone Sam cousins assumes the bulk of Heyford s Rushing. Then there s bulk on Heyford s line. Last year we averaged 190 pounds tackle to tackle said general manager Terry Mcsweeney. This year we re in the 220-plus  Lett to right that line features tackle Charles Allen 248 Pound guard Richard Giusti 195center Frank Reda 216guard Timothy Henson 200 and tackle David Harden 235. The defense which carried Heyford in 87, returns seven starters. Four were All stars safeties Les Parkey and Charles Standifer and linebackers Sam Warnick and Nate Wheeler. Mcsweeney says Warnick was a virtual defensive coordinator in pads. This year Warren Tate Calls the shots. He s the new head coach and his passion is defense. That s Why Tate raves about his new cornerback Darrell Brooks. Brooks hits the Way Tate preaches viciously. Can this Heyford Bunch return to Safe s upper Perch there s not a single answer. There is a Singleton answer. Coach Warren Tate right will gladly take More upper Heyford pass deflections like this one by safety Charles Standifer in the Ben Waters exhibition. 6. Pitburg 1987 record 9-3, Safe Champion. Record in the 80s 71-19. Top returnee Dwayne Harp flanker. Top newcomer Jeff Wendling linebacker. Key to 88 life without Freddie Miller. Pitburg we hardly know be. Where is Freddie Miller the muscle of the Barons since 1 982 has ditched football in favor of  career. Where Are Danny Estes Karl Deutsch Dale Binkley and Mike Coffey the meat of Pitburg s lineup for what seemed like a decade gone. Where is Emmett Glover the Barons quarterback of 1986? gone. Where is Bert Chew bin 87? not coming out. At least we know where Dennis Hueston is. The Barons Star linebacker the last three seasons has taken his contemptuous stare to Sembach. What happened the Barons finally won a Safe championship that s what happened. Players who Hung around after 1981 searching for no. 1 found it in 1987. Time to go. Coach Joe Green just arrived last year. He guided the Barons to a 6-3 regular season then saw them explode for their first Safe title since 1980. He s staying to see if he can set Pitburg s Detonator for the playoffs again. The nebraskan gives his Odds at repeating As "100-to-1." you would think Green would be Blue Over Chew s absence. The Delaware state product ran Green s offence with aplomb. Now Scott Kayser runs Green s offence with a bomb. That makes the coach Rosy. Bobby Bowden saw Scott in one of our practices and said he would be taken him at Florida state said Green. He can zip  Kayser played backup tight end last year. He played quarterback the whole exhibition july 31 and rallied Pitburg from 20-0 to beat Mildenhall 39-20. Can Kayser win at once if Scottie had Bert s athletic ability he could said Green. But maybe he s a year two  Miller s football retirement leaves Pitburg with last year s defensive Back Bruce Walls at tailback. Sex Alconbury rusher Gene Longstreet Hopes to Start at fullback behind a line that averages 220 pounds. With no dominant running Back Kayser might pass his test with flanker Dwayne Harp and split end Daryl dryer As targets. Pitburg likes 6-foot-3, 236-Pound Jeff Wendling As Hueston s replacement. Earl Sledge returns As the other linebacker. The Barons still have Aii Csc defensive tackle de Carcarey. Alvin Mack says he s playing cornerback again. If the Barons personnel Don t guarantee a playoff spot their schedule does. Their first four games Are against teams with losing records in 1987. Then they sit out a week before visiting Ramstein. If Pitburg has t clinched a playoff spot by then Miller and Chew better warm up. Pitburg s Richard spec if in dark Jersey would t mind running into Lakenheath again like he did Here in 1987. 8 stripes Magazine August in 1988
