" We had some good athletes last season, and a lot of them have graduated. But we have had two good recruiting years, and I am looking forward to what the future has to offer." During the 1972 and 1973 seasons, Lichtenberg served as an MSU assistant under Roy Terry. After a five-year tenure at Iowa State he returned to assume the football coaching duties last season. The 39-year-old is a graduate of the University of Louisville and has previously had head coaching positions at William Mason High School in Mason, Ohio, and at Purcell High School in Cincinnati. During his five seasons at Iowa State he served in various capacities, including offensive coordinator for the Big-S's representative to the Hall of Fame Bowl in Birmingham, Ala. "I wouldn't have come back here if I didn't have a love for Morehead State University. I know the people here want a football program, and when you want a football program, you want a winner. They didn't hire me to lose." Lichtenberg feels that the energy of the coaching staff has been a tremendous plus. " I've never been outworked by anyone. We" II probably make a few mistakes along the way, but we'll work hard to correct them. With the cooperation we are going to get, we might be on top of things sooner than people think." 2 Lichtenberg was encouraged by his second spring practice at MSU. " I feel we are a much more solid football team than at this point last season. Our fundamentals are much stronger, and we have experienced players and depth at a lot of key positions." Lichtenberg is enthusiastic about the Ohio Valley Conference. " It's really tough each week to go up against the likes of Eastern and Western and Tennessee Tech. People don't realize how tough the OVC is. With the addition of Akron and Youngstown, the league will be even stronger." The Eagle field boss, active in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, is married to the former Sue Ann Reding of Mayfield. They have five children. 3 MARSHALL BURDITTE Defensive Backs A rookie member of the MSU coaching staff this season is Marshall Burdette of Huntington, W . Va. Burdette comes to MSU from the defensive coordinator position at Parkersburg (W. Va.) High School. A two-time graduate of Marshall University, Burdette is a native of Mobile, Ala., and Is a graduate of Huntington East High School. He is married to the former Peggy Conrad of Huntington, W. Va. Lichtenberg: " Marshall adds a lot to our football program both on and off the field. He is enthusiastic and has an excellent knowledge of the game. "We know Marshall to be a class person who will be of tremendous value to us both during the season and in recruiting." 4 STAN HIXON Running Backs One of two new coaches on the Eagle staff this season is Stan Hixon of Lakeland, Fla. A graduate of Iowa State University where he played under Lichtenberg, Hixon comes to MSU from coaching positions at Dowling High School in Des Moines, Iowa, and most recently the University of Richmond. A three year letterman at Iowa State, Hixon is married to the former Becky Haughton of Waterloo, Iowa. Lichtenberg: "We are very pleased to have Stan join the staff. He is an outstanding individual with a good knowledge of the game. His primary responsibility will be the running backs, a position he is very familiar with." 5 VAN HOLLAWAY Defensive Coordinator A two-sport performer at Iowa State, Van Hollaway is one of two members of the coaching staff to make the move to MSU from Iowa State with Lichtenberg. The football program coordinator at ISU, Hollaway also served as defensive coordinator and later as head coach at Bethany College in Kansas. A football and track performer at Iowa State, he is married to the former Chris Gawith of Beloit, Kan. They have a son and daughter. Lichtenberg: "Van has a great amount of knowledge of the game. He has served as both a defensive coordinator and head coach on the college level, and that will help. "As defensive coordinator last season, Van did a super job, as three shut-outs might indicate." 6 TOM JONES Defensive Line The veteran on MSU's coaching staff is Tom Jones, a 1973 graduate of Western Kentucky University. A former head coach at Adair County High School and Lafayette (Tenn.) High School, he also served as assistant coach at Bullitt Central High School and as graduate assistant at the University of Tennessee. He is married to the former Mary Bess Manby of LaGrange.

Our defense was one of our strengths, and we hope it will continue to be this season." 7 STEVE LONEY Offensive Coordinator The other member of the Iowa State staff to accompany Lichtenberg to MSU is Steve Loney, a 1974 ISU graduate. A former football player and graduate assistant at Iowa State, Loney also served as offensive coordinator at Missouri Western College and as head coach at Leavenworth (Kan.) High School. Loney, who will also coach the offensive line, is married to the former Terri Lynn Davidson of Joplin, Mo. They have a son and a daughter. Lichtenberg: "Steve has held the position of offensive coordinator on the college level before, and we know he has great knowledge of the game. "We feel that our offensive line will be a team strength. With Steve's knowledge, they should be even better." 8 LESTER THARP Graduate Assistant Wide Receivers Lester Tharp joins the MSU staff after serving as an assistant coach at West Virginia Tech for five years. A graduate of West Virginia Tech, Tharp will serve this season as receiver coach. Lichtenberg: " Lester comes to us with a great deal of coaching experience on the college level. He will be handl ing a young group of wide receivers, so his experience will be extremely valuable." 9 BILLY JENKINS Graduate Assistant Defensive Ends One of the two graduate assistant coaches serving on the MSU staff this season is Billy Jenkins of Elizabethtown. A former head coach at North Hardin High School, he is also a former football player and graduate of the University of Kentucky. In charge of MSU defensive ends, Jenkins is married to the former Kathy Mahon of Vine Grove. They have one daughter.

Organizations can use mass media outlets to change social conditions and encourage political and social intervention. When working with the media, advocates should ‘shape’ their story to incorporate social themes rather than solely focusing on individual accountability. “Develop a story that personalizes the injustice and then provide a clear picture of who is benefiting from the condition.” (Wallack et al., 1999) Merely stating that there is a problem provides no ‘call to action’ for the public. Therefore, advocates should identify a specific solution that would allow communities to take control of the issue. Sexual violence is a public health concern of social injustices. Effective Media Campaigns Local, regional or statewide campaigns can provide a forum for prevention, outreach and raising awareness to create social change. This toolkit will enhance advocates’ abilities to utilize the media for campaigns and other events. Campaigns can include: public service announcements (PSAs), awareness events (Take Back the Night; The Clothesline Project), media interviews, coordinated events at area schools or college campuses, position papers, etc.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

  • Jackie Smith: Revolutionary Receiver
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 6 (1994) JACKIE SMITH: REVOLUTIONARY RECEIVER By Don Smith Jackie Smith wanted to play high school football but managed to see action for only half a season. He had no intention of playing college football but wound up as a four-year regular. He never even dreamed of playing professional football but he played 16 quality seasons in the National Football League. The improbable career of the 6-4, 232-pound tight end completed its incredible cycle in January, 1994, when he was accorded his sport's ultimate honor, election into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In between his aborted attempt to play football in high school and his final NFL season in 1978, Smith, hard- working and determined, fashioned a landmark career with the St. Louis Cardinals for 15 seasons from 1963 to 1977. He finished his pro football tenure with the Dallas Cowboys in 1978. At the time of his retirement, Smith ranked as the leading tight end receiver in NFL history. He had 480 catches for 7,918 yards and 40 touchdowns. Jackie hit his personal high-water mark with 56 receptions for 1,205 yards and nine touchdowns in 1967, when he was named to the all-NFL team. He caught more than 40 passes seven different years and was selected to play in the Pro Bowl after five of those seasons. Not only was he the top-ranking tight end when he retired, he also ranked llth among all career receivers and third among active receivers at the time.
