M'CAIN, PUN7|NG MARVEL, OUT OF
 GAME FOR WEEK
Other Local Players Expect to Be in Shape for For
 dyce Saturday.

The game with Fordyce for y:ster day was carried over till next Satur- day. Neithsr team had a game scheduled for that date. Coach liar rison of the Fcrdyce team wanted to play Monday but as there is an elec- ticn here on thae date, the managa Y thought it best to carry the game , over for the week
 i, Since the LonCka game several of the boys have been suffering win injuries. And then, the Little Rock game on 'op of it, put the boys back some. Ths whole black field work d under a difficulty in the Tiger-Pine Bluff battle. All were carrying l bruises received in the Lcnoke gam. 1 Cross, big end, did not get in the game at all, and Gould was left a home, nursing a sprained ankle. With g weeks rest all the men will be in tip-top condition for the annual bat tie with Fordyce.
 Mccain has not reported for prac- tice all week, and the coach says he will not be ready for the Fordyce sams. McCain's work in the Little Rock game was spectacular, and his kicking kept the ball out of danger at the critical moments. Cross is rounding in shape and may get to start the game Saturday. Gould is running at guard and the injured list is recuperating slowly. Bays, Niven and Moss have been suffering with stiff muscles.
 At Fridays practice all were i'm proving and the indications arc that all the regulars will be back in the game with the possible exception of Mccain. Coach Bassett has been working on the second string men and has made some finds which Inc will look over the coming week.
 The third team is lacking in team work and not many are showing the proper amount of "pep." Friday they lined up against the Lax side squad strengthened by some seccnd strine men. The game was hardfought and just at the close the third tea m men shcved over score.
 Tomorrow Coach Bassett will begin his grind and exact some if worl, from his regulars in preparation fo. the Fordyce game next Saturday. This team always puts up it's best battle against the local squad, and eaca year they do. not have much to their advantage so close are the games. Early in the season the Hi team de- feated these Dallas county lads. They did not show their real nettle and ara coming Saturday to give Pine Bluff royal battle. Several new men have entered school, is tho news from Fordyc.a. and They are coming up to do soma damage, and to get re- venge for their defeat the first game of the season. Thy will be watched Saturday to see if they can come back. Such thing can happen.
