The prevailing sound at Lions Park Saturday was the grind of wheels hitting hard surfaces as Temple Parks and Leisure celebrated the opening of the new Extreme Skate Park and In-Line Skating Arena at the facility.

Young and old, single and married. These dichotomies are among the diverse individuals who receive assistance from the Texas Department of Human Services' Food Stamp Program. And they're not just welfare cases, either, as Mary Borchardt, facilitator for the Central Texas chapter of the state's department, will point out. by Jonathan Walburgh

It was all Killeen at Temple's 25th Annual Tem-Cat Relays on Saturday at Wildcat Stadium. Blessed with an abundance of talent, the Kangaroos tallied 163 team points to well outdistance second-place Austin Reagan (102). The host Tem-Cats finished in fifth with 59 points, not a gaudy total but about what Coach Kay Bacon expected going in. With several of her athletes competing in other spring sports, Temple isn't quite at full strength yet. by Tom Day

After last week's split against Hill College, Temple Baseball coach Craig McMurtry told his team it would be a long season. McMurtry's statement meant that the Leopards would have plenty of time to recover from their 1-3 start in Northern Texas Junior College Athletic Conference competition. It might also have meant that TC would also have time to regroup from the kind of days like the one it experienced Saturday at the Danny Scott Athletic Complex. The Leopards were swept by Grayson, the No. 1 team in the nation, 14-3, 16-6, which dropped them to 1-5 in conference play and 10-8 overall. Grayson improved to 6-0 and 19-1. by Marcus Hood
